Detective in the Red Chamber

Suspicious in his heart, Sun Shaozong first briefly told Jia Baoyu about the Fayuan Temple.

Baoyu wanted to change the subject at first, but when he heard the twists and turns, he was amazed, and shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity that I don't have any fame, otherwise, it would be a waste of time to work under the second brother's hand." Can you witness the demeanor of the second brother solving the case with your own eyes?"

"What are you afraid of if you don't have fame? Wouldn't it be enough to take one in the college exam next year?" Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "If you can pass the exam next year as a scholar, I will allow you to be a master with me, and then don't say go to the scene Seeing me solve the case, I may have the opportunity to lead a team to investigate the case alone."

Jia Baoyu heard this, the goose egg's face was glowing, and he was about to pat his chest, promising that he would be a scholar, but when Sun Shaozong changed the subject, he laughed and said, "But you don't even lose something in your own yard. If we can’t find out why, I’m afraid it’s still far from an independent investigation.”

"Who said I didn't check it out?!"

Where did Baoyu suffer from such a provocative method, he immediately jumped up and said, "The clothes were really stolen by Xiaohong! It was that little maid in my yard, Ma Daopo, who served me in the medicine bath with Qingwen when Ma Daopo was poisoned." that!"

"But right now she has come to Lian Er's sister-in-law, and I don't know what purpose she has in stealing Er Ge's clothes, so I didn't say anything!"

My clothes were actually stolen by Lin Hongyu!

But what is her purpose in doing this?

Was it his own plan, or was he ordered to do it?

Although it was just a piece of clothing, it was unclear what the other party's purpose was, but Sun Shaozong was unavoidably uneasy - it seemed that he had to find an opportunity, Xun Ping'er asked clearly.

But when the two of them chatted a few more words about solving the case, Jia Baoyu suddenly felt a little awkward, hesitating and hesitating.

What's the matter today?

All of them pose like this.

Sun Shaozong pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "You and I are family friends, and now we are relatives. If you have anything to say, you can just say it straight, brother Bao. Why are you still so hesitant?"

"Actually...it's not really a big deal."

Baoyu scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Second brother's house has been very happy for three consecutive times. I heard that second brother got the secret recipe for having children from Qianxiang country, but I don't know... but I don't know if second brother is willing to give up love?"

cut love?

Sun Shaozong's secret recipe for childbirth is hanging under his crotch, but how can he give it up to him? !

But to say no, wouldn't Jia Yingchun's pregnancy give away her flaws?

"This one……"

Sun Shaozong hesitated and said, "I do have a secret formula for begging for a child, but at your age, I'm afraid you won't be able to use the secret formula for begging for a child, right?"

Jia Baoyu is only 14 years old now, although he has already had a good time with the maids, is it too early to ask for the secret recipe for having children?

"Of course I don't use it!"

Jia Baoyu hurriedly cranked his hands like a rattle, turned his head and carefully looked outside the door, and after making sure that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "Actually, this is what the palace meant. Recently..."

But it turned out that Emperor Guangde had received advice from King Zhongshun, and was going to make persistent efforts to have a son so that the country would not fall into the hands of others.

So, among the many concubines in the palace, I selected some with big buttocks and strong bodies-of course, the appearance and figure are also standard. After all, Emperor Guangde is in his 50s, and he usually works hard. Excessive, without a little stimulation, how can it be so easy to be a pillar of the sky?

After this screening, the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun stood out and became one of the four 'seed contestants'.

You must know that Emperor Guangde was greedy for power but not lustful, and he rarely favored many concubines other than the empress, and now suddenly this great opportunity fell on him, how could Jia Yuanchun not grasp it firmly? !

So yesterday I specially sent someone to send a letter to the family, saying that they are asking to find some secret recipes for giving birth to a son—preferably one that does not require medicine, otherwise if there is a side effect, it will be too late to regret.

After receiving the 'good news', the Rongguo Mansion immediately held a family meeting. Everyone brainstormed and discussed many folk remedies, but none of them were really reliable.

At this time, someone thought of Sun Shaozong's head. After all, in order to borrow the plant, Brother Cheap made a lot of publicity, and his brother got the secret recipe for giving birth to a son in Qianxiang Country.

However, after Sun Shaozong heard this, he decided to keep a certain distance from the prince first—after all, once Emperor Guangde gave birth to a son, he would definitely let the prince abdicate and make way for the virtuous. Together with the prince, they were cast idle.

"Then what..."

After making a decision, seeing that Baoyu was still waiting for his response, Sun Shaozong hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The prescription can be given to you, but it's hard to say whether it will work or not--my prescription, it is reasonable to say that both men and women must agree All in good health."

Baoyu asked to clarify that this prescription was just doing some strange movements and did not need to take medicine, and immediately said that no matter what the result was, the Rongguo Mansion would be grateful.

In desperation, Sun Shaozong had no choice but to transcribe another copy of the original yoga atlas for him.

Speaking of...

Imagining the majestic imperial concubine, spreading her thighs and making such shameful movements, it is quite touching.

Chapter 464 Mrs. Wang's Small Abacus

Daoxiang Village.

Naturally, this does not refer to the pastry shop in later generations, but Li Wan's residence in the Grand View Garden.

Different from the splendor and winding paths in other places, this Daoxiang Village is full of pastoral farmhouses, which looks like a countryside, and it is for this reason that Li Wan gave himself the nickname of "Daoxiang Old Farmer".

But this morning, because Baoyu led Jialan to Sun's house early in the morning, and all the girls in the garden were free, and they were afraid that Li Wan would be anxious waiting at home alone, so they all gathered in Daoxiang village to gossip.

Li Wan sat on a black pottery pier, and at first he had a few words to deal with the crowd, but after waiting and waiting for his son to come back, he inevitably became irritable, and his words gradually decreased.

Xue Baochai has always been a caring person. Seeing her groaning and forced to laugh, she was no longer in the mood to greet the sisters, so she got up and smiled and pointed to the outside of the courtyard, "When I came here just now, I saw that the grapes on the shelf were already ripe. , this is the first time grapes have grown in the garden, we can't let the old farmer Daoxiang eat alone - whoever picks it quickly, the sisters can taste it together!"

"I, I, I, I'll pick it!"

Tanchun was the first to agree, and Daiyu and Xichun jokingly said they wanted to go together, so the three asked Li Wan for scissors, a fruit plate, etc., and went to the courtyard talking and laughing.

Only then did Xue Baochai step forward, put a wrist that looked like suet white jade on Li Wan's shoulder lightly, and comforted her softly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, since Master Sun negotiated peace, this matter can be done ——I think it's probably because Brother Bao was greedy for a drink and got caught on the wine table."

How could Li Wan not know that with Sun Shaozong's efforts to facilitate this matter, there should be no twists and turns in Jia Lan's apprenticeship—it's just that as a mother, it's natural to worry about her son, and it really can't be erased.

So she held Baochai's Rouyi with her backhand, and said with a wry smile, "Of course I know that, but I can't wait for a confirmation letter, but I always hold my breath in my heart."

While talking, I felt that Baochai's small hands were warm, delicate, soft and boneless, even the brocades in Ouchi's collection might not have such a delicate touch.

For a moment, Li Wan had some ulterior impulses, wishing he could take this jade-like person beside him into his arms and imitate Sun Erlang's 'rude' methods.

It's just that Xue Baochai is not Suyun after all, and she can't tolerate her "ordering" by rubbing and flattening. Even if she makes some intimate moves, she must first find a suitable reason.

But the reason...

It is readily available!

"Ah~"

Li Wan suddenly sighed quietly, wrapped his arms around Xue Baochai's slender waist, and said softly, "Don't talk about me, let's talk about yourself—although the wife has already made up her mind, but this young man and girl have been rubbing their ears and temples all day long. Yes, if there is an emergency..."

Although she didn't clarify clearly, Xue Baochai naturally knew who the "boys and girls" referred to.

So Xue Baochai shook her head slightly, and said firmly, "Sister Lin is definitely not the kind of person who doesn't know how to love herself!"

She only mentioned Lin Daiyu, but didn't mention Jia Baoyu, obviously she was not at ease with Brother Bao's self-control ability.

Then she smiled sweetly again, "Sometimes in life, there must be something, and there is always time in life. Don't force it. If these two people can really achieve a positive result, I will only be happy for them."

"In front of me, what are you talking about?"

Li Wan sneered, and half-truthfully said, "Let me listen to your heart, if you don't care as much as you say."

As he spoke, he put all his cloud-like hair on Xue Baochai's front, and his left ear was even more impartial, pressing on half of the round circle.

"Yeah~!"

Xue Baochai was startled, and was about to dodge to avoid it, but Li Wan's waist had already been tightly embraced, how could she break free?

Feeling Li Wan rubbing back and forth on her chest, she didn't seem to want to listen to her heart, but as if she wanted to bury her face in her belly pocket, she couldn't help but shyly said, "Sister-in-law, don't do this, you made it... It made me itchy."

But Li Wan said without raising his head, "It's just the itching, it proves that you didn't tell the truth at all!"

The voice was a little muffled, but it turned out that she had already buried her mouth and nose on Xue Baochai's chest. While talking, the hot air from her mouth penetrated through the layers of fabric, causing Xue Baochai to twitch all over her body. pimple.

Xue Baochai felt extremely ashamed, and deliberately pushed her away, but Li Wan was also a woman after all, and she had always been on good terms with him, so why would he start a mess because of some absurd behavior?

When he was in a dilemma, he heard Li Wan say in a muffled voice, "Aside from other things, just because of my sister's good-bred figure, sister Lin has absolutely no chance of winning."

While speaking, Xue Baochai felt her buttocks tighten again, but Li Wan took advantage of the situation and grabbed her firmly. She was so frightened that she quickly called out, "Sister Lin, why did you come back so soon?!"

As expected, Li Wan was fooled, and hurriedly sat up straight, Xue Baochai took advantage of the situation and fled far away, blushing and said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, why are you so, like this today... I must have been drunk by the third sister just now!"

Seeing that Daiyu didn't come back, Li Wan knew that she had deceived her, but he couldn't get close to being a 'rogue' again, so he joked with a smile, "Why, my sister is a little bit annoyed because I broke her mind." ?”

But Xue Baochai didn't speak, went to the door and lifted the curtain, and said without looking back, "I'll go cut some grapes too."

Watching her curvaceous back disappear outside the door, the evil fire in Li Wan's heart gradually receded, but she couldn't help but let out a faint sigh.

Although she had other plans just now, the analysis was not fake. Now Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu are childhood sweethearts, but with Lin Daiyu's body alone, Mrs. Wang will never let Baoyu marry her.

But in today's world, it is the words of the matchmaker ordered by the parents that really play a decisive role.

Therefore, Li Wan had long concluded that Xue Baochai would undoubtedly be the one who could be his sister-in-law with him in the end.

However, in her judgment, in the past two days, there have been some small deviations.

As for the reason for this discrepancy...

In fact, Jia Yuanchun was selected as the "seed player", which triggered a chain reaction.

Not to mention how the girls tasted the grapes in Daoxiang Village.

But at noon that day, Mrs. Wang rarely set down the food and wine, and invited Jia Zheng into the room to talk.

Ever since Jia Zheng decided to take Aunt Zhao to the south, this treatment was the first time in history, and Jia Zheng was a little flattered, so he specially packed up and dressed up, thinking about "an old man chatting with a teenager" .

Who would have thought that when Mrs. Wang dismissed the maid beside her in the room, she asked straight to the point, "Have you ever answered the question about that marriage?"

Immediately, Jia Zheng asked in a daze, not knowing what kind of marriage the question was about.

"It's the marriage between Erlang of the Sun family and Baochai!"

"So that's what you said."

Jia Zheng suddenly realized, and then he said a little displeased, "Didn't you insist on leaving Xue's niece to Baoyu? Back then, you had a quarrel with me about this matter, but now why do you bring it up?" Is this coming?"

In fact, the reason why Jia Zheng asked Sun Shaozong and others to reply to the letter at the beginning was that Baoyu and Daiyu were childhood sweethearts and cousins, so they were more intimate than Baochai.

Unexpectedly, when I came back and talked to Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang firmly disagreed and started arguing. She even said that Lin Daiyu had the appearance of "early death".

After all, although he was angry at Mrs. Wang's unscrupulous words, he really had no confidence in Lin Daiyu's body—no matter how close his niece and daughter were, they couldn't compare to his son.

It's just that after many days, Mrs. Wang took the initiative to talk about this matter again, which really made Jia Zheng a little puzzled.

"This……"

But seeing Mrs. Wang showing some shame, she was silent for a while, then gritted her teeth and said in a trembling voice, "If it was before, this 'golden jade match' would be perfect, but now our eldest sister has a chance... a chance Will you give birth to a prince?"

"Shh!!!"

Jia Zheng jumped three feet high, blew his beard and stared and made a silent gesture, then went to the door and looked left and right to make sure no one had overheard him, and then came back and yelled, "You mother-in-law." Could it be that you are crazy?! How dare you say this nonsense, if it reaches the ears of His Majesty and the Crown Prince, how can the empress live in peace in the harem?!"

Mrs. Wang knew that she had made a slip of the tongue. Now that the word 'Prince' is understood in her heart, she must not let it out of her mouth.

Therefore, I hurriedly slapped my mouth, and blamed myself, "Master, don't blame me, I just speak in front of the master, and I dare not speak nonsense in front of others!"

Jia Zheng was still worried, and repeatedly told her to pay attention to her words and deeds, until Mrs. Wang swore an oath, and then she gave up.

"correct."

Jia Zheng frowned and questioned, "What do you mean by what you just said?"

"It doesn't mean anything else."

Mrs. Wang hesitated and said, "If the eldest sister is up to the challenge and really gives birth to a prince, the structure of our family will be very different, especially Baoyu is the younger brother of the eldest sister..."

"how?"

Jia Zheng stared in surprise, and asked incredulously, "Don't you think that Xue's niece is not worthy of your precious jade?!"

"Right now, it's a pretty good match, but if... but if..."

Although Mrs. Wang couldn't say the whole thing, the meaning was clear and clear.

With the current situation, once Jia Yuanchun is lucky enough to give birth to a prince, it is a certainty that the Jia family will become the leader of the nobles like the Niu family, not to mention the power in the future.

At that time, Jia Baoyu will become a serious uncle of the country. With Xue's family status, it seems a bit not good enough-so Mrs. Wang has been thinking about it for the past two days, and she has a "best of both worlds" idea. ' thought.

"Master, if you haven't talked to the Erlang of the Sun family yet, you might as well delay it with ambiguity." I heard her say, "If the elder sister can give birth to a prince, you might as well go along with the flow to match the marriage of the two families—the left and right masters are also rare. The talented young man here is not much worse than our Baoyu, and my younger sister will not object if I think about it."

The child is really good for her own family. Even Sun Shaozong, a leader of the younger generation, is still inferior to her own son in the eyes of Mrs. Wang.

"If after two years, the eldest sister still fails to give birth to a prince, then just give Bao girl to Baoyu."

I have to say, Mrs. Wang's little calculation is really brilliant.

Jia Zheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he flicked his sleeves after a while, angrily said, "You mother and son have really taken care of all the good things in this world! As soon as your upper lip touches your lower lip, Sun Jia Erlang will delay it for two hours." In [-], if girl Bao promised our family by then, how would I explain to Sun Erlang?!"

"Sun Erlang is now a dignified fifth-rank, and Da Lang will use it even more in front of his eyes. Wouldn't it be worth the loss if he plotted against his family for your little trick?!"

Mrs. Wang's old spirit was there, and despite Jia Zheng's stern words, she stood still.
