Baoyu watched with cold eyes as everyone gathered around Jia Lian, thinking that Jia Lian was just "wallowing in the quagmire of official career and economics", and thinking that only Daiyu had never said "bastard words" to persuade her to study and take the imperial examination.
”, so he walked up to Daiyu.
Carefully taking out the wagtail incense string given by King Beijing during the day, he held it in front of Daiyu and whispered:
"This is a gift from King Beijing. I am giving it to my sister. Only my sister is worthy of carrying it.
Don't pay attention to their common people. They only care about pursuing official career and attending to secular affairs all day long. It's disgusting."
Jia's mother has been out of shape these days and doesn't pay much attention to Bao and Dai. Daiyu is concentrating on her piano skills and doesn't come out to see people much.
I only came out today after listening to Jia Mu's instructions. I just saw that Jia Mu specially ordered Yuanyang to go to the gate to welcome Jia Lian back. Although Daiyu didn't know why, she had always been very smart. Seeing that her grandmother was acting abnormally, she already understood what Jia Lian was doing.
What you do must be closely related to the fate of the Jia family.
Later, I heard Jia Mu talk about Jia Lian riding a horse in the street to stop the funeral procession and splitting the coffin with a sword, and my heart couldn't help but move:
"The son of a good family with rhinoceros and jade swords, a young man with a white horse and a golden guard." Come to think of it, this is what he looked like at that time?
She was embarrassed to stare at Jia Lian, so she just sat with Sanchun, head lowered.
Seeing Baoyu holding a string of rosary beads in front of her eyes, Daiyu rolled her eyes at him and smiled softly:
"You rushed to accept the reward from King Beijing, didn't you just fawn over your official career and attend to secular affairs?
If that stinky man is not King Beijing, will you pay attention to him?"
Baoyu was so choked that he was speechless for a long time.
.
As soon as Jia Lian entered the house, Jia Mu gave up the precious jade and only talked with Jia Lian, which made Mrs. Wang feel very uncomfortable.
Although she didn't want her only biological son to always be dragged by Jia's mother and not allowed to get close to her, but when she saw Jia Lian's face now, Mrs. Xing, who was stupid, stupid and unborn, also benefited a lot, Mrs. Wang felt
The sour water couldn't stop rising up one after another.
Just as she was about to drag Baoyu to her side, Baoyu's evil spirit came to pester Daiyu again, making Mrs. Wang even more uncomfortable.
Originally Jia Mu loved liveliness, Baoyu slept with Jia Mu since she was a child, and her three children, Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun, also lived together in Jia Mu's yard.
Ever since Jia Lian brought Jia Min's daughter Lin Daiyu from Suzhou to Beijing and entered Jia's mansion, Jia's mother said that there were too many granddaughters and it would be inconvenient to crowd them all together. So only Baoyu and Daiyu were left to relieve their boredom, but
Jiang Ying, Tan, and Xi moved to the three small mansions behind Mrs. Wang's house, and only asked Li Wan to accompany them and take care of them.
So Baoyu and Daiyu advanced and retreated together, eating at the same table and sleeping on the same bed, regardless of the taboo of "men and women sitting on different seats at the age of seven".
Mrs. Wang is also a very smart person, and she immediately understood Jia Mu’s intention to deliberately match her.
Everyone knows that the old lady loves Jia Min, so naturally she also loves Daiyu.
Hum, if the grandmother cherishes her granddaughter's loneliness and wants to find a companion for her, wouldn't it be more appropriate to have three girls - Ying, Tan, and Xi? Why should she only be "better" with Baoyu?
, if so, we will be more harmonious”?
How does this happen?
Baoyu, Mrs. Wang’s only biological son, naturally should have the final say in her son’s marriage. Why should the old lady have a hand in it?
What's more, if Baoyu marries Daiyu in the future, what will his sister's daughter Baochai do?
Pian Baoyu has always been a simple-minded "idiot", and when he gets along with Daiyu, he will naturally fall in love with her. In the future, Jia Mu will try to "push the boat along" with her adult beauty, which will only make Baoyu regard Jia Mu as "the best in the world".
"A good person", where will he leave his biological mother, Mrs. Wang?
What's more, Daiyu, the daughter of a scholar, is an ice-smart person with an impeccable personality. How can she be as generous, elegant, smooth and forbearing as Baochai, who was born in a merchant's family?
Mrs. Wang's constant calculation in her heart was that even if Jia Mu had the intention, she might not live long enough to get engaged to Baoyu.
At this moment, she happened to catch a glimpse of her precious son, Baoyu, holding a rosary to Daiyu as if offering a treasure. However, Daiyu rolled her eyes at her and refused to answer the beads. Mrs. Wang felt very sad when she saw this, so she called Baoyu and said: "My son, you have received rewards from King Beijing during the day, but you haven't shown them to the old lady yet."
Baoyu had just wanted to keep the bracelet for Daiyu, but now Daiyu had to fight for it, so he lost his mind and just agreed, walked to Jiamu and said:
"Old ancestor, this is the meeting gift given by King Beijing to his grandson. I heard that it is the wagtail incense rosary given by the emperor the day before yesterday."
Mother Jia didn't know the meaning behind the word "wagtail". She just thought that Baoyu should not be left out in the cold, so she pulled Baoyu over, stroked his hair, and said with a smile:
"It's your honor to be favored by King Beijing, so I'd say you're lucky.
Just remember that since this is a gift from the emperor, it should be sent to the ancestral hall for worship and must not be worn to show off."
Because Daiyu didn't want this thing, Baoyu didn't care whether the bracelet should be worn or offered as an offering. He only said: "I will give it to my grandson when he gets back."
Mother Jia saw that Baoyu was well-behaved and Jia Lian was capable, and then she thought about seeing her granddaughter in the palace. She felt that her grandson had a lot to do, and her heart was so happy that she couldn't help but be filled with joy:
"Baoyu, among the sons and grandsons I have raised, you are the only one who looks like your grandfather. You have to make more progress. Look at your second brother Lian. He is already a third-rank official at a young age. If you can do the same, I will
A lifetime will be complete."
At this time, Sister Feng was not here, and Mrs. Xing was clumsy and tongue-tied, so Mrs. Wang opened her mouth and said:
"Baoyu is naturally not bad."
Jia's mother held Jia Lian with one hand and Baoyu with the other. She loved both of them and couldn't stop laughing.
Everyone was so happy to see Jia Mu, how could they not welcome her? Even though Sister Feng, who was the best at joking, was missing, there was still a lot of laughter in the room.
.
Everyone in this compartment was excited and excited, and it was reported from outside that Aunt Xue had arrived with Baochai.
Mother Jia recalled that when Yuanchun secretly asked someone from the palace to deliver the letter, she was only worried about the collapse of the sky, and did not know when Aunt Xue and Baochai, who came to play leaf cards, left.
When she heard that her mother and daughter were coming, Jia Mu smiled and said, "Hurry up and welcome them in."
Aunt Xue has always been full of joy, and she was even more joyful today. She said as soon as she entered the door:
"Congratulations to the old lady! Congratulations to the old lady!"
Jia Mu became even more happy and said with a smile:
"You came at just the right time, which is the icing on the cake."
After everyone finished the ceremony, Aunt Xue said a few words of congratulations, and then said:
"I'm here today to apologize to the old lady.
Pan'er was young and ignorant, and did not know the past events of the old Prince Yi Zhong. He only knew that the coffin board was rare, so he rashly recommended it to Uncle Zhen. Fortunately, Mr. Lian was able to turn the tide.
Sure enough, good people are rewarded. No, the emperor summoned him, promoted him, and granted him service. It is really a great thing."
Jia Mu waved her hand and said:
"Xue Pan is young, what do children know? They are all relatives. Those who don't know are not guilty, and those who don't are not guilty."
Jia Lian sneered in his heart, it's okay not to have relatives like these "pig teammates".
