Chapter 272 Zhou Mansion
On the way, I accidentally met the maids of the Zhou Mansion that Jia Baoyu was familiar with. When those maids saw Jia Baoyu, they looked like cats and mice. Unfortunately, there were many people in the mansion now and they didn't dare to surround him, which made Jia Baoyu feel much more at ease. Because Jia Baoyu knew the "** Sutra", in fact, he was a little repulsive to these unfamiliar people, because it might be just because of the "** Sutra". If it were a simple reason, Jia Baoyu would not like it very much.
Of course, Jia Baoyu's idea only existed for a long time and was solved by Fengyue. The "** Sutra" will only affect the feeling of existence, and will only make those who like Jia Baoyu like Jia Baoyu more, and will not make those who don't like him like him. Just like Li Wan, what is affected is the degree of like and the attitude of facing him.
Jia Baoyu returned the book first. Zhou Ping should have gone to court at this time. Besides, even if the morning court ended, it would be normal for Zhou Ping not to come back. The three masters of the cabinet were not at all leisure.
Jia Baoyu has a backup of the key to Zhou Ping's study, so he doesn't need to say hello to anyone when he goes in, and the guards will not stop him when they see him. He opened the door and put the lecture notes back in. Jia Baoyu came out. Although there are many books here that Jia Baoyu had never read before, it is not the time to read these books. Everything will be discussed after the exam. At this stage, Jia Baoyu will not read the books that are useless in the exam.
When he came out, he saw Zixue, the maid in Mrs. Zhou's room, waiting outside. This was something Jia Baoyu expected. As long as he was not busy, Mrs. Zhou would definitely call him over. But Mrs. Zhou had never been there when Mrs. Zhou was too busy. "Why did Sister Zixue come here in person?"
Zixue heard this and said, "The old lady was so happy when she heard that Mr. Bao was coming. She urged her several times and said she wanted to invite you over. If I don't come, the old lady would have to come here in person."
"Why do I need my sister to come here in person? I am going to the old lady. My ancestor asked me to bring some things to the old lady."
Follow Zixue, met Mrs. Zhou, and gave the things that Mrs. Jia asked to send to Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Zhou opened it on the spot. It turned out to be the things that Mrs. Jia was wearing, but they were all made. Mrs. Zhou was overjoyed when she saw it. "A while ago, I told others that my Xier had come back for the first time, but I didn't want the old lady to be so careful. She prepared it for me. She was really interested."
Zixue heard this and said, "I'm afraid the old lady who came here to pick up things last time had listened to the old lady's words and went back to tell Old Lady Shi."
After a few words, Jia Baoyu also understood why Jia Baoyu gave these things. In this regard, Jia Mu was indeed much better than Mrs. Zhou, so Mrs. Zhou was not in a hurry to wear them.
Jia Baoyu and Mrs. Zhou said a few words and resigned. It would be fine if they knew the main purpose. Since Zhou Ping was not at home and had no reason to stay there. After all, he was still busy here, but his thoughts were a bit lacking in consideration when he came.
Mrs. Zhou didn't mean to stay when she heard Jia Baoyu's resignation. After all, there were a lot of things here, but she held Jia Baoyu's hand and said, "This time, your sister Zhou is going to be at home for three times. I think you have been together since childhood. Can you come here twenty-two times? I want you to get to know each other, so that you can take care of me in the future."
This should be a matter of disagreement! However, Jia Baoyu had no reason to refuse. The old man had made some efforts and no one would say anything. After leaving Mrs. Zhou, Jia Baoyu did not leave directly. Since there was such an extra thing, Zhou Ping's opinion must be sought.
Jia Baoyu waited in the study for half an hour before he heard Zhou Ping's footsteps coming back, "Teacher." Jia Baoyu came out to greet Zhou Ping.
Zhou Ping sat down. Zhou Ping would know the affairs of the Zhou Mansion as soon as he returned home. This is also the reason why the Zhou Mansion is prosperous and the Jia Mansion is gradually declining! The Jia Mansion does not have such an authoritative person, and Jia Baoyu is just going to be such a person. "I already know it, it's really hard for you, Baoyu."
Jia Baoyu shook his head, "There is nothing difficult, but Baoyu doesn't know whether it's appropriate or not."
"There is nothing wrong with it. You are not an outsider. You can be regarded as the word "royal relative". The old man's health has been worse than before in the past two years. There are rare things that are happy, but I just want to waste your time."
Since Zhou Ping agreed, there was naturally no problem. Zhou Ping then asked about Jia Baoyu's studies, and Jia Baoyu also asked about his own questions. It was already noon to finish everything like this. Zhou Ping left Jia Baoyu here for lunch, so Jia Baoyu naturally accepted it happily.
The bustling Zhou Mansion is in sharp contrast to the Zhao Mansion, which is separated by several streets. The atmosphere in the Zhao Mansion has been a bit heavy in the past few months. The reason is that the young master and the eldest son of their mansion, Zhao Gou, did a foolish thing and lost the face of the Zhao Mansion. Zhao Gou was jailed for several months, and it was not until now that he was released again.
He was a little thinner than before, but there was a little more tenacity in his eyes. Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Gou and said, "What have you understood in the past few months?"
Zhao Gou didn't speak, and Zhao Ji was not angry at all. "Not talking means you know some things. Some things you can do, I allow you to do, but some things you can't do, and I won't allow you to do, not because you have things you absolutely cannot do, but because you don't have the ability to do such things."
Zhao Gou opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. Zhao Ji said again: "I won't touch Tang Yixian. You can continue to be obsessed with her or see her. I won't ask why, but you have to remember that if you want to protect some things, you need to have enough strength, and it's not enough to say it. Jia Baoyu is just an insignificant person. Even he can trample on you, so that you can't protect the person you want to protect. Your enemy is countless times higher than him. What should you do at that time?"
"I will become strong, father." Zhao Gou walked out with great strides after saying this.
Next to Zhao Ji's side, the old man who had never spoken said, "Master, is this really good?"
