[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

But Mingyan saw a figure swaying behind Basho coming out at this time, and his face changed in fright.He reached out and grabbed Jia Baoyu's sleeve, barely escaped.But just when Mingyan was about to move, he heard the figure standing still, "Is it Brother Ai?"

When Mingyan heard this name, she must be Miss Shi.

Hearing this, Baoyu also straightened up and smiled, "Sister Yun, you are here." As he said that, he walked two steps there, and saw Xiangyun standing there with a blushing face and a slightly loose bun on his head. .Compared with the free and easy and bright in the weekdays, it has a charming charm.Baoyu's mind fluttered, he held onto Xiangyun's hand and said, "Sister Yun, you look so pretty today."

When Xiangyun heard this, his face turned even redder.Her hand was held by Baoyu, and her mind became more and more dizzy after drinking alcohol. She only felt that the person she had liked for many years was in front of her, so she couldn't help but took Baoyu's hand and said coquettishly: "Brother love, you go I can't find you anywhere. Can you stay with me?"

Baoyu responded with a smile. Seeing that Xiangyun's cheeks were flushed, and the mist was shining with a special charm, he said to Mingyan: "You can say it at the meeting table, just say that I have a stomachache, and I won't go back." He took Xiangyun away.

The rest of Mingyan stood there and smacked his lips, strange, why did his second master pull the girl away like this?If she was seen by others, what reputation would Miss Smith have?Thinking about it this way, he also knew that the master's affairs had his own opinions. He was a slave, even if he had some words, he couldn't say anything to the master.He has been with Baoyu for so many years, and he is used to knowing Baoyu's temperament.Seeing that Baoyu took Shi Xiangyun's hand and left, he had to touch his nose and think of a way to go back to the banquet and tell Jia Zheng to listen.

As soon as Jia Zheng heard this, he put the cup in his hand heavily in front of him, "It's useless, you've been ignorant all day long, and you've been raised so delicately, how can you look like a man!" After finishing speaking, he thought again He scolded Mingyan severely, but finally gave up the idea because there were so many people at the banquet.He just stared at Ming Yan and said, "I can't get out of my body now, when I have time someday, I want the skins of you little bastards first!"

Mingyan was so frightened that she shook her clothes and trembled, Wei Wei responded.Jia Zheng waved him away impatiently, and saw Bowling Hou Shi Nai smiling at him when he turned his head: "Second cousin is too strict, Brother Bao is now at an age where he loves to play, so it is reasonable to be a little indulgent." After that, he smiled and drank the wine in his hand.

Just as Jia Zheng was about to speak, Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding laughed and said, "Brother, this is really a joke. Our children are all used to Hu Dahai, and they have been indulged to the limit in the past. On the contrary. Brother Bao from the second cousin's family is already as handsome and elegant as a zhilanyushu at a young age, and he will be able to achieve great success in the future."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Zheng felt that every sentence spoke to his heart, and the anger caused by Baoyu's lack of progress also subsided a lot.But the others at the table just laughed and said nothing.The words of the two Shijia brothers really echoed people. Who doesn’t know that three of the four brothers of the Shijia are currently training in the military camp. Although the youngest, Shi Qingyun, is not old enough to enter the military camp, he was taught severely at home. of.How could it be that "indulgence has no margin" as Zhongjinghou Shi Ding said.

Glancing at Jia Zheng's happy expression, the two brothers of the Shi family looked at each other and smiled in unison.The aunt's house used to look good, but in the past few years, it has become more and more blind.These words have to be weighed by individuals, but when Jia Zheng heard these words, he believed them without even thinking about them.snort!There was a sneer on Shi Nai's lips, no wonder Jia Zheng had been stagnant in the position of Wai Lang in the Ministry of Industry for five years without being promoted.

Everyone was talking and laughing in front of them, when they heard the sound of horseshoes running in a hurry.Jia Zhengcai stood up and saw Jia Amnesty and Lin Ruhai coming with Jia Lian. Before he could ask anything, an eunuch came in with a yellow silk in his hand and sang loudly: "The virtuous concubine concubine rewards——!"

Jia Zheng, Jia Amnesty and others hurriedly set up an incense case, and everyone knelt down to accept the order.

When the eunuch finished singing, he leaned over and pulled Jia Zheng to help him up, and said with a smile: "Master Zheng, please get up quickly, the empress is always concerned about Master Zheng's body in the palace, as long as Master Zheng takes care of herself."

Jia Zheng's eyes turned red, and he said tremblingly: "Thank you for your concern, my lord, I respectfully invite my lord to be safe, and wish the emperor the great peace."

The eunuch smiled and nodded, and just as he was about to leave, he heard a galloping whip, a neigh, and another eunuch sang: "Duan Concubine Empress Rewards—!"

Before everyone in Jia's family could react, Xue Pan lifted up his clothes and knelt down, listening respectfully to the eunuch's long list of items, which was no less than what the virtuous concubine gave before.After the eunuch finished singing, Xue Pan said loudly, "Thank you, Concubine Duan, for the reward!"

As he said that, he stood up following the movement of the little eunuch supporting him, took out a piece of silver from his bosom and put it in the little eunuch's hand, and said with a smile: "Madam Lao is worried, I want my father-in-law to run this trip, Thanks for your hard work."

The little eunuch was also very funny, Xue Pan handed over the silver, and he didn't back down. He put the yellow silk in Xue Pan's hand as soon as he put it in his sleeve, and said with a smile: "Duan Concubine Empress, bathe in the holy grace." , Many of these things today are rewarded by the old sage himself, so Uncle Xue is blessed." Then, he said in a moderately high-pitched voice: "Uncle Xue, the Supreme Emperor always misses you, If you can’t manage the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you still have to come like you.”

After hearing this, Xue Pan smiled and took another ingot of silver and put it in the young eunuch's hand, just smiled and said: "Thank you for your advice, Eunuch. The Concubine Duan is in the palace, so I need to worry about it."

The little eunuch took two ingots of silver in a row, then nodded with a smile on his face and said: "Naturally, naturally." After finishing speaking, he flicked the whisk and was about to leave.But because he saw the eunuch who came to announce the reward for the virtuous concubine, he raised his eyebrows and sneered: "People can do it, and dogs can do it too. Look at yourself without urinating."

The eunuch glared at the little eunuch, but he heard the little eunuch sneer and said: "I said, Mr. Qin, can't you see which palace the emperor's heart is in? Don't blame our family." I didn't mention that this concubine is living in Chengqian Palace now."

After saying that, he sneered and shook his whisk and left.The rest of the Qin eunuch who proclaimed the decree for the virtuous concubine was very uncomfortable. Thinking of Xue Pan's magnanimity, and thinking of how favored the concubine Duan is in Ningshou Palace, he couldn't help complaining about Jia Yuanchun's uselessness Come.Immediately, he didn't look good towards Jia Zheng, and he was lazy even to perfunctory, and he only took people with him and went back.

These two decrees came quickly and urgently, leaving the incense table full of rewards, making people a little bit dumbfounded.Xue Pan didn't care that Jia Zheng hadn't recovered yet, he had already sent a few servants to pack up the things that Baochai had rewarded on the incense table and went back to Lixiangyuan.

Lin Ze looked amused at the back, Xue Pan seemed to have come back after wandering around the door of the ghost gate, looking at the current appearance, it really meant to change his mind and start a new life.Thinking of the little eunuch saying repeatedly that it was a gift from "Duan Concubine", Lin Ze rubbed his chin.Tsk, I didn't expect Xue Baochai's methods to be so clever, and he was promoted to the imperial concubine so quickly.

Lin Ruhai's eyes flickered at the side, seeing Xue Pan orderly ordering the boy to pack up, he also let out a long sigh in his heart.After all, the Xue family is relying on the girl in the family to get up.The old sage was probably also aroused thoughts that he shouldn't have. The old sage hadn't asked about the matter of the previous dynasty for a long time, but when he heard the little eunuch talk about the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Lin Ruhai's eyes darkened slightly.The old sage's hand may be stretched forward.

Naturally, the previous rewards were to be brought to the female relatives in the backyard to make Jia Mu happy, so Jia Zheng ordered people to send all the rewards from Yuan Chun to Jia Mu, and also briefly mentioned the words of rewards from the two empresses in the palace at the same time. carry.Mother Jia was so happy from ear to ear when she saw these rewards, but when she heard this, the smile on her face faded by five or six points.He just smiled and said, "Since it's a gift from your mother, we should offer it well." After that, he asked Mrs. Wang to take people to open the Buddhist hall.

He smiled at Nan'an Concubine and Beijing Wang Taifei: "I'm not afraid that the two concubines will laugh at me. At my age, I have never seen anything. It's just that although these are not very expensive, they are also the wishes of the empress. It's hard for her to think about my old bones, hey, our mother is the most virtuous and graceful."

Princess Beijing smiled faintly, but said nothing.Concubine Nan'an said: "Naturally, the concubine Xiande is good, and the old sage praises her." After finishing speaking, she said to Mother Jia: "I heard that the girls in your family are the most beautiful, but now the concubine Xiande has a good name. We've heard about it too, why don't you bring out the other three girls in your family to show us?"

When Jia Mu heard this, she clapped her hands and smiled, "What kind of looks are they? How can they catch the eyes of the concubine?"

"What kind of talk is this?" Concubine Nan'an smiled and said, "Not to mention that the concubine Xiande has won the holy favor, your girl is good, we have all heard of it. But I didn't have a chance to meet you. Today, I take advantage of the old Fengjun's It's my birthday, I have to be strong again, I need to see you."

When Jia Mu saw what Concubine Nan'an said, she said to Yuanyang: "Since it is the kindness of the concubine, I invite the girls to come here to talk about it." She said with a smile: "I will not hide what the concubine said. A girl can't compare to the one trained by the empress dowager."

Concubine Nan'an laughed again.

Not long after, I heard a charming voice laughing in my head first: "I knew it was grandma here, otherwise no one would think of us!" Just as he was talking, he saw Mu Qing pulling Daiyu with a smile Daiyu stepped forward to salute everyone one by one, and she let go of Daiyu's hand when she was in front of Concubine Nan'an, and smiled in front of Concubine Nan'an, "Grandmother, grandma, why do you only want to see the sisters of the Jia family? You don't want to see me either?"

Concubine Nan'an smiled and nodded Mu Qing's forehead, then smiled at Jia's mother again: "Old Feng Jun is laughing, this is my granddaughter, Qing'er."

Jia's mother hurriedly laughed and said, "I wonder where the girl came from. She was born so smart. I never thought that all the good girls have gone to your Nan'an Palace." Then she pointed to Liu Han and said, "I see you, grandniece, too." She is gentle and shy, much better than the girls in our family."

Concubine Nan'an smiled and said: "Old Lord Feng praised them too much." As she spoke, her eyes fell on Daiyu, Yin also smiled and said, "Princess Yong'an is here?" As she spoke, she seemed to remember What's the matter, he hurriedly laughed again: "Look at my memory, I only think that Princess Yong'an is the goddaughter of the empress, but I forgot that she is also the granddaughter of Lao Fengjun."

After saying this, the smile on Mother Jia's face faded a bit.

Concubine Nan'an and Concubine Beijing saw the three girls of the Jia family for the first time, so they gave Yingchun and the others gifts one by one. Seeing Shi Xiangni and Shi Xiangxia standing there, one bright and one elegant, they laughed again Said: "It's been a long time since I saw you, and you are here but you don't come to me!"

When Shi Xiangni and Shi Xiangxia were young, they often went to the Nan'an Palace as guests. When they heard Nan'an Concubine say this, they both stepped forward and laughed: "The concubine has wronged us to death. It's not that the younger sister is pulling us to draw flower lots. We all I was punished with a lot of wine, and the concubine should punish my little sister!"

Mu Qing opened his eyes wide, pointed at Shi Xiangni and Shi Xiangxia and said, "I never thought you two would tear down my stage like this, let's compete tomorrow!"

Concubine Nan'an loves to watch the bickering and joking among these girls, and she knows that the sisters have a deep relationship, and the more they quarrel, the closer they become, so she doesn't care about it.After looking at the positions of Yingchun and the others, he asked in confusion, "Why don't you see Miss Yun?"

Jia's mother was also puzzled and said: "I just saw Yun girl. It's only been a while, why has she disappeared?"But suddenly he saw Cui Ling running towards him, his face full of panic.Mother Jia's heart skipped a beat, before she could ask, Cui Su raised her voice and said, "I beg the old lady to decide, our girl was beaten by attackers!"
