Therefore, Baoyu held the box in his arms and did not show it to anyone.

"With the ginseng given by my sister,

I don't feel any pain in my body. "Baoyu smiled brightly. His facial features were good, and when he smiled like this,

It naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Xue Baochai had been in Rongguo Province for a long time. Baoyu and Daiyu could not talk to each other before, so he would choose some time to visit Baochai.

Now that he heard Baoyu speak in such a close tone with everyone, Baochai could not help but take a second look.

Daiyu pursed his lips and really could not answer.

Although she and Baoyu were cousins,

Their relationship was not close enough. In that case,

Wasn't that a little frivolous? Daiyu's gaze quietly swept around, but he saw that no one around him looked surprised.

It seemed to be normal.

Daiyu was shocked.

He calmly held Brother Parrot's arm, and prepared to find an excuse to leave first.

The girls in her maternal family were all good, but this Baoyu.

He always made people feel scared for no reason.

At this moment, Baoyu's gaze fell on Ying Ge again.

He said, "Ying Ge used to follow the Old Ancestor, and now he is following Sister Lin. Did you take good care of your sister?"

Ying Ge's expression was strange for a moment.

Baoyu's question was really inappropriate.

But Ying Ge still smiled.

He replied appropriately.

Baoyu's personality was used to jumping.

At this moment, he said, "Ying Ge is not a good name.

Since you are already by your sister's side, you should change your name. "

As Baoyu spoke, he looked at Daiyu and said, "Sister Xi Ren used to serve the Old Ancestor. At that time, she was called Pearl. Later, the Old Ancestor changed her name and gave her to me."

Baoyu seemed to like it very much. He was similar to Daiyu in such small details. As he spoke, he smiled even more brilliantly.

Daiyu only blinked slowly and did not reply.

Ying Ge was given to her by the Old Ancestor. She had just arrived at the Jia Mansion, so how could she change Ying Ge's name on her own accord? Not to mention other things, it would be bad if people misunderstood that she was dissatisfied with the Old Ancestor.

But Baoyu's interest was piqued and he said, "Ying Ge is too dull and doesn't have much spiritual energy.

How about we change it to Zi Juan from now on? "

Baoyu had always been doted on by the Old Ancestor. Whatever he said, as long as it did not involve a big matter, he could make the decision.

Ying Ge saw through it clearly, so he immediately smiled and said, "Then I have to thank Second Master for giving me a name."

Ying Ge's words were too formal. When Baoyu heard it, he felt that it was boring and did not have the interest to continue speaking.

Daiyu then changed the way he addressed her and said, "Zi Juan, my body is a little cold."

Zi Juan met Daiyu's eyes. At first, she was stunned, but then she understood Daiyu's meaning. She frowned and said, "You were fine before we left. I'm afraid you don't want to be exposed to the wind anymore."

The others, including Baoyu, became anxious and hurriedly said, "Why don't you go back and rest first?"

"Yes, yes, we can still meet in the future."

Baochai also walked forward and said, "That's right. Younger Sister, don't catch a cold. It will ruin the previous doctor's treatment."

Daiyu looked up at her and felt that Baochai could tell that she was faking her illness.

However, Baochai's expression did not change. She could only nod and let Zi Juan support her. Then, she led Xue Yan back to the Jade Screen Cupboard.

Daiyu and the others' figures gradually disappeared into the distance.

Baoyu sighed and groaned behind them. Her mood had become even worse.

Tanchun teased her for a while and felt that it was too boring. She then brought her two sisters back to Xue Baochai's place to talk.

When they returned to the Jade Screen Cupboard.

Daiyu could not help but ask, "Are those things very rare?"

"Young Miss has not seen them in Gusu before. These things are popular in the capital.

It's just that most people have heard of them, but very few have seen them.

They were all brought back from overseas. It's said that there are very few of them in the palace. "After Zi Juan finished speaking, he suddenly remembered to ask," Young Miss, did you send them out today? "

"They were all just sent here," Daiyu frowned slightly, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have sent such rare things."

Originally, when she saw so many things sent over, she thought that they would not be expensive.

When she came to Rongguo Province alone, she did not bring many things with her. Even if she wanted to give some things away, she did not have much to take out. That was why she randomly picked a box of things from the things sent by her older brother.

Daiyu did not feel uneasy in her heart.

However, in terms of relationship, she should be closer to that older brother. Now that she looked at it again, she felt that it was a pity to give it to Baoyu.

Zi Juan said, "But Young Miss's family sent it." Zi Juan misunderstood Daiyu's meaning and said, "Young Miss need not worry. No one will gossip because of the weight of the gifts."

Only then did Daiyu realize what she meant.

It turned out that if the gifts were too heavy, it would make her closer to Baoyu.

Daiyu frowned again.

She only hoped that Baoyu would not misunderstand.

"Older Sister Zi Juan," someone called from outside the room.

Zi Juan acknowledged and excused herself from Daiyu. She then went outside the room to speak.

Xue Yan waited by the table and stammered, "Young Miss, don't … don't you want to reply to a message from that side?"

"That side," Daiyu paused, "You mean the people who sent the gifts over? That side?"

Xue Yan nodded.

This was what her older brother had told her before. He had told her to remember to remind Young Miss to keep in touch with that side.

Although it was against the rules, Xue Yan felt half relieved when she saw the gifts.

It was so well-ironed that no one could find anything wrong with it. Furthermore, it was done openly. If this was done right under Second Master's nose, they would not put Young Miss in danger.

Daiyu pursed her lips. She seemed to be a little tempted.

"Xue Yan, grind the ink for me."

"Okay."

"Young Miss, the Old Ancestor has sent someone to deliver the medicine." Zi Juan's voice suddenly came closer.

Daiyu was originally deliberating whether or not her words had crossed the line, but now she did not care. She hurriedly closed the letter, stuffed it into a prepared envelope, and handed it to Xue Yan.

Xue Yan immediately tucked it into her bosom.

Coincidentally, Zi Juan had already stepped through the door at this moment.

There were a few young maidservants following behind her.

One of the maidservants came forward with the medicine. Another maidservant bowed and said, "Miss Lin."

"This is from Second Master's courtyard." Zi Juan pointed at the maidservant.

The maidservant smiled and said, "They're here to ask Miss Lin for a prescription."

"Second Master's orders are that one of Miss Lin's uncles said that the prescription that Miss Lin usually uses has to be changed every month. Otherwise, it will lose its effectiveness.

In the past, it was always changed in Gusu. Now that it's in the capital, we have to ask a new doctor to change the medicine. We have to ask Miss Lin to take out the prescription from before so that the doctor can take a look. "

Daiyu was very intelligent and immediately understood the intention behind this.

Her prescription was originally given to her by that older brother of hers. Why would she need to ask for the prescription from before?

This was probably just to make it easier for her to send out the letter.

By sandwiching the prescription with the letter, Second Uncle would be able to see it clearly. There wouldn't be a single mistake that would allow others to pick and choose.

Daiyu brushed the loose strands of hair behind her ears and said softly, "Let me look for it."

"Xue Yan, go get that box and take a look. The prescription is still inside."

Xue Yan also understood and hurriedly nodded. He turned around and went to get the box.

In the other room.

Jia Zheng once again arranged to meet He Shen at the Daoist temple.

Jia Zheng sighed and said, "That doctor really doesn't have much skill. He actually couldn't treat Brother Zhizhai's illness."

"It's no problem. Just now, Daoist priest said that he would go get the medicine for me to try.

Perhaps this time it will be successful. "He Shen's fingers rubbed the teacup next to him as he said this with a slight smile.

He really had the appearance of a proper gentleman.

Jia Zheng continued, "I've already sent someone to get my niece's prescription. I'll have someone send it to you tomorrow."

"Okay." He Shen looked like he didn't care at all.

Jia Zheng didn't care much about his niece. After all, everything was taken care of by Lady Wang.

Therefore, his mind wasn't on this either. After a few words, the two of them changed the topic and started talking about the Four Books and Five Classics.

He wasn't at all curious about whether He Shen's care for Daiyu had gone too far.

The next day.

He Shen sat in the study room and waved his brush to write the last sentence.

The entire booklet had been completed.

He put down the brush and couldn't help but look out the window.

A head wearing a hat popped up outside the window.

"Brother, are you looking at me?"

He Shen said unhappily, "What are you doing here?"

He Lin didn't answer. Instead, he craned his neck and asked, "Brother, you keep looking out the window. What are you waiting for?"

He Shen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Who told you what I'm waiting for?"

He Lin smiled, the flesh on his cheeks puffing up, "I can tell.

Brother, you're not at ease even when you're writing a booklet. Your strokes are faster than usual. You even look out the window from time to time. If you're not waiting for something, then you're looking at me. "

He Shen knocked on his head and was about to scold him when Liu Quan came in.

He Shen suddenly couldn't sit still, but he still firmly controlled himself in his seat.

He Shen asked, "You're here?"

Liu Quan laughed, "You're here."

"Give him some money before you let him go."

"Yes."

Liu Quan walked quickly into the study room and put down something. Then he turned around and went out to give orders.

He Shen's eyes focused on that thing. His heart was strangely unsettled.

It was as if he had been looking forward to more than one day.

It was as if he had been looking forward to it for many years.

He Shen found it funny.

He just wanted to know about Daiyu's recent situation. Why did it seem like a young boy who had received a love letter?

He Shen shook his head and cleared his mind. Then he picked up the letter on the table. He tore off the prescription wrapped on the outside, opened the envelope, and finally took out the letter.

Unfolded it.

Smoothed it out.

Read it carefully.

Ying Ge shook his head, "Second Master brought it from the courtyard."
