Looking at the figures of Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan, they disappeared into the darkness outside the door.

Jia Baoyu sighed faintly, only to feel that his experience in the past ten years was far from the thrilling and absurd, and the twists and turns of the past few days.

After sighing, he turned his head to look at Xiren and Qingwen, and saw that the two women who were usually beautiful, were now as haggard as those eggplants beaten by frost.

"Father~"

When Xiren saw him looking over, he hurriedly grabbed the ground with his head, choked and called out, but he really didn't know what to say, so he just sobbed.

Na Qingwen had a violent temper, and stabbed her neck and shouted: "Second Master, I don't have much contact with my uncle and brother on weekdays. Although he bears your name, he is definitely not my order, why..."

Xiren hurriedly tugged at her and whispered, "Don't tell me now, being careful and agitated, he became insane."

Qingwen then reluctantly closed her mouth.

Jia Baoyu looked at the two of them for a while, and all kinds of things came to mind in the past. First, they were full of reluctance to part with them, and secondly, they were a little disillusioned.

In the end, he waved his sleeves dejectedly, and ordered, "Go back to your own room and rest, I'm now... I'm so nervous right now, I really don't know what to do with you."

Qingwen was still hesitating, but Xiren heard the looseness from these words, and hurriedly pulled Xiren up and walked towards the residence.

After walking a few steps, Xiren couldn't help but turn around and whisper: "If you're not happy, just talk to Miss Lin."

Sister Lin...

Yes, among the hundreds of people in this family, I am afraid that she is the only victim who is innocently involved like herself.

A little warmth surged in Jia Baoyu's heart, and he was determined to go to talk to Daiyu immediately, but thinking of what he was going to do tomorrow, he couldn't help but sighed, and went back to the house in despair, and locked the door with his backhand.

Although he was restless in his heart, after all, he hadn't slept for two days and one night, so he slept in a drowsy sleep after laying in bed for a while.

knock knock knock

In a daze, I vaguely heard someone knocking on the door, but Jia Baoyu was really in no mood to get up, so he shouted vaguely: "Go to sleep, don't be noisy!"

The knocking on the door stopped.

Silent all night.

When the rooster croaked three times and the dawn broke, Baoyu got up in random clothes, and staggered to the door. Just as he was about to open the latch, he suddenly found Fang Sheng, made of folded rice paper, tucked in the crack of the door.

Baoyu opened it suspiciously, but saw that there was a piece of Li Bai's "Walking Road Difficulty", and from the beautiful running script, it was clearly Lin Daiyu's handwriting.

It turns out that she came here again last night!

Repeatedly chewing on the last sentence: There will be times when the wind and waves break, and the sails will hang straight to the sea.

Jia Baoyu's eyes were red, but he almost burst into tears. He wiped it off with his sleeves, and placed Fang Sheng close to him. He opened the door and greeted loudly, "Come here, tell me to get off the carriage. I'm going outside to relax!"

With just this voice, it was like a pot was opened outside, and all the maids and ladies came together to serve.

Not long after, even Mrs. Wang arrived, and she persuaded her son to rest for a few days, so that nothing would happen again.

But Jia Baoyu insisted on going out to relax. Madam Wang couldn't stop her, and she was afraid that she would be ruthless. No matter how much the debt collector seeks death, he has no choice but to go with him.

It's just that Jia Baoyu broke through the gate of the Rongguo Mansion as if he was trying to save his life, only to see Lai Dazheng standing in front of the carriage!

"Second Master Bao."

Seeing Baoyu go out, he cupped his hands and said, "The old lady was afraid that something would happen to you outside, so she asked me to take care of you by your side."

Pain too!

Jia Baoyu was a little overwhelmed for a while, and wanted to make a change, but seeing Lai Da staring at him with a smile but not a smile, he was flustered and at a loss, but how could he still make trouble

"Second Master, get in the car."

Lai laughed and raised his chin, and a servant immediately raised the curtain of the car.

Seeing that Baoyu was like a marionette, he obediently got into the carriage, and Da Lai became more and more complacent.

He secretly said that the masters in this mansion are really not as good as one crop, if this Jia Baoyu becomes the master in the future, the Rongguo mansion is afraid that he should be the one who will tell the truth.

Thinking like this in his heart, Da Lai, on the surface, did not reveal his expression, and asked respectfully, "Second Master, I don't know where you want to go for entertainment, but are you going to Uncle Xue's mansion?"

"Go... go outside the city... let's go around Zhuangzi outside the city."

Jia Baoyu said it hesitantly, and seeing the driver was about to shake off his horsewhip, he hurriedly added: "Our family is tired of seeing it, so this time we will go to Zhuangzi in the East Palace."

After he finished speaking, he stole his eyes to look at Lai Da, seeing that he didn't mean much vigilance, so he relaxed.

Speechless all the way.

However, he said that the two carriages had left these four and nine cities one after another. Seeing that they had obtained the Zhuangzi of Ningguo Mansion, the servants had already rushed over to inform them, so Wu Yangyang greeted more than a dozen servants.

Seeing that none of them were older, Baoyu asked, "I heard that Jiao Da from the East Mansion is here, why didn't you see him?"

But it turned out that the loyal servant he told Sun Shaozong yesterday was Jiao Da of Ningguo Mansion!

Speaking of people who can sacrifice their lives for the Jia family, he can only think of Jiao Da - although he also vaguely feels that it is not reliable to rely on an old man, but he really can't think of anyone else.

When all the villagers heard him mention Jiao Da, they quickly separated the two of them out, and found an old man with white beard and hair and trembling hands and feet from the field.

"Where's the brother in the West House?"

The old man tried his best to lift his eyelids and looked at Baoyu for a while, then his eyes fell on Baoyu, his jagged jaws opened, and he said vaguely, "Yo, isn't this the elder brother of Mr. Zheng's family? Big."

We haven't seen each other for more than a year, and this Jiao Da seems to be ten years older!

When Jia Baoyu saw his waning appearance, his heart suddenly became cold again. Yesterday, Sun Shaozong said that he had no power to hold a chicken, and the old man in front of him might not be as good as himself!

If it is replaced by a mature and prudent person, at this time, he will definitely not take risks indiscriminately, but choose to take a long-term plan.

But Jia Baoyu has always been rash, and felt that since he was here, the arrow had to be shot!

So as soon as he gritted his teeth, he continued according to the original plan: "A few days ago, I heard people mention your old experience, so I wanted to come over and see - can you tell me more about the war with the old man? "

Those glorious years were originally the things that Jiao Da was most willing to mention, so when he heard this, he immediately said with a wide-eyed smile: "That feeling is good! Come, come, brother, come back to the house with me, I will tell you from beginning to end. listen!"

Seeing that the old man and the young man entered Zhuangzi, Lai Daluo hesitated for a while, but did not follow after all, but called out the two servants to let them follow from a distance, not to let Jia Baoyu make any fools.

But Jia Baoyu was dragged by Jiao Da not far away, and he felt that the strength in his hands was getting heavier and heavier, and Jiao Da's feet were getting more and more staggered, so he hurriedly reached out and supported Jiao Da.

"The body bones of this balloon are becoming more and more useless."

Jiao Da laughed at himself, looked back at the two servants behind him, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "My brother is looking for me, is there something wrong?"

Jia Baoyu was already terrified. How could this old man who was dying could help him get rid of Da Lai? He was so stubborn that he suddenly heard Dao Jiao's inquiry, and suddenly blurted out what was on his mind: "I want to kill Da Lai!"

After speaking, he immediately regretted it again.

Sun Shaozong clearly explained, don't make things too transparent...

"Ha ha."

He heard Jiao Da grin, his cloudy eyes flashed a bit of clarity, and he lowered his voice and said, "That brother wait a quarter of an hour, and then tell Na Lai to leave, and then we will see our man kill him for my brother. !"

Jia Baoyu was feeling remorse, but when he heard Jiao Da say that the clouds were light and the wind was light, it seemed that Lai Da was just a piece of paper.

But he didn't want to question it clearly, so he just scolded: "Old man, why don't you even ask the reason."

Jiao Da tried his best to straighten his chest and said, "When our gentlemen follow the grandfather, they always ask who to kill, not why!"

Immediately, he hunched over again and muttered, "Besides, my ears aren't deaf yet. My brother was checking accounts in the manor, and there was a life-threatening incident. I've filled my ears a long time ago."

As he spoke, he had already arrived at Jiao Da's residence, but the cramped room was full of black holes, and there was a faint smell of a rotten old man. Baoyu, who had always been happy and clean, immediately cringed.

"Go."

Jiao Dahu broke away from Jia Baoyu's support and said in a loud voice, "Since I think my house is dirty, then don't listen to the story!"

Saying that, he scratched off a few withered white hair and walked slowly into the room.

Seeing his slow movements, it seemed as if time had frozen, Jia Baoyu's uneasiness and regret in his heart were rushing to the top.

"Second Master!"

When the two servants heard the shout, they hurriedly came up and said with relief, "Don't pay attention to this ignorant old thing! If you really want to know about the two old ladies, go to the teahouse and listen to them a few times. Books, it's all there!"

Jia Baoyu stared at the dark room, let out a sigh of relief, and said sullenly, "Let's go, accompany me to the fields, and then we'll leave for the house."
