Hearing this, Daiyu turned around and frowned at Xueyan:
"It must be you, a talkative girl, who said what I said."
Xue Yan pouted and whispered:
"This is not a shameful thing to say."
Daiyu was choked and speechless, and she only said for a long time:
"Even if you lose your rules even more."
Xueyan secretly stuck out her tongue:
"I have rules. I'm going to make a bowl of tea for Mr. Lian." As he spoke, he ran out easily.
Daiyu lowered her head for a long time, Fang said:
"My father is in good health, and I feel more at ease.
As for whether or not to come back here, it depends on my father’s wishes.”
.
She is a very smart person, she doesn't like to be pretentious, she is always in a mood, and she is also outspoken.
This kind of temperament is extremely loved by Jia Mu, but deeply detested by Mrs. Wang.
With Daiyu's intelligence, how could she not notice it?
Since she came to Jia's house, she has been fully aware of Jia's mother's intention to bring her and Baoyu together.
Because of this, the hostility from Mrs. Wang also followed, and she also felt like a mirror.
But the problem is, she didn't like Baoyu.
In other words, if the first boy she saw in her life was Baoyu, then maybe she would really be attracted by Baoyu's "face like peach petals and eyes like autumn waves", coupled with his good temper and willingness to be humble for girls.
Attracted.
But the first person of the opposite sex Daiyu saw in her life was Jia Lian, and it was burned into her mind and could not be erased.
Baoyu was pampered by his family since he was a child and grew up. He did not like reading and had no ambitions. He was kind-hearted and a simple and honest young man with no ill intentions. He was as innocent as if he was living in a dream.
Jia Lian, on the other hand, is already a steward and director, a handsome young man with both internal and external qualities, gentle and well-educated, which at the same time does not prevent him from clearly expressing his "ideas" and "attitudes".
Comparing the two, the gem loses its luster.
Now, seeing the person she longed for sitting in front of her, Daiyu decided to explain her position.
So, she slowly raised her head and whispered:
"If I live here, some people will feel uneasy.
This originally had nothing to do with me, but I really don’t like people like these who hide their lies and hide their lies.
Let's not talk about it, let's talk about Sister Bao just now. She has said it many times and never believes in the theory of "gold and jade". But Baoyu wanted to see the golden lock she carried with her, so she immediately unbuttoned her breasts and revealed her red breasts from inside.
The admiral took out the necklace and showed it to him.
When I entered the room, Sister Bao was sitting next to Baoyu in such a disheveled state.
Two days later, because I said a line to the lyrics of "The Peony Pavilion", she came over to me and advised me seriously, saying, 'After reading miscellaneous books, your temperament will change, and you will be in trouble.'"
Jia Lian thought:
Baochai also advised Daiyu not to read miscellaneous books?
Sister Lin was born into a family of Zhong Ming Ding Shi, with a noble mother and a learned Tanhua Lang father. She was raised as a man since she was a child. She had already completed Confucian studies such as the "Four Books" when she was five or six years old.
For the core textbooks, the teachers hired later were all from Jia Yucun, who was a Jinshi and served as a prefect.
Sister Lin is a true academic, and her self-esteem and self-love are deep in her bones.
A person with such a true temperament like her is completely different from Baochai, who pursues a certain goal in everything.
So Jia Lian smiled:
"Wherever she goes, she will preach great truths."
Daiyu also smiled softly:
"She likes to talk sense, so just let her talk and I'll just ignore it.
But why do you always have to act in front of me?
She told me that she avoids "good marriages" and deliberately stays away from Baoyu and doesn't like to hang out with him.
But she always had to go to Baoyu's place three or two times a day, and she would always sit there until dark. Whenever Baoyu was not there, she would have to look for me here. Only when she saw that Baoyu was not there did she feel at ease.
After she got the gift from the empress, she immediately came to me and asked me what I got. She said, "Why are she and Baoyu the same?" and immediately asked the girl to run to the old lady, who asked me if the message was wrong.
Just make it more widely known.
When the girl came back, she said that all the gifts were signed one by one, so there would be no mistakes. She told me, "This is getting more and more boring." As a result, she immediately put the red musk skewer on her hand. p>
I really have no intention of hindering their gold and jade affairs, but they don't want to worry about life and death. Thinking about it, they can only sit back and relax if I don't come back."
Jia Lian smiled and said:
"Sister Lin is a smart person, why can't she understand a sentence?
If you argue with a fool, you won’t know who looks like a fool.
The world is so big, but after all, there are many villains and few gentlemen.
But no matter how many villains there are, it does not affect a gentleman's ability to be a gentleman.
If a gentleman cannot be as stable as Mount Tai and is influenced by villains, how can he be called a gentleman?"
Jia Lian's words are as smart as jade, which is a revelation.
A magnanimous gentleman is so open-minded.
Such a man is the upright man that girls admire.
So Daiyu looked at Jia Lian calmly:
"Brother Lian is like a teacher and a friend, and Daiyu admires him endlessly."
Jia Lian was not a fool. He understood the change from "Second Brother Lian" to "Brother Lian" and smiled:
"Then...will you come back?"
But by chance, Zicuckoo, who had changed her skirt, came in together with Xueyan, who was carrying tea. Daiyu suddenly blushed, so she had to pretend to cough and cover her face with a handkerchief.
.
As expected, Jia Lian's request for leave was quickly approved, so he immediately decided on a date, booked a boat, and prepared to go all the way to Yangzhou along the canal.
But on the day of departure, Longer had a stomachache and was unable to make the trip.
In addition to Zhao'er, who was locked in the stable for being drunk the night before, Jia Lian only took Xing'er and Fu'er, and his maid Qingwen to set off.
Daiyu, on the other hand, according to Jia Mu's instructions, in addition to Zicuckoo, Xueyan, and wet nurse Aunt Wang, she also brought four nuns, eight little girls, and a mighty team.
Jia's mother told Jia Lian to bring Daiyu back. Mrs. Wang was beside her. Although she echoed her words, the kindness and light in her eyes was cold and she wanted to pierce Jia Lian.
Although Wang Xifeng thought about it more and more in the past few days, she felt that what Jia Lian said was reasonable, but she had a character that refused to admit defeat, and she believed that her Wang family would never harm her, so she refused to give in and only let Ping'er surrender to Jia Lian.
Arrange your luggage.
She herself made repeated calculations, leaving only twenty taels of silver for Jia Lian as pocket money, except for the travel expenses.
And because Zhao'er didn't follow, Sister Feng privately called Fu'er into the house. After some threats, Fu'er was so frightened that Fu'er swore that he would keep an eye on Jia Lian's every move on the road to know whether he was messing around with women or not.
Write them down one by one and report them to Sister Feng truthfully when you get home.
.
The journey went smoothly. After Sister Lin took people to board a ship and raised the anchor, Jia Lian also took people to board the ship and set sail.
Qingwen has never left the second door since she entered Jia's house. At this time, she was following Jia Lian. Although she did not dare to violate the rules, her heart was as excited as a bird out of its cage.
As soon as the ship left the shore, Qingwen was no longer bound by the rules and ran to the bow and stern of the ship, looking at the fresh things everywhere.
When she ran into the cabin in a hurry, she couldn't help but let out a "yeah":
