The Warm Jade of the Red Chamber

After Dr. Sun showed it to Zhuang Yu, he prescribed medicine to reduce the fever. Because the excuse was that Daiyu was sick, Daiyu had to stay in the room and pretend to be sick. Jia Min, Lin Ji, and Lin Yu were there. , and entrusted them all to Madam Zheng.

Lin Ji heard that Daiyu was ill, so she hurried over to visit her.

Daiyu was sick in bed, and Lin Ji was getting older, so there was no reason for her to go straight into the inner room to visit her, so she only greeted her a few times outside.Lin Xi and Danju waited inside, then dismissed the others, Lin Ji was wondering, but asked Lin Xi to give him a wink, and led him to the inner room.

This time, even Lin Ji was very surprised. He saw that his sister who was supposed to be sick in bed was sitting on the edge of the bed feeding someone medicine, but the person being fed should be far away in the sky. Zhuang Yu.

"Brother-in-law?" Lin Ji shouted in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Zhuang Yu finished drinking the medicine in Daiyu's hand, turned his head and glanced at Lin Ji, and said, "Sit down."

Zhuang Yu gave Lin Ji a look, inexplicably feeling a lot of pressure, so she didn't ask any more questions, and obediently found a stool and sat down.He also knew that in the past, he was always able to fight against this brother-in-law, but it was because Zhuang Yu looked at Daiyu's face and indulged him. If he really wanted to be serious, he really didn't dare to disobey him too much.Especially this time, with the help of Zhuang Yu, I avoided a calculation that could almost ruin my future, which can be regarded as a great favor from him.

Before Lin Ji came, Daiyu and Zhuang Yu had already briefed each other on what had happened during these days.Zhuang Yu hadn't had time to elaborate on the specific situation, and as long as Daiyu knew that Lin Hai was safe and well taken care of and protected, she was in no hurry to inquire about other matters.Zhuang Yu also decided to see Lin Ji after hearing Daiyu's report that Lin Ji was going to join the army.

Zhuang Yu and Lin Ji met each other mostly in the outer room, not in the inner courtyard of the back house. Moreover, Lin Ji always likes to make trouble for Zhuang Yu, so the Lin Ji that Zhuang Yu saw was far from the one he met with Jia Min and Dai. The obedient and obedient behavior shown in front of Yu.It's not that Lin Ji is pretending in front of Jia Min and Daiyu, it's just that Lin Ji, who has not seen many dark sides because of his poor health and being pampered since childhood, is always a little naive and ignorant.But after being thrown into the military camp by Zhuang Yu to hone it a few times, Zhuang Yu was surprised to find that Lin Ji still had a toughness in his bones, a kind of vigor that was very suitable for conquest on the battlefield. At that time, Zhuang Yu Then he began to think about whether to kidnap this brother-in-law to join the army, but Lin Ji made his own decision before he could even think about it.That's fine, since Lin Ji asked for it on his own initiative, when he suffers in the future, he won't be ashamed to say give up.

It is precisely because of this that Zhuang Yu will not think that Lin Ji made this decision purely to avoid Jia Min and Lin Yu like Dai Yu did, but he is happy to see it come true.

Therefore, Zhuang Yu thought that if he stayed at the Lin family, there would always be a few people to cover him, so that Lin Ji would know about it, so he could take the opportunity to train him.Anyway, put a few of his own people around Lin Ji, so there will be no trouble.

After feeding Zhuang Yu and drinking the medicine, Daiyu immediately got up and sat on a chair farther than Lin Ji was sitting, with a cold face, without even looking at Zhuang Yu.

Lin Ji was a little puzzled, but looking at Zhuang Yu's embarrassed and depressed expression, he still habitually felt gloating.

Zhuang Yu saw it, put away his depressed expression, grinned at Lin Ji, and said, "Come here, tell me, how does it feel to investigate the truth by yourself?"

Lin Ji lowered his head, he didn't want to tell Zhuang Yu such a shameful thing.

Zhuang Yu rolled his eyes and said, "I've handed everything over to you, why don't you listen to the process? Do you have to let me ask others?"

Lin Ji also knew that borrowing Zhuang Yu's manpower naturally meant that he couldn't hide it from Zhuang Yu, and Zhuang Yu would not be like Daiyu, pity him and couldn't bear to ask him.Lin Ji had no choice but to tell Zhuang Yu the process of his investigation again in depression.

When Zhuang Yu heard this, he sneered and asked, "You stopped investigating here? Who is behind the ancient building, you don't want to know?"

Lin Ji lowered his head in shame, and said, "I also thought about checking, but I really can't find out."

After hearing this, Zhuang Yu didn't make things difficult for him. Before this incident, Zhuang Yu was still a naive child who didn't know suffering, and it's pretty good to be able to do what he is now.But since he already knew about this matter, it was like a stick in his throat, and he couldn't let it go.

"It seems that this matter is not just as simple as provoking the relationship between you and your mother-in-law. You must not let it go. Next, I will send someone to take over. You can watch and learn from the sidelines. In the future, if you really want to When you enter the barracks, you should learn the art of war for your master. The outcome of a war is not only determined by courage, but also by strategies and means. Do you understand?"

Listening to Zhuang Yu's words, Lin Ji is obviously willing to pave a way for him to join the army. Not to mention that Lin Ji himself is worried about the black hand behind the scenes, even if he really doesn't care, it is impossible for him to refuse Zhuang Yu. For his instructions and arrangements.

Lin Ji nodded repeatedly, expressing that he would be obedient.

Zhuang Yu was satisfied, looked up at Lin Xi, and said, "Lin Xi, take this kid to see your brother, but after throwing him to your brother, you will come back and guard Dai'er. I only believe in Dan here." Tangerine and you."

"Yes." Lin Qi replied quietly.

Lin Ji looked at Lin Qi in surprise, but wisely didn't ask any questions.

After sending Lin Ji away, Zhuang Yu looked at Daiyu still sitting far away and did not look at him, feeling a little helpless. To be honest, it was indeed his crooked idea to take the opportunity to get close to his little wife, but today's matter, You really can't blame him, can you?There's nothing he can do if the clothes don't fit, right?

No matter how much Zhuang Yu didn't take the fever seriously, he was tired after talking to Lin Ji for so long. After coughing twice, his voice became a little hoarse, and he said aggrievedly, "Dai'er, I have a terrible headache. .”

Daiyu was so angry that she didn't go to see him, but she couldn't help being a little worried. She had a fever before, and she knew how uncomfortable it was when she had a fever. Seeing Zhuang Yu talking to Lin Ji like nothing happened, she had been secretly looking at him all the time. , I was afraid that he was holding on, so she also noticed the abnormal blush on Zhuang Yu's face, she was already restless, but now she heard Zhuang Yu's headache, she couldn't bear it anymore, a little awkward but very fast He walked up to Zhuang Yu's side without hesitation, and said, "What's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow, you should lie down and rest quickly."

Zhuang Yu looked at Daiyu stubbornly, and asked, "What about you? Where do you sleep?"

Daiyu blushed, turned away her gaze, and said coyly, "Danju and I can just squeeze together on the couch outside."

"No." Zhuang Yu resolutely vetoed it, "I'll just go to sleep on the couch, and you sleep on the bed." How could a girl who was spoiled since she was a child be willing to make her feel a little bit wronged?What's more, even if you are injured while marching and fighting, you have to learn to rest on horseback, let alone in the boudoir of your beloved little daughter-in-law?Of course, if it wasn't for his fever and dizziness, he might not be able to sleep.

Daiyu frowned and said, "How is this possible? You are still sick, and if you don't rest well, how can you recover?"

Not to be outdone, Zhuang Yu said, "How big is the couch outside? How can you and Danju squeeze together? If you don't rest well and are really sick, who can come forward to take care of the affairs of this mansion? The members of the Lin family are all far away. As for Suzhou, it’s not unreasonable to ask your grandmother to intervene at that time. There is also Danju, who I can trust in this mansion, only Danju and Lin Qi. If Danju didn’t rest well , how to take care of you, how can I help me?"

Zhuang Yu's words really touched Daiyu's soft spot. Daiyu already held great malice towards the Jia family and didn't intend to give them face. Anyway, in recent years, even Jia Min has not asked her to get close Jia's house.With Daiyu in town, even if the Jia family is not invited to visit, forgive the Jia family and dare not make irresponsible remarks; however, if Daiyu is ill, the Jia family may come to Lin's mansion under the pretext of visiting the sick, and then they don't know what to do. What happens.Especially now that Zhuang Yu is still at Lin's house, since he sneaked back secretly, he has his own arrangements and plans. The situation is really sensitive, and Daiyu doesn't want to take the slightest risk of exposing Zhuang Yu.

"Then...then let Danju lay a mattress on the recliner. I'll sleep on the recliner. I'm small, so it's fine to sleep on the recliner." Thinking, Daiyu took a step back, "If this is the case, you If you still don't agree, you can only let Danju come in and sleep on the footrest, and I will go to sleep outside."

Zhuang Yu looked at Daiyu's stubborn face, and he also knew that his little daughter-in-law would not listen to anyone if she was stubborn, so she could only compromise.He didn't want his daughter-in-law to sleep in the outer room, but asked a maid to share the room with him. It wasn't that he didn't trust Danju, nor was he so narcissistic that he thought Danju might want to seduce him, but he kept his own Original heart, the original wish of a couple for a lifetime, since it is unintentional, don't give anyone the illusion or hope that they may have. This is not only good for yourself, but also good for others. After all, the human heart is the most difficult thing to withstand scrutiny .

However, how could Zhuang Yu endure that he was sleeping comfortably on the bed while Daiyu curled up on the recliner?Even if, as Daiyu said, the reclining chair was big enough for her, it seemed cramped for him.

After a light sleep for a while, Zhuang Yu forced himself to wake up with amazing willpower, and listened carefully to Daiyu's breathing, which was peaceful and even, obviously falling asleep.Zhuang Yu got up quietly, walked to the reclining chair, carefully picked up Daiyu, and put her on the bed.

She gently covered Daiyu with a thin quilt, and it was still a little cool after the rainy night.Sitting by the bed, with the help of the weak candlelight, Zhuang Yu quietly watched Daiyu's sleeping face, his fingers involuntarily wanted to touch it.But found that Daiyu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and even her face seemed to be slowly turning crimson.

Zhuang Yu was startled, and then wanted to laugh. It seems that his little daughter-in-law was woken up by him, but she wanted to pretend to be asleep because of shyness.How to punish the little daughter-in-law who wanted to cheat him?

Zhuang Yu's raised finger did not land on Daiyu's face in the end, but with a sense of mischief, it lightly brushed across Daiyu's lips, and then seemed to have not noticed that Daiyu turned red all of a sudden The face, the eyelashes that trembled so much that they couldn't be ignored, and the palms that were suddenly clenched, Shi Shi suddenly walked to the recliner and fell asleep.
