Jin Yuliangyuan of the Red Chamber

Before long, the man from before ran out, followed by a man, tall and tall, dressed in a moon-white cotton robe and wrapped in a large white cloak, walked out quickly, walked up to Baoyu and raised his hand, He said with a smile, "It turns out that Brother Ye is here, and I'm far away from welcoming you. I hope you don't take offense."

This person is none other than Gu Junbai who has a double bond with Bao Dai!

Baoyu was not surprised, and said with a smile, "It's also my younger brother who came in a hurry and failed to deliver the post in advance. How can you blame Brother Gu?"

Gu Junbai looked around, those people were eager to squeeze here, but it was not good to just rush forward.Gu Junbai saluted with his hands, and said loudly: "Everyone, there are guests at home today, it is inconvenient to receive you all, the weather is cold, please go back now, it will be the same when you come back tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and took Baoyu to go in.Seeing this, people had no choice but to leave without mentioning it.

Here Gu Junbai directly dragged Baoyu into the study, and asked someone to serve him good tea.Baoyu observed along the way, this Gu's mansion is not very big, at least not as big as Lin's mansion, but it is small and exquisite, every plant and tree is beautiful and elegant, although it is early winter, everything is withered, but you can still get a glimpse of its charm, you can see the people who arranged it There are hills and valleys in the chest, and he is an elegant person.

Gu Junbai's study room is full of books, and there is a large copper stove in the middle, making a sizzling burning sound, and the whole room is warm and cozy.Baoyu sat down in the guest seat, watched Gu Junbai drinking tea, and said with a smile: "I came here uninvited, but I came here to congratulate Brother Gu! Congratulations to Brother Gu for being the number one scholar, and you will be on the rise in the future, and prosperity and wealth are just around the corner. !"

Gu Junbai was somewhat embarrassed, pushed the teacup towards him again, and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, please forgive me for not telling the truth that day. But I didn't expect Brother Ye to find me. So, I will introduce it again today Once. My surname is Gu Ming'an, style name Junbai, from Yangzhou, aged 27."

Baoyu held the teacup with a smile, and the two took a sip. He put down the cup and said sincerely: "Brother Gu's name is Junbai, it's not a secret, but I'm really sorry. Ye Hai...isn't my real name." "Oh? Gu An asked with doubts in his eyes, Baoyu stood up, raised his hand, and said: "Jia Baoyu, 15 years old, has no name yet, people from the capital, brother Gu, just call me Baoyu."

As soon as the words came out, Gu Junbai's face was full of astonishment, and he lost his voice: "Jia Baoyu?! You are... the second in Jinke? And the champion in martial arts?" Baoyu smiled lightly: "What are those false names? Brother Gu I laughed."

Gu Junbai didn't react for ten seconds, and when he came back to his senses, he smiled in amazement: "Sure enough, since ancient times, heroes have been born in youth, and Jia Xiong has achieved such achievements before he was a weak crown. I really can't match it. , I deserve the champion."

Baoyu hurriedly sat down and smiled modestly: "Brother Gu's words killed me. I admired Brother Gu very much after I heard your flute in the pavilion in the lake that day. I just got it by luck." This second place, Brother Gu is really talented and learned, I am convinced."

The two were courteous for a long time, Baoyu said: "I have been here for so long, I haven't seen your father yet, I wonder if I can let my younger brother visit?" Gu An was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said: "My father... passed away more than ten years ago. The same goes for my mother, and I only have one younger sister, so..." Baoyu hurriedly apologized: "My little brother just doesn't know what to say, so please forgive me, Brother Gu."

Gu Junbai smiled and waved his hands to indicate that it was okay, and then sighed: "I have been supporting this big family all these years, and my sister is fifteen this year, and I just participated in the draft, so I can feel more at ease. " Baoyu suppressed the question that came to his mouth, and said with a smile: "Why worry, Brother Gu is already successful in his studies, and within half a year, the Holy Spirit will be reused, and he can fulfill his elder brother's ambition!"

He laughed and said in his heart: I only hope that when we go underground in the future, our ancestors and ancestors will not blame us!

The two continued to talk, and Baoyu inquired a little about the situation in his home. Seeing that it was getting late, he got up to leave.Gu Junbai tried hard to persuade him to stay, "The first two times, I failed to show my kindness as a landlord, and instead cost you money, how can you feel sorry for my brother? You have to stay for a meal today no matter what you say!"

Baoyu laughed and said, "It's not that my younger brother doesn't show face. It's really too late for the elders in the family to order not to go back. You also know that I live with relatives, so it's better not to be too presumptuous. We will have plenty of time in the future, and we will spend no more money when the time comes." It's too late." Gu An had no choice but to give up, and personally sent him out of the gate, saw him get into the carriage, and only walked in after a long journey.

An old servant followed him and asked in a low voice: "My lord, this young master is full of dignity. I don't know where he came from. He won't..." "He is the young master of the Rongguo Mansion. I can tell that he is a man of noble conduct and a gentleman, don't worry." Gu An said as he walked, "Miss has been out for almost an afternoon, and hasn't come back yet? If she comes back, call her for dinner."

It was already dark when Baoyu returned home, and it gets dark early in winter in Japan, and the air gets colder and colder.He hurriedly walked towards Daiyu's courtyard, but he was still thinking about the news that Mingyan told him on the way back.

The Gu family is also a scholarly family. It was a famous family in Yangzhou in the previous dynasty. All the children in the family were talented, but at the end of the previous dynasty, the emperor was stupid and trusted the eunuchs. The imperial examination was once made a mess by them. None of them are officials.Until □ raised troops to change the government, they had feelings for the former dynasty again, and □□ sent someone to invite them out of the mountain, but they were rejected by Mrs. Gu. Since then, the Gu family has been regarded as the orphan of the former dynasty.

Therefore, Gu An's participation in the imperial examination this time was a change in their attitude. The emperor appointed him as the number one scholar again, and the royal family's intentions were also expressed.It's just that the collateral lineage of the Gu family is prosperous, and there must be many people in the family who oppose it. Gu An's move undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on him.

He somewhat understands why Shui Hong did this. Gu An's own talent and learning are one aspect, and the most important thing is to buy people's hearts. Being generous, the heart of a scholar is easy to conquer.

And his sister... entered the draft.Shuihong...will he receive it from the palace?

In the study, Shui Hong was chatting with Shui Rong.

"Have you seen all those portraits? If there is one you like, I can propose a marriage for you. You are really not young." Shui Hong looked at his younger brother with a helpless expression on the opposite side, and persuaded him earnestly, "You My sister-in-law is also worried about this matter every day, you can't delay any longer, or you won't be able to hold your son when I become a grandfather! It's up to you then!"

Shui Rong was still a little depressed at first, but he couldn't help laughing after hearing his words, "What are you talking about! Is there anyone who curses people like you?" After speaking, he sighed and said, "I didn't pick it, but you gave it to me." I don’t think those are good! It’s either not good-looking or too temperamental, in short, I don’t like it. You can’t bear to let me spend my whole life with someone I don’t like, right?”

Shui Hong shook a rattle in front of him, making a "dong dong" sound.Shui Xingmu was just born a few days ago, so he had someone buy these back early, and he didn't care if the child didn't know how to play with them, he always shook him to tease him, and every time he saw his son smiling with bared teeth, he felt very satisfied .

He smiled and said, "I knew you wouldn't settle down so easily. I have another choice here." Under the eyes of Shui Rong who didn't expect much, he got up and took out a scroll from the painting tube standing beside the table and gave it to him. , looked at him while opening it, continued to shake his rattle, and leaned into the soft chair, "Look, isn't this pretty enough? It's a scholarly family again, so it goes without saying that you have a literary temperament. Also," he said Leaning forward a little, "I asked someone to inquire. This little girl is quite lively. She likes to run outside, which suits your appetite. Ah! Take a good look!"

Shui Rong rolled his eyes at him before turning his gaze to the unfolded scroll in his hand. "Huh? It really looks good..." He murmured, "Although this one is not as good as Xiao Yu'er, it still catches the eye."

"Bang!" Shuihong threw a soft pillow over and said angrily, "Don't say such things in the future! Let Baoyu know what he will think?"

Shui Rong rubbed his slightly painful handsome face, and muttered: "I'm just joking!" Seeing Shui Hong's eyes, Dao Zi hurriedly changed his words: "Oh! I know, I won't talk about it in the future! This time Is the head office okay? Hey, tell me where this girl is, and I'll send someone to check it out?"

Turning back to the portrait, I muttered to myself: How do you feel that you have seen it somewhere?

Baoyu stopped in front of the Moon Cave Gate, after thinking about it, he turned the corner and went back to his yard first, took off his cloak, and Mingyan waited on his saddle.

"You send a letter back and ask Fu'er to look for another Zhuangzi. I heard that there are hot springs near the mountains in the suburbs of Beijing? It's best to be able to divert water. If not, buy land and let's build it ourselves. It must be done. "He ordered Mingyan to say.Mingyan was a little puzzled: "Second Master, don't we already have Zhuangzi? Why do we still need to buy it? Are you... want to take a bath?"

Baoyu put down the half-drinked hot tea and stood up, looked at him with a smile and said, "Yes, I just thought about it, you just send the message back." "Go, come with me to Miss Lin's place." He was overjoyed and agreed repeatedly.The master and servant went out again.

When he arrived at the door of Daiyu's room, Baoyu unconsciously put on a smile, opened the door and went in and raised his voice, "Are you in a hurry? I brought you..." Half of the words got stuck in his throat, and his nose smelled it first. The strong smell of medicine in the room was intensified by the heat.

His heart tightened, his face tensed up, and he walked quickly into the room, and saw Qingwen standing behind the screen, Mingyan followed behind, and tried his best to wink at Qingwen, but Qingwen just shook her head, and he could only do so. He stood outside the screen and waited, holding a heavy gourd in his hand.

Baoyu turned to the bed in a few steps, Daiyu's face was pale, and the brocade quilt was tightly wrapped around her body, and there was a bowl on the small table next to it, with brown medicinal juice remaining at the bottom of the bowl.Seeing him coming, some blush was added to the abnormal paleness, and she buried her little face in the quilt, only revealing a pair of foggy black eyes.

The author has something to say: Because the exam week is coming, the update depends on the situation.Seeing some pros say that they are too slow, I actually think so too.Because it is the first time I have just practiced writing an essay, I don't have an outline until now, and I didn't expect it to be so long, so the plot will inevitably be a bit procrastinated.What's more, it's transmigrated as a male protagonist, mainly to write about his growth process, not as much love and hatred as a female protagonist can write.Besides, the relationship between Baoyu and Daiyu has existed from the very beginning, and it is the type of long-term flow, so it seems that there is no climax. It is normal for everyone to feel dull and tasteless.In fact, I regret it now. I wrote my favorite story settings when my writing was immature and ruined them.Sometimes I think that since I have written every story that I like, I will definitely fail to write it at the beginning, so I am very contradictory.However, I will still insist on finishing it. It is the first time I have written so long, and I am reluctant to give up.
