[Red Mansion] Sir, I'm a rough man

Qin Keqing is dead.

Grandma Xiao Rong had an emergency at night and went there.

When the news got out, Rongning and Ningfu were in chaos.

This "emergency" came too suddenly, plus the incident of the old man's apparition the day before, the mansion said everything, some said that she was seduced by the old man, some said that she was hanged, and some said that she jumped Those who have been flooded... No matter what, they are dead.

When Jia Jing went, Jia Wan wasn't there, so he didn't see the excitement of the weddings and weddings of the aristocratic family, but now he has gained a lot of knowledge.

The gate of Ningguo Mansion was opened, and the lanterns on both sides shone like daytime, people came and went chaotically, and the cries shook the mountains and mountains.

Jia Dairu, Dai Xiu, Jia Chi, Jia Xiao, Jia Dun, Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, Jia Cong, etc., all the Jia family's children he knew or didn't know, all came. Arranging various matters: those who accompany guests, those who buy coffins, those who invite the Qin Tianjian to choose a date, those who send obituaries, and the most troublesome one is the monks and priests: there are three Dharma altars set up in the mansion. Hundreds of monks and priests chanted the scriptures day and night for 1 days.

At this moment, he didn't mention the lack of money. He threw out a lot of money, and no one came to ask Jia Wan for a penny.

Although Jia Wan is the serious master of Ningguo Mansion, because of his young age, he was not assigned any important errands, and he was only asked to help accompany the guests, sit and talk with some peers, or stroll around the garden.

Jia Wan was listening to people talking about the scenery and customs in Shaanxi, when he suddenly saw a head squeezed in at the door, it was Si Yue who he ordered to stare at Jia Zhen quietly, Si Yue was gesticulating desperately, wiped his neck and hanged himself, so don't worry look like.

Jia Wan came out after apologizing, and without waiting for him to open his mouth, Siyue pointed at Dengxian Pavilion, who was still alive: "Master! It's amazing, something big is going to happen!"

Jia Wan saw that he was in a hurry and didn't bother to ask carefully, so he ran to Dengxiang Pavilion quickly.

The gate of Dengxian Pavilion was closed tightly, and there was no movement inside, and the people outside did not know where they had gone. As soon as Jia Wan stepped up the steps, he heard a "clang" sound inside, like a water basin or something. Jia Wan didn't care about the sound of being overturned, and kicked it up.

Just hearing a "bang", the door opened, and the light suddenly shone into the dark mourning hall, making the two entangled figures inside freeze instantly.

Both of them were dressed in plain clothes. The little girl Ruizhu was desperately supporting the pillar in front of her with her hands. Jia Zhen covered her mouth with one hand and grabbed the hair at the back of her head with the other. blood, eyes full of fear.

The brazier on the ground was kicked over, and the straw paper and soot inside were scattered all over the ground, still burning sporadically.

"Brother, what are you doing here?"

Jia Zhen's face was livid, she let go of her hands, coughed dryly, and said with her hands behind her back: "This little girl is very violent. When she saw her master gone, she wanted to touch the pillar to be buried. Fortunately, I stopped quickly, otherwise she would have followed her."

Ruizhu's tears flowed down, almost falling down.

Being able to silence the murder and say it in such a righteous tone, Jia Wan's understanding of Jia Zhen has risen to a new level, and now he is too lazy to talk to him, "Oh", said: "Such a loyal girl is really rare. It just so happens that the people serving me are almost gone... I want this girl."

Without waiting for Jia Zhen to speak, she ordered: "In April, help Miss Ruizhu to our courtyard and let Yuzhan take care of her."

Si Yue responded, and came in and dragged Rui Zhu out with half support and half hug, Rui Zhu looked at Jia Wan who was standing at the door against the backlight with hazy eyes, and cried loudly with a "wow".

Jia Wan glanced at Jia Zhen, and said with a half-smile, "Brother, my condolences."

Turning around to leave, Ruizhu grabbed the sleeve of her sleeve: "Master, our grandma still has a little girl named Baozhu, I beg you to take it too! Otherwise, otherwise..."

……

In Jiawan's courtyard, Ruizhu had changed his clothes and combed his hair again. Baozhu's eyes were red, and he saluted Jiawan again. Grandma... didn't die of illness."

This Jia Wan knew it, not only Jia Wan knew it, but the whole family knew it, but still asked: "How to say?"

Ruizhu wiped away tears and said: "Because the night before yesterday ... was noisy all night, and yesterday was also noisy during the day, so the master fell asleep before the first shift at night, and I slept more deeply than usual.

"Later, when it was almost the second watch, I woke up suddenly and realized that the master had disappeared.

"I hurriedly called Baozhu to look for it together, but I didn't find anyone after searching inside and outside the house, so I had to wake up Uncle Xiaorong, who went to find Uncle Zhen again, and brought people to look around. It is said that grandma entered Huifang Garden but did not come out...

"We went to Huifang Garden, but there were none. The gate of the garden was locked at night, and it was impossible to go out. We continued to search, and finally saw a pair of embroidered shoes by the lotus pond, where things came out the night before. , I made it for grandma with my own hands...and our grandma's..."

She wept uncontrollably, and said: "Our grandma's big clothes are floating in the lotus pond... The uncle sent people into the water to find them, but they didn't find them until dawn... The uncle rewarded the silver, let us say , Grandma is suffering from a sudden illness..."

Seeing her crying sadly, Jia Wan didn't know what to say, so she just asked Yuzhan to take care of her, but Ruizhu insisted on guarding Qin Keqing's spirit. Jia Wan thought that Jia Zhen would never do anything to her again, so she decided to Follow her and Baozhu to go.

The scenery of this funeral opened the eyes of Jia Wan, a modern person. For a full 49 days, monks and priests chanted scriptures, day and night. ... Jia Zhen even spent money to donate an official to Jia Rong for the sake of looking good, but it was a pity that Jia Rong was reprimanded by the holy staff not long ago, so it failed to do so.

After 49 days at Huifang Garden, the funeral will be held, and after the funeral, there will be a three-day Anling Dojo in Tiekan Temple.

The conditions in Tiekan Temple were poor, so Wang Xifeng took Baoyu, Qin Zhong, and Jia Wan to live in Mantou Temple not far away.I don't want Qin Zhong and the smart little nun from the Mantou'an to see the right eye, and they are tired of being together all day long, making Jia Wan feel that Qin Keqing is worthless, and impatient to stay here for a long time. The next morning, I went back city.

Three days later, Jia Zhen, Jia Rong, You Shi, etc. who had completed the Anling Dojo returned to Ningguo Mansion.

Jia Wan had been waiting for a long time, and the three of them had just sat down and had a cup of tea when Jia Wan came in: "Brother, I have something to tell you."

Jia Zhen looked tired and said: "Today is late, let's talk tomorrow if you have something to say!"

Jia Wan said, "It's very important."

Jia Zhen thought of the batch of things he was going to bring, and she looked a little pale, and said: "Let's make a long story short!"

Jia Wan said: "Everyone who has nothing to do with it, go down. If sister-in-law and Brother Rong are interested, you can stay and listen."

The girls looked at Jia Zhen, Jia Zhen waved them out, and said impatiently, "Can we talk now?"

Jiawan now, too lazy to follow those vain etiquette, walked closer, propped his two long legs, and sat sideways on the armrest of the grand master's chair. The gesture of courtesy was actually quite attractive to him, he smiled slightly at Jia Zhen, and said: "Brother, my father devoted himself to cultivating Taoism during his lifetime, I think there should be someone between us who can inherit his father's career."

Jia Zhen frowned and said, "What? You want to be a Taoist priest? You're messing around."

It doesn't mean much to object.

Anyway, he has no feelings for this younger brother, nor does he have a good opinion of him. He stays in the mansion and gets in the way of his hands, feet and eyes, but he leaves clean.

Jia Wan said: "Brother, I made a mistake. What I mean is...I want to invite you, Brother, to become a Taoist monk."

He spoke every word and every word clearly, and the three of them were stunned, and it took a long time to react.

Jia Zhen changed color suddenly: "Do you know what you are talking about? Are you crazy?"

You Shi also said angrily: "What are you talking about? How can a younger brother ask his elder brother to become a Taoist monk?"

Jia Rong looked at Jia Wan and wondered if she was dreaming.

His impression of his little uncle is that he is young, good-looking, good-natured, soft-eared and easy-to-handle... He never dreamed that this easy-going little uncle would say such a thing one day .

Let his father become a Taoist monk?

Is he crazy?

His father is the lord of the Ningguo Mansion, a hereditary third-rank general, and the most greedy and lustful... let him become a Taoist priest?How can it be?

Jia Wan didn't bother to talk about the truth anymore, even if he wanted to talk, he didn't need to tell people like Jia Zhen, he smiled, and pulled out a white silk handkerchief from his sleeve.

On the corner of the silk handkerchief, there are a few plain orchids embroidered, and there are blood-stained handwriting on the silk handkerchief.

When Jia Zhen saw it, her color changed. How could he not recognize that this is Qin Keqing's habit?Those orchid grasses were embroidered by Qin Keqing himself.

Then the writing on it...

Jia Wan threw Sipa on the case casually, and said: "Or, elder brother would rather see, Mr. Qin Zhong, take this thing and go to Shuntian Mansion to beat the drums and complain about grievances?"

Jia Zhen snatched the silk handkerchief, her hands were shaking, and the more she looked at her hands, the more she trembled: "This is... this is..."

As soon as he closed his hands, he wanted to tear it into pieces. He didn't want Jia Wan to reach out and pinch his wrist, so he involuntarily let go.

Jia Wan took the falling handkerchief and tucked it back into his sleeve without any haste.

Jia Zhen stretched out her hand to snatch it, but was pushed back on the chair by him. Jia Zhen pointed at him and said with a grim expression, "Why do you have such a thing? Give it to me!"

Jia Wan said: "How could I have this kind of thing? Maybe it was picked up on the road, maybe someone gave it to me, or maybe it was given to me by a ghost... who knows? Ah, maybe it's my father's apparition? Father doesn't like it very much, don't you throw things to play in the middle of the night?"

Thinking of that night of horror, what Jia Zhen didn't understand, and thinking of Qin Keqing's death, thinking of the fright of these days, broke his heart.

Pointing at him tremblingly: "So it's you! So you're the one playing tricks! I... I... killed you little bastard!"

He yelled at Jia Rong again: "Are you dead?"

Jia Rong just woke up like a dream, and was about to rush over to hug Jia Wan, when she heard a "click", and saw that the back of the sandalwood Taishi chair was easily broken off by Jia Wan. When I kneaded it with my hands, it was crushed into crumbs and fell off in strands... Suddenly I broke out in a cold sweat, how dare I move?

Jia Wan stretched his legs, stood up straight, and said in a calm tone: "Early in the morning, or eldest brother, you will write to the court, saying that you have seen through the world of mortals, and are determined to follow your father to become a monk, practice with all your heart, and don't care about world affairs. , leave it to me to inherit, or..."

He smiled and said: "Maybe little Qin Xianggong took this Qin family's dying blood letter and went to Shuntian Mansion to beat the drums and complain, and sue the current third-rank general Wei Lie. Die in the water!

"Here is the physical evidence. In my yard, there are two living witnesses. The evidence is as solid as a mountain...Whether you want to eat in prison or become a Taoist priest. Brother, you can make up your own mind. I will come to listen to the audio tomorrow morning."

After Jia Wan finished speaking, he turned around and left. After walking for two steps, he remembered something again, turned around and said, "Also, don't think about attacking Mr. Qin, I have already made arrangements over there, and I just wait for people to fall into the trap. Don't believe me, big brother." Just try it and see if it will make you feel worse."

"Beast! Beast!" Jia Zhen stumbled and yelled, pointing at his hands trembling like leaves in the wind: "I think I treat you kindly, you are here in Ningguo Mansion, food and clothing, what is missing from you Yes! You actually planned to harm me so deliberately!

"Silk silks and satin, jade grains and golden water shields, actually raised a white-eyed wolf! Let me tell you, don't think about it! Don't even think about it! Even if I die, I will never let the title of Ningguo Mansion fall into your hands!"

Jia Wan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "That's a good idea, it's even more refreshing than being a Taoist priest! Then, brother, go to hell!

"If you die early in the morning, I will burn this veil clean, and I will never touch the title, so Brother Rong can feel at ease as the Duke... What do you think?"

Jia Zhen was so angry that Yu Yu fainted: "You...you...you...you are ambitious, you will die!"

Jia Wan said indifferently: "Either die and let Brother Rong take the title, or become a Taoist priest, the third-rank general, I will do it, or go to court, you will be confiscated, and we will sell this Ningguo Mansion. Be a commoner with peace of mind... Brother, you only have one night, so choose carefully."

Jia Zhen scolded angrily: "Why? I'm dead, what good will it do you!"

Jia Wan said lightly: "I remember I told you that I disagree with my sister's marriage."

"You said that an older brother is like a father, and our marriage is not up to us to decide...I don't agree with this sentence.",,,,,
