In the next few days, the maids of the Jia family either went out for a stroll together or gathered in the room to drink and gamble.

Xueyan wrote all of these down and reported them to Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu wrote these things in a letter and sent it to Lin Ruhai via the post station.

Let's not talk about how Lin Ruhai was in agony when he received her letter. After staying in the inn for several days, it was Jia Yucun who couldn't hold back first.

He also planned to use Lin Ruhai's letter of recommendation to get close to the Jia Mansion and wait for a lucrative position. How could he be willing to waste any more time in Huai'an Prefecture, where he was unfamiliar with the place!

One day, a maidservant of the Jia family stopped Xueyan and said in a haughty tone, "Xueyan, Mr. Jia just asked me to come and ask the young lady when she is going to leave. We maidservants can stay with the young lady here, but we can't afford to delay the important matter of the master!"

"Who are you, old woman? Can't you see that I'm holding the young lady's medicine? If the effect of the medicine is delayed, I don't think any of you can afford it!" Influenced by Lin Daiyu these days, Xueyan has changed her previous cowardice and now acts like a first-class maid.

The old woman was startled by Xueyan's words, but then she thought of Jia Yucun and straightened her back again: "Once a teacher, always a father. Mr. Jia was your teacher for a year, how can you neglect him!"

When Xueyan was about to retort, a maid came out of the courtyard. She bowed and then said to the old woman, "Madam, the young lady said she knows and will report back to you later."

The old woman snorted at Xueyan in a haughty manner and returned to the back room triumphantly.

"Xueyan, go and tell Mr. Jia that it's all the students' fault. I probably won't be able to hold out for a few more days, and I really don't want to delay Mr. Jia's important business.

Let him just take my father's recommendation letter to Beijing. I think my uncle is magnanimous and cherishes talents. He will definitely not care about such a trivial matter as him leaving me, who is sick, to go to Beijing alone to seek an official position. Otherwise, it would seem that I am making a fuss for no reason. "Lin Daiyu's tone was light, but Xueyan still heard the sharpness in it.

"Miss, why do you curse yourself like this?" Xueyan felt sorry for Daiyu and asked worriedly, "Won't this offend him?"

"It doesn't matter if I offend him. As long as the Jia family survives, he won't dare to take advantage of their misfortune. Don't worry! There are still at least ten years to go!"

Lin Daiyu's last sentence was vague. Xueyan didn't hear it clearly for a moment, so she blurted out, "Miss, what did you say ten years ago?"

"In the next ten years, Jia Yucun will curry favor with the Jia family. There is no need to be afraid of him. Go, wait for the people sent by father to arrive, and then we will set off." Lin Daiyu said absent-mindedly.

She casually flipped through the book in her hand, which was sent along with Nanny Wang to entertain her, and had already been recorded in her system.

The operation process is very simple and only requires a touch of your hands.

The next day after drinking the fitness potion, Daiyu put all the books she had carried with her into the system.

Adding the batch of books that Nanny Wang brought later, and the points earned from checking in for courses these days, a total of 78 points were accumulated.

I don’t know when I can accumulate 300 points to exchange for the internal energy manual that she has been longing for!

Daiyu was anxious and the book in her hands made a rustling sound as she flipped through the pages.

Among the four new maids, Qinghe was the most attentive. She noticed Daiyu's anxiety and came forward to ask in a low voice: "Miss, are you worried about something?"

Daiyu glanced at Qinghe and came up with an idea. She said to her, "Qinghe, go to the room where I put my luggage and write down the titles of the books I brought with me. Then go to Nanny Wang to get some money and tell her that I asked you to go to the bookstore to buy books. See if there are any books in the bookstore that are not in my box. You don't need the storybooks.

If the old women ask you about it, you can just say that I was bored during my illness and bought some books to kill time."

"Yes!" Qing He immediately took the order and went out.

This was a test from Daiyu. She wanted to see if this girl had the potential to be trained, and at the same time she also wanted to test her loyalty.

Servants in aristocratic families often have to be trained for several generations, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

The Jia family was rotten from top to bottom, which led to the loss of all their huge fortune.

Although Daiyu made her choice hastily this time and didn't know whether they would be dazzled by the Jia family's wealth after seeing their wealth, she had no better choice at the moment.

Daiyu was just thinking with her head down when Xueyan and Nanny Wang came in one after the other. Xueyan had a smile on her face, while Nanny Wang had a frown on her face.

Daiyu saw that there was still something she didn't understand, so she said to Nanny Wang, "It's okay, it's just a loss of some money. If we find out about any problems later, it would be like letting a wolf into the house. She just left, Nanny, there's no need to worry now."

Xueyan was confused when Daiyu asked her, "How is it? What did Mr. Jia say?"

Xueyan finally put aside her doubts and reported, "Of course he said he didn't dare, but he looked like nothing was wrong. He first attached himself to our Lin family, and then he wanted to rely on the girl's maternal family. What can he say? He can only suppress his thoughts and escort us to Beijing."

She smiled proudly, then her smile turned cold again: "Miss, you'd better not let Zijuan leave the courtyard in the future."

"What's going on?" Daiyu asked in confusion.

"It's that Mr. Jia. Just now, when Qinghe was leaving the house, I happened to run into Mr. Jia seeing me off. Qinghe just greeted him, but he kept staring at Qinghe's back.

I used to think he was a good man because of his broad face, square mouth, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, but I didn't expect him to be like this. Master really shouldn't have written a letter of recommendation for him." Xueyan spoke a lot in one breath, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

"Okay, you're still talking about daddy!" Daiyu was a little tired of sitting, so she put down the book and stretched out her white hand to Xueyan.

The latter supported her and stuck out his tongue at her.

"What's the big deal? It's just a romantic affair for a man. Even if you tell daddy, it won't matter." After Daiyu comforted Xueyan, she let her go out with Nanny Wang to continue training the newly bought maid.

After everyone left, Daiyu stood on tiptoe and gently closed the door. While no one was in the yard, she did a set of boxing in the room.

The bodybuilding potion was indeed good. Daiyu could already punch. She was looking forward to the power of her boxing skills after practicing internal strength.

She took out the cash box, wrapped it in a rough cloth, and began to do weighted squats around the room. After exercising for a while, she felt that her previously sore muscles were much more relaxed.

Just as Daiyu was worried, the two people sent by Lin Ruhai finally arrived at the inn.

"Brother Lin! Why are you here with people!" Lin Daiyu received the news and just walked into the hall, she saw Lin Ji, the son of the Lin family's chief steward, walking into the courtyard with a large group of people.

Daiyu looked at everyone's face and compared them with the information in her memory. At the end, she found that a maid from the Jia family was peeking into the yard by the gate.
