Red House Shoufu

Chapter 99 Reporting (15) 【Subscription】

The turmoil in the capital for the past few days has finally calmed down after the scorching summer.

Lin Shu's life in the cabinet was very good. When the six divisions were granted the imperial decree to return relatives, Lin Shu's performance made him feel very good in the hearts of the six divisions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other censors.

He was born in a famous family, and now he is favored by the emperor, coupled with his excellent reputation, anyone can see that Lin Shu's future is limitless.

This has led to a sharp increase in the number of invitations sent to the Lin Mansion recently. Daiyu frowned and looked at the pile of invitations in front of her, thinking about how to reply.

These are all posts inviting me to participate in various flower viewing feasts and poetry gatherings, and many of them are friends of the same year as my father Lin Ruhai when he was alive.

Each post of this kind represents a connection of the Lin family, and it is also a help for the elder brother in the court.Daiyu picked up a pen and arranged them one by one. Before the end of June, there were a total of six flower viewing banquets, and the invitations to the two poetry clubs needed to go.

In addition to these, there are also banquets held by honorable families such as the Ning Rong Mansion and the Bowling Marquis Mansion.Before the Dragon Boat Festival, she needed to go to Rongguo Mansion. Since she broke up unhappy years ago, and her elder brother Chunwei Dabi, she only visited her grandmother once.

The relationship between the Lin Jia family is extremely delicate now, they are close to the first house, and they are like passers-by with the second house.If it wasn't for maintaining the apparent in-law relationship and paralyzing the enemy, Lin Shu would have done it long ago.

Lin Shu did not hide these things from Daiyu, and Jia Shishi largely just acquiesced, or was forced to pretend not to know, but Lin Ruhai's death and Daiyu's poisoning, the mistress of the second room, Jia Wangshi, was the murderer one.

"Girl, Master Bao sent Zijuan over here."

Just as Daiyu was thinking about something, Xueyan knocked on the door to report.

Daiyu raised her head, recalling this unfamiliar yet familiar name.She looked outside the door, only to see a pretty maid in a sky-blue silk dress standing outside the door, her eyes were full of excitement.

"Zicuckoo? It's you!"

"Girl, the servant finally saw you!"

Zijuan knelt down and kowtowed, Daiyu quickly stepped forward to help her up, and gently wiped the dust on Zijuan's forehead with a handkerchief.

"What are you doing? Look, it's all red and swollen."

Daiyu blamed softly, and told Xueyan to get the ointment.Randomly she took Zicuckoo to the house and asked Zicuckoo to sit down and talk.

"Why did Baoyu send you here? Is there something wrong?" Daiyu was a little surprised. According to her brother, because of Wang Ziteng's marriage proposal being refuted, Baoyu came to the door many times but was rejected by the Lin family.It had been silent for a long time, why did they suddenly send Zicuckoo over?
Zijuan suddenly became nervous, she looked left and right, and whispered in Daiyu's ear when she realized no one was there: "Girl, my wife wants to harm you, you must be careful!"

"Hit me? Why did my wife want to hurt me?" Although Daiyu was a little surprised by Zijuan's astonishing words, she has experienced many things during her growth in the past few years.Suddenly she was shocked to hear that someone was going to kill her, but she wasn't too scared, instead she became a little more curious.

Zijuan said in a straightforward manner: "Two days ago, my servant went to pick up things from the wife's yard on behalf of Master Bao, and overheard my wife talking to the visiting uncle and wife again. The servant heard them mention your name, so I I hid under the window and eavesdropped on a few words..."

It turned out that the Lin family rejected Wang Ziteng's marriage proposal for Jia Baoyu. Although Jia Wang was secretly happy that Jia Min's "sick child" would not become her daughter-in-law, she also secretly hated Daiyu's ignorance.

But now she can't teach the brothers and sisters of the Lin family by herself, so she thought of using her strength to fight.

Wang Ziteng's wife gave Jia Wang an idea. Huo Qingying, the magistrate of Nan'an Palace, was jealous of Daiyu because of her title of magistrate.

So she suggested to Jia Wang that they could find an opportunity to cause disputes between the two and take the opportunity to teach Daiyu a lesson.As for when, where, and how to teach the lesson, Zicuckoo didn't hear it.

"Girl, someone came at that time. The servant was afraid of being noticed, so he didn't hear it later. The Huo County Lord is domineering. If she bumps into her and someone provokes you...you must be careful!"

Zijuan worriedly reminded Daiyu that although she had always hoped that Daiyu would marry into Rongguo Mansion, now it seems that the second house of Rongguo Mansion is like a bottomless abyss. It's day.

Daiyu looked at Zijuan who kept reminding herself to be careful, and sighed in her heart about the changes in the world.Three years ago, the elder brother asked the second elder brother Lian to take her away, but now the master and the servant meet again because of this kind of incident.

"Do you know what would happen to you if Second Aunt found out that you told me this? Don't you hate me? Why did you come here to report to me?" Daiyu asked suddenly.

Zijuan shuddered when she heard the words "Second Aunt". Jia Wang seemed to be merciful, but in fact she was very ruthless.

After staying by Baoyu's side for three years, she secretly learned a lot of things Jia Wang had done.

"The servant is also afraid, but... the servant is still worried about the girl. The servant has been with the girl since she was a child, and the incident back then was the fault of the servant..."

At this time Xueyan found the ointment: "Miss, I found the ointment. Brother Fuquan said it is the best bruise medicine in the mansion. He also asked who was injured and whether he should go to the cabinet to find the uncle..."

"Give her a quick wipe."

Xueyan followed Daiyu's instructions and wiped the redness and bruises on Zijuan's forehead.

After tidying up, Daiyu asked, "Does Baoyu know about this? Did he ask you to remind me?"

Zijuan smiled wryly and said: "How dare I tell the second master Bao that we can't get close, not to mention that the second master Bao won't believe it. After all, the slave is just a servant. Originally, the slave was thinking of finding an excuse to come out of the house to see you. It just so happened that Second Master Bao wrote you a letter and was thinking about finding someone to send it to you, so the servants volunteered and this is the only way to see you."

After all, Zijuan took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Daiyu.Daiyu took it and opened it, and the familiar handwriting appeared in front of her eyes, which were nothing more than thoughts, apologies and complaints.

Daiyu lamented Baoyu's childishness, and he still hadn't improved at all after so many years.

"Sister Zijuan, what happened?" Xueyan couldn't understand the conversation between the two, and thought that Zijuan had encountered a difficult situation and came to ask for help.

Hear Xueyan's inquiry.Zijuan just shook his head without explaining.

Daiyu put the letter away, and said to Xueyan randomly: "I'll talk about these things later, it's not easy for Zijuan to come here, you go to the kitchen first to see if there is any refreshment, bring some, and let's have a good talk."

After Xueyan left, Daiyu said: "I don't know how you are doing now? Last time I heard Sister Feng said that you were taken by Baoyu, I was happy for you. At least Rongguo's mansion is also in Baoyu's place." , you can relax."

Although the two haven't seen each other for three years, the relationship between master and servant is still there.Otherwise, Zijuan would not take the huge risk of offending the mistress and come to report to herself.
