King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 149 I'm Just a Disciple

"Girl, Second Master Bao is fine, so don't go there!"

"Last night, I said I would go today, and in the morning I said it would be warmer in the afternoon, and now I don't have to go!"

At the end, Daiyu was already crying, and she was extremely dissatisfied: "You are just working together to bully me, and you don't want me to see Baoyu!"

What Daiyu said really wronged Zijuan and others. The reason why they kept changing their itinerary was because the rules in the mansion kept changing.

Zijuan could only explain: "Girl, it's not that we don't let you go, but that the whole house... has strictly distinguished the inside and the outside. It's already inconvenient for you to see Baoyu again when you stay in your boudoir!"

"A few days ago when the mansion was impeached, Baoyu had already moved out of the inner courtyard, and now the mansion has provoked the wrath of the Holy One, the rules have become even stricter!"

"To tell you the truth, the two wives are arguing about Baoyu today. If you go again at this time, I'm afraid there will be trouble again!"

"At that time, it will be Baoyu who suffers!"

Daiyu is not a person who doesn't like oil and salt. Although she is still worried, she also knows what Zijuan said is right.

"Then... when can I see him?"

Seeing Daiyu let go, Zijuan said quickly: "I'm afraid it won't be possible in the next few days, and you don't have to worry about it, Baoyu is healthy now!"

Nodding her head, Daiyu didn't say any more, but tears welled up in her eyes, which made others very worried.

Seeing this situation, Zijuan said: "If the girl is bored, why don't you go out for a walk and talk to the second girl and the third girl!"

"I'm tired today, so I won't go out!"

Zijuan persuaded again: "The girl is self-willed again. The doctor came to visit a few days ago and told you to move around more. You haven't even left the house these two days!"

To be honest, it is rare among maidservants to be as considerate as Zijuan, so Daiyu has always treated her very well.

"Girl, I'm going to prepare clothes for you!"

Before Daiyu could answer, Zijuan took the girl to prepare to go, and successfully diverted Daiyu's attention.

After more than ten minutes, Daiyu finished washing and dressing, first went to Jiamu's place to say hello, and then talked to Yingchun and the others.

"Why don't you see Sister Bao?" Daiyu was a little puzzled.

Compared with talking to Yingchun and the other three, Daiyu is undoubtedly more interested in Baochai, because both of them are knowledgeable people.

"I was still there just now, but I was called away by my family. If my sister wants to find her...you can go to Lixiangyuan to see her!"

Daiyu half-jokingly said: "The two of you study hard, and you will be successful in the toad palace in the future. I don't dare to disturb you here, so I will leave..."

"We still need to study hard, but Sister Lin is very knowledgeable. Next year's scientific examination will be a gold medal entry. Why don't you give it a try!"

It was Tanchun who said this, she was more lively than Yingchun, so she would only accept Daiyu's jokes at this moment.

"I don't know much about learning. I just know a few words. Sister Bao, who came yesterday, is very knowledgeable. Don't praise the wrong person!"

After saying this sentence with a smile, Daiyu took the girl and left, while the three of Tanchun went to study their books.

At this moment in Lixiangyuan, Xue Baochai is sitting in front of the desk, writing with a pen.

Their family only lived in Rongguo Mansion, and their daily expenses were all dependent on their servants. The storms encountered by Jia's family had little to do with them.

So early this morning, Aunt Xue ordered someone to go to the Ministry of Rites and received the official letter for the election, which listed the time and requirements for the election.

What Baochai writes now is her own resume, after copying it, she submits it to the Ministry of Rites, and if she passes the review, the registration is considered successful.

"Miss Lin is here!"

A reminder came from outside, Baochai put down his pen and looked outside, only to hear footsteps.

After a few breaths, I saw Lin Daiyu walking gracefully into the house holding a handkerchief.

"Sister Bao, why don't you see me going out to play?" Lin Daiyu stopped in front of the desk with a slight smile on her lips.

"Something is delayed!"

Stretching out her head to look at the case, Daiyu asked, "What is this writing?"

"The resume of participating in the princess's servant..."

Speaking of this, Baochai said with regret: "If I enter the palace to serve the princess in the future, it will be even more difficult to joke with you!"

"Serve the princess? Why should sister wrong herself?" Lin Daiyu was a little puzzled.

This is actually quite normal. After all, she is only 12 years old now, and she is well taken care of under the wing of Jia Mu. She basically doesn't need to think about the reality.

Standing up, walking around the desk towards Lin Daiyu, Baochai said with a slight smile: "Princess Tianhuang, it is our servant's blessing to serve her, how can we say it is a grievance!"

When she came to Daiyu, Baochai supported her small shoulders, leaned slightly and said: "It's you, don't talk nonsense about what you just said, be careful of being hurt!"

Daiyu is so smart, even if she knew where she slipped, she half-jokingly said with aggrieved face: "Sister Bao, you have to help me keep the secret, otherwise I won't be able to live!"

Baochai went on and said, "It's okay to help you keep a secret, but it has to be beneficial!"

"What does Sister Bao want?"

"I want... Sister Lin to be more stable in the future, don't just focus on Brother Bao!"

At the end of the talk, Baochai couldn't help laughing, and Daiyu's face turned red with embarrassment, causing the two to fight.

It's just that Daiyu's body is too weak. After running around the desk for two or three times, she coughed from exhaustion, and immediately leaned back on the chair, unwilling to move.

Zijuan from the outer room hurried in and asked anxiously: "Girl, are you okay...I'll bring you medicine!"

After saying that, she immediately turned around and went out to get medicine from the mother-in-law who was waiting outside.

Every time Lin Daiyu leaves the residence, the accompanying wife will bring pills, just in case.

After a while, Zicuckoo came into the house, holding a yellow porcelain bottle in her hand, and poured a pill out of it.

After Daiyu took it, the situation eased a little, which made Baochai beside him heave a sigh of relief.

She knew that Lin Daiyu was weak, but she didn't expect to be so weak. She secretly thought that it would be better to cut down on fighting in the future.

"I think the patterns on the medicine bottle look like those in the palace. Is this the prescription prescribed by the imperial physician?" Baochai asked Zijuan.

"Miss Xue has good eyesight. This medicine is a gift from the Thirteenth Lord, and it really came out of the palace!"

Hearing Zijuan's answer, Xue Baochai was very surprised.

To be more precise, she felt a little uncomfortable, just like when she met Zhen Qin when she said she wanted to choose the princess.

"The medicine that the Thirteenth Lord rewarded? Is it specially rewarded for Sister Lin?" Xue Baochai asked, his tone a little less calm.

"Exactly!" Zicuckoo didn't notice anything unusual, and replied calmly.

Looking at Lin Daiyu who had calmed down, Xue Baochai felt a little sad in his heart, and said in a low tone: "Sister Lin, it seems that this thirteenth master thinks highly of you!"

Daiyu rolled her eyes at Zijuan, and said helplessly, "What, don't listen to Zijuan's nonsense, the Thirteenth Lord is sympathetic to my father's meritorious service, and just rewarded me by the way!"

"Really?"

"This can still be false!"

After saying this, Daiyu looked curiously at Baochai and said, "Sister Bao, do you know Master Thirteen very well?"

Sitting back on the chair, Baochai suppressed the strangeness in her heart, and regained her composure, "I had some contacts in Jinling!"

Straightening the braids hanging from her temples, Daiyu said curiously: "I don't know... what kind of person is Thirteenth Lord!"

In the past two days, she was in the mansion and heard many people talking about Zhu Jinghong, saying that he saved Baoyu and Jia's family, so she was curious to ask at this moment.

However, what Baochai thought was that Zhu Jinghong first wrote her a frivolous letter, and then sent Daiyu medicinal materials, and he didn't know how to provoke Zhenqin...

Thinking of this, Baochai blurted out, "He's just a disciple!"
