Jialan: Crossing the Red Chamber

Mother did it, but he had already persuaded her to destroy the two straw figures and told Ma Daopo to stop casting the spell.Jia Lan heaved a sigh of relief.

It's just that as the day passed, Jia Huan was always depressed.

Finally, on the way home, Jia Lan said to Jia Huan: "Aunt Zhao did all this for you. The third aunt doesn't get close to you, she only has you. I think you should have a good talk with her."

Jia Huan sighed and nodded.

In just a few days, Jia Huan's personality was forced to become so different.In the past, not to mention persuading others, even persuading himself, he was afraid that he would not be able to do it.

Jia Lan didn't know if this mature appearance was suitable for Jia Huan.

When I got home, I found out that Baoyu Wang Xifeng was still in chaos, even if he destroyed the straw man and stopped cursing, he couldn't get back to normal.Jia Huan went to question Ma Daopo, but she said she didn't know why.Jia Huan became anxious for a moment, if something happened to Baoyu Wang Xifeng, the Jia family would have to investigate, and they would definitely pull his mother out.

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Jia Lan persuaded him that nothing would happen. He knew that Baoyu was in trouble, and that the monk with the scarlet head and the lame Taoist would definitely show up.

Sure enough, four days later, two immortal figures appeared and taught Jia Zheng the solution.

It's just that before the two left, they saw Jia Lan standing at the door and smiled strangely.Jia Lan was puzzled, turned his eyes, chased after him, bowed and said: "The two immortals invite you."

The monk and the Taoist said in harmony: "I dare not be, I'm just an idler."

Jia Lan cupped his hands again and said, "I have something to ask for advice."

The two looked at each other, and the monk smiled and said: "You don't need to say, we both know what you want to ask." He pointed into the room and said: "You can guess why that stupid thing came down to earth, and you can guess Now it’s time for you to come here by chance.”

Jia Lan looked in the direction of his hand, feeling lost in thought.When they reacted and asked again, the two had disappeared.

But it is said that Baoyu and Wang Xifeng woke up the next day after the monk with the scarlet head became lame.And because the monk said before leaving, Yin people (note: women) should not be allowed to attack within 33 days, and Li Wan and others were not allowed to enter the room.

Jia Lan went to visit from time to time, but Jia Huan was offended by her own mother because of this incident, and felt ashamed of Baoyu. Not much to go.Jia Lan had nothing to persuade, so he had to go with him.

One day, Baoyu was leaning on the bed, chatting casually with Jia Lan, and it was nothing more than whose family's actor was ready, whose garden was ready, and whose girl was beautiful. kind.Jia Lan sounded a little lazy, not very interested, and just followed him.

As he was talking, he suddenly mentioned the poetry reception that Baoyu went to last time.Baoyu suddenly said: "I mentioned you to the prince, and the prince said that you can go with me next time. Are you going?"

Jia Lan became tense for no reason, and his laziness disappeared. He calmed down for a while, thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about it when the time comes. If we have time, we will definitely go."

Baoyu gave him a sideways look, "I'm afraid you are the only one in the world who would refuse the invitation of the Prince of Beijing."

Jia Lan snorted, "Your Highness won't judge me for being rude, will you?"

Baoyu reached out to pick up the book and flipped through it, yawned and said casually: "Forget it, who would have the same knowledge as a child."

Jia Lan rubbed his nose, seeing Baoyu's sleepy look, got up and left.

After Baoyu maintained for 33 days, not only her body became strong, but also the sores on her face healed.So far, the Jia family is at ease.

But Jia Huanchu was not so lucky.Aunt Zhao didn't listen to Jia Huan's explanation at all, as if out of mother's nature, she sensed Jia Huan's intention to leave the house completely from Jia Huan's few words.

Even if Aunt Zhao is not a competent mother, she still knows a little bit about Jia Huan. She knows that according to Jia Huan's stubbornness, and according to Jia Huan's dislike for Jia's mansion, if he can leave this place one day, he will never come back. return.

Somehow, she just knew.

So she pretended to be crazy and foolish, messing around, but refused to listen to what Jia Huan had to say.Jia Huan looked at his mother looking like she was dying in front of him, and the anger accumulated for many days was poured on a layer of oil.

He gritted his teeth, and stared at Aunt Zhao with eyes wide open, until she couldn't stand it and took a few steps back before throwing the curtain and going out.

Until her son who suddenly became strong left, Aunt Zhao lost her previous barbaric aura and fell down on the kang and began to cry.

When Jia Lan arrived, Jia Huan had disappeared, and Aunt Zhao was lying on the kang table crying with snot and tears, while Caiyun stood aside timidly, trying to persuade her but dare not.

Jia Lan sighed, stood at the door, took a step in, and finally exited the door again.

At first, I thought it was Jia Huan's capricious behavior again, and he would recover after a while, but Jia Huan still didn't come back until the full moon was in the mid-heaven.

Jia Lan was a little anxious.

Jia Zheng didn't know because there was a banquet in Ning Shunhou's mansion, and Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others didn't like to play with Jia Huan, so they didn't pay attention to Jia Huan's absence.

Jialan thought about it and secretly told Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng frowned when she heard that Jia Huan hadn't returned late at night.Jia's family rules are strict, and no mistakes can be tolerated.Now that Jia Huan is so ignorant, it's okay for others to know about it.

She spat in her heart, smiled and said to Jia Lan: "Don't worry, Lan'er, Auntie will send someone to look for it right away."

Jia Lan was very reassured about Wang Xifeng's ability, seeing what she said, she was half relieved.Wang Xifeng urged him to go back to the yard as soon as possible, and not to hang around outside, lest others might become suspicious if they saw it.

Jia Lan obediently returned to the Grand View Garden, and just took two steps when she saw a person coming in from the east corner gate.

The dark blue silk gown, the hairpin with round pearls on top of his head, his brows are slightly wrinkled, and there is a hint of hostility, this is not Jia Huan.

Jia Lan stepped forward and said angrily, "Where have you been?"

Jia Huan was startled, and answered in a daze for a long while, "I went to Tailing Garden. Are you looking for me?" Tailing Garden is an opera theater, and Jia Huan seldom goes there at ordinary times. Hu must have walked in today.

Seeing that the anger on his face had disappeared, Jia Lan knew that he had probably let go of his anger, and his heart relaxed for the most part, but he still held on, and said in a straight tone: "I've been looking for you all afternoon, and I don't mind going out. If you know, let me know, you want to kill me in a hurry?"

Jia Huan was still in a daze, but finally laughed. He patted Jia Lan on the shoulder and said, "Be careful next time."

Jia Lan pulled his hand away and stared, "I thought you were in Jubaozhai?"

Jia Huan said: "Well, I did go there at first, but old man Qi didn't open the door this morning because he had something to do, so he went to Tailing Garden."

Jia Lan stared straight at him, still not calm, Jia Huan let him stare, looking very calm.

Jia Lan muttered in his heart, it's terrific, terrific, this little brat has grown up and climbed onto his head.After thinking about it, I couldn't help but turn my head away, curled my lips and said, "Go and apologize to Second Aunt Lian. I just asked her to find you."

Jia Huan nodded, and before leaving, he patted Jia Lan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I will definitely pay attention next time... I won't make you so worried." After speaking, he walked quickly to the courtyard where Wang Xifeng was.

Jia Lan looked at his back, sighed faintly, and turned back to the Grand View Garden.

15, young master, son

As April approached, the weather gradually warmed up, and the archery class was re-opened. In fact, as early as years ago, because of Jia Zheng's forgetfulness, Baoyu's slack, and Jia Huan's stubbornness, this class existed in name only, and Jia Lan was left alone to suffer. Hard support.

Since the Chinese New Year passed, Jia Lan has grown taller like a bamboo shoot after spring. In winter, she can't tell when she wears thick cotton-padded clothes. When she wears spring clothes, Li Wan realizes that her youngest son is almost over her shoulders. Like an arrow.

He has grown taller and his body has become stronger. Now Jialan can draw the half-meter-wide mahogany bow steadily and effortlessly, and with daily practice, he finally successfully reached the legendary realm of piercing Yang with a hundred steps.

The first time the ten arrows hit the bull's-eye in a row, Jia Lan rubbed his eyes and then rubbed his eyes, and after confirming that it was not a fake, he ran to Li Wan overjoyed to claim the credit.

Seeing Jia Lan's rare cute appearance of being coquettish and wagging her tail waiting for a reward, Li Wan couldn't help pursing her lips and laughing, and couldn't help mentioning this at dinner, her words couldn't hide her pride.

When Jia Mu heard this, she immediately became interested.Baoyu, Jia Huan and Jia Lan must compete in the roll call.

If it's just for fun, the word "competition" is used solemnly. Baoyu put his arms around Jiamu's waist and said: "This black light is blind, the old ancestors are trying to test our eyesight, not our ability." Archery?"

Mrs. Wang didn't know the little Jiujiu in her son's heart. She was afraid of losing face if she lost the game, so she smiled and said: "The game can be done at any time, why should the ancestor be in a hurry."

Wang Xifeng also said with a smile: "Madam said that it's late today, if the old lady is interested, she will let their uncles and nephews perform for you another day."

As soon as Jia Mu heard it made sense, she nodded and raised other matters.

Baoyu heaved a sigh of relief, and when he turned his head, he saw Daiyu looking at him with pursed lips and a teasing look in his eyes, so he couldn't help grinning, and turned away from smiling.

Aunt Zhao watched the two flirting with each other, and secretly spat.When I got home at night, I asked Jia Huan how his archery was, and Jia Huan was average.Aunt Zhao couldn't help being angry, and scolded Jia Huan for not working hard.

Jia Huan let her scold without expression, without refuting.

Aunt Zhao thought that if Jia Huan was better at archery, she urged the three of them to compete, as long as Jia Huan could weaken Baoyu's prestige, but she didn't want Jia Huan to be as good as she wanted.

Jia Huan naturally knew what Aunt Zhao was thinking
