For the first time, Jia She looked his cowardly daughter squarely in the eye and tapped her knee lightly with his index finger. He didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either.

"I'm afraid the old lady won't understand. After all, she loves you so much. If you suddenly run for election, wouldn't that go against the wishes of the old lady?"

Su Tong immediately understood what Jia She meant. The other party approved of his trying his luck in the palace, but was afraid of angering the old lady.

"Father, don't you understand? The old lady has only liked Baoyu from the beginning to the end. It is estimated that the entire Rongguo Mansion will be left to Baoyu. If we don't take advantage of this time to fight for it, what will we do in the future?

Besides, my participation in the election was stipulated by the royal family. No matter how reluctant the old lady was, she could not stop the royal family's will. She wanted us sisters to give way to our eldest sister, but on what basis?

I am thirteen years old this year. Girls from ordinary families have started to prepare dowries, but who has made plans for me? My family has neither hired a nanny nor even planned to find a good marriage for me. It is obvious that they want to give up on me.

Father, I am also your child. If I have a promising future, it will be a good thing for Dafang. Do you have the heart to hand over the family business accumulated by your ancestors to the second wife?"

Jia She was naturally unwilling to live a life of drunkenness and debauchery over the years. On the one hand, it was because the deposed crown prince he followed had fallen, and if he did not act like he was idle, he would easily be purged from above.

On the other hand, there was no future for him. His mother favored the second wife, and even her own legitimate son was seduced by the second wife, so he could only live a life of drunkenness and dreams.

"Forget it, I will report your name. As for whether you can be selected, it depends on your luck. Even if you become an ordinary princess of the royal family, it is like staying in this mansion and never having a chance to make a breakthrough in your life." Jia She stood up slowly, rummaged in his arms for a long time, took out a few silver bills, and handed them to the servant.

"Take it, and don't accuse me as a father of being biased." After saying this, Jia She staggered away.

Su Tong counted carefully and found that his cheap father was quite generous. There were more than 300 taels of silver, enough for him to buy some jewelry.

Su Tong returned to his own small courtyard. He had no idea where the wet nurse had gone. To be honest, this wet nurse was a big trouble. She always knew how to exploit Yingchun. He had to find a way to get rid of her.

Su Tong returned to his room and was thinking about his escape plan when he heard the maid come to report that it was Lin Daiyu who had arrived. He quickly asked someone to welcome her in.

"Listen, the maid said you caught a cold these days and feel unwell. I always have some loquat jade dew ointment on hand, and I thought it might be useful to you, so I brought it to you."

Su Tong looked at Lin Daiyu, and found that she was indeed like a delicate flower reflecting in the water when she was quiet, and like a willow swaying in the wind when she moved. She was indeed not an ordinary person.

Su Tong smiled and held Sister Lin's hand, his heart trembling slightly, "Thank you Sister Lin, it's just that I got up in a hurry this morning and was blown by some cold wind, it's nothing serious."

No matter what, ever since I caught the cold, only my younger sister has come to visit me, and this thoughtfulness alone is very rare.

"Shuqi, I got some chess manuals a while ago. You can take Zijuan to have a look." Su Tong sent the servants around him away and wanted to have a personal chat with Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu raised her smart eyes slightly, as if with a hint of teasing, and just looked at Su Tong quietly.

After everyone left, Su Tong pursed his lips and said, "Sister Lin, now there are only two of us in the room. I don't know either. I'm afraid I can't stay at home for too long. I have asked my father to participate in this talent show."

Sister Lin was shocked, "Good Yingchun, why do you want to go to a place like that where people are eaten? Although it is said that the palace is rich like smoke, but once you enter the deep palace, it is as deep as the sea.

I remember that my elder sister Yuanchun has been in prison for more than ten years, but there is no news until now. You still have us by your side, why bother going to such a cannibalistic place?"

Seeing how concerned Su Tong was about Lin Daiyu, his eyes became red, "Sister Lin, you see the Jia family is rich as smoke, but behind the scenes it has long been a mess.

The old lady said that she loved me, but in fact she loved my elder sister and Baoyu the most.

Keeping me by his side is just to suppress us sisters and make way for Sister Yuanchun. After all, in terms of status, I am the proper lady in the Rongguo Mansion.

Naturally, I don't want to be a stepping stone for others, nor do I want to waste my life in such a cannibalistic place.

The old lady likes you now, but she is old. Madam Wang Er doesn’t like you and probably won’t let you and Baoyu be together.

The reason you can live so comfortably now is simply because you rely on Master Lin. Once Master Lin passes away, the Jia family will probably be wiped out.

My dear sister, I sincerely hope that you will have a good future. Baoyu is indeed very sincere and kind to others, but he is not a good man. You should always make more plans for yourself. "

To be honest, Su Tong is praising Baoyu. In fact, this guy is useless. He has no interest in studying and spends all his time trying out marriage partners among women. He also makes a fuss about how women become fish eyes after marriage, haha... He can't protect the people around him, and at such a young age, he pulls dirty and smelly things into his bed. If he wasn't the male protagonist, he would be really disgusting.

Sister Lin's face turned pale, "Yingchun, you... I... but what can I do?"

Su Tong patted the other person's hand gently, hesitated for a moment, pretended to take out two bottles of pills from his box, and handed them to Lin Daiyu.

"This is a top-quality health-preserving pill. Take one pill a day when you go back. I think it won't take long for you to recover.

Give the rest to Uncle Lin and tell him everything that happened to you in Rongguo Mansion. He is your biological father and will protect you for the rest of his life.

My dear sister, the Jia Mansion is a den of wolves. If I were a man, I would have found ways to run away far away. Unfortunately, I am a girl, and I will be trapped here for the rest of my life.

I am only thirteen years old now. A normal girl would be innocent and naive at that time, but I have to plan for a future for myself, otherwise I will be eaten up by the people in this mansion without leaving any bones. "

When Lin Daiyu heard Su Tong's words, she instantly felt the same way. Outsiders thought that she was extremely favored in Rongguo Mansion, but only she knew the real situation.

There are 365 days in a year, and the wind, frost and sword are pressing hard.

After crying her heart out, Sister Lin felt that the heavy stone in her heart had been lifted, and she said immediately, "Good sister, I will have someone write a letter to my father secretly, asking him to make preparations in advance.

Once you enter the palace, it is like entering a deep sea. My dear sister, after entering the palace, we two sisters don’t know when we can meet again. I just hope that you can be safe and sound. "

Su Tong knew in his heart that Lin Ruhai would not live for many more years, so he hoped that the pills he gave him would be effective and that he could live a few more years, at least to protect Lin Daiyu.
