[Red Chamber] Daiyu's Rebirth Without Regrets

68,

Wen Renlin drank two sips of Yunnan white tea, and had to admit that although the Rongguo Mansion had fallen, there were still good things, so he immediately said to Jia Lian, "Good tea, you have a heart."

Although Wen Renlin was not very polite, Jia She and Jia Zheng and others still breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, Wen Renlin immediately said: "I heard that the chief housekeeper of your mansion was ransacked and beheaded."

Jia Amnesty's face turned pale, Jia Zheng's face turned ugly, Baoyu just pretended to be ignorant, only Jia Lian stepped forward and said with a smile, "I'm ashamed, the government is not strict, and such scandals have happened, let Your Highness see it as a joke."

Wen Renlin put down the teacup and looked at Jia Lian solemnly, "I want to ask how you made him steal so much money."

Jia Lian was taken aback, looked at Baoyu, Baoyu just pretended not to know, looked at the calligraphy and painting on the wall as if he was studying the landscape painting, Jia Lian saw Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng lowered his head, and immediately understood that he had to talk about it himself. He said cheekily: "I'm ashamed to say that, if someone hadn't sued the officials about this matter, the officials would still be kept in the dark."

Wen Renlin changed his posture, looked at Jia Lian, and asked, "How much money did Lai Da steal?"

Jia Lian simply smashed the pot and said shyly, "More than one hundred thousand taels."

Wen Renlin laughed and said, "I'm afraid it's more than that!"

Of course more than that, Jia Lian shouted in his heart, but he couldn't say that, so he had to say: "There are so many on the surface, but they can't be found out secretly."

After hearing this, Wen Renlin seemed to be talking to himself: "Speaking of which, I want to ask you something."

As soon as these words came out, Jia She and Jia Zheng's eyes lit up, looked at Wen Renlin and said, "Your Highness, just say it."

Wen Renlin smiled lowly, and said, "It's not a big deal, I just want to know the charter of your housekeeper."

Jia Amnesty and the others were taken aback for a moment, but Jia Lian asked cheekily, "I don't know what your Highness means?"

Wen Renlin took a sip of tea and said, "Knowing your regulations, my house can just avoid it."

As soon as these words came out, Jia She and Jia Zheng vomited blood in his heart, Jia She had a thick skin and at best bowed his head in silence, but Jia Zheng's face turned hot and he wanted to dig a hole to get in.

Jia Lian also held his breath and was speechless. Du Du Baoyu laughed beside him, and Wen Renlin asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Baoyu stepped forward and said: "I have met the fifth prince, Jia Baoyu, and I have heard that His Highness the Fifth Prince is straightforward and decisive in his actions. Today, seeing him is really extraordinary."

Wen Renlin twitched his eyebrows when he heard the flattering words, and said, "You are the Jia Baoyu who was born with jade in his mouth."

Seeing Jia Baoyu laughing, he said: "I don't know whether I was born with jade or not. It's just that my jade has disappeared when I was studying in the academy. I don't know where I lost it."

Wen Renlin said: "You can think about it."

Jia Baoyu said: "Your Highness must also know that the Rong Mansion is not as good as it used to be, the masters and servants are all enjoying the wealth, the extravagant things are all extravagant, and all the servants can't do it. I don't know how much I have done in the name of Jia Manor Evil thing." When Jia Baoyu said this, Jia Zheng grabbed him and said sharply, "You bastard, what are you talking about in front of Your Highness?"

It was new for Wen Renlin to hear this, and it was the first time he had heard a son of an aristocratic family bury his family in such a way, so he immediately persuaded: "Baoyu means to smile with me, don't take it seriously."

Jia Zheng glanced at Wen Renlin, let go of Baoyu, and said in a low voice, "Be careful with your skin."

Then Jia Baoyu took a look at Jia Zheng, still raised his head and said to Wen Renlin, "I wonder if Your Highness is interested in visiting the Bingyuanyuan."

Wen Renlin had intended to take a look at it, and when he saw Jia Baoyu mentioning it, he was naturally happy. Originally, Jia pardoned Jia Zheng and wanted to accompany Yi Er, but Wen Renlin said: "I heard that Baoyu just came back from Songshan Academy, and he happened to be with me. Tell me about the academy."

Because of these words, Jia Amnesty and others were naturally inconvenient to accompany them, and because Wen Renlin said that he really missed Daiyu after not seeing her for a long time, they sent someone to Jiamu's side.

So Jia Baoyu, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng accompanied Wenren Lin Daiyu to visit other courtyards.

According to Daiyu's thoughts, she wanted to go back after talking for a while, but she didn't think that Wen Renlin had a lot of things to do and had to go to another courtyard to play, so Daiyu had no choice but to follow him.

Now seeing Baoyu talking next to her, Daiyu was in a state of mental upheaval. She always felt that Baoyu was different, but she couldn't tell what was different.

Seeing Jia Baoyu pointing at the scenery all the way, he told a lot of allusions, and occasionally told two jokes.Daiyu watched coldly from the side, only to think that this well-spoken Baoyu was very strange.

But Wen Renlin pulled Baoyu away faster and faster and talked non-stop. Seeing that the two were walking fast, Daiyu didn't want to follow closely and slowed down slowly. Wang Xifeng stood beside Daiyu and said: "The emperor The concubine should take a good rest."

Daiyu said: "Just take a walk slowly. I don't know which sisters are still living in the yard."

Wang Xifeng looked at the water pavilion in the distance, sighed and said: "Speaking of which, although this courtyard is beautiful, it is really useless. Now there are three girls and sister-in-law Zhu living here."

Daiyu looked at the bleakness in the courtyard, and saw that there was no one coming and going, and said: "But because I came, I avoided it, and there is not even a sweeper in the courtyard."

Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "I will also tell the imperial concubine about this, since Lai Da's accident and many girls, women, and boys have been found out, more than half of the people in this yard have lost more than half of them. It was just to buy some girls , but for some reason, this matter has not been completed until today.”

After hearing this, Daiyu knew that this Jia mansion was different from the Jia mansion she remembered in her previous life. She had heard Gao Qi mention that such a small matter could lead to a big event, but now it seemed that it was true.

But he said that Jia Baoyu led Wen Renlin all the way in, and described all the scenery in this courtyard. Even Wen Renlin had to say that the Provincial Courtyard is really quite beautiful, and it really cost a lot of money. made.

Wen Renlin looked at Jia Baoyu, thinking of how he had just sacked Jia's mansion, and said, "You just said that your mansion is so unbearable, but there is no way to solve it."

Jia Baoyu looked at Wen Renlin and said: "If you can't break it, you can't stand it. Serious illness needs strong medicine."

Wen Renlin saw Daiyu and others coming, so he didn't say more, stepped forward to help him sit on the side, and said: "Young lady is tired."

Seeing that he still looked like this in front of others, Daiyu pretended not to know, and said to Jia Baoyu, "Cousin Baoyu, congratulations."

Jia Baoyu bowed to Lin Daiyu and said, "Thank you, Imperial Concubine."

Daiyu wanted to try him, and said: "I haven't seen cousin Baoyu for a long time, but now he is a good-looking talent. I think it is still unknown when he will come to court in the future."

In Daiyu's impression, Jia Baoyu hated official career the most, and I was afraid that my words would annoy him, but Baoyu smiled and said after hearing this: "Cherish the imperial concubine's auspicious words."

Daiyu turned pale, looked at Baoyu, then turned to Wen Renlin and said, "I don't know what you said just now, can you tell me about it?"

Wen Renlin said: "Your cousin has a lot of insight into family management, he is a talent."

After hearing this, Daiyu looked at Baoyu and saw him glance at Jia Lian. Jia Lian smiled and stepped forward to pull Baoyu's wrinkled clothes.

Daiyu seemed to understand something. This Baoyu was definitely not the Baoyu she knew. That Baoyu hated studying and official career the most, and didn't know anything about family management.

Daiyu watched him chatting and laughing with everyone, and a chill came out of her heart. The more she watched, the more she felt that this Jia Baoyu was not like Baoyu, and she always felt that she was possessed by some evil spirit.
