Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 380 Forced to study

"I'm not looking for you, sir, but my clan brother Jia Baoyu wants to live in the mansion for a while. The yard next to your husband happens to be empty, so I asked him to live here."

After hearing this, the beautiful woman glanced behind Jia Rui and immediately spotted Jia Baoyu in the crowd.

This is mainly because Jia Baoyu is so beautiful. Against the background of Jia Ding and Jia Rui, she simply stands out from the crowd.

Then, Jia Rui greeted people and sent Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu to the nearby yard.

After the two of them came in, they found that although the yard was not small, the decoration was very ordinary.

There was a hint of disgust in Jia Baoyu's eyes.

However, people had to bow their heads under the eaves, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the main room with Jia Rui.

When I went in and took a look, the furniture and furnishings inside could only be considered to be of average quality, which was far behind Yihongyuan.

Jia Rui, who was walking in front, entered the room and casually touched the table and found that it was spotless. He was very satisfied.

Then Jia Rui turned around and said to Lin Daiyu: "Sister, you will live here temporarily. Although the conditions are not as good as Yihongyuan, there is nothing missing. We live here mainly for Baoyu."

Lin Daiyu nodded, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Rui. This is already very good."

After Jia Rui smiled with satisfaction, he turned to Xue Baochai and said, "Arrange a few more maids to come and serve."

"Yes, sir."

After the arrangements were made, Jia Rui said to Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, "That's it. You guys clean up first. I have something else to do."

After saying that, they took Xue Baochai outside. Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu sent the two to the door of the courtyard and watched them go to the inner courtyard before returning.

After returning to the house, Jia Baoyu sat down on the stool.

This is Lin Daiyu bringing a cup of tea to Jia Baoyu's side, "Since we can't escape, just study with peace of mind and get the merit exam as soon as possible so that we can go back."

There was a hint of anger on Jia Baoyu's face, but looking at Lin Daiyu's face, the anger was suppressed.

Lin Daiyu knew Jia Baoyu's temper very well. Seeing him sulking here, she could only shake her head and let Jia Baoyu calm down for a while.

Afterwards, Lin Daiyu and Xiren Zijuan began to open the packages and arrange daily necessities.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was time for lunch.

There was a call from the boy outside.

After a while, the attacker came in carrying two food boxes from outside.

Zijuan hurried up to help, and soon there were three or four side dishes and several portions of rice on the table.

Jia Baoyu walked to the table and sat down and took a quick look around. He found that although the food and wine smelled quite fragrant, they only had a few varieties, which were inferior to what he had eaten at Yihongyuan.

At this time Lin Daiyu came over and said with a smile: "Let's eat."

Then Lin Daiyu sat down and put the chopsticks into Jia Baoyu's hands.

Jia Baoyu felt a little hungry after working hard all morning, so he picked up the bowl and started eating. Not to mention, everything tastes delicious when you are hungry. In no time, he finished the bowl of rice.

Lin Daiyu next to her was different. She was full after eating less than half a bowl of rice. She sat next to her and waited on Jia Baoyu until she finished eating.

After eating, Jia Baoyu diligently helped Lin Daiyu out for a walk.

This is also Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu's repertoire after they got married.

The couple walked out of the yard, talking and looking at the Dingxihou Mansion.

After walking around and eliminating food, the two of them had returned to the happy mood they had been in Rongguo Mansion. They talked while returning to their own yard.

But when he was approaching the door of the courtyard, Jia Baoyu heard a demonic voice: "Baoyu."

Jia Baoyu suddenly raised his head and saw Mr. Sun from the private school, standing at the door of the courtyard next to him, looking at him.

Jia Baoyu was stunned at the time, but Lin Daiyu gave him a gentle push, and Jia Baoyu finally woke up.

Then Jia Baoyu moved his steps, taking three steps forward and two steps back, and slowly moved towards Mr. Sun.

Finally, Mr. Sun became impatient and coughed. Jia Baoyu was startled, and then he quickened his pace and came to Mr. Sun.

"Greetings, sir." Jia Baoyu said with his head lowered.

"I heard that you live next to my yard?"

Jia Baoyu felt panic in his heart, "I didn't know that your husband lives nearby, so please forgive me."

"Haha, it's nothing, but if you live next to me, I can always urge you to study." There was a hint of excitement in Mr. Sun's eyes.

Mr. Sun is as happy as eating a flat peach, it is so beautiful.

Jia Baoyu has extraordinary qualifications. As long as he supervises carefully, he will definitely be selected as a scholar within a year. In this way, the day when he will become an official is not far away.

Jia Baoyu looked at Mr. Sun's excited face and suddenly felt gloomy about his future life. "You have been on leave for almost a month and have fallen behind a lot of homework. I will make up for it this afternoon while I have time. Come to me with your books later."

After Mr. Sun finished speaking, he walked back to his yard with his hands behind his back.

But Jia Baoyu was still standing there, his face gloomy.

Lin Daiyu looked at Jia Baoyu's silly look and smiled, but soon she tightened up. She walked to Jia Baoyu's side and asked in a low voice:

"Ms. sir, I asked you to go study for a while, but I seem to remember that you didn't bring any books with you!"

Jia Baoyu trembled when he heard this.

"Hurry up and get someone back home to get it." Jia Baoyu was so anxious that he almost jumped up.

Lin Daiyu tapped Jia Baoyu's forehead with her hand, "You, you, if you are thinking about this, the day lily will be cold. Don't worry, I will bring it to you."

Jia Baoyu's face became a little better, and then the couple returned to the small courtyard. After that, Lin Daiyu asked Zijuan to bring over the book she had brought.

Jia Baoyu stepped forward to check it. Sure enough, the variety was complete, and every one was good.

Only then did he feel relieved, and then he took out a four-book book and took it in his hand to read. However, after just reading for a quarter of an hour, he felt like sleepyheads were constantly getting into his brain, and then he couldn't help but read it. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He didn't know how long he had slept. Xi Ren hurriedly walked in from outside. Seeing Jia Baoyu falling asleep even sitting there, the corner of his mouth twitched, but he still hurried over and patted Jia Baoyu on the shoulder.

"Second Master, Mr. Sun has sent his maid to urge you over."

Jia Baoyu woke up leisurely and looked at the sun outside, then stretched, "What's the matter?"

Jia Baoyu hadn't fully woken up yet and thought he was in Yihongyuan.

Xiren helplessly asked the little maid to bring him a basin of warm water. While wiping Jia Baoyu's face, he said, "Mr. Sun from the yard next to him sent the little maid over to ask you to study."

Jia Baoyu finally woke up completely at this time, and then suddenly jumped up from his seat, "This is incredible, why did I fall asleep?"

At this time, the door curtain was opened, and Lin Daiyu walked in with a little maid.

"Hurry over and let Mr. Sun wait impatiently for another slap in the face."

After listening to Lin Daiyu's words, Jia Baoyu hurriedly shook off the attacker, then randomly arranged the books from the table, hugged them and ran out of the yard.

After Jia Baoyu left, Lin Daiyu sat on a chair and said to Xiren and Zijuan with a smile: "From now on, our second master will be put in a bridle."

Several maids pursed their lips and laughed.

Time flies, and winter is here again in the blink of an eye.

Jia Baoyu has also lived in Dingxihou Mansion for more than two months. During this time, Jia Baoyu can be said to have been suffering in pain.

Every day when Jia Baoyu opened his eyes, before he could relax and joke with the little maid, Mr. Sun's voice came from outside, asking him to follow him for a walk and read in the morning.

After returning from a walk, I had just eaten. Before I could relax, Mr. Sun's voice appeared again, asking to follow Mr. Sun to the private school immediately.

Just like this, the day's private school life was over, and he couldn't relax even after returning home. It was almost evening, and Mr. Sun had to start a small stove for Jia Baoyu.

It was not until late at night that Jia Baoyu was able to drag his tired body back.

At this time, Jia Baoyu was exhausted after a day of studying and had no interest in playing anything. He fell asleep immediately when he fell on the bed.

While studying day and night, Jia Baoyu's academic progress grew very quickly.

Jia Rui once asked Mr. Sun and received a very satisfactory answer.

Mr. Sun said that with Jia Baoyu's drive, he will be able to take the county examination next year.

In addition to Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu's body was getting better and better under Xue Baochai's care. By this time, her face was no longer pale, but became flushed.

At the same time, Xue Baochai secretly asked the doctor to secretly give Lin Daiyu medicine to prevent her from becoming pregnant temporarily because she was afraid that Lin Daiyu would die and become pregnant at this time.

It wasn't until some time ago that Lin Daiyu's body was almost normal, so Xue Baochai stopped Lin Daiyu's medicine.

Seeing that it was almost the end of the year and the Chinese New Year was coming soon, the private school was finally temporarily suspended, and Jia Baoyu could relax a little more.

Of course, it was impossible for him to relax completely, because Mr. Sun lived nearby and had to force Jia Baoyu to read all morning every morning.

But at least in the afternoon, Jia Baoyu had some time to relax.

On this day, Jia Baoyu came out of the yard and walked slowly in the front yard with square steps.

In fact, Jia Baoyu wanted to go to the Dingxi Hou Mansion to play outside for a day, but Jia Rui had already issued a death order. Without his order, Jia Baoyu could not leave the Hou Mansion.

Therefore, Jia Baoyu's current scope of activities is only in the front yard of Dingxihou Mansion.

For some reason, Jia Baoyu wandered to the second gate. When he looked up, he saw a group of people surrounding a beautiful young woman preparing to get into the sedan chair.

Jia Baoyu thought the woman looked familiar, so he stared at her carefully, and suddenly he exclaimed: "Qingwen."
