[Red Mansions] Why does Xiaoye want to whitewash

"Grandmother's good grandson, since you are so blessed, why don't we call him Baoyu?"

Jia Lian heard the old lady say the word "Baoyu" in his ear, turned his eyes away from the piece of jade, looked at the old lady and said, "Baoyu, the name grandchildren, is the best sounding, but what do you think?" Grandson has a little objection to wanting to celebrate the things that are advertised..."

Mother Jia looked over in surprise, and asked a little puzzled, "Why?"

"Baoyu has just been born now. Even if he is blessed, we should be careful not to let this fortune be broken. If outsiders know that someone who is not good will do something to hurt him... we will regret it. It's too late." After Jia Lian finished speaking, seeing his grandmother looking thoughtful, he continued: "After all, there are indeed some strange people and strange things in this world that we don't know about, and it's unknown whether there will be people coveting other people's luck... "

When Jia Mu heard this, she frowned and nodded, "What Lian'er said makes sense, then..." Looking at the stone in Baoyu's arms, she was troubled, "It's also because I was too old and careless, and Baoyu was born with jade. Everyone in the courtyard knows about it, but how can we control it..."

Jia Lian smiled slightly, and said: "It's enough to order that no rumors are allowed. With the power of our Jia family, as long as the disturbance is not known to everyone in the city, it should be resolved."

"can."

Now that it made sense, Jia Lian glanced at the nannies and maidservants in the room, and seeing them nodding their heads repeatedly to express that they would not spread the word, she went out and said to her second uncle and stepmother: "Just now, my grandmother discussed it with me and felt that it would be a big celebration." The birth of my younger brother is really inappropriate, so Lian came over to talk to my second uncle."

Jia Zheng cared about his reputation the most. When he was born on the first day of the Yuanchun New Year, he thought that his daughter must have an indescribable fate, so he loved him very much; now his youngest son was born with such great luck. , he naturally wished that everyone would know and envy him.

So at this time, when Jia Lian said that her mother changed her mind and didn't want to make a big deal, she felt a little unhappy in her heart, and she couldn't help showing something on her face, "Why is this?"

Jia Lian did not answer immediately, but glanced at the second aunt's companion Zhou Rui's house, and asked, "How is second aunt now?"

"The second lady is a little tired physically, but her spirit is not bad."

Jia Lian nodded after hearing this, and said, "Please tell my second aunt that my grandmother gave my cousin the nickname Baoyu. But many people often give their newborns some humble names in order to suppress the blessing of their newborns so that they can grow up healthily. It’s easy to make a living, although Baoyu’s name is not elegant, it is definitely not a cheap name, so it should be more low-key, after all, fate is good, but I’m afraid that someone will harbor malicious intentions..."

As for how others will mess with Jia Lian, he didn't go into details. After all, if they practice such things as changing their fate, moving their souls, and seizing their lives, they will definitely be unable to prevent them as mortals. At this time, we have to rejoice. Immortals are more like young people, and I feel that they are better at pretending to be gods and ghosts.

But even this is enough, the ancients were superstitious, so it was easy to believe that, when the second aunt knew about it, she would naturally strictly restrain the servants of the second room in order to protect the youngest son.

So after Jia Lian finished speaking, he went back to the first room with his stepmother without talking too much about the servants of the second room.After getting off the sedan chair, Jia Lian asked and learned that his father hadn't gotten up yet, so he said to Mrs. Xing, "My son also hopes that mother will not take things too seriously about Baoyu."

Mrs. Xing was startled for a moment, then she nodded with a wry smile, "I have already accepted my fate after all these years."

"If you feel that your knees are desolate, you can hold other children by your father's side to raise." Immediately, the reaction seemed to confirm that Madam Xing would not have any more children, and thought that Madam Xing did not like to raise her in Yingchun. , and said: "Your luck is yet to come, and your father has never had a problem with you because of this. Don't think too much, there are me and Feng'er."

The reason why Jia Lian appeases Mrs. Xing is because the two of them got along fairly well during this period of time. Although Mrs. Xing is said to be stupid and small-hearted, she doesn't seem to have a vicious heart at present. Compared with Jia She, he thinks it is cute too much.

However, Mrs. Xing was not very happy when she heard Jia Lian's words, but said with some hesitation: "The daughter-in-law is your second aunt's niece, so getting close is also getting close to the second room?"

Mrs. Xing really thought that Wang Xifeng was very pleasing before, but when she regained her composure, she realized that her mother-in-law is absolutely inferior to her aunt in terms of getting close, and she didn't feel that her worry was unnecessary.

Regarding this point, Jia Lian felt that it was not a problem.When he was willing to propose marriage at the beginning, he had thought that he didn't really care how close Wang Xifeng was to his aunt, as long as he didn't do things that would disregard human life and the law.

And this is his business, if he knows his wife is bold and allows her to break the law, as a husband, he also has an unshirkable responsibility.

As for Mrs. Wang, Jia Zhu is naturally looking after her. If there is a sign at that time, tell Jia Zhu that he will restrain his mother. After all, Jia Zhu will be an official in the future, and no one can hold him back.

……

In the past few days after Baoyu was born, Jia Lian paid attention to it, and found that the news of Baoyu's birth with jade had not been spread, so he ignored it.

Mother Jia wanted to love her little grandson more, but now the promising grandson is more important, so naturally all her thoughts are put on Jia Zhu's marriage.

Jia Lian didn't get involved in the wedding, because Jia Zhu's marriage and Jia Zheng were extremely satisfied, so he didn't just think about the lonely woman, reciting poems and composing poems, but went to arrange the eldest son's wedding himself.

And Jia Lian was also very happy as Jia Zhu's wedding day got closer. After Jia Zhu got married, his second aunt was going to give birth again, which meant that his vacation was finally coming soon, and he could be the shopkeeper directly.

Before the wedding, Jia Zhu took leave from the Imperial College and came back, and he showed up every time he went to Li's house to hire him, and his face was not as calm as usual, but with some youthful emotions.

On the day of the wedding, Jia Zhu invited a lot of literary classmates in order not to be at a disadvantage in Yue's family. Jia Lian invited Zeng Jinghuai to go with him. What if military support is needed? It came from a family of poets and books, but Li Shouzhong believed that his daughter should obey, so they took back the bride smoothly.

For her son's wedding, the second aunt, Mrs. Wang, also appeared at the wedding ceremony to accept the worship of the new couple.

Before Jia Zhu entered the bridal chamber at night, she called Jia Lian to a corner and said, "My classmates have long said that they are going to make a bridal chamber. Lian'er, help me stop them later."

"Why stop it? Everyone has a sense of proportion. Wouldn't it spoil the fun of everyone?" If Jia Lian didn't have some brotherhood in his heart, he would also want to join in the fun.

Of course Jia Zhu knew that her friends were harmless, but it's not surprising that he is a little bit ashamed as a newlywed, isn't it?Then he said in a low voice: "When you get married, Lian'er, the elder brother will also help you, how about it?"

Jia Lian wanted to say that he didn't really care if anyone came to make trouble, but after thinking about it, he nodded his conscience, "Okay, you can rest assured that I have a younger brother in the bridal chamber."

Jia Zhu patted Jia Lian on the shoulder, and then laughed again, "Thank you in advance, brother."

So at night, before Jia Zhu entered the bridal chamber, he gave Jia Lian a wink, and Jia Lian immediately raised his wine glass to divert everyone's attention, "Today, my big brother Zhu got married, so I am lucky to meet everyone. My younger brother is not talented in reading, but he has been studying all the time." I am very envious of everyone who is talented in reading but works hard, and I must toast to everyone today."

To

Jia Zhen at the other table couldn't help but sneered when she heard Jia Lian's words, but he didn't expose it. Instead, when he thought of having a bridal chamber, he called a few boys from Jia's family to help Jia Lian, which was regarded as a gift to Jia Zhu. Save face.

Later, everyone discovered Jia Lian's intentions, and naturally it was impossible to let him go.It's just that Jia Lian is considerate, and asked the boy to prepare some wine mixed with water from the beginning, but even so, Jia Lian still drank too much.

He knows how uncomfortable it is to be drunk, and when he thinks it's not good, he immediately lies on the table and pretends to be dizzy, no matter who tells him to die, he can't afford it.

Fortunately, it was already very late at this time, and the happiest people in the front were basically drinking a little unsteadily. After all, everyone except him drank real wine, and the mansion also sent someone to deliver it. After returning home, those who were inconvenient also arranged accommodation in the mansion.

Jia Lian's mind was quite clear, but it was the first time in his life that he drank so much, and he was still a little shaky when he walked, so when the servant helped him back, he leaned over as if he had no bones.

Being helped back to her own room, Jia Lian immediately fell over when she saw the bed, her face felt a little warm when she closed her eyes and felt drowsy. After thinking for a while, she thought that someone should have wiped her face.Then the arm was raised, and it felt like the coat was taken off and the quilt was put on again.

Just when Jia Lian was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt as if a hand was moving and stroking his face. He was startled and woke up a little. Before he opened his eyes, he raised his hand to grab the hand on his face.Then he opened his eyes and looked up at the person who was Qimei.

"Young, Young Master?" Qimei felt a little guilty, but immediately adjusted and asked softly, "Are you awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

Jia Lian looked at her blankly and asked, "Why are you here?"

"My servant is cleaning up for you. If you don't tidy it up, tomorrow you will despise the smell on your body..." As she spoke, Qimei glanced at her grasped hand and said shyly, "Master..."

Jia Lian immediately let go of her hand, closed her eyes, and said after a while: "You don't need to serve here, so go back first."

Qimei bit her lip, stood up straight and said "yes".

Before leaving, he prepared warm water and put it on the bedside, and said softly to Jia Lian, "The water is here. If you get thirsty at night, you can reach it with your hand." Seeing that he didn't make a sound, he left disappointed.

When it was confirmed that there was no one in the room, Jia Lian couldn't control the alcohol and fell asleep.
