Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

After standing up, Wang Tingyu glanced at his younger brother indifferently, and the latter lowered his head guiltily.

Wang Tingyao understood that if he had not begged his brother to come with him, his brother would not have needed to perform such a great honor.

However, the next moment, his little brain suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he quickly came to his senses. His mother and Mrs. Lin were good friends, but his brother was a younger generation, so it was reasonable for him to come with his mother to pay his respects.

He looked up and glared at Wang Tingyu, then stood obediently beside Xu Zhilan.

Wang Tingyu couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He showed a tolerant smile on his face and said, "Sister Lin, I have official business to attend to. I will go first. Please take care of my mother!"

"No, no, I should be the one thanking Aunt Xu!" Daiyu brought Sanchun and bowed to Wang Tingyu.

Wang Tingyu's gaze swept across the back of Yingchun's neck, and without stopping, he strode out of the hall.

Yingchun stood up and whispered to Daiyu, "I need to change my clothes. I'll be back soon."

Daiyu looked at her teasingly and nodded.

After the day's rituals were over, Daiyu went to the side room to chat with Xu Zhilan, then took Sanchun back to the courtyard.

"Sister Daiyu! You've been kneeling for a whole day, how come you're still so energetic!" Xichun was supported by two maids, with a painful expression on her face.

Daiyu looked at her with amusement, took the medicated oil handed to her by the maid, and rubbed Xichun's knees.

"Who told you not to listen? I told you to kneel for only one section like Aunt Xu, but you refused to listen and insisted on kneeling for the whole section. Now you know how painful it is!"

"When my mother passed away, I was still young and didn't mourn for her like this." Xichun looked a little lonely. But the next second her expression was broken, and she cried out in pain, "Be gentle, it hurts so much!"

Yingchun and Tanchun knelt for most of the day to accompany Xichun. At this time, they also obediently let the maids help them apply the medicated oil.

Yingchun teased lightly: "You still want to become a monk? Monks have to do this every day."

Xichun looked a little regretful, but she still stiffened her neck and argued, "Monks don't have to kneel all day, they can sit cross-legged!"

"Okay! Try sitting cross-legged for a day tomorrow!" Tanchun continued.

"Ah!" Xichun's face suddenly turned ugly.

Tanchun glared at her unhappily: "With your current condition, you still want to become a nun?"

"Yes! Do you think that becoming a monk means chanting scriptures in the Buddhist temple and having a maidservant to serve you?" Daiyu asked.

Indeed, at the end of the original novel, Xichun entered a nunnery. If the Jia family had not completely declined at that time, she might have been able to keep her inner peace by choosing to live in the ancestral temple.

But the final ending is "the earth is so clean and white", which is not a good choice for her.

Daiyu waved to the maids and told them to leave. Yingchun then understood that Daiyu was going to teach Xichun a lesson.

Daiyu eased her grip a little and asked Xichun, "Have you heard the maids in your mansion say anything unpleasant recently?"

"Yes! What they said was so nasty, saying that all the masters in the mansion were ridiculous." Xichun showed a disgusted expression on her face, "I am an innocent person, but they have implicated me!"

Daiyu sighed and said, "This is how the world works. A serious crime will involve several clans, not to mention your reputation problem. But I agree with a saying that if you have not benefited, then you are wronged. What do you think?"

This sentence choked Xichun so much that she couldn't say anything. She wanted to refute and say that this was not what she wanted. But the fact was that she did accept it calmly.

"Okay, Daiyu, she is not even eight years old yet, don't be too harsh on her." Yingchun came out to smooth things over.

Xichun's eyes lit up, as if she had found a savior, and asked, "Sister Yingchun, they also mentioned your father, what do you think?"

Yingchun heard Xichun's words, and a hint of coldness flashed across her face: "I am different from you."

She didn't say it out loud, but she and Daiyu knew it all: I/she is not the original one.

Xichun argued unyieldingly, "What's the difference? They're both equally absurd!"

"I am his biological father, and you are his brother and nephew. How can they be the same?" Yingchun added in her mind: I have the ability to fake my own death and get away, but can you? Do you dare?

Out of consideration for not bullying children, Yingchun did not speak directly.

Tanchun listened for a while and finally understood what they were talking about.

She said, "Yes! Although you were born in the East Palace, you have been raised by the old lady. Now there are maids in the palace to teach you, who would criticize your upbringing?"

Next time you hear those old women gossiping, tell Sister Feng to kick those gossiping old women out!"

"Don't bother Second Sister-in-law Lian! Didn't you see that the old ancestor and second aunt wanted her to take over the housekeeper's job several times, but she refused every time? She is now recuperating and preparing to have another child!" After hearing what Tanchun said, Daiyu hurriedly refused on behalf of Wang Xifeng.

She noticed that Tanchun looked unhappy and couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little self-blame.

Before the two maids arrived, even if Xichun realized something was wrong, she just wanted to escape from reality. But now, they all started to think about changing the status quo.

Although Yingchun did not change the Jia family's plan, she saw that Tanchun misunderstood Daiyu's meaning and wanted to defend Daiyu: "Do you really think that Lian's second sister-in-law is in a good situation?"

Tanchun was a little confused and didn't understand why Yingchun asked this: "She was the head daughter-in-law before, isn't that good?"

"Are you so good that you still have to manage the household while you are pregnant? You almost lost the baby?" Yingchun's words were as cold as before Daiyu came, like sharp thorns that made Tanchun feel a chill on her back.

Tanchun hesitated and said, "That's because our ancestors and mother think highly of her..."

"Look, you don't even have the confidence to say it yourself!" Daiyu looked at the person who had the best chance of turning the tide in the Jia family and said, "Since we have talked about this today, I will ask you a question. Do you think the old ancestor is a qualified head of the family?"

"That's good, of course! Who in the mansion doesn't trust her?" Xichun was the first to express her opinion.

Daiyu asked directly: "Then why do the servants in the mansion dare to talk about her son in private?"

Yingchun and Daiyu's repeated questions frightened Tanchun and Xichun so much that they were completely stunned. Their small bodies looked particularly thin and fragile, and their eyes revealed a hollow look of helplessness.

Until dinner time, the two of them still looked pale, without much blood. They did not pick up dishes from farther away, but just stared at the dishes in front of them and ate silently.

Obviously, this topic directly overturned their worldview and made it difficult for them to calm down.

Daiyu and Yingchun exchanged glances and started to work in tacit understanding, picking up the dishes that the two of them usually liked to eat.
