However, Shen Ajiao knew that she was not like that. Every time Baoyu made a mistake, she would pick him up high and put him down lightly, which caused Baoyu to be ignorant of etiquette and frivolous.
Furthermore, there's a big problem with what Grandmother Jia said. What does she mean by "offended me"?
"Grandma, you're mistaken. It's not that he offended me, but that I've never met your son before. It's not that I offended him; it's that he hurt my daughter!"
I'm really impressed by you, you old fool.
When Shen Ajiao said this, her back was straight and her eyes did not waver at all. She wanted to get justice for Daiyu.
Grandmother Jia looked at Lin Daiyu in Chen Ajiao's arms and called out affectionately, "Yu'er, come to your grandmother's arms."
Lin Daiyu did not make a move, but only glanced at Jia Baoyu to the side, then hid in Shen Ajiao's arms and did not come out.
Grandmother Jia took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, grabbed her cane, and smacked Baoyu's bottom hard. "Ah! Grandmother, why are you hitting me? Ah! It hurts so much!"
Grandmother Jia glared at Baoyu, and after hitting him three or four times, she couldn't bring herself to hit him again. She looked at Daiyu with pleading eyes and said, "Good child, I've already called a disciplinary committee member for you. If you're still not satisfied, I'll have someone drag you out and beat you until you feel better, okay?"
[Trying to scare ghosts by brandishing a big knife on a grave?]
Grandmother Jia waited for Daiyu with hope and expectation. Daiyu lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Okay."
Grandmother Jia was overjoyed and was about to pull Baoyu aside to apologize to Lin Daiyu.
"Take him out and give him another beating."
Grandmother Jia: ...
Jia Baoyu: My sister is actually a femme fatale?!
Wang Xifeng: Well done!
Sanchun: Miss Lin is indeed extraordinary.
Faced with everyone's doubts, Lin Daiyu said, "Grandmother, I know you will blame me for saying this, but I still have to say it. It is right for you to protect your cousin, but it is also wrong, because you did not tell him where he went wrong. Whether you hit him or forgive him, he will not clearly understand where he went wrong."
"Today it's me, and we're cousins, so there won't be any gossip outside. But cousin, you don't know you're wrong. What if you offend the princess and the imperial concubine like this? Will you drag the whole family down with you?"
Jia Baoyu: My sister speaks so earnestly.
"So now I need my cousin's apology."
