Chapter 135 Dream of the Red Chamber 1 8
Naturally, Grandmother Jia could not resist Yuanchun, but she would not respond either and could only pretend not to see it.
Baoyu and Baochai sat next to each other. Baoyu was stunned by her face as red as a silver basin, eyes like watery apricots, lips that were red without any makeup, and eyebrows that were green without any drawing.
Daiyu had just come to pay her respects to Lady Jia, and she saw Baoyu staring at Baochai with his eyes almost glued to her. Baochai's face flushed, and when she was about to leave, she saw Daiyu's gaze.
Daiyu couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. Baochai's face turned even redder, but she pretended to be calm and said.
"Where did Sister Lin come from? It's windy outside, come in quickly."
This time, Daiyu didn't say anything to Daiyan, but just snuggled up to Lady Jia and acted coquettishly.
At this time, Feng Ji came in, and Baoyu woke up in shock and looked away. Baochai finally calmed down.
Ever since the Dicui Pavilion, Baochai and Daiyu have become estranged. Although they still maintain their relationship, everyone can feel the estrangement between them.
Grandmother Jia decided to hold a religious ceremony at Qingxu Temple on the first day of the new year, and Baochai, Baoyu, Daiyu and others were all invited to go and watch the show.
Daiyu felt much healthier now. She had a great time that day and did not get sick. She also did not get angry with Baoyu about the golden unicorn. Naturally, the next day, there was no longer any of them sitting face to face, crying in silence.
But Baoyu felt more and more uneasy, and he fell ill due to depression. At night, Baoyu talked in his sleep. After waking up, he ran to Xiaoxiang Pavilion with a silly smile on his face.
As soon as Daiyu got up, she heard a commotion at the door.
"Xueyan, what happened?"
Before Nan Xi could say anything, the little maid at the door came in to report.
"Girl, Master Bao is determined to come in, and the mothers can't stop him."
Daiyu was shocked. Why did Baoyu barge into the inner room? He was always polite, so why did he go crazy this time?
Baoyu had already rushed in. He grabbed Daiyu's handkerchief with a look of joy on his face.
"Sister Lin, I know you have me in your heart too."
Daiyu's face suddenly changed. How could she say that?
Nan Xi had already come over and pushed Baoyu out of the door.
"Master Bao, please be more serious. Our girl still needs to wash up. Please wait outside."
Baoyu was the most sympathetic and considerate person. He had just been able to push the old women away rudely, but now that he was facing Nanxi and Zijuan, he could not lose his temper. He just sat down obediently in the corridor, waiting for Daiyu.
Daiyu sat in front of the mirror and asked doubtfully.
"What happened to Baoyu?"
Zijuan said worriedly, "Isn't he possessed by the devil again? What should we do then?"
Daiyu quickly asked the little maid to ask Xiren to bring Baoyu back.
Nan Xi looked at Baoyu, who was unkempt outside. Did he come here as soon as he got up? From his tone, it seemed that he was sure that Daiyu had feelings for him.
But ever since Nan Xi came, Daiyu has kept her distance from Baoyu, and that vague love between them had been nipped in the bud long ago. What happened?
When Baoyu saw Daiyu coming out, he came closer again.
"My dear sister, I remember now. You wrote poems for me, sewed clothes for me, and gave me a fan pendant... You always had me in your heart!"
Daiyu was confused. How could she not know when she had done all these for Baoyu? Seeing Baoyu's disheveled clothes, Daiyu suddenly realized.
"Baoyu, are you dreaming?"
It’s no wonder Daiyu thinks this way, as she has been having some strange dreams recently.
Baoyu was speechless and didn't know how to explain for a moment. Although he was indeed dreaming, he knew that it was all real.
"Sister, I will not let you down. In my heart, besides the old lady, the master, and the mistress, the fourth one is my sister."
Daiyu felt amused. Now that she had a servant to run errands for her, she could hear about what was happening outside. She had heard a lot of the ridiculous things Baoyu said and did when he usually drank and watched plays, and now he was trying to make her feel funny.
Daiyu didn't know what was wrong with her and suddenly said.
"You have a sister in your heart, but you just forget about her when you see her elder sister."
As soon as these words came out, Daiyu was stunned, and she even felt jealous.
Baoyu was happy. He was not afraid that Lin Daiyu would be jealous, but he was afraid that Lin Daiyu would ignore him.
"I won't do that again."
Daiyu shook her head. Baoyu was different from others, but also limited, because they were all ordinary people.
She has also read many picture books, and what she advocates now is a couple living together for a lifetime.
But there is no such person in this world. Even her father, Lin Ruhai, had several concubines, let alone other people.
Take Baoyu for example. Not to mention the actors and actresses outside, even in the Yihong Courtyard, there are many beautiful and clever maids.
Qingwen and Xiren are the concubines in the open, while maids such as Sheyue and Qiu Wen are also reserve concubines.
Daiyu can no longer accept these concubines and mistresses. She feels melancholy and unknowingly has become separated from this world and no longer fits in.
Daiyu glanced at Nanxi, and Nanxi suddenly understood what Daiyu meant. She laughed and said, Daiyu is noble and it should be so. Only someone who is equally noble can be worthy of her.
Baoyu was still talking about his feelings in a long-winded manner when Daiyu interrupted him.
"Baoyu, please go back to Yihong Courtyard. Everything in your dream is fake. Go back and wake up."
Baoyu suddenly stopped. It turned out that even after he said so much, his sister still didn't believe him.
Baoyu felt helpless. He felt that something very important was getting away from him. He looked down and saw the spiritual jade hanging on his chest.
Baoyu suddenly pulled it off and threw it to the ground.
Nan Xi frowned, snorted coldly, and the Qingling Sword turned into hairs and flew directly towards Lingyu.
With a "clang", the spiritual jade broke into pieces. It didn't break into several pieces, but into slag that could never be put together again.
Nan Xi retracted the Qingling Sword and no one saw it.
Baoyu was also stunned. How could the spiritual jade that had never been broken no matter how it was dropped before actually break like this?
Baoyu felt a sudden palpitation in his heart, his eyes turned black, and he fell to the ground.
Just then Xiren rushed over, hugged Baoyu and started screaming.
"Baoyu, what's wrong with you?"
Xiren glared at Daiyu and said, "Miss Lin, why don't you try to persuade him? What if something happens to Baoyu?"
Daiyu also looked depressed. She had not expected that the jade would be broken. Baoyu had broken it many times before, but it was still fine.
Hearing Xiren's accusation, Daiyu no longer tolerated her.
"Baoyu wants to drop the jade himself, how can I persuade him? If he doesn't keep the treasure well, he will wear it outside every day, so it is possible that it will drop and get bumped."
Xiren came to her senses and dared not say anything more. She just helped Baoyu to go to Grandmother Jia's room.
This matter is too big, so we must first report it to the old lady and ask her to make the decision.
Daiyu looked at the broken jade in the corridor without saying a word and went to Grandmother Jia's room.
When they arrived at Lady Jia's room, Lady Wang and Sister Feng were already there, and Xiren was kneeling down to report.
"Madam, Baoyu dropped the jade and fainted..."
The doctor at the side also said quickly: "Master Bao is fine, he was just stimulated and held his breath for a while, he will be fine when he wakes up."
Daiyu felt relieved. As long as the person was fine, it was good that the broken jade was broken, so that Baoyu wouldn't use it to scare people every day.
