145 Tea Ceremony
Lin Jinlou turned around and went out, only to see Lin Dongya, Lin Dongxiu, and Lin Dongqi walking into the hall from outside the door, Lin Jinting fell behind, and said lazily: "Big brother is a busy man, didn't you see that you were changing your clothes and going out, do you still want to eat here?" I saw that I had eaten this meal, so I quickly invited the beauty out to let the master see, what a baby, cover it so tightly. ”
Lin Dongya found a chair to sit on, and said: "Yes, our sister just said that what kind of immortal made the eldest brother confused, and deliberately brought it in from outside the house, it has been two days, and even the old lady didn't let me take a look." As he spoke, he looked at Lin Dongxiu.
Lin Jinlou said with a smile: "I also said that why is it so neat today, everyone holding hands and going to the Zhichun Pavilion to look at me, and said that you have all grown up, you know the righteousness of friendship and filial piety, it turned out that you came here to fight the autumn breeze." ”
Lin Jinting sat down on the Arhat bed, leaned on the concubine-colored chrysanthemum-patterned phoenix tail dark flower pillow, and said: "It's still playing the autumn wind, they all came in, and they didn't even pour the bowl of water." ”
Shuran had already brought the tea to the kang table on Luohan's bed, and said with a smile: "Third master, please drink this cup." ”
Lin Jinting said: "It's still Sister Shuran who knows that it hurts." It's not this year's new tea, and I won't drink it. ”
Lin Jinlou slapped Lin Jinting on the back of the head and said, "You monkey, you are all rewarded with tea, and you are still picky." ”
Lin Jinting touched his head and shouted: "Aren't I worried about you, brother, when I was a younger brother, I was afraid that you would be uncomfortable, and let Su Ju stew a soup to relieve hangover." As he spoke, he pointed to the little maid and put the food box on the table.
Lin Jinlou said: "Wait for your decanting soup and daylily to be cold." ”
Lin Jinting said in a long voice: "Yes, you have your own beautiful lady to wash your hands and make soup." Leaned over to Lin Jinlou's side, lowered his voice and said, "Baba came back last night just for her, right?" I'm still wondering, as usual, brother, you have already rested in the Ji Pavilion, Miss Ruixian looked at you left and right for a long time, and her big eyes were about to drip water, you didn't care, and hurriedly packed up, and didn't even sit in the carriage. Tsk, what kind of baby is hidden at home and makes you come back in a hurry? Could it be more handsome than Ruixian? ”
Lin Jinlou squinted at Lin Jinting and said, "What? Look at the Ruixian? You have to be courageous, not afraid of the family law of the elders, how about your brother combing her with silver for you? ”
Lin Jinting was a little moved, and after thinking about it for a while, he waved his hand again and again: "Forget it, now I don't have an official position, the old man has already looked at me unpleasantly, just go out for a stroll and have some fun, if I really stay overnight, my grandfather knows that he has to break my legs." ”
While the two were chattering, Lin Dongqi knocked on the lacquer with a folding fan and said with a smile: "What are you two whispering, what kind of business is it to hang our sisters here." ”
Lin Jinlou said: "Good sister, if my brother remembers correctly, you will get married at the end of this month?" If you don't obediently embroider a dowry in the house, but also come here to join in the fun, is it possible that you still want your brother to add a dowry to you? ”
Lin Dongqi's face turned red, and he said, "There is no serious word in my mouth, I am here to see my new sister-in-law." ”
Lin Dongxiu picked up a piece of honey apricot from the black lacquer luodian eight treasure box, put it in his mouth and said, "Okay, don't sell it, big brother invite the beauty out." ”
Lin Jinlou raised his head and gestured towards Shuran. Shuran nodded slightly, and then went to the east room to call Xianglan, and when he entered, he saw that Xianglan was still lying on the windowsill, so he stepped forward and said, "Miss Xianglan, change into the clothes of the guests, several young ladies are waiting to see you." ”
Just now, the people outside spoke, and Xianglan heard it clearly in the second room, and she was so annoyed that she couldn't help frowning.
Shuran hurriedly persuaded: "Go out, but show your face." ”
Chunling also persuaded on the side: "I have to give face to the uncle on this occasion, so let's go, ah." ”
Xianglan couldn't, so she had to change into the clothes of the guest and come out. Lin Jinlou and others were laughing outside, and suddenly saw a beautiful woman slowly walking out of it, wearing a silver-red crepe jacket, a plain white Hangzhou silk painting drag skirt, a simple bun on her head, only three exquisite gold silk phoenix hairpins, no jewelry next to her, hanging low powder, and acting elegantly, as if she had just walked down from the painting, Ying Ying bowed and said, "I have seen you." ”
Lin Jinting was a little stunned, his body unconsciously leaned forward, stretched his neck and said, "This is ...... This is ......" looked up and down several times, suddenly came back to his senses, glanced at Lin Jinlou, and said in his heart: "I haven't seen my face yet, just saying that this figure and temperament are stronger than Rui Xian, I don't know how many mountains, more than the women he has seen, look at the fairy, and the strange way is that the eldest brother, who is used to seeing rouge, is also fascinated, and he should not be raised in the outer room, so he has to get people into the house." The third sister and the fourth sister asked me to come, but I didn't want to, but fortunately, I wouldn't have seen the top of my brother's heart. Seeing that Xianglan lowered her head and was about to retreat, she hurriedly smiled: "This is the new sister-in-law?" Yo, hurry up, everyone is out, should we give us a few cups of tea? ”
Lin Dongxiu said with a thorn in his words: "That is, we should always give us a few teas, and leave in a hurry, why don't you look down on a few of us?" ”
Xianglan raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Lin Jinlou, Lin Jinlou had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said to Xianglan: "In this case, you can serve tea and salute it." ”
Chunling hurriedly took out a set of tea sets with frozen banana leaves, with more than 20 small cups, went through them with hot water, brewed tea with book dyeing, put them on the tray, and handed them to Xianglan. Xianglan said secretly: "It's just a play on the stage." He closed his eyes and gave it to Lin Dongqi, who was the oldest.
Lin Dongqi took it with a smile, tilted his head to look at Xianglan's face, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and laughed a few times, pulled Shuran next to him and whispered a few words, Shuran also said something with a smile, and both of them covered their mouths.
Xianglan went to pay tribute to Lin Jinting again, Lin Jinting took the tea, looked left and right at Xianglan, touched her chin and said, "What is the name of the new sister-in-law?" Have I ever seen you? How do you feel ...... Somewhat familiar? ”
Xianglan blushed, bit her lip and dodged, Lin Jinlou kicked Lin Jinting's calf and said, "Put away your thief's eyebrows, and when you meet a handsome person, you will say that you have seen it, and you won't see whose person this is." ”
Lin Jinting also blushed, covered his legs and rolled his eyes, "No, it's really not...... I really look a little ...... Familiar. ”
Xianglan just greeted Lin Dongya, Lin Dongyan glanced at Xianglan, held the teacup and smiled: "Of course the third brother is familiar, you don't know who she is?" She, it turned out to be a slave of our Lin family, and later climbed up to Gao Zhi'er and went to the Song family, at that time she was so dignified and majestic that I and my fourth sister didn't dare to speak. ”
"How can the third sister use the word 'scared', at that time, Brother Yifei's gentle and petty appearance towards her was really a wonderful joke about Lang's concubine, Brother Yifei was willing to let her fool, what are the two of us 'scared', it's really not worth it to worry so much." Lin Dongxiu swallowed melon seeds, and took the words with a smile, "I heard that as soon as she went, Fangsi, who had served Yifei's brother, hanged herself, and died. ”
The room was silent, and even the sound of needles hitting the ground could be heard.
It turned out that Lin Dongya and Lin Dongxiu heard the maids chewing their tongues, saying that there was a newcomer in Lin Jinlou's house, a man named Xianglan, who was originally a maid in the house, and had asked Zhao Yuechan to go out. When their sisters heard this, how could they not understand, because they had suffered a big loss in the hands of Xianglan, and they were hating in their hearts, so they called Lin Dongqi and Lin Jinting, saying that they were the newcomers who came to see Lin Jinlou, but in fact, they came to find Xianglan and avenge the arrow.
Lin Dongqi dragged Lin Dongxiu, stuffed a dried apricot into her mouth and said, "You had a nightmare last night, full of nonsense, eat a sweet one to block your mouth." ”
Lin Jinlou still had a smile on his face, and casually picked up the tea bowl, blew it, and took a sip, but the green tendons on his forehead were faintly tense.
Xianglan's face turned pale, there was no expression at all, and brought the tea to Lin Dongxiu, Lin Dongxiu glanced at Lin Jinlou, saw that his face was not different, and his courage became stronger and stronger, raised his eyebrows, took the tea, and sneered: "The Lin family can let you drill the camp back, but you really have a means." ”
Lin Jinting was dumbfounded, half of the tea in his hand was spilled, he pointed to Xianglan, looked at Lin Jinlou and said, "She, she is Yifei...... Why is she here with you? ”
Lin Jinting is very familiar with the name "Xianglan", at first Song Ke begged him to ask Lin Jinlou for this person, but was blocked by Lin Jinlou with a word, and later heard that Xianglan was kicked out by Zhao Yuechan, and somehow went to Song's house. He and Song Ke are good friends, often in and out of the Song Mansion, and have seen Xianglan a few times, but Xianglan always avoids it. Because he knew that her identity was different from others, Lin Jinting was not easy to look at carefully, so he never saw the truth. In the end, he heard that Xianglan was Song Ke in distress and had to marry Zheng Jingxian as his wife. Song Ke ate too much wine, and repeatedly said how Xianglan was smart and gentle, dignified and self-loving, and determined not to be a concubine, how reluctant he was in his heart, and hugged Lin Jinting and cried bitterly after speaking...... It's just that it's not been a few months since this happened, how did this woman named Xianglan become the concubine of his eldest brother Lin Jinlou Xinna?
Lin Dongxiu laughed out loud and said, "You just shouted 'new sister-in-law' and 'new sister-in-law' for a long time, I don't know why she is here?" Third brother, are you sleepy? ”
Lin Jinting opened his mouth wide and stammered, "This, this...... Can't stop? ”
Lin Dongya sneered: "Why can't you? Brother Yifei married the daughter of the Xianguo family, and when the two are compared, they can naturally distinguish which one is the ...... of the foxy nightmare."
Before the words fell, Lin Dongqi coughed, glared at Aya and Xiu fiercely and said, "Third sister, fourth sister, people have also seen it, let's go back." The heart said: "The third sister is still a tendon, and now Xianglan is the eldest brother's room, saying that she is a foxy man, isn't she slapping the eldest brother's face, and the fourth sister is also a little poisonous when she speaks today, and she has forgotten what the temper of the eldest brother is." ”
Unexpectedly, the two of them sat still. RS
