Chapter 461 Reluctance to leave
Xue Baochai brought Ying'er to apologize to Jia Huan, but this kid ignored it and ran away like he took Daiyu's silver.
They thought Jia Huan loved money and were afraid that Jia Cong would take it back, so they ran away. But who could guess that Jia Huan had regarded Daiyu as a god? This was the first time he had Daiyu's things, and Daiyu personally gave it to him. The kid was so happy that he was crazy, putting the two taels of silver in his arms and holding it firmly, for fear of losing it or being stolen.
At this time, he had no intention of playing with everyone. He held the silver and ran straight back to the small house where he lived. After locking the door, he took out the silver that Daiyu gave him, held it in his palm, and pressed it on his cheek... A heart pounded, and his mind was full of Daiyu's astonishing appearance, and he was fascinated for several days...
Baochai, Daiyu and Jia Cong could not know about it. When they saw Jia Huan running away, they couldn't help but smile, sat down and drank tea and ate fruits. When they started to laugh, Zijuan pulled Ying'er and talked.
The sun was very good this afternoon, and large swaths of sunlight shone in and fell on the three of them, which was extremely warm and comfortable.
The three of them laughed for a while, and Baochai couldn't help but sighed: "It's a rare good weather today, and there's a rare gap. I can joke with you two for an afternoon, and I don't know if it can be done in the future."
Daiyu smiled and said, "What's the problem? As long as my sister is willing, it's fine whenever she comes. I can sweep the snow and cook tea at any time, and wait for my sister to drive."
Baochai smiled bitterly after hearing this and said slowly, "The election will be coming after the Lantern Festival. I have to be busy preparing every day. Where can I have time to find my sister?"
Although Daiyu knew that Baochai came to Beijing this time for the general election, now that things are coming, Daiyu felt confused and couldn't help but ask: "Seriously, sister, are you going to the general election now? Why is it so fast?"
Jia Cong knew that Xue Baochai would definitely lose the draft, so he didn't realize what was going on. He immediately asked, "Sister, are you going to the general election now? Are you sure?"
Baochai was confused when she heard the question, shook her head and said, "I don't know, I don't know how..."
Daiyu hurriedly asked, "Sister, do you really want to go to the talent show? Can't you not go?"
Xue Baochai was even more at a loss when she heard this. She shook her head first, then nodded again, and didn't know how to answer for a while. Even she herself couldn't say whether she liked this path, but she wouldn't be able to do it without going.
Ying'er was originally lively and always talked a lot. At this moment, when she saw Baochai like this, she immediately sighed, her eyes turned red in an instant, and her face was full of sorrow. She seemed to have grown much older in an instant, as if she had changed from a girl to a resentful woman in the boudoir.
When Daiyu saw the two of them like this, she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but she opened her mouth and didn't know what to say. She could only lower her head, take a sip of tea, and stare at the tea leaves in the tea cup in a daze.
Jia Cong felt sad when he saw that the three of them were silent and didn't know which one to persuade him. He had to look at Baochai and Daiyu for a while, and smiled forcibly, and remained silent.
The few people sat down for a while, and they were all unable to describe the depression in their hearts. Baochai stood up and smiled and said, "It's all my fault. This New Year has made you unhappy. It's time for me to leave."
Lin Daiyu stood up and smiled after hearing this, "There is no worries? She just thinks about her sister's appearance and talent. This time, she must have won the chance to win the imperial examination in the Toad Palace. Although this is good, it will be difficult to see her sister in the future. Before this, she will be reluctant to leave..."
When Xue Baochai heard Daiyu say this, she forced herself to smile and said, "Then I will lend a good word to my sister. If I can really be selected, we will meet in the future. Sister, don't the Empress of the Jia family come back to visit the wedding in a few days? Maybe I can come back to see you in the future..."
Daiyu couldn't help but smile bitterly: Jia Yuanchun had been in the deep palace for more than ten years before he could go back to his parents' home. After more than ten years in the palace, the world has changed a lot, and even if he sees each other again, he will no longer be as young as he is.
Although she had never entered the palace, and she did not recognize the woman in the palace, Daiyu was smart and had read many deep-seated resentful words such as "Your kindness passes by like water in a hurry, and the sun and the moon are deep as soon as you enter the palace gate". I even thought about how painful it was.
Looking at Baochai's new clothes in front of her, she looks fresh and tender, which makes her look youthful, bright and charming. Such a beauty has to go to the palace to survive the years, which makes people feel sad when she thinks about it.
Daiyu felt sad for a moment, and smiled at Baochai forcibly, and then lowered her head and said nothing.
Jia Cong was naturally speechless.
Baochai didn't understand anything. She knew that the two of them were worried about her and regretted her. She stared at Daiyu and Jia Cong for a few more times, then nodded and said, "You guys sit down first, I'm going back, it's time to go back, it's going to be dark."
Jia Cong and Daiyu were both shocked when they heard this, and quickly turned their heads to look out the window: A huge red sun in the west was about to sink, dyeing the sky red, and snow covered the ground, roofs, and walls everywhere. The red and white contrasted with each other, making the world seem vast and vast.
But although the world is big, there is no place to be happy for Baochai to survive, forcing her to fall into the deep palace and live in loneliness.
Daiyu felt even more sad when she thought of this, and couldn't help but look up at Baochai, her tears had already become hazy.
Seeing Daiyu like this, Baochai couldn't help but feel aroused in her heart. She reached out and held Daiyu to comfort her and said, "Silly girl, what's so sad about this? What if one day I can fly up to the branch and turn into a phoenix?"
Daiyu knew that she was extremely angry, and she might be willing to go to the palace to fight hard. She hurriedly wiped her tears and smiled, "That's of course very good. But you don't forget me on that day."
Baochai also smiled and said, "We are like sisters, so I will naturally not forget my sister."
The two of them talked and walked out, and Jia Cong hurriedly got up and saw this. They sent Baochai out, waiting to see her holding Ying'er and never see her again, then turned around and came back.
As soon as Daiyu entered the room, she sighed: "Although I don't have a good relationship with Sister Bao, I feel really sad when I see such a good woman who insists on entering the palace to suffer."
She lamented again and saw Jia Cong's inattentive look on his face, and immediately couldn't help but say angrily: "Why are you not uncomfortable at all? Are you men's hearts so hard?"
When Jia Cong heard her blame him, he hurriedly said, "Good sister, I'm not so hard-hearted. It's just that I know that Sister Bao has no chance to be with Shengong, so I will naturally not worry about this for nothing."
Daiyu suddenly heard Jia Cong say this, and was shocked. She hurriedly grabbed Jia Cong and asked, "What do you mean by saying this? Do you know that Sister Bao will lose this election? How can this be done? With Sister Bao's talent, appearance and morality, there are very few people in the world who can compare with her. How could she lose?"
Seeing Daiyu anxious, Jia Cong hurriedly said, "Good sister, why are you in a hurry? Listen to me and tell you carefully..."
