said that in the afternoon of this day, Lin Daiyu was studying in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and overheard Zijuan come in to report that Aunt You of the Second Master Sun's family was visiting.

Lin Daiyu was a little inexplicable in her heart.

To say that because of her godsister Ruan Rong, she is no stranger to Second Sister You.

But Second Sister You came to visit alone, but it was the first time in the world.

Lin Daiyu pondered for a while, and guessed that most of the other party was going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

In her heart, she is not worried but happy, if it is just the matter of Second Sister You, it will be okay, if it involves the Sun family, it can just repay a little favor.

Therefore, Lin Daiyu ordered Zijuan to invite people in, and on the other hand, she dressed up slightly in front of the dresser.

When she picked up the curtain and went outside, Second Sister You was holding tea and carefully examining the furnishings in the room.

Seeing Lin Daiyu coming out of the inner room, Second Sister You hurriedly skimmed the tea bowl, got up with a smile and greeted her: "I knew that Miss Lin had a good heart, but I never thought that even this house would be cleaned up so elegantly. ”

"But I'm just idle."

Lin Daiyu also smiled, and sat down with her again, but asked straight to the point: "Sister came to me, isn't there something wrong?" ”

This straightforwardness made Second Sister You forget what to say for a while.

However, she immediately reacted again, got up again and said, "I shouldn't have bothered Miss Lin, but I couldn't think of any other reason for a while, so I had to go into this garden first in the name of Sister Rong." ”

In the name of Ruan Rong?

Lin Daiyu was a little inexplicable when she heard this, although it is inconvenient for men to enter and exit this Grand View Garden, but Second Sister You, a female relative who is close to her family, has never been hindered.

I listen to what she has to say, and it doesn't seem to be a casual speech disease.

So I couldn't help but wonder: "What does my sister mean by this, is there anyone stopping you?" ”

"Not against me."

Second Sister You shook her head and smiled: "It's Miss Xing in your house." ”

Then, he told Xing Zhong that he wanted his daughter to be a concubine, and after being rejected several times, he begged in front of Mrs. Xing, but Mrs. Xing used it as a bargaining chip to blackmail the Sun family.

"Now the uncle of the Xing family is stopped outside the mansion, and there is no one who is willing to help pass the word, so he has no choice but to ask for the Ningguo Mansion next door, and my sister pushes me again."

Second Sister You sighed as she spoke, and said helplessly: "Because this matter involves my second master, I have no choice but to sneak in, so that there can be a communication between his father and daughter." ”

When Lin Daiyu was a child, her impression of this eldest aunt was actually better than that of her second aunt, but as time went by, her impression of her deteriorated.

But she really didn't expect that Mrs. Xing would be able to do so much in order to make money!

At that moment, there was a chivalrous spirit in his heart, and he said: "Sister, don't be impatient, I'll let someone invite Miss Xing." ”

After a pause, he added: "But if Miss Xing is unwilling to be a concubine, my sister will look at my face today, but she must not force it!" ”

Second Sister You was full of response.

So Lin Daiyu called Zijuan and ordered her to go to the Lotus Champs and ask Xing Xiuyan to come over and talk.

Who knew that Zijuan went this time, but he came back after half an hour, and he was alone when he went, and he was alone when he came.

"What's going on?"

Lin Daiyu frowned and said, "Is there really anyone who dares to stop it?" ”

Zijuan hurriedly explained: "The girl misunderstood, I went to the Lotus Lotus Pavilion to find out that Miss Xing was not there, I heard that she lived in the Lucui Nunnery yesterday." ”

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but hesitate to look at Second Sister You.

Seeing this, Lin Daiyu said: "If you have something to say, just look at my sister's face, and Sister You won't spread it outside!" ”

Zijuan then added: "I heard that it was because I persuaded the four girls to go to the spirit to do their filial piety, but the two of them had a dispute, so I went to the Lucui Nunnery overnight." ”

Lin Daiyu was bored again when she heard this, although she had already guessed that there must be some cause and effect in this, but Jia Xichun's approach was really unacceptable.

There is a miasma in his own house, no wonder Baoyu always complains about the filth of the world!

At this time, Zijuan continued: "Later, I went to the Lucui Nunnery, but I heard from Miaoyu that Miss Xing had just eaten at noon, and she was invited over by the Wuyuan side. ”

Went to the Lotus Garden?

At this time, Lin Daiyu finally understood why Zijuan didn't invite people back.

She and Xue Baochai were not on good terms, and even the maids under her were secretly competing.

If Xing Xiuyan was somewhere else, Zijuan didn't need to be instructed, so he would go straight to the past, but if he was in the Wuyuan, there would be more taboos for no reason.

Mo said that it was her, and even Lin Daiyu couldn't help frowning, and she didn't know for a while whether to send Zijuan to invite someone, or wait until Xing Xiuyan came out of the Wuyuan Garden.

Second Sister You also knew the competitive relationship between the two, and seeing that Lin Daiyu seemed to be in a dilemma, she hurriedly got up and said, "Otherwise, I just went over to find her, anyway, the reason is ready-made, just say that Xiangling asked me to send some things over." ”

Daiyu saw that she had even thought of a reason, so she didn't stop her, but just asked her to wait for a while, and then took out a booklet from the bedroom and handed it to Second Sister You.

"These are a few new poems written by Xiangling recently, you bring them over and ask Sister Bao to help correct them."

But it turned out that Xiangling was from the Xue family after all, and her identity was a little embarrassing, so she wrote poems, and it was not good to ask Xue Baochai to help with the evaluation, so she asked Lin Daiyu, who was also talented.

came and went, Lin Daiyu and her were also teachers and friends.

But said that Second Sister You got these poems, and her heart felt more down-to-earth, and she thanked Lin Daiyu at the moment, and rushed to Wuyuan under the guidance of the little maid.

…………

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

said that Xue Baochai was very appreciative of Xing Xiuyan, so he was one step ahead of others and learned about the contradiction between her and Jia Xichun.

This time, Xing Xiuyan was invited to the Wuyuan Garden, and she also felt that a girl's family would inevitably cause gossip in the nunnery, so she thought that she would simply stay in the Wuyuan for a few days, and then try to get the two back together.

In the afternoon, it happened that Li Kun came to visit again, and the three of them got together to say something, but they all seemed a little absent-minded.

Xing Xiuyan doesn't need to say more, she offended Jia Xichun and her aunt Mrs. Xing successively, although she doesn't regret it, she is inevitably a little worried in her heart.

And Li Kun came here for Aunt Xue, at this time, it was difficult to get out because of Xing Xiuyan, but his mind had already flown inside.

As for Xue Baochai......

She originally speculated that her mother's recent unusual behavior had something to do with Sun Shaozong - but after some testing yesterday, she failed to confirm this speculation.

Looking at Li Kun from time to time, looking into the bedroom, I suddenly became suspicious again, thinking about the rumored eldest sister-in-law, who is used to doing some fake phoenix tricks, could it be ......

Thinking of all this, she couldn't help but feel hot on her face.

However, if the mother really has something to do with Li Kun, it may not be a bad thing.

After all, my brother and sister-in-law are not worried, and I am getting older, and I will have to be separated from my mother one day.

If you can marry Baoyu, it's okay, if you marry someone else, your mother is alone, which is really reassuring.

At that time, if Li Kun can be by his side, he will be able to relieve loneliness.

Although this thought came out of filial piety, the red cloud on Xue Baochai's face couldn't help but weigh a little heavier.

Seeing this small talk, he was about to develop in the direction of the donkey's lips and the horse's mouth, and suddenly Ying'er came in to report that Aunt You of the Sun family had visited.

The three people in the hall were all stunned, and then Xue Baochai said curiously: "What is she doing here?" How did our family have any dealings with her? ”

Ying'er hurriedly said: "I heard that I was instructed by Xiangling to send a few poems, and I want to ask the girl to help comment on it." ”

"I see."

Xue Baochai nodded, but she was even more puzzled in her heart, because Xiangling asked Lin Daiyu to help her correct the poems, and she had already heard of it.

In the past two years, except for some gifts during the New Year's Festival, she has never seen Xiangling send a word.

Although he was still puzzled, everyone had already arrived, and it was always difficult to turn them away, so he confessed to Li Kun and Xing Xiuyan, and took the initiative to get up and go out.

Lin Daiyu and Second Sister You are quite familiar with each other, so they are much more casual with each other.

And Xue Baochai and Second Sister You have only met twice in the crowd, and they have never even spoken, so naturally it is not good to lack courtesy.

But after saying that it was not long, Xue Baochai and Second Sister You came in from outside side by side, and saw that only Xing Xiuyan was left in the hall, and there was no trace of Li Kun.

Xue Baochai knew that Li Kun must have gone to his mother's place, and he didn't know what it would be like for a while.

was subconsciously wanting to introduce Xing Xiuyan and Second Sister You, but Second Sister You smiled first: "Miss Xing is really here!" ”

Seeing that Xing Xiuyan was also generous, and said 'Aunt You', Xue Baochai suddenly remembered that Xing Xiuyan had lived in Sun's house for more than ten days, and he and Second Sister You naturally knew each other.

smiled at the moment: "Since I am an acquaintance, I don't have to bother here." ”

As he spoke, he raised the booklet in his hand and said with a smile: "It's rare that Xiangling sent poems this time, and my sister might as well help with the evaluation." ”

Xing Xiuyan was about to be pushed, and Second Sister You suddenly restrained her smile and said, "Actually, in addition to Xiangling, someone asked me to bring a message to Miss Xing." ”

Xing Xiuyan was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to have misunderstood something, and a layer of flushing suddenly appeared on his face, which was even better than all the previous accumulation of Xue Baochai.

I wanted to ask clearly, but my lips opened and closed slightly a few times, but I couldn't spit out half a word.

Seeing this, Xue Baochai couldn't help but have a misunderstanding, and sighed for Xue Zhen in his heart, but said with a smile in his mouth: "I'll see where my sister-in-law goes, you talk about yours." ”

As he spoke, he made a gesture and walked inside.

Second Sister You finally reacted at this time, knowing that they mistakenly thought that they were carrying a message for Sun Shaozong, so she hurriedly said: "The girl misunderstood, it was not someone else who asked me to deliver the message, but Ling Zun!" ”

As he spoke, he briefly recounted the matter of Xing Zhong being turned away and having to turn to Ning Guofu for help.

Xing Xiuyan suddenly changed color when she heard this, biting her cherry lip and hesitating for a while, but she shook her head resolutely and said, "Please ask my sister to tell my father, just say that I can't go to Sun's house with him right now." ”

"Why is that?"

Second Sister You was stunned at the moment, Xing Zhong had personally said that his daughter had agreed to the marriage, how could this be reversed?

Could it be that he is afraid that Jia Yu and his wife will not succeed?

But Na Jia Yu thinks that he is right, but where can he affect Sun Shaozong's private affairs?

Not to mention anything else, even Jia Yingchun is between the two, I am afraid that he will choose Sun Shaozong instead of his own father.

Second Sister You felt inexplicable, Xue Baochai, who was about to leave but didn't make it, roughly guessed Xing Xiuyan's thoughts.

At the moment, he hurriedly pulled Second Sister You aside and woke up quietly: How can there be a serious woman who will live in a man's house when she gets married?

Second Sister You suddenly realized this, and hurriedly said: "Girl, don't be weird, it's also that we didn't think about it enough for a while, you can wait in this mansion for a few days, and then come to pick you up when Lingzun is properly settled." ”
