Chapter 235 Gourd and Squash
Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu looked at each other with deep affection, their love and affection were almost like a melodramatic drama at eight o'clock.
wrong!
If this really happened in modern times, based on the ages of the two people, this scene would probably only be broadcast on a legal channel, and would have to have a thriller title like "A Premature Love Destroys Two Families."
However, while Sun Shaozong was imagining the plot of the "legal education drama", the two of them finally woke up from their passionate love and thought about the cruelty of reality.
"Brother Sun!"
Jia Baoyu subconsciously asked for help: "Since you have said so much, can you show us a clear way forward?"
Lin Daiyu habitually appealed to herself. She bit her lip and said resolutely: "I will definitely take good care of my body and practice aerobics every day!"
After hearing this, Jia Baoyu was both happy and worried. He was happy that Lin Daiyu was so cheered up for his sake; but he was worried that she was rushing into things and not only would she not be able to recover her health, but would have the opposite effect.
Sun Shaozong imagined a 'Barbie version of Lin Daiyu' and felt a chill all over his body. He shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about whether your physique will be too weak to be replenished. Even if you can be replenished, it may not be a plump physique. It may become like this-"
He gestured casually to a round shape, and spread his hands, saying, "After all, this person is not made of clay, and you can't just add a piece wherever you want. Maybe you were thinking of a gourd, but what grew out might be a squash."
Jia Baoyu followed his gestures and felt a chill in his heart. If a fairy-like girl like Lin Daiyu really became fat like a round pumpkin...
No!
This cannot be done!
He shook his head vigorously to drive this terrible fantasy out of his mind, and then bowed and said, "Second Brother Sun, this method is absolutely not feasible, but I wonder if there is any other way?"
"Any other solution?"
Sun Shaozong spread his hands and said, "The simplest way is for you to become famous at a young age as soon as possible, preferably very famous, so that everyone in Rongguo Mansion dares not and cannot ignore your ideas."
Jia Baoyu was silent for a moment, and murmured to himself: "So I still have to rely on the words 'economic career'..."
A few years ago, he was inspired by Jia Yingchun's marriage and did cheer up for a few days, but how could the bad habits of a young man be overcome so easily?
In addition, during the New Year holidays, many new and exciting things happened one after another, and Jia Baoyu's mind was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, running around among his sisters. How could he think about studying and making progress?
Now that he heard that not only his sisters' marriage depended on him, but even his own marriage depended on these four words, 'economic career', he regretted wasting his time recently, but at the same time he couldn't help feeling annoyed.
I vaguely feel that if I could really turn into a wooden fish and stay with Lin Daiyu in the nunnery forever, it would be a hundred times better than being a human being.
Sun Shaozong's eyes were so sharp that he saw through the man's contradictory psychology at a glance. He couldn't help but say, "Do you think that all the scholars in the world take the imperial examinations because they like it? If that were the case, would they still need to study so hard?"
"Even if you are the emperor of a country, you cannot act based on your likes and dislikes, let alone you, a mere rich and idle person?"
"The more you ask for, the more you have to pay. Of course, there are things that can be gained without any effort, but expecting to gain everything without any effort is pure nonsense!"
"Besides..."
Knock knock knock~
Sun Shaozong was talking to the two of them when suddenly there were a few knocks on the window frame. Then a familiar voice came from outside the window: "Is Master Bao in there? Our grandmother asked you to call Miss Lin over quickly, saying that all the sisters are here, and the birthday girl must be there."
It turned out that Wang Xifeng was waiting in the backyard, but there was no sign of Lin Daiyu, the real person. When she learned that she was brought here by Baoyu, she sent Ping'er to urge her.
After hearing this, the three people in the room looked at each other, and Sun Shaozong waved his hand and said, "Let's go. I have said everything I should say. What the result will be in the future depends on how hard you work."
"Thank you for your advice, second brother!"
Jia Baoyu bowed and prepared to call Daiyu to leave with him.
Unexpectedly, Daiyu walked to the table on her own, picked up the wine pot and filled two cups of liquor, held up one of the cups, and said seriously: "I just said that I would give a toast to Brother Sun."
Having said that, he covered the bottle with his sleeve and drank it all.
Sun Shaozong also hurriedly finished his cup, and saw her bow slightly, turn around and leave. Although her figure was still as weak as a willow in the wind, her determination not to regret was a hundred times greater than that of Jia Baoyu.
Tsk~
Shouldn't we have warned them just now that 'if you want to reap rewards you must work hard, but hard work does not necessarily guarantee rewards', so that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and finally it becomes unbearable and leads to tragedy?
Sun Shaozong thought with some regret, and quietly opened the door curtain a little, looking around in an obscene manner.
At the same time, a figure flashed out from the corner of the wall, rushed in like flying, and crashed into Sun Shaozong's arms.
"ah!"
The man cried out softly and was about to struggle, but when he saw clearly that it was Sun Shaozong, he immediately relaxed and punched him lightly on the chest, saying coquettishly, "Let go, you're scaring me."
This person was Ping'er who had just spoken outside the window.
Just now, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu left the room, but there was no communication between them and Ping'er. Sun Shaozong guessed that she might have hidden herself secretly and was going to say something to him after the two of them left.
Hearing Ping'er's coquettish words, Sun Shaozong chuckled, lowered his head and pecked her on the face, then let go of her slender waist, took a half step back, and asked, "Are you looking for me this time again for what happened last time?"
Ping'er knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for long. Although she had a thousand words to say, she could only pick out the most important few words to say. She nodded and said, "Recently, my grandmother seemed to be planning to use the second young lady as a matchmaker to do business with your family - but the partner she really chose was not you, but your brother."
Wang Xifeng obviously still didn't trust herself, so she would rather let her cheap brother act as a middleman than cooperate with herself directly.
However, no matter how well she calculated, she probably never expected that her cheap elder brother married Jia Yingchun because...
"Besides this, is there anything else?"
Seeing Ping'er shaking her head, Sun Shaozong suddenly laughed and said, "You could have just told me these things directly. Why did you ask me to go to a secluded place that day? Could it be that..."
Ping'er's face immediately turned red, and she stamped her foot heavily and said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
Having said that, he lifted the curtain and ran out.
After hearing the "cat's call" for most of the first month of the first lunar month, Ping'er couldn't help feeling a little itchy, so she made an appointment with Sun Shaozong to meet in a secluded place that day. However, Miaoyu interrupted the plan.
It's just that this thing can be done but cannot be said, so when Sun Shaozong mentioned it, she was so embarrassed that she quickly covered her face and left.
