dream of red mansion

Chapter 487 Pleasure
"Ugh……"

"What's the matter, are you unhappy?"

"No……"

"I see. You should still be worried about your brother and the others. Don't be unhappy. It's a big deal. I'll let my ancestors redeem them all later."

"Really? Impossible, the old lady will not promise you."

"It's okay, it's just a matter of spending some money. My ancestor loves me the most. As long as I ask for mercy, she will definitely agree."

……

……

"Hmm..."

Jia Baoyu was talking with the girl, but he didn't notice Jia Qing's arrival until Wang Xifeng coughed deliberately to wake them up.

"Sister Feng... why are you here, second brother?"

Wang Xifeng glanced at the girl, and the look of disgust flashed away in his eyes. Seeing that Jia Qing was also looking at her, she said to Jia Qing: "This is the girl Lai just bought back, her name is Ling'er."

Jia Qing nodded, and said to Jia Baoyu, "I'm here to pay my respects to my ancestor, and I'll stop by to see my little niece."

"Oh"

"Brother Bao, the master asked you just now, saying that the mother is going back home to visit relatives soon, and he was on guard against asking about your homework, telling you to prepare well. You just run around and hang out with the maids. Be careful and the master knows it I want to hit you!"

"Understood." Jia Baoyu was unhappy in his heart and said sullenly.

Wang Xifeng didn't say any more, looked at Ling'er again, and led them away.

"Second Lord Bao, the person sitting in that car just now is the first-class mighty general Qing Erye in the East Mansion? The one who was praised by the Supreme Emperor as a 'young prodigy', the youngest juvenile in the country?"

As soon as Jia Qing and others passed by, Ling'er asked Jia Baoyu.

"Ah, he is." Jia Baoyu did not expect Ling'er to name so many titles of Jia Qing in one breath.But he didn't take it seriously, anyway, he didn't envy them, and he didn't care.

"Let me tell you, he is an elegant person, and he never shows off in front of us, and I don't care. But, do you know how his leg was hurt?"

This matter is no longer a secret in Jia's mansion, and Ling'er has heard about it.But in order not to lose Jia Baoyu's interest, she still pretended to be curious: "Oh, how did he get hurt?"

"Well, it's really..."

Therefore, Jia Baoyu briefly told the story of how Jia Qing defied power and hardships, endured humiliation for a woman he loved, and finally failed to be a hero to save the beauty.

Jia Baoyu himself spoke seriously, completely oblivious to the fact that Ling'er wasn't listening carefully at all, but looked preoccupied.After he finished speaking, he found that Ling'er had a sad face, looking like she was about to cry.

"Good sister, okay, why are you crying again? If you have any grievances, just tell me and I will help you."

Ling'er broke her heart and said: "I, I'm fine, I just miss my mother. My family was in trouble, but fortunately I joined your family to keep you safe and prosperous. But my mother and brother are going to suffer from that boundless torment. As long as I think of this, I can't eat, and I can't sleep at night. My mother raised me so much, and she didn't repay her kindness. Now I know that she is suffering, but there is nothing I can do. How can I not be sad..."

Jia Baoyu was moved by these touching words, and the corners of his eyes were slightly moist. He said: "My dear sister, don't be sad, we will find a way..."

Ling'er looked up at him, his "we" seemed to make her see the support, and she immediately said with joy, "Really? You didn't lie to me?"

"Of course... But, your brother and the others were exiled to the extreme south to reclaim wasteland and guard the frontier. The journey is thousands of miles away. We will not be able to rescue them in a while. As for the aunt, I just don't know where she lives now... "

Encouraged by the beauty's eyes, Jia Baoyu began to think seriously.

Ling'er's eyes flickered slightly, she lowered her head and said softly: "I heard someone say that my mother was sold to the Zhang family in Luoshui, east of the city..."

Jia Baoyu was taken aback for a moment, and then said joyfully, "That's great, I'll go immediately to ask my ancestors to redeem my aunt!"

Jia Baoyu said that he was going to drag her away.

"Brother Bao, don't go in a hurry. The old lady is probably going to sleep at this moment. Wouldn't it be a bother to go at this time, or don't go..."

After hearing this, Jia Baoyu said, "Oh, then we have to wait."

"This is my private matter, and I dare not bother the old lady for such a trivial matter... However, your Jia family is now a relative of the state, and the old lady is not the only one who wants to save my mother..."

Jia Baoyu thought for a while and said, "You mean Master?"

There was unconscious fear in Jia Baoyu's voice.

Ling'er naturally knew who Jia Baoyu feared the most in his life, she shook her head lightly, looked at the other side of the corridor, and said, "I don't dare to bother the master...Brother Bao, your relationship with Second Master Qing must be Very good."

"Of course... By the way, why don't you ask your second brother for help?"

Jia Baoyu suddenly realized.

Ling'er's eyes showed a little joy, but she only said: "That's okay... I heard that Second Master Qing is not only famous all over the world, but also able to speak in front of the current emperor. If he is willing to help me, my mother will definitely help me." If I can escape from the sea of ​​suffering, I will die without regret.”

Although Jia Baoyu was clear-hearted, he was still a little upset when he heard that the beautiful woman in front of him seemed to be flattering the other boy, so he said, "What's the problem? I'll go and tell him right away. You wait here for me." .”

After speaking, Jia Baoyu gave Ling'er a "don't worry, leave it to me" expression, and chased forward.

……

On this side, Jia Qing didn't suppress his curiosity after walking far, and asked, "Who is that maid? I don't think the second sister-in-law likes her very much."

Wang Xifeng turned her head, looked Jia Qing up and down, and said with a smile, "Why, could it be that you also fell in love with her?"

Wang Xifeng deserves to be the most straightforward person in the Jia family.

"Back to the second master, she is the maid bought by the old lady. Yes, she is the daughter of the former Shoushan uncle's mansion. She was originally called Liu Lingshu, but she was called Ling'er after she arrived in the mansion."

Seeing that Jia Qing was stopped by Wang Xifeng's words, Ping'er said.

The daughter of Shoushanbo Mansion?That's right, last time Jia Baoyu was punished by Jia Zheng just because of this.It seems that Mother Jia finally helped him realize his wish.

It's no wonder that Wang Xifeng doesn't like it anymore, she probably thinks the other party is a bastard.

Nodding his head, Jia Qing didn't want to talk too much about such a trivial matter.

"Second brother, second brother, wait!"

Hearing the call from behind, Jia Qing, Wang Xifeng and others all stopped.

Looking at Jia Erbao who was running towards him quickly, Jia Qing said, "Second Brother Bao is in a hurry to catch up, is there something urgent?"

"Second sister-in-law Lian..." Jia Baoyu called Wang Xifeng first, and then replied, "It's urgent, but it's not urgent. It's a trivial matter and I need your help, second brother."

"Oh, Second Brother Bao still has something to ask me to help? Let's hear what it is."

"That's right, I want to ask you to help save people."

"Save someone, who?"

"Ling'er's mother."

"Nonsense, what a good way to save someone, Baoyu, you haven't gone back yet, the old lady just called you, saying that she has good news for you, go quickly."

As soon as Jia Baoyu said this, Wang Xifeng suddenly changed his face, and said before Jia Qing.

Jia Baoyu was not a three-year-old child, so he didn't know that Wang Xifeng was trying to push him away, so he didn't move, and looked at Jia Qing intently.

Seeing this, Wang Xifeng wanted to say something, but Jia Qing stretched out his hand to stop her, and then Jia Qing said with a calm face:

"..."
