Chapter 129 Wang Xifeng recovers
But the next second, Wang Xifeng felt a hand gently patting her shoulder. She trembled and muttered softly, "I'm not afraid of retribution from the underworld!"
Daiyu had no choice but to speak a little louder: "My dear sister-in-law, it's really me. I have something important to talk to you about!"
She was worried that Wang Xifeng still didn't believe it, so she said, "Do you remember the nectar water you asked me about last time? I brought some for you..."
After hearing this, Wang Xifeng finally believed it. She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a figure squatting beside the bed. Who else could it be but Daiyu!
Her sleepiness disappeared instantly. She felt a little angry and helpless: "You are such a heartless person. You are just like your damn cousin. You only know how to bully me!"
As Wang Xifeng spoke, her voice was choked with sobs.
Seeing this, Daiyu quickly stood up, sat beside her and apologized, "My dear sister-in-law, it's my fault. Look, I brought you an apology!"
In the dim light of the lanterns in the yard, Wang Xifeng vaguely saw that Daiyu was holding a palm-sized porcelain bottle in her hand. Thinking of the nectar water she had just heard about, she pursed her lips, suppressed her smile, and snatched the small bottle: "This is more like it!"
Having said that, she pulled out the cork without hesitation, tilted her head back and drank the potion.
The sweet taste lingered in her mouth, and Wang Xifeng exclaimed: "That's the taste! I know it's a good thing. When your nephew is born, give him some. My body is already good enough."
Daiyu recalled Wang Xifeng's bloody avalanche in the original novel. Although there was an allusion in it, in this real world, Wang Xifeng must have suffered from a cold.
She couldn't help asking, "Have you ever seen a doctor? What did he say?"
"I have to thank you very much for this!" Wang Xifeng grabbed Daiyu's little hand and pulled her to sit down beside the bed. "The doctor said that the cold I had in my childhood has been cured! From now on, as long as it is not in the coldest days of winter and I don't soak in ice water, it will not recur."
After hearing this, Daiyu put her worries to rest: "I feel relieved now."
Wang Xifeng suddenly remembered the timing of Daiyu's late-night visit and spoke almost at the same time as Daiyu: "Why did you come at this time?"
"Did cousin Lian bully you again?"
The eyes of both of them sparkled like gemstones in the dark night. It was Wang Xifeng who sighed first: "You came at this time, so I guess things over there are still going on."
Daiyu realized that Wang Xifeng was talking about the teasing sounds in the side room, and asked, "Could it be that those people were restless and provoked you?"
Wang Xifeng sneered, her tone full of disdain: "I hold their indentures in my hands, how dare they challenge me. Even your cousin doesn't believe that I am really not jealous anymore, and keeps recruiting people to the courtyard, and it's almost full."
Daiyu's eyes lit up when she heard this: "That's why I came here this time!"
"That bastard also likes the maid next to you?" When Wang Xifeng heard this, she supported herself on the bed and tried to get up, but was held down by Daiyu in time.
Daiyu comforted her and helped her lie down, not forgetting to gently stroke her belly, and at the same time she was glad that she had given her some medicine to drink in advance.
"My dear sister-in-law, I'm not here for this. You're pregnant, how can you stand such torment!"
"Well! I'm in much better shape now. At that time, I was still in charge of the family affairs, but... cough, cough, anyway, I'm fine!" Wang Xifeng patted Daiyu's hand on her shoulder, indicating that she was fine, and then asked curiously, "Then why did you come?"
Daiyu leaned close to her ear and told her all her guesses.
After hearing this, Wang Xifeng sneered, "My good aunt, in order to provoke me to come out, she really did everything she could!"
"Speaking of which, the old ancestor also has a lot of responsibility for this." Daiyu pointed out the core of the problem without any hesitation, "If she could treat everyone equally, even if she wanted to give some subsidies to the second uncle, I think the first uncle would not have too many complaints. As the saying goes, a country cannot have two masters. It is not a good thing for the family that the first uncle and the second uncle are secretly competing with each other like this."
After Daiyu's advice, Wang Xifeng seemed to see the light and had a clearer understanding of the current situation. She asked Daiyu: "What do you mean by saying that you came here for this?"
"I think it's not a good idea for you and cousin Lian to live here while your uncle and aunt live in the east courtyard. My sister-in-law just said that cousin Lian has recruited a lot of people, and my nephew is about to be born, so this courtyard is really not big enough to accommodate them. This is a good opportunity. You can take this opportunity to ask your aunt and ancestors to move to the east courtyard. It will also free up the courtyard for the three sisters to live in."
"This is also a good idea..."
Daiyu continued while the iron was hot: "Then you should discuss it with your aunt first, and I will deal with my matter later."
Wang Xifeng had a bad feeling: "What are you going to do?"
In the quiet bedroom, only Daiyu could be heard sneering: "Since Second Uncle is not convenient to intervene because of the women in the backyard, then I will stimulate him so that he will have the motivation to discipline her."
Wang Xifeng hurriedly dissuaded him: "Don't do this!"
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. My mother is from the Jia family, and I will not do anything to harm the Jia family." What Daiyu didn't say was that every step in her plan would be well-founded and she would never act rashly.
The two were silent for a long time, and Wang Xifeng suddenly chuckled: "No wonder you brought nectar water this time, you came prepared!"
Daiyu also laughed: "I am just worried about my eldest nephew!"
Just as she was about to leave, Wang Xifeng suddenly asked again, "Why do I feel that you don't like my aunt very much, and by extension, you don't like the Xue family."
Wang Xifeng felt something was wrong with Daiyu's behavior. She hadn't figured it out before, but it was obvious now: a young lady from an official family returned to the Jia family from her own house in the middle of the night. This was the biggest suspicion.
Thinking of Daiyu's daily words and deeds, Wang Xifeng felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach. She took a few deep breaths and barely suppressed the strange feeling.
Daiyu saw the change in Wang Xifeng's expression and knew that she had reacted, so she said calmly: "Second Aunt doesn't like me either. And the Xue family...as long as they don't provoke me, I won't have any special feelings towards them."
The subtext is self-evident.
Wang Xifeng originally thought that Daiyu would make some excuses, but she didn't expect her to admit it so frankly.
"You knew before you came that my aunt didn't like you! And in the past two years, you have built up a lot of connections in the Jia Mansion. You even know everything that happens in the mansion in the Lin Mansion." Wang Xifeng became more and more frightened as she spoke, "Where on earth did you come from, you monster?"
