Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 108: Talking about the chapter without warning

Sitting at the top left was Jia She, who was in a good mood at the moment and was talking nonstop to Grandmother Jia, but Grandmother Jia ignored him. Next to him was Jia Zheng, who had a serious face and frowned, and next to him was Xue Pan.

Rongxi Hall was not often used, and even though there were several charcoal basins burning inside, it was still difficult to resist the biting cold. Xue Pan could not help but wrap his cloak tighter and shivered constantly.

On the right sat Madam Xing, Madam Wang, and Aunt Xue. Madam Xing was whispering something to Madam Wang, while Aunt Xue looked at her son with a distressed look on her face.

At this moment, Jia Mu noticed that Yuanyang came in with six people wearing veils on their heads, and asked with a hint of doubt in her tone: "Yu'er?"

Daiyu stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Grandmother. It is my fault for causing you to worry."

Grandmother Jia waved to Daiyu and asked gently, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you dressed like this in your own home?"

Daiyu knew that Grandmother Jia could not see the expression on her face clearly through the veil, so she said bluntly: "My granddaughter came here to say goodbye to my grandmother."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to perform a great salute, but her grandmother held her hand and she could not kneel down no matter what.

At this time, Aunt Xue also stood up and came over to comfort her, "Child, you are just too worried. In fact, this matter is not a big deal..."

Daiyu was immediately displeased when she heard this: "So in the eyes of Mrs. Xue, a girl's innocence is so insignificant!"

She looked sharply at the screen behind the ladies, where a shadowy figure could be seen swaying. She said, "Since Madam Xue thinks this is not a big deal, let's let everyone in the capital come and comment on this 'small matter'!"

Aunt Xue explained hesitantly, "Not really, not really. They say that family disgrace should not be made public..."

Daiyu sneered and asked, "Mrs. Xue said it lightly, but I don't quite understand, is this family the Xue family, the Lin family, or the Jia family?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Wang coughed lightly and was about to speak. Gu Madam stepped forward decisively and said, "Yu'er, even if Madam Xue doesn't have an imperial decree, she is still your elder."

Nanny Gu bowed deeply to everyone and continued, "Yu'er is young and ignorant, and her words are rude. It's my fault for not disciplining her properly. I apologize to you all on behalf of Yu'er. Please don't take it personally."

Except for Lady Jia who calmly accepted Nanny Gu's gift, the other female relatives present turned their bodies slightly aside and expressed that they did not dare to accept such a great gift.

Aunt Xue saw Gu Mama apologize, and the ugly expression on her face eased a lot. She followed Gu Mama's words and said, "It was originally a small matter, no big deal. Miss Lin was just a little angry, that's why it became like this."

Daiyu was about to retort when she saw Gu Ma's veil swaying slightly. She had no choice but to swallow her words, feeling a little aggrieved.

The ancient times were really annoying. There were so many relatives involved. Even though she was clearly wronged, she couldn't fight back just because the other party was older than her.

Daiyu's mouth was puffed up like a pufferfish, and her face was full of unhappiness. Fortunately, this expression was hidden behind the curtain, so others could not see it clearly.

Xue Pan also started to feel proud after hearing her words, and completely forgot that Jia Zheng was sitting next to him and was angry. He said proudly: "That's right, it's her blessing that I like her! She actually dared to hit me! Mother, I must tie that stinky girl back today!"

Aunt Xue hastily winked at Xue Pan, signaling him to be more restrained. Unfortunately, Xue Pan's eyes were roaming back and forth between the five figures in front of him, trying to find the little hot pepper who slapped his face so hard that it was swollen.

Aunt Xue's eyes were like those of a blind man.

Except for Jia She, everyone present was disgusted by Xue Pan's unscrupulous look.

Jia She showed a meaningful smile on his face and said to Aunt Xue: "My nephew is not young anymore. It's time to consider putting a few close friends in his room..."

Grandmother Jia's face darkened and she scolded, "Boss, this is not your courtyard. You should know what to say and what not to say. Do you need me to give you some advice?"

After Jia's mother finished speaking, she glanced at Gu Ma. Although she couldn't see Gu Ma's expression clearly, she could feel that her aura was a little cold.

Jia She stopped talking in dismay, but Xue Pan smiled as if he had received an imperial decree, "I just like the one I met today... no, those two maids. For the sake of their reputation, cousin Lin, please give them to me!"

Xue Pan had a greasy and vulgar smile on his face, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Daiyu was posting comments in her mind, but unfortunately Nanny Gu didn't let her speak. She had to keep it to herself and almost got hurt!

Grandmother Jia also saw Xue Pan's expression and felt that it was really a bit hurtful to the eyes. For Daiyu's reputation, Grandmother Jia still said, "Yu'er, you go behind the screen first and be with Baochai!"

Daiyu and the others hid behind the screen, thus blocking out the sight that had almost become material, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at Honglian and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"

If it were any other time, if Daiyu met someone like Xue Pan, she would probably have been beaten up, not just a slap in the face.

Xue Baochai looked at Daiyu, her face full of helplessness and tolerance, as if she was watching a little sister making trouble: "Sister Lin, you shouldn't make things like this."

Daiyu sneered and responded in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft: "The Xue family may have such a rule that a brother can covet his sister's maid. But in our Lin family, there is no such rule."

Although the sound was not loud, everyone present could hear it clearly and it hurt many people's hearts.

Nanny Gu coughed lightly, signaling Daiyu to keep her voice down, and then she said, "Any family with a sense of etiquette and shame knows that it is a scandal for a brother to covet a sister's maid. Moreover, our Lin family is a five-generation noble family in the south of the Yangtze River."

This clearly points out that the Xue family has a bad upbringing.

Daddy Xue didn't understand what Nanny Gu meant at all, and although Aunt Xue understood it, her face turned red and she didn't know how to respond.

And Xue Baochai was standing behind the screen. Like Daiyu, she was one of those people who could not speak directly.

She suddenly remembered something and said to Daiyu, "Brother is just attracted to your maid. He is also a person who speaks without thinking, and says whatever is on his mind. I hope you can help brother."

Daiyu sneered: "I hope that Sister Xue will be able to remain calm like she is now when she meets someone who speaks without warning in the future, and then wait happily for that person to take her away in a sedan chair."

"You!" Xue Baochai felt her blood boiling and was choked by Daiyu, unable to speak.
