[Red House Chai Dai] Salted Pork Knuckle, Crab Rice Wine

Yao Jing rushed home angrily, and complained to Baochai first: "Your heart is so big! You let sister Lin marry that kind of person!"

Baochai didn't understand what he meant, and when she asked carefully, she found out that Yao Jing heard the news of Jia Baoyu's beating from a passer-by near Jia's mansion: "I didn't take it seriously at first, but later they used Baoyu's illness as an excuse. Borrowing our garden. That's all right, it's their garden anyway, and it's up to them to decide whether to borrow it or not. It's just to ridicule me and Sister Sun. So I use Baoyu to make friends with the Qi official in Prince Zhongshun's mansion. , Mrs. Wang was so angry that her face turned green."

After Yao Jing explained the ins and outs of the incident, she questioned Baochai again: "Since you have Sister Lin in your heart, but let Sister Lin marry that kind of person, it feels disgusting to think about it!"

Baochai smiled wryly: "He has the imperial concubine's order, so what can I do? Besides, Sister Lin's father was a former court flower. Such a noble family background, how can her reputation be ruined because of me?"

Yao Jing can't help but laugh, it turns out that the world is upside down, like Jia Baoyu and others, who are entangled with attackers on the inside and flirting with Qi officials on the outside, they are gentle and clean princes and grandsons, while Baochai and others are outrageous However, if Daiyu followed her, it would be a bad reputation.

"Jing'er, the way of the world is like this, you must act rashly." Sun Mu also persuaded from the side, "Baochai doesn't have the heart, but is helpless."

Yao Jing stood there for a while, then heaved a long sigh and accepted the reality angrily. Seeing that the faces of the two people present were not good-looking, she expected that they would feel very uncomfortable even thinking about it, so she intentionally changed the subject and asked, "Since we can't go to the Grand View Garden?" But this banquet must be held, and it must be held with money to show our courage! But where is this banquet?"

Baochai heard her impassioned in the first half, but was full of helplessness in the end, so she couldn't help laughing, saying: "If there is really no place to put wine, I have a place. It's just that this garden is not mine, but sister Lin's. The deed is with me for the time being."

Sun Mu and Yao Jing were amazed by what they heard, and hurriedly looked into the garden together with Baochai, and saw that although it was a small area, it was more than enough for a few tables of wine.When I went around to the back hall, I saw the Banpo bamboo forest similar to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and praised Baochai's heart.When he saw the rare flowers and plants that are common in Hengwu Garden showing fresh green among the rocks of Taihu Lake, Sun Mu looked at Baochai first, and said, "You are really caring."

Baochai quickly clarified: "This Taihu stone, I thought it was moved away, but who thought that sister Lin would not be happy after seeing it, so she had no choice but to move it here."

Yao Jing was even more excited, and said, "Let's hold the banquet here! Since it's difficult for you to say so, let's use this garden to pay tribute to Sister Lin!"

Unexpectedly, everyone was busy with the preparations, and there was no time to post the post in the future. After the imperial concubine was safe, she went to the holy place to ask for the order, and the imperial edict to confer Yao Jing arrived. Sun Mu, the sister of Jinlan, was awarded a seventh-rank imperial order because of her meritorious service in the recommendation. According to Yao Jing's amazing statement, it seems that the imperial order does not require money.They looked down on the coveted title of this deep house and aristocratic mansion, but they were happy with the statement in the imperial edict that they were allowed to buy good farmland and beautiful houses, build mansions, and live and work in peace and contentment.This also marks that they can finally build the Daughter Valley according to this edict.With the edict in hand, the government will not apportion money and food, exploit and extort miscellaneous taxes, and it can just stop the mouths of the ignorant common people outside.

It's just that, more and more people came to Yao Jing's house to give gifts and rush to curry favor. Hearing that Yao Jing was going to hold a flower appreciation banquet in the name of her righteous sister's apprentice Baochai, many ladies wanted to ask for a post.Even His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess called Baochai with great interest to inquire about the flower feast, expressing that she would definitely come to find out.

The eldest princess has a reputation for provoking women, so Baochai and Sun Mu couldn't sit still.They made up their minds to invite Sister Lin and Sister Sanchun to come together. If they accidentally fell in love with this lucky but ineffective eldest princess, wouldn't it cause endless troubles?Fortunately, there were several entries and exits from the garden, so Baochai decided to discuss with Sun Mu and the others, and invited Han Qi and the others to sit in the front hall with Princess Chang, and Sun Mu and Yao Jing were in charge of entertaining them. Go messing around.But Baochai entertained all the sisters in the garden without disturbing each other.

Because of the upcoming visit of the eldest princess, the flower viewing banquet was very lively. Han Qi and others tried their best to show their performance in front of the eldest princess. They volunteered to invite a well-known opera troupe in the capital, and they also said that they invited some young masters to come and perform as a guest. .Originally because of Jia Baoyu's beating, Baochai expected to send the post to Jia's mother to be rejected. Unexpectedly, on that day, Jia's mother brought Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, sisters Sanchun, Lin Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun, Xue Baoqin and a master Miaoyu built a car together. Baochai was busy and finally settled down. Someone reported that Youshi of Ningguo Mansion brought her daughter-in-law Hushi and her stepmother Youlao Niang when they married. Tuoyouping Second Sister You and Third Sister You arrived together.

Baochai was very puzzled by Youshi's uninvited arrival.It wasn't until he heard that Han Qi had invited Liu Xianglian, a well-known young man in the capital, to play the role as a guest, that he suddenly realized.

In the previous life, her elder brother Xue Pan and this Liu Xianglian did not know each other, and later they became sworn brothers, so she was deeply impressed by the matter of Liu Xianglian and Third Sister You.

At that time, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng respected each other like ice. Taking advantage of Jia Jing's funeral in Ningguo Mansion, he hooked up with Second Sister You, who was tired of being played by Jia Zhen, and secretly bought the house in Xiaohuazhi Lane, and married her as a foreign house.Fearing that Third Sister You would cause trouble, he asked her to find out that she had been infatuated with Liu Xianglian for five years, and then drove Liu Xianglian to make love with male and female swords, and said they were married.

Later, Liu Xianglian suspected that Third Sister You had an affair with someone in Jia's mansion, and said something like "the only stone lion at the gate in the East Mansion is clean", resigned from the marriage, asked for the dowry, and forced Third Sister You to commit suicide with a male and female sword. , he cried a lot to show his friendship, and then fled far away under the pretext of becoming a monk with a Taoist priest.

At that time, Baochai felt that Liu Xianglian was very suspicious, so when Xue Pan cried bitterly for Liu Xianglian to become a monk, she was quite calm.Unexpectedly, within a few years, news came out that Liu Xianglian really fell into a bandit and became a thief in the border of Ping'an Prefecture. Even her most beloved sister, Xue Baoqin, was taken over by Liu Xianglian.

Baoqin is a beauty that even Jiamu is full of praise, and it can be regarded as what Liu Xianglian said that day: "We must find a stunning one." A daughter like Qin?

Thinking of this, Baochai inevitably became vigilant, secretly thinking that Younger Sister You might have come here for Liu Xianglian, whether she succeeds or not, the relationship is determined by God, she can stay out of it, but for her precious sister Xue Baoqin, she must protect her That's right, we must not let her be watched by Liu Xianglian and other grassroots, so as not to repeat the same mistakes.

It's just that the scene is so busy at this time, Baochai has to pay more attention to the relationship between Liu Xianglian and Third Sister You.Turning her head around for a while, she saw the tall maid named Siqi who was serving Yingchun, eyeing and whispering to a young servant who was temporarily hired to work in the front yard.Baochai was more thoughtful, and took the roster, and when she saw a person named Pan You'an in the roster, she immediately lamented: Who recruited Pan You'an to work as a part-time worker!

When Siqi was kicked out of the Grand View Garden back then, her reputation was very bad, and rumors spread that she had an affair with her cousin Pan You'an.Baochai didn't care about any private contacts between the two.But if the two of them did something embarrassing at the flower viewing feast and were caught and caught, everyone would be ashamed.Thinking of this, Baochai's palms were filled with cold sweat.

But the garden here is not very big, Baochai is not the only one who notices the strangeness of playing chess.The mandarin ducks waited on Jia Mu when she came here, and the most important thing was to watch all directions and listen to all directions. Seeing that Si Qi was not in the right mood, she intended to mention something to prevent her from going wrong.Who would have thought that following Siqi along the way, he saw Siqi and a young servant serving in the front yard making eye contact, coughed lightly, and raised his voice, "Siqi, your girl is calling you, come back soon!"

Sister Jin Yuanyang frightened away a pair of wild mandarin ducks with her voice, and Baochai's high-hanging heart finally fell back into her stomach.Seeing that there was no abnormality in the surroundings, she planned to go back the same way to tell Baoqin a few words, and then find leisure time to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Daiyu, when suddenly she saw His Royal Highness the eldest princess come out from the side surrounded by a group of people.

Because the banquet in the front yard had already been held for more than half an hour, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess was all over the face at this time, with a hint of alcohol on her face, and when she saw Baochai, she stopped her and swayed in front of her. She raised her face frivolously, and asked vaguely: "I heard that you fell in love with a shabby resident in Jinling City, and you didn't hesitate to fall out with your family because of him. What happened to such a dignified lady? What's so good about being poor? Is it better than me?"

Baochai was terrified, and wanted to turn around and leave, but she didn't dare, and stared at the female officer next to the eldest princess, Sang Luo, who was about to kill someone, standing there, her whole body stiff and motionless.

On the contrary, the eldest princess became even more proud. Relying on her drunkenness, she approached Baochai again, as if she wanted to kiss her.The overly rich incense on her body was intertwined with the smell of alcohol all over her body, which made Baochai suffocate.

Suddenly, a small stone fell from the grape arbor above the corridor, jumped in front of everyone's eyes, and rolled to the side.

"There are assassins!" Sang Luo's face froze, and he shouted violently.She stared at the stone for a long time, frowned, and winked at the people around her. A group of guards surrounded the eldest princess and took her away.
