dream of red mansion

After thinking about it for a while, Jia Qing ignored Princess Xingyue's threats and walked towards the inner house while responding to Jia Mu and the others' questions.

How did he know that Princess Xingyue didn't lie to him this time, he was indeed going to be promoted.It's a pity, just as he thought, he absolutely doesn't want to be an official...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Midsummer is bitter and the night is short, open the pavilion to enjoy the coolness.

This year's summer has been extraordinarily hot.

But as soon as the hour passed, the sun shining all over the sky began to burn people's skin sorely.

The sisters in the Grand View Garden couldn't bear the sweltering heat, so they all rushed to Li Wan's place, and took advantage of the big jujube tree in Dao Xiangchun's backyard to enjoy the cool breeze, play chess with female workers, or play and joke for a while. It can also relieve this hot and boring time.

The maids picked a few lotus pods from the pond, and they were gathering together to peel the lotus seeds and eat them.Seeing Xiangyun, he also went to grab some, and then asked Daiyu if she wanted some.

Daiyu was playing chess with Baochai, and she couldn't bear to be disturbed by her, so she said: "Who is serious about eating this, you just eat it for a while, and when you turn around, you complain about your stomachache, that's why you suffer."

Xiangyun pouted at her, turned around and sat beside Baochai, still eating lotus seeds and watching them play chess.

For a while, Wang Xifeng led the girls over again.

"Hey, no one can be found in your respective houses, so I said you may have gotten into some mouse hole, so I won't be caught by you."

Wang Xifeng's usual fiery temperament offended everyone once he came.

Li Wan saw that the maid behind her was carrying a rather large object together, so she asked with a smile: "Who cares about you, a poor-tongued shabby householder, why don't you hurry up and say, what kind of good things did you bring to honor us this time? "

When Li Wan said this, everyone noticed that Wang Xifeng had brought this thing.

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Look, you can do it... But this time, you really guessed it right, it's really a good thing!"

As soon as they heard that it was a good thing, everyone put down what they were doing and gathered around.

Tanchun stepped forward to touch it, and felt it was cold, and immediately said, "Is this Bingjian?"

Wang Xifeng nodded.

"Is it the ice mirror? What is such a big ice mirror used for?"

The sisters naturally know what the ice mirror is, it is a sacred object used in summer to escape the heat.But most of them have seen it, but they have never seen such a big one.

Shi Xiangyun said: "It doesn't matter what he does, if you open it, you'll know!" He lifted the top cover, revealing a large square box.

Tanchun helped to uncover the lid together.

"Wow~ it's fruit!" Xichun exclaimed.

I saw that this two-foot-square box was surrounded by thick ice cubes, and the volume in the middle was less than half the size of the entire box, but seven or eight grids were opened inside, and in each grid were placed cleaning items. Get clean fruit.

Grapes, bayberries, cherries, plums, etc.

This day, there is still a lot of cold air coming out.Just looking at it has already made many people swallow their saliva.

"Did the palace give ice so early this year? It's not even June yet." Tanchun knew that there was no ice cellar in Rongguo Mansion. In the past, most of the ice cubes used in Rongguo Mansion in summer were waited until the hottest weather. In a few days, the palace will give some ice cubes down.

There won't be many, and they are all for Jiamu's use.

Wang Xifeng replied: "This is not the order of the palace, the order of the palace may have to wait half a month before it will be delivered."

"Then this is?"

"Could it be that the people below honor the old lady?"

Everyone asked questions.

In such a huge capital city, it is naturally impossible that only the imperial palace has an ice cellar.With the power of Rongguo Mansion, it is not impossible to get some ice cubes from other places.

"You just keep asking questions, but Miss Yun's saliva is about to flow out!"

Wang Xifeng wanted to make a fool of herself, but happened to see Xiangyun staring at the frozen fruit without blinking her eyes, so she made fun of her.

Xiangyun smiled embarrassedly.

Wang Xifeng said again: "I advise you to seize the time and taste it quickly, there will be no more good things, and I will return the things to others later!"

While talking, Wang Xifeng ordered the maids to carry the "refrigerator" to the stone table over there, and told the maids in Li Wan's courtyard to hurry up and get out the fruit plate.

"What are you doing with the plate? Wouldn't it be more convenient to eat like this?"

Xiangyun couldn't wait, since she was sure that it was brought in for them to eat, she didn't wait any longer, reached out and took two cherries, handed one of them to Xichun who couldn't reach it, and threw the other into her mouth inside.

"What girl Yun said is true."

This time Daiyu supported Xiangyun's behavior, washed her hands in the basin brought over by the maid, and reached out to take one.

Wang Xifeng gave up.

So, seven or eight sisters and sisters-in-law gathered around and ate iced fruit.

It is a kind of enjoyment.

"Second sister-in-law Lian, you see that we ate as well. You should tell us who gave it to us this time, right? Don't finish eating by then. If you don't know who the owner is, that's too heartless. gone."

After Wang Xifeng also ate a red bayberry, everyone couldn't help asking again.

Wang Xifeng wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Hehe, I'm afraid you won't believe me if I tell you, this is sent by the princess!"

Everyone was really surprised.

Upon hearing this, Baochai laughed and said, "I'm afraid it's the Princess Xingyue who invited us to play in her mansion last time."

"Bao girl guessed right, but it's not her. The chief eunuch who sent it said that this thing was specially given to her by the emperor, and she only had this one. Early this morning, she ordered I filled it with fresh fruits from the special tribute of the palace, and asked people to send it to the mansion, saying that I invite you sisters to taste it together. Haha, in this way, my sister-in-law and I are still in your favor. Enjoy the treatment that only the sons and grandsons of the dragon have once enjoyed!"

When the sisters heard this, they didn't know how to react.

Although the princess had only been to Rongguo Mansion once, she left a deep impression on them.

Very enthusiastic, very well-behaved and lovely princess.

However, no matter how well-behaved she is, she is still a princess, a nobleman.

Originally, although she had said that she would invite them to play in her princess mansion, they also thought that maybe she was just being polite.Even if she really lacks playmates, there are many princes, grandchildren and daughters in Beijing, and they are not the only ones in Jia's family.

However, who would have thought that she really kept them in her heart, and specially asked people to send her good things out of the palace to share with them.

This approach is really puzzling.

Seeing that the sisters were all thinking, Wang Xifeng said again: "Perhaps, we are not just taking advantage of you, you don't know yet, your second brother has been promoted again."
