Chapter 23 The Red Chamber (23)

&1t;script>Red Building 23

But Jia Baoyu was still living in the old lady's warm room because of the cold weather. He lived inside and outside with Shi Xiangyun.

After the people dispersed, he was still excited. He just pulled Xiren and said, "I thought our girl was the most beautiful in the world. I don't want the eldest sister of the Lin family to be really good. She is different from Lin Meimei."

Xiren smiled gently on his face, but said, "My master, let's just talk about it at home, don't let others hear it. I looked at Miss Lin, who is a very serious person. I may not like these jokes. Second master should avoid it in the future."

"Xiren is right." Shi Xiangyun's voice came from inside, "It's not that my second brother didn't see her. She has such a powerful temperament. Whoever is okay to provoke her what to do?"

"I'm pretty good at it, but I have a bit of Sister Feng's temperament." Baoyu praised.

Shi Xiangyun snorted, "You'll be the new sister, we'll be left with the old sisters by you."

Jia Baoyu ran to the inner room in a small coat and smiled, "What are you talking nonsense again?"

Shi Xiangyun was already lying on the verge. He didn't expect him to run in and just covered the quilt and laughed, "I just said something casually. Are you serious again?"

He smiled like a flower, but he asked Baoyu to be crazy about it.

Xiren chased after him, and saw Cuilu just looking at him, he felt a little displeased. He pulled Baoyu out: "Second Master, take a break quickly. There is a new customer at home, and I'm afraid it will be a lively day tomorrow. Get up late and make a joke. Don't quarrel at the girl to rest."

Baoyu then looked at Xiangyun and went out reluctantly.

Lin Yutong had just arrived at Jia's house and was not sleeping soundly. She simply entered the space in the middle of the night. After sleeping for two hours, she felt more energetic. She took care of the space and harvested the vegetables. Seeing that the fruit trees planted around the space and growing well, she nodded with satisfaction.

Once you enter the Jia family, your own collection and sorting work can begin. When you have time, you can organize the recipes and draw pictures of clothes and decorations. I guess life will not be sad.

Because I couldn't sleep, I got up very early. I even cooked myself and made a breakfast.

Lin Yuyang has the habit of getting up early to study. After reading two chapters, he saw his sister's girl calling for dinner.

"After the meal, Brother Yang went to the Zhang family and greeted her uncle. In addition, I asked about your study arrangements. I prepared a gift for the female members of the Zhang family and said, I wanted to go to see the elders, but I didn't know whether it was convenient or not." Lin Yutong said carefully.

Because Jia Min, the female family members of the two families have not been in contact for a long time. It is difficult for him to go there rashly. It is better to take a look at the slightest first.

Lin Yuyang nodded and agreed. "When yesterday came, I told Lin Ping to send a post to the Zhang family. He replied that I could go there anytime. I guess it would be appropriate to visit me when I waited for the next court."

Lin Yutong nodded with satisfaction. My younger brother can stand alone.

Lin Daiyu was eating and listening in a while. Obviously, she was not very interested in these social interactions.

Lin Ping looked at her brother, and she didn't worry about her. She turned around and asked someone to take a box and beat her sister-in-law, "You go and send this to Lian**'s breasts. This is a thing for the elder sister."

The eldest sister is talking about Qiaojie. However, Liu Laolao must have not come yet. Qiaojie is not called Qiaojie now.

Yesterday, I gave a gift from Daliu. Today, this box is the twelve zodiac signs of jade carvings, which is the right etiquette. If you want to live a comfortable life in the Jia family, Wang Xifeng is a person who must be close friends. With her, anyone who wants to secretly stumbling is probably not easy. Besides, these gadgets are carved by themselves in their own jade shop.

After Lin Yutong took over, the jade shop had a new business, which was to collect damaged jade. The price was more expensive than pawn shops, but it was much cheaper than collecting whole pieces of jade. Using these damaged jades to re-carve, whether it was or to give it to others, was extremely cost-effective. For those wealthy families, their servants would always find ways to mess with them. If the things were broken, they would report damage, and if they saw the fragments, they would have explained it.

This idea made the business of the jade shop more than one layer. When you meet good jade, it would be decent to keep it for others. Take this box of twelve zodiac signs, which are a broken ornament. The fragments vary in size and shape. The large ones are carved into cows, the small ones are carved into rats, the round ones are carved into pigs, and the long ones are carved into snakes. It only costs ten taels of silver, but this set of ornaments is not 200 taels after one hand. After all, jade is good jade. In addition, some small pieces of scraps are also embedded in some decorations, so it is still good to appreciate people.

Wang Xifeng was extremely happy to receive this thing.

"It's hard for you girls to be willing." Wang Xifeng asked Ping'er to put away the things and politely let Sister Ping sit down.

Sister Ping sat on her feet and said, "Our girl said that only the eldest sister can play with this little thing at home, so let's take it for the girl to play with."

After sending Sister Ping away, Ping'er smiled and said, "It's really a good person."

"I'll just say it! You won't misread the people. Count the girls at home. If the eldest girl enters the palace, luck may be in the future. I won't talk about this. The second girl is a clay Buddha, the fourth girl is still young, but she is cold-hearted. The third girl is good at her hands and mouths. That's..." Wang Xifeng shook her head.

"It's just that I didn't crawl out of my wife's belly." Ping'er smiled.

"Can the big girls in the Lin family crawl out of their aunt's belly? They are all born in vain? You can compare them carefully and then taste the difference." Wang Xifeng smiled.

"Miss Three seems to be unconfident." Ping'er whispered.

"Looking at the wife's face, I lacked some confidence and responsibility." Wang Xifeng shook her head, as if she was a pity. She pointed and said, "This girl from the Shi family cannot be said to be unintentional or something else, but she is not her turn in business. The one from the Xue family is very polite, but she doesn't speak for herself. Lin Meimei is a beauty lamp, with a delicate heart, but her mind is not on earthly affairs. In the past, she had to consider many things by herself. Now, she has a capable sister who has become more extraordinary."

The gift I gave to everyone yesterday came with another one, which was said to be given by Daiyu. In fact, you can tell at a glance that this was the big girl putting gold on her face to her sister. She herself didn't have that intention.

It was really a surprise that Wang Xifeng had. After breakfast, Lin Daiyu beat the girl to give gifts everywhere. She either had a painting or a few pens or a few kinds of paint. She was very casual.

Lin Yutong didn't say anything, there was nothing to do with giving gifts between girls.

After Lin Daiyu finished the arrangement, she explained to Lin Yutong, "Sister, it's not that I don't want to go to the Zhang family. It's embarrassing that I'm going, whether it's the Zhang family or the Jia family. This matter has something to do with my mother. If my sister goes, it's just that I'm in poor health. My brother is studying at someone's house, so don't ask the master to be uncomfortable."

Lin Yutong was stunned by what she said. Seeing that she knew everything in her heart, Lin Yutong had nothing to worry about.

The two sisters were talking in unison, and they heard the girl outside report that it was the girls who came with Mr. Bao.

Lin Yutong didn't mind letting Lin Daiyu know her attitude towards Jia Baoyu, so she stood up and said, "Please invite a few girls in. In addition, she told Mr. Bao Er to tell Mr. Bao Er that Brother Yang was out and there was no one to entertain him today. I won't invite Mr. Bao Er to come in and sit down."

Lin Daiyu's mouth grew up instantly, and she looked at Lin Yutong's serious face. She swallowed the words she had just said again.

It seemed as if I remembered the way I and Baoyu were when I met yesterday, so I was afraid that my sister would be unhappy.

Many habits seem to have to be changed.

The people outside the door were much more surprised than Lin Daiyu. Jia Baoyu had never been rejected.

"I won't look for cousin Lin, I'll look for sister Lin. Sister can be in the house." As he said that, he was about to go inside.

The woman guarding the door was the old man from the Lin family. She was not willing to let him in. "My master's instructions, please don't let me wait."

Shi Xiangyun laughed, followed Sanchun and Xue Baochai in, turned around and made faces at Jia Baoyu, "I finally saw that some people were defeated."

Jia Baoyu pouted, and saw that the woman was really unwilling to give in, so she turned around and turned around and left step by step.

"It's still the eldest sister of the Lin family who is powerful. Even the second brother dares to block the door." Shi Xiangyun smiled when she came in.

Lin Yutong looked puzzled, "What did you say? It's really inconvenient for me to entertain male guests today. But I offended Mr. Bao, how could I feel embarrassed?" She called Chun'er, "You go and pick a gift, and I really don't know Mr. Bao is going to come to the door, so I told him to slap in a hurry. When my brother comes back, I ask him to forgive me. It's really not disrespectful to him."

Chun'er responded and turned around and went out.

Since he is a man, let's follow the rules of men. There are no men at home and they will not receive male guests. If you blame her for this, she will not be afraid.

However, Shi Xiangyun's words may have been unintentional. Perhaps he felt that everyone was having a random joke, and it was not really true. But after all, it was not good to spread.

This servant of the Jia family couldn't say anything.

She asked Chun'er to go, and went with great pleasure, and apologized with great fanfare. She also told people to know who she was.

After hearing this, Shi Xiangyun laughed, "Sister Lin is really not a joke, but the sisters are just funny. Why did she apologize? The second brother is not that kind of person."

Lin Yutong didn't answer the conversation and asked all the girls to sit down with a smile.

These girls really have their own beauty. Although they are young, they look a bit beautiful.

"What are the eldest sister busy with?" Xue Baochai smiled, "We are still afraid that we will be prone to disturb us."

"Miss Xue, you are kind." Lin Yutong nodded at Xue Baochai. As for the sisters, let's forget it. She smiled, "It's all about family affairs, it's very trivial. It's nothing important."

Tanchun unexpectedly glanced at Lin Yutong. It was enviable that he did not give the Xue family face so much.

Xue Baochai is not bad, it is very good. But is her sister not bad? She always calls her sister Xuexuebao's steady and dignifiedness. She is a daughter in a marquis, but why is she not as good as a girl from a royal business? She is not unresentful in her heart.

It is rare that such a person who has no face to be born. She has a little more recognition in her heart.

When Lin Daiyu heard this, she knew her sister's attitude towards Sister Bao. She sighed in her heart and stopped talking.

Xue Baochai's expression remained unchanged, and instead said, "This is true. Isn't this what family affairs are like? I'm afraid that this girl, Pin'er, is impatient with these mundane things."

Lin Daiyu's face changed and she remembered what her sister said about taking the word. No one else called it, so why is it that only Sister Bao called it like this?

Lin Yutong showed a look of confusion: "Who is Pin'er?"

She looked at the girls with confusion, as if she really didn't know.

Xue Baochai froze immediately.

Shi Xiangyun was quick-talking. After looking at the furnishings of the house, she continued with a smile: "This is an allusion. It is understandable that Sister Lin doesn't know."

As soon as she was about to take it down, Lin Daiyu took over the conversation, "Don't talk too much. Everyone forgot the jokes when she was a child. You remember. Sister Bao, don't call me again. I'm afraid I won't get it easily. It's okay to teach me a lesson, but I'm afraid I'll write a letter to my second uncle, and someone is going to eat the board again."

She wisely lifted Lin Ruhai out. Lin Yutong nodded with satisfaction. She let the Buddha down and was curious and stopped asking.

Xue Baochai's face suddenly couldn't get down.

At this time, Xichun spoke, "I saw paint on the table, but my sister also likes to paint."

"It's not just painting, it's just painting some decorations and clothes. I'm idle and idle. I don't like those poems and lyrics. It's just this one that can make time. Lin Yutong didn't hide her shortcomings at all. In this Jia family, there is absolutely no girl who can't write poetry. Even Xiangling can write a few sentences. She would say it early to save herself from being ugly.

"Sister can't write poetry." Shi Xiangyun said in surprise: "Last night, my second brother and I said we wanted to start a poetry club. Now there is one more person missing."

"I'm afraid Sister Lin is modest." Xue Baochai smiled and said, "Why are you, a solid girl, taking it seriously?"

Lin Daiyu knew about her sister's situation. She said, "My sister is really not humble. She is really not good at this. My father also said that everyone has different talents and has not forced us sisters to learn the same thing."

Xue Baochai looked at Lin Yutong in surprise and said, "So that's it."

Lin Yutong smiled and said, "I can't write poetry in the poetry club, but I still have this appreciation ability for you to be the judge."

Tanchun smiled and said, "Now there are even invigilators. If you can't set up a poetry club, what's the best thing?"

The few people gathered together to discuss the affairs of the poetry club, which made Lin Yutong feel relieved.

But Chun'er took Li directly to Xiren and expressed her apology very clearly: "I really don't know what Master Bao Er is going, otherwise our young master would not go out anyway."

Xiren knew that the other party was afraid that he would not understand the temperament of his master, so he misunderstood. She didn't explain, but just smiled and said, "I'm so polite. It's mine, so I didn't ask in advance."

The two of them said goodbye politely. Xiren handed over the things to Musk Yue and collected them: "I'll go and say to my wife. I'm new here, so don't lose my courtesy."

Musk Moon responded, but he thought in his heart that this big girl from the Lin family had a scheming personality.

After hearing Xiren's report, Mrs. Wang nodded with satisfaction: "Since that's the case, you must inquire for Baoyu in the future before you can come to visit. Don't lose your etiquette as if you were today."

In Mrs. Wang's opinion, she is a good girl.
