Chapter 231 Jia Zheng: What an evil beast! Bring a stick!
In the Rongqing Hall, following Sister Feng's command to "let the banquet begin", everyone stood up and planned to go to the small hall to have dinner. At that time, they saw the mother-in-law and the maids carrying various dishes, walking back and forth between the screens.
.
Finally, someone discovered something was wrong with Baoyu. Baoyu stood there stupidly, staring at Daiyu in silence, without saying a word. On his face that looked like a full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, two lines of tears flowed silently down his cheeks.
In fact, Baoyu's feelings for Daiyu are not just childhood sweethearts, but also have some other meaning. Otherwise, they would not have thrown jade and picked up the small characters when they first met.
It can be said that Daiyu has a different status in Baoyu's heart than Ying, Tan, Xi and other golden hairpins.
Therefore, after "misunderstanding" Daiyu's "empathy" at this moment, Baoyu felt like he had lost his soul.
Of course, Baoyu still doesn't know the reason at this moment.
"Second Master, let's go have dinner." Xiren called softly from the side with a smile on her face, and pulled Baoyu's arm. However, after a long while, she saw that Baoyu was not moving at all.
Seeing this, a bad feeling surged in Xiren's heart, his face gradually turned pale, and he hurriedly called out: "Second Master, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, Mrs. Wang heard the movement here and quickly turned her head. She saw Baoyu's eyes were lost in thought and he stood there blankly.
He was startled, his face suddenly changed, he turned around and reached out to pull Baoyu's arm, only to find that it was as if an old tree had taken root and could not be moved at all. His heart sank to the bottom and he said urgently: "My son,
What's wrong with you? Don't be a frightened mother?"
But I saw that Baoyu's eyebrows and eyes were in a trance, as if they were clay sculptures and stone statues, motionless.
Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she burst into tears: "My son, if something happens to you, what will you do as a mother?"
Jia's mother also turned around and saw Baoyu standing there stupidly. With a click, his old face was full of sorrow. She stepped forward quickly and said softly: "My Baoyu, what's wrong?"
Jia Heng's face also paused slightly, and he turned back to look at Baoyu, but he didn't know what he was up to. After looking at it for a moment, he frowned.
You won’t break the jade this time?
Modification is crazy.
In fact, since the last time at Ningguo Mansion, Baoyu, who was interrupted from casting spells, has never thrown jade in front of Jia Heng, even if he dared to write a review.
The reason is simple. When children's rolling around doesn't work, they rarely use the same tricks again.
"My Baoyu, hurry up and invite the doctor." Jia Mu had no intention of entertaining Jia Heng at this moment. She just called Sister Feng who had a complicated expression on the side.
The red phoenix eyes under Sister Feng's Liu Ye eyebrows blinked, and her eyes followed Baoyu's line of sight and traced back to Daiyu. As her mind whirled, she suddenly realized and said softly: "Old ancestors, please don't rush to call the doctor. Brother Bao, he
My mind must have been bent somewhere."
Mother Jia looked suspicious, glanced at Sister Feng, then suddenly looked at Daiyu, and said in surprise: "It's Yu'er..."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan and others all turned their attention to Daiyu.
Daiyu: "???"
What does this have to do with her?
She didn't talk to Brother Bao just now...
At this time, Xiangyun came close, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Baoyu's eyes. He frowned with heroic eyebrows and said, "Brother Ai (2), why are you staring at Sister Lin?"
However……
Baoyu, however, said nothing. After Xiangyun shook his arm, after a while, he uttered three words from his mouth: "Sister Lin..."
When Mrs. Wang heard this, her heart trembled, she raised her head and looked at Daiyu with a pair of cold and indifferent eyes.
This niece of hers is just like her sister-in-law... she is a troublemaker!
Jia Mu looked puzzled and asked anxiously: "What happened to your sister Lin?"
Baoyu was speechless for a long time, only saying the words "Sister Lin" repeatedly in her mouth.
Don't embarrass Baoyu, because Baoyu doesn't know what's wrong with him.
Daiyu was stared at by pairs of people in Rongqing Hall who were either indifferent, scrutinizing or suspicious. Her face was already as pale as snow, and her heart was filled with sourness. She lowered her head gently, and a long-lasting scene immersed in the depths of her memory appeared.
When he first came to Shenjing, in the same Rongqing Hall, Brother Bao threw Jade to the ground when he had a disagreement. At that time, among the crowd, she was the only one sitting on a chair, helpless and scared...
Daiyu held a handkerchief in her hand to cover her small face, which was as white as the paper. The circles under her eyes turned red without knowing it.
Tan Chun was keenly aware of the helplessness in the girl's heart, and her handsome eyebrows were covered with a layer of worry. She held Daiyu's hand at the side, as if giving encouragement.
The Rongqing Hall fell into an eerie silence for a moment.
However, at this moment, a clear cough suddenly came from the Rongqing Hall. This cough was like the winter sun, dispersing the icy cold atmosphere in the entire Rongqing Hall.
Jia Heng looked calm, walked a few steps, and stood in front of Baoyu, just blocking Baoyu's dull gaze as he stared at Daiyu. His face was indifferent, he stretched out his right hand, gestured with two fingers, waved it in front of Baoyu's eyes, and said quietly
Said: "Baoyu, how many are these?"
Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, Li Wan: "..."
Explore the spring, welcome the spring, cherish the spring: "..."
Daiyu: "???"
The misery and helplessness in his heart dissipated slightly, and a pink and pretty face was filled with blood, and his starry eyes looked at that person.
Mrs. Wang's face turned cold as she said, "Uncle Heng, what do you mean? Is Baoyu crazy or stupid?"
When Sister Feng heard what Mrs. Wang said, she secretly thought something bad. She quickly smiled and smoothed things over and said, "Brother Heng, you are well-informed. Did you see something about Baoyu?"
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned and looked at the young man.
Mother Jia frowned and said, "Brother Heng, this is..."
As he spoke, he quietly tugged on Mrs. Wang's sleeve.
"The symptoms of being unable to speak and having straight eyes... look like a stroke." Jia Heng said slowly with an indifferent expression.
Jia Mu: "..."
Everyone else looked at each other.
Tan Chun frowned and said: "Brother Heng, the medical book says that strokes are not only common among older people?"
Sister Feng had a strange look on her face. Looking at the serious look of the young man across from her, Danfeng had a trace of suspicion in her eyes. Why did she feel like she was taking a bad turn?
"Whether it's a stroke or not..." Facing everyone's gaze, Jia Heng frowned and said, suddenly he shouted in Baoyu's ear: "Come here, call Mr. Zheng over."
Baoyu trembled with fright, as if he was shocked, walked a few steps to the side, looked at Daiyu, and said: "Sister Lin, you and Uncle Heng are naughty. If you don't like me, we will eat from the same table."
We slept together in the same bed, and he came later, so how could you shed tears for him and alienate me."
When everyone in the Rongqing Hall heard this, they all looked at each other and jumped up and down at the words.
Mrs. Wang's face was gloomy, and she glanced at Daiyu, who was already looking frightened and uneasy. She felt disgust in her heart. It turned out to be this troublemaker.
Daiyu's beautiful face was already a frosty white. Facing the gazes of pairs of eyes, she felt miserable and sad in her heart.
What are you talking about, Brother Bao? When did she get naughty with Uncle Heng? Why else should she shed tears for him? Brother Bao...
If you say this in front of so many people, where will her face go?
At this moment, everyone not only looked at Daiyu, but also glanced suspiciously at Jia Heng aside. They couldn't help but make random guesses in their minds, which were immediately reflected in their facial expressions.
"Haha..." Jia Heng's face was as gloomy as water, and he sneered but said nothing.
There was also a sense of absurdity in my heart. Was Baoyu talking about Baochai?
However, this "haha" sounded like the cold wind of winter in Rongqing Hall.
When Jia Mu heard this sneer, her heart sank, and she said anxiously: "Brother Heng, don't be upset, children are talking and playing, there is no difference between them."
Not only did Jia Mu's heart thump, but Mrs. Wang also felt a chill in her heart.
Because...he is so angry that he laughs instead!
Not someone who was involved in the Rongqing Hall, I can't describe the biting coldness and the feeling of the air temperature suddenly dropping several degrees.
This is no ordinary young man, he is a hot and powerful man in Shenjing City. Just the day before yesterday, he started a bloody massacre in Ningguo Mansion!
A man who holds the emperor's sword, the handle of life and death, lives in eight seats, and makes a hundred promises at the same time!
Sister Feng's melon seed face also turned pale, and she quickly smiled and said: "Old ancestor, maybe it's because I didn't bring Baoyu with me to the wedding ceremony today, so Baoyu said that Sister Lin is not naughty with him? The two of us grew up together, you
You also know that if you don't see each other for a day, you will get into trouble, and this is not the second time."
After hearing this, Mother Jia's face changed, she sighed, looked at Baoyu and said with a smile: "Baoyu, today it is your elder brother Heng who is taking your sister to pray for blessings. How can I be alienated from you?"
At this time, Daiyu and Yingying stepped forward, walked a few steps slowly, and stood right next to Jia Heng.
The girl's starry eyes under her smoky eyebrows looked at Baoyu quietly, and said softly: "Brother Bao, I was just thinking that the Double Ninth Festival will be in a few days, and I was thinking about my family in Yangzhou. I was sad for a while, not because of anyone.
I’m crying.”
What he said was quite appropriate. When everyone heard this, they all sighed with emotion and came to persuade Baoyu.
Jia Heng nodded secretly as he listened.
It should be that Daiyu in the Sanqing Palace listened to his words after being comforted by him, and then she thought of her words.
No matter what, no matter who hears these words, it will make no sense.
As for why Daiyu was crying secretly just now, he had some vague guesses.
It was probably Mrs. Wang's charming words that made Daiyu "take the seat" on her own, feeling sad.
When Baoyu heard this explanation, he was stunned at first, and then he was very happy. His face, which looked like the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, turned from sadness to joy. As he spoke, he reached out to pull Daiyu's arm and said angrily: "Sister Lin
, I was confused, I just saw it wrong."
Sister Feng smiled and eased the atmosphere and said: "Ancestor, take a look, have you seen it? The two of them are noisy together. How has this not been the case since childhood?"
Jia Mu also smiled happily and said: "The two of them have been playing around since they were young."
Just at this time, Jia Zheng came to Rongqing Hall. Hearing the commotion inside, he walked quickly. As soon as he entered the screen, he saw Baoyu still standing there blankly, with a group of people surrounding him to persuade him.
Jia Heng, standing not far away, looked gloomy and had a silent expression.
Jia Zheng didn't know what happened, but it must be Baoyu who had a naughty temperament and was causing trouble.
Jia Zheng felt an evil fire rushing straight to his forehead. His elegant and fair face turned livid, and he shouted: "What an evil beast! Get me a stick! Beat this bastard to death!"
Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Baoyu, Sister Feng: "..."
There was a sudden silence in Rongqing Hall.
Then, there was a boy outside to get the stick.
When Baoyu heard Shen shouted, he felt struck by thunder, and shuddered violently. He saw "murderous intent" on Jia Zheng's face, and his face turned pale for a moment. He was so frightened that he turned and ran behind Jia's mother.
On the other side of the room, Jia's mother hugged the trembling Baoyu, feeling extremely distressed. She looked at Jia Zheng, with a look of shock on her old face, and said, "What are you going to do!"
"Mother, don't stop me today. I'm going to beat this useless beast to death!" Jia Zheng said angrily, rolling up his sleeves. At this moment, the boy outside had already handed over the
Stick, take the stick one by one.
"come over!"
Jia Zheng shouted at Baoyu with an evil look on his face.
Baoyu was as frightened as a quail at this moment and shrank towards Jia Mu's arms.
Jia Zheng snorted angrily, holding a stick and approaching Baoyu.
"You're going to beat me to death today." When Jia Mu saw this, her face changed drastically, she was so angry that she was shaking all over, and she said angrily.
Jia Zheng was holding a stick in his hand and had just walked closer. Hearing these words, his elegant face turned blue and red, like this countless times, countless times...
Jia Zheng's face gradually turned pale and he said dejectedly: "Mother, you are trying to force your son to death..."
As he spoke, he felt a tightness in his chest and his body swayed, as if he had fallen to the side. Jia Heng frowned and quickly stepped forward to help him.
Everyone in Rongqing Hall exclaimed in surprise.
Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Zheng was so pale with anger that her face was filled with tears. She knelt on the ground, hugged Jia Zheng's legs, and cried: "Master, what mistake did Baoyu make? You want to beat him to death, and you are so angry."
…”
Seeing Jia Zheng's appearance, Jia's mother couldn't bear to say: "How can a good father and son be like enemies? How come Baoyu makes you so angry?"
Jia Zheng said: "If you don't learn well every day, you just indulged him blindly! Now Brother Heng thinks he is hopeless, and is silent..."
Mrs. Wang, Jia Mu: "..."
Li Wan, Sister Feng, and Tan Chun all looked at each other in confusion.
This reason...
Mother Jia sighed and said, "Just now, it was Baoyu and Yu'er who were the brothers and sisters who were having a quarrel. Baoyu's kid didn't say anything serious, and Heng brother was annoyed..."
When Sister Feng heard this, her heart sank and she was stunned.
But at this moment, a clear voice was heard, ringing in the Rongqing Hall: "What the old lady said, do you think I can understand him like a child?"
When Jia Mu heard the words, she was speechless for a moment, and then she suddenly lost her words.
But at that time, the young man said loudly: "I just felt chilled in my heart and teeth. I thought about how great my ancestor Ning Rong was. How could I give birth to such unworthy descendants who are as stubborn as stone, ruthless and unrighteous?!"
When everyone heard this, they felt inexplicable fear in their hearts, and they all looked at the young man in plain clothes.
Sister Feng only had one thought: Uncle Heng was really angry this time!
When Jia Mu heard this, she looked a little unhappy.
She had almost forgotten that this person's temperament was too strong to be insulted lightly!
Jia Heng's face was calm and he said in a deep voice: "Uncle Lin was born as a prostitute in Kejia, and now he is patrolling salt in Yangzhou. Sister Lin has been away from home in Shenjing for several years. She can't share the joy of family life with her father, and she has no mother.
She is taking care of her and looking forward to her strengths. She is alone in the Rong Mansion. Although the old lady is loving and loving her, she has also grown up. It is inevitable that there are some omissions... Baoyu, you are one year older.
As you said, you have been with Sister Lin day and night and grown up together. However, you are always arrogant and arrogant, regardless of the first or fifth day of the lunar month. You pretend to be crazy and stupid, and you are stupid and stupid! How could an elder brother ever care about his younger sister? Secondly,
My father, Yan, is looking at you earnestly, hoping that you will become a talented person, but you just hide in the back house and hang out, hiding here and there, without any responsibility! So what if you were born with a jade in your mouth, you are just as stubborn as a stone, ruthless and unrighteous!"
The ruthless gem.
It is not an exaggeration to say that one is as stubborn as a stone, ruthless and meaningless, and nothing about cherishing one's daughter can cover up the lack of responsibility!
Jinchai, Xiren, Daiyu, Baochai, Xiangyun...which one is not like this?
"Last night the loess gave away the bones, and tonight the mandarin ducks are sleeping under the red light tent. Who are they talking about?" Jia Heng thought about this, his eyes were dim, and his face was frosty.
As soon as Jia Heng said this, everyone in Rongqing Hall was shocked.
At this moment, Baoyu lifted up his Mid-Autumn Moonlight face from Jia Mu's arms. His heart was shaken, and he felt every word was like a knife, piercing his heart, and his face turned pale.
Is he acting out of anger and pretending to be crazy?
He hides in Tibet and has no responsibility?
Is he stubborn as a stone, ruthless and unjust?
This... no, no, he is not this kind of person! No...
Daiyu was listening to the side, her eyes were red, she lowered her starry eyes, her eyelashes were filled with tears, Tanchun reached out and held Daiyu's jade hand tightly, and softly comforted: "Sister Lin."
If we say that the former hermits and distinguished scholars were able to pierce the veil of Baoyu!
So this time, almost all the colors of Baoyu's underwear were revealed to the public, waiting for confirmation in the future, all the underwear was taken off, revealing that weak and young personality!
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "As long as you have some men to take over, come over and help your father and your mother. Your father is so angry that he is shaking all over for you! Your mother will cry and wipe her tears for you!"
Jia Zheng was trembling all over at this moment, half angry and half excited.
As for Mrs. Wang, she was just a helper.
"You bastard, you haven't come here yet!" Seeing Baoyu hesitate and stay put, Jia Heng showed an evil look on his face, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, and he shouted loudly, like spring thunder.
Baoyu trembled with fright, and moved toward Jia Heng as if her legs were uncontrollable. She stretched out her hand to help Mrs. Wang and lowered her head tightly.
I have to say that this scene, whether in the eyes of Jia Zheng or Jia Mu, is both pleasing to the eye and comforting.
People who don't have children can't understand that feeling, that feeling of surprise and relief when an ineffective child suddenly becomes more sensible.
And who brought all this?
"Second Master, it is difficult to produce a filial son under a stick. Baoyu's temperament, alas..." Jia Heng sighed and said: "Let's not talk about his fame in the imperial examination and his work as an official. In the future, as long as there is a point
As a son, a brother, and a father, the second master did not have this son in vain."
When Jia Zheng heard the words, he felt that the words had entered his heart, and the depression in his heart gradually dissipated. Tears filled his eyes, and he felt a mixture of emotions in his heart. He was moved and said: "Zi Yu..."
This kind of earnest teaching and repentance, teaching by words and deeds...
Mother Jia's expression also changed, and she looked at the young man silently, without any resentment in her heart.
It’s hard to be obedient, but a sensible person can’t say one thing: Brother Heng, you can teach this son.
Daiyu stopped crying and looked at the young man opposite her quietly, her starry eyes gleaming under her smoky brows.
Without him, this kind of brilliance in personality and demeanor in behavior simply gives people an indescribable shock, the feeling that they are on the right path and are on the right path.
When it is severe, it is like a thunderbolt and a wake-up call; when it is gentle, it is like spring breeze turning into rain, moistening things silently.
Xun Baoyu's words were stern but earnest, and his advice to Jia Zheng was gentle but sincere and moving.
Especially what the man said, even if he is not an official, let Baoyu take some responsibilities as a son and a brother. This is so true that after listening to it, every parent will burst into tears and nod in agreement.
Not to mention, Jia Heng did not simply reprimand Baoyu to get rid of the problem, but enlightened this stubborn stone and asked Baoyu to come and help Jia Zheng. Mrs. Wang was a stroke of genius and touching.
This kind of education method, coupled with the previous teaching by words and deeds, that kind of personality charm...
Fu Qiufang looked at the young man with the same beautiful eyes. She had just felt that there was a scene and was disappointed with the so-called family tradition of Rong Ning's second house. But at this moment, she had a trembling feeling that her trip was well worth it.
"This Uncle Heng is worthy of having written such a masterpiece as the Three Kingdoms... he is generous and heroic, and has a good temperament."
Tan Chun had already been looking at Jia Heng intently, his heart trembling slightly, his bright face already as red as a begonia.
Even though, according to the fate of the original work, when Min Tanchun got married, she still called Aunt Zhao mother.
Daiyu looked at the young man's stern, straight profile with her shining eyes, thinking about what Jia Heng had just said about her coming from Beijing.
It's funny to say that if the fate of the original work is followed, Baoyu may not have said such heart-warming words even after Daiyu's father died in the future.
Because Baoyu's views on life and death are quite Buddhist and Taoist, but they are incompatible with secular family relationships.
Those who feel sad and ecstatic are just farewell; those who touch the heart are just feelings.
