The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 456: Grandma Liu's First Trial...

[There are two more alliance leaders... Let me work hard, there will definitely be more! 】

Jia Baoyu's emotions always come and go quickly, just because Xue Baochai was a little displeased with being "nosy", he turned around and urged to read everyone's articles, saying that he hadn't been able to participate in it before, and now he has to do it anyway. 'Chief interrogator' is the only way to succeed.

Even if he told the old lady that he was going to hang out in the garden, he still refused to give up.

Helpless, Xue Baochai had no choice but to fetch the essays she had adapted for him to read, coaxing him to accompany the old lady to amuse herself after reading them, so that there would be good articles to read when she was done.

Jia Baoyu responded indiscriminately, and eagerly opened it to look at it. After only two glances, he couldn't help but marvel: "This is really Sister Bao's handwriting? The words and sentences are not out of charm, but the style of this essay ..."

Although it wasn't a secret, Xue Baochai still didn't want him to know from the bottom of his heart that this was revised on the basis of Jiao Shun's model essay, so he vaguely urged: "Brother Bao, let's talk about it after reading it."

Baoyu responded with "hmmm" repeatedly, and then put his attention back into this essay.

At the beginning, I didn't realize it, but when I saw Xue's brothers and sisters being forced to go to Beijing, they were forced by Mei's everywhere, and then recalled the warm past, so they gritted their teeth unconsciously. When they were married, they couldn't help but yelled: "The morals of the world have corrupted these men who chase after fame and fortune!"

He gritted his teeth, and said something in a moment: A man should be a man of his own, who cares about national affairs, career and economy?
After a while, he said: It is better for the imperial court to select talents from monks and priests, so that the world cannot be ruled, at least it will not select such heartless people!

The girls had heard such words a long time ago, and they didn't think it was a big deal, but they felt a little embarrassed in front of Jiao Shun and Xue Biao.

It was hard for others to say anything, but Lin Daiyu was not used to him at all, she stepped forward and rolled up the essay, and said with a sneer: "Quickly put away the useless mercy, be careful not to stick your tears and snot on it - it's almost half-seeing!" It's been a month, and I haven't seen you doing anything practical for Sister Baoqin, but Brother Jiao is too busy to worry about it, and he still wants to listen to your nonsense!"

It was only then that Baoyu realized that Jiao Shun seemed to have shot into those clichés he had just said, so he hurriedly got up and apologized to Jiao Shun, and then clamored to read other people's articles.

"Didn't you just say it?"

Baochai put on a serious face and said, "The old lady sent someone to invite her a long time ago. She said she has arrived at Qinfang Pavilion. If you delay any longer, I'm afraid she will come to remind you again."

But as soon as the words were finished, Zhou Rui's family hurried over, stomping their feet and urging: "Oh, my brothers and girls, the old lady has already asked me eight times, why don't you leave?!"

After a pause, he saluted Jiao Shun respectfully: "The old lady heard that Uncle Jiao is also in the garden, please ask Uncle Jiao to come over and talk."

Everyone agreed, but Jia Baoyu asked sullenly: "Then what kind of rare thing is Grandma Liu? Why do you have to go to see her?"

"It's not a rare thing..."

Zhou Rui's family hurriedly explained the origin of Grandma Liu, but it turned out that Grandma Liu had nothing to do with the Rongguo Mansion, but her son-in-law was once connected to the Wang family.

A few years ago, due to the decline of her family, Grandma Liu was forced to bring her grandson to play in the autumn wind. But because Wang Xifeng was in a good mood, she subsidized her family with dozens of taels of silver, and there were ties between her coming and going.

Hearing that it was such a relationship, Jia Baoyu became more and more annoyed, pouted and said: "It's just a country old lady who can't be beaten, no matter how much you praise her, can you still get over the matter of Baoqin's sister? What am I going to say today..."

"Brother Bao!"

Just as he was shaking his arms to blame, Xue Baochai scolded: "We have just agreed, if we continue to mess around, I'm afraid the sisters will not believe it in the future!"

Lin Daiyu sneered at the side: "I didn't believe him at all!"

Only then did Jia Baoyu remember that he had sworn an oath just now that he would never spread the matter of retaliation against the Mei family, and was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to defend himself.

Fortunately, Baoqin took the initiative to smooth things over, saying that the old lady treated her best, how could she spoil her elegance?

Only then did Jia Baoyu get to the steps, and he followed the crowd to Qinfang Pavilion without flags or drums.

Before arriving at the place, I saw a large group of people rushing here from a distance, but the old lady was really impatient, so she brought people over to find her.

All the girls, together with Baoyu, hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

The old lady pretended to be angry and said: "I asked for three times and asked for five times but I didn't see you coming, but it turned out that they got together again to mess around!"

As he spoke, he introduced them to Grandma Liu one by one.

Then Grandma Liu had never received such a courtesy, and when she saw each of them like flowers and jade, she felt as if she was in a dream in the clouds, and she couldn't help but click her tongue and said: "I'm afraid they are not born by gods, right? !"

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

It just so happened that Jiao Shun and Xue Biao rushed over unhurriedly. Mrs. Wang hadn't seen Jiao Shun for many days. When she saw him for the first time, she immediately remembered what she had seen and heard in Changcui Temple that day, and couldn't help but spit secretly.

Turning his head to look away, he found that Aunt Xue beside her was also looking at him with wandering eyes.

Looking at each other, Aunt Xue immediately lowered her head with guilt.

Mrs. Wang was suspicious, and wondered to herself, could this sister have kept something from her?
On the other side, when Jia Mu saw Jiao Shun, she couldn't care less about other things, and called him to her side and boasted to Grandma Liu, "Most of the juniors in my family are naughty, but this one is the most promising one. He is only 20 years old and has become a fifth-rank official, so all the work in the world is under his control!"

Grandma Liu patted her thighs in surprise, and said, "Hey, fifth-rank official? Isn't that the same as the magistrate?"

As he spoke, he made a gesture to kneel down to salute.

The mandarin duck next to him hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab it, and asked with a smile, "What are you doing here?"

"Girl, don't stop me."

Grandma Liu stretched her arms and said in a hurry: "This is the reason why you can't kneel and kowtow when you meet the magistrate?"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Jiao Shun slightly cupped his hands at her, and said with a smile: "The family only cares about seniority, old people, please don't shorten my life."

"Yoyo!"

Grandma Liu became more and more flustered and danced with hands and feet, and said, "I can't be a gift from my grandfather, I can't be a gift from my grandfather!"

Seeing this, everyone laughed more and more.

Jiao Shun explained kindly: "The old man made a mistake. The magistrate is a fourth-rank official, and Yinna of Shuntian Prefecture is a dignified third-rank official. I'm still far behind."

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng immediately interjected proudly: "The current governor of Shuntian Prefecture is also of our same clan and generation, but it's a pity that none of them came today, otherwise I would call you grandma!"

Grandma Liu's eyes widened when she heard the words, and she called out "God" a few times. If it wasn't for the support of the mandarin duck, she might have collapsed on the ground.

Although she knew that the Duke's Mansion was honorable, she didn't really have much idea about the noble law. Now that she took Shuntian Mansion Yin as a benchmark, she realized where she came from.

Thanks to her courage, if she were an ordinary old lady, she might not be able to move her legs or speak.

Jia's mother also smiled, her face was full of creases, and she scolded Wang Xifeng for only talking about it, and she didn't hurry to get someone to move the stool, so that Grandma Liu could relax on the spot.

But Wang Xifeng said: "Grandma has a strong body, how can she be tired after just a few steps? If the old lady is not in a hurry to rest, we might as well go to the nearby girl Lin's courtyard."

When Jia's mother heard the words, she looked at Grandma Liu, and Grandma Liu hurriedly said: "We country people are not as expensive as wives and ladies. We usually travel from village to village relying on our feet. Don't look at me now that I am old. Those who are ten miles away are still here. Speak!"

Hearing what she said, the old lady ordered to turn to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Wang Xifeng and Yuanyang supported Jia's mother on the left and right, but they couldn't help stealing glances at Jiao Shun.

Yuanyang's eyes are full of affection, but Wang Xifeng's eyes are full of soreness, and when she sees nothing, she turns around and teases: "I chatted with Aunt Laiwang in the morning, and said that you are busy with work, so it's rare to see you once in ten days and a half months, but I don't want to be like that. Have fun in our homeland!"

Seeing that the old lady was also looking back, Jiao Shun took two steps forward, smiled without looking sideways: "I have been really busy for a while to prepare for the construction of the engineering school, and today I also caught up with Xiu Mu and was invited by Brother Bao, so it is rare to come here Relax in the garden."

After a pause, he jokingly said, "Sister-in-law is being reasonable, so I'll give you a big gift when I celebrate my second birthday."

Because of Shi Xiangyun's relationship, he deserves to be called sister-in-law, but in private, he still uses the respectful title of "Second Grandma". After all, Jiao is thinking about the slave master, not some uncle who steals his sister-in-law.

Hearing the word "honorable gift", Wang Xifeng let him go temporarily, but said in particular: "Don't fool around like last time!"

Occasionally, it is fun and touching, but if she gets another rag, she will not agree.

Because they both knew that the two of them were masters and servants in the past, they didn't think much about it after a few words of frolic.

The old lady smiled kindly and said: "It's better to visit more often, so that Baoyu can also be nurtured and nurtured, and it will grow bigger in the future. It's not good to play around with sisters and sisters all the time."

When Baoyu heard this, she pursed her lips and was about to step forward to blame her, but she saw Jiao Shun shaking her head: "The old lady is joking, brother Bao can go to the palace to face saints from time to time, if it is about nurturing and teaching, who dares to compare with Your Majesty? "

After hearing this, Mother Jia's teeth became loose when she just laughed, she grabbed Baoyu who was coming up, and showed off to Grandma Liu who was beside her: "Although my jade is not good enough, it has won the favor of the Holy One. I don't know what life it was Thanks to the blessings you were born with!"

Seeing that Grandma Liu was a little ignorant, Yuanyang hurriedly explained in a low voice, saying that the Holy One was the Emperor and Long Live Lord, and then Grandma Liu suddenly realized, so it was another series of "God of Heaven".

Finally, tremblingly, he said: "I said earlier that this group of girls and young ladies are all like being born by gods. Can the emperor and Lao Tzu fall in love?!"

The crowd laughed again.

Although Jia Baoyu didn't like to go to the palace to accompany the king, but he felt complacent in winning a round in front of the sisters, so he stuck to Jia's mother like a monkey and replaced Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng stepped back two steps with a smile, pretending to be casual, but stepped on Jiao Shun's foot.

Jiao Shun, who was stepping on the embroidered shoes with wooden soles, took a deep breath, but then he heard the hot pepper covered his mouth and said with a coquettish smile: "Yo, why did I just step on you? Could it be that the soles of my shoes are also forgetful?" Big one, I haven't recognized you, Uncle Jiao, for a long time?"

Knowing that she was still blaming him for not contacting him for ten and a half months, Jiao Shun secretly gritted his teeth and decided to give this hot pepper a hard time next time, but he could only smile on his face.

Wang Xifeng not only asked for generous gifts, but also took advantage of the flesh, so she ran to the front triumphantly to lead the way.

When I saw the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, I saw green bamboos on both sides of the road, the ground was covered with moss, and there was only a narrow path paved with stones in the middle.

Because Grandma Liu gave up the road to Mother Jia and others, she only walked on the nearby land. Amber pulled her and said, "Grandma, you come up and walk, be careful of the moss and slippery road!"

But Grandma Liu said: "It's irrelevant, we country people are familiar with it, girls just go with yours, don't get those embroidered shoes dirty."

She only cared about talking to people from above, but she slipped on the bottom of her feet, and she threw her head up and fell down.

Thanks to Jiao Shun's quick eyesight and quick hands, he rushed forward to help her, so she didn't fall off his back.

The maids laughed when they saw this.

Seeing this, Jia Mu couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Little hooves, hurry up and help people over! Just stand and laugh!"

At this time, Grandma Liu was already struggling to get up, and even said: "It's okay, it's okay! It's my old lady who is blowing her air, and then she slapped her mouth after she said it!"

As he said that, he saluted Jiao Shun again and again: "My old lady just fell and fell down, how dare you involve the grandfather to help her, her life is shortened, it is really shortened!"

Jiao Shun smiled and said: "The old man is being polite, I am the only one here who has strength, if I don't come to help, the others will be unable to."

Jia's mother also asked: "Have you ever twisted your waist? Do you need to ask the girls to beat it?"

Grandma Liu said repeatedly: "Where do you say that I am so delicate. If I don't fall twice a day, I will be beaten up. Isn't it endless?"

While speaking, he had already reached the door.

Zijuan raised the curtain to welcome everyone into the house. Lin Daiyu personally offered Jia Mu a bowl of tea on a small tea tray, but Mrs. Wang said, "We don't drink tea, so you don't need to pour it."

When Lin Daiyu heard about it, she didn't make any further fuss, and stepped back to the side. In the original book, she moved her own stool to Mrs. Wang, but now that the former alliance has been broken, naturally, this kind of courtesy is missing.

Because there were too many people, the room was a little overwhelmed, so Jiao Shun made an excuse not to go in, and just went outside with Xue Biao to admire the Xiangzhu that is full of yards.

Just watching, I saw Xue Baoqin walking over alone.

Jiao Shun originally thought she was going to talk to Xue Biao, but just wanted to avoid it with an excuse, but Baoqin said without hesitation: "Brother, please avoid it for a while, I have something to say to Brother Jiao."

"This……"

Xue Biao was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, Xin Dao's younger sister had just been divorced, how could she have a private relationship with the foreigner?
"elder brother!"

But when Bao Qin pouted her small mouth and stared at her beautiful eyes, as an elder brother, he had no choice but to give in. He saluted Jiao Shun with a wry smile, and then withdrew two feet away.
