Xia Jingui of the Red Chamber
Chapter 43
Butler Liu blinked: "Master is right, but sir, you have to know, how can a gentleman care about a woman, and besides, it's someone else's business, why should you take it to heart?"
Uncle Sun also knew that Steward Liu's words were right, but he couldn't calm down the anger in his heart, so he should let this Xia family suffer a serious loss, otherwise she would really think that other people are just because she is a woman, but can't help her.Of course, Uncle Sun’s thoughts cannot be shared with Steward Liu. Uncle Sun only found a lame reason: "I see that my sister invited her, and I think she will definitely not come. If she does, I will let her Know……"
"Know what?" Steward Liu was still listening but couldn't hear what was behind, and asked in surprise, Uncle Sun frowned: "We want her to know what a woman should look like, instead of being domineering there." , like a crab." Although Steward Liu should be respectful, he still muttered in his heart, this is someone else's woman, is it a bit too much for the uncle to think so?
However, Steward Liu only dared to mutter in his heart, and didn't say it out loud. After talking to Uncle Sun for a few more words, he withdrew.Uncle Sun touched his chin with his hand, thinking that Xia Jingui would suffer a big loss that day, and a look of color appeared on his face.
"Brother, you can't just choose a wife for the third brother. It's been more than a year since the younger brother and sister passed away. After all, you should get another house." Aunt Sun walked in with a booklet in her hand, and saw Uncle Sun was in a daze there, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said something to him.Uncle Sun came back to his senses, and just about to stand up, Aunt Sun pressed his shoulder and handed him the booklet in her hand: "Look, these are the ones I picked out from the people I've ever attended. It suits you."
"Sister, I..." Uncle Sun only said a few words before being interrupted by Aunt Sun: "I know that you and the original brother and sister are very affectionate, but if she knows, I hope you have a descendant, let's talk ..."
Seeing that Aunt Sun was going to make a long speech again, Uncle Sun opened the booklet with a helpless smile: "Yes, yes, sister, I listen to you, just take a look." Then Aunt Sun smiled and pointed to the little booklet The description in the brochure: "Although there are several girls here, I like the Tang family the most. I'm nineteen years old this year, and the guard is widowed. I've seen this girl before. She's really pretty and generous, and it's even rarer. What's more, I have been in charge of the family for several years. Once I pass the door, I will be able to help you manage the house. If this is really settled, I will pass the door before the year before, and then let her handle the wedding of the third brother, what do you say? How good is it?"
So fast?Uncle Sun also knew that a woman who could catch his sister's attention must be very outstanding, but he always felt that there was still something missing.Seeing that Uncle Sun just groaned and didn't speak, Aunt Sun clapped her hands together: "Okay, I know if you think I don't understand your heart, and you will settle after seeing each other? Let me tell you, wait until the flower viewing feast. On this day, you quietly went to the garden and looked at it from a distance, okay?"
"Sister, why do you treat me like a young man who doesn't understand anything?" Uncle Sun smiled helplessly, and Aunt Sun spat at him: "Bah, don't come to me and say this, you and third brother, don't worry about it. At what point will you be a child in my eyes." As she spoke, Aunt Sun looked at Uncle Sun carefully, and suddenly smiled: "Or, do you already have someone in your heart? That person can't be our daughter-in-law You say it, I, the elder sister, decide for you, and then go to her and say, although I can’t be the real wife, but I, the elder sister, say what I say first, and I won’t call your daughter-in-law for you after getting through the door, you..."
The more you think about it, the more confused you become, and the helplessness on Uncle Sun's face deepens: "Sister, you also know that I am not such a Menglang person, how can there be such a woman, I just feel that I am old and worthy of other people's beauty." There's something wrong with the girl."
"Bah, bah, don't let me spit on you." Aunt Sun raised her eyebrows, and stood up as if to pinch Uncle Sun's ears: "You are only 28 years old this year, and you are in the prime of life before your thirties. What? Can't you match someone with a flowery girl?" Seeing his sister like this, Uncle Sun hastily smiled apologetically, which made Aunt Sun laugh back, and then told Uncle Sun about the benefits of Miss Tang.
Uncle Sun listened absent-mindedly, and a beautiful face suddenly appeared in front of him, both happy and angry. This woman is actually very lively.Thinking about Uncle Sun like this makes me shudder, how can I think about it this way, this woman is jealous, and she is used to turning right and wrong, she has no virtuous and virtuous virtues at all, such a woman should reveal her true colors and let everyone spurn her, Let her not be able to survive in this capital, instead of thinking about it like this.
Uncle Sun repeated these words in his heart three or four times before he felt calm and able to seriously discuss Miss Tang's benefits with Aunt Sun.
On the day when Sun's family held a flower viewing banquet, Xia Jingui got up early and put on the clothes she had prepared. Xiao She'er helped her to wash and wash her hair, and she couldn't stop praising Xia Jingui when she combed her hair: "Grandma looks like a fairy today, she will definitely be gorgeous. Surprised everyone."
"You girl, you're getting more and more clever." After returning to Xia's house, Mrs. Wei also said that she wanted Xia Jingui to pick another maid, but Xia Jingui lacked interest in these things, so she still let Xiao She'er serve her.At this moment, Xiao She'er heard Xia Jingui's praise, and she pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Baochan taught this, and Sister Baochan also said that if Grandma hadn't woken her up, she would just..."
Xia Jingui smiled, since returning to Xia's house, she has been cold to Baochan, no matter what Baochan said, Xia Jingui ignored her, and only treated Baochan as an ordinary girl.It is conceivable that Baochan must have imagined in his heart a thousand times that Xia Jingui still has some unknown powerful opponents waiting, no wonder he has lost weight at the moment, so he came to find Xiao Sheer to give good words.
Xia Jingui picked up a Jinchan Xiyue hairpin and put it on his temples: "You, go and tell your sister Baochan, telling her not to think about these things, it's very boring."
Xiao She'er was a little confused, but she still smiled and praised Xia Jingui for choosing the hairpin well. Xia Jingui looked at her beautiful self in the mirror, thinking that she was going to the Sun's house for a banquet, and she would inevitably meet that Straight male cancer Uncle Sun, why do you have to dress up for him to see?Xia Jingui stretched out his hand to unbutton his shirt, and said to Xiao Sheer, "It's still hot these two days, I'm afraid it will be very hot at noon if you wear this, go and get that moon-white jacket."
Xiao She'er looked at Xia Jingui's ocher-red peony-embroidered jacket, and said with some doubts: "Grandma, if you go to Sun's house today, you should wear this. Don't tell me the whole house is rich and gorgeous, so you just wear it for a month?" White jacket, although others will not say anything, but it doesn't look like it."
By the way, I forgot that there is another saying, if you want to be pretty, add a layer of filial piety, besides, everyone wears rich and gorgeous clothes, but if you wear plain clothes, it will make you stand out even more. Xia Jingui still has a good impression of her appearance Confident, he hesitated for a moment, seeing that the cloud shoulders next to it were plain, Xia Jingui asked Xiao Sheer to bring another bright red cloud shoulders, if it wanted to be red, it would be red, and then it would be in the crowd. Can't show it.
Thinking about it this way, by the time Xia Jingui went out, it was already too late, and there were already many guests at Zhuangzi's place where Sun's family held a flower viewing feast.Under the sun, the clothes were really hot. Xia Jingui supported Xiao Sheer's shoulders and got out of the car, and walked into Zhuangzi with a decent smile on his face.
Although this Zhuangzi was only a few miles away from the Xia family's nursery, the Sun family's Zhuangzi kept it much more delicate than Xia's nursery. Xia Jingui followed the housekeeper's wife into the Zhuangzi, and walked all the way to the garden along the winding road.The housekeeper of the Sun family is a talkative person, and she said to Xia Jingui as she walked: "Grandma Xia, originally our aunt said that we should go to the front to meet people, but there are too many guests today, and thinking that the garden is cool, we simply Just waiting for the guests in the flower hall. There is another thing, don’t worry, Aunt Xia, this garden is quite famous around here, so we are all assigned to show the guests, what’s interesting the scenery."
No wonder this journey was quite objective and cool. Xia Jingui also asked with a smile when he saw that this Zhuangzi had a bit of the elegance of Jiangnan gardens, unlike the northern gardens.The housekeeper smiled and said: "The owner of the house is originally from the south of the Yangtze River. This place was specially built by the master to imitate a garden in his hometown. It's just to comfort some homesickness."
Xia Jingui nodded knowingly, and after turning another corner, there were many more sweet-scented osmanthus trees on both sides. The housekeeper lady had already introduced: "These are flowers from Aunt Xia's nursery. Aunt Xia looks familiar to her." Yes Xia Jingui didn't feel familiar with these words, but felt that it was great that these flowers could exchange money for herself.
Turning around here is the flower hall. Aunt Sun was already waiting at the door of the flower hall. Seeing Xia Jingui coming, she walked two steps forward and smiled and said, "I'm really neglecting you. I should have greeted you at the second gate."
Xia Jingui and Aunt Sun bowed to each other, and Xia Jingui smiled and said, "On this journey, I saw the garden of the Zunfu, which is very exquisite and elegant. I can enjoy it all the way, and I would like to thank Aunt Sun for arranging it."
When Aunt Sun heard Xia Jingui's praise, the smile on her face was even more joyful, and she made a gesture of invitation to Xia Jingui and smiled, "It's just that there are still a few good Taihu stones, which are hard to buy, so that's all. Aunt Xia, please." Xia Jingui followed Aunt Sun into the flower hall. Opposite the flower hall, there was a small pavilion with a window in the building. Uncle Sun sat under the window with a face of reluctance.
Uncle Sun also knew that Steward Liu's words were right, but he couldn't calm down the anger in his heart, so he should let this Xia family suffer a serious loss, otherwise she would really think that other people are just because she is a woman, but can't help her.Of course, Uncle Sun’s thoughts cannot be shared with Steward Liu. Uncle Sun only found a lame reason: "I see that my sister invited her, and I think she will definitely not come. If she does, I will let her Know……"
