Melting love and rhyme make up the red building

Soluble 'Phew! ’ With a sound, she shook her head again. Seeing her son like this, the concubine suddenly felt unexplained troubles in her heart.When they were about to ask each other, they saw a person walking in from outside the door.

"Greetings to the concubine, greetings to the lord!" Shui Rong's girl Feixu gave a blessing with a smile, and said to Shui Rong with a smile: "Today afternoon, it is said that Mr. Jia Baoyu from the Rongguo Mansion came to visit. Unfortunately, the prince is not here, so he left a letter to say goodbye, saying that he will come back another day."

Shui Rong raised his eyebrows: "It's so careless! Let's go, wait for me to go back and see what this Mr. Jia said in the letter." Then he turned around and bowed to the concubine, "In that case, Rong Don't bother the mother and concubine anymore, you should rest earlier, and the son will come to pay his respects tomorrow."

Concubine Bei Jing originally wanted to ask what happened to Miss Lin?He changed his mind when he was about to speak, and said: "My son has been tired all day, why don't you go back and rest first, this matter can't be rushed."

In Yinxi, Shui Rong took the letter left by Baoyu in his hand and looked at it, then put it aside.In the early morning of the next day, Shui Rong couldn't wait to send someone to Jia's mansion to call Baoyu over.

Baoyu came here yesterday because he wanted to ask Shui Rong about the whereabouts of the actress Jiang Yuhan. Because that year when King Zhongshun came to Jia's house to look for him, Baoyu inadvertently revealed Yuhan's residence. Unfortunately, he was arrested again and broke up with Baoyu. Contact, Baoyu regretted it afterwards, always wanted to find an opportunity to express to Yuhan that he didn't say it on purpose that day, and asked for forgiveness, but he couldn't find him.

Early this morning, Xiren was rummaging through boxes outside, saying that it would be the birthday of Yu Chuan'er next to his wife in a few days, thinking of something to give.That Baoyu had nothing to do all day long, and recently he was on vacation because the teacher in the school had an old illness. When he saw the attacker looking for something, he followed him, but he saw the big red sweater with his sharp eyes, so he Thinking of Qiguaner Jiang Yuhan again.

I thought that I confessed it unintentionally back then, but just talked about Qiguan's residence in a random way. Who would have thought that he hid in the Red Sandalwood Castle for a few days!well!Thinking of this, Baoyu couldn't help sighing again.

Xiren was rummaging around, seeing Baoyu groaning for no reason, knowing that he had always been like this, he said with a smile, "I'm looking for things here, and the second master is not interested in looking at them. It's better to go outside and find that sister to have a joke for a while, and save money." I'm bored here, but let me calm down and find it!"

Baoyu reached out to take the sweat towel and said, "I don't know where Qiguan'er is now?"

Xiren straightened his body and said: "I heard that the second master said that year, he was arrested again, and now he must be in the palace of Zhongshun. Why is the second master going to meet opera singers again? Seeing that the master knows and beats the master again!"

Baoyu shook his head and said: "I inquired about it last year, and he was not in Prince Zhongshun's mansion, and I heard that King Zhongshun lost his temper because of his private escape, so he was imprisoned after returning to the mansion, and he was not seen coming out to sing operas during the New Year. If you want to be loyal to Wang Suri and act viciously, you will definitely not let him go lightly!"

When Xiren heard Baoyu say this, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and asked, "You won't kill him because of this?"

Baoyu couldn't help tears in his eyes, stretched out his hand and said, "I heard that he is no longer in the palace of Zhongshun, but he doesn't know where he is? It's really hard to miss!"

Xiren held a brand-new purse in his hand and stood there blankly, not knowing how to comfort Baoyu.

After a while, Xi Ren said: "On weekdays, the second master doesn't just go to the homes of princes and nobles to chat, why not go and inquire, maybe you can find it!"

Baoyu sighed and said, "Since my eldest sister has gone, these mansions don't invite me very often. How can I ask?"

Xiren thought about it again, and said: "A few days ago, the second master also said that he was happy when he went to the Northern Palace to recite poems and paint with the prince, why did he forget it?"

Baoyu calmed down, and said with a smile on his face: "You still think carefully, but there is still the Prince of Beijing!" Difficult, so I pointed out something and came to Beiwang's mansion, but the prince was not in the mansion, so I had to leave a message for help to inquire.

No, the next day the prince sent someone to invite him, and Baoyu came to the Beijing Palace in a busy and happy manner.

When Shui Rong saw Baoyu coming in, he took a step forward and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days, the young master is even more handsome and handsome!" Baoyu was busy paying respects and paying homage, and also said with a smile: "The prince's elegance is comparable to others?"

Shui Rong smiled lightly: "You and I don't need to flatter each other like this!"

Baoyu also laughed and said, "The villain is speaking from the heart, and he doesn't mean to be flattering at all."

For a while, Cheng En served tea, Baoyu hurriedly took it with both hands, and Shui Rong gave him a seat again.Baoyu took a sip and said cautiously: "I don't know if the prince has a way to find the whereabouts of Qiguan?"

Shui Rong was thinking about how to open his mouth to ask about Daiyu, so he might as well let Baoyu open his mouth first, then thought for a while and said: "This king usually ignores such things the most, and he is just like King Zhongshun. It’s okay, I don’t have anything to do with each other, but I can send someone to help you find it, but the loyal prince has always been meticulous in his work, so it will take some time.”

After hearing this, Baoyu stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, my lord, for your help. Baoyu thanked you in advance."

Shui Rong motioned Baoyu to sit down, and then asked: "Let's not talk about that for now, the concubine went to your house to chat yesterday, did you know?"

Baoyu laughed and said, "Why don't you know? Didn't the prince also go, but Baoyu was not in the mansion at the time, if he knew, he wouldn't have made the trip yesterday. By the way, I heard from my grandmother that the old concubine was still so strong, but Make the old lady envious."

Shui Rong was very confused, but he had no choice but to say perfunctorily, "The concubine is only over forty years old, how can she be more blessed than the old lady! There are many children and grandchildren under her knees, except for the filial piety of the children, it is only the grandchildren who are girls." My son is around me all day, and my mother and concubine will not stop talking about it when they return home!"

When Baoyu heard that others praised her sisters, she was very happy, so she said with a smile: "The sisters in my family dare not say that they are rare in the world, but they are all very rare. The old lady loves her so much!" The speech in front of him was so revealing, so he stopped talking again, picked up the teacup and took a sip to conceal it.

Shui Rong would not let go of this opportunity, and hurriedly said: "I heard from my mother and concubine that it would be the greatest fortune if any of these girls married one of them!" Baoyu couldn't help but said casually: "Isn't it! I don't know why the prince said this, could it be that the prince also has this intention?"

Shui Rong smiled slightly: "Concubine Mu came back and talked with this king for a long time, I think Concubine Mu has this intention, but—" Speaking of this, Shui Rong deliberately didn't continue.

Baoyu's mind became hot, and he smiled and said, "But what? Didn't the prince have seen them yesterday?"

Shui Rong smiled and said: "Although I saw it, it's just a little farther away, and the appearance is nothing, but I don't know about poetry and books? You know, this king respects poetic women the most."

After hearing this, Baoyu stood up, sang to Shui Rong, raised her head again, narrowed her eyes and said casually:

The rogue Poetry Demon invades at dawn, and surrounds the fence and the stone is silent.

The fine end is beautiful and written by Linshuang, and the mouth is full of fragrance and sings to the moon. ?The paper is full of self-pity and plain grievances, who can explain Qiu Xin in a few words.

After Tao Ling Pingzhang, Qiangu Gaofeng talked about it to this day. ?

Baoyu smiled triumphantly after reading, "My lord, this is just an accidental work for them to enjoy in private."

Shui Rong shouted: "What a poem! What a 'smelling mouth'! Which girl did it? Thanks to such a clever idea to make such a good sentence?"

Baoyu laughed and said, "That's my next cousin. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Her talent is beyond the reach of ordinary women."

Shui Rong praised again: "What a beautiful and talented woman! This king also saw her yesterday, and she looks familiar! Hmm...it seems to be a woman that this king once saw at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain."

Hearing Shui Rong's praise, Baoyu's face suddenly turned pale. On that day, sister Lin was wearing her own Confucian white clothes, and she was at the foot of the mountain when she wanted to go up to the prince. My sister can't do it?

Baoyu suppressed the panic in his heart, and asked cautiously: "But someone who looks weak? Has a slightly sad face?"

The corner of Shui Rong's mouth twitched upwards: "Is that woman in white clothes Ling's cousin Miss Lin?"

Seeing the inexplicable excitement on Shui Rong's face, Baoyu couldn't help feeling anxious, his head was sweating all of a sudden, and with a look of anxious embarrassment, he lowered his head and whispered back: "It's Sister Lin."

Seeing Baoyu's anxious face, Shui Rong remembered that every time Baoyu talked about Miss Lin's love and affection in front of him, he knew in his heart that he must be his beloved.

Then he tentatively said: "Why does the young master have such an expression, dare to ask if this girl has a marriage contract with the young master?"

Baoyu hurriedly said, "No."

Shui Rong felt relieved after hearing this, and said again: "So..." Before he finished speaking, Baoyu said anxiously: "Sister Lin and I have been childhood sweethearts since we were young, and now my sister is alone again. I think we will always be together in the future. .”

After hearing Baoyu's words, Shui Rong was shocked again!He didn't show it on his face, "Why is it such a coincidence? This king is also very interested in this Miss Lin! Hearing what you said, you will definitely be engaged in the future?" He asked deliberately: "Could it be that this Miss Lin is still young?"

Baoyu sighed: "After the new year, you will be sixteen."

Shui Rong asked in amazement: "At this age, if you were interested, you should have agreed on this marriage a long time ago, so why did it drag on till today?"

Baoyu lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Marriage is supposed to follow the orders of parents. There is no such intention from above. How can I mention it? We can only wait and see."

Shui Rong said: "If there is no one who likes you, but you just obey your parents' orders and the matchmaker's advice, and you have a beautiful woman by your side, and your son has such intentions, why don't you mention to your parents that the marriage is made in heaven?"

Baoyu was speechless, only talking nonsense, and Shui Rong suddenly said: "It must be that the girl has no intention of caring for you?" Baoyu said anxiously: "My sister must also have me in her heart, but..."

"Just what? If your parents chose another husband for you, would you be willing?" Shui Rong forgot his original intention at this time.

Baoyu hurriedly shook his head again and again, Shui Rong sighed: "But it's still! If you don't say it, your mother will not know your mind." Shui Rong laughed again: "If you don't say it, the king will have to I have come to propose marriage, it is rare that the concubine mother and the king have both seen it right this time!"

After hearing this, Baoyu hurriedly said goodbye and left. Even the mood to inquire about Qiguan had long since forgotten to go to Java.

After Baoyu left, Shui Rong remained silent for a long time, lamenting that the heavens were unfair, that she had finally found a loving person, but she was loved by others long ago.

The king of Beijing Jing finally didn't want to take away his love, so he went to the concubine again, saying that he didn't want to talk about marriage for the time being. , I had no choice but to give up temporarily.

Besides, Baoyu came back from the Beijing Palace, and then went to Jiamu's place.

As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I saw Aunt Xue's little girl Tongxi standing outside the upper room, chatting and laughing quietly with the little girl in Jiamu's room!Baoyu knew that Aunt Xue was coming.

When Tongxi saw Baoyu, he smiled and said hello, and said, "Second Master Bao came from the garden? But did you see our girl?"

Baoyu had something in his mind, so he said dumbly, "I just went outside, and I haven't returned to the garden yet, but I haven't seen Sister Bao."

Tong Xi saw that Second Master Bao was not as easy-going as before, so he didn't dare to make a mistake, and said with a smile: "Look at the sun outside, come in quickly, Second Master." He helped to draw up the curtain

Baoyu didn't want to say anything more, so he nodded slightly and went into the room.

I saw Jia's mother lying on the couch at will, but Aunt Xue was sitting on the footstep beside her, chatting and laughing with the old lady!

Seeing Baoyu coming, without waiting for him to come up to pay respects, Aunt Xue said with a smile, "I'm talking about you here, it's upside down!"

Bao Yuqiang accompanied him with a smile and said, "Auntie is here." He was busy and saluted.

Aunt Xue quickly took Baoyu's hand and said to Jia Mu, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and my brother has grown taller."

Jia's mother smiled lightly: "The little one has not grown up yet! I haven't seen my concubine for a few days, but I don't think it's different from before."

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "The old lady is right."

Turning to Baoyu again, he said with a smile: "The day before yesterday your elder brother was still talking about you and said that he wanted to invite you to talk! I stopped him after a meal. He didn't have anything good to say, but he just wanted to drink in a different way." , I don’t have any more time to spend with you, why not read more books, so that I can have a good future in the future.”

Mother Jia sneered when she heard this, she had such a clever mouth, she could talk a lot more than her wooden elder sister!In the end, it was not easy to expose her, so he said: "Thanks to the good words of my aunt."

Baoyu wanted to tell the old lady what was on her mind first. If the old lady agreed, it would be inseparable from the end of the matter.Although he knew that his wife didn't like Sister Lin very much, but he didn't dare to take the old lady's opinion when he thought about it. When he opened his mouth, he looked up and saw that Aunt Xue was looking at him with a smile!

Baoyu thought that Aunt Xue had no intention of leaving, so she thought it would be better to wait for her to leave and then find a time to come and report to Jia Mu.

Then he said to Jia Mu: "I just went to the Beijing Palace to meet the prince. I am a little tired and want to go back and rest."

Jia's mother hurriedly said: "It's hot in the sun, go back quickly, and come back in time for the evening to cool down."

Baoyu agreed, and said goodbye to Aunt Xue. She didn't want Aunt Xue to stand up and said to Jia Mu with a smile, "I've been here for a while. I think the old lady is tired. Why don't I go back too, and go with Brother Bao on the way?" I went to sit with my sister, and I will come back another day to say hello to the old lady."

Mother Jia was noncommittal, so Aunt Xue came out with Baoyu and walked towards Mrs. Wang's yard.Baoyu didn't dare to say anything else, so he followed Aunt Xue to Mrs. Wang's residence.

The little girl informed her to go in, and Aunt Xue and Baoyu entered the room with a smile.I saw Wang Fuzheng sitting on the kang with his eyes closed, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and kept twisting them.

As soon as he saw the two of them, he smiled and said, "Why did you two come together? Didn't Baoyu go to the Beijing Palace? My sister has gone to see the old lady?"

Aunt Xue laughed and said, "Brother dared to come back and go to the old lady's place to say hello. I was a little tired looking at the old lady, so I passed my sister's place with my brother to have a look."

Mrs. Wang nodded and said with a smile: "I'm fine, that's all. It's just that the old lady's illness is difficult to recover these days, which makes people feel uneasy!"

"Why do I see that the old lady is in good spirits?" Aunt Xue said.

At this time, Yu Chuan'er came over and asked Aunt Xue to sit down and served tea.Mrs. Wang also signaled Baoyu to sit beside her.

Baoyu had no choice but to sit down, so she had to ask her mother how she was doing casually, and was praised by Aunt Xue again. After listening to her sister's words, Mrs. Wang was even more delighted, and her face was completely swept away. His indifferent attitude turned into a pleasant smile.

The image of Mrs. Wang appeared so kind and kind in Baoyu's eyes at this time, and Baoyu's heart felt hot. Although his father didn't like him in the usual days, the mother still loved her son the most.

Thinking of this, Baoyu couldn't help leaning her head on her mother's shoulder, and Mrs. Wang stroked Baoyu's black hair lovingly, and said with a smile: "It's still my Baoyu who knows how to love his mother, and it's not in vain to raise him!"

"Look at what my sister said? Who can compare to Baoyu's filial piety? Look at my ignorant Pan'er, who doesn't even need to lift Bao'er's shoes!"

Mrs. Wang also laughed and said: "Pan'er is just a little mischievous. She has a daughter-in-law now. In a few days, it will be better if someone takes care of her."

When Aunt Xue heard Mrs. Wang mentioning her daughter-in-law Jingui, she became angry and said with a sigh: "I shouldn't have said this in front of the children. This daughter-in-law is really the nemesis of me and Chai'er." What! I can’t get along with Chai’er all day, no, I brought Chai’er in when I came to my sister, so that she can relax!”

Mrs. Wang can't say anything about other people's family affairs, but she couldn't see her sister sighing, so she persuaded her: "I'm still a new wife and an only daughter. Just accept my sister's teaching, and it will be fine."

"Come on! How dare I talk about her! She's not going well after coaxing her! She yells and yells at every turn, and sometimes even Chai'er gets involved. She's actually a savage!"

Because Baoyu went to Aunt Xue's place to see Jingui once, she looked at an ordinary beautiful woman, but she might as well be said to be like this by her aunt, so she asked: "Sister Bao is the most tolerant, but she is treated like this. Unexpected!"

Aunt Xue hurriedly said: "Look, you two have been together since childhood, and you also know that your elder sister Bao is the one who doesn't cause trouble, but she is often noisy. Do you mean that you are annoying and not annoying?"

Baoyu said again: "Then let Sister Bao live back in Hengwu Courtyard, so as not to be angry with her again."

Mrs. Wang also laughed and said: "What did I say, Bao Yuer also misses her sister Bao, why don't you live here, and save her troubles every day."

Aunt Xue stopped talking, winked at Mrs. Wang, and said, "Why did sister forget? It's so inconvenient for Chai'er to live here..."
