[Red Mansion] Master Jia

Baoyu, the second roommate of Jia's family, is muddle-headed, still an ignorant and passionate son, Mrs. Wang intends to let him make progress, but Baoyu doesn't like that, instead, it's the bastard and brat Jia Huan who makes progress later.

In the eyes of Mrs. Wang, Baoyu's dementia became more serious.His sisters and sisters are all married, and he grumbles every day, thinking "why do you have to make those dead fish eyes", he counts in his heart all day long, only sister Lin is not married, even sister Xiangyun He's engaged...he thinks a lot, and naturally he gets more enlightened. In addition, Mrs. Wang also wants to find him a good wife in general, and Baoyu even taunted about his longing.

Although the fourth girl was raised by Jia's mother, she was her cousin's grandmother, not her direct grandmother, so it's okay for Xichun to be engaged early, but Baoyu is a serious grandson, and Mrs. Wang is not good at giving it to her with great fanfare. The son is looking for a relative, but he contacts in private and makes a verbal agreement, and then he can wait until Xiao Xiao is hired by three matchmakers and six recruits. This is more clever, otherwise Baoyu will be old in two years, and he will be of a suitable age and family background I'm afraid there will be few good melon girls.

Mrs. Wang was very anxious about this matter, and she searched for a few. There was really no one better than Daiyu's family background and character. Without Daiyu, there is no need to talk about Baoyu's future.

Mrs. Wang thought about those reasons again, and decided to hint to the stepmother of the Lin family. As for Wang Xifeng's side, there was no movement, Mrs. Wang had already given up her mind.The first room is going to completely cut off the relationship with the second room. The master is also thin-skinned. The elder sees the master for nothing. If he sarcasm a few words, the master can't stand it, and he will fall in the study when he comes back. Beating and beating, even Aunt Zhao went to make fun of herself.

……

"Your second aunt came the day before yesterday and said a few words to me..." Mrs. Lu called Daiyu, Mrs. Wang found a reason to visit the day before yesterday, and she actually meant to ask for marriage.

Mrs. Lu was smiling at the time. If it wasn't because of her upbringing, she would have scratched Mrs. Wang's face. Don't think that who is behind the rumors about Baoyu and his sisters and sisters, especially the girls from his Lin family? Stir the water out.

Although there were no big disturbances, Daiyu is still a bit out of control now, but she and the master both thought that after a few more years, the wind would pass, and Daiyu would still be able to pick out a good husband-in-law.What's more, everyone in the house knows that Baoyu is an idiot, and he can't take it seriously.

Daiyu has the intention of becoming a monk. In the past, she only hinted at Lin Ruhai and his wife, but how could Lin Ruhai agree? It's just that Daiyu has a clear mind. In their Lin family, their father also had several servant girls.Daiyu used to take it for granted that as long as a husband loves his wife, she never paid attention to those little maids.

But some things, she saw in her eyes, and gradually changed her mind.

Especially Xichun's marriage... It's not that there are only one couple in this world, which made Daiyu think a lot.Coupled with Jia Lian's supernatural powers, Daiyu really indulged in the magic of magic, and those mysteries are more attractive than love and love.

As for Baoyu, Daiyu lowered her eyes and was silent for a long time.

Seeing that her stepdaughter didn't say anything, Mrs. Lu thought her stepdaughter was mean-spirited, besides, she really knew that when she was in Jia's mansion, that Baoyu treated Daiyu really caringly.

Mrs. Lu frowned. The master said last night that he didn't want to marry his daughter to Jia Baoyu, so he directed at Wang's dirty tricks. If it wasn't for the sake of his wife, the master would have wanted Jia Zheng's family to drink Northwest The wind goes.

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Lu dialed: "Your father and I didn't like that Baoyu. First, your mother-in-law is not easy to get along with when we marry in the future. Second,..." She pondered for a while, feeling that Dai Yu is not young anymore, so it's nothing to say, so he continued: "Secondly, there are four maids around Baoyu. This is still found." Lu sighed and added, His face was slightly disgusted.

That Baoyu was young, with so many houses, I heard that the habit of going to someone's house to eat rouge when she saw a beautiful maid hadn't changed...

Hearing that Daiyu sighed vaguely, she knew Baoyu's temperament, he was gentle and sincere to any daughter's family, those concerns were not fake, but it was only limited to those sisters who were beautiful .Maybe she didn't care about Baoyu flirting with her maids before, but Daiyu doesn't want to live that kind of life now. Among the few sisters, Xichun may be the most blessed one.

"Mother just refuse." Daiyu made a decision, and said solemnly again: "Yu'er doesn't want to get married in this life."

Lu Shi was startled, looked at Daiyu's serious look, and burst into a smile, just thought she was a joke of her little daughter, and didn't take it to heart.

……

Because Jia Lian is a grandson, since the previous dynasty, the grandchildren have not had to worry about their grandparents Ding. Thoughts, but Mrs. Wang didn't think about it. After returning to Baoyu, it would not be easy to find a good marriage in the capital, not to mention that the Lin family also lived in the capital. Seeing the second room being bullied by outsiders, it is still a little bit of power.

However, Jia Zheng believed that Jinling was the foundation of Jia's family. Going back to mourn was not only a filial piety, but he also secretly wanted to avoid everything in the capital.Seeing that Baoyu is not up to date and has no prospects in the future, Huan'er is still a few years younger, and it is not time to take the exam, but Lian'er in the big house is capable, and he feels a little uncomfortable.

... Mrs. Wang saw that the master had made up her mind, but she was not reconciled, because Baoyu hadn't married a wife yet.She began to feign illness.

In fact, since Yuanchun's death, her family was separated, and the old lady's mourning, under a series of blows, she recovered from illness, and then got sick again after a little wind, and her health has really deteriorated a lot.

The radiance of Jia Lian's God of Light gradually spread across the land. Several apprentices learned some skills and were sent outside to expand the territory by Jia Lian, but they were ordered to organize their forces so that the emperor could not be taboo. Instead, they had to learn from Buddhism and Taoism. "No competition with the world", the blessing technique is the most basic, the effect of magic is immediate, some basic potions are formulated, and can save some people suffering from intractable diseases and poor families without medicine, Jia Lian is not an aboveboard A good guy, but he's not a bad guy, he doesn't mind "benefiting" everyone, he doesn't mind "benefiting" everyone, not to mention that his disciples are really kind, and he is a Jia Lian. Rescue those in need.

It is also true that some people kowtowed to Jia Lian's "benefactor" in the street, and called him a male Bodhisattva. Jia Lian was helpless. On the surface, he believed in the God of Light, and what helped them was magic and potion, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it became Bodhisattva and elixir.

Emperor Kangxi was also concerned about the rapid development of Jia Lian's Guangming God for a while, but Jia Lian never did anything else. After all, Buddhism and Taoism were very popular in the Qing Dynasty. They preached, and even treated them preferentially for many years, and they could build churches. Unfortunately, the Pope over there was too ignorant, and insisted that the people of the Qing Dynasty only bow down to their gods, but not their ancestors. This is unreasonable!

This is also the reason why Kangxi gradually lost his affection for the Catholic Church. The letters he communicated with the West because of missionary affairs have been traveling at sea for many years, but the letter from the Pope of Rome made Kangxi really resentful. This is also why Kangxi deliberately indulged Jia Lian One of the reasons for preaching is that only those who agree with him can develop in the Qing Dynasty. Those who don’t respect the customs of the Qing people, and those who don’t respect him as the emperor, Kangxi snorted coldly, he doesn’t mind banning Catholicism.

Kangxi was originally interested in Catholicism, especially in natural science knowledge such as astronomy and calendar. He even doted on Nan Huairen, and thought that he was an admirable missionary to the former missionary Matteo Ricci. When Matteo Ricci was in the Ming Dynasty, he went to the countryside to do as the Romans did. The Catholic Church never said that believers in the Qing Dynasty were not allowed to kneel down to worship their ancestors... Therefore, in his opinion, the current Catholic Pope really despises the Qing Dynasty and his emperor. , what he says and does makes no sense at all.

Jia Lian’s Guangming Religion made Kangxi show it to the Catholic Church, and became a positive example. Every time Jia Lian visited, there were Catholic missionaries present. Comparing the two, Jia Lian not only allows believers to worship their ancestors casually, but also pays attention to human ethics. , and it is true that he and his apprentices have "god-like abilities".

I have seen Kangxi a lot, although I know it depends on aptitude, and Jia Lian always explained that this is similar to Maoshan Taoism, a little ability is just a bit magical, and it does not mean immortality, otherwise he would not have added a crow's feet recently , Even my grandmother passed away.

Kangxi squinted his eyes and looked at Jia Lian. Sure enough, he saw that Jia Lian had "matured". When he smiled, there were indeed fine lines at the corners of his eyes.

He completely stopped thinking about "immortality", how many emperors were immersed in this kind of illusory dream, and then later ordered messy pills, which destroyed the foundation of the body.

There are still some years before the death of Emperor Kangxi in history. Jia Lian added some fine lines to his face according to his own age. He looks much more mature and doesn't go home very much. Wang Xifeng feels that he is not young Now, her son is growing up, and she is less concerned with the things in the boudoir. Compared with the time when she saw Jia Lian and this stubborn one, she felt that life is quieter now, and she also has the money Jia Lian gave and the theater she found. After Jia Mu's filial piety period is over, he will come over every now and then to entertain her with a performance, even Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing are all covered.

Mrs. Xing stabbed Wang Xifeng sourly: "It's still Lian'er who is considerate, working outside, thinking of your loneliness, and not afraid of spending money. How much money does this cost?"

This theater troupe spends a lot of money to perform a show. The daughters-in-law and girls in the mansion don’t go out all the year round. Watching a play is actually a big event at home. Once a year, they use the excuse of elders’ birthdays or something. The family is like their Jia family, and there are men who spend money to invite people to come and sing in a few days just to hate their daughter-in-law.

Wang Xifeng smiled, the old lady is gone, the second wife has left the house, and the head mother-in-law is not the mother-in-law of the family, as long as she can live with face, the family also has the final say, suddenly no one fights with her, except the whole body The relaxation of the heart, there is really some meaningless loneliness and emptiness...

After saying this, Ping'er smiled and said: "How many wives and grandmas want to live in peace like this, but grandma is thinking about the old days when she was green-browed and black-eyed. Not afraid of being tired." She pursed her lips and smiled.

Wang Xifeng pretended to be angry and said: "Wow, you girl, you are actually quarreling with grandma. See if I don't send you out." It is also time to find a suitable man for Ping'er, and never marry a maid in the palace. It's too late.So she glanced at Ping'er with a half-smile: "I told Second Master that I fell in love with a person who is hardworking and hardworking, and has a good character. That is Zhang Da, who is in charge of the shop outside our house. He used to be Second Master. The son of my mother's housekeeper, who can read and write, is also about the same age, why don't you reward him, what do you think?"

"..." Ping'er hesitated for a while, and knew who that person was. He waited for Sister Feng to feel ashamed as if she was watching a joke, coughed, and said with a calm smile: "Grandma asked me to marry this, and I have to give a dowry."

"It's cheap, but you're still a good boy." Wang Xifeng looked at her, thinking of her son, and said, "Go and see if eldest brother has finished school?"

"Big brother is hardworking in his studies and has a clever mind. He will definitely be a Jinshi master in the future, maybe he will be the number one scholar. Grandma's blessing is still to come." Ping'er expressed his feelings.

"Thank you for your good words, I will give you a big red envelope when the time comes." Wang Xifeng smiled and asked her to welcome her elder brother into the house...

******

In the end, Daiyu became a monk and did not marry anyone. She followed Jia Lian and believed in the God of Light. Lin Ruhai was angry with her daughter and Jia Lian for a while, but Daiyu was smart and went into Lin Ruhai's study to talk for an hour. Understanding Daiyu's thoughts, her daughter said that she must either ask for "a couple for life" or become a monk.

Lin Ruhai heard the words and thought about it for a long time. Of course, he knew that no matter how strict the family style of the young masters who are well-matched, the world is like this. If a family does not have a housemate, it will have several aunts when they get married in the future.If you marry Daiyu to the Lin family and promise to marry her alone, after a hundred years as his father, Daiyu's life will be even more difficult. Maybe he will resent his father-in-law for oppressing others, and his daughter's jealous nature .

Jia Lian thought for a long time whether to accept Daiyu as his apprentice.After all, Lin Daiyu is the Crimson Pearl Fairy, and she has registered with Fairy Jing Huan before. If she accepts it, it is inevitable that Fairy Jing Huan will find herself in trouble when she finds out that something is wrong.

But Jia Lian's magic has been practiced almost to a great extent, and he is also planning his way out, and his face is slowly "aging". Now it is not impossible to see the fairies in this world.

Jia Lian felt that he hadn't become a god now, what else was lacking... There is no godhead here, but what if he defeated or killed Fairy Jinghuan? !

Daiyu became a monk, Baoyu finally heard about it, and he was in despair. He already knew at this time that he and his older sisters had grown up, and even Tanchun was married a while ago, and was married by Mrs. Wang to a merchant. For this reason, Aunt Zhao made a fuss, and Huan'er didn't even look good on herself.

One day, he planned to go to the Fashen Temple to meet his younger sister Lin, but just as he went out, he ran into a monk with a scarlet head and a lame Taoist.

...The two were shocked when they saw Baoyu!

Judging by Baoyu's face, there is no line of marriage. Originally, when they came to the capital, they saw that the Rongguo Mansion was changed to the General's Mansion, and the second room was divided into another house, and the girl from the Xue family was married. Come over in a hurry, and when I see Baoyu at this time, there is something strange.

They followed Baoyu to the Fashen Temple, and when they heard Baoyu pestering and shouting "Sister Lin, don't become a monk...go to his house...", the two looked at each other and thought, there is a big trouble!

This, how could this make Fairy Jiangzhu cry...

The lame Taoist and the monk with the scarlet head were in a hurry to report to Fairy Jing Huan.
