The heroine has a magical style [Red Mansion + Sword III]

Chapter 14.Give jade.

Compared with the Rongguo Mansion in Shengjing, Xue's mansion has a little more Jiangnan charm.Master Xue led the way, Jia Zhu naturally walked half a step behind him, while Shen Junzhi held the ball and followed the team leisurely.

Xue Pan was terrified of being beaten, but he didn't want to lose face in front of his sister, so he forced himself to be calm, took Baochai's little hand, and followed Master Xue step by step.

Compared with Shen Junzhi, Jia Zhu is a bit more tactful and sophisticated.Feeling the tension in the atmosphere, Jia Zhu first brought up a topic: "Cousin Xue, I wonder if my aunt is still in good health? My old lady misses her very much."

The four families have been in-laws for generations, and Master Xue's mother is the concubine of the Jia family.Although she is a concubine, she is the only young lady of that generation's Jia family. She has always been gentle and courteous, and gets along best with her sister-in-law.Over the years, Mother Jia missed this sister-in-law very much, and it was the same. The relationship between Jia's family and Xue's family became especially close.

Master Xue said with a smile: "Mother is in good health, it's just that the weather has suddenly warmed up a few days ago, and it was a bit bitter summer."

Jia Zhu hurriedly said: "My nephew got some cold ointment a few days ago, and my old lady also likes it very much. She heard that my aunt was suffering from summer, so the old lady specially asked my nephew to give it to me." As soon as the servant made a signal, the servant held an exquisite cloud wood box.

Master Xue took it and took out the celadon jar inside.There is a green paste in the sky-blue jar, just pick up a little fingertip to spread it, and feel a cool air rushing to the sky, the surrounding air is shocked, but it is not irritating, just a little The fragrance of grass and trees can only make people feel refreshed.

"Sure enough, it's a good thing, thanks to the old lady's concern." Master Xue cupped his hands slightly towards the direction of the capital, and then cared for Jia Zhu: "Zhu'er and Baoyu have worked hard on this journey, can they arrange a place to live?"

It was indeed for Shen Junzhi that he brought people to Xue's residence.However, they are relatives with two surnames. For these two nephews and nieces, Mr. Xue still has to care.

Afterwards, Master Xue asked some more questions, and Jia Zhuju answered them one by one.Although Xue's family is a merchant family, Master Xue is Ziwei Sheren.In just a few words, he observed Jia Zhu's words and deeds, and he felt that he was gentle, polite, elegant, and very different from his two cousins ​​from the Jia family.

He couldn't help but cast a glance at Jia Zhugao, and at the same time, Master Xue had a new estimate for His Highness King Xuan who was obviously with this cousin - he didn't believe that he could make friends with someone like Jia Zhu His Royal Highness Xuan Wang, will be the appearance of being so stubborn in the rumors that he was finally expelled from Beijing by his brother who couldn't bear it.

The three of them had their own concerns, and they tried many times between words.On the contrary, the two little girls, one held by Xue Pan and the other held by Shen Junzhi, turned their heads to look at each other. When their eyes met, the two pairs of big round eyes would bend into small crescents together.As if they had found some fun game, the two little girls never got tired of it.

Arriving at the flower hall where Xue's family entertained guests, Mr. Xue gave Xue Pan a sideways glance. The little fat man tightened his body, reluctantly let go of his sister's hand, walked to his father and stood still, lowered his head and looked at the ground, Dare to speak out.

Everyone sat down, and Shen Junzhi hugged Qiuqiu on his lap.Although she was round, she was petite.It's a small ball, it's okay for Shen Junzhi to wear arrow sleeves, if he wears a Confucian robe like Jia Zhu, the wide sleeves can completely cover the little girl's body.

Thinking of what he was going to talk about later, Mr. Xue pondered for a moment, ready to have his little girl taken away——There are some things that Xue Pan, who is destined to take over the Xue family, should listen to, but his little daughter really doesn't need to know .After all, master Xue has different expectations for sons and daughters.

But at this time, Baochai, who has always been obedient, bit her lip, unwilling to leave with the wet nurse summoned by Master Xue.Following her eager gaze, the little girl who was being held on Shen Junzhi's lap also looked anxious, and stretched out her pink hands to reach for Baochai vigorously.

Fearing that she would fall, Shen Junzhi hugged the ball even tighter in his arms.Glancing at Miss Xue's family standing aside, Shen Junzhi felt that she had turned into several balls in his eyes - round bun, big round eyes, round face, and The bright moon beads dangling on the earlobe.

It turns out that my little cat has gone crazy when he sees Yuanyuan?Shen Junzhi curled his lips in depression, but he didn't want to make the little girl unhappy.Gently lifted him up and put him on the ground, Shen Junzhi patted Qiuqiu's soft buttocks, and said in a muffled voice, "Go."

The little girl who received the "pardon" raised her chubby face and smiled sweetly at Shen Junzhi, not minding his rogue behavior just now.With a pair of short legs, Qiuqiu ran up to Baochai accompanied by a crisp bell sound from his ankle.

As soon as she grasped Baochai's hand, Qiuqiu called out crisply: "Sister!"

Baochai also patted Qiuqiu's head in a dignified manner, bent her crescent-like smiling eyes, and replied, "Sister."

Although the two little sisters met for the first time, they played together affectionately. Judging by their posture, they definitely had no intention of separating.

Baochai is now six years old, but she has learned to write and read some poems and books.Although Master Xue loves his little daughter Conghui, he is afraid that her temper will be too dull.Seeing Baoyu now, the child showed a rare childish nature, which made Mr. Xue couldn't bear to discipline him.

On the contrary, Xue Pan saw the string of golden bells tied to the ankles of Jia's younger sister, and looked at the fair faces of the two little girls. Xue Pan actually forgot to hold his breath just now, and he said to Shen Junzhi carelessly: "Hey, let me tell you, you said earlier that the bell was for the sister of the Jia family. The sister of the Jia family is also extremely beautiful, just like my sister."

As soon as these words came out, Master Xue's expression darkened.He looked at the son who was going to provoke Prince Xuan again, silently thinking for a while whether he should be punished for writing big characters, or should he just spank his ass?

Shen Junzhi didn't care much about Xue Pan's faux pas. He was thrown into the military camp by his imperial brother when he was eight years old. Although the Imperial Forest Army were all descendants of noble families, they were only a little better than ordinary military camps.Since we are all brothers trained in the same military camp, there is no difference in status.

So, hearing Xue Pan's words, instead of blaming Xue Pan, Shen Junzhi gave the little fat man a high look - at least this man is quite frank and straightforward, much better than those people who speak honey and have swords in their stomachs.

Just hearing Xue Pan's words, Qiuqiu's eyes fell on his ankle.She glanced at the bell tied on her ankle by her family's A Zhi himself, and then at the round young lady who was delighted at the first sight, her little face couldn't help but wrinkle into a ball.

This little bell is very similar to the one tied to his paw when he was Mingjiao's pet, Qiuqiu likes it very much.And it was given by Ah Zhi, whom she likes, so Qiuqiu is even more precious.But that "big birthday peach" just now said that this is what he wants to give to this round young lady...

Shen Junzhi's gaze never left Qiuqiu for a moment, and Jia Zhu also glanced at the younger sister several times during the conversation with Master Xue.Seeing the little tangled expression on Qiuqiu's face, Jia Zhu blinked, and soon understood the reason.

After giving a slight signal to Master Xue, Jia Zhu said to Qiuqiu: "Baoyu, sister Xue gave you the bell, shouldn't you also give something to sister Xue?"

Now Baochai is six years old, although it is said that men and women do not sit at the same table until they are seven years old.But Jia Zhu studied under Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Zhang was the most strict and observant of etiquette. The apprentices he taught were naturally gentlemen and decent, and there was no room for criticism.

And Qiuqiu, who is also a little girl, has no such scruples, and has the right to settle her sister's concern.

Hearing his brother's words, Qiuqiu Maosai suddenly realized.With a turn of her big black eyes, the little girl took off the jade pendant hanging around her waist, leaned close to Baochai and said in a low voice, "Sister, I...can I exchange this with your bell? Stop giving it to me, I..."

Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, and she listened to the whole story with her father, although Baochai was young, she also knew that it was her brother's fault, and there was no such thing as "her bell".

Reaching out to hug the little girl who was slightly shorter than him, Baochai comforted: "Sister, you don't have to do this, the young master gave it to you, it was my elder brother who was unreasonable."

But Qiuqiu stubbornly reached out and handed the jade pendant to Baochai, without any intention of taking it back.It was a piece of hibiscus jade, a specialty in southeast Anqing. It was not carved with any auspicious patterns, but a vivid kitten was outlined with a few knives on the front, and the plum blossom footprints of a kitten were on the back.The pattern carved on the pink jade is so cute, it is just suitable for girls to wear.

This was specially given to Qiuqiu by Mrs. Xu on her birthday last year.Probably because the main body is a cat, the little girl has been fond of cats since she was a child, and she even likes to embroider the pattern of kittens on the small bellyband she wears.Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Xu asked a jade craftsman to carve this jade pendant for her.This jade pendant was soon promoted to be the number one treasure of Qiuqiu other than Xiaoyugan.

Qiuqiu's thinking is very simple - she took something that the little sister likes, so she has to give her back one of her favorite things.

This is Qiuqiu. Compared with many people, her mind is the purest. Sometimes, those complicated people can't understand the most.

Fortunately, Baochai understood.

She took the jade pendant from the little hand that was persistently reaching out, put it on her waist carefully, then raised her head and smiled at Qiuqiu: "Thank you, sister~ I will definitely cherish it."

Qiuqiu shook his head and rolled his eyes.

The smiles of the two little girls were so sweet and warm that even Master Xue felt soft inside.Xue Pan looked at the two little girls who were embracing each other, pointed to Baochai's jade pendant, and then pointed to the golden bell on the ball, then he also laughed and said, "Oh, isn't this a golden and jade marriage? "

As soon as these words came out, Shen Junzhi frowned slightly, and Jia Zhu was also slightly taken aback.Only Master Xue covered his face and said with difficulty: "Pan'er, that's not how good marriage works."

Feeling that he had lost face in front of the distinguished guests, Master Xue secretly decided that he must increase the schoolwork of this kid in the future, and he must not be allowed to make such jokes again.
