Mother Jia of the Red Chamber is Unkind
Chapter 53
Baoyu naturally didn't understand.
Nanny Fang smiled, anyway, he will understand soon, and she doesn't need to bother to explain.
Seeing Nanny Fang smiling like that, Baoyu felt terrible, so she hurried to ask Mother Jia to forgive her.
"Ancestor, you can punish your grandson for doing homework this time. One hundred times, one thousand times, ten thousand times, whatever the old ancestor wants, the grandson will listen to you. I beg the old ancestor not to throw it to Mount Wutai." Baoyu said. , knocked his head three times, crying with snot running down his nose.
Mother Jia waved her hand, Yuanyang, Pearl and other maids set Baoyu up.After the maids cleaned their faces, Fang sent Baoyu to Jiamu.Baoyu knelt down obediently, and kowtowed again to admit his mistake.
Mother Jia sighed and asked someone to help him sit down again. "You still don't understand? Your problem is not that you did something wrong, but that you did many things wrong. This is because of your personality. If you go to Mount Wutai, you will be able to practice with Master Misery. Don't worry, there will be two or three years With your efforts, you will always improve."
Baoyu's mind was buzzing, except for "two or three years", she didn't hear other voices at all.Did the old ancestor tell him to die? After two or three years of eating fast and praying in the temple, let alone a woman, I guess he couldn't even see a handsome man.
Baoyu was unwilling for thousands of times, and begged Jia Mu several times to forgive him.Mother Jia didn't give him a chance at all, and sent him out directly.Baoyu was not reconciled, so he went to ask his sister-in-law Li Wan to intercede.Li Wan promised to save time for Jia Mu in the evening, but he didn't say a word.
Baoyu immediately thought of Uncle She, and went to look for him in the dark.
Jia Amnesty grinned, expecting Baoyu, that fart kid, to have a day too!
In the past, Jia She saw that he was favored by the old lady, but his son Lian'er was not valued at all.It doesn't matter that Baoyu is only favored. The snacks and food that the old lady rewarded him in the past, he got several times the share, and no one else could get it.He didn't know how to honor these elders, instead he gave all the things to the maids to enjoy.As a result, the stuttering of their masters is not as good as that of maids.
Jia Amnesty has complained to him for a long time, will he help him?Unless he has a brain twitch!
Jia Amnesty would not shirk that trick, and directly dismissed Baoyu's delusions. "You do it yourself, whoever you want to win. Go, don't implicate us!"
Baoyu's face was so painful that he covered his face and ran away crying.
Madam Xing looked at him like that and sneered.Jia Amnesty also laughed, and said mockingly, "Look at those two steps he ran, he looks like a bitch."
The next day, Baoyu will be sent away.
Baoyu originally wanted to wait for her parents to write a letter on the grounds that she was in a hurry to prepare.Unexpectedly, when he was invited early in the morning, he was forcibly waited on, dressed, and sent to the car.Only then did he realize that the work he had planned had already been done.Baoyu scratched his fingers to figure it out, and the old lady asked someone to prepare luggage for him when Sun Shaozu's incident was about to start.
It turned out that the old lady had already made up her mind to send him away.
Baoyu was sad and sad, and fell asleep crying.
After half a month, Baoyu was finally sent to Mount Wutai with constant failures along the way.The twenty servants accompanying him finally breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Second Master Bao would run away halfway.Several times, Second Master Bao made a fuss about going to Shaanxi to find his parents. They were so frightened that they took turns guarding Second Master Bao day and night in groups of five, so that today's safe delivery could be achieved.
Master Miku had already arranged for two young monks to pick him up at the foot of Mount Wutai.Zhou Rui smiled and presented specialties of the capital, various gifts, and 3000 taels of cash.
Monks also need to live, and big donors like Rongfu should naturally pay attention to them.
Master Abbot specially received Zhou Rui alone in the meditation room with Master Miku.The abbot stroked his long gray beard and asked Zhou Rui with a smile, "Does your master have any special requirements?"
"Here is a letter from my old lady, please read it." Zhou Rui smiled and presented the letter.
The abbot glanced at it for a while, frowned slightly, and handed it over to his junior brother, Master Misery.After careful review, Master Misery nodded to the abbot.The abbot smiled with satisfaction, and said to Zhou Rui: "We have received the old lady's words, please send a message back to the benefactor, please rest assured."
Zhou Rui nodded, and said before leaving: "Second Master Bao has been spoiled by spoils in the mansion, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear hardships at first and will run away, so please ask Master Miku to take care of him and keep an eye on him."
Master Miku nodded and said with a smile: "You think carefully, don't worry, your master has already mentioned this matter in the letter, and the poor monk will pay attention to it."
Zhou Rui praised the old lady's ability to predict things like a god, and went away with peace of mind.
Baoyu was led by the little monk into a wing room, except for a bed, a wardrobe and a table, there was no decoration, not even a cup for drinking tea.Baoyu grabbed the little monk and asked carefully.Hearing what he said, the little monk looked at him strangely, and said with a contemptuous smile: "Teacup? You think this place is a palace. If you want to drink water, go to the kitchen water tank to drink water, or go to the river behind the mountain Drink while you are full."
Baoyu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and couldn't believe it: "Go to the river to drink water?"
"Why, the water in the kitchen is also brought back from the river every morning by us. It tastes the same." The little monk looked Baoyu up and down with a smile, stretched out his hand and squeezed the material of his clothes, "Yo, what a rich family! Yes. You are learning from the master of misery, tsk tsk, you will suffer in the future."
Baoyu was puzzled, and looked at him wonderingly: "What do you mean by that, will I be different from you in the future?"
"As expected of a rich family, smart!" The little monk smiled, raised his eyebrows and asked Baoyu meanly, "Do you know what 'asceticism' is? Ascetic monks must endure things that ordinary people consider painful, so as to exercise their endurance and patience. Liberation. Don't talk about drinking river water, you need to drink piss in ragged clothes!"
Baoyu was so frightened that she froze all over, and said with wide eyes, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Whoever talks nonsense has a rotten tongue!" The little monk gave Baoyu a sympathetic look, stuck out his tongue stubbornly, and ran away.
Baoyu stayed where he was for a long time, and was so frightened that his whole body broke out in cold sweat.no!He doesn't want to stay here as an ascetic, he will go back soon.Baoyu came to his senses and ran out to find Zhou Rui.Before Nai He could leave the hospital, he was forced back by two strong monks at the door.Baoyu was stuck in the room. He couldn't beat Monk Wu, so he came to the door and called for someone to save him, shouting non-stop.
After a while, Master Suffering came with people.
Baoyu looked behind him worrying, trying to find a familiar figure, but she didn't see it. "Where's Zhou Rui, where are my servants?"
"Benefactor Zhou has taken people away from the temple." Master Miku said slowly, squinting his eyes to look at Baoyu by the way.
Baoyu didn't believe it, so he went out to see it.
Master Miku waved his hand and let Baoyu go, "Go and check it out, it's okay if you give up. You are allowed to go, but tonight you have to bring three buckets of water from the bottom of the mountain."
It's just three buckets of water!
Baoyu thought it was hard work, but he could do it.He simply agreed, and went to call someone.Two monks followed behind him and followed Baoyu to the gate of the temple.Baoyu stood there looking down, and sure enough, he saw a familiar carriage galloping on the road in the distance.
Zhou Rui and the others really left, leaving him here alone!
Baoyu was alone and helpless, sitting on the ground and crying loudly.
Master Miku came later, watched Baoyu making noise quietly, and judged him in his heart.She is so pampered, she really deserves to be trained.Fortunately, this child is not too old. Although it will take some time at the age of twelve or thirteen, there is still time.
Baoyu was tired from the journey, but he couldn't rest. He had to go down the mountain to fetch water after being guarded by two strong senior brothers.It was only three buckets of water, Baoyu thought he would make three trips at most.Unexpectedly, the bottom of the bucket in the temple is pointed, and there is no rest on the road, and it must be lifted up the mountain in one breath.Baoyu is delicate and fleshy, so how could she bear this? Every time she ran to the middle of the mountain, she couldn't lift it. She wanted to take a rest, but when the bucket hit the ground, it would not be stable, and the water would spill.After tossing and tossing until dusk, Baoyu didn't master a little skill. By the time he filled two buckets of water, it was already dark.The last bucket of water was even more difficult to carry, the road was difficult to walk at night, he stumbled, but the two stinky monks didn't give him a lamp to light him, so he let him walk in the dark, Baoyu finally filled the three buckets of water crying. But it was already the middle of the night.
Master Miku wrote quietly in the meditation room, and finally waited for the news at Yinshi.He didn't speak, just turned around and wrote a big word "stupid" on the rice paper on the table.
The little monk shared the same room with Baoyu, and he urged Baoyu to sleep quickly, and he had to get up at Maozheng tomorrow.
Once Baoyu calculated, he could sleep for an hour!
He was already tired from the journey, and he was so tired that he was about to peel his skin after harvesting rice early in the morning, so he was given water for an hour.Baoyu couldn't bear it, cried and cried, and quit.
The little monk laughed at him: "What do you mean, you will have to suffer in the future. Tell you, when Master Suffering was an ascetic monk, he slept on a bed full of nails, walked hot coals, and did all kinds of hard things..."
On the same day, Mrs. Wang in Shaanxi received a distress letter from her son Baoyu.Mrs. Wang shook her hands, and sent someone to the yamen to invite Jia Zheng back.
When Mrs. Wang saw Jia Zheng, she burst into tears, "Master, our son got into trouble. I don't know how the old lady will deal with her. No, I have to go back and save him."
Jia Zheng looked at the letter and frowned, thinking that it was wrong for Baoyu to introduce Yingchun to Sun Shaozu without authorization.But Yingchun is nothing, it's just a concubine's daughter's family, it shouldn't be a big deal if it can cause any big trouble. "It's good to teach him a lesson, and the old lady can't punish him severely. It's nothing more than doubling his homework, which is also beneficial to him."
Mrs. Wang was still uneasy, but she gave up.As soon as Jia Zheng's words fell, someone from the other side of the yamen urged him to go quickly.In the evening, Jia Zheng came back with a sullen face and scolded Mrs. Wang severely.
"It's all your fault. You asked me to come back for something serious. It happened that the magistrate called me, but he couldn't find anyone, so he scolded me! You, I planned to ask him to write a few good words in the next year and transfer me back to Beijing. This time is good, because of you ignorant woman, we have to stay here for three years, or even longer!"
Mrs. Wang didn't know that this would happen, she was extremely wronged, but she could only accept Jia Zheng's reprimand.
The next day, another letter came from the capital.This time it was Madam Wang who stayed in Rongfu, and asked the caravan to give her a letter that came soon.Mrs. Wang opened the letter to see Baoyu's results, cried and wiped away her tears, and urged people to go and invite Jia Zheng back.
After a while, the boy came back alone.Jia Zheng thought she was messing around and ignored her.
Mrs. Wang was aggrieved and waited until midnight before seeing Jia Zheng who came back drunk. She was in a hurry and patted the letter into Jia Zheng's hand. "Our son has been sent to Mount Wutai!"
"What?" Jia Zheng was half awake, staring blankly at Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang was angry when she saw Jia Zheng's disappointment.If it was said that she was not a beautiful woman in her natal family back then, why would she choose to marry him, such a worthless person, and spend her whole life as a member of the Ministry of Industry, but when the time comes, she will be sent to the Northwest to be an official.This man is so useless that he doesn't even dare to say a harsh word in front of his wife.
A woman's life will be ruined if she marries the wrong person!
Mrs. Wang lamented that she was blind at the time.With tears in his eyes, he wrote a letter with fierce words, accusing Jia's mother of inappropriate behavior.After she finished writing, she turned to look at the sluggish Jia Zheng and pushed him. "Master, it's time for you to say something."
Jia Zheng glanced at Mrs. Wang, sighed, and took up his pen to write the next article.Mrs. Wang folded the letters from the two of them and put them in an envelope, and asked someone to deliver the letters overnight.After Mrs. Wang delivered the letter to Zhou Rui's family, she suddenly froze, thought for a while, raised her head and said to Zhou Rui's family: "I think I should go back."
Zhou Rui's family hurriedly nodded, wiped away tears and said, "I can't help but feel sour when I think of Second Master Bao suffering in Wutai Mountain. Second Master was raised by his wife since he was a child, so delicate and tender, how can he bear this crime? !"
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth with hatred, and threw the letter into a ball on the ground. "Prepare the car and leave tomorrow."
"Where is the master?" Zhou Rui's family asked.
Mrs. Wang thought for a while, and kept a beautiful maid named Zhang Qiaoyan beside her.That night Zhou Rui's family coaxed her to drink Juezi soup, and Mrs. Wang mentioned her as Jia Zheng's aunt.
"I absolutely can't stay here with the master, and I can't let go of family affairs. Think about it, if we are really not in Rongfu for three to five years, Baoyu will be sent away, and the second room is vacant, then Rongfu will not be full again." It’s the eldest brother and the others’ world. When the old lady gets older, she can only remember the friendship with her predecessors. After she’s a hundred years old, I’m afraid we won’t be able to share anything.”
Mrs. Wang grabbed Jia Zheng's hand and advised him not to worry about her harsh words, which were not rude.Seeing Jia Zheng wavering, Mrs. Wang smiled and recommended Zhang Qiaoyan to Jia Zheng.In the past, when Jia Zheng came to her room, he would take a few extra glances at this girl.Zhang Qiaoyan's beauty is indeed above the others, with some charming potential.Mrs. Wang said she would keep her by Jia Zheng's side.
Jia Zheng is not a womanizer, but he also has the desire of a normal man.Although people are old, they also like young and beautiful women.Jia Zheng saw that Qiaoyan was very agreeable, so he had no complaints with Mrs. Wang and allowed her to go.
On the way back, Madam Wang hurried to Mount Wutai.Sure enough, she saw her son, who lost a lot of weight, and was still rolling in the muddy pond just before seeing her.Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she burst into tears, touched her son's thin cheek, and burst out emotionally.
Baoyu also cried. He missed his family very much and begged Mrs. Wang to take him back.Mrs. Wang went to inform Baoyu's master, Master Miku.Master of Misery did not agree to let him go.Mrs. Wang became angry, threatened and lured him, and even moved out her eldest brother Wang Ziteng.
The miserable master had no choice but to hand over a contract to see with Mrs. Wang. "This is signed and pledged by the son himself, and the abbot of our temple is the witness, so it cannot be faked. There is also a letter from the old lady in your house, which cannot be handed over."
Mrs. Wang looked carefully, and sure enough there was Baoyu's signature and painting.Baoyu was dumbfounded when he saw it, and shook his head helplessly.Mrs. Wang took Baoyu and asked him why in private.
Baoyu regretted and said: "I didn't expect this to happen. Three days ago, the master suddenly asked me to go, relieved me, and told me that I only need to do the whole set of things he taught. I don't have to wait three or two years, and I can be released in just one year." Go back. The premise is that I voluntarily put a pledge on the contract. I heard that it would be a cheap thing to change from one year to three years, so I did it."
"Confused! This must be your grandmother's plan." Mrs. Wang patted Baoyu's arm, crying and cursing, "Even the Heavenly King and I can't save you this time. The old lady sent you here, I can say that you don't want to, It is still possible to snatch you back from the monk. Now you have made a bet on your own, and the trouble is getting bigger, but we don’t care about it. I’m afraid that if I take you back now, she will be punished more severely.”
Thinking of Jia Mu, Baoyu shivered and shook his head.Although the life in Mount Wutai was hard, it was difficult for him to adapt at first, and he even didn't want to live anymore.But after a long time, he found that there was an unexpected freedom here.Not too bad!
"I'd better stay here, mother, take care." Baoyu sent Mrs. Wang off, and was called to practice by his fellow disciples.
Mrs. Wang was very shocked when she noticed the change in her son. She stayed at the gate of the mountain and forgot her son surrounded by monks, feeling a lot of emotion.She always felt that the person who left just now was no longer like his son.
After all, Mrs. Wang hurried back to Rong Mansion by herself.When she returned to the mansion, the entire Rong Mansion was welcoming guests.Mrs. Wang did not send someone to notify her of her return in advance, so she knew that the person who welcomed her would not be her.
Mrs. Wang came back without notice on purpose, just to see Jia Mu's reaction.She walked quickly into Jiamu's courtyard with a sense of momentum.
Mother Jia and the Sanchun sisters are happily evaluating Daiyu's clothes.Everyone agreed that it was too plain.At this moment, the servant girl suddenly sent word that Mrs. Wang had come.Everyone was startled, the news came suddenly, and they all looked at Jiamu in bewilderment.
Mother Jia had a smile on her lips, just like usual, it seemed that no earth-shattering news could shock her.Fortunately, the old lady had a good concentration. Under her guidance, everyone quickly calmed down their surprise.So when Mrs. Wang entered the room, there was no abnormality on the faces of everyone.Mrs. Wang didn't see any abnormalities in anyone, as if she had never left Rongfu, she was extremely disappointed.
Mother Jia looked at Mrs. Wang with a smile, "I'm back."
Mrs. Wang bowed her head in response, saluting on the face, but her heart was turbulent.
Daiyu came over with another set of clothes.All eyes fell on Daiyu.Daiyu changed into a jacquard silk gown with a straight collar and a long brocade gown, and a deep purple gold bottomed butterfly skirt with flower cutouts.Everyone exclaimed that she was beautiful, this gorgeous but not high-profile body was just right for Daiyu.
Daiyu blushed and hid behind Jiamu shyly.
Mrs. Wang laughed foolishly, and praised Daiyu against her will, but her heart was so cold that she died.She just came back from a long journey, but everyone didn't care about her, they just paid attention to a girl who always lived in Rongfu.It's so irritating!
Jia Mu smiled and said to La Daiyu, "It's very suitable. I will introduce you to see the old man of the Sun family later. He will definitely be satisfied with you."
Daiyu nodded with a smile.
At this time, someone from outside said: "Old lady, the people are here, the Eldest Master accompanied Uncle Lin to meet their father and son in Rongxi Hall."
Mother Jia nodded.
Mrs. Wang turned her head and asked who Li Wan was.Li Wan replied to her, "Today is the day when the Sun family and Mrs. Lin met. The grandpa of the Sun family and the eldest grandpa came all the way from Zhejiang."
The Sun family?Look at each other?What, is Lin Ruhai going to continue!Mrs. Wang was startled, she stared at Daiyu with a spring complexion, and turned to Jiamu who looked joyful.
Confused, the old lady is really confused!
Mrs. Wang sweated on her brow and clenched her fists.She never expected that such a big incident would happen in the mansion when she was not at home for more than half a year.
Mrs. Wang didn't remember any famous Sun family in Shaoxing, so she turned to ask Li Wan about the person Lin Ruhai saw.Li Wan smiled and explained to Mrs. Wang that the woman was the lady invited by the old lady after the year, named Sun Muqing.
"What, it's a lady." Mrs. Wang almost gritted her teeth.
"Uncle Lin is the continuation, so you don't have to be the same family. What the old lady means, you must find a girl with a good personality and good character. Mr. Sun is both talented and beautiful, and the age is just right. The most important thing is that she loves Daiyu. To be a support for Daiyu. That's why the old lady fell in love with her." Li Wan explained.
Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes and laughed a few times, "It's too fast to decide, it's okay if it's as good as you said."
Li Wan could hear what Mrs. Wang meant, but what did she have to do with the Lin family if she was dissatisfied?This marriage is not decided by the old lady alone, the most important thing is that the Lin family is willing.
Li Wan looked at Daiyu who was smiling all over her face, and seeing that she attached so much importance to meeting Mr. Sun's family, she knew how important this lady was to her.
The eldest lady of the Sun family came first, dressed in fragrant and luxurious clothes, with heavy incense, and red hairpins, jade hairpins, and golden steps on top of her head.Sun Muqing greeted her sister-in-law and entered the door with a smile on her face, but the smile was slightly forced.
Mother Jia looked at the eldest wife of the Sun family, she didn't seem to be from a scholarly family, and her words and deeds were a little vulgar.At the beginning, Sun Muqing was able to accept Jiamu's invitation to come to Beijing, because the eldest wife of the Sun family pushed Sun Muqing away.At this moment, without Sun Muqing's special explanation, Mother Jia already knew about the discord between their aunts and sisters-in-law.
The eldest wife of the Sun family bowed to Jiamu, then looked at all kinds of valuable furnishings in the hall, and in her heart she calculated how much these things were worth in total.She smiled so much that her face was dripping with oil, she turned her head and patted Sun Muqing's hand. "My good sister, you are really promising. Being able to teach in a big family like the capital is really giving our grandparents face!"
Sun Muqing smiled, looked at Jiamu apologetically, and nodded in silence.
After Jia Mu introduced everyone, she invited her aunt and sister-in-law to sit down, and everyone drank tea for a while.Jia Amnesty brought the Sun's father and son to visit Jia's mother.Mother Jia looked at the father and son. The old man was kind and kind, and he had the demeanor of an old Confucian. The youthful aura was a bit lacking, but he was also a well-behaved scholar.
Sun Muqing's father and eldest brother are still good.
After the Sun family father and son met Daiyu, it was inconvenient to chat, so they were led by Jia She to the front yard for a banquet, accompanied by Lin Ruhai.The back house on Jiamu's side can only entertain Mrs. Sun's family alone.
After seeing off the guests in the evening, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Li Wan and Wang Xifeng stayed here on purpose to discuss today's meeting with Jia Mu.
Wang Xifeng looked at her words and saw that Jia's mother was in a good mood, so she dared to say something harsh, "The father and son of the Sun family look good, but this Mrs. Sun's family is really a bit—" Wang Xifeng didn't say anything, just made a face Show the bitter face to Jia Mu.
Mother Jia was amused by her antics, raised her eyebrows and said to Wang Xifeng, "Her natal family is a merchant, so it is reasonable to say that she cannot enter the Sun's house. It is because her father saved the old man of the Sun's family back then. Worse, but also loves to calculate. I heard that Mr. Sun was often excluded by her sister-in-law before. So you need to be cautious when marrying a wife, background, family education, etc. are too important."
Mrs. Wang was particularly harsh when she heard these words, and she looked at Jia Mu dissatisfied.What does the old lady mean by this, and who is she talking about!
Nanny Fang smiled, anyway, he will understand soon, and she doesn't need to bother to explain.
Seeing Nanny Fang smiling like that, Baoyu felt terrible, so she hurried to ask Mother Jia to forgive her.
"Ancestor, you can punish your grandson for doing homework this time. One hundred times, one thousand times, ten thousand times, whatever the old ancestor wants, the grandson will listen to you. I beg the old ancestor not to throw it to Mount Wutai." Baoyu said. , knocked his head three times, crying with snot running down his nose.
Mother Jia waved her hand, Yuanyang, Pearl and other maids set Baoyu up.After the maids cleaned their faces, Fang sent Baoyu to Jiamu.Baoyu knelt down obediently, and kowtowed again to admit his mistake.
Mother Jia sighed and asked someone to help him sit down again. "You still don't understand? Your problem is not that you did something wrong, but that you did many things wrong. This is because of your personality. If you go to Mount Wutai, you will be able to practice with Master Misery. Don't worry, there will be two or three years With your efforts, you will always improve."
Baoyu's mind was buzzing, except for "two or three years", she didn't hear other voices at all.Did the old ancestor tell him to die? After two or three years of eating fast and praying in the temple, let alone a woman, I guess he couldn't even see a handsome man.
Baoyu was unwilling for thousands of times, and begged Jia Mu several times to forgive him.Mother Jia didn't give him a chance at all, and sent him out directly.Baoyu was not reconciled, so he went to ask his sister-in-law Li Wan to intercede.Li Wan promised to save time for Jia Mu in the evening, but he didn't say a word.
Baoyu immediately thought of Uncle She, and went to look for him in the dark.
Jia Amnesty grinned, expecting Baoyu, that fart kid, to have a day too!
In the past, Jia She saw that he was favored by the old lady, but his son Lian'er was not valued at all.It doesn't matter that Baoyu is only favored. The snacks and food that the old lady rewarded him in the past, he got several times the share, and no one else could get it.He didn't know how to honor these elders, instead he gave all the things to the maids to enjoy.As a result, the stuttering of their masters is not as good as that of maids.
Jia Amnesty has complained to him for a long time, will he help him?Unless he has a brain twitch!

Madam Xing looked at him like that and sneered.Jia Amnesty also laughed, and said mockingly, "Look at those two steps he ran, he looks like a bitch."
The next day, Baoyu will be sent away.
Baoyu originally wanted to wait for her parents to write a letter on the grounds that she was in a hurry to prepare.Unexpectedly, when he was invited early in the morning, he was forcibly waited on, dressed, and sent to the car.Only then did he realize that the work he had planned had already been done.Baoyu scratched his fingers to figure it out, and the old lady asked someone to prepare luggage for him when Sun Shaozu's incident was about to start.

They were so frightened that they took turns guarding Second Master Bao day and night in groups of five, so that today's safe delivery could be achieved.
Master Miku had already arranged for two young monks to pick him up at the foot of Mount Wutai.Zhou Rui smiled and presented specialties of the capital, various gifts, and 3000 taels of cash.
Monks also need to live, and big donors like Rongfu should naturally pay attention to them.
Master Abbot specially received Zhou Rui alone in the meditation room with Master Miku.The abbot stroked his long gray beard and asked Zhou Rui with a smile, "Does your master have any special requirements?"

Zhou Rui praised the old lady's ability to predict things like a god, and went away with peace of mind.
Baoyu was led by the little monk into a wing room, except for a bed, a wardrobe and a table, there was no decoration, not even a cup for drinking tea.Baoyu grabbed the little monk and asked carefully.Hearing what he said, the little monk looked at him strangely, and said with a contemptuous smile: "Teacup?

Baoyu was so frightened that she froze all over, and said with wide eyes, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Whoever talks nonsense has a rotten tongue!" The little monk gave Baoyu a sympathetic look, stuck out his tongue stubbornly, and ran away.
Baoyu stayed where he was for a long time, and was so frightened that his whole body broke out in cold sweat.no!He doesn't want to stay here as an ascetic, he will go back soon.Baoyu came to his senses and ran out to find Zhou Rui.Before Nai He could leave the hospital, he was forced back by two strong monks at the door.Baoyu was stuck in the room.

"Benefactor Zhou has taken people away from the temple." Master Miku said slowly, squinting his eyes to look at Baoyu by the way.
Baoyu didn't believe it, so he went out to see it.
Master Miku waved his hand and let Baoyu go, "Go and check it out, it's okay if you give up. You are allowed to go, but tonight you have to bring three buckets of water from the bottom of the mountain."
It's just three buckets of water!
Baoyu thought it was hard work, but he could do it.He simply agreed, and went to call someone.Two monks followed behind him and followed Baoyu to the gate of the temple.Baoyu stood there looking down, and sure enough, he saw a familiar carriage galloping on the road in the distance.
Zhou Rui and the others really left, leaving him here alone!
Baoyu was alone and helpless, sitting on the ground and crying loudly.
Master Miku came later, watched Baoyu making noise quietly, and judged him in his heart.She is so pampered, she really deserves to be trained.Fortunately, this child is not too old. Although it will take some time at the age of twelve or thirteen, there is still time.
Baoyu was tired from the journey, but he couldn't rest. He had to go down the mountain to fetch water after being guarded by two strong senior brothers.It was only three buckets of water, Baoyu thought he would make three trips at most.Unexpectedly, the bottom of the bucket in the temple is pointed, and there is no rest on the road, and it must be lifted up the mountain in one breath.Baoyu is delicate and fleshy, so how could she bear this? Every time she ran to the middle of the mountain, she couldn't lift it. She wanted to take a rest, but when the bucket hit the ground, it would not be stable, and the water would spill.After tossing and tossing until dusk, Baoyu didn't master a little skill. By the time he filled two buckets of water, it was already dark.The last bucket of water was even more difficult to carry, the road was difficult to walk at night, he stumbled, but the two stinky monks didn't give him a lamp to light him, so he let him walk in the dark, Baoyu finally filled the three buckets of water crying. But it was already the middle of the night.
Master Miku wrote quietly in the meditation room, and finally waited for the news at Yinshi.He didn't speak, just turned around and wrote a big word "stupid" on the rice paper on the table.
The little monk shared the same room with Baoyu, and he urged Baoyu to sleep quickly, and he had to get up at Maozheng tomorrow.
Once Baoyu calculated, he could sleep for an hour!
He was already tired from the journey, and he was so tired that he was about to peel his skin after harvesting rice early in the morning, so he was given water for an hour.Baoyu couldn't bear it, cried and cried, and quit.
The little monk laughed at him: "What do you mean, you will have to suffer in the future. Tell you, when Master Suffering was an ascetic monk, he slept on a bed full of nails, walked hot coals, and did all kinds of hard things..."
On the same day, Mrs. Wang in Shaanxi received a distress letter from her son Baoyu.Mrs. Wang shook her hands, and sent someone to the yamen to invite Jia Zheng back.
When Mrs. Wang saw Jia Zheng, she burst into tears, "Master, our son got into trouble. I don't know how the old lady will deal with her. No, I have to go back and save him."
Jia Zheng looked at the letter and frowned, thinking that it was wrong for Baoyu to introduce Yingchun to Sun Shaozu without authorization.But Yingchun is nothing, it's just a concubine's daughter's family, it shouldn't be a big deal if it can cause any big trouble. "It's good to teach him a lesson, and the old lady can't punish him severely. It's nothing more than doubling his homework, which is also beneficial to him."
Mrs. Wang was still uneasy, but she gave up.As soon as Jia Zheng's words fell, someone from the other side of the yamen urged him to go quickly.In the evening, Jia Zheng came back with a sullen face and scolded Mrs. Wang severely.
"It's all your fault. You asked me to come back for something serious. It happened that the magistrate called me, but he couldn't find anyone, so he scolded me! You, I planned to ask him to write a few good words in the next year and transfer me back to Beijing. This time is good, because of you ignorant woman, we have to stay here for three years, or even longer!"
Mrs. Wang didn't know that this would happen, she was extremely wronged, but she could only accept Jia Zheng's reprimand.
The next day, another letter came from the capital.This time it was Madam Wang who stayed in Rongfu, and asked the caravan to give her a letter that came soon.Mrs. Wang opened the letter to see Baoyu's results, cried and wiped away her tears, and urged people to go and invite Jia Zheng back.
After a while, the boy came back alone.Jia Zheng thought she was messing around and ignored her.
Mrs. Wang was aggrieved and waited until midnight before seeing Jia Zheng who came back drunk. She was in a hurry and patted the letter into Jia Zheng's hand. "Our son has been sent to Mount Wutai!"
"What?" Jia Zheng was half awake, staring blankly at Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang was angry when she saw Jia Zheng's disappointment.If it was said that she was not a beautiful woman in her natal family back then, why would she choose to marry him, such a worthless person, and spend her whole life as a member of the Ministry of Industry, but when the time comes, she will be sent to the Northwest to be an official.This man is so useless that he doesn't even dare to say a harsh word in front of his wife.
A woman's life will be ruined if she marries the wrong person!
Mrs. Wang lamented that she was blind at the time.With tears in his eyes, he wrote a letter with fierce words, accusing Jia's mother of inappropriate behavior.After she finished writing, she turned to look at the sluggish Jia Zheng and pushed him. "Master, it's time for you to say something."
Jia Zheng glanced at Mrs. Wang, sighed, and took up his pen to write the next article.Mrs. Wang folded the letters from the two of them and put them in an envelope, and asked someone to deliver the letters overnight.After Mrs. Wang delivered the letter to Zhou Rui's family, she suddenly froze, thought for a while, raised her head and said to Zhou Rui's family: "I think I should go back."
Zhou Rui's family hurriedly nodded, wiped away tears and said, "I can't help but feel sour when I think of Second Master Bao suffering in Wutai Mountain. Second Master was raised by his wife since he was a child, so delicate and tender, how can he bear this crime? !"
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth with hatred, and threw the letter into a ball on the ground. "Prepare the car and leave tomorrow."
"Where is the master?" Zhou Rui's family asked.
Mrs. Wang thought for a while, and kept a beautiful maid named Zhang Qiaoyan beside her.That night Zhou Rui's family coaxed her to drink Juezi soup, and Mrs. Wang mentioned her as Jia Zheng's aunt.
"I absolutely can't stay here with the master, and I can't let go of family affairs. Think about it, if we are really not in Rongfu for three to five years, Baoyu will be sent away, and the second room is vacant, then Rongfu will not be full again." It’s the eldest brother and the others’ world. When the old lady gets older, she can only remember the friendship with her predecessors. After she’s a hundred years old, I’m afraid we won’t be able to share anything.”
Mrs. Wang grabbed Jia Zheng's hand and advised him not to worry about her harsh words, which were not rude.Seeing Jia Zheng wavering, Mrs. Wang smiled and recommended Zhang Qiaoyan to Jia Zheng.In the past, when Jia Zheng came to her room, he would take a few extra glances at this girl.Zhang Qiaoyan's beauty is indeed above the others, with some charming potential.Mrs. Wang said she would keep her by Jia Zheng's side.
Jia Zheng is not a womanizer, but he also has the desire of a normal man.Although people are old, they also like young and beautiful women.Jia Zheng saw that Qiaoyan was very agreeable, so he had no complaints with Mrs. Wang and allowed her to go.
On the way back, Madam Wang hurried to Mount Wutai.Sure enough, she saw her son, who lost a lot of weight, and was still rolling in the muddy pond just before seeing her.Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she burst into tears, touched her son's thin cheek, and burst out emotionally.
Baoyu also cried. He missed his family very much and begged Mrs. Wang to take him back.Mrs. Wang went to inform Baoyu's master, Master Miku.Master of Misery did not agree to let him go.Mrs. Wang became angry, threatened and lured him, and even moved out her eldest brother Wang Ziteng.
The miserable master had no choice but to hand over a contract to see with Mrs. Wang. "This is signed and pledged by the son himself, and the abbot of our temple is the witness, so it cannot be faked. There is also a letter from the old lady in your house, which cannot be handed over."
Mrs. Wang looked carefully, and sure enough there was Baoyu's signature and painting.Baoyu was dumbfounded when he saw it, and shook his head helplessly.Mrs. Wang took Baoyu and asked him why in private.
Baoyu regretted and said: "I didn't expect this to happen. Three days ago, the master suddenly asked me to go, relieved me, and told me that I only need to do the whole set of things he taught. I don't have to wait three or two years, and I can be released in just one year." Go back. The premise is that I voluntarily put a pledge on the contract. I heard that it would be a cheap thing to change from one year to three years, so I did it."
"Confused! This must be your grandmother's plan." Mrs. Wang patted Baoyu's arm, crying and cursing, "Even the Heavenly King and I can't save you this time. The old lady sent you here, I can say that you don't want to, It is still possible to snatch you back from the monk. Now you have made a bet on your own, and the trouble is getting bigger, but we don’t care about it. I’m afraid that if I take you back now, she will be punished more severely.”
Thinking of Jia Mu, Baoyu shivered and shook his head.Although the life in Mount Wutai was hard, it was difficult for him to adapt at first, and he even didn't want to live anymore.But after a long time, he found that there was an unexpected freedom here.Not too bad!
"I'd better stay here, mother, take care." Baoyu sent Mrs. Wang off, and was called to practice by his fellow disciples.
Mrs. Wang was very shocked when she noticed the change in her son. She stayed at the gate of the mountain and forgot her son surrounded by monks, feeling a lot of emotion.She always felt that the person who left just now was no longer like his son.
After all, Mrs. Wang hurried back to Rong Mansion by herself.When she returned to the mansion, the entire Rong Mansion was welcoming guests.Mrs. Wang did not send someone to notify her of her return in advance, so she knew that the person who welcomed her would not be her.
Mrs. Wang came back without notice on purpose, just to see Jia Mu's reaction.She walked quickly into Jiamu's courtyard with a sense of momentum.
Mother Jia and the Sanchun sisters are happily evaluating Daiyu's clothes.Everyone agreed that it was too plain.At this moment, the servant girl suddenly sent word that Mrs. Wang had come.Everyone was startled, the news came suddenly, and they all looked at Jiamu in bewilderment.
Mother Jia had a smile on her lips, just like usual, it seemed that no earth-shattering news could shock her.Fortunately, the old lady had a good concentration. Under her guidance, everyone quickly calmed down their surprise.So when Mrs. Wang entered the room, there was no abnormality on the faces of everyone.Mrs. Wang didn't see any abnormalities in anyone, as if she had never left Rongfu, she was extremely disappointed.
Mother Jia looked at Mrs. Wang with a smile, "I'm back."
Mrs. Wang bowed her head in response, saluting on the face, but her heart was turbulent.
Daiyu came over with another set of clothes.All eyes fell on Daiyu.Daiyu changed into a jacquard silk gown with a straight collar and a long brocade gown, and a deep purple gold bottomed butterfly skirt with flower cutouts.Everyone exclaimed that she was beautiful, this gorgeous but not high-profile body was just right for Daiyu.
Daiyu blushed and hid behind Jiamu shyly.
Mrs. Wang laughed foolishly, and praised Daiyu against her will, but her heart was so cold that she died.She just came back from a long journey, but everyone didn't care about her, they just paid attention to a girl who always lived in Rongfu.It's so irritating!
Jia Mu smiled and said to La Daiyu, "It's very suitable. I will introduce you to see the old man of the Sun family later. He will definitely be satisfied with you."
Daiyu nodded with a smile.
At this time, someone from outside said: "Old lady, the people are here, the Eldest Master accompanied Uncle Lin to meet their father and son in Rongxi Hall."
Mother Jia nodded.
Mrs. Wang turned her head and asked who Li Wan was.Li Wan replied to her, "Today is the day when the Sun family and Mrs. Lin met. The grandpa of the Sun family and the eldest grandpa came all the way from Zhejiang."
The Sun family?Look at each other?What, is Lin Ruhai going to continue!Mrs. Wang was startled, she stared at Daiyu with a spring complexion, and turned to Jiamu who looked joyful.
Confused, the old lady is really confused!
Mrs. Wang sweated on her brow and clenched her fists.She never expected that such a big incident would happen in the mansion when she was not at home for more than half a year.
Mrs. Wang didn't remember any famous Sun family in Shaoxing, so she turned to ask Li Wan about the person Lin Ruhai saw.Li Wan smiled and explained to Mrs. Wang that the woman was the lady invited by the old lady after the year, named Sun Muqing.
"What, it's a lady." Mrs. Wang almost gritted her teeth.
"Uncle Lin is the continuation, so you don't have to be the same family. What the old lady means, you must find a girl with a good personality and good character. Mr. Sun is both talented and beautiful, and the age is just right. The most important thing is that she loves Daiyu. To be a support for Daiyu. That's why the old lady fell in love with her." Li Wan explained.
Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes and laughed a few times, "It's too fast to decide, it's okay if it's as good as you said."
Li Wan could hear what Mrs. Wang meant, but what did she have to do with the Lin family if she was dissatisfied?This marriage is not decided by the old lady alone, the most important thing is that the Lin family is willing.
Li Wan looked at Daiyu who was smiling all over her face, and seeing that she attached so much importance to meeting Mr. Sun's family, she knew how important this lady was to her.
The eldest lady of the Sun family came first, dressed in fragrant and luxurious clothes, with heavy incense, and red hairpins, jade hairpins, and golden steps on top of her head.Sun Muqing greeted her sister-in-law and entered the door with a smile on her face, but the smile was slightly forced.
Mother Jia looked at the eldest wife of the Sun family, she didn't seem to be from a scholarly family, and her words and deeds were a little vulgar.At the beginning, Sun Muqing was able to accept Jiamu's invitation to come to Beijing, because the eldest wife of the Sun family pushed Sun Muqing away.At this moment, without Sun Muqing's special explanation, Mother Jia already knew about the discord between their aunts and sisters-in-law.
The eldest wife of the Sun family bowed to Jiamu, then looked at all kinds of valuable furnishings in the hall, and in her heart she calculated how much these things were worth in total.She smiled so much that her face was dripping with oil, she turned her head and patted Sun Muqing's hand. "My good sister, you are really promising. Being able to teach in a big family like the capital is really giving our grandparents face!"
Sun Muqing smiled, looked at Jiamu apologetically, and nodded in silence.
After Jia Mu introduced everyone, she invited her aunt and sister-in-law to sit down, and everyone drank tea for a while.Jia Amnesty brought the Sun's father and son to visit Jia's mother.Mother Jia looked at the father and son. The old man was kind and kind, and he had the demeanor of an old Confucian. The youthful aura was a bit lacking, but he was also a well-behaved scholar.
Sun Muqing's father and eldest brother are still good.
After the Sun family father and son met Daiyu, it was inconvenient to chat, so they were led by Jia She to the front yard for a banquet, accompanied by Lin Ruhai.The back house on Jiamu's side can only entertain Mrs. Sun's family alone.
After seeing off the guests in the evening, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Li Wan and Wang Xifeng stayed here on purpose to discuss today's meeting with Jia Mu.
Wang Xifeng looked at her words and saw that Jia's mother was in a good mood, so she dared to say something harsh, "The father and son of the Sun family look good, but this Mrs. Sun's family is really a bit—" Wang Xifeng didn't say anything, just made a face Show the bitter face to Jia Mu.
Mother Jia was amused by her antics, raised her eyebrows and said to Wang Xifeng, "Her natal family is a merchant, so it is reasonable to say that she cannot enter the Sun's house. It is because her father saved the old man of the Sun's family back then. Worse, but also loves to calculate. I heard that Mr. Sun was often excluded by her sister-in-law before. So you need to be cautious when marrying a wife, background, family education, etc. are too important."
Mrs. Wang was particularly harsh when she heard these words, and she looked at Jia Mu dissatisfied.What does the old lady mean by this, and who is she talking about!
