[comprehensive] superior skills

There was an eerie silence in the room.

Unexpectedly, a flustered boy ran in from the door, kowtowed in front of Jia Mu and said repeatedly: "Yesterday, the eldest girl in our house somehow got the prince's favor, and she has already accepted her as Gege. The prince also said, Let the eldest girl be wronged for a few days, and then please seal the side Fujin when there is a good news in the future. The master asked the servants to come to the old lady to announce the good news, and asked the wife to pack some useful things for the eldest girl, and send it later."

"What? What you said is true!"

Mother Jia stood up abruptly, pointed to the boy and asked, "Where did your master get the letter?"

The young man kowtowed again, and replied loudly: "The prince personally sent someone to the mansion to say, and said that the eldest girl and the wife and old lady should meet when it is convenient, so the master then sent the boy to ask the wife The eldest girl prepares what is suitable for use."

Mrs. Wang cried with joy when she heard this, "This is really God's blessing, my Yuanchun has finally come to an end!"

Jia's mother was overjoyed, and she repeatedly called for the second master to come over to talk in person, and asked Wang Xifeng to open the warehouse and pick some good ones to send to Gege.

All the young girls in the house avoided, and Song Ci took the opportunity to go to Sanchun's residence with Sister Lin.

At this time, the Grand View Garden had not yet been built in Rongfu, so the girls could only joke around in the three huts or the gazebo in the courtyard.

Jia Baoyu sighed as soon as he entered the door, "It's not enough for Big Sister to stay there for ten years, but she wants to stay for a long time. It will be difficult to see you again in the future."

Li Wan shook his head and said, "Baoyu's words are wrong. It's better for a big girl to have her whole life than to serve others in the past. What's more, the prince is the crown prince. Sooner or later, he will ascend to the top. Isn't it comparable to today."

Shi Xiangyun smiled and said: "Brother love, now that the big sister has someone else, you can't bear it. In the future, all these sisters will leave, and you will be the only one left. What should I do?"

Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment, just staring at Sister Lin, "If you want to leave, take me with you, I won't leave you."

Lin Daiyu turned around and spat on Baoyu lightly, "It's a pity that my father said yesterday that you are more and more familiar with the world, I really should let him see how stupid you are!"

"Okay, Brother Bao, these words are not what us girls should say, and you are getting older every day, so you should learn to avoid it."

Xue Baochai stepped forward to take Shi Xiangyun's hand, and persuaded in a gentle voice: "Today, everyone is here, and there is another sister from the Zhen family. It should be lively and lively. Why don't we take advantage of the happy event in the mansion today, and our sisters also present Have a good time at the table.”

"The last time we met, Sister Bao said that she and Sister Zhen's family seemed like old acquaintances, but I didn't expect to really get together today," Shi Xiangyun asked curiously, "Sister Zhen is cute and writes poems? What do you do on weekdays to relieve boredom?"

Song Ci smiled softly, "I'm the least educated person, and I can't compare to the poetic charm of the girls. I'm just a layman, but I learned to make some gadgets from my master."

Because Song Ci was used to traveling alone, and he didn't buy a servant girl, he borrowed Sister Lin's servant girl, Zijuan, to use it.

She asked Zijuan to present the gifts she brought, "I made these by myself, if the sisters and sister-in-law don't dislike them, they can keep them for fun."

The gifts Song Ci brought were all the little toys that the three dwarf brothers had made to relieve her boredom. There were too many in their hands to count, so it would be better to give them to friends who were close to each other than to keep them in vain.

Although these things are inconspicuous in the magic world, they are full of childishness, such as a small wooden monkey doll that can climb trees by itself, a woodpecker clock that knows the hour, a crystal ball with a beautiful fish hidden, and more than a dozen tricks. Come out, the girls can't take their eyes off.

Jia Baoyu admired from the heart: "My sister really has a pair of skillful hands. These things are much more interesting than making crooked poems!"

"Just now the old lady said I was eccentric, but I think Sister Zhen is really eccentric!"

Lin Daiyu played with the translucent crystal ball, shook the little fish inside and said, "Why didn't my sister play with it at home before, but now I see other sisters and offer treasures instead!"

Song Ci grabbed Sister Lin's arm, pointed at her pretty face and said with a smile, "I can't argue with you, so I simply don't say anything."

Even Li Wan, who has always been sullen, couldn't help choosing the chime clock for his son, "With this reminder, Lan'er doesn't have to worry about getting tired from reading."

Sanchun also chirped to choose the gift she wanted, but Xue Baochai looked at it with a smile and did not step forward.

"Sister Bao, look at this, how fun it is!"

Shi Xiangyun put the little wooden monkey on the back of his hand, and watched it climb up his shoulders, "I don't know what kind of mechanism makes it inside, it's so dexterous, it looks like it's alive."

Xue Baochai looked at the ingenious organ arrangements on the table, and was even more afraid to confirm the conjecture in his heart.

If Xiangling had such ability back then, how could she have fallen into the hands of a kidnapper, but she was unwilling to let her really admit that she had misidentified someone.

Song Ci ignored the entanglement in Miss Xue's heart, and kept talking and joking with the girls.

When it was time for lunch, Miss Ping'er came over on behalf of Second Mistress, saying that the old lady let the girls use it for themselves, so there was no need to go there.

Lin Daiyu held on to Ping'er, "You came just in time, you just brought some rare things from home, you helped to clean them up, and brought them over for us to have a drink with."

At this time, two women brought up a large heavy basket. Miss Ping'er stepped forward to take a look, and said in surprise: "It's such a rare item, where did it come from?"

As soon as the girls heard her words, they all gathered around, and saw that the basket was full of many sea creatures with long pincers and colorful markings all over their bodies, and they all wanted to crawl out of the basket with their teeth and claws.

"I have to ask my good sister," Sister Lin pulled Song Ci, and said with a smile: "She just sent a basket home this morning, and I came here before I tasted it, so I must give it to you. Just eat here."

Song Ci grabbed a big lobster and showed the girls one by one, "This is a specialty of foreign countries, also called crayfish. It tastes much fresher than the local shrimp and crab. Whether it is steamed or braised in brown sauce, it will do."

"It's not easy for girls to enjoy such a rare thing."

Li Wan said to Ping'er: "Why don't I make the decision and send half to the old lady, and let the girls enjoy the rest?"

Sanchun remained silent, and Sister Lin glanced at Song Ci, seeing that she had no objection, she said, "Since that's the case, let's do whatever we want, just wait for the table."

A group of people chatted and laughed and went to the garden, and just sat around the table, a little maid served many plates of fresh tea and fruits.

Song Ci picked up the tea cake and tasted it. The taste was much better than that sold in the old shop, so he couldn't help but ate two extra yuan with the tea.

Jia Tanchun looked at it and said with a smile: "Sister Zhen doesn't keep her stomach for the banquet, but eats this instead."

Shi Xiangyun also laughed and said: "Maybe Zhen's sister is used to eating crayfish, but she has never eaten tea cakes in the mansion!"

Seeing Song Ci nodding his head seriously, even the most shy Jia Yingchun laughed.

While talking, a strong fragrance came blowing in the breeze, the youngest Xichun stood up and looked at the woman who came over with a food box in the distance and said: "It's amazing, this is too fragrant, I just smell it. Very hungry."

Later the mother-in-law came up to serve three meals of lobsters, and added a lot of snacks with wine, and said with a pile of smiles: "Miss Ping said, let the girls take it easy, don't drink when you are in a hurry."

Li Wan waved her hand, "Don't worry, I'm watching them."

Jia Baoyu took a bite of the snow-white shrimp meat, "Have the old ladies and wives eaten? Sister Feng has also eaten?"

The mother-in-law quickly replied: "The old lady's side is about to start the banquet. Uncle Ningfu Zhen also came earlier."

Li Wan nodded and let the mother-in-law do her own work.

Jia Xichun asked while eating: "What is the big brother doing here?"

"Who knows, maybe it smells like you!" Shi Xiangyun broke open a piece of claw foot with his bare hands, and ate it with the juice on the plate.

Xue Baochai ate the food without saying a word, but she was thinking for no reason in her heart, if it hadn't been for her brother's accident, she might have received the good news from the palace, and would her mother also be happy to hold a feast...

Thinking of this, she involuntarily glanced at Song Ci, then silently lowered her head.

Rongqing hall

Shi Taijun was leaning on the couch, the old man and wife sitting under his hands, as well as Jia Zhen, Jia Rong, father and son who came over specially from the Ning Mansion, were all beaming.

Putting down the tea bowl, Jia Zhen beamed and said, "Our family is about to become an empress!"

Jia Zheng sat still, "It's too early to say that."

Jia Rong, who was standing behind his father, said with a hippie smile, "How old are the saints? It's not a matter of time."

Jia Zhen slapped the table and scolded her son: "The elders are talking, there is no reason for you to interrupt, get out of the door and wait!"

Jia Rong didn't dare to refute, she bowed her head and went out.

Wang Xifeng persuaded with a smile: "Big brother, why bother to be angry, Rong'er is also kind."

Mother Jia sighed, "His child doesn't know the importance of his family, so I can't say such things anymore. The eldest girl finally got what she is today, and it's not too late to wait for a few years. The family owed her a dowry, so it's time to take care of it." Just get ready."

"That's what the old lady said," Mrs. Wang asked afterwards, "It's just that Yuanchun's position is there. If I give too much, I'm afraid it will hinder the eyes of the Crown Princess."

Mrs. Xing was afraid that her mother-in-law would empty out the house for the sake of the second room, so she hurriedly said: "The second wife is right, Yuan Chun is a newcomer, it's better to keep your own place."

Mother Jia squinted at her from the corner of her eye, and snorted coldly, "I can't have any large decorations, and I can't use bank notes? Yuan Chun was already in a difficult situation in the palace, and you all held her back, and only focused on that spot." Shallow things, if she is not good, what good can you do?"

Mrs. Xing bowed her head to be scolded, the handkerchief in her hand was almost torn to pieces.

Mrs. Wang didn't know what to think of, her eyes turned red, and Aunt Xue, who was next to her, patted her sister's hand and said to Jia's mother who was still angry: "Old lady, there is no possibility that we are relatives. For the sake of it, only 5 taels of silver will be given out, and the right is to be happy."

Shi Taijun laughed when he heard the words, "It's good for my concubine to have such a heart, better than those who don't know what to do."

Jia Zhen followed up and said: "Our mansion also gave 5 taels of silver to put makeup on Ge Ge."

Jia Amnesty saw that he couldn't escape, so he had to promise 3 taels of silver, which hurt Mrs. Xing very much.

Only then did Shi Taijun nod in satisfaction, "The public will give you 5 taels of silver plus some exquisite jewellery, and I will add another 5 taels from my private house to Yuan Yatou, so as not to upset the child."

Mrs. Wang stood up and said with tears in her eyes, "I thank the old lady on behalf of Yuanchun."

Wang Xifeng saw that the Kungfu and the two houses had accumulated tens of thousands of taels of dowry for the eldest girl, and she couldn't help but sighed bitterly: "Oh, I only regret that I didn't reincarnate as the granddaughter of the old lady. It’s a good thing, I can only watch it!”

Mother Jia laughed so hard that she almost lost her breath, and instructed the big maid next to her, "Yuanyang, drink your second grandma a few glasses of wine for me at the banquet later, so that she won't just think about dodging on the sidelines!"

The author has something to say:

Song Ci: It's too early to have a dream in broad daylight.

Shi Taijun: The old woman has endured you for a long time!
