From the Red Mansion, you can travel through the world of martial arts

Chapter 155: Jade Smashing
The next morning, I slept until noon.

"Isn't your brother on duty today?"

Yuanchun was only wearing a diamond-shaped bellyband and a pure white inner garment. She and Baoqin helped Jia Wei dress and wash.

"Since I've missed the time, I'm too lazy to go." Jia Wei thought about working at home in the study, and then he thought of Liu Rushi and Zhou Miaoxuan in the study.

He bent down and washed his hands twice in the basin, then took the soap that Baoqin handed to him.

"My brother has an important position, so you can't be so lazy." Yuanchun held up the handkerchief, "If you delay important matters, it will be my fault."

Yuanchun, like Baojie, is a man of modesty and likes to persuade men to make progress.

Jia Wei raised his face and Yuanchun gently wiped it with a handkerchief.

He lifted up his white robe, pinched Yuanchun's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Sister, have you ever heard that, 'Spring nights are short and the sun rises high, from now on the king will not attend court early'."

Yuanchun blushed with shame in the early morning. She turned sideways and pulled her clothes aside, saying, "Brother, you are talking nonsense again - but this poem is very good. I have never heard of it before. It's strange."

Jia Wei put his arm around her waist and said affectionately, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'll work in the study today and won't delay my work."

Yuanchun was satisfied, and Jia Wei asked for some green salt to brush his teeth and rinse his mouth.

"Good sister, please comb my hair for me."

Baoqin laughed at the side, and Yuanchun felt a little embarrassed. She hadn't even had the wedding cup yet, but she was already drunk...

Baoqin brought the mirror box over, Yuanchun took a comb, combed Jia Wei's hair, and put a silver crown on his head.

"Sit down and I'll comb your hair for you too."

Jia Wei stood up and pushed Yuanchun down again. He picked up the comb, opened her hair, and began to comb it carefully.

The teeth of a comb are denser than those of an ordinary comb, and its main function is to remove lice. Of course, Yuanchun is such a clean person that she would not have lice on her head.

After only five strokes, Yuanchun was so embarrassed that she snatched the comb and wanted to drive Jia Wei out of the room...

In the three-room porch of Lady Wang's courtyard in the West Mansion, the girls gathered in Xichun's courtyard to see her off.

Especially Yingchun and Tanchun, they have lived together for so long and they are both girls, so naturally they have a deep relationship.

"How long has it been since Second Brother Wei came? Could it be that he has forgotten?" Xiangyun said frankly.

Baoyu said, "It would be better if he didn't come. We sisters have lived together for so many years, why should we separate?"

On one side was Jia Wei and on the other side was Baoyu, and no one responded to what he said.

Daiyu held the collection of poems and said lightly, "What he promised will not go wrong. Wait, he will definitely come."

Daiyu's eyes did not leave the page, but she was a little absent-minded, thinking about Jia Wei's incomplete poem, wondering when she would be able to read the whole poem...

Baochai looked up at Daiyu after hearing this, and after savoring her words, she smiled at Xichun and said, "Your second brother still has to report for duty at the government office, and he probably won't be back until the evening, so it will be even later if he rushes over."

Baochai knew this, so she came today. Otherwise, she would not have come if she knew Jia Wei was coming.

After hearing this, everyone remembered that Jia Wei had other work to do outside, and they all said yes.

Daiyu recalled that night when Jia Wei said that he would only let her call him "Brother Wei, Second Brother" before he would show her the complete poem. She then laughed and said, "You, Bao, call me Second Brother so smoothly, as if he were your real Second Brother."

Baochai felt inexplicably guilty and moved closer, "Today I must tear your unforgiving mouth apart..."

The girls were playing around, but Baoyu was not happy at all and looked a little unhappy.

Firstly, he had always wanted his sisters and he to live in this courtyard forever and never be separated.

Although Baoyu didn't care about Xichun, the fourth sister, but now Jia Wei wanted to take Xichun away, which suddenly made him wake up. The other sisters would also leave sooner or later...

Second, he is the second oldest brother. Why did the second oldest brother appear for no reason and took away the sisters' attention...

Suddenly, a maid reported: "Second Master Wei has entered the mansion and has just entered the old lady's courtyard."

For a while, the girls were all playing and laughing, but Baochai was the only one who was a little flustered. However, she couldn't leave at this time...

Not long after, Jia Wei told Lady Jia that he wanted to take Xichun back, and then he came.

When I entered Xichun's room, I saw a group of beautiful girls bowing to me in unison, "Hello, Second Brother."

Jia Wei returned the greetings one by one and looked at Daiyu. Daiyu still remembered what happened yesterday, so her eyes met his and she turned her head away and ignored him. Then she looked at Baochai, who lowered her head, as if there were flowers on the ground, and didn't look at him at all.

Recalling what happened just now in Lady Jia's courtyard, when Lady Jia told him that the marriage had been settled, Jia Wei guessed that Baochai also knew about it.

So you are just shy... Jia Wei looked at Xichun, "I am late, and Fourth Sister has been waiting for a long time. I have just told the old lady, so pack your luggage."

Xichun agreed, and Ruhua couldn't suppress her smile. Then she started to pack her luggage, and the other maids such as Zijuan, Siqi, and Shishu helped, and the girls also went up to join in the fun.

Just then Xiangyun left, and the seat between Chai and Dai became empty, so Jia Wei sat down.

Baochai was also going to talk to Xichun, but she was a step too late. Seeing Jia Wei sitting down beside her, Baochai was afraid that he would leave as soon as he came, so she stayed a little longer.

"What book is Sister Lin reading?" Jia Wei came close to Daiyu.

Daiyu put down the poetry collection and did not let Jia Wei see it. "I am reading Li Yishan's poems."

She leaned forward again, her eyes passed Jia Wei and fell on Bao Chai, and she chuckled and said, "Your second brother is here, why don't you talk to him more? Tell him not to bother me."

Jia Wei was speechless. He knew that if he sat down and talked to Baochai first, Daiyu, who had a bad temper, would get angry again.

"You just talk nonsense. I won't let you go tomorrow." Baochai clutched her handkerchief, her face a little unnatural, and she didn't dare to look at Jia Wei.

When Jia Wei turned around, he smelled the cool fragrance on Baochai. The fragrance was very special, cool, sweet and subtle. It was better than any sandalwood he had ever smelled and was very recognizable.

"Is my sister feeling okay today?"

Baochai suppressed her nervousness and replied carefully.

Daiyu was holding the collection of poems, but was listening to Jia Wei and Baochai talking. Just now when Jia Wei came over, she ignored him, but now when Jia Wei and Baochai talked together, she was unhappy again.

Baoyu happened to come over and asked, "Sister, why are you reading this collection of poems again?"

Daiyu was still listening to the two people talking, and she said "hmm" absent-mindedly, not noticing the change in Baoyu's expression beside her.

Seeing that one of Baoyu's sisters was leaving today and that Sister Lin was ignoring him, Baoyu stood there stupidly, with a dazed look on his round face under the purple gold crown that held his hair together. He felt an extremely sad heart and a feeling of being abandoned by everyone.

He immediately became insane, his face turned red and blue, and he ripped the magic jade from his neck and threw it away, cursing, "What magic jade? I don't want this useless thing!"

The magical jade hit the floor tiles with a crisp sound, and everyone's heart trembled.

Suddenly the room was in chaos, with the sisters coming over to comfort Baoyu. Xiren ran over to pick up the jade, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and cried, "My Second Master, this jade is your lifeblood, how can you throw it around!"

Baoyu was once again the center of everyone's attention, with only Jia Wei, Chai, and Dai still sitting there.

Tanchun coaxed Baoyu for a few words, then called out, "Go and invite the old lady and the mistress."

Daiyu's face was a little pale. She sat in the chair at a loss and subconsciously grabbed Jia Wei's sleeve.

Jia Wei's eyes narrowed, he glanced at Baoyu, and shouted, "You are not allowed to go. Someone, go and invite Master Zheng in."

Jia Wei's words were definitely more effective than Tanchun's, and someone outside the house responded immediately.

The scene suddenly became quiet...

Baoyu seemed to have stopped casting a spell. His face gradually turned red. He blinked, and the foolish and crazy expression on his face disappeared.

Chai and Dai looked at it, blinked their eyes, and actually felt a little happy in their hearts...

Jia Wei patted Daiyu's hand, then turned and gave Baochai a look.

Daiyu finally reacted, and immediately let go of her hand, turning her head to hide her panic. Baochai also understood that look, and couldn't help laughing. She looked at Jia Wei, and felt a little shy...

Baoyu was still standing there awkwardly, as if he was in a dilemma. Seeing that her second brother was embarrassed, Tanchun hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Second brother, how can you invite Master Zheng?"

Jia Wei looked at her without saying anything. He said, "I, Daiyu, am so scared. How can I just let this go?"

He looked at Xiren and waved his hand: "Return the spiritual jade, let me see what it is."

When Xiren heard Jia Wei's unfriendly tone, and since Mrs. Wang had specifically told her about it, she also had a bad impression of Jia Wei, she did not respond and turned to look at Tanchun for help.

Tanchun didn't know what Jia Wei meant, so she could only say, "This jade was brought by my second brother from his womb..."

Jia Wei said, "What kind of jade can't be broken? It must be that Baoyu is too weak. Since he doesn't want it anymore, why don't you let me crush it for him? It will save trouble and satisfy her wishes."

The girls and servants looked at each other in bewilderment. Xiren's expression changed slightly when she heard this. She immediately put the magic jade into her pocket, fearing that it would be taken away by Jia Wei. She thought that he was the champion of martial arts, and how could the jade be good in his hands?

Xiren knelt down quickly and said, "Second Master, this jade is the lifeblood of my Second Master. The old lady specifically told me to take good care of it..."

Jia Wei did not bother to argue with a maid. He leaned back in his chair and did not even look at Baoyu. He just said:

"Where is Master Zheng? Why isn't he here yet? Send someone outside to urge him..."
