It was only four or five days after Daiyu accepted the reward, and suddenly one afternoon, Jia Zhengxia sent a girl to Xiaoxiang Pavilion and asked Daiyu to go to the study to talk. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Daiyu didn't know what it was, so she took Zijuan to Jia Zheng's study.

Jia Zheng was pacing back and forth in the study, and when he saw Daiyu coming, he hurriedly asked her to sit on the guest seat, ordered the little maid to serve tea, and sat down on the main seat, holding the teacup lid for a while, and then said with a smile: "I called you here because when I went down to the court today, the palace left me, saying that the construction of Suzhou Academy had a whereabouts, and the queen recommended me." ”

Daiyu adhered to the etiquette of juniors in front of their elders, and listened to Jia Zheng say: "On the day you said that you wanted to donate books, I also sighed that you are the only one among the juniors who has the most courage, Xiao is like your mother." Later, I learned that you not only donated books, but also almost all your family property. ”

Daiyu condensed slightly, Jia Zheng glanced at her, and said with both praise and disapproval in his eyes: "I didn't ask your opinion when I built the garden, and I tacitly agreed that they used the property left by Aunt Lin for private use." Later, the palace came to check, and after I knew it, I also complained about you for being rash and bold. There is nothing to blame for the fact that there is nothing to blame for the fact that the house is full of hustle and bustle, after all, it is the property left to you by your parents. ”

Daiyu lowered her eyes. Jia Zheng continued: "It was such an opportunity that made me suddenly realize an important thing. Our Jia family has been attacked for five generations, although the wealth, gold and silver are moving, there is no shortage of people like us, what is lacking is the reputation among those Qingliu scribes who entered the imperial examination. ”

"Although the concubine in the palace is in a high position, she is looking at the scenery and is dangerous inside. I thought hard and tried my best to restrain the people in the house, leaving no handle for those officials to catch. Who knew that the palace rewarded you, and the direction of the court's officials also changed. Not only me, but even the concubine is also highly valued by the emperor and the queen in the palace. Originally, I blamed you for being reckless and not knowing how to make a living with money, but now it seems that it is thanks to you. Jia Zheng said.

Daiyu got up and saluted, and even said "don't dare". Jia Zheng stroked his beard with a smile and said: "The emperor has already mentioned my five-grade Ministry of Works, and I will set off for Suzhou in half a month to start the construction of the academy." Do you have anything to bring, come and go back to me these days. ”

Daiyu nodded in response, took Zijuan out of Jia Zheng's study, entered the inner courtyard, and met a Taoist woman wearing a gray Taoist robe, a long white face, and a pair of eyes that looked around flexibly.

Lin Daiyu was startled and couldn't help but take two steps back. The Taoist woman had already seen Daiyu's style, and the purple cuckoo who was wearing a thin aqua blue jacket and lotus lotus color silk skirt behind her, with a golden hairpin on her head, knew that this was a noble person in the house, and hurriedly came forward to salute.

Zijuan saw that this Dao Po was reckless, and hurriedly took two steps forward, and said with a smile: "Why is Ma Dao Po free to come over today?" ”

Ma Daopo cracked a few wrinkles on her powdered face, grinned and showed a mouthful of smoky teeth, and said, "Come and exchange the name charm for Baoyu and a few buddies." Zijuan asked, "Have you ever seen your wife?" ”

Ma Daopo said with a smile: "I was about to go, but I happened to see the girl and the young lady here." ”

Lin Daiyu came to her senses and realized that this was Baoyu's named godmother, Ma Daopo. Later, Baoyu and Wang Xifeng fell into the art of ghosts, which was also a good thing she did. If the blue-faced ghost who used paper to twist her in the past, it should be a ghost secretly made by this Ma Daopo.

It's just that this Ma Daopo has just climbed to Jiafu now, and she hasn't made much money by taking advantage of the situation, so the fat powder on her face is not very good, her Taoist robe is also a little old, and her figure is not swollen, so it is a little different from the appearance in Daiyu's memory.

Daiyu thought about it, and didn't talk to Ma Daopo. Even if there was no contact in the previous life, this Ma Daopo could harm her, and even if she pleased her in this life, it would be useless. Just seeing that Baoyu also recognized her as a named godmother, this Ma Daopo still refuses to show mercy when she is harmed, and wants to kill him and Wang Xifeng together, so as to get paid from Aunt Zhao and Jia Huan, you know that this person doesn't care about anything except power and silver.

Ma Daopo also often goes in and out of the inner courtyard, knowing that the daughters of large families are extremely expensive and cannot be rushed. Although he guessed Daiyu's identity in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on his face, let alone pester Daiyu. So after saying a few words to Zijuan, he said goodbye and said that he was going to sit at Mrs. Wang's place, and respectfully took a few steps back and walked away.

Lin Daiyu walked straight forward with Zijuan, and Zijuan explained to Daiyu: "This Ma Daopo is the abbot of the Taoist temple outside, and I don't know what to say, so I coaxed the second wife to make her Baoyu's registered godmother, and since then, she has often come to the house, mostly to coax the old lady and Mrs. to donate a few catties of sesame oil." ”

Daiyu said: "I know, I have seen it from afar before, but I didn't recognize it at once. It's just that you don't get close to this woman, and you won't be a good person at first glance. ”

Zijuan smiled and said, "Who will talk to these people seriously? It's just that I'm afraid that she will hold a grudge and say two words to save face. Daiyu smiled and nodded.

As she walked, she couldn't help but turn her head and secretly thought in her heart: "This young lady's face is so strange. Obviously, it looks very noble, but I don't know that there is something strange there, not like the people here. ”

Just thinking about it, his footsteps had already walked to the door of the moon cave not far from the courtyard of Mrs. Wang. Ma Daopo suddenly turned her head, not beware of the darkness in front of her, and hit the sharp corner of the moon cave door with a "bang", and a vertical bulge suddenly appeared on her forehead.

The little girl who was leading the way far in front hurriedly turned around, and when she saw Ma Daopo crashing into the wall, she couldn't help but laugh "poof", and said to Ma Daopo in a voice like a silver bell: "Why didn't Daopo go out today to calculate a hexagram for herself, so she walked to the wall?" ”

Ma Daopo was not annoyed, she covered the bag on her head and said with a smile: "This is a goose all day long but was pecked by a goose." I count it for others all day long, who would think that they would have this experience too. Laughing, he still followed the little girl to Mrs. Wang's upper room.

Daiyu returned to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and Baoyu hurriedly came to ask her: "What did the master call you for, don't care what he says, you just ignore it, everything is for you and my grandmother." ”

Daiyu knew that Baoyu was afraid that Jia Zheng would blame her for donating a large sum of money, so she smiled and let Baoyu come into the house and sit down, saying, "Uncle didn't say anything about me. Just told me about the construction of Suzhou Academy, and the queen recommended my uncle, who was going to take up his post in a few days, and asked me what I wanted so that people could bring it. ”
