Red Mansion: No Empty House Fight

Although Lin Qi loves plum blossoms, she really doesn't want to have more contact with Jia Zhen from the East Mansion.Lin Hai is now the censor of Yanyan, and as the heir of the Lin family, if Jia Zhen introduces him to an unwilling prince or the like, he will be chasing him to death.Therefore, after receiving Dongfu's post, he was unwilling to go, so he found an excuse to go out and visit the bookstore early in the morning.

Jia Baoyu searched around the East Mansion but couldn't find Lin Qi, and suddenly lost all character.Everyone thought he was sleepy, so they asked Jia Rong's daughter-in-law Qin Keqing to lead him to find a room to rest for a while.

Everyone embraced Baoyu and went to an upper room. On the wall was a "picture of burning quinoa", and there was a couplet that read "An insight into the world is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is the article".Baoyu looked at it and remained silent for a long time. After dismissing the boys and girls around him, she lay on the bed with her clothes and fell asleep slowly.It seems like a dream, but it is too empty to dream of entering a fairyland.

This side of Jia Baoyu's soul is too empty, and Lin Qi on the other side wandered back because she didn't see the book she wanted in the bookstore, and met a pair of grandparents and grandchildren at the door—Grandma Liu and Ban'er were taken away. Zhou Rui's family led them to the inner courtyard to meet Wang Xifeng.

Because of the news that the Wang family sold the sacrifice land, the Xue family also left the Rongguo Mansion. Now Zhou Rui's family is not as respectable as before, and they are still polite to the grandparents and grandchildren.Since Lin Qi had nothing to do, she joined in the fun and went to meet Wang Xifeng.This is the number one loyal person in the Dream of the Red Chamber!

In the end, because of Lin Qi's face, Wang Xifeng gave Grandma Liu 70 taels of silver without mentioning it. Lin Qi added another 30 taels, and personally sent the grandparents and grandchildren out.

"Don't dare to bother the man to send us two." Grandma Liu saw that even Wang Xifeng was flattering Lin Qi, so she naturally guessed that Lin Qi's status should be unusual, so how dare she bother her.

Lin Qi didn't care about pulling the board and walked towards the gate: "As an old relative, if there is a disaster, it's okay for us to help. But how can the junior stay in the house and let the elder leave by himself?" When he reached the gate, he sent someone Hired a carriage, "Grandma, don't refuse, you must know that if you are alone, it's fine, but after all, there are foreign objects on your body, it's safer to hire a carriage, and it won't prevent my nephew from walking back again, right?"

Grandma Liu touched the bundle she was holding in her hand, and knew that it was Lin Qi's kindness, so she nodded and agreed, thanking her a thousand times in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh that this is the demeanor of a big family. ,

After Lin Qi saw off Grandma Liu and was going back to Lixiangyuan, she suddenly remembered that today happened to be Jia Baoyu's first test of Yunyuqing.My heart was suddenly stagnant, and I didn't know why, so I walked quickly through Rongning Street and entered Ningguo Mansion.

He originally thought that Jia Baoyu was sleeping in Qin Keqing's bedroom as in the original novel, but he was led by the boy to a room that must not be a woman's dormitory.

After entering the door, I just heard the attacker ask "what's the matter".Lin Qi was furious in her heart, she shook her hand and left, and went back to Lixiangyuan by herself without anyone knowing.

After dinner in the evening, Lin Qi smiled wryly for a long time, and suddenly knew the reason for her various anomalies, so she went back to Jia Mu again, in order to stop Jia Baoyu and Xi Ren's love affair.

It was only when he reached the outside of Jia Baoyu's residence that he heard a "bang", and quickly walked a few steps into the house.But I saw Jia Baoyu sitting on the bed wearing a middle coat, and there was another set of middle clothes on the ground.And Xiren also fell to the ground clutching his stomach, and there was a conspicuous shoe print on his light-colored clothes.

"Baoyu!" This was the first time Lin Qi called Jia Baoyu's name instead of calling him "cousin".This cry made Jia Baoyu startled. He glanced at Xiren and then at the belt of his jacket that he hadn't fastened yet. Jia Baoyu's expression suddenly became terrified: "Cousin! No... I No... I'm not..."

Lin Qi didn't speak, and sighed, went up to tie Jia Baoyu's jacket belt, and put on another dress, but Jia Baoyu held down his hand: "Cousin, don't talk! I didn't do anything! I just asked her to change my clothes, nothing else! Don't think too much!"

"What am I thinking about?" Lin Qi raised her eyebrows and looked at Jia Baoyu, "The attacker next to my cousin is Qingwen Sheyueqiuwen, what am I thinking about?"

"...you called me Baoyu just now..." Jia Baoyu held back for a long time, and finally said this aggrieved sentence.Lin Qi couldn't help complaining about Jia Baoyu's point in her heart, it was really crooked.It's just that he also knew that just after Jia Baoyu explained it, he felt that the matter was clear, so he went astray.After all, Jia Baoyu's world is mostly black and white.

"If you don't like it, how about I send them away tomorrow?"

"Don't! What kind of person am I? I'm jealous like a group of girls? You should also know what the old lady and the second aunt are doing to arrange them by your side. Think about the consequences!" Lin Qi pinched Jia Baoyu His cheeks twitched, and he couldn't help but marvel at the latter's good touch.

The attacker on the ground had long since passed the pain, and changed from lying curled up to kneeling and kowtowing.Listening to the conversation between the two standing by the bed, she felt that she might not be able to stay.

It's just that Baoyu is soft-hearted after all. After asking Lin Qi, Xiren was left behind.From then on, Xiren put away his small thoughts, but he really became a "virtuous person" and managed all kinds of things around Baoyu in an orderly manner.

Since then, Baoyu and Lin Qi have liked to stay together and do things more and more.Baoyu, like the original book, began to make all kinds of rouge.Lin Qi felt that if this thing was done well, it would be a proper cornucopia.After all, women's money is the best to earn, and the rouge and powder cream made by Baoyu are also pre-determined, and they are made by the great-grandson of the government, so they naturally have more "elegant" and "artistic conception" meanings. Absolutely no shortage.

Therefore, they specially set aside a good-looking shop in the outer city of the Lin family, and brought Daiyu to practice how to manage their shop, and the three of them made some tricks.In the daily relationship, Daiyu looked at the different atmosphere of her brother and cousin from the past, and felt a little confused and a little clear.In the end, I also felt that this was good, so I didn't waste my thoughts.

When Jia Zheng found out about it, at first he felt that the two of them were not doing their job properly, and being a businessman was a lowly thing. Since Lin Qi and Baoyu had already obtained the fame of scholars, they should concentrate on studying instead of engaging in such heresies.Although later I learned that everything in the shop was mostly used by Daiyu as a trainer to take care of the housework as the mistress in the future, but she still didn't like it, so she called the two of them to talk.

Lin Qi knew what Jia Zheng was going to say without having to ask Jia Zheng, and immediately handed over a new thing that he and Baoyu had made recently: "Second uncle, this is an ink block that my nephew made with my cousin recently. It sold much better on the Internet. It’s just that my father wrote to say that the heat is still worse than what he made back then.”

"Oh? Ruhai also made ink back then?" Jia Zheng picked up the ink stick in his hand and looked at it. It was not much different from the one he used in his daily life.

Lin Qi nodded: "Because of the ancestors in the family, there are many recipes. Some are for making incense, some are for brewing wine, and some are for frying tea. What's the use of a family like ours if we just read some books like a poor family ?”

He also said: "My younger sister is also making some Xue Taojian recently. It is also an elegant thing to exchange gifts with a few sisters in the future."

Jia Zheng stroked his beard and thought for a while, and his face changed for the better.What he pursued wholeheartedly was elegant things, and now his son made something of good quality and made a name for himself, which was considered a face for him.He said to the two of them, "Don't give up halfway", "Don't delay your serious study", etc., and then sent them away.

Apart from the door, Jia Baoyu thought over what Lin Qi said just now, and murmured, "Sure enough, I need a nice name", and realized again.Smiling again at Lin Qi: "My cousin's words are full of truth. It really means that 'the knowledge of the world is knowledge, and the understanding of human feelings is the article'."

Lin Qi felt a little uneasy when she heard Baoyu say this.What he was most afraid of was that Baoyu would look at him differently because what he said and what he did inspired Baoyu.If one day, Baoyu grows up to the point where he doesn't need to talk and do things for advice, how will he deal with himself?How will Baoyu change for him?

But looking forward and looking backward is really not in Lin Qi's character, and such uneasiness only stayed for a moment before being forgotten by him.Thinking that the Lin family's imperial residence will be taken back in a year or two, and there is another precious jade in Beijing, then the plan to settle in Gusu far away from the rivers and lakes will be impossible, and it is time to prepare now.

"Baoyu, I want to buy another house in central Beijing. I'm afraid the inner city won't work, so it's fine to choose a place close to the inner city in the outer city. You want to pick a place with me and see how we can rest?"

When Jia Baoyu heard it, he blushed for some reason, and finally nodded, and together with Lin Qi, he bought a big five-year-old house close to the inner city, and together with Lin Qi, he and Lin Qi bought all the houses in the yard. The places were carefully arranged, and together with Lin Qi, they named the places and inscribed them.After that, whenever the two of them go out late, they will stay here.

Wang was finally released before the New Year.It's just that after that, all the keys to the cards were handed over, and the people were moved out of the Rongxi Hall, and the owner went to the big courtyard to the south.Because Jia Zheng was bored, he often stayed at Aunt Zhao's place, and the Rongxi Hall gradually lost its master.

The life of Jia's family is so unsalty.Baoyu has improved a lot in learning, and Lin Qi has also found her own future path. It is difficult for people to see that it is the hand of a teenage boy.

Two years later, at the end of winter, Lin Hai sent a letter saying that he was seriously ill and wanted to take Daiyu and Lin Qi back to the south.Baoyu didn't want to give up Lin Qi, and after all he had learned the world, he didn't make a lot of trouble. He just told Lin Qi to write frequently.

Jia Lian took Daiyu Linqi back to Yangzhou, and didn't say much about the itinerary along the way, but after arriving in Yangzhou, he didn't expect that there were two marriage contracts waiting for him.

Lin Hai began to pay attention to Daiyu's marriage five or six years ago, and because of Lin Qi's various performances, he also found a good marriage for Lin Qi.The one who was looking for Daiyu was the second son of the dean of the famous Qingshan Academy in the south of the Yangtze River.In Lin Qi's opinion, this marriage is also very good, and the other party's family style and character are not bad, so it is naturally a good match.

But the one who was looking for Lin Qi was the granddaughter of a Hanlin in Beijing, whose father was the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, a proper candidate for the Minister of Rites.Also, the Ministry of Rites is originally a place like clear water, and there is no other such as the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Officials, which are the central battlefields for court struggles for succession. If Lin Qi is still in her original body, it will naturally be an excellent marriage.

Lin Qi wanted to sneer and sigh at the same time.After questioning Lin Hai, he learned that Daiyu's marriage had already been settled by an official deed, while his own marriage was only a verbal agreement made by correspondence. Real place.

After more than half a year passed, Lin Hai's health became worse and worse, so he had to go to Zhezi to beg for the bones, and asked someone to take over the post of patrolling salt censor.Lin Qi also took this opportunity to point out that it was inappropriate to live in the official residence after the new censor arrived, and began to sort out the affairs of the Lin family.

Jia Lian felt that with his own status, let alone living in the official residence together, it would be fine to ask the other party to find another place.I also felt that what Lin Qi said about housework was just packing things, and because Lin Qi asked about some trivial matters that required how many boxes and cars to use, it was just a gesture of helping.But he didn't know that Lin Qi took this opportunity to send people to send a large part of the Lin family's calligraphy, paintings, books, antiques, and other things that he and Daiyu used frequently to the big Wujin house he bought in the capital.

When the new Xunyan Yushi arrived and handed over his position and mansion, the Lin family moved into a separate courtyard in the dowry of the previous Lin family mistresses.Looking at the beautiful other courtyard, Jia Lian lamented the richness of the Lin family, and agreed with Jia Shishi's words in his heart.Thinking of Wang's explanation before he left to teach him in the Buddhist hall of the South Courtyard, his mind suddenly moved.

Lin Qi sneered, whether she was raised stupid or really stupid, to listen to a woman's words and seek the property of the descendants of Liehou.Immediately, Lin Hai took over the matter of donating the library in Yangzhou, and started to do it neatly.

On the morning of the third day of September, Lin Hai came back to his light and called Lin Qi Daiyu to her, and told her about their future marriage arrangements.Lin Qi waited for Lin Hai and Daiyu to finish talking, then sent Daiyu to guard the door, and sat in front of Lin Hai's bed by herself: "Father, I actually remember everything."

In a word, Lin Hai was dumbfounded.

"Father, don't worry. Although I resent Mrs. Jia and you, as well as my fourth uncle and aunt, I have never thought of revenge. It's just that I can't follow the marriage that my father made for me. It's just because I was hurt in the early years. The body is a hindrance to offspring. Therefore, in the future, I will let Daiyu marry and have a son, and the second son will return to the Lin family to inherit the incense."

"You...you..." Lin Hai was also shocked, and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"Daiyu is a good sister, and she really regards me as her own brother in her heart. She treats me with sincerity, and I will repay her with sincerity. I will do my best to keep her safe."

After hearing this, Lin Hai stared at Lin Qi for a while, nodded slowly, and finally closed his eyes.Lin Qi let out a long sigh, and asked Daiyu to come in and kowtow for the last time.

After July [-]th, the brothers and sisters helped the spirits back to their hometowns.In the Gusu tribe, Lin Qi once again met the four-bedroom couple who adopted her original body.The two of them didn't dare to accept Lin Qi's salute when they saw Lin Qi. After hesitating to speak, they retreated to the back of the crowd.After the hundred days of filial piety, Lin Qi and Dai Yu and Jia Lian returned to Beijing.

When I came to the capital, I didn't hear about Yuan Chuncai of the Jia family choosing Fengzao Palace.After the siblings returned to Rongguo Mansion, greeted the elders and returned to Lixiangyuan, Jia Baoyu came.

Jia Baoyu was very happy because of Lin Qi's return, so he pulled Lin Qi to tell about his experience during this period: "...I only know now that although some people are beautiful in appearance, they are heartless inside!" So he told Lin Qi Qin Zhong and Zhizhi said, "It's a good thing I thought he was a good person and recommended him to study at the place where my own sister's coffin rested. But now that he can't get out of bed, I feel soft-hearted and find A good doctor went to treat him. I went to see him the day before yesterday, and I have some repentance."

"This kind of messy thing is worth talking about!" Lin Qi sorted out her belongings and chatted with Baoyu again and again, and finally put a box of books in front of Baoyu, "This is the note left by my father back then. If you copy it, there will be benefits."

Because Jia Zheng saw that Baoyu was making progress, he became more and more urgent, and he insisted that Baoyu participate in the Qiuwei one year later.It is hard to find a good teacher, so Baoyu is quite tired from studying hard every day, but no one agrees to let him find an academy to study away from home.Lin Qi's box of books is just in time for Baoyu who has entered a bottleneck.

Baoyu pulled Lin Qi tired and crooked and didn't say a word, just looked at Lin Qi with a smirk, staring at Lin Qi into anger, gave Baoyu an elbow, and then told about his engagement, and said that he was going to withdraw the engagement tomorrow .

Baoyu thought for a while, then nodded: "Daughter's family..." "Stop!" Lin Qi covered her mouth as soon as she started, "I know your temperament of pity and jade, I don't care about it. You just remember, even women I can write the words "I heard that you have two opinions, and you have to break up with you", and I, Lin Qi, will not be worse than a woman's heart! I can't say anything like "One life is a couple", as long as you think about it How to deal with the second uncle, the second aunt and the old lady!"

Baoyu's expression turned serious when he heard this, and then he smiled brightly, which almost dazzled Lin Qi's eyes.

Jia Lian only brought back 10,000+ private property from the Lin family. Although Jia Shi and Wang did not believe that this was all the property of the Lin family, they still took it.In the evening, Yuanyang told Xiren about this matter. Baoyu knew about it, and there was another silence, and a thought became more and more firm in her heart.

In the evening of the next day, Lin Qi invited someone to the teahouse on the way to the Yamen with the father and son who had not yet been engaged to him but only verbal agreement, and invited him to the teahouse: "I should have visited at the door, but because I have a filial piety, I dare not rush to the house and the women's family. Make this move."

When people saw that Lin Qi was respectful, they were very satisfied.

Lin Qi didn't exchange many pleasantries, so she told others about the fact that she had suffered a fundamental loss and that her children's difficult intercourse was hindered.In order to get the family to agree once in a while, Lin Qi also made her situation many times more serious.Originally, it was only difficult for the heirs. If the family still kept their promise and married their daughter to him, then he would be in a difficult position.Simply add a "intercourse hindrance" directly.

Sure enough, when they heard that his son was having a hard time, the father and son still had an expression of "it doesn't matter", but when Lin Qi said the second half of the sentence, their expressions became ugly.

The father and son looked at Lin Qi from head to toe, and from foot to back, but they still didn't dare to take the risk: "What did my nephew say? If it's a dishonest person, my daughter will regret it for the rest of her life. God knows this kind nephew's intentions, and no one else knows about it." The other party also added this sentence for the sake of Lin Qi's reputation.

Hearing what his son said, Old Hanlin also sighed: such a child with good morals and knowledge, how could he... Sigh!It's all life!

Therefore, Lin Qi's marriage was resolved satisfactorily, but Lin Qi's reputation was not damaged at all.

After solving the foreign affairs, Lin Qi and Daiyu started their filial piety again.Time flies, and not long after the new year, Baoyu participated in the Qiu Wei, but he still failed.

Jia Zheng frowned every day, so Jia Shishi protected Baoyu and didn't let him say: "How old is he! It's just a test! It's too late to wait another three years." Therefore, people in the mansion were not allowed to mention it. The matter of the imperial examination.

Baoyu hid in Lixiangyuan to try to be quiet, but Lin Qi felt that there were other reasons for Baoyu's failure.In the end, Baoyu really told the truth: "I'm afraid that if I win the Juren, my parents will definitely give me an engagement. I can't control myself now, so it's better not to win. Therefore, I haven't answered all the last questions."

After Lin Qi heard this, she felt both happy and amused, and finally didn't say much, but just paid more attention to painting.

In the blink of an eye, another 27 months passed, and the brothers and sisters of the Lin family gave up their filial piety.In another two months, Daiyu and Ji, Lin Qi sent a letter back to Yangzhou, and contacted the mountain chief to discuss marriage.The next day, Lin Qi asked Jia's mother to resign.

Naturally, Mother Jia did not allow it, and the reason was very good: "You two little brothers and sisters live in the mansion and there is still a caretaker. Why don't you live alone, and I don't know what to do!"

"Because my younger sister is getting married soon, my father arranged a marriage for my younger sister in the early years, and now it's time to prepare. I can't say that my younger sister married from the Jia family when she got married, so where are the ancestors of my Lin family?" Lin Lin Qi has also been a rookie in the painting circle these years, with popularity and fame, and her own network of contacts has also been initially established, so she naturally has some confidence in speaking.

When Jia Shishi heard this, he was startled: "When did your father make the marriage? Baoyu..."

"Old Madam!" Lin Qi interrupted Jia Shishi.No matter how close he is with Baoyu, Daiyu's reputation must not be stained, so Jia Shishi must not be allowed to say anything out of line.

Seeing Lin Qi's sullen face and menacing eyes, Jia Shi's heart trembled.Back then, this boy who talked and cared about her feelings and anger had already become so powerful!After a long while, he said angrily: "If the guest wants to leave, I can't keep it. Please feel free!" In one sentence, all the blood and family ties were wiped out.
