Chapter 329 Lin Daiyu 4
"Cousin you"
Lin Daiyu froze when she heard this, and looked up at him, her eyes full of surprise and shyness, but she still felt that it was impossible, and thought that Li Zhen was joking.
In her heart, Xue Baochai is knowledgeable and talented, and much better than her.
Only someone as outstanding as Xue Baochai is more worthy of Li Zhen.
"Don't make fun of me anymore.
If you keep talking nonsense like this, I will get angry."
She said in mock annoyance.
"Oh, that's all."
Li Zhen sighed.
He was so direct. I felt like I was rejected and was in a bad mood.
"It's getting late, and I'm tired."
Lin Daiyu rubbed her temples. She looked at Li Zhen with a hint of subtle affection in her eyes. "If cousin has nothing else to do, I will go back to my room first."
“Okay, go ahead.
Oh, by the way, let my two maids come in."
Li Zhen said something.
"it is good."
Lin Daiyu stood up and left. She stopped at the door and looked back at Li Zhen.
"Cousin, you should also go to bed early."
"Ah."
Li Zhen nodded.
Lin Daiyu called the maids and ordered, "Zijuan, Xueyan, you serve well."
"Ok."
Zijuan and Xueyan walked into the house.
"Second Master."
The two greeted Li Zhen.
Li Zhen looked at the two maids who came in and felt a little strange. He couldn't help asking,
“Why isn’t it Xiren and Sheyue, but you two?
I just said to let them both come in, why did I call you in?
Did Daiyu hear it wrong? "
What he didn't know was that when Lin Daiyu went out, she was already absent-minded, her mind full of the scene of Li Zhen confessing his love to her.
Her mind was in a tangled mess with all sorts of distracting thoughts.
At this moment, Lin Daiyu appeared at the door again. She explained to Li Zhen,
"When I went out just now, I happened to run into Xiren and Sheyue, so I asked them to go back first."
She looked at Li Zhen with a hint of doubt in her eyes, "Cousin, do you have anything to tell them?"
"It's okay, I can let Zijuan and Xueyan serve me."
Li Zhen felt that it didn't matter, as long as someone was serving him.
"Cousin, don't blame me for being nosy.
After all, Xiren and Sheyue belong to Bao's room, so how can you ask them to serve you?"
There was a hint of reproach in Lin Daiyu's eyes.
"what?
Aren’t Xiren and Sheyue my maids?
This is what you told me.
Who is the Bao brother you are talking about? Xue Baochai?"
When Li Zhen heard Lin Daiyu's words, he was extremely confused and felt very strange.
Lin Daiyu frowned slightly, looking unhappy.
"Cousin, what's wrong with you?
How come you don't even remember whose maids Xiren and Sheyue belong to?"
She sighed and patiently explained, "Xiren and Sheyue are Baoyu's maids. When did I ever say they are your maids?"
"I am not Jia Baoyu?
What you said is very strange."
Li Zhen asked back.
He felt very strange about what Lin Daiyu said.
I don't understand why she suddenly said that.
Is she going to tease him like she did to Xue Baochai?
"You...are you confused in your sleep?
You are Jia Baoyu's cousin, how can you be Jia Baoyu?"
Lin Daiyu's tone suddenly became heavier, and she looked at Li Zhen in disbelief, even with a hint of accusation.
"Ah? I'm Jia Baoyu's cousin?"
Li Zhen was stunned.
He was surprised.
But the person in front of him was Lin Daiyu. He did not refute it immediately. Instead, he began to doubt himself. Could it be that he really had remembered it wrong?
But the memories of the past are still vivid in my mind and cannot be wrong.
"Then why did you say I was Jia Baoyu at the beginning?"
Li Zhen asked back.
He remembered clearly that it was Lin Daiyu who told him that he was Jia Baoyu, but now she suddenly said that he was not Jia Baoyu. What was going on?
"I"
Lin Daiyu was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer, "When did I say you were Jia Baoyu? Cousin, please stop making fun of me."
Lin Daiyu shook her head.
"Etc., etc.
My head is a little confused now.
If I remember correctly, a few days ago, it was you who told me that I was Jia Baoyu's.
Why do you suddenly say, I am not Jia Baoyu anymore?
You said we grew up together or something like that."
When Li Zhen saw Lin Daiyu spoke so confidently, confusion appeared in his eyes again.
I quickly asked.
Could it be that my memory is confused?
Lin Daiyu showed a trace of embarrassment on her face, "Cousin, you may have been confused in your sleep. I meant that you and Baoyu grew up together, not that you are Jia Baoyu."
"what?
Is this really the case? "
There was a trace of confusion in Li Zhen's eyes, and his eyes were empty.
I just felt dizzy and groggy.
The memories of the past few days, when I tried hard to recall them, slowly began to become blurry.
Even he was no longer sure that he had remembered it correctly.
"Cousin, do you want to rest for a while? I'll ask Zijuan to get a doctor to see you."
Seeing Li Zhen like this, Lin Daiyu asked with concern.
"Wait, let me ask you again, since I am not Jia Baoyu, then who am I?
What is my name?"
Li Zhen said anxiously.
Since I can’t remember, just don’t think about it.
He just wanted to know who he was.
"Cousin, your surname is Lin and your given name is Daiyu, your courtesy name is Pin'er, and your nickname is Concubine Xiaoxiang."
She reached out and gently touched Li Zhen's forehead, her eyes full of concern, "How come you don't even remember your own name?"
"My name is Lin Daiyu?!" "Exactly. You are from Suzhou. Your father is Lin Ruhai, a former top scholar in the imperial examination. Your mother is Jia Min, the youngest daughter of the Rong family. You are their only daughter."
"Isn't Lin Daiyu your cousin?"
Li Zhen was even more confused.
What is this talking about?
His head had become a mess.
He felt that his thinking was becoming increasingly dull, and he couldn't figure out a thing even after spending a long time thinking about it.
"It seems you are really confused."
She sighed softly, her face showing worry, "I am your cousin Xue Baochai."
"Are you Xue Baochai?
My cousin Xue Baochai?
No, no.
You are Lin Daiyu, not Xue Baochai.
I even had a quarrel with Xue Baochai."
Li Zhen's head shook like a rattle.
No matter how slow-witted he was, he was still unwilling to believe that the person in front of him was Xue Baochai.
He clearly remembered that he had quarreled with Xue Baochai.
The person in front of me doesn't look like Xue Baochai at all.
"If you keep talking nonsense like this, I'll be really angry!"
She stamped her feet, turned around, and was about to leave.
"Wait, you're not allowed to leave.
Please explain it clearly to me.
Who am I, and who are you?"
Li Zhen shouted hurriedly.
His mind is really messed up.
My head, which had stopped hurting, started to hurt again.
There was even a hint of blurriness in front of my eyes.
The person in front turned back and said to Li Zhen,
"You are Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu's cousin, and I am Lin Daiyu, your cousin.
Are you suffering from some kind of hysteria? Why are you talking nonsense?"
"I am Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu's cousin?
Are you my cousin Lin Daiyu?
I am Jia Lian?"
Li Zhen's eyes became more and more confused, and he just murmured.
He kept repeating the name Jia Lian, as if he wanted to remember this name well.
"If you continue to tease me like this, I will ask Baoyatou to judge the matter!"
Lin Daiyu looked at Li Zhen with tears in her eyes.
"what?"
Li Zhen looked at Lin Daiyu, who was crying out of grievance in front of him, and his eyes became more and more confused.
He asked, "Who is Jia Lian?"
He had no impression of the name at all.
But there seemed to be a voice in his heart telling him that this was his name, he was Jia Lian.
"You really don't remember?"
Lin Daiyu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Cousin Lian is the eldest grandson of the eldest son of the Duke of Rong's Mansion, and is known as 'Second Master Lian'."
"So I am Master Lian?"
Li Zhen asked blankly.
From Master Bao to Master Lian.
"You are Lian's second cousin, and Baoyu is Bao's second master.
You two are cousins, living together in the Rongguo Mansion."
Lin Daiyu introduced Li Zhen carefully.
"Okay, I remember it clearly this time.
I am Jia Lian, Master Lian, and your cousin.
You are Lin Daiyu.
I am Jia Baoyu's cousin.
This time it’s correct.”
Li Zhen sorted out their respective identities, looked up at Lin Daiyu and asked.
"Have you remembered it clearly? Don't forget it again."
Lin Daiyu burst into laughter and gently hit Li Zhen, "If you forget, I will never talk to you again."
"Okay, I won't forget it.
By the way, what is the relationship between Xue Baochai and me?
Am I her cousin too? "
Li Zhen thought of Xue Baochai and couldn't help asking.
"That's right, you and Baoyatou are also cousins.
The three of us grew up together and have a very good relationship. "
Lin Daiyu explained.
"Okay, I remember that.
It seems like I am the oldest among them. I am the eldest grandson of the eldest son of the Duke of Rong's Mansion.
He is the cousin of the three of you."
Li Zhen nodded and began to accept his new identity.
He even felt a little happy when he heard that he had become the eldest brother.
“You are Lian’s second cousin, older than me and Baoyatou.
You are our big brother, and you take care of us the most on weekdays."
Lin Daiyu said to him with a smile.
"Well, then call me brother and let me hear it."
When Li Zhen heard Lin Daiyu say that he was their older brother, he couldn't help but joked.
He also wanted to hear Lin Daiyu calling him cousin.
"You are talking nonsense again."
Lin Daiyu's face flushed and she turned around to leave.
"Ah, why am I talking nonsense.
Am I not your cousin?"
Li Zhen's eyes were filled with confusion and he felt very puzzled.
Why did she get so angry just because she wanted Daiyu to call her brother?
"Although you are my cousin, we are cousins after all. It is not reasonable for a sister to call her brother."
Lin Daiyu explained angrily.
"Then how do you usually call me?"
"Of course I call you 'Cousin Lian'."
"Cousin Lian?
Can't I just call you brother?"
Li Zhen looked at Lin Daiyu and asked.
He felt that calling him brother was more intimate.
"If you keep on making trouble, I'll tell my uncle!"
Lin Daiyu was filled with shame and anger. She stomped her feet, turned around and ran away.
