The Red Chamber: Daiyu's eldest sister is not easy to be

Chapter 19
Then, he ordered to June: "June, go to the small kitchen and send my newly made pastries and some new food to the second sister-in-law's yard."

After finishing speaking, he explained to Wang Xifeng: "Those things are all figured out by myself. They are not worth anything. Let Qiao sister eat and play. If she eats well, I will send someone to serve them. I will send someone to serve them." Always keep it ready for her."

"Yes, girl, the servant will go here."

If Wang Xifeng was next to her, she wouldn't really care, but when she heard that the pastry was prepared for sister Qiao, she happily agreed.

"Then I won't be polite to you, and I'll let Miss Qiao think more about you as an aunt."

After hearing this, Jiusi smiled and said, "Haha...that would be the best."

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and Wang Xifeng got up to leave.

"Come on, you are busy, I won't bother you."

"Sister-in-law walk slowly."

Jiusi sent the man to the door, and when he was gone, she turned around and went back to tell Daiyu that tomorrow she would go out with Jia Mu and the others to offer incense.

Daiyu knew that she could go out to enjoy the incense tomorrow, so she was very happy in her heart, so she immediately ordered the maids to pack up the things they need to bring when they go out, so as not to leave anything behind in a hurry when they go out tomorrow.

Seeing her like this, Jiu Si shook her head with a smile, and didn't delay her packing up any more. After telling her, she went back to continue dealing with things.

Most of the Lin family's property is located in Gusu and Yangzhou. There are not many shops and Zhuangzi in the capital, and there are only three together, and they are all unable to make ends meet.

After seeing the two shopkeepers and a Zhuangtou in charge, Jiusi had someone send them to the yamen, and even the Zhuangzi, the shop, and the servants sold them.

Rather than cleaning up the mess, she prefers to start over, because it is much more convenient and quicker than spending her time trying to modify it.

She has only been in Beijing for a few days, and she has already bought several shops and Zhuangzi, and has assigned stewards to manage things. As a qualified master, what she has to do is not to do everything by herself, but to be able to employ people.

However, with more property, more things will follow. No, there are more and more books on her desk every day, and she feels a little headache when she reads them.

Fortunately, she won't have to suffer so much soon.

Because, she has already decided to hand over these matters to Daiyu, so that she won't have to think about it every day when she has nothing to do, and then cry because of that Jia Baoyu.

The best way for a person to quickly change her personality is to let her become a leader, and she is still the kind of person who will survive if she is unsuccessful.

Especially a soft-hearted person like Daiyu can't see this kind of thing the most.

Early in the morning of the second day, the two sisters got up and exercised for a while, and then, after bathing, changing clothes, and having a meal, they rushed to Rongqingtang with people to join the Jia family.

Jia Baoyu wasn't here this time, presumably because he was going to see Concubine Nan'an, Jia's mother was also afraid that he would throw a temper tantrum and offend others!
The agreed time was there, and Mother Jia didn't dare to delay too long. Seeing the arrival, she called everyone to leave quickly.

The carriages were already prepared at the gate of the mansion. Mother Jia took Shi Xiangyun in one, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Xue's mother and daughter, Sanchun, Jiusi and Daiyu. It was to serve the master, while the little maid and the rough envoy squeezed into two other carriages, and the eight carriages left the city in such a mighty manner.

Not far from the city, Jia's carriage stopped and waited for about half an hour before setting off again.

Jiusi searched forward with mental strength, and seeing some more luxurious carriages than Jia's, he knew that Jia's mother was waiting for the old concubine of Nan'an just now.

What they are going to this time is the Foguang Temple outside the city, it is not too far away, it is not too close, and it takes half an hour to ride a horse, but it happens to be the carriage of these ladies, and the road is not good It is estimated that it will take half a day to get there on the muddy road.

Sure enough, after walking for a while, they couldn't stand being jolted by the carriage and wanted to stop the carriage to rest for a while.

Jiusi didn't care, but Daiyu's face was a bit ugly.

She helped Daiyu get out of the carriage, without her ordering, followed by Jiuyue took out the baggage she was carrying, used the contents inside, rebuilt the carriage inside and out, and laid a thick layer inside the carriage. Thick mattress, that's all.

When Daiyu got into the carriage and started on her way again, she didn't feel the bumps at all.

She touched the mattress under her body curiously, and then opened the curtain to look outside. After finding no difference, she asked Jiusi: "Sister, how did you do it? Why don't you stop?" Bumped?"

Jiusi didn't explain anything to her, just said: "It's nothing, I just asked them to get some things in and out of the carriage, so that you don't feel uncomfortable."

Good to be curious!

As long as the answer is not told to her, then she will always be curious and spend time to understand these things. In this way, she will have even less time to talk to Jia Baoyu.

Seeing that she didn't tell her directly, Daiyu knew that there was nothing to ask, so she didn't ask any more, but said: "My sister cares so much about me, I don't even know how to repay her."

After hearing this, Jiusi smiled and stretched out his hand to gently pinch her face, saying: "As long as you take good care of your body and don't cry all the time, that is the greatest reward for me."

Daiyu slapped her hand away in embarrassment, and replied with some displeasure: "I just said hello to my sister, but my sister started making fun of me again. It really makes people wonder what to say about you."

Hearing this, Jiusi said with a smile: "Then let's not talk about it, okay, let's rest for a while, so that you don't have the energy to play with them after we arrive at the temple."

Hearing what she said, Daiyu nodded obediently, half lying in Qiyue's arms, and stopped talking.

The carriage swayed for a long time before the crowd arrived at the... foot of the mountain in Foguang Temple.

The temple was built so high that these female relatives who were used to staying in the inner house would definitely not be able to climb up by themselves, so they sat on the soft sedan chairs carried by the bearers.

Jiusi was able to climb up quickly, but he couldn't stand that Daiyu needed her company, so he had no choice but to follow him up in a sedan chair.

When we arrived at the gate of the temple on the top of the mountain, there were monks waiting there for a long time. Seeing them coming, we went forward and performed a Buddha ceremony.

Everyone also tidied up their clothes, and politely returned him a Buddha ceremony.

Then, under his leadership, they went in from the left side, first went to burn incense and donate money for sesame oil, and then went to the squatter room where they rested.

Because they came with Nan'an Concubine, they didn't go to the dining hall to eat, but ordered the maids to fetch them for use in the house.

After lunch, they took a bath again, and then everyone went to worship Buddha, monks, read scriptures, and listen to scriptures.

The second day, the third day... Repeat this.

Since they were not allowed to move freely in the temple, they basically copied Buddhist scriptures in the house except when they went out to offer incense until the end of this incense offering.

　Two more...

　　(I have never been to a temple to offer incense, so I checked the words used. The Foguang Temple in the article is also a fiction. If there is such a temple, it is purely coincidental and no offense is intended.)
