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

Unexpectedly, the place had just settled down, and suddenly Jia Lian came to the door again, saying that it was Jia's mother who invited her.

In desperation, Jia Huan had no choice but to visit Rongguo Mansion again.

After entering the Rongqing Hall, Jia Huan saluted Jia Mu and said, "My grandson, please pay your respects to our ancestors."

"I was supposed to come over when I got home, but unexpectedly, friends and relatives kept coming and going, so it was easy to get free time."

"Just when I was about to come over to pay my respects to my ancestor during my free time, Brother Lian happened to come to greet me. It seemed that my grandson would forget to come and pay my respects to my ancestor if my ancestor didn't mention it."

After talking, Jia Mu and everyone in the room laughed.

Mother Jia couldn't help but said: "Look at this brother Huan, he is also a good talker. Instead of saying that he forgot, he blamed me."

"Actually, that's not what the old lady is here for today. What's the big deal if you don't ask me?"

"When you go out to lead troops to fight, it's extremely dangerous. I don't know how much hardship you're going to suffer. When you come back, you should have a good rest for a few days. If you don't extend your greetings to me, an old woman, what does it matter?"

"If I ask you to come here just to kowtow to me, it would seem that I, an old woman, don't care about my grandson."

"I asked you to come here actually for other reasons. Not only is Miss Baoqin from the Xue family here, but also a girl from the Xing family and the two daughters of your sister-in-law Zhu's sister-in-law are here to visit our family."

"The old lady was thinking about finally having a visit with her relatives, so that the sisters could live in the same place so that they could be taken care of."

"So I thought of arranging them all to live in the Grand View Garden, but now the Grand View Garden is your Dongfu's property."

"I must call you, the head of the family, to inquire and obtain your consent."

Hearing this, Jia Huan suddenly realized that Qingqing had called him here for this matter.

I have to say that Mother Jia really likes to give birth to good children, regardless of gender.

Jia Huan suspected that Big Face Bao's personality was inherited from Jia's mother.

The reason why Jia Mu called her here was probably because of Xue Baoqin.

In The Book of Red Mansions, Xue Baoqin, because of her good birth, pleased her mother Jia very much, so he rewarded her with a fur coat woven from the hair of a wild duck's head and face.

He also forced Mrs. Wang to recognize her as her goddaughter.

Although now, Jia Mu may not force Mrs. Wang to recognize her as her goddaughter.

But there are some who really like Xue Baoqin.

Thinking of this, Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "What did our ancestors say? This is something that should be done by relatives. Why bother asking your grandson again?"

"Even if the ancestors don't tell them, the grandchildren will still mention that they should be placed in the Grand View Garden."

Jia Huan's words were not just polite and perfunctory, he really thought so.

One part Dream of Red Mansions, half part Kingdom of Women.

How many stories happened in the Grand View Garden.

Chrysanthemum poems, couplets, and night banquets are the best memories these girls have left together.

Jia Huan came to the world of Red Mansions, but he was unwilling to let these beautiful things go missing.

After Jia Mu heard what Jia Huan said, she couldn't help but become more and more happy.

She couldn't help but say: "I just said that Brother Huan is indeed a good person. The old lady asked you to come, but it was just a question in vain."

"I haven't seen you in person for a few months, so I'd like to take this opportunity to ask you to come and see you."

"Brother Huan, come here and let me see if you have lost weight?"

Jia Huan had no choice but to go over, let Jia Mu take a closer look, and chat with her for a while before leaving.

Go through the east gate of Rongguo Mansion, then take the west gate of Ningguo Mansion and enter Ningguo Mansion.

This location happens to be near Tianxiang Tower and very close to Qin Keqing's yard.

Jia Huan stopped by Qin Keqing's yard and comforted Qin Keqing.

Then he returned to Ninglu Hall, took a comfortable bath, and had a good sleep.

These days I have been out and about, eating and sleeping in the open air, although the accommodation conditions have not been bad.

But it is never as comfortable as resting at home.

Jia Huan slept until daylight and woke up at almost noon the next day.

After getting up and washing up, having a brief lunch, and talking to Sister Lin for a while, Jia Huan got up and went to the Xue Mansion for the banquet.

Not long after, Jia Huan came to Xue Mansion and was directly welcomed into the inner house without any notification.

But I saw Xue Ding, Xue Biao, and Xue Baoqin's family all here.

Aunt Xue, Xue Pan, Xue Baochai accompanied him, and there was also a girl whom Jia Huan had never seen before.

Jia Huan saw that she was quite pretty, and what was even more rare was her bookish air, which gave her a bit of a ladylike air.

Jia Huan guessed that this was probably Fu Qiufang, the new bride of the Xue family.

As the saying goes, make up for what is missing. What Xue Pan lacks most is the scholarly atmosphere.

Is this probably why Xue Pan is most obsessed with her?

Jia Huan came up to see her, and as he expected, the young woman was Fu Qiufang.

Xue Ding's family brought up old things again and thanked Jia Huan.

Even Aunt Xue thanked Jia Huan again and again.

Everyone chatted for a while, and the banquet was already prepared.

Xue Pan immediately invited Jia Huan to the table.

Because Xue Ding was an elder, they were afraid of his presence, which made them unable to let go, so he did not accompany them.

Two brothers, Xue Pan and Xue Biao, accompanied him.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Xue Pan couldn't hide anything on his face.

Seeing the angry look on his face, Jia Huan couldn't help but ask: "Brother Xue, I wonder what happened?"

Xue Pan couldn't help but said: "Today we are hosting a banquet for Brother Huan, so we shouldn't say such disappointing things."

"It's just that the stupid bastard named Mei did this stupid thing, which is really annoying! But it makes people feel uncomfortable and unhappy!"

After hearing this, Jia Huan actually guessed the whole story.

He had expected this to happen.

However, he still had a puzzled expression on his face and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Xue, you also know me."

"I don't want to hear half-talk like this. Tell me what happened, and let me judge you."

Hearing what Jia Huan said, how could Xue Pan still be patient?

Ignoring the obstruction of Xue Biao next to him, he said angrily: "Brother Huan, didn't my second uncle's family come to Beijing to send my little sister Bao Qin to marry the Mei family?"

"Unexpectedly, that bastard of the Mei family turned out to be that Pan Renmei. She was in trouble and ended up abandoning her. She openly regretted her marriage!"

"If my second uncle and my mother hadn't held me back, I would have had to hit the door of his Mei family with a knife."

"Give him a white knife to go in and a red knife to come out, and let him know how powerful I am."

Xue Pan was so angry that he fell down.

Jia Huan said in a dumbfounded way: "Brother Xue, we brothers can just say this at home. We don't want to say this when we go out."

"The Mei family is just regretting their marriage. How did they get into trouble and end up abandoning each other? If this word spreads, will little sister Qin's reputation be lost? How will she get married in the future?"

Hearing Jia Huan's words, Xue Pan immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.

He slapped himself in the face and said: "Hey, you all know that I can't speak without thinking. I have no intention of ruining the reputation of little sister Qin."

"Brother Huan, do you think these bastards from the Mei family are really annoying? Are they doing what humans do?"

After hearing Xue Pan's words, Jia Huan understood. The reason why Mei Hanlin got married to the second wife of the Xue family was because Mei Hanlin was very poor at that time, and the poor Hanlin was not called the poor Hanlin for nothing.

At first, the Mei family was interested in the Xue family's second-bedroom property.

Nowadays, Mei Hanlin has become prosperous and is now the head of the Hanlin Academy, which can be said to be a high and powerful position.

How could she be married to the Xue family, who was just a businessman?

Failure to do so will cause them to lose their status among scholars.

Furthermore, the Xue family is one of the four major families and has a very close relationship with the Jia family.

Jia Huan, the Jia family, was once the vanguard of the reformists.

Mei Hanlin is the backbone of conservatives.

Even in terms of factional relations, he couldn't marry a girl from the Xue family.

Xue Pan may not be able to see through these things.

Jia Huan had seen through it a long time ago and had already guessed that this marriage would not work out.

Not only Jia Huan, but even Xue Ding also guessed it.

However, before the Mei family broke off the engagement, they could not regret their marriage first and could only wait for the Mei family to propose it.

When Jia Huan saw Xue Pan looking at him with bright eyes, he had no choice but to denounce Mei Hanlin with righteous indignation.

When Xue Pan looked at Jia Huan again, he felt that Jia Huan was more and more pleasing to the eye.

After the banquet, Jia Huan returned to Ningguo Mansion, still thinking about Xue Ding and Xue Baoqin.

Jia Huan felt that after the Mei family's divorce, the second master of the Xue family would come to visit him in a few days.

This person is a long-time shopping mall, so he can't even make this decision.

……

Let us say that all the sisters have settled down in the Grand View Garden.

Unexpectedly, Shi Nai, the Marquis of Baoling, transferred officials from other provinces to other provinces and would soon bring his family to take office.

Because Jia Mu couldn't bear to leave Xiangyun, she kept her and took her home.

Mrs. Wang was originally ordered to live in another place with her. Shi Xiangyun refused, as long as he lived with Baochai, that was all.

At this time, the Grand View Garden was much more lively than before.

Li Wan is the leader, followed by Tanchun, Xichun, Baochai, Daiyu, Xiangyun, Li Wen, Li Qi, Baoqin, Xingxiuyan, and if Jia Huan is added, there are eleven in total.

Talking about Nian Geng, except Li Wan who is the oldest, the remaining ten people are all only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Some of these three are of the same year, some of those five are of the same age, some of these two are on the same month and day, and those two are on the same day at the same time. The difference is mostly just the time, month and minute.

Even they themselves can't remember who is the elder and who is the younger, and Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, the mother-in-law and the maids at home can't analyze them in detail. They just shout the words "brother", "brother", "sister" and "sister" randomly. .

Xiangling was so happy that so many people came to the Grand View Garden at once.

Xiangling originally liked writing poetry, but now there are so many poets in the garden.

Shi Xiangyun was very talkative, so he couldn't resist Xiangling and asked her to talk about poetry. He became more and more happy and started talking day and night.

Baochai smiled and said, "I really can't bear the noise. A girl's family just talks about serious things with poems, which makes educated people laugh and say that they don't keep their duties."

"Xiang Ling didn't make it clear, so he added words like yours to the bag. What was he talking about: How could it be 'the gloominess of Du Gongbu, the elegance of Wei Suzhou', and how could it be 'the beauty of Wen Bajia' "Miscellaneous, the seclusion of Li Yishan'."

"I don't know what to do with two ready-made poets talking about those dead people!"

After hearing this, Xiangyun asked with a smile: "Which two are they? My dear sister, tell me."

Baochai smiled and said: "The dull Xiangling is bitter, and the crazy Xiangyun talks a lot." After hearing this, Xiangyun and Xiangling both laughed.

Just as he was talking, he saw Baoqin coming, wearing a cloak, shining with gold and green, and he didn't know what it was.

Baochai asked quickly: "Where is this?"

Baoqin smiled and said: "Because it was snowing, the old lady found this one for me."

Xiang Ling came up to take a look and said: "The strange road is so beautiful, it turns out it is made of peacock feathers."

Xiangyun said: "There are peacock feathers there, which are made from the hair on the head of wild ducks. It shows that the old lady loves you. She loves Baoyu like this, but she didn't even wear it for him."

Baochai said: "As the saying goes, 'Everyone has his or her own fate'. I never imagined that he would come here now, and now that he is here, there is an old lady who loves her so much."

Xiangyun looked at Baoqin for another half a day and said with a smile: "This piece of clothing is only suitable for her. If anyone else wears it, it really doesn't fit."

Seeing that it was going to snow again, the girls decided to hold a poetry club and join together to write poems.

And since he wanted to compose poetry, Jia Huan, who was already the most talented person in Daxia, had to be invited.

After deliberation, Tanchun sent a greeting invitation to Jia Huan.

Unfortunately, Jia Huan is going to the Red Flame Army camp tomorrow.

Jia Huan compiled the statistics of the Red Flame Army's military exploits and reported them when the squadron returned to the court.

Now the Ministry of War has checked clearly and rewarded the general's merits.

At this time, it would be hard for the coach Jia Huan to be absent.

Therefore, he had no time tomorrow and had no choice but to refuse Tanchun.

Tanchun and other sisters had no choice but to go enjoy the snow scenery and write poems by themselves.

Jia Huan came to the Red Flame Army camp and began to distribute rewards to all the soldiers of the Red Flame Army.

In this Southwest War, almost all military success was attributed to the Red Flame Army.

Of course, the big head is thanks to their general Jia Huan.

But if it is distributed to each person, it is a huge military achievement.

And those soldiers who fight the most bravely and kill the most enemies can be directly promoted to two levels at a time, and can also receive a reward of one hundred taels of silver.

Among the luckiest soldiers, there are soldiers from Huotou Camp.

Two of them are second-generation Wu Xun from the founding lineage.

There were a total of sixteen martial arts disciples who came in through the back door.

Four of them chose to leave because they couldn't stand the training.

The remaining twelve people stayed behind in vain, and in the end they all stayed in the Huotou Camp.

However, Jia Huan also gave them secret guidance.

Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

As long as they train hard every day, there may not be room for them to perform on the battlefield.

And this time, the Huotou Camp really found an opportunity.

This time, the Huotou Battalion's combat effectiveness was no worse than that of the regular army.

This also made the regular army's gang leaders look at each other with admiration.

And these two noble sons had only served as soldiers in the Red Flame Army for one year, and they had been promoted to two levels in a row.

Although the grade is still not high.

But this is different from being promoted through the back door at home. This is achieved through military merit.

Moreover, the Red Flame Army is so famous now that it has become synonymous with the strongest army in Daxia.

As long as he stays in the Red Flame Army, will there be fewer opportunities for promotion and wealth in the future? (End of chapter)
