Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

The conversation was divided into two parts. Here, Zhao Ziyi and Lin Qi carried the boxes and walked to the door of Xue's house with difficulty, only to feel that the two arms did not seem to be their own.As soon as Xue's family left, he immediately put the box down, not forgetting to handle it with care and not to bump it.

The servants who welcomed here hurried forward to help, but Zhao Ziyi refused them all.

Lin Qi looked amused.He already saw that Bo Yang was intentionally teasing Zhao Ziyi, but Lin Qi also knew why Zhao Ziyi was always running to other people these days, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with this harmless teasing.But he was surprised that His Royal Highness He Jun Wang, who was always shrewd, really didn't see it.

What made him even more confused was that after the two got into the car, Zhao Ziyi couldn't wait to open the box and found that it contained a stone, but he still didn't realize that it was Bo Yang's prank, but began to taste it seriously. Look at these two stones.

"This stone has a unique shape, is exquisitely carved, and fits the beauty of the four characters 'wrinkled, leaky, thin, and transparent'. It should be a Taihu stone. It is not the usual gray and black, but delicate white, which is rare. In my opinion In my opinion, this should be a water stone formed by being soaked in the lake water and washed away all the year round. Therefore, the lines are full and round, and the style is graceful. It is a treasure among Taihu stones. No wonder Brother Bai took the painstaking effort to bring it back from thousands of miles."

Lin Qi twitched the corner of his mouth, and suddenly felt that it was very suitable for Zhao Ziyi and Bo Yang to form a family.However, if Bo Yang knew that the stone he used to tease people happened to fall into Zhao Ziyi's arms and was regarded as a precious gift by the other party, how would he feel?

He coughed and said, "I even forgot that you like these things the most, I think Brother Bai Shi also likes you."

Zhao Ziyi smiled triumphantly, and looked at the stone in front of him with some hesitation.

These two stones are not too big. Although they are good, they are a bit embarrassing because they don't know how to use them.Because Taihu stones are often used as landscape stones in gardens, they are either large and complete stones that can be used as the main thing in a landscape, or small and exquisite ones that can be used as embellishments in the landscape.The two pieces in front of me are neither big nor small, but they are a bit worrying.

However, Zhao Ziyi is worthy of being immersed in this way for many years, and he has quickly figured out how to arrange it. ——It is true that one stone is too small, but if there are two pieces that are decorated and complement each other, they can form a tiny landscape.He has even thought about where it should be arranged in his own yard to add color to it.

Then the question came, only one stone was given to him, what to do?

Zhao Ziyi looked at Lin Qi eagerly, and even if he didn't say a word, Lin Qi immediately understood what he meant, "Cough... I don't like these strange rocks and mountains and rivers, and I keep them for nothing here, so why don't I put them in Yi's house?" Bro, in your garden, you can make the best use of it, and I can go and have a look when I have time."

Zhao Ziyi nodded repeatedly, and moved the stone in front of him, "That's very good."

He raised his head and saw a faint smile on Lin Qi's upright face, and said, "I know what you're going to say, but I'm afraid you underestimated Brother Bo Shi this time."

"Oh?" Lin Qi was surprised.

Zhao Ziyi said, "Of course he is teasing me, but this gift is not just picked up by the side of the road."

Obviously, Bo Yang knew what he liked, the gift should have been prepared early in the morning, and it was a temporary idea to let Zhao Ziyi move it by himself.In this way, Zhao Ziyi was satisfied with the gift, but also wanted something from the Xue family, so naturally he didn't care about his little jokes.On this point, Bo Yang grasped his proportions very well.

So it's not that Zhao Ziyi doesn't know, it's just that he really doesn't mind.

On the contrary, he thinks that Bo Yang's way of dealing with things is very good, neither offending nor being bullied.To be a relative of the emperor requires exactly this kind of attitude, neither too arrogant nor looked down upon by others.

The in-laws of the eldest princess' mansion just needed such tolerance and courage.

Lin Qi shrugged, with a look of "as long as you're happy".

So on the second day, it was not so strange that Zhao Ziyi still pulled Lin Qi to the door with an excited look on his face.

On the contrary, Bo Yang was very puzzled. He thought that Zhao Ziyi would be somewhat unhappy after he came to his senses and realized what he meant.After all, even if it was a joke, Zhao Ziyi probably would seldom experience it. For a proud man like him, he might not be able to bear it.

At that time, Bo Yang was talking to Baochai and Daiyu.

Bo Yang was away from home for such a long time, naturally many things happened, the two younger sisters wanted to talk to him and listen to his opinion.After listening, Bo Yang finally understood the current situation completely.

In the past few months, the one thing that had the greatest impact on the two girls was that they were invited to attend the flower viewing banquet at the Princess's Mansion at the same time during the warm spring season.

Although this flower viewing banquet is held every year, not everyone is lucky enough to be invited.Not to mention Xue's family background, even when Rong Guogong was in Japan, the concubine Yuan who is now in the palace has not been invited.So this incident not only made Xue's family very happy, but also became a hot topic in Jia's family for a long time.

Because of this reason, the Jia family's attitude towards Xue's family and Daiyu has undergone very subtle changes.

Not to mention that after Xue Pan's spice business started, the Jia family knew that the Xue family had a close relationship with the eldest princess's mansion.

Originally, because of the difficulty in borrowing money, Mrs. Wang was not without a bit of grievance in her heart.But now she has become intimate with Baochai again, and from time to time, someone will come to pick her up.After discussing with her children, Aunt Xue did not stop her, but every time she only let her daughter go to live there by herself, she said that she had to take care of the housework and it was inconvenient to live there for a long time.

After all, she is the hostess of the family. Seeing that the Xue family's business is booming and there are many guests every day, there are naturally more things to take care of, and the Jia family can't force it.Fortunately, it's the same with Baochai. Anyway, their purpose was to let Baoyu and Baochai get in touch with each other more.

——In the eyes of the Jia family, it is obvious that the eldest princess treats Baochai differently, and Daiyu is just a side effect.They had the same vision as Princess Jingping, and felt that Baochai was much better than Daiyu in choosing a daughter-in-law.

Naturally, they did not ignore Daiyu for this reason. The most obvious point was that after living in Jia's house for several years, she finally had her own yard.

Now the Pear Fragrance Court has long been used for other purposes. Every time Baochai comes to Jia's house, he always stays with Daiyu.Live here for a few days, then pick up Daiyu and go to Xue's house to live for a while.Aunt Xue recognized Daiyu as a daughter-in-law, and the Jia family knew about it, so naturally they had no objection.

However, it is precisely because of this different treatment that Daiyu sees clearly many things that she may not have known before, or that she may have known but was just unwilling to admit.

It is true that the Jia family has kindness, affection and righteousness to her, but after she really sees it clearly, she realizes that they are far from being as good as she thought.Even Daiyu gradually realized that many things that were on her mind in the past were no longer so important to her now.

She didn't know if this was what Bo Yang meant by looking away, but she couldn't help but feel a little disheartened.

She is not stupid, the more clearly she sees, the more clearly she thinks.

The old lady was her direct grandmother, when she first entered Jia's mansion, she was very fond of her, even her own granddaughter was put behind.Although it was not necessary for her to expend too much energy to welcome the three sisters who were either concubines or Xifu girls, but how much of it was because her father was still in office at that time, a very favored and important official inspector History?

When his father died of illness and Yuanchun became a concubine, the status of the two families became more and more disparate, and the Jia family needed other help, so the eyes of the old lady and the wife turned to Baochai, as if they had given up on her.

Among all the considerations, none of them have considered the so-called affection, all of them are driven by interests.

In the past, she was sad because of these things, but now it's like a joke when she thinks about it.The flesh and blood of the relatives of this family, after all, are just talking nicely.How can she not be discouraged?

As for Baoyu, Daiyu recognized him as a confidant in the past, and he was indeed gentle and courteous. However, Baoyu still stayed in the same place, and the two of them naturally drifted apart.

Until now, Daiyu could no longer distract herself from worrying about his existence.

Fortunately, during this period of time, there was Baochai by her side, and the Xue family made her relax. After all, Daiyu was not overwhelmed by this event that subverted her own concepts, but instead gradually reshaped her various thoughts.And in her heart, many questions arose from this, which urgently needed to be answered.

Bo Yang is undoubtedly the most suitable person in Daiyu's eyes who can give her the answer.

So, after talking about what happened during this period, she expressed all the doubts in her heart.

Bo Yang was deeply moved when he heard this.All of this was more or less due to his original arrangements, but he did not expect that Daiyu's mind was so clear that he hadn't finished the preliminary preparations on his side, and she had already seen everything clearly.

Bo Yang was worried that she would not be able to accept it, but later found that she was very calm, and this calm was definitely not faked.

In fact, this is also because Daiyu's feelings for Jia's family and Baoyu have not been as deep as a few years later, and there is no triple blow of being betrayed by relatives, lovers, and friends at the same time, so she can still bear it.And with Bo Yang as a role model, she already knew that her future was not tied to the Jia family, so naturally she would not feel desperate because of this.
