Baoyu came out of Jia Zheng's house, his head drooping, but he was emotionless.
It wasn't until he saw the fragrant rouge on Jin Chuan's lips that he immediately put aside the scolding from Mrs. Wang just now and stepped forward to grab him:
"Good sister, I have just been wronged again, so why don't you reward me with all the good rouge on your lips?"
Jin Chuanyin heard that Caiyun had been assigned to Lai Wanger's bastard son, who was going to get married next month. Caixia had also pointed out Jia Huan as the person in the house. As a result, the four people in Mrs. Wang's house who were over 16 years old
Among the first-class maids, I and my sister were the only ones who had not yet found the jade bracelet.
Jin Chuan has been worried about his future for the past few days. He longs to be Baoyu's concubine, but is also afraid of being told by Mrs. Wang that she will be given to a servant as his wife.
At this time, when he saw Baoyu coming to pester him, he deliberately said:
"There can't be any results, so I might as well throw it away as soon as possible. No one will eat the rouge on my mouth."
Baoyu was most accustomed to being low-key in front of girls. When he saw Jinchuan acting like this, he pulled her even harder and refused to let go. He twisted his body like a twisted candy, just pestering her to eat.
.
Jia Lian brought Angong Niuhuang Pills and Deer Antlers to see Jia Zheng.
Turning around the corridor, I saw precious jade and gold coins crooked beside the rocks, and coughed:
"Brother Bao, I have something to tell you here."
Baoyu disturbed Jia Lian's interest. Although he was reluctant, he still had to let Jin Chuan go and come over to meet Jia Lian.
Jia Lian asked him a few questions about Jia Zheng's situation, and then asked him again:
"Yesterday, Li Gui was tied up in the stable and beaten. Did you hear that?"
Baoyu shook his head and said:
"I haven't gone out yet today. I haven't seen Li Gui, and I haven't heard that he was beaten. I heard that Brother Lian is going to transfer him to be a comprador."
Jia Lian smiled and asked:
"It was an emergency yesterday and I didn't even have time to ask you. Now I'm here to make amends to you."
Baoyu doesn’t care at all:
"Li Gui is just my brother-in-law. He is very rigid in doing things. Not only is he not as good as Mingyan, but even if I follow him outside, he is not as agreeable as Zhou Rui and Wang Rong.
It's just right to transfer him away. It's better to transfer him away together with his wife, Grandma Li, so as not to bother me."
Just as these words reached the point where Jia Lian wanted to ask a question, Jia Lian smiled and asked:
"He is rigid in doing things? Why did I hear Lai Da say that it was Wang Rong and Li Gui's idea that Brother Bao didn't get off his horse when he came to Master's study yesterday?"
He deliberately confused it, just to hear what the person involved said about it.
Baoyu was completely careless. After hearing this, he waved his hands and said with a smile:
"They say Brother Lian is smart, but he was deceived, right?
What happened yesterday was Zhou Rui's idea. How could Li Gui have such courage?
But having said that, next time I’d better take the corner door and take a long detour, so as not to listen to their nagging and get earache.”
.
This is Jia Lian’s shrewdness.
He will never believe what one person says, not anyone else.
This matter, on the one hand, shows that Li Gui is reliable, on the other hand, it also shows that the group of Mrs. Wang's companions around Baoyu are teaching Baoyu many messy and unruly things behind his back.
The young masters of the Jia family claim to have received strict etiquette and moral education, but in fact, in order to win favor and flattery, the servants around them often use different methods to teach their young masters not to learn well.
It seems that the Jia family’s education plan must be implemented quickly.
.
Jia Lian entered the main room behind Rongxi Hall, where Doctor Wang was giving Jia Zheng acupuncture.
The "Five Plum Blossom Acupuncture" passed down from the Wang family is indeed effective. Although Jia Zheng cannot speak yet, he can already move his fingers and has feeling in his legs.
The prescription prescribed by Dr. Wang required the use of high-quality velvet antler. When he saw that Jia Lian had just sent velvet antler and Angong Niuhuang Pills, he nodded repeatedly, saying that these were all useful things. p>
Mrs. Wang's face was stern and she said coldly:
"If Aunt Xue hadn't sent me deer antler yesterday, I wouldn't have been able to afford such precious medicinal materials just by relying on your uncle's salary as a fifth-rank official."
Jia Lian understood that Mrs. Wang was resentful that she had robbed Jia Zheng of his estate.
But he didn't want to embarrass Mrs. Wang in front of Jia Zheng.
After all, Jia Zheng is still ill and has suffered an acute stroke. It would be bad to be angry and anxious again.
.
Jia Lian has read many time-travel novels. Many time-travelers insist that they are "not related by blood to the original people", so they can do whatever they want inhumanely, and they are also complacent, saying that this is called "decision to kill". p>
In fact, it's just because he is a bad person.
As much humanity as there was before time travel, there will only be so much after time travel.
Jia Lian thinks that his humanity is quite good, and he also feels that there is no need to be an inhumane person.
He has the blessings accumulated by his ancestors for more than ten lifetimes, so just enjoy them.
It’s not like you’re just afraid that you won’t survive tomorrow, so why are you so anxious to find something “good” through your bad virtues?
.
So Jia Lian said respectfully to Mrs. Wang:
"Auntie, what you said is heresy. Uncle's medical treatment is a big deal.
Whenever you need anything, just send someone to tell me and I will definitely get it for my uncle. If I am not here, the same goes for Sister Feng from the ward."
Although Jia Zheng is a mediocre person with no ability, he is by no means a bad person. Jia Lian sincerely hopes that he will get well soon.
Of course, it would be better if he could be energetic - then the heartless little round-faced Baoyu still needs his biological father's "big board set meal".
Mrs. Wang sneered:
"Why are you pretending to be a good person now? Who caused your uncle to become so ill? Isn't he doing this just to please you?"
Eh? How do you say this?
Jia Zheng made a mistake on his own. The emperor sent a foul-mouthed eunuch to scold him. Then he heard that he was going to hand it over to the ministry for discussion. He was so anxious that he had a stroke. How could he blame me?
?
This Mrs. Wang can do it. She is really a virtuous person like Wang Xifeng. She just put the shit basin on Jia Lian's head.
Isn’t this another person who mistook Jia Lian’s “good temper” for being “easy to bully”?
What are you thinking about?
.
Jia Lian's tone was gentle, but the content of his words was no longer polite:
"My nephew doesn't dare to take what my aunt said. It's better to think of ways to cure my uncle's illness.
What my nephew is most worried about is that if it is rumored that his uncle got the disease because he listened to the imperial edict, then he will be in big trouble."
This polite remark was half a reminder and half a threat.
Mrs. Wang is also from a serious official background, so she naturally understands the soft yet hard meaning in Jia Lian's words.
But firstly, she was very unwilling to lose her second wife's estate, secondly, she was worried about Baoyu's future, and thirdly, the Zhou Rui family said a lot of bad things about Jia Lian in her ears, so when Mrs. Wang saw Jia Lian, she became evil for no reason.
Fire rushed to my forehead.
"By transferring Baoyu's Chang Sui to replace Qian Hua, you are now good at making decisions on this matter?"
