Sister Xue of the Red Chamber

Jiang Yuhan angrily presented Qian Xiang Luo Xue Baochai with red musk musk strings in a cage

Since Jia Quan's full moon, Jia Zheng has been very depressed for half a month.

He was not fair for himself, and he thought about asking his son to overwhelm the big house. He came and went again and again, and he became determined to discipline Baoyu.

As for Jia Huan, firstly he was a concubine, and secondly he was also hardworking, but he just let him go after a few pointers in his spare time.

Baoyu was forced hard, and it was hard to resist, so he had to go to Jiamu's side from time to time.

Alas, Aiyo screamed for a while, and Jia's mother hugged her and screamed her heart, and then angrily scolded Jia Zheng: "It's not like you didn't know that Baoyu was seriously ill before, and it seems that he is about to die. It's easy to slow down, and you are gone again." Pressing him to study every day, there is no day and night, you are trying to force him to death! Why don't you make me, an old woman, angry to death first, that's called clean!"

Turning around and persuading Baoyu, he said, "Your father was doing it for your own good. Grandma has already told him that if you are tired from studying in the future, you don't have to worry about him. Just go and rest. If you let grandma know that you are lazy, then I don't agree either!"

From then on, on the day when Jia Zheng rested and took a bath, Baoyu read books for half a day and rested for half a day.If Jia Zheng was on duty, it would be like releasing a caged bird, or looking for sisters and sisters to play with in the garden, or sneaking out of the house with Baoming, with friends who are "chic and unrestrained" drinking poetry.

Jia Zheng was on duty that day, and Baoyu was having fun in Jia Mu's arms.

Baoming came in: "Old lady, Master Feng Ziying asked Second Master Bao to talk about learning together."

Jia Mu said happily: "But Feng Ziying, the eldest son of General Shenwu's family? After all, he is from a big family and knows our Baoyu is good. It is often heard that Feng Ziying is a young and successful man. Baoyu, you should ask him for advice. Baoming, Hurry up and change the clothes for your second master Jiabao to go out!"

Baoyu stood up: "The grandson will leave first. If Baoyu doesn't come back in time for dinner, I hope my ancestors don't worry about it."

"Good boy, grandma knows your filial piety. Don't rush if you can't make it in time. Just use it outside with Little General Feng. Go!"

Baoyu went back to the study, changed his clothes, ordered people to prepare horses, and took four young men, Baoming, Hoe Yao, Shuangrui, and Shuangshou, all the way.

Feng Ziying's family has invited many people, including Chen Yejun and Wei Ruolan.Another singer named Jiang Yuhan, who was also a famous actor in Beijing, claimed to be the king of Shuncheng to redeem himself and bring him into the mansion, but no one saw him for a long time.The other one is Yun'er, the top oiran of Jinxiangyuan, Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Wei Ruolan, and even Jia Zhen and Jia Rong from Jia's mansion are all her guests.

I won’t go into details about the rest who serve tea and food.

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, there was Chen Yejun, who was drunk, pulled Yun'er past, touched her hand and said with a smile: "Little lady, have you learned any new little tunes? Pick someone who knows the cold and the hot." Yes, sing it to Grandpa!"

Yun'er withdrew her hand, picked up the pipa and sang:

"Two enemies, generally romantic and unrestrained. Lovely and downhearted, rich and ruthless. I want to meet under the willow tree when the moon is full last night. One is cheating, the other is looking for it. If you catch it, fight. I am in There's nothing else to say."

After singing, he said with a smile: "I'm not as good as everyone present here, but I'm the first to make a fool of myself."

Baoyu bullied him, handed over a glass of wine, and said, "Since this is the case, I will issue a new order, and those who do not obey will be punished ten times in a row. If I am right, please ask Sister Yun'er to drink up the glass!"

Everyone applauded.

Baoyu said: "Now you want to say the four characters of sadness, sorrow, joy, and joy, but you have to say your daughter. You must also indicate the reason for these four characters!"

After finishing speaking, he poured another glass of wine, drank it all in one go, and said, "Daughter is sad, the palace flowers are bright red and dyed gray hair. Daughter is sad, the flowers fall into the spring and come out of the imperial ditch. Daughter is happy, I bought a branch of spring and wants to release it. Daughter Le, Chiri Jiangshan flowers and plants are fragrant."

"Second Master Bao is not embarrassing my concubine?" Yun'er said, drank the wine in her glass, and sang with her pipa in her arms, "sorrowful and white hair, sitting in the cold palace and talking about Xuanzong; sorrowful, the willow colors are uneven, and the building is red "Happy hairpin temples, dawn dew traces are as heavy as Xiatong; happy spring breeze, swallows fly to the dream of mandarin ducks."

"it is good!"

Everyone pushed Feng Ziying again.

Feng Ziying thought for a while, then said: "It's over." Filled up the wine, took a sip, and said, "Daughter is sad, the small building is blowing through the Yusheng cold. Daughter is worried, when will I return? Le Yanran... ..”

Jiang Yuhan's brain hurts when she heard this, so she excused herself and left the meeting, and went outside to find some peace.

Unexpectedly, Baoyu came out with an excuse.Jiang Yuhan had no choice but to go to the hut with him.

Standing under the eaves of the corridor enjoying the scenery, Baoyu saw him charming and gentle, and she was very nostalgic in her heart.She held his hand tightly and called him: "Go to us when you are free."

Jiang Yuhan waved his hands and said: "Where do I have any free time! Today, the king of Beijing County invited my prince to come with him. The prince was not happy, and saw that I was too busy in the mansion, so he kicked me out. Otherwise, I They don't go out."

After hearing this, Baoyu said angrily: "My lord Lao Shizi! I sincerely want to meet you, but I asked him to stop you!" After thinking for a while, he took out a fan from his sleeve, untied a jade fan, handed it to Jiang Yuhan, and said, " The little things are unbearable, a little show of today's friendship."

Jiang Yuhan refused to answer, and said coldly: "Second Master Bao, please be careful! What's more, you will not be rewarded for no merit!"

When Baoyu heard this, he became anxious, stepped forward and lifted up Jiang Yuhan's coat, stretched out his hand and untied a big red sweat scarf tied with his little coat, held it in his hand and said, "This sweat scarf looks like a good thing! Why don’t you give it to me! Although the Songhua sweat towel I’m carrying is a mortal thing, it’s still a gift after all, how can I exchange it for you?”

Jiang Yuhan took three steps back, blushing with anger, and said: "It's very unnecessary. This sweat towel is a tribute from the Queen of Qianxiang Country. In summer, it wears on the skin to produce fragrance and does not produce sweat stains. It was given to the prince by King Beijing yesterday. I just got on today. You... just keep it up!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went to look for the servants brought from Shuncheng County Prince's Mansion, and ordered them to go back and fetch a sweat towel.

Leaving Baoyu alone in place, he couldn't help being overjoyed.

When Baoyu returned to the Yihong Courtyard of the Grand View Garden, Xiren hurriedly stepped forward to help him undress, and brought some strong tea that was warming on the stove to sober him up.

Musk Moon tidied up her clothes and saw that the pendant on the fan was gone, so she hurriedly reported it to Xiren.

The attacker asked him, "Where did you go? Why did the fan pendant disappear?"

Baoyu said, "I'll lose it now."

Xiren only thought he was careless and didn't care.

When I was sleeping, I saw that Baoyu had two sweat scarves tied around his waist, one with pine flowers was begged from me, and the other was a red sweat scarf that looked like blood spots...

Xiren immediately guessed eight or nine points.Seeing him wearing two sweat towels together, he was angry and funny for a while.Yin said: "You have good trousers, give me back mine."

Baoyu Lai said: "My good sister, how can I get it back after giving it to me!"

The two laughed and laughed again before they rested.

In the morning of the second day, Baoyu asked what happened in the mansion yesterday.

Xiren replied: "Yesterday, the noble lady sent the eunuch Jia out, gave 120 taels of silver, and asked to have a three-day safe offering in Qingxuguan from the first to the third day of the junior high school, singing opera offerings, and asking Uncle Zhen to lead all the men to kneel incense Worshiping Buddha, and the Dragon Boat Festival is also rewarded."

Saying that, he ordered Musk Moon to find out what was given yesterday.There are two palace fans, a string of red musk beads, two boxes of new ink, and a pair of lake pens.

When Baoyu saw it, he was overjoyed and asked, "Is this what other people have?"

Xiren said: "The old lady has an extra white jade ruyi. The old man, the eldest wife, the wife, and the master only have one more sapphire ruyi. Yours is the same as Bao girl's. The second girl, the third girl, and the fourth girl are only less red. Musk beads. Lian’s second master, Tong Huan’er, has no palace fan or beads, and replaced them with two new books. The eldest grandma and the second grandma have two pieces of gauze and two sachets. There are no other people.”

After hearing this, Baoyu asked, "What's the reason? Why is it that Sister Bao's is the same as mine! Don't tell me it's wrong? And Sister Lin, what can she get?"

Xiren said: "I took them out yesterday, and they were all marked one by one. Why is it wrong!" Then he said, "You can forgive my mother! Last time, my mother asked Miss Lin to come and live with us. We made a fuss. Big deal! How dare you be so thankless in the future and give her something?"

Baoyu said angrily: "Sister Lin must be willing to come and live with us! Her elder brother must be holding her and not telling her to go out!"

When Baoyu came to Jiamu's side to say hello, Mrs. Wang happened to bring Aunt Wang and Baochai to say hello.

Since Baochai changed her mind to stay in Jia's mansion, Aunt Wang ordered someone to quietly break a gold lock, engraved with "never leave, never give up, my youth will last forever".On weekdays, when talking about this golden lock, the excuse is that it was given by an eminent monk. There is a proverb that says that marriage can only be made when there is jade in the future.

He also borrowed a large amount of silver to Mrs. Wang, and sent it to the palace so that Yuan Chun could take care of it.

Therefore, even though Baochai was not optimistic, the ceremony bestowed by Yuanchun this time gave Mrs. Wang enough face.

Baochai was very happy at first when he saw the gift from Yuanchun yesterday. He was the only one like Baoyu.It's just that after a while, I feel more and more boring.Xue Baoxuan has been given a marriage, not to mention that he himself has been promoted to Princess Gu Lun, but her husband's family is still the eldest son of Prince Dongping's mansion!Thinking about Jia Baoyu again, he was so happy that he was so happy that he became so disappointed!

It's just a coincidence, how can she be inferior to Baochai?How can a person who abandons his biological mother and sister go past her?

Seeing that Baochai was lost in thought alone, Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "Baoyu, take your sister Bao to Yihong Courtyard! You don't have to stay here."

Jia Mu said displeased: "Why do you always call him stubborn! You should study hard!"

It's just that Jia Baoyu has already pulled Baochai away, and said in his mouth: "That's a good relationship! Let Sister Bao teach me my homework!"

As soon as he arrived at Yihong Courtyard, before he sat down, Baoyu entangled him obsessively, and said with a smile, "Sister Bao, let me see your red musk skewers?"

Baoyu's eyes are sharp, and she has seen a string around Baochai's left wrist.Baochai's plump skin, snow-white and crisp arms lined with bright red beads, made Baoyu look straight.

The attacking people on the side laughed at him: "This is the pearl that fell in love with Miss Bao again? Didn't you have seen your own string yesterday? You are also tall, so why do you fall in love with other people's beads? You must know that there are some things. It is not yours, you have taken a fancy to it and snatched it away, but have you ever thought that this book may be the only one in other people's hands? If you snatch it away, how can they be good! Sometimes you snatch it away and then snatch it away, You don’t take it seriously when you look back, so what if you tear it apart? It’s like yesterday, you snatched someone else’s sweat towel. Take care, two sweat towels are tied together..."

Baochai laughed when she heard the words: "Two sweat towels tied together? What kind of allusion is this?"

Baoyu was thinking that the attacker was long-winded, so he hurriedly talked about it by himself.

"Prince Shuncheng..." Baochai quietly put the red musk beads into her sleeves.

Prince Shuncheng seems to have passed away the year before last, and there is no successor to Fujin, and... no heirs are born yet...
