030 Gifts are exchanged
"Etiquette is still exchanged, since Cousin Xue takes care of Niuniu like this, you are also more attentive on weekdays, they are new to our house, and they are living in our house, there is always an inconvenient time."
Wang Xifeng glared at him, "You still need to say this!" Although I, Wang Xifeng, are scolded and mean, but half of the people have ever said that I will take revenge?
She is good to us Niuniu, and I naturally want to reciprocate.
Not to mention the food, clothing, housing and transportation in our house on weekdays, but their house has been renovated recently, which one I didn't send anyone to help?
Otherwise, they have just arrived in the capital, and they don't know how much silver they will be pitted! ”
Jia Lian sneered, "That's good, that's good."
"However, Cousin Xue is exquisitely smart, and her rare temperament is even better, I really appreciate it, and I can talk to me.
I only hate that I want to be in charge of this big family, and I have to serve this and serve that, and I can't be empty, otherwise, I really can't wait to learn Sister Lin, and I won't come back every day in Lixiangyuan! ”
Wang Xifeng put down his chopsticks as he spoke, picked up a string of hawthorn sugar gourds, and took a bite of it, only to feel that the saliva was about to flow down, and hurriedly shouted, "Ping'er, you can taste it too."
This sweet and sour, I have never eaten such a delicious taste, I have really eaten sugar gourd for so many years! ”
Ping'er took a bite of her hand and praised it again and again.
Sister Qiao'er watched from the side and suddenly became anxious, and the little spoon swung faster.
Jia Lian scolded with a smile, "There is something delicious, give it to your daughter, eat it for yourself, even Ping'er's little hooves have it, but you don't give it to me, who is closest to you!" ”
As he spoke, he grabbed Wang Xifeng's hand and took the last hawthorn on the bamboo skewer away.
Wang Xifeng scolded, Ping'er couldn't help laughing, and Sister Qiao'er also smirked when she saw that the adults were laughing.
It's a room full of laughter!
The family was laughing, and they heard someone laughing outside, "Sister Feng, if you have something to be happy about, I'm here to have fun."
But it's Jia Baoyu.
At this time, it was already spring, but Jia Baoyu was still wearing a cloak.
Wang Xifeng hurriedly ordered the little girl to untie his cloak for him, invited him to sit down, and said with a smile, "We are having dinner, Brother Bao wait a while."
Jia Lian smacked his lips, "It's indeed better than the outside, but this sour smell can only be tolerated by your vinegar jar!" ”
Wang Xifeng couldn't help but hit him, "It's not that you drag all the fragrant and stinky things into the room, I'm happy to be a virtuous person!" ”
In front of Jia Baoyu and her daughter, Jia Lian was a little embarrassed, for fear that she would refute it, and Wang Xifeng had a basket of words waiting for him, so he only snorted and didn't dare to say anything more.
Jia Baoyu saw the lamp for the first time, so she couldn't help but play with it in her hand, and said with a smile, "This is exquisitely done, Sister Feng is really wealthy, and something new always has to be used first."
Wang Xifeng inevitably told the truth again, and Jia Baoyu was silent when he heard it.
Since the first day, he provoked Xue Baobao to be very angry, and every time Mrs. Xue came to ask Jia's mother to say goodbye, she rarely brought Xue Baobao, and she quickly went to find other sisters with Xue Baobao.
Every time he tried to say a few words to her, he couldn't find a chance.
She's still annoyed with him!
Give such a good thing to Niu Niu, and don't give him a copy.
Seeing his appearance, he knew that most of them were still worried about the conflict with Xue Baobao, so he picked an orange sugar gourd and handed it to him, "Brother Bao also taste it."
At this time, strawberries were difficult to find, and I didn't know where the Xue family got them, so they wanted to keep them for their daughter.
Just give Baoyu to eat oranges, it's delicious anyway.
Jia Baoyu didn't belong to his mind, and he didn't taste anything he ate, but Sister Qiao saw that he also ate it, for fear that when it was her turn, she wouldn't have it, so she didn't wave the little spoon anymore, and stared hard at the small bamboo box.
Jia Lian took the opportunity to say, "Niuniu doesn't want to drink soup anymore?" Then let's go eat sugar gourds."
When Niuniu heard that it was okay to do this, she hurriedly put down the spoon, twisted the small pestle, and went to get the sugar gourd.
Jia Lian then ordered, "Bring another spoon, and I'll taste the fish soup."
Wang Xifeng glared at him funny, Jia Lian smiled, it wasn't that he was gluttonous, the main thing was to know if it was as delicious as Wang Xifeng boasted.
He was just going to taste two bites, but he didn't want to go down with a spoonful, so he couldn't stop, and praised while eating, "I've eaten a lot of fish soup, but none of them can have this delicious and fresh!"
It's tender, smooth and moist, if you can drink such a bowl after drinking, it's like a fairy! ”
Wang Xifeng couldn't help but scold, "I think about drinking every day, can you have a little luck, my aunt's cousin, I am scolded every day for being a fool of Xue, and I still have a real shortage of leaders!" ”
Jia Lian also spent money to buy a fictitious title, but he couldn't find a real vacancy, and he didn't care, he just knew that he was wandering around, occasionally running errands for Jia's mother and Jia Zheng, and he was very comfortable.
Jia Lian drank the fish soup in a comfortable mood, and was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Your cousin is not stupid, just yesterday he played Rong'er and Qiang'er to break his fortune!" ”
Wang Xifeng hurriedly asked the reason, Jia Lian elaborated, and finally said, "Poor Rong'er and Qiang'er were coaxed by him, even if their family gave up their housekeeping rights, could they still lack money to spend?"
He is the patriarch of the Xue family, and Aunt Xue doesn't care about him very much, can he have no money? ”
Wang Xifeng had only seen Xue Pan once, and he didn't know the depth, so he only said suspiciously, "If you say that, it's not really stupid."
You are a bit like that, my cousin is a great one, and it stands to reason that no matter how bad my brother is, he won't be any worse."
Jia Lian hurriedly asked, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but tell the situation in the palace that day, and said, "Auntie wants to pay money from Xue's money bank, and she is very anxious, so she wrote a letter to her uncle."
Aunt Xue didn't move, and she didn't know what her attitude was.
I went to Qianzhuang to ask, but Qianzhuang only said that I had to listen to the third master of the Xue family now, and I could pay the money, but I only took out the seal and receipt."
Jia Lian was amazed, "Your family married an aunt and grandmother to the Xue family, and there was such a benefit, I knew that our family would also marry one!" ”
Wang Xifeng glared at him angrily, "You don't have to worry, when your aunt and grandmother grow up, you can sell it directly to the Xue family!" ”
Jia Lian realized that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly apologized.
Jia Baoyu couldn't help but praise while listening, "Sister Bao dares to compete with her aunt in person, protecting her aunt, she really has the style of a heroine."
Wang Xifeng couldn't help but say, "Your sister Bao is a powerful person, is your sister Lin so bad?"
It's your third sister, who crawled out of your aunt's belly, but she is also a good one.
Just look at yourself, before the second master said to send you to study at home, the old lady said that it was cold, afraid that you would catch the wind.
Now that the weather is warmer, your sister Bao, sister Lin, and third sister are all learning books and rules with Mr. every day, but you are embarrassed to follow a group of us women in the back house every day."
Jia Baoyu's face turned red when she said it, and she couldn't help but argue, "I also study at home, and the gentleman in the family school never leaves his mouth every day for fame and fortune, but he misunderstands the original intention of reading, which makes people not pure."
Wang Xifeng sneered, "Isn't the original intention of studying for fame and fortune?" I don't know how to make a mistake, it's like your second master, who is unofficial and light, and sleeps with slave wives everywhere every day? ”
Jia Baoyu didn't like her vulgar words, but she didn't want to leave, she wanted to hear more about Xue Baobao, so she only had a cold face and didn't speak.
Jia Lian scolded with a smile, "It's okay if you mess with me at home every day, but now it's involved in Brother Bao, and the old lady knows about beating you!" ”
Wang Xifeng is not afraid, "I only talk about him for his good, like Brother Huan'er, I don't have to say anything if I give me money!" ”
Jia Lian saw that it didn't make sense, so he had to change the topic and said, "Since our Niuniu has the benefits of Cousin Xue, don't be too picky, one day be a host, invite your aunt and cousin to listen to a play, and eat table noodles."
Wang Xifeng couldn't help but ask him again, "You still need to say this!" If you want me to say, you don't have to set up any table seriously, but let the sisters restrain you.
Dongfu said that I would have a treat for a while, and when the time comes, I will take my sisters to have a fun day, wouldn't it be light and convenient? ”
Jia Lian laughed, "You are light and convenient, and you have saved the silver of being an east, and you are all boasting that the second grandmother knows how to take care of the house!" This treat is invited to someone else's house, but isn't it a housekeeper? ”
Wang Xifeng was so angry that he wanted to beat him, but Jia Baoyu came to the spirit and asked, "What day is the sister-in-law of Dongfu set?" I don't have anything to do, but I can help write an invitation and send another one or something."
Wang Xifeng, "......"
I want to beat this one up too!
……
……
The next day, Xue Baobao still went to study with Lin Daiyu and a few others, and after her husband left, Lin Daiyu asked her why she didn't come yesterday.
Xue Baobao said that Xue Pan was drunk and didn't dare to come back to disturb Mrs. Xue, so she went to the Xue family's house, she went over early in the morning to take care of it, and went shopping by the way.
Lin Daiyu smiled when she heard this, "I told you to find a good reason not to study."
Xue Baobao also smiled, she just came to make a scene, but Zhen Yinglian studied very seriously, much more serious than learning to settle accounts.
Lin Daiyu said again, "If you really don't like to read these poems and articles, you don't have to come every day, I'll go and talk to my aunt."
Xue Baobao waved his hand, "Don't, I'll still come, just think it's me working hard and being filial to my mother, so that she won't worry about my decency every day."
Lin Daiyu and Tanchun couldn't help laughing, Tanchun laughed and scolded, "You are narrow-minded, I only learned today that there is such filial piety."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a voice outside the window and laughed, "What kind of filial piety is it, the third sister will also tell me."
It was Jia Baoyu.
Xue Baobao immediately put away her smile, Mrs. Xue still has the heart of gold and jade good fate, she must not give her the slightest chance, as long as Jia Baoyu is within a foot of her, she will immediately put on a straight face.
Seeing her like this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but laugh.
Tanchun didn't seem to notice it at all, and repeated Xue Baobao's words with a smile.
Jia Baoyu stepped forward to salute and said with a smile, "Sister Bao can understand Aunt Xue's heart of wanting her daughter to become a phoenix, which is really a great filial piety."
Tanchun immediately said, "Then why don't you understand your wife's desire for Jackie Chan and be filial and filial?" ”
Jia Baoyu has always been dislike people urging him to study and improve, so he just pretended not to hear it, and took out the invitation, "The sister-in-law of Dongfu wants to invite the big guys to listen to the play and eat wine, and I was instructed to write an invitation and send it to the sisters."
