As soon as it stepped into Rongguo Province, the System saw a tall and thin servant standing there. He was obviously a servant, but he looked very handsome. He had a temperament like orchids and osmanthus, and his eyes were as gentle as water.
When he saw Jia Baobao, he immediately greeted him.
"Baoyu, you're finally back. Madam is looking for you." He pulled Jia Baobao's sleeve and walked towards the backyard.
Jia Baobao stared at his face.
Who are you?
The System coughed and said, "Cough, I went to look for some information just now. Regarding your condition, I can only say, please do your best to complete the mission and get more skills and items that allow you to see normally. Or … Dear, help me level up. Once I level up, I'll give you a hack."
His voice was so flattering that it was disgusting.
Jia Baobao trembled, "That's easy for you to say. I've lived here for so many years, and I've never seen a Gold Mission that could help you level up."
The servant suddenly stopped and patted his forehead with his right hand, "Look at me, I almost forgot."
He turned around and smiled, "Maybe you didn't recognize me. I'm Xiren."
He pointed at the hairband, "Look, I'm the only one in Jia Prefecture who wears this colorful hairband. You should be able to recognize me, right?"
In order to let her recognize him, he often wore such a silly hairband. In the end, she still didn't remember.
Hua Xiren lowered his eyes slightly.
Jia Baobao nodded hesitantly and smiled, "Brother Xiren."
Xiren said, "Ah," and looked at her gently and awkwardly. He said softly, "You can't call me brother anymore. How can I, a servant, be compared to a man? This time, Master was angry with you because you called everyone 'sister' and 'brother'. It was inappropriate. "
"Ah, I can't call you that anymore …" Jia Baobao's eyes were filled with joy, but his mouth was puckered.
She couldn't even call him 'brother'. Wouldn't it be more difficult for her to complete the mission? How could she complete the mission in the future …
The corners of Xiren's eyes drooped. He stared at his master with heartache.
He really couldn't bear to see her wronged yet forced smile.
Xiren gently pulls her sleeve with his slender fingers. He doesn't look at her face and whispers, "Why don't you … call me in private? Don't let anyone hear you. "
"Others?" Jia Baobao heard the hidden meaning in his words and looked up.
Xiren looked around and said in a low voice, "This time, it was Third Master Huan who complained in front of Master, which made Master furious."
The System replied, "He's just jealous of you."
Jia Baobao nodded and said, "Oh."
She said to the System in her heart, "His unyielding spirit is worthy of an award. I've used almost all the items I got from drawing cards on him, but he's still not afraid?"
The System said, "Maybe … You're too good at attracting hatred."
Jia Baobao: "…"
When Xiren saw her confused look, he felt even more distressed for her.
What should he do with Bao Erye like this?
Xiren's fingers slid down her sleeve. Suddenly, he felt something warm.
He hurriedly lowered his head and rummaged through her sleeves. "Second Master, your sleeves …"
A furry dog's head popped out from her sleeve.
Jia Baobao just remembered that his cheap nephew was still in her sleeve!
Xiren frowned and picked up the puppy. "What kind of dog is this? How dare it run into Erye's sleeve."
"Woof woof woof woof —"
You're the dog!
The puppy's paws and legs were flailing around.
Xiren pinched the back of his neck and scolded, "It's so crazy. I'm afraid it's a mad dog. I'll throw it away. Madam is looking for you. Go to her room quickly."
"Wait!" Jia Baobao opened his arms and stopped Xiren.
"This puppy is … mine."
The puppy whimpered and tried to bite Xiren.
The gentle Xiren pinched the dog's nose quickly and fiercely. He even raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Jia Rong was in so much pain that he was about to cry.
Damn it!
Jia Baobao grabbed the puppy and said softly to Hua Xiren, "Good brother, I'll put him aside and then go to Madam's room with you. It's all my fault. Don't make things difficult for him."
Xiren stared at him.
Jia Baobao blinked. His peach blossom eyes were glistening.
Baoyu was so kind. He cared so much about a strange dog. How could he care about a human?
Xiren relaxed his shoulders. He turned his head and whispered, "Erye, hurry up."
Jia Baobao hid Jia Rong, who had turned into a dog, under a banana tree.
She squatted under the banana tree. She held the banana leaf with one hand and tapped the dog's nose with the other.
Jia Rong moved his two short legs. He wanted to hug her finger, but he hugged nothing.
Jia Baobao smiled and warned him, "Stay here. I'll send you back when I come back."
The banana leaf was green, and the beauty's red lips were red.
Jia Rong raised her head and stared at her in a daze.
His Uncle Bao was so good-looking.
Jia Baobao pushed him under the tree and whispered, "Hide well. Be careful. Don't let anyone stew you."
Her fingers touched his warm fur. Jia Rong shivered.
The System said, "Tsk, tsk."
Jia Baobao thought that he was afraid of his warning, so he retracted his hand in satisfaction and put the banana leaf back where it was.
As she listened to the familiar footsteps fade away, Jia Rong crossed her claws and placed them under her chin. She stared at the gradually disappearing figure through the gaps between the banana leaves.
Strange. Was his Uncle Bao a monster? Why else would he turn him into a dog?
Uncle Monster … Seductive Fox Demon … Ah!
He blushed and could not control himself.
"Achoo —" The dog sneezed.
Jia Baobao stepped into Lady Wang's house. He found no one else but Lady Wang.
Lady Wang was leaning on a green satin pillow. She wore an old silk jacket and a blue skirt. She held a string of prayer beads in her hand and closed her eyes to rest.
The System said, "It's time for you to tuck your tail in."
It seemed that Lady Wang was talking to her about her disguise as a man.
Jia Baobao stood aside obediently with his hands down.
But even if she acted like an honest person, she still had a smile on her face, which made people happy.
Lady Wang opened her eyes and looked at her. The sadness in her heart disappeared.
She waved at Jia Baobao.
Jia Baobao took two steps back and shook his head. "I caused trouble. I don't dare to sit."
Madam Wang said earnestly, "Son, you also know that you've caused trouble? Why did you have to do it? You're still smiling! "
Jia Baobao said bitterly, "I was crying. How was I smiling?"
Lady Wang squinted her eyes and stared at her naturally happy face. She could not tell if she was smiling or crying.
"You're different from men. You should pay more attention. And your appearance … Sigh, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. How could I have been blinded by lard and let you go down this path? I pity you … "
She sniffled and wiped the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief.
The System urged, "Go up and coax her."
Jia Baobao took two steps forward and patted Lady Wang's back gently. He said softly, "It's nothing. I don't think there's anything wrong with being a man."
It was better to say that it was great. It was convenient to do anything, and it was easier to squander money.
Lady Wang leaned on the pillow and sobbed. "I've ruined your life. You … you'll definitely blame me in the future. But I can't do anything about it. Master doesn't like me. He only loves Concubine Zhao. Concubine Zhao already has two sons. Although I have two sons and one daughter, your Jiejie Jia Zhu passed away early on, leaving behind Li Wan, who married into the family, to be of no use. Your Gege Yuan Chun had a falling out with Laoye, so he left home on his own. I don't know where he is now. If you were a girl, the two of us would have been banished to god knows where by those bastards. We could only … could only … "
She raised her head and saw Jia Baobao smiling at her.
Lady Wang choked and asked suspiciously, "… You're not smiling, are you?"
The System said, "Oh, this is troublesome."
Jia Baobao explained bitterly, "I'm innocent. Lady Wang, please understand. I was born with a smiling face."
Lady Wang said faintly, "Yes, I don't know who you take after with this face."
The guilty System, "…"
The guilty Jia Baobao, "…"
Jia Baobao said, "You … Is your cheat useful? My body is not Jia Baoyu. Don't, don't give me away. "
The System wiped its sweat. "No way. I've never given you away before. "
Fortunately, Lady Wang was not in the mood to find out who she took after.
Madam Wang held her arm and said in a low voice, "Do you know why you were punished by Master this time?"
"I don't know." Jia Baobao answered without a hint of shame.
Lady Wang choked. "My son, you should be more careful."
The System agreed. "That's right, that's right. You're a stupid pig trotter."
Jia Baobao, "…"
Old Lady Wang held her wrist tightly and said, "Isn't it because Jia Huan, that trash, complained about you in front of Old Master? She said that you've been fighting cockfights and riding horses every day, sleeping in the willows and sleeping in the flowers every night. She even had an ambiguous relationship with the servant girls and manservants in the residence. Tell me, is this true?"
Lady Wang carefully observed Jia Baobao's expression.
Jia Baobao's face was not red, and he was not panting. "Riding horses, no fighting cocks, no sleeping in the willows, and as for having an ambiguous relationship with the servants, I don't know what he means by ambiguous relationship. Don't tell me that holding hands, hugging arms, helping them read their palms, and tasting their rouge means that they're involved? "
"… Pulling? Hugging? You even tasted the Yan Zhi from their mouths! "Lady Wang's voice got louder and louder, and her eyes were round with anger.
Jia Baobao blinked and called out with a grin, "Mother, it's nothing, right? I'm an honest and dutiful person. "
The System said, "I'm afraid I don't know how to write the word 'dutiful'."
Jia Baobao smiled. "Go away, it's none of your business!"
Lady Wang was so angry that she laughed. She pinched her handkerchief and poked her forehead. She scolded, "Don't laugh!"
Jia Baobao quickly covered his mouth, but his eyes, which seemed to be able to speak, were still smiling.
Lady Wang said, "… Your eyes are really bad."
She leaned back on the pillow and rubbed her temples. "After all, you were raised as a man. It's not appropriate to raise you like a woman. But you can have anything you want in your little garden. Why do you have to look for it in the big garden? To make Master hate you? "
Jia Baobao felt wronged. "I didn't want to, but my eyes were born blind. I thought I was holding Xiren or Qing Wen, but it wasn't them."
Lady Wang had a splitting headache. "How did I give birth to such a …"
Her head hurt even more.
"Alright, Master's punishment is to ground you for a month. From now on, don't walk around the big garden. Master has received the imperial edict. His Majesty has heard that the scenery in our garden is beautiful and will be coming to spend the summer. In order to receive him, the family has to make some preparations and build a lot of buildings. You should just stay in your own garden. "
Jia Baobao was stunned.
What about her daily mission?
Lady Wang glanced at her. "You don't want to?"
Jia Baobao pursed her lips, and her eyes curved into crescents.
Lady Wang thought she had agreed with a smile, so she nodded happily. "It's good that you're willing."
"If you're tired of staying here, you should go spend more time with your sister-in-law. She was raised as a man at home since she was young. You should learn from her."
Learn what? Learn how to be a good man?
Jia Baobao said, "Oh."
