[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

Lin Ze secretly took a look at the maid standing behind Daiyu, and saw that she was petite, with delicate features, and seemed honest.Looking up, she saw Daiyu talking with Jiamu only with a smile, and she also smiled and took Lin Lan to pay her respects.

Jia Mu pulled Lin Lan over and caressed her, which made Lin Lan's face flushed. She was very embarrassed and said with a smile: "When I see brother Lan, I can't stop being happy." Then she said: " Only the two of you brothers are so good, how much better than the incarnate devil king in our family."

Lin Ze knew that what Jia Mu said was just a joke, if he really compares Jia Baoyu, you can see whether Jia Mu will treat you sincerely.Then he didn't take this seriously, and just laughed and said: "Second cousin is the most personal dragon and phoenix, and what grandma said is making fun of us." Even though he said this, he said straight to himself in his heart: extremely hypocritical!

What Lin Ze thought of, didn't Wang Xifeng think of it?Lin Ze understands the truth of Jia Mu's explicit criticism and implicit praise, and of course Wang Xifeng also understands it, moreover, she understands it better than Lin Ze.At that moment, he came forward with a smile and said jokingly: "The old ancestor seems to only remember Cousin Lin in his heart, what can I do here?" He smiled and said, "I'm only in the honor of my cousin Lin, and I want my ancestors to reward me with a sip of tea!" As he spoke, he went to ask for tea.

The whole room burst into laughter, and Jia Mu even pointed at Wang Xifeng's forehead and laughed, "As smart as a monkey, there are such words." When the tea came, I personally fed Wang Xifeng a mouthful, and then said: "It just so happens that your cousin is here today, so you have tea to eat. If your cousin is not here, I will never obey you." The maid also covered her mouth and laughed, but Wang Xifeng ignored it.

Wang Xifeng's face was blushing, and her pair of red phoenix eyes raised slightly.Hearing what Jia Mu said, she stood up, facing Lin Ze and Lin Lanfu, and said, "Thank you two cousins ​​Lin for giving me this tea."

It made everyone in the room laugh, including Daiyu and Jiamu.

There was a smile on the corner of Lin Ze's lips, and he said in his heart: Wang Xifeng is such a long-sleeved dancer and eloquent speaker, it would be extremely difficult for Jia Lian to subdue her.

Seeing that everyone in the room was smiling, Lin Lan said in a childlike voice, "Second Lian's sister-in-law, Lian's second cousin treated me very well when he was in Yangzhou. Naturally, I treated you well too. I'll give you this fruit." As he said, he took out a handful of hazelnuts from a small bag hanging diagonally on his body and handed it to Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng was so happy that her eyebrows and eyes were all crooked, she just smiled and said: "Good cousin, you will hurt my sister-in-law at such a young age." After saying that, she ate one and said with a smile: "This fruit is really delicious. As soon as you bite it open, your mouth will be full of fragrance." Before finishing speaking, he peeled off one for Mother Jia to eat.Seeing that Mother Jia really enjoyed eating, she smiled at Lin Lan again and said, "Good cousin, please reward sister-in-law some more."

Lin Lan took the small bag from her waist and handed it to Wang Xifeng in its entirety.Wang Xifeng looked at the embroiderer on the small bag while holding the hazelnuts inside, and seeing a picture of a baby play embroidered on the bag, she exclaimed in surprise: "Good cousin, you are really good at making this small bag." Exquisite. Look at these two fat dolls, they seem to be alive."

Jia Mu was also curious: "What kind of picture is it? Let me have a look."

Wang Xifeng handed over the small bag in her hand. Mother Jia looked at it for a long time before she smiled and said, "This embroidery work is very good. The dolls on it are really neat, and the flowers, birds, insects and fish are also lifelike."

Everyone stretched their necks to see it. Mother Jia only smiled and handed the small bag to Wang Xifeng. Wang Xifeng saw that everyone was curious, so she passed it on to everyone one by one.

It turned out that there was a picture of a baby play embroidered on the small bag, and a child with a bun on his head was kicking a small ball under his feet.This is an ordinary picture of children kicking jujube. The beauty is that there are flowers, birds and trees on the embroidery, and there are covered bridges and rockery. The clear stream is close at hand, and there are fish in the stream. lifelike.Such an embroidery, why not teach people to applaud it?

Seeing that everyone was praising her small bag, Lin Lan was very proud at the moment, raised her little nose and said, "My brother bought this for me, it looks pretty." Seeing everyone looking at her, she felt a little embarrassed again, but Still the childish voice emphasized: "My brother said, the one above is Lan'er, and Lan'er can also play Cuju."

Everyone takes a closer look, isn't it?The child on this small bag has delicate features and a cute naive look, isn't he almost similar to Lin Lan.At the moment, he smiled and praised Lin Ze's clever thought.

For a while, everyone had enough laughter, Wang Xifeng asked Mother Jia's intentions, hurriedly called everyone to sit down, and asked the servant girl to serve the meal.Although Lin Ze wanted to avoid suspicion and go out, he couldn't stand what Jia Mu and Wang Xifeng wanted, so he still leaned his body and only looked in Lin Lan's direction.Daiyu is still sitting beside Jiamu, accompanied by Sanchun.After the meal in silence, servants and maidservants came up to remove the dishes and wine cups, and brought tea for everyone to wash.

Because Wang Xifeng knew that the three brothers and sisters of the Lin family would not drink tea until after a meal, so she only asked the little maid to serve tea according to the time, needless to say.

After everyone in the room rested for a while, Jia Mu suddenly said, "Yu'er, come to me."

Lin Ze was already squinting his eyes and feeling a little sleepy, but when he heard Jia Mu's voice, he immediately sat up straight, thinking: What should come will come.

Caressing Daiyu's hand, Mother Jia said, "Pity me, Yu'er, she is so young..." As she spoke, she seemed to feel that her tone was too sad, so she paused and turned around. The voice said: "Since I saw that you are only accompanied by a little girl today, I feel that it is not good. Therefore, I want to give you the maid who has been serving me for a long time, and it is also a way of expressing my heart."

Lin Ze raised his eyelids, and saw that behind Daiyu were only Nanny Cui and two second-class maids, but Qing Xing and Licorice were not there.He thought to himself: Mother Jia's words are very interesting. I don't even think about Daiyu's coming to Jia's mansion today, with so many people serving her family and her family, what do you want your maid to do!

Daiyu listened to what Jiamu said, so she said, "Grandmother is sorry, but I already have too many maids around me, and it won't be like having any more."

Mother Jia was taken aback for a moment, then pointed to the two maidservants standing behind Daiyu, and said, "I see that they are too young, so I'm afraid they're not serious."

Daiyu laughed and said, "Grandmother doesn't know, these two were my second-class maidservants, one named Xueyan and the other named Qinghe, they were only ten years old."

With a sigh, Jia Mu asked the maid who was standing behind Daiyu to stand up, and saw that she was wearing a small purple jacket, with a small figure and delicate features.He also smiled and said: "This girl has been serving me all the time, and she is the most appropriate and meticulous. Besides, you have only come to the house, and you don't know how many people are involved. It is cheaper to have her serving by your side." He laughed and said: "She is The one named Brother Ying looks well-groomed, and is older than you two servant girls."

Daiyu also took a look at Brother Ying, and saw that she was very obedient with lowered eyebrows and narrowed eyes, so she smiled and said: "Grandmother is thoughtful, but I already have four first-class maids, and it's not like having Brother Ying and sister. But Sister Ying was given by my grandmother..." She bit her lower lip as she spoke, seeming very hesitant.

Seeing this, Jia Mu just waved her hands and said, "Then let Brother Parrot remain as a second-class maid."

Daiyu glanced at Yingge, and then said to Jia Mufu: "Thank you, grandma, Yuer, this parrot elder sister is so beautiful, and wearing purple clothes is so suitable, Yuer thought, why not change her name to 'Zicuckoo'?" 'Let's go." Then he said with a smile: "Grandmother, I think that this sister is like a rhododendron after serving my grandmother for so long."

Jia Mu was happy to hear that, so she said to Parrot: "From now on, I will change my name to 'Zicuckoo'. It is also the girl's love for you." After that, she asked Zijuan to stand back, and she still joked with Daiyu .

Lin Ze glanced at Zicuckoo, and saw that the corners of her mouth drooped slightly, as if she was extremely wronged, and the corners of her lips curled up with a bit of coldness.This Zicuckoo looks honest, but I'm afraid he has a big heart inside.It's really interesting. Could it be that she wanted to be Daiyu's maidservant from the very beginning? It's too cheap. Could it be that she didn't know that she was the second-class maidservant of the Lin family? Woolen cloth.

But it is said that Jia's mother can't stand long talks because of her age.Although there are many people joking and joking around, how can they chat casually because of their age?It is unavoidable to see that the time is getting longer, and he also shows a little tiredness.

Wang Xifeng is the best at observing words and expressions, so he smiled immediately: "Is the old ancestor tired?"

Jia Mu only said: "I'm not allowed to sleep this afternoon, and I'm going to be here to chat and laugh with you at night. I can't do it any more." Then she laughed and said, "All of you are hiding in the house during the day and slacking off at night. But when I get up, it hurts my old lady."

Wang Xifeng just smiled and came up to beat Jiamu's legs, and said with a smile: "The old ancestor is so energetic, even if he plays all night, it's no problem. It's just that it's too late today, and I see my sisters are a little sleepy. The ancestors wronged them and said that they were lazy during the day, so there is no reason to wrong people like this."

Everyone laughed when they said it, and Tanchun and the others came up to say a few words. Jia Mu knew it was time to rest, so she pulled Daiyu and said, "I want you to be here with me the most. Now that you live in Lixiangyuan, the place is far away, and it is not cheap to go back and forth. I have to ask you to go back earlier, lest the road be slippery in the cold weather and it will be difficult to walk."

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "The old ancestor doesn't have to worry anymore, it's only on me. I personally sent my sister back, can the old ancestor rest assured?"

Sure enough, Mother Jia smiled and nodded to Daiyu and said, "Don't look at your Lian's second sister-in-law as a hot-mouthed person, but her heart is the most meticulous. When we talk about it on weekdays, even if there are hundreds, A thousand men are not as capable as your Lian's second sister-in-law, you just entered the mansion, there are many things you don't understand, just ask your Lian's second sister-in-law, there is nothing you don't know."

Daiyu smiled and said to Wang Xifeng: "From that day on, I just hope my sister-in-law will love me."

"Hey, look at what my sister said." Wang Xifeng smiled, took Daiyu's hand, and said to the outside: "Hurry up and light up the lantern. Besides, the cloak is hot. If you have It’s cold, but be careful!” Once Ying finished his explanation, he resigned: “Old Ancestor, I won’t accompany you here, it’s important to send Sister Lin back first.”

Jia Mu spat lightly and just followed her.

Along the way, many words were unavoidable. Seeing Lin Ze leading Lin Lan walking behind, Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Good cousin, I have something to say to my ancestors but I can't ask. You said your Lian The second cousin gave you something nice, but I am very curious about what it is."

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Second Cousin Lian finds interesting things for me every day, such as doughnuts, sweets, ah! There is also a big windmill!" made a gesture.

Wang Xifeng covered her lips and said with a smile: "I don't think there is anything wrong with him when I'm at home. I didn't think about going to Yangzhou, but it would hurt people like this." Because he said to Lin Lan: "Good cousin, your Lian's second cousin Did brother tell you about me?"

Lin Lan blinked her eyes, and said doubtfully, "Second Cousin Lian and I both talked about the scenery outside, and didn't talk about things at home."

It turned out that Jia Lian was in Yangzhou, and even though he went to look for that Mei Niang every day to keep him tender, he never forgot to bring back some delicious and fun things for Lin Lan.Therefore, although Lin Ze's impression of him is not very good, it is not bad at all.What's more, Lin Lan is the happiest holding those gadgets every day, calling him "Second Cousin Lian" is very affectionate.

A few people chatted and laughed a few more times, and suddenly someone in the group said: "Here we are!"

Lin Ze looked back, and it turned out that Zijuan had said this out loud. Seeing Lin Ze looking over, his face blushed and he felt a little embarrassed.Wang Xifeng also took a look at Zijuan, then looked back at the door of Lixiangyuan and said, "Good sister, my sister-in-law will send it here." Then she smiled at Lin Lan: "Good cousin, if there is something delicious in the future, You have to remember sister-in-law."

Daiyu also thanked them with a smile, and asked the woman who sent them back to still carry the lantern to send Wang Xifeng back without mentioning it.

A group of people entered the Pear Fragrance Courtyard, and they saw Qing Xing talking to Licorice in the courtyard, Qing Mei just watched them with a smile on the side, seeing them coming back, she rushed up to greet them.

"Sister Qingmei, what were you talking about just now, you look so happy."

While changing Lin Lan's boots, Qingmei looked up at Lin Lan, only smiled and said, "It turned out that a letter was delivered from Yangzhou, and the second master will soon see someone coming."

Lin Lan opened her dark eyes and asked, "Who is it?"

"Is it Sister Lurou and Sister Hongxing?"

Over there, Lin Ze had already read the letter. Seeing that Qing Mei was going out to fetch water, and Lin Lan was going to follow her, he hurriedly reached out to hold her back. He only pointed at the tip of Lin Lan's nose and smiled, "What's the matter? Sister Lurou and Sister Hongxing are here. Are you unhappy?"

Lin Lan pouted her mouth and thought for a while before saying, "I'm happy too, but I'm not happy either."

"What is this nonsense?"

"Well, when Sister Lurou and Sister Hongxing are away, I can eat more. But when they are here, I am not allowed to eat more."

It was for this!Lin Ze couldn't help laughing. When he was at home, Lin Lan didn't even know how to write the word "less" when he was eating snacks. The maids who served him were all honest and dull, so they didn't dare to speak loudly, so they had to invite Lu Ruanhong. Xinglai, as time went by, Lin Lan didn't dare to eat any more snacks in front of the green and red apricots.

Just as he was talking, he heard the curtain lift.Lin Ze and Lin Lan looked back, and it turned out that it was Daiyu who had arrived.Qingmei was fetching water when she saw that Daiyu came over without even putting on her cloak, so she said to Qingxing, "Where are you going to be lazy again, the girl has to put on a cloak when she leaves the house, it's so cold God, if you're going to freeze, I won't beat you."

Qing Xing hurriedly said: "I was going to take it."

"Still stubborn, could it be that the girl is wearing a cloak? Why didn't I see it!"

Just as Daiyu was about to speak, she saw another person running in from outside the door, wearing a small purple jacket, with red cheeks.Qingmei just glanced at it, then stopped talking.

Seeing that Qingmei just glanced at her and then turned back to work, Zijuan felt uneasy, and seeing Daiyu looking at her with a half-smile, hurriedly handed over the cloak in her hand.Qing Xing reached out to pick it up, and frowned as soon as she touched it.Before he could speak, Bai Guo had already brought a cloak that was warmed by the smoke and put it on Daiyu.

Only then did Zijuan realize that he forgot to heat up the cloak because he came here in a hurry, no wonder the girl didn't wear it.Thinking of this, the blush on his face suddenly faded, leaving only paleness.

Daiyu is not a narrow-minded person, and Zijuan was sent by Jia's mother herself, so she didn't want to make things difficult for her.It's just that when she was going to come over at night, Zijuan interrupted and said that she was going to get the cloak, and Daiyu followed her, only bringing Qingxing over first.Now looking at the cloak in Qing Xing's hand, Daiyu's eyes drooped, such a thin cloak is for spring, what can she do with it now?

Lin Ze didn't want to take care of Jia's family either. Seeing Daiyu sitting at the table drinking tea, he smiled and sat next to her, and said, "It's late at night, and I won't be able to fall asleep after drinking tea."

Daiyu gave him a sidelong glance, and said with a smile, "You are only allowed to eat, but I am not allowed to eat?"

As soon as she came in, she saw that the ginkgo had already made tea on the table, and she knew that this was what Lin Ze wanted to eat, so she just brought it over and took a bite.Seeing Lin Ze coming over to talk to him, I thought it was funny, but I just said that on purpose.

Lin Ze knew that Daiyu liked to make fun of herself the most, so she just touched her nose and stopped talking.But Lin Lan couldn't bear it anymore, while Qingmei was washing his hands, he still leaned over to talk.

"Sister, did you know that Sister Lurou and Sister Hongxing are coming."

Daiyu responded with a smile, and said, "I didn't know it before, but I'll know it when you say it like this." Then, she looked at Lin Ze and asked, "I thought Sister Lurou and Sister Hongxing were Those who refuse to come to the capital."

Lin Ze also sighed softly.

When Jia Min first left, Lu Rou and Hong Xing had lost a lot of weight. If they hadn't had to take over the inner house affairs, they might not be able to support it.Later, Jia's mother wrote frequently, asking Jia Lian to pick up Daiyu's siblings to Beijing. Daiyu intended to bring green and soft red apricots, but the two of them said: "The wife is leaving, and the old lady is thinking about the girl. Miss, but during the filial piety period, what would it be like if no one was at home to keep filial piety for my wife." He said: "My wife treats us so kindly on weekdays, but now she is gone, and the girl will go to Beijing. Although we have little strength to bear , after all, it would be nice to share some for the girl."

Daiyu had no choice but to keep the two of them in Yangzhou.But in my heart I was very worried, and from time to time I would ask Qing Xing to write to Yangzhou to greet Yi Er, knowing that the two of them kept their filial piety and had to do housework with Zhang Nai and Fang Nai, it was even more regrettable.

Now that she heard that the two of them were finally willing to come to the capital, Daiyu couldn't be unhappy, so she smiled and pulled Lin Ze again and said, "Before she left, my wife said that she would give me sister Lurou and Hongxing. The only maidservants around me are Qingxing and Licorice, after all there are still two positions reserved for them."

Lin Ze nodded after hearing this, and said: "It should be so. Sister Lurou and Sister Hongxing have always treated you very well, and they often serve you in front of your wife. You must be careful and careful. With them, I am also very relieved ’” As he spoke, he stroked Daiyu’s hair again, and said with a smile: “Although you can manage things now, in my opinion, you are still the same as when you were a child.”

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, a blush appeared on her little face, and she felt a little embarrassed.

Qing Xing and Licorice looked at each other, then covered their mouths and laughed.The uncle and the girl have such a good relationship, and they feel very warm when they look at it.

The brothers and sisters were talking, Lin Lan was served by Qingmei again and had already been on the kang, and the rest of the maids also made the bed and made the quilts, incense and candles, and they all had things to do.Standing aside, Du Zijuan felt a bit out of place, but no one paid attention to her.I just listened to them talking behind Daiyu, and when I heard about the first-class maid, I felt a little bit wronged in my heart.

She was originally a second-class maid in front of Jia Mu, and she also envied that Pearl was given to Baoyu by the old lady, and she rose from the ranks of second-class maids to first-class in no time.Even those nuns still smiled when they saw her, with indescribable prestige.

When she heard that Mother Jia was going to give herself to Miss Lin, her heart became alive.He thought again, if he gave it to Miss Lin, it would be more than enough to be a first-class maid with his own ability, let alone an old lady who would agree with her, so there would be nothing else to say.But who knows, at the end of the day, Miss Lin said that the first-class maidservant around her had long since filled up, and even if she came, she could only be a second-class maid, she would not be reconciled.

I was thinking, who is the first-class maid next to Miss Lin, I want to meet him.Unexpectedly, when he entered the courtyard, he saw a servant girl who was about the same age as him, and another servant girl who looked two or three years older than him, but he couldn't see much.I want to ask about the other two, but no one pays attention to me.

But now listening to Uncle Lin and Miss Lin talking about it, it turns out that the two maids are still in Yangzhou!

What kind of thing is this, even if I let myself be a first-class maid first, so what?There are still two vacancies on the left and right, aren't there?

Zijuan pulled the handkerchief and bit her lower lip, feeling so wronged in her heart.When she thought of working with those eight or nine-year-old girls, her heart ached.Those little girls have nice names, such as "Green Crane", "Ibis", "Snow Goose", "Single Sparrow", isn't my "Zicuckoo" named after their names!

While talking, Lin Ze and Daiyu glanced at Zicuckoo indiscriminately. Seeing her biting her lower lip, her eyes were a bit obscure, and the alarm bell sounded in her heart, so she stopped talking.He just said: "Yu'er, this is the maid your grandmother gave you, right?"

Daiyu didn't understand it at first, but when she saw Lin Ze winking at her, she naturally understood, and she just smiled and said: "Yes, this sister Zijuan, I feel close to her when I see her, and she is wearing purple clothes. Clothes are most like the character of the azalea." There was a smile in the words, which made the azalea very flattered.

Lin Ze also smiled and said, "Sister Zijuan, because Yu'er's first-class maidservant has already filled up, so you are asked to be a second-class maid. I think I have wronged my sister."

Zijuan hurriedly said that he didn't dare, but Lin Ze laughed and said: "Sister Zijuan doesn't know, there are two first-class maids beside Yu'er, who are much older than us, and I think they won't be able to stay long in the future. I have to ask my sister to make up for the position."

After finishing speaking, I saw Zicuckoo smiled.Lin Ze curled his lips secretly. At that time, even if Lu Rou and Hong Xing are married, it will not be the turn of your Jia family's maid to come to my sister and point fingers.Thinking of this, his eyes fell on Zijuan's face, seeing that she was indeed pretty, he just smiled and said: "Sister Zijuan, we are newcomers and don't know the rules in this mansion, if there is anything to do, I have to trouble my sister."

Zijuan saluted with a smile and said, "Don't worry, sir, I will take care of the girl with me."

Daiyu only drank tea with her eyes downcast, and didn't talk to her. When Lin Ze smiled and talked to Zijuan, her lips curved slightly.Seeing that Lin Lan was joking with Qing Mei there, she also put down the tea cup and sat down by the kang.

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

Qingmei smiled and said, "It turned out that the second master asked me to bring Jiji here, but girl, you said, it's so late in this cold day..." Before she finished speaking, Lin Lan was already tugging on Qingmei's sleeve eagerly Shaking it up, she begged repeatedly: "Sister Qingmei, you are the best, just bring Jiji and play with me for a while! Just for a while!"

Seeing Lin Lan like this, Daiyu just smiled and said, "Sister Qingmei, look at Lan'er like this, if you don't bring Jiji here, he won't do it again."

Qingmei had no choice but to say: "It's okay, it's only this time, there will be no second time." As soon as the words fell, Lin Lan's cheers were heard, and Qingmei took a cloak and went outside.

After a while, a cage was brought in.Lin Lan leaned over to pick it up, hurriedly opened the small door of the cage, and took out the chubby little squirrel. Seeing that Daiyu was talking with Qingmei, she secretly put Chirp into her arms, Taking advantage of the situation, he lay down in the bed.

These, Lin Lan thought she had done an excellent job.But who would have thought that Lin Ze and Daiyu had already noticed it.

When Lin Ze saw the squirrel, his back stiffened imperceptibly.This squirrel is well-raised, has shiny fur, and loves to eat. Although he always said it was too noisy, it is undeniable that he also likes this squirrel very much.One of the reasons is probably that the squirrel was given by that person.

Lin Ze didn't want to mention that person's name anymore, he was his nobleman, and he was his commoner.Bridges return to bridges, roads return, Yangguan Road and the single-plank bridge have nothing to do with each other.

Unaware that the night was falling, Lin Ze saw that it was getting late, so he asked Qingmei to send Daiyu back in person.After listening to Lin Ze's words, Zijuan felt that the benefits would come later, and was very satisfied, so she smiled and went back without mentioning it.

However, as soon as Lin Ze just lifted the quilt, he saw that Lin Lan had already fallen asleep very soundly, and saw a bulging lump on his chest, so he pulled away an inch with a chuckle.Sure enough, the squirrel was not resistant to heat, and when there was an exit, it hurriedly jumped out of Lin Lan's chest, and landed on Lin Ze's shoulder.

Lin Ze touched Jiji's head with his hand, and cursed softly: "What a heartless thing, he treats you so well but he doesn't care about it at all." He said this, but he didn't know whether he was scolding the squirrel or the one who sent the squirrel away people.

After a while, Qingmei came in holding the lamp, saw that Jiji was sleeping between Lin Ze and Lin Lan, and went out with a smile on her lips.

On the second day, Daiyu took Lin Lan to greet Jia Mu, but Lin Ze went to Jia Zheng's and reported that he wanted to study.Jia Zheng always loved his children's studies the most. Hearing Lin Ze's words, he was very relieved, and even his normally stern face became much gentler.He also said: "If you want to study, why go outside, there is a family school at home, taught by the Confucian grandpa, and it is very cheap to get in and out."

So he personally asked someone to send Lin Ze there.

That school was originally a place to hide its ears and steal its bell, and Lin Ze already knew everything about that school in his heart.It's just that Shen Yu was right, since he wanted to study, he naturally couldn't look far away. He lived in Jia's house, so he came to the family school to stay first.When you find a bad sign, just pick it in front of Jia Zheng.

But what Lin Ze didn't expect was that as soon as he entered the school, he met someone he didn't expect.

Jia Baoyu didn't like reading in the first place. Although his mother doted on him and his grandmother took pity on him, he couldn't stand being reprimanded by Jia Zheng every day.It was absolutely necessary, so I invited myself to stay in that school for a while, one can make more friends, and the other is to avoid Jia Zheng's daily reprimand.

At homeschooling today, I was extremely bored.The theory of this family sounds good, and it is the place where they go to school, but looking around, they are all the children of the Jia family.What's the point of making friends?Jia Baoyu was drowsy and sleepy, when he saw a person coming in from the door, he opened his eyes wide and saw that it was Cousin Lin!

Lin Ze punched himself in the heart, you said it was not a good time for you to come, why did you come at this time!

Seeing Jia Baoyu arranging a seat for himself very enthusiastically, Lin Ze sat down with a smile, and his eyes fell on the seat beside him.I said, Jia Baoyu, you just want to sit with me and just talk straight, can you be so enthusiastic and scare people, okay?

How did Jia Baoyu know that Lin Ze was constantly slandering, he only felt that the happiest thing in coming to the family school was to see this elegant cousin Lin.He always likes to make friends with good-looking people. When the Lin brothers and sisters first came, he was determined to talk to that fairy-like sister, but his voice fell apart in a few clicks, and he couldn't catch up.Cousin Lin was too young and shy by nature, so he was too embarrassed to play with him.Only Cousin Lin, who is good-looking, always smiles at the corner of his mouth, and treats others kindly.

Jia Baoyu only regards Lin Ze as the same person as himself, and he cherishes flowers and loves flowers and is considerate of others.How could he know that Lin Ze only has a gentle skin on the outside, but he is a vengeful person on the inside!

Lin Ze didn't care about Jia Baoyu, and just wrote on the paper with peace of mind.

But this quietness is not what you want.Even if Jia Baoyu doesn't post up to talk to him, someone will come over and pick him up!Lin Ze listened to the jokes around him and ignored them, but the man seemed to be interested and kept talking.

Lin Ze was annoyed by what he said, and when he frowned and was about to explode, another person came in at the door.

I saw that this person was sixteen or seventeen years old, with thin cheeks, not tall, with a greasy head and a thin face, but a somewhat wretched appearance.Lin Ze frowned, thinking: Who are the people here!Then I heard the man yelling: "Sit down, sir, I have something to do today, and I will take it in for you. You can be careful, if you are naughty, just beat it out!" After that, he sat down on the chair and served tea. Come and eat without mentioning.

Seeing Lin Ze looking at the man, Jia Baoyu clung to his side and said in a low voice, "That's Grandpa Ru's grandson, named Jia Rui. It stands to reason that we should call him Brother Rui."

Lin Ze snorted and stepped aside.He didn't want to get so close to Jia Baoyu, what would it look like to others.But before he finished thinking, the person behind laughed and said in a low voice: "The two men are whispering, let's listen to it." The people behind laughed, look Looking at Jia Baoyu and Lin Ze, there was something deep in his eyes.

Lin Ze knew that these people had nothing to say, and he didn't want to cause trouble here.Jia Baoyu didn't make sense in the first place, even after hearing what he said, he didn't have any idea.He just went with them.

It's just that Lin Ze calmed down and didn't care too much about it, but Jia Rui started another trouble.

It turns out that Jia Rui is the most self-seeking person who has no intention of doing anything. He always uses public announcements to blackmail his children to invite him in school.Seeing Lin Ze coming here now, with a stranger's face, which he had never seen before, he thought to himself: I think he must be a poor relative from somewhere.Seeing Baoyu sitting with him again, he wondered again, thinking: Is this man Baoyu's friend?Thinking of this, he didn't dare to act lightly.

Baoyu was originally born very well, and Cao Gong once described him as: "The face is like the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the color is like the flowers of spring dawn, the temples are like cut by knives, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, the face is like peach petals, and the eyes are like autumn waves. Laughing means being angry and affectionate", "The face is like rice, the lips are like fat, and the words are always smiling. A natural coquettish, all in the eyebrows; all kinds of emotions in life, all piled up in the corners of the eyes."

Even if Lin Ze had some opinions on Jia Baoyu, he couldn't deny that Jia Baoyu's skin, coupled with his gentle and compassionate temperament, would make any girl captured.What's more, he hangs out with the inner curtain every day, and those maids want to curry favor with him, and when they have to play together, they lose their sense of restraint and become more and more wanton.

Lin Ze was in a daze, but he didn't know that Baoyu also felt that Lin Ze was good-looking.But seeing Lin Ze's gentle expression, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and graceful expressions between his brows and eyes, I couldn't be more fond of it.It's just that although Lin Ze often smiles, his temperament is not so friendly. After coming to Jia's mansion these days, he only said a few words when they first met, and they haven't talked together since then.

The two of them were originally very good-looking, and they were even more eye-catching when they sat together.Even though Lin Ze lowered his head to read and write, Jia Baoyu was not a troublemaker.Seeing that Lin Ze was serious about reading and was lazy to interrupt, and seeing a young man three or four places behind him, who also looked gentle and affectionate, Baoyu thought to himself: Although Cousin Lin is very good, but he is cold-tempered. Difficult to get close to, that young man seems to be very easy to make friends with, why don't I have a chat with that young man first.Thinking of this, he pretended to relieve himself, went out through the front door, came in through the back door, and sat next to the young man.

Seeing that Baoyu found another person to sit with, Jia Rui raised his eyes to look at Lin Ze, and saw that he looked indifferent as if he didn't pay attention, so he decided in his heart that this person must be a poor relative from somewhere.Immediately, he walked up to Lin Ze with his chest out, cleared his throat and said, "What's your name?"

……

No one pays attention to him!

Jia Rui's face flushed, and he couldn't get off the stage.Seeing that Lin Ze was still writing with his head down, he pressed the page of the book, only hummed and said, "Do you know, don't we have any rules here?"

Lin Ze raised his eyes and glanced at Jia Rui, but after only one glance, he lowered his head and began to write his own words again.

Jia Rui blushed a lot, and seeing a few students looking at him with smiles, he felt that his face was dull.Immediately shouted angrily: "Which poor relative are you from, and you are also standing up for your uncle Rui. I don't even ask about it. If you want to stand here, you must first show respect to your uncle Rui!"

Just as he was talking, three or four students passed the exam again. They were all with Jia Rui on weekdays and loved to bully the weak.Seeing that Jia Rui was going to use this new one for surgery, he was very happy to watch the show, and added to the fun, he said: "We can advise you not to stand tall and fight with Master Rui, you are the most talkative person in this place. If But if you don’t show some respect, you will have to suffer a lot.”

As he spoke, he weighed the inkstone in his hand.That posture is no different from that of a hooligan.

Lin Ze glanced at Jia Baoyu, saw that he was having a good chat with the elementary school student, and the two of them were holding hands together, cursing inwardly: This Jia Baoyu is really useless, not worth anything at all!But it's kind of funny to think about it. He didn't expect anyone to help him at the beginning, so why would he feel a little bit disappointed when the end came.

Jia Rui saw a look of disappointment on Lin Ze's face, so he glanced at Baoyu's direction, and was very proud to see that Baoyu didn't notice his side.He winked at the people around him again, and said: "You only give me valuable things, and I won't treat you badly."
