Jia Zheng through the Red Mansions

Ever since Jia Min brought her son and daughter to Beijing to visit relatives, while helping her mother manage the affairs of Jia's house, she also taught Li Wan. He is honest but lacks the acumen of a big family with complicated people in charge, and Mrs. Wang's teaching was limited before, which is why he is like this now. Although there is nothing wrong with it, it is not outstanding.

Jia Min knew in her heart that her help was only temporary. After all, she was not only Jia Min, but also the wife of the Lin family, so she cared more about Li Wan. Li Wan was a transparent person, and she followed Jia Min to watch Learning, I am really grateful to my aunt.

When something happened to Dafang, Jia’s mansion was ordered to move back to the former Rongguo Mansion. Seeing that the plaque that once symbolized the glory and status of “Emperor Rongguo Mansion” was taken down, everyone’s hearts were filled with sadness. It was very uncomfortable. At the door, I met Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng and his wife who came here together on an order. Wang Xifeng's eyes were red when she saw Jiamu, and she choked up and called "Old lady". Hugging Wang Xifeng, the big guy finally managed to coax him.

After moving back to the mansion, except for Jia Lian and his wife who moved into the former yard of Jia She, the others still live in their own homes. Because the children are grown up and there is no room left, so Jia's mother proposed to put the few The rooms and the garden are connected together, which saves space and makes the children's living quarters unique and lovely.

Everyone agreed with Jia Mu's opinion, and then began to rebuild. Wang Xifeng took the initiative to take out her dowry, and Jia Min also paid a lot of money. Jia Mu shared a large share. It is said that it is dusty to store in the warehouse, so I took it out to decorate the children's house, which saved this part of the expenses.

Yuan Chun originally wanted to take out a share, but was persuaded by Jia's mother. After all, she was already the daughter-in-law of the Mancha family. Now that the Jia family has experienced ups and downs in the past few years, the Mancha family has been rising steadily. They are already Manchus. The new rich, but did not start to dislike Yuan Chun, Mother Jia was already very relieved, how could Yuan Chun get any more money? Although Mrs. Mancha and Yuanchun mentioned several times that if there is an ambiguity, you can speak up, but Jiamu still disagrees.

When the garden was finished and it was a good spring, Mother Jia sent someone to invite Yuan Chunlai, and took Jia Min, Li Wan, Wang Xifeng and a group of children to the garden for a spring outing, and at the same time to see the children We all like to choose a place so that people can arrange things.

Baoyu was naturally in high spirits. He often went around the garden before it was built, and his heart was itchy for a long time. Baoyu talked the most along the way. This time, there was no pressure from his old-fashioned father, but there was more elder brother Jia. Zhu is persuasive and seductive, and Li Wan, the elder sister-in-law who is like a mother, is gentle and courteous, so Jia's mother's doting does not make Baoyu become extraordinarily arrogant in this environment.

Because the student who entered this time is very virtuous, so the admission of students is also very strict. Originally, the husband did not want female students, but after seeing how smart the girls in Jia’s house are, the husband also nodded. The girls are all grown up and can no longer be with their boyfriends, so they no longer go to school, but are taught by Li Wan at home, but after all, they have seen the outside world, and their vision is better than that of the outside world. The ladies should be more open-minded—since she stopped going to school, Baoyu was the only one who could tell them these things, so Baoyu shouldered the expectations of the sisters, and she was no longer the son who only knew how to enjoy flowers and willows in the past. Let the sisters set their sights high and focus on major events?

Among the sisters, Baoyu and Daiyu are different from other sisters. At first, it was just because they were new sisters, so they felt fresh. Talking, more and more found that they liked the same things. Although Baoyu was also reading the Four Books, he really didn’t like official career, but spent most of his energy elsewhere. I often laugh that he is quite romantic like a wise man in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He is not like Jia Huan. He is two years younger than Baoyu, but he looks like a young adult.

Baoyu laughed when he heard this, and didn't agree with Tanchun what to say, but he knew in his heart that Tanchun was praising himself and belittling the ring, but in fact, he didn't agree with his attitude.

Only Daiyu never said these things to him. The two of them even made some mysterious poems together.Therefore, as the days went by, Baoyu and Daiyu became closer and closer, and Jia's mother was happy to see it happen. Although Jia Min was a little dissatisfied with Baoyu, she was not a stubborn mother. She still had to see what Daiyu wanted. So there was no further intervention.

To compare Yu Baoyu's enthusiasm, Daiyu and Sanchun were walking together, the four girls were talking from time to time, watching Baoyu's posture in front of them covered their mouths and smiled, Jia Huan walked beside her, her little face was serious , but in the end the brilliance in his eyes betrayed the restlessness in his heart.

The adults walked together, walking slowly, surrounded by maids and women in front of and behind them, walking slowly all the way, watching the familiar scenery now have a new look, each courtyard has its own Surrounded by flowers, plants and flowing water, I can't help being in a good mood. Listening to Baoyu naming these courtyards one by one in front, Yuan Chun said with a smile: "Baoyu's talent and learning have really improved. It sounds unique to me." very."

Jia's mother loved Baoyu to the bottom of her heart. When she heard this, the smile on her face deepened, and she laughed quickly: "Okay, if this is the case, let Baoyu take the plaque!"

Baoyu was happier when she heard it, and hurriedly discussed her thoughts with her sisters, and finally made a final decision. Daiyu and Sanchun ignored him, watched him point to a certain place, said several names, and then had a headache because it was hard to choose look.

"Look at him, sister Lin, you always spoil him, and he has become Jia Dao!" Tanchun said with a smile while looking at Daiyu.

Daiyu spat on Tanchun: "You're still talking about me, a few days ago he wrote that plum blossom poem, didn't you applaud him and compare him to Lu Shaoyou? I wanted to cry for Shaoyou! "

Tanchun didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard it, and he made a gesture to pinch Daiyu's cheek: "Okay, okay, look at your small mouth, I can't beat you, I'm going to do it right away!"

Baoyu still happily mixed in: "Oh, oh, you can play lightly, the weather has just turned warm, so what if you sweat and catch a cold!"

"Bah, don't curse me here!" Tanchun said out of breath, and the chess player next to him quickly handed over a sweat towel. Tanchun wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked with a smile, "You decide quickly, here what is it call!"

"Just call it Yihong Courtyard. I'll live here!" After that, Baoyu ordered people to report to Jiamu at the back—they walked fast, and Jiamu specially let them go shopping on their own, so as not to let the adults worry too much. Restrained.

Everyone continued to move forward and came to a courtyard with lush green bamboos. Daiyu immediately took a fancy to the tranquility of this place. Seeing the liking in Daiyu's eyes, Yingchun smiled at Daiyu and said, "Look at this place, it's really beautiful." It's really custom-made for Sister Lin, if you don't stay here for a long time, you will waste so many people's thoughts in vain."

When Daiyu heard this, her face blushed a little, and before she could speak, Baoyu just stepped in and said, "It's good here, there is a ready-made good name, how about calling it Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"

Everyone said hello, didn't say anything else to make fun of, and walked forward again. Baoyu looked at the place surrounded by water waves in front of everyone's discussion. Courtyard, the two of us live closer now."

Daiyu smiled and said nothing, and pointed to the front: "Hurry up, let the owner of the yard choose the name in a while, and you will beat your chest and feet!"

Baoyu smiled and ran to the front again, shouting as he ran, "This is a good place. Who wants it?"

At this moment, a refreshing voice came from behind, with a slight panting voice: "How did you forget me?! The old ancestor can say that she even prepared a yard for me!"

When everyone turned their heads, they saw a figure walking towards here not far away, the speed was not slow, who was it not Shi Xiangyun?

Since Jiamu moved out with Jia Zheng's house, the Shijia sent people to talk to Jiamu from time to time. Although the two brothers of the Shijia were serious and stupid and somewhat frustrated in the court, they still treated Jiamu very much. Filial, Xiao Xiangyun often haunts Jia's house, and Jia's mother also likes her open temper, but she often sighs that she is too generous and neglects the meticulous side.

Speaking of it, Xiangyun and Baoyu knew each other first, and Daiyu was behind. When he saw Daiyu for the first time, Xiangyun watched Baoyu circle around Daiyu and ignored her. "My brother is biased", but after getting along with Daiyu, I immediately fell in love with it. The two of them often kept together poems and couplets until midnight, which made Daiyu's nanny, Nanny Wang, several strands of hair gray.

No matter how careless Xiangyun is now, he can see that Baoyu has gradually changed his feelings for Daiyu, so he must bring this matter out to make Daiyu blush. She clapped her hands and laughed, making Daiyu chase her every time while saying He said: "When you have brother-in-law Yun in the future, let's see how clumsy you are!"

Xiangyun didn't blush, and shouted: "Let me meet brother-in-law Lin first!"

This provoked Daiyu to blush even more, but at this time, Baoyu is usually the one who suffers. As soon as he appeared, Xiangyun laughed even more happily, but waiting for Baoyu to lie down for a while, the three of them We chatted again, as if we were so happy.

Seeing her coming at this time, Baoyu clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful, I think this is the best place for you to live. Your name has a Xiang character, and this place is surrounded by water!"

Xiangyun liked it at first glance, and clapped his hands, Yingchun went over and took Xiangyun's hand: "The old ancestor sent someone to your house to pick you up, and said he couldn't come because of something, so how can he come today? "

Xiangyun blushed a little for a rare occasion, and distracted others with his words, which made everyone feel puzzled. Seeing that Xiangyun was very stubborn, everyone didn't ask any more questions. In the evening, everyone knew that the pearls in Jiamu's room were always in harmony with each other. Xiangyun was the closest, so I asked her about it, and only then did I know that someone went to the historian's house to marry Xiangyun as a baby, but the matter was left alone, and Xiangyun was allowed to go out. Everyone sighed for a while, especially It's Yingchun. Right now, it's almost time for her to get engaged. Seeing the love between Zhu's elder brother and Zhu's sister-in-law, and her own brother's promiscuousness, comparing the two, Yingchun's heart can be seen immediately. Having said that, it is Xiangyun and Baoyu who are arguing about the name of this place.

In the end, Baoyu's Zilingzhou was slightly better, but then every place changed from Baoyu's dominance to Baoyu Xiangyun's endless disputes, which added a lot of fun.

At the end of the shopping, everyone has chosen their own residences, and they are waiting for Jiamu and the others at the last Qiushuangzhai. While waiting, Xiangyun discusses the topic and writes a poem for each atom. Baoyu is naturally the most welcome Yes, as everyone was talking, a little maid came to pass the word, saying that Jiamu felt tired halfway through the stroll, so she went to the pavilion in front to rest for a while, and then went back to the front to let her brothers and sisters play by themselves.

Now that they were talking, everyone let go. Baoyu ordered the maids to get pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and everyone wrote poems impromptuly.

In the evening Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu both came back from court, and the whole family gathered together. Mother Jia sighed for a while, thinking of the mighty family on the reunion night, now only these people are left in front of her eyes. Looking at the children who have grown up a lot, the sadness in Jia's mother's heart has been diluted a lot.

After dinner and having tea, Baoyu began to tell his father and eldest brother about today's visit to the garden as if offering treasures, and showed them his poems. Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu looked at each other, and they both praised Baoyu. I was even more happy when I read it, and finally the whole family circulated it. Yuan Chun named the courtyard Grand View Garden, and everyone nodded.

Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu have already figured out Baoyu's temperament. Jia Zheng originally maintained a free-ranging attitude towards his children, and Jia Zhu originally had a headache for Baoyu's "ignorance". After the series of things like ransacking the family and dividing the family, Jia Zhu himself already wanted to withdraw from the officialdom, let alone force Baoyu to go to school. You can't go astray and become a worthless dude.

After reading Baoyu's poems, although the rhetoric is gorgeous and somewhat flashy, they still have a certain depth and bearing, which is not like the frivolity and vainness of those masters. Looking at the poems of other sisters, Xiangyun is calm and calm, and Daiyu has her own The strength of character has jumped above the three springs, and Jia Zhu's heart is even more relieved. After reading Daiyu's poems and thinking about Baoyu's poems just now, she is deeply influenced by Daiyu unconsciously. To be gorgeous and not vulgar, with these sisters around, I am not afraid that Baoyu will go astray.

Jia Zheng had already confessed to Jia Zhu and informed him of the properties he bought in Suzhou and Jinling. Jia Zhu figured out that if Baoyu and Daiyu were to marry in the future, they would naturally share the land and manor. With his intelligence, it is enough to take care of these self-sufficiency.
