Chapter 268: Curiosity

(Got a little drink, late.) )

"My sister misses my uncle." Not far away, Jia Baoyu said bluntly.

Daiyu didn't hide her feelings, and said, "I haven't corresponded with my father for a long time, and I don't know how he's doing now?" How are you doing? ”

Seeing that there was no one around, Jia Baoyu gently held Daiyu's hand, "Sister, don't worry, my people also sent back news two days ago, saying that it was because Yangzhou was selling illicit salt too seriously recently, and my uncle was too busy to come over in time." ”

"Really?" Even if it was Jia Baoyu's absolute trust, Daiyu was a little skeptical at this time whether Jia Baoyu was simply to make herself feel at ease.

"Of course, my sister doesn't believe that I can find someone to talk to you."

Hearing Jia Baoyu say this, Daiyu really believed it, although she still missed her father very much, but she didn't have the worries she had before.

Jia Baoyu naturally didn't lie to Daiyu, and even before he said it all, he not only knew about it, but even strictly speaking, this matter was implicated in him.

sent Daiyu back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Jia Baoyu also returned to Yihong Courtyard, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, there was a little maid guarding the door to say hello.

casually said hello and was about to go in, but he turned around, looked at the little maid in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's a little similar to Qingwen, what's your name?" ”

The little maid lowered her head when Jia Baoyu looked at her, and said shyly: "Wu'er." ”

"Wu'er?" Jia Baoyu thought of it when she heard the name, and asked, "But it's the girl from Sister-in-law Liu's house in the kitchen." ”

"The second master knows me." Because of Jia Baoyu's words, Liu Wu'er's eyes suddenly had a little more brilliance. It's a great honor for her.

"I've heard of it." After that, Jia Baoyu just went in.

Liu Wu'er is not a nameless person in the Red Mansion, Jia Baoyu naturally knows, when she saw Liu's sister-in-law, she also saw some maids in the yard, but there was no Liu Wu'er, thinking that she was recuperating from illness and no longer cared.

The new maids are all responsible for attacking people, but I don't want Liu Wu'er to come in at this time.

When he got to the house, he took off his thick clothes, and it just so happened that Qingwen was the only one in the house making clothes.

Jia Baoyu came to Qingwen's side, and was very skillful in trying the size of the clothes, and said while trying: "The little maid guarding the door is seven points with you." Who is coming in? ”

I thought Qingwen would be surprised. But I didn't want to have the slightest accident at all, and said very calmly: "Wu'er is weak and can't do heavy work, sister-in-law Liu, please." I let her in. ”

Jia Baoyu didn't want Liu Wu'er to have a relationship with Qingwen. It's no wonder that such a weak body can enter such a sought-after Jia Baoyu courtyard.

I was about to ask when I met. I heard Qingwen say in surprise: "Why has the second master grown so fast recently?" ”

"Eat well, sleep well, and grow faster." said that he carried Qingwen to the bed outside, otherwise it would be a little difficult to measure his figure with Qingwen's height.

It is worth mentioning that the outside of Yihong Courtyard is a large chase bed. Except for one of the big girls, the others can sleep outside, and they will also be used to eat wine or something in winter, just set up a small table.

As for the other uses, it is not enough to educate outsiders.

Zi Lingzhou, there is another person who is doing things like Qingwen, but at this time, his brows are slightly furrowed, it is Xiuyan.

"Is it a little longer?"

The spring clothes that he said he would make for Jia Baoyu a few years ago were originally made for more than half of them, but today Xiuyan feels that Jia Baoyu has risen a little more than before.

The subtle differences are not important, but it is a very important thing for both Qingwen and Xiuyan, Qingwen is duty and dignity, and Xiuyan wants to express her gratitude, and perhaps there is a reason why she does not want to fully accept the favor of others.

From time to time, other people also came here, and they all saw that it was Baoqin and the three, and they all said what they thought in their hearts, and even compared Xiuyan together.

Most of them admired Baoqin, and asked Jia Baoyu's point of view.

Jia Baoyu thought for a moment and said, "It's considered to have its own characteristics!" If you really want to say that I like that kind of thing, I probably like the sister of the Li family, and Shui Ling really wants to pinch it on her face. ”

The audience admired it so much, and Qingwen, the only one who hadn't seen her, was very curious at this time, and said: "You people, just bullied me and didn't go, here you say a word to me, but there is no good person." ”

It was rare for everyone to see Qingwen helpless, and they all laughed.

Jia Baoyu shook his head helplessly, "It's like it's our fault, so that's it!" I'll draw it for you. ”

After listening to Jia Baoyu, Xiangling hurriedly ran to polish the ink, Musk Yue laid the paper, and handed over the pen.

Jia Baoyu sketched it in his heart, and did not paint the three of Baoqin alone, but even drew Xiuyan and Baochai into it, according to the feeling that everyone greeted the four people in the original book.

………………………………

Wuyuan is the farthest place to live, Baochai and Baoqin walked all the way back and spent a lot of effort, Baoqin looked at the scenery outside Wuyuan, I liked it very much.

The two sisters, who hadn't seen each other for many years, whispered for a while.

In the end, Baoqin suddenly asked: "Sister, I know the three sisters of the Jia family, my sister and Sister Lin, and who is the other sister!" ”

"And a sister?" Baoqin suddenly asked, Baochai didn't think of who it was for a while, there were too many female dependents in the family, so they almost rushed up.

Bao Qin listened and explained: "It's the one that Bao Er Ye has been staring at." ”

"Baoyu is staring at?" Baochai listened to it and shook her head helplessly, "This person doesn't know how to restrain himself, even you can see it, that is the niece of the eldest lady of the house, named Xiuyan, and she is also a decent and amiable person." ”

After speaking, seeing that Baoqin had been staring at her, Baochai gently nodded her forehead and said, "What are you thinking?" ”

Baoqin didn't hide it, and said directly: "Sister is not angry at all? I've heard that my sister and he have already made a deal. ”

Baochai's face turned slightly red when he heard this, and he said, "How can you know so much about thousands of miles away?" ”

"It's not me who knows much, this brother's name is spread all over the streets, although outsiders don't pass on my sister's name, but people like me naturally know it."

"How did it get around?"

Baochai was not in a hurry to answer Baoqin's words, but she was curious about the rumors in the streets and alleys, and she could know how it was spread from such a distance as Jinling, but she couldn't know.

Baoqin then said those rumors, some said that Jia Baoyu only talked to women, some said that it was just a cover-up, he was not close to women at all, and even more listened to the grievances of the female relatives in the family, and so on, even more funny.

Baochai, who has always been dignified and steady, couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, "He should really hear these words." ”

"My sister has really changed! Is it because of him? Baoqin looked at Baochai, who had not seen him for many years, and said with emotion.

Naturally, her cleverness doesn't need to be said, even if Baochai looks at everything as usual, and her performance is not much different, but the difference in some details is a complete change.

Baochai didn't nod or shake his head, but answered Baoqin's previous question, "Baoyu is good at everything, it's just a little fraternal, but for me, it's nothing, when you're older, you'll know, a shoulder that can be relied on is more important than many things, and it's very reassuring when you snuggle, because you are sure that you can entrust everything to each other." ”

Baoqin looked at Baochai in front of her, and Baochai's face at this moment was filled with an indescribable emotion, but she seemed to be familiar with this emotion.

didn't ask, but she didn't plan to give up this kind of question, she was very curious, what was the real Jia Baoyu like?

A little later, Yihong Courtyard was busy, today is the joy of housewarming, even if it is just from one place in the house to another, but it is also a good thing, a party is indispensable, Yihong Courtyard is naturally the first choice, who makes Jia Baoyu rich!

At this time, Qingwen, who was seduced by curiosity, also met the three of Baoqin.

The first one to come was Tanchun, she was surprisingly happy today, but people didn't know what was good.

Tongxianren and others are very familiar with each other, and for a while, they ignored Jia Baoyu and talked about women's gossip.

"Which one do you think is the best?"

Qingwen smiled: "I think it's better for them to be the younger sister of Miss Xue." ”

Tanchun said: "Sure enough." As far as I can see, even her sister and these people are inferior to him. The old lady liked it when she saw it

But, it's already forcing our wife to admit the girl. The old lady wants to feed, and it has just been decided. ”

"If it's true, even the old lady has this idea, but the second master's vision is different from others."

Tanchun was immediately interested when he heard this, and asked, "Which one is Brother Bao's favorite?" ”

Jia Baoyu didn't get involved in these gossip things, listened to Tanchun's words, put down the book in his hand, "Why did this change its flavor after passing it once or twice!" Why did I like it, I just think that Li Qi's sister is very smart. ”

"Then which one do you prefer, Li Qi or Brother Xiu Yanbao?" Tanchun seemed to deliberately ignore Jia Baoyu's words, and then asked.

Jia Baoyu was a little angry, "One or two of them are all learned from whom, they are all doing something out of nothing, don't ask me to do things in the future." ”

"Good brother, it's all my fault, you are very upright." Tanchun listened, and although he knew that Jia Baoyu was doing this on purpose, he still apologized in a hurry.

This made Jia Baoyu a little uncomfortable, looking at Tanchun who was close to him, he was far away, and said vigilantly: "What kind of conspiracy does the third sister have to use?" ”

Tanchun pursed his lips and smiled, but he didn't answer this sentence, it can be seen that there is definitely something, but I don't know which one? (To be continued......)
