dream of red mansion

Chapter 68

"Why didn't you see Sister Lin?"

Waiting for Jiamu to deal out the cards slowly, Jia Qing asked Tanchun who was sitting next to him.

Jia Baoyu's expression darkened.

Tanchun said: "Sister Lin is not very healthy today, she is raising her in the house."

Jia Qing glanced at Jia Baoyu, who had a gloomy complexion, and then at Jia Mu, who seemed to have heard nothing, said "Oh" softly, didn't ask any more questions, and concentrated on playing cards.

"Well, second brother, can you lend me some more money?"

An hour later, Jia Baoyu, who once again lost all his gambling money on the table, said to Jia Qing with a blushing face.

Jia Qing frowned first, then "reluctantly" counted out fifty money from the pile in front of him and gave it to him.One side said: "It stands to reason that there are no brothers on the poker table! I shouldn't have borrowed money from you, Second Brother Bao. It's just the first time Brother Bao asked, so I can't refuse. Remember to pay me back!"

Jia Baoyu didn't have the habit of bringing money with him, so he asked Xiren to go back to the house and took a sling of money.I thought that if I paid ten Wen, one thousand Wen should be enough.Unexpectedly, within half an hour, the thousand papers would be sold out.

After that, it was not easy to ask Xiren to go back to get it. I borrowed half a penny from Jia Mu and vowed to get it back...

No, I didn't get it back, and I lost it all.

I don't have the face to borrow it from Jia Mu again, so I only blushed to borrow it from Jia Qing.Who would have thought that Jia Qing would just "taunt" him by making excuses like this.

Xu couldn't bear Jia Baoyu being bullied like this, so Mother Jia waved her hands and said, "Okay, after playing with you for so long, I'm tired too. If you want to be a little swayed, you can go somewhere else for a while."

So few people bid farewell to Jia Mu and came out of the house.

"Where did the second brother come from first?"

As soon as he went out, Tanchun asked.

Jia Qing replied: "Because I promised to buy a set of painting tools for the fourth sister, I went to the fourth sister's yard first. If I couldn't find it, I came to Rongqingtang."

There was nothing wrong with the left and right, Jia Baoyu said casually, "Why don't we go and see what the second brother bought for the fourth sister?"

Tanchun and Yingchun both nodded in agreement.In this way, the sisters and brothers walked to Xichun's courtyard accompanied by several maidservants.

After entering the door, Jia Baoyu asked, "Where is the gift you bought?"

Jia Qing turned his head to look at the color screen facing him and others.Caiping hurriedly said: "We moved the things sent by the second master to the inner room, second master Bao, wait a moment." He said and called Cai'er behind to go to the inner room together.

After a while, the two of them came out carrying a box.Tanchun asked curiously, "What did the second elder brother buy and put it in such a big box?"

After the two carefully placed the box on the ground, Xichun immediately ran forward.Although Jia Qing gave her a lot of gifts, she was very satisfied with every gift before, and I believe her brother will not let her down this time.

When Jia Qing opened the box, everyone was surprised by the exquisite things inside.This doesn't look like a set of painting tools, but it looks like a painting shop has been robbed.

There are no less than [-] to [-] various types of pens, dyeing pens, coloring pens, etc. hanging horizontally or hanging on the four sides of the box.The bottom is separated by a grid, bottled, bagged, and block-shaped various dye powders, and there are no less than ten various mortars, bowls, plates, and spoons...

Jia Baoyu was dumbfounded: "How can I draw a picture with so many tools? Today can be regarded as a long-term vision."

"I've only seen a complete set of this painting set in my wife's room, but there are not so many styles... Do you know all the things in it, second brother?"

Tanchun looked at it for a while and asked.

Jia Qing shook his head and said: "I also heard from the boss there, and I bought whatever he said was useful. Anyway, I am also a layman."

Only then did Tanchun feel relieved, and then said: "Second brother doesn't use his silver like this, he should use it for serious business."

"It doesn't cost a lot of money..."

Jia Qing knew that compared to Jia Baoyu's ignorance of world affairs, Tanchun had his own views on these "mundane affairs".But she is a woman, and if she wants to realize her talent in this area, it is estimated that she will have to wait until she gets married.

The Jia Mansion could not give her this platform.

Although Xiao Xichun didn't understand it, she just liked the things in it, because it was given to him by her brother.A person squatted there alone, picking up this to see for a while, and picking up that for a while to see.

After Jia Baoyu and the others took a few glances, they lost interest and walked aside to talk.Seeing this, Jia Qing stepped forward and hugged Xichun, and said to Ruhua next to him, "You girls are still young, so you are responsible for keeping these things. When you need to use them, you have to keep them aside. There are some things here that you need to use." Still have to be careful. Do you understand?"

Ru Hua quickly nodded to show that he understood.On the contrary, Xichun was very dissatisfied with Jia Qing's treating her as a child who needs to be taken care of, so she twitched her little nose.Suddenly, with another force, he wrapped his arms around Jia Qing's neck, rested his head on his shoulder, and fell asleep.

Although Jia Qing was much bigger than Xichun, it was a bit difficult to hold her like this, so she found a chair and sat down.Looking at Tanchun who was talking to Jia Baoyu, recalling Peifeng's words last night, he asked, "Is there something wrong with the third sister recently?"

Tan Chun, who was busy talking, was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked, "What does Second Brother mean by this?"

"I don't mean anything else, I just think that we brothers and sisters often play together, and we should be closer than ordinary brothers and sisters... If there is something that doesn't go well with each other, we should talk about it. Let's count together , maybe it can be solved or not. What does the third sister think?"

When Tanchun heard it, he knew that Jia Qing must have known about his situation during this period of time, and felt a little embarrassed for a while.

Then it turned into a faint warmth.The second brother knew about this, but he didn't say that he wanted to help him like Bao's second brother.Not to mention pretending not to know anything like the others, although he also wanted to help himself, but in every word, he left room and face for himself...why isn't it touching?

But she knew clearly that although the second elder brother didn't seem to be short of money, at most it was just a temporary emergency.Even if I gave my aunt 20 taels of silver this time, she might be satisfied for a while.Once she felt that her money was a little tight, she kept it in front of her and came to "begging" again, maybe she would make more progress and make it worse!

In the end, it wasn't her mother and daughter who were ridiculed?Now if she wants to make a fuss, she can make a fuss, anyway, if she just ignores it, she will not have the interest to stop after all.In this life, she was born her daughter, destined to be inseparable, and she can still bear this grievance.

She only hoped that one day, my aunt would "enlighten herself" and truly look like a noble lady, that would be the greatest blessing to her.

"What the second brother said is that everything is fine here, little sister, and there is nothing wrong with it..."

Before Tanchun finished talking, Jia Baoyu couldn't help it, and interjected: "Third sister, tell the truth. Now that the second brother is here, he can definitely help you solve this matter."

Jia Qing also meant the same thing, at least I got rid of Aunt Zhao first and then...

But looking at Tanchun's reddish eyes and the stubbornness on his face with handsome eyes and sculpted eyebrows, Jia Qing put back what he hadn't said, and stopped Jia Baoyu from continuing to speak with his eyes.

Perhaps, Tanchun's strength and ability are slowly formed in these things!

He has no right to make decisions for her!No one has the right to make decisions for others!
　I am the master of my life!

　　This is a portrayal of my current mood.The interview didn't go well, so I went back to the hotel to code...

　　The tutor can decide whether I can study, but can't decide whether my life is good or bad!There are too many roads to go in life, if this one doesn't work, just change to another one.

　　I originally thought that I would not go to the professional class written test tomorrow afternoon.Thinking about it again, traveling thousands of miles and not completing a set of procedures, it would be a bit decadent!I am also sorry for the expectations of my parents.It's better to finish it, it can be regarded as a beginning and an end.

　　Don't mind me grumbling a little bit.
