Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 106: Throwing Water at People

While practicing her skills, Daiyu browsed the magic world's products in the system mall. She found that when it comes to strange and bizarre things, the magic world really takes the lead.

For example, those potions with various effects are just as magical as those described in a certain Western fantasy wizard novel in the original world.

Daiyu found it very novel and tried to take the Potions class. Unfortunately, the various materials listed in the course could not be found in this world at all, so she had to give up in the end.

She also secretly searched for the love Gu, thinking maliciously that if Yingchun needed it, she might consider exchanging it. Five hundred points, Daiyu could still afford it.

However, she had no plans to take it out in the short term: firstly, it was difficult for her to explain the origin of the love Gu; secondly, she was not sure whether Yingchun would need such a thing.

With the arrival of the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, the government offices were sealed, and the entire capital city entered a state of New Year holidays. The entire Jia Mansion was immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year.

Compared with this happy and peaceful atmosphere, Zhou Rui's family seemed a little gloomy.

Zhou Ruijia originally thought that Mrs. Wang had been persuaded by her, but she did not expect that Mrs. Wang was playing a procrastination tactic on her.

This made it so that Zhou Rui's family had a miserable New Year's Day. Zhou Rui's wife would throw things and fight at the slightest thing that made her unhappy, and her voice scolding her grandson could be heard throughout the entire aisle.

Green Lotus walked into Daiyu's room angrily and shouted, "Will they ever stop? They keep cursing at us all day long!"

Daiyu was sitting at her desk with her eyes closed in meditation. She opened her eyes and smiled when she heard this: "Since you know, why are you still angry?"

Seeing Luluo's angry look, Daiyu couldn't help laughing and continued to tease: "I think your temper is similar to Lanrui's. Maybe you should let Nanny Gu teach you a lesson!"

As soon as Gu Mama was mentioned, Luluo immediately became timid. Her impatience just now seemed to have been poured with a bucket of cold water. She quickly stood up straight and responded seriously: "Miss, Mama Liao said that I have learned my rules very well, so I won't bother Mama Gu."

Phew—the master and servant smiled at each other, and the atmosphere instantly became harmonious.

"Did you find out anything?" Daiyu put away her smile and got back to the point.

Green ivy returned to her previous casualness, took two steps closer to Daiyu, and said mysteriously: "The people living in the two courtyards didn't hear anything, but they heard what Zhou Rui's wife said when she cursed. Her daughter stayed in her courtyard all day, and it seems that her son-in-law won't be back for the New Year."

Daiyu looked at the gloating expression on Luluo's face and reminded her: "I won't stop you from going over there to get information, but you have to control the expression on your face and don't bump into her knife!"

"I know! Girl, I know the people over there don't like you, and I won't cause you any trouble!" After making the promise, Luoluo went out happily.

However, such peaceful days did not last for two days.

That day, Daiyu was chatting and laughing with Yingchun when Lan Rui suddenly ran in and said, "Miss, something bad has happened!"

Daiyu glanced at her and frowned slightly: "You are so impetuous. If Aunt Gu sees you like this, you will have to live under her nose before Qingming Festival!"

Lan Rui said with a guilty look on her face: "Girl! Go out and take a look! Xue Pan is blocking the entrance to our courtyard!"

"What is he doing blocking the gate of our courtyard?" Daiyu was a little confused. Xue Pan had just been severely punished by Jia Zheng some time ago. How could he be so bold now as to block the gate of her courtyard and cause trouble?

Then she immediately asked, "Are we guarding the gate? Don't let them rush in!"

Lan Rui was relieved when she saw that Daiyu didn't look blaming. She quickly replied, "Keep it safe. Only Xue Pan was shouting there. The other servants didn't dare to help, but they didn't stop him from making trouble either."

Daiyu sneered and said sarcastically: "It seems that this group of servants can't be saved."

Yingchun saw Daiyu getting up and hurriedly tried to stop her, saying, "You can't go out! Even if he didn't hit you, it's disgusting enough to meet a man like that!"

Daiyu turned around and looked at Yingchun, and suggested, "Do you want to go and see the fun together?"

"At this time, you still have the mood to joke!" Yingchun saw that both the master and the servant were not in a hurry, and thought that the matter should not be serious, so she followed curiously.

The two men walked to the gate of the inner courtyard, only a dozen steps away from the outer gate, and could already clearly hear Xue Pan's shouting.

Daiyu looked at the maid beside her and asked, "Have you figured out what's going on?"

"To answer your question, young lady, from his tone, it seems that a maid in our courtyard beat him, and now he comes to our house to ask for someone to come!" The old woman answered respectfully.

At this time, a group of people came out from the servants' courtyard, led by Nanny Gu, followed by Qingwen and Honglian, who was crying bitterly.

When Honglian saw Daiyu standing there, her tears flowed even more violently. She ran to Daiyu, but worried that people outside might hear her, she had to lower her voice and said, "Miss, today Qingwen and I went to the back street to visit our mother, and when we came back, we ran into this lecherous ghost. We couldn't avoid him, so he came up and flirted with us. I couldn't help it, so I hit him."

After Honglian finished speaking, she looked at Daiyu nervously, fearing that Daiyu would blame her or send her out.

Daiyu didn't show any displeasure on her face. She smiled and asked, "Why didn't you come to see me first when you came back?"

Honglian was stunned. She obviously didn't expect Daiyu to ask this question. She stammered and replied, "I... I was thinking about this kind of dirty things. Telling them out would dirty the girl's ears."

Daiyu sighed and patted Honglian's hand: "You are mine, teasing you is like slapping me in the face. You should come back to me as soon as possible so that I can find a solution in time."

She took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the tears off Honglian's face, saying, "Madame Gu, thank you for going to the old lady. Linji, go find Jia Zheng and tell him that I can't live in Lixiangyuan anymore. I need to pack my things and go back to the Lin Mansion."

"Yes!" The two men took the order, went out from the corner gate together, and entered the Jia Mansion from the back door. They went around in a long circle before they found the target person.

When Lan Rui and the others heard Daiyu's instructions, they cheered softly and went back to the yard to pack their luggage.

Originally, Daiyu planned to return to the Lin Mansion on the second day of the New Year and stay there until the Lantern Festival before coming back. Now is a good opportunity to return to the Lin Mansion early.

She glanced at the gate and saw Xue Pan still shouting outside. She said to the maid next to her in dissatisfaction: "You just let him make such a fuss outside."

The old woman lowered her head, feeling somewhat helpless. The man outside was the nephew of the lady who headed the Jia family. Could she really not beat him up?

Then Daiyu said coldly, "You, go back and fetch a basin of hot water, and then find someone with good skills to climb up the wall. Remember, look carefully at the person's position before you throw the water, and be more accurate!"
