I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 201 Crazy Jia Baoyu
After giving a few more instructions, Grandmother Jia got up and left.

In fact, Grandmother Jia was somewhat displeased with Baoyu's reaction.

Just as Jia's mother once said:

Children from families like ours, no matter how cunning and strange they are, must behave properly when meeting strangers. If they do not behave properly, we will never allow them to be cunning.

And the etiquette that Lady Jia mentioned is not limited to outsiders.

When it comes to Lin Daiyu, Grandmother Jia feels that Jia Baoyu is disobedient.

But Grandmother Jia doted on Jia Baoyu, and now that he was ill, she couldn't bear to say anything more.

He just gave a few instructions and left.

But when Jia Baoyu saw his grandmother like this, he felt a chill in his heart.

Part of the reason for his illness was that his heart and eyes were filled with Lin Daiyu, and he couldn't get over it for the time being.

The other half is just pretend.

He has extensive experience in feigning illness.

Whenever his master wanted to beat him or check his homework, Jia Baoyu liked to pretend to be sick.

And once he pretends to be sick, his ancestors will protect him.

Even if he made any request, it would almost always be met.

This time too.

However, what he never expected was that this time, even his ancestors could not satisfy his request.

This finally made Jia Baoyu despair.

However, he was still holding his breath in his heart.

He always felt that Lin Daiyu must have been forced and it was definitely not her own will.

Lin Daiyu must have her own thoughts in her heart. She must be like me and extremely opposed to this marriage.

The more he thought about this, the more unwilling Jia Baoyu became.

This almost became his inner demon.

In the end, Jia Baoyu decided to ask Lin Daiyu in person.

As long as Lin Daiyu said it herself, she would also oppose this marriage.

I will! I will! I will...

Thinking of this, Jia Baoyu suddenly became confused again.

What should I do?
Run away secretly with Lin Daiyu?
However, I have no gold or silver, and I don’t know how to make money.

There is no one to serve me. If I run away, how will I live?
Thinking of this, Jia Baoyu suddenly fell into deep fear.

He suddenly realized that even if Lin Daiyu told him in person, she herself was extremely opposed to this marriage.

Even if he knew this fact, he couldn't do anything.

However, Jia Baoyu could not get over the anger. He just wanted to hear these words from Lin Daiyu herself.

So, next, Jia Baoyu focused on recuperating and kept thinking about how he could meet Sister Lin.

How can I ask this question in person?

After three days, Jia Baoyu's health finally improved.

Because of his illness, Grandmother Jia asked him to take a month off from school.

It just so happens that Jia Baoyu doesn't have to go to school.

One day, he sneaked out of the house with two servants, and no one noticed.

This was not his first time leaving the house, and nothing had ever happened before, so it did not attract much attention.

Soon, Jia Baoyu quietly came to Lin's Mansion.

……

Let’s talk about this day, Jia Cong finally prepared the medicine.

Then he packed the medicine and took a car to the Lin Mansion.

Soon, Jia Cong was taken into the back house.

Seeing Lin Ruhai, Jia Cong came forward to greet him. Lin Ruhai asked with a dark face: "Brother Cong, what are you doing in my house now?"

It’s not that Lin Ruhai hates Jia Cong.

The truth is that in this era, once a man and a woman are engaged, they cannot see each other again before they get married.

Otherwise, if the news gets out, it will ruin the family's reputation and make people laugh at it.

Because of this reason, Lin Ruhai was so unhappy when he saw Jia Cong coming.

Jia Cong couldn't help but say, "Uncle, I have been preparing medicine for you at home these days."

"I just prepared the antidote and sent it to you right away. I didn't expect you to ask me this. It really makes me disappointed!"

Although Jia Cong had little contact with Lin Ruhai, he discovered that his uncle was actually quite unorthodox.

Therefore, Jia Cong played a little joke on Lin Ruhai.

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Cong with a half-smile and said, "So, I have wronged you?"

"If you have prepared the antidote, why do you need to deliver it yourself? Can't you ask a servant to deliver it?"

Jia Cong said seriously: "Of course not. I must personally watch over the antidote."

"After taking it, if anything happens, I can provide timely rescue."

There is some truth to this.

Lin Ruhai's expression softened and he said, "In that case, I am sorry for you."

Jia Cong smiled and said, "We are a family, so why is uncle so unorthodox?"

"By the way, it's best if Sister Lin is also by your uncle's side when you take the medicine."

"If anything unexpected happens, Sister Lin will be able to help."

Lin Ruhai glanced at Jia Cong. This guy finally showed his true colors.

He came here just to see Yu'er.

However, Lin Ruhai himself was not a person who followed the rules.

The maid actually called Lin Daiyu out.

When she saw Jia Cong, Lin Daiyu shyly went up to him and met him, only to find out that Cong's third brother had actually helped her father develop the antidote.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Just when Jia Cong was about to give Lin Ruhai the antidote, the housekeeper suddenly came to report that Master Bao from the Rongguo Mansion was here to visit.

What is Baoyu doing here now?
Jia Cong couldn't help but reveal a look of doubt on his face.

Lin Ruhai didn't think much about it and asked someone to invite Jia Baoyu in.

Not long after, Jia Baoyu entered the inner house. When he saw Lin Daiyu, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

When he saw Jia Cong again, and he was standing next to Lin Daiyu, his face suddenly became gloomy again.

Jia Baoyu first greeted Lin Ruhai, then turned to Jia Cong, hesitated for a moment, and called him "Third Brother Cong".

Jia Cong nodded slightly.

After the greetings, they chatted for a while.

Jia Baoyu had originally run out secretly, with a persistent thought in his mind, and he wanted to ask Lin Daiyu something.

However, when the time came, he did not dare to ask in front of Lin Ruhai and Jia Cong.

He didn't dare to call Lin Daiyu out to ask her alone.

Seeing that this guy kept staring at Lin Daiyu and was hesitant, Jia Cong felt unhappy because he didn't know what he wanted to say but didn't dare to say it.

Jia Cong couldn't help but say, "Baoyu, I have prepared an antidote for your uncle and am preparing to treat him."

"If you have nothing to do, go back first. You can come and visit me after I cure my uncle's illness."

"This……"

That bastard Cong Lao San actually wants to chase me away!

Jia Baoyu was filled with anger, but he did not dare to confront Jia Cong.

After taking a deep breath, Jia Baoyu finally plucked up the courage to ask, "Sister Lin, please come out. I have a few words to ask you!"
