[Red Mansion] Today is also not a person in Jia's house

Since the two sisters talked, Lin Daiyu began to reduce the number of times she went out.

On this day, Jia Baoyu came to the door, just as Zicuckoo came back.

"Why haven't you girls come to play with me these days?"

"I got good tea the day before yesterday, and I'm still waiting for her to eat it."

Lin Daiyu did not hide the matter of the deed, so she told Zijuan when she returned to the house, and gave her a few days to think about it.

Today she just went to talk to her parents about it, and when she saw Jia Baoyu, she couldn't help but feel moved.

"What does the second master always come to our girls for? Isn't it enough that the girls in the courtyard are here to accompany you to relieve your boredom?"

"If our girl comes home one day, why don't you go to Yangzhou to find her?"

Jia Baoyu was laughing, but he was startled when he heard this, and he grabbed Zijuan's hand suddenly.

"What did you say, what went home?"

"Why do you want to go home? Sister Lin thinks it's not good here?"

Zicuckoo lowered her head.

"What did the second master say? People have fathers and sisters, so why can't they go home?"

"A few days ago, the girl told me that if I wanted to, I could ask for a deed and take me away with me."

"I was the same as Xiren Yuanyang. I should stay in the mansion for the rest of my life, but I can't bear the girl."

As she spoke, Zijuan withdrew her hand to wipe her tears, peeking at Jia Baoyu's reaction from time to time.

Sure enough, he was stunned in shock.

"Sister Lin is leaving? She can't!"

"If she leaves, I will be alone, what's the point?"

Seeing that he was insane, Zijuan was secretly happy, and hurriedly persuaded him.

"It's easy for Miss Lin not to leave, as long as you stay together for a long time, wouldn't it be good?"

"The old lady said earlier that you two should stay together so that I can stay."

Jia Baoyu stared blankly ahead, seemingly murmuring unconsciously.

"Long, long, long... long, long, long..."

"This is good!"

Suddenly, with a cry of joy, he stood up and walked towards the Jiangyun Hall.

Zicuckoo hurriedly followed.

"There is a door guard in front, the second master is waiting for me to lead the way!"

Jia Baoyu was joking and joking in front of Lin Daiyu, but at this moment, outside Jia's residence, two unexpected guests came.

"Excuse me, does Zhou Rui's family live here?"

An old lady in her late teens, with her yellow-haired child, was inquiring in the alley behind Jia's mansion.

A little girl passing by showed them the way, and entered through the back door.

When Zhou Rui's family saw it, they had some speculations.

"Is it Grandma Liu?"

"I haven't seen you for a long time, please come in for tea."

It was Grandma Liu and Ban'er who came here. After half a day's journey, the grandparents and grandchildren finally found Jia's mansion.

Thanks for the tea, Grandma Liu sat on the couch, very restrained holding the board.

"I haven't contacted you for many years. I shouldn't come to the door. It's really disturbing."

"It's just that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the family is really tight."

After talking about relationship building and talking about the poverty of the family, Grandma Liu smiled brightly.

When Zhou Rui's secret passage was confirmed, his face became a bit more contemptuous.

"Where is this? Since they are relatives, they should walk around and take care of each other."

"Sit down for a while, and I'll ask you a question."

As she said that, she stood up and sent a girl out, and then she came back and said again.

"I don't know if you haven't seen each other for a long time, but the wife is no longer the head of the house."

"Now it's my wife's niece, Second Mistress Lian, who is in charge of the house, but it's all the same."

When she spoke in detail, Grandma Liu listened naturally, responding to everything.

It won't be long before the girl comes back, Zhou Rui's family hurriedly took people around to Wang Xifeng's courtyard from behind to wait.

Wang Xifeng was talking to Lin Yun.

"I understand what big sister means, but you are in the house now, why do you ask you to pay?"

"As my sister-in-law, I must make my birthday lively. You just need to be a little birthday star."

Lin Yun took Wang Xifeng's arm and walked forward slowly, smiling.

"Sister-in-law loves my sister, it's our blessing, but I don't like to be lively."

"Last year, my ignorance made my sister-in-law work hard. This year, we sisters get together and treat my sister-in-law to a glass of wine."

"Tossing and tossing, it's nothing to tell my sister-in-law to work hard."

Having just arrived last year, Lin Yun had never personally experienced the absurdity of Jia's mansion, so she asked Wang Xifeng to celebrate her birthday.

It was really noisy from morning to night, people were busy eating, drinking and watching theatre, few people came to bless, but a lot of people got drunk.

With experience, Lin Yun no longer wants to embarrass his head and eyes, so he might as well set up a clean table in the Jiangyun Pavilion by himself.

Wang Xifeng was surprised to see that she was not fake modesty.

"Others wish they had a bigger birthday party, but you do it the other way around."

"Do you have any ideas, tell your sister-in-law?"

Lin Yun looked serious.

"I hit it off with my sister-in-law because I like to make up my own mind, and I won't hide it from you."

"The banquet is very lively, but everyone is here to drink, and it's not for me. Why waste a day?"

"It's better to just invite a few close friends, the sisters are free to joke around."

This idea runs counter to the habits of the Jia family.

Wang Xifeng stared at her for a long time, but she didn't see the slightest pretense.

"You have big ideas, so I have to go and talk to the old lady."

"Forget it, at worst, I'll just get scolded for you."

Lin Yun pretended to be displeased.

"Who doesn't know that the old lady loves you the granddaughter-in-law the most?"

"I can't bear to scold you if I scold anyone. My sister-in-law is showing off to me."

Wang Xifeng laughed.

Who didn't know that Mother Jia didn't value Lin Yun, the so-called granddaughter?It's just a good thing on the face of it.

The two acted for each other, tacitly understanding each other.

Walking to the hallway, Ping'er greeted him.

"Second Grandma, a guest is here."

"It is said to be some kind of relative in our family, called Grandma Liu."

Lin Yun paused.

Grandma Liu is here at this time?

This is a rare person in the Red Mansion who is honest from beginning to end.

Want to make a good relationship, Lin Yun hurriedly said.

"I still want to invite my sister-in-law to dinner. Since there are guests, why not invite them together."

"Take it as a gift in return for entrusting my sister-in-law to do something."

Wang Xifeng raised his eyes and laughed.

"One meal as a gift in return is not enough for me to work hard, so let's talk about ten or eight meals."

"I heard that the small kitchen in your yard is good, so I'm not going to be polite."

After all, lift your feet and walk forward.

Ping'er hurried back to the house and asked grandma Liu and Ban'er to go to the Jiangyun Pavilion as well.

The meals are placed in the East Wing where we usually play, spacious and bright.

It's just that when Grandma Liu and Ban'er came in, Wang Xifeng's face was visibly stiff for a moment.

Without him, I can only blame the coarse and rags on Grandma Liu and Ban'er's dripping nose.

"Pfft."

Lin Daiyu couldn't hold back her laughter, she quickly covered her mouth to cover up, and asked Xueyan to wipe him with a handkerchief.

Grandma Liu apologized, she couldn't bear to use the clean handkerchief even if she got it, she just held it in her hand.

"Grandma, girls please."

"The villain comes from the countryside, doesn't know the rules, and makes girls laugh."

"Quickly kneel down and pay your respects!"

While speaking, he pressed the board and told him to kowtow.

Wang Xifeng watched coldly.

"Get up, little ones."

"Since we are relatives, we should move around more. The girls and I are younger, so we should call them grandma."

"Why are you here?"

Grandma Liu rubbed her hands and stood up, embarrassed.

"It's nothing serious, just something happened at home."

Carefully choosing her words, she carefully said what she had said to Zhou Rui's family, it was nothing more than that the family was poor and had no food left over for the New Year.

Wang Xifeng, like a human being, had already guessed, and scoffed lightly when he heard the words.

"As you said, it is common for relatives to help each other."

"I happen to have 20 taels from my wife for making clothes for the girl next to me. If you don't mind, I'll ask someone to go back and get it."

20 taels is not much, and it is not much, the girls in Jia's house only get two or two months' money a month, and Wang Xifeng leaked a little from her fingers, but it is enough for an ordinary family to eat for a year.

Grandma Liu was overjoyed, knelt down and kowtowed to pray to Buddha.

"Grandma is kind, Bodhisattva blesses you, thank you grandma."

Lin Yun interrupted with a smile.

"Since my sister-in-law gave it, and I'm in this yard, I can't empty my hands."

"Qingmei, go and get ten taels of silver, and bring them back to grandma."

Lin Daiyu also asked Zicuckoo to pick up five taels, so they pieced together a total of 35 taels.

The poor family had never seen so much money in their life. Grandma Liu was so happy that she burst into tears, but Ban'er's eyes were only on the stewed fish on the table.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng really disliked it, Lin Yun didn't force it.

Ask someone to set up a small table for Grandma Liu and Ban'er in the outside room, and serve chicken, duck and other big meat dishes, and both sides eat their own things.

Wang Xifeng was really satisfied, and sent someone to take Grandma Liu out after the meal, and left after gossiping for a while.

In the evening, Zhou Rui's family came over.

"Girls, I'm here to deliver flowers for Aunt Xue."

"There are four in total, two for each of the two girls."

The box was opened, and there were four silk flowers lying empty inside.

Lin Daiyu raised her eyelids from the book, glanced at it and laughed out loud.

"Is this flower only for our sisters, or for everyone?"

Zhou Rui's family hadn't noticed the change in the atmosphere yet, and said with a smile.

"The girls have them all, and these are yours."

Xueyan came over to pour the tea, deliberately placing the teacup on the table forcefully.

Lin Daiyu put down the book and reprimanded her.

"What kind of rule is this? I taught you to treat guests like this?"

"It's not that frivolous person who doesn't understand a little bit of reason. Don't say I taught you when you go out."

Qing Mei followed closely to serve some dim sum, which seemed to be neither light nor heavy, but made a clear crashing sound.

Lin Yun also put down the book.

"I just said Xueyan, didn't I mean you?"

"Our Lin family is not a small family. If you don't know, you may think that I have deducted your monthly payment."

The two sisters sang together, and Zhou Rui's family's face turned blue.

However, she was wronged first, unable to refute, so she turned around and fled with a few perfunctory words.

Zi Ling came forward and took the silk flowers and distributed them to the second-class maids who were on duty outside, and no one wanted them above the first-class maids.

In the next yard, Wang Xifeng was looking at the silk flowers.

"Look, it's a new trick. Take two, Ping'er, and send them to Ningguo Mansion tomorrow for Rong's daughter-in-law."

"I hit her best, she is young and wears just right."

Ping'er agreed, and came up to get a new box to pack.

"Just now I saw that Zhou Rui's house still has four more in the box, and I'm heading towards the Jiangyun Hall again."

"Miss Lin is afraid that she will be punished."

Wang Xifeng stretched and sat in front of the vanity mirror.

"It's not such a rule. It's hard for me to finish my busy day so as not to be annoying."

"Big Sister Lin has an idea, and she doesn't want to celebrate her birthday in the mansion. She made it clear that she doesn't want to get involved, so she's not afraid of offending."

"Unfortunately, it would be great if it was a girl from our family, and she could help me a bit."

While talking, a daughter-in-law came outside.

"Second Mistress, I have something to report from the inner sect."

Wang Xifeng had just pulled out the hairpin, so she had to insert it back.

"I'm not free at night, let her come in."

Ping'er helped her put on her coat before calling someone in. ?
