Chapter 63. Protection
At this moment, Jia Huan walked in from outside and said: "Mother, what are you doing, I just finished writing and went to the side to wash my hands, what are you doing here, just like you, you still expect me to surpass the one in the main courtyard, I just have that luck, and I was disturbed by you." “
Saying that, Jia Huan saw Qiu Ju looking at him, so he didn't move and lifted his collar up by pulling his clothes.
It's not the first time that Shen'er, a little prodigal hoof, has made love to herself, and she actually scratched her neck, and I don't know if she was seen by the Qiu Ju next to her aunt.
Forget it, even if she sees it, if she dares to say it, she will say that she seduces herself, and when the time comes, with his aunt's temper, she will be the first to be spared.
Qiu Ju did see the mark on Jia Huan's neck, but she had been by Aunt Zhao and Jia Huan for so long, and she had long known the character of these two people, if she said it, Aunt Zhao didn't think she was meritorious, if Jia Huan wanted to take revenge on herself, then Aunt Zhao would definitely not say a word, and sold herself to the inferior land.
It's not like this kind of thing has never happened before, so why bother to go through this troubled water.
So Qiu Ju just glanced at it twice, then lowered her head without saying anything. Jia Huan saw that Qiu Ju was quite interesting, so he also planned to let her go, this girl had bulging breasts, and she didn't know how it felt.
"Okay auntie, you can drink tea and go back, my son and I still have to study." Saying that, Jia Huan stepped forward, saw that Greedy Mo was still kneeling on the ground, and scolded: "I'm still lazy, don't go and make tea." Although Greedy Mo knew that Jia Huan was doing his own good, after all, if he stayed here, maybe Aunt Zhao would be angry with herself after a while.
But greedy Mo looked at these two mothers and sons, and couldn't feel half grateful in his heart, if he hadn't been taken by their mother and son at the beginning, it would be better to be a little girl than now.
"What are you doing in a daze, go pour tea for your aunt." Jia Huan scolded Zhimo Dao.
"Yes, young master." Greedy Mo lowered his eyebrows and turned around to make tea, but the moment he turned around, Zhimo's eyes were full of hatred for Aunt Zhao, Jia Huan was cursing the main courtyard with Aunt Zhao at this time, and he didn't pay attention at all, but Qiu Ju noticed it, so he went to make tea with Greedy Mo.
Nine days have arrived in a blink of an eye, and today is the day when Baoyu has finished the exam, so early in the morning, Mrs. Wang prepared grapefruit leaves, ginger soup, brazier, and boiled hot water, and as soon as Baoyu came back, she let him bathe and purify his heart as soon as possible and rest early.
Qingwen has also heard people say before that some candidates can sleep for three days in a row after the exam before coming back to their senses.
However, seeing that Mrs. Wang prepared these early in the morning, Qingwen still felt that it was too early, that is, Baoyu would come out as soon as she finished writing the test paper, and it would be past noon, and now that the sun has not even come out, Baoyu is probably still struggling to write at this time.
Jia Zheng's family is waiting in Rongxi Hall, the two girls are also waiting for the spring to welcome the spring, Qingwen saw that it was Cui Mo who came with Yingchun today, and she was also a little curious about why Si Qi didn't come, after all, Si Qi was the big girl next to Yingchun before, and it was so easy to get a reward today, how could Si Qi give it to Cui Mo, could it be that she asked Yingchun for grace these days and had already gone out to marry her cousin?
Impossible, because Yingchun is a concubine, and her aunt was not favored before, so the big and small maids around her were all prepared for her by Mrs. Wang, how could she let Si Qi go out to marry without Mrs. Wang's consent? Isn't it Si Qi that something happened to him?
Yingchun saw Qingwen looking at her frequently, so she smiled at Qingwen and said, "You are worried about Si Qi, if so, when the second brother comes back, you can go with me to see her." “
Qingwen looked at Yingchun's smile, which was originally a very ordinary smile, with a hint of shyness in the soft bowl, as if when everyone was anxiously waiting, she suddenly spoke, and Yingchun felt very embarrassed.
Qingwen felt very uneasy, Qingwen didn't know what was wrong, and subconsciously refused: "Thank you Second Miss, when the Second Master comes back, the slave maid will sew clothes for the Second Master to go out to participate in the Spring Banquet, I'm afraid I won't be available in the short term, so let's wait to visit the Second Miss in the future." ”
Yingchun didn't say anything, just lowered his head and smiled, looking very pitiful.
However, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang didn't notice her, after all, their most important sister-in-law hadn't come back yet, and it was just talking, Jia Zheng didn't think there was anything at all, and Mrs. Wang, even if there was anything, she didn't bother to care.
And Aunt Zhao on the side, when she heard that Mrs. Wang asked Qingwen to make clothes for Baoyu to participate in the spring banquet, she was very disdainful.
Although it is not as good as the deer banquet after the palace examination, it is also the first time that many students show their faces in front of the world.
And Baoyu, just studied seriously for half a year, and then wanted to take the exam, but he was just a showman, and it was not so easy to test, otherwise the world's showman would not be able to go to the sea.
Now I am thinking about preparing the clothes for the spring banquet, this is to use her son as a prodigy, Aunt Zhao thought in her heart, and inevitably showed a little sourness on her mouth: "Sure enough, it is a serious sister-in-law, but it is different from our concubines, and I can go to the exam after just a few months of study." You say yes, Huan'er. ”
Aunt Zhao saw that her son couldn't stop dozing off on the chair next to her, so she didn't get angry, but after thinking about it, her son was learning too late, so she only felt pity in her heart, and thought that after going back, she asked Shen'er to stew a black-bone chicken for her son to make up for it.
Poor Aunt Zhao doesn't know how to meet, and she doesn't know that his son is not tired because of studying, but because of women. Jia Zheng couldn't reprimand Aunt Zhao in front of everyone, and Mrs. Wang didn't bother to be angry with Aunt Zhao at this time, so no one said Aunt Zhao.
Aunt Zhao originally thought that she wanted to say something, but Tanchun pulled Aunt Zhao's sleeve in time and reminded her.
Qingwen looked at the eyebrow lawsuit in this room with cold eyes, and she was really bored in her heart, it seems that it is time to let Shui Rong help her see what houses you can buy in Liuxian County, which she values.
It's just that I don't know if Shui Rong will be aware of his intentions, but in these days of intrigue all day, Qingwen is really tired.
Suddenly, a person ran in at the door, and said with a happy face: "Tell the old lady, the second master has already come out and is on the way back, the person is fine, but he looks very tired." ”
Mrs. Wang hurriedly beckoned left and right: "Hurry up, go and see if the grapefruit leaves, the ginger soup is ready, and the ginseng soup is also ready, and then go and call Dr. Li and ask him to wait in the house, and when the second master comes back, he will check the pulse." ”
Suddenly, there was a lot of work in all directions. Although Jia Zheng was not as obvious as Mrs. Wang, judging from the fact that he stroked his beard, stood at the door with Mrs. Wang with a smile and waited for Baoyude, he must have been very happy in his heart.
Aunt Zhao was very dissatisfied when she saw that Jia Zheng valued Baoyu so much, but she had also been in Jiafu for decades and naturally knew that she couldn't touch her head at this time.
So I attach great importance to my son's reading, these things, for Aunt Zhao, Jia Zheng's personal maid since childhood, she naturally knows it clearly, so Aunt Zhao often urges Jia Huan to study hard, although Jia Huan has not made any progress, but because he listens to Aunt Zhao's words, he is studying, so Jia Zheng also has two expectations for him.
"It's coming, it's coming." The little maid next to Baoyu helped Baoyu in, and Mrs. Wang saw that Baoyu's little face was pale and her body had lost a lot of weight.
stepped forward and hugged Baoyu and cried: "My son, you have suffered, come, let my mother take a good look at you." Saying that, it was a check on Baoyu.
Jia Zheng has also experienced the imperial examination, looking at Baoyu's current appearance, he knows that he is tired and wants to rest quickly, but Mrs. Wang lies on Baoyu and cries, Baoyu can't push her away, so she can only endure sleep.
"Confused, now that Baoyu has grown up and can take charge on his own, why do you still treat him as a child. At this time, he must be tired, you don't hurry to let him in to rest, but stop him at the door, you cry a little more, Baoyu will be tired a little more. Jia Zheng said.
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she remembered that what her son needed most now was rest, so she hurriedly wiped away her tears and helped Baoyu in. Baoyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that his mother had finally let him into the house, and looked at his father.
Seeing Jia Zhengzheng's proud face, Baoyu had forgotten how long it had been since he had been on his father's face, and seeing the expression other than anger and blame on himself, Baoyu instantly felt that everything he had done was meaningful.
The hard work of the examination room and the exhaustion of studying dissipated in an instant in the eyes of my father at this moment. Originally, Baoyu planned to pass the exam like this.
But now, Baoyu feels that she should do better. Then he strutted forward, with Mrs. Jia Zhengwang, crossed the brazier, sprinkled grapefruit water into the door, washed up, and had a meal with Mrs. Jia Zhengwang, during which not only was not as good as before, both afraid and wanted to hide, but took the initiative to talk to Jia Zheng, and took the initiative to give Jia Zheng a toast halfway, which was unimaginable before.
When Mrs. Wang saw this, she also secretly cried a few times.
Qingwen also saw the change in Baoyu, looking at the appearance of the father and son in front of her, Qingwen was entangled again, in the mansion, whether she really had true feelings, and whether she could also consider it, "Master, you can eat some of this." Aunt Zhao picked up a piece of hoof flowers and sent it to Jia Zheng's bowl.
This old man suddenly broke the illusion in Qingwen's heart, no matter whether Shui Rong wanted to marry her or not, Qingwen neither wanted to be "Mrs. Wang" nor "Aunt Zhao".
