The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion Chapter 427: Since Ancient Times, Filial Piety and Relations

After finally entering the Sun family's door and taking his seat in the front courtyard living room, Jia Baoyu was still hearing the mournful sound in his ear, so he didn't notice that Xiuju lied about going to the back house to report, but, after leaving the living room, she went straight to Sun Shaozong's courtyard.

Because Xiuju has been with Jia Yingchun for so many years, she knew that once her owner encountered difficulties, she would only be hesitant and unable to co up with any serious ideas.

Rather than making Jia Yingchun feel embarrassed in vain, it would be better to report it directly to soone who could make up his mind!

It was said that Sun Shaozong had been drinking with his Elder Brother all morning and finally managed to ”flatten” him, and his stomach had already been filled with alcohol.

Therefore, he didn’t go to Ruan Rong's place for lunch as usual, but instead went to Second Sister You's room and prepared to engage in so popular sports while enjoying the wine.

That Second Sister You has a gentle temperant, but she was very open-minded in sexual matters. Sun Shaozong only teased a few words, and she understood his aning. She and Sun Shaozong both rolled into the red tent and in a mont, they peeled off naked, one black and one white.

Seeing that he was about to regain his composure, he suddenly heard a timid voice from a servant girl outside, saying, "Second Master, Sister Xiuju from the Elder Madam's house is here. She said she must report sothing urgent to you.”

Why did she choose to co here at this ti?

Sun Shaozong's stomach was filled with a sinister fire that had beco an internal injury, but it was not easy to take this statent as a byword. After all, he was not that short and powerless, and he needed to have fun in ti before paying attention to it. He was afraid that he would have delayed the serious matters earlier.

Therefore, he had to command Second Sister You to wait in bed first, and if it weren't for any urgent matter, it would be okay for him to co back and ”fight” until dark.

“Second Master.”

Seeing Sun Shaozong coming out of the inner room, Xiuju quickly approached to salute, and then, taking advantage of the little maid's lack of attention, cast a resentful look. Recently, due to Jia Yingchun's pregnancy, she naturally couldn't find any pleasure with him.

But this grueso appearance should never be revealed in front of people.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong's gaze was sharp, and Xiuju lowered her head with a straight stare. Then he asked, "Does Sister-in-law have so orders for you to be in a hurry over to see ?”

“Reply to the Second Master's words.”

Xiuju hurriedly said, "It's not that the Elder Madam has any instructions. There's a troubleso matter coming to our door, and I don't know what to do with it. That's why I ca to ask you to co up with an idea.”

As she spoke, she told Sun Shaozong about how she went to Rongguo Mansion to inquire about the truth and coincidentally t Jia Baoyu and went back to the mansion with him.

When Sun Shaozong heard that there were the nas of Qingwen and Caixia on the register, he couldn't help but be surprised. It was reasonable for Caixia. However, Qingwen had always been one of Jia Baoyu's heartthrobs, so how could he be willing to send her to the Sun family?

But…

If Jia Yingchun had a disagreent with Old Madam Wang about taking care of Jia Baoyu's thoughts, it would probably not be appropriate.

Having been in a dilemma for a while, Sun Shaozong couldn't make up his mind and had to first inquire about the relationship between Jia Baoyu and Qingwen and then decide whether to make a decision.

So he hurriedly rushed to the front hall and instructed Xiuju to wait outside the door. He went inside alone and complained half truthfully, "Brother Bao, you're here. Why don't you send soone to inform so that I can also go to the door to welco you?”

“Brother Sun.”

Baoyu quickly got up to greet and smiled bitterly, "If Second Brother goes to et outside the door, we will both be entangled by those who are shouting grievances and can’t escape.”

As he spoke, his face was filled with regret.

Sun Shaozong's heart sank and he joked, "Why, after seeing so people's ups and downs, do you start to worry about them? In my opinion, you should take care of your own family first.”

Upon hearing this, Jia Baoyu suddenly rembered his intentions and hurriedly said, "Second Brother, to be honest, I ca here to bother you this ti because of Qingwen.”

“Stop.”

Sun Shaozong raised his hand to stop his words and said sternly, "You don't need to say and I know what you are here for. But have you really made up your mind to ”fight” with your mother at this mont?”

“I will naturally be able to explain to my mother.”

As Jia Baoyu was speaking, he suddenly realized sothing was wrong and frowned. "What does the aning of ”at this mont” in your words an?”

Sun Shaozong didn't answer and asked, "Let ask you first, how is Aunt's mood lately?”

Jia Baoyu let out a bitter smile and first explained the matter of Caixia, but then helplessly said, "Sister Caixia is a kind-hearted and righteous person. Unfortunately, the entrusted person is not human. Third Brother Huan blindly pushed the wrong on her, and he has no burden at all.”

“I'm asking, how is Aunt's mood lately?”

Seeing what he was saying, Sun Shaozong sympathized with Caixia again. He had to repeat the question just now.

Baoyu spread his hands and said, "My mother naturally couldn't be happy when people around did such things. If it weren't for this, how could she vent her anger on Qingwen?”

Unexpectedly, Sun Shaozong shook his head and said, "It's true to vent anger, but it's not necessarily because of Caixia.”

“Is it not because of Caixia that she was angry?”

Upon hearing this, Baoyu was montarily stunned and then sincerely bowed. "If you've heard anything, Second Brother, please tell as soon as possible. I can also prescribe the right dicine to put an end to this innocent disaster.”

“Apply the right dicine to the case?”

Sun Shaozong shook his head and sneered. "I'm afraid you don't have the ability. I'll ask you again. Is Old Elder Uncle going south to take office at the end of the month?”

Jia Baoyu was a bit dissatisfied and suddenly heard Sun Shaozong ask about Jia Zheng's whereabouts and couldn't help but wonder, "If there were no accidents, he would have taken office by the end of the month, but what does this have to do with my mother? My mother has always been a virtuous assistant, and she will never have any resentnt because my father seeks to be released from the Capital.”

Sun Shaozong gave a silent slap on the forehead and said in frustration, "Aren't you studying the reasoning of criminals lately? Why are you still so ignorant? I'll ask you again, how should Concubine Zhao, who is locked up in the ancestral hall, be handled when he is going south to take office?”

“Of course…”

Jia Baoyu was about to answer that she would continue to be locked up in the ancestral hall, but after more than a year of ups and downs, he was no longer a fool.

With the attitude of Old Lady Jia and Old Madam Wang's hatred towards Concubine Zhao to the bone, if there was no protection from Jia Zheng, she might fall ill in a few days!

Jia Zheng has sheltered Concubine Zhao for a long ti, and his emotions towards her were obviously different from those of his Concubines. Would he let Concubine Zhao stay in the Capital and wait for her death?

Based on this calculation, wasn’t Jia Zheng going south with Concubine Zhao to take office?!

Thinking of Concubine Zhao, who almost poisoned herself, wanting to follow his father and have a happy life in the south, Jia Baoyu couldn't help but feel so resentnt for a mont and bit his two rows of silver teeth with a clattering sound.

Sun Shaozong saw Baoyu's appearance and knew that he had already figured out the secret in it. He sighed and said, "How can the betrayal of those around him compare to the sentintality of those next to him? Now the two are in one place, the bitterness in your mother’s heart is far beyond your imagination.”

“And now she's venting her anger on Qingwen. I’m afraid she's already using Qingwen as a substitute for Concubine Zhao. If you try to confront her at this mont, do you know how she'll feel in her heart?”

How would she feel?

Her husband openly favored the Concubine, who intended to take her the main position and his intimate confidant servant girl, and secretly colluded with the Concubine's son. However, at this mont, her biological son also wanted to fight against her for the sake of a servant girl…

To describe it as hopeless shouldn’t be an exaggeration at all.

Thinking of this, Jia Baoyu was filled with confusion and fear. He felt sorry for his mother's situation and was unwilling to let her feel sad anymore; on the other hand, he couldn't bear to part with Qingwen.

After a long battle between heaven and man, he suddenly rembered that there was still a ”life ntor” standing in front of him. He eagerly asked, "Second Brother, in your opinion, what should I... do now?”

“I can't make up my mind about this matter.”

Sun Shaozong patted him on the shoulder, saying quietly, "Since ancient tis, filial piety has been difficult to achieve. Whether you choose to be filial to your mother or choose to be a devoted man to your servant girl, you can only make your own choice.”

He said he couldn't make up his mind, but in his words, he pointed out the identities of the two. Nowadays, even swaying between his mother and wife could be considered unfilial, let alone Qingwen being just a servant girl.

Therefore, Baoyu carefully chewed on the words ”love and filial piety are difficult to reconcile” a few tis, and his face showed a look of sadness and desolation. He bowed and said, “Second Brother, just pretend that I haven't been here today. Goodbye.”

As he spoke, he walked out dejected, and the figure behind him showed a hint of lancholy.
