Chapter 537 Jia Baoyu’s first clues
The bustle of Rongguo Mansion is naturally many times more lively than that of Ningguo Mansion.
The whole house was preparing for Jia Mu’s birthday banquet, but Jia Lian didn’t intend to ask more about it.
Although men are scarce in the Jia family nowadays, women are extremely strong.
Take the matter of Jia Mu’s birthday banquet as an example. There is Mrs. Wang supervising the direction, and Sister Feng is in charge of the overall command and dispatch. There is also Mrs. Impeachment for mistakes and omissions.
Under Sister Feng, there are three beautiful generals, Youshi, Li Wan and Qin Keqing, assisting her.
Such a strict and complete inner house system is comparable to a small imperial court. Therefore, internal affairs are managed internally, and their family only needs a little help from the side, which is enough.
After going around for a while without incident, Jia Lian came to chat with the little beauty Daiyu again.
“Why are you here again.”
Daiyu looked like she had just taken a shower and was tracing her eyebrows in the mirror.
Nowadays, she is not as shy as she was before to let Jia Lian see her putting on makeup. When she saw Jia Lian coming in from the mirror, she just asked lightly.
“It sounds like my sister doesn’t welcome me here.”
Jia Lian sat down on the stool next to Daiyu, crossed his arms in front of him, and was full of joy. Looking at the little beauty in the mirror with an unhappy face, she raised her voice and said: "If I had known that my sister was like this, I wouldn't have come, and my efforts would have been in vain."
Dai Jade's hand holding the eyebrow pencil shook, and her face turned slightly dark. Although she didn't immediately see who Jia Lian, the demoniac, seemed to have learned from, based on her understanding of Jia Lian, she still guessed that Jia Lian probably learned from her!
Then I felt angry in my heart, what? How could she arrange it like this? How could she... how could she do such a thing!
But Daiyu is also a very introspective person. Although she is angry, she still can't help but think: Could it be that the way I usually speak when I am angry is really like this in the eyes of my second brother?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but blush, and simply ignored Jia Lian and continued to draw her eyebrows.
"Hmph, I know my sister is definitely annoyed with me, so there's no point in ignoring me. If she really doesn't want to see me, I'll just leave."
"You Let's go, I won't send you away."
Daiyu is very smart. When Jia Lian imitated her again, she knew how to respond. She responded with three words in a cool and unrestrained manner, with her tone full of pride and disdain.
After finishing drawing the eyebrows, he found that Jia Lian had not left yet, so he asked: "Aren't you going? Why aren't you going?"
Jia Lian smiled slightly, took the brush from Daiyu's hand, and asked softly: "Is my sister really so cruel that she would not even give me a cup of tea and drive me away?"
Such transformation of Jia Lian made Daiyu couldn't help but laugh, "Who's going to drive you away? It's because you arranged people for yourself and said those things that are not there. Bah, I hate it. Ghost."
Daiyu tapped the tip of Jia Lian's nose, her expression showing intimacy.
Jia Lian laughed, held the stool and sat forward, then pulled Daiyu's body. First, he looked at this deft little face that he could never tire of, and then said with a smile: "I Come and draw eyebrows for my sister."
"No, no. Your drawing is so ugly..."
" Daiyu waved her hand to refuse. Just because Jia Lian helped her draw her eyebrows once, she was not satisfied. She once said that she would never let Jia Lian draw her eyebrows again.
"Believe me, I really learned it this time. Besides, Sister Lin's face, no matter how beautiful it looks, how can it be ugly."
Dai Jade was so praised by Jia Lian that she felt dizzy. In addition, Jia Lian had already stabilized her head and started tracing her. She was afraid that she would be stabbed during the struggle, so she could only believe Jia Lian for the time being, narrowed her eyes slightly and let Jia Lian do what he did.
Just as Jia Lian and his wife were in love with each other and flirting with each other, a crisp sound of joy sounded from outside the door.
"Sister Lin~!"
……
Jia Baoyu has been very active recently, because he found that there are actually a lot of people at home. A beauty.
There is a wonderful jade that although she is in Buddhism, she has a beautiful appearance and an extraordinary temperament.
There are four beautiful music teachers who are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and are extremely graceful. They live in Lixiangyuan and teach the twelve officials.
Even Sister Yuan Yao, who is responsible for organizing the study room of Dongkuoyuan, the second brother of Lian, is also very beautiful, with a sense of pride and refinement in her gentleness.
Even the two girls from Sister-in-law You’s natal family were brought back by her!
Although, except for Sister-in-law You’s two sisters, all the other beauties were basically not very enthusiastic about him, and some even ignored him.
But Jia Baoyu didn’t care much. For him, he was satisfied just to take a look at these stunning beauties. If he could say a few words to them, that would be enough. It is the most wonderful thing in the world and can make him happy for a long time.
As for other things, he didn’t think too much.
Although I occasionally think of Daiyu’s increasingly cold attitude towards her, I feel very sad.Very sorry.
But I thought that it was just Daiyu who was angry because she was still angry with him because of two or three trivial things in the past.
It will be fine after a while.
Today, among the birthday gifts presented to Jia Mu by people from all over, he saw a very exquisite and precious nine-link ring, which was a gold and jade ring (nine-link ring is usually a long and narrow square circle with a set of nine rings).
I remembered that Daiyu also liked to play with this thing when she first entered Jia's house, so she quickly asked Jia's mother to get it, preparing to use it to please Daiyu.
"Sister Lin, look at what this is...what..."
He hurriedly came to Daiyu's room with the nine-ring ring, and just raised it in his hand The Jiu Lian Lian was about to offer the treasure to Daiyu, but in the next moment, he was completely stunned, and the Jiu Lian Lian in his hand immediately fell to the ground.
As soon as the nine jade rings fell to the ground, they broke into pieces and made a crisp sound.
"Brother Lin...Lian, why are you here?"
Jia Baoyu's expression suddenly tightened and he stared at Jia Lian and Daiyu.
Although Jia Lian and Daiyu stopped their eyebrows as soon as they heard Jia Baoyu's voice, the distance between them also subconsciously widened.
But Jia Baoyu came in very quickly, just from where Jia Lian and Daiyu were sitting, and Jia Lian slowly putting the brush into Daiyu's dowry, these simple scenes, He can also easily see...
Jia Lian was painting Daiyu’s eyebrows just now! !
At this moment, he felt as if his heart was going to be broken.
Ever since Daiyu started painting her eyebrows, he had seen her before and offered to help her draw her eyebrows, but without exception, she was firmly rejected by Daiyu.
But now, the person he cares about most does not let him help her draw her eyebrows, but lets Brother Lian do it for her. His heart hurts...
Jia Baoyu His expression was dull, but Jia Lian's expression was very indifferent. He glanced at Jia Baoyu, with a majestic look in his eyes, which suddenly made Jia Baoyu's expression change, and his body couldn't help but stand up straighter.
"I came to see the old lady, and stopped by to see Sister Lin.
But you, why are you still so reckless, did you drop something again?"
"Yes, it is the nine-link chain that I begged from the old lady's house..."
According to the tradition of the Jia family, sons must be afraid of me, and brothers are naturally afraid of their elder brothers.
Although the former Jia Baoyu may not be afraid of the former Jia Lian, the current Jia Lian must still be somewhat satisfied in Jia Baoyu's heart..
If nothing else, just look at Jia Zheng’s different attitudes towards him and Jia Lian.
His father respected Jia Lian's words and was willing to adopt them. If Jia Lian casually mentions something wrong with him in front of his father, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat and walk around.
Not to mention, since ancient times, the elder brother has been responsible for teaching and admonishing the younger brother. With the current attitude of Jia Mu and everyone else towards Jia Lian, even if Jia Lian teaches him a lesson, no one will stand up for him. Jia Baoyu can still see this clearly.
Therefore, when Jia Lian became serious, Jia Baoyu could not help but shrink his head.
"My master always teaches you not to act hastily or rashly. Fortunately, you only broke a handful of nine-link rings. If you were left alone, my wife, old lady, and the others would be very distressed. ?”
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he just lowered his head and remained silent, almost similar to what he did in front of Jia Zheng, completely forgetting the shock, shock, and anger he felt when he just entered the door.
Jia Lian naturally did not intend to teach Jia Baoyu a lesson. He just knew that this guy was somewhat seriously ill when facing Daiyu.
She didn’t want him to disturb Daiyu, so she threatened him with a few words.
Seeing him like this, he stopped talking and stood up and said: "Let's go. I just want to go to my wife's room to say hello. You can go there with me."
< br />Although Jia Baoyu was unwilling, facing Jia Lian's unquestionable look and Daiyu, who was facing the dressing table without even looking at him, she sighed in vain, turned around and followed Jia Lian with her head lowered.
Jia Lian picked up the broken nine-link ring on the ground and held it in his hand, then said to Zijuan and others who came in to see the situation: "Clean this place carefully, don't leave any garbage."
< br /> "Yes." The smart Zijuan had already seen some clues, and she regretted her carelessness and walked away. Afraid of Jia Lian's reproach, he quickly nodded in agreement, and then watched Jia Lian lead the dejected Jia Baoyu away with his hands behind his back.
Mrs. Wang had just finished asking about what happened next, and returned to the courtyard to take a short rest.
I heard rumors that Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu came to greet her, and I was still puzzled. After all, it was rare for Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu to come to see her together.
When they were invited into the house, they became even more suspicious when they saw their expressions.
Finally, she was deep in thought and did not ask immediately. Instead, after Jia Lian's greetings, she asked Jia Lian about some trivial matters at home.
One of the aunt and nephew sat on the kang and the other on a stool in the ground. They asked questions and answered them in a very solemn and harmonious manner. This made Jia Baoyu, who was standing aside practicing closed-mouth meditation, even more uncomfortable.
Lian MuI have a nicer attitude towards Brother Lian than towards him...
"By the way, why did you and Baoyu come here together?"
After talking for a while, Mrs. Wang pretended Tsukuru asked casually.
Jia Lian calmly picked up the tea served by the maid next to him, took a sip, took out the nine-ring ring from his sleeve, placed it on the table next to him, and then looked at Mrs. Wang seriously. .
"I just met it by chance. Brother Bao got this from the old lady's house and was going to give it to Sister Lin to play with, but accidentally broke it.
Let me see it It can be regarded as a treasure, and it is a pity that it is broken like this, so I thought about asking my wife for help and seeing if I could find someone to repair it."
Mrs. Wang was so concerned about Jia Baoyu that she only heard Jia Lian mention " "Sister Lin" three words, and looking at the broken nine-link ring, she immediately understood the general idea.
No wonder Jia Lian made a special trip to see her with Jia Baoyu. It was a lie to ask her to take care of her son, but it was true to ask her to take care of her son.
After all, if others don’t know, doesn’t she still know the relationship between Daiyu and Jia Lian? If Jia Baoyu keeps entangled, it will be bad for both of us if something happens in the future.
Then he glared at Jia Baoyu, then smiled and said: "You are right, this is indeed a treasure.
I have seen it before, Later, he ordered someone to deliver it to the old lady, but the old lady turned around and gave it to Baoyu. Don't worry, even if it is a treasure, it naturally has its destined owner. Since Baoyu broke it, it means he is not lucky. Not its real owner.
So, after I have someone repair it, I’ll return the original thing to the old lady.”
Jia Lian was slightly unhappy when he heard this. He knew that Mrs. Wang was a smart person and that she understood his purpose, but he was dissatisfied with Mrs. Wang comparing Daiyu to this object!
But he had no intention of arguing with her. Anyway, he had already reminded Mrs. Wang. If she didn't think well of her son, she wouldn't blame him for not caring about the family's friendship in the future.
By tacitly allowing Jia Mu and others to conceal Daiyu’s marriage to him for so long, he was already worthy of them.
So he said goodbye and returned home.
Who knows that Sister Feng also took a break from her busy schedule and rested in the flower hall.
As early as the beginning of the year, Sister Feng told him that she would clear out the unused courtyard in the west and transform it into their small garden.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang also knew that the courtyard where Jia Lian lived now no longer matched their status. The couple also worked together to give Jia Lian a bigger place.
It’s just that Rongguo Mansion is so big, and allocated such a large part to build the Grand View Garden, but I couldn't think of a suitable one for a while.
I heard that Jia and Lian intended to merge the other party's small courtyard in the west, so there was no reason to disagree. In this way, although the place where Jia Lian lives is still inferior to Rongxi Hall, it will not look as shabby as before.
Now this project was completed a month ago, and Sister Feng has also bought many precious flowers to grow in it.
Although it is not as good as Jia Mu’s large flower hall, it was completely rebuilt according to Sister Feng’s own wishes, so Sister Feng liked it so much that she spent all day pruning flowers and plants inside.
Even a fragrant couch was placed in the main flower room, and sometimes naps were included in it.
When Jia Lian walked in, Sister Feng was actually taking Xiaohong and others through the sea of flowers and was sniffing a pure lily.
The cool breeze blew the hair on her temples, and her face, with a hint of intoxication, paired with white flowers, looked as pure and beautiful as a fairy.
Seeing Jia Lian standing there looking at Sister Feng, the maids also knew it and did not disturb her. They just looked at Sister Feng enviously from the side.
Sister Feng also saw Jia Lian. She immediately walked out of the flowers and greeted Jia Lian with a smile.
Jia Lian smiled slightly, pulled her and walked towards the hall.
"Why did you come back early today?"
Sister Feng knew that Jia Lian was also taking care of several important things outside and was very busy. Many times, she returned home in the evening. Home.
Jia Lian pulled Sister Feng to sit down on the couch and looked at her carefully, making her feel very embarrassed. At the same time, she felt very sweet in her heart. At this time, she could most intuitively feel Jia Lian's love for her.
"The firearms matter that I mentioned to you before has made new progress, so I gave myself an early morning shift."
"Oh, really? Did your people really help you find that kind of thing? So you are going to be promoted again because of your meritorious service?"
Jia Lian scratched the tip of her nose, "How can promotion be so easy? , and you can’t be promoted simply by merit.”
When Sister Feng heard this, she felt the same way.
She also knew that it was difficult for a man to get promoted. Just look at Jia Zheng and you would know this.
It was just that her man had been promoted several times in the past few years, which made her mistakenly believe that promotion would be easy for her man.
Actually, think about it, last time my man went to Jiangnan with the emperor’s order, I heard that things were done pretty well, and he was only rewarded with some money.Things, haven’t you been promoted?
"Then can you tell me, that gun is really that powerful, and what does it look like when made?"
Sister Feng is actually not very fond of these things. I'm interested, I just want to hear Jia Lian talk to her.
Jia Lian did not mince his words. He simply shared the results with her and wanted to have fun with Sister Feng.
Sister Feng is conservative and only makes love with him in the room.
He has never tasted the joy of fighting Sister Feng outside.
If it were somewhere else, Sister Feng might still refuse, but this is the greenhouse she built happily, and she has no reason to refuse.
It must be a beautiful thing to be in harmony with your beloved wife, surrounded by the fragrance of flowers.
Who knows, Sister Feng still pushed him away, and in his doubtful eyes, she said with red cheeks: "Not today... that one just came..."
< br />Jia Lian smiled and said nothing more. He just put his arms around Sister Feng and gave her a kiss to satisfy her craving.
