Red Mansion and Crimson Pearl
Chapter 75: All Businesses in the World Will Suffer Losses
Are you angry?
Zijuan did not dare to ask more questions, but waited silently for Daiyu to lose her temper. She knew that her daughter had always been a person who kept things to herself, and now that she was finally willing to speak out, she could not interrupt her before it would not accumulate in her heart and hurt her internal organs.
"Earlier, she wanted to use my grandmother to pressure me, as if she knelt down and said something, I would let her enter Lixiangyuan to benefit from it. I taught her a lesson at that time, but didn't I bow my head and pledge my loyalty later?
"Now that I have helped her, she wants to use me as she pleases! If she doesn't want to do something, then she doesn't have to do it! Then I don't want to go to Rongguo Mansion from now on. Can I really not go?
"Go tell her tomorrow: There is no business in the world where you can only take advantage without suffering any loss!
"The madam is willing to take her out because she wants to value her. If she is worthless, then the madam will just sell her to someone for marriage! So, let her behave well!
“Besides that, she doesn’t have to ask others to teach her how to eat, go, and invite people to New Year’s Eve dinner. She just needs to pay attention and watch. That’ll be all!
"The relationship between the family and the outside world is not something that can be decided by the wife alone. In the end, it is up to the old lady to make the final decision. She should make a good score for me. This is the most important thing!
"Also, ask her again: She said she was going to come to my house to do that big thing, is she ready? During the New Year's ancestor worship, Master Jing must go home no matter what, what has she found out?
"Have you met Master Jing? Have Master Zhen and Brother Rong discussed any important matters with this master? If she knows nothing, how can she do it? The method she told me herself, is she expecting others to complete it for her? Or is she planning to let me do it all?
"Her last name is Jia, but mine is not! How can these dirty things bother me?! Tomorrow, when everyone pushes her down, I will clap my hands outside and watch her get buried!"
Lin Daiyu was aggressive and vented her anger. Zijuan hurriedly brought her some water and said, "Miss, you are thirsty!"
Daiyu took it and drank it all in one gulp. The anger in her heart finally calmed down a little. She glanced at Zijuan and saw how cautious she was. She sighed:
"That's all. You're tired today, go to bed early. Go at a similar time tomorrow so that not too many people can see you."
Zijuan agreed and helped her lie down. She also arranged for Xiaohong to take the little maids to watch the night. Before leaving, she first went to find Xueyan to ask about the previous matter, and sighed silently.
It is really an injustice from the previous life, and I don’t know how it will end.
The next day, Zijuan got up early and went to the Jia Mansion to deliver something and pass on a message. When she came back, she saw Daiyu taking a walk in the garden after breakfast.
Zijuan followed and answered the questions one by one: "Grandma was very happy and asked Lang'er to kowtow in the direction of our home before she left.
"Master Miao was very surprised to see the inkstone. He didn't even thank me. He just asked me to bring it back to you. He also said: It's vulgar to go around in this way!"
As she spoke, she brought out a small teacup, which was exactly the "Dianxiqiao" teacup that Daiyu used to drink tea in the Rongcui Temple.
Daiyu was immediately amused: "She has such a mean mind!"
Zijuan just smiled and said nothing.
Daiyu thought about it, then turned teasing and smiled, "Go back and look in the storehouse. There is a bronze flying bear inkstone from the Han Dynasty. Don't go this time. You are too kind and gentle to provoke her anger!"
"Let Qingwen send it off, and add this sentence: I heard you have another bell here, called ban (left-point right-melon, pronounced ban) jing jia!"
Zijuan was amused and burst out laughing: "Young lady, you are throwing a tantrum again! I heard from my wet nurse that this inkstone is the master's favorite thing, and it is worth a fortune! You can use it to vent your anger!"
"What do you know? This bell was once passed down from the hands of Wang Kai during the Jin Dynasty, and was treasured by Su Daxueshi during the Song Dynasty. It is as valuable as the inkstone! Although I won't take advantage of her, I won't let her take advantage of me either!"
Daiyu smiled mischievously.
Zijuan had no choice but to agree.
Finally, it comes to Tanchun: "I went to Qiu Shuang Zhai on the pretext of asking for advice on who the third lady was going to bring with her so that I could clean up the house.
"When the third young lady heard what I said, her face turned pale and her eyes turned red. Shishu and Cui Mo were there at the time, and both of them were sobbing. Shishu even advised the third young lady not to come to our house.
"But the third girl ignored her and told me: If this was the second question the girl gave her, she would definitely be able to do it well!"
Lin Daiyu smiled softly and turned the handkerchief in her hand calmly: "So among all the women in the Jia family, the first one I look up to is this Third Miss. If it were someone else, even Feng Lazi, I'm afraid she wouldn't have the courage to come to me and ask for a scolding!"
"Young lady, you suppress her so harshly that even the maids around her are angry. Young lady, aren't you afraid that she will gain power in the future and take revenge on you?" Zijuan was a little nervous.
Just as they reached the corner of the yard, Lin Daiyu looked up at the two bare wintering jujube trees and smiled sweetly: "Why would I be afraid of her? Even if she gains the upper hand again, she won't be able to fight back when I want to pull her down!"
Looking back at the shocked Zijuan, he smiled and said, "Forget it, you've been running all morning and haven't eaten yet! Go warm up, eat, change clothes and come back.
"Aunt Meng is addicted. Winning Qingwen and Xueyan is no longer interesting. She insists on waiting for you and Xueyan to play cards with her. She also yells that she wants to teach me! You should go and accompany her and give up this ridiculous idea of hers!"
Zijuan came back to her senses and couldn't help laughing: "Aunt is free now, and she can play with the girl. If the uncle hears about it, he will be very happy!"
When Lin Daiyu heard her mention Tao Xingjian, she couldn't help but feel worried and disappointed: "That's right, there's no news from my uncle. I wonder if he has been so busy in the palace these days that he has had time to eat and drink."
As the two were talking, Qingwen came over with a smile and said, "Tao Jian said that today is the day for ordinary ladies to return to their parents' homes. Unfortunately, he cannot leave the palace and see the girl. He specially sent something here to celebrate for the girl.
"Jiang Yong and Xiao Hong were leading people to move things in. They said that they were all extremely valuable and that no one was allowed to touch them. Xiao Hong was watching in person while Jiang Yong moved things in personally. Aunt Shan was waiting at the second gate and would move in with Aunt Lin and Mother Yan in a little while.
"I said I would go and help, but Jiang Yong said he disliked my clumsiness and would rather not let me do anything from now on. Go back and take a look, girl. I'm not convinced.
"There are so many good things in Rong Mansion, such as glass cups and agate bowls, which you can eat, drink and play with. I have seen and ruined them, but he doesn't even know whether he has heard of them or not! You are disgusted with me!"
Lin Daiyu laughed and asked Zijuan to clean up first, while she was supported by Qingwen and went back to her room.
Sure enough, Lin, Shan and Yan were wiping their sweat while gathered nearby, staring at the three things placed on the floor in the room with surprise and joy, and whispering to each other.
Xueyan and Xiaohong looked confused, while Aunt Meng looked at her strangely.
Lin Daiyu's heart paused, she lowered her eyes slightly and looked at the three things, and immediately her scalp went numb!
