[Red House] The First Imperial Merchant

Chapter 49 Brother Huan Threatens Erye Bao

The singing on the stage is babbling, and I am afraid that no one on the stage is concentrating on watching the play.

Xue Baochai turned her head and saw Daiyu's expression was depressed, so she couldn't help whispering: "Sister, don't hold back what you have to say or think, that place---" His eyes looked like Mrs. Yuan's, "She said hers, this cousin's matter is still It's up to the aunt and the old lady to decide, and the old lady's heart is for you." Her words were ambiguous, but Lin Daiyu understood that she was referring to Baoyu's marriage.

Today's invitation to watch a play, where is it a play?Glancing at the people at the table under the stage, which one doesn't have a young girl who is waiting to be married?Xue Baochai looked down on Jia Baoyu, but she knew that Lin Daiyu was putting her whole heart on it, and they were in love with each other. Besides, although Jia Baoyu said she was not motivated, she was good to sister Lin and their temperaments were compatible. If the two got married However, Xue Baochai was also happy for Sister Lin, but her aunt was not easy to get along with, and Sister Lin was such a noble person in her bones, so she might not be able to deal with the messy affairs of the back house.

When Lin Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help looking at Jia Mu expectantly.Then I heard Jia's mother laughing and said: "The girls raised by the Yuan family for generations are probably one in ten thousand girls."

In ancient times, the eldest brother was like a father. Yuan Xiujin’s parents died young, and his grandmother was old and sick. Now Mrs. Yuan takes care of the Yuan Mansion. My sister-in-law is only thirteen years old and obedient and well-behaved. Mrs. Yuan also came out from everyone. Yes, if sister-in-law finds a good marriage, it will also be helpful to their Yuan family.Jia Baoyu, the second wife of the Jia family, said that his father was only a fifth-rank official, but his son was favored by Jia's mother, and there was a concubine in the palace who was pregnant with a dragon seed.

Mrs. Yuan has a good plan, she is not a mean person, and she is naturally picky about her appearance and temperament when facing her sister-in-law.When we were in the mansion, it was convenient for my husband to discuss, but my husband only said to take a look at Jia Baoyu's character and keep it as a slow observation.Naturally, she is not in a hurry, the husband only has one direct sister, raising them in the mansion is just a matter of having more chopsticks, so naturally she should plan carefully.However, when I saw Jia Baoyu's handsome appearance today, I secretly remembered it in my heart, and I just went back to inspect his character.

"I'm not boasting. My girl is quiet and well-behaved, and she looks like a fairy, but she is young. My husband and I want to stay for two more years, so we can choose carefully while we are here." Mrs. Yuan said here, coincidentally He smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I have heard that there are four sisters in the mansion, and there is no choice between their appearance and personality. I am afraid that in two years, the old lady will be dazzled and reluctant!"

"The three of you who welcome the spring, explore the spring and cherish the spring are still young, and I can't think about those now. The remaining one is my granddaughter named Daiyu." Jia Mu waved at Lin Daiyu, and said with a smile: "Yu'er, come to grandma, you and Baoyu is sitting beside grandmother."

Lin Daiyu got up and went to Jia Mu, first invited Ann to salute, Jia Baoyu sat on the table and winked at Lin Daiyu, Lin Daiyu pretended not to see Jia Mu sitting in another place.

"What a romantic and chic girl." Mrs. Yuan praised: "It seems that Miss Lin is worthy of the title of a fairy. Ouch, the mansion really supports people. Every girl is so beautiful, and she is also an old lady. Can tune 1 to teach people. How old are you?"

Lin Daiyu said softly: "Twelve."

"It's still young, but it's not too young after two years of planning, but at my place----" Mrs. Yuan was about to talk about her cousin when Jia Baoyu interrupted: "Sister Lin, don't marry after two years! I want to marry--"

"Baoyu!" Mrs. Wang shouted.

As soon as Jia Baoyu said this, all the female guests at the banquet were shocked, and they fell silent after talking and laughing just now.

The children of the aristocratic families are always concealed when they get married. For example, today is for Baoyu, but it is under the guise of watching a drama, and it is impossible to make a decision at once. Temperament and so on, if you don't see eye to eye, it will not be embarrassing, and the two families will not damage their relationship with each other, so that they look good, especially the woman's reputation will not be damaged.

Now that Jia Baoyu said this in public, everyone present is a genius, who doesn't know what Jia Baoyu said behind it? !Mrs. Wang cut off the conversation again, the scene was awkward for a while, Jiamu pulled her face down and remained silent, Lin Daiyu who was beside her was hurt all over by the eyes of the female relatives at the banquet, but Jia Baoyu who was sitting next to her had pure and innocent eyes, as if she didn't know herself It's the same as saying something wrong, and she stood in front of Jiamu with her hands tied.

The smile in Madam Yuan's eyes became cold, with a faint smile on her face, she said: "This opera is well sung, did you invite the opera troupe from Beijing, or did you teach it yourself?"

"I love to listen to operas. Lian'er bought it from Yangzhou and invited a master to teach. If Mrs. Yuan likes to change it, I will send you to sing a few times in your house." Jiamu laughed.

Mrs. Wang knew that she had been reckless just now, so she interrupted with a smile to cater to her, but Mother Jia didn't buy it, she was indifferent to Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xue Wang couldn't stand watching, and said with a smile: "The play is good. It has been several years. I haven't heard such a good show."

"Watching a play, watching a play." Jia Mu said happily, and after the whole play, she did not glance at Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu.

Lin Daiyu sat beside Jia Mu with her eyes lowered and holding back her tears. Xue Baochai saw her and said with a smile, "Mom, I'm so overwhelmed that I want to go out for a walk." "Can my sister come with me?"

Lin Daiyu nodded with tears in her eyes, Xue Baochai blocked half of Lin Daiyu's figure when she saw this, and they left the theater together.

Before leaving that day, Lin Daiyu held Xue Baochai's hand reluctantly, and her eyes were swollen like walnuts. After hearing Jia Baoyu's words during the theater today, Lin Daiyu preached to Lin Daiyu, and she said every sentence in place, and the words were not serious. Lin Daiyu was also concerned about her reputation. Lin Daiyu knew it herself. On the one hand, she complained about Jia Baoyu's reckless words, and on the other hand, she hated herself for not being up to date. She knew Baoyu's temper, but she just couldn't bear Jia Baoyu.

Seeing this, Wang Xue said: "If you want to stay here for two days, you can do it. Don't make trouble for me. It's not like Jia's mansion can make you reckless and have no rules."

"Mom!" Xue Baochai said coquettishly, "Where did you say I was reckless and unruly!"

"My sister seems to be talking about me." Xue Baoqin said with a coquettish smile: "Don't worry, Auntie, who can only suffer from my sister's loss?!" Then she winked at Baochai and said, "I will pick you up in two days. elder sister."

Xue Wang said with a smile: "You have the same mouth as your sister. Let's go back! Your elder brother has been waiting outside for a long time."

After lunch the next day, Jia Huan left the hospital in a good mood and went straight to Rongxi Hall.It is well known in Jia's mansion that Jia's mother doesn't want to see Jia Huan, and even the girl who guards the gate is indifferent to Jia Huan.

Although the girl looked down on Jia Huan, but because of Jia's mother's order, all members of the Jia family avoided Jia Huan.For this reason, the maids saluted politely, and said indifferently: "The old matriarch just took a rest after lunch, Brother Huan, please come back in the afternoon."

"I'm looking for my second brother." Jia Huan said.Walking straight in, the girls curled their lips behind their backs but didn't dare to stop them, they just cursed in their hearts: Why didn't this short-lived species die clean back then!Naturally, Jia Huan didn't know about the girl's curse, if he knew, there would be a lot of turmoil.

The bisha cabinet is behind the main hall of Rongxi Hall, and you can walk straight through the corridor.Now only Jia Baoyu lives in the bisha cupboard. Lin Daiyu used to live in the inner courtyard, but now it is also empty.At the gate of the courtyard, Xiren was sitting on the corridor embroidering. Seeing Jia Huan put down his work, he asked, "Why is Brother Huan here?"

Jia Huan kept silent and didn't answer, just stared at Xiren and looked at him again and again. Baoyu's servant girl just smiled and nodded when she saw him, she didn't mean to salute him at all.Xiren was horrified by Jia Huan's eyes and felt very uncomfortable, so he stood up and said, "Are you looking for Baoyu?"

The maids in Jia's mansion called Jia Baoyu's name was ordered by Jia's mother. Jia Baoyu's life was expensive, so he asked his servants to call him by his name because he was afraid that he would not grow up well.But Jia Huan is the complete opposite, because of his humble background, even the maids look down on him, so it may be difficult to call him Third Master Huan on weekdays, so he deserves to be called by his first name.

Jia Huan didn't pay any attention to Xiren, who in the whole house who forced Mrs. Wang away back then scolded herself as unlucky star? !Avoiding everywhere, he is happy and at ease, now he wants to take Joe in front of him, and it depends on whether he agrees or not.As if he didn't see the attacker, Jia Huan went straight to the main room, lifted the curtain and walked in.There was a hint of anger in Xiren's eyes, and the voice behind him was also unhappy, "Baoyu is taking a nap, and her spirits have not been good for the past few days. The old lady said that she would--"

"Second brother! Second brother!" Jia Huan shouted loudly, "Father asked me to ask you to go to Xue's residence."

Xiren behind her stopped talking when she heard Jia Huan mention Jia Zheng's name. She thought it was to scare Jia Huan by mentioning Jia's mother's name, but she didn't expect that he didn't care at all, and her voice sounded like someone walking around the street. Looks like a salesman.

Jia Baoyu, who had just eaten and fell asleep, heard the word "Father" in a trance, and was bald with fright. He sat up quickly, opened his eyes and looked around, just in time to bump into Jia Huan who pushed the door and entered, and looked behind Jia Huan Seeing that Xiren was the only one, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said, "Brother Huan, why are you here? I heard father in my dream---"

"Didn't the second brother forget what he promised his father yesterday?" Jia Huan smiled, but the smile was not friendly at all.

Jia Baoyu just fell asleep and was woken up by Jia Huan, his mind was not working. When he heard that he had promised Jia Zheng yesterday, he racked his brains to think about it. Jia Huan sat aside and did not urge him.Xiren saw it, and hurried to the bedside and whispered softly: "Look at the sweat on the head, what's the big deal to yell like this, but you still need to sleep for a while?"

The words were for Jia Huan. Jia Baoyu was thinking about something and didn't have the time to think about Xiren's crooked intestines. He waved his hands casually, and then he understood, showing a depressed look, and said: "Go to this place." morning?"

"It's getting late." Jia Huan smiled, obviously in a good mood, and beat the time with one hand and hummed: "Master is very serious about learning. If you want to learn from a teacher when you first come, you have to work hard. Master doesn't know your background. If you are not satisfied with the homework assigned, you will have to hit the board. My second brother, my palms were swollen before I became a teacher. I was impressed by the master after hard work. You go early and I will persuade you Well, I guess it won't be too harsh."

If Xue Pan heard this, he would scold Jia Huan for farting!

But Jia Baoyu didn't know, he was so frightened by Jia Huan's words that he became displeased and disgusted before class, and only thought about how to deal with his father's business, or kneel down and beg Jia's mother for help... .
