Red Mansion Huacai

Chapter 114 Clinging

Jia She put down the tea cup, half of his face was frowning, and the other half was blank, looking very strange, and he said: "My nephew, you are wrong. If you can hit your nephew with a flower vase today, you won't be able to do it in the future." You can smash your own elders. It’s okay to be so arrogant and ignore them. You need to be well educated."

"What can I do?" Li Weijian said casually.

Jia She leaned forward and came over and said: "My nephew has only been here for three or four months, so he doesn't know what happened in the past. My sister-in-law was not like this before Baoyu. My sister-in-law looked after Brother Gu Zhu. The son was extremely strict and became a scholar when he was only a teenager.

It's a pity that I was busy sending the eldest girl into the palace, and I didn't take care of her for a long time. Your cousin was also soft-tempered and listened to the man's advice in everything, so Brother Zhu died early.

Not mentioning this, the wise nephew just thought, if Wang can teach Brother Zhu, Baoyu seems to be smarter than Brother Zhu. If he teaches sincerely, how can he be ineffective? "

Li Weijian frowned, pretending to be sincere and nodded: "Maybe it's because my brother-in-law was injured while studying when he was young, that my wife neglected to discipline Baoyu? It's just that it's hard for us to say such things."

"Yes, I just thought that in my generation, I still have my second brother and me supporting the family. If the next generation comes, Lian'er is useless, and Baoyu is such a crazy person, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the family business. It's better. Let's go back and talk to the old lady together, and we must advise Baoyu to make more progress."

Li Weijian glanced at Jia She and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi, don't forget that Baoyu is the most troubled by those classic articles. The right way is to press the cow's head and not drink water. This matter needs to be taken advantage of."

"Oh? My nephew has an idea?"

"Yesterday I told the old lady that since Brother Bao doesn't like the scriptures and meanings, why not try this practical learning. If you succeed in learning, you don't dare to glorify your family name. There is no problem in safeguarding the family fortune. But Uncle Shi also knows that Brother Bao's temperament... I'm afraid he's used to being loose, so he still needs someone to watch over him."

"Well," half of Jia She's face showed a smile: "What my nephew said is a good thing. Then let's——"

"Eh? Uncle Shi, after what happened before, Mrs. Xu may be disgusted with me. It's not easy for me to talk about this."

"This -" Jia She thought for a while, then suddenly clasped his hands and smiled and said, "Yes, the Xue family and the Wang family are biological sisters. I think the Wang family will listen to her words."

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they were uncles and nephews. As for the 8000 taels they owed, no one mentioned it.

The two of them were trying to persuade Mrs. Wang to put her efforts into controlling Baoyu, but since Mrs.His eldest father, Jia Sheli, was Wang Xifeng’s father-in-law. He had filial piety, so he wouldn’t be able to do whatever he wanted when the time came.

How to persuade Aunt Xue, you have to start from both ends.Mrs.

As for whether Baoyu loves to learn or not, and whether he can learn it...who cares?To put it bluntly, if you can’t continue reading the Four Books and Five Classics, you can’t continue studying practical studies, and you can’t even understand the ways of the world, then isn’t Baoyu just a waste?

So what if such a waste is born with a jade in its mouth?Those who have neither fame nor official career are nothing more than a worm. No matter how partial Jia Mu is, she will not be tempted to let Baoyu seize the title.

................................................

Honor Hall.

From a distance, he saw two women coming together with a girl named Pingting. Baoyu couldn't help but stand up and stretch his neck to look around.Since Fu Qiufang, Sanchun, Daiyu, and Baochai belonged to the same generation of girls, Jia Mu found all the girls here.

After a while, the woman stepped through the threshold, and saw that she was wearing a moon-white undershirt, with a simple and elegant head, a melon-seed face, and water-almond eyes. She was elegant and elegant, and she really deserved the title of 'Queen's Lady'!
Baoyu was so happy to see Hunter that he hurriedly said a few words to Jia Mu, but he didn't realize that his situation was falling in Daiyu's eyes.

Daiyu frowned slightly, feeling unhappy in her heart.She has an aloof character and has low self-esteem and self-pity.In Daiyu's heart, she doesn't care about rich clothes and food, but only cares about her unique heart.Whenever I quarrel with Baoyu, most of them are trying to figure out, "Is he only interested in me, or is he interested in other girls as well?"

The temptation has not yielded any results so far, but in his eyes, Baoyu is a person who loves everyone he sees.At this moment, she was thinking, maybe in his mind, she was no different from those girls with outstanding colors, right?

Not to mention Daiyu's dejected look, Fu Qiufang entered and bowed to Jia Mu in a polite manner. She was well-proportioned and had a beautiful face. Although she was dressed in simple clothes, she had a scholarly air from inside to outside. Huizhilanxin.

Mother Jia was not happy at first, but now she felt a little interested. She quickly smiled and asked Fu Qiufang to sit down.

Fu Qiufang did not dare to neglect, and waited until the others had seen the ceremony before Shi Shiran took a seat.Since she came in, Baoyu has not moved his eyes away. Fu Qiufang glanced at her and felt a little unhappy.

She was raised in a boudoir by her brother and sister-in-law, and could not see her outsider. She had never been looked at by a man like this.Although this young man who was born with a jade in his mouth is not very old, he seems to know a lot about people at his age. How can he keep staring at people like this?
However, the situation was so pressing that people had to bow their heads under the eaves.Now that her brother Fu Shi was dismissed from office, she had to turn to the Jia family, because although she was unhappy in her heart, she never showed it.

Baoyu said with a smile: "I've heard that Sister Fu is good, but now I see her. Has she ever grown up to have haircuts? Can she be a good person?"

Fu Qiufang said: "I am now twenty years old, and I have not yet written a letter."

Several girls in the Rongqing Hall looked at each other. They were still old girls after they had not given birth to someone else for more than [-] years.Baoyu put his palms together and praised: "Okay, okay, it's better if you don't have a wife. I have said before that no matter how good a girl gets married, she will become a dead pearl with no luster sooner or later."

Fu Qiufang was extremely unhappy.What does this mean?Could it be that he hopes that he will die alone?
She really didn't want to get entangled with Baoyu, so she nodded briefly and stopped talking, saying that her brother Fu Shi had been taken care of by the Rongguo Mansion earlier, and this time she came to see the old lady.

Rather than Jia Mu chatting for a while, Fu Qiufang didn't sit there with many people. She probably only had a cup of tea before she got up and left.

Xu was greedy for novelty, so before leaving, Baoyu asked Fu Qiufang to come to the door when he had more time, and then sent him all the way to Neiyi's door, still reluctant to look away.

Xiren and others urged him, but Baoyu only responded in vain and still stood there in a daze.The attacker sighed inwardly, thinking that the second master Bao was suffering from dementia again, and he was afraid it would take a long time to recover.

When Fu Qiufang came out of Neiyi Gate, the two women beside her started chatting.

One of them said: "Girl, I see that Mr. Bao is not a polite person. He stared at the girl as soon as she came in, and he couldn't pull his eyes out."

Another one also said: "The master also said that Mr. Bao is often stupid in his daily life. He catches birds so that they can talk, and he can murmur with flowers and plants when he sees them. Such a temperament, coupled with the age difference between him and the girl, Too much, I'm afraid it won't be a good match."

Fu Qiufang only said in a deep voice: "Don't say anything anymore. With my background, how can I be worthy of others?"

She was already smart, and although she had never received a single word, she had already understood Fu Shi's thoughts.Promising Baoyu is false, but being a concubine to Jia Zheng is true.However, Fu Shi has now lost his official position. Even if she is a concubine, she will not be able to be his stepwife in the future.

Arriving in front of the door, he was about to go out of the corner door when he suddenly heard the doorman calling him "Fourth Master Jian".Hearing that it was a man, Fu Qiufang quickly stepped aside with the two women.She lowered her head and took a sneak peek, and saw a young man of similar stature walking from the corner door.The young man's head was wrapped in a bandage, as if he had been injured. He had a long, fair face, and was extremely handsome. His eyes were very lively. He walked slowly, showing a sense of calmness from the inside out.

The young man glanced over briefly, and instead of looking at each other, Fu Qiufang quickly withdrew his gaze. The young man immediately stopped and moved away from the stable.

Seeing this, Fu Qiufang bowed to the young man from afar. The young man smiled and slightly cupped his hands, and then Fu Qiufang and the two women left the Rongguo Mansion.

When he got into the carriage, he saw his brother Fu Shi arriving at some unknown time.

He had a rather anxious look on his face and asked, "How's it going?"

Fu Qiufang said: "I said some polite words, sat down for a cup of tea and then came out."

"Why don't you sit down for a while?" After asking, Fu Shi knew that he was anxious, and quickly changed his words: "It's our first time to meet, just say some polite words. It doesn't matter, you can come again in a few days, and I'll Whether Fan can be reinstated or not depends on my sister."

Fu Qiufang remained silent, lamenting in her heart.However, her parents died early, and now everything is decided by her eldest brother. She depends on him for food and clothing. How can she say this rejection?

Two women also squeezed in at this moment, and one of them said: "Which fourth master was that just now? I knew that there was a second master Lian in the mansion, and I don't know when there was another fourth master."

Just now, Fu Shi had been looking outside through the window and saw Li Weijian turning off the accelerator and entering the corner door.He vaguely felt that Li Weijian had a kind face, but he forgot where he had seen him.As soon as I heard what the woman said, my heart moved.

"Fourth Master? What Fourth Master?"

"He seems to be some kind of Fourth Master Jian."

Fu Shi immediately became energetic and said, "Fourth Master Jian? Li Weijian, this man is amazing."

The mother-in-law curled her lips and said: "Looking at him, he is only fifteen or six years old. How can he be so extraordinary? Could it be that he is a descendant of some clan?"

Fu Shi said, "What do you know? This person is related to Rong Guofu. He is Jia Zhu's brother-in-law. He came to the capital this time to take the exam and learn from Qiu Wei."

The mother-in-law said with increasing disdain: "After all, I am just a scholar, how much can I do?"

"Oh, the water we drink now was created by him, and the water company's livelihood of tens of millions of taels was also created by him. Not only did this man win the favor of King Zhongyong, but he also became the disciple of Shao Si Kou Yan Xiyao. And all of this was just done in three or two months, so how much can he do?"

The old woman was startled and said: "Blind! It turns out to be Li Caishen! I blame my old lady for not being able to see Taishan. Master, I heard that Li Caishen made millions of dollars just from this water company..."

Fu Shi stroked his beard and said: "The money is just incidental. The most important thing is that this person has received a favor from the superior. As long as the autumn comes, he will be able to go smoothly and go straight to the blue clouds."

Fu Qiufang's face was as dark as water, but her heart was in turmoil.I thought to myself, it turned out to be this person!No wonder his eyes are so bright.

The two women praised him repeatedly, and the woman before said: "Sir, I wonder how old this Li Caishen is? Has he made a marriage decision yet?"

"I haven't heard of the marriage, but Li Weijian is only thirteen or fourteen years old now... tsk tsk, that's amazing."

Fu Shi praised her repeatedly, but the old lady said, "It's a pity. I think she and the lady are a good match."

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Fu Shi stopped stroking his beard, pinched two beards and thought to himself.yes!Anyone can see that Li Weijian is about to rise to prominence in a blink of an eye. At this time, if the marriage between Qi and his sister is decided, wouldn't it be easy for him to be reinstated based on Li Weijian's relationship with King Zhongyong and Yan Xiyao?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was much to be done. With his spirits high, Fu Shi suddenly used force and pulled off two rat whiskers, causing him to gasp in pain.

The two women and Fu Qiufang were coming. At this time, the carriage had returned to the original road. Fu Shi immediately shouted: "Stop, I want to get off!"

Fu Qiufang wondered: "What is brother going to do again?"

When the carriage stopped, Fu Shi couldn't wait to lift the curtain and jump down. He only said "I'm going to see Li Caishen", and then walked towards Rongguo Mansion with long strides.

The three people in the car looked at each other in disbelief. Fu Shi's tendency to follow the crowd naturally made a few people feel cold.It was difficult to say this clearly, so the old woman beside her smiled and said: "Girl, I wish you congratulations first. If this happens, you will really be a beautiful and talented man, Luan Feng and Ming."

Fu Qiufang said: "Don't say anything. My brother may have something urgent to do."

I said this when I was a child, but what other urgent matters does Fu Shi have at this time?Because both women had smiles on their faces, Fu Qiufang was also slightly moved.

It was only a one-time relationship, so Li Weijian looked more appropriate than Baoyu.

Not to mention what Fu Qiufang was thinking in her heart, she said that just now Li Weijian was chatting happily with the elder Jia She, and outsiders thought they were uncles and nephews.Just then, a servant came to report that Li Weijian had a guest and was waiting in the small courtyard in the northeast.

Li Weijian said goodbye to his elder Jia She, got up, turned on the gas, and saw Hongyu who came to report the news.

After asking, I found out that it was Yan Fenzhen who came uninvited and was waiting in the courtyard at this moment.

Li Weijian led Hongyu to return home along the same road, but Hongyu said that a door on the side door was broken and was being repaired, so they had to enter through the corner door.I met Fu Qiufang who came out by chance, and then walked all the way back to his small courtyard through the hall and the road.

In the courtyard, Yan Fengzhen was teasing the general. He caught a glimpse of Li Weijian, pushed up his glasses and said with a 'tsk' sound: "Fusheng is getting more and more arrogant now. He usually comes to see me every three or five days. Now you want me to come find you. Huh? What's going on above you?"

　Fu Qiufang.
