Gourmet Red Chamber: A Chronicle of Baochai's Rebirth

Chapter 40
"But there are many annoying good people in the world. Jia Baoyu is not the most annoying, but he is definitely not the best good person."

After all, he was really going to get annoyed, and he kicked the maids unambiguously. Unfortunately, Xi Ren came up to him and forced him to vomit blood!

When Xue Baobao was reading the book, she felt that Lin Daiyu was definitely the only flawless woman in the Red Mansion. Others such as Xue Baochai, Wang Xifeng, Tanchun, Shi Xiangyun, Miaoyu, etc. had their own shortcomings. Only Lin Daiyu seemed to have a petty temper Poor and cute.

Now that he has entered the world of Red Mansions, he has an irresistible relationship with Lin Daiyu, so naturally he does not want to watch her hang from Jia Baoyu's crooked tree.

But she experienced it first-hand, and she was very awed by those gods and ghosts. She didn't know if the dismantling of the official CP of the waiter Shenying and the crimson pearl fairy grass would affect Lin Daiyu, let alone Lin Daiyu still had tears.

Therefore, even though she didn't like Jia Baoyu, unless Lin Daiyu asked, she would never speak ill of Jia Baoyu in front of Lin Daiyu.

Now that Lin Daiyu has asked, she will naturally express her views honestly.

"If you don't believe me, let's make a bet. I won the bet. Every morning after you wake up, you have to laugh three times in front of the mirror and say ten times that I am Lin Daiyu, a beautiful and kind little fairy!"

Lin Daiyu had never heard such words before, and she was stunned for a long time before she realized that she was about to beat Xue Baobao, "You are narrow-minded, you just make fun of me!"

Xue Baobao laughed as he ran, "Why did I just make fun of you, can't our sister Lin still be a little fairy with a kind heart and a kind heart?
Didn't you say that your second brother Bao is okay?Then you bet on me!

If I lose, I wake up every morning and yell in the mirror a hundred times that Xue Baochai is the biggest fool in the world, okay? "

Lin Daiyu was able to talk nonsense when she saw her talking like this, and even laughed so hard that she couldn't breathe.

The two were laughing and joking, and suddenly saw two people coming hand in hand, who else is it if it's not Jia Baoyu and Qin Zhong?

Jia Baoyu and his wife also saw them, and hurried forward to salute, and they returned the salute.

Jia Baoyu usually saw Xue Baobao's indifferent and dignified appearance, but now she saw her smiling face, but she was in a different way, and he was very envious, but he didn't dare to speak abruptly, and only asked, "Sister Bao What are you talking about with sister Lin, so happy?"

Xue Baobao didn't wait for Lin Daiyu to reply, and said, "It's nothing, what are you talking about?"

Jia Baoyu didn't doubt that he was there, and replied honestly, "I was talking about studying with Brother Qin, and I went home because I was a teacher last year, and it has been neglected until now.

We used to have a private school at home, and my father originally wanted to send me to study in the private school, but it was cold a while ago, and then I was ill for a few days, so the old lady refused.

I don't want Brother Qin to have the same troubles now, but he happened to go to school with me to study.

In this way, we will not be neglected by each other, and we can often talk and get together, and we can comfort our parents, and we can have the happiness of friends, isn't it a beautiful thing? "

Originally, what Jia Baoyu said could not have been more normal, but Lin Daiyu just heard Xue Baobao's words, and at this moment she felt uncomfortable, and couldn't help stabbing, "It's embarrassing for you to fish for three days and spend two days drying the net. Reading with others, you still say that you won’t be wasted. Don’t let others be wasted when you are wasted by yourself!”

Jia Baoyu blushed immediately, and argued, "When it comes to reading, one or two confidantes are always companions, and we often discuss it with each other in order to benefit."

Lin Daiyu sneered, "A confidant? You have only seen him for less than half an hour, right? You have become a confidant? Your confidant is too much, too much—"

Lin Daiyu's eyes turned red when she said this, and she couldn't continue. Jia Baoyu often said that she was a confidant. She was very moved, but she didn't know that his confidant could be regarded as a confidant by anyone who met for the first time!

"Too cheap!"

Xue Baobao answered, took Lin Daiyu's arm and left.

Jia Baoyu stamped his feet, wanted to chase but was afraid of Qin Zhong's overthinking, so he just lamented, "I'm really a fool, I can't speak, and I made sister Lin unhappy again."

Qin Zhong wanted to make friends with him, so he naturally spoke softly and comforted him without mentioning it.

That day, they played in Dongfu until it was time to light the lanterns before going back.

Xue Baobao and Lin Daiyu sat in a carriage. As soon as they got on, they lifted the curtain and looked out. Sure enough, just after the carriage had driven for a while, they heard the mess in Ningguo Mansion and an old voice crying and cursing, "I want to cry in the ancestral hall." Go, Master! How can I expect to give birth to these beasts now? Every day, the family is stealing chickens and playing with dogs, crawling on ashes, raising a brother-in-law, raising a brother-in-law..."

Lin Daiyu couldn't understand what climbing ash was, but she could understand raising a little uncle, so she hurriedly slapped Xue Baobao's hand and told her to put down the car curtain.

Xue Baobao also put it down, ha, it really is a fun day today.

Lin Daiyu was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help asking, "What is climbing ash?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Wang Xifeng from the car next door shout angrily, "Don't ask nonsense! See if your wife beats you or not!"

But she must be scolding Jia Baoyu who was in the car with her.

Although Wang Xifeng didn't scold Lin Daiyu, Lin Daiyu's face was flushed with shame, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Xue Baobao did not have the rules and fastidiousness of the ancients, and explained in a very academic and objective tone, "You know, paper money is usually made of tinned paper. People go to temples to burn incense and worship Buddha. There will be a layer of tin ash on the inner wall of the fire pit, which can be sold for money when scraped off, so picking up ashes is also called stealing tin, that is, stealing daughter-in-law, stealing daughter-in-law.”

Lin Daiyu's eyes widened suddenly, and she was speechless for a long while.

After a long time, he finally said, "Which slave--"

Xue Baobao sneered, "That old servant was going to cry for the grandfather of Ningguo Mansion just now, which servant is so respectable?"

Today, Mrs. Qin has been entertaining guests inside and out, and she can't see any signs of depression, sadness, even anger, or sarcasm from her exquisite and glamorous appearance.

Xue Baobao estimated that regardless of whether Jia Zhen was a strong servant at first or whether Qin had regrets in the later period, she was by no means completely unwilling at this time.

Lin Daiyu didn't care if she didn't ask. Since she asked, Xue Baobao naturally wouldn't hide it and said, "A few days ago, Brother Rong and Brother Qiang from Dongfu seduced my brother to go drinking in those sleazy places, trying to trick my brother. money.

I ordered Uncle Xue to investigate, and it turned out that the servants of the East Mansion were not shy at all, but after giving a few taels of silver, they poured out everything!

It made Uncle Xue vigilant, and after he came back, he punished the servants at home, and drove out anyone who was greedy for petty gains and full of nonsense."

Lin Daiyu obviously suffered a huge impact on her three views, her little face was flushed, and she was about to cry, "Well, that Baoyu is still with her brother—"

Xue Baobao said meaningfully, "That's not all, I heard from Uncle Xue that Baoyu's cousin went to the East Mansion and wanted to rest when he was tired, but he actually slept in Qin's room!"

"You, you mean, the foster uncle, uncle—"

Lin Daiyu was trembling all over, and her voice was even more trembling. She actually suspected that the words "raise a younger uncle" were referring to Jia Baoyu.

At this time, Xue Baobao wanted to frame Jia Baoyu, so it was easy to completely break Lin Daiyu's heart, but she couldn't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. After thinking about it, she regretfully decided to tell the truth.

"Cousin Baoyu is an uncle of the Qin family, but he can't be called a young uncle, and Uncle Xue didn't say anything else about the news he inquired about. He only said that cousin Baoyu took a nap in the Qin family's room last time when Ningguo Mansion invited guests." .

Even so, Lin Daiyu still couldn't accept it, she didn't speak any more along the way, she was in a trance, she didn't know what she was thinking, and her eyes were out of focus.

Xue Baobao didn't expect such a big reaction from her, and was afraid that it would stimulate her into something wrong. That night, she didn't dare to go back to Lixiangyuan, secretly got the stream water from the space, made Lin Daiyu a soothing soup, and then slept with Lin Daiyu in the same bed up.

Perhaps it was the effect of that bowl of calming soup, Lin Daiyu slept soundly all night, and woke up late in the morning, languidly leaning on the pillow and unwilling to get up.

Xueba doesn't get up, and Xue Baobao, a scumbag, naturally doesn't get up. She only hates that she doesn't have a mobile phone now, so she can stay in bed all day.

The two of them had a very tacit understanding and didn't mention what happened yesterday. They had a chat one after another, and Lin Daiyu's true color as a schoolmaster was revealed, "Get up, don't be late later, and make your husband angry."

Xue Baobao had no choice but to get up, and the two of them ate whatever they wanted without going to class.

Two days later, it was heard that Jia Baoyu and Qin Zhong had gone to Jia's family school to study together.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu didn't mention it, Xue Baobao didn't mention it.

Two days later, Mrs. Xue finally received a reply from Wang Ziteng.

In the letter, Wang Ziteng only said lightly about Mrs. Wang's payment of 20 silver from Xue's bank, which he knew.

I don't know whether it was known after Mrs. Xue wrote the letter, or before she wrote the letter.

He also ordered Mrs. Xue to burn the original account book so that no one would see the joke.

He also said very sternly that it was unwise for Mrs. Xue to give up the Xue family. If she makes such an important decision next time, she must discuss it with him.

Mrs. Xue read the letter and remained silent. Baby Xue hit the nail on the head, "Uncle is also counting on our family's money!"

After Xue Baobao's "education of love", Xue Pan knew the importance of money, and immediately added, "And uncle doesn't want to pay back the money at all!"

Xue Baobao looked at Mrs. Xue's expression, "Mom, originally father and uncle agreed to give uncle a sum of money at the end of each year.

My father naturally has his reasons for doing things, but my aunt took advantage of my father's death and my brother didn't know what to do, so I don't know what to do.

I wrote a letter to my uncle, but my uncle didn't even give an explanation, let alone the matter of repaying the money. Could it be that my uncle dared to do the same to my aunt?
But it’s not exactly what I said, even the blood of direct relatives should be divided into three, six, and nine grades.”

Suddenly Mrs. The poor relatives who beat the autumn wind.

Elder Brother Zuo Zuo now has a serious official position, and has the favor of the emperor, no one dares to bully us easily.We are a bit self-serving, if we don't think about the unattainable glory and wealth every day, isn't it enough? "
