【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

When Daiyu woke up, she was lying on a soft and comfortable bed. It was already bright outside the window. She slowly opened her eyes, not knowing where she was. She looked inside the house. It was not big, but it was clean and tidy. She stretched her hands, moved her legs and feet, and got used to this body before getting up.

The bed she slept on was very simple. Judging from the decoration of the room, it should not be in the Jia Mansion. The past events were vivid in her mind. Just as she was about to shed tears, she reminded herself not to be sentimental.

I was about to call Zijuan, but then I stopped myself. I was reborn, but Zijuan might not be here. I looked around and saw a desk near the window. There was a square mirror on the desk, and there was a blue light flashing. There was a bookshelf next to the desk, and there were many books on it. I stood up and prepared to look at the light. Suddenly, I heard two knocks on the door.

Then a beautiful girl popped her head in:

"have you woken up?"

Daiyu took a closer look and exclaimed:

"Qingwen, what's wrong with you?"

"What did you call me?" A pair of beautiful eyes looked at her.

"Qingwen, aren't you also..." Daiyu's eyes were filled with tears, but she tried hard to hold them back. She didn't dare to say anything more. She originally wanted to say, aren't you also dead?

"Yes, I was reborn just like you, but I came earlier than you." Qingwen continued.

"What I want to say is not..." Daiyu quickly swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Qingwen came in and sat on the chair opposite Daiyu.

"It seems that you were reborn last night. The original owner of your body had no memory of Qingwen. She was obsessed with all kinds of novels and always wanted to live in books. Maybe she got her wish."

“Can I live in a book?”

"Yes, this is Keqing's "Perfect World". She will help those who are dissatisfied with their lives to fulfill their wishes. But after I came here, I found that I was still not satisfied. For example, before my rebirth, my wish was to never be a maid again. Indeed, I did not become a maid, but I was still very poor. I really regret why my wish was not to be a billionaire?" Qingwen said in annoyance.

"Billionaire?" Daiyu asked in confusion.

"Oh...by the way, what is your wish?" Qingwen asked curiously.

"I just hope to have a healthy body." Daiyu replied slowly.

"That's it? Miss Lin, you are so confused! You have been in the petri dish for hundreds of years and have seen the world change, and you just want to be healthy?"

I want more: I won’t fall in love with Baoyu anymore, Daiyu thought.

"Okay, let's not blame each other. Let's just continue to work hard to live!" Qingwen sighed, and then she realized that now she could only depend on her.

"Let me introduce you to Keqing's "Perfect World". This is a very realistic world. Your original owner is an 18-year-old girl named Lin Pin'er. Both her parents are dead, and she didn't do well in the college entrance examination..." Qingwen said something quickly, but Daiyu was no longer interested in what she said. She was busy interrupting her:

"Both parents are dead again? Why?" Lin Pin'er secretly hated herself for not seeking a happy family with both parents alive.

Seeing her frustrated face, Qingwen continued:

"Well, she currently makes a living on the Internet. Although it's hard work, she earns a little more than me."

“What is online life?”

"She has a notebook. Look at it. It contains her game account password. She plays games every day and sells equipment to make money. I don't know the details. Look at her notebook and study it yourself."

Lin Pin'er picked up the notebook on the table and opened it to study it carefully.

"Let's not talk too much for now. To celebrate your rebirth, I'll make you a bowl of noodles. But let me make it clear that I'm not your maid. We're currently sharing a house." Qingwen said playfully.

Lin Pin'er nodded, not quite understanding.

After eating the noodles, after Qingwen's explanation, Lin Pin'er realized that the mirror-like thing on the desk was a computer. Qingwen helped her turn on the computer and taught her how to operate it.

One afternoon, Lin Pin'er was in front of the computer to learn about the world, read the news, and listen to some music she liked. As for games, she didn't understand them very well, but Qingwen reminded her that there was a small blue bubble that kept flashing, which was her store. She clicked on it to study it, and it turned out that she could sell things through the blue bubble. Is this like having a store of her own?

Towards evening, Qingwen knocked on the door and came in to ask her:

"I'm going to the market to buy some groceries. Would you like to go shopping with me? The food is cheaper at night. The original owner and I always buy groceries and cook together, and then we split the bill."

"AA system?" Lin Pin'er was puzzled.

"Everyone contributes a portion, and then we cook together."

"I see. Just like the small kitchen in our garden?" Lin Pin'er replied.

"Yeah. I'll take you out for a walk."

"Okay." Lin Pin'er quickly stood up and prepared to go out.

"Wait, you can't go out in your pajamas." He walked to a small cabinet in the room, opened it and helped Lin Pin'er choose.

"Just wear this." Qingwen held up a long dress with mid-length sleeves and discussed with her.

"Yeah." Lin Pin'er looked at the clothes, which were of a fresh and unique style.

"By the way, my original name in reincarnation is Wu Qing. You must never call me by my name in my previous life again. I have been reincarnated, so don't mention anything about that life anymore."

Lin Pin'er silently recited the words "Wu Qing". She recalled the "Fu Rong Nv Er" written in regular script by Baoyu under the lotus branches in the garden that year. She also remembered that Baoyu said he wanted to change the original text to: Under the red gauze window, the young lady is passionate; in the loess ridge, the maid is miserable. She blamed Baoyu at that time, but now it seems that this is a prophecy of her and Qingwen's reunion today.

After Lin Pin'er got dressed, she went out with Wu Qing.

It was still not dark in the evening. It was the end of June, the midsummer weather, and there were many people walking in the streets to enjoy the cool air, and it was very noisy everywhere. Lin Pin'er didn't dare to look around, she just lowered her head slightly and followed behind Wu Qing.

"Follow me, don't go to the road. There are vehicles passing by, you and I should walk on the crosswalk."

Lin Pin'er nodded slightly and followed her. After a few steps, Wu Qing led her into a bustling market. Lin Pin'er looked at the various vegetables and felt as if she were in another world.

As soon as they entered the market, Wu Qing held Lin Pin'er's hand.

"There are too many people here, we can't get separated."

"Uh-huh."

The sounds of hawking and bargaining could be heard everywhere.

Wu Qing had a sophisticated and aggressive personality. She bought vegetables from this store and looked at eggs from that store. Lin Pin'er was very envious. She had never been to such a market before. She clenched her hands tightly, but her mind was secretly recording:

Tomatoes cost 1.35 yuan per pound

Cucumber 90 cents a pound

Broccoli one yuan per pound

White radish 40 cents a pound

Lin Pin'er suddenly realized that she seemed to be inexplicably sensitive to the prices of these items, and even remembered them by heart. She could also quickly calculate the prices of the dishes after weighing them.
