Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 359: Attacker: This is to take the anger out on yourself
In the spacious wing, Baoyu was lying on the bed. His face was purple and swollen like a silver moon, his head was sweating profusely, his eyes were straight up, and fluid flowed from the corners of his mouth.

Xiren knelt down beside the couch and pinched Baoyu's lips with his green-white jade fingers twice. The fingerprints were so deep that Baoyu didn't feel any pain at all.

Such lack of reaction made Xiren unable to stop tears from his eyes.

What happened to my second master?

Seeing this scene, Jia Mu felt even more sad. She hugged her and burst into tears, shouting "darling" and the like.

Mrs. Wang was also worried, her eyes were red, and she shouted: "What happened? How could a good person suddenly become like this?"

Baoyu was originally in high spirits, but suddenly fell into hysteria. Such a sudden change must be something wrong.

While speaking, Mrs. Wang's eyes fell on Daiyu on one side, with a dark look in her eyes.

Daiyu was originally worried about Baoyu's condition. She was in the house with her sisters. When she noticed Mrs. Wang's sharp eyes, she couldn't help but tremble, a chill came over her heart, and an endless sadness filled her heart.

Over the years, whenever anything happened to Baoyu, she was always the first to be pointed at.

Thinking of this, Daiyu's bitterness grew stronger, her bright eyes were filled with mist, and the grievance in her heart was hard to express. She missed her brother very much for a moment.

If her brother were here, why would she suffer this injustice?

Baochai also noticed the hidden sharpness of Mrs. Wang. He glanced at Daiyu's strangeness and understood it in his heart. He put his bare hands on the girl's shrugged shoulders and comforted her silently.

In this matter, it was obvious that Daiyu had been wronged, and she felt a little pity in her heart. If Lin girl really married into the Duke's palace in the future, based on Mrs. Wang's current attitude and Daiyu's forthright and innocent temperament with sharp tongue, How to get along well with your future mother-in-law.

I am afraid that I will have to be taught by Mrs. Wang.

And how should I put it, Baoyu caused this incident at the Xue family's housewarming party, which to a certain extent was a slap in the face of the Xue family, but Baoyu had uncontrolled hysteria, and it was hard to blame him.

I can only say that I made a mistake today.

"Sister Bao, I'm fine." Daiyu felt Baochai's silent comfort and whispered with a slightly trembling voice.

Baochai sighed lightly, but didn't say anything. After all, Mrs. Wang was not only the second wife of Duke Rongguo, but also the mother-in-law of the Prince of Beijing County. What could she say.

At this time, Xiren wiped her tears and cried: "Miss Yun persuaded the second master to go to school, but for some reason, the second master's eyes were glazed over and he stopped talking."

Xiren had been waiting by the side before, so she naturally knew the details. She did not add any exaggeration and directly explained the original matter without any adulteration.

Xiangyun was also in the room. As soon as he heard Xiren's words, his face turned pale and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

This is the blame on herself, but she is doing it for Baoyu's own good!
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang looked straight at Xiangyun, her eyes seemed to be on fire. No one in the Duke's mansion knew that Baoyu was taboo about going to school, and they had to coax Baoyu to stabilize him. , but Xiangyun is too talkative and insists on getting into trouble.

It's just that Xiangyun is not from the Jia family after all. Even if Mrs. Wang is angry in her heart, she can't reprimand Xiangyun.

Looking down at the attacker kneeling beside the couch, Mrs. Wang cursed: "Damn little hoof, how did you serve Baoyu?"

Xiangyun was not prone to attacks, but Xiren, the personal maid, had nothing to worry about.

Hearing this, Yanli's face suddenly turned pale. She knew that Mrs. Wang wanted to take her anger out on her, as was the usual behavior of wealthy families.

He raised his head and looked at Mrs. Wang, whose face was livid, with tears streaming down his face, and choked with sobs: "Madam, I..."

There was a "pop" sound.

Mrs. Wang raised her hand and slapped her, and shouted: "What are you doing? You are an old man in the house. You have no sense of propriety. Why are you yelling?"

Logically speaking, Baoyu suffered from hysteria on the spot, and Xiren, as a personal maid, should rush to take her away to prevent others from seeing the joke. This is the most appropriate approach.

However, Xiren's concern leads to chaos. Those who shouted about Baoyu were stunned, and there were many people present. When this matter was publicized, not to mention that the Duke's government lost face, it also made Baoyu a source of gossip for others. , which has a great influence on Baoyu.

At this moment, Xiren's face was frighteningly pale, and he was covering his red and swollen face with his bare hands. He was at a loss for a moment and even forgot to cry.

When Mrs. Wang saw this, she became even more angry. She also hoped to rely on her "good son-in-law" to find a good match for Baoyu. However, this incident would most likely affect Baoyu, which would be tantamount to ending Baoyu's career. road.

After all, any family with a name and surname would marry their daughter to a hysterical person.

Coupled with Baoyu's current situation, Mrs. Wang became even more dissatisfied. She ignored everyone present and cursed: "Get out, you don't need to serve Baoyu anymore."

What's the use of such a senseless maid? It would be a disaster to stay with Baoyu.

When Xiren heard this, he was immediately stunned and froze in place, unable to move.

At this time, Yuanyang saw that something was not going well, so he hurriedly stepped forward, and after a lot of effort, he "dragged" the attacker and took him out.

Regarding Mrs. Wang's behavior, Baochai and others looked at each other in disbelief, but they had no right to say anything. It was a pity that Xiren, such a considerate and considerate person, was kicked out just because he made a mistake that caused chaos.

Jia Mu was now focused on Baoyu, and she didn't want to pay attention to these nonsense. She kept hugging Baoyu and crying.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Yuan Chun suddenly changed the subject and said, "Where's the doctor? Why haven't you come here yet? Why haven't you sent someone to urge him?"

As an older sister, Yuanchun was naturally worried. However, she was still worried, but she did not cloud her mind.

Xiangyun's previous words of encouragement were for Baoyu's benefit, so how could he vent his anger on others? Attacking someone is an unreasonable disaster, but there is no need to refute Mrs. Wang in public because of a maid.

In the final analysis, the root of the disease still lies in Baoyu.

As soon as Yuanchun gave the order, the maid immediately ran to urge the doctor.

Here, Shui Rong mentioned some history, and then turned to talk to Jia Zheng, which was mostly about matters such as the case files of the Governor's Mansion, and his words were filled with instructions.

At this moment, a maid from the Rongguo Duke's mansion hurried over and said, "Second Master, Second Master Bao is suffering from hysteria in the backyard. Please go and have a look."

When Jia Zheng heard this, his face suddenly froze, and he frowned and asked, "What's going on? We were fine before, so how could we have become hysterical?"

When the maid heard this, she said anxiously: "I don't know, the second master was watching the show happily, but suddenly he stood still. Now the wife's place is in a mess."

Shui Rong raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he didn't care. After all, "hysteria" was very "common" in Baoyu and it was an old problem.

After hearing this, Jia Zheng snorted coldly, his whole face turned blue, and shouted: "This damn thing, on this happy day for the Xue family, actually dares to grandstand, and I have to break his legs today."

In Jia Zheng's view, Baoyu's "hysteria" is most likely the same as in the past. It is nothing more than to win attention. It is probably the story of "the wolf is coming". Jia Zheng has been immune to it. Once he is gone, he will immediately return. It's getting better.

Originally, Baoyu was just making trouble in his own home, but this was at the Xue family's housewarming party, and all the people coming and going were relatives. By making such a fuss, you not only slapped the Xue family in the face, but also the Duke's government. All thrown out.

Jia Zheng was a pedantic and polite man who cared about face the most. How could he not be angry at Baoyu's behavior.

At this moment, Jia Zheng really had the idea of ​​breaking Baoyu's legs.

Shui Rong saw that Jia Zheng's face was ashen, his eyes were condensed, and an unnatural look appeared on his handsome face.

This was undoubtedly his biological father. For a moment, Shui Rong didn't know whether to show any sympathy for Baoyu, having met such a good father like Jia Zheng, whose "love knows no bounds".

After groaning, Shui Rong said softly: "Father-in-law, it's better to go over there first to take a look and make plans. Don't get too angry."

Even if he doesn't think that Baoyu is his brother-in-law, at least today is the Xue family's home court. If something really happens, the Xue family will not look good.

When Jia Zheng saw Shui Rong's words, he had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart and responded, "Your Majesty's words make sense."

After that, without saying much, Shui Rong and Jia Zheng walked towards the backyard together.

Walking to the eaves of the corridor, the mother-in-law who was standing outside hurriedly opened the cotton curtain, and Shui Rong and Jia Zheng walked in. They saw that the room was already in a mess, and people were sitting around it. The whole room was filled with a rich fragrance, like a hodgepodge. generally. "What's wrong with Baoyu?"

Jia Zheng looked through the crowd and saw Baoyu lying on the bed with fluid at the corner of his mouth. He was heartbroken and his voice trembled a little.

I originally thought that Baoyu was trying to impress people, but looking like this, he was really suffering from hysteria. As a father, Jia Zheng suddenly became nervous.

Upon seeing this, Shui Rong understood in his heart that although Jia Zheng was strict with Baoyu, he still had the mentality of hoping that his son would succeed, and he actually loved Baoyu very much.

The tiger's poison does not eat its seeds, so it said it wanted to break Baoyu's legs, but in fact it would not kill him. This sincere reaction was the reaction a normal father should have.

But this is a matter of the Jia family and has nothing to do with Shuirong. I felt pity for the daughters in the house with their eyes red, especially Daiyu, who was sobbing in Baochai's arms.

Tsk tsk tsk. I think I was too worried. This is the friendship between childhood sweethearts.

For some reason, Shui Rong felt a sense of unreasonable irritability in his heart, just like the kind of annoyance that the cabbage he had worked so hard to grow was about to be eaten by a pig.

Before anyone could reply to Jia Zheng, the voice of the mother-in-law outside came: "The doctor is here."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "Please come in quickly."

As Mrs. Wang's words fell, Yuanchun, Baochai, Daiyu, Sanchun, Xiangyun, Baoqin and other female relatives walked towards the inner room consciously.

Men and women are different, how can they meet with foreign men?

As for Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang, well, there is no difference between them, so it doesn't matter if they are present.

After a while, the doctor walked in, it was Zhang Youshi who was wearing a green robe.

When Mrs. Wang saw the visitor, her somewhat shabby appearance was incompatible with everyone in the room, which made Mrs. Wang feel unhappy and subconsciously felt that this person was unreliable.

When Shui Rong saw Zhang Youshi, he immediately said politely, "It's Mr. Zhang who's here."

I originally thought that I was going to invite an imperial doctor from the Imperial Hospital to come over for diagnosis and treatment, but the person I didn't expect to invite was actually Zhang Youshi. I guess it was Yuanchun who arranged for someone to go there.

After all, Zhang Youshi's medical skills were well known, and due to Shui Rong's deliberate arrangement, the Zhang family's residence was not far from the Prince's Palace in Beijing, so it was the fastest and most appropriate to invite Zhang Youshi.

My daughter-in-law is still very organized and a good leader of the family.

Zhang Youshi was a man who valued medical ethics over external things, so he didn't think about the red tape. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will take your pulse first."

After saying that, Zhang Youshi crossed the water and walked towards Baoyu who was lying on the couch. After taking a brief look at Baoyu's complexion, he immediately took a pulse.

For a moment, Zhang Youshi's tight brows relaxed and he said, "This is caused by invisible phlegm blocking the heart orifices. Well, in layman's terms, it means mental symptoms after being stimulated. It's okay."

As soon as they heard "It doesn't matter", everyone's worries immediately relaxed.

But Jia Mu was still a little worried and asked, "Is it really okay?"

Zhang Youshi knew that the family members were concerned about the patients, so he looked calm and nodded: "It doesn't matter. If something goes wrong, I'm willing to shoulder the responsibility."

At this time, Shui Rong said: "Mr. Zhang is a Miao Lin Xingshou. Since Mr. Zhang said it's okay, Baoyu will be fine. Old lady, don't worry."

Seeing Shuirong's guarantee, Jia Mu and others naturally had nothing to say, and their worried hearts were completely relieved.

Zhang Youshi felt relieved at Shui Rong's support and said: "Your Majesty, please stay here and prescribe a prescription to soothe your nerves. The young master will be fine if he rests for a few days.

It's just that the young master should not be over-stimulated. Otherwise, the disease will be capricious and affect the young master's life. "

When Jia Mu and others heard this, they were all startled. Their eyes fell on Jia Zheng, who looked "harmless to humans and animals", leaving Jia Zheng confused for a moment, with a hint of embarrassment on his face.

Shui Rong also roughly understood the situation, but he didn't say anything. After chatting with Zhang Youshi for a few words, he asked the maid to take him down to have tea.

As the outsider "Zhang Youshi" left, Jia's mother had no scruples. When she looked up at Jia Zheng, she got angry and cursed sternly: "It's all your fault. He has to be forced to go to school. A good person is forcing him to go to school." It became like this.”

Jia Mu also figured it out by now. It was just that she forced Baoyu to study too much, and she became hysterical.

Jia Zheng was startled when he heard this. How could it be his fault?

But when I thought about it, Zhang Youshi's previous advice still rang in my ears, coupled with Jia Mu's words, Jia Zheng immediately scratched his head and said hurriedly: "Mother, my son let Baoyu go to school for the sake of honoring the ancestors. Mother's How can I bear it?"

Hearing this, Jia Mu spat and snorted: "You can't stand it if I say a word. If you force Baoyu to go to school like that, how can Baoyu be able to stand it?"

As she spoke, Jia Mu's cloudy eyes began to shed tears without realizing it, filled with sadness.

When Jia Zheng saw that Jia Mu was really angry, he quickly knelt down and said with tears in his eyes: "What mother said is so embarrassing for the child."

Shui Rong looked at this scene with a strange feeling in his heart.

Jia's mother is seventy or eighty years old, a shrewd person, but she can be unreasonable. It is really a "little temper" in her daughter's family, regardless of age.

And Jia Zheng, who was nearly fifty years old, still knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.
At this moment, Yuanchun walked in. She had not gone to the cubicle before, but was waiting outside. From time to time, she sent Baoqin to find out news. After learning that Zhang Youshi had left, she was worried about Baoyu, so she came in to take a look.

Just seeing this scene, Yuanchun was a little surprised. An unnatural color appeared on his plump face, and he looked vaguely cute, but actually a little cute.

Shui Rong glanced at Yuan Chun, not feeling funny in his heart, and gave Yuan Chun a reassuring look to prevent her, as a sister, from worrying too much.

Thinking that it was his father-in-law after all, he couldn't look at Jia Zheng's embarrassment, so he said to Xini: "Old lady, my father-in-law also hopes that his son will succeed, and he hopes that Baoyu will become a talent soon."

When Jia Zheng heard this, he nodded slightly, his brows and eyes full of approval. These words spoke to his heart.

Jia's mother understood Shui Rong's good intentions. After sighing, her eyes filled with tears, she said, "Even if you hope your son will become a dragon, you can't force someone to look like this."

She didn't know that Jia Zheng was looking forward to Baoyu's good. In fact, not only Jia Zheng, Jia's mother herself and Mrs. Wang also hoped that Baoyu would become a talented person so that he could support the reputation of the Duke's palace.

If not, they wouldn't let it go.

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Mu and started to cry again. His face was filled with resentment and he didn't know what to say.

Shui Rong groaned, his eyes fell on Jia Zheng, and advised: "My father-in-law also heard what Mr. Zhang said. Don't over-stimulate him in the future. For the sake of Baoyu's health, Baoyu's enrollment in school should be slowed down for now."

In fact, for Baoyu, no matter how much Jia Zheng forced him, the mud could not hold him up, so Shui Rong had not paid much attention to Baoyu for a long time.

Zuo Baoyu was not a person of bad character, so he let him be the son of a rich family. While saving trouble, he could also get a good job like Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang. Why not do it.

"This"

Hearing this, Jia Zheng showed hesitation on his face, obviously unhappy.

Seeing this, Mother Jia immediately shouted: "You don't have to be angry with me. I shouldn't care how you discipline your son. I guess you are tired of us ladies, so why don't we leave you as soon as possible?" Clean everyone!”

After saying that, Jia said with a sad face: "Your wife Baoyu and I will go back to Nanjing immediately!"

As soon as these words came out, Jia Zheng turned pale with fright and said hurriedly: "Children, listen to their mother."

Seeing Jia Zheng softening, Jia's mother snorted, then ignored him, pulled Baoyu on the bed and said gently: "Baoyu, you heard me, your father will not force you to go to school in the future."

At this time, Baoyu, who had no reaction at all, suddenly started making a fuss all over the bed and shouted: "Don't go to school, don't go to school!"

Seeing that Baoyu had regained his energy, Jia Mu and others' eyes suddenly lit up and they hurriedly comforted him.
