The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

After Jia Lian took Sun Shaozong to the front hall, he soon put on a banquet with four meat dishes, four vegetable dishes, and one soup.

No matter the meat and vegetable dishes, the soup was really delicious. It was simmered with a plate of silver frost charcoal below, emitting a rich but not greasy aroma.

Sun Shaozong unconsciously moves his hands. He was about to take the spoon and scoop a bowl to taste what it was. At this moment, he heard Jia Lian laugh, "Erlang can have a feast. Today's “five sons being admitted to the academy” is very special. I was originally prepared to supplement myself at night, but it happened that you got the chance to taste it now."

Five sons being admitted to the academy?

Sun Shaozong looked at the light golden clear soup, but he really couldn't see where the “Five sons” were.

At this time, he saw that Xing'er took a large wooden box from the side and lifted the lid. There were a dozen silver molds in it, which were carved in the figure of the cattle, sheep, deer, and dogs. In the middle, there were four glittering ones, carved with four beautiful tigers.

It’s just that he doesn't understand what these things are for, seeing Xing'er uncover the silver mold one by one, revealing the meat with different colors inside, he then takes the silver spoon again, and carefully puts it into the soup.

Looking at the “cattle, sheep, deer, and dogs” floating in the soup, Sun Shaozong feels a little speechless. So why make it so extravagant when it was just a pot of meatball soup?

After a while, a layer of fine oil floated in the soup, and the aroma was vaguely mixed with some fishy smell, which was more attractive than just now.

"Come, pick two of them and have a try first. We can eat the main dish later!"

Jia Lian initiates him to start eating. He then first grabbed a deer and a cow, then scooped up half a bowl of clear soup, lowered his head, and bit off the deer's head. He quickly sipped the soup and showed the color of undulate longing for love, and chewed it carefully.

Looking at Jia Lian's intoxicated appearance, Sun Shaozong became interested again, and hurriedly picked a deer and a sheep. Learning from Jia Lian, he bit off the deer's head in one bite, but before he could chew, he felt a strong smell that went straight into his throat!

Seeing that he frowned, Xing'er hurriedly reminded him, "Master Sun, hurry and drink some soup. This thing will have to be swallowed with the soup!"

Sun Shaozong endured the discomfort and poured himself a mouthful of soup.

It's strange to say that when the soup went into his mouth, it was full of fragrance. The fishy smell brought by the minced meat turned into an unparalleled sensation of delicious stimulation. When he chewed it carefully, his whole tongue was like soaking in a hot spring, which was indescribably filled with happiness!

Sun Shaozong finally understood why Jia Lian put on such an exotic expression.

At that moment, the two of them couldn't care less about being scalded. Only a moment later, they wiped out most of the minced meat. Feeling the warmth in their stomachs, Sun Shaozong suddenly remembered to ask what the ingredients for the "Five sons being admitted to the academy" was made of.

"Becoming a member of the Academy refers to “taking a wife,” as for the meaning of five sons..." Jia Lian said with a smile, "It naturally refers to the five semen of the Sun root!"

Shit!

No wonder he just said to supplement himself!

Wait!

Sun Shaozong pointed to the four gold molds and blurted out, "So, isn't that a tiger penis in here?!”

"Haha. Yes, it indeed is the tiger penis, and it's a fresh tiger penis just hunted in the mountains yesterday!" Jia Lian laughed and said, "Otherwise, how would I say that you are having a feast? The main dish of this “Five sons being Admitted to the Academy” is usually just a deer penis. Where can you find a fresh tiger penis?"

With that, he winked and said, "With the help of this tiger penis, I can be energetic at night. What flaws can that woman find?"

Speechless~

This guy just put in a huge amount of money to have an affair!

Sun Shaozong poked the soup basin with his chopsticks and said with a smile, "Although the tiger penis is rare, this soup itself should also not be simple, right? Without it, this “Five sons being admitted to the Academy” would be difficult to swallow, and where would it be so delicious?"

"The Second Master Sun is an expert."

Xing'er gave a thumbs up beside him, "There are 70 or 80 kinds of ingredients in this soup alone, and the main ingredient is a mountain..."

"Second Master, Second Master!"

At this time, he saw a healthy servant of the Jia family rush in panic, and he couldn’t care about saluting, so he first shouted, "Second Master, I don’t know what has hit our Young Master Bao that he insisted on collecting the body of the Intelligent Child to bury. I'm afraid he has left the mansion by now!"

"What?!"

Jia Lian immediately jumped up and angrily said, "Why don't you useless people stop him?!"

"We tried to stop him, but we failed!"

The healthy servant put on a bitter gourd face, but his heart was muttering, “We are not beautiful girls, how can we stop the Second Master Bao?”

Jia Lian was still throwing a fit. However, Sun Shaozong got up, laughed, and said, "Your brother's action is kind and righteous. Why are you not proud of him but angry?"

Seeing Sun Shaozong's opening his mouth trying to mediate the situation, Jia Lian had to shake his head and say with a wry smile, "Erlang doesn't know. Baoyu can't even take care of himself normally. How can he handle such things? Especially the corpse of that Intelligent Child has... In case he is scared out of good or bad, how can I explain to my old ancestor?"

After saying this, he arched his hand and said, "It seems that I can only trouble Erlang to go to the Daxing County Yamen with me. If he makes a mess, wouldn't it be a joke if the corpse of that Intelligent Child doesn't converge safely and make our Rongguo Mansion a laughing stock to the public?"

Jia Lian's words are quite responsible.

It’s just that…

Sun Shaozong's eyes fell on the four gold molds, full of entanglements.

Seeing this, Jia Lian hurriedly said, "I'll have the rest of the tiger penis sent to you in the evening!"

Sun Shaozong immediately changed his expression and said in righteous words, "What are you talking about, Second Brother? With our relationship, will I reject your offer without this half portion of tiger penis?!"

After a pause, he added, "Don't forget to bring the recipe for this soup."

Jia Lian just remained speechless.

—Dividing Line—

It was said that Sun Shaozong and Jia Lian went out of the Rongguo Mansion and rushed all the way to Daxing County Yamen. Who knew that when they inquired about the Yamen guard, they didn't see Baoyu at all?

Jia Lian was annoyed and said angrily, "It's fine if Brother Bao talks nonsense normally. How dare he regard such a thing as a joke?! How can he give up halfway? Where did he put the reputation of the Rongguo Mansion?!”

Sun Shaozong looked at the “Power of the four penises,” in which all of it had rushed to his head, showing his blue veins popping out on his forehead. He hurriedly advised, "Don't be impatient, Second Brother. Maybe Brother Bao is caught up on something and delayed on his way."

"Delayed?"

Jia Lian sniffed, "If there was a delay on the way, we should have seen him by now. How could we catch up here..."

Just as he was saying this, he heard the sounds of sadness and music on the corner of the street. It turned out that seven or eight filial sons and grandchildren were carrying coffins. In the middle, another red-robed boy was sitting on a horse, but who else could it be if it wasn't Jia Baoyu?

Seeing Jia Lian from a distance, Jia Baoyu hurried to salute and said, "Second brother, how are you here too?"

He also saw Sun Shaozong on the side, but he paid no attention.

Jia Lian looked at the funeral procession from far to near and said in surprise, "Where did you find these people?"

"Coffin shop!"

Jia Baoyu raised his chest and said triumphantly, "I went to buy a coffin for Intelligent Child, and I learned that there were people there who were willing to dress up as relatives and send people to mourn. So I hired a team, and according to the boss's instructions, I asked Li Gui to invite monks and Taoists and go to a Feng Shui Master to search for a good location for a burial. When the night comes, we can perform rites in a leased farmstead nearby, and then bury her properly."

As he spoke, he smugly looked at Sun Shaozong and said, "I usually just don't want to deal with these mundane affairs. If I really want to do it, I'm no worse than others!"

A 13-year-old boy deserves the word "rarely" being able to settle all this, but his red robe was too eye-catching.

Although this boy was a little hostile to himself, Sun Shaozong was not going to argue with a yellow-mouthed child.

So he laughed and said to Jia Lian, "Wait here, Second Brother Lian. I'll go inside and explain. Although the truth of this case has been revealed, not everyone can carry the corpse away of that Intelligent Child."

With that, he arched his hand to Baoyu with kindness and went straight into the County Yamen.

Baoyu saw that he was completely indifferent to his provocation, and his heart was more and more humiliated and indignant.

These days, his ears are full of the words of “Sun Shaozong.”

For example, Jia Zheng, since he broke a case with Sun Shaozong, had to compare Sun Shaozong with him every day, followed by a deep sigh. It seemed that Jia Baoyu didn't deserve to lift shoes for others.

It doesn't matter. Anyway, Baoyu always treated his father’s scolding as nothing.

He can't stand that his sisters also praise Sun Shaozong, especially Lin Daiyu, who was his childhood friend. Every time she mentions Sun Shaozong, she gives a face of being proud of him, which makes Jia Baoyu not worth listening to.

To put it bluntly, this was the same as “study slacker” and “scholar” in our generation. Not to mention, Jia Baoyu didn’t admit that he was a “study slacker”!”

Let alone how Jia Baoyu was suffocating himself outside.

It was said that Sun Shaozong went into the County Yamen and told the story of the Young Masters of the Rongguo Mansion coming to take the body. Shen Dan wished he could carry the body out himself so that he could show his face in front of Jia Baoyu, so how would he refuse?

Therefore, it took only a moment to complete the formalities.

When several Yamen guards carried the corpse outside the door, they saw Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu waiting under the steps. Sun Shaozong hurriedly reminded, "The corpse is carried out. Please take shelter from it, Second Brother and Brother Bao."

Without his warning, Jia Baoyu would long avoid when he smelled the scent of the corpse. But hearing Sun Shaozong's words, this naughty kid filled his mind with being disobedient to him.

So without thinking about it, he stepped forward and said, "Intelligent Child and I have been familiar since childhood. I have seen what she looks like. No matter how..."

It’s fine for Jia Baoyu to greet people up front, but the Yamen servant who carried the body was initially nervous. Seeing a nobleman coming up, he didn't know what to do. In his panic, the door plate shook a few times, and unexpectedly, a bloody head rolled out!
