The Red Chamber: Lianyufengchai

Jia Lian stopped her in a hurry, "I know your temper, you want to be the master of your own affairs, and you don't want people to mess around. It's done! I'll make it happen to you! I'll go to the old lady's place and have a look, I'm trying to mess up this great thing! But you can't go back and say that I hit the mandarin duck with a bang, and I can't stand it."

Yuanyang is about to kneel down to Jia Lian, "Second Master, thank you for your kindness!"

Ping'er and Xiren supported her, "There's no need for this."

Jia Lian smiled and said: "It's a good thing to say, but why do I think that if a marriage is broken up, will there be evil retribution?"

Ping'er pushed him, "Second Master, hurry up! If there is any evil retribution, also retribute it to this hoof, and let her have evil retribution!"

Yuanyang got up and was about to twist Ping'er, but he didn't want to be pressed down by Ping'er and Xiren. Several girls gathered around jokingly and laughed, as if nothing had happened just now. Jia Lian sighed, The matter of the mandarin ducks, whether it is considered a father's debt or not, is still waiting for him to enter the old lady's main room, when he heard Fengjie say: "That's really a double happiness! In a while, let Erye Lian personally come to the door to propose marriage!"

Jia Lian thought for a while, then strode in and asked with a smile, "Which family's daughter does Bao have a crush on?"

Having met the old lady and Mrs. Wang, as well as Aunt Xue, who had just arrived, Mrs. Wang said, "Baoyu ordered the daughter of the Minister of Rites, whose nickname is also Yu'er."

In fact, Baoyu only said that the person in the painting is like Sister Lin! So Jia Lian nodded and said, "Feng'er Dayan, as soon as I received the gift, I can't say that I will go to marry him today."

Sister Feng said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Jia Lian glanced at Aunt Xue inadvertently, and said with a smile: "Our family has not had such a big happy event in recent years, it's better to have a good one!"

The old lady smiled and instructed: "Keep your brother's affairs in your heart, and marriage matters must not be sloppy!"

Mrs. Wang also said: "Baoyu's father is not here, everything is up to you. How to do everything is up to you to decide. You don't have to report everything to me."

Jia Lian bowed and said, "I see. I will definitely handle this."

Saying that, he stepped forward and bowed his hands to the old lady, "Old lady, I don't know why you annoyed Sister Yuanyang. The grandson wants to ask for mercy for her. Your lord is a lot, so please forgive her once."

The old lady frowned, "It's always been good, when did I get mad at her?"

Jia Lian said: "When I came here, I saw Yuanyang crying on the porch at the back! It's not easy for me to go up and ask, but I asked Ping'er to inquire, and she didn't say anything. Old lady, Nianzai Yuanyang has been diligent and diligent all these years. Sincerely, even if you make a mistake, it is an unintentional mistake, I beg the old lady to forgive her once, and the next time I make a mistake, it will not be too late to deal with it severely."

After hearing this, the old lady lowered her head and pondered. Madam Wang hurriedly said, "Maybe there is something at home. Girl Feng, go and ask."

When Sister Feng heard this, she looked at Jia Lian with a half-smiling smile. Jia Lian spread her hands innocently, not what you thought! Sister Feng walked out gracefully. The old lady said, "Yuanyang, this girl has a kind of: stupid, fixed I know that I want to promise her to Baoyu."

Aunt Xue only said: "It seems embarrassing. Who still leaves the master and grandmother to do nothing, but: I am willing to be a girl! Three years or two years, but with a boy, I am still a slave. It's not... Yuanyangsu diary has a high heart. money."

The old lady shook her head. Jia Lian looked at it coldly and smiled: "If this is the case, the grandson thinks that the old lady is thinking badly."

The old lady was annoyed, "Why do I think it's too bad, it's hard for you to do it"

Jia Lian hurriedly shook his head, "Old lady, that's not what you mean! Grandson means, even if you want to give Baoyu the mandarin duck, old lady, it shouldn't be at this time. Seeing that the daughter of the Han family is about to pass the door, their husband and wife are like a fish in water, if they serve , Baoyu has Sheyue and the others, and the Han family also has dowry girls. Where do you put the mandarin ducks? Baoyu will definitely make his wife unhappy. You are not making Baoyu's family discord: Besides, you should also give birth. After the first son, it was time to get Baoyu a concubine. In the past two years, Yuanyang has been able to serve the old lady well. Anyway, Yuanyang is also a daughter of the family, and she will not go anywhere. What do you think?"

The old lady thought for a while, "I didn't expect this level. I just thought they didn't take care of them carefully, so I can feel relieved if they let the couple go."

Jia Lian smiled and said: "The old lady is too worried, Baoyu will become a relative soon, and she will be an adult. Taking care of daily life is the last part. From now on, he must set up a door and shine on the lintel. How can he be confined to the boudoir? Go to ask the emperor for mercy and avoid the ban, and then you can enter the office from the imperial examination, be a slaughter for an official, and make a fortune."

Madam Wang smiled and nodded, "If there is such a day, I will feel at ease when I die."

Aunt Xue echoed: "I think Baoyu is more intelligent than Brother Lian. In the future, I will definitely surpass the blue. I will congratulate the old lady and sister here first!"

The old lady smiled and said, "It's still a long way! You shouldn't say that."

So she turned her head to Madam Wang and said, "What Brother Lian said just now has some truth in it. For the sake of the future of his children, he will let Yuanyang wait for a few years."

Mrs. Wang also agreed, "Brother Lian is also thinking of Baoyu."

The matter of Yuanyang was resolved by Jia Lian's three or two words. Just when Jia Lian breathed a sigh of relief and planned to go back to announce the good news to Yuanyang, the old lady solemnly reminded him, "No matter who you like, I don't care. But you can't make a fool of yourself!"

Jia Lian laughed and said, "Old lady, in your eyes, grandson is someone who won't let go of a girl."

The old lady sighed, "I don't have much left for Baoyu, you can't ask for any more."

Jia Lian was stunned for a while, "Don't worry, old lady! I will definitely not argue with Baoyu or anything."

He was quite displeased. Yuanyang didn't want to, so you mustn't force her, right? However, he glanced at Aunt Xue again and reminded her that Baoyu is getting married soon! When will you give me Baochai?

Chapter [*] No, Miss Yun and Sister Feng have not come back, so Jia Lian has already made an agreement, so he came out, happened to meet Sister Feng, and told what the old lady meant. She listened with a smile and said: " Second Master, I really don’t want to be a mandarin duck today, but it’s a lovely person, isn’t it a pity?”

Jia Lian took her hand, "Nevertheless, the weak water is three thousand, and I only take one bucket. It is impossible to take all the beautiful things for myself, and to put the cart before the horse."

Sister Feng said, "It's just nice to say it! I don't know what you mean by weak water, I only take one bucket and that bucket should have a lot of scoops, think I really don't know anything and tell me, who are you thinking about? ”

Jia Lian smiled and said: "Let's not talk about this first, you give me the wild goose, so that I can propose marriage!"

Sister Feng spat: "What's the hurry, it's not your marriage!"

Jia Lian said: "Why don't you be in a hurry! I'll go today! I'll save the trouble. For family matters, you have to prepare, I just need to drink."

Sister Feng bowed her knees and responded, "The grandfather of the country has a life, and if you dare not try your best, I will do it!"

Not long after, Sister Feng really bought the gift burden and tied it with red silk. Jia Lian rode a tall horse, with a slew of knights beside him, and went to Mr. Han's house. Although it was only a prize, press: Jia Lian is serious , and handed the wild goose to Han Tong with both hands. Han Tong hesitated for a while. After all, Baoyu of the Rong Mansion has a good reputation and mixed reputation. He only has this precious daughter, how can he bear to marry such a person Jia Lian still holds the wild goose, "Han My lord, don't you give me the face of the maiden and me?"

That Han Tong just cupped his hands and said: "Master Guo, can you let the lower officials consider one or two, and then, I have to ask my daughter's meaning."

After thinking about it, he refused. Jia Lian had no choice but to give him a ruthless memory, and said with a smile: "Marriage matters are entirely up to the parents. It is understandable that Mr. Han cherishes his daughter. After all, it is a major event in life."

After a pause, he said: "I heard that Jia Shangshu of your ministry is very concerned about important people, and he intends to promote his master to be the minister of the ministry, and he is also expected to serve as a minister. I am here to congratulate you!"

Han Tong's face changed slightly. Jia Lian added: "My younger brother had some inappropriate words in the past, but he has come to his senses. Now he is studying the scriptures hard, and he has been praised and pointed by Mr. Jia. You can be like Mr. Jia in this section. Confirmation. Besides, my family has been a prince for generations, and Baoyu is my mother’s younger brother, and the apex of the old lady. Even if nothing is accomplished, she can still be rich for a lifetime. Lord Han, what else is worth hesitating about?”

Han Tong drummed for a while before finally accepting the wild goose, which was considered an agreement. Next, there are other items such as inquiries, Naji, Nazheng, appointment, personal welcome, etc., so there is no need for Jia Lian to come over in person. Naturally, someone will take their place. Completed. It's just that now Jia Zheng is out of office and can't go back for a while. Madam Wang sent a letter to ask for advice. Jia Zheng thought that if he waited for three years to complete the exam, he might delay the good time. Agreed to their marriage. In this way, the two sides have set a good day and auspiciousness, waiting for the wedding. These days, the Rongguo Mansion has been decorated with lanterns and festoons. , Baoyu turned a blind eye, just holding the book and chanting. She Yue said with a smile: "Second Master Bao, it will be a good day. I heard Xiangling say that when we welcome the relatives, we should do makeup poems. The second master has it. No"

Baoyu only said: "This thing is always available, and I will give her a hundred songs in a while."

Qiu Wen came in with a stack of red paper in his arms, "Our second master is good at learning. It will be good when tomorrow's graduating class is selected, and he also wears black gauze and tonics!"

She Yue urged: "Hurry up and put the big red happy words on the door curtains and windows, you can't miss it."

Baoyu murmured the word "raise a man", and even laughed. She Yue and others were used to seeing him talking to himself, and thought he was reciting, so they didn't bother him. Here Jia Lian hid leisurely and wandered in the garden. Walking to Hengwu Garden, the fragrance of exotic flowers and plants is fragrant. The colder and greener those exotic vines are, they are all firm, like coral beans, tired and lovely. From the veranda to the door, you have to lift the curtain to go in. Qiao Baochai was about to come out, when the two faced each other, they couldn't help laughing out loud at the same time. Baochai said, "How did my brother come?"

Jia Lian went in and held her hand, "Good sister, Baoyu's wedding date has been set, and it will be on the third day of next month!"

Baochai hurriedly broke free, blushing and said, "I heard what the elder sister-in-law said early in the morning."

Jia Lian asked: "Then we should also start preparing."

There was only Ying'er in the room. She held the red clothes and said with a smile, "Second Master, our girl has even embroidered her wedding dress!"

Baochai turned his head and spat, "I want you to talk more!"

The wedding dress is about to be put away. Jia Lian stepped forward and hugged her gently, "I promised my aunt that I will use the sedan chair to carry you in the door openly."

Baochai said ashamed and annoyed: "Even if you use eight to carry the big sedan chair, it's nothing more than your concubine. You think it's okay to tell Sister Feng otherwise, she will ask me to make rules every day from now on and let's do it."

"Rule"

"Shut up!"

Jia Lian and Baochai shouted at the same time. Ying'er was busy covering her mouth, and she was still surprised for a while. Baochai also pushed him away, and said in a sullen voice, "Go and tell Sister Feng, I'm not going to make rules."

Jia Lian agreed immediately, and went up to sit side by side with her on the couch, "Sister Baochai, there is actually one more thing I want to tell you."

Baochai looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes without blinking, and exhaled like a blue, "Go ahead!"

Jia Lian thought for a while before finally saying: "This time I can marry you, but I actually made a deal with my aunt."

Baochai still looked at Jia Lian like this, his eyes changed from tender to puzzled, until he sighed helplessly: "Actually, I guessed it. I don't blame you. The current situation of the Xue family is worth a few more than me. Money, there is no other way! Even if my mother doesn't tell me, I am prepared."

Jia Lian said happily, "Bao Chai, then you don't mind."

Baochai pulled his hand out of Jia Lian's arms and said angrily, "It doesn't matter if I don't mind, the key is that this is what I want, the best of both worlds."

Jia Lian looked at her pretty face, and was fascinated when Baochai suddenly laughed: "Brother, when will you marry Yun girl?"

"what"

Jia Lian asked inexplicably, "How could I marry her?"

Baochai stretched out a slender jade finger and tapped a little on his forehead, "There are seven sisters in the garden, Yingchun explores the spring, Xichun is your sister, and I have cheapened you again. Next, when will you want Yun'er?"

Jia Lian shook his head and smiled and said, "To have you is the blessing that I have cultivated in my previous hundreds of lives. I can't bear one more."

The two of them were talking intimately, hugging each other and embarrassingly in the middle. Ying'er quickly turned her face, it turned out that we are not in the same family, and there is also Miss Yun.

Chapter [*] How should you tell Daiyu that Jia Lian came out of Hengwu Garden and sat in the Linshui Pavilion full of thoughts, moaning and sighing from time to time. His shadow was reflected in the water with the waves Dangliang, what a worrying word! Daiyu just came back from Xiuyan Courtyard, passed Linshui Pavilion, and saw Jia Lian sitting there alone, so she stepped forward and called out, "Brother!"

But Jia Lian was still thinking, but he didn't hear it. So Daiyu walked over gently and called out loudly in his ear: "Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Only then did Jia Lian turn around to see Daiyu, and blurted out, "I miss you!"

Daiyu's face was covered with red glow, and she spat: "Not serious!"

He turned around and was about to leave. Jia Lian followed, and he continued to turn around the hillside, wearing flowers and willows, touching rocks and springs, circling and twisting. Suddenly he heard the murmur of water, pouring out of the stone cave, the radishes hanging down on the top, and the flowers floating on the bottom. People posed for photos side by side, and they acted together, but they didn't speak. Seeing that they were about to reach the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the rustling bamboo forest seemed to be pouring out their feelings. Jia Lian slid to his mouth and swallowed, and said with a smile: "Yu'er, go back, I will I won't bother you anymore."

Daiyu put her hands together, "Amitabha!"

Jia Lian asked: "What are you doing?"

Daiyu said angrily, "It's better if you don't disturb me! Go somewhere else to play!"

Jia Lian still hesitated, neither leaving nor speaking. Daiyu asked with a smile, "Brother, do you have something to tell me?"

Jia Lian nodded and said, "Yu'er, why don't I tell you a story?"

Daiyu glanced at him intently, and spat: "If you don't listen to the things you make up, it's better to read the poems of the Song Dynasty. The words are melodious and melodious, and the meaning is long."

Jia Lian held her, "You can also listen to it."

Daiyu stood in the middle of the path, "Then I'll listen to it reluctantly, and I'll give you ten 10-count time!"

After speaking, there were words in his mouth, and he was really counting. When Jia Lian saw her like this, he smiled and said, "I haven't finished speaking a sentence by ten!"

"ten!"

Daiyu said the last number with a smile, "I should go!"

Daiyu made a face at him, "I'm leaving! Keep your story for others to listen to!"

Jia Lian wanted to pull her, but when he saw Daiyu's clear eyes, he felt that he was guilty and he didn't know how to explain it to Daiyu. When Daiyu entered the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Jia Lian followed him. Go to close the door, and the chain will be locked outside. Jia Lian has already entered with one foot, and Ma Shan will clamp his leg, "Er"

Daiyu said with a smile: "Yo, I didn't see it, I thought the second master left! Didn't you go in? The words changed in a blink of an eye. How can people believe you?"

Jia Lian pushed open the door with both hands, "Leave your heart out of you!"

Daiyu rolled her eyes at him, "Just say it, how could I be fooled by the non-stop flowers in my mouth?"

Therefore, Jia Lian took advantage of the situation and took her hand, "Every word I said is the truth. If you don't believe me, let you see my heart."

Daiyu just looked up and down at him. Jia Lian asked in confusion, "Do you think my brother Yushu is in the wind when I do what I do?"

"Pooh!"
