[Qing Chuan + Red Mansion] Midas touch

In order to save Baoyu as soon as possible, Mrs. Wang helped Jia's mother to go out, and at the same time called the stewards to prepare the carriage.

The carriage arrived quickly, and the group of people didn't pay much attention to ostentation, they just got on the carriage and left the mansion from the nearest west corner gate.

Several male servants in charge of Lai Da followed the guards on horseback, while Mrs. Wang and Yuanyang helped Jia Mu get into the front carriage.Sister Feng and other girls and women also got into the carriage behind them and followed closely behind.

As soon as the carriage left Rongguo Mansion, it drove towards Hongluo Temple at an extremely fast speed.That speed is beyond the imagination of the improved carriage that Zuo Xi rides in every day.

The road in the city is fairly flat, but the official road out of the city is only bumpy.The hair combed by the three of them early in the morning has been scattered a lot by now, but no one cares about these details at the moment.

Jiamu leaned against the mandarin duck with her eyes tightly closed, trying to suppress the urge to spit him out.

Jia Mu, who had never been motion sick, was not immune to motion sickness in this case.

Yuanyang, on the other hand, hugged Jia Mu with grinning teeth and used it as a cushion for her.The pain all over her body didn't feel like her own.She felt that if there was another bumpy ups and downs, her ribs would definitely be broken by the old lady.

But even so, Mother Jia was not much better.People didn't fall apart at such a fast speed, all thanks to the longevity of the script she got.

Mother Jia usually travels in an eight-person sedan chair, which is comfortable and elegant, but unfortunately the eight-person sedan chair is not as fast as the carriage.In order not to let her son who was reincarnated from killing stars really kill his heart and liver to drink, Jia Mu had to grit her teeth and endure it.

Recalling the past, she didn't seem to have suffered such a crime.

Not to mention, Jiamu, who was born in the Houfu, really didn't suffer at all.For the first time in her life, she was given both her eccentric second son and Baoyu, who was regarded as a pain in the eyes since she was a child.

Thinking of what Lai Da had just passed in, Mother Jia was so angry that she wanted to grab Jia Zheng's neck and roar in greeting the eighteenth generation of her ancestors.

Also killed Baoyu to add to the fun?

Help your ma's happiness.

In order to make herself more comfortable, or to say that the feeling of discomfort had reached a critical point, Mother Jia gave up all her decency and began to yell at Jia Zheng like a country woman.

The mandarin duck was the closest to Jia Mu, and his face was already pale from torture. Hearing Jia Muyou's curses in his ears, a pair of ears began to ring in Weng Weng, and mosquito coils appeared in his eyes.Hugging Jiamu tightly, telling myself over and over again in my heart:

Can't spit, can't spit.

For the sake of her family and her own future, Yuanyang really held back her mouth.But Jia Mu, who became more and more excited as she talked, spat out with a "wow".

The splashed pre-lunch and breakfast snacks and other things that were once called food fell from top to bottom on Mrs. Wang who was in the same carriage from top to bottom in a posture of a goddess.

Mrs. Wang's condition is three points worse than that of Jia's mother.

There were three people in the carriage.Jiamu, Yuanyang and herself.

Mother Jia still had mandarin ducks to help her, but Mrs. Wang could only hold onto the wall of the carriage with both hands to keep her from getting out, her broken bones were about to fall apart.

Well, it was already too uncomfortable, but now she has accepted the "baptism of love" from her mother-in-law. Mrs. Wang endured and endured, and finally she couldn't hold back and vomited.

The behavior of vomiting is similar to yawning, and most of them are contagious.

Yuanyang knew that she couldn't bear it, so she pushed Jia Mu slightly away with the last of her rationality, half sat up, grabbed the carriage window, and poked her head out.

Spit in the carriage, maybe only the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the carriage will suffer.But outside the speeding carriage, those male servants who followed the carriage on horseback escaped the catastrophe except those on the other side of the carriage, and everyone else was affected...

That scene was quite tragic~

→_→

They came out in too much haste, no one brought a change of clothes, and now they were vomited like this, and they wanted to find out the water to wash, and at the same time, they had to change the clothes that were splashed with filth.

After Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang vomited out one after another, the carriage had to stop.Because Yuanyang stuck her head out of the window to vomit, so in general, she was the cleanest in the whole carriage.So she got out of the car and went to the carriage behind to ask Sister Feng if she had brought a change of clothes or if there was any other way to deal with it.If not, I can only arrange for the male servant to ride a fast horse back to the house to fetch some clean clothes.

Sister Feng's side is not much better than the carriage in front, but compared to the tragedy of Jiamu and others, her side is already pretty good.

Her temples were scattered, her hairpin was crumbling, and her complexion was also bad, but she still persisted.After hearing what Yuanyang said about the situation over there, Sister Feng's expression froze, and then she got up and followed Yuanyang to the carriage in front.

"There is a tea house two miles further on. There must be water available there." Lai Da got off his horse with a disheveled face and filthy clothes. arrive.

It is definitely not possible to enter the temple directly in this state, so Sister Feng thought about it and asked Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang what they meant.

It's better to go to the teahouse in front to rest for a while, and wait for the mansion to send you a change of clothes before moving forward.As for Jia Zheng and Baoyu, it's not too late now.

Mrs. Wang was anxious, and Mother Jia was also in a hurry, but they really had to stop in this situation.So I had no choice but to suppress my anxiety and walk towards the teahouse.

But even so, Jia Mu also sent a young servant to go to Hongluo Temple to spread the word.

If you dare to hit Baoyu again, the old lady will be killed in front of you.

……

On the side of Hongluo Temple, Eleven and Zuo Xi used the vegetarian restaurant in the temple together, chatting while playing chess, waiting for the news from Rongguo Mansion, when Xiaozi walked in.

On the eleventh, seeing that Zuo Xi wanted to watch the excitement, he sent Xiaozi to watch over there, so that he could know the latest news in time.

The young servant of Jia's family came to Hongluo Temple non-stop all the way, and while passing on Jia Mu's words, he also described the tragic situation of Jia Mu and others with an exaggerated description.

After listening to the whole set of Xiao Zi, while coming to the small courtyard rented by Shishi, he was still beating his stomach, how could he speak more vividly, and make the master happy.

So under Yu Zi's diligent retelling, Eleven was amused by those words, let alone Zuo Xi.

After hearing Yu Xiaozi's report, Zuo Xi was stunned for a moment.

This is too bad, right?

The corner of his mouth twitched, Zuo Xi turned to look at Eleven, "I just wanted to watch something lively."

"Oh, I know." Eleven suppressed a smile and nodded to Zuo Xi, "It's not your fault."

"Of course it wasn't my fault."

Instead of blaming her for tipping the news, or Jia Zheng for educating his son, it is better to blame Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang for their doting on Baoyu, which made people have to do so.

"Actually, Baoyu was spoiled by the old lady and the second wife in the mansion. If I teach her well, maybe she can really support herself in the future."

'Puchi'

Eleven was directly amused by Zuo Xi's last sentence of 'support yourself'.

This evaluation. "I thought you said you would say that he would be nominated for the Gold List in the future. Is that why you don't like him?" Eleven dropped a black stone on the chessboard and asked Zuo Xi with a smile, "I remember that he was only 13 years old. "

"No. The main reason is that his temperament is not suitable." Zuo Xi shook his head, "He should really change with his sister."

Tanchun sees the sky and wants to go out and make contributions like a man.Baoyu, on the other hand, thinks about how to make rouge with her sisters, eat wine and enjoy flowers, and make poems and poems with her sisters every day.

In the past when I was reading articles, before the family business withered, Baoyu didn't think about making progress, and looked down on those men who made progress.When the family business withered, Baoyu went directly to Buddhism again.

What else is there to say about being enlightened and seeing through the world of mortals.

Ask Zuo Xi to say, if Jia's family is still standing, see if Baoyu will use his wealth as an excuse to escape.

He also said that sister Lin died, what happened to him.

Bah, sister Lin is dead, didn't he marry Baochai and take Ying'er according to his relatives.It was not until Jia's family ransacked the house and fell into decline, and he needed to stand up to support the family, that he left the family.

"If Baoyu became a daughter's family, his temperament would be considered cute."

eleven:"……"

He waved his hand at Xiaozi, and after the eleventh waited for Xiaozi to withdraw, he continued to play chess with Zuo Xi.

Zuo Xi played chess very slowly, every chess piece seemed to be placed after careful consideration.Even if she found that this chess piece did not turn the tide and change the disadvantage, she never regretted it.There is quite a kind of persistence without regrets and a calmness that can accept any result.

Eleven observes Zuo Xi's mind by playing chess with Zuo Xi. As he discovers more, he understands Zuo Xi better.

Such a temperament is good and bad.

"I heard from brother Xue that my aunt has been worrying about his marriage?"

Zuo Xi squeezed a white piece in his hand and looked at the chessboard while answering Eleven’s words, “You don’t need me to tell you about our family’s situation. I feel that my brother has been wronged. Pick someone with a good family background, and they may not like our family. I don’t care, as long as they have a good character and a good temper. Of course, it would be better if they were smarter. But I brother,

After a while, Zuo Xi raised his head and smiled at Eleven, "He wants to pick a good-looking one."

Men, almost all of them.

"Next year is the year of the general election, and there are bound to be a lot of well-qualified young women coming to Beijing. You might as well wait for Brother Xue's marriage, maybe you can't have an adventure."

"Thank you for the reminder, I will bring it to my mother when I get back."

Zuo Xi nodded after hearing this, but only one-tenth of so many beautiful women were finally selected into the palace, and the remaining beautiful women were either assigned to the clan or allowed to marry on their own.If the future mistress of the Xue family can come from these unselected show girls, it may not be a good marriage.

Moreover, most of these show girls were taught a full set of rules and etiquette at home or in the palace. No matter how you look at it, picking out the show girls is a shortcut to choose a daughter-in-law.

But next year. Will it really be drafted normally?

If Zuo Xi remembers correctly, it seems that some concubine will die of illness next year.

The concubine died of illness, the family of nobles was not allowed to have banquets and music for a year, and the common people were not allowed to marry in three months.

The minor election is to choose slaves, but the general election is to choose concubines, so next year's general election can still be held normally?

But speaking of this general election, Zuo Xi thought of Daiyu again.

Lin Ruhai has already set about exempting Daiyu from the election. When the two of them corresponded the day before yesterday, Daiyu still mentioned it in the letter.

She has been weak and sick since she was a child, and later invited the imperial physician to help her treat her. Now Daiyu's pulse case treated by the imperial physician is still sealed in the imperial hospital.No need to choose anything, as long as Lin Ruhai is willing to spend money, no one will embarrass them during this process.

very nice.

In other words, people who love their children probably don't want their girls to enter the palace.Jia's family. Speaking of which, why didn't people like Sister Feng think about the future of entering the Palace Expo?

If this kills her into the palace, maybe she can really kill her a bloody way.

After all, character determines destiny, and Sister Feng's character is very suitable for the survival rules of the harem.

and many more!

Thinking of next year's general election and Sister Feng, Zuo Xi couldn't help but think of some storylines about next year mentioned in the book.

It was said in the book that everyone was waiting to visit the palace again in Yuanchun, but unexpectedly, it was reported that the old concubine in the palace was in poor health, so she avoided all visits.

Then after the new year, Sister Feng had a miscarriage, saying that she had lost a brother.Sitting in the crescent moon, the imperial concubine died of illness, Baoyu celebrated her birthday, Jia Jing was promoted to Ningguo Mansion, Jia Lian Guoxiao's family filial piety married second sister You...

Let me go, that is to say, Sister Feng's miscarriage and loss of a child not long ago, and she also suffered from redness, Jia Lian married Second Sister You first, and waited for Sister Feng to die.

No matter how bad Sister Feng is, she gave birth to your eldest sister and your original wife for many years.

Is this still a person?

Who did the beast provoke, and why did he get forced into such a prodigal fellow?

Eleven found that Zuo Xi hadn't spoken for a long time, and saw Zuo Xi's face changing back and forth, she couldn't help but wonder: "This is... what did you think of?" She was so angry that her face changed.

"Men are big pigs." Although Zuo Xi didn't like Sister Feng, he was even more ashamed of Jia Lian.

In addition, Sister Feng is still her own cousin now, even if she is not on the sidelines, Zuo Xi will not hide from Sister Feng when Jia Lian secretly married Second Sister You like those people.

It is said that Sister Feng killed Second Sister You, but the question is, didn't Second Sister You choose this marriage?She wholeheartedly hoped that Sister Feng's death would allow her to come in and become the new Lian Er. Grandma, she almost died in Sister Feng's hands with a chess move, so how can she blame Sister Feng for being cruel?

Zuo Xi thought to herself, she could let Sister Feng know the news as soon as the matter of Jia Lian and Second Sister You was settled and before they got married.

With Sister Feng's character, she would definitely not allow Jia Lian to secretly marry the second wife.If you make a fuss in advance, Second Sister You can't enter the mansion, maybe you can really save your life.

Although, in Zuo Xi's view, this person's death is not a pity.

As for Third Sister You, Zuo Xi thought of a stalk I saw in modern times.

'What did Candide do wrong?Please let me go. '

This is to ridicule the thought and behavior of some women with problematic styles in modern times who want to find an honest man to marry and become a successor after enjoying all the feasting and feasting.

Third Sister You didn't think so.

But Mrs. You, who used her own daughter to pick up the guests, was even more disgusting than the old bustard in that building.

……

"It's very good, why do you say that?" Although he didn't understand the big pig's trotters, Eleven could still hear all kinds of dissatisfaction and disgust in Zuo Xi's words.

"It's nothing, I just hate men who are indiscreet, promiscuous everywhere, and claim to be coquettish." Not very carelessly explained to Eleven, Zuo Xi rolled his eyes and smiled at Eleven Said, "Brother, my future husband-in-law can only treat me well. If he dares to want the blessing of being equal to others, you must help me teach him a lesson. If it is too troublesome to get married, then Let him repair the imperial mausoleum and never appear in front of me for the rest of his life."

Generally, there are two types of people who build imperial mausoleums, one is ordinary craftsmen, and the other is officials sent by the imperial court to supervise.

The latter can return to the court to return to the court after finishing the repair of the imperial tomb, while the former is kept in the imperial tomb almost forever for the sake of confidentiality.

They were the first wave of people buried in the imperial mausoleum.

Hearing Zuo Xi's meaning, he knew it was the former one.

Eleven raised her eyes and smiled softly and helplessly at Zuo Xi.

You say she is not stupid, she is really cute sometimes.But you can call her stupid, but she can do some surprising things from time to time.

Just like this sentence.

The only one who can end the relationship between husband and wife is the regular wife.Inside and outside the words, it means being a regular wife and wanting to be the only one.This might not be telling herself in a coquettish way that she has no intention of marrying into the royal family.

"...I will do as you wish."

Eleven nodded, and replied seriously to Zuo Xi.The voice is gentle, but with a unique firmness.

Zuo Xi didn't know why, but her heart felt sour for no reason, and some dull pain flashed by.As if hiding his heart, Zuo Xi raised his head and gave Eleven a brilliant smile.

After talking for a while, Zuo Xi and Shiyi were silent, as if they were concentrating on playing chess, but their minds were not on the chessboard at all.

After playing for another quarter of an hour, Tian Guo walked in with drooping eyebrows, first bowed to the two chess players, and then whispered back when he stood up: "Master, Miss, the old lady from Rongguo Mansion has entered the temple."

As soon as he heard that Jia Mu and others had arrived, Zuo Xi immediately sat up and turned to look at Tian Guo, "Really?"

Tian Guo should be, looking at Eleven out of the corner of his eye.

General Eleven threw the pieces in his hand on the chessboard at will, and asked Tian Guo as he got up, "Did you bring it?"

Tian Guo heard the words, and directly handed a cylinder in his hand to Eleven, "Please take a look."

Eleven didn't pick it up, so he looked at Zuo Xi and motioned for Zuo Xi to pick it up.

Zuo Xi raised his eyebrows, stretched out his fingers, took another glance or two, found the switch to open the cylinder, and poured out a very delicate and compact one that could be called a work of art, "Telescope?"

"Brother Jiu bought this from a foreigner earlier. Didn't my sister want to watch the fun? I asked someone to fetch it."

Zuo Xi: It sounds like how big her addiction is.

→_→

Looking at the telescope inlaid with gems, Zuo Xi couldn't help but think of modern drones again.

If only there were drones.

Not only can you see, but you can also hear sound.

However, Zuo Xi's regret didn't last long, and he took Zuo Xi out of the house on Shishi.

A table had been set up in the yard long ago. The angle of the table was chosen well, and the construction was ingenious, so that it would not be conspicuous because it stood out.

At this time, not only three screens were placed on the table, but also two young men who were not dressed like those who came out of the palace stood.

"These two are strangers Tian Guo found from the overpass. They have sensitive facial features and can speak with lips."

What do you mean by lip-talking?

Zuo Xi looked at Eleven beside her, it couldn't be what she thought.

Eleven smiled, and pulled Zuo Xi's arm to let her sit with him, with a gentle and regretful expression on his face at the right time, "What I can do for my sister is really limited. I'm really not a good brother."

Zuo Xi twitched the corner of his mouth, and was a little speechless by Eleven's words, and replied in Eleven's tone and pace: "Brother, don't say that, I don't ask much, as long as my brother can live a long life, I will be satisfied gone."

Hearing the words on Eleventh, she was moved and held Zuo Xi's hand, "Good sister~"

Zuo Xi ignored the hand that was held for a while, and called out excitedly in response to Eleven's touch: "Brother~"

I'm sorry, but she really can't say the words 'good brother'.

Tian Guo on the side was almost not disgusted by these two people, but seeing the dumbfounded looks of the other people on the stage, Tian Guo quickly restrained his mind and glanced over.Seeing that everyone put away the look of seeing a ghost on their faces, they bowed their heads in satisfaction.

After drinking the first cup of green tea in spring, Eleven and Zuo Xi sat on the bench brought by Tian Guo, holding the hand warmer and smiling gently.From time to time, he glanced at Zuo Xi, who was looking at the small courtyard of Jia's family with a telescope, and from time to time looked at the strange man standing at the front of the stage, dancing and dancing, vividly engraving the words and deeds of Jia Mu and Jia Zheng's mother and son.

Seeing that Zuo Xi was totally oblivious, Eleven took a look at the malt candy in the corner, picked up a piece of malt candy and handed it to Zuo Xi's lips.

'what'

There was a foreign body on the lip, and there was a soft "ah" in the ear, a kind of biological instinct made Zuo Xi subconsciously open his mouth and eat the food that was fed to his mouth.

But chewing and chewing, Zuo Xi realized something was wrong.

Why is it so sticky?

'Um~'

Withdrawing his mind from watching the excitement, Zuo Xi chewed the candy in his mouth a few times and wanted to swallow it, but the candy stuck to his teeth, so Zuo Xi could only keep his mouth shut and twist his lips and tongue, don't look How funny.After a long while, Zuo Xi swallowed all the candy sticking to his teeth, then frowned and looked at Eleven dissatisfiedly, "I won't eat this."

"Sorry, I forgot that you lost a baby tooth when you ate maltose last time."

Hearing this, Zuo Xi covered his mouth and glared at Eleven angrily, "Did that bastard Xue Pan tell you?"

"Who else but him. When you lost your deciduous teeth, you were more cute than before. Brother Xue also thought it was funny, so he just mentioned it to me." Eleven personally handed a cup of tea to Zuo Xi, "Hey, come on Drink some tea and drink up."

You guys are funny, it's her embarrassment and cutting.

"That big mouth, I don't want to talk to him anymore."

Hearing the words on Shishi, he thought for a while and didn't continue to add fuel to the fire, but said several "good" words to Zuo Xi like coaxing people. "Okay, okay, let's ignore him."

snort!

Zuo Xi drank half a bowl of tea in one breath, handed the teacup to Eleven naturally, and continued listening to the report, staring at the commotion in Jia's small courtyard with his eyes.

……

It is said that Mother Jia and her party managed to get to the teahouse on Erli Road, but because she and Mrs. Wang were covered in filth, they didn't have the face to get out of the car, so they sat in the carriage and waited for the boy who fetched the clothes to come back.

Sitting in the carriage, and the carriage stopped moving again, the sour smell was not to mention too strong.Sister Feng could still wait outside the carriage on the grounds that the carriage was narrow, but Yuanyang had to board the carriage again.

While gargling Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang with warm water borrowed from the owner of the teahouse, he carefully cleaned up the dirt on the carriage with his own handkerchief. For mandarin ducks who do dirty work, it is definitely not a small challenge.

The most important thing is that she can't show the slightest dislike~
