Chapter 229 Baoyu is angry at Jia Cong
In the original novel, Daiyu actually wrote "Three hundred and sixty days a year, the wind, the frost, the sword are pressing hard!"
In this state of mind, even a good person would get sick, let alone the frail Daiyu? But now, because of Jia Cong's appearance, Daiyu's health has improved a lot. In addition, Lin Ruhai did not die as in the original novel, so Daiyu naturally would not live a miserable life like her original fate.
Daiyu put her thoughts aside and looked at Jia Cong with a blushing face, but she felt sweet in her heart... He really did care about her.
"Master, Master Bao from the West Mansion is here!" At this moment, Jia Zhong walked in and said to Jia Cong.
Jia Cong raised his eyebrows slightly. Baoyu seldom came to the East Palace.
"Third Brother Cong, come out!" Just as he was thinking about it, Baoyu's voice was heard outside.
All the sisters were startled. Baochai and Daiyu frowned. How could Baoyu speak to Cong like this? With Jia Cong's status, what can you do even if you are his elder brother?
Xichun pouted and leaned in Yingchun's arms. The third brother was the person closest to her, and the second brother was not a good person. Although Yingchun looked calm, there was a bit of unhappiness in her eyes. She was indeed dull, but she also knew who was good to her.
Xiangyun and Tanchun were a little worried. Did the second brother Bao have hysteria again? But how could the third brother be provoked now? Moreover, the third brother had shown mercy last time and had not provoked Baoyu in the past few days. Now Baoyu not only came to the door but also spoke rudely. If the third brother got angry, wouldn't there be trouble again?
"Third brother, I'll go take a look. Maybe Second Brother Bao is having hysterics again, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a state."
Daiyu was also afraid that Jia Cong would be angry because of this kind of thing, so she took the initiative to hold Jia Cong's hand, "Third brother."
"No problem!" Jia Cong smiled softly, "How can I be unreasonable? Third sister, Sister Yun, please sit down. How could I not know the temper of Second Brother Bao? Maybe I have offended Second Brother Bao unintentionally."
"Go and bring Baoyu in!" Jia Cong said to Jia Zhong.
This is not the West Mansion, but Jia Cong's Ningzheng Hall. Guarding outside are the eunuchs and maids under Jia Zhong. In the West Mansion, Baoyu can run around as he pleases, but here, without Jia Cong's order, he can't even enter the door.
In fact, it was really a mess outside at the moment.
Baoyu wanted to rush in, but how could the eunuchs let him go? Even if Baoyu scolded him, they would not bother to pay attention. Sheyue and others who followed him also pulled Baoyu back for fear of angering Jia Cong.
Jia Zhong walked out the door and said coldly, "Let Jia Baoyu go and let him in."
The master humiliates the minister and the minister dies. Jia Zhong was already polite by not spitting in Baoyu's face. How could he be nice to him? If Jia Cong had an order, he would teach Jia Baoyu a lesson without hesitation. Even if it was the second wife or the old lady, what could it do? He was a man in the palace, with Xia Shouzhong behind him, and was sent by His Majesty and the Queen. Except for Jia Cong and those close to Jia Cong, they would not take anyone seriously.
Several eunuchs made way and Baoyu rushed inside angrily. Musk Moon and others wanted to follow him, but were stopped again. They could only wait anxiously in the yard, hoping that the old lady would come soon.
Baoyu rushed into the main hall and saw Daiyu and Baochai sitting on either side of Jia Cong. Daiyu was even holding Jia Cong's hand. He immediately became dazed.
"Sister Bao, Sister Lin, don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!" Baoyu shouted, "Third Brother Cong, what shady tricks did you use to make the sisters bewitched by you? Don't say you are a marquis, I am not afraid of you. Today, if you don't let the sisters go back, I will never let you go."
"Second brother Bao, why are you hysterical again?" Tanchun stood up and stopped Baoyu, "I will take you back to the old lady in the West Mansion. If you cause trouble again, the second master will punish you again!"
Daiyu glared at Baoyu and said, "Second Brother Bao, what tricks and magic are you talking about? If you do this again, I will definitely ignore you."
However, Baochai didn't even bother to pay attention to Baoyu. There is a saying that evaluates Baochai: Even though she is heartless, she is still moving. But this is because in the original novel, she has never met anyone who is worthy of her attention.
In her heart, Baoyu was never a good match for her, and everything was just for the Xue family! She was calm and realistic, and marriage was just an accessory.
However, when such a woman is moved, she becomes even more persistent! Just like now, she has already fallen in love with Jia Cong and she can give everything for him...
Jia Cong pulled Daiyu and asked Baoyu with a smile, "I don't know about this. Where did Second Brother Bao get this from?"
"You still don't admit it? If you hadn't bewitched them, how could the sisters have always been around you? In the past, the sisters liked to play with me, but now they don't play with me anymore. They stay in the East Mansion all day."
"Who doesn't play with Second Brother Bao?" Tanchun blocked Baoyu, "It's just these few days, so I just stayed at Third Brother's place occasionally. When we return to the West Mansion, we will play with Second Brother Bao again."
"Third Brother Cong, are you a person who dares to do things but not to take responsibility?" Baoyu said angrily.
"You dare not take the responsibility?" Jia Cong sneered, "A beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman. To be honest with you, Brother Bao, I am indeed attracted to Sister Bao and Sister Lin."
"No, I don't agree. You, the third brother Cong, are just a bastard's son. What do you think you are?" Baoyu was furious.
"Don't agree? I will ask my aunt and Uncle Lin for marriage. Who are you to say you don't agree? Parents' orders and matchmaker's words, which one do you think is right?"
"As for your identity? I am the patriarch of the Jia family and the first-class champion of Daqian. What is your Baoyu?"
Baoyu was speechless and immediately grabbed the jade in front of his chest and threw it to the ground.
However, except for Tanchun who was anxious to find it, no one in the room paid any attention...
"You evil creatures, can't you let me worry less?" Just at this moment, the old lady's voice came from outside the door. Not long after, Wang Xifeng and Yuanyang supported the old lady and walked in.
Jia Cong sat calmly, and the other girls stood up and saluted. Baoyu had a backer, so he went to the old lady and cried, "Madam, the third brother Cong said he wanted to marry Sister Bao and Sister Lin, but I won't allow it!"
Grandmother Jia looked embarrassed, and then said to Wang Xifeng, "Why don't you take your brother back?"
"I don't want to leave. I want to go back with my sisters. My sisters are not allowed to stay in the East Palace." Wang Xifeng and Ping'er came forward to pull him, but Baoyu continued to make a fuss and refused to leave.
Grandmother Jia said to Jia Cong, "Grandson, just skip Baoyu this time. You know he has dementia."
Jia Cong stood up, walked over to help the old lady sit down, and then took the old lady's hand and said, "Old lady, I know you love Baoyu, but it's not right to always suppress some things."
