Sure enough, Jia Lian arrived after a while, and Jia's mother instructed him to escort Daiyu to Yangzhou and help deal with the matter.

When Baoyu came back and knew that Sister Lin was leaving, she was reluctant for a while, but her father was seriously ill, and he couldn't stop him. At night, I sat sullenly in the room, and suddenly said, "Otherwise, I'll go with Sister Lin." ”

The attacker hurriedly dispelled his thoughts, "Don't make a mess, Miss Lin is going back to see her father, and besides, where do you have time, the master has to ask you about your school every day." ”

Baoyu herself knows that this is impossible, but how can Sister Lin's body stand this, if her uncle is not good, she doesn't know what to be sad about, and she can't be comforted by her side, so she is always not at ease.

Jiang Yan came over and handed him tea, "If the second master is worried about Miss Lin, it is better to ask Zijuan to pay more attention, it is estimated that it will take more than half a year to go, and the things you need to bring must be prepared." Although Zijuan definitely doesn't need him to remind him, it's better to find him something to do, so as not to have any more whimsical ideas, and people will go to him to join in the fun.

As soon as Baoyu heard her suggestion, she nodded again and again, got up and said, "I'll go find Zijuan!" "I don't care that it's already the second watch now.

The attacker stopped making the bed and grabbed him, "You don't look at the time, Miss Lin must have rested, wouldn't it disturb her if you went to make a noise." "It's good to talk about it, so he promised to go again tomorrow morning.

Because Lin Ruhai was already seriously ill, he was afraid that he would not be able to survive the father and daughter and not see each other for the last time, so Daiyu Jia Lian set off for Yangzhou the next day. Jia's mother and a few sisters sent her out of Yimen, Baoyu rode a horse and sent her to the dock, Daiyu was worried about her father, but she barely bothered to deal with everyone, and she didn't need to be for Baoyu, immersed in her own thoughts, and didn't say a word along the way.

Seeing that Daiyu didn't speak and didn't care, Baoyu pulled Daiyu and instructed her, and carefully told Zijuan to take care of her, and then reluctantly watched her board the boat.

After sending Daiyu away, Baoyu was depressed for a few months, thinking that he would get used to it in a few days, but who knew that it lasted so long, and even the excitement of the New Year didn't make him better. When Jia's mother saw it, she asked him to take him to the garden for a walk, and Jia Zhen in Dongfu invited him to go over to relieve his boredom. People are eating, drinking, and having fun in it, and he can't keep a bitter face, but it's better to go a few more times.

Baoyu has to go to school during the day, and most of them have time in the afternoon and evening, so Jiang Yan and they are miserable, the weather is still very cold in early spring, and the temperature drops sharply at night, and the masters naturally can't freeze in the house.

Jiang Yan is not stupid to wait, she stood for a while on this day, and saw that the people inside were joking and having fun, no one paid attention to this, so she sneaked away when she found an opportunity.

What she was familiar with in the Ning Mansion was the maid next to her grandmother's wife, and everyone in the You family was serving inside, Jiang Yan thought that Qin Keqing was sick now, and Baozhu Ruizhu had nothing else to do except take care of her, so she was going to find them to get some food to pad her stomach.

Jiang Yan walked all the way to the backyard, the more she walked, the more deserted she became, and the bustle in the upper room and here seemed to be two worlds. The others in Qin Keqing's courtyard didn't know where to go, only a few elderly mothers-in-law were guarding inside, and they also left their posts and gathered in a small corner room to drink and gamble. Jiang Yan entered the courtyard, but no one stopped her. She walked inside suspiciously, although Qin Keqing was sick, but in the end, it was the eldest grandmother in this mansion, why did these subordinates dare to be so sloppy, and You Shi didn't care? Isn't their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law on a good relationship?

Jiang Yan was thinking about it, when she suddenly heard something coming intermittently, it sounded really a little infiltrating at night, there was still a patient here, wouldn't it be even more blind to hear it. She was a bold artist, but she was not afraid of this, she found a broom in her hand, and walked lightly to the sound, she wanted to see which one was pretending to be a ghost here.

The closer she got, the clearer the sound became, it sounded like a woman's cry, Jiang Yan said in her heart that it was really a person, and when she walked forward again, she saw a figure squatting on the ground and whimpering. The moonlight is cold, the shadows of the trees are shaking, and a woman whose face can't be seen clearly is crying in the shadows, which really has the atmosphere of a horror movie.

She stepped over the bushes in a few steps, lifted the person up, and whispered, "Why are you crying here at night?!" I didn't know there were patients here! When people heard it, they thought it was a female ghost asking for their lives! ”

The woman was startled by her, raised her head tremblingly, saw Jiang Yan, and said weakly: "Dan, Danyu, why are you here?" ”

"Ruizhu?" Jiang Yan let go of her hand embarrassedly, "It's you, who did I think." Although she was a little embarrassed, she still had to say, "Your grandmother is sick, and you are still crying here, and you are not afraid to scare her." It's better to change to a place where no one is. ”

Ruizhu wiped away her tears and smiled, "You care about our grandmother." ”

"Grandma Rong is so good, who doesn't care about her." This is true, Qin Keqing doesn't care about her personal morality, she is also very kind and polite to her subordinates, she has never seen her beat or scold anyone, and her character is still good.

Let's talk about Jia Zhen and her affairs, Jiang Yan feels that it is obvious that Jia Zhen's problem is bigger, he is an old vegetable boy, Jia Rong is so young, Qin Keqing is not sure whether she is willing or not, why scold women when there is something? Then Jia Zhen is still drinking and setting up a banquet in front.

Rui Zhu looked at Danyu in front of her, she knew that she was bought from outside, she had nothing to do with the two mansions, and she didn't know anything about their mansions, but she had the heart to pour bitter water, she really couldn't stand such a big thing in her heart, "I cried because of our grandmother." ”

Jiang Yan was taken aback, "Could it be, isn't Grandma Rong bad?" "How can it be so fast!

Ruizhu smiled bitterly, "The sick doctor said that he was going to get better, but unfortunately his life was not good." ”

Jiang Yan agreed with this, Qin Keqing was born as an orphan, and was finally raised by the Qin family for a few days, thinking that she had married a good family, but she met a father-in-law who was not as good as a beast, and this life was really not good.

But these are not what she should know, Jiang Yan pretended not to understand, "How do you say this?" We who are maids can also say that Grandma Rong's life is not good. ”

Rui Zhu sighed and said: "Although we are lowly maids, we are so happy and angry, if you want to cry or scold, no one will block your mouth, our grandmother is more bitter than Coptis chinensis, and she has to smile on her face!" ”

How do you want her to answer this? When asked about Ruizhu, she wouldn't say, so she had to say, "Who isn't like this?" We were scolded by our sister, don't we have to laugh and be an errand too? You persuade Grandma Rong to open more, and it is the right thing to take care of her body. ”

Rui Zhu looked at her and shook her head, "You don't understand, there are some things you can't think of." "Anyway, her life is with her grandmother, and it depends on her decision in the end.

Jiang Yan was silent, how could she not understand, this matter is too challenging to people's three views, but things must have an end, what's the use of blindly torturing yourself, this is not her business alone, at least don't let that man have a good time!

After talking on the phone, Rui Zhu felt a little better, but she was in the mood to ask her, "What are you doing here?" ”

Jiang Yan then remembered that she had come to her to ask for some food.

She ate and drank to her heart's content, and wrapped some in a handkerchief and brought it to the two little maids. Ruizhu sent her out, and Jiang Yan asked her, "What about the other people in this courtyard?" You don't care. ”

Ruizhu didn't care about these at all, "It's enough to have me and Baozhu here, and grandma doesn't want to see anyone else." If they love to play, go play. ”

Jiang Yan saw that she didn't care about herself, and she couldn't care about this matter anymore, so she said goodbye and left. This is the backyard, she is lazy and has to find a room closer to the upper room, after all, Baoyu can't be too far away, in case something looks for her and finds that she is not there, Baoyu will not say anything, and the attacker will definitely give her a criticism.

In the days that followed, I didn't hear that Qin Keqing's illness had improved, but it didn't deteriorate, it seemed to be dragging on like this, and the people in the two mansions were used to this matter. Wang Xifeng still visits her from time to time, and she doesn't have any hope that she can recover her health, but it's better to be sick than to die, anyway, their family can afford ginseng and cinnamon.

After Baoyu was in a better mood, he also resumed his usual social activities, and Jia Mu finally relieved herself when she saw him like this, complained that he didn't know how to cherish his body, and opened the warehouse to take a bunch of rare playthings for him. Jia's mother was happy, Jiang Yan and the others also benefited, she felt that they had a meritorious persuasion, and rewarded the maids in Baoyu's room for a month.

The sudden arrival of the reward made the little maids unable to sit still, they were not like Jiang Yan who bought them from outside, there were parents and elders at home who also worked in the house, and the monthly silver every month could not reach their hands at all, they had already been taken away, and they were usually very tight. The family didn't know about this money, so wouldn't it be nice to secretly stay and buy some food.

In case someone leaked the news, the family came to ask for money, and the little maids ran to the back door one by one these days, just waiting for the merchant to come over, anyway, the money was spent, and there was no more.

The mother-in-law who guarded the door made a small profit because she reported to them.

In the big girl, Jiang Yan had no one to collect her money, so she naturally didn't go to join in the fun, the attacker Qingwen was bought from outside, and the parents of Musk Yue Qiuwen and others were in charge, and they were not bad for the few silver that their daughters were on errands, when they couldn't buy it, they didn't want to squeeze with the little girl.

There is only one Bi Zhen, who is strictly controlled by his parents on weekdays, and has always had no surplus in his hand, so he is ready to hurry up and buy a good one. She didn't want to go with the little maids, so she pulled Jiang Yan, who was the best talker, and talked for a long time, so she dragged her to accompany her.

As soon as she saw Jiang Yan relieved, Bi Jin immediately pulled her to the back corner door, and if she didn't leave, maybe the good goods would be picked out.
