Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

"Qinghe, you can come in." Daiyu was completely immersed in the bathtub, with only her head above the water.

Qing He walked in, walked silently behind her, tested the water temperature, and confirmed that it was not cold, then asked: "Miss, do you need me to massage you?"

"Just give me a massage for my shoulders. I've been sitting for most of the day and my neck is sore! Xueyan is right. This is more tiring than boxing all day!"

Qing He chuckled: "It's like the girl has been boxing all day!"

Daiyu curled her lips. It was true that she hadn't had that experience since she came here, but when she was in the boxing gym before, she had worked very hard to get her job certificate as soon as possible!

It's true that comfort corrupts people's hearts!

"Tell me what happened after you came in!" Daiyu leaned against the wall of the bathtub and closed her eyes.

If it was Green Lotus who reported, she would probably be indignant again. But Daiyu deliberately left Green Lotus behind because she was more careful and calm than Green Lotus.

"We followed the luggage cart and did go to the stables at first. But then, the maid we met at the beginning wanted us to go to the servants' room to rest first..."

"Mrs. Zhou Rui." Daiyu added.

"Yes, the people in the stables were very respectful to Mrs. Zhou Rui, and they also persuaded us that it would be fine if we left the things there. But we didn't get the young lady's order, so we didn't dare to leave, and we still stayed where we were."

"What happened next? Did you eat dinner?" Daiyu recalled that she had barely eaten something at night, and ordered, "Go down first and ask the cook to cook me some eggs. I didn't eat much at night, and I'm afraid I'll be hungry after taking a bath."

Qinghe was about to continue speaking, but after receiving Daiyu's instructions, she decided to go and come back quickly.

"Girl, why didn't you eat enough at night? Is it because of your poor appetite?"

"That's right! The food at the Jia family is too greasy! You all know what I have eaten along the way. How could I suddenly eat such greasy food!" Daiyu pouted in dissatisfaction. What cousin? I'm afraid few people in the mansion care about her, otherwise why would they give such delicious food to someone who is in mourning!

"Fortunately, we can buy things for ourselves. I have to observe mourning, so you don't have to. Just accept the share that is sent to you on weekdays, and don't be polite. I have handed over my living expenses!" Daiyu said confidently.

"Yes!" Qinghe lowered her head and smiled secretly. Fortunately, Daiyu was in front and couldn't see it.

She continued with the previous topic, "Later, when they saw that we were unmovable and didn't dare to unload the goods directly, they tried to scare the cart drivers. Fortunately, I hadn't spent the money the girl gave me to buy books before. When I saw that the situation was not good, I used the money to buy the mule cart, and those people stopped."

"Is the money enough?"

"That's more than enough to buy those two cars!"

"That's good, so we don't have any evidence against them. Those servants are used to doing this kind of thing. Even a fly will leave a leg when it flies past them. Not to mention relatives like us who come to ask for money and take advantage of us."

"I really don't understand why the master sent the girls here!" Although Qing He said this, she was still glad in her heart. Fortunately, they were sent here, otherwise they would not know where they would be sold to.

Daiyu patted Qinghe's hand, signaling her to stop: "It's fine to talk about it in front of me, but don't discuss the elders with people outside. Everything you say and do will be attributed to me. You don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but don't be afraid of it, remember?"

"Yes, young lady!" Qinghe knew that Daiyu had finished washing, and stood aside to hand her a towel and clothes.

"Then you came to Lixiangyuan?"

"Yes, when we drove the cart here, we passed the south yard and many women came out to help us, but we rejected them all. Even when we were unloading the boxes, there were people watching the mule cart."

"You did a good job! Tell Wang Ma later that she will work harder this month and give her an extra month's salary. Ask them to guard the door and inform anyone who comes in, especially Baoyu, who must not be allowed in!"

"Yes, girl!"

Not long after Daiyu returned to the inner room, Honglian came in with a bowl of eggs.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" As Daiyu smelled the aroma of boiled eggs, her stomach began to growl.

When Honglian saw Daiyu reaching out her hand, she tried to dodge away: "Miss, this egg has just been cooked and is still hot!"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Daiyu's movements were much faster than Honglian's. She grabbed an egg and knocked it against her head, then peeled it in a few seconds and put it into her mouth.

Honglian picked up an egg and peeled it for Daiyu. Seeing how anxious she was, she said distressedly, "Girl, these six eggs are all yours. No one is going to snatch them from you. Take your time!"

"Only six!" Daiyu swallowed a mouthful and picked up another one. This time she was much more polite.

Honglian smiled slightly: "Young lady, how can you be short of food and drink when you are at your grandparents' house?"

Her laughter was as sweet as a silver bell, making the candlelight in the inner room much softer.

Daiyu sneered, "I don't know if they usually have such a feast. I feel sick just looking at the food. How can I eat it? I only had some side dishes and now I'm starving!"

She stuffed the egg into her mouth, then took the one handed to her by Honglian, and felt like she came alive again.

"I asked the old lady for a sister who is good at sewing. She looks about your age and is also very pretty. She is probably as pretty as me. Maybe you can see her when you go back later."

Honglian was amused by Daiyu's words, and the smile on her face was as bright and charming as a blooming hibiscus.

Daiyu looked at Honglian, and thought of Zijuan and Qingwen, and she couldn't help feeling happy: there were so many beautiful girls around her every day, and not only did those stinky men like them, but she herself was also very happy!

Thinking of the Xue family members who were about to arrive, Daiyu's tone became serious: "Sister Honglian, do you want to learn?"

Honglian quickly thought of Lan Rui and the others, who were always talking nonsense when they gathered in the room. She realized that this was an opportunity given by the girl, and nodded quickly: "I want to learn!"

"I haven't even told you what you want to learn, and you already said you want to learn it. What if I do something bad?" Daiyu teased.

"Girl!" Honglian's face flushed slightly, showing a bit of girlish shyness.

Daiyu took out a mirror from her side, actually from the storage box, and placed it in front of Honglian.

Honglian was a little confused. She looked at the shining thing and was frightened by the figure inside: "Is this... is this me?"

"Yes, our sister Honglian is so beautiful!"

Honglian held the small mirror and looked at the girl in it. She had always heard Xueyan and the others say that they were beautiful, but she had also seen them in the bronze mirror and didn't think much of them. Now she finally knew.

She blushed and returned the mirror to Daiyu: "Girl, this is a good thing, you must keep it well!"

Daiyu took the mirror and put it back into the storage box. She lowered her voice and said, "I show you this not to let you know how beautiful you are, but to make you aware of the crisis!

People always say that a man is guilty of possessing a treasure even if he is innocent. Your appearance is also a treasure! Have you ever thought about what would happen if you were taken to the street by that kidnapper?"
