Love of Friends in the Red Chamber

In the afternoon of this day, Jia Cong practiced small script for an hour, only to feel a sore neck and heavy wrists. Seeing the warmth of the winter sun, he took a copy of "Mencius" with him and strolled loosely on the hillside near Tubi Mountain Villa. .Standing on a high rock and looking into the distance, he saw the sparse vegetation and the scattered winter clouds, which made one feel relieved and all worries disappeared.Just when he was breathing out, he suddenly saw a person running far away from the gate of the garden, but it was Jia Huan who hadn't seen him for many days. He saw Jia Huan running, wiping his tears, and rushing into the Aojing Pavilion. .

In the two years since he came here, Jia Cong gradually realized that Jia Huan was not as bad as the original book, but just a child who had been wronged and had nowhere to sue. Treat him like a brother, and the relationship between the two is much closer than that of Baoyu.

Seeing that Jia Huan ran into the Oujing Pavilion in vain, Jia Cong smiled and walked down the hillside quickly, greeting Jia Huan from a distance, and when he came closer, he saw Jia Huan's face was full of tears, his eyes were red from crying Unconsciously surprised, he hurriedly pulled him into his study, and asked Jin'er to fetch water for Jia Huan to freshen up, pour hot tea, and everyone withdrew, Jia Cong asked Jia Huan why.

Jia Huan drank hot tea at this time, his mood calmed down a lot, and he also stopped his tears, so he told Jia Cong the grievance he had suffered.He has always been on good terms with Caiyun and Caixia, the big maids in Mrs. Wang's room. His mother, Aunt Zhao, originally wanted to ask Jia Zheng for these two maids to put in his room. She also had an arm, but who knew Mrs. Wang only let Caixia go out this time, and let her parents marry her, so Aunt Zhao secretly sent someone to tell Caixia Niangguan that Caixia's parents were willing, but she never thought about Sister Feng's companion Wang'er's family. But the son was also optimistic about Caixia, begged Jia Lian and Sister Feng, and abruptly told Caixia to the son of Wang'er's family. The girl Caiyun sent a letter to Aunt Zhao, and Aunt Zhao was anxious for a while, so she forced Jia Huan to ask Mrs. Wang for help. The garden is here.

After Jia Cong listened, he couldn't comfort him. Looking at Jia Huan's irresponsibility, one couldn't help but doubt Caixia's eyes—Jia Huan couldn't even take care of herself, so how could she promise Caixia?He thought for a while, then comforted Jia Huan and said: "But you don't have to worry, there may not be a solution to this matter—maybe your aunt can ask the second uncle, as long as your father speaks, it will be a certainty." Jia Huan But he said: "I'm afraid that my mother will offend my wife deeply if she tells my father about the attack in Brother Bao's house, and I will be the one to suffer."

The two brothers discussed it like this for a while, but they didn't have a clue. In the evening, Jia Cong stayed with Jia Huan for dinner, but Aunt Zhao sent a maid to ask Jia Huan to go back, so Jia Huan had to leave.At night, Jia Cong felt uneasy, always feeling as if something would happen, and couldn't read the article, so he took out the Diamond Sutra that Jia Mu's former son had ordered him to copy, and copied it carefully in regular script, gradually calming down , Jin'er came to remind her twice, then ate some fruit and went to bed.

In the middle of the night, in the dimness, he suddenly heard the voices of people outside. Jia Cong hurriedly put on his clothes and called for someone to ask. Jin'er was on duty tonight. After calling for a long time, there was no one. Cai Nanny and Xiang'er both got up and went out. After inquiring about it, I came back and told Jia Cong that it was the maid of Yihong Court who saw a figure jumping off the courtyard wall, and said it in a decent way. Baoyu was frightened and burned all over. In the middle of the night, I went to Mrs. Wang's place to get the medicine, which alarmed the old lady. Now the garden is full of lanterns and torches, and people from the previous night are searching carefully.Just as she was talking, Jin'er also ran in, her expression was sour, she only said that she had fallen asleep and heard the movement just now.

Jia Cong saw that she was neatly dressed, she didn't look like she just got up from the kang, she didn't speak for a while, and suddenly her heart moved, so she ordered everyone to close the courtyard door and go to rest.He himself quietly walked around outside Jin'er's room door, and heard some noises inside, so he knocked on the window lattice lightly and calmly. After a long while, he heard Jin'er tremblingly asking: "Who is it?" Jia Cong said : "It's me, I yelled before the door was opened."

Jia Cong originally had some doubts in his heart, but his voice was full of certainty, and the people in the room panicked, Jin'er hurriedly opened the door, and knelt down in front of Jia Cong with a plop: "Master, please don't say anything! Jia Cong looked at Jin'er's flustered expression, chuckled, and said, "I'm afraid of being heard, why are you kneeling and begging at this door?" Then he walked into Jin'er's room .Jin'er followed in with a pale face, closed the door, and gently said to the back of the curtain: "The third master knows, you still don't come out and kowtow!" The two people hidden behind the curtain had to come out, kneeling and kowtow like Pound the garlic.

Jia Cong saw that one of them was indeed Jin'er's older sister Siqi, and the other boy was not familiar with him, but he was working for Jia Amnesty.Jin'er knelt down too, and begged, "Our lives are all on the third master's body. I only hope that the third master can survive!" Jia Cong asked earnestly, "Isn't this a chess player? What happened?" What?" Although the chess player was ashamed, he could only beg with tears at this time: "Please let us go. In fact, it has nothing to do with Jin'er. I did such a shameless thing. This is my uncle and brother. Recently, because of My girl was negotiating marriage, and she was afraid that I would marry her and we would never see each other again, so she sneaked into the garden to discuss with me. Unexpectedly, he didn't know the way, so he ran into the Yihong Courtyard of Second Master Bao by mistake, and was arrested. People saw it and shouted out. I heard Xin'er. When I found it, the garden was full of people on duty at night. If anyone saw him, he would die alone, and I couldn't live alone. Here it is. I beg for mercy from the third master." The boy was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and just kowtowed.

Jia Cong saw that although Siqi was terrified, he didn't have much sense of shame, so he was surprised, and said: "So it has nothing to do with me, why should I be such a wicked person? There is only one thing, this is not feasible anymore, if Being bumped into by someone has a lot to do with it." He looked at the boy again, although he was timid, he looked clever, and suddenly remembered that Aunt Lin had said that the young son-in-law who played chess was a useful person, so he laughed and said: "There is only one I will let you go out now, so don't run away in fear of disaster. I have a way to make you two perfect—I will go to my father tomorrow and tell my father to ask you to be a book boy under my name." Naturally, Pan Youan was full of words. Li agreed, and kowtowed to thank you again.Jia Cong ordered him to hide in the room, and when the garden calmed down, he found Zhang Ma, who was guarding the corner gate, and Shiqi dressed him as a girl again, and sent him out of the garden quietly.

Siqi here also has no face to see Jia Cong again, even if Jia Cong used to talk to Yingchun, she also avoided seeing him, and after a few days when she heard that she was ill, Jia Cong just smiled and ignored him, but let his companion Cai An go After seeing Pan You'an, he really asked his father for this lecherous young man when he had time.This is an afterthought.

But he said that there was a constant commotion in the garden that day and night. Although nothing was found, the housekeeper and others hoped that the little maid had missed her, but Qingwen and the others were very sharp in their quarrels. On the pretext that Baoyu was frightened and fell ill, she directly brought the matter to Jia's mother. Jia's mother was furious and asked the reason carefully. Mrs. Wang dared not hide it, so she had to clarify.Na Tanchun was very worried about the people in the garden gathering late at night to gamble, so he took the opportunity to tell Jiamu the whole story.Jia's mother was furious, thinking that this matter was related to the famous festivals of all the people in the garden.In the end, it was found out that there was Yingchun's nursing mother, Wang Nai, at the head of Gambling. Yingchun became more and more boring, and Mrs. Xing also felt ashamed. It's meaningless to show Yingchun mercy and deal with Nanny Wang severely. It's meaningless for all the sisters to hurt their kind.

Afterwards, everyone went to the Yingchun Room to comfort her. Seeing that there were many people, Jia Cong didn't go in. He knew in his heart that the storm was still to come, and the garden was in chaos now. Didn't Mrs. Xing pick up the embroidered spring bag at this time? of it?He was eager to save the catastrophe in the Grand View Garden, so under the pretext of filial piety, he accompanied Mrs. Xing to walk around the garden, waiting for the camera to do things, but he didn't see the shadow of Xiuchun bag at all, but he didn't know that Xiuchun The bag was still picked up by the silly elder sister, and because Mrs. Xing didn't stop him halfway, it was sent directly to Mother Jia.

When Jia Mu saw this thing, she almost fainted, called Mrs. Wang, and threw the purse directly in front of Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang was shocked and angry, ashamed and angry, and knelt down in front of Jia Mu and cried bitterly. He also called Wang Xifeng and ordered her aunt and nephew to find out the details of this thing.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang messed up her position. She didn't know how to meet Jia's mother, so she took the Grand View Garden that night on her own initiative.

That night, Jia Cong hadn't fallen asleep yet, and he was only thinking about how much he had changed the plot—Pan You'an didn't escape, and he ordered the letters from Siqi and the personal belongings he gave to his nephew to be destroyed. Mrs. Xing didn't If you intervene in embroidering spring bags, then the matter of looting the Grand View Garden should not happen...

Just as he was thinking of this, he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside. Nanny Cai opened the door with her maid, and saw Sister Feng leading Zhou Rui's family and other housekeepers to the servant girl's room. Jia Cong hurriedly put on his clothes and asked Why, Sister Feng said calmly: "My wife has lost something important. I'm afraid the maids stole it, so everyone should check it out. This is also a good way to clean them up." Li opened the box and searched it, but found nothing, so Sister Feng took people to go elsewhere, but Jia Cong had already sent Jin'er and Xiang'er to Xiaoxiang Pavilion and Qiushuangzhai to deliver letters.These two places are waiting with candles, which makes Sister Feng feel ashamed.

Afterwards, nothing related to the embroidered spring pouch was found. Mrs. Wang was very puzzled. When Jia Mu heard about this, she was furious, and she and Xifeng were admonished, scolding them for being brainless. I copied it at home, and I was not afraid of being laughed at by others.When Mrs. Wang was about to talk about picking up the girls' things in the garden, she definitely didn't dare to say any more.

It's just that there were still sequelae. First of all, Baochai was even more embarrassed because she was the only one in the house that night and was not searched because she was a relative. To avoid suspicion, she moved out of Hengwuyuan and went back to her home.Furthermore, there were also relatives in Daiyu's room, but they were confiscated, and she was really angry. The day Aunt Lin heard about this, she came to Jia's mansion and decided to take Daiyu home.Although Jiamu and Mrs. Wang tried to persuade her to stay, they couldn't convince Daiyu to go by herself, so Daiyu moved out of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and lived in the newly built Xinxin Pavilion in Lin's residence.Mother Jia turned her anger on Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng again, and became even more angry. Sister Feng was afraid, so she really fell ill and dismissed a lot of family affairs. Baochai returned home. Wan is a widow and it is not easy to show her face. Mrs. Wang is holding her back and she has a headache. She is also sick, but she dare not hide away.
