[Comprehensive wear] You will get used to it

From that day on, Yang Yi lived in the Grand View Garden and lived a life of doing nothing. He didn't need to study or do homework, because the Jia family didn't like him, and he didn't even need to greet the elders every day. .Every day is fun except for playing, although Jia Baoyu is not very affectionate with him because of Lin Daiyu, but every time they get together to play, he will go to Yang Yi.

In the first few times, Yang Yi didn't bother to see those people who bored him, so he didn't go there. As a result, some words about his arrogance and arrogance were spread in Jia's mansion soon, causing him to be scolded by Lin Daiyu.So when Jia Baoyu went to look for him later, he went there, playing hide-and-seek in the yard with a group of teenage children, composing poems in the house, or making rouge and gouache, often so bored that he wanted to fall asleep.

This day they got together to play chess again, when they mentioned that it would be Xue Baochai's birthday in a few days, everyone began to actively plan how to celebrate Xue Baochai's birthday.

Jia Baoyu said: "In the past two years, because my elder sister visited relatives to build this garden, everyone lived very frugally, and none of them had a good birthday. This year can't be like this. We have to celebrate it."

"Brother Bao is not right. Even if everyone lives frugally, there is no shortage of allowances. Everyone didn't celebrate their birthday lively, just because the family is very busy, and we don't want to make trouble. But This year should really be a good one." Xue Baochai said as he put down a chess piece.

Jia Tanchun, who was sitting opposite Xue Baochai, quickly answered, "It should be like this. Let's get together and hold a lively birthday party for Sister Bao, invite a troupe, and have fun all day long. Alright. I'll give you a tael of silver first, how about you?"

"Then I'll pay two taels of silver." Jia Baoyu said hastily.

"I'll offer one or two too." Lin Daiyu continued.

Yingchun, Xichun, and Li Wan all said a tael, so Yang Yi had no choice but to follow suit and pay a tael of silver.Then came the maids, some paid half a tael, and some gave a few taels of money. They all added up to more than a dozen taels of silver, which was enough to buy several tables of good banquets.

"That's enough, I'll ask my grandmother to bring Sister Yun over, and we'll have a great time together." Jia Baoyu clapped his hands happily.

At this time, Baoyu's servant Mingyan suddenly ran over in a hurry, patted his chest and panted and said, "Second Master Bao, I have searched the whole yard, why are you here!"

"What are you doing in such a hurry, what's the matter with being so frizzy in such a hot day?" Xiren stood up and poured a cup of tea for Mingyan and said, "Take a breath and speak slowly. "

Mingyan took the teacup, and regardless of the hot water, took a long gulp and said, "Sister Xiren, this can't be delayed, can't be delayed. Just now I received an invitation post from Prince Zhongshun at the door, saying that Second Lord Bao would take it Take the brothers in the family to the noon banquet!"

"What, Prince Zhongshun?" Jia Baoyu called out in surprise.

"Yes, Second Master Bao, why do you think there is such a strange thing in this world? Second Master, you have never met Prince Zhongshun before, so why did you come here to ask Second Master to go to the banquet! And this post was delivered like this It's late, it's almost noon." Ming Yan said.

"Mingyan, slap your mouth! How can a young man like you figure out what the prince means?" Xue Baochai stood up abruptly, pointed at Mingyan and said sternly.

Mingyan was taken aback, and hurriedly slapped herself on the mouth twice, apologizing: "Young one has never studied and is ignorant, Miss Bao, don't blame the young one."

"Sister Bao, don't blame him, let Baoyu change clothes quickly." Jia Tanchun said.

Jia Baoyu was about to go to Yihong Courtyard in a hurry, but was stopped by the servant next to Jia Zheng: "Second Master, go slowly, Second Master, go slowly, Master has heard the letter and asked you to go to the study outside, saying yes You want to ask Second Master about Prince Zhongshun's invitation!"

"Ah!" Every time Jia Baoyu heard Jia Zheng calling him, no matter what it was, he would shrink back in fright like a mouse seeing a cat, and now he said with a bitter face: "What's the question?" Yes, I don't know myself!"

Seeing that Jia Baoyu didn't want to go there, Lin Daiyu persuaded: "Go quickly, the province's uncle will scold you again when he is in a hurry."

"Ah!" Jia Baoyu sighed heavily, and followed the boy helplessly.

Everyone started chatting and laughing again, but the topic changed from Xue Baochai's birthday banquet to Prince Zhongshun's invitation. Before they said a few words, the mandarin duck beside Jiamu ran over and said, "Have you seen Second Master Bao?" , the old lady heard that Prince Zhongshun wanted to invite Second Master Bao to a banquet, so she sent me to call Second Master Bao to come and talk!"

"You were called away by the master's servant just now, you just go to the study outside to look for it." Xiren said.

The mandarin ducks ran away in a hurry, and it was no fun for everyone to sit, so Jia Tanchun proposed to go to Jia Mu's house together, and wait for Jia Baoyu to come back from Jia Zheng's, and listen to what's going on together.

In this small group, Yang Yi has always maintained the principle of not being conspicuous in what other people do, and now everyone is going to Jia Mu, and he slowly follows behind.

Jia Tanchun was careful. Just now, when he heard Mingyan say that Prince Zhongshun asked Jia Baoyu to take his brother with him, he thought of Jia Huan. Last time she was scolded by Yang Yi because of Jia Huan's affairs, and she was always angry. Immediately, he wanted Jia Huan to take the opportunity to show his face.Thinking of this, she deliberately lagged behind everyone, and whispered to the servant girl: "Go quietly to the aunt's place, find Huan'er and ask him to change into decent clothes, and tell him to go to the old ancestor's place, just say to let him Please be safe, don't miss him when the time comes, Baoyu forgot to bring him."

When everyone arrived at Jiamu's place, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang and others had already sat down. They talked for a while, and Jia Baoyu came after not sitting for a long time. He greeted Jiamu and said, "Grandmother, father asked me Hurry up and change your clothes!"

"Baoyu, grandma told you that when you are at Prince Zhongshun's house, you are not allowed to behave like you are at home. You have to be careful in your words and deeds, and don't make mistakes that make Prince Zhongshun unhappy and your eldest sister." Jiamu said.

"Grandmother, don't worry, grandson is not the first to go out to socialize and have dinner, he still knows what he should know." Jia Baoyu said.

Then Mrs. Wang also gave some instructions, and then sent Jia Baoyu to let him go.Jia Baoyu ran out with a smile, and when he reached the door, he slapped his forehead and ran back, saying, "Grandmother, I forgot to ask father which brothers he took with him."

"Your older brothers are already in official positions. If Prince Zhongshun wants to invite them to go, he must post a post. You can take your younger brother." Jia Mu thought for a while and said to Yuanyang: "Go over there. The mansion called Brother Qiang to get ready and go with Baoyu later."

Jia Huan was naturally included among Jia Baoyu's younger brothers, but Jia's mother didn't mention a word, apparently because she didn't want Jia Baoyu to show her face with Jia Huan.

Jia Tanchun sat there anxiously twisting the handkerchief, looking at the door involuntarily, but soon there was a girl's announcement from outside, saying that Jia Huan had come.But what displeased Jia Tanchun was that Aunt Zhao also came.

Aunt Zhao walked over with Jia Huan, who was well dressed, bowed to Mother Jia and others, and said, "Old lady, I heard from the girls that Prince Zhongshun sent a post to Baoyu and asked Baoyu to take his brothers Let's go to the banquet together, I will bring Huan'er over here and wait to go with his brother."

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang didn't want Jia Huan to go with her. Aunt Zhao's coming here obviously made them unhappy, so her face immediately turned down. Jia Mu snorted and said, "Where do you think you are going, let him dress like this." clothes?"

Aunt Zhao was also afraid that Jia Huan would come alone and pretend that Jia Mu didn't see her, so she pulled Jia Huan to come with her cheeky. Said: "Our quota is so small, we can't make many good clothes, this one is already the best, although it is not as good as Baoyu, it will not be ashamed to go out."

"Do you mean that I withheld your share?" Mrs. Wang said immediately.

Everyone stopped talking at the moment, Xue Baochai immediately stood up and said, "Auntie, I don't think Aunt Zhao meant that. My brother is going outside in two months, and I happened to pass by my uncle's house. I prepared a few sets of clothes there for For my cousin, although he is a bit older than Brother Huan, Brother Huan is taller, so it’s okay to wear his clothes, so just get a new one from me and wear it.”

After listening to her gratitude, Aunt Zhao took Jia Huan to follow Yinger and left in a hurry.

Mrs. Xing usually likes to see Mrs. Wang deflated, and now she sees Mrs. Wang's displeasure, but Jia Huan can't stop her from going. She is very happy, and her eyes just see Yang Yi who is hiding behind Lin Daiyu and sitting next to the corner. Furious, Mrs. Wang smiled and said to Mother Jia: "Old lady, there is someone here we must not forget." She waved to Yang Yi and said, "Qiuyu, good boy, come here. Since you came we I haven't gone out here to play once, this time I will let your second brother Bao take you to have a look."

Mrs. Wang always thought that Lin Daiyu and Yang Yi were not pleasing to her eyes, so she usually secretly suppressed Lin Daiyu and Yang Yi.She didn't stop Jia Huan just now, and she couldn't let Yang Yi go now, she quickly said: "His family is a child, and he hasn't seen any big battles before, I'm afraid it's not good."

Jia's mother also wanted to suppress Yang Yi, so she said along the way: "That's the reason. After all, Huan'er has gone through the visit of the concubine and empress, so she has seen the big world. Qiuyu is young and has never seen a big scene. , Prince Zhongshun’s mansion is a very strict place, don’t be scared by going there, it’s not good. If you want to go out to play, let Baoyu take you to the street next time, this time at home first , Come back and let your second brother Bao tell you."

Yang Yi didn't want to go, but on the way here, he occasionally talked with Shui Chen and Yao Qinglan about the flood in the south last year. It is said that it was handled for Prince Zhongshun. initiative.He had made good friends with the two before, but if he went this time, it would inevitably make people feel bad, so he obediently expressed that he was timid and did not dare to meet the prince.

So Jia Baoyu took Jia Huan and Jia Qiang to Prince Zhongshun's residence, while Yang Yi stayed in Jia's residence.It wasn't a big deal at all, but the next day it was reported in Jia's mansion that Yang Yi was not allowed to go with Jia Baoyu because of his bad character.It's just that Jia Huan, who has always been the representative of the Jia family's bad conduct, went, but Yang Yi didn't. It can be seen that he is worse than Jia Huan.As a result, many people had a lot of guesses, and in the evening, the rumors would be even more difficult to hear.Lin Daiyu heard it, and fainted from deep anger.
