Chapter 23 Baoyu is very busy
Green surrounds the mountains.
Since Emperor Yuanzhen visited this mountain, the Cuihuan Mountain has undoubtedly become a place for immortals. He is close to the Taoist temple, the court has distributed it, and Lin Dong has transferred it to the Taoist temple, and has collected many Taoist priests. He practiced in this Cuihuan Mountain. Lin Dong would have nothing to do in his spare time and would also come out of the Huanzhen Temple and talk about Taoism with these Taoist priests.
There are not only men's view but also women's view. Qingwen and Daiyu are also talking in this mountain, but they do not seem lonely.
Lin Dong knew exactly what Jia Baoyu was doing now, and it was really disgusting.
It seems difficult for straight men to accept things like doing something like that. If you get rid of the anus, you will feel disgusting and uncomfortable. However, for people like Jia Baoyu, they are really enjoying it. It is precisely because of this that Lin Dong lost the interest in watching the show and became more disgusting.
As Lin Dong knows, the only one who reborn relies on selling chrysanthemums to make money.
He stood up and arrived at the Glazed Fairyland. In this Glazed Fairyland, Lin Meimei was sitting in the pavilion, holding a copy of "The West Chamber" in her hand and reading it silently.
The West Chamber is a cool story in ancient times. It tells the story of the prime minister's daughter Cui Yingying and a scholar Zhang Junrui who made love privately, but there were many obstacles. For love, Zhang Junrui was the top scorer and finally got married.
In this ancient environment, such books were not something that Lin Daiyu could read, because if you read too many such miscellaneous books, your heart would be confused. Usually, they would read the Four Books and Five Classics, and read the tyrants of all generations, know how to follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, be cautious in words and actions, and become the eldest lady under the constraints of ethics.
Lin Dong didn't make a sound, leaned against the side to look at the scenery, restrained his spiritual thoughts, and did not want to observe what Jia Baoyu was doing at this time.
Until Lin Daiyu finished reading the West Chamber, and when she looked up and saw Lin Dong, she let out a whisper, her face turned red, and she reached out to hold the book and hid it back.
"It's just reading the West Chamber, what's there to hide?"
Lin Dong said with a smile.
The three obediences and four virtues in ancient times were all oppression on women. As for the stories of the female biographies, they were not worthy of publicity at all. However, people like Daiyu were too poisoned by this aspect. If they were forced to correct or enlighten them, they would be disgusted, which would be unbeautiful.
Lin Meimei's personality, unintentional words all touched her heart. She was usually too sensitive, and Lin Dong was also avoiding her easily.
"I'm just this time, why bother to hold on to you?"
Lin Meimei took out the "The West Chamber" and thought Lin Dong was holding her shorthand.
"Why am I holding you?"
Lin Dong laughed and said, "It's just a book of the West Chamber, and it's nothing. Even if you are educated and poisoned by this female virtue, you are too deeply poisoned. In my opinion, men and women are equal and have the same status. Even in this officialdom, there should be female officials and empresses in the court. Girls should be as generous as men. In pursuit of marriage and love, they should be as free as Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying."
What Lin Dong said was the truth and also the result of contemporary concepts. However, in Lin Daiyu's opinion, such words were really shocking and incredible, but they also expressed the aura in her chest as a woman.
"Where can this kind of thing be tolerated?"
Lin Daiyu whispered.
"There are many places tolerate. As far as I know and see, the average equality of men and women is not a false statement, but common sense."
Lin Dong said.
"You've really seen it?"
Daiyu asked again: "What should the woman there be like?"
“…”
Lin Dong sighed. The women in those worlds are better than the other. Now that he has fallen into this Red Mansion World, it is thanks to them that whenever they can implement the three obediences and four virtues of women in the Red Mansion World, Lin Dong is still a master now.
"I'm going to go to the capital. When I meet Xue Baochai, would you like to go?"
Lin Dong asked.
"See Sister Bao..."
Lin Daiyu put the west wing in her hand and said, "You are a world-wide empty bag and a famous lady. You are a maid and matchmaker... But, if you are with that passionate lady..."
After that, Daiyu covered her face and said embarrassedly.
The four seas are talking about Zhang Sheng, and the famous lady is talking about Cui Yingying. When Zhang Sheng saw the maid Hongniang, he thought to himself: If he was in the same tent as this passionate lady, how could he bear to fold the quilt and make the bed? He would definitely ask the lady, Mrs. Yang, if they were not free, then write a good example by themselves.
In Dream of the Red Chamber, Baoyu once used this to joke with Zijuan, which made Lin Daimei angry again.
Lin Dong called Daiyu to avoid meeting in private at that time. Xue Baochai was embarrassed when she saw Lin Dong alone.
After all, this lady from Xue Baochai is almost a representative of ancient female virtues. Even if she is naughty and playful, she will never be in front of outsiders.
Lin Dong is an outsider.
As for avoiding suspicion, it is also for people to see.
In the Lixiang Courtyard of Rongguo Mansion.
The Xue family is in the capital, and business has never stopped. Xue Pan spends money like water on weekdays and uses money to coax people to bed. His skills are first-rate. Baochai needs some help in the family's accounting.
Baochai is smart and capable, and is not old, but she can straighten out the account. However, there has been a hole in the account recently, and she has lost three thousand taels of silver. If she asks Xue Pan, what she gets is just a lie. Baochai presses it and checks it carefully and finds that the account is actually spent on Baoyu.
Thinking of the rumors I heard in the capital recently, Baochai was not shivering, as if she had discovered something terrible here.
On the evening of that day, Baochai had a fever attack. He took "Lengxiang Pills" under the pear tree and took it with twelve-minute Huangbo Decoction. The Huangbo was very bitter, and it was mixed with the sweetness of Lengxiang Pills, which made Baochai appreciate the sweet and bitter taste even more.
When I thought of Xue Pan and Baoyu, these two people belonged to cousins. Although there were many cousins in marriage, they were together, but in the boys’ affairs, the cousins were mixed together, which made Baochai disgusted.
"Miss Bao, Mr. Bao is back."
The maid said outside that this was what Baochai ordered in advance.
"good."
Baochai packed up, got up and walked outside, heading towards the place where Jia Baoyu lived at this time.
Since checking the accounts, Baochai wanted to talk to Baoyu several times, but Baoyu was not at home. Today, he was either at the prince's mansion or at other noble people's houses. Often when he went home, it was late at night. It was still early today. Baochai naturally wanted to talk to Baoyu to let him turn back to justice. Don't study this evil path, study more, and take the path of official career and economics.
It is a pity that the power is shut down, and I am pitiful of the talent of chanting the catkins. I hang my jade belt in the forest and buried my golden hairpin in the snow.
Shutdown De is talking about Xue Baochai.
Le Yangzi went out to study, but he came back in less than a year because he missed his wife. After his wife learned about this, she cut off the silk from the weaving machine with one knife, which meant that he gave up halfway. Xue Baochai also advised Jia Baoyu more often on weekdays, but Jia Baoyu kept stopping. Every time Xue Baochai advised, Jia Baoyu would put down her face and drive Xue Baochai away, saying that he could not accommodate his career and economics in his room.
"Master Bao Er, you are back!"
In Jia Baoyu's room, Xiren took Jia Baoyu over and quietly touched the tears at the corner of his eyes.
"Well, today we are talking about major events in the Duke's mansion. Because what I said hits the point, the Duke rewarded me with a thousand taels of silver and invited me to stay at his place for a few days another day..."
Jia Baoyu was covered in alcohol, and the powder on his face had been watered, and it had become a flowery face. Xiren held Baoyu and loosened his clothes, let him lie on the bed, and said, "Second Master, you have learned a lot. You might as well be at home tomorrow and read the articles of sages. So when you go out, you will have a higher opinion?"
Xiren is also Jia Baoyu's pillow. How could Jia Baoyu hide anything from her? It's just that she knows that she has never said it clearly.
"Tomorrow, the Jiedushi will come to Beijing, and I will accompany them to have wine..."
Jia Baoyu said vaguely, his eyes were dry and he fell asleep.
Since he started making money, Baoyu has been very busy.
