[Red Mansions] Male wife

Chapter 31 Beginning to Yangzhou

Baoyu stared at Daiyu in Jiamu's arms in a daze, hesitating to speak.He sat down annoyed, bowed his head and said nothing.

Jia's mother and others are all concerned about Daiyu and Jia Xiuyun's going to Yangzhou, but few people pay attention to Baoyu.The maid, Sheyue, noticed that Second Master Bao was in a bad mood, and advised him to go back to rest earlier.Baoyu nodded sullenly, went back to Jiamu, Mrs. Wang, etc., and went back to the room gloomy.Baoyu ignored the maids who made jokes with her, and fell headlong on the bed, turned over, and wiped tears on the bed.

Xiren saw that something was wrong, so La Sheyue asked why.After knowing what happened, Xiren guessed that Baoyu must be sad because of Miss Lin's return to Yangzhou.Xiren has served Baoyu for so many years, how could she not understand his thoughts.Baoyu is a man of temperament. He grew up with Miss Lin, and his relationship is naturally deep.

"Speaking of when Miss Lin decided to go back to Yangzhou, why didn't she hear the news earlier? The second master Bao definitely didn't know, but when he heard that she was leaving suddenly, he was caught off guard and couldn't help being sad." Xi Ren sighed After a few words, he ordered Qingwen and other girls to go out to play, so that Second Master Bao could have a quiet time.

After the other maids had left, Xiren closed the door, and then sat down beside the bed and persuaded Baoyu.Baoyu just kept crying, no matter what the attacker said.After persuading and persuading Xiren, his patience was exhausted, and he was a little angry. He turned away from looking at Baoyu, and complained: "He is even less sensible than him, and he is two or three years younger than you."

Hearing this, Baoyu sat up angrily, pulled the attacker and asked, "Who are you talking about, comparing me to that mud monkey!"

"Mud monkey? What's the matter with you? A few days ago, you praised your third brother for being clever and smart in front of us. Why are you scolding him today?" Xiren didn't mean to speak for Third Master Huan, she I explain it this way to clear myself up.If she had known that Second Master Bao looked down on him, she wouldn't have talked about him just now.

"It's not him, Sister Lin can't go back!" Baoyu frowned, staring at people sadly, and two lines of tears rushed down. "I don't want my sister to go back. Who can guarantee what will happen to Uncle Lin when he sees his daughter? He is Sister Lin's biological father. If he keeps her, no one can make an argument. If Sister Lin stays in Yangzhou, what should I do? Will there be no chance to see her again?"

"You think too much, who said she won't come back? When the third master Huan comes back from Yangzhou, she will naturally come back. Didn't uncle Lin say in his letter earlier that he has no intention of remarrying, and the back house is missing Mistress, he will send Miss Lin back." Xiren calmly analyzed the reason for Baoyu.

"Miss Bao is here." She Yue shouted, and opened the door with a smile to invite Baochai in.

Xiren hurriedly wiped Baoyu's tears, and Fang got up to entertain Baochai.Baoyu also put on his shoes and got up to meet her, but his face was not very good.Baochai came in with a smile. Seeing Baoyu's eyes were red, she knew that he had cried and didn't reveal his fault, so she just pretended not to see it.

Baochai and Baoyu discussed: "We have discussed it, and set a table in Lixiangyuan tomorrow for Sister Lin to practice. Will you come?"

"I," Baoyu hung his head, hesitating for a moment, not knowing how to answer.If he went, he would not be able to help but be sad and spoil everyone's interest; if he didn't go, he would not want to miss the opportunity to say goodbye to Sister Lin.

Seeing his hesitation, Baochai got up fortunately to leave. "Forget it, it's up to you whether you come or not, I'm going to call Brother Huan, so I won't talk to you for now."

"You still invite him?" Baoyu stared in surprise.

"Yes," Baochai smiled, "it's not too much to have one more."

……

The next day, Baoyu arrived at Lixiangyuan on time, and sure enough, he saw his younger brother Jia Huan also there.

Daiyu asked Jia Xiuyun if she needed her help to prepare anything.Jia Xiuyun shook his head and said with a smile, "You can just take yourself with you, and leave the rest to the Pei family." Daiyu smiled sweetly when she heard her heart warm.

Baoyu saw that the situation was very delicious, and his heart became more and more heavy. He ran to stand beside the two of them with a sullen head.

Baochai and Aunt Xue had already prepared the food and wine, and invited everyone to the table. Baoyu wanted Daiyu to sit beside her, and stretched out her hand to pull her down.Daiyu dodged cleverly, and scolded him in a low voice: "What are you doing in front of so many people?" After finishing speaking, Daiyu ran to Baochai and Yingchun and sat down beside Baochai and Yingchun, smiling.Baoyu became more and more depressed, and sat beside Jia Huan slowly.

After a while, Baoyu looked around deliberately and asked Baochai, "I haven't seen Brother Xue at school these few days, isn't he here?"

When Aunt Xue heard this, her forced smile finally collapsed.Everyone saw that something was wrong, and asked what was wrong.Jia Xiuyun put down his chopsticks, lowered his head, picked up a glass of wine and drank it all, and then asked the servant girl to pour it for him.But his ears were not idle, he was listening to Aunt Xue telling the story of Xue Pan being beaten and imprisoned.

Aunt Xue said that in the end, she cried so much that she couldn't complain that she had no one to help her. "I was raised by a widowed mother. He didn't know how to honor me. He always made us a burden. I was so angry that I wanted to die. I simply ignored him and told him to suffer in prison. Let's see if he dares next time." dare not."

"Why doesn't Auntie ask Father?" It's the shortest way to eat others, since you have eaten the banquet prepared by Sister Bao, you shouldn't be too indifferent.So Tanchun opened his mouth to advise Aunt Xue, and she realized that it was useless after the words were spoken.If she could ask her father, Aunt Xue would not cry in front of these children.

After Tanchun realized his recklessness, he looked at his younger brother Jia Huan, who was drinking wine with an indifferent appearance.

"Oh, you don't know, he always causes troubles, and brother-in-law has helped him countless times, so I can't bother him anymore. Let it be like this, I can't die." Aunt Xue sighed and replied.After she finished speaking, she glanced towards Jia Xiuyun's direction from the corner of her eye, with surprise and resentment in her eyes.Aunt Xue turned her head to look at Baochai. Baochai realized that the man didn't seem to want to help, so she looked back at her mother helplessly.It seems that today's meal for their mother and daughter is for nothing.

"Don't worry, Auntie. Let's find out which one is offended. As long as the other party doesn't sue, Brother Xue will be released." Baoyu suddenly became energetic and gave Aunt Xue an idea.

Aunt Xue's eyes lit up, and she looked at Baoyu approvingly.He originally expected Jia Huan to say this, but now Baoyu can say it, at least she can continue. "This family can't be offended. That shop belongs to General Pei."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent and looked at Jia Xiuyun.

Jia Xiuyun smiled lightly, yesterday Baochai invited him to dinner after all the good things he had said, so he guessed that their wives must have some purpose.

"Since you belong to the Pei family, third brother, you can help brother Xue, so you don't have to bother father." Tanchun's attitude was very gentle, and he used a humble tone.

Jia Xiuyun raised his eyebrows, doubting Tanchun's sudden change of attitude.But he will definitely 'help' with this job, Jia Xiuyun patted his chest and promised Aunt Xue: "Brother Xue will come back before dark."

Aunt Xue did not expect Jia Xiuyun to agree so simply, she shed tears of joy and thanked Jia Xiuyun so much that she almost knelt down to Jia Xiuyun.It's no use how many people she begged for money these days, and her elder brother Wang Ziteng is not in Beijing, so it's really desperate.When Baochai mentioned Jia Huan to her yesterday, Aunt Xue still didn't believe that the son of a man's wife could have any abilities, but now she had to believe it.

Jia Xiuyun got up and went out to tell the boy to tell him something, only to see the boy run out quickly.Everyone thought that the boy was going to Pei's mansion to intercede, but they didn't know that he was just going to Peiji wine shop to make a pot of daughter's red.

In the evening, before the sun set, the people sent by Aunt Xue did pick up Xue Pan.Jia Xiuyun came to Lixiangyuan one step earlier, and waited with Aunt Xue, mother and daughter, and when he saw someone coming back, he quickly got up and said goodbye.Seeing Jia Xiuyun, Xue Pan got angry and cursed: "Why are you here, get out!"

Snapped!

Aunt Xue slapped Xue Pan's red and swollen face unceremoniously. "Presumptuous, he is your benefactor. If it weren't for you, brother Huan, you would have to stay in prison for the rest of your life!" Xue Pan wanted to speak, but Aunt Xue stared back unceremoniously.It's fine for her son to cause trouble for her again and again, but he still doesn't know how to repent after suffering a loss.Aunt Xue apologized to Jia Xiuyun very guilty, and ordered the nanny to send Jia Xiuyun for her.

Outside the courtyard, Jia Xiuyun sent Mammy back with a smile, but Mammy suddenly smiled, took out a roll of paper from her sleeve, and quickly stuffed it into Jia Xiuyun's hand.Mammy said "Madam's kindness, please accept" and quickly turned around and entered the courtyard.Jia Xiuyun unfolded the paper and found two 500 tael bank notes.

Didn't expect there to be a reward!

Jia Xiuyun chuckled lightly, and took the bank note away politely.In fact, today was the day Xue Pan was released, and there was no need for him to intercede.Forget it, this is Xue Pan's mental damage compensation for bullying him.After Jia Xiuyun's figure disappeared, a figure flashed out behind the plane tree not far from Lixiangyuan, and went straight to the direction where Mrs. Wang lived.

After listening to the waiter's return, Tanchun looked at her in surprise: "Are you sure it's a bank note?"

The waiter nodded: "I don't know the amount, there are two, at least 200 taels of silver."

"Not so little, the Xue family is an imperial merchant, and they have a lot of money, besides, Brother Xue's life is not worth much?" Tan Chun's eyes rolled around, and there was a faint premonition in his heart.This time, she may have really lost her eyesight and didn't see the real truth clearly...

Two days later in the morning, the sun had just risen to a full circle in the east, and the carriage of Pei Mansion had already driven to the gate of Rongguo Mansion.After Jia Xiuyun bid farewell to Jia's mother, he went to see Jia Zheng again and got into the carriage. He and Pei Jin sat in one, Daiyu herself, two male and female servants, and four other carriages for luggage and goods, and 32 horsemen. Escorted by the guards, a group of people sailed to the ferry.

Jia Xiuyun saw Daiyu's nanny, Nanny Wang, helping Daiyu onto the boat, and was told that Miss Lin had made arrangements, and he followed Pei Jin to another boat.There are two rooms for the two of them, east and west, and one room for each person. Jia Xiuyun entered his west room, and eight plates of fruit cakes and brewed hot tea had already been placed on the table in the hall.

Just as Jia Xiuyun was feeling thirsty, he picked up the tea and took a sip, feeling that it was very thirst-quenching and delicious, and drank it all in the next sip.

Aunt Zhao was worried about Jia Xiuyun, so she gave him the little magpie beside her.Jia Xiuyun was too lazy to bring too many people, so luckily he brought Little Magpie and a maid to follow him.

The little magpie hurriedly went out to exchange tea with an empty teacup, and when he went out, he met Uncle Pei who was about to enter. Seeing his majestic appearance, the little magpie was so frightened that his voice trembled: "Slave maid, send greetings to Uncle Pei."

"Well," Pei Jin didn't want to talk to the little girl in front of her at first, but when she heard that her voice was wrong, Fang squinted his eyes, and then entered the door with a gust of cold wind.The little magpie's legs softened immediately, and after a while, Fang walked away.

Jia Xiuyun was sitting and yawning in the room. Pei Jin stood opposite Jia Xiuyun with a smile on his stern face, and said meaningfully, "What's your little girl's name just now? She looks pretty good."

Jia Xiuyun looked at Pei Jin in astonishment when he heard the words, his yawning mouth was opened and he forgot to close it.
