Chapter 1, why don't you break the feces apart
Because Grandmother Jia is not only the highest-ranking person in the Jia family, but also a former young lady of the Shi family, the four prominent families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue stand on equal footing and advance together. Moreover, Grandmother Jia holds dual identities, and her every word and action in the Jia family is regarded as the law.
Sigh, if only I had been named Sun Wukong in my past life. Jia Baoyu shook his head and waved his hand, unconsciously reaching out to touch the chrysanthemum, and immediately a chill rushed up, causing him to grimace in pain
The official title of the Duke of Rong was inherited by Jia Zheng's elder brother, Jia She, who is also the uncle of Jia Baoyu. However, under the current benevolent rule of the emperor, Jia Zheng still holds a position, and he is known for his strictness and integrity, instilling fear in all members of the Jia family.
The original master had a deeply ingrained memory of his father, Jia Zheng. For his son, Jia Zheng adhered to the principle that filial piety is born from discipline. Each time the original master faced his father, the outcome could only be described as utterly tragic, leaving him battered and bruised.
He has three well-known temperaments. First, he has a strong aversion to reading, which is fatal for a scion of a prominent family. Second, he often mingles and frolics with women, which others perceive as indulgence in sensual pleasures. Third, he enjoys putting cosmetics, such as lipstick, into his mouth to eat, which women often tease him about.
Jia Baoyu, known by the nickname "The King of Chaos," was born in Rongguo Mansion with a piece of jade in his mouth. The jade is inscribed with the four characters "Tongling Baoyu," which is why he was named Jia Baoyu
Like a dream and an illusion, perhaps only this phrase can aptly describe his feelings at that time
No matter how long the road is, it eventually comes to an end. Before long, he arrived at his father Jia Zheng's study, but Jia Zheng was in conversation with a middle-aged man. Jia Baoyu found himself in a dilemma, neither standing nor sitting comfortably. At that moment, he suddenly felt a sense of gloom; indeed, the various forms of education and etiquette in feudal society were undoubtedly very strict.
The sky is clear and the air is fresh, with a gentle breeze blowing. Several melodious chimes of the morning bell resonate within the courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, their sound akin to the waves of a forest sea, rolling and surging, unceasing.
His most famous saying is: Men are made of clay, while women are made of water. When I see a woman, I feel refreshed; when I see a man, I feel utterly sullied
What a standard pretty boy! Looking at his reflection in the lake, Jia Baoyu stroked his chin and murmured to himself. Upon seeing the beautiful women in the courtyard, he couldn't help but feel a bit proud. Who cares? A pretty boy is indeed a powerful weapon for attracting women.
In the past, I saw a pretty boy, well, that is to say, a rich and handsome man. Deep down, he has always felt envy, jealousy, and hatred, of course, he would never admit to having such feelings.
"It is not good; it seems that the little maid mentioned this morning that Jia Zheng, the old man, has summoned me to his study." Jia Baoyu closed his folding fan, feeling a chill in his heart. Jia Zheng is his father, the current Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Works. As the saying goes, sitting on a bench without any covering is still a proper seat; Jia Zheng's authority is such that not only the Rongguo House but even the Ningguo House must treat him with utmost respect.
Upon thinking of this, Jia Baoyu shivered, feeling that the pain in his chrysanthemum had lessened. He no longer dared to indulge in wild thoughts and hurriedly made his way to Jia Zheng's study.
However, when the moon is full, it begins to wane; when water is full, it overflows. Today, Jia Baoyu has suffered from an upset stomach. While cursing incessantly, he hurriedly rushed to the restroom, which is also the reason why he is currently experiencing discomfort.
This statement spread throughout Kyoto, becoming a subject of ridicule. The momentum of Jia Baoyu was unmatched at that time, and his reputation as a dandy was well-known across the capital.
"You wretched creature!" Jia Zheng's anger grew even more intense as he slammed the table and said: "The 'Disciples' Regulations' states, 'When parents call, do not delay; when parents command, do not be lazy; when parents teach, you must listen respectfully; when parents reprimand, you must comply.' Upon hearing my call, you should be in a state of utmost urgency, hastening your pace. Even when going to the restroom, it should be the same. Why do you not break off your excrement?"
"Uh, the child has not been feeling well lately, experiencing some stomach issues." Jia Baoyu pretended to be fearful, but inwardly he cursed, "Damn, if you call me a little rascal, then aren't you just an old rascal? Is this what feudal society is like?"
According to Jia Baoyu's logic, if in his previous life he was called Sun Wukong, then after traversing through time and space, he might just possess Sun Wukong's body, causing a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace and battling the White Bone Spirit three times, that would be quite exhilarating
Grandmother Jia declared, "Baoyu is my heart, Baoyu is my liver, Baoyu is three-quarters of me, who dares to touch him? Hmph!" Jia Zheng had no choice but to let the matter rest.
However, in his previous life, he was merely a penniless fishing line. Jia Baoyu pondered to himself, who is Jia Baoyu in the Rongguo Mansion? Although he had never read "Dream of the Red Chamber," it was akin to how city dwellers, despite never having seen a pig run, have still eaten pork
Jia Baoyu here is indeed a wealthy second-generation individual
Hahaha! At that moment, Jia Baoyu, who had crossed over, was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Heaven truly opened its eyes! He had been poor his entire life, never having had a full meal, and his father was not Li Gang. Suddenly becoming a wealthy second-generation heir left him in a daze for quite some time
Jia Baoyu rubbed his eyes and then dug at his ears, wondering what kind of talk this was! The middle-aged man opposite Jia Zheng couldn't help but chuckle, nearly spitting out the tea he had just sipped.
Have you ever seen a child born with a jade pendant in their mouth? Have you ever witnessed such a miraculous event? Grandmother Jia exclaimed, "Look! My grandson has one! Is this not a blessing from heaven? Is this not a gift from the divine?"
However, in his previous life, he was named Jia Baoyu, and he was inexplicably transported to the legendary figure known as Brother Bao. Is this not a predetermined fate?
What? Break the feces?
With the addition of Ningguo Mansion to Rongguo Mansion, there are two dukes in one family, and the entire Jia family boasts numerous other official titles. They have counts, marquises, earls, and barons, all present in abundance. Therefore, the Jia family holds a prominent position among the top aristocratic families in the capital, known to all and recognized by everyone
The so-called sound of bells and the clatter of dishes is nothing more than this
With the protective charm of Grandmother Jia, it was only natural that the first thing Jia Baoyu, the glutton, did was to indulge in a feast. He devoured everything from tender bamboo shoots stewed with chicken skin, ginseng nourishing pills, to eight-treasure bird's nest porridge, and other delicacies from land and sea, swallowing them all without savoring. He vowed that in this lifetime, he would certainly become a glutton who dies from overeating
"You little rascal, I have called for you for quite some time, why are you so late?" Jia Zheng sat in his seat, puffing his beard and glaring, as if the mere sight of this son ignited his anger incessantly
Thinking of this, he glanced at the middle-aged man opposite his father. This man had an extraordinary appearance, with eyes that seemed to see through everything, and an aura of tranquility. Tsk tsk, Jia Baoyu smacked his lips; if this man were to go to modern times, he would undoubtedly outshine a large number of beautiful women. However, he did not recall this person from his memory. Who could he be?
In an instant, various maids and servants, each holding trays laden with fruits and vegetables, made their way directly to the main hall, their laughter and playful banter occasionally echoing through the air. Each of these women had been meticulously selected, a rare find among thousands, distinguished not only by their appearance but also by their exceptional competence in their duties. This serves to highlight the opulence and grandeur of the Rongguo Mansion
Jia Baoyu gazed at the backs of the maidservants for a while, then stared blankly at his own reflection in the lake, his face filled with dejection. Ever since he perished alongside two robbers at the Qingsheng Peak of the Great Wilderness Mountain on Earth, he had arrived at the Rongguo Mansion, and it had already been three days.
The architectural facilities of Rongguo Mansion are as luxurious as can be, with a building every three steps and a pavilion every five steps, corridors winding like curtains, eaves sharply protruding. Jia Baoyu quickly broke into a cold sweat, feeling an inner turmoil, pondering what it means to enter the gates of nobility, as deep as the sea? This is it.
In the future, those who indulge in wine and lust! Father Jia Zheng once became furious, feeling that Jia Baoyu had disgraced the scholarly tradition and was ashamed before his ancestors, wanting to beat him to death. However, Grandmother Jia Mu immediately expressed her discontent.
