Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 224 Waiting to see the excitement



Chapter 224 Waiting to see the excitement

After several nights of hard work, Daiyu finally visited several important institutions around the imperial city.

Combining the scanned images in the system, Daiyu began to draw a topographic map of the outer circle of the imperial city on paper.

There is just a large blank area in the center of the drawing, which is where the palace is located.

When drawing the map, Daiyu deliberately sent away the people around her. She didn't dare to let anyone know about this matter, otherwise, with the skills of those maids, if they were not careful, Gu Mama might notice something was wrong.

It’s not because the maids are not cunning enough, but because Nanny Gu is too outrageous.

As for Ma Dao Po, the reason why Aunt Zhao went to see her last time was clear. It turned out that Aunt Zhao wanted to take action against Zhou Rui's wife. The reason was very simple, it was the commotion caused by the monthly silver incident.

Seeing them fighting each other, Daiyu was happy to watch the fun. She even wanted to take advantage of the fight between the two to create some trouble.

She had just put the map into the warehouse when there was a knock on the door.

"Girl, I'm Bai Shao, can I come in?"

Daiyu quickly glanced at the table to make sure there was nothing that they couldn't see before she allowed Bai Shao to come in.

"Miss, there is news! Lai Shangrong's appointment order has come down, and he has been appointed as the magistrate of a lower county. The Ministry of Revenue has given him 20 days to take up the post, so I'm afraid he will leave soon."

Daiyu showed an expression of watching a good show: "He was exiled when he was young, and was brought up like a young master. He must have brought a lot of good things with him. Let's go and have a look at the fun. It's not interesting to always listen to other people's stories."

Seeing her excited look, Bai Shao also showed a doting smile on her face.

Thinking of the bad idea that had just popped up in her mind, Daiyu hooked her finger at Baishao, motioning her to come closer.

"We still need to find something for Madam Wang to do."

The two conspired for a while, and soon Bai Shao took the order to go out and arrange the personnel.

After nightfall, Yingchun was surprised to see that Daiyu had no intention of leaving. She said, "Usually, you would have gone out at this time. Why haven't you left today?"

Daiyu smiled mysteriously: "Does your Yihuo Pavilion have a place like an auction house?"

This was the first time that Daiyu took the initiative to ask about Yihuo Pavilion, which made Yingchun even more surprised. She felt that she must have something to say.

"Yes, why are you asking? Is there something you want to sell?"

"Yes, I got a drug that has miraculous effects, but I don't want to reveal my identity, so I want to find an auction house to cooperate with. What do you think of this idea? First time is stranger, second time is familiar, we are old acquaintances, how about we split it 50-50?"

Yingchun listened to Daiyu's strange tone and smiled unconsciously: "Girl, you have to tell me what medicine it is first!"

Daiyu moved closer, almost touching Yingchun's nose: "A good thing that will make women only give birth to sons in the future."

Yingchun looked at her suspiciously, not believing that there was such a thing in the world: "Is there really such a magical medicine? Apart from scientific methods, can taking medicine have such an effect?"

"Yup!"

Daiyu spoke with such confidence that Yingchun could not help but believe it a little.

"It's useless to believe me. I have to ask the young master for instructions on such decision-making matters."

Daiyu nodded to show her understanding, but she was very confident in the medicine, so she described its effects in detail to Yingchun.

"Believe me, this thing will definitely work. If it doesn't work..." Daiyu rolled her eyes, "Then I won't want any dividends from Menghua Restaurant anymore!"

After hearing Daiyu's promise, Yingchun half-believed and half-doubtedly agreed: "Okay, I'll convey it for you. But I can't guarantee whether the young master will agree. Was that medicine developed by Doctor Yu?"

"Yes, yes." Daiyu lied with her eyes open.

Because of Doctor Yu's reputation, Yingchun finally believed Daiyu's words to about 70%.

After saying this, Daiyu went back to the Lin Mansion to practice martial arts.

She deliberately went to find Qinghe first and told her, "Please tell Doctor Yu a message for me. If Sister Yingchun asks him about the secret medicine for having a child, let him admit that he researched it. If Sister Yingchun asks too much, use the excuse that the secret medicine of the sect cannot be disclosed and don't go into too much detail."

Qing He agreed immediately and asked, "Miss, Doctor Yu wants to take me in as his adopted daughter. Do you think...is that okay?"

Daiyu had long suspected that they were father and daughter, but they were too confused to believe that they were destined to be together. She was too lazy to point it out, thinking that it would be more interesting to let them discover the truth on their own.

"What's wrong with that? As long as you are willing, you can find a time to have a drink and you can just kowtow to him!"

Qing He's face was visibly smiling, as if there was light shining on it. If it wasn't night time, she would have wanted to shout out loud to express her joy.

"It's just..." Daiyu thought of Wang Xifeng and Qin Keqing, "It's just that I want to keep Doctor Yu in Beijing for a few more months. After Sister Qin gives birth safely, the escort agency will escort her back to Yangzhou."

Qing He nodded: "Doctor Yu has already told me about this. He also said that he would take me to find my stepmother and sister. This way we can act alone, and I have martial arts skills, so I can protect Doctor Yu."

"No matter how good your kung fu is, you are still a girl. I will have the escort agency send someone to follow you. If you encounter some situations where it is inconvenient for girls to show up, there will be someone who can help you."

Daiyu was really happy for Qinghe. Such a sensible girl finally had someone who cared for her.

She took out a futon from the warehouse and sat cross-legged in the center of the training ground.

The next second, the soul tablet appeared in Daiyu's right hand. A cool feeling came over her, and even the mosquitoes around her flew away automatically.

Daiyu was not in a hurry to cause trouble for Ma Dao Po for the time being, so she just improved her own strength and asked someone to keep an eye on Zhou Ruijia's reaction.

She wanted to find out Ma Dao Po's background first and then adjust her strategy.

But Daiyu didn't expect that while Zhou Rui's wife had not made any move yet, Lai Shangrong was about to leave Beijing first.

As soon as the news came that Daiyu was going out secretly, the maids began to scramble to follow her.

Yingchun was also a little curious, so she tugged at Bai Shao's sleeve and asked, "What are they arguing about?"

Bai Shao was a little hesitant, but she also wanted to go with them. She thought, if Miss Yingchun also went, then she wouldn't have to compete with them?

Bai Shao's mind was full of calculations, and she promised, "I'll go ask the girl!"

After saying that, she rushed forward and rescued Daiyu from the crowd: "Miss, Miss Yingchun wants to know what they are doing. Can I tell her? If Miss Yingchun also wants to go, how should I answer?"
