Chapter 127 Daiyu Meets Grandmother Jia Alone
Daiyu held Grandmother Jia's hand tightly and lay carefully on her chest.
Looking at the dying and pale-faced Lady Jia in front of him, an indescribable sadness welled up in his heart.
She called softly, "Grandma... Yu'er, I miss you so much!" As she spoke, tears involuntarily rolled down her cheeks.
Grandmother Jia raised her hand with great effort, gently wiped the tears from Daiyu's face, and said softly: "I never thought that I would be able to see my Yu'er in my lifetime!"
The grandparents and grandchildren snuggled together for a long time, as if time had stopped.
Daiyu silently and carefully tied the longevity stick she had obtained from the temple around Lady Jia's neck.
Grandmother Jia gently took off the pearl pendant hanging on her body and handed it to Daiyu.
Grandmother Jia slowly said, "Yu'er, this is the dowry my mother gave me. I have worn it for so many years, and now I will give it to you.
I hope that when you see it in the future, it will remind you of me, an old woman.”
Daiyu took the pearl pendant slowly with trembling hands and looked at it carefully.
It turned out that this pearl was an extremely precious South Sea pearl, round and smooth, emitting a faint luster.
"Grandma, I thought you let Brother Bao marry Baochai because you didn't love me anymore! But when I became someone's wife, I realized that you had spoiled me like a princess!" Daiyu said while crying.
"Silly child, the person I love the most is your mother, how could I not love you?
But think about it, how can a frail old man like me have the final say on Baoyu's marriage?" As Grandmother Jia spoke, she hugged Daiyu in her arms with all her strength, as if she wanted to protect her once again.
Daiyu wiped her tears and broke away from Lady Jia.
Looking at everything in Lady Jia's room and the maids outside, it seemed surprising that there were so few people to serve her even though she was ill.
It seems that the family is in financial difficulty and is getting worse day by day?
She quickly took out a few banknotes from her sleeve and gave them to Lady Jia.
Grandmother Jia looked at her puzzledly, then shook her head and said helplessly: "Silly child, I have more money than I can spend, how can I use yours.
Don't worry, even if this mansion is ruined, I still have money for medical treatment and medicine."
Grandmother Jia tried her best to stuff the banknotes into Daiyu's sleeves, and Daiyu had no choice but to obey Grandmother Jia's arrangements.
"Go back. I'll feel relieved after seeing you once. Even if I die in a few days, I'll be able to rest in peace.
Once you get married, you are an adult. As long as he loves you, just live a good life. " After saying this, Jia Mu closed her eyes and rested.
"Grandma, I can't bear to leave you!" Daiyu went back and lay down in front of Grandmother Jia's bed, not wanting to leave.
At this moment, Yuanyang came in hurriedly. When he saw Daiyu, he immediately grabbed her hand and said anxiously, "Miss Lin, come with me!"
As he said this, he pulled Daiyu hard and tried to walk out.
However, Daiyu turned her head and stared in the direction of Lady Jia, reluctant to move, as if every step was filled with reluctance and attachment.
Yuanyang tried her best to pull Daiyu out, for she was afraid that if Daiyu didn't leave, she would be discovered.
Zijuan and Xueyan kowtowed to the old lady in the room through the window, and cried, "Old lady, don't worry, we will take care of the two girls!"
At this time, Jia's mother had fallen into a drowsy sleep, but she heard someone calling her outside. When she listened carefully, she found that it was the voices of Zijuan and Xueyan.
Grandmother Jia called softly from inside the room: "Let's go, let's go, don't come back.
Don't forget that you are already very satisfied just by seeing me. You should also persuade the girls to start a new life!"
Zijuan and the others got on the carriage back home.
"Miss, let's leave now!" Zijuan said helplessly as she looked at the Jia Mansion getting farther and farther away outside the window.
Daiyu nodded, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes: "Yes, I am going back to Prince Beijing's Mansion." She sighed softly, her heart full of attachment and reluctance to leave Lady Jia.
Xiangyun, who was standing by, held Daiyu's hand tightly and comforted her, "Sister Lin, we will meet again in a few days."
Daiyu glanced at Xiangyun and said with a smile, "Yun'er, you must be well."
At this moment, the carriage suddenly jolted. Zijuan quickly supported Daiyu and Xiangyun and asked with concern, "Girls, are you all right?"
"It's okay, just a little bumpy." Daiyu shook her head to indicate that she was fine.
Then everyone came to Xiangyun and asked in unison: "Miss Yun, are you okay? Is the child okay?"
Xiangyun touched her belly and said softly: "Don't worry, the baby and I are fine!"
"Yes, but being able to meet the old lady today is a great achievement." Daiyu sighed.
When mentioning the old lady, everyone shed tears of reluctance.
"The old lady is so good to us. Now that we are separated, I don't know when we will see her again." Zijuan said with red eyes and choked with sobs.
"Okay, stop crying, we still have to hurry on our way." Daiyu comforted softly.
However, her eyes were already wet and tears were streaming down her cheeks.
The carriage continued to move forward, and the interior fell into silence.
After a while, Daiyu and Xiangyun both felt sleepy and fell asleep leaning against the carriage in a daze.
Zijuan and Xueyan stood quietly by, looking at the tired faces of the two girls, their hearts filled with pity.
In this way, the group set out on their journey home, each carrying with them memories of Lady Jia and their reluctance to leave.
"Xiao Lingzi, haven't they come back yet?" The eldest wife sat in the front hall of the palace with a fierce look on her face, anger flashing in her eyes.
Xiao Lingzi cautiously walked to the side of the eldest wife and said in a low voice, "Reporting to the eldest wife, I followed them all the way from the hotel to the Jia Mansion.
Seeing that they had entered the Jia Mansion, he was afraid that Fu Jin would worry, so he came back to report the news first.
They should still be in that mansion now!"
After hearing this, the eldest wife's face turned gloomy, and she thought to herself, "Going to the Jia Mansion, could it be that she really has something to do with that Baoyu?"
She suddenly stood up, her eyes determined as she said, "In that case, go ask Concubine Jin and the others to come over as witnesses, so that the prince won't think I wronged her when he comes back."
Xiao Lingzi nodded quickly and turned to leave.
After a while, the concubine and several other concubines came to the front hall. Everyone sat down according to their rank, and the atmosphere seemed a little tense.
Everyone looked at each other, fearing that the disaster would affect them, and sat quietly on their chairs.
Everyone was waiting quietly for Daiyu to return home, and everyone's heart was full of doubts and expectations.
Since the hotel where Xiangyun and the others were staying was not in the same direction as Prince Beijing's Palace, Zijuan asked the coachman to send Daiyu back to the palace first, and then drive to the hotel where Xiangyun and the others were staying.
And so they separated and returned to their respective places.
What Daiyu didn't know was that a storm was about to come.
