The mother-in-law realized that she had said something wrong, covered her mouth and hurried away.Aunt Xue turned to ask other people, but everyone kept silent, no matter how much money they stuffed, they couldn't pry their mouths open.

Aunt Xue was flustered, and she started to go to the room, but was stopped by some girls. After thinking about it for a while, she went to the old lady again, but was stopped again, so she had to rush towards the ancestral hall. This time it was even worse. The sturdy guard stood at the door, and when he saw someone coming, he stomped the stick in his hand as a warning.

"Where is my sister? Is she really locked in? I want to see my sister! What has she done so badly that your Jia family wants to treat her like this?" Aunt Xue didn't dare to approach, and stood not far away pointing at the sky. Xue Baochai wanted to stop him, but was pushed aside by his brother.

When the two firecrackers get together, they are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and the momentum will become louder and louder.

"Auntie, stop making trouble!" Wang Xifeng rushed over and sternly stopped.

"Sister Feng, you are finally here. I only went out for a while, why did I come back like this? What did my sister do wrong?" Although Aunt Xue has no brains, she has keen senses and always feels that this matter is not trivial. , so I feel very flustered.

"This is a family matter of the Jia family. It has nothing to do with you. Don't ask any more questions. It's getting late, go back and let my aunt practice with peace of mind." Wang Xifeng clasped her wrist, secretly exerting force.

Aunt Xue was throbbing with pain and shouted unconvinced, "Where's the elder brother? Why don't you send someone back to find the elder brother? The daughter of my Wang family can't be spoiled by just anyone! Neither can the Jia family!"

"Uncle has been here before, without him, Auntie would not be able to finish with 'clear repair'! Auntie, you don't care about this matter, you can't do it either!" Wang Xifeng warned sharply.

It is rare to see Sister Feng in such an angry and heart-wrenching appearance, Aunt Xue's heart is trembling, and a lot of timidity has already sprouted.Seeing this, Xue Pan immediately calmed down.Xue Baochai hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, dragged the two of them back to Lixiangyuan, and gave Wang Xifeng some good things to make amends.

After swaying on the kang for a while, Aunt Xue finally regained her strength, patted her and said, "No, I must find out about this matter! It's so good, how can you just shut it down, and depending on the situation, you plan to shut it down for a lifetime." What about Baoyu? My son, your selection and marriage are also gone!"

Xue Baochai frowned when she heard the words, and murmured, "Mother, wait a moment, I will send someone out to inquire." At the end of the sentence, Yinger was attracted, and after a few words, he gave a heavy purse.

The mother and son went to wash and change their clothes. When they came back, Ying'er was standing by the door and replied in a low voice, "Miss, this matter is a bit mysterious. None of the girls and women who are usually talkative dare to speak the truth. I think the incident is not small. However, the slaves have somehow heard some news. Brother Huan saved Prince Jin in Jinling this time. The emperor issued an order today to praise him and reward him with many good things. He also asked the master to cultivate it carefully. He, his wife's matter may have something to do with him."

"What's the matter? Absolutely! He's definitely playing tricks!" Aunt Xue said angrily.

"You saved Prince Jin? What a blessing! No wonder even my aunt fell down!" But what's the inside story?Xue Baochai sighed and speculated secretly, fearing that her family would be implicated.

Seeing that a prince was brought out by this incident, and he was still the real Prince Jin, Aunt Xue was even more worried. How will he live the life of a concubine who has gained power!"

The Xue brothers and sisters hurriedly followed.

Because the old lady issued a password-locked order, although the inside story of Mrs. Wang's downfall has been spread among the servants, no one dares to spread it to the ears of the young masters; moreover, Yingchun is cowardly, Xichun is indifferent, Daiyu is lonely, and Baoyu is innocent. He will not send anyone to inquire, so the truth of the matter is currently only known to Tanchun, who is used to drilling and has a good network.Even if she knew, as smart as she was, she wouldn't casually mention it to others.

Baoyu was sitting by the window staring at the crescent moon in the sky, and said in a dreamy tone, "Do you know Xiren? Today I saw Brother Huan and Prince Jin. He is two outstanding talents. He took away all his beauty and beauty, and put them on himself! Brother Huan saved Prince Jin, presumably the ancestors would not drive him out of the house, right? How could he be a murderer for being so righteous and brave? Don’t you think so? ?”

Because Yuanchun had failed twice in the Prince's Mansion, the process of entering the Prince's Mansion of Jin was a bit dishonorable, so he didn't make a fuss. Baoyu also met this legendary brother-in-law for the first time.

Xiren was bitter in his heart, worried about the innocence of his master, and fearful of brother Huan's ruthlessness. He felt that the road ahead was dark and thorny, but he couldn't show it yet, so he nodded with a forced smile.

While talking, Aunt Xue came in hurriedly, held Baoyu to look up and down, left and right, and said pitifully, "Baoyu, how are you? Don't worry, even if your mother is locked up, there will be Auntie, Sister Feng and the old lady protecting you! I will not let you suffer!"

Xiren wanted to stop her, but Aunt Xue's temper was too violent, she opened her mouth and said everything that should be said and should not be said.She stomped her feet angrily.

"Aunt, what are you talking about? What does it mean that mother is locked up?" Baoyu was very disturbed.

"You, don't you know?" Aunt Xue realized something was wrong and asked stammeringly.

Xue Baochai frowned secretly.When such a big event happened in the family, the mother was devastated, and Baoyu didn't let Baoyu know about it. He protected him so innocently and kindly. , How can he survive in the future?

Thinking of this, Baochai thought of the golden and jade marriage mentioned by Mrs. Wang a while ago, and suddenly felt very conflicted in her heart.

Just at this moment, someone outside the door reported that the mandarin duck girl had come.

Xiren broke out in cold sweat, and hurriedly begged in a low voice, "Mrs. Xue, the old lady has already spoken. If Second Master Bao knows about this, all the servants in the yard will pull out their tongues. Please do me a favor. At least put on a pretense in front of Yuanyang. Second Master, our lives are in your hands, so please laugh! Come on, laugh!"

Aunt Xue knew that she had caused trouble, so she agreed repeatedly.Although Baoyu had some ominous premonition, he couldn't bear to implicate the girl beside him, so he smiled.Several people sat around on the kang, pretending to play flower cards.

"Hey, are you playing?" The mandarin duck rolled its eyeballs without breaking them, and stretched out its hand towards Baoyu, "Second Master Bao, take out your psychic treasure jade, and the old lady asked me to replace it for you."

"It's fine, why are you thinking of changing the pendant? Isn't the original one bad?" Baoyu took off the golden pendant around his neck and forced a smile.

"This is good, but the material is too heavy. You have to take it off and put it aside when you wash and go to bed. The girls are careless and lost it several times. This is better." Yuanyang said and took it from her arms. Draw out a net woven with multicolored silk ribbons, unload the psychic gem, put it into the hollowed-out secret compartment, put it back on the neck of the gem, and remind with a smile, "Second Master Bao is about to put away, the psychic gem is really precious." , don't ask others to look at it, and don't lose it. The net is soft and not intimidating, and you don't need to take it off whether you wash or sleep, it's much better than that gold pendant!"

Baoyu nodded absently.

Yuanyang didn't wait too long, grabbed Xiren and said with a smile, "The road is hard to walk at night, let this girl give me a ride."

The two left hand in hand, Aunt Xue was very flustered, she pouted at Xue Baochai's daughter, motioned her to comfort Baoyu, and followed her lightly.

The two arrived at a rockery next to the gate of the courtyard, and the mandarin duck said softly, "Xi Ren, please tell him to hide the psychic jade of the second master Bao in his clothes, and don't let outsiders see it, let alone mention him as "a fairy born with jade in his mouth." If you come into the world, you will have great achievements in the future. If outsiders take the initiative to mention it, you will say that the psychic gem has been lost long ago, did you hear me?"

"Why, why?" Xiren's throat tightened.

"Don't ask why, as long as you know that this is what the old lady meant. If anyone dares to mention the fact that the second master Bao was born with jade, he doesn't need to pull out his tongue and die directly!" Yuanyang's tone was unprecedentedly cruel.

"Yes, I understand." Xiren's gentle voice was hoarse at this moment.

The mandarin duck sighed and left in the dark.

Aunt Xue rushed back to the house, closed the door and cursed angrily, "What a Jia family, what an old lady, she even wants to suppress the son-in-law and give way to the son-in-law! This is bullying Baoyu without the protection of his mother." Don't forget that our Wang family is still standing behind Baoyu!"

"Mother, what's going on?" Baochai asked with a frown.

Aunt Xue recounted the conversation between the two of them, and at the end she cursed again, making the old lady's protective feelings so dirty.

Baoyu's face was constantly changing from red to white, and she felt as if she had been immersed in boiling water for a while, her whole body was unbearably hot, and for a while it was like falling into an ice cave. Kang murmured, "I'm going to ask my ancestors what my mother did wrong and what I did wrong. She doesn't want us anymore!"

Xiren, who moved to the door in small steps, was so frightened when he heard this, he pushed open the door and knelt down with a bang, begging, "Second Master Bao, you must never ask the old lady! If you go, all of us will die!" Then he dropped to his knees and took a few steps, hugging Baoyu's legs.

Baoyu felt sad and confused, she didn't feel shed tears, and changed her words, "I, how can I have the heart to ask you to die for me? Forget it, I won't go to the old lady, I will ask Brother Huan why You have persecuted my mother so far!" Although Baoyu is innocent, he is not stupid, and after a little thought, he understands that apart from climbing up to Prince Jin's Jia Huan, who else can shake his mother's position in Jia's mansion.

Aunt Xue became energetic when she heard this, and she was filled with righteous indignation, "Yes! Go ask that little bastard! It's his fault!"

Xue Pan squeezed his fists and said with a smirk, "Baoyu, I'll go with you! What kind of a thing is he? If you dare to make you feel wronged, see if I don't beat him to death!"

Xue Baochai supported his forehead, and said leisurely, "The emperor just issued an imperial decree today to praise Brother Huan severely, and you will come to the door to fight at night. If Prince Jin finds out, mentioning it to the emperor, there is only one thing that ignores the holy grace and harbors resentment." It's enough for you to drink a pot!"

Aunt Xue and Xue Pan were slightly taken aback, and immediately put away their arrogant expressions, replaced them with a sneer, and secretly glanced at Baoyu.

Baoyu smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Bao, don't worry, I only ask him, I won't do anything. If I can ask him to let my mother go, I will do anything!"

Baochai thought it would be good to let him go, maybe we can find out some truths, if the inside story is very bad, maybe it will implicate the three of us, mother and son, and we have to move out of Jia's mansion as soon as possible, so he said with a smile, "One farewell to five What do you look like when you go empty-handed in [-]? Why don’t you bring some gifts, the two brothers will talk about the past first, and then it will be easier to open your mouth when talking about other things.” The words ordered Xiren to prepare gifts.

Although Xiren didn't like Baoyu's contact with Jia Huan, she couldn't help it when her masters said something, so she had to choose a few expensive gifts and wrap them in brocade boxes.

Xue Baochai and Aunt Xue stayed behind to wait for news, and Xue Pan accompanied Baoyu to hurried to Jiahuan's yard.

Just after taking a bath, Jia Huan's ankle-length black hair hangs over his shoulders, shining faintly in the flickering candlelight, which is more eye-catching than the top-grade silk and satin, plus a hibiscus face and a pair of peach blossom eyes , a romantic figure with perfect proportions, the two who crossed the threshold couldn't help but stare blankly.

His clothes are also very simple. He wears a pure white underwear inside, and a bright red tulle brocade robe on the outside, which is tied loosely with a jade belt, which outlines a wasp waist that cannot be grasped. He doesn't get up when he sees someone coming Greeting, only bent one leg, raised the delicate chin and asked in a manly voice, "Why are you here so late?"

Xue Panshang didn't have time to put away the amazement he was full of, he was drunk by the young Qingyue's charming voice, a lot of saliva was secreted from his mouth, and his heart was beating wildly involuntarily.At first I thought Jia Huan was ugly and vulgar, but now I see him, my good guy, that eye-catching beauty is so beautiful that it is several blocks away from Baoyu!Especially the evil smile on his red lips, it really took people's souls away!

Baoyu is also greedy for beauty, and what he sees during the day is different from what he sees at night. One is splendid, one is charming, one is handsome, and the other is mysterious. I was speechless for a long while.

Xue Pan took his seat on the edge of the kang, stared at Jia Huan's shiny toes without socks, secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with a flattering smile, "Huan'er, we heard that you are back, so we came here to visit you. I am your Xue Pan." Brother Panxue, what's going on in the future..."

Jia Huan stared at him and sneered, "Stop, what is not ring, I don't know you well, don't bark! I'm going to sleep, you guys have something to say, and you fart!"

Xue Pan's petite heart trembled again, secretly thinking that a beauty is a beauty, even swearing is so charming!Even more charming when you sneer!My mother, I can't stand it anymore!

Baoyu finally broke through the barrier, and said angrily, "Brother Huan, I came to ask you, why did you kill my mother? She has something wrong with you, and I will apologize for her! Can you let the ancestors let her go?" !"

Jia Huan raised his head and laughed, and said sarcastically, "How can I be sorry? Why don't you see for yourself?" After speaking, he glanced at the sandalwood box on the shelf.

The little mute hurriedly stood on tiptoe to take it off and put it on the kang table.

Jia Huan lifted the lid of the box and pushed it to Baoyu's hand.

Baoyu picked up the certificate and looked at it carefully. The more he looked, the paler his face became. Not only his fingertips, but his whole body trembled.Xue Pan found that the situation was not right and hurried over, coughed violently after reading a few lines, and said to himself, my good boy!My aunt actually sold all the 6000 mu of Jia's sacrifice land!This is to die!If the daughter-in-law of my Xue family dared to do this, she would drink a glass of poisoned wine earlier and erase her name in the genealogy, and she would not be allowed to enter the ancestral hall or enjoy offerings for eternity!

Thinking about it this way, I feel that being imprisoned in the ancestral hall for cleaning up is nothing at all!

Guessing that the two had seen the same thing, Jia Huan took the certificate and put it in the sandalwood box, and said with a sarcasm, "If it was you, would you let the person who wants to kill you go?" Recalling Jia Baoyu's holy father attribute, he added another sentence "Even if I am willing to let her go, the Jia family will not let her go. If Lai Da succeeds, she will not only kill a concubine of the Jia family, but also the century-old foundation of the Jia family. When the eggs are over, you won’t even think about it.”

Baoyu's face was pale, her chest heaved and she couldn't breathe for a long time.He didn't expect his mother to do these things, which completely subverted her usual gentle, loving, noble and dignified image.

Xue Pan was extremely embarrassed, looked at Jia Huan and laughed.

Jia Huan impatiently dealt with the two of them, waved his hands and said, "I'm going to bed, you guys go!"

Baoyu shuddered suddenly, and then recovered from the horror and sadness, feeling ashamed to stay any longer, pulled Xue Pan and ran away from the door, but the dumb brother and sister blocked the door with a dagger.

The attacker pulled Baoyu behind him, and asked sternly, "Brother Huan, what do you mean? Can't wait to get rid of Second Master Bao? Don't forget that there are old ladies and Second Mistress Lian up there." Just keep an eye on it! Don't be too crazy!"

Jia Huan didn't even give her a straight look, and yawned, "People can leave, but things stay. I have a bad habit of plucking geese. Remember not to come back empty-handed, and my attitude will be good." point."

It was only then that Xiren realized that he was still carrying a few brocade boxes in his hand, and his heartstrings that were about to break suddenly relaxed. He really didn't know whether to cry or laugh, so he quickly dropped the things, and pulled the two grandfathers who were completely dumbfounded. , Take advantage of the night to escape.

The dumb brothers and sisters inserted the daggers back into their little boots, picked up the brocade box and placed it in front of the master for him to count.

"Good boy, take it to buy candy." Jia Huan chuckled lightly, and casually threw two broken pieces of silver over.
