Since then, Wang Xifeng joked with Lin Daiyu several times, saying that he used my family's things, that is, my family's people and the like, and also said, "Brother Bao and Sister Lin marry and marry, they don't need the money in the official, the old lady has her own ladder to take it out!"

Jiafu must have spent a lot of money to marry a daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law, and there is no need for official money, what kind of money is the old lady's ladder money? Is it that the wool is out of the sheep, which is the property of the Lin family, and the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders?

In addition, the whereabouts of the money managed by Jia's mother are likely to be misappropriated by the Jia family.

Soon after Lin Daiyu's father died, Rongguofu spent a huge amount of money to build the Grand View Garden, and at the beginning of "Dream of Red Mansions", Cao Xueqin said through Leng Zixing's mouth that the Jia family had already eaten grain, and it was mentioned many times in the book that Rongguofu was a little unable to make ends meet. In such a short period of time, such a luxurious garden was built, coupled with the cost of Yuanchun Province, the silver expenditure was like flowing water, where did so much money come from, I can't help but be suspicious.

Because of this, Long Xi (Zixi) wanted to persuade Daiyu to return as soon as possible and return to her father.

At this time, Lin Ruhai was not seriously ill and was conscious, if Daiyu told his father all the important points, then Lin Ruhai should have converted the inheritance of real estate, fields and other inheritances into silver in advance, and handed over most of the silver to Daiyu to manage by herself.

In this way, Daiyu will no longer need to live a life of sending people under the fence, relying on people's snorts, and "three hundred and fifty days a year, the wind and frost and swords are strictly pressing".

Moreover, once she becomes a "Bai Fumei" in the real sense, who will stop her marriage with Baoyu?

Of course, Long Xi (Zixi) also has her own wishful thinking: once Bao Dai gets married, she will be the master of the house as the lady in Rongguo Mansion. And Long Xi (Zixi), as Daiyu's dowry maid and right-hand man, is naturally able to help Daiyu and contribute to the revival of Rongguo Mansion!

Long Xi (Zixi) tried his best to talk to Daiyu for half an hour, and finally made Daiyu, who was addicted to hazy first love, like an empowerment, and her mouth suddenly opened.

She immediately repaired a letter and sent her confidant to bring it back to his father, so that his father could send someone to take her home.

The traffic in this era is not so convenient, and it will take some time to come and go this time, Longxi (Zixi) asked Daiyu to wait patiently, and often solved it on weekdays to solve problems for her.

After a month, Mrs. Wang's maiden sister Aunt Xue, her son Xue Pan, and her daughter Xue Baochai's family entered Beijing and lived in the Lixiang Courtyard in the northeast corner.

Xue Pan is a bully and don't talk about him, that Bao girl is indeed a beautiful woman with ice muscles and jade bones and a good character as described in the book, and her talent is not below Daiyu.

But after a few days of observation, Long Xi (Zixi) didn't find anything particularly outstanding about Baochai!

Maybe it's because her consciousness has crossed into Daiyu's personal maid, and followed her all the way from south to north, Long Xi (Zixi) first had a close relationship with Daiyu in his heart, and then looked at Baochai, he couldn't help but compare her and Daiyu together in his heart!

Or maybe Baochai deliberately hid it clumsy and kept himself from being too sharp, right?

In short, Long Xi (Zixi) didn't think that Baochai was much stronger than Daiyu, or let's put it this way, the two are not equal, each has its own merits!

But the people in Jiafu don't seem to see it that way, and from time to time they say some rumors, such as "Miss Bao behaves open-mindedly and is safe at any time, Miss Lin is lonely and self-promising, there is no dust under her eyes, and love makes a little sex" and the like, Long Xi (Zixi) doesn't know where these rumors came from, and they are spreading, but they seem to have become true, which makes her feel very unfair.

Long Xi (Zixi) couldn't help but be a little puzzled: Sister Lin is so good, she treats people very sincerely, and she never shouts evil to her subordinates, why can't the subordinates in this mansion see her good?

After a while, even Daiyu herself was too lazy to be angry, plus Baochai treated Dai and said that Yu was not bad, Daiyu also went to Lixiangyuan from time to time to visit the door, and Baochai got along quite well, but occasionally saw Baoyu was also there Baochai, the two talked very happily, and took out their respective Baoyu and golden locks to "compare psychic", Daiyu will also eat a little vinegar.

Gradually, it was rumored in the house that Baochai had a golden lock, and it must be matched with jade to achieve the so-called "golden and jade good fate".

Long Xi (Zixi) was like a mirror in his heart: There is jade in this mansion, who else is there besides Baoyu? It seems that Baochai can't enter the palace, so Aunt Xue retreats and wants Baoyu to be her son-in-law, so she deliberately joins forces with Mrs. Wang to release such a rumor.

She saw that Daiyu often cried to the moon because of this, sighed for a long time, and really felt sorry for Daiyu.

After the year, Jia's mother finally realized that it was not in line with the etiquette for her grandson and granddaughter to live in the same suite, and began to clean up the wings on both sides, giving Baoyu on one side and Daiyu on the other, the two lived separately, but they were in the same large courtyard, and their daily life was also in Jia's mother's upper room, and the relationship naturally became more and more intimate, different from other sisters.

Daiyu understood Jia's mother and promoted Longxi (Zixi) to be a first-class girl, and Jia's mother also agreed.

At night, Daiyu asked Long Xi (Zixi) to sleep with her on a bed, while Zijuan slept on a kang in another room in the wing.

A few days later, Lin Ruhai really sent the housekeeper Xu Mo and his wife to pick up Daiyu home in person, and also brought Lin Ruhai's handwritten letter, the content of which was nothing more than thanking Jia's mother and others for taking care of Daiyu, and he missed his only daughter, and wanted to take Daiyu back to Yangzhou to share her family.

Jia's mother was also very worried, saying that she was not worried that her granddaughter would return to Jiangnan alone, so she specially named Jia Lian and asked him to go with her.

Daiyu excused herself several times, but Jia's mother insisted that Jia Lian go with her, but it was difficult to refuse, and Daiyu had no choice but to give up.

The day of returning to Jiangnan was quickly set, Snow Goose and Long Xi (Zixi) were busy packing their luggage with Zijuan every day, and when all the items were packed, it was also the day of departure, Long Xi (Zixi) sat in the carriage, arrived at the dock from Rongguofu, and boarded the boat again, but did not follow the road from last year, but took the sea route down to Jiangnan.

When they arrived at the gate of the Lin Mansion, except for Daiyu, the rest of the people had to get off the car and dismount.

This Lin Mansion is also a new place in the eyes of Long Xi (Zixi), she followed behind Daiyu's sedan chair, directly entered the second gate, and bypassed the big courtyard in the middle, and turned into a courtyard in the east.

As soon as Daiyu got out of the sedan chair, she couldn't help crying first, Zijuan hurriedly leaned over to help Daiyu wipe her tears, and Long Xi (Zixi) had no choice but to stand up under the urging of Mama Wang's eyes, even if she couldn't help Daiyu wipe her tears, at least she could use her thin body to help Daiyu block the wind.

Without waiting for everyone to enter the house, Lin Ruhai personally came out to greet his beloved daughter, Lin Daiyu collected her tears, and greeted her with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, "Daddy......"

Before she could finish saying hello, she was interrupted by the housekeeper's lady, "Girl, you're finally back!" She ignored Mama Wang's words and saluted Daiyu first.

"Yu'er. "Although Lin Ruhai is middle-aged, his eyebrows are still heroic, with a warm and jade-like bookish atmosphere, but he is a handsome uncle who has reached middle age!

Lin Ruhai told Daiyu by the way that he had a stubborn disease in the liver and gastrointestinal tract, often had liver pain, diarrhea, and couldn't eat meat.

Daiyu said: "Zixi, the maid next to me, knows the way of diet therapy, if my father can trust my daughter, my daughter and Zixi will help my father regulate his body together." ”

Lin Ruhai was in tears, but he smiled with tears, and said: "If you have this filial piety, your father will always come to comfort you." It's just my own body, and I naturally know it. No matter how many apricot forest holy hands can't rejuvenate, a little girl is afraid that it is also ...... At most, it's just a little more time! Although some of the words in the letter you sent were vague and tactful, my father understood it. It's hard for you to have such insight at such a young age! Daddy can rest assured even if he is under Jiuquan. Daddy has ordered people to exchange the property, fields, and shops into gold, and most of them will be handed over to you, so you can keep them. In the future, I will rely on them!"

Daiyu couldn't cry.

After Daiyu returned to the Lin Mansion, only half a year later, Lin Ruhai couldn't support it.

For most of the past six months, Daiyu served decoctions and therapeutic foods in front of Lin Ruhai's couch day and night, and most of the time Long Xi (Zixi) accompanied her.

Lin Ruhai has been sick for a long time, and the description is gradually withering.

One winter night, he finally didn't get through, ran out of oil and dried up, and drove the crane west.

Daiyu was overly sad and fell seriously ill, but fortunately, Long Xi (Zixi) and Zijuan took care of her, and Daiyu also asked Long Xi (Zixi) to assist Steward Qin and his wife as housekeepers.

Long Xi (Zixi) is very shrewd and capable, and he cooperates seamlessly with Steward Qin and his wife, so that Jia Lian can't take advantage of the loophole at all, so he has to leave a month later.

Daiyu was very grateful to Long Xi (Zixi) and offered to marry her to become a sister of Jinlan, and Long Xi (Zixi) became Daiyu's sister with a different surname, and their feelings for each other went further.

By the time Daiyu was all cured, it was already the middle of spring the following year.

Daiyu kept filial piety at home for a year, closed doors, just read some poems and songs every day, and almost all the housekeeping matters were handed over to Longxi (Zixi) and Qin Steward and his wife.

Long Xi (Zixi) boiled some soup almost every day, let Daiyu eat it, conditioned her body, and urged Daiyu to exercise more, teaching her yoga skills to Daiyu.

Daiyu has been recuperating for a while, and her body is getting better, and it doesn't seem like she used to have to be accompanied by medicine jars every day.

As soon as Daiyu's filial piety period expired, those matchmakers in Yangzhou almost broke through the door of the Lin Mansion, but they were all politely rejected by Daiyu to Longxi (Zixi).
