Dai Yuxin says

Xueyan brought a plate of brightly colored grapes and said with a smile: "Girl try it, this is just sent by Ashan." Zijuan also comforted: "That's right, the girl wants to eat more, but it's not worth it if she gets angry. .”

Daiyu picked up a grape and put it in her mouth, she said to herself: "This Ah Shan is really capable, how can he get such a thing at this time?"

Xueyan replied with a smile: "I also asked him how he got it. He said that he knew someone who built a big cellar in the mountains and packed fresh vegetables and fruits in it. When I want to eat, but I take it out as if I just picked it. I don’t know why that person is going back to his hometown in the northwest on New Year’s Eve. He needs a sum of money urgently. Ah Shan thinks that the price is not high, so he decides to take out the forest, the cellar, and even the cellar. All the things collected in the house were bought under the name of the girl. Girl, look, this is the land deed just sent by Ah Shan. He is afraid that the girl will blame him, so he is standing in the small room waiting for the girl to punish him."

Daiyu took the title deed and looked at it, nodded happily and said with a smile: "Ah Shan is really capable, call him in quickly."

A Shan followed the snow geese into the house, saw Daiyu, and hurriedly knelt down to say hello.Daiyu stepped forward to help A-Shan with her own hands, and said softly with a smile, "A-Shan, we are all a family, so don't just kneel down. You have done a good job in this matter. From now on, you are my housekeeper. I moved to Yu From now on in the garden, there will be azaleas and snow geese in the garden, and you will have to worry about the outside affairs." Ah Shan was so moved that he was at a loss, thinking that the crippled man, whom the world would look at sideways, would now be valued so much by the little fairy.What is the grace of knowing you, this is the grace of knowing you!Even if I die, I will not be able to repay the little fairy's great kindness!Ah Shan rubbed his clothes with both hands, and said excitedly incoherently: "This is what a slave should do. It's just that the matter is urgent and I failed to tell the girl in advance. The crime should be punished."

"No punishment, no punishment. Stay and have dinner together at noon." Daiyu sincerely asked Ah Shan to stay.From the bottom of her heart, she felt that the ugly-looking Ah Shan was more amiable and trustworthy than those pious people in Jia's mansion.

Ah Shan shook his hands and continued: "No, no. There are many people with ulterior motives in Jia's mansion, just wait for the girl to return to his home. On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, craftsmen come to Yuyuan to work, and Ah Shan will make plans when he returns, and strive to pick them up as soon as possible. Girl go home."

Daiyu went back into the inner room and took out a banknote and handed it to him, saying: "Your words are very true. This is 1000 taels of silver. You can use it as you see fit." Ah Shan hastily declined: "No, no. Buy a mountain forest I only spent more than 400 taels of silver, and I still have a lot of silver here, which is enough to repair the Jade Garden and add furniture."

Daiyu smiled and said: "I know you will plan and count carefully, and it will be more convenient to do things with more money in your hand."

As soon as A Shan took the silver ticket and left the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Li Wan and Tan Chun came with their maids.Seeing Putao, Tanchun exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, why does Sister Lin have such a rare thing?"

Daiyu smiled and did not answer, but enthusiastically gave up her seat and called Zijuan to serve tea.

Li Wan was also surprised when he saw it, in this cold winter season, when the door is closed with ice and snow, such bright fruits are not only expensive, but also difficult to buy even if they have money.Daiyu is really a bit unusual at such a young age.I thought to myself: I am a young widow, and my natal family has no money or power.Lan'er said that he was the eldest grandson of Jia's family. Compared with Baoyu, he was much neglected.I can't protect Daiyu, but I can't see her hurt either.So he laughed and said: "Speaking of which, this kind of fruit is nothing, but seeing it at this time is indeed a rare thing. If someone sees it, I don't know what to chew." Tan Chun was stunned and said : "Sister-in-law is right. There have been a lot of rumors in the mansion recently, and I have heard some. I really don't know who has provoked a pure and kind person like Sister Lin? It's not far." As he spoke, tears flowed down his face.

Zijuan hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, and persuaded: "Look at what the third girl said, there are empresses in Jia's palace, and masters in the court. The family is big and the business is big. No one in the capital knows, who doesn't know? How can you say that you lose? Third Miss, don't be sad." Tanchun took the veil, tried to tear up and said: "What do you know? Only a family in decline can be so suspicious, bewitching people with evil words, making people's hearts turn away and panic. If I were a man, I left here a long time ago and went to other places, even if I can't achieve a career and do nothing for a lifetime, it's more interesting than watching chickens, ducks and geese fighting here all day long."

Sitting there, Li Wan also said with a worried face: "Among all the sisters, I have long seen that the third sister's mentality is really different from ordinary girls. When I was a girl at home, my mother often said that I couldn't eat it." I'm poor, I don't have enough money, and I don't know how to calculate. I'm poor. Although I don't manage the financial management, I coldly see that there are few earners and many spenders in this house, and I can't make ends meet. I spend a lot of time talking about ostentation and suffering. My life is over, but I still have Lan Er, he is so young, I am really worried."

Tanchun's tears welled up again, and he choked up and said: "Sister-in-law, you and I are both people in this house who are not powerful, what's the use of thinking? I advise you to take precautions now, for Lan'er's future, in your heart I have to keep some points." Li Wan lowered his head and thought for a while in silence, then raised his head and said, "Your elder brother is gone, what can we orphans and widows do? If my wife finds out, why don't you eat me alive?"

Daiyu picked up the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "It depends on how you do it. My sister-in-law will use the monthly savings she saved to quietly ask her family to help you buy a few houses near the academy. You can buy some houses when you are free." Renting it to students who come to Beijing for scientific examinations, collecting some rent is better than putting money in a box for nothing. If, in case something happens, you can get money if you sell it, and you can use it yourself if you don’t sell it. Wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds? If you are afraid that your wife will find out, you can simply hide the deed in the safest place of your mother's house." Li Wan nodded in praise and said, "I never thought that my sister, who is weak in her boudoir, would have such an idea. Baoyu didn't marry you, it's really Jiamen Unfortunately!" Daiyu blushed, and said angrily and coyly, "I'm really planning for my sister-in-law, but my sister-in-law came to make fun of me, so I won't tell you."

Li Wan got up and put his arms around Daiyu, and said with a smile, "Good sister, please don't be angry, I'm telling the truth." Sitting there, Tanchun stared at Daiyu in a daze, always thinking that he was a man of the world. , I didn't expect Daiyu to be much stronger than herself.People say it casually, it is a good idea to retreat bravely.Everyone in the mansion said that Baochai was a good family manager and financial manager. Now it seems that she must be matched with Daiyu. It is really difficult for the light of fireflies to compete with the bright moon.
