"Girl, Second Master Bao is fine, please don't go there!"
"Last night I said I would go today, and in the morning I said it would be warmer in the afternoon. Now I don't have to go!"
At the end of the sentence, Daiyu was crying and said with great dissatisfaction: "You just gang up to bully me and don't want me to see Baoyu!"
Daiyu's words really wronged Zijuan and others. The reason why they kept changing their itinerary was because the rules in the mansion were constantly changing.
Zijuan could only explain: "Girl, it's not that we don't let you go, it's that the upper and lower levels of the mansion... have been strictly separated from the inside and outside. It's no longer convenient for the girl to see Baoyu again when she's in the boudoir!"
"The family was impeached a few days ago, and Baoyu had already moved out of the inner courtyard. Now that the family has made the Holy Emperor angry again, the rules have become even stricter!"
"To tell you the truth from the girl, the two ladies were quarreling about Baoyu today. If the girl goes again at this time, I'm afraid it will cause trouble again!"
"Then it will be Baoyu who will suffer!"
Daiyu is not a shy person. Although she is still worried, she also knows that what Zijuan said is reasonable.
"Then... when can I go see him?"
Seeing Daiyu relent, Zijuan hurriedly said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in the next few days, but you don't have to worry, girl. Baoyu is in good health now!"
After nodding her head, Daiyu said no more, but tears welled up in her eyes, making others extremely worried.
Seeing this situation, Zijuan said: "If you are bored, girl, why don't you go out for a walk and talk to the second and third girls!"
"I'm tired today, so I won't go out!"
Zijuan advised again: "Young lady is being willful again. The doctor came to see you a few days ago and told you to move around more. You haven't even left the house in the past two days!"
To be honest, it is rare among maids to be as considerate as Zijuan, so Daiyu has always treated her very well.
"Girl, I'm going to prepare clothes for you!"
Before Daiyu could answer, Zijuan took the girl and got ready, successfully diverting Daiyu's attention.
Ten minutes later, Daiyu finished washing and dressing up. She first went to Jia Mu's place to say hello, and then talked to Yingchun and others.
"Why don't you see Sister Bao?" Daiyu was a little confused.
Compared to talking to Yingchun and the others, Daiyu was undoubtedly more interested in Baochai because they were both knowledgeable people.
"She was still here just now, but she was called away by her family. If my sister wants to find her... she should go to Lixiangyuan!"
Daiyu said half-jokingly: "You two study hard in Hanchuang, and you will definitely win the title of Toad Palace one day. I don't dare to disturb you here, so I will say goodbye..."
"We still need to study hard, but Sister Lin is very knowledgeable. She is sure to be on the gold medal list in next year's scientific examination. Why not give it a try!"
It was Tanchun who said this. She was naturally more lively than Yingchun, so she only accepted Daiyu's jokes at this moment.
"I don't think I'm very knowledgeable. I just know a few words. Sister Bao who came yesterday is very knowledgeable. Don't praise the wrong person!"
After saying this with a smile, Daiyu took the girl and left, while Tanchun and the other three went to study their books separately.
At this moment, in Lixiang Courtyard, Xue Baochai was sitting in front of the desk, writing with a pen.
Their family only stayed in Rongguo Mansion, and their daily expenses depended entirely on their own servants. The storms that the Jia family encountered had little to do with them.
So early this morning, Aunt Xue ordered someone to go to the Ministry of Etiquette and received an official letter for candidacy as an attendant, which listed the time and requirements for candidacy.
What Baochai is writing now is her own resume. After copying it, submit it to the Ministry of Etiquette. If it passes the review, the registration will be successful.
"Miss Lin is here!"
There was a reminder from outside. Baochai put down his pen and looked outside, only to hear the sound of footsteps.
After a few breaths, Lin Dai Yulian was seen walking into the house holding a handkerchief.
"Sister Bao, why don't you go out to play?" Lin Daiyu stopped in front of the desk with a slight smile on her lips.
"Something's been delayed!"
Putting her head out to look at the book table, Daiyu asked: "What is this writing?"
"Resume of candidate for Princess's Attendant..."
Having said this, Baochai said with regret: "If I enter the palace to serve the princess in the future, it will be even harder for me to joke with you!"
"Serve the princess? Why should sister wrong herself?" Lin Daiyu was a little confused.
This is actually normal. After all, she is only twelve years old now and is well taken care of under Jia Mu's wings. She basically does not need to think about practical matters.
Standing up, walking around the desk and walking towards Lin Daiyu, Baochai smiled slightly and said: "Princess Tianhuang is a noble lady. Serving her is a blessing for our subjects, how can we say it is a grievance!"
Arriving in front of Daiyu, Baochai held her shoulders, leaned over slightly and said, "It's you, please stop talking nonsense about what you just said, or you might get hurt!"
Daiyu is so smart, she immediately knew where she made a mistake, and said half-jokingly with an aggrieved face: "Sister Bao, you have to help me keep the secret, otherwise I won't be able to survive!"
Baochai continued on and said, "I can help you keep a secret, but it must be beneficial!"
"What does Sister Bao want?"
"I want...Sister Lin to be more stable in the future, and stop focusing on Brother Bao!"
At the end of the sentence, Baochai couldn't help laughing, which made Daiyu's face turn red with embarrassment, causing the two to start a fight.
It's just that Daiyu's body is too weak. After running around the desk two or three times, she was so tired that she coughed, then leaned on the chair and refused to move.
Zicuckoo from the outer room hurriedly entered and asked anxiously: "Girl, are you okay...I'll get you some medicine!"
After saying that, she immediately turned around and went out to get medicine from the old woman who was waiting outside.
Every time Lin Daiyu left her residence, her mother-in-law would bring pills with her to prepare for emergencies.
After a while, Zicuckoo entered the room, holding a yellow porcelain bottle in her hand, and poured a pill out of it.
After Daiyu took it, the situation eased slightly, which made Baochai beside him breathe a sigh of relief.
She knew that Lin Daiyu was weak, but she didn't expect that she would be so weak. She secretly thought that it would be better to fight less in the future.
"I think the pattern on this medicine bottle looks like the style in the palace. Is this the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor?" Baochai looked at Zicuckoo and asked.
"Miss Xue has good eyesight. This medicine was a gift from the Thirteenth Master. It really comes from the palace!"
Xue Baochai was greatly surprised when he heard Zicuckoo's answer.
To be more precise, she felt a little uncomfortable, just like when she met Zhen Qin and the other party said she wanted to choose the princess.
"The medicine given by Master Thirteen? Specially given to Sister Lin?" Xue Baochai asked, his tone no longer calm.
"Exactly!" Zicuckoo didn't notice anything strange and still replied calmly.
Looking at Lin Daiyu who had calmed down, Xue Baochai felt a little sad in her heart and said in a faint tone: "Sister Lin, it seems that this Thirteenth Master values you very much!"
Daiyu rolled her eyes at Zicuckoo and said helplessly: "What? Don't listen to Zicuckoo's nonsense. The Thirteenth Master is sympathetic to my father's meritorious service and just rewarded me along the way!"
"real?"
"How can this be false!"
After saying this, Daiyu looked curious, looked at Baochai and said, "Sister Bao, are you familiar with Master Thirteen?"
Sitting back on the chair, Baochai suppressed the strangeness in his heart, regained his composure and said: "We had some contacts when we were in Jinling!"
While straightening the braids hanging down from her temples, Daiyu said curiously, "But I don't know... what kind of person the Thirteenth Master is!"
In the past two days, she had been in the house and heard many people discussing Zhu Jinghong, saying that he saved Baoyu and the Jia family, so she asked curiously at this moment.
However, what Baochai was thinking was that Zhu Jinghong first wrote her a frivolous letter, and then sent medicinal materials to Daiyu, and somehow provoked Zhen Qin...
Thinking of this, Baochai blurted out: "He's just a disciple!"
The protagonist travels through the Jinyiwei and rises to the rank of commander. You can go and see it!
