Chapter 263: Conversation in the Car: Daiyu’s Changes
"That's fine with the sixth girl from the Sheng family, but what about the girl from the Luo family? I think she looks pretty good too."
While chatting, seeing that Jia Lan’s mood was not affected by the letter just now, Daiyu became bolder.
Daiyu, who used to be indifferent in the past, asked about Eleven Niang for the first time, which made Jia Lan burst out laughing. He looked at her intently, feeling that Daiyu today was very different from usual.
Facing Jia Lan's gaze, Daiyu Yanyan frowned slightly, her eyebrows were a bit sad, but her face pretended to be calm, but the little stubbornness in her eyes could not escape.
Jia Lan’s gaze.
For a moment, Jia Lan's thoughts were flowing, and she seemed to have figured out something. She slightly curved her mouth, threw the letter from Prince Zhongyi behind her, and said seriously: "Don't worry, Aunt Lin, you are the most beautiful."
The unexpected compliment made Dai Yu blush in panic. She avoided Jia Lan's sight and immediately cursed: "What are you talking about!"
Jia Lan laughed and said seriously: "Sun Shaozu made a lot of mistakes today, but there is one thing I think he got right, which is the beauty of Aunt Lin..."
The compliments made Daiyu's fat cheeks blush even more, but she still did not forget the business.
"Don't change the topic, I haven't answered what I asked you yet!"
"Hi..." Jia Lan pretended to be low-key: "I'm just a casual acquaintance with that girl from the Luo family, so why don't we get to the bottom of it like this? I've already told you about her, even when I went north.
I reached out to help her family when she was in trouble, but other than that, I had nothing to do with her."
"Tell me more details, I want to hear it!" Daiyu raised her chin and looked directly at Jia Lan.
Sure enough, women are all mysterious, and beautiful women are even more mysterious.
Jia Lan sighed, and slowly recounted the details of his acquaintance with the Luo girl again, in great detail.
Daiyu's face softened slightly after hearing this, and she nodded and said: "As a life-saver and as a gift to my servant, it is indeed reasonable to give you a pair of knee pads, and... she also has a heart."
"The girl from the Luo family is honest and generous. She is really good." Jia Lan praised, and when he saw Daiyu's eyes suddenly glance sharply towards his face, he quickly turned around: "It's a pity..."
"What's a pity?" Daiyu asked quickly.
For some reason, she is very interested in this eleventh-year-old girl.
Jia Lan's eyes darkened: "The Luo family girl came to me because she encountered some difficult problem, but I'm afraid I can't help her..."
Daiyu was a little surprised and couldn't keep up with her thinking for a while.
"Aunt Lin, think about it, this polo match is naturally a grand event, and family members from all the houses can come to watch the match. But after all, they are all famous families in Beijing, and they still pay more or less attention to the so-called 'property'. Miss Luo's sincerity
You don’t have to come personally to deliver the knee pads to me.”
Indeed.
Daiyu nodded: "So you think she is here to ask for something from you?"
"Maybe it is, maybe it's not..." The way Jia Lan shook his head made Daiyu frown, but what he said immediately made Daiyu startled.
"But I can more or less guess that something happened to her family, and it finally fell on her, causing her to come to me in a hurry and seek medical treatment."
"An accident?" Daiyu became more and more curious, looking at Jia Lan with something strange in her eyes.
How do you know so much about changes in other people’s families?
When Jia Lan saw it, he immediately burst out laughing, and then expressed his observation.
I heard that the girl from the Luo family was just a concubine who was not favored. She was suddenly summoned to the capital by the master's family. When she talked about the master's family, everyone from the aunt to the maids had more or less fear on their faces.
Especially the subtle expression on the face of the eleventh girl just now made Jia Lan confirm his thoughts.
"Is the distinction between direct descendants and concubines so serious?"
Daiyu also had mixed feelings after hearing this. Although she had lost her parents, as the only daughter of a noble family, she had everything she should enjoy.
In her eyes, even girls who were not born by legitimate children live a pretty good life, but she forgets that this world is still a society with strict ethics and education, and she sighed a few times.
Seeing that Daiyu was a little lonely, Jia Lan comforted her with a warm voice: "My aunt thinks too highly of those defenders of Taoism. It's not that there are no 'true Confucians' or 'pure Confucians' in this world, but the vast majority of people talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality.
There is only one calculation in my mind!
Profit, and only profit, is what they care about most.
The girls of the Luo family seem to be trapped by the difference between legitimate concubines and concubines, but in the final analysis, they are still trapped by interests."
Jia Lan looked at Daiyu with deep eyes: "Everything in the world is for profit. Since the beginning of history, the relationship between people has been trapped in a big net of fame and fortune, and there is no way to escape.
You and I are just people on the Internet."
Daiyu looked surprised, as if she was not used to Jialan in front of her.
I was originally talking about the Luo girl's affairs nicely, but in an instant, Jia Lan elevated me to such a high level.
I want to say something but can't.
Daiyu knows that what Jia Lan said is right.
The two of them were sitting in the warm car talking about each other, but they didn't know that they themselves had many things they couldn't help themselves with.
"You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs."
Jialan's mysterious words shocked Daiyu. She took a breath of air and looked at each other blankly. After an unknown amount of time, Daiyu, whose mouth was a little dry, asked: "You and I will also fall into this trap in the future."
In the interest?"
"This is for sure."
Seeing Daiyu's face turn gloomy, Jia Lan smiled and asked: "Aren't you and I growing up to deal with the big net of profit?"
The smart Daiyu immediately understood the meaning of Jia Lan's words, and looked at him with eyes full of admiration.
His senses are too keen, right?
"Haha..." Jia Lan looked at Daiyu with a smile in his eyes: "Although I don't know why Aunt Lin changed like this after a football game, in my opinion this is a good thing.
There is never a place that is transcendent in this world. From birth, people must learn to accept this society instead of escaping from it.
Besides, there is no place for you to escape. Is Mr. Wu Liu’s so-called ‘not giving up for five buckets of rice’ really just five buckets of rice? Later generations of literati rushed to compose poems and write poems to reconcile it. Is it really for the sake of transcendence?” Daiyu laughed after hearing this.
She is a talented woman, so she naturally knows that the so-called return to the countryside is not at all because of "natural love for hills and mountains", but because of the dispute between a poor family and a wealthy family.
Tao Yuanming's ancestor was Tao Kan, a lieutenant from a poor family who oversaw the military affairs of eight states. After Tao Kan's death, the Tao family declined rapidly, and Tao Kan had a very bad relationship with Prime Minister Wang Dao during his lifetime.
Who is Director Wang? He is an outstanding figure in the world of Wang and Ma. The famous Wang family of Langya has offended this family. Tao Yuanming's official career will undoubtedly start in hell.
The terrible thing is that his boss was Wang Xizhi's son Wang Ningzhi. This man believed in the Five Pecks of Rice Cult. Tao Yuanming naturally ignored him and simply resigned and left.
The so-called five buckets of rice is not material to some extent, but spiritual. Tao Yuanming actually wanted to use this to express his political differences with the Wang family.
