Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Lin Daiyu was stunned. "Mother, why are you doing this? Is our home no longer safe?"

Jia Min didn't dare to say what she had done, she looked at Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai smiled helplessly at Lin Daiyu, with a hint of tolerance in that smile.

What does this mean? What is the riddle you two are talking about?

Seeing that no one spoke up for her, Jia Min had to explain herself.

"Daiyu, now that your father has been severely criticized by the emperor, I am afraid that it will bring trouble to the servants at home."

Lin Daiyu exclaimed in her heart, wow, the good person Jia Min is so good at internal conflicts.

You haven't done anything serious like confiscating property or exterminating a clan.

Even in the book "Dream of the Red Chamber", when the Jia family was confiscated, the maids and servants were at most bought by other families and it was no big deal.

Instead, the masters are more miserable than each other.

Isn't it tiring to live with such a heavy heart every day?

Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu said directly to Jia Min, "Mother, you are too tired."

"Don't you think you're harming your father by doing this?"

Jia Min was stunned and looked at her family guiltily, "How did I harm your father?"

Lin Daiyu patiently explained to her, "There is nothing wrong with our family, but you dismissed the servants and are still so scared."

"If others knew about this, they would think we had done something drastic, confiscating our property and destroying our clan."

"Tell me, have you harmed your family?"

Jia Min's face turned pale and she stood there in a daze, feeling panicked. Am I so obvious?

When Lin Daiyu saw that Jia Min looked unhappy, she comforted her and said, "Mother, you are willing to sacrifice your life to bring down the emperor."

"We are upright and have nothing to fear!"

"Even if we die, we will die together. What is there to be afraid of?"

Lin Daiyu's words were so rebellious and righteous, and she said them on the second day of the Chinese New Year.

Jia Min pointed at Lin Daiyu with trembling fingers and said, "Take it back. Take back what you said."

Lin Daiyu covered her mouth and said, "Take it back."

"I'll take it back. Don't be so frightened all the time. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up!"

After saying that, he walked out directly.

Jia Min didn't know what to say. She glared at Lin Ruhai.

"It's all your fault, you spoiled kid. He's crazy. If he's this crazy, what's going to happen in the future?"

Lin Ruhai reached out and pushed Jia Min's finger back.

"Let's talk about the future later. Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year, which is unlucky."

After being teased by her daughter, Jia Min's fear gradually faded away.

Yes, life and death are together, what is there to fear?

When Yong'an saw his sister go out, he also put down his bowl.

He said, "I'm going to the study."

Went out on my own.

……

Outside the Lin residence, Old Mother Ye looked at Zijuan and her family reuniting, and she felt extremely anxious.

Ten thousand taels! Who wouldn't be anxious?

I didn't expect that Master Ying'er really did what she said. Ying'er was very lucky to follow such a master.

She waited for a while and saw that Lin Daiyu had not come out yet, and Zijuan's family was about to follow Zijuan.

Old Ye's mother couldn't bear it anymore, and in a hurry, she grabbed Zijuan's arm.

"Miss Zijuan, you can't leave! Where's your young lady? You can't lie to me, right?"

Zijuan used her hands to pry her hands apart, "Old Ye Madam! Look, isn't our young lady here?"

"How could our young lady lie?"

"Old Madam Ye looked carefully and saw Lin Daiyu approaching.

Lin Daiyu first nodded to Old Mother Ye, and then signaled Zijuan to leave with her family.

Zijuan's family came forward to greet her, but Lin Daiyu waved her hand and said gently:

"You don't have to be polite. You are also implicated by me."

"No need to salute. Discuss with Zijuan whether you are going to be a free man or continue to serve."

"Just tell Zijuan once you've discussed it. She can make the arrangements for you."

Zijuan's family naturally expressed their gratitude profusely, and then left with Zijuan.

Old Mother Ye watched the master and servant getting along happily and talking animatedly.

She was so anxious that she was jumping up and down.

Don't cross the river and burn the bridge! Otherwise, I will have to scold you.

At this moment, Lin Daiyu came over quietly, raised her eyebrows,

He walked up to Old Ye's mother and whispered in her ear, "Tonight at the beginning of the night, under the big tree at the gate of Rongguo Mansion."

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, but Old Ye's mother stopped her and said, "Ms. Lin, that's all I have to say. I'm going to go there so late at night."

"What if there isn't?"

Lin Daiyu glared, "Old Ye Ma, I saw it there."

"Of course I told you there."

Old Ye's mother was stimulated by the 10,000 taels of silver, and her mind became clearer. "Why at night?"

"You said no one saw it, so can't it be done during the day?"

"Or can't you just give it to me directly?"

Lin Daiyu glanced at her and said, "Old Ye Ma, do you think I can get through?"

"I was chased away before I even got close. If I could take it, I would certainly take it for you."

"Also, let me remind you that it's best if you bring a ladder."

"No..." Old Ye's mother retorted casually, but she couldn't keep up with Lin Daiyu's quick thinking.

"I can find that thing if I stand under a big tree?"

"How many times have you searched for that place?"

“The big tree is so conspicuous.”

Lin Daiyu thought to herself, it would be strange if I could find it.

I haven't set it off yet, I can only set it off at night.

Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu said directly to Old Ye's mother, "Old Ye's mother, it's because I'm so conspicuous that no one noticed me!"

"I'll just tell you one way. Stand under the tree and look up."

"I was standing right there that day. I looked up."

"What if I can't find it?" asked Old Ye's mother.

Lin Daiyu asked back, "What do you mean? You don't believe me?"

"My Miss Lin lied to you? If you can't find it, come find me, but I promised you that it would be at that hour. If it is picked up by someone else."

"You can't blame me."

"Why can't we just hand over the money and the goods?"

"No, you have to find someone to accompany me tonight."

"I promised someone else..." As soon as she finished speaking, Old Ye's mother covered her mouth.

"That's fine, you are really careful," Lin Daiyu said to her.

"I'll have someone run with you tonight, okay?"

Seeing that Old Ye's mother was about to open her mouth, Lin Daiyu said angrily:

"Mother Ye, I have said this much. If you say more, I will get angry. If I get angry, I might do something."

"Maybe I can ask someone to pick it up myself. Or maybe I can ask someone else to pick it up. It doesn't have to be just your mother Ye."

"And you think I'll just go over to the Second Wife and tell her I saw it."

"Do you think the Second Madam will let me in?"

Well then! Having said that, Old Ye's mother was so scared that she was speechless.

Lin Daiyu was also a little angry. What was going on?

If I didn't want to get involved with Jia Baoyu, I wouldn't have gone through so much trouble.

Sometimes I doubt myself and wonder if I am being too cautious.

Who cares about the male or female protagonist!

I am who I am!

Fireworks in different colors!

boom! ...

Exploded! The sky was lit up.

……

"Miss Zijuan, it's almost time, the lanterns are all lit!"

Old Ye's mother said to Zijuan beside her while complaining,

For this exciting moment of the night.

She also found a witness, Ying'er.

When Ying'er first found out, she was shocked and swore that she had been cheated.

The big tree is right at the gate. Who except a blind person can’t see the people coming and going?

Finally, he said that the Lin family also sent people.

Ying'er reluctantly agreed.

Old Mother Ye was anxious all day until Zijuan arrived on time.

They came under the big tree one after another, waiting for the appointed time to come.
