The Hulk of the Red Chamber

The rumors went on for a long time, and there was no more prominent topic for a while, which could cover up the previous rumors. Because the people in the capital had seen too many dignitaries, many of them went back to their ancestors for several generations, and they were also officials. It's just that they have fallen, and they don't have much fear of Rongguo Mansion, especially people have a dark psychology. The scandals of people with higher status and fame than themselves are more likely to arouse bad interest from the public. According to my own conjecture, add a layer or even several layers of worse imagination, and then spread it out as if I saw it with my own eyes, and some people are malicious behind the scenes, so even if the Jia family and the Xue family have put in a lot of effort, the rumors There is no sign of disappearing at all, but intensified.

Even if the Jia family has all sorts of messy things behind their backs, they are really a family that values ​​face very much. After such a scandal, they deliberately want to expel the Xue family and tell others that it is the fault of the Xue family. It has nothing to do with my family.However, Wang Xue was willing to go all out. She used to be a lowly girl, flattering her sister every day, and satisfying her wishes for this and that from time to time. In the end, she had to kill donkeys, cross rivers and bridges, what the hell? They are all pushing themselves on the head.Xue Wang was born in the royal family, even if she was a concubine before, but she is not a cowardly and incompetent person, otherwise, why is she the only one who gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the other aunts have a house, and they can't even give birth to an egg, After the death of the previous Patriarch of the Xue family, Xue Wang sold all those aunts and concubines. From this, it can be seen that Xue Wang is really not a kind person. She doesn't even care about face so much when it comes to benefits. of.

Therefore, even if Shi Taijun expressly hinted there, the Xue family remained steadfast, and Xue Wang's family is very calm now, and she didn't come over to say hello or anything, usually Shi Taijun called her to come over and talk, hinting about the girl's reputation and the like When things were going on, Mrs. Xue pretended not to hear, and just pinched the handkerchief calmly, counting the warp and weft threads, and began to mutter, what kind of big business is she doing now, and the capital cannot be turned over for a while. , Remember how many IOUs there are at home... In a word, as long as Shi Taijun dares to say anything about the Xue family, Xue Wang will directly hint, let us go, pay the money first and then talk about it!

Mrs. Xue finally understood that with a shameless family like the Jia family, if you want to beat them, you have to be even more shameless than them.Worried that the Jia family would be ruined, Wang Xue directly destroyed the IOU, and simply separated the IOU and hid it on herself and her daughter Xue Baochai.The IOUs of several 10 taels are nothing more than a few thin sheets of paper. It is very easy to hide them. Even if it is too troublesome to sew them into clothes, they can still be hidden in purse jewelry.

Xue Baochai has an extremely tenacious temperament. If such a person did not have a good family background and a more orthodox and perfect boudoir education, it is not impossible for such a person to rise to the top.Now her reputation has been ruined by malicious people. In order to isolate her, Shi Taijun forbids the girls in his family to associate with her.After the rumors came out, the sister-in-law of Li Wan's family, who originally lived in the garden, immediately moved away with her two daughters overnight. If Li Yue hadn't been released when she ran over to seek refuge, they would not have found Li Wan. With the festival-abiding aunt, even if it costs more money, it is safer to find a quiet place to live.

As for Xing Xiuyan, she had nowhere to go, but Mrs. Xing was so happy that the second room was slapped in the face, she said a few weird words, and finally took Xing Xiuyan to live in her yard, and used this as an excuse to send Jia Amnesty's couple A concubine who was no longer favored was sold to Fa.

Xue Baochai was isolated, and she wasn't in a hurry. She needed to wait until the limelight passed before showing up. She left it to Xue Wang to deal with the outside affairs. She knew Xue Pan's personality well. He insisted on keeping Xue Pan at home and not letting him go out to make trouble.In this sense, Xue Baochai is indeed the backbone of the Xue family.What Xue Pan loves the most in his life is his own sister. At the beginning, because of him, Xue Baochai's small selection matter became dirty. Over the years, he is not free from guilt. Therefore, Xue Baochai made up a lot of reasons, saying that he was worried. I was alone at home, and it was difficult to deal with those who came to ridicule and ridicule me. I asked my brother to protect Yunyun. Xue Pan's brain became hot, so he naturally stayed there, and glared at everyone who came over every day. There is no one here.Xue Pan stayed at home and didn't go out, but he escaped a catastrophe. The people who wanted to seduce Xue Pan to do bad things over there had to stop for a while, adding fire to the messy rumors from time to time, while waiting for Xue Pan Unable to bear it any longer, I stuck my head out so that I could make further calculations.

The Jia family couldn't pay back the money, so naturally they had to tolerate the Xue family's continued stay, and had to tolerate others mentioning the Xue family, which would inevitably bring the Jia family's behavior.After all, most of the Grand View Gardens were built with the Xue family's money, and it would be unreasonable to drive out the creditors.All in all, although the Xue family produced a woman who did not know shame, the absurdity and shamelessness of the Jia family man was generally recognized by the people in the capital. The fact that he was caught by his wife was also revealed. Although people said that Wang Xifeng was a tigress, Jia Lian was naturally not a good thing.Jia Baoyu is even more so, at such a young age, there is a person who has a room by his side, molesting the maid next to his mother, and eating the rouge from the maid's mouth. Sure enough, he is a drunkard.Such a family, who would dare to marry their family, therefore, there is no need for Shi Taijun to say that it is not appropriate to marry early, Jia Baoyu's marriage, like Xue Baochai's, is suspended.

The Jia family and the Xue family now maintain such a relationship of mutual encumbrance and scruples. Xue Baochai's reputation is gone, and it is because of Jia Baoyu. If Xue Baochai does not marry Jia Baoyu, no matter who he marries in the future, there will be The problem is, maybe when the time comes, people will not be happy, and they will divorce Xue Baochai on the grounds of not obeying women's morals.But Jia Baoyu is different. Jia Baoyu has a natural soft heart, which is why he can please girls.These days, most men think of women as accessories, especially for maids and concubines, which are no different from commodities, but Jia Baoyu is different, he is always gentle and considerate to girls, He was very sympathetic to their difficulties, so even with two people like the second sister You and the third sister, he was extremely gentle towards them and felt extremely sorry for their deaths.

Therefore, even though Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang strictly ordered him not to go to see Xue Baochai again because of the turmoil outside, he still went secretly.Xue Baochai, who has always been gentle and generous, rarely showed weakness in front of him, which made Jia Baoyu feel pity and guilt towards Xue Baochai, as well as an attitude of common hatred and hatred.Although he lacks courage and lacks much sense of responsibility, his compassion for beauty and beauty is second to none. As long as he looks good, he doesn't care about his character or not.

This is Jia Baoyu's shortcoming, but for Xue Baochai, it is her biggest way of life. Jia Baoyu feels guilty towards her. If the two get married smoothly, the previous things can be beautified as the interaction between unmarried couples. Some intimacy between lovers is inevitable.As for the dislike of the elders above her, that's not a big problem.How old is Shi Taijun, and how many more years can he live?As for Mrs. Wang, Xue Baochai knew that the biggest problem with Mrs. Wang was greed. Therefore, she felt that she had a way to deal with her aunt. Therefore, although she was no longer with Jia Baoyu often, she still did not let go of her relationship with Jia Baoyu. The connection, on the contrary, is even closer.In front of Jia's family, she blindly pretended to be pitiful and magnanimous. In the end, many people felt that Xue Baochai had become a pure victim and spontaneously began to restore her image.

The Jia family finally found a good opportunity to cover up the previous scandal. Jia Jing's birthday is coming!Since Jia Jing entered the Qingxu Temple, except for ancestor worship and other things, he has been staying in the Qingxu Temple for a long time and never went home.

Two years ago, when Jia Jing was fifty, he was having a big birthday, and there were [-] scriptures engraved at home, which were distributed everywhere. Last time, Jia Jing still refused to go home. What's more, it's just a small birthday this time, even though Jia Zhen was entrusted by Shi Taijun, and went to Qingxu Temple to invite her again and again, but Jia Jing couldn't care so much, she claimed to be a half-immortal body at the moment, and she was on the verge of becoming an immortal At a critical moment, how could he be contaminated with the mundane world, be infected with the aura of the world, and affect Qingxiu?Therefore, even if Jia Zhen and Jia Rong took turns to fight, they failed to shake Jia Jing's heart of Taoism at all. The father and son didn't even see Jia Jing's face, so they were dismissed by two Taoist boys. Had to go back dejectedly.

Shi Taijun has nothing to do with Jia Jing. Although she is an elder, Jia Jing doesn't buy her very much. After all, Jia Jing and the others have always served as the head of the clan. Listen, Shi Taijun is just a girl. Jia Jing used to be a scholar. He naturally has his own understanding of filial piety. He is not willing to be like Jia Amnesty. Even if he is wronged to the extreme, he has to be obedient.That kind of filial piety, the whole family will be laughed at.The reason why he didn't bother to see Jia Zhen was because he knew that his son was not filial. Instead of getting upset when he saw him, he might as well concentrate on his cultivation. When he became a fairy, nothing had to do with him.

It doesn't matter if Jia Jing doesn't go out. Since he was able to celebrate Jia Jing's birthday before without Jia Jing's presence, it is also possible now. Shi Taijun paid for it himself. First, he specially ordered a set of engraved "Tao Cang" with a large size. The car was sent to Qingxu Temple. The Ningguo Mansion was the main force, and the Rongguo Mansion was the assisted one. The two families beat and beat, invited a group of relatives and friends, and held Jia Jing's birthday banquet in a lively manner.
