Aunt Zhao was full of suspicion, and only stared at Jia Huan.

Jia Huan was already a thief, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable, and said with a bowed head: "Mother, what do you think I do?" ”

"Conscienceless obscene seed, you crawl out of my intestines, what do you want I don't know? Not to mention, Baoyu is so good, why did she fall into the pool? ”

"It's-"

Seeing that Jia Huan's face was difficult, Aunt Zhao sent the two maids out. Jia Huan whispered in his ear and told the past two days.

When Jia Huan kicked Baoyu into the pool, Aunt Zhao raised her eyebrows: "Okay, it's not a small courage!" ”

Jia Huan sneered: "It's not a mother's teaching? ”

Aunt Zhao didn't bother with Jia Huan, but said, "What about later?" Who rescued Baoyu? ”

Jia Huan scratched his head and said, "It's useless to save it, the pool is too shallow, and it takes me to my thighs when I get up." ”

"Baoyu didn't see her, did you?"

"No, definitely not."

Aunt Zhao pondered for a while, and then asked, "The matter of the complaint was pondered by yourself?" ”

Jia Huan's eyes rolled wildly, and he said, "Still use people to teach? Baoyu had a bad reputation, so naturally no one paid attention to him falling into the water, and he was never hurt left and right. ”

Aunt Zhao gritted her teeth and pinched Jia Huan's ear: "You still dare to lie?" Who taught it exactly? ”

"It hurts, it hurts, it's light...... Mother, how do you make a trick with your sister? Hiss, I say, I say. When Aunt Zhao let go, Jia Huan slandered: "I don't know how to change my ear, this left ear was only twisted by my sister at noon." After a pause, he said honestly: "It was taught by the fourth brother of Jian." ”

"How kind would he be?" Aunt Zhao became more and more suspicious.

The so-called stupid person is suspicious, and she is like this.

Jia Huan pondered: "I see that the third sister and the fourth brother are quite close, maybe it is because of the third sister?" ”

Aunt Zhao scoffed: "If he looks at Tanchun, how can he not think of us in any good things?" Then he said: "That's it, I'll deliver the words to the master first, and I can't get involved with you." ”

Jia Huan suddenly smiled, and said, "Mother blows the pillow wind, it will be useful for a while." ”

"Hmm...... Well? Aunt Zhao raised her eyebrows, and reached out to grab Jia Huan's ear: "Obscene embryo, what pillow wind?" Suddenly: "Could it be that this was also taught to you by the surname Li?" ”

Jia Huan lied without blinking, and hurriedly bowed his head: "Yes, it was taught by the fourth brother of Jian!" ”

Aunt Zhao scolded the street for a long time, and then let go of Jia Huan. Jia Huan thought he had a plan, he was a naughty child, and as soon as he carved his heart, he immediately ran out crazy and played naughty.

It was also a coincidence, on this day, the old man Jia Zheng had nothing to do, and after a while in Mengpo Zhai, he returned to Aunt Zhao's courtyard. Aunt Zhao's side may be stupid, but in the matter of serving Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang is afraid that it will be difficult to get out of reach. Otherwise, he would not have given birth to a son and a daughter safely and smoothly, but he has survived until now.

Aunt Zhao was gentle and coaxed Jia Zheng for a long time, and when she was in a daze, she began to complain: "Master, I heard Huan'er say that Baoyu has not looked good these two days. ”

"Hmm." Jia Zheng responded casually, and he didn't care about it. He didn't care about Baoyu's virtue in the inner house.

Aunt Zhao gently kneaded Jia Zheng's shoulder and said, "I heard that Baoyu saw that Brother Jian'er's concubine was born well, so she looked for it. The maid didn't let him in, so he blocked the door, and he had to talk to the concubine, saying that he shouldn't be a concubine for Brother Jian'er, and if he wanted to do it, he would be a concubine. Tsk, sir, tell me, where is there such a thing? I heard that Brother Jian is angry this time! ”

"Huh?" Jia Zheng listened to the small words, and suddenly his eyes widened angrily: "Bastard, Baoyu is becoming more and more unsuccessful!" ”

Aunt Zhao said again: "It is estimated that Brother Jian also looked at the face of the master, so he didn't have a seizure." Later, Baoyu couldn't think about it, and fell into the pool, making a lot of noise, mixing up Brother Jian'er's son. Coincidentally, the second son of the Yan family was also in front of him...... Master, tell me, this is not a lesson, can it be done? ”

Jia Zheng is old-fashioned and loves face the most. If it's just Li Weijian, it's still his own relative, and that's it. Hearing that Yan Fengzhen was also in front of him, he was immediately furious, got up and walked out.

"Huh? Master? ”

"I'm going to find that bastard and settle accounts!"

……………………………………………………

In Rongqing Hall, Yingying and Yanyan are all there, and Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and Wang Xifeng are also there.

Jia Mu sat on the soft floor, and after hearing Li Kun briefly talk about the past two days, she was suddenly frightened, and she looked carefully at Baoyu and was fine, so she was slightly relieved. Hurriedly couldn't help beckoning Baoyu over: "Good girl, how did you fall into the water?" ”

Li Kun said: "Old lady, Brother Jian has carefully searched the garden, and there is no trace of the villain. Xu Yes...... Brother Xu Shibao was in a trance for a while, and he thought that someone had kicked him, and there were. ”

Jia Mu was suspicious, and Baoyu couldn't remember whether anyone had kicked him at this time. Mrs. Wang, who sat down at the bottom, was full of worry, and she refused to believe it at all.

Since Baoyu said that someone kicked him, someone must have kicked him! Didn't find the bad guys? Maybe it's a gangster who is mixed in with the crowd.

Mrs. Wang thought about it, and after a while, she looked for the attacker and asked him clearly. For more than ten years, Mrs. Wang has never been willing to move a finger of Baoyu, where can she bear to be calculated by others Baoyu?

Thanks to the shallow pool, if it touches a deep pool, Baoyu will not be able to swim...... Didn't she want the white-haired man to send the black-haired man?

Because she complained about Li Kun and Li Weijian in her heart, there were not many people in the garden to take care of them, which shows that these two people are not doing things properly.

Mrs. Xing peeked at Baoyu, and secretly felt sorry in her heart. If Baoyu goes, Mrs. Wang will definitely not survive. When the time comes, won't the errand of the head of the house fall on her?

That's the frugal brother too, a good garden, what do you do with such a shallow pool?

The eldest lord Jia Yu has been raising these days, and his body is gradually refreshing, although half of his face is wooden, he can act without hindrance, and he has been messing with the concubines again in the past few days. Although Jia Yu didn't say anything, he still owed Li Weijian 8,000 taels of silver.

How to repay this silver, neither husband nor wife mentioned it. The eldest lord's loss has fallen, and now the East Cross Courtyard has cut down on food and clothing, the eldest lord has not bought fan noodles for a long time, and Mrs. Xing has not bought noodles for a long time. How to repay this money, the only way to procrastinate is to wait for the autumn and discuss the marriage with Brother Jian'er.

Eight thousand taels of silver are counted as a bride price, and this is settled. If not, relying solely on the income of the East Cross Hospital, it is impossible to say what years and months will be able to pay it back.

Everyone in the Rongqing Hall had different expressions, cherishing spring, welcoming spring, and chattering in Xiangyun, and some of them didn't say better. Mother Jia naturally trusts Li Kun in her heart, and compared with Mrs. Wang, Mother Jia especially appreciates Li Kun, the granddaughter-in-law.

Besides, she owed a lot of money to that frugal brother before, and thought that Baoyu would be fine, so the old lady was unwilling to pursue it further.

Because he opened his mouth, he said: "Fortunately, people are fine, good girl, you have to be careful next time." ”

Baoyu smiled and bowed his head. On the way back, Daiyu finally took care of him, although there was no mouth, but it was better than before. Baoyu was full of thoughts about finding Sister Lin for a while, and exposed the previous grievances, and the two reconciled as before.

Although I caught a glimpse of Sister Lin and Fourth Brother Jian on the bridge that day, they looked like a pair of beautiful people...... But now that she thinks about it, Baoyu only feels that she is too careful.

Jia Mu said to Li Kun and the others again: "This carriage is tired, and I am tired when I think about it, Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law, you lead Brother Lan to go back and rest quickly." The others are scattered, and you don't have to keep my rules today. ”

Li Kun wanted to sue, but at this time, Mrs. Wang was there, and Li Kun was speechless.

A group of warblers and warblers were about to disperse, when suddenly the mandarin ducks rushed in and said in a panic: "Old lady, the old man is here, look at the anger!" ”

"Huh?" Mrs. Wang was taken aback.

Last time, he accidentally hit Baoyu in the back of the head, causing Baoyu to raise him for a few days, and now he is getting better, could it be that Jia Zheng has come to look for Baoyu's bad luck again?

Mrs. Wang hurriedly looked at Baoyu, and saw that Baoyu's expression was first dazed, and then trembling like chaff.

Mrs. Wang said eagerly: "My son, why have you annoyed the master again? ”

"I, I ......"

Jia Mu said with a straight face: "Let him come, I want to see if he wants to force me to go back to Jinling!" ”

As he spoke, Jia Zheng walked in angrily, glanced at Baoyu first, and raised his hand to point: "Evil obstacles, look at the good things you have done!" ”

Mother Jia hurriedly hugged Baoyu: "What is the master doing to scare Baoyu?" ”

"Mother!" Jia Zheng saw the ceremony and said: "This beast instigated and molested Brother Jian'er's concubine in Brother Jian'er's garden, and lost all the face of our family!" ”

"Huh?"

Jia Mu exclaimed, seeing Baoyu cowering in her arms, she said in her heart that this matter was true. She didn't want to ask Jia Zheng, so she hurriedly looked at Li Kun: "Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law, is there such a thing?" ”

Li Kun sighed and said, "Old lady, Brother Bao is indeed extremely rude this time!" ”

Li Kun was already angry in his heart, but he spoke impartially, and only told all kinds of things about the past. When Baoyu chased him to the front of the house, he had to talk to Fu Qiufang, and he had to avoid Li Weijian...... Mo said that it was Mother Jia, and even Mrs. Wang didn't know how to speak.

Mrs. Xing observed her words, and when she saw that the old lady and Mrs. Wang did not speak, she smiled and said, "Hey, Baoyu has done something wrong this time." You just like the concubine of your thrifty brother, and it's not easy to hook up in front of others. How does this make outsiders see our family? ”

Jia Zheng became more and more annoyed, and said: "This evil obstacle is becoming more and more ignorant, mother, if we don't care about it anymore, our family's reputation will be ruined in the hands of this evil obstacle!" ”

Jia Mu said: "If you want to discipline, who is in the way?" There is only one thing, you are not allowed to fight Baoyu again! ”

Jia Zheng was extremely annoyed and was not allowed to fight? His father beat him up since he was a child, and Jia Zheng naturally followed suit and believed in filial piety under the stick. How to control if you don't fight?

Mrs. Wang didn't care about the matter of falling into the water, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Master, maybe it's not that serious. Baoyu, tell me what's going on! ”

"I, I-" Baoyu was already speechless, and when he saw Jia Zheng again, he was so frightened that he lost half of his three souls and seven spirits, where could he make it clear for a while? I was stunned for a long time, and I didn't say a word.

When Jia Zheng saw this, he thought that what Aunt Zhao said was true, so he was so angry that he raised his feet and was about to step forward.

"What are you going to do?"

"Mother!"

Jia Mu hugged Baoyu and said: "Come on, I'm afraid the lord won't be able to tolerate me and Baoyu, I'll take Baoyu back to Jinling tomorrow, so as not to hinder the master's eyes!" ”

At this point, Jia Zheng hurriedly pleaded guilty. Because of the presence of all the Yingying and Yanyan at this time, Jia's mother didn't want Jia Zheng to lose face, so she only said, 'I'm tired today, I'll talk about it tomorrow', and then drove everyone away, leaving Baoyu alone to ask.

Mrs. Xing felt a pity in her heart, first, it was a pity that Baoyu did not die; Second, it is a pity that Jia Yu was not present, otherwise, the couple would definitely take the opportunity to persuade Mrs. Wang to teach Baoyu wholeheartedly. In this way, wouldn't the errand of the head of the house be at your fingertips?

……………………………………………………

Garden of Fools.

At this time, the night was already dark, Yan Fengzhen yawned, and carefully observed by candlelight. Seeing Li Weijian install the last valve, a steam engine completely different from Newcomen appeared in front of him.

The second son stepped forward and took a look, and the bell echoed. said: "It's weird, it looks completely different from Newcomen." ”

Li Weijian wiped the oil stains on his hands and said: "There must be some progress, otherwise what am I making it for?" ”

This steam engine made of fine copper, the boiler is connected to the cylinder, and the boiler is enclosed, not like the external fire source of Newcomen. Then there were slide valves, pistons, connecting rods, cranks, flywheels, eccentric wheels, and strange looks.

Yan Fengzhen loves machinery the most, and this strange appearance falls in his eyes, and he is full of beauty.

The second son couldn't wait to say, "Let's burn the fire?" ”

Li Weijian shook his head, then remembered something, and shook his head again: "It's late tonight, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

"If you light more candles, why wait until tomorrow?"

Li Weijian spread his hands and said, "I forgot to buy coal." ”

"It's the same with firewood."

Li Weijian shook his head and said: "The calorific value is a lot different, and the stove is also small, let's wait for Ming'er to buy white coal." ”

Yan Fengzhen gritted his teeth and frowned, it was finally assembled, and he couldn't try it until Ming'er? Grandmother! He Yan Ergongzi is not a patient person, where can he wait?

Yan Fengzhen pushed his glasses and pointed at Li Weijian: "White coal, right?" Wait! ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out, no matter how Li Weijian screamed, he didn't stop. In a blink of an eye, he arrived at the gate of the garden, looked for a small servant, and rode down the mountain.

Li Weijian secretly thought to himself, Yan Fengzhen wouldn't go to Xishan Coal Mine, right? This is too urgent!

After half an hour, Yan Fengzhen returned with a horse, and there was a plate car pulling coal behind him.

Li Weijian wondered: "Brother Jingwen, where did you get this coal?" ”

Yan Fengzhen said hesitantly: "Below is the courtyard of the old prince Yizhong, I will call the door, and I will always give my father a face." No, a cart of white coal, it's enough, right? ”

It turns out that the large garden under the mountain belongs to the old prince Yizhong.

"That's enough."

It didn't take much, the Ding brothers loaded two baskets of white coal and carried them into Zhiyuan Hall. Inject water, start the boiler, and have a cup of tea, and the water vapor in it boils. Li Weijian stared at the mercury barometer, and when he saw that there were roughly two atmospheres, he immediately twisted the valve......

Yan Fengzhen's eyes widened and he looked carefully, but he didn't see any movement for a long time.

"Resurrection, your machine is unreliable?"

"The new machinery is not very lubricated." Li Weijian walked to the flywheel and raised his hand to rotate slightly, and then the flywheel rotated faster and faster, becoming more and more stable.

The white mist in the Zhiyuan Hall was filled, and it was like a fairyland in a blink of an eye. Yan Fengzhen took off his glasses to wipe the mist, and said insincerely: "That's it." ”

Li Weijian was in a good mood, and scolded with a smile: "You know a fart!" What is it? This is the beginning of a new era! ”
