[Red Mansion] Hairpins fly when they are

Another day passed, and it was a good day for Jia Yucun's good friend Chen Youming to get married. The Chen family sent a happy post and asked them to come and visit.

Mrs. Song likes people to hold weddings the most, but unfortunately the weather is getting colder and she is unwilling to move, so the matter of going out as guests falls to Fan Jiaoxing and Baochai.

Baochai is not afraid of the cold, and even looks forward to it. She hasn't seen the ancients get married yet, and last time she promised Mrs. Chen that she would definitely go.

Fan Jiaoxing's expression was indifferent. From the bottom of her heart, she didn't want to get close to merchants.Everyone else is going to high places, but she is the only one. Since the master lost his official position, she has not had much social contact, but even so, she would rather stay at home than go to the merchants to cheer.

Jia Yucun valued Chen Youming very much. He not only prepared a generous gift, but also specially bought two sets of new jewelry and sent them to the east and west compartments.

Thinking that the master would also go out as a guest together, Fan Jiaoxing rekindled her interest and rummaged through the matching clothes.

She suddenly remembered that Baochai wore a pomegranate red dress, which looked very good. Fan Jiaoxing also had a dress of this color, so she hurriedly found it and put it on for gestures.

Qiuyue waited on the side, deliberately persuading her to change.

The bride is wearing bright red, and his wife is wearing pomegranate red, and she is not a guest sent by the woman. Anyway, there are more than one set of good-looking dresses, so why bother to dress so close to the bride?

Thinking about Fan Jiaoxing's temperament, Qiuyue kept her mouth shut, not daring to say more.

Fan Jiaoxing looked beautiful in front of the mirror. It had to be said that the red color was very radiant, and she felt that her face was a little rosy.

Just as she was about to order Qiuyue to iron it, she remembered something and hurried to the west chamber to find Baochai.

"What clothes will my sister wear to go out tomorrow?" Fan Jiaoxing asked bluntly as soon as she entered the door.

Baochai quickly realized that she was afraid that she would clash with her, so she called Yinger to serve tea and invited Fan Jiaoxing to sit down, and politely replied: "I haven't decided yet, what should my sister wear?"

Fan Jiaoxing covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and giggled twice: "Just now, the girl turned over the box and found out that there is still a set of pomegranate red that hasn't been worn on her body. It's a pity to keep it for nothing. I plan to wear it tomorrow."

"I see." Baochai nodded, just as Yinger brought tea, Baochai took a cup and handed it to Fan Jiaoxing, "Then I'll wear the lilac-colored one tomorrow."

Fan Jiaoxing's goal was achieved, she was satisfied, and she asked to see what jewelry Baochai would wear tomorrow, in the name of helping her reference.

The last time I sent Bu Yao off to Jiayu Village, Fan Jiaoxing's was inlaid with green jade beads, while Baochai's was inlaid with pearls. Fan Jiaoxing learned from her experience and thought that before Baochai had worn it, she could wear the two pairs of jewellery. Choose from here.

After all, I am the first one, and as my elder sister, I just choose one of the two, and it's not that I don't want to keep it for Baochai, so why not?

Baochai didn't think much of it, and told Ying'er to get it quickly.

Ying'er entered the inner room, and came out quickly, holding a box in her hand, Fan Jiaoxing was impatient, before she could approach, she got up and took two steps to meet her, took the box, then went back to her seat and sat down, full of interest When I opened it, I was instantly lost.

It's exactly the same as hers, what else is there to provoke!

Fan Jiaoxing closed the box, put it on the kang table, forced a smile, got up and said: "There is still something to do in the house, I should go back too, younger sister dress up well tomorrow, don't let the master lose face."

"Thank you, sister, for your guidance." Baochai smiled, and walked her to the door before turning back.

Yinger was puzzled, and murmured to Baochai in a low voice: "Mrs. Fan is also strange. She kept asking to see the jewelry, but she only glanced at it and didn't have a single reference. Isn't this torturing me?"

"Forget it." Baochai waved his hand, "Go and find that little lilac-colored jacket and match it with a skirt. Iron it and hang it up. I'll wear it tomorrow."

Ying'er got angry when she mentioned this, her daughter and Mrs. Fan were on equal footing, why should one wear red and the other lavender when going out?

"I remember there is still a set of Begonia red in the box, how about another one?" Yinger asked.

"No, as long as the clothes look good, it doesn't matter what color it is." Baochai didn't like doing this, as if she was fighting Fan Jiaoxing.

"Okay then." Seeing that Baochai couldn't be persuaded, Ying'er regrouped and went to open the box to find the dress.

The next day, Baochai woke up early, washed and dressed, and Jia Yucun slowly got up and got out of bed.

Baochai was wearing a lilac-coloured fur-collared jacket with a ivory-colored embroidered red plum inlaid with gold trim, and a set of brand-new jewelry on her head. With almond eyes, peach cheeks, bright eyes and white teeth, she stood there gracefully, as if A plum blossom just blooming on the branch.

Jia Yucun couldn't take his eyes off it, but it was Baochai who woke him up: "Let the girl fetch water to wash up? I have to go to the Chen Mansion for a wedding in a while."

"Ah."

Jia Yucun came back to his senses, hugged Baochai's waist and wanted to kiss him, but Baochai turned his head to avoid it, and said with a smile, "Don't mess around, I just got dressed, and I have to make up again later, don't you want to Have a mouthful of rouge?"

Baochai put on lipstick, which was bright red, moist and shiny. Jia Yucun admitted that it looked good, but he still preferred the original natural pink color.

He doesn't like eating rouge that much!

Jia Yucun resentfully let go of her, shouted to the girl to fetch water, then went out to wash up, and changed into the new robe that Baochai made, feeling very happy.

In the past, he was not a person who paid too much attention to clothes, as long as he was generous and upright. Recently, when he thought of Jia Baoyu several times, he inevitably panicked, for fear that Baochai would dislike him for being too old.

Age is irreversible, so one can only work hard on clothes. Those calm and elegant plain robes such as indigo, royal blue, and blue-gray that he used to wear in the past have all been thrown into the cold palace.

The new gown was made from a bolt of tooth-colored satin with dark flowers selected by Baochai. Several laces were added to the neckline, cuffs and hem, and it felt different instantly after wearing it.

Jia Yucun took pictures again and again in front of the mirror. No wonder women like to embroider on their clothes. It seems that men are also indispensable. Now he feels that he is several years younger.

"This robe is not bad. Later, you can pick out a few more pieces of cloth and let the girls make a few more dresses than this one." Jia Yucun straightened his cuffs and said calmly.

"At first I was worried that you wouldn't like it." Baochai said, "It's too late now, let's talk about it when we get back."

The two went to the main courtyard to pay their respects to the elders, and after having breakfast together, Jia Yucun led Fan Jiaoxing and Baochai out for a visit.

Three sedan chairs left from the gate, and the house suddenly became deserted.

Mrs. Song left Mrs. Xue behind, Yuhuan served hot tea and snacks, and the room was lit with incense. Mrs. Song dragged Mrs. Xue to chat.

After talking about a bunch of trivial matters, her expression suddenly darkened, and her brows were slightly frowned.

"Sigh, I don't know when my son will be able to wear official robes again." The old lady Song sighed with a sad face, "He has studied hard for decades, and his family is about to prosper, but why... Sigh!"

The old lady didn't understand the big things outside, and her son resigned as soon as he said it. She didn't dare to object at all, but she just didn't feel fair in her heart.

"Old lady, please relax." Mrs. Xue quickly persuaded her, "Young master's ability is first-class, with a whole body of knowledge, you will definitely have the opportunity to serve the court in the future. Speaking of which, young master was also implicated by the Rongguo Mansion. "

Mrs. Song felt a little better after being persuaded, and seeing that the Xue family did not favor the Rongguo Mansion, she felt more at ease. With the mentality of reciprocating, she mentioned Xue Pan.

"You also want to be more open. Young master Xue is still young. Since childhood, there are groups of servants, rich clothes and good food. He was misled for a while and led astray. When he comes out of it, he will definitely change his face. In the future, your blessings will still exist What's behind."

Hearing this, Mrs. Xue sighed softly. Now that everything is ready, she only hopes that the court will give her a chance to redeem herself.

Mrs. Song patted the back of Xue Shi's hand, and brought up Baochai again: "Speaking of a prosperous family, there must be no fewer children. Now I'm counting on Baochai..."

Before he finished speaking, the senior executive asked to see him outside.

The senior executives were steady and loyal, and the master didn't call, if there was no serious matter, he would not rush into the backyard to ask for an interview, so Mrs. Song hurriedly asked him to come in.

The senior executive entered the door, greeted you first and then lowered his head and said: "Old lady, a group of servants came outside suddenly..."

Mrs. Xue had personally experienced the ransacking of homes in Rongguo Mansion, and knew how domineering and terrifying officials were, so she trembled in fright when she heard this, and her face turned as white as snow.

The old lady Song was also taken aback, thinking that there was something wrong with Jia Yucun, she stood up and asked anxiously, "What are the servants here for?"

"Don't worry, old lady, it has nothing to do with my master." The executive's family hadn't finished speaking yet, seeing that the old lady was thinking too much, she didn't care about asking the master to speak calmly, and hurriedly said the following words, " They said they escorted Young Master Xue back."

The fourth prince, Zhu Yu, was also very fast in doing things. He was still a prince no matter how unfavored he was. Coupled with the contacts left over from his grandfather, it was a breeze to get Xue Pan out of prison.

The people above spoke, and the people below were very polite to Xue Pan. Before releasing him, they specifically inquired about the current situation of Xue's family. Knowing that they were all settled in the original Jing Zhaoyin's house, they took the initiative to send him here.

Xue was surprised and delighted, she couldn't believe it at all, she stood there dumbfounded, but her tears had already flowed out.

Mrs. Song was really happy for Mrs. Xue, and quickly pushed her: "Go out and have a look."

"Hey, hey!" Mrs. Xue wiped away her tears and hurriedly walked outside.

Mrs. Xue was both happy and afraid, afraid that the servants or housekeepers would make a mistake. Maybe someone outside happened to have the surname Xue, but it wasn't necessarily Xue Pan.

Mrs. Song followed behind, supported by Yuhuan and Yuxi. Under such circumstances, no one would persuade Mrs. Xue to walk more slowly.

The position of a son in a woman's heart is the same, and Mrs. Song can especially understand her.
