Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 254 The dust has settled

Everyone thought this was a good idea and expressed their agreement.

At this moment, Wang jumped out and loudly refuted: "No! How can we let Li Wan, the culprit who killed Zhu'er, be the head of the family! I don't agree!"

Daiyu just smiled and bowed her head. She had known for a long time that Wang had always disliked Li Wan and often set rules for her and tortured her.

A young woman in her early twenties spent her days like a piece of rotten wood, without any vitality.

Mrs. Xing no longer needed to give in to Wang and glared at her: "You have no right to speak here!"

Grandmother Jia also completely ignored her and turned to Daiyu and said, "Girl, grandma wants to borrow two maids from you to take care of Wang Shi. Is that okay?"

"Grandmother, why are you being so polite to me!" Daiyu said, turning her head to look at Lan Rui and Xue Yan, "You two stay here and take turns to keep an eye on Wang Shi. Don't let her mess things up."

"Yes, girl!" Lan Rui responded excitedly.

She had long disliked Wang, and now that she could look after her personally, it was like pie in the sky.

Wang watched Lan Rui approaching step by step, and her back began to ache again.

After the discussion was almost over, Jia Mu felt a severe headache. She pounded her forehead in pain and waved her hand tiredly: "You all should go away! Go back and take a good inventory of the people in the courtyard. Those who are old enough should be released, and those who should be married off should be married off, and those who should be raised should be raised in a good way."

What this meant was that they should go back and count the people in the yard and completely eliminate Wang's influence from the Jia family.

The servants in the Rongguo Mansion have become redundant over the generations, and now is a good time to clean them up.

Jia She, Mrs. Xing and Jia Zheng left Lady Jia's courtyard one after another.

Grandmother Jia paused, then said to Daiyu, "Yu'er, go out and find Humber, and let her take you to settle Wang."

Daiyu replied respectfully, "Yes," and was about to go out to call for help, but Mrs. Wang stopped her, stared at her sinisterly, and asked, "When did you start to doubt me? Where did you reveal the flaw?"

Yeah, when?

Daiyu couldn't help but fall into deep thought and began to recall her experiences since coming to this world.

"It was probably on the way to the capital when a doctor diagnosed me with fetal poison."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang suddenly realized that Daiyu had already begun to doubt her since then. No wonder Daiyu had always been respectful to her but not close to her.

Grandmother Jia also interrupted, "Yu'er, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Grandma, I had just arrived at the Duke's Mansion at that time. I was unfamiliar with the place and didn't know anyone. Even Grandma was meeting me for the first time. If I had told you at that time that I suspected someone in the Duke's Mansion had poisoned my mother, would you have believed it?"

Daiyu looked directly into Grandmother Jia's eyes and said firmly, "No, you won't believe it. On the contrary, I will have a hard time in this Duke's Mansion, being ostracized and criticized everywhere, and experiencing the pain of living under someone else's roof. It may even be like what Wang said, that I will die of blood loss before I turn 18!"

What Grandmother Jia heard was terrified. She subconsciously did not dare to think further about Daiyu's description, as that would be too cruel for her.

"No! No way! You are my granddaughter. How can you be considered as a dependent in your maternal grandparents' house?"

Hehehe——

Wang's sarcastic laughter rang out in the flower hall, as if she was mocking Lady Jia for not daring to face the chaos in the mansion.

"Go, all of you go!"

Finally, Grandmother Jia could no longer hold on, she staggered to her feet and walked into the inner room. Her back looked particularly old and helpless.

Daiyu watched her leave, then glanced coldly at Wang and told Lan Rui, "Shut up first. I'll go find Sister Amber."

"No! You can't do this!" Wang was a little crazy at this moment, struggling non-stop, "I am the mistress of this Duke's Mansion! You can't do this to me!"

Daiyu would not be fooled by Wang's behavior.

She leaned closer to Wang and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “You don’t need to pretend like this, no matter what, I won’t take it lightly.

By the way, I have long wanted to tell you that you didn't have to remind me to stay away from your precious son. In my eyes, he is no different from those cockfighting dandies out there.

You always think that your second uncle favors Aunt Zhao and doesn't respect you as his wife; but have you ever thought that Baoyu also has an affair with the maids in his room. You hate your second uncle, but why don't you hate your son as well?"

Wang's face turned ashen in an instant, her eyes blazing with fire. She would not allow anyone to slander her Baoyu!

Just as Wang was about to speak, Lan Rui stuffed a silk handkerchief into her mouth. It was the same handkerchief that Jia Zheng had just pulled out and thrown on the ground.

She widened her eyes, obviously noticing the origin of Lan Rui's handkerchief.

She tried hard to spit out the handkerchief, but her hands were firmly tied behind her back by Lan Rui. It was impossible for her to push the handkerchief out with the power of her tongue alone. She could only hum in anxiety.

Unfortunately, Wang's struggle was not enough to stop Lan Rui.

She winked at Daiyu mischievously: "Miss, don't worry! Xueyan and I will definitely keep a good eye on Wang and will never let her run away!"

"A mischievous ghost!"

Daiyu didn't care about Wang's murderous look at all. She flirted with Lan Rui and left Rongqing Hall.

Daiyu walked out of the hall step by step, accompanied by Wang's angry sobs. Her steps became lighter and lighter, as if the restraints in her body were slowly dissipating.

Suddenly, a warm current surged from her body, flowing through her meridians. The small bottleneck that had been blocking her for a long time was successfully broken through, and her internal strength increased significantly.

When the internal force in her body gradually calmed down, Daiyu smiled and said to Baishao and Luluo: "Today is a good day! Let's go back and celebrate for Xichun!"

After saying this, Daiyu started running, completely losing the reserved demeanor of a lady from a noble family that she had always maintained.

When she returned to Lixiangyuan, the smile on Daiyu's face did not fade away.

Yingchun was a little confused when she saw her excitement, but when she saw Daiyu excitedly taking out the gift she had prepared for Xichun, she thought that she was just happy because of Xichun's birthday.

At dinner time, the maids came in with plates of delicious dishes, some of which the sisters had never seen before.

Yingchun noticed that there were only two plates of vegetarian dishes on the table, and even two jars of rice wine. She couldn't help but remind him, "You are still in mourning, it's not appropriate for you to drink!"

Although this wine is just rice wine with a very low alcohol content and will not make people drunk easily, if such behavior gets out, it will inevitably be criticized.

Daiyu understood that Yingchun was concerned about her, and touched the back of Yingchun's smooth hand: "I know what's going on. Today is a happy day, and it's a good day for sister Xichun, so it's okay to drink a little!"
