[Red Mansions] Why does Xiaoye want to whitewash

Jia Lian was a little scared when he saw that Nanny Qin really couldn't get in, and her slightly burly figure stood in front of her like a hill, so she smiled awkwardly, "Then I'll go back first... ..."

Then he glanced at the door with regret, and then returned to his room step by step.It's just that when Wang Xifeng was around, he was popular even if he didn't speak, but now that people don't see him during confinement, Jia Lian began to feel uncomfortable.

At this moment, Jia Lian, who was in high spirits and had no sleepiness at all, paced back and forth on the ground. He really didn't want to go to bed, so he stood in front of the desk, picked up the cup on the desk and poured some tea on the inkstone. What kind of name should be given to the daughter.

The generation of the Jia family is of the cursive generation. It stands to reason that girls cannot be named after boys. Not to mention that Jia Qian in the Ningguo Mansion next door is like this, but Jia Lian thinks that her daughter is no worse than others. Yes, naturally she would not feel the difference between men and women in the name.

Girls like Yuanchun Yingchun are ranked alone, in fact, compared to some girls who don't even have a name, it's already considered good.But Jia Lian couldn't bear his daughter being treated differently, so he took it for granted that he came up with cursive characters for his daughter.

When I think of a suitable one, I write it down on the paper stroke by stroke, and then wait for the ink in my mind to run out, and then start to scratch down the relatively bad ones, and finally only a few are left. Decide.

So the next day, Jia Lian knocked on the door of Wang Xifeng's house with the names he had chosen.At this time, Wang Xifeng described being a little embarrassed because of confinement, so Jia Lian was naturally not allowed to come in.

Jia Lian could only shout into the room from outside: "Feng'er, how is your health?"

In fact, Wang Xifeng is still in pain, and she still has lochia constantly. If she used to be brave, but the marriage life of more than a year has made her gentler and more frank, so she directly cares about Jia Lian. Answer honestly: "I have some pain, and the medicine from the imperial physician relieved it a lot, so don't worry too much."

After Jia Lian heard this, he looked at Nanny Qin who had been guarding the door as soon as he came over for confirmation.Of course, Nanny Qin knew that the pain of a woman's childbirth was not as calm as her own lady said, but now that she had said so, she nodded her head as affirmation of what the lady said.

It's not that Jia Lian doesn't have his own judgment, even if Nanny Qin agrees, he still comforts Wang Xifeng gently: "If you're bored, just ask someone to call me, and I'll talk to you here."

In fact, Wang Xifeng spoke so loudly that it hurt her a little, but the pain couldn't stop the warmth in her heart from overflowing.The corners of his mouth kept turning up, but his tone was a little impatient and he said, "Just do what you should do, shouting outside the door makes people listen to a joke!"

"Who dares to laugh at the young master?!"

"Yes, Second Master is the most powerful!"

Jia Lian was so happy being coaxed, the corners of her lips raised slightly and she turned to ask her daughter: "Where is our daughter? How is she?"

Wang Xifeng glanced at the baby who had just woken up beside her, and said to Jia Lian, "She just woke up, and turned her head back and forth as if she could hear us. Why don't you take her out and have a look?"

There was some wind outside, and Jia Lian was not at ease to carry the child out, so she shook her head and refused: "No need, it's not good if it's windy outside."

Seeing Nanny Qin nodding in agreement, Jia Lian inexplicably had the illusion of being affirmed by the dean.After coughing, he raised his hand and said to the inside, "Feng'er, I chose a few words for my daughter's name, do you want to see it?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng nodded to Ping'er, and Ping'er came out and bowed to Jia Lian, then took the paper from the second master and returned to the house to the second grandma.

Wang Xifeng opened it, and saw the words "Peng, Fang, Yuan, Ran, Jing, Zhen" on it, not to mention the good or bad of the names, they are all cursive characters, and I don't know if they are suitable...

Before asking, Jia Lian's voice was heard again: "Feng'er, our daughter is the first child of her generation in Rongguo Mansion, and no one can find fault with naming her with a male."

Wang Xifeng also felt that her daughter could afford it, but she still said: "I think it's all good, but I still have to ask my father and grandmother's opinion... let the elders decide."

Jia Lian didn't care, so he nodded and said, "If you have no opinion, I'll go to my father and grandmother to ask their opinion."

"it is good."

Wang Xifeng asked Ping'er to hand over the paper again, but Jia Lian didn't leave directly, but looked at Qin Nanny and said, "Mammy, if there is something wrong with Feng'er's body, please don't help her hide it from me."

Qin Nanny nodded with a straight face, and agreed, "I will, but Second Mistress is in a normal state after giving birth, Second Master, please rest assured."

After asking all the necessary questions, Jia Lian said goodbye to Wang Xifeng and took his wrinkled paper to show the elders. He hesitated halfway, and went to the front yard first.

Unfortunately, Jia She was not at home. Jia Lian shrugged and felt that the choice would be easy now, so he turned to his grandmother's yard again.

When Mother Jia learned of his reason for coming, she glanced at the not-so-pretty paper in his hand with distaste, but still took it.After looking at it carefully, he said, "These words you chose are very good. You can save them for future girls in our family. For the eldest sister, you can choose the word Ran."

"Then listen to grandma, our eldest sister will be called Jia Ran." After finishing speaking, Jia Lian curled his lips.

"How is your daughter-in-law?"

Jia Lian nodded, "I asked my grandson when he first arrived, and he is in good health."

"That's good."

However, in this day and age, most people would not name their children too early in order to support their children, and then call them with a nickname first.Jia Lian thinks that it is good to be called "Ran Ran" in the future, and there is no need to have a nickname. Another thought is that if she is called "Big Sister", she will immediately feel that she is different from other children when she hears the name and status.

So after going back, Jia Lian only asked Mother Qin to convey the final name to Wang Xifeng, but did not announce it to the public, and then asked the servants in the yard to call her "big sister" in the future.

The eldest sister is the first great-grandson of the Rongguo Mansion, so it was Jia's mother who did it on her side.Even though Mrs. Wang felt that a little girl was too high-profile, her grandson was not born, so even if she felt uncomfortable, she could only accept her fate and help out.

And Jia Lian became a father for the first time, so his friends naturally wanted to come to celebrate.A group of men who talked about how old they are are full of fun. When Jia Lian faced some elders who couldn't refuse to drink, they also persuaded him to have a few drinks.

After drinking the wine, Jia Lian secretly cast a glance at Chen Mingxi, who was playing tricks at the head.But fortunately, the three banquets are not an occasion that is easy to make trouble, and there are many elders, and they all have their sense of proportion.

So when it was over, Jia Lian felt that he was just a little bit drunk, but he is a person who is easy to face after drinking. If you don't explain it, many people will think that he is not strong enough to drink.

It was still early in the courtyard, Jia Lian looked around dully, and finally walked into the study.Leaning on the couch and squinting his eyes to read the storybook for a while, unable to withstand the sleepiness, he closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I heard a knock on the door, shouted "Come in" and heard the wooden door being opened with a "squeak", and then the footsteps came from far to near.

"Second Master?"

Jia Lian opened his eyes and saw Xi'er standing in front of him, so he sat up on his arms and asked her, "Second Grandma, what's the matter?"

Xi'er glanced shyly at the second master, then bent her knees slightly and replied softly: "Back to the second master, the second grandma is worried that you will feel uncomfortable when you wake up from a hangover, so she asked the servant to bring you hangover soup."

The angle of raising her head was carefully designed, and Xi'er felt that her angle was the most beautiful. Whenever she looked at people like this, the servants in the mansion would blush and be at a loss.

Jia Lian never showed any special regard for the maids, so she directly picked up the bowl from the tray in her hand, drank it all in one gulp, and then waved her out.

Xi'er bit her lips, seeing that the second master put down the bowl and didn't even look at her, she was secretly annoyed at his incomprehensible style, then thought of her plan and twitched the corners of her lips again, and said charmingly: "There is something wrong outside. Yin, this servant will bring you a quilt in a while." After finishing speaking, he went out without waiting for the young master's answer.

When Xi'er returned to her room, she saw Le'er was there, she turned around and sat on her bed without even looking at her.Seeing this, Le'er couldn't help snorting, and said disdainfully, "I don't know what I'm so proud of?"

Xi'er picked up a box of rouge, glanced at Le'er's position, and raised one corner of her lips, "I'm not the same as you, you'll know later."

Some people just put on airs inexplicably, Le'er shook her head, twisted her body and left the room of the two of them.

Not long after Jia Lian drank the hangover soup, he fell asleep in a daze. After an unknown period of time, he suddenly felt that his whole body began to heat up, and then raised his head in a secret place.Because this feeling was not severe, he didn't take it seriously and continued to sleep.

"Young Master? The servants are here to bring you a quilt..."

He heard voices in his ears, and just as Jia Lian was distinguishing whether he was in a dream, he suddenly felt something approaching around him, and his arms felt slippery and cold. For some reason, at that moment, he felt like he had touched snake skin, and his whole body was uncomfortable. Controlled excitement for a moment...

Immediately woke up with a start, turned around in horror and saw Xi'er lying beside him with her coat off.Jia Lian's mood at that moment was like a roller coaster, and she pushed her off the couch regardless of her blushing face.

Before she could react, Xi'er, who was only wearing obscene clothes and trousers, lay down on the cold ground, shivering, and looked at the second master with mournful eyes...
