Chapter Twenty-Nine: Approaching
"Girl, girl, it's snowing outside, it's snowing heavily." The snow goose covered her ears with both hands, sucked in the cold, and ran into the house from outside, her words full of joy and amazement.
Originally named Brother Parrot, she was pointed out to Daiyu by Jia's mother, and the maid who changed her name to Zijuan smiled: "What's so strange about this." After breakfast, the snow began to fall sporadically, and it had been raining for a while, so you didn't just see it, did you? ”
Snow Goose put down her hand, revealing a pair of ears that were still a little red from the cold although they were covered, "I didn't feel anything when it snowed before, and it was the same when it snowed in our south, but now it is snowing heavily with goose feathers, which is not seen in the south."
Yuou hugged the coat he had just found and echoed: "If it weren't for entering Beijing, I'm afraid we wouldn't have seen heavy snow in this life." The snow in our south is all on the side, and there is almost no snow. ”
Put the coat on Daiyu, "Girl, hurry up and put the coat on." When the snow fell this morning, Zijuan reminded me that it was snowing and that it was going to cool down. I thought that I had already dressed the girl in thick clothes, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but I didn't expect the temperature to drop so much. Fortunately, the girl has not gone out of the house, otherwise, if I catch a cold because of this, I will not be able to redeem myself. ”
Xue Yan nodded and said, "That's it, that's it, this temperature drop is too much." I went out for breakfast, listened to Sister Zijuan's words, Baba wore a padded jacket, I didn't feel cold at the time, but it was very cold at this time, we are in the south, how can it be so cold this day.
The uncle asked the girl to bring so many big sweaters. At that time, I thought that the girl might not be able to wear such thick clothes, but now it seems that the uncle is really prescient. It's just strange, the uncle has never been to the capital, and he thinks about everything in advance, as if he has a prophetic eye. ”
Mama Wang came in from outside with the brewed milk tea, and said with a smile: "Although the uncle has never been to the capital, he is literate and literate." These things were in the book, and he had seen it in the book a long time ago. ”
Brought the cup containing the milk tea to Daiyu, "Girl, you taste this milk tea." The ** used to make tea, is made of powder made by the uncle's idea, although it is not as fresh as the freshness squeezed down, but I don't think the taste is much worse. ”
Daiyu picked it up, took a sip, and after tasting it carefully, she said, "I think it tastes better than the original." I don't know if the original milk tea is fresh, although jasmine and almonds are added to taste, but there is still a faint fishy smell; This one doesn't. ”
Xue Yan smiled when she heard this: "I knew that the girl liked to drink like this, and I still sent some fresh ** every day in the south Zhuangzi, but it is better to make powder, so that it can be stored for a long time." ”
Mama Wang said angrily: "Nonsense again." Everything is fresh and good, it's just a matter of no choice. ”
When Yen Chun became the imperial concubine, he specially gave Baoyu a bowl of sugar steamed cheese. It's just a bowl of crisp cheese made of cow's or goat's milk, which can be specially given to Baoyu by Yuan Chun, which is relatively rare, if not precious.
The milk tea that Daiyu drinks, although it is not as good as cheese, is also made of milk or goat's milk, which is relatively rare, at least it is not common in Jiafuli, so invisibly, in front of Zijuan, Xiao Xuan is rich. made her realize that the Lin family may not have lost to the Jia family.
Because I heard Jia Min say that the eating habits of the Lin family and the Jia family are very different, in order to let Daiyu not adapt to the different eating habits of the two families after arriving at the Jia family, Lin Jin prepared a lot of things for her, and repeatedly told Yuou and Mama Wang that after they first arrived, they should try to follow Daiyu's original living habits and follow what they prepared at home, so as to give Daiyu a transition time to adapt to the diet of the Jia family.
Because Zijuan only came to Daiyu's side, she was not familiar with Daiyu's living habits, so she couldn't intervene at all, which invisibly weakened her ability in front of Daiyu.
Although Zijuan was familiar with the people and affairs of the Jia family, Yuou did not hand over all the foreign affairs and entertainment in Daiyu's room to her. The day after arriving at Jia's house, Yuou took the gifts prepared by Lin Jin for the Jia family, and under the leadership of Zijuan, he sent them everywhere and began to deal with all the houses.
Yuou's communication skills are good, although he can't blend into the Jia family's slave group, but at least it's okay to get acquainted with each other in various rooms.
As a maid, Zijuan's abilities in all aspects are under the gull, even if she is from the Jia family and has the advantage of being well-connected in the Jia family, but among the two, Daiyu obviously relies more on the gull, so even if Zijuan is not very convinced, when facing the gull, she still has to call her "Sister Yugull". And her voice is not a "sister" from the age theory, which has established the status of the first big maid in Yuou Daiyu's room.
When she was on the road before, the jar with milk powder was placed on the boat in Jia Yu Village, and today's milk tea lost its smell, which was very suitable for her taste, so Daiyu, who hadn't drunk milk tea for a long time, poured another cup after drinking a cup.
Zijuan saw it in her eyes and remembered it in her heart, ready to go back to Mama Wang to learn how to make milk tea.
Xue Yan sat on the edge of the smoke cage and finally warmed up, looked at the rain gull who was discussing needlework with Mama Wang, and asked with a smile: "Sister Yuou, Mother Wang, have we sorted out all the things we brought?" ”
"It's all sorted out." Yuou couldn't help but count: "You are now concerned about this." When I was dealing with Mother Wang's things before, why didn't you say come over to help? All day long, I just know how to play around. If you stretch out your hand, more than one person, Mother Wang and I will be less busy. ”
Xue Yan retorted with words: "At this time, Sister Yuou, you blame me for not helping, it's not the time for me to reach out before, it's time for you to pick me up." Besides, although the uncle brought a lot of things to the girl, he cleaned up well and lasted two days, and we have been in the house for so many days, and you have just finished cleaning up, and I don't know what you are busy with? ”
Yuou was angry and laughed when he heard this, and said, "You little hoof, but you can say strange things." We have to live in the house for a while, and when we first arrive, why do we have to walk around, how can we hide in the house and do our own business?
As for driving you out and not letting you interfere, you're embarrassed to say it. The set of Rakshasa nesting dolls that the uncle gave to the girl is the girl's most beloved, and when you take it, you will knock it out, but fortunately, the outside packaging has not been removed, and the paint has not been knocked off.
At that time, we packed up, either glass, crystal, porcelain, or lacquer, just like you, do I dare you to continue to stay and help? ”
Snow Goose pouted, and was about to refute, when footsteps sounded outside the door, accompanied by "It suddenly snowed today, and the temperature plummeted, I don't know if my sister is still used to it?" Baoyu lifted the curtain and entered, interrupting her words.
As soon as Baoyu entered the house, she couldn't wait to offer her treasure to Daiyu, "Good sister, I brought you something to relieve your boredom!" As he spoke, he took a birdcage covered with cotton cloth from the little maid behind him.
Zijuan stepped forward to help uncover the cotton cloth on the outside of the birdcage, and when she saw the bird inside, she smiled and praised: "What a handsome parrot!" Where did the second master get this, it seems to be different from the old lady's house? ”
"The old lady raised a sunflower crest, which is tiger skin blue." Baoyu smiled: "On the day my sister first came, I was confused and rushed into my sister, so I wanted to buy something for my sister as an apology."
It's just that those mundane things that can't be moved are worthy of my sister, so I thought about buying a cat or a dog to come back, but I didn't find a suitable puppy for a while; As for the cat, I thought that my sister had a few goldfish, and they were brought from Yangzhou from thousands of miles away, so I thought it must be your usual beloved. If I buy a cat and come back, and the cat is hungry and eats goldfish, then I won't be able to make amends and add another sin. It just so happened that there were a few new parrots in Bird and Flower City, and I looked good, so I bought one for my sister. ”
Daiyu knew that what Baoyu was talking about when the two first met because Baoyu fell into tears and sadness, and hurriedly said: "The second brother has already made amends the next day, why did you mention this matter again today?" It's just a little thing, I have long forgotten how the second brother is so serious. ”
"Since my sister didn't blame me, why was she polite and distant to me every day? Thinking about it, my sister just said that she didn't blame me, but in fact, she still blamed me in her heart. ”
He sent the birdcage in his hand forward, and gave Daiyu another long look, and said: "All the mistakes are my fault, I was confused by lard, so I made my sister unhappy, and I asked my sister to forgive me a lot." ”
In fact, Daiyu treated Baoyu politely and detached, although there was part of the reason for the bad impression left on her by his sudden unprovoked throwing of jade when she first met, but more importantly, because of Mrs. Wang's previous advice.
Although the days of coming to Jiafu were not long, she soon saw that in this mansion, except for Jia's mother and Baoyu, other people, even the two uncles, were only face-saving to her. is different from others, as the "phoenix egg" in the family, Baoyu doesn't need to look at Jia's mother's face to deliberately please her, but Baoyu has never stopped caring about her, from eating, drinking, wearing, and using ,...... It's all about the details, it's all about the care, and it's all from the heart.
Seeing Baoyu behaving like this, Daiyu couldn't help but be a little moved. In front of Baoyu's behavior of "exchanging sincerity for sincerity", she had already relieved herself because of the little mustard that she had when she first met, and even that estrangement was dispelled, but because of Mrs. Wang's words, it was still not good to get close to Baoyu after all.
At this moment, Baoyu opened his words, although Daiyu was not good at explaining to him the reason for her estrangement from him, but her heart couldn't help but open up to Baoyu a little, smiled and returned a salute, and said: "That's it, I accepted this gift, don't mention it again." ”
When Baoyu heard this, he smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and nodded hurriedly: "It should be like this." It's just that I came to make amends for my sister's sins, so how dare I accept my sister's gift again. "He said it again.
Daiyu is willing to accept him in vain, and she is polite. In this way, you bowed, I saluted, and bowed several times in a row, and finally the two couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.
