[Red House] The Twins of Purple Pearls

Xue's family came to Beijing at the beginning of July, and Aunt Xue brought a son and a daughter to Jia's family to see relatives.

Baochai, a daughter of Xue's family, is dignified and beautiful, obediently following Aunt Xue, and greeting the elders with courtesy and respect.Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang and sisters haven't seen each other for many years, so they went to reminisce about the old days. Shi Taijun left Baochai by his side to talk.

I heard that cousin Xue's family was here, and the girls also came to see each other.

Tanchun and Daiyu secretly told each other that the cousin of Xue's family was really in spring and autumn, but Yanyu was stunned when she saw Baochai.

She never thought that the waiter Shenying in the Chixia Palace would turn out to be a female fetus, and she would be the cousin of the Xue family standing in front of them now.

Really—

Yanyu looked at Daiyu worriedly; Shenying's waiter was her sister's fate, but they met here. She was only worried that her plan would be ruined here.

I heard Lian's second sister-in-law pulling their sisters and talking to Cousin Xue with a smile on her face: "This is Sister Yan and Sister Yu from Aunt Lin's family."

Baochai smiled lightly and called, "Sister Yan, Sister Yu."

For a moment, Yanyu felt her heart burning like charcoal, but even when she got close to Baochai, she felt like she was in a furnace, so she had to force herself to respond.

It was Daiyu who called Sister Bao with a smile.

A banquet was held in the courtyard to welcome the Xue family. Obviously Shi Taijun also intended to keep Baochai at the mansion.

It's just that Yanyu is in a trance, and when she sees Baochai from the corner of the eye, she feels restless, and she feels out of the world in the midst of the hustle and bustle.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Are you tired?" Seeing Yanyu's listless appearance, Daiyu asked in a low voice.

"No." Yanyu replied very quickly, she twisted her silk handkerchief and pretended to wipe her eyelids, a thought flashed in her mind, "I don't know why I feel a little strange when I see sister Xue's family today."

But Daiyu didn't feel any difference: "But I see that Sister Bao is gentle and kind, she should be a very easy person to get along with."

Yanyu was more and more moved by the methods of Jing Huan Xiangu.First, Baoyu came to Baochai again, and Baoyu was fine, but her own sister was deceived by Fairy Jinghuan and became a good sister for Shenying's waiter;

It's just that since Shenying's waiter is a woman, where does the saying that the soul returns tears come from?Yanyu also couldn't figure it out.

Such a change made Yanyu worry, she must strictly guard against any accidents.

After the banquet, Xue's family was arranged to live in Lixiangyuan; hearing this made Yanyu secretly heave a sigh of relief.

Shi Taijun always liked to keep girls by his side in the courtyard, but fortunately he did not arrange Baochai to live in the courtyard with him, so that he would not look up and look down all day long.

As soon as I got back to the house, I heard the sound of people coming and going outside, Yiyan said outside the embroidered curtain: "Girl, Mother Luo who is beside Aunt Xue is here."

The sisters were all wondering how the people around Aunt Xue would come to visit at this time, so they asked Yiyan to prepare tea and invite Mama Luo to come in.

She saw Luo's mother come in with her maid and said with a smile: "Say hello to my cousin! These are some things brought by our wife, for the girls to chat with and relieve boredom." Let the maid put the two enamel cloud pattern boxes brought by her. On the case, the enamel cloud pattern box is exquisite and luxurious, which shows that the Xue family is indeed a wealthy family with a lot of money.

"Thank you, Auntie. I hope Mommy will tell Auntie that our sisters will thank Auntie tomorrow." Yanyu said kindly, and ordered Yuebai to reward Mommy Luo with money, and Mommy Luo left with a smile on her face.

Seeing Luo's mother going out to the left corridor, she presumably went to Xiangyun's house.

What Aunt Xue gave their sisters were two golden lotuses inlaid with pearls, which is the style that Jiangnan women like.

"Aunt Xue has put her heart into it!" Yan Yu couldn't help sighing.

"Sister?" Daiyu was still a little strange when she heard Yanyu's words.

Yanyu picked up a gold tin and gestured to Daiyu, only to be pushed away by Daiyu: "Sister, don't make trouble!"

Only then did Yanyu put down the gold tin, and brushed Daiyu's long hair with a smile: "This gold tin is not suitable for you either. It's just a pity that I failed Aunt Xue's heart."

Seeing the shining hairpin, Daiyu always listened to Yanyu's words, she nodded in conviction, "Just listen to my sister."

The next day, the sisters went to Lixiangyuan to thank Aunt Xue. Just entering the courtyard, they saw the attacker beside Baoyu waiting in the corridor, thinking that Baoyu was also with Aunt Xue.

Mother Luo saw them rushing up to greet them: "The two cousin girls are here! Second Master Bao and Miss Shi are also here."

Sure enough, she saw Xiangyun and Baochai sitting together, and Yanyu and Daiyu thanked Aunt Xue together. Aunt Xue smiled kindly: "It's hard for you to come back!"

Baoyu saw Daiyu smiling as she walked by, but it was Yanyu who sat down on the bamboo chair next to him, and Baoyu's smile froze immediately.

Daiyu was talking to Baochai, and Xiangyun was also talking with a smile, but Yanyu was extremely entangled like sitting on pins and needles.

She can't control her younger sister and forbid her to associate with Baochai, let alone explain the reason to her younger sister; although the elder sister of the Xue family looks gentle and kind, when Yanyu thinks that she is the servant of Shenying, who was killed by Daiyu, she can't let her go. The sister made contact with her.

Aunt Xue saw that the children were chatting, and asked Yanyu who was closest to her with a smile: "Miss Lin, I heard that you used to be in Yangzhou? That's a place of outstanding people."

"My aunt calls me Yan'er." Yanyu smiled, her tone soft, "My father was transferred to Yangzhou in the past, and our siblings were all born in Yangzhou, and we only returned to the capital last year."

"I used to go to Yangzhou with my master, and it was very prosperous." Aunt Xue seemed to be pregnant, and smiled lightly.

Thinking of the good relationship between Aunt Xue and her husband who passed away early, Yanyu sighed, and said to Aunt Xue: "I don't know if Auntie has drunk the green leaf wine in Yangzhou? Green leaf wine is the best wine in Yangzhou." People who pass through Yangzhou must bring a bottle of green leaf wine back home; Aunt Xue's deceased husband was an imperial merchant, traveling from north to south.

Aunt Xue sighed, "I haven't seen you for many years."

Yanyu said: "I happened to see the prescription of Qingye wine in an ancient book before. If I hadn't borrowed flowers to present the Buddha to Aunt Xue, after all, it would be useless in my hands."

"How can I take your things! I just feel nostalgic." Aunt Xue said politely.

Baoyu couldn't talk to the girls, so he also talked to Aunt Xue: "I didn't expect my aunt and my eldest cousin to talk."

Aunt Xue smiled: "I heard that Uncle Lin and Auntie are knowledgeable about the past and the present, and the two young ladies are also very knowledgeable. Now that they meet each other, they know that they are really extraordinary."

Baochai, Daiyu, and Xiangyun were talking, when they suddenly heard what their mother said, then turned around and said with a smile: "Second sister Lin is very eloquent, I really like it when I see it."

"Sister Bao's praise really makes me ashamed." Daiyu lowered her head with a smile and said softly, "Sister Bao is also very beautiful and beautiful."

Seeing that they suddenly flattered each other, Xiangyun laughed briskly: "Sister Bao, Sister Yu, you are still so self-effacing, it really makes me feel ashamed."

Daiyu smiled slyly: "I guess we didn't take care of Sister Yun."

"Sister Yu, don't bring me up again! It's obviously about you and Sister Bao." Xiangyun turned around angrily and only drank cold wine.

Yanyu looked at them with mixed emotions in her heart.

Aunt Xue saw that Xiangyun drank cold wine, so she called Tong Xi to warm Xiangyun's wine: "Cold wine hurts your health, you have to warm the wine before drinking."

"I used to drink like this at home, but now I feel relieved after hearing what my aunt said." Xiang Yun suddenly said seriously after hearing what Aunt Xue said.

Aunt Xue looked at Xiangyun more kindly, with a motherly attitude.

Just after the banquet here, I heard Luo's mother outside reporting that the uncle was coming, so Aunt Xue told Baochai, "You and some younger sisters go to the backyard to play." There is also Xiangyun meeting.

They went out to the backyard together, and Baoyu followed them.

Yanyu walked closely with Daiyu, so it was Xiangyun who was half a step behind and talked to Baoyu: "Second brother, I heard from third sister that you were injured a while ago, are you okay now?" Xiangyun He has always been a straightforward person, saying what comes to his mind.

Baoyu suddenly showed a very embarrassing expression, and said falteringly: "It's nothing."

Xiang Yun said: "Second elder brother should also listen to uncle's words, don't let the old ancestor worry."

However, Baoyu suddenly lowered his face in dissatisfaction, and his tone was obviously displeased: "You are only young, why do you think like this?"

"I—" Xiangyun only felt aggrieved, after all, she didn't say anything wrong, but she was resented by him, and the joy in her heart just now disappeared.

"What's wrong with Sister Yun?" Baochai heard the sound behind him, turned around and saw Xiangyun bowing his head, and quickly took out a silk handkerchief to wipe her tears, and could not help complaining to Baoyu, "Brother Bao, what's wrong? My sister is young, why can't you let her go!"

Yanyu and Daiyu also came to ask Xiangyun, but they didn't know what happened.

Baoyu never wanted to see a girl cry, but when she saw this, she felt remorse, and said quickly, "My good sister, it's all my fault, so don't cry!"

Xiangyun pursed his lips and wanted to say something more, but he was speechless.

This year's Qiqiao is the same as the old routine in previous years, and there is nothing new at all, only because of the arrival of Xue's family, it is a bit lively.

Lanterns were hung in the courtyard, reflecting orange at night.

Lin Ruhai accompanied Jia Min to Rongguo Mansion, and talked to Jia Zheng in the front yard, and it was also for Lan Geer's admission to school.Jia Zheng thought about it and agreed. As for Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang, they didn't know, Jia Zheng told Lin Ruhai not to worry. Lang Geer always grew up by Li Wan's side, and she was the only one who was reluctant to travel far with her only son.

"Mr. Li has always been a sensible person." When Jia Zheng mentioned his daughter-in-law, that was all he said.

Yan'er and Lan Ge'er were still playing together, and Jia Min pulled Li Wan to talk, and now thinking about it, he felt a little bit embarrassed.

Li Wan looked at the youngest son, and his expression became more and more sad: "I understand what my aunt means. If Brother Lang can be successful in the future, he will never forget the kindness of his uncle and aunt."

Jia Min caressed Li Wan lovingly: "We are just middlemen in this matchmaking. It's all about the relatives who love their grandson." But this can only be said to Li Wan.
