Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

Chapter 46
"girl."

Xueyan sat sideways at the corner of the carriage, her expression full of worry.Then he carefully wrapped Lin Daiyu's tear-wiping face in the cloak, for fear that the cold wind would hit her.

He said again: "Miss, are you tired? Why don't you lie in my arms and rest for a while, we have six or seven days to get to the capital, how can you survive in such a body?"

Before the words fell, Jia Lian passed by the carriage on horseback, not as gentle as when he came, and even Daiyu called Lian's second brother, but he just hummed abruptly, let alone stopped for a while before setting off.

Xueyan sat cross-legged beside Daiyu, and squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth after a while: "...What a master! Do you still want my Lin family to pay for everything?!"

As soon as these words came out, Daiyu lowered her head and wiped her tears again, and said with a wry smile, "Don't say that again."

He only asked Xueyan to stop talking, but he didn't say that Xueyan was wrong.

Seeing the tired look on Daiyu's face, Xueyan's heart ached even more, so she didn't say much, she just melted the ginseng Yangrong pill in the water cup, and put it on her lap after serving Daiyu, telling her to sleep for a while.

"I haven't taken the pills for the past two days. I only brought a dozen or so pills with me when I came here. Will they be gone tomorrow?" Daiyu swallowed, holding back the grief in her heart, sniffing the warm medicine breath at the tip of her nose, and whispered softly.

Xueyan has served Daiyu since she was a child, and she knows that she has a sensitive heart and is frail because of the birth of a mother. Sick people are more likely to worry too much.

So he hurriedly said in a low voice: "Girl, don't worry. I've sent someone to make meatballs in Yangzhou these few days. The 200-year-old ginseng alone weighs a few pounds! I'll take care of the trivial things for the girl. You just take care of yourself and take care of your body. Only when the master and wife are watching in the sky will you be happy."

In fact, there are tens of catties of various tonics.

When she came here, the little girl Yunzhu was very strange, she only said that the girl's body might not be able to withstand the cold air from the north.And the weather in the north is cold, even the properties of the medicines in the north will be a bit colder. It is better to prepare the medicinal materials and take them there when you return to Yangzhou, which will save the properties of the medicines, and the efficacy of the medicines will be compromised, which will hurt your body.

Later, he said some strange things on the sidelines, but he didn't take it seriously at the time.

Now that I think about it, even a little girl who is thousands of miles away can see it better than me, and the girl and I still wholeheartedly think that the second master Lian is here to help the Lin family.

The more I think about it, the more I feel my nose sore, how could the fate of her girl be so ill-fated!Afraid that Daiyu would feel even more sad when she saw it, she hurriedly turned her head to cover it up by drinking water.

Sure enough, Daiyu didn't see Xueyan's sadness, she just closed her eyes and joked casually: "Nonsense again, that 200-year-old ginseng costs one or two thousand taels of silver per catty, isn't it tens of thousands of catties? Where did you get the silver?"

Speaking of this, Xueyan's heart was finally not so gloomy. When the magistrate came to her that day, she only thought it was the old friend of the master who came to comfort the young lady, but who knew that she would tell such a shocking secret.

The girl's maternal ancestral family has such vicious thoughts?
At first she didn't believe it, but she didn't dare to refute the kindness of the magistrate, let alone question the second master Lian.I just had a lot of things on my mind, and I tossed and turned for two or three nights.

During those nights, Yunzhu's words and the magistrate's words were going back and forth in her mind, and seeing Second Master Lian's colorful clothes every day, going in and out seeing this and that, made her even more depressed.

Now that the girl's parents are gone, as a cousin, he doesn't talk about caring, even if he doesn't give any condolences every day, even if she goes out to buy medicinal materials for the girl, I'm afraid the second master Lian doesn't know about it!

Xueyan gritted her teeth in her heart, but she still coaxed Daiyu with a smile on her face: "Our master is a direct branch of the Lin family, a prince of the Five Dynasties, and a inspector appointed by His Majesty to inspect salt and censor, and his wife is even more prominent and wealthy. The family dare not talk about gold mountains and silver seas, but there is no reason why the girl can't eat meatballs to nourish her health!"

Looking at Daiyu's thinner body, she felt distressed: "Miss, don't worry, the magistrate is our lord's best friend, and he has planned everything for the young lady. Although there is no precedent for a female succession in this dynasty, there is no precedent for treating an only daughter harshly..."

Xueyan told Daiyu in detail about the shops, money, fields and other plans in a soft voice.

No one cared, only Jia Lian listened bitterly at the side of the carriage.

It's really hard to reason. Originally, most of the father-in-law's family wealth can follow Lin Daiyu into Jia's mansion, which can be regarded as a solution to the immediate urgent need of the mansion.When Daiyu gets married in the future, a generous dowry will be given to her, and with the support of the Rongguo Mansion, is it still afraid that her husband's family will dare to treat her harshly?

It's good now, watching the Lin family's property divided into three, the imperial court takes the majority, and the treacherous Lin family takes the small one.

Looking at myself again, I only got 30 taels of cash, which is a small head among small heads!

What's more, my aunt's dowry is not generous. For people like them, there are rules for marrying daughters.

Even if Aunt Min was favored again in the past, she said that she would go against the sky, and the Gongzhong ruled that it would only be 1 taels.The old lady loves her daughter very much in private, and she subsidizes a full 5 taels.

But the total amount is only more than [-]. In addition to the expenses of these years, although there are land stores that continue to make money, it is not certain whether they will be able to get [-] silver.

As for the head of the Lin clan, he is even more greedy!

Riding on the horse, Jia Lian spat bitterly, and Lin Jin bit him to death, saying that the thousands of fertile fields and seventeen or eight shops were his own property, and it was impossible for outsiders to get them. What's more, when Daiyu gets married in the future, she will have to accompany her with 8000 taels, so that Uncle Lin can rest in peace.

Pooh!
When a person dies like a lamp extinguished, what kind of eyes should he close?Sister Feng often said this, and Jia Lian believed it.

It was really depressing not to be able to listen to Xueyan counting her family's wealth anymore. Jia Lian clamped his horse's belly angrily, and ran out tens of meters in a hurry.

Deaf ears, out of mind.

"I heard that it was an order from His Royal Highness. An angel came to help take care of the master's affairs. He even sent me 10 taels of cash to get me medicine. I searched all the good medicine shops in Yangzhou City!" Xueyan felt a little proud when she heard the sound of horseshoes going away, and her tone was not consciously lighter.

Hearing this, Daiyu laughed, and slapped Xueyan repeatedly: "Look at me, I'm the only one who is deaf and blind? You have accomplished so many things by yourself, I'm so impressed!"

Breathing slowly, he said again: "Don't tell me, if it wasn't for that little girl Baoyu talking about the properties of the medicine, I wouldn't have thought that the meatballs the old lady rationed for me were not as mellow as before. Hurry back tomorrow, and you can thank her for me. Such a careful and clever girl is a good one."

Probably it was Xueyan who talked about buying the medicine vividly, which made Daiyu get rid of the sad thoughts for a moment, and she became much lighter. She said a few words in one breath, and she didn't look out of breath like she used to.

Knowing that the effect of the medicine had begun to dissipate, she hurriedly pulled out a large cloak from the cage and spread it beside Daiyu, so that she could sleep peacefully for a while.

"What's the rush? When we arrive in the capital, the girl is feeling better. If that girl Yunzhu knows that you want to thank her, I don't know how happy she will be! But for now, the girl should sleep for a while."

Thinking of Yunzhu's appearance as a money fanatic, Xueyan also curled the corners of her mouth, no matter what her heart is, as long as it is for her girl, she is a good person.
