When the attacker followed Jia Zheng and his party into the hall of Yihong Courtyard, the guests had already dispersed.

Baoyu was restrained and polite, greeted at the door, and when he saw Jia Zheng, he knelt on the ground and bowed, fully expressing his respect for his father.

It's just that I don't know if he's acting or if he's sincere.

As soon as Jia Zheng saw Baoyu, the face of the bureaucrats, who had been happy all day, sank suddenly.

Jia Zheng waved his hand impatiently and said, "Get up, get up." ”

Baoyu heard his father's voice, slowly stood up, bowed to the side, did not dare to raise his head, let alone have any movements and manners, and the performance of the banquet just now was like two people.

Qingwen saw it in her eyes and sighed in her heart: It's really not a father and son who don't get together.

Jia Zheng said: "My son has been tempered in the mountains for more than a year, I don't know what I have gained?"

Baoyu said: "I don't dare to say that there is any great growth, but from a small point of view, I still have a new understanding......

Jia Zheng sneered and said, "Why don't you dare to make great progress?!" In my opinion, it is clear that you are lazy and gluttonous, and you have to get by, you think in your heart, it is nothing more than being able to wander outside for one more day, even if you have endured one more day, you will never think of taking the initiative to go home. ”

Baoyu saw that his father still held his original prejudice against him, and he became more and more passive in dealing with his father, looking forward to getting through the test as soon as possible, so Baoyu was even more submissive and couldn't say a whole sentence.

The more Baoyu didn't want to answer his father positively, the more he didn't seem frank enough, and Jia Zheng, the more he looked at Baoyu's performance, the more unpleasant he became.

The two of them almost froze in place. This made everyone at a loss, and they didn't dare to come out.

Finding something strange on the table, Jia Zheng unconsciously walked to the empty banquet and carefully looked at the messy cups and plates and petrified food on the table.

Jia Zheng said: "My son has lived in the mountains for a long time, why has even the demand for food begun to become so indiscriminate? What kind of things are these things that do not enter the flow and are not entered? Besides, how can the placement of this cup and plate make me see that it is somewhat similar to the Suzaku Street in the capital, the root of the imperial city, and the mouth of the southern market? Could it be that a few of you have made trouble with the princess, and it is not enough to go out for a year, and you are preparing to continue to make trouble?!"

Baoyu lowered her head and still bowed to her side, however, her face began to be a little unbearable, and she was afraid of being recognized.

Seeing this, Qingwen was a little sad about the father-son relationship, and in her heart, she was more dissatisfied with Lord Jia.

However, because she realized that her rank was too low, she was not even as good as the position of the big maid attacker, and there was no place for her to speak here, so she had to stand where she was and do it in a hurry.

Jia Zheng glanced at Mingyan and Qingwen at this moment, and said in a deep voice: "You two personal servants, why are you still there if you don't kneel down for me?

Qingwen saw that Jia Zheng had lit herself and Mingyan, and she was in her arms, she stepped forward one by one, grabbed a heavy bow, and said:

"My lord, there is no maid to speak here, but Qingwen also wants to tell you, what are the regulations of the capital you are talking about, this is clearly the reproduction of the scenery of the four seasons of the mountains. Today, a few people who practiced with the master Baoyu came here to commemorate the beautiful scenery of the mountain practice, you see, this plate of bamboo shoots stewed Tianjiao, that is the portrayal of the cliff flying eagle, you look here, a pot of thick porridge, that is the mud pond of the mountain after the rain of wind and thunder, sinking fish and falling geese. ”

Jia Zheng twisted his beard, carefully looked at Qingwen's explanation, nodded for a while, and said, "Well, this bonsai is very innovative." ”

After a while, he shook his head and said: "Such beautiful poetry with such a bad mountain climate, thanks to your chef, you can also put together it here according to your requirements, not beautiful, not beautiful." ”

Jia Zheng's look of interest somewhat eased the tense atmosphere just now. Baoyu and the maids, including Mingyan, who had been kneeling on the ground, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Smack-", Jia Zheng suddenly slammed the table, making everyone immediately feel creepy again.

"Just you gang of disciples, you don't learn all day long, play birds and tease eagles, and form gangs, you really want to bring disaster to the country and the people, and end the rhythm of my Southern Zhou. I'm mad!"

This time, Jia Zheng suddenly turned from a patient and interested state to a violent anger without a transition, and he really couldn't convince the young people of Yihong Courtyard.

One by one, they are already like frightened birds, bowing their heads and frowning, and they don't dare to come out.

Baoyu said: "The growth of a child's cultivation is all internalized, and it cannot be seen, so he cannot defend himself in front of his father. ”

Jia Zheng was angry enough and said: "You still talk back? Do you think that internalizing the theory can be a shield to escape me to test your progress? You can avoid the evaluation inside and outside the court, but you can't escape me. ”

Baoyu is also a little angry, his father is unreasonable, and now, his father treats himself as a disaster, and he is really his enemy.

Jia Zheng glanced at Mingyan and then at Qingwen, as if to say, you dereliction of duty minions.

Mingyan has seen Jia Zheng repair Baoyu many times, and he is no longer surprised, besides, Mingyan's long-term servile mentality has caused him to have no intention of arguing for his little master.

Qingwen is different, although Qingwen heard that Lord Jia looks down on her son Baoyu, although she has learned Jia Zheng's attitude towards her son more or less when she listened to the Liguan, but this time, Jia Zheng couldn't help but refuse to believe what Baoyu said, but instead labeled Baoyu as a cheater and trickster, believing that he had achieved nothing, which was intolerable for Qingwen, who has always loved to fight and hug.

So, Qingwen really stepped forward and did something unbelievable.

Qingwen stepped forward and took the initiative to take responsibility for Jia Zheng's deep salute, and then said with a straight face:

"After appreciating the beautiful scenery in the mountains, please also ask the adults to personally test the results of Baoyu's practice for more than a year. The little slave thought that this was exactly what the master Baoyu asked the adults to mention but didn't dare to mention. ”

Jia Zheng was greatly taken aback when he heard that Baoyu was really going to show his hand for himself, he never expected that his unsuccessful son would really dare to meet the challenge and show him some skills.

He squinted at Baoyu, who bowed his head and was silent, and said, "My son, it seems that your reluctant invitation is all for you, this maid." ”

Baoyu said, "Father, exactly, exactly. ”
