Chapter 229 Baoyu: All she sees now is... Master Heng.

In Honor Hall——

When the night fell, Jia Mu was talking to Fu Qiufang. Not far away, Sister Feng and Li Wan accompanied each other with smiles, while Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun, Daiyu, Xiangyun and other sisters also bathed and rested, and accompanied them. joking.

Yingchun and Xichun also listened to Jia Mu's orders, went back to their room to take a nap, and called again at dinner time.

Mrs. Wang sat quietly on the chair below, with a smile on her face, while Jin Chuan, Yu Chuan, Caixia and Caiyun were serving her with their hands down.

As for Baoyu, he finally got some free time, and sat on a stool beside him, staring intently at the elegant woman in a light blue skirt opposite her.

He has always known that Fu Shi's sister is a beautiful woman, but she has always been stingy, but today he met her, she is indeed a Yiren, her clothes are like green plums, and she is as elegant as a chrysanthemum.

That's the head, it's really tall.

There were two women sitting behind Fu Qiufang, and they also looked at Baoyu calmly. They were instructed by Fu Shi to come over to have a look at Baoyu's character. Although Baoyu was still young, his face was like a silver basin. His eyes are like bright stars, his appearance is dignified, and his heart is secretly satisfied.

Jia Mu smiled lightly, and said to Sister Feng, "I never heard from the master before, but the girl from the Fu family is such a nice person."

Sister Feng said with a smile: "Old ancestor, isn't it? I like this girl Qiufang, especially her slim figure."

But there was a strange feeling in his heart, he had heard for a long time that Fu Shi was a high-spirited person, and after thinking about it, he also wanted to climb high branches.

In this era, once the age of twenty-eight is passed, it is not too important to be settled, because no matter how late it can be delayed until the age of twenty-nine, after that it is not called procrastination. Everyone around knows that there is no It's hard to say, but this family's eyes are too picky, and when they fall on Fu Shi, they just want to climb high.

Fu Qiufang was somewhat shy by what Sister Feng said, and said softly: "Second Mistress Lian is overrated, but she is taller than ordinary people."

At this moment, Daiyu and Tanchun also secretly looked at Fu Qiufang and exchanged glances. Daiyu said softly, "Why is this sister born so tall?"

Tanchun smiled and said, "Sister Lin, how do I know this?"

"Sister Lin, is your leg not hurting anymore?" Tanchun asked in a low voice.

Daiyu said in a low voice: "I smeared some medicinal wine and kneaded it with Zicuckoo. It's much better."

Tanchun turned his head to look at Daiyu, and said softly, "I'm sorry for Sister Lin."

From Tanchun's point of view, with Daiyu's temperament, she does not want to make a statement. Firstly, she has a strong temper. Secondly, she is not worried that Jiamu will speak out about Jia Heng because of her affairs.

Daiyu said softly: "It's worth nothing at first, but if the disturbance is earth-shattering, it's not good."

As she said that, Daiyu couldn't help raising her eyes to look at Baoyu who was staring at Fu Qiufang's Baoyu. For some reason, she suddenly thought of Zijuan's words, her starry eyes twinkled, and she fell into deep thought.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the hall, saying: "Old lady, madam, Master Heng is here."

In Rongqing Hall, everyone was startled when they heard the words, Jia Mu smiled and said: "I was just about to call him, Yuanyang, go and greet him for me."

The mandarin duck let out a "hey", got up from the seat, and walked towards the outside, but just outside the screen, Jia Heng, led by the mother-in-law, had already grown up.

Jia's mother entertained Jia Heng with a meal, firstly to show her affection, and secondly because of the etiquette of accompanying her to Qingxu Temple and offering sacrifices during the day.

When Jia Heng entered the hall, everyone stood up. Sister Feng stood up with a smile and said, "Brother Heng, why don't you see my brothers and sisters and sister-in-law You?"

Jia Heng glanced at Baoyu, with a calm face, and said: "But Qing is a little tired. After going back, she lay on the bed and rested. She hasn't gotten up yet. Sister-in-law You said she was talking with her two younger sisters. Tomorrow morning, come again to say hello to the old lady."

The reality is that Keqing is entertaining Youshi, Second Sister, and Third Sister in the inner hall. It will be later, and the dominoes may be wiped.

This is about the daily pastime of noble ladies.

Sister Feng smiled and said softly: "Then let's eat, I will go to see her at night."

Last night, her second master went out again, and she was upset, and she didn't know who to complain about.

"Okay, don't just talk, Brother Heng, come and sit down, but I have met Fu Tongpan." Jia Mu asked with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, both pairs of eyes turned to Jia Heng, even Fu Qiufang, who was sitting dignifiedly beside him, also cast a pair of quiet eyes to Jia Heng.

As Jia Heng approached, he sat down on the embroidered pier, with a serious expression, and said: "I've seen it all, and now, I'm talking with the second master in Mengpozhai."

Jia Mu nodded and said with a smile, "How do you say?"

"What else can I say?" Jia Heng took the teacup brought by the mandarin duck beside him, and said, "It's nothing more than persuading him to take care of himself."

Jia Mu and Fu Qiufang: "..."

But after thinking about it, maybe you can't speak too bluntly in the officialdom, and listen to the sound, it seems that you are still arrogant.

Here, seeing several people talking, especially the young man surrounded by stars holding the moon, Mrs. Wang frowned and said softly: "Yu Chuan, make that bowl of butter tea for Baoyu, this time Don't be hungry."

"Yes, ma'am." Yu Chuan replied, turning around to make tea.

Jia Mu's son also looked at Baoyu at this moment, smiled, and said, "It's time for dinner. My Baoyu has been starved to death."

In the side room, I brewed it, gave it to Baoyu, and said, "Second Lord, drink some tea, be careful of it being hot."

Baoyu responded, and reached out to take it, but the result was absent-minded, just unsteady, and there was a click, and the porcelain bowl fell to the ground. The jade bracelet was startled and hurried away, but some warm tea fell on Baoyu's hand.

Mrs. Wang just stood up suddenly, her face became anxious, and said: "Baoyu, Baoyu..."

Jia Mu also froze with a smile on her face, and said, "Baoyu, my son, why are you so careless?"

"Hey, my second master, be careful not to burn yourself." Yu Chuan's face paled, and her face was already pale.

Different from the original book, when Bai Yuchuan came to deliver the lotus leaf soup, he knocked down the soup bowl and scalded Baoyu. At that time, Jiamu and Mrs. Wang were not seen. Now everyone is watching, in front of Jiamu and Mrs. Wang , fear can be seen.

Baoyu looked at Yuchuan's white and beautiful face, smiled, and said, "Sister, why are you burning? Does it hurt?"

Yu Chuan, Mrs. Wang, and Jia Mu: "..."

Yu Chuan thought to himself, "Second Master burned himself, why did he come to ask me?"

Seeing this scene, Fu Qiufang raised her eyes and glanced at Baoyu, while the mother-in-law behind her looked at each other, and they all looked at each other.

It seems to be saying, this master, why is he not very smart...

Jia Mu stepped forward, grabbed Baoyu's hand, looked at the red mark on it, frowned and said: "My son, look at where it is hot, mandarin ducks, lakes, quickly bring a cold towel and apply it to Baoyu, the back of this hand There is a small red mark on it, be careful not to get bubbles."

Mrs. Wang also stepped forward to check. Seeing this scene, she looked at Yu Chuan coldly, and couldn't help scolding: "You clumsy stupid thing."

Yu Chuan paused, lowered his head, and stepped aside.

A group of maidservants surrounded her, but left Fu Qiufang aside.

Jia Heng also looked at Baoyu, and his eyes fell on the crispy cheese tea that was not much hot on the ground. He said silently, "Hurry up and apply a cold towel, if it's later, the red marks will all go down."

Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang, and Sister Feng: "..."

This time, it was Xiang Yun who was the first to hold back, and said with a "Puff" and said with a smile, "Brother Heng, how can Brother Ai ([-]) be so squeamish?"

There was a burst of chuckling in Rongqing Hall, even Jia Mu couldn't help being dumbfounded, as for Sister Feng's face was weird, her pink lips moved, she didn't know what to say.

But Mrs. Wang's complexion was already gloomy and livid, and her heart was full of resentment.

When did her precious jade become the object of wanton ridicule in Rongqing Hall?

"It's all that Uncle Heng!"

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang just cast a glance at Xiangyun, but she even hated Xiangyun a little bit.

Xiangyun didn't know it. He walked up to Baoyu and said, "Brother Ai (second), are you all right?"

Baoyu laughed too, and said, "It wasn't hot at all. The old ancestor seemed to be in a hurry to give something. The red mark has gone down."

Jia Heng said: "This is the man of my Jia family. He is neither painful nor itchy. He makes troubles and restlessness. What does he look like?"

Although Baoyu's reaction was a little longer, it was not a problem, but Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's reaction of "the sky is falling, the ground is falling, and the little flower dog is gone" is what fueled Baoyu's stubbornness and stupidity. The culprit of habit.

When Jia's mother heard that Jia Heng said that Baoyu was a man from the Jia clan, her face softened a little.

Even Mrs. Wang at the side frowned, and the anger in her heart... seemed to have dissipated a little.

This is why Mrs. Wang doesn't like Jia Heng anymore, but Jia Heng's words carry [-]% weight.

It may sound a bit low-key, but the fact is that, with Jia Heng's current "status in the Jianghu", Madam Wang is both disdainful and secretly happy when she praises and approves of Baoyu.

"Old Ancestor, children have bumps and bumps. When I was a child, I climbed trees every day and fell from the trees. At that time, I patted the dirt on my body and ran to play." Sister Feng laughed.

But seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he made fun of his own embarrassment.

Jia Heng also took a look at Sister Feng, and said to herself, no matter what Sister Feng does, the acting skills of this warm-up king will always be online.

Jia Mu laughed and said, "Monkey, you were so noisy when you were young. Our Baoyu is quiet and secretive, even more beautiful and quiet than that girl."

Everyone in Rongqing Hall laughed when they heard the words, and the atmosphere became noisy, brisk and joyful again.

Baoyu also smiled, and said softly: "If there is an afterlife, I would rather entrust the body of a daughter instead of being such a man."

As soon as the words came out, Rongqingtang burst into laughter, and they all looked at Baoyu in unison, shocked, strange, puzzled, and so on.

Mrs. Wang frowned and said, "What nonsense!"

The attacker on the side hurriedly stepped forward to hold Baoyu, who was already pale.

Jiamu's smile faltered for a while, and she said softly, "The children are just kidding, why do they take it seriously?"

At this moment, there are still outsiders, why did they get angry?

Mrs. Wang just felt that she lost her face. At this moment, her heart was irritated. Hearing this, she said to Jia Mu: "Good men hang around in the back house all day long, and they are instigated by some vixen and nightmares. Do a good job." , talk nonsense."

I didn't think much of it before, but it was really chilling for my son to say such stupid things in front of many people.

But when Mrs. Wang said this, Daiyu in the crowd turned pale and her delicate body trembled slightly.

Second brother Bao has always been stubborn with her, so who is second aunt talking about?

How could she be so charming...

Thinking of this, Qiong's nose turned sour, and the circles of her eyes were reddish. Tanchun stretched out her hand and held Daiyu's hand to express her relief.

Mother Jia sighed, and said, "You can't count on children's words."

Sister Feng said with a smile: "Old ancestors don't need to worry. Didn't Brother Heng say that after the school is built, Baoyu will be able to enter school. This morning, he also said that Brother Bao is benefiting. It can be seen."

Jia Mu laughed and said, "What Feng girl said is reasonable."

Then he looked at Jia Heng, who was silently sipping tea, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, you should take care of Gu Baoyu as an elder brother."

"That's natural." Jia Heng smiled, glanced at Daiyu who had reddish eye circles and drooped her head to wipe her tears, and said softly: "Baoyu is not young anymore, in fact, he can live in the school, where there will never be What is the second wife talking about, Hu Meizi?"

Madam Wang: "..."

Fu Qiufang watched a few people talking, Yurong paused slightly, his eyes flickered, and he sighed inwardly.

How could she not know her brother's intentions, but this Baoyu didn't mention the age difference, it was just the child's temperament.

The mother-in-law behind her also looked at Baoyu with a strange expression.

Jia Mu smiled and said, "It's already here, just urge him to go to school."

Mrs. Wang looked silent and said nothing.

Sister Feng smiled and said: "Old Ancestor, let's not talk about this for now. I've been thinking about it for a while. Is it time to eat? There are still guests here."

Mother Jia nodded with a smile, and ordered Sister Feng and Lin Zhixiao's family to prepare meals, then looked at Fu Qiufang, and said with a smile: "Let you see a joke, Baoyu has been naughty since she was a child. Brother worry."

This is a bit of a backtracking.

Fu Qiufang raised a beautiful face, and said softly: "I heard from my elder brother that the second master Bao was born with jade, and he was born with great fortune. Although children are playful, there are some, but once they practice hard, If you want to come to the top of the list in three or two years, it will be no problem."

These words made Jia Mu smile, and Mrs. Wang was elated, and she couldn't help but soften her gaze when she looked at Fu Qiufang.

When Baoyu heard this, his heart was not happy, and his eyes became a little cold. Then he looked at Fu Qiufang, who was the "Qiong lady and beautiful jade" opposite, and sighed deeply in his heart. Such a beautiful and quiet woman, never thought that she was also the one who was so devoted to fame and fortune. Worldly people?

Although Jia Heng's words of a hermit that day pierced Baoyu's diorama, but firstly, the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change; secondly, it also inspired Baoyu's true pursuit of the hermit to some extent. Just be a rich and idle person who loves mountains and rivers in this life!

"It's only sister Lin who understands me..." Baoyu suddenly thought of Daiyu, and looked for Daiyu. Looking at...Master Heng?

In the starry eyes under the smoldering eyebrows... there seemed to be some tears?

Baoyu's heart trembled violently, and she just froze in place, with a face full of Mid-Autumn Festival and a full moon, her expression froze.

Sister Lin, her tears are no longer for him alone, her eyes are now... Uncle Heng.

In fact, this is Baoyu's misunderstanding. Just now Mrs. Wang's words of "pointing at Sang and scolding Huai" contained Daiyu. Daiyu felt wronged, and her eyes were slightly red.

As for looking at Jia Heng?

Eight pairs of Rong Qingtang's eyes were on Jia Heng.
