[Red Chamber] Mrs. Lin replaced her

Due to the matter of Second Sister You, the people in Rongguo Mansion fell into short-term busyness.When Jia's mother finally finished her work, she discovered something that made her extremely angry: at some point in the mansion, there was a rumor about a golden and jade marriage.Even, this kind of saying has gradually spread outside the palace.

The emergence of rumors broke Jiamu's beautiful fantasy about the marriage of the third generation of Rongguo Mansion, and made her dream of Rongguo Mansion's infinite scenery once again come to naught.This heavy blow made Jia's mother lose her breath and passed out again.

Originally, Mother Jia fell in love with the power and wealth behind Jia Zi and Lin Hai. Moreover, Lin Daiyu was outstanding in terms of character, appearance, and talent. In addition, Jia Baoyu himself had a good impression of Lin Daiyu. .Therefore, Jia's mother turned her idea on Lin Daiyu, hoping that Lin Daiyu could marry Jia Baoyu-in Jia's mother's heart, Jia Baoyu must have great fortune and be worthy of anyone.Therefore, Mother Jia was not worried at all that Jia Zi and Lin Hai would not agree to the marriage.

Originally, Mother Jia planned to wait until the two children were older before mentioning the marriage to Jia Zi and Lin Hai.However, on her birthday, Mother Jia suddenly discovered that many people were interested in the Lin family's children, and seemed to have plans to marry the Lin family—after all, in the eyes of many aristocratic families, the Lin family can be said to be the most perfect marriage partner .

Naturally, Mother Jia didn't want such a powerful marriage partner like the Lin family to fall on someone else's head, so she quickly took advantage of the opportunity of illness to find Jiazi to Rongguo Mansion, and proposed to Jiazi the marriage of two jade children. thing.

Originally, Mother Jia thought that Jiazi would definitely agree to the marriage: after all, it is hard to find a boy as good as Jia Baoyu in Beijing.However, Jia's mother never expected that Jia Zi not only refused to agree to the marriage of the two Yu'er and Shi Xiangyun and Lin Hui she proposed, but even slandered the relationship between Second Sister You and Jia Zheng.

Fortunately, it was finally found out that the person who had an affair with Second Sister You was not Jia Zheng or Jia Baoyu, but Xue Pan, that careless brat.In fact, when she first found out about Second Sister You and Xue Pan, Mother Jia wanted to coax these two things that ruined the reputation of Rongguo Mansion out of Rongguo Mansion.However, in the end, under Aunt Xue's weeping pleas and Jia Baoyu's crying and tearful offensive, Second Sister You and Xue Pan finally settled down in Rongguo Mansion.However, she can no longer appear in front of Jiamu.

Mother Jia originally planned to talk to Jiazi about the marriages of several children after the matter of Second Sister You was resolved: how many children is she the grandmother of, and how many children can she harm?Moreover, she believed that over time, Jia Zi would definitely see Jia Baoyu's goodness, and then agree to Jia Baoyu's and Lin Daiyu's marriage—anyway, the children are still young, and the marriage is not in a hurry.

However, Jia's mother never expected that just as Second Sister You moved into Xue Pan's yard crying and aggrieved, she heard the rumors of a happy marriage from Hu Po.

Upon hearing such rumors, Mother Jia smashed the exquisite porcelain set in her room: Don't think she doesn't know who wrote it?Except for Mrs. Wang, who thought she was so powerful that even she dared to look down on her, who else could do such a stupid and self-righteous thing?

It's not that Jia's mother doesn't know that Mrs. Wang prefers her niece Xue Baochai to be Jia Baoyu's daughter-in-law than Lin Daiyu, who has a strong family background.However, Mrs. Wang didn't want to think about how Xue Baochai could compare with Lin Daiyu: Lin Daiyu was the daughter of Jiazi and Lin Hai, and both Jiazi and Lin Hai were promising upstarts in the imperial court. With their support In the future, Jia Baoyu's official career will definitely be smooth sailing; but Xue Baochai is just from a businessman, and there is such an uneasy brother in the family, it would be good not to drag Jia Baoyu, let alone help him.Besides, although Xue's family was born in a merchant family, Xue Baochai's dowry may be expensive in the future; With Lin Hai's only daughter, how could the dowry not be generous?

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, Xue Baochai cannot be compared with Lin Daiyu.However, Mrs. Wang is so short-sighted that she can't see the benefits of Lin Daiyu. She can only see the immediate benefits of Xue Baochai. How can she look like a woman from a big family?Alas, why did she agree to let Zheng'er marry such a stupid woman? Mother Jia became more and more dissatisfied with Mrs. Wang.

Even though Jia's mother was very angry at Mrs. Wang's self-assessment and disregarding Jia Baoyu's future, but Mrs. Wang was very satisfied with the statement of this golden and jade marriage.Although she didn't know who spread the rumor, it helped her after all: Jinyu Liangyuan, what a beautiful word--that sentence is so true, if you have jade, you have to ask for it. If there is gold to match, Jia Baoyu should match Xue Baochai.

"It seems," Jia Min poured a cup of tea for Jia Zi with a smile, and then nodded Jia Zi's forehead: "Are you satisfied with the current effect?" I couldn't control the smile on my face: It really is Jia Zi, who is extraordinary as soon as he makes a move: Who in the whole capital doesn't know that Jia Baoyu was born with the title of jade. Doesn't this golden fate mean that Jia Baoyu has a good match?

"What effect?" Jiazi pretended to be confused: "Why don't I know what you're talking about?" Jiazi didn't expect that the rumors of this golden and jade marriage would spread so fast and so widely. Inside, all the aristocratic families in the capital and the nobles of the imperial court knew about it.They even dug out the identity of that "gold", and found out that the daughter of the Xue family in Jinling had a golden lock that she carried with her since she was a child.Of course, Jiazi was quite satisfied with this effect: Hmph, let Xue Baochai miss Lin Hui again, and don't look at his big face, dare to miss Lin Hui?

Jia Min laughed and pushed Jia Zi: "Stop coming, I don't know who you are yet? Say, did you let go of the rumors about the marriage?" Jia Min naturally knew Jia Zi, so , when she knew that Jia's mother dared to hit Jiazi's child, she knew that Jiazi would find a way to fight back.Moreover, no matter from her relationship with Jiazi or to protect her own child, Jia Min chose to stand by and wait to see Jiazi's counterattack.Sure enough, Jia Zi's counterattack really made Jia Min very satisfied.

Jia Zi blinked, and suddenly took Jia Min's hand, with a serious look: "Hey, Xiao Min, you have to know, in fact, I am really a good person."

Jia Min laughed and slapped Jia Zi who was obviously joking, raised his head slightly, and said arrogantly: "Say it or not, how did you come up with the idea of ​​a good marriage?"

"You should know," Jia Zi sipped his tea with a smile, but didn't tease Jia Min again: "Then Xue Baochai has a golden lock on her body." No Jia Min: She and Jia Min grew up together, and they really know each other too well.If Jia Min can't guess that she did this, then there is a problem.Therefore, Jia Zi didn't think about hiding anything from Jia Min, and simply admitted that the rumors of a golden and jade marriage were directed at Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai.

Jia Min nodded: "I heard Xun'er mention this matter. It is said that it was given by an eminent monk, and there is something on it that says 'never leave, never give up, and stay forever'." Mentioning this matter, Jia Min gritted his teeth Meaning: She never thought that Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai would be so shameless, in broad daylight...

In fact, Wei Ruoxun told her and Wei Cheng about this incident as a novelty.

It was on the day of Jia Mu's birthday, after Lin Daiyu, Wei Ruoxun, Jia Yingchun and others left Rongqing Hall together, they were directly dragged to Xue Baochai's place by Jia Tanchun and Shi Xiangyun who met halfway: it is said that Xue Baochai's body is a little uncomfortable. It's comfortable, and I'm still lying on the bed now!

However, what no one expected was that as soon as they opened the door of the inner room, they saw such a scene: Xue Baochai, who was said to be unwell, was sitting on the bed with a smile on her face, with her skirts slightly open, and she was supposed to be in Jia Baoyu, who was next to Jia Mu, was close to Xue Baochai, poking his head and looking in through the open skirt.

Seeing such a scene, Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun and other older girls felt a little blush: This Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai are too bold, how can they not even keep a gatekeeper?The younger ones, Wei Ruoxun and Jia Lian's daughter, stretched their necks curiously and looked in the direction of Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai, as if they wanted to know what they were doing.

Sensing Wei Ruoxun's actions, Lin Daiyu quickly covered Wei Ruoxun's eyes to prevent her from seeing anything she shouldn't see.At the same time, she gave Jia Xichun, who was looking at Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai mockingly, a look, signaling her to close her eyes quickly.Jia Xichun curled his lips, turned his head directly, hugged Xiangling who was behind Lin Daiyu, stuck out his tongue again, and muttered two words "so fierce" like a joke.Jia Yingchun on the side also hurriedly imitated Lin Daiyu's appearance, covering the eyes of Jia Lian's daughter and eldest sister who had been following her all the time. At the same time, her face was completely red. She never thought that she would see this scene.

"Sister Bao," Shi Xiangyun, who came in one step later, didn't see the scene inside the room, but saw Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun and other guests crowded at the door, neither going in nor coming out, and quickly said with a smile: " We're here to see you, why don't you hurry up to greet us?"

Hearing the voice from the door, Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu hurriedly separated.Jia Baoyu naturally called "Sister Lin" with surprise on his face, while Xue Baochai calmly adjusted his clothes after being stunned for a moment, and took out a gold lock, handed it to Lin Daiyu, and explained to everyone with a smile that Jia just now Baoyu just wanted to see the golden lock given by the eminent monk that he had always carried with him.

"Gift from the eminent monk?" Jiazi raised the corners of his mouth mockingly, and said coldly: "Which eminent monk have you ever seen, let a girl hide something he gave in her chest? It's not disgusting. What's more, just watching Jinsuo, she won't take it off and show it to Jia Baoyu, but let him lie on her chest to see it?"

"I'm afraid it was premeditated." Jia Min curled her lips with a look of disdain: "I went to Beijing under the banner of Xiaoxuan, but I made a golden lock that matched Jia Baoyu's jade and kept it with me. This Xue family is really capable! No, it’s not just that, she’s also thinking about Hui’er... From this point of view, Jia Baoyu is just his third-hand preparation.” Whenever Jia Min thinks of this, Jia Min will I feel very angry: When is it Xue Baochai's turn to pick and choose? She is just a merchant, and she really thinks she is a noble lady?Putting on a big sister face all day long, teaching this and that, is she worthy?

Hearing Jia Min mentioning that Xue Baochai fell in love with Lin Hui, Jia Zi pursed his lips, and just when he was about to say "Is she worthy?", he suddenly found that Jia Min's face turned red: "What's wrong with you, what's wrong with your face?" So red?" Jia Zi said, and raised his hand to feel the temperature of Jia Min's forehead.

"I'm fine." Jia Min dodged subconsciously, and then put her hands on her cheeks, feeling her cheeks were a little hot, and then whispered: "Don't worry, I'm really fine." .”

Jia Zi looked at Jia Min with a puzzled look on his face: "What's the matter with you? Is there anything else you can't tell me? Do you want me to call a doctor?" Jia Zi stood up as he spoke, as if he was going out to find a doctor. frame.

"Oh, sit down," Jia Min quickly stretched out and grabbed Jia Zi, and said with a smile, "I'm really fine." I will really go to the doctor to come over and treat myself.However, thinking of what Wei Ruoxun asked herself innocently that day, Jia Min was really at a loss for words.

Although Jia Zi stopped in his tracks, he still looked suspiciously at Jia Min.Obviously, if Jia Min didn't tell her the truth, she would definitely go to a doctor to see her.

"Sit down, I'll tell you." Jia Min bit his lip and pulled Jia Zi to his side, then leaned into Jia Zi's ear, and said softly: "You know that day is the day of mother's birthday, Xun After seeing what happened to Baoyu and Xue Baochai, did you ask me and Wei Cheng anything?" Jia Min dragged Wei Cheng into the water without thinking, so that when she said it later, it would not be so embarrassing.

Jia Zi shook his head subconsciously, and looked at Jia Min curiously: "What?"

"She asked," Jia Min covered her mouth with one hand, as if this would allow fewer people to hear her and Jia Zi's words, thus reducing her embarrassment: "Is that Jia Baoyu?" Still breastfeeding, otherwise why would you lie on Xue Baochai's chest?"

"Haha..." Jia Zi couldn't help bursting out laughing: She never thought that the question that embarrassed Jia Min was this; of course, Jia Zi still laughed and praised Wei Ruoxun: " Good question, the little girl has a future."

The insolent laughter made Jia Min's face even redder, and he couldn't help reaching out to push Jia Zi, stomping his feet: "You are still laughing, you are still laughing. This is all to blame for Jia Tanchun and Shi Xiangyun. Where are you going to bring a few children?" No, I have to take it to Xue Baochai's little hoof; no, I have to blame Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai's shameless little brat for not even closing the door..."

"Hey," Jia Zi smiled and restrained Jia Min from pushing his hand, and blinked mischievously, "You haven't said it yet, how did you answer Xun'er?" No mistake, Jia Zi is even more curious about Jia Min's answer: How will Jia Min and Wei Cheng answer this question that makes adults blush?

"I..." Seeing Jia Zi's teasing look, Jia Min couldn't help stomping his feet fiercely, and said coquettishly, "I should have asked her to ask you at that time." As a result, her face turned even redder.

As soon as Wei Cheng came over, he saw Jia Zi holding Jia Min's hand, and Jia Min's face was flushed, and he couldn't help laughing and said: "Hey, let me tell you, you two... Azi, Min'er is me now. wife."

"Yo," Jia Zi let go of Jia Min's hand, and looked at Wei Cheng with a smile: "Why, are you jealous?"

Wei Cheng took a look at Jia Zi, didn't speak, but walked directly to Jia Min's side, naturally tested Jia Min's forehead, and asked softly: "It's not hot either. Min'er, do you have anything else?" Is the place uncomfortable?"

"What are you doing?" Jia Min lifted Wei Cheng's hand and said with a smile, "I'm fine, I'm just chatting with Xiao Zi."

"Yes," Jia Zi nodded, with a smirk on his face, "Xiao Min and I just chatted about Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai..."

As soon as Jia Zi's words came out, even Wei Cheng's face turned slightly red: Naturally, he also thought of the embarrassing question that Wei Ruoxun asked before.

"...a golden and jade match." There was a slight pause, until Wei Cheng's face was also red, and Jia Zi finished the next sentence with a smile: "Hey, you two, why are you blushing?"

"Jiazi!" If you don't understand Jiazi's deliberate teasing at this time, Jia Min really has known Jiazi for more than 30 years.Therefore, as soon as Jia Zi's words fell, Jia Min reacted and rushed towards Jia Zi with his fists waving, and shouted, "I'll fight you."

Jia Zi hurriedly bypassed Wei Cheng and jumped out of the door.

"You, you come back to me," Jia Min's movements were naturally not as fast as Jia Zi's, and he couldn't help stomping his feet and said, "Don't run away if you have the ability, come back to me!"

Jia Zi poked his head in from outside the door, blinked at Jia Min ambiguously, and said with a smile, "Why, don't you want to part with me? Then do you want to follow me to eat delicious food and drink spicy food?"

"Ah Zi," Wei Cheng stopped Jia Min and looked at Jia Zi with a smirk, "I heard that Chen Ruiwen's little cousin is coming back soon..." Wei Cheng naturally knew that Chen Ruiwen's little cousin But he is very obsessed with Jiazi, and even keeps saying that he will not marry if he is not Jiazi.Back then, when Jiazi got married, the little girl almost ran to make trouble!

Jia Zi was stunned for a moment: "What does it matter to me if she comes back?" Jia Zi said, and gave Wei Cheng a look like "If you dare to do something wrong to Jia Min, I will never end with you".

Wei Cheng was a little puzzled by Jia Zi's sudden threatening eyes, but Wei Cheng seemed to hear the heartbroken voice of that little girl back then.Jia Min inadvertently thought of those little girls who followed Jia Zi back home, and a bright smile appeared on his face: "Little Zi, let's invite Chen Ruiwen's little cousin to have a meal together. After all, everyone They're all friends."

Jia Min's sudden enthusiasm made Jia Zi slightly puzzled, but she quickly laughed: "Okay, if you want, I will naturally accompany you. I'm leaving, if you have time, Think carefully about how to answer Xun'er's question!" Jia Zi's voice was very soft for the last few words, and it was not unexpected to see Jia Min's face that had finally returned to normal suddenly burst into red. .

The rumors of a happy marriage became more and more intense, and Jia Zi was also very satisfied with the effect of the rumors: now the rumors have tied Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai tightly together, presumably Jia's mother has no face to pester herself.It's just that Jiazi never expected that the marriage that was once a sure thing would turn out to be a side issue again.

"Mother," Lin Daiyu followed behind Jiazi with her little hands behind her back, and said in a condescending manner, "Do you know the rumors about a happy marriage?"

Jiazi raised his eyebrows and nodded lightly: Of course she knew, she was the one who let out these four words.

"Then..." Lin Daiyu shook her head and said with a smile, "Do you know who Jin refers to?"

"You're still out of control," Jia Zi smiled and scratched Lin Daiyu's nose, and said softly, "Who else is there besides Xue Baochai, who lives in Rongguo Mansion and is with Jia Baoyu's childhood sweetheart and childhood sweetheart?"

Lin Daiyu smiled proudly: "But, Jia Baoyu's childhood sweetheart and childhood sweetheart are not the only one?"

"You mean Shi Xiangyun?"

"Yeah." Lin Daiyu nodded heavily, and said mockingly: "She also has gold."

Jia Zi was stunned for a moment, and quickly pulled Lin Daiyu to his side, curiously said: "Shi Xiangyun also has money? Tell me quickly, what is going on?"

In fact, Jia Zi knew very well that Shi Xiangyun was the one who was most hurt when the rumors of a happy marriage came out: the story that she and Jia Baoyu ate, lived, and slept together had already spread throughout the capital, and Shi Xiangyun's reputation had already been spread. Almost ruined.Therefore, apart from marrying Jia Baoyu, Shi Xiangyun has no other way out.

However, no one thought that Jia Baoyu's good match was not Shi Xiangyun.Therefore, once such rumors come out, no matter how good Shi Xiangyun's relationship with Xue Baochai is, it is impossible for him to be free from grievances.

Of course, Jia Zi would not care about Shi Xiangyun at all.It's just that she never thought that Shi Xiangyun would also want to get involved in the golden marriage.

"I also heard from sister Xi'er." Lin Daiyu sat down beside Jia Zi, and said with a smile: "Isn't there a lot of rumors outside that there is a good match for gold and jade? They all say that The one with gold refers to Miss Xue. After all, everyone knows that she has a gold lock. However, two days ago, Shi Xiangyun suddenly said that she also has gold, a piece of gold that she brought up since she was a child. Kirin..."

Hearing Lin Daiyu mentioning Jia Xichun, Jiazi couldn't help but want to laugh: she never imagined that the little girl who was a bit cold when she first met had a heart of gossip.It's just that, no matter what, it's much better than the cold, disillusioned look at the beginning: a little girl, you have to talk, laugh, and play around.

"Mother," Lin Daiyu shook Jiazi's arm, and asked with a bit of disdain, "tell me, why are people robbing all kinds of people?"

To be honest, Lin Daiyu can't see what is good about Jia Baoyu: appearance, knowledge, personality, body, taste... Jia Baoyu is not as good as her brother Lin Hui in everything, why didn't Lin Hui have so many people? Come to grab it?

"Little girl," Jia Zi pinched Lin Daiyu's nose with a smile, "Smelly dog..." Just as he opened his mouth, Jia Zi paused: Forget it, some things still cannot be said in front of Lin Daiyu.

"Mother," Lin Yan, who was covered in sweat, rushed in and threw himself on Jiazi's lap, "Mother, please don't learn arithmetic, don't learn, you don't understand..."

Seeing Lin Yan's shameless appearance, Lin Daiyu rubbed Lin Yan's dirty little face amusedly: "Did you come here after playing?"

Lin Yan scratched his head, trying to change the subject: "Sister, arithmetic is really difficult..."

"Let's go," Lin Daiyu smiled and took Lin Yan's hand: "I'll show you."

"Ah?" Lin Yan followed Lin Daiyu to the study with a mournful face.He couldn't figure it out, he ran out of the study with great difficulty, why would he run back and throw himself into the trap now?

As the days passed, the talk of a golden and jade marriage not only did not fade away, but intensified instead.Of course, everyone only knew about Jin Suo, but not about Jin Qilin—it seemed that Shi Nai's wife had made a move anyway.However, Jiazi knew very well that there were some things that Shi Nai's wife couldn't stop if she wanted to.

However, the matter of the golden jade marriage has not yet come to a certain conclusion, and the day of Jia Yuanchun's visit to relatives has already been set.

The author has something to say: the story of the golden and jade marriage was spread by Azi: it can be regarded as fulfilling the wishes of Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue and others.

small theater:

Xue Baochai: Brother Lin, it was Jia Baoyu who pestered me to see Jinsuo, I am innocent

Shi Xiangyun: She has a golden lock and I have a unicorn, both of which are gold. It is not certain whose head the golden and jade marriage will fall on.

Jia Baoyu: Actually, I want both Sister Bao and Sister Yun

Wei Ruoxun: So, what were Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai doing at that time?
