Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

Coincidentally, in the original book, at about this time, Xue Pan tricked Baoyu out to a party. Qingwen was so angry that she refused to open the door for Daiyu, which caused Daiyu to cry again. Hua Yin".But now Xue Pan is estranged from Jia's family, and naturally has no contact with Baoyu, and even vaguely looks down on him because of various things, this episode will never happen again.Because of this monk's appearance together, Piansheng gave Xue Pan a warning sign, and he really invited Baoyu, who had just recovered from a serious illness, to come out.

This time, he didn't use deceitful means, but went to visit directly, and only spoke after meeting Jia Zheng.Jia Zheng thought highly of Xue Pan, his nephew, and when he heard that he wanted to see Baoyu, he sent someone to invite him.

When Baoyu heard that it was Xue Pan who wanted to see him, he couldn't help being surprised.But in front of Jia Zheng, he didn't dare to show it.

Unexpectedly, after meeting, Xue Pan didn't seem to have anything to say to him, and after a few polite words, he left again, leaving both father and son at a loss, not knowing why.

Jia Zheng used this excuse to reprimand Baoyu for his good life. In his words, he praised Xue Pan for being valued by the county king, and asked him to get closer to Xue Pan, which made Baoyu feel so bored. It's getting more and more boring for the king of Hejun.Thinking of Daiyu moving out like this, it was not easy to ask her about her current situation in front of her father just now, and it was inevitable that she would be a little depressed when she returned, which would inevitably make the staff of Yihong Courtyard fearful and worried, and comforted her a lot.

But Xue Pan was a little disappointed in his heart.

He looked horizontally and vertically, but no matter what, he couldn't see what was unique about Baoyu.After a few words of probing, it was found that Baoyu had never even met the monk directly, and was ignorant of this matter. Presumably, there was nothing to be found out from him.

Because of this incident, Xue Pan felt a little uncomfortable in the next few days.

In fact, he didn't know most of Bo Yang's affairs, and he wouldn't go out of his way to inquire about them.But for some reason, Xue Pan paid special attention to this matter.Most likely, Bo Yang's unusual attitude towards this, as well as the uneasiness that the matter was out of his control, ultimately made him unable to be at ease.

Therefore, when facing Bo Yang, it is inevitable that he would hesitate to ask but dare not ask, and he was afraid that Bo Yang would find out, so he simply decided to hide for the time being.

He was usually so sticky, but he suddenly changed his temper, how could Bo Yang not know about it?Although it is not clear what exactly Xue Pan is embarrassing about, but it has something to do with him.So Bo Yang thought about how to make Xue Pan happier.

This is really rare in the relationship between the two. Xue Pan is the kind of person who can't wait to bring the best in the world to each other when he likes it. He is the only one who flatters and accommodates Bo Yang on weekdays. Bo Yang I'm also used to this way of getting along, but now that I think about it, it's really a bit of a loss to him.

Xue Pan's birthday is just a few days away, and Bo Yang has been thinking about how to celebrate his birthday since a long time ago, so this is an excellent opportunity.

Xue Pan's birthday is on the third day of May. On this day, not only Aunt Xue and Baochai and Daiyu prepared birthday gifts, but all the servants of the whole family came to kowtow, and the shopkeepers and other people in the shops outside also used this name to send gifts to Xue Pan. A lot of things came over.In addition, Xue Pan's usual business contacts, as well as Tonghe County Prince's Mansion, also have birthday presents.

There are many precious things in these birthday gifts, but to Xue Pan, they are just a novelty for a while. I don’t know how many they have seen since childhood, so naturally they don’t take it to heart.What he was looking forward to was Bo Yang's gift.Bo Yang went back to Jinling last year and missed his birthday, so this was the first time Bo Yang celebrated his birthday after the two made love, Xue Pan had been thinking about it for a long time.

However, until the sun set to the west and everyone up and down had accepted the gifts, Bo Yang still didn't move.

——Don't say it was a gift, he didn't even appear in front of Xue Pan, and naturally he didn't even have an auspicious word to celebrate his birthday.

This made Xue Pan, who couldn't wait to get up early in the morning and was looking forward to it, very disappointed.

Originally, Xue Pan wanted to surprise himself with Deng Boyang, but at this time, he finally couldn't hold back, and went to Bo Yang's yard to see what he was doing, and whether he had forgotten today. What day is it.

Standing at the gate of Bo Yang's courtyard was a burly man with one arm missing, named Chang Xing.Before, Xue Pan wanted to change a few people around Bo Yang, and brought many people to choose for him, but Bo Yang didn't like them.Later, I don't know what he thought, so he entrusted He Junwang to invite two soldiers who were disabled in the war to come back from the army.

Most of the officials' families have soldiers assigned by the imperial court, so they can rest assured no matter whether they are guarding the gate or traveling with them. Many families of the rich and powerful in Beijing have followed suit, but as long as it is the first time for disabled people, Xue Pan didn't quite agree. Yang asked another soldier named Changshun to follow him, and his attitude immediately changed.

Changxing, Changshun, they sound like a couple.This is the same as when he gave Bo Yang the apricot slave by his side before.How can Xue Pan be unhappy if they don't distinguish between each other?Especially after Changshun came to his side, he got to know him a lot, and he knew that the other party was not as rude and reckless as he thought.It turned out that the two were originally scouts in the army, with a meticulous and rigorous temperament, and they could read all kinds of documents and books, which really helped Xue Pan a lot.

So seeing Changxing now, Xue Pan smiled and exchanged a few words before asking Bo Yang what he was doing.

Changxing shook his head and said, "Uncle said that if Uncle Xue is here, just go in."

He had already guessed that he was coming?Xue Pan was sure that it was impossible for Bo Yang to forget his birthday, but he didn't know what to arrange here, so he couldn't wait to step into the house.

The door was obviously closed, but as soon as Xue Pan opened the door, Bo Yang stood at the door, looking at him with a smile, "I'm still thinking, how long can you bear it? It's even worse than I thought." Be more definite."

How could Xue Pan not know that Bo Yang was deliberately teasing him?He stepped forward to hold Bo Yang's hand, and said, "So it was to make me anxious on purpose, I knew Brother Yang would never forget my birthday."

Bo Yang wanted to laugh.Since more than a month ago, Xue Pan has brought up this topic intentionally or unintentionally. If he still can't remember this, then Xue Pan will really blow up.

But his purpose today is not just to grind Xue Pan's temper.Bo Yang turned his head and said coldly, "You have been avoiding me for the past few days, I thought you didn't want to see me. Today is your birthday, so what if you are not happy to see me? I'll just be sensible. Wouldn't it be better to go?"

Xue Pan couldn't help feeling guilty when he heard the words, "It's just that there are many things in the store under the festival..."

After speaking halfway, seeing Bo Yang just looking at him like this, he couldn't continue.

Bo Yang broke away from his hand, walked back and sat down, and said, "Why don't you continue talking?"

Xue Pan hurriedly followed, squatted down in front of him, stretched out his hand to hug his calf, and put his face on his knee, "Brother Yang, don't be angry, it's all my fault."

"Tell me, what are you thinking?" Bo Yang asked now.

Xue Pan faltered for a moment, then he let out his heart and told all his conjectures.Bo Yang heard it funny, "Could it be possible that you still think I'm a god descending to earth? I'm just an ordinary person, and I only know a little inside information occasionally. Besides, even a god descending to earth is now a mortal. What are you afraid of?"

Knowing that it was just this kind of unnecessary trouble, Bo Yang didn't take it to heart, and the expression on his face became relaxed again.Xue Pan looked up, just in time to see the smile disappearing on his face, and blurted out, "The immortals are not half as good as you."

"My mouth is full of nonsense." Bo Yang pointed to the table next to him, "Where is the thing you want?"

Xue Pan turned his head and saw a one-foot-square mahogany box on the table. Knowing that it was a gift from Bo Yang, he immediately smiled.I wanted to go there immediately to take a look at it, but after a second thought, I continued to stick to Bo Yang, "I just want Brother Yang."

Bo Yang kicked him, and he reluctantly got up to open the box.

Inside the box was a neat new set of clothes, from inner garments to outer robes, from forehead wiping to shoes and socks.

Xue Pan rummaged through it again with some unwillingness to give up, making sure that there was nothing else in the box, so he gave up.It's not that this gift is bad, it's just that although it's thoughtful, it's really not that special.At least not in line with Xue Pan's expectations.

"Why did you think of giving me clothes?" He turned to look at Bo Yang, "I have all these things at home."

Looking at his face, Bo Yang knew that he was dissatisfied, so he raised his chin, "Open it and have a look."

Only then did Xue Pan turn back, take out the clothes in the box and unfold them.It was only after this expansion that the difference was discovered.The clothes were top-notch in terms of material and workmanship, but what surprised Xue Pan was the style, which didn't seem to be similar to the clothes he usually wears.He made a gesture, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. He quickly turned back to look at Bo Yang, and asked in surprise and joy, "Brother Yang made it himself?"

Men in this era didn't do these things, so although Xue Pan knew that Bo Yang was very good at fabrics, he didn't know that he still had such a handicraft.It wouldn't be surprising if it was only a set of clothes, but it would be different if it was made by Bo Yang with stitches and stitches.

Bo Yang didn't answer his question, but said with a gentle smile, "Try to see if it fits."
