The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 144: Childhood sweetheart vows to the heart

   Ping'er paled in shock, thinking how he was doing.

   Fortunately, Baoyu turned his face and got up again, muttering in despair, "What a family of meritorious princes, it turned out to be a nest of robbers in his bones!"

Ping'er breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward to help him pat the dirt on his body, half complaining and half admonishing, "This is what you can say? If you still have a trace of kindness, go out here. Don't talk nonsense anymore, just as long as you haven't heard of it!"

   "Sister, don't worry."

   Jia Baoyu reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a smile that was uglier than crying: "Even if I die, I will never involve you."

   As he said, the walking corpse usually left Wang Xifeng's yard, and he didn't know where to go, so he just wandered around in the inner house.

   "Why do you have this again, why do you seem to have lost your soul?"

   Suddenly, a smiling voice came into his ears. Jia Baoyu looked up and saw a master and a servant flashed in front of him, but who else could it be if it wasn't Lin Daiyu or Zijuan?

   Seeing Lin Daiyu face to face at first glance, Jia Baoyu was ashamed and aggrieved. When he lowered his head slightly, a few drops of "Golden Beans" fell on the ground.

   "Yeah!"

Now Daiyu was really taken aback by him, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a soft voice: "Are you guilty of something insane, or are you annoyed with that girl again? Wipe away the tears, or others. I saw it, and thought it was me."

   The more relieved she was here, the more Jia Baoyu cried.

  In the end, Lin Daiyu became impatient, and paused and said, "What the **** are you doing? Tell me anyway! This is silent, it makes people anxious to death!"

   said, the eye circles are also a little red.

   Seeing that she was about to accompany her to tears, Jia Baoyu randomly wiped a sleeve with her sleeve, and involuntarily pulled Daiyu behind the rockery and pushed the purple cuckoo aside.

   Then he misappropriated Jia's residence for the purpose of repairing the other courtyard and embezzled the Lin family's six hundred thousand taels of silver. He told Daiyu all his brains, only concealing the saying of "one man and two families".

   After finishing speaking, he gritted his teeth and swore again, claiming that he would die, and he would return the money to Daiyu!

Lin Daiyu listened in a daze for a while, and saw him betting and swearing to seek life and death. With two small eyebrows frowned, she said: "This money is not yours. Which one should you pay back? Besides, you can't hold your hands or shoulders. It’s because I’m afraid it’s not worth a lot of money if I sell you."

  Who knows the word ‘sell’, but it is in the knot of Baoyu’s heart!

   So he looked at Daiyu idiotically, tears streaming down again.

Daiyu knew that there was a drama of'one man selling two houses', thinking that he was anxious and sad for himself, and felt very relieved, and sighed: "In fact, I don't need you to say it, I already knew about silver. It's a child."

   "You...do you know this?!"

   Jia Baoyu was startled and stunned, and even the tears stopped all of a sudden.

Lin Daiyu sighed again and murmured: "When I went south last year, there were many good things in Yangzhou, and they were not inferior to the furnishings in this mansion. When I returned to Beijing, there were only two cars left. Worthless sundries..."

   "Then why didn't you tell me?! Your ancestors love you the most, definitely...definitely..."

  Speaking halfway through, Jia Baoyu suddenly remembered that the use of this amount of silver to repair the other courtyard was afraid that it was also approved by Jia's mother and could not be said for a while.

   Lin Daiyu smiled bitterly: "That's hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. How many pairs of white eyes are staring red. The ancestors love me again. Could it be possible to offend all this family?"

   Seeing Lin Daiyu's face full of misery, a small person, she seems to have been used to seeing the world's scorching coolness, Jia Baoyu's heart became more bored and irritable, but she didn't know how to vent it.

   After a while, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped his face!

   slap~

   With just one click, half of his cheek swelled up!

   Jia Baoyu seemed to feel no pain, and slapped his baby face again.

   "What are you doing?!"

   Daiyu hurriedly grabbed his arm and said anxiously: "It's not your fault!"

   "Who said it was not my fault?!"

Jia Baoyu burst into tears, and cried, "If I am a capable person, how dare they settle the matter without asking us?! If I am a capable person, I will never let it go. They bully you like this, but they can't do anything about it!"

Seeing such self-blaming him, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but move her true feelings, holding Baoyu's hand, and sternly said: "This matter was originally a big rock that was stuffy in my chest, but today I see you facing me like this. My heart has opened up a lot, and it doesn’t matter what money is not.”

   then smiled again: "If these six hundred thousand taels of silver can be saved from the crime of deceiving the king, I think it is worth it!"

   Talking about the palace, there is only one gem in his eyes!

   "Sister Lin..."

   Jia Baoyu was so touched that he wanted to marry her right away, but when he thought of the saying of "one man and two families", his heart felt like a knife cut. ‘

"correct."

   Lin Daiyu was half really curious, half to change the subject and asked: "Where did you hear these words?"

   Baoyu stubbornly said: "I...I promised that I will never betray her."

   "If you don't tell me, I can guess it!"

   Lin Daiyu twisted her index finger, tapped on her lips lightly, and suddenly blurted out: "It's the second brother of the Sun family, right?!"

   "Second Brother Sun?"

   Jia Baoyu was taken aback, and said: "He... he also knows about this?"

Looking at his expression, Lin Daiyu knew that she had guessed wrong, but she still nodded and said, "He came back from Yangzhou with Brother Lian at the beginning. How could these tricks have been hidden from him? It is precisely because he knew that his father's money was lost. It was hollowed out. Sister Rong sent a bunch of golden leaves on my birthday."

   As she said, she couldn't help but glared at Baoyu, and said angrily: "At that time, you said Sister Rong was a village custom, and she would only give away useless things!"

   Jia Baoyu scratched his head awkwardly, and suddenly said, "I understand! Brother Sun asked me to check the accounts, but I wanted to find out for myself!"

   Lin Daiyu suspiciously asked, "Second Brother Sun family asked you to check the accounts? What's the matter?"

   Jia Baoyu hurriedly talked about the cause and effect.

   After listening, Daiyu pondered for a while, but shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Besides, he may not know that the silver has been misappropriated - I see, this seems to be aimed at others."

   "For others? What other people?"

   "Naturally they are the good slaves in your family who can eat people without spitting out bones."

   Lin Daiyu raised her mouth and said disdainfully: "I heard Sister Rong say that when the Sun brothers were playing the autumn wind in Rongguo Mansion, they were wronged by many of your servants!"

   "What happened?"

   Jia Baoyu's eyes widened ~lightnovelpub.net~ with a look of disbelief: "The Sun family is our family friend, so do people have such courage?"

   "Self-friends?"

   Lin Daiyu snorted, taking herself as an example, but she was afraid that Baoyu would make a fuss, so she hesitated and said, "Don't say it's a family friend, do you remember Jiao Da from the East Mansion?"

   "Could it be the old man who likes to swear when he drinks too much?"

   "Old man?"

   Lin Daiyu glared at him and said, "If he hadn't given up his life and brought Duke Ning back from the battlefield, I am afraid that there would be no Ning Guofu at all!"

   "I heard that when he escaped back, he had no food to eat. He went hungry to steal something for the master to eat; there was no water to drink, he drank horse urine by himself, and gave the master half the bowl of water to drink!"

   "When Old Ning Guogong was alive, he was a little better of Jiao Da than his son-but now what? Once he lost his support, even the second-class slaves in the mansion dared to violate him!"

   "When the brothers of the Sun family fell into despair, in the eyes of these minions of your family, I was afraid that they were far worse than that Jiao Da!"

Lin Daiyu said here, after a short pause, she pulled back to the main topic: "I guess, what the second brother of the Sun family may have learned, knowing that these good minions of your family have used their hands and feet while repairing the garden, but it is inconvenient. It’s only when it’s broken to coax you fool to poke a hornet’s nest."

   "This is not a joke, I think you still do it, don't be serious..."

"Do not!"

She was still waiting to persuade, but Jia Baoyu was already furious. He gritted his teeth and said swearingly: "I will check this out! No matter it is that slave who is greedy for money, I want him to vomit a lot of money. !"

   The money for'selling one's body' has been greeted by the minions, no wonder he is so angry.
