—————————————————————

In the early morning of the second day, under the leadership of Princess Wujun, Daiyu followed Wanyu, Wanqing, Wanyun, and Wanrong into the palace to thank her.

Because during the new year's festival, there were many noble ladies, clan wives, and wives who came to see them, and the princess of Wu County did not stay in the palace to eat. Although the queen tried to persuade them to stay, she had to let them go back amidst waves of begging for an audience.

Before parting, the queen specifically told Daiyu not to forget about going to the palace for a banquet at thirty.Wanqing, Wanyun, Wanrong and the others only came to their senses at this moment. Only Wanyu could participate in such a palace banquet in the Wujun Prince's Mansion with the Wujun Princess, but now there is one more person, but it is too many. Lin Daiyu!Under the envious eyes of Wanyun and Wanrong, Daiyu responded with a smile, her expression calm and composed.After that, he bid farewell to the Empress Dowager, and returned to the Wujun Palace with Princess Wujun.

No matter what kind of thoughts the people in the Prince Wu's Mansion have, Daiyu stayed in the Prince Wu's Mansion for another two days, but she only got together with Wan Yu all day long, talking to each other.But on the morning of the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, Daiyu still packed up the cage and set off for Jia's mansion.Princess Wujun specially arranged for guards and put on the honor guard of the county head. Although Daiyu felt that it was unnecessary, she did not refuse.

When the guard of honor arrived at the entrance of Ningrong Street, Daiyu asked Madam Tang to issue an order to stop the guards from advancing. At this time, the Lai family members of Jia's mansion had already greeted them in person.Everyone Lai saw Daiyu's ceremonial guard from a distance, and stopped at the intersection, his heart was shocked, and he thought to himself: "Could it be that I came late?"Is this going back?All of a sudden, everyone was in a cold sweat in this big winter.

Daiyu didn't think too much about it, she only left two guards to wait for orders, and the rest immediately returned to the Prince Wu's Mansion. Madam Tang understood that the meaning of keeping two or all of them was exactly the same, so she didn't care. Dissuaded, gladly took the order and left.

When the guards began to turn around, everyone Lai was so frightened that he almost collapsed to the ground. He couldn't help speeding up and ran towards Daiyu's carriage, shouting as he ran, "Master! Master! Old slave I am late, please forgive me, the county lord!"

Lai just finished speaking, but saw that the guards had already left Ningrong Street with a guard of honor, and a red-topped and yellow-draped carriage was left in the middle of the road, with two guards standing beside it, and behind it was a Followed by two carriages with green curtains and blue tops.

Seeing this, everyone Lai breathed a sigh of relief, and their hearts fell back.Everyone Lai didn't care about wiping his sweat and ran a few more steps, to the front of the red-roofed carriage, seeing that Madam Tang was about to return to the carriage, he wanted to stop it, but was stopped by the guards.

Nanny Tang turned around and looked back, she naturally recognized everyone Lai, but she didn't show it, she just pretended not to know her, and asked with a straight face, "Who are you? Why?" Everyone Lai quickly squeezed out a smile and said, "Old Nu Rongguo Mansion..."

Before everyone Lai finished speaking, Madam Tang scolded angrily: "Stop talking nonsense! Rongguo Mansion has been taken away by the Supreme Emperor long ago! Where did Rongguo Mansion come from?"

Nanny Tang has been with Princess Wujun all year round, and her eyes are not something that ordinary nanny can learn. Everyone Lai was taken aback immediately, and quickly changed her words: "This old slave is the first-class general's mansion. The housekeeper of General Jia’s mansion, the old matriarch sent me to meet the county magistrate.” Everyone Lai felt aggrieved after speaking, but there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, Daiyu made a sound from the carriage, the voice was like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, it was really sweet.I only heard Daiyu ask: "Why did Madam stay here?" Madam Tang hurriedly replied, "I told the county lord that a person came to stop the car, saying that it was Mrs. Jia who sent him to meet the county lord, but this person couldn't speak. I don’t know, I don’t know what’s on my mind.”

When Mr. Lai heard this, he felt even more wronged in his heart, so he hurriedly said: "Master Lai, I belong to Mr. Lai, we have met!" After Mr. Lai finished speaking, the carriage was quiet for a while, and then saw another person He opened the curtain of the car and got out, and it was Nanny Sun who came.

Nanny Sun naturally listened to everything in the carriage, and understood that Nanny Tang just wanted to establish prestige for Daiyu, so she got off the carriage and immediately looked at everyone Lai.Seeing Nanny Sun, everyone Lai hurriedly smiled and said, "Old sister, I don't have any bad intentions. It's true that the old lady sent me here. You have to testify to me!"

Grandma Sun also quickly laughed and said, "Look at what old sister said, how can I not know you? But sister Tang is the princess of Wu County to the county master, so there are people who don't know you."

After finishing speaking, Sun Nanny pretended to apologize to Tang Nanny: "Sister Tang has a lot of adults. This is indeed a person who can be used by Mrs. Jia's side. I also stayed in Jia's mansion when I was young." Seeing this, the nanny nodded, glanced at everyone Lai and said, "In that case, let's lead the way quickly, the old lady must be waiting in a hurry."

When everyone Lai heard this, he didn't care whether he was wronged or held back, he hurriedly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, isn't the old lady in a hurry? I got the news yesterday that the county magistrate will come to the manor today. I'll be waiting for you early." As he spoke, he led the way to the first-class general's mansion.

When Daiyu drove to the gate of the first-class general's mansion, the main gate had already been opened, and Daiyu couldn't help sighing that the scene when she first came here was very different from what it is now!
The carriage entered directly through the middle gate and stopped at the Yimen Gate. Nanny Sun and Master Lai opened the curtain with their own hands, and Zhixuan who was on the carriage behind had already moved a stool.I saw that the stool was also made of sour branch wood, with carved gourd, vase and lotus patterns, the dewdrops on it were even clear, and the corners were painted with gold lacquer to depict Wanfu, Xiangyun and even exquisitely.

Daiyu's stepping stool is a bit more refined than the decorations used by ordinary wealthy households to decorate the appearance, even people like Jia's family are reluctant to use it to step on their feet.

Seeing this, everyone in Lai was secretly surprised. Knowing that Daiyu had a good relationship with Jia Lian and his wife, he made up his mind in his heart that he would climb up to this high branch.Seeing Nanny Tang getting out of the car and helping Daiyu out with her own hands, Lai everyone hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't worry, the county lord, slow down, it's already at the door of the house."

Daiyu just nodded and smiled slightly, but didn't say anything, she brought Lily of the Valley, Shinan, An'er, Ning'er, Qinghe, Xueyan, Xia He, Lvqing, and eight servant girls, big and small, to come up.Everyone Lai only looked at the ostentation, she was bigger than the old lady, there were ten servant girls and two nuns, and she couldn't help but whisper.

As soon as Master Lai led Daiyu in for a few steps, he saw Wang Xifeng and Li Wan leading Tanchun Xichun and Shi Xiangyun out to welcome them.

Daiyu hurriedly smiled and went forward to pull Wang Xifeng's hand and said with a smile: "I'm sorry to bother my sister-in-law to come out to meet me, but I dare not come after this." Donger'er came out? Isn't it because you came and try someone else?" Daiyu smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Yu'er has accepted the love of sister-in-law."

After speaking, Daiyu looked at Li Wan again, and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I saw Mrs. Zhu, how is Lan'er? I brought him a lot of new books today." She and Tanchun Xichun met each other again. , Daiyu looked Shi Xiangyun up and down with her head tilted, then smiled and said: "I heard that your uncle will send a foreign post after the next year?"

Shi Xiangyun laughed and said, "I just thought Sister Lin would ignore me! She is a well-informed person." After speaking, Shi Xiangyun came up and held Daiyu's hand on the other side of Wang Xifeng.

A few people chatted and laughed, then passed through the hallway and entered the hanging flower gate.From a distance, I saw Yuanyang, the most proud person beside Mrs. Jia, walking back and forth in front of the large marble screen on the red sandalwood shelf, looking very anxious.

Seeing this, Shi Xiangyun smiled and said, "Sister Yuanyang, look who is here? Don't grind the ground somewhere, and report to the old lady as soon as possible."

Yuanyang looked back and saw Daiyu walking in between Shi Xiangyun and Wang Xifeng.Li Wan, Tanchun and Xichun were following beside him, and a large group of Hulala followed behind.Not to mention Suyun, Shishu, Ruhua, Cuilu and others, they naturally followed behind. Xiaohong, who was newly promoted by Wang Xifeng, also followed, but there were more than a dozen other people!
Seeing this, Yuanyang couldn't help being taken aback, and looked carefully, there was the smiling Zhixuan who knew her, Heather Lily of the Valley, and the little Qinghe, so she knew that these people all came with Daiyu.

After thinking it over and seeing it clearly, Yuanyang smiled and said: "The old lady has been waiting for the girl since last night! The servant girl must hurry up to announce the good news!" After speaking, Yuanyang hurriedly turned around and ran inward.Seeing this, Mother Tang frowned dissatisfied, but seeing that Daiyu didn't express anything, she suppressed her dissatisfaction.

It's getting cold, and Mrs. Jia is getting older, so she can't stand in the courtyard and wait like Daiyu did when she first came here, for fear of blowing the wind.

Seeing Amber standing outside the door, everyone Lai hurried forward to open the door curtain for Daiyu together with Huber, letting Daiyu in.Except for Xiaoxiao Zhixuan, Aunt Tang and Nanny Sun, Daiyu and the other little maids were all left outside. Daiyu knew that as long as she was doing well, no one would neglect them, so it was fine. I'm so worried.

Walking into the main room, the room was smoky and warm, but it was also very stuffy. Not to mention Mammy Tang, Nanny Sun and Daiyu also frowned.

The old lady Jia didn't give Daiyu a chance to think too much, and when she saw Daiyu coming in, she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Come and have a look, grandma!" Stop in two steps.

Daiyu was about to kneel down to salute, but Yuanyang pushed her towards Mrs. Jia, and she laughed and said, "Miss, don't make more salutes, the old lady can't wait any longer!" The wife also laughed and said: "That's right, they are all the same family, where did those gifts come from? It won't be like this in the future!"

As the old lady Jia said, she held Daiyu in her arms and rubbed it for a while, making everyone around her amused, and even Mrs. Wang had an amiable look on her face at this time.Only Wang Xifeng saw the impatience flashing in Daiyu's eyes, so she hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Old ancestor, stop rubbing! My sister is thin, but I can't help it!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Jia finally let go of Daiyu, held her hand and looked her up and down for a long while.

Mrs. Jia looked back at Wang Xifeng with some uncertainty and said, "Look at your sister, she's lost weight." As she said that, Mrs. Jia frowned and said, "After all, it's not as good as at home. There is no one who is not wronged." .”

As soon as Mrs. Jia finished speaking, Nanny Tang coughed lightly from the side.Old lady Jia looked up, only to realize that Princess Wujun's people were still following Daiyu!
Nanny Tang was displeased with Mrs. Jia for slandering the Prince Wu's mansion so much, so she reminded Mrs. Jia that she was still here!But Mrs. Jia was also very displeased with where she was getting in the way, so she asked Wang Xifeng, "Is your sister's house tidy?"

Wang Xifeng naturally understood what Old Madam Jia meant, but she didn't want to refute her idea, so she smiled and said, "It was prepared early in the morning. Didn't the previous Linglong Courtyard be demolished during the construction of the garden? Xichun said, let us Daiyu lives with her in the Ouxiangxie area."

Daiyu laughed and said, "That's good! It feels like a field of lotus leaves. Although I'm afraid there are only remnants of lotus at this time, isn't it just right to leave remnants of lotus to listen to the sound of rain? It's just that there are still remnants in the mansion." charge?"

Xichun hurriedly smiled and said: "Yes! I said that Sister Lin must like it, so I didn't let them pull it out. Te Teer kept Sister Lin!"

Old lady Jia looked at Daiyu very dissatisfied and said, "Little girl, why are you listening to the sound of residual lotus rain? It's nothing like this!" Then she turned her head and said to Wang Xifeng, "What are you doing with me?" Xi girl has brought your sister's family, go and tidy up all the cages first, and come back to pick her up later."
