[Red Mansion] Raiders of the heir

The days passed quickly, and two months passed in a flash. Daiyu thought that she hadn't seen Jiamu for several months. Although she had sent many things, she thought that Jiamu was old enough to go and see her. So this day when we had dinner with Lin Wei, we just talked about it, and only explained that he was going to the Rongguo Mansion to talk to his grandmother.Lin Wei knew that Daiyu grew up there and got close to Mother Jia and the girls there, when she heard that she wanted to go there, she asked someone to pack up a lot of things, everything about food and clothing, all together. Tell her to take it to someone else.

When Daiyu arrived at the Rongguo Mansion, she found out that Jia Baoyu had moved into the garden with Sister Tanchun. However, when Mother Jia heard Daiyu say that she could only stay for three or five days, she decided to ask her to stay in her courtyard. stay here.However, Shi Xiangyun happened to be there at this time. Seeing that Lin Daiyu only lived for two days, he couldn't help but pouted, and said, "It's rare that Sister Lin comes here once, and she's in such a hurry. How many important things can happen at home? It's not that day." Will it fall every day?"

Lin Daiyu heard her talking childishly, so she glanced at her with a smile, and said: "Even if there is a big event at home, the sun will still fall every day. I am not a god, so I can take care of the affairs of the day."

"No matter! Since that's the case, Sister Lin will still live with me. A few days ago, Sister Bao went to the palace, and Sister Lin seldom comes here now. It's just boring." Xiangyun said.

Daiyu also knew about Xue Baochai's entry into the palace, Lin Wei never kept secrets from her about important matters, and discussed with her no matter what, it also meant to ask her to listen and think more, and often said some truths on the sidelines.But because Xue Pan was injured on the surface, everyone in the Rongguo Mansion didn't mention Daiyu to Xue Baochai very much. Even in front of Daiyu, only Xiangyun, who can't speak his mind, can talk when he wants to.However, with so many things going on in the Lin family, Daiyu didn't want to talk too much about the Xue family, so she just said, "Naturally I will follow you, but now I want to follow you." It is said that the house in the house belonged to Daiyu, but now the Xiaoxiang Pavilion belongs to Xiangyun.

Seeing that the two of them were getting close, Jia's mother didn't mention her thoughts. She only kept the two of them and Sister Tanchun having dinner in front of her. After talking for a while, she asked Xiangyun to take Daiyu to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion to resettle.

It was the first time for Lin Daiyu to enter this Grand View Garden. Walking all the way in the garden, the exotic flowers, grasses, small bridges and flowing water were all exquisite, which made her feel very good. She saw a small yellow flower that couldn't name it blooming in full bloom. , I stretched out my hand and wanted to pinch it, and said: "It's really a good place, it makes my eyes dazzled."

When Shi Xiangyun saw it, he picked it off first, reached out and inserted her hand to her temple, and said with a smile: "What a handsome beauty!"

"See if I don't tear your mouth apart!" Daiyu blushed, ran after Shi Xiangyun, and the two entered the Xiaoxiang Hall quarreling.But Daiyu looked at the few stalks of thin bamboo in the yard, and couldn't help thinking of the small courtyard where she lived in Yangzhou. She immediately liked it and sighed: "It really is a quiet courtyard."

Shi Xiangyun said: "I think so too. I liked this place when I first saw it, and Fang asked the old lady to keep it for me."

Lin Daiyu laughed when she heard the words, and when they entered the house, Biyuan and Qingyan hurriedly cleared away, and the Zijuan followed her at once, Daiyu was slightly startled when she saw her, the three of them were already in and out I'm busy.Shi Xiangyun pulled Daiyu into the inner room, rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Sister, do you feel that something is missing?"

"What's missing?" Lin Daiyu wondered.

Shi Xiangyun sighed heavily, and said, "Sister Lin really has no conscience. In the past, the second brother only thought of you, and you have been here for half a day without asking where he is?"

After hearing this, Lin Daiyu stretched out her hand and poked Xiangyun's finger, and said angrily, "You are the one who can talk, where else can you be? You must have gone to school, and you can only play around all day long." of?"

Hearing what Daiyu said, Xiangyun was slightly taken aback, took the sewing box casually, picked up a purse he was working on, and started sewing one by one, saying: "If you want to be serious, it's for studying. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in this life. I thought it was only my sister who didn't like these things. My second brother even had famines with me several times, all because of what I said about his economic career. The second brother also said that you understand him Yes, that's why I never gave birth to you, it turns out that my sister is just a deserted person, and she doesn't care about him."

Daiyu also rummaged through the sewing box and saw that she had accumulated a lot of work, so she joked suspiciously: "It's all about making one. You make so many things, but who do you want to hang on your body?" Is it full?"

Xiangyun raised his eyes and rolled her eyes to make a face, and said, "Would you marry me if I hung it all up for you?"

As soon as Lin Daiyu heard this, she threw her head up and scratched her, and for a while the two of them rolled on the couch and had an itch. Picking up one to do with her, casually said: "I think the second cousin Bao is a smart one, and sooner or later he will be able to open his mind. You have to take it to your heart when you study. How could anyone force it? Wei'er is here. The family reads until midnight every day, and it has never stopped for so many years, if you just ask someone to force you, who can hold him every day?"

Shi Xiangyun nodded when he heard it, and said with deep sympathy: "That's true. Last time I heard someone say that my cousin passed the exam at the beginning of the year? He's only a little old, so it can be seen that he is promising."

Daiyu said: "Wei'er said that even if it is so, you have to work as hard as before, otherwise the next time you enter the arena, you will definitely lose your name to Sun Shan. If you say that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves and die on the beach, it is most unscrupulous. I don’t know where I learned these nonsense. I really can’t do anything about him, and I often look like an out-of-shape person, but when I work hard, even my father didn’t worry about him when I was young, but he is very assertive.”

Xiangyun fell down on the couch with a smile when he heard this, and after a rest, he said, "Sure enough, my sister and I are in the same family, and that's what people love and hate the most." Daiyu also laughed.

Then Xiangyun said again: "I have something rare to tell you, but the second elder brother didn't go to school, but went to find his good friend. My sister didn't know, but the Zhen family who just came to Beijing was originally In Jinling, there is a child named Baoyu in his family. I heard that the second elder brother went there and came back to describe it to us. The two of them actually look like twin brothers. Even Mrs. Zhen didn’t know which one. It's her son. The second elder brother hit it off with Zhen Baoyu immediately. He only said that he didn't even bother to say a few words when they met. Today, when he heard that the man came back from the academy, he went to Zhen's house early in the morning. You Are you saying it's rare?"

Daiyu felt fresh when she heard it, and sighed: "It's really strange! There is such a strange thing."

"Second elder brother is now in the mood to go to school again, pestering the old lady every day to go to the Xishan Academy in Naluoshizi, what is said inside and outside is Baoyu from the Zhen family, even the sisters have to back off. The old lady He said that he has made progress, but he has a good family education and is close to home. The old lady who suddenly went there to eat a meal can not be relieved. Don't ask to bring it, you have to do the laundry yourself, even the wife didn't say anything after hearing it, and I don't know why it's just that he is hot." Xiangyun said.

Daiyu pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "No matter what the reason is, it's a bit interesting to hear you say that. It made me think that if the second cousin really went, I would quietly read the book and say that it is not allowed to pass two days." Nian is really good, there are so many things at home, and he just forgets about things in school."

The morning of the two talking and laughing passed quickly, Daiyu's things were packed, and Jia Mu had already sent someone to tell her to have dinner, so they went to Jia Mu's place together.

Daiyu only brought Zijuan over here, and seeing that the other girls hadn't arrived yet, she said to Jia Mu: "Everything is packed, and I would like to thank my grandmother for calling Zijuan to help me. I just remembered something when I saw her." , when I came here when I was young, my grandmother kept telling her to follow me because she was afraid that I would not be used to it, but now I come here less, so I really don’t need to ask her to support me for nothing, I’d better stay in front of my grandmother and serve her.”

After so many years, Mother Jia also knew that Daiyu would not come to Rongguo Mansion. She didn't pick her up when she first came to Beijing, and she still didn't come after Lin Hai went. , and said: "That's fine, I'm relieved to have you and Yun'er by my side." Then he only ordered Zicuckoo to pack up and go back to the main room.

At that moment, Tanchun and the others came over, and Mother Jia ordered the meal to be passed on. Just as she sat down, she saw Jia Baoyu enter the room listlessly, and Mother Jia put down her chopsticks and said, "Why are you so fast?" Just came back? Go and wash up and come over to eat."

Jia Baoyu sighed and sat on the side, and said after a long while: "No need, I just had some snacks at Zhen's house, and I don't feel hungry. He has only been back for half a day, and he has left again. Alas, the old ancestor can tell the master Alright, when can I take the exam?"

Seeing that he was only interested in going to Xishan Academy with Zhen Baoyu, Jiamu couldn't resist, so she pulled her face and said, "Come on, why don't you even have to eat? You go wash your face first, and I will rest after a while." Just tell your old man."

Jia Baoyu stood up in a daze, and suddenly glanced at Daiyu, his eyes lit up, and he was swept away like a busy wind, and shouted outside the house: "Wait for me, come as soon as you go."

Because of Daiyu's presence, Jia Baoyu struggled with the whole meal, and couldn't even taste the taste of the food. Finally, he changed his mind and shouted in Jia's mother's arms: "The old ancestor still has a few days to eat." Let’s talk to the master again, I will play with my sister for a few days first, and it’s hard for my sister to come over, if I go, it will be less polite.”

Then Jia Mu laughed and said, "You can do whatever you say."

However, just after the meal was over, someone said that the master asked Baoyu to meet him in the study. Jia Baoyu was thinking of going to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion with Daiyu, and he was shocked on the spot when he heard this.Seeing this, Jiamu couldn't bear it, so she had to coax her with nice words, and asked her to follow her out.

But Baoyu said that even Jia Huan and Jia Lan would be there at that time. Jia Zheng saw that although he was a little mentally ill, he was much more upright than Jia Huan. He thought he had just returned from Zhen's house and was tired, so he asked: "I heard that you went to Zhen's house this morning?"

"Yes, I went to see Zhen Baoyu, we made an appointment to talk together next time." Baoyu replied respectfully.

Jia Zheng nodded and said: "Well, I heard in the past two days that you only pestered the old lady to go to the Xishan Academy, and said that you wanted to study with Baoyu from Zhen's family, so you could have a companion. I thought You only know how to play around at home, and you can calm down when you go, so I signed up all three of you, and you go back and prepare well, and try it tomorrow."

Jia Baoyu had just rested his mind, and when he heard Jia Zheng's words, he felt like a bolt from the blue sky, but just as he was thinking about saying something and pushed it off for a few days, Jia Zheng said again: "Don't have any wrong thoughts, this Xishan Academy The most famous ones, no one coaxing you to do whatever you want, if you have a headache tomorrow, you don’t have to think about it in the future, I entrusted a lot of people to ask you, you I can think about it."

Jia Baoyu went back to Yihong Courtyard listlessly, after much deliberation, he couldn't decide whether to pay attention, if he didn't go this time, he wouldn't have another chance in the future, so he couldn't bear to part with Daiyu, so he sat for a while before going to Xiaoxiang Hall to go.

After hearing what Baoyu said, Xiangyun said angrily: "You are really worthless. You still think about such a good opportunity. Sister Lin will come back in three or five days. I will give it to you when I see it." You sign up!"

Because of this matter, Jia Baoyu was listless all afternoon, just sat and watched Daiyu and Xiangyun doing needlework, and when the sun turned red at dusk, the two of them met in the yard to sit and drink tea Go, see Baoyu still just sitting like that, feel funny, teased for a while, Daiyu said: "I heard from my younger brother that Xishan Academy is the best. It's rare that the second uncle made an idea for you. It's time to see him seriously." Mr. Jian, is it also the second cousin's wish?"

Seeing that Daiyu said the same thing, Jia Baoyu thought about meeting Zhen Baoyu a few times, finally nodded, and said sullenly: "Then I won't be with my sister tomorrow, you must wait for me to come back. Seeing that he had become such an idiot again, Xiangyun wrinkled his nose and let out a snort before going out. Daiyu also went out with a smile.

Jia Baoyu saw that it was getting late, so he had to go back to Yihong Courtyard to ask someone to clean it up.Seeing Xiren, Qingwen and the others bustling around, I feel a burst of regret in my heart, thinking that if I really went to Xishan Academy, even they will be alone in the future, I feel that no one can understand my thousands of thoughts , a person sat in the yard in a daze, and didn't want to talk anymore.

Not to mention how many people laughed and how many people were sad that day, the sun still fell quickly. When they got up early the next day, Baoyu, Jia Huan and Jia Lan came to Jiamu's place to say goodbye together. There were two black bruises under Baoyu's eyes, and she even sneezed when she went out, feeling even more distressed.After the three of them were sent to the car, Fang asked the attacker to ask what was going on. Only then did he realize that Baoyu sat in the courtyard for half the night last night with a lot of worries, and no one could pull him back into the house. His mother sighed again when she heard this, thinking that Jia Zheng was forcing him like this at such a young age.

However, when the three of them came back in the afternoon, what the whole family didn't expect was that the only one who passed the exam was Jia Lan. Speaking of which, the gentleman didn't ask much about the essays, but just asked them some casually, just chatting. The three people who made the selection couldn't tell why.After hearing this, Jia Zheng saw that Baoyu and Jia Huan were not pleasing to the eye, and wished to be punished again, but it was a pity that it was the first time he was shamelessly going to Zhen's mansion to give gifts.

But Jia's mother didn't care. Seeing that Baoyu was only sneezing for a while, she just sent him back to rest and ordered someone to invite the imperial physician. Seeing this, Jia Zheng couldn't say anything.
