Chapter 64: Zijuan asks Daiyu in the middle of the night
Jia Baoyu was making a lot of trouble with Lin Daiyu, when she happened to rush over, she saw the situation and hurriedly grabbed Baoyu: "My good second master, my wife is looking for you, you go with the slave maid, don't let your wife wait!" ”
"What is my wife looking for me?" As soon as Jia Baoyu heard that Mrs. Wang was looking for him, he quickly quieted down and asked with a frown.
The attacker hurriedly replied: "The slave and maid don't know, it's important to think about it, otherwise the slave and maid wouldn't be so anxious to find the second master." ”
"What's the urgency?" Jia Baoyu said a little irritably, he hadn't seen Sister Lin yet, so he naturally didn't want to leave like this.
"How can this slave and maid know, if you think it's the master looking for the second master to meet the guest, maybe the second master should go with the slave and maid." The attacker hurriedly replied, she knew that Baoyu was very afraid of the master, so she took Jia Zheng's name to say something.
As soon as Jia Baoyu heard that it was related to Jia Zheng, she instantly became a little wilted, so she had to say helplessly: "Sister Lin waited for me to see my wife, and I came to see you when I was free!" ”
Then he glanced at Mama Li and the others hatefully, and followed the attacker with extreme depression.
After Jia Baoyu left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, this battle to block Jia Baoyu, everyone was exhausted, especially the four main little girls were tired and almost collapsed on the ground.
Lin Daiyu returned to the room, and began to cry silently, she saw Mama Li come in, hurriedly put away her tears, and said sadly: "In the past, I only thought that the second brother was an understanding person, and he didn't want to think about it. ”
Since Mama Li taught Daiyu, she has fallen in love with this little girl with Zhong Lingyuxiu, and she has long taught Daiyu as her own daughter, and now she is sad to see Daiyu, and she hurriedly persuaded her: "Don't be angry, girl, in my opinion, this son of the Jia family is a person who can't be carried, and he is still messing around in the fat powder pile when he is so old, and now there is no rule." ”
"I also said those bastard words that damaged the girl's reputation, the girl did a very good job today, if it was passed on by the Jia family, what reputation would the girl have."
Lin Daiyu was even more sad when she heard this, and she was afraid that it would affect the reputation of the Lin family, and said worriedly: "Now they don't know how to arrange me, they live in their house, but they turn away their second master, so they have to give me a ruthless charge." ”
"Don't worry about the girl, this matter is just to say it, and the girl is also reasonable, everyone will only praise the girl for keeping the etiquette." Mama Li comforted.
She has been a nurturing grandmother in several noble families in Beijing, and she has never seen a family son as confused as Jia Baoyu, thinking that Jia Baoyu is not a person who can be relied on, so she thought about persuading Daiyu to stay away from this Jia family son: "Girl, compared with this Jia family's son and the Lu family's uncle, which one can be relied on more?" ”
"Why do you ask that?" Lin Daiyu wondered.
But after thinking for a while, Daiyu still replied: "Naturally, the cousin of the Lu family is more outstanding, the cousin supported the Lu family's family business a few years ago, and he is also very good to Sister Zhiyu, and arranges everything for Sister Zhiyu, the second brother can't do it." ”
She wanted to say that Baoyu was still young and would be fine in a few years, but she knew Baoyu's temperament, so she didn't talk about age, not to mention that she had heard her father mention that the Lu family's cousin was thirteen or fourteen years old when he was thirteen or fourteen years old, and he saved a huge family business, and Baoyu is now thirteen years old, even compared with the same age, Baoyu is slightly inferior.
"Although the old slave doesn't know what the old man thinks, I can see that the old man treats the uncle of the Lu family like a son, and I think it's for the girl!"
Mama Li said ambiguously, she naturally knew that Lin Ruhai treated Lu Jing like this, just to find a backer for Daiyu in the future, not to recruit Lu Jing as a son-in-law.
But she saw Jia Baoyu with her own eyes today, and felt that Jia Baoyu was really not a good match, so she didn't agree much with Lin Ruhai's desire to marry Daiyu to the Jia family.
Mama Li thought about it and persuaded: "The girl should make it clear with the son of the Jia family earlier, and it should be broken!" ”
Lin Daiyu fell silent when she heard this, she and Baoyu grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and the relationship between the two is incomparable to others.
Although she and Lu Jing had only been in contact for a few months, they touched her a lot.
When she originally lived in Jiafu, she had always been worried about her father, and she was still young at that time, so she had no other thoughts, and she only had brother and sister feelings and gratitude to Baoyu, and she was grateful to Baoyu for taking care of her when she entered Jia's house alone.
Now that she has experienced so many things, especially after knowing that her mother and aunt have some grievances, she has no idea about Baoyu in this regard.
Since leaving Gusu, she has often picked up the poetry books and joke books that Lu Jing gave her to read, especially the poem that made her admire Lu Jing's talent.
In the first few days after leaving, she still missed the Lu family brothers and sisters from time to time, and sometimes missed her cousin even more than Zhiyu's sister, and it was from then on that she was sure of her thoughts.
After Lin Daiyu figured out this, she said to Mama Li: "Why did Mama say this, Daiyu is only grateful to the second brother, and has no other thoughts!" ”
"That's good, with the old slave's eyesight, this son of the Jia family is not a person who can be relied on, it's good that the girl can distinguish it by herself!" Mama Li stopped at the point, for fear that it would backfire, and she didn't say much more, after all, Daiyu had to make up her own mind about this matter.
"Well, thank you Mama for thinking about Daiyu!" Lin Daiyu said, she immediately thought of the grievances between her mother and her aunt, Baoyu is making such a fuss today, and she doesn't know how the second aunt secretly hates her.
At the same time, she was also more curious about what kind of grievances her mother had with her second aunt back then, and even her father was so cautious that he didn't let her know, but just warned her to be careful.
Although Lin Daiyu rarely shows it, she knows that the entire Jia family, and only her grandmother and Baoyu are sincere to her.
The eldest aunt only has a face-to-face affection for her, and although the second aunt is kind on the face, she doesn't want to see her in her heart.
The eldest sister-in-law, Li Kun, has not usually had much contact, but Sister Feng takes good care of her, but most of it is to please her grandmother, and she doesn't know how much sincerity she has.
Yingchun is quite concerned about her, and Xichun also said that Tanchun is relatively cold to her because of the relationship between her second aunt.
This night, Lin Daiyu lay on the bed and tossed and turned, worrying too much in her heart and unable to sleep.
First, I was worried that my father was working at home, second, I didn't know what the result would be when my father entered Beijing this time, and third, I was thinking about what happened to Zhiyu's sister and Huaijin's cousin now.
Especially when she thought of Lu Jing, she felt a little ashamed, and she didn't know if her father was as Mama Li said.
However, she misses those days in Gusu very much, and only thinks that those days are the happiest days when she grows up, Lin Daiyu stroked the poetry collection that Lu Jing gave her by the pillow, and her heart was full of shy sweetness for a while.
"Girl, what's wrong with you?" Zijuan was keeping vigil for Lin Daiyu, and seeing Daiyu tossing and turning there, she hurriedly got up and asked.
"I can't sleep!" Lin Daiyu replied shallowly.
"The girl is still thinking about the day?" Zijuan asked.
Seeing that Daiyu didn't answer, she said to herself: "Originally, the slave maid also thought that Bao Er Ye was a good one, but now I don't seem to think about the girl, now that the girls are older, they are not as good as before, Bao Er Ye is still like a young man, if he is really good for the girl, he should take advantage of the fact that the old man and the old lady can still protect the girl, and return to the old lady!" ”
Lin Daiyu didn't wait for Zijuan to continue, and then interrupted her: "Don't talk nonsense, what can the old lady protect me!" ”
Lin Daiyu remembered that her father had an accident this time, and the Jia family sent him back to Yangzhou, if there was no grandmother nodding here, she wouldn't believe it.
"Girl, don't blame me for talking too much, now the old lady is fine, the slave maid said something taboo, if the old lady can't protect the girl one day, the girl doesn't know what it will be like in the house!" Zijuan continued to persuade.
Although she rarely walks around, she has been watching the situation in the house coldly, she knows that there are not many people in the house who treat the girl sincerely, and many people have some criticism of the girl, but they are in the way of the old lady, and they dare not show it openly, if the old lady is not there one day, they will definitely join forces to bully the girl.
"Don't talk nonsense, I can stay here forever, and when my father cleans up, I'll go back!" Lin Daiyu said.
Today's events made her even more devastated in the Jia family, and she just thought that she would move back to her own house when her father cleaned up.
"But what about the girl and the second master?" Zijuan said hesitantly, anyone with a discerning eye in the house can see that the old lady has been arranging the marriage of the girl and Baoyu, and the girl and the second master of Bao have always been childhood sweethearts, and the two have no guesses.
"What's the matter with Baoyu, don't chew your tongue, I only have gratitude to the second brother in my heart, and I don't mean anything else." Lin Daiyu said.
However, she was a little worried in her heart, even Zijuan thought so, didn't the rest of the Jia family think that she and Baoyu had a personal relationship, and they were even more upset when they thought of this, and it was difficult to sleep.
Zijuan understood what Daiyu meant, and didn't say anything about it, but she thought in her heart: "I'm afraid it's impossible for the girl and Baoyu." ”
However, she immediately thought that the girl's marriage would ultimately depend on the master, according to what she had learned recently, the master wanted to marry the girl to Baoyu, she sighed in her heart, and she didn't know what the girl would think at that time.
Lin Daiyu saw that Zijuan was no longer talking, so she asked, "What do you think, will you follow me to Lin's house when the time comes, or stay here?" ”
Zijuan was silent when she heard this, and after thinking for a long time, she replied, "Zijuan wants to follow the girl." ”
"Okay, I'll go to my grandmother and ask for your deed of sale when I'm Ming'er." Lin Daiyu said that she was also extremely happy that Zijuan could stay by her side.
"Hmm!" Zijuan replied that although she had already made a decision, she still had some gains and losses in her heart.
If it weren't for the affection that the girl had treated her over the years, she would not have been willing to leave the Jia family, after all, in her heart, the Jia family was a national mansion, and the power was much greater than that of the Lin family.
Her father once said that the brother who attacked the people was in front of Baoyu because of the attacker, so he relied on the Jia family to make a comeback, and because she served Miss Lin, their family also borrowed the name of the Jia family several times.
"Zijuan, go to sleep, don't worry about me, I'll think about it myself!" Lin Daiyu thought about the second half of the night in a daze, and fell asleep in a daze.
