Xichun, the first daughter of the Red Chamber

On the other side of the lake, Jia Baoyu frowned as he watched a group of young masters who were chanting, archery, or playing chess.

How can it be fun to be with sisters and sisters?

Jia Baoyu sighed, lying on the railing, staring at the graceful figures on the other side of the lake, fascinated.

A young master who was about the same age as him stepped forward, "Are you Jia Baoyu from Rongguo Mansion?"

Jia Baoyu turned his head to look at the person who came, and saw that the person was a little older than him, but his face was already handsome, with clear eyebrows and firmness in his eyes.

Jia Baoyu immediately felt good about it, "Exactly, I don't know how to call you, young master."

The visitor said: "My surname is Jin."

Jia Baoyu immediately realized who it was, and said with a smile, "Hi, sir."

Jin Han nodded. Although he was the eldest son of Nan'an County King, he was not invited to be crowned prince, and it was not wrong for Jia Baoyu to call him eldest son.

Jin Han asked, "It's your first time here, is there anything you don't like?"

Jia Baoyu blinked, "Not at all."

Seeing that Jin Han didn't speak, Jia Baoyu finally realized that the other party was asking why he was here alone.

Jia Baoyu smiled, "I can't get along with them, it's better to be alone."

Jin Han looked at Jia Baoyu strangely, "Can't you say a piece?"

Jia Baoyu nodded, "That's right! What they said was nothing more than beating and killing, or worse, economic career, how vulgar!"

Jin Han: "..."

Not far away, several older sons paused.

"Can I beat that guy up?" The young master gritted his teeth and said, "He is worthy of calling us vulgar?"

As he said that, the young master was about to roll up his sleeves, but was stopped by another young master, "Don't be angry, the eldest son is still there, if you make a move, wouldn't it be disrespectful to Nan'an Palace?"

"That's right." The other people in the same group also blocked: "Besides, if you make a move here today, be careful not to mention it when you find a wife in the future, even your mother will miss you."

The young master who was going to do it snorted twice, then withdrew his hand, and said bravely: "I'm still afraid that these things won't work?"

The others laughed secretly, grabbed him and walked out, "Yes, yes, you are not afraid, let's go, let's go and show your skills!"

They left there together without mentioning Jia Baoyu again.

Jia Baoyu didn't wait for Jin Han's answer, and turned to look across the lake.

Jia Baoyu murmured, "It would be great if I could play with those older sisters."

Jin Han lowered his eyes and was about to leave. Just as he turned around, he heard Jia Baoyu whisper, "I don't know if Fourth Sister is afraid. Many people are staring at her today."

Jin Han paused, then turned back, "Are you worried about your fourth sister?"

Jia Baoyu turned his head and looked at Jinhan strangely, "Naturally, the fourth sister is young, and this is the first time she has gone out. Because of the previous incident, many people looked at the fourth sister."

Jia Baoyu frowned, "I don't like them."

Jia Baoyu sighed, recalling the way those old ladies used to say about him, "It's not long since my fourth sister has recovered."

Jin Han subconsciously asked: "Is she still in good health? Didn't you ask a doctor?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Jin Han felt a little regretful. At that time, he was so flustered, and the doctor of Rongguo Mansion was borrowed by the Nan'an Palace. Xichun had been ill for so long to recover, so it was clear that he didn't invite another doctor.

Jia Baoyu nodded, "At that time, the outside was in such a state of chaos. How could we invite a doctor? Later, I heard that an old nanny who knows some medical skills in the mansion took a look."

Jia Baoyu sighed again, and said in an adult tone: "That way, how can people feel relieved, the medicine is bitter, and the fourth sister is young, so she refuses to take the medicine obediently, so she will recover slowly."

Only then did Jinhan remember that, according to his mother and concubine, the girl was only three or four years old.

The servants at the side came over with cakes and fruits. Jia Baoyu took a look, took a piece of cake and took a bite, "This kind of cake is sweeter, and the third sister likes it."

Jinhan was a little surprised, "Do you remember all your sister's preferences?"

Jia Baoyu was a little embarrassed and said, "I don't have everything. I don't know what the second sister likes to eat and do. The third sister likes to eat something sweet, but the fourth sister likes to eat slightly sweet, or sour-sweet. younger sister……"

Jin Han interrupted Jia Baoyu's words, "Looking at Mr. Jia's age, he should have gone to school by now. Since this is the case, Mr. Jia should understand that it is not easy to tell outsiders these words."

Jia Baoyu blinked, a little confused, but Jin Han didn't care, turned and left.

After walking a few steps, I saw a young servant hurried over, "Young Master, Miss is making a fuss and wants to come over to play with you."

Jin Han's expression remained unchanged, "Where are the maids and mothers following her?"

The servant smiled wryly, "Miss made a big fuss, and they couldn't stop it."

"Take her around the chrysanthemum garden. There are a lot of children around her age here today. She can try to make some friends." Jin Han thought for a while, then said: "If she doesn't want to, give her Take some pastries and preserved fruits, let her eat and play, if the concubine mother asks, she will say that I said it."

The boy should be, but he was stopped by Jin Han after walking a few steps.

Jin Han hesitated for a while, and then said: "Go and ask the kitchen, if there are any sweet or sour snacks or snacks, if there are, I will send some to Juyuan."

The boy subconsciously wanted to say that there would be snacks and tea at the Juyuan anytime, but when he looked up, he saw Jinhan waving his hand impatiently, "Go."

The boy had no choice but to swallow the words again, turned and left.

As soon as Xichun approached the chrysanthemum bushes, she noticed all kinds of eyes falling on them.

Yingchun and Tanchun also noticed it.

Yingchun lowered her head, pursed her lips tightly, just followed the maid in front, but Tanchun looked left and right, looking back curiously at those who looked at her.

Xichun looked straight ahead, as if those gazes didn't exist at all.

The maid led them to the pavilion among the flowers, "The county lord and the two ladies can play here, and there are servants watching around."

Mother Jiang gave a half salute to the maid, "Miss, thank you."

The maid also returned the gift, saying that she didn't dare to do it, and withdrew.

There were also a few girls in their teens in the pavilion, who were sitting around the table eating snacks and drinking tea and talking. When they saw them coming, they stopped, straightened their clothes and sat upright, while their eyes wandered.

According to their thinking, at this time, Xichun and the others wanted to exchange names and families with them, so they subconsciously arranged their appearance, and waited for Xichun and the others to speak with a smile on their faces, and when Xichun and the others greeted them, they went on again. It's not too late to understand.

As a result, Yingchun sat directly on the stool beside her with her head lowered and did not move. Tanchun smiled at them and then turned to look at Shi Shu, "Let's go to see the chrysanthemum."

Shi Shu was a little embarrassed, so he turned his head to look at Jiang's mother, there was no way, she was the biggest one here.

Xichun smiled, "I want to see flowers too." Pulling Yingchun up again, "Second sister is coming too."

Then, without waiting for Jiang's mother to answer, she pulled the person out of the pavilion, and Tanchun quickly followed.

The master left, and the servant girls below hurriedly followed, leaving only the girls who were sitting in front dumbfounded.

A girl fidgeted with the handkerchief in her hand, "What's the air? Do you really think you are some noble person?"

The other girl was also angry, "Why is she not a noble person? But what about the Jia family."

The voice of the last sentence dragged on for a long time, and turned several corners.

The other girls also reacted, covering their mouths with handkerchiefs and laughing, "No, they are the Jia family that came from Jia Yuanchun."

Xichun dragged Yingchun over to look at the flowers, but in the end they were all dumbfounded looking at these flowers.

A few girls on the left said that I thought the Erqiao plant was open before the mandarin duck closed, and the other said that I thought the Chixian Jinzhu plant was better.

The girls on the right were discussing who wrote the chrysanthemum poems better just now. One said that your poems were better because they showed the beauty of chrysanthemums, while the other said that your poems were better because they showed the strength of chrysanthemums.

In the middle, Tanchun looked at a few chrysanthemums and asked Xichun, "Fourth sister, do you think the one with long petals looks better or the one with heavy petals?"

Xichun took a serious look, "I think the one with spots in the corner over there is pretty."

Tanchun asked Yingchun again, "Second Sister, what do you think?"

Yingchun shook her head, "I think they all look good."

Tanchun pouted and stopped talking.

Siqi tugged Yingchun's sleeve lightly, and asked with a smile: "Second Miss, look, does that big yellow one over there look like the chrysanthemum fish I ate before?"

As soon as the words fell, there were chuckles from the left and right.

Yingchun blushed, lowered her head and refused to speak, and Tanchun was a little at a loss, subconsciously looking back and forth between Yingchun and Xichun.

Xichun smiled, "Really? I don't think so."

"But you mentioned chrysanthemum fish." Xichun turned to look at Jiang's mother with a smile, "Mom, I'm hungry."

Mother Jiang squatted down with a smile, "The county lord got up early today, he should be hungry now, the county lord wait a moment, this servant will send someone to get some pastries."

Xichun nodded, and Jiang's mother said again: "The county magistrate and the two young ladies might as well go to the pavilion to rest for a while."

Xichun shook her head, pointed to a water pavilion in front of her, "Go there."

Jiang's mother nodded, "Okay." She also seriously explained to Lichun and Siqi's maidservants, which probably means that she must guard the county lord and miss.

After Jiang's mother walked away, Lichun smiled and saluted Xichun, "Please, county lord."

Then Lichun got up and asked Xichun to follow her.

But Xichun turned around and walked another way.

Lichun was a little dumbfounded, but he understood after following, and followed Xichun, and even made a wink for Yingchun and the others to follow.

After walking for a short distance, Xichun was stopped by someone, it was the two girls who laughed the loudest before.

Xichun smiled and looked up at them, but didn't speak.

The two girls understood after standing for a while, their complexion changed slightly, they slowly moved out of the way, and saluted, "Please, county lord."

Xichun swaggered past them, followed by a group of Yingchun Tanchun.

The two girls waited for them to pass by before getting up, their faces were very ugly.

The conversation between Xichun and Lichun came indistinctly.

"Lichun, I have finished reading the Three Character Classic, why can't I go to school?"

Lichun's voice was full of helplessness, "Mr. County, there is still a thousand-character scripture, and you haven't understood the meaning of the three-character scripture yet."
