Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 379 Leaving the Mansion

The two people read happily, their heads leaning together, looking at each other from time to time, their faces flushed with happiness.

It's a pity that this happy and warm time is over.

Just as the two of them were lost in thought, a burst of chaotic footsteps sounded nearby.

Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment, and when he looked up, he saw Wang Xifeng coming towards this side with four or five strong women.

Seeing someone coming, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu quickly separated, with a hint of blush on their faces.

Wang Xifeng led someone to the two of them, pursed her lips and smiled, and then said: "Second Master Bao, Second Grandma Bao, are you reading again?"

Baoyu moved the book in his hand behind his back and said with a smile: "I don't understand the meaning of some scriptures, so I asked Daiyu to explain them to me!"

Wang Xifeng is semi-illiterate and has no idea about the things in books, so she doesn't care.

"Okay, you go back to Yihongyuan to pack your things and move."

Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment and quickly glanced at Lin Daiyu. At this time, Lin Daiyu also had some confusion in her eyes.

"Second sister-in-law, we live well in Yihongyuan, where should we move?"

"The old lady has promised to let you two move to Dingxihou Mansion for a while." Wang Xifeng said with a smile.

Jia Baoyu's face turned pale when he heard this: "Good sister, what's going on?"

"My master wrote a letter from Hainan before you got married, asking Brother Rui to supervise your studies after you get married. That's not true. Today Rui Geer went to the old lady to tell her, and the old lady has agreed."

Jia Baoyu's face turned even paler after hearing this, and he kept bowing to Wang Xifeng, "Good sister, please go and beg the old lady for me. I can just study at home. There is no need to leave."

"Baoyu, it's not that I won't help you. Brother Rui is already waiting at the gate of the Grand View Garden with his own soldiers. If I hadn't stopped you, you would have been captured by now." Wang Xifeng shook her head and told the truth.

Jia Baoyu was completely desperate.

Lin Daiyu blinked at the side, then pulled Raja Baoyu's sleeve and said softly to him: "Don't be afraid, I will always be with you."

With Lin Daiyu's encouragement, Jia Baoyu finally looked better, and then he said with a wry smile: "That's it, I'll go back and pack my things."

Wang Xifeng nodded in agreement, and then the three of them took their mother-in-law back to Yihongyuan along the path between flowers.

Yihong Courtyard was still as busy as ever, with several little maids fluttering butterflies outside, and crisp laughter could be heard from time to time.

There was also the eldest maid sitting under the corridor, drinking tea, eating melon seeds, and pointing at the little maids.

When Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu came in, the maids immediately rushed up and entered the house with these two treasures.

After Jia Baoyu came in, he sat down on the stool and sighed to the attacker who was supporting him:

"Pack some clothes and daily supplies for me, I'm going out."

The attacker quickly asked: "Second Master, you just got married, where are you going?"

Lin Daiyu glanced at Wang Xifeng who followed, and then said to the attacker calmly: "I'm going to stay at Dingxihou Mansion for a few days."

"Okay, why do you want to move there?" Xiren was a little confused.

"Stop talking and pack your master's things quickly!" Wang Xifeng sat aside and drank the tea brought by her maid She Yue.

Xiren glanced at Jia Baoyu and saw that he still nodded. He could only mutter and go to pack clothes behind him.

"Zijuan, you also pack my supplies, and I will follow the second master later." Lin Daiyu ordered.

Zijuan did not feel uncomfortable, because she and Lin Daiyu lived in Dingxihou Mansion for a period of time, and she was already familiar with the environment there.

Therefore, Zijuan soon came to Lin Daiyu with three or four packages.

But Jia Baoyu's side was not so relaxed and happy. Half an hour had passed and Xiren hadn't packed up his things yet.

At this moment, the door curtain was lifted and Xue Baochai walked in from the outside.

She walked through the door, nodded lightly to Wang Xifeng, and then came to sit next to Lin Daiyu.

"Sister, it's getting late. My uncle is impatient with waiting, so he asked me to come in and hurry you up." Xue Baochai said while arranging Lin Daiyu's somewhat messy hair.

Lin Daiyu glanced at Jia Baoyu helplessly, and then pursed her lips.

Xue Baochai and Wang Xifeng, who was sitting next to them, looked at each other with a smile on their brows. After a few glances, the two of them had reached a united front.

"Baoyu, if you don't leave, my uncle will send his own soldiers to arrest you. When that happens, don't blame these people for being rude." Xue Baochai threatened.

Jia Baoyu was startled, and then hurriedly shouted to the attacker behind him: "It's enough to pack a few clothes. If there is anything missing, come back and get it."

The attacker agreed inside and quickly walked out holding several huge packages.

Wang Xifeng watched from the side and her mouth twitched.

Xiren used to be a very capable maid, what is going on today?

In fact, Xiren was also stalling for time. She also wanted Jia Mu to send a message so that their Baoyu would not have to leave. It seemed that she didn't quite believe what Wang Xifeng said about Jia Mu's consent.

It's a pity that she didn't wait for Jia Mu after all, and finally walked out under the urging of Wang Xifeng and Xue Baochai.

"Okay, I've got everything, let's go!" Wang Xifeng winked at the women who were following, and the women immediately stepped forward and took the package from Zijuan and Xiren.

"Wait a moment, I'll pick a few people to call you." Xiren said hastily, and then ran into the yard.

After swimming for a while, a burst of soft quarrels came from the yard.

After a while, the voice slowly became quieter, and finally the door curtain was raised, and Xiren walked in from the outside with four maids.

Xue Baochai took a quick look and saw these maids. They were indeed beautiful, that is, they were slightly worse than Qingwen who had been taken over by Jia Ruixin.

Xue Baochai looked at Lin Daiyu again and saw that she had no other expression. Then he pulled Lin Daiyu to stand side by side, and then walked out holding Wang Xifeng's hand.

Jia Baoyu followed them glumly, pouting.

In this way, after the group left Yihongyuan in a mighty manner, they arrived at the gate of Grand View Garden.

After arriving, the first thing Jia Baoyu saw was nearly twenty soldiers standing at the door.

This frightened Jia Baoyu, and at the same time he felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he was obedient this time, otherwise if these rough guys came in, they would disturb many girls.

Jia Baoyu is still thinking about those little girls in the Grand View Garden.

At this time, an old maid who looked after the door entered the concierge. After a while, Jia Rui walked out.

Jia Rui saw a smile on the lips of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu also quickly followed Wang Xifeng and Xue Baochai and came forward to salute Jia Rui.

Jia Rui nodded, then looked at Jia Baoyu and the four or five maids behind him, frowned and said to Xue Baochai:

"Our family doesn't have a lot of maids, so why do we let these people follow us?"

Xue Baochai immediately agreed: "That's what the uncle said."

Then Xue Baochai said to Wang Xifeng: "Second sister-in-law Lian, only two personal maids are left. Let the others go back to Yihongyuan."

Wang Xifeng agreed, then turned to everyone and said, "Zijuan and Xiren will follow, and everyone else should go back."

The maids who followed had disappointment in their eyes, and their faces looked a little sad when they looked at Jia Baoyu.

This is no wonder, mainly because before Jia Baoyu got married, although they had all been possessed by Jia Baoyu, none of them could get pregnant.

Now that Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu are finally married, they, the maidservants who are married to each other, have a way out.

As long as they are pregnant with Jia Baoyu's child, whether it is the eldest son or the concubine, they will not be able to escape the position of aunt. They will separate the family in the future, and they will still be able to become landlords.

As a result, just a few days after being happy, Jia Baoyu was taken away. Then wouldn't they, the maids who couldn't follow them, have to wait every day?

Although they didn't want to, their arms couldn't twist their thighs, and in the end these people could only leave in frustration.

Jia Baoyu actually wanted to beg for mercy. He opened his mouth several times and the words came to his lips, but when he saw Jia Rui's serious expression, he immediately swallowed the words back.

"Okay, let's go."

After Jia Rui finished speaking, he turned around and walked out. Lin Daiyu and others quickly followed. Surrounded by soldiers, they arrived at the second gate of Rongguo Mansion.

When they got here, they naturally changed into small sedans, and then walked out from the side door of Rongguo Mansion and entered through the side door of Dingxihou Mansion, and arrived at the front yard of Dingxihou Mansion.

The front yard of Dingxihou Mansion is also very neat and prosperous. It is said to be a front yard, but in fact there are many small courtyards. In the front yard, these are guest rooms to accommodate the men who come to visit relatives.

Then, the sedan continued to move forward for a while and stopped in front of two large courtyards.

Jia Rui got out of the sedan, looked up and saw a cute baby sitting on the door frame of one of the gates.

This little baby is Mr. Sun's daughter. It can be said that she was born and raised in Dingxihou Mansion.

Moreover, she is also a good friend of Jia Rui, a girl from Jia Rui, and the two often play in the back garden.

Jia Rui took a few steps, squatted in front of the little girl, reached out and pinched her fat little face.

"Why didn't you go play with Jia Rui today?"

"She... fell... and cried. I won't play with her today." The little milkman answered Jia Rui's words intermittently.

Jia Rui touched the baby's headband and laughed, "Okay, she's not as smart as you. Then when we play together in the future, you have to take care of her and take on the responsibility of a sister."

The little baby girl raised her head and said proudly: "I remember! I will support my sister in the future and prevent her from falling."

Just as he was speaking, a beautiful woman in her thirties walked out of the courtyard.

When she saw that it was Jia Rui and Xue Baochai, she quickly performed the Wanfu blessing, and then asked with a smile: "Is the boss here to see my husband?"
