Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Lin Ji stood there for a long time, and finally decided to go back to find Daiyu.

He had new ideas about what Daiyu had asked him to do before, and wanted to try a more appropriate approach, but this required Daiyu's consent first.

A month passed quickly, and before Daiyu went to Hongji Temple, Feng finally arrived in Shenjing City. Honglian and Feng reunited, and they hugged each other and cried bitterly. The excitement and joy in their hearts were beyond words.

"Mother, why has your hair turned so white!" Honglian stretched out her trembling hand, wanting to stroke Feng's cheek, but she was worried that all this was just a dream.

Feng held Honglian's hand tightly and touched her body, hands and face, confirming that the skin on her hands was white and delicate, without any signs of labor. Only then did she believe that Honglian had not suffered any pain.

But then she quickly withdrew her hand, fearing that her rough hands would scratch her daughter's delicate face and clothes.

Honglian grabbed Feng's hand and pressed it against her face, her hot tears soaking her fingers.

Lin Ji stood aside, looking around the simple but warm courtyard: "Okay, you two can chat slowly. The girl said that you don't have to go back to serve for the next two days. These two people will stay here and help you clean up."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away from the courtyard, leaving the space to the mother and daughter.

Feng pulled Honglian into the house, looked at the man and woman outside with some caution, and asked, "What's going on with them?"

Honglian smiled and comforted Feng: "Mother, don't worry, this is the arrangement of the young lady. The young lady said that I am too beautiful and was afraid that I would be bumped into by others if I went out alone, so she asked them to follow me to protect me."

After hearing her daughter's explanation, Feng's doubts were somewhat relieved. She believed that her daughter would not lie to her.

"Take me to meet your daughter sometime! By the way, how old is your daughter this year?" Feng held Honglian's hand tightly, as if she would lose her if she let go.

Honglian helped Feng sit on the kang and began to talk about her days in the Lin Mansion.

"It seems that your daughter is a good one!" Feng said with emotion.

Looking back on what happened to my family, it was like a run of bad luck. First my daughter was kidnapped, and then my house was burned down.

"Yes!" Honglian smiled. She originally wanted to tell Feng that her daughter had taught her martial arts. However, thinking that this was the daughter's secret, she swallowed her words.

"Yinglian!" Feng's eyes were full of wrinkles. She stared at Honglian cautiously, "Can you please beg your daughter to let you work as a maid in the mansion for a few more years and then let you go?"

Honglian smiled bitterly. Feng saw her expression at that moment and she immediately became excited: "Why, she still won't let you redeem yourself?"

"Mother, don't get excited!" Honglian hurriedly calmed Feng's emotions and explained, "The girl said that if she helps me find a suitable family in the future, she will let me go!"

After hearing this explanation, Feng calmed down. Honglian took the opportunity to relay to Feng in detail the situation that Daiyu had analyzed for her before.

Feng slapped her lips hard several times, until the skin around her lips turned red. She said regretfully, "I really deserve to die! Miss Lin treated you so well, and I actually assumed that about her."

"Come to think of it, I don't know why the girl spent hundreds of taels of silver to buy me..." Perhaps because she met her mother, Honglian expressed the doubts that had been hidden in her heart for a long time.

But she was soon relieved. She smiled and looked at Feng: "Don't think too much! It's just one life. Living a few years like this is already stolen. Mother, my name is Honglian now, don't call me by the wrong name in the future! Even if I am released in the future, I still want to continue using this name!"

"Hey, hey!" Feng stroked Honglian's shoulders. As long as her daughter was doing well, what did it matter what her name was?

After Honglian settled Feng down, she took Feng to Daiyu's house to kowtow to her.

Daiyu calmly accepted their gifts, exchanged a few polite words with Feng, and reminded Honglian: "Even if you have a weak spot in the future, people who want to control you may use it to attack you, so you have to be careful."

"Thank you for your advice, young lady!" Honglian knelt down and kowtowed again, then left with Feng.

That night, Daiyu drove away Lan Rui, who wanted to stick to her to sleep, changed her clothes, and quietly left Lixiangyuan through the back window.

It’s not that the guards in the yard were not doing their job, but her martial arts skills were so profound that she could enter and exit the yard quietly without being discovered.

She first took a walk around Jia Zheng's study, earning a large number of points, and then went to the study in the East Palace.

Although the Dongfu study looked tidy on the surface, there was a layer of dust in the corners of the bookshelves, and it was obvious that no one had cleaned them carefully for a long time.

Daiyu let out a light "tsk", feeling that these books were really being wasted in the hands of the people in the East Palace.

She secretly kept in mind that she would come back one day and take all the books away.

After collecting the points, Daiyu turned to the backyard and planned to look for Qin Keqing.

It was still early in the night, but she found that the candle in Qin Keqing's inner room had been extinguished.

Daiyu was a little at a loss for a moment. If she went in at this time, would she ruin other people's good things?

Suddenly, there was a sound of someone smashing something in a rage, and then a dishevelled figure rushed out, shouting, "I'm going to rest in the study tonight and I won't be back!"

Not long after, low crying sounds were heard from inside.

Daiyu made sure that there was no one else in the inner room except Qin Keqing, so she walked in quietly and carefully locked the door.

However, the sound of the bolt being dropped was a little louder, which startled Qin Keqing. She asked in a terrified tone, "Who is it?"

Daiyu immediately responded in a low voice: "Sister Qin, it's me, Daiyu!"

"Turns out it's my cousin aunt!" Qin Keqing felt a little relieved. She wiped the tears from her face, wrapped her clothes tightly around her, and walked out of the bedroom.

She saw Daiyu looking at the furnishings in her inner room. In fact, it was because Daiyu smelled an ambiguous smell in the bedroom and didn't want to go in.

Qin Keqing smoothed her messy hair and asked awkwardly, "Aunt, why are you here at this time?"

Daiyu looked at her with a half-smile and teased, "Why, did I disturb your good time?"

Qin Keqing glared at Daiyu, and at that moment of charm, Daiyu felt that her soul was almost seduced away by her.

Now Daiyu suddenly realized why Jia Rong, such a lustful man, reacted so calmly after Qin Keqing's death, while Jia Zhen, the eunuch, cried heart-wrenchingly.

If Daiyu were a man and married a beauty like Qin Keqing, she would probably be so enchanted by her that she would never want to leave the king again, and the king would never attend court again in the mornings!
