Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 175 The more we talk, the more excited we become

Grandmother Jia was all smiles, holding a granddaughter in one hand: "This is my niece's granddaughter from my mother's family. She came here two days after you went to Hongji Temple. Her name is Xiangyun, one year younger than you. You should call her sister!"

"It turns out to be Sister Xiangyun! I've heard about you from our ancestors a long time ago, and today I finally see you in person!" Daiyu took Shi Xiangyun's hand and looked at her face carefully.

At the same time, Shi Xiangyun was also looking at Daiyu: This sister in front of her is no worse than the ones she had met before.

Thinking of Daiyu who also lost her mother, Shi Xiangyun couldn't help but feel a sense of connection. She smiled and said to Daiyu: "Sister Lin, this is good. Now you have another sister to play with."

Daiyu nodded slightly and smiled, "Sister Shi is at the age when she loves to play. She is not like us, who either go to school or learn rules every day. It is really boring."

"Cousin, don't you want to go to school again?" Xichun leaned in Yingchun's arms and looked at Daiyu teasingly.

Daiyu saw that her secret was exposed, and she did not try to hide it: "Yes, it's rare for Sister Shi to come here, we should spend more time with her."

Shi Xiangyun started laughing too. After waiting for a long time, she still didn't see Baoyu. She asked curiously, "Grandfather, when will my second brother come?"

Grandmother Jia's smile obviously stiffened a little. Daiyu noticed this slight change and knew that Grandmother Jia already knew what happened in the front yard, but just didn't want to say it out loud.

Daiyu glanced at Yingchun inconspicuously, and seeing that she was also watching from the sidelines and not prepared to talk, she knew what was going on, smiled and said no more.

Grandmother Jia paused for a moment, then smiled again: "Your second brother has moved to the front yard to study. Now the inner room is vacant. It has been cleaned up in the past two days. It is just right for you to live in."

Shi Xiangyun winked playfully and said with a sweet smile, "Then I am lucky enough to have this opportunity."

Daiyu did not stay in Jia's mother's courtyard for long, and said goodbye and returned to Lixiang Courtyard. While they were all in Jia's mother's courtyard, Daiyu quickly summoned Lin Ji and others and distributed the tasks one by one.

The former managers of the Xue family all planned to leave Beijing in the next few days. Others were fine, but only Manager Fan of Hengshudian did not go to look for his family, but hid in the house he bought.

However, his concubine's family was in the capital city of Shenjing, so she was naturally unwilling to leave the capital and follow Manager Fan to other places. In the past few days, the two of them had been arguing constantly.

Judging from the regretful look on Manager Fan's face, Daiyu guessed that he probably didn't have much time left to stay in the capital.

Daiyu knew that her only chance to take action was in the next two days.

So she walked to the desk and drew a simple map of the houses that the stewards had secretly bought outside, and estimated the approximate process and time of the action.

Then, she spread out a piece of white paper and copied down all the key points of cultivation that she had learned from the system in the past few days.

After receiving the order, Qiu Kui did not go out, but stood aside and ground ink for Daiyu.

These key points will be handed over to the maids sooner or later, so Daiyu did not send Qiu Kui away, and asked Qiu Kui to take a look and see if there was anything she did not understand.

Qiu Kui became more and more fascinated as she watched, and even when Daiyu put down her pen, she was still thinking about the shortcomings in her practice.

"How is it? Do you understand?"

Qiu Kui came back to his senses and nodded gratefully: "I understand! There are still many places I haven't discovered before! Girl, can I copy your experience and go back to study it with others?"

She knew that Daiyu was never secretive, and that they would secretly learn many of her moves and footwork from her, but Daiyu would not mind.

But this kind of cultivation experience is different from the usual ones. It is more of an understanding and perception. Qiu Kui really cannot fully grasp it at once.

Daiyu gently blew the ink off the paper, folded a few sheets of paper together, and handed them to Qiu Kui: "I understand it myself. If I don't give these experiences to you, who else can I give them to!"

Qiu Kui's usually calm face showed a smile: "Thank you, girl! I will take it back and study it with them!"

"Just watch it for yourselves, don't spread it out for now."

"Okay, girl."

The smile on Qiu Kui's face disappeared, he nodded solemnly, and then ran out impatiently.

"Don't miss the job!"

Daiyu looked at her leaving back and added, "It's just that Qiu Kui ran too fast, and I don't know if she heard it." Daiyu shook her head helplessly, took out the map she had drawn before, and studied it.

She didn't know that her tolerance and kindness towards the servants had made these maids, servants, and the guards of the Lin Mansion very grateful.

The household registration system of this dynasty is strict, and it is extremely difficult to change the household registration you are born into.

Unless one has made great contributions, or, like Manager Fan, has served the master for many years and is deeply trusted, it is possible to redeem oneself and change one's allegiance.

For the vast majority of people, they can only seek opportunities to climb up with the help of external forces, like Leng Zixing or the Xue family.

Therefore, for people like them who sold themselves into slavery, having the opportunity to study and practice martial arts was a great blessing. They felt that they had met a good master and cherished this hard-won opportunity.

Of course, there were some people who did not care, but after repeated screening by Lin Ji and Huang Yongjin, these people were gradually assigned to less important positions, and some were even sent directly to the farm and handed over to He Kangshou for management.

As a result, differences gradually emerged among the people under Daiyu.

By dinner time, Daiyu hadn't seen Sanchun and the others come back yet. When she asked, she found out that they seldom came back to Lixiangyuan these days. She just smiled faintly and didn't care.

Lan Rui, on the other hand, felt a little uncomfortable: "Girl, you said you guys have always been together, when have they ever left you like this?"

Daiyu picked up the food slowly and swallowed the food in her mouth before she spoke slowly: "What's the big deal? Will I, your girl, not be able to live without them?"

"I just feel sorry for the young lady. She was so kind to them on weekdays, but now they are only concerned with accompanying Miss Shi and have returned to the Jia Mansion without even mentioning her!"

Lan Rui became more and more excited as she spoke, and her voice became louder.

Daiyu glared at her and said, "You are getting more and more excited! They are the masters of the Jia family, we are always guests, and Miss Shi is a new guest. Why are you still so impatient?"

"I know I was wrong." Lan Rui lowered her head but her lips were pouted.

Seeing that she was still a little unconvinced, Daiyu softened her tone and tried to persuade her: "Come on, you are so annoying! You can complain to me, but you should be more restrained in front of others!"

Lan Rui's eyes lit up and she asked, "Is Miss Yingchun considered an outsider?"

Daiyu smiled slightly, and after confirming that there was no one around, she said, "You only need to identify one master, and that is me."
