Chapter 752 Finding Jade [Part 2]

It would have been fine on a normal day, but Aunt Xue was already very angry, so Tanchun's words sounded to her like she was clearly suspecting that Xue Jiamei had stolen Baoyu's belongings. How could she endure this?

Immediately, he stood up and slapped the case. He glared at Tanchun with a trembling look and said: "Why, his jade is lost and it belongs to our family?! If you have real evidence, show it and you can go to the official!"

Although Tanchun had long expected that this trip would not go smoothly, he was still shocked by Aunt Xue's angry eyes.

After all, this wife of the in-laws has always been a kind-hearted woman, and she only has a frown on her face when she encounters anything. This is the first time I have seen her like this - but thinking about what Baoyu did, it is not incomprehensible that she would be furious.

Alas~

Sister Feng had been in power for so long and everything was peaceful, so why did she become so troubled as soon as she became the head of the family?

But it is precisely because of this that Tanchun must try her best to maintain the dignity of Rongguo Mansion. Otherwise, she can't even compare to Wang Xifeng, so how can she claim to be a woman who is not inferior to men?

So he hurriedly explained: "Auntie misunderstood. We didn't mean anything else. We just thought that maybe he was drunk that day and randomly threw the jade somewhere - as you know, that thing was brought in the womb and has been around since childhood.

I have never been away from my body since I was a child. Now that I have lost it suddenly, the whole family has been thrown into chaos. Please forgive me for any rudeness or disrespect."

With that said, he bowed deeply to Aunt Xue.

This explanation and attitude were reasonable. Aunt Xue barely suppressed her anger and gritted her teeth and said: "I'm not blaming you, but... hum~ Where is Baoyu? He lost the jade himself, so he didn't look for it. It's embarrassing.

Pushing it on my sister’s head? But Wenlong, who is so unlucky, still knows how to protect his sister!”

"My second brother has always been very caring and considerate to me."

Tanchun said hurriedly: "The reason why I recommended myself is because he was taught by his wife at home and had some difficulty in moving for a while, so..."

Unexpectedly, Aunt Xue shook her head like a rattle: "If my brother-in-law was the one who took action, how could your wife be so cruel? This matter has nothing to do with you. You can let him come and find it himself if he has the ability!"

She may not know what else is going on, but she knows her sister very well.

Seeing that what she said was unquestionable, Tanchun had no choice but to sigh and say goodbye and leave - not that there was nothing she could do, but she also hoped to use these words to bring Baoyu to Aunt Xue.

Didn’t you have no way to admit your mistakes before?

Now it’s time to adopt the attitude of asking for forgiveness!

After leaving Xue's house, She Yue immediately greeted her and asked with concern: "Why did the girl come out so quickly? But my wife didn't let us go in to search?"

Tanchun shook his head with a heavy face and said, "Auntie said, since the second brother lost it himself, let him find it by himself."

"Let him find it by himself?"

She Yue's face turned bitter when she heard this: "But now he..."

Halfway through the sentence, the attacker pulled his arm away and lectured: "The third girl naturally has the third girl's plan. Why are you following along to join in the fun?"

"What does it mean to join in the fun?"

She Yue retorted dissatisfiedly: "We don't care about the second master's affairs, who cares? My sister, why does she seem to be a different person recently? You couldn't say such sarcastic words before!"

Xiren was silent, and she didn't bother to argue with She Yue. She had instilled these things into She Yue and others, but now she seemed to be the first to rebel...

Not to mention the bickering between the two maids.

However, he said that Tanchun had a turbulent journey back home. He first revealed that he had gained nothing along the way and the Jiao family, and then repeated Aunt Xue's request and the reason why he thought this was a good opportunity.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang immediately ordered someone to bring the family law, and handed it directly to the attacker and said: "You will take Baoyu to Xue's house to bear a thorn to plead guilty. If he disobeys, you can just beat him with this thing - if it is an in-law

If my wife is not satisfied, please just use this family law to punish me!"

After a pause, he gritted his teeth and added: "If you dare to violate the law, I will ask you first!"

This time she was really cruel and wanted to make Baoyu have a long memory.

After Xiren had no choice but to accept the order, she sat back on the chair and was silent for a long time. Then she suddenly asked, "When will Brother Lang come back from leave?"

Maybe it's time to consider that enemy's suggestion.

…………

But he said that Xiren had obtained the "Sword of Shangfang" and hurried back to Yihong Courtyard. He saw Jia Baoyu lying on the bed with a look of lovelessness, with a clear slap mark on the right half of his face. He didn't know it was Wang.

The beating my wife gave me was given by Jia Zheng.

Xiren subconsciously wanted to express some concern, but immediately gave up this meaningless behavior, pretended not to see the slap mark, raised the family law in his hand and said: "How come the second master still has the heart to sleep? Come with me,

My wife asked me to escort you to the Xue family with family law, so that you can plead guilty to your in-laws!"

Jia Baoyu looked at the tricks she had in hand and said angrily: "It's just a stick. It's not like the Xue family doesn't have anything."

"But it means my wife!"

Xiren raised the family law without any pretense: "My wife also said that if the second master refuses to go, let us beat him until the second master is willing to go."

Baoyu didn't react at first, but when he saw the attacker ready to fight, he quickly got up and walked out while complaining angrily: "Lian Po went on his own, and I didn't hear that anyone forced him to go to the Jingjing."

Please forgive me!"

Seeing that he had given in, Xiren ignored his complaints.

He just silently followed Baoyu and returned to Zijin Street with him.

The whole journey was silent.

The closer he got to Zijin Street, the more Jia Baoyu became uneasy like a hairless monkey.

She Yue was at the side, seeing that the attacker remained silent, she couldn't help but stepped forward and reminded him: "Second Master, when you go in, take this family method with you. When you see the wife, kneel down in front of her and take this thing with both hands."

Just offer it."

After a pause, he added: "Be sure to remember the principle of running away if you are too young or too big."

"It's a small matter of acceptance but a big departure."

Baoyu corrected listlessly. Compared with the physical pain, he was actually more afraid of facing Aunt Xue and Baochai - even though he had been trying to come to apologize for the past two days, he was actually not prepared to face it at all.

But when things have reached this point, no matter how overwhelmed you are, you can only bite the bullet.

At the same time, the Xue family's back house.

Baochai was still sitting behind the desk, but what she was holding in her hand was no longer poetry, but the gold necklace she had carried with her all year round.

Just now, Aunt Xue told her about Baoyu's loss of jade, and because she was so angry, she even suggested that she should simply refute Concubine Xiande's reputation and resolutely not participate in Concubine Yuan's wedding.

But Baochai finally rationally refused.

After Aunt Xue left, she subconsciously took off the gold collar and started rubbing it.

Ying'er watched for a long time and vaguely guessed what the girl was thinking.

Because it was engraved with the words "Never leave, forever." She originally said that the girl's necklace and Baoyu's jade were a pair, but she didn't want to lose the jade just after they got married.

Does this mean that the fate between the two is completely over?

Just when Ying'er was secretly thinking about it, a little maid suddenly reported outside that her uncle was here and she brought a stick with her.

"how?!"

Ying'er was shocked when she heard this and blurted out: "Is he still going to commit murder?!"

"That's not true."

The little maid hurriedly explained: "It is said that the family law was brought from Rongguo Mansion and asked my wife to use it to punish my uncle."

Ying'er breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that she was not the one who committed the crime, but was the one asking for forgiveness.

However, after hearing what she said about her uncle, Ying'er subconsciously wanted to correct her, but felt that it was a waste of effort - after all, not everyone knew that the girl had been secretly communicating with Uncle Jiao.

So he ordered: "Go over and keep an eye on it. If there is any sign of trouble, ask someone to come back and report it immediately!"

The little maid agreed, feeling that she had a heavy responsibility on her shoulders, and immediately ran away to the front yard and living room.

When she arrived, Baoyu just happened to kneel in front of Aunt Xue, holding the family law high above her head.

Aunt Xue did not reach out to pick it up, but just gritted her teeth and asked: "Let me ask you, is there something I can't do to you, or is it that your sister Bao owes you? You just went straight to our mother and daughter one by one.

Stab in both hearts?!"

Baoyu lowered her head when she was told that she didn't dare to look at Aunt Xue at all.

Seeing his useless look and thinking about what he did two days ago, Aunt Xue became even more disappointed - he was only very bold in those messy things. What else could this be if it wasn't a natural disaster?

!

Thinking of this, she angrily grabbed the guy and tried to beat him up, but before the stick fell, Baoyu skillfully held his head and balled it up. Such a funny look made Aunt Xue beat him repeatedly to vent her anger.

All interest is gone.

He threw the Jia family's treasure to the ground and said dejectedly: "Look for it, look for it, whether you can find it or not, don't let me see you again!"

Jia Baoyu also knew that his conditioned reflex was very embarrassing, so he hurriedly covered his face and left without thinking too much.

Aunt Xue had no intention of embarrassing him any more, so Xiren Sheyue and other accompanying maids were allowed to come in and search with him.

Since Xiren's attitude was not very positive, She Yue was the main force in directing the search. Baoyu, under her guidance, recalled what he had done in Xue Mansion.

The more he thought about his stupid behavior that night, the more Jia Baoyu felt ashamed and angry. He didn't know how his stupidity was evaluated until he inadvertently saw several tabloids at Jiao's house.

If Baoyu was a time traveler, he would definitely use the word "social death" to describe his current situation.

With this idea in mind, Jia Baoyu saw a well in the corner, and subconsciously went up to it. While looking in, he thought that if he jumped into the well, it would be over...

"Second Master?"

At this time, She Yue called out, which frightened him all over. Although he did not fall in, he still took a few steps back and looked at the mouth of the well in shock.

How could She Yue know what he was thinking?

At that moment, I thought the thing had fallen into the well, so I hurriedly came to the wellhead and peered down while saying hurriedly: "The jade fell into the well? How, how can I fish it out? If it's summer, there are still options.

If you are brave, try to tie it on, but the weather is so cold, I'm afraid it will freeze you to death if it touches the water!"

She was stamping her feet anxiously, but she heard Baoyu murmur: "This water is indeed too cold, too cold."

"What?"

"It's nothing, it probably didn't fall here."

After hearing this, She Yue breathed a sigh of relief at first, and then saw Baoyu running away as if avoiding a plague, and couldn't help but wonder: "Second Master, what's going on?"

"Who knows."

Xiren twitched the corner of his mouth expressionlessly: "Maybe he remembered something again."

Unexpectedly, these words fell into Baoyu's ears along the wind.

Baoyu, who had just left the word "seeking death" behind his mind, suddenly felt that he had found a path that was more suitable for him.

Yes, no wonder so many people want to become a monk and escape from the world. They can not only stay away from the entanglements of love and hate in the world, but also avoid the pain of seeking death.

He unconsciously took off his hat, and under the strange gazes of everyone, he thoughtfully stroked his stubbled head.

"Second Master!"

Seeing this, She Yue hurriedly stepped forward to put the hat back, and scolded the people around her: "What do you think? The second master is doing everything he can to calm down the second mistress, and his hair is falling out in a hurry, so he changed his mind."

It’s like this!”

Naturally, it was impossible for everyone to believe this far-fetched explanation, but no one would get into trouble at this time, so they all lowered their heads and pretended to search seriously.

She Yue just breathed a sigh of relief when suddenly Baoyu jumped three feet high: "I'm not looking for you anymore, I'm not looking for you anymore! Does any of you know where Sister Bao is? I'm going to find her!"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what kind of madness Baoyu was in. Didn't he say that the second mistress refused to see him? What did he want to do when he came over so boldly?

She Yue was afraid that he would cause trouble again, so she hurriedly grabbed his arm and said anxiously: "Second Master, what do you want to do again?!"

"It's nothing, I just figured out that committing suicide and becoming a monk are the same!"

With that said, he threw away She Yue and ran away.

She Yue was stunned for a moment before she realized what crazy words he had just said. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she hurriedly chased after him.

But no matter how bad Baoyu was, he was still a man, so he took advantage of her being dazed for a while and swung around to get them far away.

Along the way he met the maids of the Xue family, and when they stopped him, he asked Xue Baochai where he lived. He walked all the way and asked, and after going round and round, he actually arrived at the door of Baochai's boudoir.

I saw him standing in front of the door, taking a deep breath, and yelling inside: "Sister Bao, I have figured it out now. Instead of continuing to annoy you, it is better to escape into Buddhism and be pure and comfortable together -

- My sister is beautiful and beautiful, but I am just sick and prone to disasters. My sister should be matched with a better man. Today you can simply write a divorce letter and divorce me!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder rolling from the sky, and there was silence everywhere.

Baoyu waited for a while, but when there was no movement inside, he cleared his throat and shouted again. Suddenly, the door of the main room opened, and Xue Baochai walked out with a quick stride, with a pretty face and a cold face. Before Baoyu could say anything, he waved the left side of his face.

It's just a slap in the face!
