The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 51

Caixia watched Jia Huan's back go away, and then left briskly, apparently in a good mood.Small people do not necessarily have no foresight. Caixia’s vision is obviously better than Jin Chuaner’s and others, and she knows how to make trade-offs. Baoyu is certainly good, and she is also a legitimate son, but there are too many people competing.

Although the concubine is not as noble as the legitimate son, he is still half the master. If he can become Jia Huan's roommate, he can be regarded as a turnaround, and Jia Huan's recent performance has been amazing, which has strengthened Caixia's determination to become Jia Huan's roommate.

Therefore, when Jia Huan was "exiled" by Jia's mother, others avoided it in time, but Caixia did the opposite, resolutely seized the opportunity to give charcoal in the snow, and successfully gained Jia Huan's favor. You can call her scheming or utilitarianism, anyway, this little girl is definitely a smart person, has vision, and knows what she needs.

Besides, Jia Lian went back to the residence angrily, and when she saw that Qin Shi was still there, she quickly restrained her temper and put on a smiling face, but Qin Shi still sensed it sensitively, stood up, said hello, and then left.

Wang Xifeng sent Mrs. Qin out, and then turned around, and saw Jia Lian sitting there with a dark face, and Feng'er was carefully waiting on the side.

"Who provoked you again? This face is not a face, and a nose is not a nose." Wang Xifeng asked curiously.

Jia Lian asked angrily, "Did the third ring come here?"

Wang Xifeng sneered and said, "That's right, not long after I left, I got angry when I mentioned this matter."

Jia Lian frowned and said, "How is it? Didn't Huan Laosan come to subdue you and beg for mercy?"

Wang Xifeng couldn't help covering his face with frost and said: "I thought he was here to beg for mercy, but unfortunately he wasn't. He was very stubborn, didn't say a word of softness, and even threatened me."

Jia Lian stood up suddenly, and said with an unbelievable expression: "Huan Lao San, he dared to threaten you? How did he threaten?"

Wang Xifeng pouted at the string of bacon on the coffee table and said, "Hey, you can see for yourself."

Jia Lian was a little dazed, mentioned the string of bacon, smelled it, and said puzzledly, "Third Huan threatened you with this piece of bacon? It's not a sword, it can't kill people, is it poisonous?"

Jia Lian's complexion changed, and he hurriedly threw away the string of bacon, and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

Wang Xifeng said angrily and amusedly: "Why are you panicking? Let's see if he has the guts to poison the third child."

"Then how did he threaten you?" Jia Lian frowned.

Wang Xifeng said with a little sarcasm: "This kid is very smart, he dare not say it out loud, he is afraid of being caught by others, so he is playing word games secretly. Today is the third day of the junior high school, but he said it was the fifteenth day, and he mentioned the 15th day of the junior high school, which means 'I will be the first day of the junior high school, and you will be the fifteenth day of the junior high school'. Look, what is this not a threat?"

Jia Lian was startled and suspicious, and sneered, "Good boy, he has a lot of talk. He doesn't have long hair on his ring, and he's still a bastard. How could he say such things? It's like a toad yawns, I don't know the heights of the world!"

Wang Xifeng also sneered and said: "Look, I said before that the third brother Huan is restless, and now he is so arrogant when he is only a little big, and he will be fine when he gets older? You have to ride on our heads to shit and pee."

Jia Lian coldly snorted disdainfully: "Is he worthy? You are too overestimating. I just disdain it for the sake of brotherhood. Otherwise, it would be too easy to deal with him. As an elder brother, beating him face to face can only be regarded as discipline. You turn around and cut off the daily necessities such as makeup, hair, hair and oil in Huan Lao San's house, so as to teach him how to respect brothers and sisters-in-law."

Seeing that her husband rarely stood alone, Wang Xifeng rejoiced in her heart, and said with a triumphant smile: "You don't need to say, I'm planning to work harder, and I won't believe in him. Now the people in his house can't even leave the house. Even if they have money, they can buy supplies. When the time comes, cut off the lamp oil, candles, makeup powder, hair oil, and firewood. It will be dark at night. Let's see if he cries or not!"

Jia Lian gasped. Although it was the beginning of February, it was still quite cold at night, especially in the cold spring these few days. It was hard to live without lights and lights, so he hesitated: "Is this too much? Besides, if Huan Lao San makes a big fuss, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with."

Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "Too much? This is what he asked for. If you want to make trouble, let him make trouble. I'm afraid he will make trouble? He can't see the old lady, so he can make trouble at his wife's place."

Jia Lian was silent, a little worried, as the so-called rabbit bites people in a hurry, driving Jia Huan into a hurry, this kid might do something unexpected, Lai Da's relative Wang Lusheng is an example, but Jia Lian also understands that with Wang Xifeng's temperament, it is useless to say anything about what she has decided, so he just shut up, and he also secretly hopes that Wang Xifeng can persuade Jia Huan, and then Jia Huan might obediently let Qiao Ping'er back come back.

…………

Besides, Jia Huan and Caixia returned to their residence after they met by chance, and immediately wrote a letter, intending to ask Qian Huai to find a way to send it out of the house to Tie Hu, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally burned the letter.

Jia Huan leaned quietly on the back of the chair, frowned, and fell into deep thought. Now if he does not overthrow Wang Xifeng, he must have a hard time, but if he wants to overthrow Wang Xifeng, he must rely on external force, but now he is trapped in the mansion, and he can't do it even if he wants to.

"No, no matter what, I have to find a way to get out of the house, the worst is to climb over the wall!" Jia Huan gritted his teeth, although he would definitely be punished if he was caught climbing over the wall, but Wang Xifeng's downfall was imminent, so he had to do it.

Jia Huan made up his mind. Early the next morning, he hurriedly finished the simple breakfast provided by the kitchen and left the yard. He told Ping'er to go and play with his third sister, Jia Tanchun.

During this time, Jia Huan spent most of his time in the house reading and writing scripts, and he didn’t eat well. Ping’er was a little worried that he was exhausted and wished that he would go out for a walk, so he didn’t ask any more questions, but softly told him to walk carefully.

After Jia Huan left the residence, he did not go to look for Jia Tanchun, but bypassed the main courtyard where Mrs. Wang lived, and came to the northeast corner behind Jia's mansion. There is a road leading directly to Lixiang Garden. At the end of the road, just pass through the corner gate.

Now the Lixiang Garden is still being repaired, and Jia Lian will go there every day to supervise the work, so Jia Huan reckons that the corner gate leading to the Lixiang Garden should be open, but Lixiang Garden is uninhabited, and there are streets and alleys outside the fence, which is the best place to climb over the wall.

Let's say Jia Huan walked quickly through the narrow passage and came to the corner door at the end, and found that it was not locked, as long as the latch was opened, the door could be opened and entered. He was overjoyed and pushed the door in immediately.

Early in the morning, the craftsmen who repaired the Pear Fragrance Garden had obviously not entered the garden for construction, so it was very quiet, only the birds were singing in the garden trees.Jia Huan strolled towards the backyard, but saw the ancient trees repaired and the shadows of the bamboos, it was a quiet place.

Just as Jia Huan was about to look for the place to climb over the wall, there was a light cough from behind him, he was startled, and he turned around to look around, feeling a thump in his heart.

It turned out that there was a person standing under a tree not far away at this moment, and it was Jia She, the elder of the Rongguo Mansion!

Jia Huan regained his composure, and saluted, "Huan'er has seen the elder."

Jia She stroked his beard and asked with a half-smile: "Brother Huan, what are you doing here alone so early in the morning?"

Jia Huan had calmed down at this time, and said with a natural expression: "Huan'er got up early to stretch his muscles and bones, and happened to come to the vicinity of the Lixiang Garden. He also heard that the mansion is currently repairing the Lixiang Garden, so he came in curiously. It was locked before, and this is the first time for Huaner to come in."

A trace of sarcasm flashed in Jia She's eyes, and he said in his heart: "Good boy, play sloppy with me? You are still a little tender!"

It turned out that Jia She had discovered Jia Huan a long time ago. He watched in the dark for a while and saw the latter looking around. It didn't look like he was just visiting, but Jia She didn't expose it, and said with a smile: "This is the place where your ancestors, your great-grandfather, the first generation of Rong Guogong rested in his old age. Since his old man passed away, no one lived here. It is usually locked. Even I haven't come in for more than ten years. Brother Huan, it's normal if you haven't come in. Come on, uncle will show you around. "

Jia Huan couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Jia She's gourd for a moment, so he had to pretend to be "nervous" and follow behind Jia She.

Jia She really took Jia Huan around the Lixiang Garden, and patiently told him about his wife and grandfather, as well as some interesting stories about his childhood, with a look of nostalgia.

Finally, Jia Amnesty led Jia Huan to a side door, and said with a smile, "Although Lixiangyuan is not big, there are more than a dozen rooms in the front and back yards, and there is a door leading directly to the street, which is very convenient. Well, open this door and you can go out." After speaking, he looked at Jia Huan with piercing eyes.

Jia Huan's heart trembled slightly. It seemed that Jia Amnesty had already guessed his real intention of coming here, but until now, he hadn't guessed Jia Amnesty's intention, so he pretended to be confused and said, "Really? That's very convenient. No wonder the wife plans to arrange for Aunt Xue's family to live here."

A trace of undetectable anger flashed in Jia She's eyes. She was the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion, but now the mansion has become the Wang family's world. The place where her ancestors were raised by Rong, why should she use it for her relatives to live in with just a word from the Wang family?
"Cough, Brother Huan, uncle, I vaguely heard that you were grounded by your mother, is there such a thing?" Jia She asked with a light cough.

Jia Huan had already keenly caught the anger flashing in Jia She's eyes just now, so he vaguely guessed something at this moment, and said calmly: "It's not that I am grounded. My mother just asked me to study hard at home and not to run around. It is also out of good intentions."
