[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

Ningrong Street, as the name suggests, is because Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion occupy a large area, so these two mansions are located on the north side of the street.Because this area is all the official residences of dignitaries and nobles, the security is very good, and the people who come and go are all gorgeously dressed.Because the Jia family is an upstart family with no rules, it is not enough to talk and laugh with great scholars, but it is true that they have no contacts.

When the car passed by the gate of Ningguo Mansion, a servant woman came up to ask for instructions with her hands down.

Jia Yan said: "Go home first, put Sister Lin's luggage, and I will change into my clothes before greeting the old lady. It would be too ostentatious to go there in this car."

Someone answered immediately.

On that door, many young men came over and opened the black oil door.

Then Jia Yan pointed to the black oil gate and said to Lin Daiyu: "This gate was originally the Yimen Gate, and now it is only opened when my father and I go out in the car. Even the second uncle goes to the yamen through the side door. .”

He seemed to be unintentional and said: "Our current house was originally separated from the back garden of the Rongguo Mansion. The scenery is good, but the house is not as tall and magnificent as the other side. However, girls like us are enough. I know my sister I want to come over as a guest, but my father personally ordered that the small courtyard next to me be tidied up. Even if I only touched about a dozen rooms once I entered, I don’t know how many people my sister brought here.”

Lin Daiyu heard that Jia Yan had something to say, and was thinking about it in her heart. When she saw this, she quickly replied, saying that she brought her nanny and a little girl.

Jia Yan immediately smiled and said, "It's aunt after all. I was worried that our house would be a mess, but now that aunt is gone again, aunt and sister will have a birth share with us."

If Lin Daiyu came to Beijing at the invitation of Jia's mother but brought a bunch of people, it would not be the etiquette for a girl of Lin Daiyu's age to visit her grandfather's house.If she brought a lot of people with her, it would be a sign of alienation, and it would be a symbol of a rift between the two families.

Lin Daiyu didn't dare to say it repeatedly, but her doubts remained undiminished.

Second Sister's messed up words, is it the truth or polite words?

Although it is a public car, there is a special way for women to get in and out of the house, and there is no need for the two sisters to get off the car and go directly to the hanging flower door at the back.

Wang Shanbao's family had already been waiting at the door with his granddaughter. Seeing Jia Yan taking Lin Daiyu out of the car, he immediately stepped forward courteously.

Siqi helped Jia Yan, and Wang Shanbao's family helped Lin Daiyu, and said: "The madam thought that the cousin would go directly to the old lady, and she has already gone there first."

Holding the chess player's hand, Jia Yan said with a smile: "It's not my fault, I've caused trouble for my mother. Mama Wang, you accompany Sister Lin first, I'll go change clothes, and I'll go with Sister Lin later."

Wang Shanbao's family answered in a loud voice: "Miss, don't worry. The emerald-covered and green tent car has already been prepared, and the mule is also fastened. We are just waiting for the girl to come back."

Then he said to Lin Daiyu: "Biao girl, your house has been prepared a long time ago, why don't you ask your nanny to help you go over and palm your eyes to see if there is anything you like or not, so that the old slave can be changed to suit you." Come here. The people who came with you are tired all the way, how about going to have a rest first?"

Jia's food is good, and the servants below are all well-fed and plump, and they look kind and kind, very kind.Lin Daiyu walked in all the way, and saw the servants all in green clothes and hats, and the maids and women in this room were also in blue skirts and coats, and had silver jewelry on their heads and hands. A genuine smile.Now that Wang Shanbao's family spoke so caringly, Lin Daiyu let Wang Momo and Xueyan go down to rest first, and changed to a chess player to serve them.

Lin Daiyu was sitting in Mrs. Xing's upper room, and Wang Shanbao's family was graciously offering tea and cakes for her, and asked someone to prepare a hand stove for her. Seeing that she was young, not tall, and couldn't reach her feet, it was even more difficult. Repeatedly, she asked someone to change the rattan drawer and come over to step on her feet, for fear that she would feel a little uncomfortable.

Lin Daiyu had already noticed that Wang Shanbao's family was the proud mother next to the eldest aunt, and was about to open her mouth to thank her, but she heard a little girl outside to announce that Nanny Zhao had come.

Lin Daiyu was wondering who this nanny Zhao was, but she saw that Wang Shanbao's family had already reprimanded the little girl: "You child, relying on your wife's kindness is getting rougher. It's true that sister Zhao is our second master's nanny. The girl is the serious relative in the mansion. Do you want me to leave my cousin and go see Sister Zhao? You let Sister Zhao sit in that room for a while, and it won’t be too late when I’m done here." Waiting for the little girl The girl turned around, and Wang Shanbao's family stopped her again: "By the way, you should first ask clearly why Sister Zhao is here at this moment."

The little girl agreed, and then she resigned and went out.Here Wang Shanbao's family hurried over to apologize to Lin Daiyu.

At this moment, Jia Yan had already changed her clothes and combed her hair again. Lin Daiyu had sharp eyes and saw at a glance that although this dress was the same color as the one just now, the pattern was different.Just now that body was made of Kesi bamboo leaves with dark patterns, but this body is made of magnolia leaves with dark patterns.Regardless of the color, these two clothes are plain clothes.Even the jewelry on Jia Yan's head was changed to the silver magnolia pattern that matched the clothes, instead of the bamboo pattern just now.

Jia Yan had already heard about Zhao Nanny, and immediately smiled and said: "Zhao Nanny has always been very delicate, she will come here at this moment, she must come here to greet my sister as soon as possible." Saying that, let the little girl call Zhao Nanny.

Not long after, Mother Zhao really came, and the first thing she did after entering the door was to greet Jia Yan and Lin Daiyu.

Jia Yan asked Nanny Zhao to sit down, pointed at Nanny Zhao and said to Lin Daiyu, "This is my brother's nanny. Speaking of which, my brother and I both lost our mothers when we were young. Fortunately, it's just a girl's film, but brother..., brother is able to grow up safely, thanks to Mother Zhao."

Grandma Zhao stood in front of the babe, hearing what Jia Yan said, like a chrysanthemum smiling, she said repeatedly: "You can't be praised by a girl. This is the duty of a servant." Then she pointed and followed behind her. A round-faced, eleven- or twelve-year-old girl with double buns said: "This is my granddaughter. The servant wants to make a deal with the girl and let my granddaughter follow Miss Lin. If nothing else, just Let her have Miss Lin's bookish air, and she will have a bright face when she goes out in the future."

Jia Yan was even happier when he heard that.

"What a coincidence. When He Fengyi and Wen Fengyi were picking out girls for me last month, I said, since sister Lin is going to come to our house, I'm afraid she will stay for a year or two. Sister Lin is young and a guest. It's better to have a girl who is a little older and more aggressive to protect her. If you pick and choose, it's suitable for Sister Siqi. I don't want the snow goose brought by sister Lin to look childish, I'm afraid it's the original Serving Sister Lin's study. I'm thinking of making up another one for Sister Lin. If it's the sister of Mammy's family, I think it would be great."

The He Fengyi and Wen Fengyi that Jia Yan spoke of were her foster mothers.These two were originally Fengyi female officials in the palace, because Jia Yan was named the county lord, and she was still a titled county lord, so they were bestowed on Jia Yan.After Jia Yan became the Lord of Jiashan County, the treatment would naturally not be the same as before. Mother Jia spoke up and mentioned Jia Yan's share as four first-class maids, four second-class maids, several third-class maids, and rough envoys. There are a few little girls.

Along with the changes in status and treatment, the girls around Jia Yan also faced a big selection.

Siqi originally thought that just because she was the granddaughter of Wang Shanbao's family, she would definitely be able to become Jia Yan's girl, but he didn't expect that she would lose the election in the end, so he was uncomfortable for a whole month.If Jia Yan hadn't opened her mouth today, she would never have rushed up to serve her, but she was surprised and delighted to hear this today.

It turned out that it wasn't that I was bad, nor that the girl looked down on me, but that the girl had already arranged her whereabouts!

Don't talk about playing chess, even Wang Shanbao's family is also worried about it.My wife has not given birth yet, and she is not in charge of the family. The people who come and go in this house are only showing respect to my wife after all.Because of the girl, my wife has only had two days of comfortable life.Therefore, his granddaughter was not selected in the end, and Wang Shanbao's family could only secretly be angry with his daughter and granddaughter, and he dared to say something in his wife's ear.

Now that I think about it, why does the girl look down on herself?It is clear that he respects his wife, which is why he looks favorably on his granddaughter.Otherwise, with the girl's status and decency, why should she pay attention to a girl?

Happier is Zhao Momo and her granddaughter.Judging from Jia Yan's tone, this girl surnamed Zhao is to be Lin Daiyu's big girl just like Siqi.As soon as she came in, she became a big girl, even though the rules in this mansion were loose, it was the first time.If they didn't have a lot of trust in their old Zhao family, how could they show such dignity?

Zhao Momo hurriedly stood up and thanked her: "I can't deserve a girl's compliment."

The girl surnamed Zhao had already kowtowed several times below.

Jia Yan asked the girl's name and age.

The girl said crisply and authentically: "As for the girl, the servant girl has a nickname, Lan'er, and she is 11 years old this year."

Jia Yan then said to Lin Daiyu, "She will be Sister Lin's girl from now on, let her name her."

Lin Daiyu thought for a while and said, "Then call me Lanxin."

When the girl heard about it, she thanked Lin Daiyu again.

So far, Si Qi and Lan Xin are the big girls beside Lin Daiyu.
