Indulgence in the Red Chamber

Yin Si looked at the two women squatting on the ground, one was wearing a Xiangfei-colored mink-breasted narrow-sleeved long jacket, the other was wearing an eggplant purple white fox cloak, standing side by side, a beautiful young woman and a steady girl, It seems to match very well.So he smiled softly: "Second Grandma Lian from Rongguo Mansion personally brought the girl to play the piano for Lao Ba, she really has a heart."

"It's the blessing of the servants that Master Ba is happy. If the servants are careless in serving the masters, the slaves will really die." Sister Feng smiled slightly and was generous.She is indeed a well-informed woman.

"Get up. Sit down and talk." Yinsi smiled, thinking that this woman is really all-round.Originally, there was a bit of finding fault, but she resolved it so easily.It's really not good for me to trouble them again.However, the Rongguo Mansion has always been close to the prince, and it is well known that he and the prince are not in harmony.They are so flattering, they must have intentions.

"Thank you Ba Ye." Sister Feng and Baochai stood up and looked at Daiyu with a smile.Indigo and Xueyan moved two stools together and put them under their hands.

Daiyu got up, walked up to Sister Feng with a smile, and asked, "Why is Second Sister-in-law here?"

"Good sister. We accompany the old lady here to enjoy the plum blossoms and eat wine. I don't want to but I can see you." Sister Feng took Daiyu's hand and whispered.

"You guys know each other?" Brother Jiu Yinzhen looked at Xuan Ning and asked strangely.

"Miss Lin is the niece of the Rongguo Mansion. The old lady's granddaughter. They are very close relatives, why don't they know each other?" Yinsi smiled, picked up the wine glass and nodded to everyone, then poured out the wine in the glass drink it.

"Oh! That's how it is. There are a lot of things in my starling's stomach. If this is the case, let's all sit here, and there are no outsiders." Yinzhen said, nodding to Sister Feng and Baochai. The two got up, and the girl took them The stool is placed on Bihan's side.

"Yu'er, your soup is cold, don't eat it." Seeing that Daiyu was about to eat the pigeon soup with a spoon, Xuanning hurriedly stopped her.

Baochai was sitting between Sister Feng and Bihan, when she heard the voice, she looked sideways again, and saw the young man in blue raised his hand and snatched the spoon from Daiyu's hand, and then took the soup bowl and handed it to the girl behind him. .Secretly surprised in my heart: I haven't seen each other for less than a year, I didn't expect these two people to have climbed to such a high position.That former servant of Lin Ruhai's family is now sitting next to Brother Ba.Legend has it that he was very similar to the sixth prince Yin Zuo who disappeared before, so he was valued by the Long Live Lord and the imperial concubine in the palace. Now it seems that he is really good!Although his appearance and posture are completely different from those of the three elder brothers, his noble temperament is hard to hide.This person is so considerate to this Daiyu, and the two of them were very intimate at the beginning, why does the old lady still want to marry her into the house to be Baoyu's daughter-in-law?

"This girl called herself Baochai just now. I wonder if she is the daughter of Jia She or Jia Zheng in the Rongguo Mansion?" Seeing Baochai bowing her head in thought, Yinzhen liked it and turned her head to ask.

"Back to Master Jiu, the servant is not a girl from the Jia family. The servant's surname is Xue, from Jinling." Baochai did not dare to publicize her family background in front of Yinzhen, so she had to introduce herself simply.

"People from Jinling? Oh! Hehe..." Xuan Ning smiled after hearing this, and said to Yinsi: "I never thought that the old lady of Rongguo Mansion would bring a singer with her when she came out to enjoy the plum blossoms. Could it be that she had figured it out a long time ago?" How many elder brothers will come here, prepared in advance? In this way, their ears are really capable of repaying the gods."

Baochai immediately blushed, unable to conceal her shame and indignation, raised her head to meet Shang Xuanning's gaze, and said unhappily: "This young man is joking, why does the old lady bring a singer with her when she travels? I am the daughter of the Xue family in Jinling. I had a relationship with the young master in the south of the Yangtze River. The young master forgot, but I dare not forget. We were presumptuous that day, and I ask the young master to forgive me. How can you say something like this to pour dirty water on someone's head? .”

"Oh?" Xuan Ning smiled, then nodded, and looked at Baochai provocatively: "So that's the case. Just now you invited yourself to perform, presumably to please a few elder brothers, so I have some thoughts, as for Jinling The Xue family—I'm sorry, I really haven't heard of it."

"Young master." Sister Feng hurriedly turned her head to smooth things over, then looked at Yinsi again, got up and gave her a blessing, "Eight masters, nine masters and ten masters, my sister is still young, if she says something wrong, please invite a few masters." Don't be angry. This son may have some misunderstandings with my cousin, but please look at Sister Lin's face, and give our old lady some face, let the past things go by."

"Xuan Ning, has there been a misunderstanding between you?" Yin Si looked at Xuan Ning, and the abacus in his heart was flipping back and forth.This Xuan Ning is from Sibeile's residence, and he is very close to Sibeile.And the fourth child now clearly looks like he is wearing a pair of pants with the prince, but who can tell the hearts of the princes?If he can win over Xuan Ning, he can also give himself some bargaining chips. Even if he can't win over, it's okay. Anyway, when the sixth child was killed, many details point to the Prince's House. By the way, it's a good thing to separate the fourth child and the prince.What's more, now that Huang Ama loves this Xuan Ning so much, he must be a thorn in the prince's side. This person has a lot to do, and now he is a useful person.

"Misunderstanding? If someone pointed at Ba Ye's nose and said that Ba Ye was extorting money, would Ba Ye take it as a misunderstanding?" Xuan Ning smiled lightly. Obviously, he didn't have the guts to deal with that incident. When it was a misunderstanding, especially when this woman sat in front of him with such a complacent look, there was an inexplicable fire in his stomach.

False woman!

This is the famous lady that everyone recognized in the old society, a lady who is so hypocritical that she can murder anyone for her own benefit, and a lady who will do anything for her own goals?Ridiculous.

"Well, indeed. Such misunderstandings are really rare." Yinsi looked at Sister Feng, smiled and said, "The melody is the sound of nature, and so is the so-called sound of nature. Whether you are a human being or playing the piano, you have to let nature take its course." Good. The sound of the piano just now is not bad, but the work is too scheming, which will make the sound of the piano lose its color."

When Sister Feng and Baochai heard the words, they stood up quickly.After Yinsi finished speaking, Fang Ban knelt on the ground and agreed: Yes.Fang slowly withdrew.

Baochai went out of the room, took a few steps, then stopped suddenly, turned her head and glanced at the door bitterly, the anger in her heart could no longer be described in words.Xuan Ning, the god of evil, ruined his own good deeds with one word.And with this sentence, after the New Year's Eve to enter the palace and wait for election, she might be framed by something.Thinking about the uncertain and unpredictable future, the hatred in Baochai's heart is like the severe cold north wind, howling and sweeping the plum blossoms all over the mountains and plains.

After leaving the courtyard, Sister Feng sighed, looked at the pale Baochai, shook her head and said, "Why is my sister still doing this? We don't know anything about it. If I knew earlier, I would have done it for my sister." Cover and cover. Now this Mr. Ning is more precious than the elder brothers in the eyes of the Long Live Lord. I heard that the concubine Defei secretly went out of the palace to see him at Sibeile's house. Maybe we offended him What are you waiting for? Hey!" After finishing speaking, Sister Feng walked away on her own, leaving Baochai standing alone in the snow, looking bitterly at the courtyard gate that had just come out.

When this happens, there is no other way to do it.However, although Baochai is demure, she is not a person who just sits and waits for death. Besides, she has read a lot of miscellaneous books. Although strategy is not a word, she is not the kind of person who does nothing.

When Baochai entered the room, Sister Feng had already told Mother Jia the whole story.After hearing this, Mother Jia sighed and said to Aunt Xue: "I didn't expect there to be such a story. It just so happens that this young master is here today, so I can't let my aunt get what she wants. But my aunt shouldn't be too pessimistic, Miss Bao has no good looks. You are comparable to others, you can read and write, and you are also very good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. After entering the palace next year and waiting for election, think of other ways, which will definitely fulfill your ambitions."

Aunt Xue also regretted it in her heart. If she knew this, she would restrain herself and offend less people when she was in the south.It is too late to say these things now, and we have to find another way.So she had no choice but to go along with Jia Mu and say something insignificant.

The two sisters, Yingchun and Tanchun, saw that although Baochai had made this trip in vain, she was still generous, and they couldn't see any sense of loss, so they couldn't say much.But Baoyu heard that Daiyu was coming, so he had to ask Sister Feng for details, wishing he could fly to the front immediately and ask Daiyu to ask.

We were talking here, when suddenly two girls came in carrying a food box, and they came to Mother Jia and replied, "Old lady, these are four small dishes that Miss Lin in the yard in front asked the owner of this village to cook for the old lady." Miss Lin said, I can't leave at this time, I'll be free another day, and then go to the house to say hello to the old lady."

After hearing this, everyone praised Daiyu for being sensible.Mother Jia's face was also very bright when she heard this.Baoyu hurriedly came forward to open the food box, but saw that there were four delicacies in it, Song'e stewed pheasant, braised hare legs, sweet chestnut soup, and steamed plum cakes.They are all the special dishes in this villa, and they suit Jiamu's appetite.

"Sister Lin really respects the ancestors. These are the things the ancestors like to eat." Baoyu said with emotion.

"Yes, yes, brother Bao will learn more in the future." Sister Feng brought out all the dishes and placed them in front of Jiamu, and rewarded two little girls.Fang came back and asked Mother Jia if she had anything to say to Daiyu, and asked the two little girls to take her there.

Mother Jia thought for a while, sighed, shook her head and said, "I don't have anything to say. She can go out for a walk today, so it can be seen that the root cause of those diseases has been cured. She can be healthy, and I feel happy in my heart. This child has been born since childhood. She is very delicate. When her mother was around, letters would come over from time to time, asking me to find a good doctor for her. I also inquired every year until her mother passed away, but this worry was gone. Now she is well, she Mother is at ease under the Nine Springs." As she spoke, Jia's mother shed tears.

Aunt Xue and everyone hurriedly persuaded: "It's my aunt's good fortune that the old lady can think like this. Since the old lady misses her granddaughter, and the girl is right in front of her eyes, why don't you invite her to see her, and I like it in my heart."

"No need." Mother Jia waved her hand, "Give those two girls a big reward. When I get back, I'll tell you that I like the food she sent. I can't eat it right now, so I want to take it home and eat it at night."

The two maids agreed and took the reward before retiring.
