Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat

Jia She turned around, waved the folding fan in his hand, and smiled, "Yo, second child! Why, are you interested in coming here for a drink today?"

Jia Zheng got off the carriage, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

"Brother, little brother has something to discuss with you, I don't know brother..."

Before he finished speaking, Jia She waved his hand and said carelessly: "I have an appointment for a drink, second child, since you are here, let's go in and have a few drinks together." Xiao Lang, seven or eight years old, has a face like powder, red lips and white teeth, and is very handsome.The young man ran all the way to Jia She, and gave a bow, "Master Jia, I've been looking forward to your coming. Our master has been waiting for a long time, and it's already hopeless. No, seeing you coming, Baba sent a servant to invite you." !"

Jia Amnesty glanced at the boy, "You're still so glib!" The boy came up to him with a smile, and made many jokes.Jia Amnesty was also full of smiles, took out a purse to put on him, and asked: "Are all the other masters here?"

The boy took it with a smile, thanked him for the reward, and said, "It's all here, I'm just waiting for you, Mr. Jia."

Jia Amnesty looked back at Jia Zheng, "Second brother, let's have a drink together."

The young man had already seen a gentleman standing beside Jia She, but because he had never seen him before, he didn't know his identity, so he didn't dare to greet him rashly.At this moment, Jia She called his second younger brother, the master of his family had frequent contacts with Jia She, and knew that Jia She had another brother, Jia Zheng.Now that Jia Amnesty addressed his second younger brother, he knew it was undoubtedly Jia Zheng, and immediately went up to salute him with a smile, and said with a smile: "I don't know it's Master Jia's visit. I'm so rude, please forgive me."

As he spoke, he kept moving Jia Zheng in.

The servants around Jia Zheng were all steady and dull, never had I seen such a slick, smiling and glib boy.I was so uncomfortable that I almost didn't know how to let go of my hands and feet.Although he knew that he was not with them, seeing Jia Amnesty going upstairs leisurely with his hands behind his back and the two servants, he remembered what Chief Cao had told him.Although Jia Zheng was very unhappy in his heart, he had no choice but to resist the urge to leave in a huff, and follow up patiently.

Sitting in the private room were four or five officials and lords in brocade clothes and robes with beautiful beards. Jia Zheng knew some of them, and some of them didn't.A few people chatted, laughed and chatted about which family's young servants were handsome and which mansion's maids were beautiful, which opera troupe sang well, who and so and so had acquired a few new antiques, which mansion had what news happened, and so on.

Jia Zheng just listened, and couldn't get in a word, but Jia Amnesty was able to handle both sides, like a fish in water.

Jia Zheng felt uncomfortable with tens of millions of ants crawling on his body.It seemed that the feeling of being a joke of others in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry was always with him, and he couldn't sit still for a moment.I don't know how long it took before Jia She came out to change clothes. Seeing the opportunity, Jia Zheng slipped out without anyone noticing, pulled Jia She to a secluded place, and said, "Brother, why do you come and go with such scumbags? , It's better to stop it early, lest the old lady know and get angry again!

When Jia Amnesty heard this, he was very unhappy, raised his eyebrows and replied, "Of course I can't compare to you, the treasure of the old lady, the pillar of the court, and when I am free, I just drink tea, read, play chess and play chess with the gentlemen of the Qing Dynasty. Article. I am a layman, I only know how to drink and have fun, but I am not guilty, not like some people who say so high-soundingly, as if he is the only one in the whole world. of."

"Brother, what do you mean?" Jia Zheng asked with a dark face.

Jia She said: "I just said that there is such a kind of person in the world, who is the most despicable. I don't mean anything, and I didn't say you, second brother. Don't force yourself to put the pot of shit on your head."

It's a bit indecent to say this.

Just listening to it, Jia Zheng felt that his ears were polluted, and he even disliked Jia Amnesty. If he hadn't asked someone for something today, he would have walked away at this moment.

Jia Zheng endured and endured, his face turned red and then pale, and then he turned red again, thinking that today he was looking for Jia She to discuss how to solve the impeachment of Yu Shi, and it would not be good for him to provoke Jia She, no matter how difficult it is, it is necessary Swallow this fuss.

After all this, Jia Zheng didn't turn his face, Jia Amnesty was very surprised.After thinking about it, he understood that his second younger brother probably wanted something from him today.This is really the sun coming out from the west, isn't this guy always relying on the love of the old lady, and doesn't take him seriously as a big brother?

"Second brother, are you looking for something for elder brother?" Thinking about it, Jia Amnesty couldn't help softening his attitude, and wanted to see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Seeing that Jia She's voice softened, Jia Zheng finally forced a smile on his face. He hesitated to speak several times. After deliberating for a long time, he called out "Big Brother", frowned and thought for a while and said: "Life is alive, but it is only a short period of time. Ten years, but they suffered from birth, old age, sickness and death..."

Hearing such an opening, Jia She almost burst out laughing.

He has brewed the relationship for so long, just to leave him with the truth of life?

Obviously, Jia Zheng did not mean to talk about the philosophy of life.Jia Amnesty also knew this very well, so he was not in a hurry, and waited for his next words with raised eyebrows.But he didn't expect the next words to give him even more headaches. No wonder it is said that literati drop their book bags. There can only be one word to describe it, sour!

Jia Zheng first quoted scriptures and recited many poems that praised the love of parents for their children and the difficulty of being a parent.Then he said that although he was half a hundred years old, he still had to worry about the children in his family.Like Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan, Yuanchun, Tanchun and others, although he can't be with them all the time, he always pays attention to them. He can't eat or sleep when the children have something bad, and he can't sleep when the children are sick. A few white hairs.

In short, it is to say that all parents in the world have worked hard, and all of them wish to die for their children.

There are many such parents, Jia She admits this.But there are exceptions. There are parents who love their sons and daughters as much as they want, and there are parents who sell their sons and daughters for food and clothing, and there are also selfish parents, greedy parents, and eccentric parents.

Jia Zheng said so much in order to draw out how difficult it is for Jia's mother to raise their brothers.It's so easy to raise a son and have a grandson, so why not live a happy life?Brother, as the eldest son, you have the nerve to drive the old lady out of Rong Mansion to live in the cramped old garden?

Jia Amnesty really opened his eyes, it was the first time he saw someone going around such a big circle in order to say something.

Jia She coughed lightly: "Second brother, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. When did I say that I would drive mother out?"

"Could it be that you asked Zhou Yushi to impeach me for disregarding etiquette and occupying Rongfu?"

"Oh... so it's this matter..." Jia She sighed.

"You really did it?!" Jia Zheng's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Jia Amnesty stared at Jia Zheng carefully and saw that Jia Zheng's eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets. Fang chuckled and said, "I didn't do it, and I don't know who did it. Why, Zhou Yushi really Want to impeach you? Who did you listen to?" Jia She also wanted to say that you also know that the old garden is cramped, why don't you live in it by yourself?I want to drive you away, not the old lady.

Before he could say anything, he saw Jia Zheng with red eyes, snorted coldly, and walked away.

He walked out of the restaurant ferociously all the way, stumbled on the threshold, almost fell, couldn't help spitting regardless of his image.When did Jia Zheng's servants see him lose his composure like this, he couldn't help laughing, but he didn't dare to laugh, all of them pursed their lips tightly and their faces twisted.When Jia Zheng saw this, he couldn't help being even more angry from his heart. He kicked a boy next to him on the heart, and cursed: "You son of a bitch, you dare to read the master's jokes, you are shameless!"

This kick was so hard that the boy vomited blood on the spot, clutching his chest and rolling all over the floor in pain, crying out in pain.

Jia Zhengming said: "You dog slaves, don't shut up and drag them away, let him howl!"

The rest of the servants turned pale with fright. Hearing this, they hurriedly pulled the servant up, supported them, gagged them, and dragged them away.

A man with a gray beard upstairs shook his head and said, "Brother Enhou, your brother has quite a temper!"

Another person said: "Brother Enhou, you are good-natured, otherwise I would have kicked out this unfilial bastard, and let him occupy the Rongguo Mansion for many years. Don't forget, you are the eldest son of Xijue, Now he lives in what he called a cramped old courtyard."

The rest of the people were also filled with righteous indignation and expressed their grievances for Jia Amnesty.

Let's say that when Jia Zheng returned to Rongfu, he went to Wang's courtyard full of anger, and he was about to explode and express his grievances!If it wasn't for this ignorant and stupid woman who was idle and provoking trouble every day, why did Erfang end up in such a situation?

Jia Zheng walked swiftly all the way, strictly forbidding anyone to report, and the servant girls naturally dared not refuse to listen.Walking all the way to Wang's room, Wang was reclining on the kang with his eyes closed, and Jia Baoyu was there, making rouge paste with two little girls around the smoked cage.

When Jia Zheng saw it, he became even more furious. He rushed forward, dodged the rouge box in Jia Baoyu's hand, and slammed it on his face.

Jia Baoyu let out an "ouch" and covered his scarlet face, not daring to say anything.Wang hurriedly stood up and persuaded: "Master, don't be angry, Baoyu is still young, just mischievous, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, please don't beat him again, let the old lady know, wouldn't it be distressing?"

Jia Zheng kicked the Wang family over with one kick: "You are the ones who indulged him! Look at what he has become now, do you have to indulge him to bully the king and kill his father!" Take the rope quickly, tie up Baoyu and beat him hard until he knows his mistake and admits it.

Wang's viscera were in pain after being kicked. Seeing that Jia Zheng wanted to beat Baoyu fiercely, he had to kneel down to persuade him.

Jia Zheng said angrily, "You don't have to persuade me. After beating Baoyu, I'm going to beat you again!"

Wang saw that Jia Zheng's anger was different now, she had been married to Jia Zheng for decades, and she had never seen him get so angry, let alone say that she wanted to beat her.Judging by Jia Zheng's expression, these words do not seem to be false.At this moment, when someone was going to move the old lady for emergency, Jia Zheng had already ordered someone to seal the gate of the courtyard, so he couldn't get out even if he went out.

Just then, Jia Zheng said, "Drag these two maids down, beat each of them with forty slaps and drive them out." He was referring to the two maids who had just made rouge paste with Jia Baoyu.

As soon as the words were finished, two women had already dragged the two maids out.

The two girls were crying like tears, and they were so sad that they only begged the master to forgive this time and never dare to do it again.Jia Zheng didn't even frown, but ordered to pull it down quickly, and at the same time called his servant, "Bring me my riding whip!"

For a while, the boy brought the whip, Jia Zheng took it, and ordered everyone to wait in the yard.After everyone retreated, he grabbed Mrs. Wang's hair and dragged her into the inner room. Regardless of Mrs. Wang's struggle, he stripped off her outer thick clothes, leaving only the close-fitting single clothes, and whipped her a few times.Wang's body was in pain, and she felt even more aggrieved. She cried and said, "I married into your family when I was 15 years old. I served my parents-in-law, took care of my sister-in-law, and raised my children. I raised three children for you. Hard work, I never thought you would treat me like this at this age. It doesn’t matter if you beat me with the whip, what kind of person will I be in the future, I can’t live anymore, I can’t live anymore!”

After saying that, he stood up and slammed into the wall, shouting: "Brother, you must seek justice for your poor girl!"

Hearing her mention of Wang Ziteng, Jia Zheng was taken aback, regretting that he had been reckless, and in a hurry forgot that the Wang family and Wang Ziteng were his big backers.Wang Ziteng is currently the inspector of the capital of nine provinces, with a high position and authority. It is thanks to this person that Jia's mansion can maintain its current dignity.Too late to regret it, he threw down the whip and hugged Wang Shi with both hands, and said in a soft tone: "Madam calm down, it's because my husband made a mistake, because my husband shouldn't have been instigated by outsiders to look for you."

Wang's face was full of creases, and at this moment, tears were streaming down his face. With a bitter face, he opened his mouth and said, "Who was instigated by the master?"

Jia Zheng sighed, "Aren't you the eldest brother?"

Wang's face became ferocious, with a murderous look in his eyes, and he snorted coldly: "It really is him!"

Jia Zheng saw that the matter had a chance to slow down, so he hurriedly made up a lot of stories about Jia Amnesty seriously injuring Wang, and made a lot of compensations, so Wang calmed down.At this moment, Jia Baoyu had been beaten so loudly, Wang hurriedly pushed Jia Zheng out, told them not to beat him, and came in with Jia Baoyu to seek medical treatment.

A farce has since ended.

Not long after, Jia's mother heard the movement and sent a little girl to inquire about it. She also knew about it, so she inevitably reprimanded Jia Zheng again.Jia Zheng took advantage of the opportunity to report Zhou Yushi's intention to impeach him, and Jia's mother said, "A little Yushi scares you like this? Hmph, I'm still alive, the boss can't get past you! I'm the first Mrs. Duke, whom the emperor personally sealed, you can live in Rongguo Mansion with peace of mind if I am with you for a day."

Even though Jia's mother said so, Jia Zheng was worried after all, and discussed with Wang at night.

The Wang family still hated Jia Zheng for beating her, and at this moment, she decided to use some means to settle the matter, so that Jia Zheng would know that the power of the Wang family was far from comparable to that of the Jia family.If the Jia family can't solve it, let her Wang family take care of it.Since then, Jia Zheng will be more afraid of the power of the Wang family, and will treat her politely.

Isn't he just a little censor, if he dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head, let him know how powerful he is!

-

Lin Daiyu felt that Lin Ruhai was a little strange recently, um, she was too concerned about her.

Not to mention staring at her for food and medicine every day, she often stares at her with guilt-ridden eyes, which makes her feel uncomfortable.

Just like now, Lin Ruhai neglected her official duties and came home early from get off work just to give her a basket of fresh fruits.This has never been seen before.

Lin Ruhai stared at Daiyu for a long time, then heaved a heavy sigh.

"Daughter, I killed you for my father..."

It's because your father is confused, your husband shouldn't send you to Jia's mansion, let you be murdered and poisoned by an adulterer.Alas, it's all my father's fault. No matter what, my father would never have imagined that the people from the Jia family would be so shameless that they would even harm a weak woman like you.If I had known this before, I would not be an official as my father, and I would take you to resign early and go back to seclusion. With the huge wealth of our Lin family, I can protect you without worrying about food and clothing.

Again!

Lin Daiyu weakly put down a purse she was embroidering and was about to finish, and said: "Daddy is very good to my daughter. There is no such good father as Daddy in the world. Daddy will not say these things in the future."

"No, you don't know..." Lin Ruhai looked sad, "I don't deserve to be a father at all."

"Daddy!" Lin Daiyu frowned, "Don't let Daddy say that about me!"

Looking at Lin Daiyu, Lin Ruhai felt that every moment was a comfort.

It has been three days since the miracle doctor's diagnosis. Lin Ruhai took the medicine, and she didn't cough and runny nose very much, but her body was still a little weak and tired easily.The officialdom is treacherous, and there are only three or two years left to live. He intends to resign and take his daughter away from the wrong place, and live a peaceful life in two years.But when he thinks of taking advantage of the person who murdered him, he becomes very annoyed.Therefore, the official cannot resign for the time being, because once the official is resigned and the power is lost, it will not be so convenient to find out who is so vicious and poisoned others, let alone revenge!

His revenge may not be avenged, but his daughter's revenge must be avenged!

The poison on Daiyu's body was taken within a year, that is when she was in Jia's residence.Although Lin Ruhai didn't know who did the poisoning, it was always someone from the Jia family.In Lin Ruhai's lifetime, even if he risked his life, he wanted to find out who killed his Daiyu, and revenge was impossible.

Lin Daiyu knew from Zhou Hang that it was Mrs. Wang who poisoned her, but when she arrived in Yangzhou, Lin Ruhai fell ill, and she was afraid that Lin Ruhai's anger and worry would affect her condition, so she couldn't tell him.Later, although Lin Ruhai got better, and it was just in time for the New Year's Eve, he was too busy to talk about it.

After the New Year's Eve, Lin Ruhai had a cold again, and he went to see a doctor every day for medicine, and even forgot about it.

This procrastination has dragged on until now, Lin Ruhai didn't know that Daiyu already knew that she was poisoned, so it was not easy to ask her.As for Lin Daiyu, she didn't know that Lin Ruhai already knew about her poisoning, so she didn't dare to say it for a while.

Therefore, in this matter, the father and daughter had some misunderstandings.

In the past few days, Lin Ruhai mainly did two things.One is to convert all the gifts received during the New Year's Day into bank notes, and order people to send them to the capital together with an invitation booklet.The second is to order people to thoroughly investigate the mansion, and to make a secret investigation in Yangzhou City to find out who drugged him.

Two years have passed since the incident, and most of the people who participated in the incident were either silenced or went away. It is not so easy to find out.Lin Ruhai checked for a few days, but with little success.On the contrary, Zhou Hang found out some clues through the cat army, and was secretly planning to use some means to reveal it to Lin Ruhai without anyone noticing.

It was night, Daiyu was sitting under the window, lighting a few candles to embroider purses, while Zhou Hang was lying on her lap, playing with his tail in his arms.

"Pangpang, do you think foster father will like this purse?" Daiyu asked suddenly.

The purse is embroidered with a picture of Aoxue Chunmei, which is extremely delicate and small, every petal and every cluster of stamens are clearly visible, Zhou Hang likes it when he looks at it.

"Sister Lin, don't worry, your adoptive father will definitely like it!"

"Pangpang, you are naughty!" Lin Daiyu put down her purse and grabbed the tip of the kitten's ear when she heard that, "I told you not to call me sister, but to call me sister!"

Zhou Hang rolled on Lin Daiyu shamelessly, but refused to call her sister.One person and one cat quarreled for a while, Daiyu straightened her clothes and said, "Stop playing, the candle is half burned, if you don't hurry up, you won't be able to embroider today."

"If you can't embroider well, you can embroider it tomorrow." Zhou Hang raised his head and rubbed against the back of Daiyu's hand.

"No! My adoptive father will leave Yangzhou tomorrow, so I must embroider it today."

Speaking of picking up the needle and thread, she had just embroidered a few stitches, so it might as well be indifferent for a while, the embroidery needle stuck in her hand, Daiyu said "ah", and frowned like a hook.Startled, Zhou Hang quickly jumped up to check. The piece of sapphire around his neck swayed a few times with his movements, and happened to touch Daiyu's injured finger.

A white light flashed, and one person and one cat fainted at the same time.

Waking up again, Zhou Hang was shocked.

The view is the endless withered yellow grass, which makes people feel empty.

Wear it again? ? ?This was Zhou Hang's first thought.

Um?I have recovered my human body, really, it's so cool!

So, what about sister Lin?

Looking left and right, there is a girl in light pink clothes lying not far away, isn't it Daiyu but who?

After enjoying himself, Zhou Hang felt like crying.He has no clothes, and the consequence of becoming a human is——

TMD he is light, light, light! ! ! !

God play with me!

The author has something to say:

Zhou Hang: God of time travel, come out and I promise not to kill you.You told Lao Tzu that Lao Tzu became a cat in clothes, TMD became a naked man when he became a naked man, naked man naked man naked man, ah ah ... TMD small DD was exposed!

Sister Lin (covering her face): Shame, shame~
