Quick travel: the leisurely life of cannon fodder

Lin Daiyu and Mu Xi lived a comfortable life in the Lin Mansion.

After breakfast!

Mu Xi looked at Lin Daiyu and said, "Sister, how have you been learning from Madam Mo these days? How about I take you to the temple to burn incense tomorrow?"

When Lin Daiyu heard this, she immediately became interested and said, "Okay, sister. I want to go out and play, too."

Mu Xi nodded and agreed.

At this time, Butler Kobayashi came in with a post.

"Miss, this was sent from the Jia Mansion."

Mu Xi took the invitation, took a look at it, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Lin Daiyu curiously leaned over and asked softly, "Sister, what's written in this post?"

Mu Xi curled her lips slightly and said, "Nothing, it's just that a few cousins ​​of Tanchun in the Jia Mansion are organizing a small flower viewing party and they want to invite us. Sister, do you want to go?"

Lin Daiyu pondered for a moment and said, "Sister, I don't want to go. The flower-viewing party is so boring. It's better to go to the horse farm to race horses! But it's not good to refuse."

Mu Xi said jokingly, "You don't want to see your cousin Baoyu?"

When Lin Daiyu heard the name, she frowned slightly and retorted, "Sister, I don't want to see him. He is very frivolous."

When Mu Xi heard this, her eyes lit up. It’s good that she doesn’t like it.

Lin Daiyu was a little shy, but also full of expectation and yearning, and said, "Sister, I want to find a husband who is good at both literature and martial arts, and likes to travel around the mountains and rivers. Then we can travel all over the mountains and rivers of the Qing Dynasty and be a pair of chivalrous lovers who travel the world with swords, live happily, punish evil and promote good."

Hearing this, Mu Xi held her forehead and asked, "Sister, what storybooks have you read recently?"

“.......”Lin Daiyu was silent.

Then he said excitedly, "Sister, I just read a few martial arts novels. You see, I have martial arts skills now, but if I don't do anything, wouldn't it be a waste of my learning?"

Mu Xi nodded casually and said perfunctorily, "Yeah! There is nothing wrong with what you said. If you learn it but don't use it, it will be a waste of time."

Afterwards, Mu Xi began to think about the feasibility of this matter, or to find such a husband for Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu didn't care about Mu Xi's attitude and continued, "Sister, do we still need to attend the flower viewing party at the Jia Mansion?"

When Mu Xi heard this, she smiled and said to Lin Daiyu, "Since you don't want to go, just refuse. It's no big deal."

Then Mu Xi called housekeeper Xiao Lin in and said, "Tell Tanchun and her cousins ​​that Daiyu and I have to go pray for our father, so we don't have time. Go to the storehouse and prepare a gift to send over as an apology."

Butler Kobayashi received the order and went downstairs.

Afterwards, Mu Xi chatted with Lin Daiyu for a while, then went to the martial arts training ground to compete a few times before taking a break.

In the Jia Mansion!

Jia Baoyu lay listlessly by the window, looking at the scenery outside and uttering a few sighs from time to time.

"I don't know when Sister Daiyu will be free to come and play with me!"

"I haven't seen you for so many days. I really miss you."

.......

When Jia Baoyu saw pairs of flying birds, he couldn't help but think of Lin Daiyu.

At this time, Tanchun came in and asked with a chuckle, "Second brother, what's wrong with you?"

Jia Baoyu glanced at the person who came, then lay back down again and asked weakly, "I heard that you are going to hold a flower viewing party. I wonder if you have invited Sister Daiyu."

Tanchun rolled her eyes and realized what was going on. She smiled and said, "Second brother, you are missing her."

Jia Baoyu nodded slightly.

Tanchun smiled again and said, "I did invite cousin Daiyu. But..."

Tanchun paused deliberately.

Upon hearing this, Jia Baoyu immediately said softly, "Third sister, please tell me now, don't keep me in suspense."

Tanchun heard this and said, "But my cousin had to go and pray for her uncle, so she didn't come."

Jia Baoyu was discouraged when he heard this, and said unhappily, "This doesn't provide any useful information. I still can't meet my cousin Daiyu."

Hearing this, Tanchun rolled her eyes and said, "If cousin Daiyu doesn't come, won't you take the initiative to find someone? You can also go to the temple and meet cousin Daiyu by chance."

When Jia Baoyu heard this, his eyes lit up. This was a good idea, and he quickly thanked his third sister.

After knowing this, Jia's mother didn't say much. Instead, she asked people to find out about Lin Daiyu and help Jia Baoyu.

evening!

Mu Xi was playing with the peach blossom knot in her hand, looking into the distance with some vague eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Jia Baoyu should resolve this issue as soon as possible, otherwise it would be bad for Lin Daiyu's reputation.

Then, the shape of the embroidery knot in her hand changed, and she handed the jade pendant to Lin Zilan next to her.

She said softly, "Deal with this jade pendant and give it to someone else. Let Jia Baoyu harm others instead of thinking about Lin Daiyu all day long."

Lin Zilan disappeared into the yard with the jade pendant, found a dirty stray dog, and put it directly on the dog.

The next day, Mu Xi took Lin Daiyu to the foot of the mountain in a carriage. The two of them climbed up slowly like other pilgrims.

After burning incense and worshiping Buddha, the two planned to visit the Tiaohua forest on the back mountain.

Lin Daiyu looked at the beautiful scenery and felt happy. She pulled Mu Xi forward with a smile on her face. They came to a remote and deserted place. A breeze blew and peach petals slowly fell.

Mu Xi and Lin Daiyu seemed to be surrounded by a sea of ​​flowers.

"Sister, so beautiful!"

Lin Daiyu's laughter sounded like a silver bell.

Mu Xi also curled her lips and smiled.

Beauty is like a painting, and now this picture of beauty has fallen into the eyes of others.

Jia Baoyu, who came specifically to see Lin Daiyu, was stunned by this scene and couldn't recover for a long time.

It was not until Mu Xi and Lin Daiyu had gone far away that Jia Baoyu reacted and quickly followed them.

After everyone had left, several men in brocade robes and with imposing manners walked out from behind a rockery.

"These two girls are so lively. I wonder which family they belong to."

A young man in blue asked, waving the folding fan in his hand.

"Lin Ruhai's legitimate daughter."

A young man in a black brocade robe replied in a slightly cold voice.

"how do you know?"

"We have met once before, let's go quickly."

"Hey......"

After several young masters from noble families left.

There were also a few young men with the same noble airs on another rockery who saw this scene and heard the conversation. They looked intently in the direction where Mu Xi and Lin Daiyu left, and then left.

Jia Baoyu quickly caught up with Mu Xi and Lin Daiyu.

"Cousin, what a coincidence, are you here to pray as well?"

Mu Xi frowned slightly when she saw the person coming. Why was he everywhere?

Lin Daiyu restrained her smile. Why did someone come to disturb her and her sister's world of two? She replied perfunctorily, "What a coincidence! My sister and I will not disturb my cousin."

Jia Baoyu became anxious when he heard this. He looked at Lin Daiyu straight in the eyes and said, "Hey, cousin Daiyu, don't be in a hurry to leave. Since we are destined to meet, why don't we go out and have some fun together?"

Lin Daiyu felt a little uncomfortable being looked at, and said politely, "No, my sister and I are tired, cousin, you should find someone else."

Mu Xi's eyes flashed with displeasure, and she said impatiently, "Cousin, we won't disturb your fun. We'll leave first."

After saying this, he took Lin Daiyu away.

Jia Baoyu wanted to chase after him, but at this time a stray dog ​​jumped out and blocked his way.

Jia Baoyu did not mind the dirty stray dog. He felt fond of it and picked it up.

The stray dog ​​did not struggle and stayed obediently in Jia Baoyu's arms.

Afterwards, Jia Baoyu quietly brought the stray dog ​​back to the Jia Mansion and raised it himself.

After Mu Xi took Lin Daiyu away, she found that Jia Baoyu did not follow them, and she couldn't help but feel confused.

Xiaotian said happily, "Host, Jia Baoyu has returned with the stray dog."

Stray dog?

The stray dog ​​wearing a embroidered knot?

Aren’t we in the city? How did we get here?

Mu Xi asked the system curiously, "Xiaotian, what's going on?"

Xiaotian: "That stray dog ​​followed Jia Baoyu here. It was because of the power of the embroidery knot that the stray dog ​​came here..."

After Mu Xi knew what was going on, she ignored it. She thought that Jia Baoyu would never come to see Lin Daiyu again.

Afterwards, Mu Xi and Lin Daiyu were tired from shopping, so they went to eat vegetarian food in the temple and then left and returned home.
