When Baoyu heard this, he was very surprised. Daishan continued,"Your descendants only know about wealth, honor, clothing, rent, and food taxes. They don't know that my two brothers started a business with their bare hands and risked their lives for it."”
Seeing the servants sharpening their swords, Baoyu asked,""What's the use of great-grandfather grinding him?" Jia Yuan said," This sword is rusted. A calamity is coming. Perhaps the higher-ups have ordered me to lead the divine weapons to the lower realm to quell the chaos. I have to be prepared."”Baoyu picked up the sword and looked at it carefully. It was all sharp and sharp. He couldn't help but brush it. Jia Yuan asked and knew that he knew how to make it, so he ordered him to try dancing in front of the court. Baoyu used the skills of the Great Desolation Mountain and Xianglian Sword Competition to dance unpredictably.
Jia Yuan was overjoyed. This wasn't like a literary scholar, but even stronger than those martial scholars!”The wife of the Duke also loved her great-grandson deeply. At first, she was afraid that Baoyu would be hurt, so she stopped him again and again. Seeing that he was dancing very well, she laughed.
After resting for a while, Daishan took Baoyu to the East Mansion to pay his respects to Jia Yan and Jia Daihua. Dai Hua laughed,"Second Elder Wen only likes to be quiet all day. Now that this elder brother is here, I'm afraid he won't be able to be quiet."”He asked Baoyu about the situation in the capital camp, and Baoyu roughly told him what he knew. Dai Hua sighed." When I was in charge of the capital camp, there was not a day when those soldiers did not train. I didn't expect them to become so lazy. They even raised their hands to the birdcage. It will be troublesome to reorganize them in the future."”
Jia Yan had always looked forward to Baoyu, so he was especially affectionate when he saw him. He said,"You came at the right time. If you were any later, I would have gone on a long journey and wouldn't have been able to see you.”"What's the matter?" asked Baoyu hastily.”"Something will happen in Nanyang soon," Jia Yan said."I will secretly help your Big Brother Zhen to pacify the bandits and make contributions." His abilities are limited, so I can only go there with all my might. If you were at home, this business would be yours, and I wouldn't have to worry.”Jia Jing was also there. When he saw Baoyu become an Individual Immortal, he remembered that he had wasted his life and couldn't help but feel ashamed. Dai Hua took Baoyu to Huifang Garden for a stroll before letting him and Daishan go back.
In the carriage, Baoyu thought to himself,"If I'm like my great-grandfather and grandfather, there's nothing to fear." Why did my father look so angry when he saw me? Just as he was thinking, the carriage had arrived at the West Mansion. Daishan got out of the carriage and ordered someone to bring Baoyu to Grandmother Jia's place, but he went to the study.
Grandmother Jia was talking to Yuanyang and Qingwen. When she saw Baoyu return, she said,"Baoyu, are you hungry? If you like to eat something, call the kitchen to prepare it.”"Old Lady, you don't have to worry about me. Ever since I arrived at the Great Desolation Mountain, I've stopped smoking."”"You've always been at home," Grandmother Jia said."The maids are used to serving you. How did you survive in the wilderness? You muddled around for several years!”Baoyu said,"It's hard to say when we get there. We have to do it ourselves, even chopping wood and fetching water." I don't think it's convenient for the old lady to come here without Sister Feng and Sister Yuanyang.”
Grandmother Jia said,"You're still talking about your Sister Feng. How pitiful!" That year, Brother Zhang Jin and Brother Zhang Yin had reported him to the King of Hell and forcefully intercepted him from the Great Illusionary Land. Those mountains of blades, sword trees, they were all there, forcing him to pay, how could he dare not? Seeing that he was about to be convicted, I begged your great-grandfather to go to the King of Hell to ask for a favor and finally agreed. However, there were many complaints against him, and the King of Hell had asked him a few times, but he didn't dare to use his feelings. According to the law of Yin, he should have been sent to the mud plow hell. At least, he gave face to our residence and went to the ice mountain hell lightly. It was as cold as three to nine days in winter and summer, and he was only allowed to wear a single layer of clothes. His delicate body was always in pain at home. How could he bear this sin?”"I've come back to ask Old Master and Old Lady for advice on how to save Sister Feng." Today, hearing the old lady say this, would Great Grandfather dare to say it a second time?”"You can discuss it with your grandfather later," Grandmother Jia said. I calculated that Little Feng's crime was also about to reach its end. It was not as serious as that Concubine Zhao's crime, so there was no way to save him.”Baoyu quickly asked how Lady Zhao was doing. "I heard that he and that old woman Ma Dao are in the Mud Plow Hell," Grandmother Jia said. Isn't that asking for it?"
"And where is Miaoyu now?" asked Baoyu.”"He lives in the Rain Flower Convent, not far from here," Grandmother Jia said. When he came out of hell, he came here again, but it was not the same as before.”"Miaoyu is an outsider," said Baoyu."What crime has she committed?”"I don't quite understand either," said Grandmother Jia. I heard that because of him, he wasted a heavenly treasure and betrayed Buddhism. His crime was aggravated.”
Yuanyang said," Old Lady, why is the house here exactly the same as home? It must have been copied back then, right?"”"When I first came here, I was also very puzzled." Later on, when he heard them talk about it, he found out that the old Duke had burned and melted the house just like how it was at home. Even the furnishings were not bad. It was just that the Grand View Garden was shortened because it was covered.”"No wonder I dreamt of Fairy Jinghuan that year. She said that she passed by the Ning Mansion and met the two dukes." At that time, I was puzzled. In our East Mansion, where would there be Duke Rong and Duke Ning? So it's here."
"Wait a moment," Grandmother Jia said,"I'm going up to accompany the old ladies in a game of cards." Yuanyang, tidy up the bed curtains for Baoyu and place them in the green gauze cabinet. He even asked Qingwen to accompany him there.”It turned out that the upper room had five rooms and two volumes. Daishan lived in the east room, and the concubines lived in the back room. Grandmother Jia was only in the west room, and the back room was empty. She wished Baoyu well until the evening. Baoyu saw that the bedroom was decorated like a child's scene, so only Xiren was replaced by Qingwen. He thought of Daiyu, who used to live together in a green gauze cupboard. They were young and innocent. Sometimes they were angry, sometimes they were fine. How much affection did they have? Now that they had just separated after their wedding, this feeling was also uncomfortable.
The next day, when he got up and saw Daishan, he reported the matter of Sister Feng. "Lian's daughter-in-law's crime is not light, this is already lenient." Your great-grandfather has always been cautious. It wasn't easy to ask for favors last time, so how could he be willing to do so? I think that King of Hell is also snobbish. He is more respectful to those immortals than when foreign officials meet high officials in the capital. You're finally famous. You have the time to pay a visit to him and try. Maybe he's even more eloquent than us!" Baoyu asked for instructions on how to write the name card and said on his behalf,"If you don't bring up the title of the real person, how can you scare him?”Baoyu understood. Daishan also ordered Baoyu to lend the steward of the carriage and horse to him. That day, he went to the underworld to pay his respects.
That Daoist Master Wen Miao's name card was sent in, and inside it said," Please!”Immediately, the drum beat, the door opened, and the sedan chair flew in. When they approached the hall, they saw a man holding a document. He looked like Qin Zhong and quickly ordered the sedan chair to stop. Qin Zhong also saw Baoyu and hurried to the sedan chair to call him Second Uncle. Baoyu knew that he was here to serve as an official, so it was inconvenient to talk about it at this time. He only asked him to come to Rong Mansion for a meeting in a few days. He got off the sedan chair and entered the government office. The gatekeeper led Baoyu to the living room. The King of Hell was already waiting in front of the curtain. He was also a pale-faced scholar. Those ferocious masks were originally worn temporarily when he was in the hall to ask questions. The host and guest saluted each other and sat down in the hall.
King Yama repeatedly praised him as a real person, and everyone admired him very much. Baoyu could only say a few words. The King of Hell continued,"The Immortal was betrothed by a jade decree, and the heavens have blessed him with grace. How could he have come to this land?"”"I've been wandering about in the clouds and water," said Baoyu."I was just visiting the ancestral court and came here by chance. I've come to pay my respects.”The King of Hell praised Baoyu's filial piety and said,"The Public House is here, so we will do our best to take care of them.”Baoyu thanked him and said,"I still have some other thoughts. I'm sorry to disturb you." Because my sister-in-law, Wang Xifeng, fell into hell and her sentence was about to expire. If you can find a way to explain it, it is really a great virtue.”
"There's an opportunity right now," said the King of Hell. Yesterday, the Heavenly Court issued an edict. Because the hearts of the people in the lower realm are sinister and there are many crimes, the hell cannot accommodate them. It ordered us to review the misdemeanors and reduce their sentences according to the circumstances. If you can help me with my sister-in-law's affairs, please help me.”Baoyu was overjoyed and thanked him again. He also mentioned that Miaoyu had been released from prison and was still in seclusion, begging him to send her back to the Great Illusionary Land. This was a piece of official document. How could he not allow it? He immediately agreed. He sent Baoyu straight to the front of the hall, boarded the sedan chair and said goodbye.
When Baoyu came back, Qingwen changed her clothes and went up to tell Jia Daishan and Grandmother Jia. Everyone was happy. "The size of a person's face is as big as the darkness and light." Daishan smiled. You've gained some knowledge from now on!" Two days later, the King of Hell came to the Rong Mansion to pay his respects to Baoyu. Just as Baoyu was in the East Mansion, his family blocked him as usual.
At that moment, Baoyu returned from the East Mansion to the old lady, who was sitting and talking with Miaoyu. Miaoyu said that she would return to the Great Void after receiving the official document and express her gratitude. Just then, Baoyu walked in. Miaoyu couldn't help but feel ashamed when she saw him. The two red clouds were even more obvious than the last time they met during the game of chess. He also revealed a look of gratitude, but he could not say it out loud. Baoyu said as usual,"Master Miao, you can listen to my teachings at any time during your trip to the Great Void.”
Miao Yu wanted to reply, but she didn't know what to say. Her face alternated between red and white. Just in time, the underworld sent someone to inform the Jia family to pick up Phoenix Sister. Grandmother Jia hurriedly ordered the carriage to be prepared, and Miaoyu took the opportunity to leave.
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that Sister Feng had released them. "Lian's Second Grandmother has always wanted face," said Zhi Qingwen."Now that she's back to see us, let's see how he'll boast."”
Baoyu quickly stopped him with his eyes. Yuanyang said," Granny Feng has been a housekeeper for many years. She has done her best to coax Old Lady and Lady. I think it's not worth it for him to be scolded by everyone behind his back. Now that he had suffered in hell, he should not mention those words again.”
Grandmother Jia had been looking forward to it for a long time, but when she did not see Sister Feng, she was worried and sent a second group of people to inquire. Just as he was giving instructions, he heard the servant girls outside the corridor reply,"Second Madam Lian is here!" "Aren't we at home?" Sister Phoenix asked. This is my first time here, and there's nothing I don't recognize.”Upon entering the house, she saw Grandmother Jia and quickly bowed down. With tears in her eyes, she said,""I didn't expect to see my ancestor.”Grandmother Jia also held him in her arms with tears in her eyes.”
"Old ancestor has always doted on me, how can I have the face to see you again?" The family had been in a mess for a few years. If I wanted to die, it would be over. How would I know that they wouldn't forgive me! He had suffered enough and lost all his face. He had been forced to be strong for the rest of his life! I have no choice. Who asked the ancestor to dote on me wrongly? I can only be raised like a mangy cat or dog. I'll be a rough servant girl for you.”She cried as she spoke. Grandmother Jia heard his pitiful words and cried. "Second Grandmother is finally back. Isn't this a great joy?" Yuanyang advised. Don't make the old lady sad."
Sister Feng quickly wiped her tears away and bowed to everyone. She also thanked Baoyu. "Don't thank me," Baoyu said with a smile,"I was entrusted by someone."”"Who asked you to help me?" asked Sister Feng in surprise.”Yuanyang repeated what Daiyu had said. "Speaking of Sister Lin, I feel even more sorry for him." If you need me in any way, I'll do my best even if it's a small knife.”"The Jade Emperor has already officiated the wedding," said Yuanyang."Do you still need to go and arrange it?"”
When Sister Phoenix heard this, she felt even more embarrassed. Seeing Qingwen standing there, he said to him,"Sister Qingwen, you were too aggrieved that time. It was all Eldest Madam's fault, so I couldn't get a word in. After that, Second Master Bao could not forget you in his heart, and I even sent Liu Wuer away. He said that he wanted to think of Qingwen and only look at Wu 'er.”"Thank you, Second Grandmother." Qingwen sneered."Who am I? How can I keep up with Xiren?"”
At this moment, Sister Feng was embarrassed. Grandmother Jia said to Yuanyang,"Follow Second Grandmother to the back room and tell her to wipe her face and change her clothes." I still have to bring him up to meet the great-grandmother.”So he went with the mandarin ducks. After a moment of makeup, she was still pink and fragrant, as if she had changed into another person. Grandmother Jia smiled." You see, Little Feng hasn't changed after going through so much hardship. You can see that she has a foundation."”Yuanyang wanted to coax Grandmother Jia into liking her, so she also said,"Everyone has a time of trouble. This is nothing. Maybe there will be good fortune in the future!”
Grandmother Jia took Sister Feng to the upper room to see Jia Yuan and his wife. Jia Yuan knew that his family was corrupt and that he was the cause, but he couldn't say it out loud. He only said,"You've suffered enough these few years. It might be good to use this experience as a warning."”Although Sister Feng wasn't very knowledgeable, she understood and felt ashamed. On the other hand, when the Duke's wife saw that he was suffering, she couldn't help but express her condolences. Grandmother Jia was afraid that Feng Jie would be embarrassed, so when she saw that Jia Yuan and his wife had nothing to say, she brought him down. He was busy decorating the room and arranging the bed curtains for Sister Feng. "Lian's Second Grandmother will come to our place sooner or later to return the book," said Yuanyang."She won't be staying here for more than a few days. I'll help him clean up. Old Lady, don't worry about it.”Seeing that Grandmother Jia still doted on him, Sister Feng's heart relaxed.
When he was in hell, he had only hoped to be released after the limit was up, so he had no other concerns. Now that he was here, his heart was at ease, but he couldn't help but think about it. He thought about how Ping 'er, Feng' er, and the others would serve him at home. There was also a group of family members and daughters-in-law who flattered him at any time. How powerful was the power in his hands? At this moment, he was all alone. He had lost a lot of his savings and couldn't bring the rest. He was also worried about Qiao Jie and did not know who was taking care of her.
Although Ping 'er was his confidant, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't have a change of heart. The bastard brother at home might have some bad ideas. There were so many things in her heart that she couldn't control them. She also shed a lot of tears behind her back. When he arrived in front of Grandmother Jia, he had to pull himself together and pretend to be happy. When he saw the Great-Grandmother, he couldn't help but harbor ulterior motives, as if he was avoiding a cat or a mouse. It was also very pitiful!
When Baoyu came to Plentiful City this time, he originally wanted to stay for three to five days before returning, but he was fettered by these things. Her heart was also in two places, and she hesitated to go and stay.
When Qin Zhong came to visit that day, the manservants at the door led him to the small study room to wait. Looking at the equipment and furnishings, it was simply Dream Slope House. After a while, Baoyu came out in casual clothes. Qin Zhong immediately stood up and greeted him."How did Second Uncle get here? When I was dying, I knew that you had come to see me. I begged the bailiffs to let me go back to see you, but they refused. I didn't expect to meet you here." "Brother Jing Qing, long time no see. You've grown much older." Ever since you left, I've been thinking about you every time I gather with Second Brother Liu and the others. Now Second Liu is with me.”"How did you get together?" Qin Zhong asked.”Baoyu then told him how Xiang Lian became a monk, how they met on the Great Desolation Mountain, and how they went to the Chixia Palace together. He then said,"Second Liu and Third Sister's life and death marriage has also reunited, don't you think it's a happy thing?”
"All of you are well now," said Qin Zhong."I'm the only one left here to act as a minor official. I'm ashamed." What are your plans for the future?" Baoyu said,"What's the point of doing those things? Why don't you come with me to the Great Illusionary Land? It'll be much better for us brothers to meet up every day."”"How can I go if you don't welcome me?" Qin Zhong asked. There's one more thing. The one with honey on his hands. I caused him to stain the Buddha Land. He's still in the bloodbath. What kind of person would I be if I harmed him and left him behind? If you intend to receive me, you have to ferry him first. Otherwise, I won't go even if I become an immortal.”"I've just begged your highness for Sister Feng and Miaoyu's sake, how could I have the nerve to ask again?" This is going to be difficult!"
"I can see that His Highness respects you very much," Qin Zhong said."You don't have to go in person. Just write a letter to me." If I beg the judge again, it might work. If I can get my wish, I will bring him along to find you. Just give me a few spare rooms and be your secretary. It's better than being there.”Baoyu refused to write a letter at first, so he could only write it to Qin Zhong. He also asked him to investigate the whereabouts of Qingwen's parents, and Qin Zhong agreed. Baoyu went in to ask Qingwen in detail, Kaiming's name, birthplace and date of birth and death, handed over to Tai Zhong to take away.
The next day, Qin Zhong invited Baoyu to have a meal at the Flower Rain Nunnery. Baoyu took his servant and rode away. He saw that the courtyard of the nunnery was clean and there were flowers and trees. The few nuns were all cultivators with long hair, so they also sang songs and drank wine. There were no guests at the table. Baoyu smiled at Qin Zhong and said,""Isn't it enough that you've created a bad debt?”"This is just a show," Qin Zhong said."There are many real things." I am asking you to open your eyes and know that there are many Chen Miaochang among them. That could be considered a clean and honest person!”
As he spoke, a nun in her twenties came forward and asked Baoyu to play a tune. Baoyu found his face familiar. He thought about it carefully and remembered that he was the Crane Immortal, a female Taoist priest of the Water-Moon Nunnery.
Zhang Wenzhi came here not long ago and changed his name to Zhang Huilian. Qin Zhong mistook Baoyu's intentions and smiled.""He became a Daoist nun first and then a nun. You changed from a monk to a Taoist priest. It was fate in both the immortal and Buddhist worlds, so why not save him?”When Huilian heard this, she winked at Baoyu, seemingly filled with boundless affection.
Baoyu only sneered for a while. Qin Zhong said during the banquet that Qingwen's parents had already given birth and could not be investigated. He was deeply sorry. When Baoyu returned that night, he told Qingwen this.
Qingwen had no choice but to cry.
At this time Baoyu saw that everything was settled, and his heart was even more eager to return. The next day, while Jia Daishan and Grandmother Jia were chatting and laughing in the upper room, she was going to bring her grandfather and grandmother to the Great Illusionary Land to take care of them for a while and repay them. "If you want to go, go with the old lady," Daishan said. I'm used to being quiet, and because there's a war going on, they want me to help them make a register. I've already promised them. How can I leave?”"I've always doted on Baoyu," Grandmother Jia said."Now that Baoyu has a family, I want to go take a look. I wonder if the two elders will allow me to do so?"”Daishan smiled." You're used to being an old lady. You've always been too reserved. It's better to go there and take a walk."”I wonder if Grandmother Jia will go with us?
