Jia Baoyu from the Red Chamber

spn chapter [-] Jia Zheng's heart

After a few more days, everything went on as usual, the whole Rong Mansion was full of spring, and Jia Baoyu also had a few springs, but it was not very comfortable, because there were always various reasons in the middle of it. Interrupted, Jia Baoyu knew the reason and was even more dissatisfied, even if he wanted to be a beast, he couldn't do it.

Jia Baoyu has a new thing, teaching Jia Lan to read, this was discussed with Mrs. Wang yesterday, and it also has the effect of allowing Jia Baoyu to consolidate what he has learned before.

"Hello, Second Master Bao." "Hello, Second Master Bao." All the way past, Jia Baoyu saluted, and Jia Baoyu nodded. Jia Baoyu didn't go to Li Wan to teach Jia Lan to read, but to Jia Zheng. Well, it has been a long time since Jia Zheng had taken the school exam and Jia Baoyu had been free for the past two days, so he sent someone to inform Jia Baoyu that he was going to take the school exam today.

The person who sent the news to Jia Baoyu was no longer arrogant, but very obedient, afraid that what he said was not as good as Jia Baoyu's intention, and Jia Baoyu would be angry. He remembered his previous attitude towards Jia Baoyu, and the people in the courtyard knew No one was worried about the school exam. Everyone in the mansion knew that Second Master Bao was not what he used to be. [

When Jia Baoyu arrived outside Jia Zheng's study, he saw Wang Gui waiting. Wang Gui was a servant who was close and obedient to Jia Baoyu, and he was extremely loyal to Mrs. Wang and Jia Baoyu. That's right, Jia Baoyu asked with some doubts: "Wang Gui, haven't you been promoted to the manager of this yard? Why are you still here?"

Wang Gui bowed after hearing this and said, "The young one is waiting for the second master on purpose. Today, the master will not only take the exam for the second master but also the third master of the school ring."

Jia Baoyu nodded after hearing this, Wang Gui is afraid that he only needs to tell himself that he and Jia Huan are the ones taking the exam today, whether it is sincerity or speculation, Wang Gui's behavior is a bit deep Jia Baoyu thought about everything big and small for himself, "I see, thank you very much." Jia Baoyu went in as he spoke, and the word of thanks was already an expression of his opinion.

Wang Gui was neither happy nor worried when he heard it. He is not the kind of person who would speculate, but he is really sincere. The Wang family is kind to Wang Gui's family. He followed Mrs. Wang to Jia's mansion and naturally listened to Mrs. Wang. For Mrs. Wang's sake, naturally everything is for Jia Baoyu's sake, and it is precisely because Jia's mother saw this that she was relieved to hand over the affairs of Jia Zheng's place to Wang Gui.

When Jia Baoyu entered, Jia Zheng was reading a book, "Please greet the master." Jia Baoyu bowed.

Jia Zheng seemed to nod his head tepidly, and said, "You just wait on the sidelines. When Brother Huan comes, I will test you together."

Jia Baoyu nodded, took out a book from the bookshelf beside him and sat down to read it. Jia Zheng didn't show any anger or anger on the surface when he saw it, but he was very happy in his heart. When working with people outside, Jia Zheng was most afraid of outsiders talking about it. When asked about his children's studies or other achievements, Jia Zheng always kept silent and pretended not to hear.

This is really because Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan are too disappointing. Jia Huan is just a concubine, and Jia Zheng doesn't have any expectations for Jia Huan in his heart, and others don't care, but Jia Baoyu is too famous Now, every time others said that the son who was born with jade was inevitable in their family, they would ask Jia Baoyu's current situation, but Jia Zheng couldn't answer at all.

Therefore, every time Jia Zheng sees Jia Baoyu's poor performance, he will think of being at a loss outside, small things become big, and big things are shocking. Jia Baoyu was beaten.

But now it’s different, now when I’m talking about the children of various families outside, someone will take the initiative to praise Jia Baoyu after just a few words, how it was in the Imperial College, how it was during the fall, he was granted a title, the prince’s companion specially appointed by the emperor Reading, in the last two or three years, I am afraid that I will be able to be named on the gold list. Every time Jia Zheng hears it, he will say that the last sentence is still far away, but his heart is full of pride.

In the past, Jia Zheng was reluctant to see Jia Baoyu, but now he is eager to see Jia Baoyu every day to comfort his tired heart outside, because Jia Baoyu has made progress. Jia Zheng, who is already in his 50s, feels alive again. Occasionally, he can still have a resurgence of glory, and he is extremely proud of being uttered by Mrs. Wang endlessly.

Jia Baoyu reads the book, but Jia Zheng glances at Jia Baoyu from time to time. The more he looks at him, the more satisfied he feels. Thinking of such a look, such talent and learning can only be achieved by his own son, even the former Zhu Er Slightly worse, Jia Zheng rarely thinks that Jia Zhu is no longer sad, but some just miss him.

Jia Baoyu was concentrating on reading, but he also felt that someone was watching him, so he inadvertently looked over at Jia Zheng, and happened to see Jia Zheng's somewhat gratifying gaze, but Jia Zheng immediately took his gaze back, Based on the somewhat rigid views towards Jia Zheng in the past, Jia Baoyu didn’t think much about it. He just thought that he felt wrong and continued to read his own books. Every point of concentration meant that he could spend less time studying and doing other things. There are a lot more. Based on this theory, Jia Baoyu's concentration in reading is very high.

After reading more than seven or eight pages, Jia Baoyu wondered, could it be that Jia Huan came late when he came too early today, and he was still the same as a year ago, and even slightly worse. If there is any growth, it should be that he has grown a little taller, but he is a full head shorter than Jia Baoyu.

Seeing Jia Huan like this, Jia Zheng didn't get angry, and reprimanded him, "Why did you come so late? Could it be that what I said didn't work."

Jia Huan came in after waiting for Jia Baoyu to come in for a long time, but he didn't want to be scolded, and he didn't dare to refute Jia Zheng because of his meager heart, but in his heart he only thought that it was because of Jia Baoyu himself. Being scolded again made his impression of Jia Baoyu worse.

After such a long time, Jia Huan’s sequelae of being beaten at the beginning have also improved a lot, but because after that incident, Caiyun, the only one who was close to him, didn’t pay much attention to him, which made Jia Huan much gloomy. The appearance looked a little sinister now, which made Jia Baoyu frown.

Jia Baoyu also put the book back in his hand, and stood side by side with Jia Huan. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of being poor, but you are afraid of being compared. , which made Jia Zheng more disgusted with Jia Huan, and even more delighted with Jia Baoyu.

Jia Zheng disliked Jia Huan because he was an eyesore and said: "Today, we will first test the school ring."

After hearing this, Jia Huan said quickly: "The elders and children are in order, let's take the examination of Brother Xiaobao first!" Without real talent and learning, Jia Baoyu in his world still stays in the past, even though now he looks at Jia Baoyu with some vague awe.

Jia Baoyu shook his head in his heart when he heard Jia Huan's reason like a year ago, but he was also ready to be admitted to the school first. Jia Huan is like this, so why is Jia Baoyu not? In Jia Baoyu's heart, Jia Zheng It is still at the level of a year ago. Jia Baoyu's perception of Jia Zheng is only the Jia Zheng in the book. This kind of person is not good at expressing his feelings. Jia Baoyu rarely gets close to Jia Zheng because he doesn't want to be scolded. Naturally, he doesn't know much about Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng listened to Jia Huan's words and snorted coldly, "I will do whatever I say, where you need to command, if you don't return well, you must be beaten." Jia Zheng's words surprised both Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan. Jia Huan was surprised that it was different from what Aunt Zhao said when she came, while Jia Baoyu looked at Jia Zheng with a new perspective, and knew that he didn't understand Jia Zheng at all.

But after being surprised, Jia Baoyu corrected his mentality, but Jia Huan was extremely weak. He was terrified of being beaten. Jia Zheng then asked a few simple questions. It made people laugh and cry, Jia Zheng's face that had no expectations before became even more gloomy.

After the last question was asked, Jia Zheng was so angry that he smashed the inkstone in front of him. Jia Huan didn't dare to dodge it, because he was hit directly on the head by the inkstone. Fortunately, Jia Zheng didn't use much force. , Jia Huan never fainted, but the skin was still broken and bleeding, Jia Huan couldn't stop crying.

Jia Baoyu hurried forward, "Master, don't be angry. Brother Huan is only young now, and he will grow up in a few years." Jia Baoyu was comforting Jia Zheng's aunt Zhao, but suddenly rushed in, "Master, you Why is he so good, why is he playing the ring again, what is wrong with him? You hate him so much." Aunt Zhao's vigor has not diminished at all after a year, and Jia Baoyu is gone to appease Jia Zheng At the same time, she was full of disgust towards Aunt Zhao, but at the same time, she thought that Qingwen should really change her temper when she turned around, otherwise it is good now, and how can she become Aunt Zhao in the future, but then Jia Baoyu shook his head In my heart, I mocked myself how could I have such an idea. Although Qingwen is also a bit aggressive and unforgiving, but she is the most delicate and delicate kind in her heart, while Aunt Zhao is bad from the heart, and she can't see others. good.

Jia Zheng's good mood was all ruined. Looking at Aunt Zhao, he said angrily: "It's because you, the mother-in-law, have been spoiling her all day long, and she has become like this. Get the hell out of here, and don't show up in my house anymore." before."

Jia Zheng was furious.The angry look really frightened Aunt Zhao, who hurriedly took Jia Huan out, but before leaving, she gave Jia Baoyu a look of resentment.
