[Red Mansion] His mouth was opened

Inside the Honor Hall.

It was almost dusk, and the delicate smoky sunset glow dyed half of the sky, and inside the house, noisy laughter sounded from time to time.

Mrs. Wang came not too early or too late. When she entered the room, the first thing she saw was Baoyu who was talking to Daiyu. Subconsciously, she frowned, and then quickly relaxed.

"Okay, okay, you Feng Lazi's mouth is really tricky, didn't you see that they both blushed?" Jia Mu pretended to be angry.

Wang Xifeng covered her mouth with a smile, "Okay, it's me, but didn't the old lady just smile too? How can you say that I have a tricky mouth?"

With one word, everyone in the room covered their handkerchiefs and laughed.

Jia Mu feigned anger, "Could it be I or not?"

Mrs. Wang took the teacup from Yuanyang with a smile, stepped forward and passed it to Mother Jia, "The old lady is right, no one in this family can say that the old lady is not."

Mother Jia smiled and pointed at Wang Shi and Wang Xifeng, "Okay, you two, aunt and nephew, have joined hands, Daiyu, you have to let the old lady make the decision."

Lin Daiyu walked up to Jia Mu shyly and timidly, and said with a smile: "Old lady, I can't say enough about Sister-in-law Feng."

Although Wang's face was smiling, the smile didn't reach the eyes, it was faint, like smoke.

She just stood there without saying a word.

Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes, well, her aunt is determined not to like Miss Lin, she even made such a perfunctory effort to save face.

Tanchun picked up the teacup and took a sip, seemingly unaware of the undercurrent in the room.

There were so many people in the room just now, the old lady didn't mention anyone, but she mentioned Daiyu to let her make the decision. This seems to be a joke, but after careful consideration, it is not entirely true.

Who can help the old lady decide, of course it is the Jia family.

Mrs. Wang's refusal to answer this clearly means that she disagrees with Jia's mother's idea.

Baochai's fingers rested lightly on the bracelet on her wrist, touching it lightly, as if she was out of it.

There was some displeasure in Jiamu's eyes.

"By the way, old lady," Wang Xifeng quickly changed the topic, and patted his head with his hand, "I really don't have a good memory. When I came here, I clearly remembered something in my heart, but I didn't remember it until now."

Mrs. Wang went down the donkey, unwilling to get entangled in the matter of Baoyu and Daiyu any longer, she smiled and nodded Wang Xifeng's forehead, "Look at your memory, the whole family even praises you for your good memory, All the maids and wives in the mansion remember it clearly, and now it seems that it is clearly the people under there who are flattering."

Mother Jia said calmly: "It's not uncommon for Feng girl to take care of the housework and not remember it for a while."

"The old lady still loves me." Wang Xifeng said, "Just as I was thinking, the Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, girls and young men are getting taller day by day, and this clothes have to be made new."

If it weren't for the fact that Wang Xifeng managed the whole family obediently, this incident alone showed her dexterity.

According to the practice of Rongguo Mansion, the making of clothes has always been done by the courts receiving the fabrics, or it is not uncommon for the sewing women in the mansion to do it.

But how to distribute and divide the fabric is not an easy task.

Do not suffer from widowhood, but suffer from unevenness.

Sanchun in the mansion would not care about this matter, but Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai gave Wang Xifeng a headache.

Although Aunt Xue is in charge of Baochai's affairs, the whole family lives in the Rongguo Mansion, so you can't go around her.

Moreover, the old ladies and Mrs. Wang in the mansion are currently arguing over Baoyu's marriage. If this matter is not handled properly, Wang Xifeng will take it upon herself.

"So it's because of this." Jia Mu nodded, "You're a caring person, too, the sky is getting hot soon, so it's time to buy summer clothes."

Yuanyang smiled and said: "Old lady, we still have several high-quality materials in the storeroom. Didn't the old lady say a few days ago that she wanted to take them out for the girls and Master Bao to wear?"

Wang Xifeng breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't blame the mandarin duck for being so trusted by the old lady, and this alone showed it.

"Since that's the case, the old lady can't be stingy." Wang Xifeng said with a smile.

Mother Jia sighed deliberately: "Well, the old lady still wants to hide something, go ahead, you guys can pick it out yourself, the old lady will be generous today."

The girls suddenly laughed.

Mrs. Wang spoke at the right time: "Speaking of this matter, Huan'er should also make clothes."

Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, and looked at Mrs. Wang, only to see Mrs. Wang's benevolent and kind-hearted appearance. If she didn't know it, she might think that she was some living Bodhisattva.

Jia Mu said, "Then Tanchun, you can help Huan'er pick some horses later."

Speaking of this, Jia Mu suddenly frowned, and looked at Mrs. Wang: "Is Huan'er recovering?"

Tanchun's heart skipped a beat, with a vague premonition.

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Thanks to the old lady, it has been better for a few days."

Wang Xifeng immediately understood that her aunt was planning something, Jia Huan had never come here to pay her respects these days, if she was not recovering from her illness, then it would be fine, but if she recovered from her illness but did not come to pay her respects, that would be a great disobedience.

Jia Huan, although he said that he was often disgusted by others, he had never done anything evil, so why did her aunt fight tit for tat?He insisted on making Jia's mother hate him.

After Wang Xifeng figured it out, she stopped talking. Anyway, this matter was her aunt's business, and she didn't bother to help.

Jia Mu frowned, "Since it's done, I don't want to send someone to talk about it."

"Old lady, I think it's because he's a playful kid, and it's possible that he forgot about it for a while." Mrs. Wang said lightly.

Mother Jia showed displeasure, "He's very playful! He's also in his teens. The last time he played with the boy, he dropped himself into the lake. Could it be that he doesn't have a long memory?"

Madam Wang smiled without saying a word.

Tanchun is restless, she is clear about Jia Huan's situation, she knows that yesterday's illness was cured, and it is not a big deal if she doesn't come to pay her respects today, but can she say to her face that Mrs. Wang is lying?

This is not courting death, this is offering death.

"Go, invite Third Master Huan here, I want to ask him, where did the books he read all these years go!" Jia's mother was furious because of Daiyu's incident, and was teased by Mrs. Wang like this. Getting more and more annoyed.

Daiyu poked Baoyu lightly, and Baoyu shook his head.

Yingchun showed a worried look.

Baochai and others all looked as if they were staying out of the matter.

If the girls and young men of Rongguo Mansion are a circle, then Jia Huan is a point, a point outside the circle.

Since ancient times, it is not easy to integrate into a circle. Jia Huan's background, the attitude of Jia Zheng and his wife towards him, and his own words and deeds all doomed him not to be able to integrate into Baoyu's circle.
