dream of red mansion

Page 477

When they came to Tanchun's room again, Jia Qing had something in mind, and when everyone sat down to drink tea, he said, "Sister Bao, on the way here just now, you said that your second uncle was ill. What is the reason?" ?”

Jia Qing didn't care about Xue Xiao's life or death, anyway, there are so many short-lived people in the world. Speaking of which, except for the maid, the seven people in the house, except for Jia Baoyu and Jia Tanchun's parents, are all children of single parents. .....

Everyone saw Xue Baochai's calm demeanor and seldom heard her mention her family affairs.Now that Jia Qing asked such a question, everyone became quiet.

Xue Baochai said: "I don't know exactly what the reason is. I heard my brother come back and said that because my second uncle has been traveling outside the territory for many years, he has contracted many diseases on his body. Now it is unbearable when it comes out together. "

"Then why did your second uncle come to Beijing?"

Jia Qing knew very well that in the original novel, Xue Xiao definitely did not die in the capital.Xue Baoqin's brother and sister also went to Beijing to join Aunt Xue after his death, and let Xue Baoqin be married by the way.

Xue Baochai didn't quite understand why Jia Qing cared so much about his second uncle.He suddenly remembered that his second uncle had met Jia Qing once in Yangzhou, and then he understood, so he said: "My second uncle came to Beijing for my sister's marriage."

"younger sister?"

Jia Baoyu said suddenly.He didn't care about what Jia Qing and Xue Baochai said before, but now he suddenly heard Xue Baochai mention the word "sister", he suddenly regained his energy, and asked: "Sister Bao, do you have a younger sister?"

With Sister Bao's character, her younger sister must also be a stunning girl. Alas, it's a pity that they started talking about marriage.

Jia Baoyu sighed inwardly.

Jia Qing despised Jia Baoyu once, and said, "I don't know if your sister's marriage is settled?"

Xue Baochai glanced at the two brothers in front of her indifferently, and suddenly thought in her heart, it is not true that Jia Qing cares about her second uncle, but it is her sister who really cares!

However, where did Jia Qing know about her sister?

"Originally, it was all decided, but the second uncle suddenly fell ill, and this matter was delayed."

Jia Baoyu suddenly became happy again, and said, "Since that's the case, why doesn't Sister Bao take her to our house as a guest?"

Jia Baoyu only wanted to see what Xue Baochai's younger sister looked like in his eyes, but he forgot that her father had just been seriously ill, but you were so excited to take her to your house to play...

Xue Baochai said: "My elder brother bought my second uncle's boat back to Nanjing yesterday, and is going to personally send him back to his hometown to recuperate the next day."

Jia Baoyu paused, and tentatively suggested: "How about asking Brother Xue to send Uncle Shi back, sister Bao, how about keeping her?"

Xue Baochai's face did not change, but he did not answer.

Seeing this, Jia Qing immediately jumped out and said, "Second Brother Bao, you are too ignorant of temperament. The relationship between father and daughter is stronger than anything else. How can you say such a thing?"

Jia Baoyu smiled embarrassingly, and realized that he might have offended Xue Baochai a little bit.

Jia Qing took the opportunity to step on Jia Baoyu, and made a good impression in front of Xue Baochai once. Maybe he got carried away because of his complacency, then turned his head and said: "But sister Bao, if Uncle Shi's illness is cured, sister Bao remember to pick up my little cousin as soon as possible." Come and play."

Xue Baochai stared blankly at Jia Qing, then at Jia Baoyu.As for the genes of the Jia family, a trace of doubt arises...

......

"drive."

On the ancient road of the imperial city, several fine horses advanced rapidly.

"Master, please slow down."

"Haha, after staying in that ghostly place for so long, I can go home soon, why don't you let me have a good time?"

The young man in the lead ignored the advice of his followers, but whipped the horse's buttocks. The horse neighed slightly, and seemed to feel the master's happy mood.

The roads in the imperial city are wide, and pedestrians can tell at a glance that these people are of extraordinary status, so they all get out of the way in advance, and the whole group can pass without hindrance.

Fast forward to a section of Judefang, and there are slightly more people than other places.But the young man probably saw that he would be home soon, and he was in a happy mood, so he didn't think too much about it, and when he was about to change lanes, he didn't slow down and ran straight over.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned the aisle, I found that there were many temporary stalls here, and many people were picking goods there, so it took up less than half of the road.

The unborn horse was extremely fast, and before turning in time, it rushed towards the crowd.

The shoppers saw a few fast horses rushing out of the corner of the street, they were shocked and hurriedly avoided them.The young man also tried his best to rein in the horse, but his technique was not very good. Although the horse was blocked, it was still running forward.

Seeing that the people in front all moved away, the young man had not had time to breathe a sigh of relief when he suddenly saw a woman carrying her child in front of a booth after the crowd moved away, and she seemed to be late to the danger. hindsight.

"Get out of the way!!"

The young man shouted loudly, the woman had already seen the fast horse running towards her, her complexion turned pale for a moment, and there was no way she could avoid it.

"Damn it!" The young man pulled the rein of the horse with all his strength, barely raising the horse's front hooves in front of the woman.

The woman wanted to avoid the horse's hoof that was about to fall, but when she moved her body, she fell directly to the ground.

In the nick of time, an extremely fast figure finally arrived, stretched out his hands and accurately grasped the horse's front hooves, but the force of the horse's pedaling was so heavy, and he was so desperate that he couldn't stop him, so he knelt down on the ground. However, he did not give up, and still held on to the horse's hoof...

The screen finally fell silent.

"Wow! Mom..."

The cries of the child who fell next to her awakened the woman, and after hurriedly checking that her child was fine, the fortunate woman ignored the snorting of the horse that was almost clinging to her face, got up and said to the man again and again: "Thank you!" Engong, thank you, Engong..."

And stretched out his hand to help the man up.

The passers-by who witnessed all this saw that the mother and child were safe and couldn't help applauding the wonderful performance of the warrior.But he immediately realized something was wrong, because the woman couldn't help the warrior at all, and the warrior's face was extremely painful...

"Master, are you alright?!"

The young man's escort finally caught up, but the first thing he cared about was the young man's safety.

But he saw the young man sitting on the horseback in a daze, his eyes were only on the people under the horse.The guard was sure that his young master was fine, so he looked at the man who subdued the horse. The first thing he saw was the blood slowly flowing on the ground...

Whose brat...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The one who came to the rescue was a strong man in gray clothes. At this time, he could no longer stand up.

It turned out that although he hugged the horse's legs just now, one of the horse's iron hooves stepped on his kneeling thigh when it fell.Being scratched by the hard and sharp iron hoof almost never broke his leg in half.

"Engong, how are you..." The woman was very anxious, and she also saw that the gray man was injured.

The surrounding onlookers gathered around, pointing and pointing.

"Master, you go first, I will leave this place to the young one."

There were two people following the young man, and one of them suggested that he was afraid of hurting the young man due to the anger of the crowd.

The young man on the horse thought for a while, and didn't want to face the people's pointing and pointing, so he was a little moved, and said, "Then how much money do you need to send him to the hospital, and I will give it to you later."

As he said that, he was about to turn the horse's head.

The woman didn't dare to stop her, so she could only give them a bitter look.
