Chapter 96: Four consecutive drinks of Baoyu at the Hehuan Banquet; Chiaki Yen Spring Two Comforting Hearts (4)

Baoyu and Xiangling rode back to Rongguo Mansion first. The two entered the Grand View Garden, Baoyu sent Xiangling to Yihong Courtyard, and saw Xiangling enter from a distance, so he went around the south corner. Out of the corner gate, turn around, and enter the ancestral hall of the Jia family.

Mingyan took a few people, and was waiting for the gate, when he saw Baoyu coming, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Second master, we thought we invited Uncle Jiao over!" Right now, it's resting in the hug. ”

Baoyu nodded, "Sister-in-law Zhen sent a banquet over?" ”

Mingyan said, "I sent a jar of wine, and a few cold dishes, and the hot one said that the second master used it, and sent us to take it now." ”

Baoyu said, "The eldest sister-in-law thinks that the fruit is appropriate, so you can bring a few people and take it." It is placed under the eaves of the inner porch. Mingyan was instructed and beckoned a few people to go.

As soon as Mingyan left, Baoyu was not in a hurry, entered the gate, walked along the Yong Road, stood still in the middle, and looked up. Unlike the solemn and solemn voice, mixed with this sonorous sound of gold and jade, there was a peaceful atmosphere in the ancestral hall at this time. After the pines and cypresses on both sides, walk along the eaves of the corridor to the main hall. When Jiao Da and the others saw it, they hurriedly went out of the hugging building to greet them. Just salute, but silent. Baoyu nodded, motioned for them to wait under the eaves of the porch, and entered the main hall by himself.

Baoyu has always felt in his heart that the original "night banquet omen and sad sound" was a problem with this ancestral hall. At this time, since he had a chance, he had to take a good look, and as for what he said, he didn't care. I don't take it to heart either. Moreover, it was also said that women were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, but just now, Jia's mother came in with a large number of female dependents. It was Baoqin and other outsiders who also came in. So what else is there to say?

Standing in the center of the main hall, he looked up at the statue of Ning Rong's second prince wearing a python waist jade, and then looked at the statues of the ancestors of the Jia family on both sides. Nothing special. When he saw that the incense was short, he lit the candlestick and inserted it in the censer. Then he walked around the main hall, and he couldn't see why, so Baoyu retreated.

Jiao Da saw Baoyu burning incense coming out, and hurriedly greeted him and said, "Second Master Bao has a heart!" ”

"I don't have any intentions, I just want to come and have a look. Besides, I have long thought about sitting and sitting, and it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, just today! After Baoyu finished speaking, Jiao laughed and smiled, and said to the hoe, "The table is set under the eaves of the inner porch, and when the tea and smoke are taken, let's have two drinks." The hoe listened to Baoyu's words, and without saying anything about it, he moved with the people.

Seeing that it was only himself and Baoyu, Jiao Da hurriedly whispered, "Second Master Bao, here and now, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?" ”

Baoyu said, "I just went in to see it, and there are a lot of things on the table, so I just sat here to accompany me." Besides, let's respect in our hearts and sit with us, where will there be any mistakes? Speaking of which, I'm considered to be above board, don't you smell the smell of wine in the hug building? ”

Jiao Da sighed, "A handful of wild bastards, where do you know any rules." ”

"Rules are dead, people are alive, and we can't always look at them with old eyes. Besides, you're so old, how many more can there be in the house? We know it in our hearts, but we can't ask for it. As he spoke, Baoyu raised his hand to Jiao Da. Jiao Da sighed lightly, but was silent. With the gesture walked over. This kung fu, Mingyan brought people back, brought a few big food boxes, opened them, and saw that it was steaming inside, and there were a lot of dishes. Then ask Baoyu to sit down.

Baoyu smiled and focused on the avenue, "You just have to sit, I'll sit at will." He pointed to the top and said to the tea, "You guys also sit down, you can't eat your own family feast, so I'll be here for a while." ”

Mingyan hurriedly said, "The second master doesn't dare to say that, just this banquet, how big is the face we can eat?" This is also followed by the second master, next to him, but there is no need to think about it. When the words fell, the ten people flattered together, and even Jiao Da nodded playfully.

Baoyu said, "Okay, needless to say, if you want to say it again, I feel numb." Hurry up and sit down, and if the old lady returns, I will follow. ”

Ming Yan said, "The second master is going to send the old lady back." In that case, let's hurry up. As he spoke, Mingyan also came up to make Jiao Da.

Jiao Dadao, "Boy, don't hurt me, there is an ancestor here, and the second master is also standing in front of him, how can I sit here?" It's just that there is a seat, it is the face, and if you say it, it will be this seat! ”

Baoyu smiled, "You always talk about the rules, it wasn't this posture that day, okay, just sit down, it's a little warmer inside." Besides, it's convenient for me to sit here, and I'm going to go over to change the incense later, and since I'm here today, can't I still assign someone else to the past? ”

"Second Master Bao doesn't dare to say this anymore, I'm ashamed." Jiao Da spoke, and felt that Baoyu's words were reasonable, but he still didn't sit upright, pulled down the chair, and sat on the side. When Baoyu saw it, he waved his hand and asked all ten of them to sit down. Mingyan knew Baoyu, so he took the lead in sitting, and the nine saw Mingyan sitting, so they also sitting. Mingyan hurriedly got up again, filled Baoyu Jiao with wine, and then poured some more for the remaining nine people. Then I sat down.

Baoyu held the cup in his hand and said, "I don't need to say anything about it today, and I don't need to say anything about it." We all know it in our hearts, just drink this cup. ”

Jiao Da listened to Baoyu's words, and also picked up the cup, but he glanced at Baoyu, and then looked at the main hall. Baoyu understood and said with a smile, "You just have to eat, what's not over there?" How come you are still so careless at this age? Is it possible, but I have to wait for it to hang up before I understand? ”

Jiao Da was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a smile, "Second Master Bao really doesn't have to say anything." So I'm ashamed! As he spoke, he drank his wine, looked at the main hall, and then sat down.

Baoyu accompanied a cup before saying, "If you always say that you are ashamed, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still." What did I do? Where can it be deserved? Speaking of which, I should thank you for being so old, that generation is. ”

"Second Master Bao doesn't dare to say that, it's not all as it should be!" Jiao Da spoke, trembling and filling Baoyu with wine.

"Should it? Hehe...... Joked, there are many things that should be in this world, but not all of them are as they should be. Saying that, Baoyu shook his head, "Forget it, what are you doing with all this?" Today, the blessings of our ancestors, we should still be happy. ”

Jiao Da nodded, but he didn't say anything, but he drank another glass. When Mingyan saw it, he hurriedly got up to help Jiao Da Bucai, "Don't just worry about wine, this dish is rare today, and even a few of us will follow you to enjoy the mouth." Jiao Da listened to it and smiled at Mingyan, you see how he doesn't dare to be with Baoyu, but in the face of Mingyan, he still has his own pride.

Baoyu said with a smile, "Mingyan said this very much, if it's just a few of you, but you don't have this table right now, even if I say it, it won't work, even if you can get it, I'm afraid I will feel uneasy." ”

Ming Yan said, "We are awake, and this is why Uncle Xie Jiao is tight." Since the last time, listening to hoe medicine talk about Uncle Jiao's ability, it really made a few good students envious, and I often think about when I can do things with Uncle Jiao. ”

Jiao laughed and said, "Where is the ability, the older you are, the more you have experienced, that's it." ”

Baoyu said, "Otherwise, how can you say that there is an old man in the family if there is a treasure, I think this is the truth, not more scriptures, more than I have seen?" It's just that if you really want to elaborate, you can't see anything about it. If you look at it according to me, that was called the ability back then, and in the midst of thousands of troops, I brought my ancestors out......"

Jiao Da didn't wait for Baoyu to finish speaking, and hurriedly said, "The second master doesn't dare to mention this again, as soon as I hear this, I think of the firewood room that day, I am really ashamed." ”

Baoyu said, "I don't want you to be frightened when you are old, I didn't mean to ridicule you, what I said was the truth, and it was also from my heart, even Grandpa Zhang praised it once." Don't talk about it, just talk about your skills......"

"Really?" Jiao Da actually cared about this matter very much in his heart, and when he heard that someone had praised it, he still had a face, and he immediately changed his appearance.

Baoyu nodded, and said to Mingyan a few times, "You are the same, if you are free, you also have to learn something, don't look at the current peaceful and prosperous times, but you can't learn anything in vain." What do you keep saying? ”

Jiao Da nodded, "It's that the second master thinks long-term, and he really sees it, but it's true." Even if it is peaceful, if you want to protect your family, you have to learn more. ”
