Baoyu Fights the Red Chamber

Chapter 24: Inner Weft Secret: Examination by Chance and Coincidence

Baoyu does not want to eunuch Jia Zhen, nor does he want to make friends with Qin Ye, which is obviously too difficult.He thinks the best way is to beat Jia Zhen into a paralyzed person, so that if he has no strength to make troubles, the Ning Mansion will still be able to hold on.It's just that this matter is more difficult, and he will not be able to achieve his goal until he grows into a flamboyant dude and hands over to a drunkard and other local hooligans.

Wucaishi hated that iron could not be made into steel, and began to curse, he said it wisely and considered it carefully, and his spirit returned to his body and snored.

About half an hour later, the servant girl woke him up, saying that the old lady of the Rong Mansion and the others had come.

It was not until Shen time (four o'clock in the afternoon), because Jiamu was too old, and it was not easy for the female seats to be dragged until dark.

Baoyu will accompany Jialan and Jiajun to sit at the table.The women's seat is set in Youshi's courtyard, and it is not suitable for children. Except for a group of women's relatives, the men only have three radish heads.

Jia Lan and Jia Zhu considered themselves men, their little faces full of embarrassment, they resigned and were forced to stay by Unscrupulous Uncle Bao.Qin Shi laughed and said that her brother Qin Zhong is also here, why don't the four young men open a table with Sanchun and Daiyu.

Baoyu secretly sighed that the historic meeting was irresistibly coming!There was joy on his face, and he whispered to the two buns: "I can't even handle the backyard, and you still want to be an official? Hold on!"

The two buns are also governors, and vaguely understand why they can't go to the men's table, and they solemnly puff up their chests: "If I don't go to hell, whoever will go to hell!"

While biting my ears, the children's seats were set up, Daiyu's left was Yingchun, her right was Tanchun, and Baoyu's left and right were two steamed buns. Ningfu's daughter Xichun took the upper seat, leaving the second seat for her younger generation Qin Zhong.

At this time, Brother Qin was led in by Rui Zhu and a few maids, and everyone in the room yelled, and Wang Xifeng shouted: "This is actually comparing our children! How old are you? Ouch, Mo I'm afraid, hurry up and show the ancestors..."

Jia's mother scolded with a smile: "You poor family, the children of other people are gentle and gentle, it's like you throwing yourself into the lake, don't scare the little brother. Good boy, come to the old woman's side and ignore them... Oh, this character! Baoyu, come quickly! It’s not like we’re going to compete.”

Fake Stone had no choice but to drag two buns into the disaster together.At first, he glanced coldly, and he knew that Qin Zhongyan was taller than him: soap boots with thick soles over two inches, ancient men's high-heeled shoes, and he didn't know how brother Qin could walk steadily.

Just like that, Qin Zhong was only a fingernail taller than him, and his swaying shy and shy girlish demeanor, he, a pure man, didn't like it.Because of contempt, a certain dog, relying on being an elder, walked up to him, stood on tiptoe calmly, and looked down at a certain "handsome man with pink face and red lips".

Seeing this, he couldn't help being slightly shocked: the expression in his eyebrows and eyes resembled that of Qin Keqing, and he couldn't believe that the two were not related by blood.

In the original book, Qin Ye adopted a son and a daughter from the Yangsheng Tang when he was about half a hundred years old. He adopted Ziyao, and later got Qin Zhong. It didn't say that Qin Zhong was his own flesh and blood, or he was adopted.Wucaishi only knows what Shenying Baoyu knows, but he can't figure it out.

The fake stone fell in love with him, and after a bunch of wives and grandmas casually gave them gifts, kneading ~ kneading enough of the top-notch pets, he expressed his closeness to Jialan Jiazhu, who is Qin Zhong’s peer, and he personally ushered him into his seat with the style of an elder .

The orchid bun fungus steamed stuffed bun likes Qin Zhong very much - it's easy to bully just by looking at it!So there is no need for a vicious elder to oppress, and a series of intimate words.Sister Lin, who had always been over-the-top, didn't reject Brother Qin, and stood up to prepare vegetables for him.

After receiving such a warm welcome, Brother Qin seemed much more lively, answering every question, and speaking without asking.

Lan Jun tried to seduce someone to come to Jia's private school, Qin Zhong expressed regret, saying that he had a teacher, but also that the teacher was weak and sick, and that the matter of studying "must be accompanied by three or five confidantes, and we often discuss it with each other, so that we can benefit" and so on. It seemed that he wanted a certain elder to persuade his sister to fire the teacher, so that everyone could get together in Jia's private acquaintance.

A certain person only looked forward to the future and didn't pursue the past when he turned his head back. But according to the original book, Qin Zhong's masters will either return next year or the year after. Kindness... Well, he is mainly not interested in getting involved with Qin Zhong, even if he finds out the background of the Qin family siblings, so what?What needs to be exterminated is Jia Zhen, Qin Keqing, a little woman in the backyard, it is impossible to openly accept customers, and it is even more impossible to collude with four kings and eight publics to plot rebellion.

So he looked around and talked about it, and asked about Brother Qin's high hall.Brother Qin didn't mention his mother, but said sadly, "my father is old, and he was afraid that the weather would not be a holiday, so he chose the word 'Jingqing' for my nephew early, hoping that my nephew can live freely and firmly in the world like a fish in water" and so on.The slender resentment between the brows at the time of speaking won Lin sister to look at each other with tears, Xichun Tanchun Yingchun tried her best to comfort him, and Lan Zun's two buns patted their chests to recognize him as a brother with a different surname.

Baoyu sighed: "My lord is full of knowledge about the construction and repair of the palace and mausoleum. I often want to ask a question or two. I heard that Lord Qin has not come today?"——He also just thought about the birthday of his parents-in-law and his mother-in-law. When Qin Ye was ill, it seemed impolite for Qin Ye to only send his son; if Qin Ye fell ill, it would be absurd for Qin Zhong not to be at home to wait on the sick, but to come to the banquet.

But seeing Qin Zhong's face showing surprise, he didn't answer him, but said: "My father always said that his job is to be a literati, so Uncle Bao will be an official through the imperial examination?"

Uncle Bao justly claimed that his father was also an official in the Ministry of Industry, "Three hundred and sixty lines, one can be the number one scholar", anyone who aspires to be an official through the imperial examination should pay attention to all industries in the world.

All the children were respectful, and Qin Zhong sighed slightly: "Uncle Bao, great advice! Listening to the king's words is better than reading ten years of books! Unfortunately, my father is too weak to drink, and he has already changed his clothes for a short rest..."

Baoyu's heart beat suddenly. If it's in his heart, it's Goldfinger, ah, Goldfinger. Why don't you ask me if you send it to your side?He smiled immediately and said: "Don't worry, Jing Qing, although you seem to be serving your father at this moment, but he has already rested, the old man feels shallow, and the slightest movement will wake him up. I am very familiar with Brother Zhen's family. Sit down, I'll take a look quietly. If the wives and grandmas ask, just say I've gone to change clothes."

Except for the time-traveling gangster named Fake Stone, none of the sons in the Red Mansion were willing to stay with their father. Qin Zhong made a few lies, and obediently allowed Uncle Bao to visit his father on his behalf.

As soon as a certain one left the banquet, the maids and women followed him, thinking that he was going to the toilet and leading the way attentively.

The fake stone hates the eyes everywhere, but it can't resist the reality, so it has to go with the light—Sai Yin rewards it!Since he had some money on hand, he always carried gold and silver locks with him, but it was the first time he actually used them.Even though there was blood, the words were naturally more beautiful than Yinzi, claiming that the little brother of the Qin family was worried about his father and had to laugh with them, he couldn't bear to go to see Master Qin.

The maids and women were all obedient, and they sent him to the second gate with flattering words, and helped call the male servants.

Baoyu thought that having them speak out would save money, but seeing the disapproval from the servants' faces, he hurriedly stuffed them with "drinking wine and eating fruit" coins before their persuasion.

With money to pave the way, Baoyu came to the guest room smoothly.

Don't mention how familiar he is with this place, he actually spent money to buy a way to get there.A certain dog secretly vowed that it would have autonomy in the future, and would not need a servant if it could: as long as it was paid for, it would lead the way. Is this a housekeeper or a house thief?Don't say that his request was reasonable and the servants didn't stop it. The servants of the two houses have done too many things that are not good for the master's family.The master and the slave are naturally contradictory entities, so if you have a lot of servants, you will feel uncomfortable for yourself.

The three boys guarding the door got up to say hello, pretended to be a stone and asked a few words, then shook their heads and said, "This will not work, you will sweat a lot if you drink too much alcohol. Go get a basin of hot water, and I will wipe Master Qin's face as a substitute." Brother Qin is filial."

The little boy just wanted to say that such things can't be labored by the second master Bao, and the broken silver has been stuffed into his hands.

The young man in Ning's mansion is well-informed, not to mention knowledgeable, it is estimated that the second master Bao has something to say to the old man.Although this is a bit unbelievable, but the old and the young are of the same generation, and the slaves don't care about the master's affairs.

After a while hot water came, Baoyu took the basin and signaled them to open the door lightly.After entering, he signaled them to close it.

The boys winked and whispered their ears to guess what was going on.Someone cleverly thought of Qin Zhong's appearance, and asserted: "It must mean that Uncle Qin will be attached to the family school!"

After saying a word, the three servants put their arms around their shoulders and laughed. Haven't they seen any dirty things in the Ning Mansion?

But Baoyu put down the copper basin and looked at Qin Ye on the couch.

The old man has gray hair and a sparse white beard. He is so thin that he seems to have only a handful of bones left. I don’t know if his skeleton has shrunk as he gets older. This guy really doesn’t look like a northern man. If he didn’t shrink too much, he would be considered short in the South.

At this moment, old man Qin closed his eyes and snored lightly, his eyelids fluttered uncomfortably, and he didn't know what he was dreaming about.

One that was bleeding refused to show mercy, took out the "mantra incense" and lit it, twisted a hot towel to wipe the old man's face.

Qin Ye woke up immediately, Baoyu threw the towel and reported to the house (anyway, you can't hide it if you don't tell it), and held the old man who was about to get up: "Don't move! I want to tell you that old age is a scandal, and the boy is here Don't make too much noise at the door. I don't care, your daughter... answer me a few things first." After speaking, one after another question came out like a cannonball, and Qin Ye resolutely refused to give him any time to ask him a question.

Qin Ye was ashamed and annoyed, he didn't understand how he could answer the bastard in every way, he wanted to crush Baoyu to death, but he couldn't help but answer first, and as the questions became more and more intensive, he didn't think about other thoughts.

About a moment later, the fake stone asked all kinds of important things that he wanted to know. At this time, a servant knocked on the door and shouted: "Second Master Bao, the old lady is looking for you!"

Baoyu responded: "Come here! Let them wait a while!" After saying that, he pressed the "mantra incense" that had not been burned out, stared at Qin Ye and said in a low voice: "I am using the excuse that your son is worried about your body, and I will take care of you for him. I came to visit you, and what you said will not be spread outside." Speaking of this, the tone was emphasized: "It will definitely not spread to Ningfu! I will not tell... people who shouldn't know." Thinking of buying a murderer to kill him to silence him, although it is unlikely that Qin Ye would put his hand into the Rong Mansion to poison him, he should not go to school, his family's long tails are not like the legendary kung fu masters)

But seeing the corners of Qin Ye's eyes twitching fiercely, his spine shivering, he shouted "Come here, come here" and ran to the door.

Qin Ye stood up: "Stop!!!"

The fake stone didn't listen, so Ma Liu opened the door.Hey, besides the three boys, there are two adult male servants outside the door, and another steward is running here with several male servants.

Speaking of it, I don't blame Jiamu for looking for someone, Ningfu University, a certain one has disappeared for almost an hour since leaving the banquet!

Baoyu ran out and hid behind the servants, feeling safe, and said to Qin Ye with a smile: "Master Qin, I will come, one is that your son is worried about your health; the other is that I am under the care of Grandma Xiaorong today, so I have to think about it as much as possible." Snacks. The room where she took me to rest, not only is more exquisite than here, but it is much more unique, I wonder if Mr. Qin has been there?"

After speaking, he felt that he was very kind. If the other party couldn't understand, he couldn't blame him for not reminding him.

It's a pity that Qin Ye didn't think he was kind, and his eyes were bulging, as if he was going to swallow him alive.The servants were amazed by this appearance, but they couldn't care about the master's affairs, so they hurriedly embraced the phoenix egg and went back to the table.

On the way, the steward curiously asked Mr. Qin what happened?Baoyu sighed: "When I was a small restaurant, he didn't believe me when I gave my name. It's no wonder that I went there abruptly. Fortunately, I have you testifying, otherwise people would say that I molested the old man."

All the servants laughed, and one servant said: "There is something wrong with the second master Bao. How could the father-in-law not misunderstand you when he is doing the job of a boy? Master Qin is very strict. One day, the second master Bao will bring us a basin of water, and the uncle will order it." Reward!"

The servants laughed loudly again, and the steward reprimanded: "Stop talking nonsense, make fun of me, and carefully peel off your skin."

Back at the banquet, Mrs. Jia's wife, Youshi, waited for a lot of concern, and a certain one made a false statement, in exchange for everyone's praise.

At this time, the sky was dark, and the female family members of the Rong Mansion took their leave, and arrested the three buns who were reluctant to part with Qin Zhong.

It is inconvenient to pass through the Huifang Garden with lights and festoons. The carriage leaves from the gate of the General's Mansion and takes a detour through Ningrong Street to the west corner gate of Rongfu.Mrs. Wang thought her son was tired today, so she refused to let him see Jia Jun, and ordered all the women to take him home.

Baoyu returned to her room, finally able to take off her mask, wanted to laugh, but couldn't—

Qin Keqing and Nayao's deceased son were twins born to Qin Ye, a famous prostitute in the capital, when Qin Ye was nearly half a hundred years old.The official was dismissed for prostitution, so he had to take a detour and "adopt" his own flesh and blood from the Yangshengtang.He would do this because he has no children.And having no children is a tragedy in the backyard. Either they die when they are not born, or they don't grow up after they are born.It wasn't until his mother and wife passed away that the family was considered stable: at this time, he was already a hopeless man, and he gave up on having children, and emptied out the backyard.

Old and lonely, with a little daughter and no mother, he finally quietly bought Huaxin's Qin Qing as a maidservant, and then took over the house.From then on, he only had Qin Qing as his housemate. When Qin Keqing was ten years old, he got Qin Zhong again.Considering that there are many people who know Qin Qing, he is afraid that others will find out, and dare not give Qin Qing a position, so Qin Zhong is a "servant's son" who is only a little higher than a servant.

Qin Ye's small size was due to his mother. The Qin family was born and bred in the capital, and his mother was from Lingnan. His grandfather became a capital official, so he was able to marry his daughter into a family of officials in the capital.

The Qin family's poverty can also solve the mystery: Qin Ye's grandfather is known as an upright official, and his mother doesn't have a worthy dowry.Qin Ye had two direct brothers and a concubine brother in the front, and two concubine brothers in the back. He received less than [-]% of the ancestral property.Even if Ying Shanlang's income is higher, he has such a house full of wives and concubines, and he also takes care of and buys famous prostitutes, and he will be sick when he gets old, so it's no wonder he doesn't toss to the point of poverty.That's right, it's the poor ones, the Qin family has declined, and only Qin Ye has become an official in the whole family, so the relatives should flatter him, if he didn't spend too much money, he wouldn't be poor.

In any case, the love is deep and the rain is misty, the famous ~ prostitute has cultivated into a real fruit, and the companion ~ the man will die in old age, and only owes one title.

The author has something to say: Don't worry, Mr. Qin, I will be rotten with your flirtatious affairs!
