No!

Lin Daiyu jumped up from the bed. Her eyes widened in horror. She gasped for breath, and her forehead was covered with sweat.

"Miss, you're up?"

Purple Cuckoo, who was sleeping outside, heard the sound. She looked at the sky, which was still dark, and asked with uncertainty.

Lin Daiyu heard the sound and turned her head stiffly. Her eyes were blank and unfocused. It was obvious that she hadn't come back to her senses.

Purple Cuckoo tiptoed in. She couldn't see the shadows on the bed through the flowery curtain. She could only approach carefully.

She lifted the curtain slightly and took a look. She quickly lit a candle and closed the curtain. Only then did she see Lin Daiyu's pale face. She was still frightened.

"Miss, did you have a nightmare?"

Purple Cuckoo took a thick coat and put it on Lin Daiyu. She wiped the sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief. "Don't be afraid. Dreams are always the opposite of reality."

Lin Daiyu stared at Purple Cuckoo's young face in a daze.

Dream?!

Was it a dream?

But the unforgettable, bone-deep despair was still there. It hurt so much that her soul trembled!

Purple Cuckoo didn't know what was going on. She smiled gently at Lin Daiyu, got up, and poured a glass of water for her.

The temperature of the glass spread from her fingers. Lin Daiyu's body slowly thawed.

She took a sip with both hands. The warmth spread from her throat to her heart.

"It's still early. Miss, you should sleep a little longer."

Purple Cuckoo took the glass.

Lin Daiyu looked at her small hand, which was a size smaller, in a daze.

Purple Cuckoo carefully helped her change out of her sweaty clothes and tucked her in.

She looked around.

This was …

Rong Qing Hall.

"Go to sleep." Purple Cuckoo gently persuaded.

Lin Daiyu pondered for a moment before slowly closing her eyes.

Purple Cuckoo extinguished the candle and slowly walked away.

The next day.

Qing Wen came to visit.

"Why are you here?" Purple Cuckoo asked with a smile.

"Isn't this our Second Master Bao? He just got the Nineteen Stacks and is worried about Miss Lin, so he sent me to invite you over," Qing Wen said straightforwardly.

Purple Cuckoo pondered for a moment. "I'll go and tell the girl."

These days, Lin Daiyu was always tired and didn't talk much.

Purple Cuckoo was very worried.

He thought that this' Nine Consecutive Puzzles' was very interesting, and with the Second Master Bao by his side, it was very good.

As soon as Lin Daiyu heard the words "Second Master Bao", she was about to send them back, but when she heard the words "Nine Rings", she fell silent.

After thinking for a long time.

Lin Daiyu held Purple Cuckoo's arm and got up. "Let's go and take a look."

The group of people clustered around Jia Baoyu.

Lin Daiyu casually played with the Nine Consecutive Puzzles in her hand. When Jia Baoyu talked to her, she was also absent-minded.

"Sister Lin.

Sister Lin. "

Jia Baoyu gently pushed Lin Daiyu's arm and complained, "What are you thinking about? You're so absorbed that you can't even hear me."

Lin Daiyu looked up and saw the childish, familiar face full of concern. She couldn't help but be stunned.

Very little.

Lin Daiyu lowered her eyes and calmly moved her hand away. "What can I be thinking about?

How can I solve this! "

"It's rare that this little thing can actually baffle you." Jia Baoyu didn't doubt it at all and laughed heartlessly.

Lin Daiyu didn't say anything.

Jia Baoyu supported his head with one hand and felt a little bored.

After a while.

The curtain was suddenly lifted.

"Miss Lin, the flowers and girls that the concubine asked me to send are here."

The scene in the dream replayed in front of her eyes. Lin Daiyu's ears buzzed.

Jia Baoyu heard it and was in high spirits. "What flowers?

Give them to me. "

Lin Daiyu turned her head stiffly and looked at Jia Baoyu taking the box.

The same.

Exactly the same.

In the big box, there were only two fake flowers piled with gauze. The style and color were exactly the same as in the dream.

"Is it just for me, or all the other girls have it?" Lin Daiyu didn't have time to think about the thoughts in the dream at this time. She stiffly read out the words in the dream.

"Everyone has it. These two flowers are for the girls."

The same words, the same expression. Lin Daiyu's blood ran cold.

It wasn't a dream!

It wasn't a dream!

It really wasn't a dream!

How could a dream be so real?

It was so real that it seemed like she had lived for several years!

"I knew it. The others didn't pick and didn't give me the leftovers." Lin Daiyu added this sentence like a clockwork machine.

Zhou Rui's family lowered their eyes and didn't say a word.

Jia Baoyu: "Sister Zhou, what are you doing over there?"

"Madam is over there. She went to reply, so the concubine asked me to bring it."

"Bao Jie, what are you doing at home?

Why have you been … "

The two of them were looking at each other and talking when they saw Lin Daiyu suddenly get up and walk out.

"Sister Lin, what are you doing?" Jia Baoyu hurriedly asked.

"I have to go back."

Lin Daiyu was in a trance. Her body seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, but her feet felt soft as if they were stepping on cotton. "I have to go back."

She was sure!

She couldn't be more sure!

Father …

Father would be seriously ill in May!

After that, it would be difficult for him to recover.

After suffering for two months, Father would …

Die!

On a warm but cold spring day, the wind was bone-chilling.

Lin Daiyu hugged her arms tightly.

Jia Baoyu looked at Lin Daiyu's back and felt anxious. He looked at Zhou Rui's stiff face and hesitated.

With this delay, Lin Daiyu had already walked away with great difficulty.

Go back!

Go back immediately!

There were still three months!

There was still time!

There was still time!

Lin Daiyu kept comforting herself.

Purple Cuckoo supported her. She was burning with anxiety but didn't know how to persuade her.

"Snow Goose."

Lin Daiyu suddenly turned around.

"Go back and pack up. Let's go home."

Snow Goose was stunned.

Purple Cuckoo was even more shocked. "Miss!

Miss, you can't do that! "

Lin Daiyu looked at Purple Cuckoo. At this time, Purple Cuckoo was only fourteen years old. She hadn't wasted her youth because of her. It was the best age.

Lin Daiyu tenderly stroked Purple Cuckoo's tender cheeks. Her eyes were red.

In that prophetic dream, Purple Cuckoo was not only careful, considerate, and considerate to protect her. Later on, she was happy and sad for her. She racked her brains to plan for her.

"Purple Cuckoo, I have to go." Lin Daiyu's tears wet her clothes. "Be good.

In the future, you will marry and have children. "

Because of "Baoyu's love test", Purple Cuckoo fiercely made some people look down on her. In the end, she implicated her family and became a lonely ghost.

Thinking about what would happen to Purple Cuckoo after she closed her eyes, she felt very distressed.

So, this time, while there was still time …

Go home!

"Miss, don't scare me …" Purple Cuckoo was so scared that she cried.

Lin Daiyu turned her head and wiped her tears. She walked like the wind towards the main house of Rongqing Hall.

"Miss, don't be angry. It's not worth it …" Purple Cuckoo followed Lin Daiyu step by step and tried to persuade her.

Lin Daiyu turned a deaf ear.

When she saw Lady Jia, she knelt down and kowtowed three times.

Lady Jia was shocked and stood up shakily. "What's wrong with Yu 'er?"

Quickly glancing at Purple Cuckoo's red eyes, Lady Jia's face turned pale. "Who wronged her?"

Lin Daiyu shook her head and cried, "No one.

Yu 'er was brought to the Jia Mansion by her maternal grandmother's kindness. Everything about her was meticulous and appropriate.

It's just that Yu 'er has been away from home for a long time and misses her father very much.

I beg grandmother to send Yu 'er back to Yangzhou. "

Lady Jia heard this and her face turned even paler. She opened her mouth but didn't make a sound. So, she went forward to help Lin Daiyu. "Get up first. Get up first."

Lin Daiyu's attitude was very resolute. "If grandmother doesn't agree, Yu 'er will kneel and not get up."

Lady Jia was stunned and even had a headache for a moment.

After a while.

Granny Jia sighed. "As you wish, as you wish. Grandmother will do as you wish."

Lin Daiyu didn't miss the perfunctory tone in her words. But since she said it, she couldn't take it back.

"Thank you, grandmother."

Purple Cuckoo helped Lin Daiyu to sit next to Lady Jia.

Lady Jia held Lin Daiyu's little hand and coaxed her with a face full of affection. "Don't cry. Don't cry. Look at your little face. It's all messy.

Come with your Sister Yuanyang to freshen up in the green muslin cabinet. Your things are still there. "

"I …"

Lin Daiyu lowered her eyes.

She avoided Lady Jia's gaze.

She didn't want to look.

These days, she doubted the reality of her "dream". In addition to the huge impact on her worldview, Lady Jia was the key.

She didn't care about other people. Even if Jia Baoyu became stupid after losing the jade and married another woman, she could accept it.

But …

She really couldn't believe that her grandmother, who loved her the most, would treat her like that in the end.

She was the person she trusted the most in the world.

She was her only family member.

She loved her so much.

That kind of love wasn't fake.

She had a heart. She knew it wasn't fake.

So, she couldn't believe it. She couldn't convince herself …

She couldn't figure out why her grandmother, who loved her so much, would treat her like that!

Her head hurt from thinking about it …

She still couldn't figure it out.

But!

Now!

At this moment!

At this moment that proved the reality of her dream!

Lin Daiyu couldn't look directly at that kind face.

"When do I leave?"

Lady Jia chuckled. "How can a little girl like you go on the road alone?

You need your Lian's Second Brother to send you.

Grandmother will take care of this for you. "

"Thank you, grandmother."

Lin Daiyu left with Yuanyang.

As soon as they left, Lady Jia's eyes immediately looked deeply at Purple Cuckoo.

Purple Cuckoo quivered and shuddered.

She knelt down with a thump. Her mind spun quickly and she had a direction in a flash.

First, she explained in detail how Jia Baoyu asked Qing Wen to invite Lin Daiyu, how the two of them seriously solved the Nine Linked Rings for a long time, and how Jia Baoyu teased Lin Daiyu.

Then, she explained in detail how Zhou Rui's family suddenly appeared with a ten inch square box. Lin Daiyu casually looked at the box in Jia Baoyu's hand and asked if it was for her alone or for all the girls.

Then, she repeated Zhou Rui's family's answer word for word.

Finally, she described how Zhou Rui's family turned a deaf ear to Miss Lin's words in a fit of anger.

Different people had different opinions about the same thing, so the impression would be very different.

Purple Cuckoo, who was well versed in the art of speaking, deeply understood this principle, so it was best for her to say the words.

She wholeheartedly cared about Lin Daiyu, so her words were unconsciously protecting her and not letting her suffer.

As for whether this would offend anyone else, she didn't think about it.

Because before she thought about this problem, she had already subconsciously protected Lin Daiyu.

Lady Jia's eyes darkened and keenly grasped the words "I knew it". She slightly leaned forward and asked in a deep voice, "In the past, did the servants in the fu neglect Yu 'er?"

Purple Cuckoo hesitated.

Lady Jia looked at her and already had an idea, "Just say it."

"The servants in the fu often say that Miss Lin is not as good as Treasure Girl." Purple Cuckoo looked up.
