Geng Scroll Volume 34: Things in the Mansion

  Baochai is even more unfavorable to Baoyu than Daiyu. If Daiyu is only dissatisfied with Baoyu's laziness and indulgence, then Baochai is indignant at Baoyu's wanton waste that he clearly has a talent for reading but refuses to make good use of it. .

Although the four families of King Jia Shi and Xue cannot be said to be four in one, they are still supporting each other. One is prosperous and the other is destructive. There is no way for the Xue family to decline. My brother is not up to par, and Xue Biao is not good at studying. Bao Qin's engagement was broken off by the Mei family again, and now she finally has such a good marriage, but everyone feels that she is the weakest among the three-bedroom Feng family when she marries into it.

 Where is the weakness? Isn’t it the current decline of the Xue family?

Now the Wang family seems to be drifting apart, and my uncle seems to be a little alienated from the three families of Jia Shi and Xue. Under such circumstances, the three families of Jia Shi and Xue should be united and work together to advance and retreat together.

But looking at the current situation, the two princes of the Shi family are useless and have been reduced to evading debts. Everyone here in the Jia family thinks that Jia Baoyu, the legitimate son of Dongliang, was smart since he was a child and was born with extraordinary abilities. He was supposed to get ahead, but now he is not. It was because he had no intention of studying and became dissolute, but on the contrary, Jia Huan, who was born as a concubine, had some atmosphere.

Jia Huan obviously cannot inherit the lintel of the Jia family, and the blood closeness is far less than that of Jia Baoyu. If he eventually splits off, he may even have to take away part of the Jia family's resources. In this case, Baochai How not to be extremely disgusted with Baoyu?

Especially Jia Baoyu and people like Jiang Qiguan and Qin Zhong were so clumsy that Baochai, who was always cautious in this regard, could not stand it.

So when I knew that Feng Ziying was going to have a drink with Baoyu, Jia Huan and Jia Lan, I couldn't help but remind him.

"Okay, sister, don't worry. I have a sense of responsibility for my brother." Feng Ziying smiled, "Although Baoyu has no intention of studying, his character is not too bad. As for the things that my sister is worried about, isn't it the same for my eldest brother before? But It’s just the nature of a young man to be wild from time to time. As long as he doesn’t indulge, it will be fine. As he grows older, he will naturally restrain himself..."

Baochai and Baoqin both blushed. Xue Pan was no less generous than Baoyu before, but Xue Pan has restrained himself a lot after getting married. He took in a good concubine and was managed by the Xia family girl. Obediently.

Baochai said angrily: "My eldest brother has been ridiculous since he was a child, but now he has changed a lot. However, Baoyu has been regarded as a treasure by his family since he was a child, but now he has become a prodigal. Now his uncle is still in the capital. If he goes there after the year Jiangxi, who can control him?"

"You mean, my sister, it's my turn to take care of Baoyu?" Feng Ziying laughed, "The name is unfair and the words don't make sense. Besides, Uncle Shishi is still here, so can't my aunt and ancestors take care of it too?"

“I’m afraid I don’t have that thought. As for my aunt and ancestors...” Baochai shook his head.

Bao Qin also found it interesting when he saw his sister quarreling with Feng Ziying. He felt that his sister was not talking about Bao Yu, but felt that she had not said enough and needed to talk for a while. She and her sister were getting married in two months.

When you enter Feng's house, you may no longer be able to speak so casually.

"Brother Feng, my sister is just worried about you. As for Brother Bao and Brother Huan, they are in charge of their own affairs. Outsiders can only say a few words. If you say more, you will be overstepping.

It's not beautiful." Bao Qin paused and said: "If my uncle is sent to the south, he will definitely consider this matter. If my uncle is entrusted with me, there will be no way for Brother Feng to act as his substitute. But even so, outsiders will still be there after all.

We are separated by one floor, but in the final analysis, we have to go to their families, especially Brother Bao, to feel at ease."

 Bao Qin's heart was so bright that Feng Ziying and Baochai couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Baochai felt that it was a stroke of genius to draw Baoqin into her camp. This girl was smart and smart, and her temper was more direct and straightforward than hers. There were some things that she couldn't handle, but she could handle them with ease.

Feng Ziying was thinking, with Baoqin's temperament, how could he be so disgusted in the eyes of Maid Daiyu? Is it true that the two families are already completely different and incompatible with each other? Isn't this not the case?

"Sister Qin is right. Brother Yu will have a good talk with Baoyu when he finds an opportunity. He also has some ideas now. Brother Yu also hopes that he can imitate Mr. Hairuo and become famous among the literary circles. Even if he cannot be an official,

As long as you have a reputation among the scholars, there won't be any successors in the Rongguo Mansion in the future."

Feng Ziying's words were very pleasant to the ears. Baoqin nodded happily, but Baochai didn't quite believe it, but naturally she wouldn't say anything in front of Feng Ziying.

  ******

This was the first time Xiren saw Erye preparing a meal with such care, and it was still in Yihong Courtyard.

In her impression, Master Bao's attitude towards Uncle Feng has never been close to that of one. From the earliest hatred and disgust, to fear mixed with disgust, to jealousy mixed with awe, and now it has gradually turned into respect, but

It is absolutely impossible to say that we are close and friendly.

However, Xiren also knows that some things are no longer the responsibility of Mr. Bao. Today, Mr. Feng comes to visit. Even the two masters personally accompany them and receive them in the Rongxi Hall. They also hold a special banquet for them at noon.

The Second Master Bao, the Third Master Huan and Lan Geer could only stay together, which shows the power of Uncle Feng.

"Brother Feng hasn't arrived yet?" Jia Huan didn't like coming to the Grand View Garden, so he stepped into Yihong Courtyard and asked.

On the one hand, he was not close to the eldest sister, and he also knew that the eldest sister only had Brother Bao in her heart. On the other hand, he also felt that the people living in this garden were all girls' families, and they were too feminine.

I was not used to Jia Baoyu being so pampered and having eight or nine maids waiting on him, which was too girly. In addition, the Grand View Garden originally had various rules, so I was even more reluctant to enter the garden.

Similarly, Yihongyuan doesn’t like the third master Huan very much. The master here is the second master Bao. As a third master from a concubine, what qualifications does he have to make a show here?

In the past, he was just a little transparent, but as Mr. Huan Sanye passed the scholar examination and went to Qingtan Academy to study, he went straight to the role of the Jia family's seed scholar. Naturally, the maids in Yihong Court were even more worried.

Their hearts were filled with panic.

 On the other hand, Xi Ren, Qiu Wen, and She Yue still know the rules and propriety. Although they don't like to see the third master Huan, they still have to do enough on the surface.

“The third master is here? Uncle Feng hasn’t arrived yet. Come this way, the third master will sit down first. I’ll make a cup of tea for the third master.”

 She Yue accompanied her with a smile, seeing Jia Huan's impatient expression, she was also afraid of provoking this guy.

Even the eldest master now praises this guy as a scholar. His status in the house has risen rapidly. Although the masters don't mind, people now have to pay attention.

"She Yue, make a pot of Laojun Mei. Brother Feng likes to drink this. It's almost time for him to arrive." Although Jia Huan has an impatient temper, he is not the kind of person who loses his temper indiscriminately. He knows that She Yue is also a treasure.

One of the eldest maids of the second brother, she is quite polite.

"Okay." She Yue was also a little surprised. It seemed that the hot-tempered Third Master Huan had a high degree of respect for Uncle Feng.

Just as he was talking, Jialan also arrived, and he brought another guy with him who was similar in age.

“Brother Cong, why are you here too?” Jia Huan was quite surprised and stared at Jia Lan.

Jia Lan shrank and huffed: "Third uncle, the great grandfather met me and asked me to call Uncle Cong, so that Uncle Cong can also admire the master, and also ask the master to give Uncle Cong more encouragement in the future."

Jia Huan clenched his teeth and snorted in his nostrils, but he couldn't get angry.

This Jia Lan is the one looking for trouble. Originally, Jia Huan was a little unhappy with Jia Lan dividing his position in Brother Feng's mind, but now there is actually another Jia Cong.

Brother Cong is also a moderate figure in the family. He studied with Jia Lan in the clan school, but his temperament is much more lively than that of his nephew Jia Lan. He is used to pleasing the teacher, but he is also a member of the clan.

I am often praised in my studies, but I don't know how good my reading is.

"I've met Third Brother." Jia Cong was quite astute. He turned around and saluted Jia Huan. Jia Huan glanced at Jia Cong and nodded, "That's good, Brother Cong. I heard that you are studying in ethnic studies.

I'm also very concerned about you. Brother Lang often mentions you. It's a rare opportunity for Brother Feng to attend the banquet today. You must also abide by the rules and don't be rude in the scene..."

Jia Cong looks somewhat similar to Jia Huan, with both pointed faces and thin cheeks. However, Jia Huan may look gloomier because of her age, while Jia Cong looks a little more out-of-the-box.

"Don't worry, third brother. I will follow you, but third brother will follow his lead." Jia Cong said with a smile.

Jia Huan took a deep look at this guy, this is Yihongyuan, Baoyu is the leader, but this guy pushes himself very high and is very good at pleasing people. Maybe Baoyu will come soon, I'm afraid he will have to do it again

They talked around Baoyu.

But Jia Huan didn't care. Jia Cong, like himself, was a concubine. If he couldn't read the book, everything would be in vain. Even if he had some cleverness, he would just be tossing around in the shallow pond of Jia Mansion.

"Oh, brother Cong is here too?" Baoyu stepped into the yard and saw that in addition to Jia Huan and Jia Lan, there was also Jia Cong. He was also a little surprised, but he had always been a rough-tempered man and didn't think much about the whole story. He just nodded.

Head: "It's okay, you and Brother Feng are not familiar with each other yet. It's a good time to get to know each other today."

“Brother Bao, did Brother Feng say when will you come over?” Jia Huan was already impatient.

"Lu Xueguang asked someone to bring a letter over, saying that Brother Feng was drinking tea with Miss Xing and might come over a little later." Jia Baoyu looked a little uncomfortable again, but he didn't dare to be in front of Jia Huan.

exposed.

Xiuyan is also a pretty girl. Even though Baoyu has no other thoughts, she still admires her, but the other party has never invited her to Lu Xueguan, and how come Brother Feng will be invited to her place?

Lu Xuegang drank tea?
