"Sister, do you have jade?"

Jia Baoyu asked a soul-searching question.

Lin Chengyu: “???”

That little bastard is already so old, but he still asks every little girl he sees if she has jade. Who is he looking down on? Does his Lin family look so poor that they don’t even have a piece of jade?

Xue Baochai's eyebrows jumped, feeling extremely helpless.

Thinking back to when she first came, Jia Baoyu also asked the same question.

Sister, do you have jade?

Who doesn’t have jade? Her shop has all kinds of precious jade.

But her family came to Beijing at that time, firstly because she wanted to participate in the imperial selection, and secondly because her brother had killed someone. With the intention of currying favor with the Jia family, she said, "I don't have jade like this."

Unexpectedly, Jia Baoyu went crazy and suddenly threw the jade to the ground, making her family embarrassed.

Now this sentence came again, she wanted to see how the girl from the Lin family would answer.

Lin Daiyu lowered her eyes. In front of her was the magical jade that Jia Baoyu had taken off his necklace. It was said to be brought from his mother's womb. She was about to speak, but Lin Chengyu asked innocently, "Is this the only piece of jade that cousin Baoyu has?"

Jia Baoyu was stunned, "Of course not."

Lin Chengyu said, "I thought my cousin Baoyu only had one piece of jade, so it was so rare. For a family like us, we should not regard these ordinary things as so important. Don't let others look down on us."

Jia Baoyu didn't know how to react for a moment.

Everyone said that his jade was precious jade, spiritual jade, and that he was different from others.

But now he has a cousin who is like a fairy boy, saying that these are all ordinary things. He wants to refute, but is blocked by the pair of clear eyes in front of him.

Mrs. Wang felt uncomfortable, but she still smiled and said, "Chengyu, you are just a little girl, you don't know that your cousin Baoyu was born with this jade, it is a gift from heaven."

Jia Baoyu regained his confidence and asked again: "Cousin, do you really not have it?"

Lin Chengyu: “…”

Jia Min: “…” Her nephew might have some mental problems.

Lin Daiyu: "...Of course there is no one with such a background"

Jia Baoyu became more confident. He didn't even have a fairy sister like this. He turned his head to look at Lin Chengyu and asked, "Does my cousin have one?"

Lin Chengyu was speechless. He wanted to beat this stone egg to death. Is that okay?

But it's obviously not possible.

He took off the jade pendant from his waist and said, "I have this."

When Grandmother Jia lowered her eyes, her heart was filled with turmoil.

This is... this is an object that came out of the palace.

Mrs. Wang smiled, her words full of self-satisfaction, "Your jade pendant is just an ordinary thing, how can it be compared with your cousin's spiritual jade."

Grandmother Jia: "Shut up!"

She was about to rebuke this stupid daughter-in-law who didn't know the value of things, but Jia Baoyu suddenly got angry and threw the jade in his hand to the ground, "I don't have any sisters at home, and now two brothers and sisters who are like gods have come, and I don't have any sisters either. I don't want any of them."

Suddenly the room was in chaos. Some were looking for jade, some were trying to comfort the person, and it took a lot of effort to calm the person down.

Jia Min and his companions witnessed a grand drama with their own eyes, which was extremely lively.

Lin Chengyu sighed, not knowing how to react to this. Could it be that Jia Baoyu was blessed by the original novel? He was really a lunatic.

He was about to tie the jade pendant back around his waist when Grandmother Jia stopped him and said, "Let Grandmother see it."

Grandmother Jia carefully examined the jade pendant, which was of excellent quality. It was indeed something from the palace. Could it be a reward from the palace? She turned the jade pendant over and carefully read the small words on the back.

wrong!

This word is actually...

mysterious!

Grandmother Jia was horrified and her face looked a little strange. She wanted to ask something, but because there were so many people around, she didn't dare to ask it, so she had to put it aside for the time being.

Jia Min was a little confused and asked, "Mother, is there something wrong with this jade?"

As soon as these words came out, Jia's mother knew that her daughter was also unaware of this. "It's nothing, but I see that this piece of jade is of very good quality and is very rare nowadays. You must wear it well and don't damage it."

After saying that, she put the jade back on herself.

Mrs. Wang looked kind and gentle, and said, "For a family like ours, we have all kinds of jade. We want..."

"Shut up!" Grandmother Jia scolded sternly, "You ignorant woman! Stop talking nonsense!"

Mrs. Wang's dignified and loving expression could no longer be suppressed. She did not expect that Lady Jia would scold her like this in front of so many juniors, especially Jia Min, whom she hated the most.

Jia Baoyu stood there at a loss, looking at this and that, not knowing what to do.

Aunt Xue had been silent the whole time, but at this moment she could not help but smooth things over for Lady Wang. After a few flattering words, the atmosphere in the room eased a little.

Let's put this matter aside for now. Grandmother Jia talked to Jia Min for a while, then asked Wang Xifeng, "Is your aunt's yard ready?"

"Don't worry, Grandfather. Everything has been cleaned up." Wang Xifeng glanced at the jade pendant in Lin Chengyu's hand and replied respectfully but humorously, "Everything has been done as you ordered. Earlier, someone had the yard cleaned up, inside and out, and renovated it. I guarantee that my aunt and cousins ​​will live comfortably."

Grandmother Jia nodded with satisfaction, "I know you are a man who can handle everything properly."

The three members of the Xue family lived in Lixiangyuan, where Duke Rong lived in his later years. The courtyard was a bit remote, but it was easy to come and go. Xue Pan could go in and out through the small door on the street.

The Jia family had many girls, so it would be unreasonable to allow a man from outside to come in and out of the house freely all day. Therefore, when Mrs. Wang suggested that her sister and her family live in Lixiangyuan, Grandmother Jia only thought about it for a moment and agreed.

But Jia Min and the other two were different. Wang Xifeng took several days to consider before choosing one. She wanted her to be close to Lady Jia and have a good location.

Grandmother Jia was in a good mood today, so she asked the younger generations to stay here for dinner and asked Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang to go back.

For a moment, it was very comfortable to talk and laugh.

Lin Chengyu was a little absent-minded. He was sitting there with his mind wandering.

He didn't know how Xuan Zheng was doing now, and whether the troubles at home were over. Although they were all in Beijing, he had no idea where Xuan Zheng was.

Lin Chengyu was a little angry at the heartless bastard. He had clearly sent people to wait at the shore today, but they just took a look and left. It was really too much.

Lin Chengyu didn't want to admit that he was indeed a little "arrogant because of his favor".

What kind of thing is it to be arrogant because of being spoiled? It simply does not exist in a strong man like him.

Jia Min stayed there like this. From what Lin Chengyu heard her talking to Lady Jia, she thought she would probably stay there for a year or so.

He couldn't help but feel sorry for his old father who had to take care of the house alone.
