The Love of the Red Chamber

"Sister Lin...Sister Lin..."

Daiyu was displeased at being called on the street, and when she looked back, she saw Baoyu chasing after her excitedly, followed by a group of girls and servants.Seeing Baoyu approaching, Yinzhen immediately remembered that Ziluo had reported back that Baoyu wanted to disrespect Daiyu, narrowed his eyes dangerously, and glanced at Ziluo lightly.Ziluo also didn't want to see Baoyu very much, so naturally she understood what her master meant, she nodded slightly, and just as Baoyu was about to approach Daiyu, a wisp of finger wind popped out, Baoyu only felt a sharp pain in her left leg, and then He threw himself on the ground.

Looking at the son-in-law who was screaming in pain on the ground, Yinzhen snorted coldly, took Daiyu and was about to leave.Complaining with this kind of dandy on the street has nothing to do with losing one's status.

A group of girls and servants following up here have already helped Baoyu up.Comforting comfort, rubbing legs rubbing legs.Seeing that Daiyu was about to leave, Baoyu immediately called out again, "Sister Lin, don't go...sister!" Daiyu looked coldly at Baoyu's pampered appearance, and said coldly, "Baoyu, you Be careful with your mouth, who is your younger sister!" Originally, I was thinking that I still had two ties with the Jia family, but today I heard Lin Yu say a lot about the Jia family, and looking at Baoyu's appearance, Daiyu felt an indescribable disgust.Baoyu didn't know Daiyu's heart, he just thought it would be good for this extremely beautiful younger sister to live in his own home. Seeing that she was about to leave, he hurriedly pushed away the girl and servant who was in front of him, and said with a smile: "Sister, you Are you angry? Where do you live now? We are relatives of the family. How about my sister living in our house? I will give my best to my sister. We can live together and play together. Isn’t it better than my sister? Is it much better to live outside alone?"

Daiyu also didn't want to see Baoyu like Baoyu on this busy street.After all, the people who come and go in this inner city are people of status, and naturally there are not a few people who know Yinzhen.In any case, the reputation of the Four Baylor Mansion cannot be swept away.Therefore, he just glanced at Baoyu indifferently, tugged at Yinzhen's sleeve and said, "Fourth brother, let's go." Feeling a penetrating chill crawling up her back, the smile on her face was too stiff to be able to smile anymore, she glanced at Yinzhen with some timidity, Nuonuo said: "Sister, come back with me. This person... so scary..." As he said that, he wanted to reach out his hand quietly to pull Daiyu's clothes.Yinzhen lowered his eyes, hiding the murderous intent in his eyes.Turning around lightly, he took Daiyu to the other side, and with a random wave of his other hand, he actually knocked Baoyu a few feet away, and landed on the group of people behind him.Immediately ouch ouch into a mess.

Daiyu also felt the murderous intent at that moment, raised her head and looked at Yinzhen, but Yinzhen looked at her with clear and gentle eyes, as if nothing happened just now, "Leave him alone, let's go." Daiyu nodded Since she didn't want to cause trouble, Daiyu didn't have the mood to care about Baoyu, so she followed Yinzhen to Sibeile Mansion.

"You stop!"

A girl rushed over angrily and stood in front of the two of them.But it was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl wearing a blue shirt, "You want to leave like this after you hurt someone?" Daiyu was displeased, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the girl in front of her. She remembered that this girl seemed to be Baoyu. The big girl next to him is called Xiren or something, "Then what do you think?" Xiren raised his head proudly and said, "Our second master is the son of the Rongguo Mansion, so he still doesn't apologize!" Daiyu sneered and let go of Yinzhen She stepped forward and said coldly: "Then do you know who I am?" Xiren paused, of course she knew who Daiyu was, Heshuo Gege who was granted by the emperor.It's just that this Xiren has always been loved by Mrs. Wang, and she often waits in front of her. Hearing Mrs. Wang's words, she thinks that Daiyu is just an orphan who was fostered in the capital.She didn't take her identity seriously, but she was taken aback by Daiyu's honest question, and looked at Yinzhen with a cold face, feeling a little scared in her heart.

Yinzhen glanced at the group of people impatiently, and said with a sneer: "I don't know, a servant from the Duke's mansion dares to block my way. That Jia Baoyu and this servant each beat [-] big boards, and the rest He's twenty big. After the beating, I throw it back to Jia's mansion, and tell Jia Zheng to discipline his son well, so I won't blame him for being cruel next time he commits a crime!"

"Yes!" Zi Luo answered quickly and loudly, and there was still a bit of excitement in her voice.It caused Zi Yin to give her a weird look.Watching Daiyu and Yinzhen leave, Ziluo rubbed her chin excitedly and looked at Baoyu and Xiren, the weird look in her eyes made the two of them shudder, and carefully looked at the strange woman in front of them.Ziyin shook her head, regardless of herself, she rushed up in the direction where Yinzhen and Daiyu left.Only Ziluo was left smiling and waving her hand and said: "Come on, I'm tied to the girl." In the crowd, a few people who had been following behind Yinzhen and the others flashed out in the uniform of the guards of Sibeile Mansion. , pointed to a few people neatly, tied them into a ball and led them to the opposite direction.

In Jia's mansion, at this time, Jia's mother's room was full of warmth and harmony, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.Outside the door, a young servant called out from a distance, "Second Master Bao is injured... Second Master Bao is injured!" When Jia Mu heard this, her heart trembled, and she immediately stood up holding Yuanyang's hand. He got up and shouted angrily to the outside: "What's the matter? You haven't come in to explain clearly!" A young man came in, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Old lady, madam, Second Master Bao was beaten outside!"

What? !Jia's mother felt dizzy, and quickly steadied herself and said, "Baoyu has so many servants around him, why was he beaten up? It would be better if all these useless ones were beaten out!" The young man said, "Old lady The maids and servants who followed Bao Erye were beaten all over." Mrs. Wang burst into tears when she heard this, "It's really a crime! My Baoyu is so good, who dares to beat him!" Standing in front of Wang An eleven or twelve-year-old girl next to Madam supported Madam Wang and said, "Auntie, let's go see how brother Bao is hurt." Madam Wang came back to her senses and said quickly: "Yes, come on!" Go and see Baoyu, do you know if you have invited a doctor?" The girl pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, there is nothing wrong with Brother Bao? None of those servants are ignorant, how come they don't know to call a doctor?" Only then did Mrs. Wang feel a little comforted, and she turned around and said to the woman behind her, "My sister just came here today, let's take a rest first. I'll go and see Baoyu." Then she told Jia Mu and was about to go Baoyu's residence.Mother Jia couldn't wait here to wait for the news, she held Yuanyang's hand and said, "I'll go and have a look too."

A group of people went in a mighty way, Tanchun sisters stayed at the end, Tanchun looked at the girl beside Mrs. Wang fascinated, turned to Xichun Yingchun and said: "Second sister, fourth sister, let's go too." Xichun frowned in displeasure, "It must have provoked someone outside and got beaten up, Baoyu is not young, and she doesn't know dignity at all." Tanchun lowered his face and said displeasedly "Fourth sister, Baoyu is your elder brother after all. Now that someone beats you up, why don't you go and see what you are talking about? It's a bit cold." Xichun was angry, and sneered: "I'm a cold, but I don't know how many people really went to see him. Since they are brothers, why didn't anyone see him when Huan'er was sick?"

"You!" Tan Chun blushed, turned around and walked away.Yingchun looked at Xichun's stubborn and indifferent appearance, then looked at Tanchun's angry back, and sighed faintly, "It's not easy for her, why are you angry with her. Let's go and see Baoyu. Anyway, old lady It's better for face." Xichun snorted lightly, and then let Yingchun drag her away.

As soon as he entered the courtyard where Baoyu lived, he heard screams coming from inside.Mrs. Wang hurriedly stepped in, and saw Baoyu lying on the bed and the doctor was giving him medicine, only to hear him wailing incessantly, and tears streaming down his face in pain.Mrs. Wang felt a pain in her heart, and rushed over quickly, her mouth also yelling dearly, "Baoyu, Baoyu, who hurt you so badly?! My poor Baoyu..." Jiamu entered the door Seeing Baoyu's miserable state, she kept wiping away her tears, but after all she was much calmer than Mrs. Wang, and she almost figured it out just now, the status of the person who dared to beat Baoyu so blatantly was definitely higher than that of Jia. The home is only high but not low.

"Wuuu... Sister Lin, old ancestor, Baoyu wants Sister Lin..."

Jia Mu's eyes jumped, could it be that this matter has something to do with Yu'er?After carefully instructing Mrs. Wang to take good care of Baoyu, watching the medicine, she turned around and went to the flower hall outside, while telling Zijuan behind her, "Bring all the maids around Baoyu here."

Because it was inconvenient for her daughter's house to enter the inner room, Xichun and others stayed in the flower hall at this time, and Sister Feng, who was still reconciling accounts, hurried over after hearing the news.At this time, the small flower hall was full of people again.After a while, the four big girls in front of Baoyu, Xiren Qingwen, Sheyue Qiuwen, were all brought over, and knelt down on the ground to pay their respects.It's a pity that Xiren's [-]-ban fight would have killed him almost half of his life. Qingwen and the others were giving medicine, but they heard Jiamu pass them on, so they had to drag their painful body over again. Kneel down and get tired and unable to get up.Yingchun and the others only saw blood stains on the skirt behind her, which was miserable.

"Which of you went out with Baoyu today?"

Xiren struggled and said, "Go back to the old lady, it's Xiren." Jia Mu's natural way is Xiren, and she waited for her coldly and said, "What a good thing you did to make Baoyu hurt like that?" De must hastily shook his head and said: "Old lady Mingjian, don't care about the attack. Yes... the second master met Miss Lin on the street, and the second master came up to say hello when he was happy. I didn't expect... Miss Lin would be indiscriminate. Just order someone to hurt us all!" Xiren hastily recounted what happened on the street again, blaming Daiyu for all the faults, but never mentioned that he offended Yinzhen which led to this good meal Hit thing.

Mother Jia lived for dozens of years, how could she be so easily bluffed by attackers.However, Daiyu was also a little brooding about seeing Baoyu being beaten but failing to save her, and her face was even worse.Mrs. Wang, who was inside, heard what the attacker said, and rushed out angrily, crying and fell in front of Jia Mu, "Old lady, you have to make decisions for Baoyu. The eldest girl is really cruel, anyway. She is also a family member, and we have never treated her badly, but she treats Baoyu like this...my poor Baoyu..." Seeing Mrs. Wang's loss of composure, Mother Jia said displeasedly: "Okay , and there are guests here, how does the younger generation look like? How is Baoyu injured?" Mrs. Wang wiped her tears, stood up and said: "The doctor said that the injury is not too serious, and it will be fine after ten and a half months. Then Mother Jia nodded reassuringly, thinking in her heart that Yu'er is still facing the Jia family, you know, if you really hit thirty big boards firmly, with Baoyu's body, not to mention ten days and a half months, just one day Whether it will be better in two months is another matter.

"Old lady, madam."

A little maid came in. Such a big incident had just happened at home, and the maids were all a little timid, fearing that something would go wrong and set the master on fire so that they would have a good meal.Jia's mother squinted her eyes and did not speak. The mandarin duck beside her said to the girl: "If you have something to do, report it quickly." The little girl said: "The girl who just sent the second master back is still outside the courtyard. She said... See you, Master." Mrs. Wang was puzzled and said: "What girl? Why didn't anyone report it?" The attacker lay on the ground and said bitterly: "Mrs. Hui, the girl next to Miss Lin came to our house last time. It seems to be called Ziluo or something? She was the one who beat the second master!" Mrs. Wang's complexion sank, and she said with hatred: "She still came here! Okay, let her come in!" Mrs. Wang was determined to To avenge Aiko.

Ziluo walked in leisurely, like strolling in a garden, paying attention to all the ladies in this room.Walking up to Xiren's side, he kicked Xiren casually with his toes, and kicked Xiren until he passed out with a muffled grunt.Qingwen and others who were kneeling on one side saw Jia's mother waving, and then hurriedly helped Xiren down.

"Young lady is someone next to Yu'er, right?" Jiamu sat up straight and looked at Ziluo.

Ziluo smiled, "Back to the old lady, Ziluo, the maidservant, who is next to Shuo Gege, is responsible for Gege's safety." Mrs. Wang stared at Ziluo, and hurriedly said: "You are just the girl next to the big girl. , why beat Baoyu? Are there any rules?!" Rules?Ziluo blinked her eyes, "A mere little girl in your mansion is just a servant of the coated servants, but she dared to openly offend He Shuogege and Sibeile, but she didn't know... What kind of rules is this?" The servant of the coated slave means that your Jia family is still a coated slave even if you are rich.Offend Heshuogege and Sibaile? !This sentence hit Jiamu's head with a heavy weight.She is not afraid of Daiyu, but this Sibeile, who doesn't know the famous cold-hearted and cold-faced Baylor, Yuan Chun has not seen the slightest favor in Sibeile's mansion for several years, let alone Jiahui Jia's family.How could Baoyu offend him? !

Seeing Jiamu's terrified face, Ziluo smiled slightly, and said, "I don't know if Mr. Zheng is there? Fourth Master has a few words for your slaves to bring to Mr. Zheng." How could Mrs. Jia care about Baoyu's beating, and she was a little embarrassed. He said: "Here, the master is not in the mansion first, I wonder if we can convey it?" Ziluo thought for a while, then nodded and said: "It's not a big deal, the fourth master said, please take good care of your mansion. Second master, if it falls into our master's hands again, don't be surprised—you are cruel!" After speaking, she smiled coldly, but her pretty face couldn't imitate Yin Zhen's chill, so she had to give up.Satisfied with admiring the different dark colors of the people in the room, Zi Luo waved her sleeves and left.Before leaving, he casually glanced at the ground in the inner room where Baoyu's wailing kept coming out, a trace of sarcasm flitted across his lips.If you really think that the thirty boards of the secret guards of the Four Baylor Mansion are so easy, then you are completely wrong.The girl looked at the blood dripping, in fact, the injury was not serious, it was just a flesh injury, and it would be fine if the wound stuttered after lying down for ten and a half months.That Jia Baoyu didn't seem to have hurt any flesh, but it was an internal injury.If you don't take good care of it, you will feel better after three to five months.

Not to mention the scene of Baoyu's beating at Jia's house, Mrs. Wang originally wanted to hide it from Jia Zheng, but unexpectedly, Jia Zheng heard the news as soon as he came back, and was so angry that he Baoyu dragged her up and beat her up, and this time her injuries were compounded, and Baoyu fainted from the sudden pain.Mrs. Wang naturally made another fuss, and Jia Zheng was so irritable that he turned around and went out to Aunt Zhao's room.

Two days later, when Baoyu recovered from her injury, Mrs. Wang was free to talk to her own sister.This Mrs. Wang Xue is the younger sister of Mrs. Wang's mother and compatriots. She married the Xue family, a wealthy businessman in Jinling. Two years ago, Master Xue went there.She was left with her son Xue Pan and daughter Baochai to manage Nuoda's family business.This Xue Pan has not been a troublemaker since he was a child.The previous one beat someone to death in order to fight over a woman. Although Mrs. Wang entrusted someone to suppress this matter, after all Jinling is not good to stay anymore. It happens that my younger sister Xue Baochai is also 12 years old, so she wants to escape to Beijing. Let's see if I can find a chance to enter the palace.Who knew that when the first one came, something happened to Baoyu before he had said a word.

"My sister is doing well now." Looking at the magnificence of the Jia family's servants and maidservants, Wang Xue said with some envy and some compliments.Although the Xue family claims to be as pearls as earth and gold as iron, they are businessmen after all, rich but not noble.How can there be a family like Jia's.Mrs. Wang looked at her sister's envious eyes with some complacency, and said lightly: "It's not bad. I only have one son and one daughter under my knees. Baoyu is not sensible. Yuanchun married into the Sibeile Mansion again. It has been many years since I can't do it." I've seen you once. I'm so happy that my younger sister and children are by my side." In fact, Yuan Chun was not a dowry word, but was given to Yinzhen by the crown prince as a gift.The girl Xue Baochai who was sitting on the side looked at Mrs. Wang with a smile and said: "Auntie can't say that, Sibeile is the son of the current emperor, and the eldest sister will definitely be rich and powerful in the future."

Mrs. Wang was very pleased when she heard Baochai's words, but she still shook her head and sighed: "What's the use of entering the fourth master's house? Now that the fourth master is fascinated by a vixen, how can I remember you?" Sister." Mrs. Wang, who read every time Yuan Chun quietly sent back the news from the house, gritted her teeth.Baochai was taken aback, and said: "Seeing that all the sisters in the mansion are outstanding, the elder sister must be even more outstanding. How could the fourth master wronged the elder sister?" Baochai thought of Ziluo he saw two days ago, It's just a maid, but the imposing manner standing in that hall is indeed more like a master than these ladies, and I can't help but envy the wealth of the prince's family.Even if the girl is like this, what is it like to be the master but don't know?

"Who is Miss Lin that my sister mentioned? Is it Miss Min's daughter?" Xue Wang asked curiously.

Mrs. Wang snorted, "Who else is there besides her daughter? She's just an orphan who lives in someone else's house. She's as proud as her mother, how dare you give me shame!" Speaking of Daiyu, Mrs. Wang secretly hated her.Baochai asked curiously: "I heard that Ziluo called her Heshuogege?" Mrs. Wang nodded and said: "That girl's father is now the governor of Liangjiang, and somehow she has won the emperor's favor. Seal He Shuo Gege, and now live in Sibeile's house." Baochai said with a smile: "So, don't you just want her to help your elder sister?" Mrs. Wang shook her head and sighed: "How can she help you grow up?" elder sister?"

Baochai said with a smile: "He is still the granddaughter of the old lady, and the bond of flesh and blood cannot be broken. Auntie might as well treat her better now, but she is just a little girl. It is not auntie who decides what will happen then. So auntie also I can gain a reputation for being a virtuous person." Mrs. Wang was very disgusted with Daiyu and said, "It's just a little goblin, how can I treat her well? Maybe she doesn't appreciate it." Baochai pursed her lips properly, "Auntie, just be It’s just a matter of giving her something to win her over. Is it possible that you still have to spend your heart and soul? But if you ask the old lady to come forward and ask her to speak for the eldest sister, she will not be able to refuse."

She bowed her head and thought for a while, Madam Wang nodded and said, "Chai'er is right. Let's do as you said."

Baochai was overjoyed, and said, "We brought back a lot of things from Jinling, why don't we give some to Miss Lin." When Mrs. Wang heard that she didn't need to offer her own gifts to please Daiyu, she was naturally more happy, and she became closer to Baochai up.Holding Baochai in his arms, he said, "Sure enough, she is a good child. My sister is so lucky." Xue Wang said with a smile, "She is better than her brother." Baochai said with a modest smile, "Auntie praised me. Baochai is ashamed. Auntie, have you figured out who to give the gift to?" Mrs. Wang said indifferently, "Just send a woman." Baochai shook her head and said, "I'm afraid that He Shuogege will think we are not dignified enough. , a mother-in-law might not even be able to enter the Sibeile Mansion."

"What does the hairpin mean?"

Baochai said: "Why don't you invite a few younger sisters to come and say that you have made amends for what happened yesterday. I think the old lady can live well there. Second, the sisters can go and see the elder sister." When Madam thought about it, Baochai was really thoughtful, even the old lady thought of it, nodded, looked at Baochai again and said, "I see that those girls are not as stable as Chai'er. Why don't you go with them Go and help your aunt to see if your eldest sister is suffering now." These words hit Xue Baochai's heart, and she was overjoyed, but she did not reveal anything on her face, and said politely: "Yes. Take the words to Big Sister."

But the next day, Mother Jia listened to Mrs. Wang's words, thinking that this matter must not let Daiyu stay away from Jia's house, and immediately agreed with Mrs. Wang's idea.He also took a few good things from his body and sent them over together.Mrs. Wang was very jealous.He was busy preparing the greeting card and ordered someone to send it to Sibeile Mansion. While asking Sister Sanchun and Sister Feng to prepare, he saw that there was an extra Xue Baochai who looked at her thoughtfully, but didn't say anything. A group of people who wanted to go and those who didn't want to go all wobbled to Sibeile Mansion.
