The significance of Jia Jiu's participation in the eldest princess's hairpin party, Jia Mu knows better than anyone else, and he cares more about the result than anyone else. Although Jia Jiu didn't say anything before leaving, Jia Mu only explained that he had fun, but in fact, Jia Mu was more worried than anyone else.

As a result of being overly worried, Jia's mother called Jia Baoyu, Jia Cong and all the girls in the family in front of her, and used the children's frolic to dispel her worries.

When she heard someone outside report that Jia Jiu was back, Jia Mu couldn't help but look at Shichen.

Why did you come back so early? It's just past noon, and there's no time yet!

Jia Mu's heart tightened, and the bracelet in her hand made a cleaning sound. Xue Baochai saw it clearly on the side, his heart moved, but he smiled in his mouth: "The old lady is as good as Mount Tai, I thought the old lady was already in the chest, but now when I see it, I know that the old lady is distressed about the second sister." I don't know what the hairpins will be like in Kyoto, but when I was in the south, I also participated in the hairpin festival, and I remember that children under the age of ten don't have to stay until the end of the Shen period, and even girls who have had their hairpins taken away will go home early. Old lady, I'm overjoyed. ”

When Jia Mu heard this, there was a little smile on her face, and she said, "Then borrow your auspicious words." If you don't say it, I'll forget about it. No matter how powerful the second girl is, he is eight years old this year, and he went out with his relatives. It's only right to go home after taking a nap. Come on, go and see who sent the second girl back. ”

Sure enough, after a while, the following came to report: "Go back to the old lady, the steward of the princess's mansion has sent the second girl back." The princess also gave the girl a large jade ornament. At this time, the lord was entertaining the steward of the princess's mansion. The second girl was also in front of the master, and she would come over in a while. ”

Jia Mu heard. It was even more relieved.

Shi Xiangyun saw him on the side and said, "Old lady." I said that the second sister must be fine, but the old lady didn't believe it. Is it credible now? ”

Jia Mu hugged Shi Xiangyun and said, "Just you girl, you are clever." He said to Aunt Xue again: "Speaking of which, several girls in our family are strong and strong, so clean and clean, just such a second girl can still take it slightly, but her temperament is two extremes, usually too weak, and too strong when there is something." It's still the treasure girl of my aunt's family. There are a few children in our family, but none of them can compare. ”

Aunt Xue said: "I am intimate with this daughter now, and I will definitely prepare a big dowry for him in the future and send him out." ”

Xue Baochai blushed even more when he heard this, and lowered his head. didn't know that these words deeply offended Jia Yuanchun, Jia Tanchun and Shi Xiangyun.

Originally, there were only two women sitting here, Mother Jia and Aunt Xue. In front of the guests, is it possible to ask Jia Mu and Wang Po to sell melons and boast about herself? Of course, it's the sedan chair that carries people, you hold me, I hold you. Jia Mu praised Xue Baochai. According to the etiquette, it should be Aunt Xue who praised Xue Baochai in turn. But Aunt Xue actually accepted it like that, and proudly proclaimed Xue Baochai's future dowry.

I don't know if he's been in the south for too long, or if he's used to being flattered by those who don't have a climate. actually forgot that this was not Jinling, and Jia's mother was not a woman from a merchant family who was on an equal footing with Aunt Xue in the past, but a dignified lady.

Aunt Xue was confused. Xue Baochai also failed to reflect in time.

He's only ten years old this year, and no matter how good he is, he just does a good job. It's not perfect, either. What's more, it's a bitter summer now. The heat hindered his thinking even more. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his mother. Even because of Jia's mother's praise, he was even more convinced that he would become Jia Baoyu's wife. Therefore, he just followed the beautiful upbringing he had received in the past, and when outsiders mentioned his marriage, he lowered his head and made a shy appearance.

When Jia Yuanchun saw Xue Baochai's appearance, his heart was on fire. For the first time, he felt that this cousin was such an eyesore. Mother Jia said that these girls in the family naturally include him, the eldest granddaughter who has always regarded herself as Miss Rongguo Mansion. Jia Yuanchun gave in to Jia Jiu, because he knew that his father was not as good as Jia Yu, a first-class general, his younger brother was useless, and he might need the support of his uncle and cousin in the future. But what is Xue Baochai? It's just a businesswoman, who dislikes her younger brother and doesn't say it, and now it's even more on his head!

Jia Yuanchun was unsettled, but Shi Xiangyun had a seizure first.

"Old lady, in your eyes, am I not as good as Sister Bao?"

Mother Jia hugged Shi Xiangyun and said, "Oh, our Yun girl has also grown up, and she is not a little doll anymore." But Yun girl, you are my niece and granddaughter, a serious princess, you have to know courtesy, you know? ”

Shi Xiangyun said whimfully: "Old lady......"

was making a fuss, and I heard the voice of the little girl outside: "Old lady, the second girl is back." ”

Jia Mu immediately gave up Shi Xiangyun and stood up. I saw Jia Jiu holding the little girl's hand across the threshold, and behind him, a tall and very cool-looking daughter-in-law followed across the threshold with a one-foot-high jade ornament. The daughter-in-law carefully placed the ornament on the large round table carved with red sandalwood in the middle of the room, and respectfully withdrew.

Jia Jiu came up to salute Jia's mother, and Jia's mother said repeatedly: "Okay, good, just come back." Personally helped Jia Jiu up, pulled him to his side, and asked about today's events. Jia Jiu naturally didn't dare to hide it from Jia Mu, only concealed what he overheard and his own careful thoughts, and said the rest.

At the beginning, Jia Jiu didn't dare to say that he was deliberately hiding, but Jia Mu was not so easy to fool, and in some places she asked over and over again. Jia Mu asked carefully, and Jia Jiu's idea of careful thinking was naturally known by Jia Mu.

When Jia Yuanchun saw Jia's mother pondering, he knew that Jia's mother was very dissatisfied with Jia Jiu's behavior of hiding in the rockery, so he smiled and said, "Old lady, the second sister is really smart." Our family is now on the cusp of this storm, if we follow the eldest girl of the Zhang family, when everyone salutes each other, I am afraid that those girls will unite to squeeze out the second sister. The second sister didn't give this tip to others, and others naturally couldn't find a reason to attack him. With this good luck, it can be seen that God is also helping the second sister. ”

Jia Mu said: "Your second sister not only has God's help, but also the ancestors of our family also help your second sister." I also know that you are afraid of things, two girls, and you are afraid of offending people, so you hide there. But there are some things that don't just dodge. You must know that people are good at being bullied by others, and horses are good at being ridden by others. The weaker you are, the more others will try to fix you. Not next time. Even if it's a bluff, you can't lose your momentum. You know, if you're afraid of causing trouble, the other party is also afraid. You are young, and if you let others see that the two sides are facing each other, you will also be on your side. Do you remember? ”

Jia Jiu nodded hurriedly. (To be continued......)
