Before Xue Baochai could take off the golden lock around his neck, Jia Mu came out, Jia Baoyu's request to see the golden lock was so useless, Jia Jiu also wanted to open his mouth and beg to form a team to watch, but he had to give up under the stern eyes of Jia Mu and Shi Xiangyun, the old and the young.
Mother Jia also has a fire burning in her heart.
That's right, Jia's mother likes Xue Baochai, but she doesn't have to be Xue Baochai, just like the Xue family's previous script of riding a donkey to find a donkey, Jia's mother also has the same idea. The Xue family is rich, but the Xue family is not only a girl Xue Baochai, the Xue family's family business will be Xue Pan's in the future, that is, Xue Baochai is extremely good and can take care of people, and can serve Jia Baoyu properly, but if this thing changes, what if there will be a more suitable famous lady in the future?
The girl of the Xue family looks dignified, but in the end, she is the granddaughter of the Wang family, and she is really insignificant in this major matter. Jia Mu's heart thought so.
I don't blame Xue Baochai for wearing this golden lock now, and I don't blame Xue Baochai for daring to show off here in Jiamu. Just imagine, this marriage event was originally the words of the parents' order matchmaker, in the original book, Mrs. Wang was in charge of the Rongguo Mansion unjustly and stunned the heads of the Xue family's mother and daughter, and now Jia's mother has come forward, in the eyes of the Xue family's mother and daughter, isn't this marriage already proper? Jia's mother's status and influence in the Jia family, their family is really in their eyes. didn't know that his actions really lowered Jia's mother's evaluation of Xue Baochai, and I don't know if they would regret their mistakes when they learned that the changes in the future would start from this matter.
Although Jia Mu didn't like it, she didn't show it on her face, but Shi Xiangyun didn't have this good face.
Relying on Jia's mother's liking, Shi Xiangyun threw herself into Jia's mother's arms as soon as possible and said, "Old lady, you don't care about the second sister." The second sister's neck is empty, there is nothing, there are only a few pieces of jewelry on her head, if it weren't for the two bracelets on her hand, I'm afraid that even the sisters around the old lady are not as good. Old lady, isn't the second sister going to participate in the flower party? Didn't the Zhang family also invite the second sister to participate in the hairpin party? The second sister just went like this, wouldn't it be inappropriate? ”
Jia Mu was stunned, but Jia Jiu spoke first: "Sister Yun, I'm still young, and I don't need so much jewelry." ”
Jia Mu said: "Yun girl didn't say it, I forgot about it." Also, the two girls' original grandmothers and girls are not good things, and the two girls' original jewelry are stolen by them. Later, the second girl came back, and lay in the house for a few days, and when she was a little better, she began to serve her mother and take care of her younger brother, but she had no time to take care of this. That's it, it's too late to make jewelry now. Mandarin duck, mandarin duck, you go to find it yourself, there is such a big magpie Dengmei red sandalwood box in the back, I remember that there is jewelry in it that the second girl can call at this age. ”
The mandarin duck immediately took people with him. After a while, I really brought a small box of one foot square, divided into five layers, each layer is a complete set of hairpin ring jewelry.
Jia Mu said: "It's not this. This was worn by your aunt when she was young, and the old woman kept it, and now she gives it to you. ”
Jia Jiu said: "The old lady feels sorry for her granddaughter, and her granddaughter understands. It's just that not long after my aunt went, my granddaughter wore gold and silver, which was unreasonable. The old lady has always remembered this jewelry, which shows that it means a lot to the old lady and her aunt. ”
Jia Mu sighed and said, "You can take it." It also saves me from seeing things and thinking about people, and I don't have to provoke tears. ”
Jia Jiu secretly looked at Jia's mother, and saw that Jia's mother seemed unwilling to say more, so she had to let go of Jia Cong, and thanked Jia's mother cautiously, and then took the small box and handed it to Jinxiu.
Jia Cong was originally held in his sister's arms, but he was suddenly put aside by his sister, and he was not happy, just right, Xichun's grandmother was standing on the side with Xichun in her arms, and he called at Xichun, and kept waving his little hands.
Xichun was staring around with a pair of round eyes, and when he heard Jia Cong's call, he also turned his head and stared at Jia Cong. Seeing this, Xichun's grandmother put Xichun by Jia Cong's side, so that the two brothers and sisters could get close. Jia Cong saw that there was a child as old as himself beside him, and happily leaned over and stretched out his little hand to grab Xichun's hand.
Xichun looked at Jia Cong and then looked at his own hand, looked at Jia Cong and looked at his own hand, and suddenly waved his hand and slapped it on Jia Cong's arm fiercely. Jia Cong was in pain and cried all of a sudden, and Xichun also cried loudly, crying while drilling into his grandmother's arms.
At this moment, Jia Jiu couldn't care about Xue Baochai's golden lock, he and his grandmother were busy coaxing these two dolls, but they put Xue Baochai's matter aside. He had thought that the idea would soon pass. But in fact, when Jia Jiu didn't know it, this rumor was already flying all over the sky. And Jia Jiu will know about this, or Shi Xiangyun told him.
When Shi Xiangyun came in the past, he was very repulsive to Jia Jiu's predecessor, but later Jia Jiu came, first, he was busy, and secondly, he also felt that Shi Xiangyun was not good to him, and he had no interest in pleasing this spoiled little girl who often used words to squeeze him, so the friendship between the two stopped there. Shi Xiangyun will come to his house, and Jia Jiu is also very strange.
It was Shi Xiangyun, and the first thing he said when he saw Jia Jiu was: "The second sister's house is so exquisite, but when she returned to her parents, it was very different from when she was in the old lady's house." ”
Shi Xiangyun is a frequent visitor to Jia's house, and whenever he comes to Jia's house, he either lives in the warm pavilion with Jia's mother, or sleeps on the big bed outside the bisha cupboard. In contrast, the three sisters of the Jia family can only live in the backyard. The house is not as tall and magnificent as Jia's mother's main house, and the furnishings inside are ordinary. Especially Jia Jiu's predecessor, such a cowardly character, he couldn't control the minions below at all, and the things in this house were naturally stolen by these minions to gamble and eat and drink, and over time, the elders didn't bother to give him extra things. Therefore, among the three sisters of the Jia family at that time, the only girl in this big house had the most shabby house, and even Mrs. Xing also ate a lot of hanging. Mrs. Xing was angry, and the more unwilling she was to pay attention to this cheap daughter who would only drag him down, a vicious circle, and Jia Jiu's predecessor's life became more and more difficult.
But now that Jia Jiu is here, Jia Yu sees that his daughter is going to sue for him and roll the nail board, where is he not distressed. He only has such a daughter, which is rare, and he is even more energetic to move things to his daughter's house. Back then, Jia Yu also thought about having a smart and clever daughter with the Zhang family, and also secretly saved good things for his future daughter. Unfortunately, this qiē disappeared with Zhang's death. Now that Jia Jiu is back, for Jia Yu, not only does he have a caring daughter, but it also means that his dream back then is no longer the moon in the mirror.
Therefore, in Jia Jiu's room, the authentic works of Wang Youjun hanging in the hall, the large ornaments on the incense table, and the tea set that Jia Jiu used to entertain guests, it was really eye-catching in Shi Xiangyun's eyes.
Jia Jiu motioned to Jinxiu to take care of Jia Cong who was sleeping instead of him, and he came over to invite Shi Xiangyun to speak in the suite: "Sister Yun, what's wrong?" It seems that somewhere got angry and deliberately asked me to get angry. ”
Shi Xiangyun smiled: "Oh, my second sister, why do you just close your earbuds and listen?" Doesn't my sister know that rumors are already flying outside. If one is not good, my sister will also be implicated and her reputation will be ruined. ”
Jia Jiu said: "Sister Yun, what are you talking about, I don't understand. These days, I'm honest. ”
Shi Xiangyun waved his hand and said, "It's not my sister, it's that sister Bao." ”
"Sister Bao? What happened to him? ”
Shi Xiangyun said: "What else can I do?" Isn't that it? With his golden lock dangling around, it doesn't mean that his golden lock must have jade to match, who doesn't know that Baoyu is the jade in the womb. ”
Jia Jiu said: "Maybe my sister is mistaken. Children in families like ours will lose gold and jade. That's just how it goes. ”
Shi Xiangyun said angrily: "Second sister still said it." But the people below said that the words engraved on his piece of gold were exactly the same as Baoyu's jade. Everyone says it's a good relationship......"
Jia Jiu smiled: "This auspicious word, it turns out to be a set, my sister is even angry about this, where can she be angry?" ”
Shi Xiangyun glared at a pair of eyes and said, "Then do you also approve of Baoyu marrying that Xue Baochai?" ”
Jia Jiu saw that Shi Xiangyun had broken it, and immediately signaled to the girls, and waited for the girls in the house to retreat outside, before listening to him: "I know what my sister means." My sister and Baoyu are childhood sweethearts, and they are big together in swaddling clothes, and now there is a Xue Baochai coldly, her appearance is good, and she likes Baoyu, so that Baoyu gives up her sister and revolves around him every day, and it is reasonable for her sister to feel uncomfortable. ”
Shi Xiangyun just wanted to open his mouth, but was stopped by Jia Jiu: "My sister just has no playmate, and I feel uncomfortable, if my sister doesn't like to see Baoyu surrounding him and look low, don't pay attention to him." ”
Shi Xiangyun said: "He didn't let Baoyu bow down and be small about him. I'm just angry that he is making a fuss about Baoyu's marriage. ”
Jia Jiu said: "As the saying goes, marriage is a major event, and the words of the matchmaker are the orders of the parents. Baoyu's marriage should have been decided by the second master and the second wife. If the second wife intends to kiss and let Baoyu marry his niece and daughter, it is also reasonable. ”
"But they don't deserve it."
"Since you know that they don't deserve it, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
"I," Shi Xiangyun snorted and said, "I just hate that woman for doing one thing behind her back." Today he said that I was not good, and tomorrow he said that I should do it, but he himself. It's disgusting to use such a means to sit down and do this. ”
Jia Jiu smiled: "Our Yun'er is also a big girl." ”
Shi Xiangyun showed a hint of shyness and said, "Second sister, what kind of girl do you say Baoyu will marry in the future?" ”
Jia Jiu said: "How do I know this?" Anyway, the elders are indispensable in this matter. The second master doesn't care about things, and the second wife is like that, so in the end, the old lady decides. My sister also knows that our two families are separated, and even my father is not qualified to ask about Baoyu's marriage. ”
Shi Xiangyun nodded thoughtfully, and said: "I remember that the aunt of the Lin family in the house also has a daughter as old as me, and now that this aunt is gone, won't the old lady take the sister of the Lin family over?" ”
Jia Jiu said: "Although my aunt is gone, my aunt is still there." My aunt only has a cousin, a daughter, so I think I will arrange a good arrangement for Sister Lin. Although my father didn't say it, I also knew that my father always felt that our family was sorry for my aunt and uncle. If it weren't for our family, my aunt wouldn't have been belittled, and my aunt wouldn't have been angry and died. So, although the old lady mentioned it, my father still didn't grind my aunt to send his daughter here. The old lady has been ignoring my father for some days. ”
Shi Xiangyun said: "Sister Lin is not coming? Shi Xiangyun's expression was not so much surprised and disappointed, but faintly revealing a hint of joy.
Jia Jiu said: "Yes." In the letter that my father wrote to my aunt, I said that I would listen to my aunt's idea. My aunt also replied to the old lady's kindness of wanting to raise Sister Lin in person. ”
After Jia Jiu finished saying this, he saw Shi Xiangyun obviously breathe a sigh of relief, and the whole person was relieved.
Obviously, Lin Daiyu did not come, and from Jia's mother's daily appearance, Shi Xiangyun also discovered Lin Daiyu's threat. In comparison, Xue Baochai is much smaller.
Jia Jiu said: "Sister Yun, you came here today, shouldn't you come to me to say what you have and don't have?" Is there anything else you can do? ”
I only heard Shi Xiangyun say: "Of course." Second sister, I remember that before the flower festival, you also have to participate in a hairpin flower party, right? Did the elders tell you about the hairpins? ”
Jia Jiu shook his head and said, "What, there are still articles here?" ”
Shi Xiangyun said: "It's a shame that I'm here today, otherwise I waited for that Xue Baochai to talk at length and told my sister for a long time, but my sister didn't understand it, and he took her into the ditch." With that, Shi Xiangyun told Jia Jiu about the hairpin club.
It turns out that although this hairpin flower party is for the female relatives of dignitaries, there are many girls who can participate in this kind of party, and they can be divided into three small groups according to age.
The oldest girls are no less than thirteen years old. Most of them are girls who have already participated in the draft, or do not need to be drafted, or have applied for exemption from the draft and married on their own, and most of these girls have a future, that is, to participate in this kind of party, but also for the future. Therefore, these girls' scheming is the deepest. If they want to pave the way for their future, they have to play tricks, and because of their limited experience and experience, they are particularly ridiculous and sad in the eyes of experienced people.
Girls between the ages of 10 and 13 are another layer. They haven't participated in the draft yet, but their families have already begun to conduct special training for them, so these girls' scheming may not be as good as the former, but they are the most comparable and easiest objects at the banquet. They are the pearls of the banquet, but they are also shooting stars, it is likely that they can be seen at the banquet this time, and they will not know where they are next time.
The third category is girls between the ages of seven and ten, these girls are often the daughters of the family, and they are very favored, so they can go out with their elders to see. As for children under the age of seven, it is rare to be brought to such a banquet, because children are too delicate and can easily get into trouble in crowded places.
However, most of the girls who can attend the hairpin party are concubines, and the concubines will definitely be excluded, and even some hairpin clubs only allow the concubines to participate, but they are not allowed to show up. The marriage of the concubine has another banquet for the convenience of each other.
