The Lin An Bo Mansion was gone.

The people in the capital only sighed for a moment,

They turned their heads and stopped talking about this matter.

After all, the Lin An Bo Mansion only had themselves to blame for being involved in the Huai and Huai cases.

What good could they get? It was already a great mercy that they did not lose their lives.

Midsummer.

The Huai and Huai cases came to an end.

Lin An Bo stripped him of his title and demoted him to a commoner. All the wealth in the mansion was confiscated and returned to the national treasury.

Seeing that Lin An Bo's only daughter was already married,

He did not pursue the matter and did not even touch her dowry.

This move naturally won the support of many people,

They said that it was the fortune of our dynasty to be benevolent.

Ling Yue and Baoyu returned to Rongguo Province.

Rongguo Province naturally knew about this news. The first to change their expressions were Lady Jia and Lady Wang.

Without a doubt, these two people loved Baoyu the most in the mansion.

Although they had many disagreements..,

The only thing that they agreed on was that they hoped that Baoyu would marry a good girl who was worthy of him.

If it was said that Ling Yue was good, then Ling Yue's heart was cold.

No matter how she looked at her, she felt that this daughter-in-law had lowered her level.

In the end, Ling Yue was only relying on the power of the Lin An Bo Mansion.

She was arrogant and domineering.

It wasn't until today that she truly saw it. Outside the Lin An Bo Mansion.

How terrifying was it?

When Ling Yue returned to Rongguo Province, she was scared sick.

Lady Wang heard that the Lin An Bo Mansion was gone.

She felt uneasy.

She was afraid that she had married a jinx for Baoyu.

Therefore, she was very unhappy.

She only sent someone to invite a doctor, but she did not personally go to see him.

Daiyu also knew about this news.

When Xue Yan and Daiyu talked about this matter, they both breathed a sigh of relief. "In the end, we can't compare to the Marquis's family. I originally thought that since Ling Yue always came to make trouble for the young lady, even with Mama Li blocking her, it would still be a troublesome matter. But now, let's see how she will put on airs in the future."

Daiyu pursed his lips.

It was just as He Shen had said.

Seeing that Daiyu didn't respond, Xue Yan stuck out her tongue, picked up the cold tea on the table, and went out to get hot water.

A few more days passed.

The matter of Lin An Bo's residence had completely died down in the capital.

Finally, Ling Yue stepped out of the door.

Perhaps it was because she was sick, but Ling Yue's dressing style was much lighter.

She no longer had the domineering air of the past, nor did she have the loveliness of a young girl. She looked as dry as a piece of white cloth.

When Daiyu went to pay his respects to Mother Jia, he happened to bump into her in the corridor.

Ling Yue stopped in her tracks, and her gaze fell deeply on Daiyu.

"Miss Lin is so happy." Ling Yue smiled mockingly, the corners of her eyes sharp.

Daiyu didn't even bother to look at her.

In the past, she didn't take Ling Yue seriously, and in the future, she wouldn't take Ling Yue seriously either.

Ling Yue suddenly changed her tone, and said in a low voice, "He's so heartless. Miss Lin, aren't you afraid? If a man like him were to treat you as heartless in the future …" Ling Yue chuckled, "At that time, would Miss Lin be able to take it?"

As they spoke, Baoyu slowly walked over from the other end of the corridor.

Baoyu suddenly saw Daiyu's figure, and his feet paused, then he quickened his pace.

By the time Ling Yue finished speaking, Baoyu had already arrived in front of her.

Daiyu stared at Baoyu for a moment, and couldn't help but chuckle. "Then what kind of man do you think is good? A man who is gentle and affectionate to everyone. If he treats you well today, wouldn't he treat others even better tomorrow?

My preferences aren't the same as yours, so I think he's good the way he is.

If you like affectionate men, then don't worry about keeping them. "

Baoyu could faintly tell that Sister Lin's words were stabbing at him.

Baoyu's face immediately flushed red, and he couldn't help but say, "Sister Lin, I …"

Ling Yue obviously realized this as well.

Didn't Daiyu's words mean that she could only like Jia Baoyu?

Ling Yue's expression changed slightly, and she opened her mouth to speak again.

Daiyu turned to Xue Yan and said, "Today's not a good day. Let's go back first."

Xue Yan hurriedly followed Daiyu out.

Ling Yue's expression became even uglier.

When she turned her head, she saw that Baoyu was still staring blankly at her back, and she felt a dull pain in her heart.

When they were far away, Xue Yan pursed her lips and said, "This second young mistress really doesn't take any lessons. Now that the Lin An Bo Estate is gone, she still wants to bully others."

After saying this, Xue Yan paused, and then muttered in a low voice, "I also don't think that Assistant Minister He is a heartless person.

It was the Lin An Bo Estate's mistake, so they should bear the consequences themselves.

It's not like Assistant Minister He is taking personal revenge.

If Assistant Minister He is really like Bao Er Ye, treating everyone gently and affectionately, afraid of this pain, afraid of that person crying, then he wouldn't be Assistant Minister He.

He wouldn't be liked by the young lady. "

Daiyu finally laughed out loud. "Who told you that I like her?"

"Look, of course you can see that the young lady is different from when she sees Assistant Minister He."

Is that so?

Daiyu lowered his head and thought carefully.

He couldn't remember anything else.

But a trace of longing faintly appeared in his heart.

He was afraid that he would be busy for a while.

He didn't know when he would be able to see her again.

After Daiyu returned to his courtyard, he didn't go out much.

But there was a constant stream of news coming back.

It wasn't something to be proud of.

It was just that Ling Yue suffered, and every day, she would cause trouble for Baoyu's maidservants.

When Lady Wang found out, she turned a blind eye. She didn't like those enchanting maidservants to begin with.

Baoyu, on the other hand, wouldn't let it go, and always quarreled with Ling Yue, which made people laugh at them.

Thus, every day, Daiyu would either be playing with Three Springs and the others, or she would be cooped up in her room reading a book, or she would listen to Xue Yan pick up the jokes in Baoyu's room and tell them to Daiyu.

Daiyu was fine.

On the other hand, Zi Juan would always talk to Xue Yan, and the two of them would hug and laugh together.

In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.

"Is Younger Sister here?" Baochai's voice sounded outside the door.

Daiyu, who was lying on the chaise lounge and resting, got up and leaned half of his body out to take a look. "Bao Jiejie, why are you here?"

Because he was resting, Daiyu didn't comb his hair and just let it fall messily.

Baochai stepped through the door and saw Daiyu's appearance. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

No wonder Sister Lin was liked by so many people.

Her combed hair was a kind of beauty.

Her messy hair was also a kind of beauty.

Baochai stopped sighing and turned his head to point at the boxes that the strong servants were carrying in. He said, "That day, didn't you say that you were going to fix Younger Sister's windows?"

"I was just joking. Bao Jiejie actually took it seriously." Daiyu was pleasantly surprised. He hurriedly got up and walked on the floor in his thin shoes.

"Of course it can't be taken as a joke."

The servants packed up the Qing Rong muslin and came out. They were really going to fix Daiyu's windows.

At this moment, the sound of noisy footsteps suddenly came from outside.

The servant girl Chunxian quickly walked in. "Young Miss, the people in front are here to deliver something."

Although Chunxian's words were vague, everyone knew where this thing came from.

Baochai called for the servants to stop and accompanied Daiyu out to take a look.

The servant women and manservants of the Jia Zheng Courtyard carried several chests into the courtyard.

The one walking in front was a young girl.

That girl didn't look like she was from Rongguo Province.

"Miss Lin, Young Miss Bao." That servant girl was smart. She recognized the two people at a glance and hurriedly greeted them respectfully.

After she finished speaking, she turned around and pointed at the boxes behind her. "Master was worried that Miss Lin's room would be stuffy and stuffy during the summer. Master asked this servant to deliver a box of Shan Si gauze. He said that he wanted to use it to fix Miss Lin's windows."

Baochai was slightly dumbfounded. He immediately smiled and said, "What a coincidence today."

Daiyu's heart was also a bit complicated. She completely didn't expect that He Shen would be so attentive. He even noticed this.

Baochai smiled again and said, "If that's the case, why don't you use mine to make muslin curtains for Sister Lin?

How can I fight with Assistant Minister He for it? "

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled. "Okay."

Thus, that servant girl ordered the servants to carry the box of Shan Si gauze inside.

Zi Juan used to serve Mother Jia in the past, so her horizons were naturally broader than ordinary servant girls. At this moment, she looked at the box and couldn't help but sigh. "Assistant Minister He is so generous. He used Shan Si gauze to fix the windows. Shan Si gauze was said to be used to make dresses for princesses during the Sui and Tang dynasties."

Daiyu also nodded. "Someone once said that Shan Si gauze floated like the clouds and was as bright as the morning sun.

It was the thinnest silk of the Sui and Tang dynasties. "

"I think that Shan Si gauze is the most breathable during the summer." Zi Juan clicked her tongue.

"Then Miss Lin won't have to endure the stuffy air in the room." Xue Yan happily clapped her hands.

At this moment, that servant girl spoke again. "Master also sent an ice mirror."

An ice mirror was a container used to store ice in ancient times.

Although ice could be made a long time ago, it wasn't easy to make ice. It was something that only the rich could use. Even if they wanted to use it, there were regulations.

The manservant behind them opened a box and a gust of cold air hit them in the face.

Inside the box was an ice mirror. There were large chunks of ice piled up in one place, so it melted slowly.

A few manservants carried the ice mirror into the room, but only placed it at the door.

That servant girl spoke again. "Master said that Miss Lin's body is weak and can't stand the cold air. This ice mirror can only be placed at the door. When the hot wind blows through the door, the ice mirror will melt and it won't feel hot anymore."

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled. She felt that the tip of her tongue seemed to carry a hint of sweetness.

"There are also some of the freshest melons and fruits. It's best to eat them during the summer.

Master said that although the residence doesn't lack these things, he always wants Miss Lin to taste and use the best. "

That servant girl's voice was neither fast nor slow, neither high nor low, but it was loud enough for everyone in the courtyard to hear.

Daiyu's ears unconsciously turned red.

She whispered, "What's your name?"

That servant girl replied, "This servant's name is Qing Guo. In the future, this servant will often come to deliver things to Miss Lin."

Daiyu pursed her lips and nodded.

Qing Guo hurriedly ordered the servants to carry the rest of the things into the room. Then, she took her leave.

Daiyu turned around and looked at the room that was filled to the brim. She suddenly remembered something.
