The Maid's Strategy in the Red Chamber

sit still

It wasn't until the moment when she boarded the official ship that Xue Yan secretly remembered this: she just left, estimated that it would take about a year to come back, and even forgot to send a message to that person.I haven't seen each other for so long, I don't know if he will forget himself?

As a result, on board the boat, on the deck, Xueyan saw that Jia Lian was talking happily with a young man there.The more he looked at the back of the man, the more familiar it became, so much so that Xue Yan put all his attention there and didn't notice that the pedals under his feet were a bit uneven, and his feet were crooked and almost fell down.Thanks to the cleverness of Cui Liu beside her, he supported her immediately: "Sister Xueyan, are you alright?"

Although the movement was not too loud, it still attracted everyone on the deck.

Especially the man's gaze made Xue Yan's face blush, it was really him!I haven't seen you for such a long time, and it's really a bit bad to be in such an embarrassing state when we meet.

Lin Ming didn't think so in his heart, he knew that Jia's family was in a hurry for the family visit in the past year.Especially Xueyan, I heard that because of her outstanding needlework, she was specially selected by the old lady of Jia's mansion to embroider a large screen, which must have been very hard work.Looking at it from a distance like this, the originally thin figure is now even more slender, as if it could be blown away by a gust of wind, and the originally round face has become much sharper, which makes people feel distressed.It's just that after such a long time, Lin Ming finally saw each other again, and Lin Ming felt very happy again.

Fortunately, at this time Jia Lian was busy calling the people to carry their luggage, so he didn't notice Lin Ming's gaffe.

When Xueyan entered the cabin, she couldn't help but turned her head to look at Lin Ming, just in time to see his doting smile, and her old face turned red again:

Oops, I haven't seen him in so many days, why do I feel that this kid is more handsome and manly.And that little look, it's going to hook people to death!

Cui Liu, who was walking behind her, saw that her steps suddenly slowed down, and then looked at the flush on her face, and couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Sister Xueyan, what's wrong with you, isn't it because you are not feeling well? Why do you look so strange?" Woolen cloth?"

One sentence wiped out all the thoughts and fantasies in Xueyan's heart, and she replied calmly: "It's nothing, but when I think about going on a long boat trip soon, I feel a little excited, especially looking at the wide river. The world is vast, and the mood is even more exciting." She knows that those who can board this boat are all human beings, and she can't have such a gaffe in the future. It's my fate.It seems that we should be more cautious in the future.

Lin Ming was also the kind of person who knew clearly, he knew the importance of fame to girls.He knew very well that if any gossip spread, he wouldn't care if he was a big man, but Xueyan was afraid that it would be miserable, and if he made a bad mess, he would even lose his life.Therefore, they never did anything that would be unfavorable to Xueyan. The two of them stayed on the same boat for more than half a month and couldn't speak a few words. When they met, they could only give each other a vaguely comforting look.

Every seemingly inadvertent "passing by" is a great test of the tacit understanding between the two.

Fortunately, within a few days, the ship arrived in Jinling, where the fleet would repair and add some supplies.Moreover, this is the home base of Jia's family. Now that he is here, Jia Lian will have to walk around with his relatives here and stay here for a few days.Jia Lian took everyone to live in Jia's old house in Jinling.

The housekeeper here is Mama Jin, she met Daiyu at the second gate and got off the carriage, and took her to her residence.This mother Jin is the old lady of Yuanyang. She was originally Jia Mu's confidant, so she was sent to Jinling to look after the old house.Yuanyang can become Jia Mu's confidant at a young age

She also has a great relationship with her own mother.As for why the Yuanyang brothers and sisters are all on errands in the capital, this shows the greatness of Jia Mu's employing people: your children are all on errands by my side, if there is any disagreement between you two, you have to think about your children...

Mother Jin can be regarded as an old man in the family, so Daiyu asked someone to give her a seat to sit on, while she sat in the upper seat and chatted with her about some household matters.After Mama Jin finished asking about the recent situation of Mother Jia and the other masters, she inevitably asked a few more questions about the mandarin ducks.

While the two were talking, they heard the servant girl say that the second master Lian invited Miss Lin to the flower hall.

Daiyu hurried to the flower hall. Jia Lian discussed with Daiyu, "I can't finish those trivial matters in three to five days. Those old friends are a little rusty if they haven't moved around for many years. Besides, it's not easy to take you with you because of the difference between men and women. You I can't avoid getting bored in the house, so I might as well go out for a stroll. Jinling is the ancient capital of several dynasties, so it's interesting. I've ordered the concierge to prepare a carriage and maids for you, as well as a few familiar The servant of the topography of the city. I have also asked Lin Ming to take care of me. I am relieved to have him take care of me. If you have anything to do, just ask Mother Jin, and you must not be polite."

Then he talked to Lin Ming politely, and he couldn't wait to go out.

Jia Lian has always been full of flamboyant things. In the past few years in the capital, Jia Amnesty has been very strict and has a lot of things to do, so he didn't care about those romantic places.Now that he came back to Jinling, he had sent a post to invite him for a long time ago. The place was on the banks of the famous Qinhuai River. Jia Lian had long been fascinated by it.

Seeing Jia Lian's agitated appearance, Daiyu couldn't help frowning, she is not stupid, how could she fail to guess Jia Lian's purpose?Thinking of Wang Xifeng who was serving her parents-in-law to raise their children in the capital, Daiyu couldn't help feeling sorry for her.

Xueyan also sighed deeply, this is the normal state of men in this era!It is said that Lian's second grandma is powerful, and she can't control Lian's second master, but if this master's virtue is not under the supervision of a powerful wife, he may be even worse than Jia She in the original book.Not to mention rich disciples like Jia Lian, even those from ordinary backgrounds, if they had the opportunity, they would go to those low-level Goulan places to "experience".There are also those sanctimonious literati who go to brothels to spend the night in the name of "literary society" or "poetry society".

Thinking of this, Xue Yan suddenly remembered, that kid Lin Ming was already fifteen or sixteen years old, did he have sex?She is not the kind of hypocritical woman who wants a man to be as good as a jade before marriage, but when she thinks of that red lips, thousands of people will taste it... Xue Yan suddenly breaks out in a cold sweat. Conditions, I'm afraid they can only eat and wait to die.

No, to find an opportunity, you have to beat him hard. A man should be as calm as Liu Xiahui.She didn't care what happened before, but she can't mess around in the future.If he becomes an official or something in the future, wouldn't he fall into his hands if he just tricked her into a trick?
