Red House Shoufu

Chapter 102 Fight Back (45)

The Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner, and every corner of the capital is filled with the smell of rice dumplings.

A heated discussion erupted in the Lin family over whether to eat sweet or salty rice dumplings. Finally, under Wang Qi's force, the only heretic, Wang Huan, was suppressed.

"Brother, the zongzi is still sweet and delicious. It would be even better if you put a little honey on it." Wang Yuan put a red date sweet zongzi in front of Wang Huan, staring at him fiercely.

"If my brother doesn't eat the zongzi I specially made, I'll tell you about your affairs on the Qinhuai River, hehe..."

Wang Huan lamented that his sister had gradually become "ruthless", and ate the zongzi in front of her with a frown.

Seeing her brother eating the zongzi, Wang Yuan beamed with joy, and happily went to deliver the zongzi to Lin Shu.In the past two days, in order to learn how to make zongzi, she burned a small blister on her hands.

At this time, Lin Shu was surrounded by a pile of books, and beside him were materials related to the hydrology of the Yellow River.

The flood season is approaching, and dealing with the flood of refugees caused by floods in the Yellow River every year is the most urgent matter for the imperial court.

dong dong!

Wang Yuan came in with a plate of zongzi, and saw that Lin Shu was surrounded by books and materials, so she put the plate on the outermost table.

"Brother Lin, this is the zongzi I made, try it."

Lin Shu raised his head and saw a warm smile on Wang Yuan's face.After putting down the pen in his hand, he walked over the pile of books and came to Wang Yuan's side. He wanted to pinch her pretty face, but found that his hands were covered with ink.

"Brother Lin, wait a minute, I'll bring the basin right now..."

Wang Yuan couldn't help but ran out, and after a while came over with a basin of water and a handkerchief, put Lin Shu's hands in the water and scrubbed them thoroughly.

Lin Shu didn't refuse either, and just smiled and let Wang Yuan do his best: "Sister Yuan is really virtuous, I really burnt incense to be engaged to Sister Yuan!"

The corner of Wang Yuan's mouth twitched, but she didn't answer.After drying his hands, he peeled off a rice dumpling and handed it to Lin Shu.

"Try it, sweet!"

Lin Shu took a big bite, it was sweet and soft, very appetizing.

"It's delicious. I didn't expect that Sister Yuan still has this skill. From now on, I will eat zongzi made by Sister Yuan every year!"

Hearing Lin Shu's praise, Wang Yuan smiled with crooked eyebrows.As expected, what mother said was right, as long as Brother Lin's stomach was caught, he would not be able to escape.

Lin Shu and Wang Yuan were talking about each other in the study room, but the Rongguo Mansion was like a chicken and a dog.

Two days ago, Lin Shu suddenly pulled Jia Lian back to his home outside the palace gate, and the two discussed it for a long time in the study.

After Jia Lian came home, the first thing he did was go to Ningguo Mansion to look for Jia Jing.On the grounds that the children in the family are not good at martial arts, they rectified Jia's family studies, and at the same time gathered a few people who didn't like reading together, and Jiao Da, the first soldier of Ningguo Mansion, taught martial arts.

In this way, Jia Huan, who had been called a deer-headed mouse by the elders in the mansion before, and who had lost the face of his ancestors, began to emerge.

Not only is he getting better at his homework, but he is also working extremely hard when practicing martial arts.The opposite is Jia Baoyu, it's fine if there is no comparison before, at least he can be said to be extremely intelligent.

But now Jia Huan, who is only ten years old, has a new look, which makes everyone in the family look at him with admiration, especially Aunt Zhao and Tanchun, who finally see hope and weep with joy.

No matter how stupid Jia Zheng was, he knew that his second son, Jia Baoyu, was about to be abolished. When the prodigal son of the concubine and third son turned around, he was so excited that he ran to the ancestral hall to announce the good news to his ancestors.

Jia Zheng's favorite thing in the past two days was to summon Jia Huan after he came down from the government office, listen to his endorsement for a test, or watch his youngest son beat him with newly learned boxing techniques.

In the evening, I hurriedly finished dinner in Jia Wang's room, and went to Aunt Zhao's yard on the pretext of teaching Jia Huan homework.

After all, Mrs. Jia Wang is old and decrepit, and her thoughts are heavy, she can't compare with Aunt Zhao, who is at a beautiful age. I don't know how many dishes and porcelains have been broken in the past two days.

Jia Baoyu had a particularly bad day these two days. A few days ago when Jia Shishi and Jia Wangshi visited the palace, they brought back a piece of news that stunned him—the emperor bestowed grace on him to study in the Imperial College!

After finally pretending to be sick for a while, he never thought that the old patriarch would suddenly rectify the ethnology, making his life in the ethnology more "difficult".

Xiang, Lianyu and Ai all left him, not to mention, Jia Huan, whom he had always looked down upon, suddenly changed his appearance, and was greatly praised by his sisters at home.

Wherever Jia Baoyu went now, he felt that someone was pointing at his back: Look, Second Master Bao is far worse than Third Master Huan. I heard someone say that Third Master Huan is doing very well in his homework now...

Consciously "abandoned" by his sisters at home, Jia Baoyu lost his temper when everyone was eating together in order to win back his love. He even used the strongest magic weapon and smashed the precious jade on his chest to the ground.

After this incident, he did not regain the closeness of his sisters, but frightened Yingchun and Tanchun further away from him.

In order to win Jia Zheng's heart, Jia Wangshi began to force Jia Baoyu to study hard, and even Jia Shishi's beloved grandson was pushed back by Jia Wangshi with Yuanchun.

In this way, in just a few days, the Rongguo Mansion was turned upside down by Jia Lian, and the corners of Jia Wang's mouth were bubbling with worry, and he didn't care about other things at all.

……

"Second brother Lian, my mother fined me to copy scriptures for her again today. I don't have time to do my homework at all!"

Just as Jia Lian came back from the palace that day, he saw Jia Huan sticking his head out of the door and looking around.

Seeing Jia Lian's figure, Jia Huan hurried to him and began to complain.He even showed him his red and swollen palm: "I copied one word wrong, and my mother beat me ten times..."

Wang Xifeng, who was in the room, heard the noise in the courtyard, and came out with a big belly. Seeing Jia Huan's red and swollen palms, she called Ping'er to apply medicine to Jia Huan.

"Second Aunt is too cruel, how does this beat Brother Huan?"

Although Jia Lian was delighted with the success of the plan, at the same time he was very angry at Jia Wang's hotness.

Jia Huan's change came from Jia Lian's three questions: Do you want Aunt Zhao to be able to sit at the dinner table for dinner?Do you want Aunt Zhao to no longer have to serve her aunt?Do you want to be treated like Baoyu?
Regardless of Jia Huan's young age, there are not many stupid people who can grow up in an environment like Rongguo Mansion.

To be able to grow so big under the eyes of a very hot aunt like Jia Wang, Jia Zheng's love for Aunt Zhao is one aspect, and Jia Huan's pretending to be stupid is also inseparable.

Anyone who can threaten Jia Baoyu's existence cannot escape Jia Wang's calculations.

Now that Jia Huan is in the eyes of the old patriarch Jia Jing, with Jia Zheng's attention, coupled with Jia Lian's help and support, he finally has the confidence to resist Jia Wang's family.

Jia Huan has seen Aunt Zhao's hardships all these years.What's more, he still has a great desire in his heart, that is to surpass Jia Baoyu.

Jia Lian looked at Jia Huan who endured the pain to let Ping'er take the medicine, and secretly hated Jia Wang's very hot.

He said to Jia Huan: "Tomorrow I will take a bath and take you to the East Mansion to find Uncle Jing. Second Aunt oppresses the children of the Jia family so much, I want to see if she is afraid of family rules and family laws?"
