Linzhi Gongzi [Red Mansion]

The author has something to say: two in one

After sending Liang Zhuo away, Wen Yishu leaned against the Yuehua Gate in a daze.He was very strangely aware of the ambivalence of Emperor Yongjia's unwillingness to appreciate Liang Yu.

Several sons were raised by him to be alienated, and the one he liked the most disappointed him everywhere.No matter how unwilling Emperor Yongjia was, he had to admit Liang Yu's excellence and his own failure.

But asking the emperor to admit that he was wrong is probably even more difficult than going to heaven.Therefore, the depression in his heart became the source of his continued embarrassment for his son.

But Wen Yishu was unwilling.If he wanted to make things difficult, he would make things difficult for the prince, and he would make things difficult for King Su.Why make things difficult for his family, Liang Yu?

Liang Yu clearly did nothing wrong, so why should he be made things difficult for him?

The more Wen Yishu thought about it, the more depressed he became, he bit his lip until the blood was gone.

After a while of suffocation, Wen Yishu breathed evenly and stood up straight again.Xindao now put Mei Yuzhi's matter first, and don't let this stupid boy get entangled in trouble.Since Liang Yu doesn't want to say these things to me, he might as well just do not know.What will happen after that, it needs to be calculated slowly.

Thinking so, he patted his shoulder which was wet by water drops, and went to call for someone.

Because of many negligence before, Wen Yishu didn't think about finding out the details of Sun Shaozu.So he called the most clever Huashan over, and first went to find out what it was.Within two days, Mei Yuzhi was invited to come to ask him about his situation.

As soon as Mei Yuzhi heard that Yi Shu asked him about this, she immediately became full of fighting spirit.Excited and angry at the same time, he said: "That group of people is really not a good guy! The leader is called Sun Shaozu. It is said that the ancestor has some relationship with Jia's family. When the Rongguo Mansion was still there, he tried his best to curry favor and give money to others. A gift. When the Rongguo Mansion collapsed, they turned their faces and refused to recognize anyone, saying that the Rongguo Mansion owed him 5000 taels of silver and wanted to collect the debt! If they couldn’t get it out, they would ask them to use someone as a mortgage!

You know, brother Wen, what we heard that day is not the first time he went to Jia's house to embarrass him!Just yesterday, if I hadn't gone up to stop him, the gate of Jia's house would have been kicked through by that bastard.Alas, pity their family, they are powerless to fight back. "

He sighed and sighed, filled with emotion.Wen Yishu drank his tea and listened to these words without changing his face.He only raised his head to ask after Mei Yuzhi said that his mouth was dry and began to gulp down tea.

"You come here to do these yourself?"

Mei Yuzhi was stunned, and said honestly, "I don't go all the time, just on my birthday..."

Wen Yishu thought to himself, that is enough.

After thinking about it, Wen Yishu decided to tell the truth.He put down the tea bowl and looked at Mei Yuzhi, "Xing Lan, I know you have a warm heart, so I never stopped you. But, Xing Lan, have you ever thought that you will cause yourself trouble if you come forward so rashly?"

Mei Yuzhi still didn't understand what he meant, and said bluntly: "Since you are kind to others, why would you be afraid of trouble?"

Wen Yishu was choked by him, sighed and said: "Although that is the case, since you are the son of Taichang Shaoqing, you have no reason to contact the family members of criminals. If your father's political opponents know about it, won't it cause trouble for your family? "

Mei Yuzhi was taken aback, and opened her mouth to prophesy, but Wen Yishu raised her hand to stop her, "Don't say that one person does something and one person is responsible, there is no reason for one person to do things and one person to be responsible here."

His words were a bit harsh, Mei Yuzhi's complexion changed, showing a sad look, and said in a low voice, "Did I do something wrong?"

Hearing his confused and incomprehensible words, Wen Yishu couldn't bear to continue talking.Mei Yuzhi is less than [-] now, so she is clearly still a half-grown child.What qualifications do I have to teach him a lesson?

Wen Yishu sighed: "Xing Lan, I'm not blaming you."

"I know," Mei Yuzhi stopped, and withdrew her uncomfortable expression, "What you said just now is correct, I was too careless..."

Before he finished speaking, Huashan ran in with a young man from outside.When the boy saw Mei Yuzhi, he stamped his foot anxiously and tugged at his arm, saying, "Second Master, Second Master, follow me back quickly."

Mei Yuzhi was pulled to stand up, "What's wrong?"

"Hey, Second Master, you have helped the Jia family to speak for the past two days. That's good, people recognize our family, and if something happens, people will line up at our door for help!"

The boy had a troublesome expression on his face, "Second Master, follow me back quickly! The Master is calling you!"

Trouble has always been door-to-door without even saying hello.Mei Yuzhi was always younger, and she revealed her identity while speaking.Today, the person surnamed Sun came to the door again, and the Jia family was so persecuted that they had no choice but to throw down the Mei family and ask for help.

Master Mei didn't expect his son to bring such a trouble to his family, how could he be happy.Holding back his anger, he asked someone to bring his son back.

Wen Yishu pursed his lips, probably because he didn't expect that he had the ability to have a crow's mouth.Seeing Mei Yuzhi's slightly frightened appearance, he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Come on, I'll go with you."

After the words fell, he asked Huashan to prepare the carriage.

The two returned to Mei Mansion together, and saw Master Mei sitting in the middle of the hall with a livid complexion.Seeing his son, he said angrily, "I really didn't know you had such kindness!"

Mei Yuzhi's face turned pale, but she still asked, "Then, where are the people from the Jia Mansion?"

"I'm sending you back," Master Mei glared at his son. "Could it be that someone yelled at the door? How decent!"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Wen Yishu standing next to Mei Yuzhi, and Mei Yuzhi suppressed her sadness and introduced: "Master, this is Yishu, you should know it."

Master Mei naturally knew about his son's friends and had heard of Wen Yishu's name.Seeing a very handsome young man salute to him, his face softened slightly, "Yu Zhi mentioned you several times, but I saw you today."

Wen Yishu saw it as a gift, "I hope Mei Shaoqing will forgive me for coming to the door rashly."

He said again: "I have heard a little about the Jia family. Xing Lan is upright, which is rare in the world. Please don't blame him, Mr. Mei."

"Hey, I don't know this kid's temper." Master Mei sighed while pinching his beard. "It would be fine if he was more organized. But he just doesn't care about the head and the tail. He can't solve other people's troubles, so he brings himself into it." .In the future, if you are in the officialdom, you will be confused, and you will be too young. If you encounter such a big event... hey!"

Master Mei sighed heavily, hating that iron cannot be made into steel.This year's court is not peaceful, he is really afraid of being burned, so he is always careful.How could he have thought that his son would suddenly provoke the Jia family who would shy away from everyone.

Wen Yishu looked back and smiled consolingly at Mei Yuzhi, who was downcast, and said to Master Mei: "If Mr. Shaoqing's surname is at fault, you might as well leave this matter to me."

"You?" Master Mei was a little surprised, and seeing his son staring at Wen Yishu eagerly, he said again, "But you and my family..."

"Speaking of it, this incident can be considered to be caused by me, so let me make amends for the Mei family," Wen Yishu said with a smile.

The so-called one thing more is worse than one thing less, if you can separate your relationship with the Jia family, why not do it.Master Mei thought for a while, then nodded and agreed, "Thank you so much, young master. Yu Zhi, don't hesitate to thank me! In the future, if you cause any trouble, ask others to clean up for you!"

Mei Yuzhi didn't speak immediately, feeling extremely uncomfortable.He hadn't done anything at the beginning of this matter, and he had already failed.He originally imagined that with his own help, the Jia family would get out of trouble, and then Wen Yishu would look at him with admiration, so his expectation was fulfilled.It's just that Wen Yishu's intervention changed the original trajectory.

Thinking of this, Mei Yuzhi couldn't help closing her eyes.

Wen Yishu on the other end had finished exchanging greetings with Master Mei, and was about to go back.Seeing Mei Yuzhi standing aside blankly, he shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm leaving, will you see me off?"

Mei Yuzhi hummed dully, and sent the person outside the door without a word.He was listless.Wen Yishu stepped into the carriage, and lowered his head when he saw people, he couldn't help saying: "I'm going to Jia's house now, do you want to come with me?"

"Ah?" Mei Yuzhi didn't react.

Wen Yishu said: "I heard Zhanyuan tell you about you. You have enthusiasm, but often because of poor thinking or someone's interference, you will end up anticlimactic. Things are counterproductive. Although today's things are similar to before, there is no cure. To the point of salvation. Don't you want to watch this matter from the sidelines?"

What he said caused Mei Yuzhi's heart to move. Before she could speak, she saw Wen Yishu turn around and get into the carriage, leaving a sentence: "I can't let my heart be let down in vain."

As soon as these words fell, Mei Yuzhi's heart was greatly shaken, and without saying a word, she climbed up the car shaft with her hands and feet.

All the way driving without words.Mei Yuzhi huddled in the carriage, looked at Wen Yishu and closed her eyes to rest her mind. She couldn't hold back for a while and asked, "Yishu, why are you helping me like this?"

Wen Yishu opened his eyes and smiled, "I'll help you if you help me, there are so many reasons."

"But..." Mei Yuzhi frowned, still feeling that there should be a reason.

Wen Yishu didn't want to explain further, he was silent for a while, and said: "You just think I'm for myself."

"what for?"

"I feel ashamed with the Jia family. If this matter can be settled, it will make me feel better. The so-called retaliation is what it is."

Mei Yuzhi groaned, and said puzzledly: "But in this world, if you are really entangled, you can't tell anything when you talk to me. Some people feel indebted, while others don't." If you don’t think it’s enough, how can you say it’s clear?”

Wen Yishu glanced at him with a smile, "You do have savvy."

"It's just that I don't think human affection is clear," Mei Yuzhi said frankly, and looked at Wen Yishu again, "Don't you have someone who feels that nothing can be compared to his kindness to you?"

Wen Yishu was taken aback, Liang Yu's name popped out of his mind.

Mei Yuzhi was waiting for Wen Yishu's answer, but seeing that he suddenly froze with a blank expression, she was very puzzled.I wanted to ask again, but I heard him say: "That's really not the case. If I said I paid it off, then I paid it off. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless I don't want to pay it back, just owe it."

I have never heard such a shameless statement, Mei Yuzhi was a little silly, "Then, then you owe a favor..."

"Then there is no other way," Wen Yishu spread his palms, made a helpless gesture, and said with a smile, "Then only two people can settle accounts with each other, for a lifetime."

·

The carriage traveled all the way, and it was okay at first.The road at the back is very difficult, not to mention very bumpy, and the road smells suffocating.It can be seen what state the Jia family has fallen into after their defeat—compared with the previous days, it is really a world of difference.

Wen Yishu was so shaken that he felt uncomfortable all over, and he lost his composure just now. He covered his mouth and nose and said to Mei Yuzhi: "Just because you are willing to run to this place all day long, I also admire you."

Mei Yuzhi smiled, and looked outside, "We're almost there."

Sun Shaozu and his men just arrived here and made a big fuss, smashing the gate of Jia's house.Because Liang Zhuo had informed about it earlier, the soldiers and horses came in time, and did not make Jia's family worse, and persuaded them to leave.

At this time, the Jia family certainly lost its previous momentum, there was not even a gatekeeper at the gate, and the gate just fell off.When Wen Yishu and Mei Yuzhi got off their horses, they only stood at the door when they heard crying inside.

Jia Amnesty was exiled, and the Xing family didn't even know whether the Sun family had sent 5000 taels of silver.In the face of other people's inquiries, she cried: "The master never said a word to me, what kind of money, I don't even see a single hair! Where is there any talk!"

"If you really owe money, you should have an IOU!" A young girl's voice sounded angrily, "He said that our family owed money without proof, and there is no such reason anywhere! This kind of bully , it should be reported to the official!"

"What does the little girl know? Do you think it's so simple to report to the official? If no one goes to take care of it, don't say 5000 taels, I'm afraid we will have to pay back 1 taels!"

"How can my eldest aunt say such a thing? Could it be that the word "Wang Fa" is just for reference? Could it be possible to ask Sister Yingchun to marry that bully!"

There was a moment of silence at the scene, and someone said: "Our family...is getting more and more difficult. Girls always want to get married, and now we don't have enough dowry. If a marriage can be settled, it's okay... ..."

Before the words were finished, a scream was heard: "No, no! I won't marry! Grandpa! Mother! Aunt! Please, please don't let me marry! Please, please!"

Then there was the sound of a group of girls hugging and crying bitterly.

Hearing this, Wen Yishu and Mei Yuzhi couldn't take it anymore, pushed the crumbling door, and saw a person rushing out of it.I saw Jia Baoyu running out with a look of unbearable, pale and extremely weak.When he looked up and saw Wen Yishu and Mei Yuzhi standing outside the door, he couldn't help being taken aback.

"Yi, Yishu..." Baoyu stammered, "Return, and Mr. Mei..."

Wen Yishu smiled politely, pointed inside, "Come here rashly, I wonder if it's convenient to get in?"

Baoyu nodded stiffly, turned around and entered the room, only to hear one or two surprised calls.Then he came out again and invited Wen Yishu and Mei Yuzhi in.When I entered the house, I saw Jiamu, Mrs. Wang, Xingshi and Youshi.Everyone's complexion is very bad.There was also the sound of dresses rubbing against each other. I think those girls just hid behind in a hurry.

When the women saw Mei Yuzhi, their eyes were full of hope, and they obviously regarded him as a lifesaver.Mother Jia looked at him earnestly and said, "I also ask Mr. Mei to save my Jia family's life!"

The Jia family was very excited when they knew Mei Yuzhi's identity.Seeing that he came here specially to make a rescue, she didn't believe his words that the road was injustice, but thought that he had a crush on Yingchun.Otherwise, for no reason, why bother meddling.Just now when Jia Baoyu came in and said that Mei Yuzhi was here, he told Yingchun not to leave, which meant to tell her to come out.

It's just that after being pointed out by Wen Yishu in the car just now, Mei Yuzhi dared to pull out such a misunderstanding, and hurriedly said: "Today I came with Brother Wen."

After finishing speaking, he retreated behind Wen Yishu.

When Jia Mu saw Wen Yishu, she felt very complicated.She vaguely sensed that the downfall of the Jia family had something to do with this kid, but she couldn't say anything.I didn't want to see him, but the man had already arrived, so I had to say: "I didn't expect the two young masters to know each other."

Wen Yishu smiled and glanced at Mei Yuzhi, who was avoiding him, and said calmly, "Xing Lan and I are good friends. Hearing him talk about your residence, I also came to see if there is anything I can do to help."

Although everyone in Jia's mansion didn't believe his words, but he came here with good intentions, of course he had to thank him.But she still kept her eyes on Mei Yuzhi, and only heard Mrs. Xing earnestly say: "My lord, did you think of a way to save my poor daughter? Today, the person surnamed Sun sent someone to the door again! He said that if he didn't pay back the money, he would go to the yamen to sue her." Us, Mr. Mei, please save us!"

As he said, he was about to wipe his tears with a handkerchief.

If it was before, Mei Yuzhi would definitely have responded with one bite, and assured her that she would be saved.But now he wouldn't say that, he calmed down a bit, and asked, "Has Sun Shaozu produced any evidence to prove that your family really owes money?"

All the women looked at each other and said no.

"Since that's the case, even if he goes to sue, he won't be able to do anything, why should you be afraid?" Mei Yuzhi said frankly, and stopped Mrs. Xing's words, "You really don't need to panic, just go to court with him. During this time, I will ask someone to help guard the door, and I will not let that person come to harass me again."

This is very different from what I said before!Before, Mei Yuzhi clearly said that she would solve their worries for the future!Compared with today's words, today is clearly passing by, more like empty talk!

Mrs. Xing was dumbfounded, "Mr. Mei, aren't you, aren't you..."

Mei Yuzhi finally learned how to act stupid properly, "What is it?"

Xing's face was flustered, but he still said the words, "Didn't you like my Yinger..."

Hearing this, Mei Yuzhi's back burst into cold sweat, and she thought to herself that it's good that Yishu and I sorted out the relationship just now, otherwise I would have really caused myself some trouble.

He smiled and said: "Madam, what are you talking about? How can I see that the daughter of your family is raised in a deep boudoir? It's just because brother Wen knows your family and often tells me how respectful your family is. I didn't intend to hear it that day. That man deliberately made it difficult, and wanted to help out in a hurry. He didn't want to cause such a misunderstanding to Madam. Fortunately, it was not spread, which would delay the reputation of the daughter of your family."

Then, he made another salute of apology.

His explanation was naturally heard by the girls hiding behind.Yingchun nestled in Tanchun's arms, sobbing.Since the accident, she has been on tenterhooks.Even if Mei Yuzhi came to help her, she still couldn't get any joy.Mrs. Xing always ridiculed her in private, blaming her for causing trouble, which led to such a disaster.He also said that she was lucky, it was clearly a piece of wood, and some people worked hard for such a piece of wood.

Mei Yuzhi's explanation can be regarded as repaying her innocence.After a lot of grievances, she finally got Zhao Xue, and she burst into tears like rain.

Being so affectionate, Mrs. Xing's face became hot and flushed, and she couldn't say a word.After being glared at by Mother Jia, she stood back in a bored manner, not daring to say a word.

Jia Mu stared at the two young sons, and said slowly: "You two are still young, I don't know the disgust in the officialdom. Now we have no power and power, if we start this lawsuit, we will lose."

What Mei Yuzhi said just now was taught by Wen Yi's book.Just push all the relationship on yourself and tear off the label of "Son-in-law of Jia's Mansion" one by one.As for what to say next, Mei Yuzhi didn't want to answer anything, just listen to what Yi Shu said.

Wen Yishu smiled, and just said: "Why should the old lady be so self-pitying? Although the Ningrong and Rongfu were in trouble, the historians of the royal family are still there. The sage was kind and did not take his anger out on him. No matter how capable Sun Shaozu was, it was nothing more than a small defect in the Ministry of War. .It is only a matter of a few words to deal with him. Besides, your house is not in the wrong. You really don’t need to be afraid. The relationship between relatives is always more real than us irrelevant people.”

He added a few accents to irrelevant people, which made everyone present look unhappy.Jia Mu forced a smile and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Wen to know so clearly."

Wen Yishu also smiled: "Xing Lan is chivalrous by nature, so I can't see Xiaoxiao being domineering and domineering, and innocent people suffer. Under the blood, it is inevitable to be impulsive. It's just going too far, which often causes trouble for both parties. As a friend, I have to help him Let’s just find a way that works.”

His words meant something, a double entendre.Those who should understand also understand.Naturally, they came today to help, but more importantly, they showed their attitude—the attitude of not wanting to get too involved with the Jia family.Just now, Xing Shi was too eager to reveal his intentions, which made Wen Yishu less polite.

Although the matter was originally caused by Mei Yuzhi's boiling water too much, it overflowed the pot and poured it on Jia's family.When he said this, he pushed the responsibility to the Jia family.But Wen Yishu didn't care so much, he just made the meaning clear.

After being stabbed for a couple of sentences, Mother Jia was not too angry, but she looked like she really did, and said disappointedly: "I see, I understand what you two mean."

Wen Yishu nodded, and said: "If you really get involved in a lawsuit, you don't need to panic. Call Baoyu to tell me when the time comes, and Xinglan and I will naturally help each other to the end."

After finishing speaking, he grabbed Mei Yuzhi's hand and said simply: "If that's the case, I'll take my leave first."
