Daiyu was stunned,
She really did not expect..,
Who else would send things to Rongguo Province.
"It's father." Daiyu raised her head and looked at Ying Ge.
Ying Ge shook his head. "Second Master brought it from the courtyard."
"Uncle." Daiyu was stunned again.
She was not close to her two uncles,
They had only met a few times, and they had not spoken much.
When her first uncle saw her, he was impatient, and when her second uncle saw her, he was serious and rigid. Gradually, Daiyu was a little afraid of them.
Why was everything fine..,
Second uncle even sent things over,
Could it be that aunt made the decision..,
Ying Ge was also stunned. "It shouldn't be..,
It's just that second master didn't say it clearly. "
Xue Yan, who was at the side, opened her mouth,
She was about to say something..,
But then she thought of the instructions that day..,
She glanced at the people around her cautiously,
In the end, she still shut her mouth first.
After all, there was no hurry to say it at this time.
"Then put it down first," Daiyu said.
She was not interested in these things,
After all, the Gusu Lin family was not a small family,
She was not someone who had not seen the world.
It was just that she was grateful for this friendship, so she wanted to take a closer look later.
Ying Ge responded and asked the maids to put down the boxes,
Then she led the people out.
After they left, Xue Yan walked to Daiyu's side.
"Miss, don't you want to take a look?"
Xue Yan had been much quieter recently. Daiyu rarely saw her take the initiative to speak,
At this moment, she could not help but be slightly surprised,
She nodded,
She reached out to take the things in the box.
She said, "I don't know who it is.."
Xue Yan finally had time and said in a low voice, "I think it should be my brother's master.."
"That uncle.." Daiyu asked.
As they spoke, Daiyu had already taken out a brocade box from inside.
The brocade box was more exquisite than the box outside. It was fastened with jade, and it looked expensive.
Daiyu unfastened the fastener and opened the lid. She saw some silver and gold coins.
There was also a letter under it.
"This.." Daiyu's slender white fingers touched the silver coins, and was stunned. "What is it for.."
Xue Yan thought for a moment before replying, "I've heard from the people in the residence that the masters treat their servants very generously. They often reward their servants with broken pieces of silver and gold pellets. If someone is rewarded, then they will have a lot of face.
Rumor has it that there are still people outside who treat the gold ingots in the mansion as treasures. "
Daiyu was slightly surprised. "So that's what it's for."
"Xue Yan," Xue Yan than "Xue Yan"
Xue Yan smiled and said, "That's exactly what my brother said. His master is a good person."
Daiyu nodded in agreement.
Especially after experiencing Rongguo Province, which seemed to be doting on her in every way, but lacked a lot of considerate and considerate actions, she felt a lot more comfortable in her heart.
She just didn't know which uncle the other party was.
With this thought in mind, Dai Yu picked up the letter and opened it. Unfolding the letter in a few breaths, the lines of handwritten words came into view.
It was really, really familiar..
Daiyu Xue Yan's eyes widened slightly.
When she took a closer look, her heart was already pounding unconsciously, as if it was going to jump out of her chest.
She clutched the letter to her chest, then came back to her senses and whispered to Xue Yan, "Bring the candles."
Xue Yan nodded and didn't ask any more questions, directly fetching the candlestick.
Daiyu Xue Yan glanced at the letter again. She had lit it with fire just now, and after it burned out, she threw it into the hand warmer, and there was no trace of it left behind.
Daiyu Xue Yan let out a sigh of relief, and only then did she feel more relaxed.
The letter wasn't sent by any uncle, but by her older brother.
He was only a few years older than her, and if others saw it, she wouldn't be able to explain herself.
"Young Lady." Ying Ge's voice came from outside the door.
Daiyu Xue Yan hurriedly handed the box to Xue Yan, and only then did she respond in a low voice.
"Second Young Lady, the others are waiting for you."
"Okay, I'll be right there." Daiyu Xue Yan stood up and held the hand warmer in her hand. For some reason, she felt a lot more at ease.
When she reached the door, Daiyu Xue Yan asked again, "How is cousin?"
"He said that he'll be fine after lying down for a few more days."
Daiyu Xue Yan didn't know why, but she was in a good mood at this moment, so she said, "Cousin is sick. I should go and take a look at him some other day."
Ying Ge Xue Yan nodded, but she felt that Miss Lin Xue Yan's words had a sense of alienation.
She should go and take a look.
She said it as if she was forced to do so because of their familial relationship and etiquette.
In the end, Ying Ge Xue Yan didn't say anything. She remembered what someone else had told her.
No matter how capable a servant girl was, she still had to be loyal to her master before she could be considered capable.
Now that Miss Lin Xue Yan was her master, she naturally couldn't show off in front of her.
Daiyu Xue Yan was still thinking about going to visit Jia Baoyu some other day.
But when she entered the garden, other than her sisters, she also saw Jia Baoyu Xue Yan, who was happily chatting with a servant girl.
Daiyu Xue Yan Xue Yan pursed her lips, and it wasn't good for her to go forward.
Not far away, there was a girl with thin shoulders and a slender waist.
That girl turned around and hugged Daiyu Xue Yan. She smiled and said, "Why are you standing there and not making a sound?"
Daiyu Xue Yan called out in a low voice, "Third Younger Sister."
This girl was Tanchun Xue Yan.
"Miss Bao is also here, so I wanted to invite you over to talk with her for a while." Tanchun Xue Yan said.
Daiyu Xue Yan had heard some rumors that she wasn't as approachable as Miss Bao, who had just entered the residence. She looked down on others, so people didn't want to get close to her.
Daiyu Xue Yan was still young, so when she talked about Jia Baoyu, she felt a little awkward in her heart. She unconsciously Xue Yan tightened her grip on the handwarmer in her hand.
Tanchun Xue Yan didn't know the inside story, so she led Daiyu Xue Yan forward. After walking a few steps, she heard Jia Baoyu Xue Yan talking to someone.
"I've seen that young master before. Even Father praised him for his literary talent and outstanding intelligence."
She then heard the servant girl ask, "What does he look like?"
"He looks even better.
He's taller than me and Xue Pan, and he's very tall.
His facial features are also very good.
This kind of person makes people want to get close to him, but also makes people afraid. "
"Why?"
"He looks scary. He's obviously smiling, but in front of him, he behaves himself." When Jia Baoyu Xue Yan said this, she felt that it was a little embarrassing, so she didn't say anything else.
However, the admiration in his eyes had yet to disappear.
Jia Baoyu Xue Yan didn't like reading, because he always felt that those who read too many sage books were pedantic and stupid, and there was no spiritual energy in their bones.
He didn't like men even more. He always felt that men were not as clean and pure as women.
He was also the only child in the family, so there was usually no one who could catch his eye.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think that if he had a powerful elder brother, he would be like that young master.
Daiyu stopped and listened for a while. He could faintly hear that the person Jia Baoyu Xue Pan was talking about seemed to be that elder brother.
But was that elder brother the top scholar in this exam that Xue Yan mentioned?
They hadn't seen each other for a few years, and he had already become so amazing?
"But Miss Lin is here." Suddenly, he heard a voice ask.
Daiyu Xue Pan looked over and saw a girl with almond-shaped eyes. Her appearance was plump, and her bearing was refined and elegant. She wore a honey-colored dress and didn't wear any extra hairpins. The dress was neither new nor old, and there wasn't the slightest bit of extravagance.
The girl took the initiative to walk over. She didn't seem very friendly, but her attitude made people feel that she was very close.
"I've finally seen Miss Lin," she said with a smile.
"Bao Jiejie."
Daiyu Xue Pan called out first, then said, "My body is usually weak, so I don't go out much. I'm afraid of catching cold."
Baochai Xue Pan was slightly surprised. "Then you've invited a doctor."
"Yes, I've been taking medicine ever since I was peeing."
Baochai Xue Pan laughed. "I'm also taking medicine all the time."
On the other end, Baoyu Xue Pan asked, "Bao Jiejie Xue Pan, what kind of medicine do you take? We should ask the Fu to prescribe it as well."
"My medicine isn't easy to prescribe.
In the past, the doctor couldn't cure me. Later on, a monk came. I don't know where he got a prescription from, but he also gave me a packet of medicinal powder to use as a guiding medicine. It's very fragrant.
It's strange. When I'm sick, I'll be fine after taking a pill. "
When Daiyu Xue Pan heard this, he didn't feel surprised or curious.
Her medicine was given to her by that elder brother of hers. Compared to some prescription from the sea, she felt that it was better.
Baoyu Xue Pan asked again, "What kind of prescription from the sea?"
"The ingredients used in this prescription are all limited. I need twelve taels of white peonies that bloom in spring, twelve taels of white lotus that bloom in summer, twelve taels of white hibiscus that bloom in autumn, and twelve taels of white plum blossom that bloom in winter."
The bystanders were already shocked by this. It was very strange.
Baoyu Xue Pan suddenly thought of Daiyu Xue Pan, so he turned his head and asked, "What kind of medicine does Sister Lin take? Is there a prescription for it?"
"It's just an ordinary pill," Daiyu Xue Pan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "The Old Ancestor has already asked the Fu to prescribe it."
In comparison, the medicine Daiyu took seemed very ordinary. Naturally, there was nothing to ask.
"What kind of illness does Sister Lin have?" Baochai Xue Pan asked.
"She got it when she was in her mother's womb."
When Baochai Xue Pan heard this, he looked at her and saw that this Miss Lin wasn't weak at all. Her face also had a faint crimson color, and she had a romantic attitude.
He smiled and said, "The doctor that Sister Lin hired must be very skilled. Sister Lin seems to be very healthy now."
Daiyu Xue Pan was just thinking about He Shen, so when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Yes."
"It just so happens that Older Cousin is also here today." Daiyu Xue Pan turned his head and instructed Xue Yan, "Go and get the box on the table."
Baoyu Xue Pan was curious, "What is this for?"
"It's for Older Cousin."
Baoyu Xue Pan rarely saw such a good face like Daiyu Xue Pan, so he was overjoyed and waited patiently.
Not long after, Xue Yan Xue Pan returned with a box.
"Older Cousin is sick, so I don't know what to give him." Daiyu Xue Pan had Xue Yan Xue Pan bring the box up.
He opened it and took a look.
The bystanders exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, isn't this one of those rare things from the sea?"
"Isn't it right in the Old Ancestor's room?"
They had all seen it before, but it wasn't something that anyone could hold in their hands.
It was said that this kind of thing was rare even in the palace.
Daiyu Xue Pan pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
Was it rare?
This was something that his older brother had sent over, but it was just one of the many things.
Mother Jia's gaze circled around the manservant. In the end, she still couldn't bear to embarrass her son.
Despite the raging anger in her heart, she forced herself to suppress it.
"Second Master said that he wants to bring Baoyu over," Mother Jia asked.
"Yes, yes," the manservant replied softly.
"Then bring him over," Mother Jia said as she closed her eyes.
Mother Jia doted on Baoyu anxiously, but she knew that Jia Zheng was now the head of the family in Rongguo Province.
If she didn't do as Jia Zheng said, then wouldn't she be humiliating Jia Zheng in front of everyone in Rongguo Province? How would he be able to maintain his prestige in the future?
Jia Zheng wasn't a father who didn't dote on his son.
When he saw that Baoyu was really sick, perhaps his anger would disappear in an instant.
Thinking of this, Mother Jia calmed down and wasn't as angry as before.
"Go." Madam Jia said again.
"Mother," Lady Wang was anxious.
Wang Xifeng glanced at her and hurriedly advised her anxiously, "Ancestor, how can we do this? Baoyu is seriously ill. How can we move him?"
Mother Jia was firm this time, "Go quickly. Don't let Second Master wait too long."
The ancient people practiced filial piety.
In particular, Mother Jia had a lot of prestige in Rongguo Province. Once she spoke, even though Lady Wang was unhappy, she couldn't refute.
Wang Xifeng had always followed Lady Wang's lead. Since Lady Wang didn't say anything, she wasn't that stupid and also tried to persuade her.
At this time, the manservant heaved a sigh of relief and scrambled up. Together with a few other nimble servants, he carried Baoyu off the bed.
They actually carried him out just like that.
Seeing this, Lady Wang couldn't help but grip her handkerchief tightly and wipe the corners of her eyes.
"What kind of sin have they committed?"
No one knew who she was referring to.
Perhaps because the atmosphere in the room was too tense, Lady Xing thought she was clever and opened her mouth, "Is Miss Lin okay?"
Mother Jia glanced at her, "What could happen to Yu'er?"
"Baoyu fell ill the moment he came back from her place. As his aunt, I feel bad just looking at him.
Miss Lin didn't say anything and sent someone to take a look. "
Lady Wang's expression became more and more unsightly.
For a moment, no one in the room responded to her words. As Lady Xing spoke, she felt that she had lost interest. She stopped talking and found a place to sit down.
She even raised her hand and tapped her leg as if nothing had happened.
Mother Jia had always looked down on her stupid appearance. At this time, she said unhappily, "If you only know how to talk nonsense in front of me, then you don't need to stand in front of me in the future."
Lady Xing was shocked. She quickly stood up and smiled apologetically.
"Wait for a while. Baoyu should be back soon," Mother Jia said.
Wang Xifeng responded and quickly helped Mother Jia sit down.
