Detective in the Red Chamber

But Miaoyu shook her head resolutely, "Since you also said that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black, I believe that as long as they work hard, they will definitely make their children concentrate on doing good!"

While speaking, her pretty face, which was already glowing with a soft light like white porcelain, unexpectedly showed more maternal brilliance.

To be honest, Sun Shaozong really couldn't understand this kind of stubborn Madonna—with this spare time, how much better would it be to marry and have children?

Of course, from the standpoint of the government, he is still happy to get rid of this burden.

"but……"

Just when Sun Shaozong was about to strike while the iron was hot and finalize the matter, Miaoyu showed hesitation again, and said, "But my place is a nunnery after all. If the baby is a boy, I'm afraid it will be very inconvenient."

Although Sun Shaozong felt that it was no big deal to raise a few little boys in the nunnery - at most, it would be enough to put them in women's clothes, and maybe there would be an additional "outlet" in the future.

But Miaoyu's appearance clearly shows that she is not willing to compromise.

So after hesitating for a while, Sun Shaozong said, "Then let's settle the matter of adopting a baby girl first. If a baby boy is born, we will find another way in Shuntian Mansion."

These days, because of the patriarchal thinking, it is much easier to deal with male babies than female babies, so as long as Miaoyu is willing to adopt a female baby, Shuntian Mansion will already be out of most of the troubles.

While speaking, Sun Shaozong led the two of them out of the soft forbidden courtyard, and seeing that they were not far from the back door of Shuntian Mansion, he inquired, "Brother Bao, do you want to sit in my criminal department for a while, or..."

"No."

Jia Baoyu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Brother Wei is also there now, it's really inconvenient for me to go, since sister Miaoyu's affairs have been settled, we'll go home directly—and besides, sister Lin wants to go home tomorrow." For her birthday, I have to give her a good life when I go back."

As he said that, he suddenly slapped his forehead, and said, "I almost forgot, when I was going out, sister Lin specifically told me that I must invite my second brother to our house tomorrow, and have a few cups of birthday wine!"

Kotobuki?

What's so good about a little girl's birthday wine?

Besides, last year he went with Ruan Rong, but this year he was alone as a big man, and he ran to celebrate Lin Daiyu's birthday, which is really unreasonable.

So Sun Shaozong flatly rejected Jia Baoyu's invitation without thinking about it.

Unexpectedly, Jia Baoyu had received a "death order", insisted on asking him to give a promise, and said that if Sun Shaozong refused to agree today, he would come to invite him in person tomorrow.

There was nothing he could do about being entangled by him, so Sun Shaozong could only reluctantly agree, and told Baoyu to call Jia Lian and Jia Qiang, so as not to be too monotonous by himself.

The book does not go into details.

But he said that after sending Jia Baoyu and Miaoyu away, Sun Shaozong went back to the Criminal Division alone, and just sat down in the main hall when he saw Lin Delu coming in from outside holding a wedding invitation.

Sun Shaozong guessed casually, "Is it a post for Weitong's judgment?"

The welcome banquet is usually prepared by the officials below on the day when the new official takes office.

But yesterday Wei Ruolan lost face and found it difficult to vent, so she left early after Xiangwu. Naturally, the banquet could only be postponed to today.

"grown ups."

Lin Delu asked cautiously, "I heard that Han Fuyin will definitely be there tonight. Do you think we should prepare?"

In order to support Wei Ruolan, this Han Anbang is quite cheap - when Sun Shaozong took office, Jia Yucun used to support him, which was considered a high standard, and the treatment that Wei Ruolan enjoys now is obviously much higher than him. few.

"There is nothing to prepare."

But after hearing Lin Delu's words, Sun Shaozong stretched his waist a lot, "Since Mr. Han has come forward, I'm just happy to be lazy and go back to spend time with my wife and children."

Lin Delu suddenly became anxious, "My lord, if you don't go, then I... shall we also..."

He wanted to say, "Shouldn't we also go?", but he thought of the possible consequences of doing so, but he really didn't dare to say it.

"You don't need to think so much, you can eat what you want when you go, and enjoy what you want."

Sun Shaozong laughed and said, "After all, he is appointed by the imperial court as a general judge of the sixth grade. There must be no lack of etiquette. As long as you don't follow him and do things that violate the laws and regulations of the country, that's fine."

"But in case..."

Lin Delu was still entangled, "In case there is someone who is not clear-headed, he should really take refuge in the past..."

"Trust me?"

Sun Shaozong's face was serious, and he scolded, "They are all serving the country. Where does the word 'religion' come from?"

Immediately afterwards, he said, "But then again, since the New Year's Eve, our Criminal Department has been a little slack from top to bottom. I think it's time to catch some typical examples and rectify the atmosphere."

Chapter 233 The Expected and the Unexpected

Three days, three days, three more days!

After another sleepless night, Sun Shaozong calculated that the monk career, which has lasted for more than half a month, is finally about to be lifted—by the way, he can also unlock a few breastfeeding exclusive poses, just in his mind Once it's over, it's a little hard to hold on to.

"Master~"

It really is hard to hold on to yourself!

Hearing this Jiao Didi's timid call, Sun Shaozong realized that he had unknowingly put the little maid who was in charge of putting on the boots on his lap...

Amitabha, sin, sin, really sin!

Although the servant girl was full of anticipation and seemed to be ingratiating, Sun Shaozong still couldn't let go of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old loli - so after silently reciting a few words of the heart-cleaning mantra, he started from there. From the maid's double-breasted vest, she resolutely pulled out her right hand.

It is said that when he wanted to suppress evil thoughts before, he would silently visualize Sister Feng's appearance in his mind to cool off the heat, but when he tried to do this recently, what came to mind was Wang Xifeng's charming facial features.

As a result, instead of suppressing the evil thoughts in my heart, it had the effect of adding fuel to the fire.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong had no choice but to go to the countryside to do as the Romans did, and asked Ruan Rong to learn a few words of pure heart mantra instead.

However, the effect of this heart-purifying mantra seems to be getting worse and worse, because every time he recites the mantra, he will think of the group of nuns in Shuiyue Nunnery...

Hey~

In the final analysis, it is still the pot of weak will.

This extravagant and decadent aristocratic and bureaucratic life is really easy to degenerate!

While spurning this extravagant and decadent life, while stepping on his boots firmly on the servant girl's thigh, Sun Shaozong got up from the bed, and under the service of two servant girls, he did a simple grooming, and then went straight to Ruan Rong's place in the backyard.

Children under the full moon always sleep more and wake up less. Usually, Sun Shaozong goes there early in the morning, and eight out of ten times it is not a coincidence. Today, it is a bit of a face. The little hand is still grabbing.

Sun Shaozong rushed up and put a little finger in the palm of his hand, and the fleshy little hand was immediately clenched tightly, and it was still babbling and shaking.

While teasing his son, he asked casually, "I'll sit in the government office for a while in the morning, and then go to celebrate the birthday of your godsister—is there anything else you want to explain?"

"There is nothing to explain."

Hearing him mention Lin Daiyu, Ruan Rong put the tiger-toed shoes in her hand on the bed, and sighed helplessly, "Even if you really have something to say, it's not easy for the master to give it to her."

After a pause, she said again, "I'm just hoping that the eldest wife will come through the door quickly, and it will be much more convenient for the two families to get back and forth when the time comes."

In the final analysis, it was still a matter of identity. Although Ruan Rong looked like a decent mistress in the mansion, she was not recognized outside, so it was always difficult for Lin Daiyu to come to congratulate her on the birth of her son.

but……

Listening to her saying that she hoped that Jia Yingchun would come in quickly, Sun Shaozong felt awkward in his heart. After all, Jia Yingchun married into the Sun's residence not just to be the "big wife".

Because he was a little guilty about this matter, Sun Shaozong didn't dare to talk any more. He only had breakfast with Ruan Rong and Xiang Ling, and then hurried to Dongkuayuan again.

Today, Yu Qian and the others are about to start the second test. Although he is not going to send the three of them to the entrance of the Gongyuan like in the first test, he still has to go over to encourage them before leaving the door, and enter the "elders" 'Responsibilities.

He looked around like a dragonfly, and although he didn't question him carefully, he knew from his face that Sun Chengye had indeed failed the exam.

For this reason, Sun Shaozong specifically asked the boy to keep an eye on him before and after the announcement of the rankings. After all, it is nothing new for people to commit suicide when they lose the rank these days.

After these things were settled properly, Sun Shaozong called Zhang Cheng into the carriage and went straight to the government office.

Unsurprisingly, when I arrived at the Department of Criminal Justice, I saw Lin Delu and Zhao Wuwei waiting in front of the main room early on, reporting the process of yesterday's "reception banquet" with each other.

That Wei Ruolan was quite depressed last night, but Han Fu Yin put all his strength on Wei Ruolan's head as if he didn't need money, so he was short of blatantly inciting everyone to change his face and start a new life.

However, the officials of the Criminal Division had the most contact with Sun Shaozong on weekdays, and they also knew the methods of this 'Third Master' the most, so no one dared to betray him in public.

As for whether there is anyone who defected to Wei Ruolan secretly, it needs to be carefully screened in the future.

"correct."

After talking about what happened last night, Zhao Wuwei suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "Chou Jianxiao didn't show up last night. I heard that he accepted the post during the day and just threw it away."

It seems that the plan to provoke dandies to fight dandies is still very feasible.

But right now, if they want to directly confront each other, I'm afraid it's too late...

Come to Japan for a long time.

After dismissing the two of them, Sun Shaozong briefly processed a few official documents, and then wandered out of the government office.

As mentioned earlier, Sun Shaozong specially asked Jia Baoyu to invite Jia Lian and Jia Qiang to accompany him in advance in order to avoid being alone in Jia's mansion and appearing too embarrassed.

But when he arrived at Rongguo Mansion, he was welcomed into the west living room by Jia Baoyu, but Jia Lian and Jia Qiang were nowhere to be seen.

"Second brother, don't be impatient, you will know what's going on later."

After Jia Baoyu left such a sentence, he slipped away with oil on his feet.

So in the spacious and ventilated living room, only Sun Shaozong was left sitting on the mat alone, watching the servants of Jia's mansion put plates of delicacies on the table.

I really shouldn't have come!

Sun Shaozong sighed secretly, picked up his chopsticks, and prepared to have a feast first—since no one was talking with him, he had no choice but to gag with food.

But at this moment, the door curtain was lifted again. Jia Baoyu walked in first, supporting the curtain with his hands, but let in a young girl who walked like a weak willow supporting the wind.

"Miss Lin?"

Jia Baoyu actually brought Lin Daiyu here!

This made Sun Shaozong somewhat unexpected. He has come to Rongguo Mansion so many times, and although he has met many female relatives, they basically bumped into them by chance. This is the first time that he really took the initiative to find them.

He hurriedly got up and cupped his hands, "Miss Lin came here herself, do you have something you want me to pass on to your god-sister?"

Lin Daiyu shook her head slightly, and said sternly, "Daiyu took the liberty to come here because she wanted to offer Mrs. Sun a glass of water and wine in person; secondly..."

She bit her cherry lips slightly, and there was a lovely paleness in the pressed tender red, and then squeezed out the second half of the sentence from her white teeth, "Secondly, Daiyu also has something to do, and she wants to tell your lord alone. consult."

As he spoke, his eyes like autumn dew swept to the side, and Jia Baoyu retreated knowingly.

Chapter 234 Willing to Be a Wooden Fish

As soon as Jia Baoyu left, the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward.

Although when Ruan Rong and Ruan Rong mentioned Daiyu, they seemed to be quite familiar with each other, and it was true that they had been on a boat together for more than half a month.

But at that time, Lin Daiyu seldom walked out of the cabin door, so the number of times Sun Shaozong met her can only be described as a handful.

Thinking about it carefully, the two of them didn't even say more than ten sentences.

This kind of relationship seems to be a bit more awkward than a pure stranger - so much so that Sun Shaozong didn't know what to say to her for a while.

Fortunately, Lin Daiyu took the initiative to come to the door today, so it's not like him to start the conversation.

So Sun Shaozong looked at Daiyu anxiously, waiting to hear what she had to say.

But Daiyu bit her lip tightly, stirred the handkerchief again and again, and after a full two minutes of brewing, she asked with vacillating eyes, "Sun...Brother Sun, I heard that you have talked to Bao a few days ago. My brother once said, 'It may not be your turn to say it in the future', but I don't know what it means?"

On that day, when Sun Shaozong entrusted Jia Baoyu with a birthday gift, he heard Baoyu say thank you, and indeed he had said such a sentence cryptically, but he did not expect that he would tell Lin Daiyu.

And Daiyu came to the door for this, obviously because of the meaning implied in the words.

"This is..."

Sun Shaozong hesitated for a while, but still spread his hands and said, "The meaning of those words is about the same as what you think."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Daiyu's face lost three points of color, her body swayed like a weed in the wind, and the autumn water in her eyes seemed to overflow out of her orbit.

But Lin Daiyu held back after all. Although she is a tearful person, she has always been strong. If she is not a person as close as Baoyu, it is hard to see her sobbing every day.

But Ren Gui held back, and when he spoke again, he inevitably had a nasal voice, "Dare to ask... Dare to ask Brother Sun, why did you come to such a conclusion?"

The eight characters of "pear blossoms bring rain, I see pity" are really designed for Lin Daiyu at this time!

The deep voice trembled slightly, and it seemed to be as straight as the heart, making people feel that if the tears were allowed to fall, it would be a heinous crime!

At the same time, I was vaguely looking forward to the tears falling down immediately, so that I could take the opportunity to appreciate her extremely beautiful face!

wrong!

Now is not the time to appreciate beauty!

"cough……"

Sun Shaozong cleared his throat, forced his attention back to normal, and said solemnly, "I know you probably have some speculations in your heart, such as 'I'm helpless and alone'. It can’t be regarded as wrong, but the main reason is not here!”

"Not here?"
