The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

But Huo Sheng came to look for Jia Baoyu suddenly, and the two met at the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Huo Sheng smiled and said: "I know there is a good place to go, come with me, after this village, there will be no such shop."

Baoyu laughed and asked, "Where is it? How do you know I live here?"

Huo Sheng said: "Anyway, you come with me, you will like it."

Baoyu didn't ask any more questions, and called Mingyan to pull the horse, and followed him in the bridle.

After walking for a while, Huo Sheng beat his mount lightly to get a few steps faster, Baoyu also followed, and the boy he brought gave Mingyan a wink.Mingyan hastily pulled the rein, and the two of them fell behind their master.

Huo Shengnai said: "Today my father and king have something to go out, and my grandmother and mother also went to Dongping Palace to listen to an opera. I will quietly take you to see Miss Jia."

Baoyu Yimeng: "What?"

Huo Sheng said calmly, "Huo Xuan is my father."

Baoyu was stunned.

Huo Sheng also slowed down and turned to look at him: "Miss Jia is smart, and she is living a good life now, so you don't have to worry."

For a long time, Baoyu raised his head and asked slowly, "When did you know that I belong to the Rongguo Mansion?"

Huo Sheng said: "I knew it from the beginning. I heard that you are interesting, so I went to find you and have a look."

Baoyu was startled, and smiled wryly, "I'm still that fool anyway."

Huo Sheng said: "Shang Ke, I actually saw you go from extremely stupid to ordinary stupid."

Baoyu gave him a sideways look: "Is this a compliment to me?"

Huo Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, I rarely compliment others."

Baoyu smiled lightly: "I was not very stupid when you saw me." He said again, "I think my sister has received a lot of care from you on weekdays."

Huo Sheng said: "That's not the case. I've never met Sister Ling. She has always lived in peace. With the current situation in our mansion, peace is a good day."

Baoyu nodded and said, "It's good to be safe." He hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help asking, "My sister...maybe she left your house in the future?"

Huo Sheng glanced at him: "The concubine concubine concubine concubine Ji was bestowed by the palace, so I can't get rid of it for no reason."

Baoyu said sadly, "I can't just waste my life like this."

Huo Sheng glanced at the sky, and said: "There are too many people who have been wasted, and it is good to be safe. Besides, our mansion is always better than the palace." Yin sneered, "A few days ago, there was a housekeeper who didn't care about life and death. The girl hastily jumped out to act as a gunman for someone else, she is paralyzed right now."

Baoyu hurriedly asked, "Then she may be fine in the future?"

Huo Sheng said: "Of course it won't get better. It's not bad if you can live for two years. Don't you hear a woman with a concerned look on her face, she is my father's woman. Besides, she committed suicide by herself. He couldn't save her either. He also beat and killed two little girls, and those two were the ones who died unjustly."

Baoyu was so frightened that he didn't dare to ask any more questions. After a moment of silence, he sighed, "Why..."

Huo Sheng looked at him and said with a smile: "In your eyes, all young and beautiful women are good, but in my eyes, all young and beautiful women are bad."

Baoyu said: "My daughter is originally a gifted essence and beauty, how can she be evil?"

Huo Sheng said: "That's how capable your mother is, and your father is incompetent. In my family, the father is strong and the mother is weak. His little wives have tried to kill me since I was still in my mother's womb. I almost fell off my horse and died in a month, but fortunately I am a very good equestrian."

Baoyu's eyes widened.

"Now there is someone in our mansion who is pregnant with a piece of meat, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, with me anyway, even if she gives birth to a son, she will not be able to be a son. As for those who help her, they all want to see that Concubine Qin will not come back. Here, no one in this mansion has been pregnant for many years, and now they are pregnant, and one day they will be pregnant too? I am still in the way." Huo Sheng smiled brightly, but Baoyu was a bit cold when he looked at it Liang, "I'm a son of a bitch, I just won't die! Whether their sons will be born or not, they can't say, even if they are born, I'm here, and they don't have a bright future."

Baoyu was stunned again for a while, then shook his head: "Every time I think that I understand the world, someone always breaks me." Yin bowed his head and sighed.

Huo Sheng smiled and said, "Forget it, you understand a lot better than when I first met you. Then you will be interesting, as if you grew up in a snow cave, you don't know anything."

Baoyu smiled bitterly and said, "That's all. According to what you said, it's better than that day."

They went all the way to Nan'an Palace.At the door, someone had already come up to call for the prince and pull the horse. Huo Sheng led Baoyu in, but no one dared to ask.Baoyu felt disappointed.Last year he was here begging someone to let him in to meet his sister, but he was kicked in the chest by Prince Nan'an.Now no one even asks who he is.

The two of them first went to Huo Sheng's study. Baoyu saw that the place was simple and elegant, with few stubborn objects, so he couldn't help asking: "Why don't you set up some vases?"

Huo Sheng said: "I don't like it. Besides, my family is a general, so I don't have that interest."

Baoyu said with a smile: "My cousin Cong'er is also practicing martial arts, and there is nothing in the room—but if someone gave him the obsolete weapon, he took it all to his sister."

Huo Sheng frowned: "Jia Cong?"

Baoyu said, "Do you know him?"

Huo Sheng said: "I heard. He went shopping with your uncle at the beginning of the month, and ran into the saint white dragon fish suit by chance. Many people are looking for him."

Baoyu said happily, "I've never heard of him having such luck."

Huo Sheng couldn't help turning his head to look at him, "Haven't you heard of it?"

Baoyu said: "I was still in the academy at the beginning of the month. Now it's the New Year's Eve. He is young and lively, and he likes to go out to watch the excitement and play. Because I haven't been filial to my grandmother for many days, I stay at home with her old man every day. Therefore, the two of us still No time for small talk."

Huo Sheng glanced at him again, and turned around: "Forget it, we'll talk about this tomorrow. I'll send someone to take you to see Miss Jia, and just say something to yourself, so don't delay too long."

Baoyu hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply to him: "You don't say thank you for your kindness, you know and I know."

Huo Sheng waved his hand and said, "A few trivial things, but just do it easily. If it wasn't for the fact that there is no adult in the house today, I wouldn't be too lazy to meddle in other people's business." He casually took a book from the desk to read.

Baoyu bowed his head and smiled, then followed a big maid quietly out of the back door of his study and walked towards Yuanchun's small courtyard.It took half a day to arrive, and Baoyu was a little worried all the way because of the serious maid.The big girl knocked on the door, after a while, a little girl came out, she was taken aback when she saw them.

The big maid said in a low voice: "This is Miss Jia's brother. Because he is a friend of the Shizi, the Shizi specially ordered him to meet with Miss Jia. Don't delay too long."

The little girl was startled, and said: "Is it the Second Master Bao of Rongguo Mansion?"

Baoyu hurriedly stepped forward and made a bow: "Exactly, please trouble sister maid."

The little girl frowned slightly, looked at him a few times, and said politely: "Please excuse my servant's impoliteness, but what is the name of the person that Second Master Bao envoys every time to deliver things to our girl?"

Baoyu said, "It's my bookboy Mingyan."

The little girl asked again: "What did you send last time? When did you send it?"

Baoyu said: "It's just that I transcribed two of my homework, that is, ten days ago."

"What's in the bundle that your family delivered for the first time?"

Baoyu said: "The piano score I collected for my sister was sent by my sister Yu Cong'er in the room."

The little girl looked at him again, and finally nodded: "The eyebrows and eyes are just like what Ming Yan said." Because he bowed again, "Don't blame the second master, because you are a man, we girls are cautious, I'm afraid There is fraud."

Baoyu wondered, "I'm her younger brother. What can I do? You'll know when we meet?"

The little girl and the big girl who brought him looked at each other, turned sideways to let the two of them in, and immediately closed the courtyard door.

Baoyu was very puzzled, turned around and glanced at the courtyard, it was really small, there was a small plum blossom standing quietly in front of the courtyard, and the fragrance was quite touching.The little girl led them inside.

I saw a woman in her twenties sitting on a small couch in a plain robe. Although she didn't wear makeup or hairpins, her eyes were clear and peaceful, and she asked softly, "Lu Qi, who is it?" Seeing a young man coming in, he was also slightly taken aback.

Baoyu hadn't seen her for many years, and he could vaguely discern some traces of her childhood, and immediately burst into tears, she rushed forward and called "Sister".

Yuan Chun suddenly understood, quickly took him into his arms, stroked his head and neck and said with a smile: "It's a lot longer than before..." The siblings hugged each other and cried.

After a while, the two of them recovered a bit, Yuan Chun looked up, and there was no one in the room.He took Baoyu's hand and asked, "How are your parents and grandma? How are you doing in that academy?"

Baoyu said: "It's all right. The old ancestor's body is quite strong. I'm in the academy and I'm doing well." Then he talked about some trivial things at home. He naturally didn't dare to say that Xue Pan made a big fuss in Rongguo Mansion yesterday.

Yuan Chun sighed, "I'm relieved that you are well." Yin said, "Your article has really improved, but the foundation is still a bit superficial." Then he took out a large stack of paper.

Baoyu saw that she had transcribed all her poems and articles, and then commented and annotated them in detail. She couldn't help but praised: "Sister is a great talent."

Yuan Chun said with a smile: "Although I have little talent and learning, it is not arrogant to point out you, a kid. You can read it when you go back."

Baoyu hurriedly said, "My sister's words are pearls. I'll go back and learn." He hurriedly put them all in his arms, bulging.

Yuan Chun felt happy, stroked the top of his head again and said with a smile: "Bring me your precious jade, I have never seen it at home a few times before, I have forgotten what it looks like."

Baoyu's face froze, and he hesitated for a long time: "That thing is a bit cold, and I didn't take it with me in winter. My sister wants to see it. Next time I bring it, I will put it at your place and play slowly."

Yuan Chun glanced at him immediately, and Baoyu's sharp eyes twitched.Yuan Chun sighed: "I am satisfied this time if I can get it, how can I dare to think about it next time. When you were young, your nurse would put the jade under the pillow to cover it in winter, so that it would not freeze when you wear it the next day." Neck. Why can't the maids know this anymore? Don't coax me, what happened?"

Baoyu faltered and quibbled a few more words, but Yuan Chunfen didn't believe it, so he just looked at him with his eyes.Baoyu finally bowed his head and said, "That jade...I gave it to Brother Xue for the time being."

Yuan Chun was taken aback: "Who?"

"It's Aunt Xue's son. Our family owed them a lot of silver, so I gave him that and asked him to use it as collateral."

Yuan Chun was shocked: "Say it clearly! What exactly is it?"

Baoyu sighed softly, and slowly said some inappropriate things about deleting Xue Pan's debt, and finally said with a frown: "I thought about it all night last night, and I don't know where to get the money."

Yuan Chun thought for a long time after hearing the words, and asked: "Brother Cong's idea, can the Xue family follow?"

Baoyu was startled: "This... my ancestors never told me."

Yuan Chun glanced at him again, and sighed: "Why wait for others to tell you about such a big deal? I see that you will be 13 years old, you have to find out by yourself. I think his idea is good, but the Xue family Maybe not." She thought about it for a while, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, don't worry about this matter, in the future you should be filial to the old lady and wife. Also, in the future, I will spend more time with the big house."

Although Baoyu didn't quite understand, he nodded.

The two of them talked for a while, and the big maid outside came in and said, "Second Master Jia, it's time to go."

Baoyu was very reluctant, but Yuanchun smiled: "It's rare to see each other, you go quickly, don't cause trouble for your son."

Yuan Chun stood up and sent him straight to the gate of the courtyard.Baoyu only took two steps to the door, but couldn't help looking back.Yuan Chun didn't dare to go out, so he just waved his hand in the courtyard.Baoyu held back his tears and stepped out, only to hear a "creak" behind him, and the door closed.With tears in his eyes, he followed the big maid who led the way back to Huo Sheng's study.

But at this moment, Huo Sheng had other things to do and didn't know where he went, so he only stayed with the boy who had just followed them all the way, and ordered that Second Master Jia should send him out through the gate when he returned.Baoyu had no choice but to ask the boy to thank Huo Sheng again and again, and left with tears.

As soon as he left, the big servant girl found Huo Sheng on her back, and she reported one by one what his siblings had just said in the room.Huo Sheng laughed and said, "That Jia Cong is indeed very intelligent, and he is not on the same level as his father. No wonder the saints are willing to listen to him." He sighed, "I don't know that Baoyu's temperament may be clean forever."

Unexpectedly, when Huo Xuan came back this day, he would first go to Aunt Liu's room to take a look.Aunt Liu hurriedly pulled him and whispered: "My lord, I heard that the prince brought a very handsome young master back today, but the child left with tears in his eyes, and the prince didn't go to see him off."

Huo Xuan was a little tired after a day of banquet outside, but he was so shocked when he heard the words, he even woke up from the wine: "Who is that young master?"

Aunt Liu said: "I don't know about this, I heard the little girl say it when I was half asleep, and I was so dazed that I didn't know who was talking about it."

Huo Xuan couldn't help all kinds of thoughts flooding into his mind, he hurriedly called a confidant to come over and ask him to inquire.It turned out that when Baoyu was making trouble in front of their mansion in the past, no one paid attention to what he looked like. Today, the gatekeepers didn't recognize him at all, and the son didn't tell anyone who he was, so it didn't take long. The confidant came back and reported: "The son really brought a young master back, and the two went to his study together. Later, he came out to practice guns in the back by himself. The young master seemed to have been waiting in the study for a long time before leaving. When he left The prince is still practicing guns."

Huo Xuan became more and more restless, walking back and forth in the room, thinking wildly.For a while, I was afraid that my son had really learned some messy things about Longyang, and I was afraid that he had been wronged.After thinking for a long time, I finally went to the princess's courtyard.Aunt Liu smiled and called for tea from behind.

The concubine also heard about this, and like Huo Xuan, she couldn't figure out what to do, and she stamped her feet in a hurry.As soon as the two of them met, Huo Xuan immediately ordered everyone in the room to go out, and whispered about it with the princess.

The princess hurriedly said: "I am also worried about this, but I don't know how to ask him."

Huo Xuan thought for a while, and said: "I know Sheng'er, he is really a good boy, even if someone wants to bring him down, I'm afraid it will not be easy. He is not young anymore, I will return to the camp to take him after the new year Let’s go together, it’s better to go to the army to practice earlier.”

The princess was startled, how could she be willing to have her son?Hastily persuaded: "How old is he, why did he go to the military camp? He is a prince. You just order a few people to watch carefully, and then ask who the young master is, maybe he is an ordinary friend from outside? What's more, didn't he drive that man away? The barracks are full of rough people, so what if there is a bumper!"

That's all for the front, but Huo Xuan couldn't help being furious when he heard the back: "I have long hair but short knowledge! I have fought in wars when I was his age! Brut, how can you have your clothes and snacks without those bastards?" The sleeves are gone.
