Dai Yuxin says

Zijuan and Xueyan were really exhausted these two days, Xueyan walked to the door carrying the porridge, looked at the porridge in her hand, and thought that Daiyu would recover, her body was still weak and needed nourishment.He hesitated whether to tell Daiyu that the Xiaoxiang Pavilion only had a few ingredients for porridge.Half a month ago, Zijuan really had no other choice, so she secretly went to Ping'er and wanted to advance the girl's monthly payment for two months.After Ping'er reported to Wang Xifeng, she said that there was no precedent for the monthly payment of money in advance, and it was not a good idea. Second Mistress Lian gave the girl five taels for nothing.Zijuan came back with tears all the way, and told Xueyan that the five liang of silver was closed-door silver.In the past, the old lady could still think that Daiyu was not in good health and needed more money, so she would send people to send some broken silver and copper coins to subsidize it, but she seemed to have forgotten this in the past two months.Zijuan quietly went to Yuanyang to inquire, and Yuanyang said that the old lady was only busy with Baoyu's marriage these days, and her heart for the girl was much weaker.She also found an opportunity to help the girl mention it twice in front of the old lady. The old lady always showed displeasure, saying that if the girl continued to be so squeamish, if she married in the future, her mother-in-law would not like it.Zijuan was really helpless, and discussed with Xueyan to pawn a few hairpins that the girl didn't often use before buying back the porridge ingredients.Otherwise, the girl wouldn't even be able to drink porridge at this time.

"Is it Xueyan?" Daiyu's question came from the room, Xueyan swallowed her grief and decided not to tell the girl for now, lest she wake up and cause trouble again.Busily put on a smile and went in to serve Daiyu after finishing the porridge, and slept with Zijuan until noon.

Zijuan woke up suddenly in her sleep, thinking that Daiyu had just woken up, how could there be no one around to serve her?She turned over in a panic and got out of bed, rubbing her eyes to see Daiyu, and said angrily, "I'm really useless, I didn't expect to sleep until now, damn it! Are you hungry, girl? I'll get some food now." .”

Daiyu lay there, with a happy smile in her eyes, and said softly, "The porridge made by Xueyan is very good. I ate a lot, and I'm not hungry at all. Didn't anyone bring the lunch?" Hong nodded slightly and said: "Manpower is needed for the work over there. No one has delivered food for several days. Xueyan and I went to pick it up, and it's nothing." She strongly controlled her grief and anger, turned around and left.

Not long after, Zijuan came back with a lunch box and said sadly to Daiyu: "I'm a bit late today, and I only brought these few side dishes and rice. The girl can make do with a bite, and I'll go right away." Let's make porridge."

Xueyan came in, opened the lid of the food box with sleepy eyes, glanced at it and said angrily: "How long is it, why is it so late? Those people are all dog-eyed." Then he said angrily: "I'll go Looking for the old lady, is this food eaten by a girl? The Xiren in Baoyu’s room eats better than this, is it possible that our girl is not as good as a girl?”

Zijuan pulled Xueyan over and persuaded: "Grandma, the girl is in better health, why are you making trouble? If the old lady still loves the girl as much as before, will the slaves dare to do this? There are some things I don't want to say, I'm just afraid that the girl will be annoyed when she hears this, and she will be so angry that she will win the hearts of those people."

Daiyu slowly sat up from the bed, looked at Zijuan and Xueyan and said lightly: "Didn't I tell you all, is my health better? I was not hungry at all, and if you two quarreled, I would still eat." I feel like eating some."

Zijuan waited for Daiyu to wash and wash up, and Xueyan pouted and put the food on the table.

The three of them finished their meal without interest, Daiyu put down her chopsticks and ordered: "From now on, you should hurry up and sort out the things I brought from the south, and pack up the things that can be taken away, and the things that cannot be taken away." It doesn’t matter whether you give it away or throw it away. In short, you should tidy it up as soon as possible.”

Xueyan fluttered her big eyes and asked excitedly, "Miss, are we leaving?"

Daiyu didn't answer directly, but just asked with a smile: "Do you want to go?"

Xueyan replied without thinking: "I think, even in my dreams, I want to leave here with the girl."

Daiyu quietly looked at this maid who had served her since she was a child, feeling deeply moved.Xueyan is two years older than herself, and is 14 years old this year.When she was in the Lin Mansion, she was a girl who loved to talk and laugh, and often she could hear her laughter like silver bells without seeing her.Her father sometimes called her Little Magpie, and her mother called her Xiaoxian.When I came to Jia's house, I never heard her cheerful laughter again.

Zijuan broke the silence and said: "Who doesn't want to leave here? It's just that the girl is still young, and there are no direct relatives in her hometown. Where do you go when you leave here? The world is as black as crows. I'm afraid that I will go out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth."

After hearing Zijuan's words, Daiyu nodded and smiled, "How about we go out and live by ourselves?"

Zijuan pondered: "It's good to be able to go out and live by yourself. It's just that we are all girls..."

Xueyan didn't wait for Zijuan to finish, and then said: "What's the matter with the girl? At the feet of the Son of Heaven, the world is bright and bright, so there is no way for a girl to survive?"
