The Agricultural Tycoon of the Red House
Chapter 106 Pregnancy Women's School
Baoyu had this intention in his heart, but he dared not respond.Doing business is two levels lower than farming. If he really makes a living from it, his father may be the first to break his leg.
When Jia Lian saw him, he had only a little courage, so he had nothing to say.He didn't even have the courage to agree, let alone let him open a shop.
As soon as the fifth day passed, Jia Lian asked a few literati to copy the books.
The students of Jia's Academy heard that they could make money by copying books, and they also had a meal of chicken, duck, fish and meat at noon, and they all came to join in the fun.The main reason is to be able to play around in the Rong Mansion, just to have a legitimate reason to save the trouble of following relatives around with parents.Jia Lian did not have high requirements for copying books, as long as the handwriting was handsome, he could pass the test.In order to prevent too many mistakes, each person is only responsible for copying a fixed number of pages, and the page numbers are marked.In the end, everyone's transcriptions were combined and bound into a book.It took a total of seven or eight days for more than twenty students, plus five hired people, to copy out about five hundred copies of the handbook compiled by Jia Lian.
When Jia Lian was checking and accepting the manuscript, Baoyu walked over awkwardly holding a Xuan kiln porcelain box.
Jia Lian saw a few hosta flowers in his porcelain box and asked him what was the matter.
Baoyu hesitated for a long time before she asked Jia Lian to extend her hand shyly.
Jia Lian felt that Baoyu was a bit strange, but in front of everyone, he couldn't directly wipe Baoyu's face, so he extended his hand to him.
Baoyu took out a jade hairpin, poured it into Jia Lian's palm, and dropped a handful of powder.Baoyu put the powder on the back of Jia Lian's hand and gently rolled it away.The powder was spread very evenly, making the skin on the back of Jia Lian's hands more delicate.
Jia Lian's hands tend to get rough seasonally as he touches things in the farmland all the year round.It's winter now, and the hands are clean and slender, which is the time to look good.
Because there is less powder, everyone is far away, and because of Baoyu's body blocking it, they can't see clearly.At first glance, everyone thought that Baoyu was abrupt, put a flower in someone's hand, and then took the opportunity to rub it.
Second Master Lian's hands are indeed too good-looking, but looking at them, they are also very old men.Did Second Master Bao fall asleep?Touching a man is still his second brother, isn't that sick!
"I made this by grinding jasmine seeds and mixing it with spices, and this rouge, which I also made myself." Baoyu said that he took out the small box from his sleeve, and dipped some of it with his fingers to give Jia Lian a try.
Everyone suddenly understood.
Jia Lian hurriedly pulled her hands away.This kid is crazy, try rouge on him?
Baoyu was in a hurry to defend himself, but Jia Lian called Xing'er over and brought up the idea of a rouge shop, and asked Xinger to coordinate with Baoyu to see Xu Qi, the housekeeper.
Baoyu thanked him gratefully, feeling that the burden on his body was suddenly unloaded, and he felt relaxed, so he happily followed Xing'er.
The porcelain box was still there, and Jia Lian asked someone to carry it to the back house.Jia Mu and others are in a lively room, playing cards.Jia Mu won several rounds, and she was happily happy when she suddenly heard the girls cheering up and asking them what was the matter.
Yingchun picked up a hosta flower and sent it over. When Jia Mu heard that it was made by Baoyu, she was very happy, so she tried it, "Sure enough, it is better than the ones on the street. I am old and my face is also picky. Let me give it a try." It doesn't itch."
"It's not bad." Even Jingxin, who has been using the royal offering, fully approves, "But I like this rouge better."
Jingxin sent the small box of rouge up, and Mother Jia smelled it, tried it again, and smiled cheerfully. "It's good, but he's useless at first. Heh, if this matter gets to his father's ears, he will be scolded and beaten."
"Let me tell you, Second Brother Bao is really smart. He didn't waste time hanging out in the inner curtains, and finally learned some talents. This thing is made more delicately than us girls, and it is worth using." Tanchun laughed.
Yingchun and others also agreed.
The old lady was coaxed and praised Baoyu for her talent in this area.
"Could this ability be born?" Jingxin laughed.
Jia's mother was puzzled: "How do you say?"
Jingxin turned her head to look at Mrs. Wang who had been silent over there, and mentioned to her about Baoyu's arrest of Zhou when she was a child.
Mrs. Wang sighed, and said very firmly: "That's right, I was useless when I was young, and I only caught makeup, hairpins and the like, and I was angry with the master for three days."
Jia Mu laughed, "Speaking of it this way, he is really a natural, it's hard to be better than us girls."
"As long as this thing is sold well, I can earn a lot of money. My mother has two cosmetic shops in Beijing, and the monthly income is less than this amount." Jingxin stretched out five fingers.
"It's the most profitable in the shop for a month." Mrs. Xing exclaimed.
"Where there are women, there are makeup fans. For the sake of beauty, would you be reluctant to part with this little money? If you can enshrine it in the palace, you can earn more." Jingxin was thinking.
Shi Xiangyun approached Jia Mu with a half-smile, "Look at sister-in-law, she's caught Qian Qian's eye."
An ordinary girl might feel humiliated when she hears this, but Jingxin doesn't care about it. She has traveled far and wide and has seen a lot, "You haven't married yet, so of course you don't know how expensive Chai Mi is. Got it. Don’t think money is dirty or vulgar. I haven’t seen any noble person who doesn’t spend money and doesn’t eat. People can’t live without money. Even saints still talk about money every day, eager to fill the treasury. "
"Look at your mouth, you will dare to provoke your sister-in-law, you will be at a disadvantage." Yingchun stretched out his hand to pinch Xiangyun's mouth.
Tanchun waited to scare her and make up for it.
Xiangyun hurriedly apologized to Jingxin.
"Don't be rude, talk to your sister-in-law and housekeeper. Only when your wallet is full, will someone be willing to work for you." Jia Mu poked Xiangyun's waist with a smile.
Xiang Yun giggled and dodged while agreeing.
Shi Xiangyun was taken over by Jiamu to live in the mansion two days ago.The first time I saw Lian's second sister-in-law, I felt that she was dignified and kind, so I was very willing to get close to her.But after getting closer, she felt that she was familiar with her, and she didn't care about the consequences when she spoke.
Baoyu respected and feared his second sister-in-law, and secretly told Shi Xiangyun to be more careful when facing the second sister-in-law.Shi Xiangyun didn't believe in this, but felt that she and Lian's second sister-in-law were very close, which Baoyu didn't understand.
After dinner today, Shi Xiangyun happily ran over to pester Jingxin, asking her to help him play chess with Yingchun.
"I can't always beat her. I'm going to gamble tonight. Whoever loses will invite the sisters to have a meal. I don't want to lose. My second sister-in-law is excellent at playing piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting. You have to help me."
Jing Xin hurried back to serve Jia Lian for dinner, upon hearing this, she declined with a smile: "I'll help you, isn't it a shame? Be good, go and play by yourself, my sister-in-law has other things to do."
"It's all over. Don't you have any free time? Then I have to take you there so that you can have a good rest. Don't be exhausted by that little housework."
Jingxin was a little speechless, did Shi Xiangyun really not understand or pretended not to understand?She couldn't tell a maid who hadn't left the court bluntly that she was eager to go back to see her husband.
"Good sister-in-law, please. I have made an agreement with them. If I can ask you to come and help me, I will win if I win."
Jingxin smiled helplessly, why did those eccentric maids agree so much? Didn't they all know that she had to go back to accompany Jia Lian at this time, so naturally they would not agree.
"If you lose, the money for the treat will be on my sister-in-law, okay?" Jingxin patted Shi Xiangyun's hand and smiled kindly.
"That can't be done. If you lose, you won't be happy if you win! Good sister-in-law, you can stay with me. However, if you really have something to do, then that's fine, Xiangyun won't make things difficult for you." After Shi Xiangyun finished speaking, he blinked pitifully Looking at Jingxin with closed eyes, water can be squeezed out of his eyes very quickly, which makes people unbearable.
Jingxin looked at this posture, and if she shouldn't, she was afraid that Shi Xiangyun would be unhappy, so she nodded and agreed to go.On the bright side, Jingxin doesn't care about anything with an unreasonable little girl.But through this incident and the fact that she spoke too casually before, she understood some of Shi Xiangyun's temperament.She wouldn't say anything about the old lady's relatives, even Jia Lian's own sister, she just kept it in her heart and kept the relationship lightly.
Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun were already waiting in the room, when suddenly Shi Xiangyun came in with a laugh, accompanied by Lian's second sister-in-law.The three sisters were stunned for a moment.
Shi Xiangyun smiled triumphantly: "Didn't think of it? I really brought the rescuers here."
"Look, look, just a casual gossip, you really troubled the second sister-in-law to come here. Even if you win, it's a victory without force, and you're ashamed to panic!" Yingchun looked at Jingxin and hinted Shi Xiangyun euphemistically, "Quickly call sister-in-law Go back and rest, you can do it yourself."
"Hey, you can't play tricks. I agreed that if I can move in the second sister-in-law, you have to be convinced if I win you. This time I really saw someone coming. Are you dumbfounded and afraid of losing?" Shi Xiangyun laughed happily Yes, and proudly showed off his close relationship with Lian's second sister-in-law, which they couldn't compare to.
To welcome the spring, look at the spring.
Tanchun smiled and moved his eyeballs, hinting to Yingchun: Look, the second sister-in-law is not unwilling, so don't worry about it.
Yingchun thought about it, so she sat down and started the competition.
Shi Xiangyun was generous, and said to Tanchun and Xichun, "I promise you both will help Second Sister."
"Look, you're so crazy, isn't it just bringing in a powerful rescuer, I don't believe we can't beat us with so many people." Tanchun said with high spirits.
As soon as this remark came out, both sides were full of fighting spirit.After a game of chess, Jing Xin killed them all.Of course the chess player is Shi Xiangyun, but they are all at the mercy of Jingxin.
Sister Sanchun sighed and refused to accept, and wanted to fight again.Shi Xiangyun proposed with great interest: "For the next competition, we need to increase the bet, and the bet should be bigger. How about setting up a good theater troupe and inviting old ladies and wives to watch the play together?"
"How much money does the prank troupe cost? Are you going to empty out our houses?" Yingchun asked with a smile.
"I'm not afraid, I have a sister-in-law, don't I?" Xiangyun turned his head and winked at Jingxin triumphantly.
Jingxin smiled warmly, without saying a word.
Shi Xiangyun assumed that she agreed, and asked Yingchun and the others: "Will you bet?"
"Gamble!" Tanchun said flatly.
Jingxin cleaned her hands, took a leisurely sip of tea, and saw the curtain at the door opened a crack, revealing her head.Mei Guoer's probe was what she had ordered in advance.Jingxin immediately called her in.
Mei Guo'er opened her mouth and said, "Second Master wants to find a pair of jade gourd bottles, so I sent a message to ask grandma."
"It's in the back building. Go inside and go in the third row of shelves. At the end, there's the second red box from the left. Forget it, I'll take you to get it myself." Jingxin stood up and said goodbye to Shi Xiangyun regretfully.
Shi Xiangyun turned into a bitter face in fright, and looked at Jingxin pleadingly.She just owed her money, so she bet hard. If she loses, she won't be able to get the money, so she won't be laughed out of the mouth.
"Second sister-in-law..."
Jing Xin blocked her first: "I want to stay too, but I can't delay your second brother Lian's serious business, don't you think?"
When asked directly like this, Shi Xiangyun of course had to nod his head, and reluctantly looked at Jingxin to go, and his heart began to howl.
Yingchun and the others didn't sympathize with her, she provoked the matter and told her to continue the competition happily.Shi Xiangyun lost against the scalp, and then made excuses to escape first, but at least he didn't let them immediately set a date to invite them.Go back and look through your own private house. It's just after the new year, and the servants around me always want to reward some, and the rest is hardly enough.Originally, she was not welcomed in Shijia, and she had to do her own needlework, not to mention asking her uncle and aunt to give her money.I got a few golden melon seeds when I came to the old lady, and I spent all of them, and I lost even my waistline money in the future.
Shi Xiangyun immediately thought of Baoyu, so he had to borrow it from him.
When Jingxin came back, it was already dark.Jia Lian had already finished his dinner, changed his clothes, and half-lyed on the couch to read a book.
Jingxin breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and sat beside Jia Lian and beat his legs, "Go out for another run, are you tired?"
As soon as Jia Lian grabbed her small wrist, he pulled her into his arms, stooped to kiss him secretly with a smile.After Jingxin took a bath and changed clothes, Fang went to bed and lay face to face with Jia Lian.
Jia Lian covered her with a quilt, touched her cold face, "It's hard to deal with the old lady?"
"No." Jing Xin smiled and grabbed Jia Lian's hand.
Jia Lian was puzzled, "Then why come back so late?"
"Played a game of chess, helping Xiangyun against the second younger sister." Jingxin would not bother Jia Lian with such a trivial matter, and just replied indifferently.
Jia Lian lowered her eyes and didn't say anything, just hugged Jingxin, ran her fingertips across her hair, and then smelled a faint fragrance.
Jia Lian's hand was sliding down, Jingxin blushed and shrank into Jia Lian's arms.
"Are you here?" Jia Lian asked suddenly.
Jingxin looked at him blankly, and suddenly realized that Jia Lian was talking about sunflower water, counting the days, it really is these days.
"No—" Jingxin's heart was pounded heavily, "Two days ago, my mother-in-law asked me if I should hire a doctor. At that time, I was busy with Chinese New Year. I thought I was just tired and the date was not accurate."
"Just look at it." Jia Lian said lightly, but the corner of his mouth was filled with a smile that couldn't be suppressed.
When Jingxin thinks that she will have a child, she is very happy and excited. She really wishes to ask the doctor to confirm it now.She has been looking forward to this child for a long time.
"Second master likes boys or girls?" Jingxin asked.
"I like you." Jia Lian smiled.
Jingxin blinked playfully, "What a clever answer, I don't even know what to say."
"I told you earlier, I would like it if you were not born." Jia Lian scratched the bridge of her nose and told her to go to sleep.If you are really pregnant, you need to have a regular schedule to treat your child well.
Jing Xin was so excited that she couldn't sleep, probably because she was worried about the result of the pulse diagnosis tomorrow.Still, he closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.Just when she realized that she couldn't fall asleep, she heard someone calling her the zodiac sheep, the voice was low and pleasant to hear.
Jingxin snickered for a while, enjoying listening to Jia Lian's voice, and finally fell asleep at some point.
The next day when I checked the pulse, the old doctor twirled his beard and nodded happily.
Really good news!
Before the doctor could return, Jia Lian had already put down his words and offered the reward.
The old doctor is very thankful.
But Jing Xin was worried, and she wept with joy until the doctor told her that she was really pregnant, and happily took Jia Lian's hand.
When the happy news reached Jia Mu, it was naturally a good meal.Because Jia's mother had always believed that Jia Lian was sick and could not give birth to a child, she felt that the child was hard-won and a gift from God.This is a miracle, the reward must be doubled.
This incident aroused the envy of Mrs. Wang, who had just recovered, and Jia Zheng was even more jealous, needless to say.But this couple can do nothing but be jealous.Later, Mrs. Wang still wanted to wrap up a congratulatory gift, and came to take a closer look at Jingxin on behalf of the second room, and she had done everything she said on her face.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang are now living with their tails between their legs, and they absolutely dare not offend Jia Lian, especially Jing Xin.Every time Mrs. Wang sees her, she thinks of the stupid things Jia Zheng did to insult her family's reputation, and her heart trembles every time.So even if Mrs. Wang saw Jingxin, she couldn't chat for a few words, so she ran away quickly.After leaving, Mrs. Wang still secretly felt angry for a while, before she could go back to her remote mansion in a sedan chair and continue to suffer.
As for Jia Amnesty, he was overjoyed when he got the good news, and his thoughts were similar to Jia's mother.But he didn't feel that his son was lucky, but that his daughter-in-law was up to date.If it were someone else, they would definitely not have the stamina of a daughter-in-law. They would have been crying and looking for death and life. Can they still conceive?
So Jia Amnesty praised Jingxin severely this time.He spent all the money from the scriptures he published some time ago, bottles and cans, plus a few ancient fans he had saved before, and gave them to Jingxin to congratulate him.
But for his son, Jia Amnesty felt he had to hurry up.Regarding infertility, he had consulted a doctor a long time ago, and if he was lucky, there would still be, there was no absolute.It is good luck that Jingxin can get pregnant this time.But it might not be the case next time, so we still have to hurry up and treat Jia Lian.Ever since he knew that Jia Lian was unlikely to have children, Jia Amnesty had never expected that he would be able to have a full house of children and grandchildren.
That's how people are, when they find what they lack, they want what they want.
Jia Amnesty also told Mrs. Xing not to be idle these days, and to spend more time in the Buddhist hall and pray more if she has nothing to do, so that her eldest daughter-in-law would best have a fat boy in one child.At least even if Jia Lian is useless, he can guarantee that their big house will have successors.
On the third day, Jia Amnesty took a strange doctor surnamed Zhang whom he had found by jumping up and down with all his strength, to see Jia Lian.
Jia Amnesty rushed straight to Jia Lian's study: "Hurry up, hurry up, follow me to see the doctor."
Jia Lian ignored him and continued to write with downcast eyes.
"Didn't you hear me? Follow me to see the doctor. I spent a lot of effort and paid a lot of money to hire that doctor. He will be gone after passing this village." Jia She said anxiously.
Jia Lian was puzzled, "I'm not sick, why should I see a doctor?"
"You brat, why are you not sick? You said it yourself, you can't do it!" Jia Amnesty scolded while blowing his beard.
"When? What were the original words?"
"It's just..." Jia She scratched his chin and thought about it for a while, "The time you said the problem was with you."
"I said, 'Come to me if you have any problems', it's you who come to me with problems, not me." Jia Lian corrected.
Jia Amnesty was embarrassed, his face turned blue, pale, and finally turned red, "You kid playing me? Are you not sick at all? Then you—"
Jia Amnesty wanted to blame Jia Lian, since he had misunderstood, he should have made it clear earlier.But thinking about it carefully, I don't seem to have brought up the matter with Jia Lian. It seems that this matter is really Jia Lian's fault.
"You bastard, your grandma and I are worrying in vain if you call me!" Jia She jumped angrily, in fact, he jumped angrily because of his idiot behavior.
"I don't know. If father is not willing, then let's confront our ancestors?" Jia Lian asked with a smile, as if he really didn't know about Jia Amnesty's misunderstanding.
"It's over, it's over, the old lady has been worrying for so many days, if I really tell him it's my fault, she will scold me to death." Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty quickly changed his attitude, with a flattering smile on his face, Pull Jia Lian aside and talk carefully.
"My dear son, this is father's fault."
"Forget?" Jia Lian raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"Yes, it's my father's fault. But the old lady is really hard to explain. Can you hide it for your father and admit the disease first. After a while, you will say that you saw the doctor and took the medicine, and the disease disappeared. Okay, how about it?"
"Hmm..." Jia Lian gave Jia She an appetite for a long time, and suddenly said flatly, "It's not for my benefit, I don't want to agree."
"You dare to threaten your father! Forget it, what benefits do you want?" Jia Amnesty retreated.
"No more concubines, no more roommates, you can drink, you can't get too drunk, you can collect fans, you can't bully, buy and sell by force. From now on, you can't do anything unkind or unrighteous, which violates the scope of normal morality thing."
Jia She suddenly petrified, his face was black and pitch black.
Jia Amnesty gritted his teeth angrily, "Are you negotiating terms, one for so many, thanks to the fact that you still open a shop to do business, is your terms fair?"
"It's especially fair to those who may be bullied by you." Jia Lian smiled at Jia She with a good temper.Recently, he heard that there is an additional teacher in the capital, surnamed Jia.In view of the inertia of the original book, Jia Lian blocked the way of Jia Amnesty first, lest if he didn't pay attention that day, the stone nerd would jump out and be bullied to death by Jia Amnesty.
Jia Amnesty said firmly, "I don't agree."
"Meiguoer, take those two boxes of tribute tea and go to see the old lady!" Jia Lian suddenly shouted.
"Don't! I agree, why don't you agree?" My son was really sure, fast, and merciless when he did things.Jia Amnesty knows Jia Lian too well, he is really capable of doing it, so it's better... just give in for now.
……
In the past two days, Shi Xiangyun was really enthusiastic about Jingxin's pregnancy.She thought she had a good relationship with Lian's second sister-in-law, and she should be obliged to come and accompany her every day, so she urged Sister Sanchun to come over and chat with Jingxin together.
When a woman is pregnant, she is prone to fatigue and quietness, especially when her appetite is poor in the early stages of pregnancy, and she is even more tired of dealing with others.When these sister-in-laws came to see her, Jing Xin dared not neglect her, she naturally had to take care of her every time she came.
Mother Jia also acted as girls out of kindness to relieve her sister-in-law's boredom and was very supportive.
But Jia Lian couldn't bear this, especially after hearing from Feng'er that Shi Xiangyun was very noisy every time he brought people over.He directly discussed with Mrs. Xing, and after the fifteenth day, he asked Yingchun to wait for a few to go to class.
Although it was a little early, Mrs. Xing had always supported Jia Lian, and she nodded in agreement.Especially when Jia Lian presented a pair of jade bracelets as a 'bribe', Mrs. Xing paid more attention to this matter and personally supervised it.
In view of the fact that there is a mindless guest at home.In order to improve the girls' emotional intelligence in dealing with affairs in the future, Jia Lian sent his mother-in-law to invite two gentlemen for the girls.One is a female teacher who has read poetry and books, and the other is an old nanny who has experienced many things in the world.Connotation and self-cultivation are important, but you also need to know a little bit about the world, at least know how to stay away from bad people in the future.Jia Lian also specially asked Mrs. Xing to tell the gentlemen to leave homework for Shi Xiangyun, on the one hand to promote her study, and on the other hand to save her from harassing Jingxin when she has time.
When Jia Min heard about the women's school, she thought this method was very good, and she wanted to hire two stalwarts for Daiyu.Mother Jia asked her to let Daiyu come to Rongfu to attend classes. Anyway, the two families are very close, and it happened that she also wanted Daiyu to live here for a while.
So Daiyu joined the girls' school.
For the first few days, everything was peaceful.Later, for some reason, Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun started arguing.And in the middle, there is absolutely no mixing of Baoyu.Baoyu has been very busy recently, and has been researching new rouge for his shop.
The author has something to say:
--------------------------------------- No Responsibility Small Theater -------- ------------------------------
Baoyu: (screaming) This time the girls are arguing, but it's none of my business.
Baochai (raising hands enthusiastically): It has nothing to do with me, I didn’t participate
Big Fish (Innocent): You haven’t had much acting roles recently, what have you been doing?
Baochai (angry): It's not because of you, the author, where did you write about me!I'm the second heroine.
Big Fish: (⊙o⊙) Terrible, when it is agreed to follow along, how about being gentle and compliant?
Baochai: (slams down angrily) I'm not Rejoice, there's no need to be submissive!Add some drama to me!strongly demand!
The big fish rolled away, round, round, round.
Baochai:……
-------
Take the first sentence of Baoyu's words.
Daiyu: haunted
Shi Xiangyun: Who are you talking about?
Daiyu: What are you in a hurry for? Just casually say that you are worried about your beloved ([-]) brother?
Shi Xiangyun: You don't spout blood.
Daiyu: I am Pink Lips.
Yingchun: Me too.
Tanchun: metoo (what? Why do you know English? We are so strong, I learned it after listening to Lian’s second brother once)
Jia Amnesty: I'm not popular either. I have a bad heart recently. My son cares too much about me and doesn't let me marry a concubine to do sports. Lack of exercise makes my blood flow poor, so my lips are no longer red.
Jia Lian (slaps him flying): Girls, don't let strange creatures get in here!
Jia Shen (fly away! Prolonged voice, Big Big Wolf version): I——will—come—back—come——!
Big Yu (groaning): Just a word, when it comes to blood mouth, no one is as professional as Baoyu, he is now making rouge!1 years of professional red lips!So this time, the main reason is still Baoyu!Let's play Baoyu together!
After a violent beating.
Baoyu: I really didn’t participate this time, I’m still lying down/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
When Jia Lian saw him, he had only a little courage, so he had nothing to say.He didn't even have the courage to agree, let alone let him open a shop.
As soon as the fifth day passed, Jia Lian asked a few literati to copy the books.
The students of Jia's Academy heard that they could make money by copying books, and they also had a meal of chicken, duck, fish and meat at noon, and they all came to join in the fun.The main reason is to be able to play around in the Rong Mansion, just to have a legitimate reason to save the trouble of following relatives around with parents.Jia Lian did not have high requirements for copying books, as long as the handwriting was handsome, he could pass the test.In order to prevent too many mistakes, each person is only responsible for copying a fixed number of pages, and the page numbers are marked.In the end, everyone's transcriptions were combined and bound into a book.It took a total of seven or eight days for more than twenty students, plus five hired people, to copy out about five hundred copies of the handbook compiled by Jia Lian.
When Jia Lian was checking and accepting the manuscript, Baoyu walked over awkwardly holding a Xuan kiln porcelain box.
Jia Lian saw a few hosta flowers in his porcelain box and asked him what was the matter.
Baoyu hesitated for a long time before she asked Jia Lian to extend her hand shyly.
Jia Lian felt that Baoyu was a bit strange, but in front of everyone, he couldn't directly wipe Baoyu's face, so he extended his hand to him.
Baoyu took out a jade hairpin, poured it into Jia Lian's palm, and dropped a handful of powder.Baoyu put the powder on the back of Jia Lian's hand and gently rolled it away.The powder was spread very evenly, making the skin on the back of Jia Lian's hands more delicate.
Jia Lian's hands tend to get rough seasonally as he touches things in the farmland all the year round.It's winter now, and the hands are clean and slender, which is the time to look good.
Because there is less powder, everyone is far away, and because of Baoyu's body blocking it, they can't see clearly.At first glance, everyone thought that Baoyu was abrupt, put a flower in someone's hand, and then took the opportunity to rub it.
Second Master Lian's hands are indeed too good-looking, but looking at them, they are also very old men.Did Second Master Bao fall asleep?Touching a man is still his second brother, isn't that sick!
"I made this by grinding jasmine seeds and mixing it with spices, and this rouge, which I also made myself." Baoyu said that he took out the small box from his sleeve, and dipped some of it with his fingers to give Jia Lian a try.
Everyone suddenly understood.
Jia Lian hurriedly pulled her hands away.This kid is crazy, try rouge on him?
Baoyu was in a hurry to defend himself, but Jia Lian called Xing'er over and brought up the idea of a rouge shop, and asked Xinger to coordinate with Baoyu to see Xu Qi, the housekeeper.
Baoyu thanked him gratefully, feeling that the burden on his body was suddenly unloaded, and he felt relaxed, so he happily followed Xing'er.
The porcelain box was still there, and Jia Lian asked someone to carry it to the back house.Jia Mu and others are in a lively room, playing cards.Jia Mu won several rounds, and she was happily happy when she suddenly heard the girls cheering up and asking them what was the matter.
Yingchun picked up a hosta flower and sent it over. When Jia Mu heard that it was made by Baoyu, she was very happy, so she tried it, "Sure enough, it is better than the ones on the street. I am old and my face is also picky. Let me give it a try." It doesn't itch."
"It's not bad." Even Jingxin, who has been using the royal offering, fully approves, "But I like this rouge better."
Jingxin sent the small box of rouge up, and Mother Jia smelled it, tried it again, and smiled cheerfully. "It's good, but he's useless at first. Heh, if this matter gets to his father's ears, he will be scolded and beaten."
"Let me tell you, Second Brother Bao is really smart. He didn't waste time hanging out in the inner curtains, and finally learned some talents. This thing is made more delicately than us girls, and it is worth using." Tanchun laughed.
Yingchun and others also agreed.
The old lady was coaxed and praised Baoyu for her talent in this area.
"Could this ability be born?" Jingxin laughed.
Jia's mother was puzzled: "How do you say?"
Jingxin turned her head to look at Mrs. Wang who had been silent over there, and mentioned to her about Baoyu's arrest of Zhou when she was a child.
Mrs. Wang sighed, and said very firmly: "That's right, I was useless when I was young, and I only caught makeup, hairpins and the like, and I was angry with the master for three days."
Jia Mu laughed, "Speaking of it this way, he is really a natural, it's hard to be better than us girls."
"As long as this thing is sold well, I can earn a lot of money. My mother has two cosmetic shops in Beijing, and the monthly income is less than this amount." Jingxin stretched out five fingers.
"It's the most profitable in the shop for a month." Mrs. Xing exclaimed.
"Where there are women, there are makeup fans. For the sake of beauty, would you be reluctant to part with this little money? If you can enshrine it in the palace, you can earn more." Jingxin was thinking.
Shi Xiangyun approached Jia Mu with a half-smile, "Look at sister-in-law, she's caught Qian Qian's eye."
An ordinary girl might feel humiliated when she hears this, but Jingxin doesn't care about it. She has traveled far and wide and has seen a lot, "You haven't married yet, so of course you don't know how expensive Chai Mi is. Got it. Don’t think money is dirty or vulgar. I haven’t seen any noble person who doesn’t spend money and doesn’t eat. People can’t live without money. Even saints still talk about money every day, eager to fill the treasury. "
"Look at your mouth, you will dare to provoke your sister-in-law, you will be at a disadvantage." Yingchun stretched out his hand to pinch Xiangyun's mouth.
Tanchun waited to scare her and make up for it.
Xiangyun hurriedly apologized to Jingxin.
"Don't be rude, talk to your sister-in-law and housekeeper. Only when your wallet is full, will someone be willing to work for you." Jia Mu poked Xiangyun's waist with a smile.
Xiang Yun giggled and dodged while agreeing.
Shi Xiangyun was taken over by Jiamu to live in the mansion two days ago.The first time I saw Lian's second sister-in-law, I felt that she was dignified and kind, so I was very willing to get close to her.But after getting closer, she felt that she was familiar with her, and she didn't care about the consequences when she spoke.
Baoyu respected and feared his second sister-in-law, and secretly told Shi Xiangyun to be more careful when facing the second sister-in-law.Shi Xiangyun didn't believe in this, but felt that she and Lian's second sister-in-law were very close, which Baoyu didn't understand.
After dinner today, Shi Xiangyun happily ran over to pester Jingxin, asking her to help him play chess with Yingchun.
"I can't always beat her. I'm going to gamble tonight. Whoever loses will invite the sisters to have a meal. I don't want to lose. My second sister-in-law is excellent at playing piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting. You have to help me."
Jing Xin hurried back to serve Jia Lian for dinner, upon hearing this, she declined with a smile: "I'll help you, isn't it a shame? Be good, go and play by yourself, my sister-in-law has other things to do."
"It's all over. Don't you have any free time? Then I have to take you there so that you can have a good rest. Don't be exhausted by that little housework."
Jingxin was a little speechless, did Shi Xiangyun really not understand or pretended not to understand?She couldn't tell a maid who hadn't left the court bluntly that she was eager to go back to see her husband.
"Good sister-in-law, please. I have made an agreement with them. If I can ask you to come and help me, I will win if I win."
Jingxin smiled helplessly, why did those eccentric maids agree so much? Didn't they all know that she had to go back to accompany Jia Lian at this time, so naturally they would not agree.
"If you lose, the money for the treat will be on my sister-in-law, okay?" Jingxin patted Shi Xiangyun's hand and smiled kindly.
"That can't be done. If you lose, you won't be happy if you win! Good sister-in-law, you can stay with me. However, if you really have something to do, then that's fine, Xiangyun won't make things difficult for you." After Shi Xiangyun finished speaking, he blinked pitifully Looking at Jingxin with closed eyes, water can be squeezed out of his eyes very quickly, which makes people unbearable.
Jingxin looked at this posture, and if she shouldn't, she was afraid that Shi Xiangyun would be unhappy, so she nodded and agreed to go.On the bright side, Jingxin doesn't care about anything with an unreasonable little girl.But through this incident and the fact that she spoke too casually before, she understood some of Shi Xiangyun's temperament.She wouldn't say anything about the old lady's relatives, even Jia Lian's own sister, she just kept it in her heart and kept the relationship lightly.
Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun were already waiting in the room, when suddenly Shi Xiangyun came in with a laugh, accompanied by Lian's second sister-in-law.The three sisters were stunned for a moment.
Shi Xiangyun smiled triumphantly: "Didn't think of it? I really brought the rescuers here."
"Look, look, just a casual gossip, you really troubled the second sister-in-law to come here. Even if you win, it's a victory without force, and you're ashamed to panic!" Yingchun looked at Jingxin and hinted Shi Xiangyun euphemistically, "Quickly call sister-in-law Go back and rest, you can do it yourself."
"Hey, you can't play tricks. I agreed that if I can move in the second sister-in-law, you have to be convinced if I win you. This time I really saw someone coming. Are you dumbfounded and afraid of losing?" Shi Xiangyun laughed happily Yes, and proudly showed off his close relationship with Lian's second sister-in-law, which they couldn't compare to.
To welcome the spring, look at the spring.
Tanchun smiled and moved his eyeballs, hinting to Yingchun: Look, the second sister-in-law is not unwilling, so don't worry about it.
Yingchun thought about it, so she sat down and started the competition.
Shi Xiangyun was generous, and said to Tanchun and Xichun, "I promise you both will help Second Sister."
"Look, you're so crazy, isn't it just bringing in a powerful rescuer, I don't believe we can't beat us with so many people." Tanchun said with high spirits.
As soon as this remark came out, both sides were full of fighting spirit.After a game of chess, Jing Xin killed them all.Of course the chess player is Shi Xiangyun, but they are all at the mercy of Jingxin.
Sister Sanchun sighed and refused to accept, and wanted to fight again.Shi Xiangyun proposed with great interest: "For the next competition, we need to increase the bet, and the bet should be bigger. How about setting up a good theater troupe and inviting old ladies and wives to watch the play together?"
"How much money does the prank troupe cost? Are you going to empty out our houses?" Yingchun asked with a smile.
"I'm not afraid, I have a sister-in-law, don't I?" Xiangyun turned his head and winked at Jingxin triumphantly.
Jingxin smiled warmly, without saying a word.
Shi Xiangyun assumed that she agreed, and asked Yingchun and the others: "Will you bet?"
"Gamble!" Tanchun said flatly.
Jingxin cleaned her hands, took a leisurely sip of tea, and saw the curtain at the door opened a crack, revealing her head.Mei Guoer's probe was what she had ordered in advance.Jingxin immediately called her in.
Mei Guo'er opened her mouth and said, "Second Master wants to find a pair of jade gourd bottles, so I sent a message to ask grandma."
"It's in the back building. Go inside and go in the third row of shelves. At the end, there's the second red box from the left. Forget it, I'll take you to get it myself." Jingxin stood up and said goodbye to Shi Xiangyun regretfully.
Shi Xiangyun turned into a bitter face in fright, and looked at Jingxin pleadingly.She just owed her money, so she bet hard. If she loses, she won't be able to get the money, so she won't be laughed out of the mouth.
"Second sister-in-law..."
Jing Xin blocked her first: "I want to stay too, but I can't delay your second brother Lian's serious business, don't you think?"
When asked directly like this, Shi Xiangyun of course had to nod his head, and reluctantly looked at Jingxin to go, and his heart began to howl.
Yingchun and the others didn't sympathize with her, she provoked the matter and told her to continue the competition happily.Shi Xiangyun lost against the scalp, and then made excuses to escape first, but at least he didn't let them immediately set a date to invite them.Go back and look through your own private house. It's just after the new year, and the servants around me always want to reward some, and the rest is hardly enough.Originally, she was not welcomed in Shijia, and she had to do her own needlework, not to mention asking her uncle and aunt to give her money.I got a few golden melon seeds when I came to the old lady, and I spent all of them, and I lost even my waistline money in the future.
Shi Xiangyun immediately thought of Baoyu, so he had to borrow it from him.
When Jingxin came back, it was already dark.Jia Lian had already finished his dinner, changed his clothes, and half-lyed on the couch to read a book.
Jingxin breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and sat beside Jia Lian and beat his legs, "Go out for another run, are you tired?"
As soon as Jia Lian grabbed her small wrist, he pulled her into his arms, stooped to kiss him secretly with a smile.After Jingxin took a bath and changed clothes, Fang went to bed and lay face to face with Jia Lian.
Jia Lian covered her with a quilt, touched her cold face, "It's hard to deal with the old lady?"
"No." Jing Xin smiled and grabbed Jia Lian's hand.
Jia Lian was puzzled, "Then why come back so late?"
"Played a game of chess, helping Xiangyun against the second younger sister." Jingxin would not bother Jia Lian with such a trivial matter, and just replied indifferently.
Jia Lian lowered her eyes and didn't say anything, just hugged Jingxin, ran her fingertips across her hair, and then smelled a faint fragrance.
Jia Lian's hand was sliding down, Jingxin blushed and shrank into Jia Lian's arms.
"Are you here?" Jia Lian asked suddenly.
Jingxin looked at him blankly, and suddenly realized that Jia Lian was talking about sunflower water, counting the days, it really is these days.
"No—" Jingxin's heart was pounded heavily, "Two days ago, my mother-in-law asked me if I should hire a doctor. At that time, I was busy with Chinese New Year. I thought I was just tired and the date was not accurate."
"Just look at it." Jia Lian said lightly, but the corner of his mouth was filled with a smile that couldn't be suppressed.
When Jingxin thinks that she will have a child, she is very happy and excited. She really wishes to ask the doctor to confirm it now.She has been looking forward to this child for a long time.
"Second master likes boys or girls?" Jingxin asked.
"I like you." Jia Lian smiled.
Jingxin blinked playfully, "What a clever answer, I don't even know what to say."
"I told you earlier, I would like it if you were not born." Jia Lian scratched the bridge of her nose and told her to go to sleep.If you are really pregnant, you need to have a regular schedule to treat your child well.
Jing Xin was so excited that she couldn't sleep, probably because she was worried about the result of the pulse diagnosis tomorrow.Still, he closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.Just when she realized that she couldn't fall asleep, she heard someone calling her the zodiac sheep, the voice was low and pleasant to hear.
Jingxin snickered for a while, enjoying listening to Jia Lian's voice, and finally fell asleep at some point.
The next day when I checked the pulse, the old doctor twirled his beard and nodded happily.
Really good news!
Before the doctor could return, Jia Lian had already put down his words and offered the reward.
The old doctor is very thankful.
But Jing Xin was worried, and she wept with joy until the doctor told her that she was really pregnant, and happily took Jia Lian's hand.
When the happy news reached Jia Mu, it was naturally a good meal.Because Jia's mother had always believed that Jia Lian was sick and could not give birth to a child, she felt that the child was hard-won and a gift from God.This is a miracle, the reward must be doubled.
This incident aroused the envy of Mrs. Wang, who had just recovered, and Jia Zheng was even more jealous, needless to say.But this couple can do nothing but be jealous.Later, Mrs. Wang still wanted to wrap up a congratulatory gift, and came to take a closer look at Jingxin on behalf of the second room, and she had done everything she said on her face.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang are now living with their tails between their legs, and they absolutely dare not offend Jia Lian, especially Jing Xin.Every time Mrs. Wang sees her, she thinks of the stupid things Jia Zheng did to insult her family's reputation, and her heart trembles every time.So even if Mrs. Wang saw Jingxin, she couldn't chat for a few words, so she ran away quickly.After leaving, Mrs. Wang still secretly felt angry for a while, before she could go back to her remote mansion in a sedan chair and continue to suffer.
As for Jia Amnesty, he was overjoyed when he got the good news, and his thoughts were similar to Jia's mother.But he didn't feel that his son was lucky, but that his daughter-in-law was up to date.If it were someone else, they would definitely not have the stamina of a daughter-in-law. They would have been crying and looking for death and life. Can they still conceive?
So Jia Amnesty praised Jingxin severely this time.He spent all the money from the scriptures he published some time ago, bottles and cans, plus a few ancient fans he had saved before, and gave them to Jingxin to congratulate him.
But for his son, Jia Amnesty felt he had to hurry up.Regarding infertility, he had consulted a doctor a long time ago, and if he was lucky, there would still be, there was no absolute.It is good luck that Jingxin can get pregnant this time.But it might not be the case next time, so we still have to hurry up and treat Jia Lian.Ever since he knew that Jia Lian was unlikely to have children, Jia Amnesty had never expected that he would be able to have a full house of children and grandchildren.
That's how people are, when they find what they lack, they want what they want.
Jia Amnesty also told Mrs. Xing not to be idle these days, and to spend more time in the Buddhist hall and pray more if she has nothing to do, so that her eldest daughter-in-law would best have a fat boy in one child.At least even if Jia Lian is useless, he can guarantee that their big house will have successors.
On the third day, Jia Amnesty took a strange doctor surnamed Zhang whom he had found by jumping up and down with all his strength, to see Jia Lian.
Jia Amnesty rushed straight to Jia Lian's study: "Hurry up, hurry up, follow me to see the doctor."
Jia Lian ignored him and continued to write with downcast eyes.
"Didn't you hear me? Follow me to see the doctor. I spent a lot of effort and paid a lot of money to hire that doctor. He will be gone after passing this village." Jia She said anxiously.
Jia Lian was puzzled, "I'm not sick, why should I see a doctor?"
"You brat, why are you not sick? You said it yourself, you can't do it!" Jia Amnesty scolded while blowing his beard.
"When? What were the original words?"
"It's just..." Jia She scratched his chin and thought about it for a while, "The time you said the problem was with you."
"I said, 'Come to me if you have any problems', it's you who come to me with problems, not me." Jia Lian corrected.
Jia Amnesty was embarrassed, his face turned blue, pale, and finally turned red, "You kid playing me? Are you not sick at all? Then you—"
Jia Amnesty wanted to blame Jia Lian, since he had misunderstood, he should have made it clear earlier.But thinking about it carefully, I don't seem to have brought up the matter with Jia Lian. It seems that this matter is really Jia Lian's fault.
"You bastard, your grandma and I are worrying in vain if you call me!" Jia She jumped angrily, in fact, he jumped angrily because of his idiot behavior.
"I don't know. If father is not willing, then let's confront our ancestors?" Jia Lian asked with a smile, as if he really didn't know about Jia Amnesty's misunderstanding.
"It's over, it's over, the old lady has been worrying for so many days, if I really tell him it's my fault, she will scold me to death." Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty quickly changed his attitude, with a flattering smile on his face, Pull Jia Lian aside and talk carefully.
"My dear son, this is father's fault."
"Forget?" Jia Lian raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"Yes, it's my father's fault. But the old lady is really hard to explain. Can you hide it for your father and admit the disease first. After a while, you will say that you saw the doctor and took the medicine, and the disease disappeared. Okay, how about it?"
"Hmm..." Jia Lian gave Jia She an appetite for a long time, and suddenly said flatly, "It's not for my benefit, I don't want to agree."
"You dare to threaten your father! Forget it, what benefits do you want?" Jia Amnesty retreated.
"No more concubines, no more roommates, you can drink, you can't get too drunk, you can collect fans, you can't bully, buy and sell by force. From now on, you can't do anything unkind or unrighteous, which violates the scope of normal morality thing."
Jia She suddenly petrified, his face was black and pitch black.
Jia Amnesty gritted his teeth angrily, "Are you negotiating terms, one for so many, thanks to the fact that you still open a shop to do business, is your terms fair?"
"It's especially fair to those who may be bullied by you." Jia Lian smiled at Jia She with a good temper.Recently, he heard that there is an additional teacher in the capital, surnamed Jia.In view of the inertia of the original book, Jia Lian blocked the way of Jia Amnesty first, lest if he didn't pay attention that day, the stone nerd would jump out and be bullied to death by Jia Amnesty.
Jia Amnesty said firmly, "I don't agree."
"Meiguoer, take those two boxes of tribute tea and go to see the old lady!" Jia Lian suddenly shouted.
"Don't! I agree, why don't you agree?" My son was really sure, fast, and merciless when he did things.Jia Amnesty knows Jia Lian too well, he is really capable of doing it, so it's better... just give in for now.
……
In the past two days, Shi Xiangyun was really enthusiastic about Jingxin's pregnancy.She thought she had a good relationship with Lian's second sister-in-law, and she should be obliged to come and accompany her every day, so she urged Sister Sanchun to come over and chat with Jingxin together.
When a woman is pregnant, she is prone to fatigue and quietness, especially when her appetite is poor in the early stages of pregnancy, and she is even more tired of dealing with others.When these sister-in-laws came to see her, Jing Xin dared not neglect her, she naturally had to take care of her every time she came.
Mother Jia also acted as girls out of kindness to relieve her sister-in-law's boredom and was very supportive.
But Jia Lian couldn't bear this, especially after hearing from Feng'er that Shi Xiangyun was very noisy every time he brought people over.He directly discussed with Mrs. Xing, and after the fifteenth day, he asked Yingchun to wait for a few to go to class.
Although it was a little early, Mrs. Xing had always supported Jia Lian, and she nodded in agreement.Especially when Jia Lian presented a pair of jade bracelets as a 'bribe', Mrs. Xing paid more attention to this matter and personally supervised it.
In view of the fact that there is a mindless guest at home.In order to improve the girls' emotional intelligence in dealing with affairs in the future, Jia Lian sent his mother-in-law to invite two gentlemen for the girls.One is a female teacher who has read poetry and books, and the other is an old nanny who has experienced many things in the world.Connotation and self-cultivation are important, but you also need to know a little bit about the world, at least know how to stay away from bad people in the future.Jia Lian also specially asked Mrs. Xing to tell the gentlemen to leave homework for Shi Xiangyun, on the one hand to promote her study, and on the other hand to save her from harassing Jingxin when she has time.
When Jia Min heard about the women's school, she thought this method was very good, and she wanted to hire two stalwarts for Daiyu.Mother Jia asked her to let Daiyu come to Rongfu to attend classes. Anyway, the two families are very close, and it happened that she also wanted Daiyu to live here for a while.
So Daiyu joined the girls' school.
For the first few days, everything was peaceful.Later, for some reason, Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun started arguing.And in the middle, there is absolutely no mixing of Baoyu.Baoyu has been very busy recently, and has been researching new rouge for his shop.
The author has something to say:
--------------------------------------- No Responsibility Small Theater -------- ------------------------------
Baoyu: (screaming) This time the girls are arguing, but it's none of my business.
Baochai (raising hands enthusiastically): It has nothing to do with me, I didn’t participate
Big Fish (Innocent): You haven’t had much acting roles recently, what have you been doing?
Baochai (angry): It's not because of you, the author, where did you write about me!I'm the second heroine.
Big Fish: (⊙o⊙) Terrible, when it is agreed to follow along, how about being gentle and compliant?
Baochai: (slams down angrily) I'm not Rejoice, there's no need to be submissive!Add some drama to me!strongly demand!
The big fish rolled away, round, round, round.
Baochai:……
-------
Take the first sentence of Baoyu's words.
Daiyu: haunted
Shi Xiangyun: Who are you talking about?
Daiyu: What are you in a hurry for? Just casually say that you are worried about your beloved ([-]) brother?
Shi Xiangyun: You don't spout blood.
Daiyu: I am Pink Lips.
Yingchun: Me too.
Tanchun: metoo (what? Why do you know English? We are so strong, I learned it after listening to Lian’s second brother once)
Jia Amnesty: I'm not popular either. I have a bad heart recently. My son cares too much about me and doesn't let me marry a concubine to do sports. Lack of exercise makes my blood flow poor, so my lips are no longer red.
Jia Lian (slaps him flying): Girls, don't let strange creatures get in here!
Jia Shen (fly away! Prolonged voice, Big Big Wolf version): I——will—come—back—come——!
Big Yu (groaning): Just a word, when it comes to blood mouth, no one is as professional as Baoyu, he is now making rouge!1 years of professional red lips!So this time, the main reason is still Baoyu!Let's play Baoyu together!
After a violent beating.
Baoyu: I really didn’t participate this time, I’m still lying down/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
