Volume 2 - Chapter 48 Reading at Night with Red Sleeves (2)

When all the girls here were waiting for Xiaowen, they were all young and delicate girls, Chunyan looked at Baoyu, just smiled, Baoyu smiled: "What do you want to do?" ”

"Can I try it?" Chunyan pointed to the pen and paper on the table.

"Cheng" Baoyu smiled, "What can't you try?" In the future, when I have time, I will teach you how to compose poetry. ”

"We don't dare to think about poetry," Si'er said with a smile, "It's good to know a few words" As I said before, these Si'er were originally the girls in Baoyu's room, and then Mrs. Wang disliked her and Baoyu said a few jokes about herself, so she was thrown out.

Sister Feng also knows that Baoyu can't be offended, but there is an old lady to protect her. secretly asked Mrs. Wang's meaning, Mrs. Wang is worried about Baochai's affairs, where can I take care of this? casually agreed, so Si'er returned to Baoyu's side again to wait.

"I can hear my mother say that this poem is not a good thing, and it is the easiest to attract evil spirits, and it is very troublesome." Si'er said with a smile.

"Where did your mother hear about it?" Baoyu asked with a smile.

"It is said that it was said by a gentleman on the street, and my mother heard it, so she taught my younger brother like this." Si'er said with a smile, Si'er was originally a slave in Jiafu, and the old lady in the family was also somewhat powerful in Jiafu, although she was not a first-class housekeeper, but she had a little money, Si'er had only one younger brother in the family, and the rest were girls, so this boy was naturally very valued. Si'erdi's mother naturally entrusted the housekeeper of Jiafu and sent the child to a small private school nearby for two years, but Ling'er knew a few words. As for the likes of fame, it is unthinkable.

"That's kind of interesting, sir." Baoyu laughed.

"Sister Chunyan, what are you writing here?" Si'er looked at Chunyan's paper, and immediately covered his mouth and laughed, but his voice was crisp.

Baoyu saw it, and hurriedly looked at the paper. == Chunyan wants to learn Baoyu's words to write stroke by stroke, but for a girl who has never held a pen, lifting a pen is like holding a big broom. That word...... It's even more outrageously written, although it can barely be recognized. But at first glance, it's still a cloud of black ink.

Baoyu couldn't help but smile when she looked at it, Chunyan's face was flushed, and she was so anxious that she stomped her feet.

While everyone was laughing, Xiaowen ran in. looked at Baoyu Sisi and said with a sigh: "Second master...... I didn't find that Peony Pavilion. ”

"I know that your little hoof is useless, and I can't find it if I write it to you." Si'er teased.

Xiaowen saw that Baoyu seemed to be very happy, not like angry, so she immediately took a sip and scolded: "I don't reuse? Otherwise, you go and find it. ”

"Hmm. I'll go," Si'er agreed. Turned around to go out and thought about it. Turning around suddenly, he took the piece of paper that Baoyu had written, and ran out, "I took this and compared, so I don't have to worry about finding it." ”

Chunyan and Xiaowen couldn't help but clap their hands and bend over and laugh: "In the end, this hoof is smart." ”

Baoyu watched Si'er go out, and hurriedly opened the curtain and smiled: "On the third row of shelves." ”

"Second master, don't tell her, let her find it herself." Chunyan was teased by Si'er just now, and at this time she still remembered it and was busy.

"Come on, if you can't find it again, it's going to be dawn," Baoyu said with a smile.

However, everyone sat down and waited for a while, but Si'er still didn't come, Chunyan was not at ease, frowned and said, "What's wrong with this little hoof?" If you can't find it, you should come over and say it...... Second master, why don't I go over and have a look? ”

"Let's go together" Baoyu also felt that things seemed a little strange, it stands to reason that the room is next door to the east wing, just a few steps, and they all have wives on the night, there will be absolutely no problem, why did Si'er go for so long?

Chunyan was busy lighting up a glass hydrangea lamp inside, walking in front, Baoyu put on a dress, helped Xiaowen, and walked outside. \\\\\\

As soon as I walked to the door of the room, I saw that Bi Jin and Musk Yue were both there, and when they saw Baoyu, they were busy saying hello.

Baoyu frowned and said, "What are you two doing here?" ”

"Back to the second master, the second grandmother is here," Bi Jin said busily.

"Oh?" Baoyu said, while the autumn pattern inside has been opened, Baoyu went in to see, couldn't help but be angry---- it turned out that the room is now brightly lit, Baochai is sitting facing south, attacking, Qiuwen, and Ying'er are all waiting on the side, and Si'er went to kneel on the ground, bowing his head and crying.

Seeing Baoyu come in, Baochai stood up and asked, "The second master is so late, what are you doing here?" ”

"This is my room, what am I doing here, do I need to report to you?" As he spoke, he looked at Si'er, and saw that Si'er's originally tender and fair face was now all purple, and at first glance, he was beaten to the ground, and now he was kneeling on the ground silently tearing.

"My girl is not good, if you want to beat or scold, it won't be your turn" Baoyu forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and said coldly, "Si'er got up and said----Who beat you?" ”

When Si'er heard this, she was about to stand up, but Baochai suddenly shouted, "She dare? The little hoof is not human, so it seduces the master to learn badly, can't I still teach a lesson? ”

Si'er was asked by Baochai, and he was so frightened that he was soft, where did he dare to get up? Baoyu said lightly: "Chunyan, help Si'er up" Chunyan is a relatively big girl in Baoyu's room, and she is also more sensible.

"Second master......" Suddenly, Chunyan exclaimed in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Baoyu asked.

"Look" turned out that when Chunyan was helping Si'er up, where the tentacles were, Si'er instinctively shrunk, and the room was brightly lit, only to see that Si'er's hands actually had blood stains, this girl was frightened on the spot, and at a glance, the back of Si'er's hands and palms were all scars pierced by something hard, and she suddenly became anxious.

Baoyu walked in front of Si'er, stretched out her hand to support her hands and looked at it, only to see that her two hands were pierced by hairpins, and she was drenched in blood, and she couldn't help but be furious, turned around abruptly, looked at Baochai and said, "If you don't give me an explanation today, you will go back to me tomorrow." ”

Baochai forced composure: "What do you want me to explain, it's just a girl." Mrs. specially ordered today, you are now married, you are an adult, naturally you are not allowed to look at these miscellaneous gods, the lord will come back soon, now this girl is born a little delicate, just in your room to do consumption, I just on behalf of Mrs. to punish her, if you are not satisfied, what is Ming'er is not, I will take it myself. ”

"You don't have to keep holding your wife to press me, now your wife is still difficult to protect herself, and she won't protect you, do you think that if your wife uses a few taels of silver from your family, she will let you handle it and spend it in my room?" Baoyu suddenly grabbed one of Baochai's hands and pulled her over hard, and pointed at her nose with the other hand and said coldly, "You dare to touch my girl today, I will go to the prison tomorrow to move your eldest brother, if you dare to stab my girl's hand with a hairpin, I will dare to use a clamp stick to break your Xue Pan's feet, I don't believe you try." ”

When Baochai heard this, he was suddenly like a thunderbolt and an electric shock, and he could not speak for a while, Mrs. Wang did borrow their family's silver, and the Xue family was fine, but now that Xue Pan is making trouble, the family's little family property has long been lost, and Aunt Xue naturally has to ask Mrs. Wang for it.

But where does Mrs. Wang have the money to repay them, it is naturally delayed again and again, and Xue Pan's affairs have spent a lot of silver in the yamen, and the upper and lower masks have been completed, but the yamen is still sentenced to death, and she refuses to let go of anything, so Aunt Xue is puzzled that Jiafu is unwilling to do things.

A small county government, where does it have such a great ability to confront the hereditary Jiafu? Isn't it often said that the official level crushes people to death, not to mention that it is not so big and one level or two, why is it useless? Moreover, the deceased was just an ordinary widow's family, powerless and powerless, and it should not be so difficult.

When he was in his hometown, it was not a big deal to kill a squire's father-in-law, and Xue Pan didn't even go to the yamen once, and the matter was already done. So hard to do now?

Baochai wondered that there was another mystery in this, and she could also see that her brother had no hope, and the sister-in-law at home was even more unsuccessful, and her mother was old and helpless. And as she gets older, her original identity as a maid to be selected has been removed, and her family has declined, so she naturally has to think about her life's events.

Now she is no longer an official eunuch lady, her status has been greatly reduced by one level, and her brother Xue Pan is still in prison, once she is sentenced to execution, she is just a sister who has committed a royal legal person, although there are many princes and grandsons in Kyoto, but is there less Miss Everyone, there are good ones, and it is her turn? Come to think of it, Baoyu is undoubtedly the best candidate.

Not to mention his character, plus his mood is also easy to handle, and Mrs. Wang is her own aunt, plus she can't afford to pay back the money she owes the Xue family, so she doesn't worry about being angry with her mother-in-law when she marries.

But---- these are top secret things, how did Baoyu know about it? Could it be that Mrs. Wang actually told him this? If this is the case, does it mean that Mrs. Wang is no longer on her side?

Moreover, Baoyu's naked threat ---- him a prince of Rongguo, and it is not easy to make it difficult for the prisoners to be executed in the cells. My brother is not angry, but my brother has never treated her badly? Moreover, if my mother knew that my brother was suffering in prison, wouldn't she be in a hurry to die?

Thinking of this, Baochai was very anxious and wanted to say a few soft words to intercede for her brother, but in front of many girls, she couldn't pull this face down......

"Who's doing it?" Baoyu pushed Baochai away heavily, pushed Baochai stumbling, and asked.
