Chapter 239 Daiyu's Coming of Age (Part 2) (Additional Update!!!
Chapter 239 Daiyu's Coming of Age (Part 2) (Additional Update!!!)
Daiyu led Zijuan and Xueyan out of the mansion and wandered around the capital. She first looked for maids in various places, only to find out that they had already found their next masters in just a few days. These maids from Rongguo Mansion are more popular than ordinary servants.
In the carriage, Zijuan was secretly surprised by this. Like Yuanyang, she was concerned about these helpless girls. Daiyu thought things through, just like Jia Min taught her, and explained the tricks to the two maids.
"I have figured it out." Daiyu smiled and said confidently, "Other families invite these maids away, firstly, they can learn from the scenes of the rich and powerful. Secondly, if there is a chance in the future, this is a way to establish connections."
"Is this... okay? Miss." Xueyan blinked blankly. She was kicked out of the mansion, how could she still establish connections?
Zijuan reacted quickly and understood what the lady meant. She agreed immediately, "That's right, Yan'er. Think about it, who will remember this in three or five years? Everything has a reason. These maids have a good life and bring some gifts to thank the lady for her teachings and guidance. Do you think this door should be allowed in or not?"
"Then, don't we have to thank her in return?" Xueyan was surprised. She still couldn't understand the relationship. Daiyu was afraid that she would think too much and think badly, so she smiled and said, "If you want to establish a relationship, you naturally have to give up your face. If you are self-reliant, then you can go to heaven."
Zijuan kept nodding beside her. This is indeed the truth. Now that everyone has a place to go, she can finally report to Sister Yuanyang. Zijuan is not familiar with these maids, but she is familiar with Yuanyang. And Yuanyang has always been the image of the eldest sister among these maids.
Zijuan was willing to kneel directly in front of Daiyu because of Yuanyang's words, which shows the importance of Yuanyang among these maids. Daiyu thought more, and along the way, she couldn't help but recall Yuanyang's daily words and deeds. After thinking about it, she still felt that her grandmother's methods of judging and training people were really powerful.
It's a pity that her grandmother was smart all her life, but she was ruined by her aunt and cousin. Daiyu shook her head, she reached out to lift the curtain of the carriage, looked at the scenery outside the carriage, and asked: "Next, there is only one place left to go."
"It's my fault that the young lady has troubled me." Zijuan looked apologetic. She knew that as a servant of the Lin family, it was actually against the rules to ask the young lady for the affairs of the Jia Mansion. Hui Zijuan was annoyed about this.
"You and I are like sisters, sister Zijuan, there is no need to say more." Daiyu smiled, her temperament is different from that of ordinary people. Don't look at her usual petty mind when she is against people. But if an outsider really offends her, she is willing to laugh it off.
Daiyu's mind was not only crooked, but also her anger was crooked. She could take what others said as normal. But if Chen Heng said something wrong, she would immediately think twice. Fortunately, her brother was a wooden man who would not move until he was hit three times, so she never thought too much about it.
So they arrived at a private house in the outer city. Yuanyang had inquired in advance that this was the home of Qingwen's cousin and cousin-in-law. Zijuan helped Daiyu get off the carriage, and a servant went forward to knock on the door for them.
After a while, a lady came out. Seeing Daiyu surrounded by a group of servants, she thought that someone from Rongguo Mansion came to take Qingwen back, so she happily invited them in.
When Xueyan explained her purpose, Qingwen's cousin-in-law looked a little frustrated. It turned out that she was a cousin from Rongguo Mansion who came to visit.
Daiyu didn't care about her thoughts and led people directly to the side room in the backyard. As soon as she entered, she smelled a strong smell of medicine. When she lifted the curtain again, Daiyu saw a sick beauty lying on the bed with a pale face. Her eyes were very empty, full of despair.
Qingwen saw the visitor clearly and was about to get out of bed to greet her. Daiyu hurried forward, held Qingwen's hand, and said, "Don't worry, sister, I came to see you today on behalf of my grandmother. My grandmother heard that you were driven out of the yard, and she has been unable to eat or drink these days. She is very worried about you."
Sitting on the stool brought by Xueyan, Daiyu's words made Qingwen lift her sleeves to wipe her tears and choked up, saying, "Cousin, please tell the old lady that I am wronged."
As she said the last two words, a sickly blush appeared on Qingwen's pale face. Daiyu became more and more frightened as she watched, and hurriedly comforted her: "Sister Qingwen, I know, don't worry, don't worry first."
Zijuan knew that at this time, Qingwen had to calm down her anger. She hurried forward and said: "Our young lady came here on the orders of the lady, sister Qingwen, you might as well tell us the whole story first, so that we can help you."
After such comfort, Qingwen explained the matter intermittently. Daiyu and Zijuan looked at each other. If what Qingwen said was right, they already knew who was secretly making trouble. Although Qingwen was a little arrogant in Yihong Courtyard, she was very attentive in her work. When Baoyu went to bed at night, Qingwen would always keep watch and serve him. Zijuan knew very well how tiring this hard job was. Even when sleeping, you have to keep your eyes half open, which is very stressful.
Today was just the first meeting, Daiyu couldn't ask Qingwen to come to the house right away. In addition, Qingwen was ill, and her mother would definitely be furious if she took her back like this. Even if Jia Min wanted to vent her grandmother's anger, she would not allow a patient to enter the house rashly.
With an idea in mind, Daiyu only spoke words of comfort and relief. Seeing her gentle words, Qingwen also hoped to hear her, "Cousin, I know that Mr. Bao is always close to you. You came today, but what did he say to you?"
again? Daiyu blinked and glanced at Zijuan. The latter understood it and immediately stepped forward and asked: "Qingwen, are you saying that Second Master Bao has come to see you?"
Qingwen nodded. She was a proud and arrogant person, and she usually used sharp teeth and a sharp mouth to protect herself. If she really climbed into bed secretly and suffered this fate, she would have deserved it, so she accepted her fate. But the person who stole the fish was not him, but someone else. How could Qingwen endure being wronged for no reason?
This silly Qingwen still thought that she was the victim of an attack. I can't figure out the relationship between Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu. It's really pitiful.
"Then what did my cousin say?" Daiyu knew it was time to answer the question herself.
Sure enough, it was Daiyu who asked. Qingwen dared to say with confidence: "Second Master said: It's a pity that my two nails have grown two inches long, and this disease has made them worse."
When Qingwen said this, she was still thinking about Baoyu's ability to prove her innocence, and she was also worried that the other party would forget her hard service and end the friendship between master and servant. He also hopes that the other party can take him back to Yihongyuan, so that his charming people can take a good look at him and see that he is an upright and stand-up person.
Such complex thoughts were intertwined in her heart, so much so that Qingwen opened her starry eyes, showing a look of sadness, pain, pain and hope.
But Daiyu listened and really didn't know what to say. This confused cousin, the servant in his house, is still thinking about two broken nails when his life is in danger. She looked down again and saw that two of the nails on Qingwen's fingertips had been shaved off, and she quickly asked where they were.
Qingwen smiled sadly: "They kept calling me a fox, so I pulled out this thing and gave it to the second master. Since I have a false reputation, it is beyond my nature to do this, but it is nothing more than this."
This maid is afraid that she has a death wish and is trying to prove her innocence by dying. Daiyu noticed this and felt her hands were even colder. She quickly looked at Zijuan and signaled that she wanted to drink some tea.
Xue Yan suddenly became smart at this time and took the initiative to trot over, pick up the teapot and pour it out. He found that the tea was cold and not very clean. How dare he let the young lady drink it? He shook his head at Daiyu and Zicuckoo in a cryptic manner.
This is no place for patients to live. Even if they live in a good family, half their lives have to be spent in it. Daiyu looked around and then asked, "Did my cousin leave anything for you when he left?"
Qingwen shook her head, she had already heard it. The fact that my cousin is here is entirely because of the wishes of the wife and the old lady. But whether she can return to Yihongyuan, in the final analysis, still depends on Mrs. Wang's wishes.
Daiyu sighed in her heart, knowing that she had to go back and discuss the matter further. She chatted with Qingwen again before pulling Zicuckoo and Xueyan to stand up. When she reached the door, she called Qingwen's cousin.
Now, Sister Lin no longer wants to talk nonsense to her. He directly used his name and said that when Qingwen recovered from his illness, he would invite her to come into the house to serve him. Seeing that she was from a second-rank official of the current dynasty, Qingwen's cousin was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly shouted that she would take good care of Qingwen.
Daiyu was afraid that this person would say some ungrateful things secretly, so in front of this person, she told Xueyan and Zicuckoo to come over every day to see Qingwen, and left ten taels of silver for Qingwen's medical treatment.
After doing this, Daiyu felt a little relieved and got up to go home. When she got home, she rushed to Jia Min and told her what she had seen today. Jia Min sneered and said, "The master is too ignorant to accomplish anything, and the slave is also stubborn. What a fool."
When my mother scolded people, she was really merciless. Daiyu was thinking something bad, but she was also scolded.
"Even if you are sick, don't go there to see her, so as not to get over the illness." How can a Qingwen compare with her beloved daughter? Jia Min nodded at Daiyu and said, "As long as the person is fine, I can give her enough." Your grandmother is on a mission."
"In a few days, it's time to send the invitations to the guests. You have to handle this matter yourself. If you don't get your haircut once, you won't learn anything, and you will be a confused mother in the future."
Daiyu was embarrassed and nodded quickly.
…………
…………
It is now the end of January, and there is not long left before Daiyu's hairdresser's day. Sister Lin stayed at home all day and learned the etiquette from Jia Min. Occasionally, when I have free time, I go to my brother's house to sit. Either watch the other person read and write, or chat about recent gossip.
After all the talk, it was natural to talk about Qingwen. Daiyu feels that Qingwen's temper should be difficult for Jia Min to detect. So I turned a corner and asked Chen Heng what he meant.
"Sister, do you want her to come to our house?" Chen Heng was not stupid. After listening to Sister Lin's words a few times, he knew what the other party meant.
What about you and us? Daiyu couldn't answer the question, so she had no choice but to nod. Qingwen's temper will make everyone suffer wherever she goes. But after all, he was a wronged person, if he wanted to die in front of his eyes like this. Lin Daiyu was also afraid of herself and couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.
Chen Heng put down the book and thought for a while. He had been studying really hard recently. All my mind is on the book, and I have no energy to devote to this matter. Now that I have received my sister's request, I will put some thought into it and think slowly.
After a while, Chen Heng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate." After saying that, he didn't wait for his sister to speak, and immediately explained, "Sister, she is holding her breath in her heart right now. If she can't control her anger, go to another place and treat her It doesn’t help matters.”
"Brother, do you have any ideas?" Lin Daiyu's eyes lit up. How could she not know Qingwen's situation? I just feel that my brother is always resourceful and can't trouble him even with trivial matters.
Chen Heng laughed loudly on the couch, handed the hand warmer to Xinda beside him, and asked him to add more hot charcoal. He tilted his head, thought for a while, and then said: "Heart disease needs heart medicine. If Baoyu is powerless to save the world... Sister, do you still remember the storybook written for Shuiyi?"
"How can I not remember it." Daiyu smiled lightly. That was the first storybook in her life, and there was also the fate of Shuiyi. Daiyu still remembered it vividly.
"You might as well give this book to her. Let her relieve her boredom during her illness... When she is a little better..." Chen Heng supported his head with his hands and suddenly laughed, "You can take her to take a walk outside the Jia Mansion."
"Why is that?!" Daiyu was puzzled. After finally getting out of the disease, why did she have to return to the sad place.
"If the heart is not dead, the Tao will not be born." Chen Heng smiled. Although he admired Qingwen a lot when he read the book. But now, he and Qingwen really don't have much personal relationship, so he doesn't plan to bother.
His method is quite risky to use. If it doesn't work, it will be another blow to Qingwen. But as long as she can get through it, all the past will become clouds and smoke. It is almost like the effect of Phoenix Nirvana, reborn from the ashes. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, it depends on her own luck.
Daiyu nodded, she also figured it out. Brother's temperament has always been self-respecting and self-improvement. The methods he thinks and uses must not escape his own nature. This is what kind of person, what kind of path he walks.
But not everyone can be like brother, seeing the smoke of war as a good time, seeing hardships as a smooth road. Daiyu held back a smile at the corner of her mouth, her eyebrows turned, and looked up and down at Chen Heng, "Brother, in another month, it will be my day of marriage."
"Yes." Chen Heng nodded and smiled. He didn't dare to imagine that they would reach this age in a blink of an eye. Now Sister Lin is about to be fifteen, and he is already seventeen. Both of them are in the prime of life and youth.
"What gift did my brother prepare for me?" Daiyu couldn't help but ask curiously.
Chen Heng would never let her hear his words, so he just picked up the book he had just put down, "If my sister has nothing to do, I will read a book."
"Stingy guy." Lin Daiyu muttered, and did not get up and leave, just watching Chen Heng concentrate on the pages of the book. If the latter does not even have this little calmness, it would be a waste of more than ten years of learning.
Fame still needs to be obtained from books. Chen Heng has been working in the court for the past two years. During this period, he just settled his experiences and digested them one by one. The article written in this way fell into Lin Ruhai's hands. The teacher also sighed repeatedly, "He is ambitious and speaks well, and his feelings are sincere and his words are clever. It is a jade book with chapters and a golden book with articles."
Chen Heng's confidence in the imperial examination increased a little more when he received such an evaluation from his mentor. But he still felt unsafe. He had to win the first prize in this imperial examination. He also felt angry.
I have been in the business for two years. I can be said to have done my duty well, not to mention that I have been pleading for the people in everything. But after doing so, I still ended up being attacked by others. Chen Heng is not a clay man, how can he not be angry. It is one thing to let go, and it is another to want to prove yourself.
I have read half of the sea of books, and I have just seen the three mountains and five peaks. For the sake of my heart, Chen Heng did not even go back to Yangzhou for the New Year. Although it only takes half a month to go back, there are many miscellaneous things to do, and it is hard to say how long it will take. At present, Chen Heng is unwilling to give up even for a moment.
Daiyu is accompanying her, and she doesn't feel bored. I found a book from the bookshelf, sat on the two ends of the couch with Chen Heng, drank tea and read books together, and spent an ordinary night together.
…………
…………
The third day of February is closer to Daiyu's coming of age. Old friends in Yangzhou have already gone to Beijing.
Baoqin came the earliest. In addition to keeping her appointment with Daiyu, she also had to buy a house for the Xue family in Yangzhou in the capital. This was their family affair. Chen Heng only took the time to accompany his second brother and Daiyu for a meal, and then he continued to lock himself in the room.
The second person to come was Qian Dayou, who was specially invited by Chen Heng in a letter. After Daiyu came of age, Chen Heng prepared to move to the new house. On the one hand, he was fully prepared for the next year's imperial examination, and on the other hand, his sister was old enough, and he lived there day by day. When he proposed marriage in the future, others would inevitably gossip. To this end, Lin Ruhai, the teacher, had no objection.
When they moved to the new house in the future, Chen Heng just happened to pull Qian Dayou to study hard together. The latter was also ready to leave the gentle land for next year's imperial examination and spend a year on it. When old friends met again, Chen Heng had to accompany them for a day or two. The old Chen family borrowed Qian Dayou's hand and sent another 500 taels to Chen Heng.
"Thank you for making this trip, Brother Qian."
"That's right. It's better to study with Zhixing than to be idle at home all day." Qian Dayou has grown a beautiful beard. He stroked it and said, "I became a father at the beginning of last year. Now I just play with my children all day at home. I don't have the energy to study hard before. Even if Zhixing doesn't invite me, I will come."
Qian Dayou had a big fat boy last year. Chen Heng also knew about this in the letter. He smiled and said, "I hope my sister-in-law doesn't blame me."
"It's okay." Qian Dayou chuckled, "Before I went to Beijing, Xue Ke came to my house several times and asked me to tell you. He told us to wait well in the capital. After August, he and Yuanbai will definitely come."
Chen Heng laughed and took Qian Dayou to see his new home. This time when Qian Dayou went to Beijing, it was naturally impossible for him to let his friends live in the guild hall. This year, Qian Dayou will be with him regardless of food and accommodation.
Not only him, in a month or so. Chen's father and mother will also come to Beijing for a short stay. They have to take care of Chen Heng until the examination is over, and take care of Chen Heng's marriage proposal.
…………
…………
It was February 12th, the sky was bright and it was an excellent day.
Lin's mansion was decorated with lights and colorful decorations everywhere, and servants from all walks of life were running around, not only inducing guests to take their seats, but also being moved by the atmosphere in the mansion.
Mrs. Jia rarely goes out for the sake of her granddaughter's haircut. This time for the first time, I left the Jia Mansion and brought the children of the Jia family to visit the Lin Mansion.
Of course, Mrs. Wang will not come, and she is also familiar with the illness again. On the other hand, Mrs. Xing of the eldest family, as her aunt, maintained the superficial friendship between the two families.
It is a big day for a girl to get her hairdo, according to Dayong's etiquette. There will be steps of picking clothes, initial addition, additional addition, and third addition before and after. The dresses used include short coats, skirts, deep skirts with curved trains, long skirts with long sleeves, etc. Everything is essential, the workmanship should be exquisite, and the style should be elegant and colorful.
These were supposed to be sent by Daiyu's biological aunt, but Mrs. Wang was possessed by something unknown, and there was no news until late January. Where could Jia Min wait for her? Directly and privately order someone to prepare a full set of formal attire, just in case.
So on the ninth day of February, Mrs. Wang asked someone to send all kinds of dresses. When Jia Min saw it, she found that all kinds of clothes were simple and ordinary. If my daughter goes out wearing this, I don't know how many things will be ruined.
What a shameless womanly trick, Jia Min snorted in her heart. With a wave of his hand, he took out all the clothes he had made half a month in advance. He still felt the most distressed about his daughter.
Daiyu didn't know about this and was still having fun with the handkerchief in her boudoir. Wei Qijun, Wei Shu, Xue Baoqin, Sanchun, and Xiangyun are all here to keep company. In addition to these close sisters, there were also female relatives from various palaces in the capital who came to visit outside the back house. However, they only had a normal relationship with Daiyu and they all just joined in the fun.
Mrs. Fan of the Wei family was one of the chief guests of Jiji. She came to the door and saw that the master was still joking. She hurriedly urged: "You kid, you haven't washed up and changed clothes quickly on such a big day. People outside are waiting for you." What about you?"
Daiyu stuck out her tongue, still unable to change her girlish mentality, and replied in a charming voice: "Auntie, Yu'er knows."
All the ladies laughed one after another, and then they hurriedly stepped forward to put their hair up and dress the sisters.
…………
…………
The ceremony begins.
As the guest of honor, Mrs. Fan invited the Lin family and his wife to take their seats. Some praisers opened their books and recited: "When there is a daughter in the Lin family, she first joins the Yuan Dynasty. She abandons her young aspirations and becomes virtuous by being obedient."
As the first sound passed, a group of girls gathered around Daiyu who had changed her clothes and came out. The girls just stood still in front of the guests, and Yousi said again: "Those with hairpins will bow three times."
"Give my respects to my parents."
"Second thanks, Master."
"Three times pay homage to our ancestors."
After the first ceremony was completed, Mrs. Fan stepped forward to put on a hairpin for Daiyu who had changed her hair style. Today's cardamom girl is extremely beautiful with flowers dotted between her eyebrows. The bangs that used to be in the past have all been combed up. Adult women often wear this hairstyle.
Chen Heng stood behind the door and only saw the girl's beautiful figure when Daiyu saluted the guests. Once the ceremony was completed, Daiyu was led away by Baoqin and Wei Shu, and changed her clothes again.
When she came out this time, Daiyu had already changed into dark clothes. The praiser continued to send congratulatory messages, and Mrs. Fan stepped forward to put on the walking wave for Daiyu. The Bu Yao was prepared by Mrs. Jia for her granddaughter. I heard that it was the jewelry she used when she was growing up. The style was extremely grand and the guests were amazed.
After changing clothes, Daiyu put on the grand dress again and returned to the hall. The guest of honor, Mrs. Fan, will be wearing a hairpin crown this time. This thing is also a pair with Bu Yao. They are all meant to represent a peacock spreading its wings. The spread golden wings are dotted with various gemstones, most of which are emeralds. Presumably, they also have the meaning of men and women.
The last step is the dipping ceremony, where the guest of honor, Mrs. Fan, toasts Daiyu, the hairpin bearer. Drinking this cup means that the Lin family's little daughter has grown up.
Lin Ruhai watched the whole process silently, but at this point, his eyes were slightly red. It seems that he has seen his daughter about to leave his wings. Jia Min's face was filled with relief and pride. The couple really had different feelings.
The praiser finally recited: "The month is auspicious and the day is auspicious. May you be blessed with longevity and good fortune. The hairpin ceremony is over."
This sentence means: On this auspicious day, I wish you long life, happiness, good fortune and good health.
During the ceremony, there should also be a part where the host and guest give words. Yes, that's what happened when Baoyu first met. This matter must be handled today by the guest of honor. But Lin Ruhai couldn't bear to let go of her daughter, so she took it as a boudoir. This is not a bad rule. Many families who love their daughters are not willing to give their daughters a gift immediately, hoping that they can stay with them for two more years.
Chen Heng stood in the crowd of onlookers and witnessed Sister Lin wearing a dress and leaving step by step with Bao Qin's support, and was filled with emotions in his heart.
Coming to this life, being able to protect Sister Lin and spend this life safely and smoothly is a life worth living.
After the ceremony was completed, after Lin Ruhai and Jia Min thanked the guests, servants came up to invite the guests to sit down for a meal. During the dinner, everyone couldn't help but praise Daiyu's appearance and temperament.
The dress sent by Mrs. Wang was placed on the ceremony table. When everyone sees its style, words of evaluation are indispensable now. The Lin family can invite the wife of the Minister of Etiquette to be the guest of honor. How come my aunt still behaves like this? It is really embarrassing.
Mrs. If she had known that her sister-in-law had this intention, she would have hid at home and said that she was recovering from her illness, so why bother coming here to suffer this bad luck.
Baoyu, who was sitting at the table with her, even lowered his head, his face full of frustration. When Sister Lin saluted the guests around her, she only glanced at Chen Heng and didn't even look at herself. Feeling depressed, Baoyu looked up and saw Chen Heng at the next table. The latter's position was close to where the sun was slanting, and an annoying face with a bright smile that had not gone away was clearly illuminated by the sun.
It's really annoying, the more I watch it, the more irritated I become.
…………
…………
In the middle of the night, Chen Heng was already concentrating on reading in the house. Outside the house, there was a sudden knock on the door.
With such an unannounced move, Chen Heng knew it was Sister Lin without having to guess. Sure enough, Daiyu came in wearing the same hairstyle and jewelry as in the daytime. He was only wearing clothes and had changed into normal attire.
"Brother." Daiyu called out crisply and led Zicuckoo up, who was holding three gift boxes in her hands.
Chen Hengduo took a look at the style of the box and saw that they were all gifts from him. He laughed quickly and said, "Why, are you here to settle the account because my gift was unsatisfactory?"
Daiyu glared at him angrily, sat down opposite her, and asked, "How did you get these two things, brother?"
While talking, Daiyu opened the first gift box. Inside was a pair of luminous pearls the size of a child's fist. Chen Heng secretly smiled, this girl hadn't even walked in yet, she was already taking care of the house. He did not dare to hesitate and immediately replied: "I bought this from the Hongmao Mission. Don't worry, no one has used it before."
Daiyu subconsciously said anxiously: "How much money will this cost?" She also knew the situation of the Chen family. Even though we are richer now, we are still not as good as those from noble families. How could Daiyu not feel distressed by spending money like this?
It did cost a lot, and most of the money was spent on this. Chen Heng shook his head disapprovingly, "This is the only time in my life when I get my haircut, it should be more grand."
Seeing this, Daiyu didn't know what to say, so she asked again: "What about these pairs of jades?"
"You're still asking me this." Chen Heng was also amused. He looked at the housekeeper with a smile and asked, "These jade pairs are called Lantian jade. Sister, do you know what I am going to say?"
Daiyu's face immediately turned red. She lowered her head and looked into the box, only to see a green jade pendant shining brightly under the light. She said timidly: "Brother, have you guessed it?"
"Yes." Chen Heng nodded and sighed, "If I hadn't been concentrating on reading recently. When I read about the jade produced in Yuanhe County, how could I have thought of the poem "The sun is warm in Lantian and jade creates smoke."
When Sister Lin gave her pseudonym Yuan He, he still couldn't figure it out and didn't delve too deeply into it. Recently, I saw in the geographical records that Yuanhe County has Lantian, which is rich in jade, and I understand the deep affection of Sister Lin.
"So these pair of night pearls..." Daiyu lowered her head and only showed Chen Heng the beautiful pearls.
"Of course the moon in the ocean sheds tears." Chen Heng put down the book and suppressed the urge to reach out and play with the girl's hair.
Seeing that the girl remained silent for a long time, Chen Heng couldn't help but joked: "Why didn't you tell me about my third gift?"
"Then what's there to say?" Thinking of her little thoughts at the beginning, Daiyu turned her head in shame. The clever Zijuan had already put down the gift box and hid outside the door.
When Chen Heng saw no one around, he became more courageous. He took the gift box, opened it, and took out the wooden hairpin made by himself.
"I originally wanted to buy you a hosta." Chen Heng said and laughed, "Unfortunately, my brother is not rich enough, hahaha. After thinking about it, I decided to make one myself, as a token of my appreciation."
Lin Daiyu still didn't speak, so Chen Heng could only talk to himself: "Sister, can you let me put a hairpin on you?"
They have already fallen into a trap, and it is too late to run away now. Lin Daiyu could only lower her head and responded softly, "Okay."
Chen Heng gently leaned down, smelled the fragrance of the girl's hair, carefully took out the hairpin, and inserted the wooden hairpin he made by himself into the girl's hair.
"This feeling can be remembered later, but I was already at a loss at the time." Chen Heng nodded with emotion, "Fortunately, I didn't find it too late."
"Lingyue Jiahui, a match made in heaven. Sister, when I am named on the gold medal list, I will come to propose marriage to the teacher, okay?"
Sister Lin, who was originally very aggressive and wanted to settle a score, now turned red, with watery eyes, and couldn't help but raise her head to look at her sweetheart under the lamp.
"Brother..." The red lips parted slightly, but he didn't say another word. Chen Heng could no longer restrain himself and leaned over to bully him. When the red lips are closed, they have their own fragrance and beauty, which is difficult to describe in full.
Daiyu's eyes widened subconsciously, and all distracting thoughts were swept away in her groggy mind. She sat there blankly, feeling her heart pounding, and she even forgot to breathe. After a long time, Chen Heng straightened up reluctantly.
"It won't work, it won't work." Chen Heng waved his hands repeatedly and said with a blushing face, "Sister, please go back quickly. If you continue to sit here, brother may even forget the book."
Sister Lin didn't know what a man was yet, so she just stomped out with shame on her face. She still doesn't know how much perseverance her good brother Chen Heng relied on to be able to stop at such a critical moment.
I'm pretty good. When Saturday comes, I think of ways to add more updates. Hahahaha, please vote, please vote. Hand over your tickets all the time, hahaha, I am very happy today. The next step is to try it.
