Jia Baoyu and Zhu Shura were whispering to themselves, but Li Qiao'er suddenly came in with Lin Hongniang and two maids.

Zhu Shura hurriedly came out of Jia Baoyu's arms, blushing and wanting to say goodbye to Li Qiao'er.

Li Qiao'er said with a smile: "It seems that there is really a intention to plant flowers that do not bloom, and unintentionally to plant willows in rows, and all the worries of the mourning family are superfluous." Seeing the two of you like this, the mourning family is relieved, and all the hard work has not been in vain. ”

Zhu Shura bowed to Li Qiao'er a few times and said: "The master's eyes are like torches, what he said is not the same, Shura thanks the master!"

Li Qiao'er looked at Jia Baoyu and said: "Jia Baoyu, Zhu Shura is my righteous daughter, although you and she haven't worshiped heaven and earth, but last night's incident, the mourning family also knows." You are like this, she is your person now, life and death follow you, there will never be two hearts, shouldn't you still worship the mourning family?"

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he knelt on the ground with Zhu Shura, bowed to Li Qiao'er a few times, and said, "Jia Baoyu, thank the Queen Mother for her success!"

Li Qiao'er laughed and said, "Queen Mother? That's a long way off." You should call me my righteous mother now. ”

Jia Baoyu glanced at Zhu Shura, and said to Li Qiao'er: "Jia Baoyu thanks his stepmother for her success!"

Li Qiao'er laughed and said, "It seems that Shura told you everything that should be said, so I'll get straight to the point." Last night, you and Shura became the gift of Zhou Gong, although there was no matchmaker's words, and I did not visit the church to drink wine, but I raised Shura for 18 years, and now she is in her youth, and she gave you her innocence, I have two words to explain to you, you must keep it in mind. ”

Jia Baoyu said: "Please ask my stepmother to command!"

Li Qiao'er said: "The first thing I want you to write a letter quickly, tell your sister Jia Tanchun truthfully about the fact that you have married my righteous daughter Zhu Shura, and make it clear that you are already the deputy commander of my 'concubine camp'!"

Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "This thing is easy to do, I made an appointment with my third sister and met in Nan'an Prefecture a month later." Now that the days are counted, it's almost over. If my stepmother allows, I want to take Shura with me to Nan'anju. If your stepmother is willing to go along, it's best if you have anything to say to her in person. As for the deputy commander of this 'sister-in-law camp', I'm afraid that I won't be able to restrain the chicken......"

When Li Qiao'er heard this, her face changed color.

Zhu Shura hurriedly glanced at Jia Baoyu, and said: "The master is only kind to me for nurturing and rebuilding, how can I leave the master half a step away from the master at this eventful time." ”

Jia Baoyu hurriedly said: "That's what Shura said, then I'll just write it." It's just that how can this letter be sent to Nan'anzhou? I'm afraid that there will be a reliable person to go there, and besides, I'm afraid it will take ten days and half a month to go back and forth. ”

Li Qiao'er sneered: "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own arrangements." As for the second sentence, it is to ask you to treat Zhu Shura well no matter what happens in the future, and not to live up to her affection. If you can do that, I will be blind even if I will die in the future. ”

Zhu Shura burst into tears early and choked up: "The master's great kindness to Shura, Shura's broken bones are difficult to repay......"

Before Zhu Shura finished speaking, Li Qiao'er helped the two of them up and said, "Don't say anything about the mourning family." When things take a turn for the better, the mourning family promises you that they will definitely hold a lively wedding for the two of you. It's just that the situation is urgent at this time, so let's keep everything simple. From this day on, this 'Forgotten Worry Pavilion' will be the residence of the two of you, and no one will disturb you without my order. All the food and drink will be sent by their own subordinates. The two of you can rest assured that you live here, you can chant poems and enjoy the snow and dance swords, one article and one martial arts, but you are also a fairy couple. I hope you two will not live up to the good intentions and good times of the mourning family. ”

Jia Baoyu and Zhu Shura kowtowed again, but Li Qiao'er turned around.

Before Lin Hongniang left, she whispered to Zhu Shura: "Hurry up, I will leave at noon." ”

Zhu Shura just didn't hear it, got up and helped Jia Baoyu back to the house.

Lin Hongniang couldn't help but sneer, and also went with Li Qiao'er without mentioning it.

Jia Baoyu and Zhu Shura returned to the back room, and Zhu Shura took a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from the bookshelf and said, "Remember what I said to you! ”

Jia Baoyu took the pen and sighed: "I can't hide it, I came to Dongpingzhou with Lin Xiaoxiao and Mo Yuanshan this time, just to see her." But now that she has seen it, Xiaoxiao and Brother Yuanshan are missing, and I don't know what happened to them. ”

Zhu Shura whispered: "Don't worry, I heard, that Mo Yuanshan is very good, although he has won the way of old money, but the master does not dare at the moment, and he is not willing to attack them." Especially Na Lin Xiaoxiao, maybe he can stand on our side. ”

Jia Baoyu said: "Who is the old money?"

Zhu Shura said: "Don't ask so much, I can only tell you that so far, they are all fine. If you don't follow the master's wishes, she is in a hurry, and it is difficult to say what will happen to the two of them next. The owner didn't do anything to them, in fact, a big reason is because of you. ”

"Because of me?" Jia Baoyu said with some consternation.

Zhu Shura sneered: "The story between you and Na Lin Xiaoxiao is not a secret, we already knew. If something happens to the two of them, it won't push you to the opposite side of us! It's just that if you invite the two of them here at that time, it would be really inconvenient, so the master sent the two of them to a secret place of extreme cold. ”

"Extremely cold place?" Jia Baoyu's tone was very worried.

Zhu Shura said: "It is an extremely cold place! If you hesitate a little longer, they will suffer more because of your hesitation. I don't know how long that carriage will hold them up. ”

Jia Baoyu sighed, waved the letter with a pen, looked at Zhu Shura and said: "I have already written the letter, I know my stepmother's plan, I want to form an alliance with Nan'an Prefecture through me, but the third sister is now the local head of Nan'an Prefecture, she reads the letter, what she will do, I don't know." As for me and you, I hope we will get out of here when we have the chance, and become a couple of charlatans, and never have to worry about all this power struggle and deceit. ”

Zhu Shura said: "Don't worry, what I promised you will definitely be done." We'll have that day. ”

Zhu Shura read the letter written by Jia Baoyu, and the general meaning was consistent with what Li Qiao'er said, so he hurriedly took the letter and said: "You can drink in the house for the time being to relieve your boredom, and I will come when I go." ”

Zhu Shura just turned around with the letter, but Jia Baoyu grabbed Zhu Shura's hand and said, "Shura, I want to see how you look without a mask!"

Zhu Shura smiled and said, "Let's come to Japan for a long time, and there will be times when you are bored of watching it." ”

Zhu Shura hurriedly went, leaving Jia Baoyu alone in the room, looking at the big red quilt and mandarin duck pillow on the big bed, and the dreamlike past of last night resurfaced in front of him.

Outside the window, the north wind howled and the snow was endless.

Jia Baoyu was in a trance for a while, and said to himself: "Is all this true, or is it just a dream!"
