Chapter 208: Lost Opportunity
Since I couldn't get out, I simply went to Baoyu's Yihong Courtyard, and before I entered the door, I heard the noise and excitement inside that couldn't be stopped, the door was hidden, and no one was watching, so I simply pushed the door and went in.
I saw that inside, a few older maids, Raider, Musk Yue, Qiuwen, and Bi Zhen were playing cards and eating melon seeds around the edge of the table, and several little maids such as Shen'er, Jiahui, Zhang'er, and Chunyan were playing hide and seek in the courtyard, and the noisy laughter came from their mouths, and there were a few people who had to talk everywhere sporadically.
Jia Lu cautiously jumped over a pile of melon peel husks, and shook his head secretly at the chaos in this Yihong courtyard, he had never seen such a chaotic courtyard, even if he treated people leniently, and he was also well-behaved.
When the attacker saw Jia Lu coming, he hurriedly greeted him, cleaned up a clean stool, and invited Jia Lu to come and sit down, saying,
"It's rare to see the four girls come to our yard, quick, please sit, the little girls in our yard are a little messy, and please take care of the four girls more. ”
Jia Lu shook her head, sat down, and asked, "I don't know where Brother Bao went?"
The attacker replied, "I don't know, I went out in the morning, I'm afraid it doesn't matter which house I went to play, what is the matter with the four girls looking for him?"
As he spoke, he brought a plate of fruit and said, "Girl, come and eat some fruit." ”
Jia Lu excused herself and asked her to sit down, "I'm just casually strolling, I didn't go out of my way to find him, Sister Raider, you sit and let's talk." ”
The attacker sat down as well.
Jia Lu pointed to the girls in the yard and asked, "It's always been like this in your yard?"
The attacker glanced at it and said with a smile, "Baoyu, that girl doesn't know, she is the most accustomed to people, with him, there is no time to stop in this house." ”
"You don't care about that?"
The attacker shook his head helplessly, and said, "If we restrain them, Baoyu will be unhappy, and if Baoyu is unhappy, it is our fault, and it is up to them!"
"Hmph! Is it Baoyu who is stopping her or someone pretending to be a good person and not wanting to care, someone knows it in their hearts!" A delicate and charming girl walked in front of her, with willow eyebrows, shaved shoulders, and a water snake waist, even in the Yihong Courtyard where flowers are in full bloom, it is the only one, plus this spiky temperament, this is Qingwen.
Seeing Jia Lu sitting, Qingwen casually asked for peace and said, "The fourth girl is free, why do you have to take care of our yard?"
As soon as Jia Lu saw her speak, she first sarcastically attacked people, and then said herself, and only said two words, and the hatred value was full.
The attacker was good-tempered, pulled her, and said, "The fourth girl is just hanging out, let's talk for a while." ”
It's hot, Qingwen may have just rested, her sideburns are still scattered, she picked up the tea bowl on the table and didn't know who it was, and poured it up with her head raised in two of three, she was an extremely charming woman, but there was an indescribable freedom in this gesture, Jia Lu was stunned for a while, and shouted loudly,
"Prepare your pen and ink!"
The attacker was accustomed to serving, so he went into the house to find it after listening to the instructions, and after a while, he packed up a set of Baoyu's commonly used painting tools.
Jia Lu tried it, it was not as good as his usual paints, etc., and the colors were not complete, but he could still use it, put the drawing paper away, dipped it in ink, and drew with a pen.
The girls who were originally playing in the yard saw the strangeness and gathered around, and they had always heard that the four girls painting was a must, and they had never seen it!
Half an hour later, Jia Lu put down the pen, rubbed her sore wrist, looked at the beauty in the painting and smiled with satisfaction, but listened to the exclamations and discussions around her.
"It's so well drawn!"
"That's it, it's so beautiful, I don't know if the fourth girl can wait to paint one for me!"
"You think beautifully, and I don't look at you, can you compare with Sister Qingwen?"
"That's right! The fourth girl is not a portrait master on the street!"
......
In the midst of this discussion, a slender and thin hand stretched out, wanting to touch the beauty in the painting, but was grabbed by Qingwen and scolded,
"Your claws are under-pumped, and the words of the fourth girl are also what you can touch? Are there any rules, see if I don't break your claws, see if it dares to reach out?"
As she spoke, she was about to pull out the golden hairpin on her bun to poke people, and the girl who reached out was Xiaohong, she shrank her hand and said,
"The four girls didn't speak, but you said, who is out of order, the four girls painted you, but the painting is not yours, what are you here to be the master?"
Qingwen was furious when she heard this, "Okay, you little hoof! and dare to talk back!" said that she was about to hit her.
Seeing that the attacker was not good, he quickly stopped it, and said, "Qingwen, you also stop, the fourth girl is still there, even if you want to teach the girl a lesson, you can't do it in front of the fourth girl!"
It's a pity that Qingwen has a tantrum where can she manage it, or scolding and scolding him to beat him, and the attacker is clumsy and doesn't know what to do, at this time, it was Musk Yue who came forward and scolded Xiaohong first.
"You're not a good little girl, you have to look at the painting, what to do, and another Sister Qingwen is your sister, you are good, dare to contradict her, no matter whether she is good or not, she has this right to discipline you, where is your turn to complain, come and apologize to your Sister Qingwen!" said and pulled her ears over.
He said to Qingwen again, "Sister Qingwen also retracted her temper a little, the fourth girl is still there, how can she teach people in front of her master, there is no such rule!
At this time, Jia Lu also helped to say two sentences, "Horizontal and vertical is not a big deal, just stop for a while!"
I don't know if Qingwen and Xiaohong felt that Musk Yue's words made some sense, or if Jia Lu opened her mouth, and the two stopped.
Jia Lu saw that Qingwen really liked this painting, so she took the initiative to give her the painting, and with a short hand, Qingwen accepted the painting, and in the face of Jia Lu, even her temper was much more restrained.
Jia Lu glanced at Xiaohong and felt very familiar, so she asked, "I don't know who this sister is?" There are more than a dozen girls in Baoyu's yard, and Jia Lu doesn't come here often, and there are many girls who don't recognize them.
The attacker introduced on the side, "Her original name was Lin Hongyu, but this jade character recalls the names of Baoyu and Miss Lin, so they all call her Xiaohong." ”
Jia Lu thought for a while and said, "Isn't it that you are the daughter of Lin Zhixiao's housekeeper?"
Xiaohong nodded, "Exactly, how did the girl know?"
"Then why aren't you from Sister Feng?" Jia Lu spat out.
Xiaohong glanced at her suspiciously, and said, "The slave maid has always been on an errand in the courtyard of Second Master Bao, and has never been to Second Grandma Lian. ”
This is not allowed, this Xiaohong seems to be a pair with Jia Yun, and then did Wang Xifeng a small favor after the Dicuiting incident, Wang Xifeng saw that she was articulate and clever, so he asked people to come over.
Jia Lu suddenly realized that she was also there at that time, this Xiaohong had always sued Sister Bao, and Sister Bao was Sister Feng's cousin no matter what, so she lost the opportunity.
