[Red House] No one knows that it is lychee

Chapter 102 Baked Precious Shrimp with Scallions

Xue Pan is usually a foolish and bold person. After serving in the army for such a period of time, even Xue Pan has been corrected a lot.The educational significance of war is much greater than that of Lin Ruhai. Xue Pan is now very economical even when eating. Although there are still some habits that cannot be changed, he is really a lot more honest.

At this moment, Xue Pan was lying on the side of the car window, looking out greedily.He hadn't been to the capital for a long time. Although it wasn't his hometown, Jinling, it was much more friendly than the border town over there.

But Jia Baoyu sat in the carriage in a daze, with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

On the contrary, he was not as emotional as Xue Pan.

Jia Baoyu and Xue Pan experienced the war together, and he saw what Xue Pan saw. To be precise, Jia Baoyu may have seen a little more.But unlike Xue Pan, Jia Baoyu suppressed all his emotions in his heart.She acted as if she hadn't seen it, eating and sleeping normally every day, forcing herself to integrate into life, and at the same time actively helping the wounded soldiers.

If the Xining County King hadn't discovered that Jia Baoyu's mental state was not right, Jia Amnesty might not have found out how much psychological pressure Jia Baoyu was under when he came back.

Fortunately, after Chen Yuetang had a deep talk with Jia Baoyu, Jia Baoyu became much calmer, but also became silent.

Xue Pan and Jia Baoyu returned to the capital together, but now that they really arrived in the capital, Jia Baoyu felt like a dream.

——It has been too long since he left Rongguo Mansion.

The carriage continued on, all the way to Rongguo Mansion, the smile on Xue Pan's face couldn't be stopped, and people started to commotion.Seeing that he was about to reach the place, Xue Pan couldn't help but poke Jia Baoyu: "Brother Bao, do you think your parents will be happy to see you?"

Jia Baoyu smiled faintly: "It should."

"Hey, brother Bao, you are wrong." Xue Pan was a little unhappy, "Look at your appearance, you don't look like you are going home. You should be happy when you go home."

Jia Baoyu propped his chin and rolled his eyes: "Who told you I'm not happy?"

While the two were talking, the carriage stopped quietly. Xue Pan looked out, and suddenly became happy: "Brother Bao! We are here!"

Jia Baoyu followed Xue Pan out of the carriage, looked at the plaque of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Baoyu raised his head and blinked, suddenly felt a heat in his eyes.

he's returned home.

-

In the Rongguo Mansion, Mother Jia was chatting with Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing.It's not that there is nothing wrong, Mrs. Xing is discussing Yingchun's marriage with them today.

"The girl Yingchun grew up beside me. I have no luck, and I can't give birth by myself. The girl Yingchun is just like my own daughter." Mrs. Xing didn't have much knowledge, but she spoke the truth from the bottom of her heart. "I just thought that whether this family is rich or not is second to none. You must treat the girl well. It would be better if the people in the family are simpler."

Mother Jia could tell that Mrs. Xing was indeed thinking about welcoming the Spring Festival, she couldn't help but nodded and said, "That makes sense, we're not the kind of people who are short of money, and when choosing a son-in-law, character naturally comes first .”

This matter has nothing to do with Mrs. Wang, she was also happy to say good things, so she also chimed in: "That's exactly the case, the most important thing is for this young master to make progress, and such a dude must never do it."

The three women were talking when they suddenly heard a commotion outside.There is also a faint increase in the human voice, which cannot be ignored.Mother Jia called Yuanyang with some displeasure: "Go, go outside and have a look, what's going on so noisy."

Yuanyang went out as promised, and not long after, Yuanyang came back panting, her excited expression was completely different from her usual calm look.

Yuanyang didn't even have time to greet Jia Mu, she said directly: "Old ancestor! Second lady! Second Master Bao is back!"

"...What did you say?!" Mother Jia let go of the crutch in shock, "Who's back?"

Mrs. Wang was more obvious. She ran out directly, not caring about her identity at all. Mrs. Wang was full of eyes that she could see Jia Baoyu sooner.

Almost at the moment Mrs. Wang had just left the door, a young man stepped through the gate and walked into the old lady's yard.Madam Wang looked at the young man, tears streaming down her face.

She cried bitterly and rushed over, hugging the young man: "Baoyu, my poor Baoyu, you have been away for so many years, why are you so thin!"

Mrs. Wang cried sincerely, tears wet the young man's clothes.The young man looked down at Mrs. Wang in embarrassment, pondered for a long time, and finally chose to tell the truth: "That... Auntie, I am Xue Pan, and Brother Bao is behind me."

Mrs. Wang:? ? ?

She suddenly raised her head, looked at the young man she was holding, and at the boy behind Xue Pan, and let go of her hand suddenly.

-

It was a very touching reunion time, but it became a little awkward because Mrs. Wang recognized the wrong person.

But fortunately, Yuanyang, as Jia Mu's big maid, is still capable. She arranged everyone in a few words, and then helped Mrs. Wang, who was "excessively excited and dizzy", go to the back room. I forgot to give Jia Baoyu a look - I didn't hurry to follow.

Jia Baoyu was actually very annoyed by Mrs. Wang's excited appearance on weekdays, but after seeing her for such a long time, she suddenly found that her mother was still the same, and Jia Baoyu couldn't help but want to laugh.

Xue Pan was still embarrassed: "Brother Bao, is Auntie okay?"

"Don't worry, my mother is in good health," Jia Baoyu unceremoniously dismantled his mother, "She just feels a little embarrassed and flustered."

Only then did Xue Pan feel relieved, and followed Jia Baoyu to the back room.

Mother Jia has also confirmed the news of Jia Baoyu's return, and she is also very excited.It's just that the old lady's physical condition does not allow her to be as excited as Mrs. Wang, so she can only wait in the room.

Mother Jia stared at the door, then saw a tall young man walk in, walked up to her, knelt down and kowtowed.Jia Baoyu suppressed the gushing emotions in his heart, lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Old ancestor, I'm back."

Mother Jia was in tears, and she tried to help Jia Baoyu up with trembling hands, but her legs gave way and she almost collapsed.Everyone exclaimed for a while, and hurried forward to help Jiamu up.Mother Jia still refused to let go of Jia Baoyu, she just looked at him without blinking and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, just come back, just come back."

Looking at the white hair on Jia Mu's head, Jia Baoyu was also touched in his heart.The tears that had been suffocated just now outside the gate of Rongguo Mansion finally couldn't hold back, and fell down in a rustle: "Old Ancestor, Baoyu is back!"

For a while, there was a lot of crying in the room, and Xue Pan stood beside him, feeling that he was out of tune with the atmosphere of this room.

He wanted to leave a little bit, but he didn't know where to go. Seeing Jia Baoyu and the old lady crying at last, Xue Pan had a rare moment of wit, and hurried forward and said, "Old lady, don't cry. It's a good thing that Brother Bao is back, crying too much will hurt your body, we should laugh."

Mother Jia felt that her words were reasonable, so she tried her best to hold back her tears.She wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, looked at Jia Baoyu in front of her again and said with a smile: "Grow up, really grow up, just lost so much weight?"

Jia Baoyu forced out a smile: "Old Ancestor, this is a long story."

Mother Jia smiled: "Forget it, let's save such a long sentence and talk about it later. Are you tired from the journey? Hurry up and order the kitchen to cook, and call your sisters and sisters, we Rongguo Mansion will be together today Have a meal."

After much difficulty, Jia's mother shifted her attention away from Jia Baoyu.She looked at Xue Pan beside her, a little surprised: "You are..."

Xue Pan had already been trained in the border town, and he directly reported his family name: "Old ancestor, I am Xue Pan, from the Xue family."

Jia's mother understood immediately, she felt very strange: "This... How did you and Baoyu meet together? Good boy, do you know that your sister and your mother are living in this mansion?"

Xue Pan was also shocked: "This... Before I left, I vaguely heard that my mother said that I would go to the capital, but..."

But it didn't say that he wanted to live in Rongguo Mansion!

Seeing Xue Pan's appearance, Jia's mother knew that he didn't know, so she hurriedly called the maids around her to invite Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai over.

-

Xue Baochai was talking to Lin Daiyu at this time, and when she was going to enter the palace in the spring of next year, she would inevitably be a little nervous, talking to Lin Daiyu, the two of them could at least be able to untie each other.

As a result, when the two of them were talking happily, Lizhi ran in: "Miss Bao! Miss Bao!"

Xue Baochai laughed at her: "What's the matter? Look at your reckless appearance, is there gold in front of you?"

"Miss Bao! What a happy event!" Li Zhi smiled, "Uncle Xue is back!"

Xue Baochai stood up suddenly, she couldn't believe it: "What did you say?"

"Really! It's been spread all over the front yard. Second Master Bao and Uncle Xue came back together, and they are in the old lady's room right now!" As soon as Li Zhi finished speaking, someone came outside again: "Miss Bao! Miss Bao The old lady is looking for you! Hurry up and go to the old lady's yard!"

Xue Baochai lost her usual composure at all, she didn't care who she was looking at, and she didn't care whether her makeup and clothes were suitable, she lifted her skirt and rushed outside.Ying'er hurriedly followed behind, Lin Daiyu winked at Lizhi, and Lizhi followed.

Xue Baochai ran outside Lin Daiyu's courtyard, only to remember that he was still in the Rongguo Mansion, so he couldn't be too arrogant.She tried her best to slow herself down, but because she was eager to see Xue Pan, she walked faster and faster.Lizhi trotted all the way behind before following.

After a while, Xue Baochai had already arrived outside the old lady's yard. At this time, even her mother hadn't come yet.Obviously already outside the door, Xue Baochai stood still with some hesitation—she hadn't seen Xue Pan for a long time, and at this moment she felt a sense of being close to home.

Luckily, Lizhi followed, and she went straight up and said to the maid in the old lady's yard, "Hurry up and report, Miss Bao is here."

The little maid at the door hurried into the house, and Xue Baochai took advantage of this time to calm down, and then walked into the yard.

As soon as she stepped into the old lady's yard, she saw a young man coming out of the house.This young man looks a little strong, but he is not obese. On the contrary, because of his rich appearance, this appearance still looks a bit dignified.

When the young man saw Xue Baochai, he immediately shouted happily: "Sister!"

"...Brother?" Xue Baochai looked at Xue Pan incredulously, "Brother, why did you lose so much weight?"

Xue Pan was immersed in the joy of seeing his relatives at the moment, and he just laughed when he heard Xue Baochai's question: "What's the matter, my good sister, you see my brother has lost weight, has he become more graceful? "

Xue Baochai pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My brother has always been a good-looking talent."

Xue Pan stood there silly and happy. The brother and sister were equally excited, but they were also not good at expressing. In the end, Aunt Xue, who came late, hugged Xue Pan and began to cry, and Xue Baochai began to cry.

No one could know how worried Xue Baochai was about Xue Pan's safety.This is the only male in their Xue family. If something happened to Xue Pan, Xue Baochai thought to himself that no matter how capable he was, he would not be able to support the entire Xue family.

Fortunately, Xue Pan is back intact, and looks more and more mature.Xue Baochai felt relaxed for a moment, it was bitter and sweet, and she was a little stupefied.

For a moment, the entire Rongguo Mansion was full of joy, and Li Zhi couldn't help sighing when she witnessed all this - going around and around, those who should meet again will still meet again.

She watched Xue Baochai leave with Xue's family, and then returned to Lin Daiyu's yard.Lin Daiyu was practicing calligraphy at the moment, and when she heard Lizhi coming in, she didn't raise her eyes, she just asked, "Sister Bao saw Big Brother Xue?"

"I see." Li Zhi replied, "Miss Bao seems to be a little silly with joy."

"Her family was more difficult than mine. Brother Xue is the mainstay of their Xue family. After coming back after such a long time, Sister Bao has also relieved a burden in her heart." Lin Daiyu sighed slightly, "Where is the second brother?"

Lizhi thought about Jia Baoyu, who was overwhelmed by the crowd just now, and was at a loss, and tried hard to pick a word: "It looks very energetic."

Lin Daiyu glanced at her, and couldn't help laughing: "Forget it, I know you won't get anything out of it. Just now the old lady came to pass the news, and we will have dinner in the main hall tonight, and we also want to go together Go, get ready."

Lizhi responded, and when she was about to go out, she looked at Lin Daiyu again—the girl didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations, and she didn't seem to care much about this matter.

God knows that as soon as Lizhi left the house, Lin Daiyu dropped the brush in her hand.Sitting on the couch, she took a breath and murmured, "This is really great..."

Jia Baoyu is back, and Jia Amnesty is also on his way back to the imperial court, so the man who traveled with the army... I think he should be fine, right?

Lin Daiyu was startled, she quickly shook her head lightly, trying to get rid of those messy thoughts - what does it matter to her whether that person comes back or not?

I just don't know what happened to the camellias in the princess mansion.

In the old lady's yard, Jia Baoyu and his family members finally finished talking, and then asked the old lady to see his father Jia Zheng.

When Mother Jia heard this, she couldn't help frowning.It wasn't that she didn't know that the relationship between Jia Baoyu and Jia Zheng was tense. Now that Jia Baoyu had just arrived home, he said he was going to see Jia Zheng. While Jia's mother was relieved, she was also afraid that the two of them would quarrel.

This question also troubled Mrs. Wang. When she heard her son say this, Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "Then ask Yu Chuan'er to go with you. You haven't been home for so long. I'm afraid you don't even remember the way." .”

Yu Chuan'er has now replaced Jin Chuan'er as the maid beside Mrs. Wang.If you go with Jia Baoyu, it's not to show him the way, but to make it easier for Jia Zheng to beat Jia Baoyu, so that someone can come back and inform him.

Jia Baoyu naturally knew Madam Wang's intentions, but he refused with a smile: "No mother, I can go by myself."

With that said, Jia Baoyu bowed again and went out.Yu Chuan'er wanted to follow, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang: "Forget it, since Baoyu doesn't want you to go, you can stay."

Mrs. Wang looked at the door with complicated eyes, and sighed faintly: "Old lady, Baoyu has grown up."

Mother Jia nodded sympathetically.

In the study outside, Jia Zheng happened to be taking a bath today and was also at home.He had already heard the news of Jia Baoyu's return, and wanted to see his son, but he couldn't save face.

——He is Lao Tzu, where is Lao Tzu rushing to see his son?

But after not seeing his youngest son for so many years, Jia Zheng thought to himself that he really missed him. For a while, two thoughts were fighting in his head, and Jia Zheng became entangled.

When Jia Baoyu arrived, what he saw was Jia Zheng who was struggling.

Jia Baoyu held back his smile and went straight into the room: "Father?"

Jia Zheng was turning his back to him, and when he heard Jia Baoyu's voice, he was startled and almost dropped the book in his hand.Fortunately, he quickly restrained himself, tried his best to pretend to be a strict father, and coughed dryly: "You're back?"
