dream of red mansion

Chapter 508 On the Rewards for Deeds
"Oh! You stop!"

"Hahaha, come and chase me..."

Zijuan stood under the courtyard wall in the northwest corner, and together with Xiangling, she put a quilt on the pole, and looked back with a smile at the maids who were laughing and playing around the flower bed in the courtyard.

"Xueyan, stop quickly and let me wipe it off, or let me catch you and look good..."

"You catch me and talk about it, hee hee."

"Damn it, little Shuang'er, don't you know martial arts? Help me catch her, sister has something good for you!"

Xiao Shuang'er, who was also smiling at first, suddenly hesitated.Qingwen is the "big celebrity" in front of her big brother, do you want to help her...

"Oh, good stuff? I don't know if it counts if I caught it for you."

Jia Qing walked over from the veranda, heard the words and grabbed the proud girl Xueyan, and said to Qingwen.

All the servant girls found out about Jia Qing, they were stunned for a moment and bowed down to say hello.

Qingwen was not polite, she stepped forward two steps and said: "It's not counting, I told Xiao Shuang'er."

Jia Qing tightly tightened the maid who was restrained by him in his arms, and after she stopped moving with threatening eyes, she raised her head and said: "It's really not counted, then I will let her go. Don’t blame me if you can’t catch anyone.”

"no!"

Qingwen flew forward, grabbed Xueyan's collar with one hand, and raised her right hand quickly, leaving a light green mark on Xueyan's face, probably something like the juice of a flower stem.

After Qingwen succeeded in revenge, she cast a smug look at Jia Qing.

But Jia Qing also seemed to be shocked by her cheating, she lowered her head in a daze, and said after a long while: "It's pretty, it's red."

"What red? It's obviously green, okay?"

Qingwen was puzzled, could it be that Jia Qing was colorblind?

Only Xueyan, after being stunned for a while, her face flushed, she pushed Jia Qing away, and ran away covering her face.

Qingwen hurried forward to support Jia Qing, wondering: "What's wrong with Xueyan?"

In Qingwen's heart, although Xueyan was a little dumbfounded, she was definitely not stupid. How dare she push Jia Qing in public?
Jia Qing didn't care and said: "It's okay, I guess I'm busy going back to the house to wash my face." Then, without giving Qingwen time to think, she glanced at the maids, then at Xiao Shuang'er, and walked forward .

"Second master, the girl is reading on the left porch."

Jia Qing, who was about to enter the room, paused, turned her head and nodded to Qingwen, and turned to go to the corridor.

"The season is about to be dusk, boring and leaning on the door alone..."

Daiyu sat alone on the wooden railing chair, holding a book in her hand, feeling infinitely melancholy.Then I heard a voice in front of me:
"Weak willows support the wind and raise their coats suspiciously, Cong Lan's dew is like a towel. Sitting alone is also full of frowns."

Looking up hurriedly, I saw Jia Qing walking from the end of the corridor, the melancholy in his eyes disappeared immediately, and he was full of joy: "Second brother..."

"Ah."

Jia Qing came over, sat next to her, and asked with a smile: "The maids are all playing in front, why did you come here alone?"

Daiyu shook her head: "They are all too noisy."

Jia Qing laughed immediately, he knew that Daiyu was quiet and didn't like to move, but if she was really left alone, she would be sad again... This is a kind of contradictory psychology, and Jia Qing can't release it.

Daiyu said, "What are you laughing at?"

She thought Jia Qing was laughing at her.

Jia Qing even said: "It's nothing, by the way, my sister's health is much better, so, later I will take my sister to the mansion over there to see the ancestors!"

After hearing this, Daiyu's eyes obviously moved, but for some reason, after hesitating for two seconds, she said, "I, I'm not well..."

Jia Qing was stunned, and looked at her up and down. Under her dodging eyes, Jia Qing really smiled this time: "My good sister, don't worry, go now, I guarantee that the old ancestor will not mention you moving again." It's time to go back."

Daiyu blushed slightly, but still questioned: "Really?"

"real."

After confirming this point, Daiyu stopped hesitating immediately, stood up from the chair, and said, "Okay, just go and see Sister Xiangyun."

……

"Second Master is here..."

"Miss Lin is here too..."

In Rongqing Hall, as Jia Qing and Daiyu's sedan chairs entered the mansion, there was the sound of servant girls rushing to report.

Jia Qing took Daiyu, surrounded by several servant girls, and walked into Rongqing Hall, Jiamu's residence.

"You're still willing to come, I thought you made a fortune outside, and you didn't recognize me as an old woman long ago!"

Just after entering the hall, before he had time to say hello, Jia Qing heard what Jia's mother said.

Jia Qing smiled, but Daiyu became nervous. She shook off Jia Qing's hand and said to Jia's mother, "Is it my granddaughter? I should have come to see my grandmother..."

A nervous and aggrieved look.

When Jia's mother saw her, her heart ached immediately, and she immediately said, "Yu'er, hurry up and come over to grandma to have a look... I didn't mean you just now, you are not in good health, you should take care of yourself."

Only then did Daiyu laugh, and walked to Jiamu's side, and was hugged and caressed by Jiamu.

Jia Qing said: "Look at the meaning of the old ancestor's words, are you talking about me?"

Jia Mu was immediately happy: "If you don't tell me, who are you talking about?"

Jia Qing also laughed.In fact, because Jia Qing is in charge of the Ningguo Mansion and is not an idler, Jia's mother has repeatedly told Jia Qing not to come here to pay his respects.This is also an expression of her kindness.

Of course, Jia Qing would not use this as a reason to refute, but said: "Old ancestor, you are wrong. In the past, your grandson ran towards you every day. You thought your grandson was not stable enough and made a fuss! You chased your grandson away like a fly. Son, let's go! Grandson is wronged, and he didn't dare to disobey the old ancestor's words, so he specially invited a gentleman in the mansion to teach the grandson some mature and stable ways, so as not to make the old ancestor angry again!
Today, I just felt a little better, so I hurriedly brought my ancestor's favorite darling over here... Take a look, is my grandson much more stable than before? "

After finishing speaking, Jia Qing turned his body to the left and right.

Mother Jia waited to laugh, but naturally she didn't care.

"Second brother..."

Seeing that Jia's mother had finished her questioning, Xiangyun ran forward and dragged Jia Qing to the side to talk.

The sisters next to her also came up to greet her. Jia Qing smiled and returned the gift one by one.Among them, Xiangyun talked the most and was the most reckless. Without saying a few words, he would drag Jia Qing and Yingchun Tanchun to the cubicle to play cards...

"Sister Yun, wait a moment..." Jia Qing said.

After hearing this, Xiangyun thought that Jia Qing had something more to say, so he let go of his hand.

Then, I heard Jia's mother above say to Daiyu: "Yu'er, grandma sees that your illness is much better. You always live with brother Qing. He is careless and has many things. I'm afraid he won't take good care of you. It’s better to move back here, I’m more at ease.”

Daiyu was startled, and subconsciously looked at Jia Qing.

Jia Qing smiled and gave her a reassuring look.

So Daiyu said: "Granddaughter, but according to grandmother's arrangement..."

There are still some chugs in my heart.

Jia Qing looked around at the people in the hall. Coincidentally, most of them were gathered together. Even Xue Baochai, who hadn’t seen him for a long time, accompanied Aunt Xue, sitting quietly under Jia’s mother’s hand, knowing that it was time for him to speak. up.

"Ancestor..."

Flicking his sleeves, Jia Qing stood up two steps and was about to speak when suddenly Mrs. Wang's maid, Jin Chuan, came in and said to Jia's mother, "Old lady, the master asks Second Master Bao to go out and give a lecture."

"Admonition? What are you admonishing?" Mother Jia was a little unhappy.Isn't this clearly trying to embarrass his Baoyu?

"If you have anything to say, tell him to come in and say it!"

Only then did Jin Chuan realize that he had made a "wrong" message and should not be so honest... The matter has come to this point, so he has no choice but to bow down and accept his orders and return.

"Don't be afraid, Baoyu, I'm here, let's see how he dares to punish you!" Seeing the panic on Jia Baoyu's face, Jia's mother comforted her.Then, in order to divert Jia Baoyu's attention, he asked Jia Qing, "What did you want to say just now?"

Jia Qing said with a smile: "Originally there was something to say, but since you have invited the master to see me now, my ancestor, I'd better wait for the master to come in and talk about it in person."

"Nonsense, you don't have to worry about the emperor's father hitting you if you don't have an audience!"

Mother Jia scolded, but she was also thinking about it. It seems that something is really wrong.But Jia Qing didn't say anything, and she didn't force her to ask. She would know when Jia Zheng came in. She still had this patience.

On the contrary, Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Qing in surprise. She never expected that Jia Qing would know about this so early...

Jia Qing also saw Jia Baoyu's fidgeting, and felt that it would take a while for Jia Zheng to come in, so he picked up a topic and said to Jia Baoyu, "I heard that Second Brother Bao likes the scenery in the garden very much, and often recites Seeing the master sneaking into the garden to play happily, I would like to ask Brother Bao for an opinion. Which one or which places in the garden are good for Brother Bao? It is best to come out after waiting... This is the end of the mother-in-law's family visit, and it's time to judge meritorious deeds, I know that second brother Bao has elegant taste and unique eyesight, so I want to learn from second brother Bao."

Jia Baoyu was embarrassed, what do you mean by "sneaking behind the master's back"?This is obviously not a good word!However, when he heard that Jia Qing was actually asking him for advice later on, he felt proud again, and said bluntly: "In terms of all places in the garden, the best is of course the palace of the empress, which is the main hall. It is resplendent inside, and dragons and phoenixes dance outside. ...

However, my favorites are Fenglaiyi and Yihongkuailu. Fenglaiyi is quiet and beautiful, and Yihongkuaigreen is rich and gentle. These two places are the best places in the whole garden. In addition, Huan Geshanzhuang, Hengzhi Qingfen, Qiushuang Study Room are also very good, and Zilingzhou and Ouxiang Pavilion are also very good..."
