When she woke up, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon. Lin Mo had already arranged for Snow Goose and the others to prepare the hangover soup and served it to everyone.
"I'm old, I'm old!" Grandmother Jia sighed." I'm already in a daze after drinking a little. When I was young, I could still climb trees after drinking a bottle.”
"Old ancestor isn't old at all." Yuanyang complimented," It must be because the alcohol content is too high now.”
"Your little mouth looks like it's smeared with honey!”Grandmother Jia looked at Yuanyang lovingly." Old Ancestor likes it!”
" Ancestor…" Yuanyang twisted her body." Ancestor is really not old!"”
After a while, Baoyu also came over." The ancestor is awake."”
" Come here." Grandmother Jia beckoned Baoyu to sit beside her." Does Baoyu have a headache?"”Grandmother Jia looked at Baoyu lovingly.
"Baoyu doesn't have a headache. Does it hurt, Old Ancestor?" Baoyu raised his full moon face and acted coquettishly.
"Good grandson, the ancestor is fine. Have the sisters woken up?”
"Thank you for your concern, Old Ancestor. We're all awake. We were afraid of disturbing Old Ancestor, so we didn't dare to come over.”Baochai replied in a gentle voice.
A group of sisters came in laughing and laughing." Sister Lin's wine is really strong. We all drank too much.”Xiang Yun giggled.
"I wonder who insisted on drinking? After drinking it, he even complained that our wine had a strong aftertaste.”Daiyu teased.
Xiang Yun didn't mind." Of course, there must be good wine to accompany good food. Sister Lin's food was too delicious.”
Everyone pointed at Xiang Yun and laughed.
Everyone surrounded Grandmother Jia and played around for a while. It was getting late and everyone dispersed.
Baoyu looked at Daiyu reluctantly, hoping that she would stay a little longer. Xiangyun pulled him away.
"They all left." Lin Mo came out at some point.
"You scared me!" Daiyu rebuked," Why didn't Brother come out to see the ancestor off?"”
"This is her house anyway, so why would I need to send it to her?”
"But…"
"Alright, brother didn't do it on purpose. He just woke up.”Lin Mo explained.
"Oh. Qing Ping didn't even call you."
"I told her not to call me when I was sleeping.”Lin Mo spoke up for Qing Ping.
"How many more days do you plan to stay?" Lin Mo asked casually.
"Brother, stay with me for a few more days. After the poetry club is over, let's go home together.”Daiyu acted coquettishly.
"Alright, I'll do as you say." Lin Mo nodded.
Two days later, Begonia Poetry Society officially opened. Everyone went to the Fragrant Rice Village. After limiting the rhyme, everyone wrote a poem. Without any suspense, everyone unanimously elected Dai Yu as the champion.
If you like any of the poems you recite, please move to the Dream of the Red Chamber.
Lin Mo and Daiyu stayed for another three to five days before going to Grandmother Jia's place to say goodbye.
"Yu 'Er, Mo' Er, stay a few more days. I can't bear for you to leave.”Grandmother Jia urged him to stay.
"That's right. It's great that Sister Lin is staying at our house. Sister Bao and Sister Yun are also here.”Baoyu looked at Lin Mo and said boldly.
Lin Mo smiled and said," Ancestor, my brother and I are worried about leaving my father alone at home.”Daiyu remembered that Lin Ruhai was alone at home, and she only knew how to play every day, so she missed him.
Grandmother Jia could not say anything more. She could not stop Daiyu from going back to accompany her father because of her.
Baoyu couldn't continue for a moment. He didn't have much of an impression of this uncle.
"Then Yu 'Er, remember to come over when you're free.”
"Yes!" Daiyu agreed.
The two of them bid farewell to Grandmother Jia and left the Jia residence.
"Let's not rush home first. I'll take you around the streets.”Lin Mo suggested.
Before Daiyu could answer, Qing Ping and Xue Yan cheered." Good, good! We haven't had a good walk on the streets since we came to the capital!”
" You two are naughty," Daiyu said, but she immediately changed the topic." But I really want to take a look around."”
"Then let's go." Lin Mo instructed the coachman to go to the most popular street, West Street.
In the morning, Daiyu harvested a lot of velvet flowers, several wooden hairpins, several pairs of bracelets made of rattan, a hawksbill comb made of tortoiseshell, old silver earrings in an ancient style, and so on.
Qing Ping and Xue Yan also had a lot of things in their hands because their Young Master had paid for them. The few of them only stopped after buying until their hands were soft.
Lin Mo brought a few girls to a restaurant for lunch before returning to Yi Garden.
Daiyu said that she was having fun. It was much more interesting than reciting poems, doing embroidery, and playing chess at home every day.
Qing Ping and Xue Yan were also delighted. Especially Qing Ping, who felt even better.
In the evening, the siblings paid their respects to Lin Ruhai, and the three of them ate together.
"The house is only lively when Daiyu is home.”Lin Ruhai sighed.
"Father, I won't go to my maternal grandfather's house in the future. I'll stay at home to accompany father.”Daiyu felt a little guilty.
"Eh…I still have to go out and play. It's not good to stay at home all the time.”Lin Ruhai was just casually sighing.
"Oh, right, in three to five days, the censor's daughter will be coming over as a guest.”
" A few days ago…" Daiyu was about to ask something.
"Don't talk about state affairs. You're just a child.”
Daiyu stuck out her tongue as if she wanted to find out something.
"Mo 'er, help your sister prepare.”Lin Ruhai turned his head and instructed when he saw that Lin Mo was silent.
"Oh, I know."
Unexpectedly, before the censor's Miss Nanxi could come as a guest, an unexpected guest arrived.
"Duke Beijing has graced us with your presence. Sorry for not welcoming you!" Since they were guests, Lin Mo couldn't be rude.
"Has Lord Lin not returned from court?”Shui Rong asked in surprise.
Lin Mo rolled his eyes in his heart. I'm giving you face, but you're still not answering.
"Father only leaves court at dusk every day. If Your Highness has something to say to my father, I'm afraid it's too early.”Lin Mo sounded displeased.
"No worries, no worries. Lord Lin will be back soon.”Shui Rong found a place to sit down.
Someone in the court was well-informed. Not long after, Lin Ruhai returned unhurriedly.
"This lowly official greets Duke Beijing." When Lin Ruhai saw Shui Rong, he hurriedly wanted to kneel and salute.
Shui Rong took a step forward to support Lin Ruhai." Lord Lin, there's no need to be so polite. I'm sorry for coming without notice."”
Humph! You know how to be rude, yet you still come! Lin Mo cursed.
"May I know why Your Highness has come to my humble abode?”Lin Ruhai asked respectfully.
" This..." Shui Rong didn't know what to say.
'This old fellow isn't here to get his hands on my sister, is he?' Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat. He had to admit, Young Master Lin, you're telling the truth.
"No!" When Lin Mo thought of this possibility, he objected casually.
Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Mo in surprise." Mo 'er is usually very steady. What's wrong with him today?"”
Shui Rong immediately knew that Lin Mo had already thought of his purpose for coming.
