By noon, the brother and sister had no excuse for delay.

Hua Zifang came to the carriage silently, Xiren carried the burden, and took a last look at the low courtyard.Although she only stayed for more than ten days, it gave her a more homely feeling than the Jia Mansion.

Xiren closes his eyes, she will come back eventually.

At this time, Bai Shi also appeared in front of the door, looking at Xi Ren with a sad face.Xiren blessed her body with a salute, "Mother, take care of yourself."

Bai Shi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but his throat choked up.Xiren smiled reassuringly, but didn't make any promises. He just turned around silently, put up his skirt and got into the carriage.

The carriage rumbled through the noisy streets and quiet alleys.

Not long after, the carriage stopped in front of the corner gate of Rongguo Mansion.

A gatekeeper poked her head out and saw Xiren getting off the carriage, and opened the door in a slow manner, muttering softly, "You come in and out all day long, this is not your own vegetable garden. , come when you want, leave when you want..."

"Mother Tian, ​​please come and open the door." Xiren handed over a purse with a smile, "It's cold, please have a drink."

"I come and go often, why are you being polite?" Tian's coffin face immediately became kind, and she refused, but she took the purse numbly with her hands, squeezed her fingers, and smiled more intimately on her face, "Jiaomen usually No one, if the girl needs convenience, just come to me."

"Thank you, Nanny Tian, ​​for taking care of me." Xi Ren replied.

Grandma Tian has always been greedy, she wants to get something every time she goes in and out, and she will never be able to feed herself just once.So Xiren didn't expect Tianmama to greet her with a smile next time, at least let Tianmama know that she is not stingy, and if she spreads the word, she can leak a little money, so as to avoid this woman's mistake.

After Nanny Tian returned to the hut, Xiren looked at Hua Zifang who had been silent all this time.

"Brother, you can only take care of everything at home." Although Xiren was sad to leave, but seeing Hua Zifang's silent expression, he knew that he was blaming himself again, but she couldn't explain this kind of thing.

"I know." Hua Zifang touched the top of Xiren's hair, "Hold on for two years, brother will pick you up sooner or later."

"Okay." The attacker muffled in response.

Hua Zifang took a deep look at Xi Ren, handed the burden to Xi Ren, and finally made up her mind, and gently pushed her, "Go."

Xiren's nose was sore, and he tried not to shed tears.

The two bowed to each other, and Hua Zifang looked at Xiren persistently.Xiren didn't force him to go over, so he had to turn around and leave first.

These days, even if Xiren is the first-class maidservant in the mansion, she can only take a few days off in a year.What's more, this time Father Hua passed away, and Xiren stayed at home for a full twelve days.

Even if the master of the mansion is extra gracious, Xiren still has to look at him, and he will not even think about going home on vacation for at least two years.

However, the only fortunate thing is that the corner gate is not strictly controlled.Occasionally, relatives come to visit, as long as they have enough money for Mrs. Tian, ​​and they don't leave the Rongguo Mansion, meeting at the corner gate is also allowed.

Xiren was doing psychological construction for herself all the way, and when she arrived in front of Jia's mother's courtyard, her mood had returned to calm.

Inside the courtyard gate, Qingwen, who was teasing the birds under the eaves, looked up and saw Xiren stepping into the courtyard in plain clothes.Qingwen fed the last handful of millet to Que'er, "I'm back, I've been waiting until my hair turns gray."

"I don't know, when did I incur this lovesickness debt?" Xiren raised his eyebrows.

"It's only been two days since I've been away, how come you've become thick-skinned?" Qingwen laughed, trying to pinch her face, "Let me see, isn't the rice water from the Hua family particularly nourishing?"

The two talked and laughed, and went back to the house together. Qingwen told Xiren all the recent things that happened in the mansion.

Xiren folded the skirt, jacket and cloak and put them back in the cabinet while listening to Qingwen's words.

In fact, they were all trivial matters. It was nothing more than Baoyu had another quarrel in the family school, and came back angrily to rest for five or six days; Jia Zheng stayed in Aunt Zhao's room for two more nights. Pride, don't go to greet...

"There's only one thing, you missed it, but it's really a pity!" Qingwen picked up a piece of red bean cake and tasted it slowly.

"Really?" Xi Jinping smiled calmly, deliberately ignoring Qingwen's words.

Sure enough, before Xiren finished folding a cloak, Qingwen wiped her fingers with a handkerchief indiscriminately, and said angrily, "It's so boring! I don't know where you learned the skill of nourishing qi, you are almost as good as the monks in the temple." Already!"

"Don't worry," Xiren smiled, "When I become a Buddha, I will be the first to save you as an immortal!"

"Who cares!" Qingwen curled her lips, but she couldn't hold back after all, she didn't intend to show any tricks, and pretended to be mysterious, "Actually, the first big event in our mansion is the entry of Miss Lin from Yangzhou. !"

"Miss Lin?" Xiren took off the white flower from the hairpin, "You are the only daughter married to Aunt Min in Yangzhou?"

"Exactly!" Qingwen glanced at the white flowers that Xiren put in the dressing box, and her exuberant chatter was a little weaker, "The old lady loves Miss Lin very much, and she specially left her in the Bisha cabinet, and even Baoyu wanted to retire." One shot. However, Baoyu himself is very happy."

"The Bisha cabinet?" Xiren thought about the location, "It's not far from us."

"Let you guess again." Qingwen leaned on the quilt boredly, and glanced at Xiren, "The old lady said she would move Baoyu away, but Baoyu insisted on it."

"It's like his temper." Xiren shook his head.

The two chatted for a while, and Xiren had already seen what had happened in the mansion over the past few days.Qingwen had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she simply stayed in the room, preparing to catch up on sleep.The attacker wanted to greet the owners of each house, and the two separated.

When Xiren came back from all the rooms, it was already dark.

Baoyu still lives in the same place, and Xiren is not afraid that he will not be able to find a place.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Baoyu sitting opposite a well-mannered and well-spoken little girl, and they solved a delicate nine-linked ring together.

Although they had never met each other before, when they first met, Xiren could tell at a glance that this was the Crimson Pearl Fairy who was still crying in the lower realm.

"Xiren, you're back?" Baoyu said pleasantly when he saw Xiren.

"Yes." The attacker greeted the two masters, "I just came back from Lian's second grandma, and she told me that the emerald green carved pine pendant you wanted was given to Qing Ke by the second master a while ago. Mr. Zhan."

Naturally, Baoyu didn't dare to reach out to Jia Zheng, so he waved his hand, "That's fine."

Xiren nodded in response.

"Xi Ren, something about your family..." Baoyu saw that although Xi Ren had never been filial, he only chose plain and undecorated clothes, and there were only two silver hairpins on his head, and a pair of The small jade plug the size of a grain of rice has also lost a lot of weight.

"It's been sent away." Xiren lowered his head, unwilling to say any more.

This entire afternoon, from Jiamu to Sister Feng, every time Xiren returned to his master, he would tell how Hua's father was seriously ill and how Hua's family was buried, and then listened to a bunch of embarrassing words of comfort... …

Everyone knows their own affairs, no matter how others sigh and sigh, they are just spectators who have nothing to do with themselves.

Fortunately, Baoyu has always been careful in this regard. Seeing Xiren showing a slightly tired look, he thoughtfully said, "You have been busy all day today, so go down and rest first."

"Then I'll be lazy for a while today, thank you for your understanding." Xi Ren thanked.

"You just go, I have sister Yuanyang here, there is nothing wrong with it." Baoyu smiled tolerantly.

"Look at my memory!" When Baoyu mentioned the mandarin duck, Xiren remembered, "When I went back to the old lady in the afternoon, the old lady asked me to take over the work from the mandarin duck earlier."

"I'll forget if you don't tell me." Baoyu laughed, "The old lady left Sister Yuanyang, and she couldn't even sleep well at night. Sister Yuanyang has been running at both ends these days. Fortunately, the two sides are not far away, otherwise her legs would be lost. Run broke."

"So hard?" Xiren was very sympathetic.

In this case, it is not easy to delay the attacker.She bid farewell to Bao Dai and the two, turned and went out, ready to find Yuanyang to hand over the affairs, so as to save Jia Mu from worrying.

Originally Xiren wanted to entrust Baoyu to go to Foreman Li's house with tea in private to scare him and demand the money.But today, with Daiyu by my side, this kind of law is not passed on to everyone, Xiren had no choice but to press it for the time being, and find another time.
