Cold fragrance and warm jade [Red Mansion Chai Dai]

Xiangyun went home, and so did the people from Lin's residence who came to pick up Daiyu.

Baoyu sent the two away one after another, and then caught a glimpse of Baochai who was also preparing to return to Lixiangyuan.

He rushed up and called out, "Sister Bao..."

There was no time to speak.

Baochai laughed and said, "Aren't you going back into the house yet? You just sent off girl Yun and girl Yan. They have been outside for so long because of the cold, but you came out without even wearing some warmer clothes. "

Hearing what she said, Baoyu rubbed his hands together, knowing that his hands were cold, and laughed quickly: "Fortunately, I didn't go to pull Yun'er and Sister Lin just now. Yun'er is fine, at least I should be stronger. If I Just touched sister Lin, but left her cold, what should I do?"

Baochai smiled and pushed him in the direction of his room: "Since you know it's cold, go back to the room quickly. Don't think that if you get sick before you go out, the master will not take you there. The second master is determined, even if you are on the way to recuperate, I am afraid that you will go with him. You are the one who suffers like this. But not only you suffer, but also the old lady and the wife are worried about you, isn't it a sin? Go back to the house quickly. Could it be that you also asked someone to deliver it?"

Saying that, Baochai took Baoyu and wanted to send him back to the house.

Baoyu really thought about it, but after hearing what Baochai said, he quickly put it out.

Although he also hoped to get closer to Baochai, he was more concerned about Baochai's body, and hurriedly withdrew his hand from Baochai's grasp, and said with a smile: "I should have sent Sister Baochai back. You have been out in the cold for so long." , and it’s time to go back soon. Sister Bao, don’t worry, I’ll go back to the house right away.”

Baochai nodded, and then greeted the two women who had been listening and waiting for instructions, and asked them to send Baoyu back.

Instead, Baoyu asked the two wives to give Baochai away, and went into the house alone.

Baochai was worried, and the two women did not dare to take it lightly. After all, there was another woman following Baoyu.

Not two days later, Baochai heard the rumors from the servants of the Rong family that after Baoyu sent the two younger sisters to their respective homes that day, he returned to his room and sighed and laughed with the girls in the room, but he didn't know What exactly did you say.There were already many maids waiting in Baoyu's room. The only ones who talked and laughed with Baoyu that day were Xiren, Sheyue and Qingwen.

Although Baochai was curious, she couldn't directly ask what happened, so she could only keep it in her heart.

Aunt Xue was busy these two days discussing with Xue Pan when to move back to her home.

The first month is not suitable for moving, so Aunt Xue is just making preparations, after all, she will wait until February to choose an auspicious date.

This is a trivial matter, and the more important thing is the business of the new year after all.After the market opens after the year, Xue Pan also has a lot of work to do.He himself doesn't know how to run a business, but he knows that his mother and sister have decided to call Xue Biao to Beijing, but he feels resentful. He always thinks about what business he should do independently, so as to prove that he is not weaker than Xue Biao.

Aunt Xue and Baochai knew that he was worth a lot, and they were busy these days trying to get rid of him.

Because of this, Baochai didn't even bother to inquire about the affairs of Baoyu's house.

Today is the day when Jia Zheng wants to take Baoyu to set off.

Jia Zheng started from the waterway first.

He set off in the morning, Lin Ruhai had already left the court, and brought Chongyu, but he hadn't set off yet.

Jia Zheng wants to say goodbye to Ruhai since he landed. He wanted to take Baoyu with him, but he saw that Chongyu had boarded the boat first, greeted him, and said that Ruhai was waiting on the shore, and he was going to look for Baoyu.

Jia Zhenglue pondered for a while, and waved Chongyu into the cabin.

When he went ashore, he saw Lin Ruhai standing on the shore, looking at the three ships that were preparing to set off.

One of them was for Jia Zheng and Baoyu, the other was for some accompanying people, and the last boat was arranged by Lin Ruhai. Du Jiazheng and the Lin family knew who was sitting in it.

Lin Ruhai turned to him and said with a smile: "Although parting is imminent, brother will definitely gain something from this trip, and this parting is very worthwhile."

Jia Zheng smiled reluctantly: "Ru Hai, you secretly changed his identity for him, will you really not be discovered?"

Lin Ruhai still smiled and said, "Why should you worry? I can make him go with you, but I also want to go to Jinling. Naturally, I have made all the preparations. And when I get to Jinling, I don't need my brother to take care of me too much. I am still in Jinling. Having relatives and friends is enough to make this plan properly. It's just for my brother to remember the place and know how to find him in the future."

Jia Zheng nodded slightly, but his expression was worried.

In the cabin, Chongyu sat down beside Baoyu who was staring intently out of the window, and said with a smile, "Brother Baoyu, what are you looking at? No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for my sister and the others to come see you off."

Baoyu didn't look back, but shook his head and said, "I'm looking at the small boat behind. It's really strange, there are many people coming in and out of these two boats, busy preparing things. Although there are people preparing for that boat , but it seems that it is only the boatman who is preparing. I have been watching for so long, but I still don’t know who is sitting in it. It stands to reason that we don’t need to bring such a small boat.”

Hearing what he said, Chongyu followed his gaze and suddenly realized.

He knew who was sitting in that boat, but he didn't want to tell Baoyu.

Baoyu finally turned his eyes back to the cabin and landed on Chongyu.

He stared at Chongyu for a moment before asking: "Is sister Lin all right?"

Chongyu laughed and said, "Of course my sister is fine at home, she even ate two bites too much."

Baoyu looked even more dazed.

Chongyu clapped his hands suddenly. Seeing that Baoyu was startled, Fang smiled and asked, "What's wrong with you? My sister came home that day and said that there is something wrong with your expression. Brother Baoyu, are you okay?"

Baoyu shook his head, but nodded again, grabbed Chongyu's hands and asked: "You said that in this world, is there really someone who is irreplaceable to someone, and if you don't have him, how can you not live? "

Chongyu was taken aback.

But Baoyu let go of him, and muttered to himself: "I have been thinking for the past two days, what is the most important thing in this world? What is it? If you really lose it, there will be no hope in life. ? No, it’s not appropriate for me to say that. It’s just that in this world, what really belongs to me? What will I really belong to?”

Chongyu was even more astonished.

He shook his hand vigorously in front of Baoyu's eyes, seeing that Baoyu was still unrepentant, he patted Baoyu's shoulder vigorously again.

Baoyu just raised his eyes, stared at him blankly for a while, and said with a smile: "Yes, Chongyu, you are younger than me, so what's the use of asking you?"

Chongyu glanced ashore, only to see that Lin Ruhai and Jia Zheng were still talking, and the others didn't pay attention to Baoyu who was sitting here.All the servants on this boat were servants of the Rong Mansion, and they had already heard that the second master was a little crazy, so they didn't care.

Chong Yufang sighed secretly in his heart, he was afraid that Lin Ruhai's plan to cultivate Baoyu could only be scrapped in the end.

Ren Lin Ruhai thought so well, perhaps he didn't know Baoyu's ignorance, and her own predestined relationship to enlightenment.

Chongyu still remembers that in the original book, Baoyu was listening to Baochai's play saying that "there is nothing to worry about when you come and go naked", and because Xiangyun said that Daiyu was like a small opera actor, and he gave Xiangyun a wink, he turned back in front of the two girls It didn't go well, Fang once had a sign of enlightenment, but the three of them went to ask him together, and suppressed his thoughts.

But now I don't know what happened, which made Baoyu think so again.

Chongyu clapped his hands again, calling back Baoyu who was about to fall into his own thoughts again.

This time he didn't smile anymore, he just took Baoyu's finger to go out of the boat and go to and from the boat.

"Brother Baoyu, look, on this river, there are countless boats passing by every day. From what you have seen now, how many people can there be? How many things have you experienced? This time, although you want to Going out with uncle, but uncle has official duties, so it is impossible for him to focus on your affairs all day long. Given this opportunity, why don't you take a good look at the world first, and then think about your strange problems? "

If Baoyu has realized something.

Chongyu said again: "For example, your third sister, who wished so much to have the opportunity to look outside, but could only be confined in that house. Since you have this opportunity, you must not waste it."

Just as he was talking, someone came over and said that Lin Ruhai was going to greet Chongyu to go ashore.

Chongyu said goodbye to Baoyu in a hurry, no matter how much Baoyu listened to his words, he just went ashore and stood beside him, watching Jia Zheng boarded the boat, and the three ships were about to set sail.

The curtains of the windows of the smallest ship moved, but were not raised.

Lin Ruhai looked around and saw that the people who saw Jia's family coming to see Jia Zheng off didn't notice, so he was sure.

It turned out that the person sitting on that boat was Jiao Da.

It is also said that Jiao Da was sent to Zhuangzi in the suburbs that day, and met someone who wanted to silence him on the road, but was rescued by Yang Liutong and secretly sent to Lin's residence.

Lin Ruhai returned to the capital, and after dealing with the matters related to his children, he also asked Jiao Da, and from Jiao Da he learned a lot about the chaos of the Jia family, and concluded that the Jia family could not prosper for a long time.

Just because Jia's family is his dead wife's natal family after all, and he had some expectations for Jia Zheng and Baoyu, Fang tried to change something before Jia's family fell completely.

However, he wanted to find a way out for the Jia family.

If you only work with the head of the Jia family, such as Jia Zhen, the patriarch, it is absolutely impossible to persuade Jia Zhen to seek a way out for the family at this time.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai could only settle for the next best thing. After carefully inquiring about Jiao Da's affairs and confirming that he was really a loyal servant to the Jia family, he decided to send Jiao Da back to the Jia family's ancestral home in Jinling, and prepared to let Jiao Da live in the Jia family. The Jia family purchased land near the Jinling ancestral grave.

After all, the Jia family has a daughter who enters the palace. As long as the crime of treason is not serious, and the court has always acted with kindness, they will eventually allow the members of the Jia family to return to their ancestral home, and then pass it on to the family, so that future generations will not be able to revitalize the family. offspring.

In fact, the best way is for the Jia family, who can understand the benefits of setting up fields and running a family school near the ancestral grave.This is really a way out for Jia's officialdom to retreat.

But how could the Rongning Second Mansion, who had been blinded by wealth and only cared about having fun, and the rest of the Jia family who relied on the Rongning Second Mansion's power, understand this truth?Even if you really understand it, you can't implement it.

Lin Ruhai had only discussed it with Jia Zheng, and asked Jiao Da, a loyal servant, to make some preparations first, in case something happened, but he had no way to deal with it.

Lin Ruhai deliberately sought out a post for Jia Zheng to come and go as a student, and also asked Jia Zheng to go to Jinling first, with the same idea.At the beginning of Jiaoda's start, he didn't need to worry too much about whether he could have Jia Zheng's help, as well as his relatives, friends and old friends.

The girls are sure he, but Baoyu... I'm sorry, you still have to become a monk in the end.
