Dai Yuxin says

"Maybe the third girl is here?" Xue Yan straightened her clothes and ran to open the door with a smile.

But Baochai came in with a group of attackers.

Daiyu came to the door and greeted her with a smile: "So it's Bao Er's sister-in-law who came, and she was far away to welcome her. It's a sin, a sin."

"Well, you naughty girl, it's snowing so much, I'm here to see you, quickly bring out your good tea to entertain me." Baochai was dressed in bright red, with dazzling gold and jewels on her head, looking like a new wife.Daiyu giggled and said, "Second sister-in-law, you are so lucky to be dressed like this, it dazzles my sister's eyes."

Baochai smiled reservedly and said, "You know me, but you don't like to wear these vulgar things. My wife said that a young daughter-in-law should not be as casual as a girl, but should dress appropriately." As she said, she casually took Daiyu's arm , a pair of host style, defiantly enter the room.Entering the bedroom, she sat down on the edge of Daiyu's bed, looked at Daiyu and said with a smile: "These days, I have finally finished some things. In two days, it will be New Year's Eve. I will find time to come and see you today. By the way, I'll bring you some sweet-scented osmanthus crisps, this is from the south, I know you love this." Xiren hurriedly handed the paper bag in his hand to Zicuckoo, and flattered him with a showy look: "This is The ones in our concubine’s shop are for the ladies in the palace, and you can’t buy them with money outside. Our grandma gave some to the old ladies and wives as snacks for the New Year, and left a portion for Miss Lin.”

Daiyu smiled lightly, and before she could speak, the quick-talking Xueyan said to Xiren: "This crispy candy is boring to look at, and we girls don't like to eat such things." Daiyu smiled He reprimanded: "You little hoof, how can you talk like that? Hurry up and make tea and serve snacks to entertain guests."

Zijuan came over with a tray, put a few plates full of snacks on the kang table, and greeted: "Second Grandma Bao, our girl doesn't have anything good to entertain you. These are some creamy egg tarts and jam buns made by Europeans. , try and possibly enter it?"

Baochai reached out and picked up a small star-shaped bun the size of a walnut. He opened his small mouth and took a bite. Where is it from? Yinger, remember to tell the steward tomorrow to ask the Europa man to come to the mansion to do more.” Zijuan was stunned, and when Ah Shan sent it, he only said that it was made by the Europa man, not that Where are the Europas from?

Xueyan immediately lied and said: "It is the gatekeeper of my Yuyuan. Because he is short and small, and has a hunchback, sister Zijuan calls him Europa. Second Grandma Bao may be disappointed. Our servants of the Lin family, apart from our master I don’t want to listen to other people’s commands.” Baochai laughed and said, “It’s been a three-day farewell, and I’ve seen them with admiration. I didn’t expect Zijuan Xueyan to become articulate.”

Daiyu sat there, uncharacteristically, unwilling to engage in any more verbal disputes with Baochai, but silently, smiling, watching her talk to Xueyan.Baochai seemed to feel something was wrong, took Daiyu's hand, stroked it and said with a smile, "Look, you've lost weight again. Tell me, what do you want to eat? I'll ask someone to bring it for you." Daiyu smiled and said, "Thank you." Second sister-in-law Bao, I will let Zijuan and Xueyan figure out what I want to eat, so don't bother second sister-in-law."

Baochai originally wanted to come over to look at the down-and-out Daiyu, but she didn't expect Daiyu to live a leisurely and nourishing life, and her little face also turned red.She couldn't sit still anymore, she just said a few perfunctory words, and hurried away with Xiren and other maids and mother-in-law.

After Baochai left, Xueyan said triumphantly: "Look at that villain's face, I won't let her."

Daiyu said slowly: "In the past, I would rather be a piece of jade than a tile, and I would hate those filthy ones most. What I say and do is straightforward, but the result is not only useless, but also makes people see me through, and makes people laugh at me secretly. Recently, I've always wondered why good people don't live long, and bad people live thousands of years. The fundamental reason is that good people are open-minded, open-minded, and don't know how to protect themselves. It will take a few months for Yuyuan to be renovated, which means we still have to live here A period of time. As the saying goes: It is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain. We must also learn to be able to stretch and bend, and keep a low profile in everything, so that they will be less guarded against us, so that we can be fully sure of winning when we do things.”

Zijuan brought a bowl of chicken soup to Daiyu, smiled lightly and said, "Girl, I've skimmed off all the oil on it, you can drink a little to warm your body. We don't have the same knowledge as those villains, just treat them as monkey tricks." That's it."

Baochai went back with a large group of Xiren Yinger sullenly. When he entered the room, he saw Baoyu sitting there, staring at the Jiulianhuan in his hand. Seeing Baochai enter the room, he was indifferent.Baochai stepped forward and said with a smile, "Why are you back so early?"

Baoyu lowered his head and fiddled with the Jiulianhuan in his hand, as if he didn't hear Baochai's words.

In front of so many girls, Baochai couldn't bear to be treated so coldly. She stretched out her hand to touch the Jiu Lianhuan and said, "What a good thing, such a grown-up still plays with this child's thing. The master and wife know about it, and they want to talk about you again." Baoyu hurriedly took Jiu Lianhuan behind him, and said impatiently: "Don't worry about it." Standing up, he put Jiu Lianhuan in a brocade box beside him, and shouted: "Xi Ren, put this away for me."

Xiren came over with a smile, picked up the box and went out.

Baoyu walked to the bed with a long sigh, clasped his hands behind his head, lay down on his back, and exhaled a series of long breaths.

Baochai walked out of the house angrily, Xiren came over and whispered, "Grandma don't pay attention to him, just let him lie down for a while. That thing was something he and Miss Lin used to play with when they were young, and somehow he found it again." After hearing this, Ying'er turned her eyes to look at Xiren, and said sarcastically, "Sister Xiren is a worm in the second master's stomach, and knows everything. From now on, our grandma will rely on her sister to give advice, so as not to make mistakes."

Xiren was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Sister Ying'er was joking, I and my sister both serve grandma."

Ying'er sneered and said, "How dare I be like sister Xiren, I'm just a little girl who serves grandma, unlike my sister who comes out of the old lady's house, the wife is the most trustworthy, caring with the second master, and takes two liang of silver for one A man who strings money." Baochai opened her almond-shaped eyes and shouted angrily, "Ying'er, chew maggots again, and I'll drive you back to Lixiangyuan." Ying'er turned her face away, curled her lips at the attacker, and said in a low voice: "Ying'er dare not, please don't drive me away."

Someone came from Jia's mother's room to ask Baoyu and his wife to come over for dinner. Baochai entered the room and pushed Baoyu, "The old lady wants us to go over for dinner. Get up quickly." Baoyu turned around reluctantly and said annoyedly, "I don't want to eat. You go by yourself." Baochai froze in front of the bed, with tears rolling in her eyes, she forced a smile and said, "If you don't want to eat, you have to make a show. Otherwise, the old lady feels uneasy again. Get up and go to meet the scene." , just treat it as a filial old lady."

During the meal, Mother Jia saw Baoyu sitting there listlessly, and asked, "Why do you eat so little and stop eating?" Baoyu forced a smile and said, "I ate some fruits before I came here, and my stomach is full. My ancestor, sister Lin is very happy." I haven't come to eat for a long time, are you sick again? I want to see her."

"Your sister's illness is better, but her body is still very weak. In this cold weather, I want her to recuperate indoors, and the maids will make her whatever she wants to eat." Jiamu looked at Baoyu kindly, and said gently .

Mrs. Wang reprimanded her severely: "Baoyu, you are married, why do you still want to see the eldest girl? After all, her surname is Lin, she is not a girl from our Jia family, she is different from the third and fourth girls. Just save me worry, study hard, get a good grade in the exam next year, and let the old lady dote on you." Baoyu was scolded, his face turned pale, and he drooped his head, like a young rooster with plague.

Mother Jia couldn't bear to see it, and comforted her: "Don't worry about your sister's affairs. You just study well, get a good grade in the exam next year, and give me a great-grandson. I promise to let you get what you want." Baoyu remembered As Baochai said before, as long as Baochai gave birth to a son, Jia's mother and wife were happy, and he would marry Daiyu.Baoyu believed it was true, her eyes lit up, and she asked earnestly, "Old Ancestor, are you serious?" Jia Mu patted his shoulder for fear, and said with a smile, "Can this still be false? If you can do it, good things come in pairs." As everyone knows, Mother Jia, who has cultivated to become a master, planted a foreshadowing here. This good thing is in pairs, fame and great-grandson, isn't it a great good thing?

Baoyu nodded and smiled and said, "Please don't worry, my ancestors. I will go back tonight and read a book. Next spring, I promise to bring you back with fame." Sister Feng added with a smile: "Sister Bao is going to give birth to a fat boy. Still waiting to hold a great-grandson." Baochai's face was full of smiles, she looked very shy, she lowered her head quietly, and couldn't help laughing to herself.
