After some refusals, Miaoyu said nothing more. Baoqin still chose Rose Garden, but Hongxiangyuan was indeed bigger, and Miaoyu didn't like it here either. In addition, she herself was still a little undecided, so Didn’t mention it any more.
The group came out of Hongxiang Garden, passed the more simple and elegant Yuyin Hall, walked along the stream, and arrived at Liao Fengxuan where the green hills are located.
This is the intersection of the four courtyards of Nuanxiangwu, Daoxiang Village, Ouxiang Pavilion, and Luxueguang. To the northeast is Nuanxiangwu of Xichun, to the northwest is Li Wan's Daoxiang Village, and to the southeast is Xiangyun's Ouxiang Pavilion. A little further to the southwest is Lu Xuegang of Xiuyan.
"Should we go to the Fourth Sister first or to the Sister-in-law Zhu?" I heard from Third Sister and Sister Lin.”
"Then let's go and see the fourth sister. Sister-in-law Zhu can see her in the evening." Baochai glanced at Miaoyu and said, "Sister Miaoyu, why don't we have dinner together in the evening? It would be a good time to join in the fun."
Miaoyu shook her head categorically. She knew that the second wife of the Xue family had just come, and the female relatives of the Jia family would definitely have to meet and receive them, but what was the point of going by herself?
Baochai doesn't think too much of herself and doesn't force herself.
Miaoyu herself has a cool and aloof temperament, and is not very gregarious. It is probably because Xiuyan and her sister grew up together that they can get along so well. Even Daiyu seems to have no relationship with her sister. Xiuyan and Miaoyu have nothing to do with each other. So close.
When they arrived at Nuanxiangwu, Xichun was not there. When I asked the little girl, I only knew that Xichun might have gone to Xiangyun or Tanchun. The group went to Ouxiang Pavilion. As expected, Xiangyun was not there either, and then went to Qiu Shuangzhai. , only then did I see that Xiaocui Hall was very lively, Tanchun, Xichun, Yingchun, Daiyu and Xiangyun were all there.
Seeing the girls approaching, Xiangyun was the first to shout, "Sister Bao, I happened to let someone go to your side, but I didn't expect you guys to come. I'm afraid Sister Xiuyan and Sister Miaoyu just came back from outside, right?" When I asked people to knock on Lu Xuegang's door earlier, Zhuan'er said that you had gone out. Hey, who is this sister? Talents are elite, and they forget the customs when they see them..."
Xiangyun's words made all the girls laugh. This girl has always been like this, straightforward and likeable.
Faced with this situation, Xue Baoqin didn't have any stage fright. He took the initiative to step forward and salute: "Sisters and sisters, my little sister Xue Baoqin has just come to the capital from Jinling. Have you met the sisters? It's your first time here. Please take care of my little sister..." "
In fact, these girls all know that this is Baochai's cousin Baoqin. A few days ago, Baochai told everyone that her cousin was coming to the capital? She also said that her cousin was ten times more talented than her? Even if it was a bit exaggerated? But it also shows how good this girl Baoqin is? So everyone wants to see the second girl of the Xue family.
When I took a look today, I saw that it was really extraordinary. The heroic and charming features between the brows were perfectly blended. It was also a bit smart and nimble, with the style of Baochai and Tanchun.
All the girls came forward to hold hands and exchange greetings, but they did not neglect Miaoyu who came with Xiuyan.
Daiyu came to Miaoyu early, talked to Miaoyu, and urged Miaoyu to move into the garden as soon as possible.
To say that Miaoyu has no nostalgia for such excitement? That would be a lie. After all, she is a young girl. Even though she lived in Buddhism with her master since she was a child, her nature cannot be suppressed.
Moreover, Daiyu and she are sisters, Xiuyan and her have been playmates since childhood, and Tanchun and Xiangyun have also experienced living together in Yangzhou with her, so they are all quite harmonious.
The tea and fruits were all brought here from Tan Chun Qiu Shuang Zhai. Everyone was very happy, talking and being very affectionate.
"It's time to call Sister Feng and Sister-in-law Zhu, so that everyone in our house will be here." I don't know who suddenly said such a sentence, and the scene was a little cold.
A group of people looked at each other and then noticed that it was Daiyu who said this. Xiangyun frowned slightly, "Then you can also call Brother Bao. Well, if Brother Feng is free, you can actually call him..."
Daiyu's face turned slightly red.
She suggested calling Wang Xifeng because she thought that Wang Xifeng had always treated her very well in the past, and he always thought of giving her all kinds of things first. Of course there were ancestors here, but when people did this, she had to recognize it. part of your heart.
Nowadays, people are wandering around in the house. Even though they have little to do with me as a sojourner, I think that Sister Feng and Brother Lian have reconciled and divorced. They haven’t seen anyone for a while. It is said that they have been in poor health at home. I guess It must be a mental illness. If you can invite the other party out, it would be a good time to relax.
I just didn't expect that this girl Xiangyun would implicat Baoyu and Brother Feng again in one sentence.
Baoyu was fine now and didn't bother her much anymore. It was said that she was obsessed with writing legendary novels and plays all day long. It didn't matter if she came or not. But when Brother Feng was coming, Daiyu glanced at Baochai subconsciously.
Baochai also immediately felt Daiyu's glance. Feng Lang told Daiyu about it. Of course, no one else knew about it, but both of them had a tacit understanding. Until the last moment of the unveiling, Baochai was convinced. She didn't dare to make it clear, but if Feng Lang could come, she would naturally be happy in her heart.
"Sister Feng, hey..." Tan Chun sighed.
The second sister-in-law and the second brother Lian have divorced, so logically she shouldn't call her second sister-in-law, but she has become accustomed to calling them second sister-in-law over the years, and Wang Xifeng treats these girls very well and is very protective of them. Their hearts are full of flesh. Daiyu is like this, so why not Tanchun?
Her biological mother is Aunt Zhao, which means she is the daughter of a concubine. Mrs. Wang has a cold temperament. Except for Baoyu, it is difficult for her biological eldest grandson Jia Lan to get Mrs. Wang's attention.
Although Sister-in-law Zhu doesn't say it on the surface, she is resentful in her heart. Not to mention how much good looks can she and Brother Huan get from concubines like her and Brother Huan?
No wonder Brother Huan is extremely disgusted with everything in the house. He has long promised that once he succeeds in the exam, he will move out. If he doesn't enter the Jia's house, he will have nothing to do with anything in the Jia's house from now on. He will even take Aunt Zhao into his house. Of course, I can only say this. It is impossible for Aunt Zhao to follow Brother Huan.
Fortunately, after Wang Xifeng took charge of the family, he never treated concubine daughters like himself and Yingchun coldly. He always cared about everything that was good, and there was never a shortage of what should be distributed or provided, only more. , so whether it’s Tanchun, Yingchun, Daiyu, or Xiangyun, we all know it well.
Now Sister Feng and Brother Lian have reconciled. It is said that Brother Lian is going to Yangzhou soon, but he may not come back in a few years.
Although the ancestors and wives scolded Brother Lian, women could not interfere in this matter.
What's more, Tanchun can also see that the ancestors are probably just scolding them on the surface, and the eldest master and his wife are probably secretly still supporting them. If Brother Lian really wants to be reassured, there is nothing they can do. After all, Brother Lian and Sister Feng He had no sons, but he did not take any concubines for his second brother Lian. This would be criticized everywhere.
It's just that this kind of thing has nothing to do with any of them. Sister Feng treats them very well, so they have to remember her feelings.
"I'm afraid that Sister Feng doesn't want to come. During this period, I heard from Sister Ping'er that Sister Feng doesn't even want to go out." Shi Xiangyun also answered, "Brother Lian did a bad job in this matter. It's Sister Feng who He didn't give birth to a son or take any concubines for him. He could tell the two masters and his ancestors, and naturally the ancestors and masters would make arrangements for him. What does this have to do with divorce? As the saying goes, a couple can be grateful for a hundred days. How can Sister Hefeng and Sister Qiao do this?"
Shi Xiangyun's words made all the girls silent.
The three springs are all surnamed Jia, and they are all members of the Jia family. Naturally, it is impossible to criticize Jia Lian, and Daiyu and Jia Lian are cousins. Miaoyu, she naturally won't care about such things.
Baochai also felt that it was not easy to talk to him, but Xiangyun said it easily. She walked alone, and it didn't matter if her ancestors were protecting her, but the Xue family still lived in Jia's house, and they themselves My mother and Mrs. Wang are full sisters, and I and Wang Xifeng are cousins. There are so many maids around. If these words get out, I am afraid it will cause some unnecessary disputes.
The scene was a little cold for a while.
Xing Xiuyan was still smart and changed the topic: "Sister Feng is not feeling well, Brother Feng and Brother Bao are also busy people. Madam and the others have their own arrangements for the evening. It is rare to have so many of us at this time... "
"Yes, Brother Feng heard that he will be released as an official. It will be decided in the next few days. I'm afraid he won't have much time to come here." Baochai glanced at Daiyu and then continued.
Sure enough, as soon as this topic came up, it immediately attracted everyone's attention to work, "Brother Feng wants to be sent out to serve as an official? Where to go?"
Tanchun, Xiangyun, Yingchun, Xichun and others were all surprised. Even Xing Xiuyan and Miaoyu were surprised. The maids around them were also whispering.
Uncle Feng has now become an indispensable person in the Jia family. The girls, Second Master Lian, Second Master Bao and even Third Master Huan are all closely related to Uncle Feng. Even the two masters are particularly affectionate towards Uncle Feng. , a bit like becoming the heart and soul of the Master of the Jia Palace.
Uncle Feng is going to serve as an official. Wouldn't it be rare for him to come to Jia's house for many years? What should we do if there is any difficulty in the house?
"Sister Bao, where did you get this letter? Didn't Brother Feng do a good job in the Hanlin Academy? It is only natural that he no longer needs to stay in the Hanlin Academy and just follow the example of the master and serve in the Sixth Department. Ah." Tanchun was a little anxious at first, "Isn't it true that only officials with poor performance will go out?"
