Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Nanny Gu looked at Lin Daiyu lovingly: "People like this are usually passionate and talkative. If you are like her, after a few interactions, you might even treat her as a close friend with whom you can talk about anything..."

Before she finished speaking, Daiyu's eyes lit up and she agreed excitedly, "Yes, yes, yes! That's it!"

Daiyu immediately thought of Shi Xiangyun, who had not yet appeared. Isn’t she just like that?

Gu Mama stared at Daiyu with an expression that said, "Do you still want to hear more?" Daiyu felt a little embarrassed. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Please continue. I promise not to interrupt you. Haha!"

Gu Mama continued, "Then change the subject. If she asks about your personal affairs, or asks you to do something you don't want to do, you can change the subject to someone else. For example, talk about topics that they are interested in, or topics that they don't want to mention.

This method is similar to being ambiguous. People of this type are often very curious and like to pry into other people's private affairs or news. You can give them some ambiguous answers so that they can't figure out your true thoughts.

After a few times, they will find that they can’t get the information they want from you, and they will naturally lose interest, or they will understand that you are on guard against them and stop pestering them. "

Nanny Gu's words suddenly enlightened Daiyu. She might have known these methods before, but she could not summarize them like Nanny Gu did, or use them reasonably.

"Just like if you want to cover up a melon, you have to expose a bigger melon, right?" Daiyu's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Gu Mama asked doubtfully, "Melon?"

"Ahem - it's just gossip and idle news." Daiyu leaned in Nanny Gu's arms and lowered her head guiltily.

Gu Ma nodded: "That's right. The reason why the girl doesn't like this kind of people is actually to protect herself. The girl is still young, so it's right to do so. When the girl grows up, she will know that the most effective means of defense is to take the initiative to attack."

Nanny Gu has been in the palace for many years, and has worked her way up to the position of a sixth-rank official, accumulating a lot of skills and knowledge.

Daiyu gained a lot from her words. She felt that sending the mirror was the right decision.

Not only did she win the emperor's reward, but she also gained two maids who were like her right-hand men. With their company and teachings, she no longer had to worry about anyone questioning her upbringing. She really made a fortune.

Even Xue Baochai had to humbly seek advice from Nanny Gu, which is enough to prove the importance of these two maids.

"Madame Gu, I'll leave all the maids in my yard to you from now on!" Daiyu hugged Madame Gu and rubbed against her arms.

Nanny Gu had seen countless people, so she could naturally tell that Daiyu's words were from the heart.

She was very emotional. She had originally thought that she would die of old age in the palace, but she had never expected that His Majesty would let Eunuch Xia say such a thing. And she also seized this opportunity.

"Yes! Nanny will take care of everything for you!"

"Mammy, can you tell me about your time in the palace? What does the emperor look like?" Daiyu's eyes were full of curiosity.

Nanny Gu tapped Daiyu's brow and reminded her, "Your Majesty is not someone who can talk about things casually! Well, it's getting late, young lady, it's time to go to bed!"

It was the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the year again, and Sister Yuan had her first birthday party. Grandmother Jia was overjoyed, and the party was held with great ceremony.

When it was time for the one-year-old celebration, Yuan Jie'er's little hands grabbed the pen and account book, which made Wang Xifeng very happy.

Daiyu also teased her, saying, "I think Sister Yuan will be like my second sister-in-law in the future. She will definitely be a good housekeeper!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng waved her hands hastily: "Ah! How can a little kid like her know how to manage a household? Just don't cause me any trouble!"

As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Mrs. Wang's expression.

She rejected the proposals of Lady Jia and Lady Wang several times, feeling a little unsure, fearing that she would upset Lady Jia. Fortunately, Lady Jia still loved Yuan Jie'er very much, which also made Wang Xifeng feel relieved.

But when she thought of her stomach which had not moved for a long time, she felt anxious again.

Daiyu approached Wang Xifeng and smelled a faint smell of medicine on her body. Daiyu asked in a low voice: "What medicine are you taking recently, sister-in-law?"

"The imperial physician Wang, who was invited to the mansion, gave me some tonic medicine. But I've been taking it for more than half a year, and it doesn't seem to have any effect." Wang Xifeng smiled, her voice as soft as a mosquito.

"Why don't you go out and look carefully to see if there is a doctor who is more skilled in this field. I think the doctor who treated you last time was very good. Sister Yuan is in such good health now!" Daiyu smiled as she watched Sister Yuan crawling on the kang. She walked over, picked her up, and weighed her in her hands. She felt heavy.

"Oh my girl! Don't underestimate Sister Yuan, she is so small, she is very heavy!" Ping'er hurriedly stepped forward and took Sister Yuan.

Daiyu rubbed her hands for a while. Before she could satisfy her desire to hold the baby, Ping'er took him away.

She touched Yuan Jie'er's little face and said, "Look at how plump and fair Yuan Jie is. The milk she drank was not in vain!"

Wang Xifeng said gratefully, "Yes! I also want to thank you for the milk you sent me. It was only then that I was able to stop breastfeeding so smoothly."

Daiyu's lips curled up into a wicked smile and she teased Wang Xifeng, "I think Second Brother Lian is anxious and wants Sister Yuan to be weaned as soon as possible! Hahahaha!"

"You have such a mean little mouth! Only I know it, it's so harsh!" Wang Xifeng blushed and pretended to be angry, tickling Daiyu.

But soon, Wang Xifeng's smile fell and her expression became gloomy.

Daiyu looked around and saw that only Ping'er was holding Yuanjie'er in the inner room, coaxing her to sleep. She then pulled Wang Xifeng to the window and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's on your mind?"

A trace of loneliness flashed across Wang Xifeng's eyes. She suddenly felt so lonely in this mansion: of the four maids who came with her as dowry, only Ping'er and Feng'er were left by her side, and there was not even anyone with whom she could talk from the bottom of her heart.

The only thing that gave her some comfort was the little kid next to her who was not even ten years old.

Maybe it was because Daiyu lost her mother at a young age, but Wang Xifeng always felt that her features revealed insight and intelligence beyond those of children of the same age.

Daiyu noticed Wang Xifeng's scrutiny and secretly complained about her small body. She continued to comfort her, "Sister-in-law, if you have any problems, please tell me. Although I can't help you solve your worries, I can go back and ask the two maids. They are my military advisors!"

Puff - Wang Xifeng stretched out her hand and pinched Daiyu's chubby face, and said with a smile: "What kind of storybooks do you read on weekdays, little kid? You even know about military advisors. Then let me ask you, do you have any soldiers under your command?"

When Daiyu heard this, she looked as if she was looking down on me. She said unconvincedly, "Sister-in-law, you are looking down on me! I have Lan Rui! Don't look at her young age, but she is very strong, not inferior to an adult man at all!"
