[Red Mansion] Mrs. Lin, the Buddhist family

Before meeting the Lin family, Jia Baoyu was very unhappy about staying in the Lin family in the future.

But after meeting the Lin family...

The familiar Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment when he saw this person. His appearance and character were all good, and he thought about it for a long time. Waiting for someone! Looking at it now, I have become a muddy pig mangy dog. Fortunately, I was born in the family of the Duke of Hou Men. If I was born in the family of a poor family and a poor eunuch, how could I befriend these three god-like figures? It’s worth living forever!”

The third sister Lin Xian saw a group of children from Jia's family visiting. Although they thought it was strange, they never neglected them.But Xu was used to seeing each other's appearance and temperament, and when he saw a group of young people from Jia's family who were all considered to be of superior appearance and temperament, he didn't feel anything, and he didn't take a second look.

Seeing that the three cousins ​​didn't even look at her side, Baoyu was quite disappointed when she saw that they were only talking to Jia Hu and Jia Zhu.But in an instant, he felt that this was what should be done. After all, he thought he was a mortal clay sculpture, and he was a person who could not stand on the stage.

Thinking of it this way, he felt a lot more comfortable in his heart, and started to call his brother and sister instead, and it seemed that he had been living with the three children of the Lin family, and the conversation was quite affectionate.

Lin Xianzhu and Zhuzhu are fine, and they are not children who have never seen such a behavior before, but they are about the same age as Jia Baoyu, and the Hanhan who Jia Baoyu feels closest to and loves the most is a little confused.

He is lazy by nature, even if he likes reading the most, he would rather put a recliner in the yard, put fruit snacks and other things beside him, and spend his days leisurely.Jia Baoyu's sudden enthusiasm frightened him a lot.

Baoyu moved closer to Hanhan: "What's your brother's name?"

Hanhan blinked, forced a smile and said, "You can just call me cousin Chen or second cousin."

Jia Baoyu immediately became happy: "What books has Cousin Chen read recently?"

Lin Chen couldn't figure it out, and said modestly: "I barely read the Four Books and Five Classics, but I am not as smart as Brother Bao, and I have already passed the exam."

This was a very common conversation, but Jia Baoyu's face changed unexpectedly.

But maybe considering that Jia Zhu was next to him, he didn't get angry on the spot, but leaned into Lin Chen's ear and whispered: "The Four Books and Five Classics are misleading. Not only are they boring, they are not as beautiful and moving as Tang Poems and Song Ci, and the whole book is full of disgusting golden rules. Always advise people to go there…”

"Brother Bao was joking. The words of sages like the Four Books and Five Classics can only make people clear-headed and lead people upward. Even with the passage of time, it is inevitable that some of them are dross in our eyes. Distinguish, if Brother Bao only read some bad things when he read the Tao of Confucius and Mencius, probably, Brother Bao himself has misunderstood it." Lin Chen smiled, but his heart was like a grass and mud horse galloping past.

After all, Lin Chen was young, and he couldn't deal with people he didn't like as well as Lin Xian, so he simply said goodbye to his elder brothers and left with his sister Lin Wan.

Na Jia Zhu didn't pay attention to the two children at first, and didn't think that the two children could have any conflicts.His own younger brother knew that as long as he had an outstanding appearance, even if he had a distasteful temper, Baoyu would only stay away from him, and would not even hate him.

Baoyu has always been tolerant of good-looking people.

But he forgot that his younger brother would restrain his temper in front of good-looking people, but Lin Chen wouldn't dislike Baoyu just because he was good-looking.

Besides, Lin Chen didn't think Baoyu was good-looking.

Therefore, Jia Zhu could only smile awkwardly instead of politely, and watched Lin Wan leave while holding Lin Chen's hand.

After they left, Jia Zhu immediately brought them up to him, "Tell me, what did you do to drive Cousin Chen away?"

Baoyu's face was full of grievances: "I never said anything annoying."

Jia Zhu smiled, not believing a word.

Jia Baoyu could only repeat what he said just now and Lin Chen's answer verbatim.

Jia Zhu: "..." I really want to beat this brother to death!

"Didn't I remind you before I came here that you can't talk nonsense at my aunt's house?" Listen to what Baoyu said?The way of Confucius and Mencius is the golden rule?Is it not as boring as Tang Poetry and Song Ci?The Four Books and Five Classics mistaken people?

If Lin Xian was not still watching, he would have wanted to cry.

How could he be so stupid that he sent Baoyu, a rotten wood full of heresy, to the Lin family in a whimsical way?Not to mention how the Lin family felt about him, would Baoyu really not be beaten to death if he were to be sent to the Lin family?

You know, of the five members of the Lin family, except for the young Lin Chen, the other four are all officials in the imperial court!

It suddenly occurred to him that Baoyu would be closer to Lin Chen, besides the fact that he and Baoyu were not much different in age, there would be a reason why he was the only member of the Lin family who had never been an official in the court, right?

Jia Hu looked on with sympathy.

After thinking for a while, he pulled Jia Lian with a confused expression to his side, and patted him on the shoulder with a happy face: "Lian'er, I suddenly feel that it is a great thing that you are not smart enough to pass the imperial examination."

Jia Lian: "..." Don't think I didn't hear you calling me stupid!

Seeing that Jia Zhu was about to collapse, Lin Xian hurried out to smooth things over: "Brother Bao is still young, just when he doesn't like to study, how can he understand so many principles? As a brother, you just need to give more guidance, don't blame yourself too much Besides, Brother Bao is not all to blame for this matter. My younger brother has been doted on by his family since he was a child, and his temper is a bit perverse, but his nature is still good, and he is only temporarily angry, and he doesn't take it to heart."

Having said that, but Jia Baoyu's impression in Lin Xian's heart still became a bit strange——

It's not that he insulted the sage's words or something. Lin Xian was wise early, so he knew what he wanted very early on. Many things had no special meaning to him, but were just used by him as tools to achieve his goals.Although books such as the Four Books and Five Classics are not reduced to mere tools in his heart, they are not likely to be promoted to the altar by him.

It's just that Lin Xianchang is so old, and he has never seen anyone who degrades the Four Books and Five Classics so much, so he feels strange.As a deviant person, he was more interested in Jia Baoyu.

Jia Zhu looked embarrassed: "You don't have to take what my younger brother said just now, Cousin Xian, I will take people away."

Even if Lin Xian said that Cousin Chen wouldn't care, the two of them obviously had a temper tantrum. If they really lived together in the future, wouldn't they quarrel and fight every day?

Baoyu is the mother's lifeblood, and cousin Chen is also the baby bump of the Lin family. No matter who is wronged by these two people, they may eventually attract their parents to come forward.He didn't want to cause a crack in the relationship between the two families because of two brats with hairless hair.

Lin Xian laughed instead: "What are you worried about? With me here, these two kids won't be able to turn the world around!"

Jia Zhu was taken aback for a moment, and then overjoyed: "Brother Xian... agrees?"

Even if Lin Xian nodded again, Jia Zhu still couldn't believe it, so he simply reached out and pinched Jia Baoyu's face.

"Brother!" Jia Baoyu looked at Jia Zhu with tears in his eyes, "Why are you pinching me?"

Jia Zhu had a smile on her face: "It's nothing, just teasing you."

Jia Baoyu: "..."

After Lin Xian sent the man away, he went straight to Lin Chen's room, told Lin Chen the "good news" with a happy face, and asked him in a particularly mean-spirited way: "I always heard you say that studying alone is too lonely. , I want to find a companion to accompany you. Now that the little companion is delivered to your door, are you happy?"

Lin Chen didn't say anything, turned around, picked up the inkstone and threw it in Lin Xian's direction.

Lin Xian dodged and dodged, laughing as he dodged: "You have been asked to practice martial arts with your mother a long time ago. Look, you can't throw such a big inkstone accurately. It shows how bad your accuracy is."

Lin Chen was almost pissed off by the shameless Lin Xian, but he knew that he couldn't get anything cheap from Lin Xian, so he simply gave up, picked up a book and read it with relish, without even looking at Lin Xian.

This is the attitude that makes Lin Xian most angry——

In front of his family, Lin Xian has always been shameless, even if his wife is pregnant with a child, he still can't calm down.Most of the time, he is also more like a real kid, and the last thing he likes is being ignored by his family.

Lin Xian said something to provoke him again, seeing that Lin Chen was really unmoved, so he simply snatched the book from Lin Chen's hand.

Lin Chen glared at him, but Lin Xian smiled and said nothing.

Lin Chen was surprised: "Jia Baoyu's temperament, if my father knew about it, I would definitely not like it, and I would be even more displeased with my younger brother who will be a classmate with Jia Baoyu in the future. What do you think when you receive the Lin family to study?"

Lin Xian pushed Lin Chen, and when he got out of the way, he picked him up from the chair, sat down, and put Lin Chen on his lap to sit.

Lin Chen didn't care either. He looked at Lin Xian intently with his eyes, waiting for his answer.

Lin Xian's expression became serious: "The Jia family is our natal family after all. If people know that his family's well-known child prodigy is such a bastard, you may even have a prejudice against your younger brother."

Lin Chen looked suspicious: "Really?"

Lin Xian showed a meaningful smile: "Of course, the most important reason is that you are too lazy, brother. You have a smart head, but you study how to live more comfortably all day long, which really makes you jealous. , so in order to add some extra fun to my younger brother's life, my elder brother naturally obliged to send that kid Baoyu..."

Before Lin Xian could finish speaking, Lin Chen turned around and beat him in a rage.

However, he was really too small, no match for Lin Xian's strength, and he grabbed both hands in one go, and he could only listen angrily to his brazen and irritating words.

Lin Chen: "..." I'm unlucky, I will meet such a brother who doesn't like his younger brother in this life, right?

Lin Xian was more and more satisfied with his decision: "When you figure it out and decide to take the imperial examination, brother will find a way to send him away."

Lin Chen said with a straight face: "Do you think I'm stupid? Cousin Zhu has already said that he will immediately pick up Baoyu after he has participated in Qiu Wei. It only takes a few months, I don't believe it, I can't bear it!"

Saying this, Lin Chen secretly planned in his heart that when Jia Baoyu really went to school in the Lin family, he would definitely hit him from every angle, let him know that the name of a prodigy is nothing compared to him, and make him prepare for it. The blow made him feel inferior and uncomfortable, and made him feel unbearable, and then he wanted to leave Lin's house and go back to Jia's house to study.

As for whether his plan is too cruel to Jia Baoyu...

He didn't beat or scold him, and he didn't even plan to talk to Jia Baoyu more, but just let him realize his true level, and realized how shameless what he said before, how could it be cruel?

Thinking of this, Lin Chen's mood immediately improved.

When Lin Xian saw him, he probably guessed that his younger brother was making trouble again, but he knew that Lin Chen was acting in a proper way, so he didn't take it to heart.
