The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion
Chapter 350: Predestined Relationship
Chapter 350: Predestined Relationship
The Gong rang on the stage, but before ”Han Gaozu” appeared, he saw Jia Baoyu coming down from upstairs and slowly approached him. He slowly took out the unicorn and held it in his palm to look and see, but he still couldn't bear to hand it over.
Seeing him have various expressions stored on his face, his emotions and desires were mixed, which was a bit more complicated than those who sang fancy looks. Sun Shaozong couldn't help but laugh and said, "How did you get this? If you like this thing, just take it. I got these two things because of you.”
Jia Baoyu was overjoyed at the words and then remembered Lin Daiyu's contemptuous sneer. He immediately shook his head like a rattle, gritted his teeth, and put the Kylin in front of Sun Shaozong. With a tight face, he said, "Since Second Brother is lucky with the law of fate, how can I take it away? I only hope Second Brother can treat it well, and don't give it to anyone else recklessly.”
Law of fate?
This came out of nowhere. If it were for a confused person, it would have been confusing.
But Sun Shaozong has always been a shrewd person. After a moment's thought, he tentatively asked, "Isn't it that a relative in your family also has a similar object around her?”
“Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you, Second Brother.”
If he really returned it to him, Baoyu wouldn’t be as entangled as before. Seeing that Sun Shaozong guessed 70 or 80 percent, he pretended to be mysterious and said, "But I can't tell you about this person. If there is fate, you will know about it in the future.”
After a pause, as if comforting himself, he muttered, "With your current position, it doesn't seem like a bad thing for her.”
Without waiting for Sun Shaozong to speak, he returned upstairs with a sense of relief.
This self-proclaimed person was even trying to sell a joke!
Sun Shaozong silently watched Jia Baoyu return upstairs, then turned his face and placed the Kylin in front of Xue Pan, asking if he had seen anything similar before.
Xue Pan looked at it for a while, then shook his big head a few times, saying that he had never seen anything similar before.
Tch!
Sun Shaozong felt a little helpless. Although there were many beauties in Rongguo Mansion, only Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun could make Jia Baoyu reluctant to part with them and were qualified to use the word "fate."
Although Lin Daiyu also met the conditions, how could Jia Baoyu be willing to return it to Sun Shaozong if it was truly an object carried by Lin Daiyu personally? It was estimated that no matter what fate, he would force him to give this thing over.
At present, Xue Pan said that he had never seen the unicorn, so there was only one qualified person left, Shi Xiangyun.
But…
A few days ago, when his Big Brother mentioned this marriage, he firmly refused, but now he has this ”fate” incident…
Forget it!
Let's not think so much about it for now. Anyway, this was just a plaything, not a keepsake for a lifetime.
With such thoughts in mind, Sun Shaozong temporarily put this matter behind him and prepared to watch the play quietly.
Unexpectedly, ”Han Gaozu and Liu Bang” were still at the front play, but below the stage, a drama had started. Such a big event of the Rong-Ning Mansion, which had spread throughout the Capital, and their old friends sent people to pay their respects and send some incense offerings.
With this wave after wave, even without the need for an outsider like Sun Shaozong to come and go, how could one still quietly watch a play?
Old Lady Jia was even more exhausted from dealing with it. She had already regretted her decision, but she had already arrived; she didn't want to panic and leave. She barely waited until the three scenes were over and immediately sent a message to leave for the mansion.
There was another rush and commotion below.
Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan, two idle people, gathered together and listened to his tongue-wide invitation, saying, "Brother, it's my birthday in the next two days. Don't talk about the others who would come, but you can't fool me anymore. You didn't even go when I got married, but it's my birthday this time…”
“Go, go, I'll definitely go.”
Xue Pan had mentioned this matter eight hundred times before, and Sun Shaozong gave him an annoyed look and said, "But if you nag me again, I won't go.”
As he spoke, he told him that he would go to the washroom and cross the corridor between the two floors, only to see a clear view in front of him, which turned out to be a stone platform with a distant view.
Looking from the railing, although there were no spectacular peaks or murmuring valleys to see, the scenery of most of the inner city was panoramic. Looking at the bustling cities from afar, there was no sound to be heard, and there was a sense of stillness in motion and great seclusion in the city.
However, Sun Shaozong was just a layman, and after only gaining a brief understanding of his artistic conception, he couldn't help but stretch his neck to search for the location of his own mansion.
“You must come with me soon. The delicacy here is excellent. If you don't take a look and leave, we'll be in vain.”
As he was searching, he suddenly heard the sound of a woman playing behind him. Sun Shaozong turned around and saw a round-faced girl with a bee waist and shoulders cut. With one hand pulling on Xiren and the other pulling on Qingwen, they also burst out of the corridor.
When the three of them saw Sun Shaozong, they were all surprised and hurriedly greeted him. After greeting, the round-faced girl and Xiren prepared to retreat the same way.
Unexpectedly, Qingwen refused to leave at this point and took two steps forward, then bowed again, saying, "That day, I spoke rudely and angered you, Lord Sun. Later, you generously spared me. After that, I often think of it and feel ashamed and tense in my heart.”
Sun Shaozong waved his hand indifferently and casually said, "It’s just a few small things that are not worth worrying about. In the future, just remember that trouble comes out of your mouth.”
Qingwen had never paid much attention to ”dignity” and was accustomed to speaking without any restraint. However, with a casual remark that day, she almost caused a terrible disaster, and it gave her some lessons.
So she solemnly agreed and the three of them withdrew together.
After listening, the round-faced girl couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Lord Sun is not a person who focuses on lust.”
It turned out that the round-faced woman with a bee waist and a shaved shoulder was not someone else, but the big maid Yuanyang next to Old Lady Jia. Originally, due to Ping'er's personal affair with Sun Shaozong, she didn't have much regard for him in her heart.
But now, after hearing about Qingwen's experience, his impression of Sun Shaozong has changed a little. At least compared with Jia She, Jia Jing, Jia Zhen, Jia Rong, and other demons, Sun Shaozong was more or less particular.
Xiren was the most adept at judging people's faces. Seeing her muttering appearance, she knew that there must be some other story behind it, so she also came to question Yuanyang.
But Yuanyang knew the importance of it, so she naturally didn’t dare to speak out about Ping'er's affairs, so she only perfunctorily.
The two of them were laughing and joking below when someone suddenly called Yuanyang over to serve Old Lady Jia. Only then did Yuanyang take the opportunity to escape.
Not long after, the female relatives of the Rong-Ning Mansion came out from inside, leaving the mountain gate. At the foot of the mountain, they each boarded sedan chairs and carriages before allowing the male servants and Taoist priests to come and greet them.
When the procession bustled out of the mountain gate, the seven carriages of Sun Mansion naturally parted ways with the Rong-Ning Mansion, and Xue Pan also led his team off.
When they arrived at Sun Mansion, they received news from Old Lady Jia's envoy that she would be too lazy to go tomorrow and let Yingchun decide on her own whether to go or not.
Jia Yingchun knew Sun Shaozong was busy with his official duties and had to go to Xue Mansion to celebrate his birthday on the third day, so she quickly declined.
So this noisy Taoist ceremony, with only half a day's effort, declared an early end.
