Beating drums and passing flowers is the most common drinking game played during festivals in the Jia family.
It is also one of the best drinks to stir up the atmosphere.
As the drums start to sound, everyone starts to pass the flowers one by one. They are all afraid that the flowers will be left in their hands when the drums stop, so they often pass the flowers very quickly.
Drummers can use their skills to play the drums tightly or slowly, intermittently, and sometimes stop, making it elusive and creating an extraordinarily tense atmosphere for those who play the game.
The lively Qingwen took the initiative to play the role of drummer.
This little girl was born with beauty, but now she has been carefully raised by Jia Lian for two years, and she has become more and more beautiful.
She was wearing bright red exquisitely embroidered shoes, a brand-new pleated water-patterned skirt, and a goose-yellow light-patterned vest. She walked confidently and briskly to the big drum that the women had brought out, and pointed at it. Looking back at her masters and grandmothers, they smiled sweetly, looking both clever and generous.
Even Jia's mother couldn't help but sigh when she saw him: "It shows that I gave this person to the right person at the beginning. You two really did not waste this child in vain. He has been raised like this."
Wang Xifeng, who was at the end of the table, laughed when she heard this and said: "My ancestors don't know that she is more of a master than a master in our courtyard. Even I dare not take care of her.
There is no girl or woman in this courtyard who has not been scolded by her..."
Everyone else's eyes were also sharp, and they were all amazed by Qingwen's appearance, who had been carefully dressed today.
The most obvious one is Jia Baoyu, whose eyes are almost printed in that direction.
Especially when he saw Qingwen smiling shyly because of Wang Xifeng's words, she was even more stunned, her mouth slightly open, dull and dull.
Daiyu was right next to him, and she couldn't help but sneer when she saw this. .
Only then did Jia Baoyu come back to his senses and quickly wiped his chin. Fortunately, the time was short and the saliva had not yet flowed down the corners of his mouth.
Jia Mu and others knew that Wang Xifeng was joking, so they didn't take it too seriously.
For a while, the maids covered Qingwen's eyes with ribbons, and Wang Xifeng personally broke off a spring plum from the flowerpot on the side and presented it to Jia Mu. Our ancestors are happy with spring!"
While speaking, he deliberately raised the plum blossoms over Jia Mu's eyes.
Everyone also laughed. Chunxi's brows are so elegant that the wine order beats drums to spread plum blossoms. It comes from the joke of literati and elegant guests who use plum blossoms to connect their eyebrows.
Jia Mu happily took the plum blossoms and pretended to give them to Wang Xifeng. She was so frightened that she quickly ran back to the seat, made a begging look, and then sat down.
When the drum sounds, starting from Jia Mu, the plum blossoms are passed to Aunt Xue, and then passed down in sequence, and finally passed to Jia Lian's hands, and the cycle repeats.
Qingwen is a bold and narrow-minded person. When she heard the sound of the host and grandmothers at the table hurriedly passing flowers, she beat the drum more and more, sometimes slowly and sometimes urgently, as if she might stop at any time, but she didn't stop for a long time.
Xiaohong and other maids also gathered around her, watching the fun happily.
Wang Xifeng saw Jia Mu's excitement and hurriedly sent them to Aunt Xue after getting the plum blossoms, so she wanted to promote narrowness and winked at Xiaohong and others.
Xiaohong understood and hurriedly whispered a few words into Qingwen's ear. Seeing Qingwen nodding, when the plum blossoms were passed to Jia Mu's hands again, she yanked Qingwen's sleeve and the drum sound stopped suddenly.
Jia Mu also wanted to force the plum blossoms to Aunt Xue, but Aunt Xue refused to accept them and pushed her hands: "Old lady, this is yours."
Jia Mu turned around and wanted to give it to Jia Lian, but Jia Lian smiled and said nothing.
Knowing that she couldn't rely on him, Jia Mu smiled and said: "This wine is delicious, but this joke and story are difficult to tell."
As she said that, she glanced at the grandchildren and saw that they were all waiting for her with great interest, so she took a sip of wine and said:
"Then just say anything...
A family raised ten sons and married ten daughters-in-law. Only the tenth daughter-in-law was the smartest, clever and well-spoken, and the favorite of her parents-in-law. The family often said those nine were unfilial.
The nine daughters-in-law felt aggrieved in their hearts and discussed: "We are really filial, but we are not as clever as that little hoof and mouth. When my parents-in-law are old, they only say good things about her. To whom should I report this grievance?" '"
Jia's mother has been rich and honored all her life, and her ability to tell jokes is quite good, with a sense of rhythm.
Although it was just the beginning, it had already attracted everyone's attention, and everyone was curious about what the nine wives would do.
"The eldest daughter-in-law had an idea and said: 'Let's go to the Temple of the King of Hell tomorrow to burn incense, talk to the Lord of the Lord, and ask him why we are called the trustees. Why do we only give that little hoof a good mouth? We are all stupid. .’ Everyone liked it and said it was a good idea.
The next day they all went to the Temple of the King of Hell to burn incense, and all nine of them fell asleep under the altar table..."
Everyone cheered up, knowing that the preparation was almost complete, and the laughter was probably about to come.
"The nine souls were waiting for the King of Hell to arrive. They didn't come when they were waiting on the left, and they didn't come when they were waiting on the right. Just when they were anxious, they saw Sun Xingzhe coming on a somersault cloud. When he saw the nine souls, he wanted to beat him with a golden cudgel, frightening nine of them. Hun hurriedly knelt down and begged.
Sun Xingzhe asked the reason, and the nine souls hurriedly told him in detail.
After hearing this, Sun Xingzhe stamped his foot and sighed: "It's a good thing you met me. When the King of Hell comes, he won't know." '
After hearing this, the nine people begged, "May the Great Sage show mercy and give us some guidance!" '
Sun Xingzhe smiled and said: "This is not difficult." That day when your sisters-in-law were giving birth to ten children, it happened that I went to the King of Hell and urinated on the ground, so your sister-in-law ate it. Now you have to be smart and talk well. If there is plenty of urine, just soak it in and eat it. '"
After Jia Mu finished speaking, everyone in the courtyard laughed.
At that time, people rarely listened to jokes and their laugh points were low. Although Jia Mu's joke was a bit vulgar, it was really funny when she told it from her mouth.
Moreover, the meaning of this joke is a bit unusual...
Everyone looked at Wang Xifeng.
It couldn't be more obvious for those of you here who have the status of "little daughter-in-law", are "clever and sweet-tongued", and are loved by Mother Jia.

Wang Xifeng didn't seem to hear it at all, and laughed loudly and said: "Fortunately, we are all clumsy mouthed, otherwise, we would all have eaten monkey urine."
The story of Tang Monk and his disciples traveling to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures has been widely circulated among the people since the founding of the People's Republic of China. It is also told in many classic operas, so even Wang Xifeng knew that Sun Xingzhe was a monkey.
Everyone laughed when they saw that Wang Xifeng was still quibbling "on the verge of death."
You and Wang Xifeng are both daughters-in-law of the Jia family, and they are not far apart in age. They often interact with each other and often make fun of each other.
How could You be so polite at this time? He took over Wang Xifeng's words with a smile, "Who among us has eaten that monkey urine? Don't pretend to be okay."
Wang Xifeng couldn't hold herself any longer, so she reached out and hit Youshi.
Such an inability to argue made Daiyu and others cover their mouths and laugh. They all remembered that every time Sister-in-law Lian used to joke and joke to please Mother Jia, Mother Jia would often call her "Monkey". This was not entirely true, exactly!
Even Aunt Xue couldn't help but come out to praise: "Jokes are not good or bad, as long as they fit the occasion, they will make people laugh."
"Aunt~~"
Wang Xifeng twisted on the spot and acted coquettishly from afar.
Jia Baoyu was a little stunned again. He had never seen Sister-in-law Lian acting coquettishly like a fairy concubine!
Glancing at Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu's eyes were full of envy.
