Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 244: Even dead fairies can control people

Xue Baochai was delighted when she heard this. "That's great. It will save you from having to make another trip."

When Xiren came back after putting the clothes away, she saw Xue Baochai standing quietly by, looking at the pair of white cranes in deep thought.

On the other side, Jia Baoyu was discussing something with a servant.

Xiren was about to step forward and ask if she could say goodbye, but she saw Mingyan running into the garden, panting, sweating profusely, and with a somewhat anxious look on her face.

Mingyan didn't seem to notice Baochai and Xiren, and ran straight to Baoyu, "Second Master, I...I, have something to do, something big."

His voice was trembling with urgency, and it was obvious that he had something important to tell you.

When Jia Baoyu saw Mingyan's miserable state, he could not help but scold her, "I asked you to go find medicine, not to go to the war. Why are you like this? Where is the medicine?"

Mingyan held her thigh with her hand and panted as she said, "Second Master, I went to see Doctor Hu, but the old man lied to me and said he didn't have any more medicine."

"The last time we used the few he had left."

"The medicine was given to him by the old King of Nan'an in his early years. It was made by some military doctor back then."

Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai were stunned. This means it has become extinct!

How many years has the old Nan'an King been dead? I have never heard that the new Nan'an King has ever been to the army.

Jia Baoyu felt very guilty for letting Baochai be happy for nothing, so he comforted her: "Sister Bao, don't worry, I still have some left."

"You can go back with Xiren and get it later! I can't use it anyway, so it's a waste to keep it there." Baoyu generously made up for his mistake.

Mingyan saw that there were a lot of people around. He looked around and saw that no one had left, so he continued in a low voice.

"Second Master! When I came back today, I saw a man on the street."

"She looks especially like our former sister Qingwen."

"That's why I came back desperately to report the news."

Jia Baoyu's heart was shaken, and the bamboo pole in his hand fell to the ground with a snap.

"Are you blind? Where are you?" Baoyu asked Mingyan anxiously, seeming full of suspicion.

"It was right on the street. It disappeared in a flash."

At this time, Mingyan's expression seemed a little confused again.

Baoyu pulled Mingyan's arm and said eagerly, "Come on! Take me to see." His actions seemed a little impulsive, as if he wanted to confirm Mingyan's words immediately.

Ming Yan was still catching her breath, "Second Master, now I think I might have seen it wrong."

"That person looked so similar that I was shocked. But there was just one difference. Otherwise, I would have stepped forward to recognize him."

"What's the difference?" Jia Baoyu stared at Mingyan, feeling uneasy, expectant, or nervous; he couldn't tell the difference.

Mingyan said, "That person seems to have tied his hair up."

Baoyu was very emotional when he heard this. "Nonsense, you ignorant thing, how could she get married in just a few days?"

"You must have seen it wrong." Jia Baoyu's eyes were burning as if pain was burning.

Jia Baoyu and Mingyan didn't notice Xiren at all. Her shaky body and pale face slowly made her stand still.

On the other side, Xue Baochai saw the expressions of these people clearly.

Jia Baoyu said to Mingyan sadly, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it."

"I will go with you now, to the places you have seen."

"I want to see for myself what your blind eyes can see."

After saying this, Jia Baoyu took Mingyan and walked out, as if he had long forgotten that there were other people around.

The white cranes in the Crane Garden seemed to feel the tension as well. They stood there trembling and dared not make a sound.

Xue Baochai smiled at the stunned Xiren and said, "Xiren, let's go!"

"You know, Qingwen is really capable. She can still control people even after her death," Baochai said with a hint of sarcasm.

"She looks like a demon. Even if she dies, people won't be able to rest in peace, right?"

"This world is so unfair!"

Xue Baochai seemed to be lamenting about life, but Xiren felt the same way.

That Qingwen was spoiled and arrogant, with a sharp tongue. Even after her death, her ghost is still lingering around.

So what if he's just a ghost? He's still dead, isn't he?

The two of them were thinking as they walked, but they also came into a tacit understanding.

After taking the ointment, Xue Baochai looked at the uneasy face, as if she saw her own heart. She said softly to Xiren,

"Xiren, don't worry. The dead will never come back to life. If there is such a thing as resurrection from the dead."

"I think my aunt has always worshipped Buddha, and she must want to see the miraculous things in this world."

When Xiren heard this, her heart brightened, "Miss Bao, you should know the big picture. This Grand View Garden is quiet and peaceful, and there shouldn't be any weird things happening there."

Xue Baochai smiled knowingly. There was no such thing as a monster or a god. It was just someone pretending to be a ghost.

This is something I should talk about with my aunt.

It is not a good thing for Brother Bao to be so idle and indulge in romantic things.

Thinking of this, she went straight to pay her respects to Mrs. Wang.

I am so happy to help my aunt solve her problems.

……

"Second Master, it's right here. That's where I saw someone who looked like Qingwen."

"It flashed by, and in the moment I was distracted, it was gone." Mingyan said, pointing to a street intersection.

"You're not mistaken. How did you see that everyone here is so tightly covered?"

Jia Baoyu and Mingyan came to the street and he looked left and right at the street.

This long street is bustling with people and is the most prosperous area.

But on those gloomy days of December, everyone was wrapped up from head to toe.

You can only tell the gender by the style.

At that time? At that time, Mingyan scratched her head and thought hard, "Oh, right, when she looked up at the sign, her hood fell down for a moment, just for a moment,"

"That profile is so similar. If I hadn't known she was dead, I would have stepped forward to say hello."

"But at that time, I was so frightened that my heart was pounding. I froze for a moment, rubbed my eyes, and then I disappeared."

"I felt that I had to tell Second Master this news, so I ran back and told him the news."

"It seems that you didn't see the person clearly, so you are so flustered."

Jia Baoyu glared at Mingyan as he spoke.

"Which sign? Let's go in and ask?"

"Second Master, that's the one, Qingfeng Teahouse." Mingyan pointed to the eye-catching sign.

"A woman coming to a teahouse? Alone?" Jia Baoyu found it unbelievable and questioned Mingyan.

Mingyan swallowed her saliva, but she still felt something was wrong.

"No, Second Master, he is not alone. It seems that he has guards with him."

Mingyan suddenly thought that there were other people behind the person who looked like Qingwen. Two, four? She couldn't remember.

"You... you idiot, so this must not be Qingwen. She has guards, so she must be a young lady from a certain family. And she has combed her hair, so whose wife is she?"

Jia Baoyu pointed at Mingyan anxiously and scolded, "If you had told us earlier that there were servants, why would we have made this trip in vain?"

"Let's go, let's go back!"

Mingyan also felt very sorry, "Second Master, I am really loyal. I see you are so depressed every day after losing Sister Qingwen."

"If there is really another person in the world who looks like her, wouldn't it be better if you bought her to serve you?"

Jia Baoyu sighed, "It's not what you think. Even if there is someone who looks exactly like her, she won't be her!"

"She is just a little stronger than others, and her words are a little harsher, so some people can't tolerate her."

"Why bother hiring another person?"
