By Jia Xiuzhen

The mandarin ducks waited for Mother Jia to play cards with the old nuns, while Baoyu and others were joking around, or there was something true about the snowy eyes, and the snowy eyes outside the window became big when they saw it.Seeing this, Li Wan was afraid that the snow would make it difficult to walk, so he winked at Yuanyang. Yuanyang looked out of the window, also surprised, and lowered his head to whisper something to Jiamu.

Jia Mu was wearing presbyopic glasses to look at the cards in her hand. After hearing what Yuanyang said, she turned her head to look out of the window, and said, "Why is it snowing so much? That's all. Although it's warm here, the place is too big. I'd better go back to the house." Let’s go.” Looking at Daiyu again, he said angrily, “It’s snowing and windy, why are the windows still open? You can’t stand the cold, they should have closed them long ago.”

Xiangyun heard this, looked at Daiyu's clothes, frowned and said: "Sister Lin, you have always been weak, why do you still wear so little? Although you look good, you have to take medicine after freezing."

Daiyu’s long sunflower jacket is lined with stalactite tiger skin, which is no more than a finger thick but the lightest and warmest. She wears socks in the sheepskin boots and wears that piece of warm jade. cold.After hearing this, she smiled and reached out to shake Jia Mu's hand and said, "I'm not cold, old ancestor, touch my hand, it's hot." Jia Mu shook her hand and said with a smile: "It's really hot. , rare, it seems to be the credit of the two pieces of venison just now."

Everyone brought big clothes to their rooms, Xiangyun asked Cuilu to wear a cloak, glanced at Daiyu's gray velvet cloak, and looked at Yingchun, Baochai raised his eyes and glanced around, as if thinking think.Xichun was in a hurry, and wanted to go out without letting her nanny put on a cloak. Yingchun saw her and quickly grabbed her and said, "Why are you so anxious, there are verandas to walk on the way back, after all, it's windy, why don't you hurry up?" put on."

Xi Chunnian has a small temperament and is different from others, she is not obedient, but in the past two years, she has been in and out with Ying Chun a lot, so she has a bit of love and respect for this taciturn second sister.This time when Yingchun opened her mouth, she didn't struggle anymore, so she could only mutter and let her nanny fiddle with her cloak and warm hat.

Li Wan followed everyone back to Jia Mu's room, waited on Jia Mu to change clothes and change tea, restarted the game, and then went to his yard.After entering the room and changing clothes, I finally breathed a sigh of relief sitting on the couch.Suyun served hot tea, turned around and took a beauty paddle and tapped it on Li Wan's shoulder. Nanny Chang came in with a food box and said, "Grandma has been walking around for half a day, and she hasn't eaten a few bites, so let's get some soup first." Soup."

Li Wan shook his head and said, "I just took time to eat two bites with Feng girl, but I don't feel hungry now." After hearing this, Nanny Chang said, "I'm afraid I'm too hungry." Li Wan knew that he didn't want to eat two bites. I'm afraid Nanny Chang was worried about it, so she used it casually, saying that she wanted to rest for a while, and she didn't want anyone to guard her.

After entering the bedroom, he listened carefully and knew that Suyun and the others had dispersed, so he turned and entered the Pearl Realm.Although this Li Wan has acquired the Pearl Realm, he practiced like a soul, and his body is still a mortal body with naked eyes. After half a day, he is really tired.It's just that everyone, if you come back and fall asleep, you don't know what will be said tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.Fortunately, there is such a place, just want to go to a quiet place, Xin stepped into the Yaoxian Valley, with white walls and black tiles, and the vegetation is Yiyi.He fell down on the long couch where he usually rested, pulled a piece of thin quilt, and fell asleep peacefully.

Her place is windy and sunny, but here it is snowing like flowers.Seeing Xueda, Xiangyun became more and more happy, but he couldn't ask anyone to play with him, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed——Just as he was about to entangle Baoyu, the mother-in-law in Mrs. Wang's courtyard sent a message to find Daiyu; After making a fuss for a long time, I also wanted to rest; Yingchun and Xichun went back to the room together early.

Seeing this, Baochai said to Xiangyun, "I'm missing a companion all the way back, and I have something to ask you. Sister Yun, why don't you come and sit with me for a while?" They happily agreed, and the two went to Lixiangyuan together.Xiangyun always talked a lot, and Baochai listened attentively and inserted a few words from time to time, which made Xiangyun talk more. Such talking and laughing along the way naturally made her not lonely.

When they arrived at Lixiangyuan, Aunt Xue set up a screen in the outer hall facing the street to inquire about the shop, so Baochai took Xiangyun to her room.After sitting down for tea, Xiangyun asked: "Sister Bao, you just said you have something to ask me, what is it?"

Baochai said with a smile, "It's no big deal. I just brought some gadgets from the south, and I don't know your tastes, so I don't think I'll give them to you. It's a coincidence that today I let you choose."

After hearing this, Xiangyun hurriedly said: "Ah, my sister will be ashamed to death for saying this! I'm embarrassed if my sister remembers me so much. Why do you still talk about being picky or not?"

Baochai has asked Yinger to fetch a box. When she opened it, she found some new and exquisite jewelry popular in the south.There are pearl flowers, short hairpins, rings, earrings, thin bracelets and so on. Although the materials are not expensive, they are ingenious.Xiangyun was surprised and said, "Why are there so many? I'm going to be picky." He asked again, "Sister Lin, what can they get?" Do your best first."

Xiangyun was taken aback when he heard this, and looked at Baochai. Seeing Baochai's smile, he lowered his eyes and smiled and said, "Sister Lin is also a guest, and she came from such a long way. It wouldn't be good if she missed her." Baochai laughed and said, "That's right, although you two are guests, sister Lin has lived here for a long time, and she is no different from the sisters in the house. Besides, she is older than you, even if she is just a guest, shouldn't she let you go a little bit?"

Xiangyun sneered and said, "Sister Bao, you have such a temperament that you think so." Baochai said, "I didn't come up with this, isn't it obvious? Even the old lady said it now." The four in our family, it can be seen that they regard Sister Lin as the same as the third sister. I heard that when Sister Lin first came, the old lady ordered that the daily proportions should be compared with the third sister. I will not count her here. As a 'guest', it can be regarded as 'guest as the master'." Xiangyun saw Baochai joking, but changed his mind, and hummed: "Where is it compared to the third younger sister and the others, they are even better than the second elder brother.

Or more than that, the elder sister-in-law gave sister Lin something, but even the second elder brother didn't have it. " Baochai said: "The elder sister-in-law took the old lady's advice to teach the sisters in the house every day, so she naturally took care of her. "

Xiangyun glanced at Baochai and said: "Sister Bao just likes to say that the sister-in-law took the life of the ancestors, but she doesn't treat everyone equally." Baochai laughed and said, "If you want to say you You're really straight-hearted and childish, so just tell me what you said. Wouldn't it be sad if the third sister and the others heard it? This person also pays attention to the law of fate with others, or it is possible for sister Lin to speculate with the elder sister-in-law of."

Xiangyun sighed and said, "Not only that, since Sister Lin came, whoever doesn't look up to her, and who only votes for the sister-in-law's fate." Baochai shook Xiangyun's hand with a smile and said: "Sister Yun is worried that everyone will hurt Sister Lin, but forget her? This is impossible!" She tugged at Xiangyun's sleeve and said, "The old lady only rewarded two of Wu Yunbao's clothes in total. One is Brother Bao's, and the other one is on whose body."

Xiangyun burst out laughing when he heard this, and said: "Sister Bao was also narrow-minded, and my ancestors naturally loved me, otherwise they wouldn't have picked me up all the time to relax."

Baochai took her hand and said earnestly, "Sister Yun, don't think I'm too harsh. Your blunt temper really suits my temper, so I'll say a few more words today. In this big family life, you It must be clearer than me. You look at how those people flatter you, how much of it is just the old lady's face, and how can you talk about the quality of the character. You are the daughter of the Marquis Mansion, and you can't compare with anyone If it lacks weight, don’t be fooled by the moment, it will make you look petty.” After speaking, he hurriedly continued, “Don’t think that I’m talking too seriously…”

Xiangyun quickly turned around and took Baochai's hand, saying: "Sister, I can't understand what I said. If I blame my sister, I don't know what is good!" Shaking his head and laughing, "Sister is right! Why am I getting petty! Let's not talk about that anymore, I have to pick and choose things carefully. It's my turn to pick and choose. I can't miss this opportunity!" That box, "this ring is delicate and that pair of earrings are clever" began to comment, and Baochai added a few words from time to time, and the two of them talked happily.

When the other Baoyu arrived at Mrs. Wang, she saw that Mrs. Wang had changed her homely clothes and was facing a table with the list of Zhou Rui's family. She went up to greet Mrs. Wang and said with a smile, "it's nothing serious. It's snowing heavily today. I'm afraid you will If you are stubborn and careless, the old lady can't keep an eye on you. If you catch the wind and cold, what should you do?" Pulling Baoyu to look closely, he frowned and asked, "Why are you still wearing a padded jacket? Boy, didn't the old lady reward you with a black cloud leopard last time, why don't you change it?"

The Xiren who followed hurriedly knelt down and replied: "Originally, it can be cleaned up after taking it out. In the morning, sister Meiren saw that the weather was sunny and warm, so she didn't ask the second master to change the skin."

Mrs. Wang was about to speak after hearing this, when Baoyu tugged at her sleeve and said, "I just heard the message from the woman, and I came to see my wife in a hurry. They brought thick clothes for me to change. I thought it was too wordy and just wrapped it up." Come here with a thick cloak, it will still freeze me to my wife's place."

Mrs. Wang was stopped by him, she pursed her lips and stared at him, and said, "Don't you just stop and protect yourself, even if you don't know the severity, they don't know either? Then what's the use of these slaves!"

Xiren knelt and hurriedly kowtowed. Baoyu couldn't see this, and hurriedly said: "Xiren took the lynx cat's cloak and chased me out, but she didn't have time to put on a snow-proof clothes."

Mrs. Wang heard this, looked at it, and saw a few water marks on Xiren's shoulders, she changed her tone and said: "You are also a sincere girl, it is good to think about the master in your heart, it's just like this." No matter what you don't care about, wouldn't it be a trouble if the one you waited on got caught in the wind and cold?"

After thinking about it, he said, "The charming man asked for grace, and he was released after the new year. You came out of the old lady's house. From now on, you will naturally be in charge of matters around the second master. I don't think there is any need to wait. Today Let Meiren explain the matter to you from the beginning. You have a lot of people in the house, so take over early to prevent more mistakes and omissions in the next year." Turning to Jin Chuan'er, he said: "After a while, you follow the past and talk about it. Just say what I mean."

Jin Chuan'er hurriedly took the order and gave Xi Ren a wink. Xi Ren didn't dare to raise his head, so he kowtowed again. Mrs. Wang asked someone to help her up, and said in a flat voice, "You are from the old lady's house, you don't have to. That's it. From the previous peach blossom snow, I know that you are reliable, in the future, just take good care of your second master, take care of those ignorant hoofs, take care of them, and naturally no one can surpass you. " The attacker quickly knelt down and kowtowed again.

Mrs. Wang finished beating the servants, Fang smiled and said to Baoyu: "The things from the north sent by your uncle are nothing more than the other ones. There are two boxes of good leather. It's so cold that it just entered October this year. It's just that you choose Make some clothes to wear." Baoyu hurriedly said: "My son has already won several big clothes from the old lady and his wife, and the ones sent by uncle must be good things. My wife is always afraid of the cold in her waist and legs, so she should have too many clothes. It’s good to make a few clothes.”

Zhou Rui's family watched Mrs. Wang smile happily, and hurriedly interjected: "Second Master is really filial, you are a man, so filial, I can't blame the old ladies and wives for loving them." Mrs. Wang was even happier when she heard that, but she said : "Where can't you stand up to praise him!" He laughed again, "This child is born with such a nature. Even Mr. Xi Xi has said that he has a "childlike heart" several times. It's not just a filial piety."

Then he said to Baoyu, "If you want to pick something, you can pick some. You are getting older, so it is inevitable that you will have some human relations. Didn't the Feng family boy come here to look for you last time? This year, you have a break after school, so it's time for you to make trouble. Now that you have chosen it, let the people in your room do it quickly, just in time to wear it."

When Baoyu heard this, he didn't refuse any more, so he went through with Mrs. Wang, and picked out the leather and the noodles.Just when Jia Huan came in to say hello to Mrs. Wang, seeing Xiren and the two little maids were holding a bunch of leather goods in their hands, she lowered her head and curled her lips secretly.Mrs. Wang saluted him and asked a few things about the school. Jia Huandao let them back early because of heavy snowfall and fear that the road would be slippery and difficult to walk.Mrs. Wang nodded and let him go down.

Jia Huan went out of the room, remembering that he was underestimated in school, then looked down at the ocher jacket and blue silk jacket on his body, and thought of the leather goods and satin that Baoyu's maids were holding in their hands just now, feeling very upset.When Aunt Zhao saw him coming back, she hurriedly asked the little girl to pour hot jujube soup. Jia Huan took it and drank it without saying a word.Aunt Zhao couldn't bear to see him like this, she put the cup in her hand heavily on the table and said: "What's the matter, I don't even look good after serving you with delicious food?!"

After hearing this, Jia Huan threw the jujube soup on the table and said, "If you don't drink it, don't drink it. What a good thing!" Aunt Zhao stretched out her hand and twisted his ear, and said sharply: "You tell me again?! You are a low-ranking son, and what kind of bullshit did you get, and you ran to me to vent your anger!"

Naturally, Jia Huan wouldn't let her handle it, and she was flying around for a while.Aunt Zhou, who was going to talk to Aunt Zhao outside the house, heard the movement inside, stood silent for a moment, turned around and walked away holding the little girl's shoulders.

Finally, Aunt Zhao figured out what Jia Huan was thinking, and she became more and more angry at him for not being able to live up to it, and said in a loud voice: "You shameless thing! Is he a master, are you a master?! Of course you should have what he deserves! This is all blocked, Why don't you hurry up and ask for your own share? Come back and throw plates and bowls to vent your anger on me, you can see that you are worthless!"

Although Jia Huan was young, he felt something was wrong when he heard this, so he retorted: "Usually, I always say that I went to Gaopan. I, I won’t believe you if I provoke the master to scold me and you don’t speak up for me.” Aunt Zhao became angry when she heard Jia Huan slap her in the face like this, and said loudly: “Today I will let you know what to listen to. !"
