Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

The training of the Red Flame Army is gradually getting on the right track.

These recruits are already high-quality soldiers, each of them can lift a hundred kilograms of stone locks.

After nearly half a year of training, everyone in the team has become much stronger.

They gradually gained the iron-blooded temperament of soldiers.

Their marksmanship also gradually gained a sharp aura.

Their archery skills have also improved greatly.

Of course, the so-called three hundred and sixty lines mean that one will be number one.

Everyone's talents are different.

It was impossible for everyone to become a marksman. Zhou Tong selected the most talented 1,000 from 10,000 recruits and formed a special marksman battalion.

Of course, it is not that other recruits are not equipped with bows and arrows and do not receive bow and arrow training.

It's just that the training focus of each battalion is different.

Only in riding skills, progress is a bit slow.

This is also something that can't be helped.

After all, these recruits had basically never ridden a horse before.

In this regard, it was the noble disciples of the twelve gangtou battalions who had the upper hand.

After all, their families were well off and they had all ridden horses.

Although his riding skills are far from superb, at least his starting point is much higher than that of other recruits.

Military formation drills are also gradually getting on track.

The strength of the new recruits improves almost every day.

Lieutenant General Zhou Tong spared no effort in training the new soldiers.

In terms of physical training, he takes the lead and leads by example. Always at the front.

As for other training, he has strict requirements and keeps an eye on every soldier.

There are ten thousand recruits in the Red Flame Army, and he dare not say that he can call everyone by name.

But he knew everyone.

His prestige in the military has almost reached its peak.

And Zhou Tong also liked the atmosphere in the Red Flame Army very much.

Here, regardless of family background, there is no intrigue.

In the Red Flame Army, if you want to make progress, you only need to look at your strength.

Zhou Tongnai was born in the border army, and he was also the border army adjacent to the Jin Kingdom that had the most conflicts.

Every year they fight against the Jin soldiers.

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of his frontier army was almost the strongest in Daxia.

However, Zhou Tong vaguely felt that the potential of this Red Flame Army was no less than that of the frontier army.

Although in terms of individual combat capabilities and battlefield experience, the Red Flame Army is far from comparable to the Border Army.

But the atmosphere in the Red Flame Army and the cohesion of the Red Flame Army are unmatched by the Border Army.

The powerful fighting power of the frontier army was fed with money.

If there is no money, the morale of the frontier army will also be lost.

But the Red Flame Army is different.

For a while, Zhou Tong could not find out how the Red Flame Army's cohesion was condensed.

If Jia Huan knew Zhou Tong's doubts, he would definitely tell him that it was faith.

The weather is getting hotter.

In the evening, after eating, all the recruits would take a shower by the river in small groups.

Zhou Tong, like all the soldiers, washed himself naked with the soldiers.

The general, Jia Huan, has never been here.

In other words, General Jia Huan never spent the night in the military camp.

I rarely trained with soldiers during the day.

Zhou Tong was very disdainful of such a general.

Every ten days, the Red Flame Army will organize an all-army gathering.

Ten thousand Red Flame troops will have an open-air barbecue in the wild, with teams of one thousand as a unit.

Every thousand-person team needs to have people and programs.

Almost all soldiers enjoy such gatherings.

Only Zhou Tong was very annoying.

He felt that such a gathering was meaningless and a waste of time.

Of course, what Zhou Tong hates the most is that he thinks Jia Huan is trying to win people's hearts through such gatherings.

Because even though Jia Huan almost never trains with the soldiers, he doesn't stay in the military camp at night.

But he can call every recruit by name, know their place of origin, and even know the situation at home.

Even Zhou Tong couldn't do this.

He had tried hard to remember, but ten thousand recruits were still too many.

Where can I remember it all?

But that pretty boy, Jia Huan, actually did it.

Zhou Tong suspected that this pretty boy was putting all his thoughts on this, right?

This made Zhou Tong very disdainful, and felt sour in his heart, feeling that all scholars had dirty hearts.

(The Red Flame Army is the foreshadowing, and Yanyu will not focus on describing the specific training process, although this can fill up the number of words. But such a plot is boring and boring, and a wise man will not do it. He will only intersperse some in the middle to give a general introduction to the training situation.)

……

Time passed day by day, Baoyu's wedding date was approaching, and Rongguo Mansion began to become more and more lively.

The decorations in the mansion started early, and smiles gradually appeared on everyone's faces.

On the wedding day, the entire Rongning Street was decorated with red and colorful decorations.

The running water table was set up on the street the day before. No matter who came, he only had to say a few auspicious words and sit down to eat.

On the wedding day, Jia Baoyu wore a groom's uniform, a big red flower on her chest, and rode a tall horse to greet the bride.

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang looked at Baoyu's retreating back, feeling happy and sad at the same time.

An hour later, the bride was welcomed back.

The bride's dowry can be described as a dazzling array of red dowry.

Compared with the dowry when I got married in the spring, I don't know how much more.

Even if compared in the entire capital, they are all outstanding.

After all, the Osmanthus Xia family is the last one.

From now on, the entire Xia family's wealth will be inherited by the bride.

In this case, the Xia family will naturally not be reluctant to part with the dowry.

When Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang saw the many dowries, they laughed from ear to ear.

Jia Mu just felt that Baoyu would have someone to rely on in the future, while Mrs. Wang coveted the dowry.

But on this day, not many relatives from the Jia family came.

People are accustomed to seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, but Rongguo Mansion is in such decline now.

Going too close to Rongguo Mansion would not only be of no benefit, but it would also be a drag on the embankment.

Those smart people naturally refused to come to the door.

As for other families, no one even visited the Wang family.

This shows that the last time Mrs. Wang came to ask for debts, she really offended the Wang family.

Jia Huan is here.

After all, in terms of blood relationship, Jia Baoyu is his half-brother.

If he doesn't come, it won't sound good if it gets out.

The Shi family also came, and Shi Xiangyun also came with them.

At the wedding banquet, everyone in the Jia family, from the mother-in-law to the maids, were all beaming with joy.

After all, this is a great event for Rongguo Mansion, and they can also get some rewards. Jia Huan only felt noisy.

After eating and drinking for a while, Jia Huan quietly left the table and prepared to leave.

On Baoyu's wedding, he also sent congratulatory gifts and came over for a formality.

It can be regarded as full of brotherhood.

If you continue to stay here, you might as well go back to Sister Lin and have a serious talk.

By the way, Lin Daiyu also sent congratulatory gifts, but no one came to the banquet.

After leaving the table, Jia Huan walked towards the east gate of Rongguo Mansion.

The east gate is still a small gate that was opened when the Grand View Garden was built. Because of the difficulty of walking, it has never been blocked again.

It's much closer to Ningguo Mansion from here.

As soon as he reached a secluded part of the garden, Jia Huan suddenly heard a woman crying from in front of him.

Jia Huan became curious. He didn't know what kind of injustice the girl had suffered on Baoyu's happy day, so she hid in this secluded place and cried bitterly.

However, Jia Huan had no intention of exploring. After hesitating for a moment, Jia Huan stopped and prepared to go around.

Unexpectedly, the crying woman heard footsteps at this time, and she quickly raised her head to see what was coming.

Jia Huan also discovered that the crying woman was indeed Shi Xiangyun.

Jia Huan couldn't help but sigh.

Shi Xiangyun was bold and generous, and she had always liked Jia Baoyu in her heart.

I heard that Jia Mu also proposed marriage to Shi Jia, but unfortunately she was rejected by Shi Jia.

As for Baoyu's wedding today, this girl must be very sad, so she hid here and cried bitterly.

When Shi Xiangyun saw Jia Huan, she felt ashamed. She quickly wiped the tears from her face and shouted, "Bad brother."

Hearing these three words, Jia Huan wanted to laugh again.

He couldn't help but say: "Sister Shi, life is often unsatisfactory, and everything cannot go as planned. If you want to cry, just have a good cry and let it go, and that will be fine."

Shi Xiangyun originally thought that Jia Huan might laugh at her, or advise her to obey the four virtues, saying that a woman should not make her own decision in marriage, etc.

He never expected that Jia Huan would actually say these words.

For a moment, Shi Xiangyun was in a mood, and she couldn't help but come over, hug Jia Huan, and burst into tears.

Jia Huan patted her back gently and let her cry.

Falling out of love is something that is really difficult for outsiders to deal with. The only way to deal with it is by yourself.

It doesn't matter if she has a good cry, Shi Xiangyun has a magnificent temperament, and a cry can help her relieve a lot of troubles.

Shi Xiangyun cried loudly and finally stopped.

She hurriedly left Jia Huan's arms and sheepishly took out her handkerchief and wiped it clean.

Then he whispered: "Bad brother, thank you."

After that, he turned and left.

Jia Huan shook his head and without thinking much, walked out from the east gate of Rongguo Mansion and turned to the Grand View Garden.

Halfway through, Jia Huan turned around and went into Ningguo Mansion to change his clothes, and then walked back to the Grand View Garden.

His clothes were wet from Shi Xiangyun's crying just now. If he goes to see Sister Lin like this, his flaws will definitely be seen.

It would be prudent to change your clothes before going.

Not long after, Jia Huan came to Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but smile when she saw Jia Huan: "You are not having a wedding banquet in Rongguo Mansion right now, so why are you coming to my place again?"

Jia Huan said: "There are so many people having a banquet, so why am I missing? It's better to come to Sister Lin's place and talk to you in a serious manner."

As Jia Huan spoke, he skillfully took Lin Daiyu into his arms.

Lin Daiyu sniffed for a while, then said: "You have another scent. This smell does not belong to the maid in your house, nor does it belong to the Qin family."

"Well, this smell feels so familiar. I'm afraid it doesn't come from Yun'er, right? Brother Huan, tell me, why do you have Yun'er's fragrance on you?"

Jia Huan couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Lin Daiyu's words.

Holy shit! You have a dog nose! Can you even smell this?

She could even smell the fragrance on Ke Qing's body?

Jia Huan and Qin Keqing had been secretly communicating with each other privately, and he thought Lin Daiyu didn't know about it.

Unexpectedly, Lin Daiyu had already smelled it, but she never exposed him.

It wasn't until today that she smelled the fragrance of Shi Xiangyun that she couldn't help but say it.

By the way, I even ran back and changed my clothes——

It can be seen that Sister Lin's nose is really effective.

Jia Huan said quickly: "Sister Lin, it's like this. I only had a few bites at the wedding banquet today, and then I thought about coming here to find you."

"Unexpectedly, I met Sister Shi hiding in a flower bed and crying secretly on the way, and I happened to bump into her. I comforted her for a few words, and she hugged me and cried loudly."

"I couldn't help but push her away, so—is Sister Lin's nose so smart? Can she even smell this?"

Lin Daiyu looked at Jia Huan with a half-smile but said, "So that's what happened. I thought I was going to add another sister!"

Jia Huan hurriedly said: "Sister Lin, you are overthinking things that don't happen anymore."

Jia Huan was afraid that Lin Daiyu would continue to ask about Qin Keqing's affairs, so he quickly changed the subject.

Fortunately, Lin Daiyu didn't ask any more questions, which allowed him to avoid this disaster.

(Lin Daiyu is not so stingy. In the book Red Mansions, Lin Daiyu once called Xi Ren sister-in-law)

Let’s talk about the wedding process of Jia Baoyu and Xia Jingui in Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Baoyu stumbled into the bridal chamber drunkenly.

Then he picked up the red hijab with the weighing pole and met Xia Jingui, who was as beautiful as a flower.

Xia Jingui also met the gentle Jia Baoyu, and both of them were satisfied with their first impression.

Then the two of them drank a glass of wine and went to bed to rest.

As the saying goes, a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold. The flowers are fragrant and the moon is cloudy.

The sound of the singing pipes on the balcony is soft, and the shadows of the swings in the courtyard are heavy.

There was no talking all night, but early the next morning, the two of them opened their eyes, looked at each other and smiled, both feeling very sweet.

Xia Jingui got up to wash up, and then went with Baoyu to pay his respects to Jia's mother.

The two of them walked to Rongqing Hall together. When entering, Jia Baoyu hurriedly reminded: "Madam, please slow down and be careful on the steps."

Xia Jingui said shyly: "Ms. sir, I'm keeping an eye on you. You should also be careful."

In the room, Mother Jia couldn't help laughing happily when she heard the young couple's loving interaction.

The two of them entered the house and hurriedly bowed and served tea to Jia Mu.

Jia Mu smiled and hurriedly called them to get up.

He called Xia Jingui to his side again, held her hand, and praised her.

After leaving Jia Mu's place, the two went to Jia Zheng's place to serve tea.

Jia Zheng was naturally extremely satisfied with his daughter-in-law.

Even Mrs. Wang, who is very picky and demanding, is extremely satisfied with her daughter-in-law because of the dowry she paid for several streets yesterday.

Next, I went to the main room to see Mrs. Jia Shexing.

On this day, the whole family met together.

Everyone praised Xia Jingui for being generous and decent, knowledgeable and courteous.

And the husband and wife Jia Baoyu and Xia Jingui sang in harmony with each other, and the good ones were like paint and glue, like honey mixed with oil.

A few days later, Xia Jingui set up a special table to entertain the sisters in the house.

After some hesitation, Lin Daiyu also went to the banquet.

Because they are all female relatives, Jia Baoyu naturally cannot go, but there is no need to be afraid of seeing Jia Baoyu.

As for Xia Jingui's first banquet as a bride, it would be bad for Lin Daiyu not to go.

At the banquet, Xia Jingui behaved generously and appropriately, the sisters laughed and played, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

After returning, Jia Huan couldn't help but ask them about their impressions of Xia Jingui.

Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "It's a good thing. This is also Brother Bao's blessing."

Tanchun thought for a while and said, "This second sister-in-law is probably a powerful one." (End of Chapter)
