While crying loudly, she stomped on Baoyu's feet on the ground several times.

What does it mean to spoil the mood?
What does it mean to be a complete spoilsport? Jia Baoyu's behavior is the best proof!
This fellow, for reasons unknown, put on a classic act of smashing jade right there in Xichun's courtyard at the Ning Mansion, causing quite a stir.
Jia Huan and Cong Ge'er didn't react much; hadn't they experienced something like this before?
The women turned pale with fright, especially Sanchun, whose face turned completely white.
With a speed unbecoming of her status, her elder sister Tan Chun rushed to the crying Jia Baoyu in the blink of an eye and picked him up from the ground.
Then, he looked extremely troubled as he helped the crying Jia Baoyu up.
At this moment, the other women also came to their senses. One of them, pale-faced, went over and showered him with concern, her aim being to persuade Jia Baoyu, this little devil, to be well.
The young ladies all went out in person, and the maids were thrown into chaos and panic.
Only Li Wan and Qin Keqing remained motionless; both women's faces were pale and ashen.
The way they looked at Jia Baoyu was tinged with a subtle, unsettling meaning!
This time, their faces were slapped so hard by Jia Baoyu's crying and fussing that they were both swollen!
You should know that although this is the Ning Mansion, and Xichun's little courtyard, the owner is Li Wan!
She also formally invited the two young brothers, Jia Huan and Jia Cong, to discuss the serious matter of her son Lan'er's studies, rather than actually hiding from Jia Baoyu to play around.
It's understandable that Qin Keqing is in a bad mood; this is the Ning Mansion!
Especially since it was the boudoir of his aunt Xichun, Jia Baoyu's reckless intrusion and subsequent act of smashing the jade was utterly disgraceful to the Ning family.
Fortunately, Aunt Xichun was still young; otherwise, if the matter got out, how could they possibly discuss marriage in the future?
"What is Brother Bao doing?"
Cong-ge'er was seeing such a scene for the first time and asked with great curiosity.
"They're vying for favor!"
Jia Huan chuckled and said, "Didn't you hear what he said? His sisters and cousins are all ignoring him, but he secretly invited us two brothers to a small feast. He's so jealous and resentful, how can he not make a scene?"
Cong-ge'er's face was full of strange expressions. After holding it in for a while, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Brother Bao is so old, why is he still like a child?"
If this had happened before he left the manor, Jia Cong would probably have been terrified to see such a chaotic scene.
But after more than two years of martial arts training, not only had his height and physique changed dramatically, but his spirit had also improved considerably. This allowed him to chat quietly with Jia Huan at this moment.
There's a saying that goes, "Holding a sharp string in hand, the desire to kill arises spontaneously."
In addition, Jia Huan would sometimes take him to watch street fights and other shady things happening in the city from a distance, which gradually made him more composed, at least for his age.
"That's because he has the confidence to do so!"
Jia Huan said lazily, "Didn't you see how terrified all the older sisters were?"
Cong-ge'er understood. After all, he was a well-known nobody in the Rong family. Considering Jia Baoyu's status in the Rong family, how could he not know what was going on?
However, the expression on his face immediately became somewhat indifferent.
After all, they've only just entered adolescence and haven't experienced the harsh realities of society. They can't hide their feelings on their faces, so they're bound to be a little unhappy.
Perhaps Lan Ge'er was too well protected by his mother Li Wan, and he was completely bewildered by the sudden chaos, not understanding how things had turned out this way.
Jia Huan squinted and saw Jia Baoyu surrounded by beauties. The resentment and anger on his face disappeared, replaced by happiness.
Ugh, it's just too much to bear to watch!
Jia Baoyu's sudden act of smashing the jade caused a commotion, but just like his mood, it quickly cleared up and returned to normal.
From beginning to end, he had no intention of getting up to join in the fun!
Anyway, this matter is unlikely to be easily resolved, and there will be more to deal with later.
When the old lady and Madam Wang hear the news, they will definitely make another fuss, otherwise, wouldn't Jia Baoyu's magical jade have been smashed for nothing?
If he acts too enthusiastically, won't he become a sitting duck for these two?
No need, really no need!
Today's gathering was initiated by Li Wan. If she can't handle the aftermath properly, there will be no need for further contact.
Surrounded by beautiful women, Jia Baoyu was overjoyed and felt incredibly content.
He had been persuaded and slowly walked to the large table where the banquet was being held.
Li Wan and Qin Keqing forced smiles and let him sit in the main seat, though they probably harbored a lot of resentment towards him.
"Brother Bao is here!" "Uncle Bao, please take a seat!"
At this moment, Jia Huan, Jia Cong, and Lan Ge'er stood up together to greet them.
Jia Baoyu was being utterly disrespectful, not even lifting his eyelids, completely ignoring the three of them, and chatting happily with his sisters while looking around.
At this point, whoever takes it seriously will naturally feel awkward.
Jia Huan pulled the somewhat stiff Cong-ge'er and Lan-ge'er to sit down, then grinned and approached his elder sister Tan-chun, extending his hand and saying, "Sister Tan-chun, let me see Brother Bao'er's jade!"
"I've never really seen anything like this before in all my life!"
Tan Chun initially wanted to refuse, but upon hearing Jia Huan's words, her heart softened. She handed the jade pendant she was holding to Jia Huan, instructing him, "You can look at it, but please don't break it!"
When I said this, my feelings were somewhat complicated and hard to describe.
"Don't worry, Sister Tanchun, I know what I'm doing!"
Jia Huan chuckled as he accepted the jade pendant, but his body suddenly stiffened the next moment.
It wasn't that the Jade of Spiritual Enlightenment had suddenly changed, but rather that the virtual screen evolved from the Golden Finger suddenly appeared, and the value representing fortune was skyrocketing.
In the blink of an eye, the original luck value of less than 300 had easily jumped to over 400, and was still climbing at an alarming speed, showing no signs of slowing down.
Damn, do you have to be so exaggerated?
Fortunately, he didn't show any strange behavior or expression, and quickly returned to normal. He picked up the jade pendant in his hand and examined it carefully, finding nothing amiss.
There's no need to elaborate on the appearance of the Spirit Jade and the words on it; they've been discussed to death in fan fiction.
He pretended to examine and scrutinize the object, his purpose being to buy time.
I never imagined that obtaining the Spirit Jade would bring such benefits.
Absorbing luck directly from it is incredibly satisfying!
The Spirit Jade is the famous Stone that mended the heavens; the immense fortune it contains is beyond Jia Huan's wildest imagination, and it is absolutely a great blessing for him.
As for his own cheat ability, which was able to absorb the fortune from the Heaven-Mending Stone, it was probably no simple matter. He didn't take it to heart at all. What else could he do?
Cong-ge'er and Lan-ge'er were also very curious. The jade pendant on Jia Baoyu's body was very famous. They had only heard of it but had never seen it before. Now that they had a rare opportunity, they naturally wanted to take a good look.
They're just observing; there's no way they'd actually do it!
Even someone with a dull mind would know how much the old lady and Lady Wang in the mansion valued this precious jade.
Who knows if they might think that because they handled Baoyu, Baoyu has been tainted by something unclean, and then they would be unfairly targeted.
Living in the Rong Mansion, the most important thing is not to upset the old lady, otherwise life will be difficult.
Jia Huan was stubborn; they didn't have the courage to "test the law."
Of course, after seeing it, both Cong-ge and Lan-ge were somewhat disappointed.
Aside from being somewhat rare, the Spirit Jade is no different from any other fine jade on the market.
Jia Huan was quite frustrated at this moment, because the action of the golden finger absorbing the luck had automatically ended, and the luck value had just broken through six hundred.
All I can say is that ideals are lofty, but reality is harsh!
It is obviously not that simple or easy to use the Spirit Jade to raise one's luck value to four or even five digits in one go.
He quickly adjusted his mindset; it was already quite impressive that he could increase the luck value on his cheat system by more than 300 in such a short time.
How long did it take me to get my luck value to less than 300?
It has now surged by more than 300 in one go, which is already considered a huge profit.
At this moment, Jia Huan didn't know whether he should thank Jia Baoyu, the protagonist of the Dream of the Red Chamber, or the magical jade itself.
Just then, his older sister, Tan Chun, who had been eyeing the jade with predatory intent, saw that he had lost interest and took the jade back. She dared not be careless.
There's not much to say about what happened next; the protagonist of the banquet had become Jia Baoyu.
He was overjoyed, thinking he had made up with his sisters, but little did he know that his antics had terrified them, and they were determined to stay away from him from now on.
Even Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu are no exception!
Just think about how annoying it is to take care of a baby who doesn't even know what's going on, and you'll understand the women's mindset at this moment.
Not showing any negative emotions is already a sign of considerable composure.
Jia Huan paid no attention to any of this, eating and drinking as usual, not wanting to benefit the maids and servants in Xichun's courtyard.
Li Wan invited him to a banquet, which must have been carefully prepared.
