dream of red mansion

Shi Daiyu didn't know what came to her mind, she was about to ask a question, but stopped again.

Jia Qing said: "Sister Lin, just say what you have to say, and I will answer my questions for you if I can answer."

Seeing everyone looking at her, Daiyu blushed and said in a low voice: "I was thinking that Miss Xian'er lives there...Yanyulou, it's not a good place to listen to the name, second brother goes to that kind of place what……"

Although she is not sure that Yanyulou is a brothel, Daiyu has read a lot of books since she was a child, and she is naturally intelligent, so she knows where such names are generally used.

She said this, except that Xichun was still young and didn't understand.Tanchun Yingchun's face also slowly turned red, and Tanchun glared at Jia Qing.

But Jia Baoyu laughed from the side and said: "What's the matter, famous people have always been romantic! As handsome as the second younger brother, and full of talents, it is very easy to be favored by beautiful women..."

Jia Baoyu made a rare joke about Jia Qing.

Lin Daiyu spat when she heard the words: "Bah, you are not a good person!"

Jia Qing sweated profusely, thinking they didn't understand these things.It seems that he still underestimated the precocity of the ancients!

"Ahem, I'm just with friends...just with friends..."

Jia Qing didn't know how to explain, so he could only speak vaguely.

Although the sisters said they understood a little bit, at least they didn't dare to discuss it too deeply, so they didn't ask further questions for a while.

Jia Qing quickly changed the subject and said: "It's okay to be idle around, why don't I teach you how to play a game."

Chapter 61 Your Majesty is such a good sword

When she heard that she was going to play a game, Xichun was the most excited. She ran over and took Jia Qing's hand and said, "What game? I want to play too!"

"Okay, okay, brother will teach my sister how to play later..."

Carrying Xichun in his arms, Jia Qing said to Jia Baoyu, "Second brother Bao, do you have that kind of thin and hard paper here?"

Baoyu said, "Hard? Can rice paper work?"

Jia Qing shook his head and said, "No, it's still too soft."

Jia Baoyu couldn't help it, and said: "Xuan paper is not good, what is the second brother going to do?"

Jia Qing said: "The game I want to teach everyone must have such a thing. It's like the old ancestors must have dominoes when they play cards."

The sisters also shook their heads and said they didn't know what kind of thin and hard paper it was.

"Second Master Qing, can you see the cardboard for drawing shoe patterns?"

Xiren, who had been standing by the side and had never spoken before, spoke at this moment.

Jia Qing looked at the "famous" Xiren next to him, who was charming and charming, and was looking at him with a submissive face at this time, his expression was somewhat similar to that of Xie Luan.

Shaking his head, Jia Qing said: "No, the hardness is enough, but it's too thick."

Jia Qing has also seen the model used for the soles of Cui Liuna shoes, the paper is at least two or three millimeters thick.

Xiren smiled lightly and said, "I guess it's because the masters don't often see these jobs...the cut out shoe samples are of course very thick, otherwise they will be torn soon after taking them out. But when I first started drawing, I used But the cardboard is very thin, which is also good for trimming. I have some here, and I will show it to Master Qing.”

Then he went into the room.After a while, a piece of cardboard was taken out.

"Second Master Qing, look at this."

Jia Qing took it, and it felt extremely smooth as soon as he started, so he secretly said good.Looking at it again, although it is still a little thick, it is barely usable.

Gently folded and folded, the hardness is still there.Well, that's it!

So he said to Xiren, "That's right, it's this kind of cardboard. I don't know if sister Xiren still has this kind of cardboard. I want at least five pieces of this size."

That's right, what Jia Qing wants to do is poker, which is popular in later generations.

Xi Ren said: "I don't have any here, but there must be Aunt Wu in the spinning department."

"Then I'd like to trouble Sister Xiren to go there for you. Oh, by the way, take this with you, you can't let them spin the bill..."

As Jia Qing said, he put Xichun down, took out an ingot of one or two grain silver from his bosom, and handed it to Xiren.

Xiren first took a look at Jia Baoyu, seeing his indifferent expression, so he had to make the decision for him.

"Look at what Second Master said, it's not worth much at all, it's just a matter of one sentence, how can it be used so much. Besides, in our Second Master's house, there is no such thing as asking you to pay for money..."

Jia Qing said with a smile: "You can't let Xiren's sister go for nothing, right? If you don't need it, just treat it as a reward for your sister."

Xiren was still waiting to speak, but Jia Baoyu became impatient, and said to Xiren, "You can take what the second brother gave you! You don't have to feel sorry for him, the second brother has a lot of money..."

Attacking people like this just gave up, since the second master doesn't care, why should I worry about it.Then he took the silver and went out.

After Xiren left, just as Tanchun wanted to ask Jia Qing what he was going to do, Daiyu said to Jia Baoyu, "How does Brother Bao know that Second Brother has a lot of money?"

Jia Baoyu smiled smugly, and was about to show off, but when Daiyu raised her eyes, he gave up.Said: "Second brother got a sum of 5000 taels of silver because of the soap recipe a few years ago!"

"Ten taels?"

It's no wonder Tanchun was surprised, you know they only have two taels of silver a month. 5000 taels, it is estimated that only when she gets married will the mansion give so much silver taels.

Although Daiyu and the others didn't pay much attention to silver, they also knew that 5000 taels was indeed a lot, and they all looked at Jia Qing for verification.

Jia Qing didn't hide anything, nodded and said, "That's true, but how did Second Brother Bao know?"

"I heard what Sister Feng said."

Daiyu smiled and said, "I didn't expect second elder brother's soap to earn money, ho ho, then if we want to use it in the future, will we have to pay money?"

Listening to Daiyu's joke, Jia Qing said carelessly: "That is necessary..."

The eyes of the sisters stared immediately, and Jia Qing immediately changed the subject: "That must be impossible. Of course, the sisters will be free for life if they want to use it."

The sisters suddenly showed a look of knowing you.Jia Qing went on to say: "Originally, the fact that I am a rich man was well concealed, but today since I was exposed by the second elder brother Bao, I will also pretend to be generous. If you have any gifts you want, just tell me, Guaranteed to satisfy you! There is only one chance."

Hearing that there was a gift, Xichun beside him was the happiest, and said, "I want to eat big peaches!"

Daiyu laughed and said, "Hey, little sister Xichun asked for a good gift, let me see how my second brother can be satisfied..."

Jia Qing smiled and pulled Tie Xichun's face, and said softly: "There are no peaches in this season, my sister can't be satisfied with this gift."

Xiao Xichun turned her face when she heard the words, she was not teasing Jia Qing, she really wanted to eat big peaches...

Seeing Xichun like this, Jia Qing was thinking that he might find a way to grow some out-of-season fruits in the future.However, there is no condition yet, and my own warm room is not doing well, mainly because it is not easy to "construct large-scale construction" in Ningguo Mansion, and it is okay to barely put some flowers and plants.

"I saw the painting my sister gave me last time. It's very good. I like it very much. Why don't I give my sister a set of drawing tools?"

Xichun thought about it, anyway, the peaches are gone, and she also likes to draw, so she nodded.
