It's a good "Journey to the West", but Daiyu found countless problems.
The sound of fighting outside the house seemed to have a great impact on the two siblings at the table. Grandma Wang and the two maids looked outside the door from time to time. Only Jia Cong saw Daiyu's hands tightly hidden in her sleeves. Clutching the handkerchief.
He imitated the storyteller and told the story of Journey to the West section by section, especially when it came to the chapter about the great sage Luan Peach stealing elixirs and rebelling against the gods of the Heavenly Palace to catch monsters. Grandma Wang closed the door in a panic. He whispered: "Girl, Third Master, a thief has come to the inn!"
There was a trace of panic in Daiyu's eyes after hearing the letter. She raised her eyebrows and was about to say something, when she saw Jia Cong picked up the special Yanling knife, brushed a strand of hair that had fallen off her forehead, and said in a funny way: "Sister Lin, feel at ease." , as long as I am here, I will never let you hurt you!"
Phew!
Daiyu, who was still panicking at first, was teased like this by Jia Cong, and her panic was immediately reduced by three points, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Clang…
The fighting outside the building has not stopped, and the fighting inside the inn has become more and more intense.
Jia Cong looked out through the crack in the door and saw Jia Lian walking towards him with a mother and daughter. He quickly opened the door: "Second brother, second brother, what's going on? Isn't it about the soldiers and horses of Huai'an Mansion?" Will you come?"
Jia Lian did not rush to answer his question, but welcomed the mother and daughter into the house, closed the door and introduced to Daiyu and others: "Cousin, this is the mistress of the Xue family in Jinling and the aunt of your sister-in-law Feng. Sister Xue family."
Then he dragged Jia Cong back, who was still lying at the crack of the door looking out, and introduced to the Xue family mother and daughter: "Aunt, this is my third brother Jia Cong. This is the daughter of my nephew's aunt, whose surname is Lin. My uncle is now She is traveling to Yangzhou as an official, and this trip south is to send her back to visit her uncle."
This relationship is a bit messy!
Why can't Jia Cong's head obviously turn around? Mrs. Xue is Wang Xifeng's aunt, and she is also Yuanchun and Baoyu's aunt, so how should he be called?
"Clang!"
Just when Jia Cong couldn't figure out this complicated relationship, a loud noise came from outside the house. Jia Lian became obviously nervous, and the veins in the hand holding the handle of the knife suddenly appeared.
"Brother Cong, please protect my aunt and the others here and don't go out and cause trouble."
Jia Lian had no time to explain any more. He solemnly pressed Jia Cong's head and said, "I left a few people at the stairs on the second floor. Don't run around..."
He was really afraid that this kid would run out again, because the people from Huai'an Mansion did not show up in time, which caused loopholes in the original plan. The defense line was in danger and the manpower was unknown.
Jia Lian had no choice but to gather the women and children for protection, fearing that his father's precious little son and the only Miaomiao of the Lin family would be in danger.
As for Xue Pan? The fat boy is currently staying in the corner of Jia She's room, shivering.
There were many outsiders in the house, and there were sounds of fighting outside and inside the building. Jia Cong had no time to tell Daiyu the story of the stone monkey, and kept lying on the crack in the door to look out.
Unfortunately, the battle should still be on the first floor. Apart from a few guards with swords, there were only a few lanterns emitting a faint light outside.
Since Daiyu came to Beijing at the age of six, she has rarely seen outsiders in the past three years, except for occasionally accompanying the old lady out of the house to offer incense.
At this time, there were two strangers sitting in front of him, which made him feel a little awkward. He looked to Jia Cong for help several times, but unexpectedly, Jia Cong was busy observing the battle situation outside.
Daiyu frowned and twisted the handkerchief in her hand into a twist, just like Jia Cong did. Sister Lin angrily twisted the third master Cong!
"Miss Lin, your respected father is Mr. Lin, the Yangzhou Salt Patrol Censor, right? I recognize your mother. I often visited Rongguo Mansion when I was a child. Twenty years have passed in a flash."
Mrs. Xue is soft-spoken and has almost the same temperament as her niece Wang Xifeng. She looks a bit like a typical Jiangnan woman.
Daiyu raised her eyes and saw that although Mrs. Xue had a worried look on her face, she still looked at her tenderly. She couldn't help but feel good about her and responded softly: "Auntie also knows my mother?"
"Silly boy, my mother's family and your uncle's family have been close relatives for generations. My sister is your second aunt, and she often interacted with your mother when she was a child..."
Mrs. Xue has a gentle and gentle temperament. She briefly talked about one or two childhood events and immediately got closer to Daiyu.
When Mrs. Xue said that she had a son who was sent to Jia She, Daiyu shouted to Jia Cong who was standing at the crack of the door: "Brother Cong..."
"Huh? It's at my father's place, then it's fine. My father can easily defeat ten thieves by himself, not to mention that before leaving the capital, my uncle, the King of Ji, lent his soldiers to my father!"
Jia Cong saw that he could not see any specific situation at the crack of the door, so he had to return to the table and play with the Yan Ling Dao in his hand.
"Don't worry, I'm here and I will protect you!"
Uh-huh!
The Yan Ling knife was pulled out suddenly, a cold light flashed under the light of the lamp, Jia Cong flicked the blade lightly, and there was a crisp sound, followed by a buzzing echo.
"My broadsword is thirsty!"
Boom!
Before Jia Cong's mischief was completely completed, Dai Yu had a brain breakdown and put an end to it. Dai Yu looked like an elder sister and a mother, and explained to Mrs. Xue and Baochai with an apology: "Brother Cong has been like this since he was a child. , he is making us happy."
Looking at Jia Cong who was hiding with his head in his arms, Mrs. Xue shook her head and said, "Brother Cong is a good boy. He is not like me, who always causes trouble."
"You see that your aunt is a loving mother. You must be reluctant to beat the Xue brothers. Let me tell you, this is to teach children that a filial son will emerge from the stick. Look at me, if my father doesn't beat me for three to five days, I will feel sick all over. Comfortable……"
Jia Cong looked like an old parent and actually discussed parenting with Mrs. Xue, forcing Daiyu to resort to a trick: "Brother Cong, have you finished your homework for today?"
Mrs. Xue was still a little unsure of how to respond to Jia Cong's seemingly absurd words, but suddenly she remembered the letter that her sister, Mrs. Wang, had written to her.
The letter contained many complaints about the old lady's doting on Jia Baoyu. At the same time, she was a little unsure about Jia Zheng's parenting methods, which included sticks and sticks, so she wanted to seek advice from herself.
To be honest, Mrs. Xue had never thought about teaching Xue Pan to become a talented person, but her husband died of illness early, and she felt sorry for the only male heir in the Xue family room, and she really couldn't bear to be cruel.
"Sister Lin, why have you become like this? Have you been changed into a soul? Are you possessed by the third sister?"
Among the sisters in the house, except for the third sister Tanchun who often persuaded herself and Jia Huan to study hard, the second sister Yingchun always took care of herself in a gentle and amiable manner and never said a harsh word.
Daiyu wasn't like this before. Apart from being teased by herself and grinding her teeth, she never used homework to coerce herself, right?
Especially Master Bao gets a headache when he hears about studying. When the brothers and sisters in Rongguo Mansion are together, they will never say a word without mentioning studying.
After Jia Cong said this, he ran to the door, because he had already seen Daiyu's clenched fists, and he smiled: "Teacher Lin, let's spare the students today. It's midnight, let's say goodbye." Things are better!"
