dream of red mansion

Chapter 4
In April, the world is full of fragrance,
The peach blossoms of the mountain temple began to bloom.

Another month passed in a blink of an eye, and Chen Hao had fully adapted to Jia Qing's identity, but being in such a small courtyard every day made him a little unhappy.

Fortunately, he finally found out from Aunt Liu that his mother's name is He Qingqing, and his father's name is Jia Jing.

After all, we have traveled through time, and it is much better to live in the dreamlike world of the Red Mansion than to live in the Water Margin where there are many big men like dogs and girls like Pan Jinlian (forgive my prejudice).Thinking of Lu Zhishen with a big face and beard, he held up a mug of wine and said, "Come on, brother, let's do it!" Suddenly, as if an electric shock passed through his heart, he forcibly shook off Lu Zhishen's big face, and only then did Sister Lin appear in his mind. , Sister Bao's beautiful faces. "Zi Liu", um, no saliva left.

He asked Aunt Liu that his father was only about 50 years old this year, so his elder brother Jia Zhen should be in his early thirties at most.He remembered seeing the [-] version of Dream of the Red Chamber in his previous life, in which Jia Zhen looked like a little old man.In other words, he will definitely be able to catch up with the big show in the Red Mansion, how can we not make him excited?Although I don't know what kind of knot he came out of, but since he came, let him be at ease and let him go.

It is a blessing not a curse, and a disaster must be avoided. This is the life creed he pursues.

Another thing that made him uncomfortable was that there was only one bedroom and one bed in this small courtyard, and Aunt Liu didn't trust him to be alone, so he had to sleep next to Aunt Liu at night.I didn't expect that he would be able to hold nephrite jade just after passing through, no, it was in nephrite jade arms!As the saying goes, it is better to kill a thief if you want to kill a thief, but you can't recover from it.Besides, this "thief" was still his elder, so he had to suffer such gentle torture silently.

bang bang

"Is anyone here?"

The knock on the door interrupted Chen Hao who was thinking.It's a pity that Aunt Liu is not at home. What if he is young and frail and swells up when he encounters bad guys?Aunt Liu also ordered before she went out, not to open the door for others until she came back.

Chen Hao hadn't considered this situation, and was thinking about countermeasures.

bang bang.

"Hey, hello, is Miss Cui Liu there?"

Recalling the voice again gave Chen Hao some insight. After thinking for a while, he said, "What's the matter?" The voice was crisp.

The people outside probably didn't expect it to be a child's voice, and were obviously stunned.Only then did another steady voice sound.

"Old slave Lai Sheng, by the master's order, came to pick up the young master back to the mansion."

"Who is your master?" With some guesses in his mind, he reaffirmed.

"Our master is Master Jing of Ningguo Mansion, and he is also your father, Young Master."

Hearing that there was no sound inside again, Lai Sheng continued:
"Young master, if you have any questions, you can ask the old servant to answer them face to face."

Chen Hao thought about it carefully, and felt that the benefits of opening the door should far outweigh the risks, and a courtyard door might not be able to play much role.So he walked over and opened the door.

Lai Sheng and the others stood for a long time, looking at the child who opened the door for them. He was only three or four years old, with delicate features. It was hard to imagine that the question and answer and response just now came from this child.However, Lai Sheng immediately put these issues behind him.

Like, too much like, definitely the son of the master.Thinking about it, I bent down unconsciously:
"Slave Lai Sheng, I have seen the young master."

The other servants saluted the chief manager, although they were puzzled, they had to salute in unison.

Chen Hao let them into the yard, ran to sit on a small stool, and asked Lai Sheng, the leader, "You said that my father wanted to pick me up, why didn't you come to pick me up for the past two years?"

Listening to this obviously not thinking like a three-year-old child, Lai Sheng can only feel that the young master must have suffered a lot over the years to appear so mature.But how could he, how dare he answer his words, he could only say: "Forgive me for not knowing, the young master can ask the master after returning to Beijing."

"What about my mother?"

"I don't know about my aunt, but the young master can."

"Okay, okay, you don't need to talk, I know." Seeing that the old man in front of him refused to cooperate, he understood that it was because he was young, and he didn't dare to tell the truth to himself. Aunt Liu also refused to say anything to protect herself. .But with my young master's ingenuity, I am really not afraid of not getting the answer, and I will talk about it after returning to Beijing.

"It's easy for me to go back to Beijing. I want my Aunt Liu to go back with me. Oh, it's the person next to my mother, named Cui Liu."

"Yes, everything is under the command of the young master."

Seeing the young master's obviously unhappy expression just now, Lai Sheng could only smile wryly, he never thought that talking to a child would cheer him up.He asked carefully again to see if there were any other requests. Fortunately, Chen Hao didn't have much attachment here, so he let Lai Sheng decide on his own and went back to the house by himself.

Lai Sheng immediately arranged for people to arrange the blessing boat and prepare the cars and sedan chairs.Because I made preparations when I came here, there is room for servants to live on the Fuchuan on the wharf, so it is not very troublesome.After arranging things, Lai Sheng stood in the yard, ready to take care of the young master at any time.

After a while, I saw the young master come out again, holding a chair about the size of his body in his arms.

"Hey, I'll sit here for you." Putting down the chair, he turned back to the room.Leaving behind, Lai Sheng was slightly moved, thinking that although the young master is young, he knows how to be sympathetic to his servants, which is quite like his father.

As everyone knows, Chen Hao in the room is also very satisfied, such a small thing can buy people's hearts, and he doesn't mind more such good things.Although the two Lai family brothers in the original book are not good things, but now that Jia Jing is still there, I think Lai Sheng should not be so reckless that he dares to embezzle wantonly.Even if there is, he has to do it.Now he doesn't have any support in Jia's house, it would be good to have more security.

Cui Liu got off work early today, went to the vegetable market to buy some food and was ready to go home.After a few steps into Liuxiang, I saw the door of my own courtyard was open. I was shocked, so I ran over quickly, and when I entered the door, I saw an old man sitting in the courtyard.The old man also obviously noticed her and raised his head.

"Boss Lai, why is it you!" Hai heaved a sigh of relief.

"I've seen Miss Cui Liu." Lai Sheng also stood up and said.

Chen Hao, who was bored in the room all afternoon, rushed out of the room when he heard Cui Liu's voice, called Aunt Liu, and ran to her side quickly.

At this time, Lai Sheng said: "I am waiting for the master's order to come to pick up the young master and Miss Cui Liu back to the residence. The vehicles and boats are all ready. If Miss Cui Liu has no objections, we are going to return to Beijing tomorrow."

"The slave has no objection, everything is under the arrangement of Manager Lai. Manager Lai hasn't had dinner yet, why don't you stay and eat together?"

Lai Sheng replied politely: "Thank you, Miss Cui Liu, for your kindness. It's just that there are still some matters to be dealt with on board the blessing boat. Previously, I was only waiting here to take care of the young master. Now that the girl is back, the old slave is going back to the pier. Tomorrow morning, I will pick up the girl and return to Beijing with the young master."

After speaking, he bowed to Chen Hao again: "The old slave will leave."

Chen Hao also pretended to follow Aunt Liu and replied, "Mr. Lai, go slowly."

After Cui Liu prepared dinner for Chen Hao, she hurried to the cloth shop to quit her job.

In the evening, the two aunts were talking on the bed.

"Master, we will return to Beijing tomorrow. Before that, I have a few things to tell you. You promise Aunt Liu and remember it."

Seeing Chen Hao nodding like a chick pecking at rice, he couldn't help but smile, and then said seriously:
"First, the young master is the second master of the Ningguo Mansion in Beijing. His name is Jia Qing. This is the name your mother gave you. Remember it."

"it is good."

From now on, I will be called Jia Qing. Since I have taken the body of someone else's son, I can live as her son. Anyway, I have no acquaintances in this world.Jia Qing (Chen Hao disappeared...) thought to himself.

"Second, the name of the young master's father is Jia Jing. You have to call him Master. You also have an older brother named Jia Zhen. There are strict rules in the family. When you meet the elders, you have to salute and say hello. You can't make mistakes. If you make a mistake, the master will beat you." It’s a board.” He said and rubbed Jia Qing’s little butt.

"Thirdly, from now on, the family can no longer call me Aunt Liu, just call me Cui Liu, otherwise I will be punished if someone hears Liu."

Seeing the reluctance on Xiao Jiaqing's face, his heart was sweet, and he stepped back and said, "At most, if you call me Aunt Liu when there is no one else, I will be very satisfied."

"Then I'll call you Aunt Liu in my heart from now on, okay?"

"Okay, okay, he is a good and sensible boy, then you have to remember, I will be angry if I make a mistake."

With a hum, Jia Qing got into Cui Liu's arms, inhaled the faint fragrance, and made a wish in her heart: Aunt Liu, don't worry, I will treat you well in the future, you are my dearest person.

"Okay, I'll just say these three points, you won't be able to remember them too much, remember to ask me if you don't understand in the future, now, go to bed obediently." Patted Jia Qing's little buttocks, hugged Xiao Jia Qingguan eyes.

Jia Qing touched his little butt, feeling a little dissatisfied. He found that Aunt Liu seemed to like his little butt very much. Thinking about something, Jia Qing soon fell asleep.
