Volume IV - Chapter 22 Overseas Communications
When Daiyu heard this, she bowed her head and was silent, and then sighed for a while: "The second brother knows what I want, but why did the second brother give it to someone else when he promised me?" ”
Baoyu knew that she couldn't let go of Baochai's affairs, and sighed for a long time: "It's just the life of my parents, sister---- you know, I thought it was you at the beginning"
"That's it," Daiyu shook her head and said, "Second brother, maybe we won't have a chance." ”
Baoyu sat down next to her and sighed: "No, sister, I don't believe in fate, if there is fate, it should be the two of us, not Baochai." Sister rest assured, I will never let my sister down in this life. ”
Daiyu nodded, busily diverted the topic and asked, "Sister Yun's matter, how are you prepared?" ”
"I'm preparing," Baoyu sighed, "You know, I've never been in charge of these things, so where can I get started?" My home has now been turned upside down by me. ”
Daiyu suddenly remembered something and asked, "Second brother, I shouldn't have asked, this is ----"
"What does my sister say clearly, are we still someone else?" Baoyu took her hand and smiled.
Daiyu was busy slowly withdrawing her hand, and said with a sneer: "I heard earlier that the family's expenses are not as good as before, and there are even things like stealing pawns, and even the old lady's things are stolen?" ”
Baoyu frowned, and said in a low voice: "I can't figure it out when I'm not at home, when Sister Feng was in charge of the house, it was too much trouble, printing money outside, harsh people and slaves at home, and everyone in the family complained." Whoever has money has passed out of her hand. You have to peel a skin. At first, I didn't understand why the family's money was declining, but later I learned that it turned out to be ......"
Speaking of which. Baoyu stopped abruptly, after all, it involved the ugly things of his mother, and spread it. It's really indecent.
"She makes money for her wife?" Daiyu saw that he didn't say anything, and she understood in her heart. sighed, "That's it, after all, it wasn't her own expense...::::::::."
"She uses a lot of it herself," Baoyu frowned, "However, she really has a set of housekeepers, such a large family, three or four hundred people up and down, she can actually take care of the top." If it weren't for his wife and the Zhen family, she wouldn't have been able to do this. ”
At the mention of the Zhen family, Daiyu smiled coldly. That Zhen Shiqian is not a good thing.
"What's wrong with my sister?" Baoyu asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that my father died because of him, and now ---- he lives freely, and I don't feel happy when I think about it." Daiyu sneered.
"Hmm...... By the way," Baoyu said, "There is one more thing, I'm afraid you don't know, Master Zhen has a younger brother, and he had a bad relationship in the early years. moved out to live, this second master Zhen, who only has one daughter, nicknamed Yinglian, is now also in our house, do you know who it is? ”
"You can't hide it from me, but Xiangling? I just looked at ---- girl who was born so decently and looked at her speech. There seems to be some origin. I definitely don't want a small family to have children. "Daiyu already knew the origin of Xiangling and mentioned Xiangling. Not only did she think of Aunt Xue, she frowned and asked, "How is Auntie?" ”
"It's just a matter of day," Baoyu sighed, "It's just the old lady's body that makes me really worried." ”
"What are you worried about?" Daiyu smiled, "It should be yours, it's yours after all, can it be short?" ”
"It's not that you're worried about this lady's temper, and you don't know, if the old lady is uncomfortable, how can she live this day?" Baoyu sighed, these days, the Wang family outside has been troublesome enough, but the trouble is ......
It's over, that's it
Daiyu was also gloomy when she saw him like this, thinking that when he and the real Lin Daiyu lived in the garden, how could he have bothered about these things? In his spare time, he was just chanting poems and paintings, watching flowers and swimming in the water, and even teasing with the little girls. ::-**::
"Sister" Baoyu suddenly took her hand and said, "Wait for the capital, shall we go to Jiangnan?" Find a garden, only take a few people to the house, and live our day, don't pay attention to these troubles? ”
Daiyu's "good" word, almost blurted out, yes, this is exactly the day she wants, looking for a garden, not necessarily what the Humble Administrator's Garden, the Lion Forest, don't need to be big, even if it is a pastoral retreat, smiling proud of the mountains and forests, playing in the mountains and rivers, how comfortable? With the breeze and the moon as the company, the mountains look up, if life can be like this, what do you want?
However, when will the matter of the capital be done? Some people are destined to be mediocre, such as Baoyu, since he is burdened with the mission of the family, where can he return to the countryside?
"I'll talk about it later," Daiyu said with a wry smile.
"My sister doesn't believe me?" Baoyu held her hand tightly and asked in a low voice.
"Where" Daiyu smiled awkwardly, not because she didn't believe it, but because she couldn't ......
"Have you thought about it, what should Sister Bao do?" Suddenly, Daiyu asked.
When Baoyu heard this, he was unhappy, but he was helpless, Baochai---- as long as he has his mother for a day, he can't take a break, but if he doesn't stop Baochai, how can he marry Daiyu, can't marry her, what else to talk about? Gangnam? Idyllic...... The breeze and the moon are all their own delusions.
"Second brother" Daiyu saw that he was stupid, and hurriedly pushed to the road, "What's wrong with you?" Could it be that you are thinking about Sister Bao? ”
"You...... You still say? Baoyu listened, stomped his feet and belched, "People are uncomfortable, you still joke?" What kind of golden and jade relationship, I don't even have jade"
Seeing that he was in a hurry, Daiyu hurriedly smiled and said, "That's it, count me out of words, don't be annoyed"
"I don't annoy my sister anymore, you just don't worry about me," Baoyu said, and sat down beside her again.
Daiyu said again: "You haven't answered me to the question just now. ”
"What?" Baoyu was stunned, he didn't understand what she was asking just now, since he saw her, his eyes were all her smiles, where did he care about anything else?
"Is it really difficult to have money at home?" Daiyu asked.
"It's still maintainable," Baoyu said, "If it's not enough land, I'll naturally borrow it from my sister."
"Bah" Daiyu took a sip and scolded, "Who wants to borrow you?" ”
Baoyu saw that she was full of anger and hatred, and she liked it in her heart, so she couldn't help but reach out and touch her face, Daiyu was busy dodging away, and said: "If you are dead, and you are doing it again, you have married someone who is close to you, and you don't know a courtesy, and you don't shy away from it?" ”
Baoyu was anxious and laughed again
said that the two were talking and laughing, and suddenly Zijuan hurriedly came in and replied: "Second master, the old lady called the legal person to find you, saying that there was an emergency." ”
"What's so urgent?" Daiyu asked puzzled.
Baoyu also frowned, reluctant to Daiyu, but still got up and said, "Sister, rest, I'll go back and have a look."
Daiyu nodded, got up and personally sent him out, then lazily turned back, Zijuan helped her and asked with a smile: "Girl, I looked at the second master's heart, but it is still in the girl?" ”
"So what?" Daiyu gently smacked her and said with a smile, "Little Hoof, I also know your thoughts." ”
"The girl is making fun of me again" Zijuan not only blushed when she heard this.
"Do you know what's going on?" Daiyu asked, "So anxious to find someone?" ”
"It seems that it is related to the third girl," Zijuan frowned, "If the girl wants to know, I will go and investigate?" ”
"Third sister?" Daiyu also frowned, didn't she become the county lord and went to the Haichao to make peace, why did something happen again?
Zijuan nodded, and Daiyu said: "In that case, you go to their mansion to ask, if there is something, I will not be too late in the past." ”
"It's okay" Zijuan agreed, called the snow goose to wait for Daiyu, but went to Jiafu himself.
Baoyu hurriedly went back, and as soon as she arrived at Jia's mother's main room, she heard Mrs. Wang ask hurriedly, "What's going on?" Baoyu was busy going in, only to see Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, You Shi, and Li Kun all there, Jia's mother was crooked on the kang, and she saw Jia Qiang, who followed Tanchun to the Hai Dynasty, with her clothes in tatters and her face swollen, like a beggar, kneeling outside the threshold
Baoyu sat down beside Jia's mother and asked, "Qiang'er, didn't you accompany your third sister to the Hai Dynasty, what's wrong?" You also made this virtuous? ”
"Second Uncle Hui" Jia Qiang's face was pale, and she knelt on the ground and replied, "Yes, our brigade is all on dry roads, and it is safe and sound all the way, and we rest in the pavilion at night." However, when it came to the border between our dynasty and the sea dynasty, the sea dynasty did not send someone to pick up the three girls, so they could only temporarily live in the pavilion post, but it was a distant town over there, and there were bandits everywhere on weekdays, and the pavilion was really dilapidated, and there was no one to wait, so Lord Leng sent someone to send a letter to the sea dynasty, intending to let them send someone to pick up the three girls.
However, the letter was sent out for more than ten days, and there was no news, so I had to stay for the time being, but that night, the sky was gloomy, and in the middle of the night I could only hear shouting, and I got up to see that there were bright torches everywhere, and a group of people mentioned that the knife was killed----"
Baoyu asked anxiously, "What happened?" ”
When Jia Mu heard this, she not only sat up.
"I was so frightened, I hid under the kang, I don't know how long it took, I heard no sound outside, so I dared to come out and take a look, second uncle, it's really terrifying......" Jia Qiang said this, her face was pale, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.
Wanqing guarantees stable updates this month, so what...... At the beginning of the month, if there is a pink monthly pass, one is supported, and the evening is thanked
