I'm Dying

Chapter 5

Lin Daiyu was stunned by the question. Then, she looked at Purple Cuckoo with amusement, "What are you talking about?

Who else can I be if I'm not your daughter? "

"I think you've changed. You've become …" Purple Cuckoo looked at Lin Daiyu without blinking. She paused and hesitated for a moment. Then, she emphasized, "You've become another person."

Lin Daiyu looked at her black and bright eyes. She couldn't tell whether she was touched or sad, "I understand."

Purple Cuckoo looked at her and hesitated.

Snow Goose listened and had her own thoughts, "You've grown up. You're no longer a child who can be bullied. Sister Purple Cuckoo, are you feeling lost?"

"Well used." Lin Daiyu praised.

The maids in the Jia House didn't study, but Purple Cuckoo and Snow Goose studied with Lin Daiyu.

Purple Cuckoo didn't argue. She sighed softly, "Maybe."

"The sisters and aunts in our mansion are easy to get along with."

Snow Goose was like a bird that was released from a cage. She was very excited. When she saw that Purple Cuckoo seemed to be a little absent-minded, she took the initiative to move to Purple Cuckoo's side, "There's just one thing. Most of the time, people in the mansion speak Gusu language. It's very worrying that you can't understand it.

How about this? Since there's still time, I'll teach you some Gusu language. "

Lin Daiyu's heart skipped a beat.

Snow Goose didn't wait for Purple Cuckoo to agree. She said a sentence in the Gusu language.

Wunong language.

It was very pleasant to hear.

But she really couldn't understand it.

Looking at her confused expression, Snow Goose was even more amused, "I'll say it again. Listen carefully."

She repeated it again. Purple Cuckoo was still confused.

"Learn from me."

Purple Cuckoo imitated Snow Goose in a low voice, one word at a time, and Snow Goose couldn't stop laughing.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but laugh.

"What do you mean?" Purple Cuckoo suddenly asked Lin Daiyu.

"Squirrel Mandarin Fish Maple Town Noodles, Honey-flavored Tofu Sound Eel." Lin Daiyu chuckled. "This mischievous guy only thinks about eating."

Snow Goose stuck out her tongue and asked, "Miss, don't you want to?"

"Do you think I'm you?" Lin Daiyu rolled her eyes and said to Purple Cuckoo, "Ignore her.

I'll teach you something practical. "

Lin Daiyu was a methodical teacher. She started by teaching Purple Cuckoo how to address her sister and daily words. But Purple Cuckoo was really bad at it. Snow Goose laughed until her stomach hurt.

They chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the dock.

It was Purple Cuckoo's first time on a boat.

When she stepped on it, the boat shook slightly. She felt that she couldn't stand steadily.

Lin Daiyu quickly supported her, "Be careful!

It's your first time on a boat. Be careful! "

Purple Cuckoo stood steadily and nodded, "I'll be careful."

However, there were some things that were useless.

Not long after the boat left, Purple Cuckoo began to feel dizzy and vomit.

Lin Daiyu hurriedly ordered the kitchen to brew medicine.

Then, she sent Purple Cuckoo back to her room to lie down.

But she still vomited until tears and snot ran down her face.

"How long will it take for the medicine to be ready?

Why is it so slow? "Lin Daiyu couldn't help but urge," Oh right!

There's ginger in the kitchen!

Let's use the ginger first! "

Snow Goose, who didn't get seasick, was ordered around.

"I should have asked the servant to prepare the medicine earlier." Lin Daiyu blamed herself. She didn't mind the filth and personally took a handkerchief to wipe Purple Cuckoo's face.

Purple Cuckoo dodged backward.

Lin Daiyu's hand froze in the air.

"How can I ask you to do this? I'll do it myself!"

Purple Cuckoo snatched the handkerchief from Lin Daiyu's hand and wiped her face carelessly, "It's filthy here. You should go back, Miss!"

Lin Daiyu frowned slightly.

Looking at Purple Cuckoo's bloodshot eyes and sunken eyes due to dehydration, she couldn't help but feel distressed.

She knew that Purple Cuckoo was seasick.

In her dream, Purple Cuckoo had also returned to Yangzhou with her.

At that time, she had just received the news that her father was seriously ill. She was so anxious that she wished she could grow a pair of wings and fly to Yangzhou. She neglected Purple Cuckoo.

Purple Cuckoo had been comforting her by her side.

Although she didn't really listen, Purple Cuckoo still patiently persuaded her.

If she hadn't vomited in front of her in the end, she would have thought that Purple Cuckoo was just not used to sailing and couldn't stand steadily. She didn't know that Purple Cuckoo was seasick.

Because she and Snow Goose weren't seasick and the ship wasn't prepared, she could only ask the people on the ship to use ginger.

But even so, Purple Cuckoo still thought that she missed her family and urged her to sail.

In her dream, Purple Cuckoo was very restrained from seasickness. In addition, Jia Lian had quickly arranged for them to dock and buy medicine. Therefore, although Lin Daiyu remembered that Purple Cuckoo was seasick and prepared in advance, she really didn't expect her to be so seasick.

Lin Daiyu secretly blamed herself for not being considerate. She should have ordered people to prepare the medicine when they boarded the ship.

Fortunately, with ginger, Purple Cuckoo didn't vomit that badly.

"Miss, you should go back quickly!

It's not clean here! "Purple Cuckoo urged again.

"Don't think nonsense. Do you think I dislike you?" Lin Daiyu didn't take it to heart, "The medicine will be ready in a while."

Purple Cuckoo looked at Lin Daiyu with a complicated expression.

When the medicine was brought, Purple Cuckoo insisted, "Miss, I want to drink the medicine when you go back!"

Lin Daiyu was checkmated and helplessly sighed, "Okay, okay, okay. I'll go back. You drink the medicine and have a good sleep."

"Take good care of your sister Purple Cuckoo." Lin Daiyu instructed Snow Goose.

Walking in the cabin, Lin Daiyu felt that something flashed in her mind and couldn't help but stop to catch it.

"Miss!" The servant girl found Lin Daiyu and quickly reported, "Second Master Lian is here!"

Lin Daiyu, who was interrupted, was startled, "Lian's Second Brother?"

Without thinking about the purpose of Jia Lian's visit, Lin Daiyu ordered while walking, "Purple Cuckoo is seasick and vomited out everything in her stomach. Go to the kitchen and ask them to cook a bowl of thick rice porridge.

Also, go to her place and take care of her. Carefully ask her what she wants. "

Lin Daiyu didn't like the four servant girls that Lady Jia gave her before leaving, but now she found that they were useful.

Seeing Jia Lian, Lin Daiyu naturally asked, "Lian's Second Brother, why are you here?"

"I heard that the kitchen is brewing seasickness medicine. I was worried about your health, so I came to take a look." Jia Lian was puzzled, "You …"

She didn't seem seasick!

The medicine was bought by Lin Daiyu at that time, so when he heard about the medicine, he subconsciously thought that Lin Daiyu was seasick.

"It's not me. It's Purple Cuckoo who is seasick." Lin Daiyu immediately understood Jia Lian's thoughts.

"So it's like that!" Jia Lian was relieved.

Jia Lian was older, so the two didn't chat much and left.

About two hours later.

Lin Daiyu was still worried, so she went to check on Purple Cuckoo.

Unexpectedly, Purple Cuckoo fell asleep.

Lin Daiyu tucked in the quilt that she had loosened, then tiptoed away.

She gently closed the door.

It wasn't suitable to sail at night, so Jia Lian found an inn near the harbor to rest.

"Purple Cuckoo's complexion is still not good. I'll have to trouble Lian's Second Brother to send someone to invite a good doctor to take a look." Lin Daiyu was considerate.

Jia Lian naturally agreed.

The inn's staff was very experienced in welcoming guests and sending off guests. They immediately led the Jia family's servant to invite a doctor. Feeling the pulse and brewing the medicine were done in one go.

In fact, Purple Cuckoo was much better after getting off the boat.

She also drank the medicine, so she was in good spirits.

Lin Daiyu had a headache. Purple Cuckoo was too seasick, and it would take at least a month to sail. She really couldn't bear to let Purple Cuckoo suffer like that.

However, the land journey was too slow, and she was really worried about her father. He was anxious to see her.

"Lian's Second Brother, let's split some people to go by land." Lin Daiyu found a way to satisfy both sides.

"Why?" Jia Lian was puzzled.

"Purple Cuckoo is too seasick, so she can't go by water.

We'll split some people to take her by land. "

Jia Lian was dumbfounded.

"I'll have to trouble Lian's Second Brother."

Jia Lian wanted to curse in his heart.

It was simply ridiculous to mobilize so many people for a servant girl.

"Didn't we already invite a doctor and take medicine?

Maybe she'll be better tomorrow! "Jia Lian didn't want to find trouble for himself.

Lin Daiyu could see that Jia Lian was unhappy. After thinking for a long time, she took a step back. "Then we'll eat for another day tomorrow. If it still doesn't work, we'll definitely have to split up.

Okay? "

She still had to ask, okay? This question was too obvious.

"Then we'll see tomorrow." Jia Lian said perfunctorily.

Lin Daiyu nodded and said to herself, "Okay, if it doesn't work, we'll split up tomorrow."

Jia Lian: "…"

He hoped that Purple Cuckoo would get better tomorrow.

Jia Lian prayed.

Then, he didn't know if it was because his prayers were effective, but she really did get better the next day.

"I felt much better after lying down yesterday afternoon. I don't feel so dizzy today. I'm probably used to it." Purple Cuckoo said.

"Yes, you'll naturally get better once you get used to it." Jia Lian agreed.

Lin Daiyu tried to increase the speed of the boat. Purple Cuckoo was also fine.

Things seemed to be as Jia Lian said. In the next few days, Purple Cuckoo got used to life on the boat. Like Snow Goose, Purple Cuckoo was able to move freely.

Because she was in a hurry, Lin Daiyu hired double the number of boatmen. Without any worries, she moved at full speed. Along the way, she took two shifts to rest. In less than a month, she arrived in Yangzhou.

"Miss, you're so fast."

The old housekeeper of the Lin Mansion received the news from the relay station and was already waiting at the dock. He greeted her in official language.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but laugh. She also spoke in official language, "I want to be faster."

If it weren't for the inconvenience of sailing at night, she would have traveled day and night.

"How's father's health?" Lin Daiyu hurriedly asked the question she was most concerned about.

The old housekeeper hesitated, "Master has lost a lot of weight."

"Is he sick?" Lin Daiyu asked anxiously.

The old housekeeper shook his head, "He's not sick."

Only then did Lin Daiyu's hanging heart settle back into her stomach.

It was fine as long as he wasn't sick. What was left was to be extremely careful.

The dock was not a place to talk. After changing carriages, they quickly arrived at the official residence.

Forty to fifty members of the Lin family, old and young, were waiting at the door. When they saw Lin Daiyu get down from the carriage, they hurriedly bowed, "Miss."

"Miss, you're finally back."

An old granny with white hair came forward. Her face was full of wrinkles from smiling, but her tears were falling down, "You must be tired from the journey.

Master is still in the yamen. There is plenty of hot water at home. Miss, please wash up and go away. "

A long string of soft words was spoken quickly. Purple Cuckoo only understood a few words like "Miss", "Master", "water", and other words. The rest was incomprehensible.

Purple Cuckoo: I might have gone to a fake school.

After studying for more than a month, Purple Cuckoo, who thought she should be able to cope with daily life, was shocked.

"There's no hurry." Lin Daiyu replied in official language.

After sending everyone back, Lin Daiyu said to the old housekeeper, "There's something I need Uncle Cheng to help me with."

The old housekeeper agreed, "Miss, please tell me."

"I want to hire a skilled doctor to stay in the residence and treat my father's health. The salary can be discussed, as long as he has the ability."

The old housekeeper replied, "Yes."

"I need it urgently. Please hurry."

Lin Daiyu's attitude could be said to be respectful, but the old housekeeper was respectful. He didn't neglect his master because of her young age.
