Li Weijian's face was amiable, and he smiled and deliberately guided, and as soon as Qingwen was over, she relaxed and turned to talk about her daily work.

At this time, what do the big families do, especially the maids in Jiafu, do in a day?

Take a personal maid like Qingwen as an example, she has to get up three times in the morning, freshen up and dress up, and if she has time to hurry up for breakfast, she will then wait for the master to get up and wash and prepare breakfast;

After that, he cleaned the room and returned to his master to listen to his commands;

If there is no command, because Qingwen is good at needlework, she will sew clothes;

If the master walks in the house, he must be with him;

She will not rest on her own until her master is asleep, three hundred and sixty days a year, every day.

Wiping her back, Qingwen moved over again and wiped her chest for Li Weijian. Li Weijian sat down, put his hands on the edge of the bathtub, simply closed his eyes and enjoyed it, and said, "I usually get up at the same time, but I have to work hard for you." But I don't have much to do here, so you can just take the time to catch up on sleep during the day. ”

Qingwen said: "The fourth master said this, but if you get up early for a while, where can you be sleepy?" ”

Li Weijian smiled, opened his eyes, and saw that Qingwen was already sweating at this time, and took a handkerchief to wipe his right hand on his chest, leaving an inch of fingernails coated with phoenix juice. He reached out and snatched the veil and said, "All right, bring me the clothes, and you can rest early." ”

Qingwen answered, turned around and went to get him a clean middle coat, and waited for Li Weijian to change into it, and then beckoned the two rough maids to dispose of the bath bucket.

Li Weijian was tired of traveling and driving, and he was indeed tired at the moment, and Qingwen asked the rough maid to move the smoke cage into the warm pavilion, and then Shi Shiran retreated.

………………………………

Three rooms separated by a wall.

In the laughter, Yingying Yanyan Yong will come in, hugging the maid who stayed in the summer and hurriedly stepped forward to remove the red gorilla felt for Sanchun, Tanchun looked up with a little face full of admiration: "It's a pity that the fourth brother is eating wine in front, otherwise I will have to toast a glass." ”

Yingchun just smiled on the side, and Xichun said: "My own second brother Bao didn't see how you got close, but how did you get close to the fourth brother of the eldest sister-in-law's family?" ”

Tanchun smiled and nodded Xichun's eyebrows: "It's different." The fourth brother seems to have the heroic spirit of the ancients. ”

The maid who was stacking the book said, "Speaking of which, the fourth master of Jian also gave things to a few girls." ”

Tanchun was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Really? What did Brother Jian send? ”

Siqi, the maid who welcomed the spring, said with a smile: "The second girl and the fourth girl are both two silk fans, but the third girl is different, only one fan and another jujube sword. After a pause, Si Qi smiled even more and said, "This thrifty fourth master is also interesting, could it be that he gave the magic sword when he was a Taoist priest to the third girl?" ”

Tanchun ignored it, and ran straight inside: "What about the sword?" ”

The maid Cuimo hurriedly stopped: "Girl, slow down, I'll get it, girl wait." ”

With Cuimo in front, the maids who welcomed spring and cherished spring also took the objects sent by Li Weijian.

Cui Mo returned first, a jujube wood sword of more than two feet, and a silk fan. Tanchun eagerly grabbed the jujube wood sword, and felt that the weight was just right, and suddenly waved it indiscriminately for a while.

The other two maids also returned one after another, Yingchun took the fan, and saw the spring flowers painted on it, and suddenly rejoiced. She is a little transparent in the house, not to mention that she is an outsider, even her own family sometimes forgets her. It is rare for outsiders to think about it, and they are naturally happy;

Xichun unfolded two fans and looked, on which were painted with mandala flowers, the little girl felt that it was good-looking, but she didn't understand why she was a mandala flower. She is still young, and she has never had the intention of becoming a monk and escaping the world;

Dow—

The jujube wood sword slammed into the table, and the waiter hurriedly said: "Girl, be careful, if you bump into yourself, won't you make a joke?" ”

Tan Chun still collected the wooden sword, because he said: "When I have time to go back, I will ask the fourth brother of Jian, and I will practice it again after learning the swordsmanship." What about fans? ”

She took the fan from the maid and saw that it was painted with red roses with thorns. Tanchun looked at the spring and cherished the spring again, and suddenly felt that the red rose was quite self-conscious. turned suspicious and said, "Strange way, how does Fourth Brother Jian know what flowers are in line with our hearts?" ”

Xichun said: "The second sister's name is Yingchun, and the picture is Yingchun flower; My picture is a mandala, where does it fit? ”

Tanchun bowed his head and said with a smile: "That may be a coincidence, it just coincides with the second sister and me." ”

Jia's mother's house.

Baoyu and Daiyu were still young at this time, and they both lived in Jia's mother's room. The two small ones carried Jia Mu into the room, and Jia Mu said: "I have eaten too much wine, and this time I will be very tired, and you two little ones will go to bed early." ”

The mandarin duck hurriedly helped Jia Mu and helped her to the west set to rest.

Baoyu was not less interested, and said, "My sister can just see it?" Sister-in-law Feng begged again and again, but the big guy just didn't follow. Who made her usually gag and pretend to be a bad person, this time, it is revenge for injustice and revenge. ”

Daiyu glanced at him and said, "It's okay for others, you can also go and have fun." Be careful that Sister-in-law Feng has found your shortcomings and given you a good look. ”

"She wants to find my shortcomings, and I will go to find my ancestor to be the master."

The attacker came over with a smile and said, "Second master, let's go wash up first." The old lady rested, and it was not easy to make noise. ”

Baoyu responded, and Musk Yue came over with a wet handkerchief and said, "The new fourth master also sent a maid to give gifts to the second master and the girl." ”

Baoyu tilted his head and let the attacker wipe his face, and said casually: "What did you send?" ”

"What I gave to the second master is a set of four treasures of the study."

"Oh." Baoyu responded with pity.

"What I gave to Miss Lin were two silk fans, and they looked fresh."

Baoyu was interested and said, "Fresh? Take a look. ”

Daiyu's maid Snow Goose wanted to speak and stopped, looked at Daiyu, and saw that she had never refutated, so she turned around and went to the blue yarn cabinet to get two fans.

Baoyu wiped his face, ran over and snatched the fan, looking back and forth one by one. Then he praised: "The white wall, blue water and powder hibiscus, it really looks good, and my sister will also take a look." ”

Daiyu took the fan, glanced at the pattern on it, and her heart immediately rippled slightly. The white walls and clear water, the stone arch bridge in the distance, are clearly on the Pingjiang River in Suzhou. She was originally from Gusu, and when her father did not serve as a salt patrol in his early years, every time he was in Shangyuan, he would take himself and his mother to take a small boat on this Pingjiang River to swim comfortably.

Recalling her childhood, Daiyu couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes.

Baoyu on the side looked at Da Anxious, and hurriedly leaned over and said meaninglessly: "Why is my sister crying when she looks at a fan?" If you make my sister unhappy, you don't want this thing. ”

said that the gun was going to be discarded when it passed through the fan.

"Huh?" Daiyu was annoyed: "Who let you lose my things?" ”

She reached out and snatched it up, and said angrily: "Besides, whether I'm happy or not, what does it have to do with you?" It's always unpleasant for me to be so small, so it's better to find the new sister Bao, she talks like a spring breeze, and it's much better than me. Hmph~"

Daiyu got up, took the fan into the blue yarn cupboard, and immediately ordered: "Zijuan, I'll wash in the room today." ”

Baoyu was dumbfounded, and somehow upset Sister Lin again.

Outside the Rika Temple.

The maid carried the lantern in front of her, and Baochai and Aunt Xue wandered behind her.

There were no outsiders beside her, and the mother and daughter naturally talked about themselves.

"Your aunt should go down, and said that she will help communicate with the eunuch Xia in the palace in the future, whether you can choose it or not, you have to give it a try."

"Hmm." Baochai responded, but thought of Li Weijian, who had never met before. Xue Pan glanced at it from afar before, and he only said that he looked good, but he didn't know what a good method was.

Aunt Xue said again: "Baoyu, you should be more diligent in your dealings." ”

Baochai frowned and said, "Mom, I want to be chosen, and it's always inconvenient to communicate with Brother Bao again, right?" ”

"What is this? My cousin and brother come and go, and he is two years younger than you, so can others chew this tongue? ”

"I see." Baochai is early and smart, where do you not know what her mother's idea is?

However, his father died early, and his brother was a reckless person, and the family's business was not taken care of, and since then it has plummeted. The procurement of the inner government is becoming more and more stringent, and the shopkeeper outside is becoming more and more slippery. It's a pity that Baochai is still a girl who has not left the cabinet, and she can't start even if she wants to cook.

This time, he entered the Beijing division not only to avoid trouble, but also to continue the wealth of the Xue family through Baochai's marriage.

For some reason, Baochai felt a tug in his heart, as if something important had been lost, and he couldn't help coughing a few times with the internal fire.

Aunt Xue hurriedly said, "But the hot poison is committed again?" ”

Baochai endured the burning inside and said, "It's just choking on the cool breeze and coughing twice." ”

"Take two quick steps, then."

The mother and daughter stepped up their steps, and within a moment entered the Lixiang Courtyard. The maid who had her own maid served and took off her coat, so Baochai asked, "Where is my brother?" ”

Ying'er stacked the outer qi and said, "Uncle has eaten too much wine, and he will fall asleep this time." ”

Baochai said in his heart, it's okay, it's impossible to leave and right, it's better to break off his thoughts early.

Ying'er said again: "By the way, the fourth master sent the maid to send an object to the girl, and it was rare, so I took it for the girl to see." ”

Ying'er put the outer fan and took two fans back: "Girl, take a look." ”

Baochai took it, but saw a delicate peony flower painted on the silk fan. Slightly stunned, Baochai turned her head sharply to cover her mouth and coughed.

Ying'er was startled: "The girl is sick, go get the cold incense pill!" ”

Bao Chai pulled out the handkerchief from his cuff, covered his mouth and coughed twice, and his mind crossed the young man who stood on the bow of the boat that night and bent his bow and shot arrows, and then his figure blurred, and it coincided with the figure in his memory...... (Note 1)

………………………………

Early in the morning, it was already the end of the day.

There was a candle flame in the west room, Qingwen was dressed neatly, and opened the door to go to the kitchen to get the food box. Hongyu put the stacked futon into the kang cabinet, turned around and landed, quietly slipped to the door, opened the crack and glanced at the main room.

I saw that it was still dark in the main room, and the sky outside was only dark, and suddenly a touch of red broke into my eyes. I saw Xiu Ying wearing a red jacket and a short fight, holding three willow leaf darts tied with red silk in her hands, and she was calm and calm.

After a while, he heard a shout and a toss, and then he heard three clanging sounds, and Hongyu couldn't help but poke his head out to look, only to see that the target hanging on the wall was in the middle, and three darts were inserted one after another.

Hongyu was shocked and shocked, and thought that this Xiuying was a fool, but where did she think that she was a spicy practitioner! She secretly thought in her heart that she wouldn't dare to exonerate herself easily in the future, otherwise she would not be able to kill herself with a dart.

Just thinking about it, I heard the squeak of the main room, and when I turned my head, I saw Li Weijian, who was also dressed in a short fight, walking out.

Hongyu hurriedly opened the door and greeted him: "Fourth master." ”

Li Weijian smiled and bowed: "I'll practice for a while, and you can just rest." ”

Hongyu smiled: "The four masters are all up, where do I have a reason to rest?" With that, he walked into the main room with a small step, and went to be picked up with Li Weijian.

Li Weijian stretched his muscles, Xiu Ying took the dart and turned around, and said angrily: "Childe, you are late today." ”

"I ate wine yesterday and slept a little heavily. I'll stretch out first, and we'll practice against each other later. ”

"Hmm."

Li Weijian stopped talking, collected his mind, cooperated with his breathing, and slowly stretched his body. Although he went to Maoshan and never learned to cultivate immortals, he also learned some skills. One is the channeling technique that is being performed now, which is called pulling out broken tendons; One is to learn a set of swordsmanship.

I don't know if it's the skill of channeling or the welfare of soul piercing, after a few years of practice, his body is drawn, and his strength far exceeds that of his peers; The swordsmanship, he thought that the sword was not easy to use, so he simply simplified the complexity, and chose thirteen of the styles to turn into a knife technique.

After a set of tendon pulling, Li Weijian's body was already hot, he let out a long breath of turbidity, and said to Xiu Ying, who was watching: "Come on!" ”

Xiu Ying picked up the two wooden knives poked in the corner of the wall and threw one straight at Li Weijian.

Li Weijian took it and played a knife flower, and then put on a posture and approached Xiu Ying. The two had already known each other, and after a little temptation, they were trembling together.

Li Weijian used the style of Yanling knife, but Xiuying used the style of Japanese knife. Li Weijian opened and closed widely, full of momentum, and was unprofitable; Xiu Ying held the knife in both hands to resist, and every time she saw Li Weijian's flaws, she could force her to mess up her posture when she made a move.

From the dawn of the morning to the rising sun, Li Weijian's face was covered with sweat, but Xiu Ying only saw a slight sweat on her forehead.

was forced away by Xiu Ying's move again, Li Weijian gasped with a wooden knife and said, "That's it, that's the end of today." ”

Hongyu, who was waiting in front of the door, hurriedly walked over and handed over the handkerchief: "Fourth master, wipe your sweat quickly." ”

"Excuse me, it's better to wash up."

Hongyu said: "There is hot water boiling in the east chamber, and I will go to fetch water and wait for the fourth master to wash." ”

The courtyard door opened a crack, and Qingwen flashed in with a food box, just in time to see Hongyu's diligence, and even secretly bit her silver teeth.

She walked a few steps quickly and chased Li Weijian into the main room. Li Weijian entered the warm pavilion, and Qingwen took out the same food from the food box.

There are only a few things for breakfast, a stack of rouge goose breast, a stack of bean sprouts, a piece of water chestnut cake, a piece of heterozygous steamed buns, four small buns filled with rock sugar and fat, and a bowl of rice porridge.

As soon as she set it up, Li Weijian walked out of the warm pavilion: "Qingwen is back?" ”

"Well," in response, Qingwen turned around: "Fourth master...... Forehead ......"

Qingwen was so ashamed that she avoided her face, but it was Li Weijian who was naked and walked out wearing only a pair of middle clothes and pants.

The door opened, and Hongyu walked in with a copper basin: "The water is here." ”

Li Weijian said to Qingwen: "I'll wash first." ”

Qingwen took a sip secretly, her heart a little messy. is the age when love is beginning to open, if you see Baoyu's childish figure, it will be fine, and it is the male Li Weijian who is partial to the birth, how can you not make people think about it?

Li Weijian brushed his teeth with tooth powder, scrubbed it again, and then warmed up the pavilion and changed into a green shirt and regular clothes.

With Qingwen here, Hongyu couldn't stay in the room, so she had to grit her teeth and retreat first. Qingwen waited for Li Weijian to dine, and suddenly said, "Isn't the fourth master usually from the beginning?" Why is it too late today? ”

"Well......" Li Weijian took a sip of porridge and said, "If I get up too early, won't you be so tired that you can't sleep enough?" ”

Qingwen's heart warmed, but she said, "Where is it not enough to sleep?" I usually got up before the end of the day. ”

Li Weijian said: "Then when you come to me, you will sleep more, it is the time to grow your body, and you will become stupid if you sleep less." ”

Qingwen immediately pursed her mouth, delicate and lovely. Li Weijian smiled and said, "Okay, you can also go to eat, and then clean up after eating." ”

Qingwen made hot tea for Li Weijian again, and then retreated as she said. Li Weijian looked at the tea and felt strange in his heart, where did he use tea when he ate? Not to mention hurting the stomach, it also delays the intake of iron in ingredients.

After Li Weijian had breakfast and was thinking about when to visit the eldest sister, Hongyu came to report: "Fourth master, the eldest grandmother is here with Brother Lan." ”

Li Weijian hurriedly came out of the door, and saw the eldest sister Li Kun leading a child into the courtyard gate.

Compared with yesterday, Li Kun's face looks much better, but his body is still calm. Seeing Li Weijian, she hurriedly pushed down the child next to her: "Call someone quickly!" ”

Brother Nalan knelt down respectfully like a little adult and saluted: "Jia Lan has seen the fourth uncle!" ”

Li Weijian stepped forward and copied Jia Lan in his arms: "My own family, I don't need to be so polite." Then he said to Li Kun: "I'm thinking about visiting the big sister, and I don't want the big sister to come." ”

Li Kun smiled: "The backyard of the deep house is always difficult for you to come and go." ”

(Note 1: Xue = snow, cold incense pills and rain, dew, frost and snow as an introduction, Baochai said that the hot poison in the womb is really good, and it doesn't matter if you raise your worth.) In the book, Baochai admits that she has read "West Chamber", "Pipa", and "Hundred Kinds of Yuanren", plus she is three years older than Daiyu, and Daiyu in her teens is still in love, not to mention the precocious Baochai. Because of this, secondary processing is done here. ）
