"My darling, what's wrong with you?"
When Grandmother Jia saw Jia Baoyu crying loudly, a look of distress immediately appeared on her wrinkled old face.
Jia Baoyu took the opportunity to act coquettishly:"Grandma, my second sister and third sister don't want to play with me anymore, woo woo!"
Click!
As soon as these words came out, the whole Rongqing Hall fell silent.
Wang Xifeng, Li Wan and other girls who were always familiar with Jia Baoyu were not surprised.
But Yingchun and Tanchun felt a little uncomfortable. How could Jia Baoyu, who grew up with them since childhood, become like this? It was obvious that he wanted to practice martial arts to strengthen his body, so why did he become unwilling to play with him? Do they have to revolve around him?
"Second brother Bao is really shameless, I think he has a black heart."
Little Xichun's chubby face was puffed up, and she waved her little hands, looking fierce. Lin
Daiyu, who was standing aside, looked at the cute appearance of little Xichun, pinched her little face, and said amusingly:"Fourth sister, your brother is right, he is a spoiled child, why are you so upset, someone will take care of him later."
"Humph!"
Little Xichun folded her arms and watched Jia Baoyu's performance angrily.
"Baoyu"
"Please tell me carefully"
"Why don't the maids Yingchun and Tanchun play with you anymore?"
Grandmother Jia was confused. These sisters in the family had always played well with Baoyu, so how could they suddenly stop being close to him?
"Ancestors"
"That black-hearted Xuan Er not only became a reckless man himself, but also forced his second and third sisters to learn"
"I don’t want my second and third sisters to become like that."
Jia Baoyu was held in the arms of his grandmother, his big face pouting coquettishly"Nine-five, nine-five, seven-seven""
‘"Eh!!!"
Lin Daiyu felt a little tingling on her scalp, and a trace of disgust appeared on her cold little face.
Wang Xifeng and others had seen this many times before, and didn't think it was a big deal, but when they saw it again today, they felt uncomfortable.
Not to mention that Jia Baoyu is a boy, even if it was a 6 or 7-year-old boy, it would be a bit vulgar to act like a spoiled child, not to mention that Jia Baoyu is already thirteen years old.
Ten-year-old Jia Huan has already started to learn literature and martial arts, and he is very polite wherever he goes. Jia Lan and Jia Cong are the same. Looking at Jia Baoyu again, it is really hard to describe.
Moreover, Jia Baoyu married Xiren, which is equivalent to starting a family. How can he behave like before, without any sense of manliness at all!
"I think what Baoyu said is right"
"In families like ours, the girls in our family are all well-educated and well-mannered, and they are good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and they learn some needlework."
"If you are like those country folk, how can you be so shameless!"
Mrs. Xing, who had always been a transparent person, suddenly spoke up, attracting everyone's attention.
"Why do you suddenly want to learn martial arts?"
However, Grandmother Jia ignored her and just asked Yingchun in a gentle and auspicious voice.
Before Yingchun could reply, Jia Baoyu said again:"Grandfather, I don't know what kind of magic potion Xuan Er gave."
"It would have been fine if they had just taken Sister Lin and Sister Four away, but now they have also bewitched Sister Two, Sister Three, and Sister Bao."
"Grandfather, you can't allow him"
""Xuan-ge is young and doesn't know many things. How can a girl play with a spear or a stick?"
Mrs. Xing spoke again, using this incident to belittle Jia Xuan in both explicit and implicit ways.
Wang Xifeng and Li Wan saw this scene, and they knew that Mrs. Xing was taking revenge on Jia Xuan for making a big fuss about Jia Cong.
But Wang Xifeng was now extremely anxious. Jia Lian, her"stepmother", came from a small family, and her tactics and scheming were far inferior to Mrs. Wang's. Even Mrs. Wang was sent to prison. How dare Mrs. Xing offend Jia Xuan?
None of the women in the hall were stupid, and they could hear the hidden meaning of Mrs. Xing's words.
Little Xichun was so angry that she was about to stand up and refute, but was held down by Lin Daiyu, because Youshi stood up.
"What is the eldest lady saying?"
"My second brother is young, so it would be a bit ridiculous to say that he is ignorant."
"Could it be that the eldest lady thought that all the civil and military officials in the court and the current emperor could not see the bravery of the second brother, so she granted him a title and an official position?"
"Oh, yes, I forgot that the eldest wife's family was poor. Maybe no one was an official, so they didn't know what was going on. As the saying goes, ignorance is not blame."
"you..."
Mrs. Xing was so angry that the word"ignorant" was almost written on her face.
She never thought that Youshi, who usually had a very good temper, would be so sharp.
Mrs. Xing looked around. Li Wan, who was also from Rongguo Mansion, and even her own daughter-in-law Wang Xifeng did not speak, let alone Qin Keqing. For a moment, her face turned blue and purple.
"old lady"
"The second brother was thinking of his sisters who were weak and frail, so he learned some health-preserving methods to take care of their bodies and to improve their temperament."
"Baoyu may have misunderstood, this is not a martial art for fighting on the battlefield."
At this time, Youshi continued.
Although she was the second wife, she was the head lady of Ningguo Mansion after all, and her status was only higher than that of Mrs. Xing.
Since Jia Xuan came back, Jia Zhen no longer dared to do any small actions, and all the affairs in the backyard were handed over to Youshi. All day long, Youshi and Qin Keqing interacted with Lin Daiyu and Xiao Xichun. They had a share of everything in the East Courtyard. How could they not be a star for Jia Xuan?
"Sister-in-law You is right"
"It is indeed a way to keep healthy. I have been sleeping better lately.
Li Wan said quietly, echoing Youshi.
"So that's how it is."
Grandmother Jia, who was sitting at the head of the family, could see that Youshi and Li Wan were trying to protect Jia Xuan. She also didn't want to offend Jia Xuan, the most powerful man in the Jia family, because of Mrs. Xing's stupidity, so she decided to smooth things over.
"Step..."
However, a maid rushed in anxiously:"Old lady"
"The Duke, the eldest master, the second master, the eldest master Zhen, the second master Lian, the third master Huan, Rong'er, Cong'er, Lan'er, and Jun'er and Zhi'er from the outer courtyard are all here!"
Before he finished speaking, Jia She had already appeared in Rongqing Hall, followed by Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian and others.
All the female relatives present stood up to greet them, and everyone ignored the mess just now.
"Mother."
Jia She smiled and bowed to Grandmother Jia.
"Mother!"
"Old lady!"
Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen and others came forward to greet her.
"Xuan-ge'er didn't come with you? Why did you come first? Where is the master?"
Sitting on the couch, Jia Mu glanced at the scene and asked Jia She in a tone of accusation.
"Mother"
"Xuan'er went back to the East Mansion first, saying that he wanted to change his clothes.
Before Jia She could speak, Jia Zheng took the lead and said
"Well, let's wait a while."
After hearing this, the unhappiness on Jia's face faded.
No one saw a gloomy look in Jia She's eyes. He was the eldest son, and Jia's mother scolded him whenever he was not satisfied. But this good temper was reserved for the second brother Jia Zheng. It was simply unreasonable!
"I am late, please don't blame me, old lady."
Before the person arrived, the voice came first. A tall figure suddenly appeared in Rongqing Hall, wearing a jade crown and a white brocade dress with gold thread. He was indeed rich and noble, but it covered up Jia Xuan's fierce and murderous aura, which made people's eyes bright.
Not only little girls like Lin Daiyu, but also mature and beautiful women like Li Wan, Wang Xifeng, Youshi, and Qin Keqing were even more excited.
"Brother!"
Lin Daiyu didn't notice that little Xichun had rushed out and hugged Jia Xuan.
Jia Xuan picked up little Xichun and looked at her angry look, and couldn't help but smile:"If anyone bullies your sister, tell your brother and he will help you beat him up."
‘Boom! '
As soon as the words fell, the faces of all the women present changed drastically, and they all looked at Madam Xing.
"Xuan Ge Er"
"The clan sacrifice ceremony is over. The two lords, Rong and Ning, must be pleased in their graves."
"The Jia family is proud of you."
Grandmother Jia was very shrewd and kind. She interrupted and tried to cover up the matter.
Unfortunately, Jia Xuan had seen through everything and said coldly,"Old Madam,"
"I'm afraid some people may not think the same way as you do. I always like family reunion, but I am always treated as a sucker by others."
‘"Ah!"
Jia She, Jia Zhen and the others could hear the solemnity in these words and could not help but shudder.
Jia Zheng, however, was filled with emotion and agreed,"Xuan'er is right. There are so many evil spirits and monsters that we must clear them out first.""
‘????’
All the women were stunned. What was going on with Jia Zheng? This was caused by Jia Baoyu.
"elder brother"
"Bao Erge said you were a black-hearted person and deceived your second and third sisters."
"The eldest lady also said that you are ignorant and that we are not like women to wield spears and sticks."
Little Xichun didn't care about so much and told Jia Baoyu and Mrs. Xing all the bad things they said just now............
What?
Hearing this, the whole room was in uproar............
Jia She couldn't help but look at Madam Xing, his eyes filled with murderous intent. This foolish woman, whom he had advised before not to cause trouble, now has learned from Madam Wang and dared to speak against Jia Xuan behind his back. Is she tired of living?
"You evil beast!"
Jia Zheng was also furious, looking at Jia Baoyu, wishing he could beat him to death, he was more likely to cause trouble than to help.
"Hmm?"
With his brows slightly furrowed, Jia Xuan embraced Xichun, and his sharp eyes swept over everyone like a knife.
Especially Mrs. Xing and Jia Baoyu, they felt like thorns in their backs, sitting on pins and needles.
"fatty"
"You said I cheated my second and third sisters?"
Looking at Jia Baoyu, Jia Xuan said calmly.
""Puff!"
This title made Xiao Xichun, Lin Daiyu and other girls unable to hold back. It's true that Jia Baoyu's big face does look a little fat.
"Xuan Er"
"You are so black-hearted."
"They imprisoned my mother and took my fourth sister and sister Lin to the East Palace."
"Now I want my second and third sisters to go with me."
"Grandfather, look at him."
Jia Baoyu was a little afraid of Jia Xuan, so he had to act like a spoiled child to Grandmother Jia. Jia Zheng, who was standing by, could no longer hold back his anger, and Jia Huan and the others looked at Jia Baoyu with contempt.
""Haha!"
Jia Xuan chuckled, but everyone present was so nervous.
""Xuan'er." Grandmother
Jia couldn't help but call out, her cloudy old eyes full of pleading.
"If a child does not teach his parents, it is the father's fault"
"Zheng Shu is a straight-forward person, but he is biased in managing his family."
"It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't. It's always been Mrs. Wang who has educated Jia Baoyu, right?"
"Come, arrest Madam Wang."
Jia Xuan glanced at Grandmother Jia and shouted coldly:
""Yes!"
Nan Qiao, who was following beside him, turned around and left with a cold expression. At the same time, a group of maids with swords also left.
Jia Baoyu was still hiding in Grandmother Jia's arms, not knowing what had happened, and his eyes were staring at Lin Daiyu's table.
But Jia Zheng seemed to understand something, and said with great sorrow:"Mother, you and Shufen, alas!"
Grandmother Jia's face was also solemn. How could she not think that Jia Xuan was going to punish Mrs. Wang for Jia Baoyu's fault.
Everyone present was silent, waiting quietly. Jia She was also having a headache at this time. After dealing with Jia Baoyu, the next one would probably be his stupid second wife, Mrs. Xing, and he would inevitably be affected.
After a while, a plain figure was escorted into Rong Xi Tang by Nan Qiao, and the look he gave Jia Xuan was full of resentment and hatred.
Everyone looked at Mrs. Wang, who looked at least ten years older, and couldn't help feeling cold all over.
"Wang"
"It's been a long time since we last met. You don't look well."
"But you should thank me. If it weren't for me, how could you have met him?"
With a smile on his face, Jia Xuan pointed to Jia Baoyu in Jia's mother's arms.
"Yu'er!"
Madam Wang looked at Jia Baoyu without blinking, her face full of kind maternal love and longing.
However, Jia Baoyu glanced at Madam Wang and timidly shrank his head, as if he was disgusted with Madam Wang's old appearance. This hurt Madam Wang's heart, her face suddenly turned pale, and she was at a loss.
Other people's impression of Jia Baoyu was refreshed again. This boy is really a wolf in sheep's clothing!
"Jia Baoyu was ignorant and offended me, so you have to pay for this debt."
With a sharp gaze, Jia Xuan did not take Mrs. Wang seriously at all, and said indifferently:"Recently, Wang Ziteng was promoted to the second-rank minister of the palace guards, in charge of the palace guards."
"It's really amazing. In just over a decade, he climbed from a small seventh-rank official to a second-rank official."
""Shua!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang's eyes immediately lit up, as if she had grasped hope.
"Your Wang family should have prospered because of Prince Tengjian's favor in the emperor's heart."
"But now, everything is going to fail because of Jia Baoyu's words. What do you think?"
"What do you want to do ?"
Mrs. Wang stared at Jia Xuan.
Among the people present, Wang Xifeng also felt something was wrong.
