"Hey!! Where am I??"
The morning sun broke through the sky, and Daiyu woke up from her sleep. She rubbed her temples and felt a splitting headache, and her thoughts were confused.
"Girl, are you awake??"
The maid who was waiting in the house hurried over after seeing Daiyu wake up.
Daiyu looked at the person in front of her and was slightly startled.
"Who are you?? Where is Xueyan??"
Hearing Daiyu's words, the maid in purple clothes in front of her was stunned. What happened to Daiyu? ? Why don't I even recognize her? She is Zijuan! ! I have been following her for more than three years.
Then she tentatively said: "Girl, Snow Goose is outside. Don't you remember who I am? I am Zijuan!! I have been following you for three years~~ The old lady asked me to follow the girl and specially picked it up. There’s a new name!!”
Daiyu frowned when she heard what the maid said. She felt a little familiar, but she was not sure. She seemed to have heard this name somewhere! !
Zijuan is so smart! In the original work, she could be Lin Daiyu's matchmaker.
Seeing that something seemed to be wrong with Lin Daiyu, she didn't say anything and just called Xue Yan outside to come in.
"Xueyan, the girl is looking for you~~"
"Hey~~here he comes!!"
Xue Yan walked in from outside. This little maid had been following Daiyu since Suzhou, and she had spent the longest time with her.
Moreover, the little maid is not very old, she should be younger than Daiyu, and she still has baby fat on her face.
"Girl, look for me!!"
Daiyu looked at Xueyan and was stunned. Xueyan's appearance had not changed much, but compared with the one in her memory, it had become a lot bigger.
This age is the age when the little girl opens her eyes. She looks the same every year. If Xueyan's appearance hadn't changed a lot, Daiyu probably wouldn't dare to recognize her.
"Are you Xue Yan?? Why have you grown so big??"
Xue Yan laughed out loud when he heard this.
"What did the girl say?? You have grown up too!! The mirror is over there, how about I take the mirror and look at yourself!!"
Hearing Xue Yan's joking words, Daiyu frowned quietly.
Has she grown up too? ? How is this going? ?
But facts speak louder than words. When Daiyu saw herself in the mirror, the weirdness in her eyes became even stronger. But this time, she did not speak anymore, but began to observe her surroundings.
"Hiss~~"
Suddenly Daiyu felt a stinging pain in her palm. She didn't know what she touched. She stretched out her palm and saw two bloody words clearly visible on the palm.
"Break off the engagement~"
Seeing these two words, Daiyu felt even more confused. This handwriting seemed to be left by herself. Break off the engagement? ? Why do I have no memory of who I want to break off the engagement with? ? In the end what happened? ?
But there is a voice in my heart that keeps reminding me that I must cancel this marriage. It seems that I still have a very important thing to complete.
"Xueyan, who am I engaged to??"
After hesitating for a moment, Daiyu turned to her maid and asked.
Xue Yan heard Dai Yu's question, blinked her eyes, and secretly thought to herself, what happened to her girl? ? very strange! ! How come you don’t know about your marriage?
But when the lady asked, she still told the truth honestly.
"Girl, are you kidding? It's your marriage to Champion Hou!! The Hou has already agreed with me!! Didn't I say it in front of you at the beginning!! Have you forgotten??"
Hearing Xue Yan's words, Dai Yu was stunned on the spot, Champion Hou, who is that? ? How could this be possible when he was still there? ? She had no impression at all.
But this time she didn't make a fuss, she just kept it in mind and planned to secretly find out what happened.
"By the way, where is this??"
Daiyu took Xueyan's hand again and asked.
After Xueyan passed Daiyu's question just now, he also guessed that there was something wrong with his young lady, so he did not hesitate and quickly replied: "This is the Rongguo Duke's mansion in the capital. The master went to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate the salt transportation. This That’s why I entrusted you to the old lady’s care!!”
Daiyu knew where Duke Rong's mansion was. She looked around and didn't say much. She just nodded lightly. At this time, there were many reasons in her heart that she needed to figure out one by one. There is no rush for this moment.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.
"Is Sister Lin awake??"
Hearing this voice, Daiyu frowned unconsciously, and a very strange feeling emerged in her heart for no reason. It was very contradictory. A voice seemed to tell her that this person was very important to her, but there was another person in her heart. It feels like an unreasonable disgust.
"Xueyan, who is that?"
Xueyan felt quite nervous when she heard Daiyu's words. Daiyu seemed to have forgotten many things at the moment, but they had not forgotten that she was the fiancée of the champion, and the person who came here was Jin from the Duke of Rongguo. Liao Da is not an easy person to deal with either.
"Girl, it's Mr. Bao, he..."
Before Xue Yan could finish his explanation, or Xue Yan couldn't think of any words to explain this Second Master Bao, he saw a young man wearing bright red arrow sleeves walking in.
Although Jia Baoyu has shortcomings of one kind or another, one thing is undeniable, that is, he was born well, just as mentioned in the original work.
Seeking sorrow and hatred for no reason, sometimes as foolish as crazy. Even though he was born with a good skin, his belly turned out to be rough.
There was no preconceived impression. When they met again, his impression on Daiyu was quite good, at least not that annoying. If he was an ugly person, like Xue Wenlong, he would probably be blacklisted by Daiyu. Come on!
Daiyu is a person who controls appearance. If Jia Yunsheng is like Xue Pan, or like Jia Huansheng, of course this does not mean that Jia Huansheng is not good. His appearance is still quite high, but his temperament is a bit wretched. I guess Daiyu will also blacklist Jia Qi.
"Sister Lin is already up, isn't she? I have been shouting for so long and there is no movement. I thought Sister Lin was taking a rest!!"
Lin Daiyu was indeed dressed at this time, but she was still thinking about what Xue Yan told her, so she didn't go out. Seeing Jia Baoyu's familiar attitude, she thought that maybe she was comparing herself to this person. Cook it! He didn't open his mouth to chase people away, but asked the maid below to make tea.
"Please sit down!! What's the matter??"
Hearing Daiyu's words, Jia Baoyu was flattered. He often came to Daiyu's place on weekdays, but Daiyu didn't have a good attitude towards him. She either used excuses to hide away to find other people, or she excused herself from feeling unwell. Come on, this bowl of tea today is the first of its kind.
"It's a Lantern Festival. My sisters played very late in Lixiangyuan. Seeing that you didn't go, I thought I was not feeling well and came over to have a look~~ But looking at your complexion, you should be fine~ I just Don’t worry~”
After hearing this, Daiyu was confused. She knew about the Lantern Festival. She had no memory of any of the sisters. She also didn’t know where the Lixiang Garden was, so she could only retaliate for this matter. silence.
"By the way, Xiangyun is here. He's at the old lady's place. Can my sister go there with me? She has been saying she wants to be naughty with you~~"
Another unfamiliar name. Daiyu thought about it and shook her head.
"In a moment! Second Master Bao will go over first. I have something else to do. I'll go there after cleaning up~~"
It was rare that Sister Lin was willing to talk to him in a soft voice. Jia Baoyu talked for a while before getting up and leaving.
On the other side, Zijuan saw something was wrong with Daiyu, so she took advantage of Daiyu and Xueyan to confirm the various relationships in the house and secretly found someone, a little maid who was helping in the kitchen. She heard what Daiyu said However, this person is from Jia Qi.
After she explained the whole story clearly, she returned to Daiyu's room, secretly thinking that her girl must not be stupid at this time. If something really happened, the master was still in Jiangnan, but no one could tell her the truth. , of course to be honest, the master may not be able to handle it.
On the other side, the home of Qin Ye, the maintenance man in the capital, was very lively today, with two groups of people arriving one after another.
One family is Jia Rong from Ningguo Gongfu, and the other is from the Champion House.
Jia Rong came here to propose marriage and brought enough betrothal gifts. Although the Champion Marquis Mansion did not come here to propose marriage, the purpose seemed to be similar.
Jia Rong and others came first. Faced with a family like Ning Guo Gongfu, Qin Ye, a maintenance man, could not do anything at all. How could he not know what the reputation of Ning Guo Gongfu was like? Those romantic affairs have been in the sky prison, how could he want to marry the daughter he had raised for seventeen or eighteen years to such a family.
I was still thinking about how to politely refuse this marriage, but then someone came from the Champion House, a man and a woman. The man was the housekeeper of the house, and the woman seemed to be a housekeeper. They didn't say much when they arrived. He invited Qin Ye aside and said a few words.
One sentence is "Master Hou is very fond of your daughter~"
The second sentence is "Look at the expenses of the young ladies in your family, which are even better than those of the princesses in the palace~"
The third sentence is "I heard from Mr. Hou that someone above seems to be watching here. Not everyone can protect Miss Qin!!"
These three sentences were groundbreaking and shocked Qin Ye. When he adopted Qin Keqing, he didn't know everything. He also had his own guesses about Qin Keqing's life experience. Seeing Xu Yuanhui's words reveal the secret, he felt in his heart Why not panic?
Qin Ye finally asked stubbornly because she was the daughter he had raised for many years.
"Then how will the Marquis arrange my daughter? I'm afraid it won't be appropriate for her to go to the Marquis' Mansion like this!!"
Facing Qin Ye's questioning, Cai Luan said with a smile: "I can understand Master Qin's concern for his daughter, but I also have something to advise you. In the face of life and death, if you still talk about those false etiquette, you will only be able to destroy the house and destroy the family in the blink of an eye. Come on, Mr. Qin must have a young master at home! You don’t want your house to be ransacked as soon as you open your eyes, or even the whole family going to the vegetable market~~"
"Now that the Marquis is willing to take this risk for your family, what else do you want? Besides, since the Marquis is willing to spend so much effort to save your daughter, what else can't be explained? At least the Marquis has not harmed you. Think about it! Otherwise, if you send the person to the emperor, or even give him a break, the matter will be over!"
"What you are sending away is a hot potato. It has something to do with our Houfu. Naturally, the Houfu will not stand idly by in the future regarding your son. This is a sure-profit deal~ It is no better than giving it to that Jia. Rong is much better, Master Qin, don’t you think so?”
