Love in the Red Chamber

Chapter 177 Jingui is free and full of love, the palace tailor looks shy and shy

This nerd!
Qin Zhong urgently grabbed Xue Pan and told him not to talk nonsense. "Brother's words spread to the house, and it should make my aunt and sister angry again."

"You raised someone outside, why are your mother and sister so upset?" Xue Pan didn't turn around, but raised his brows and looked at Qin Zhong coldly. "Ms. Whale can't..."

What the fuck? !
Qin Zhong hurriedly pressed Xue Pan's hand, and said in a hurry: "Brother, what are you thinking about? I went to the mansion of Mr. Xu's servant early in the morning, everyone knows it. What I said just now is that the elder brother is out for fun and doesn't return at night. Let Auntie and Sister Bao know that I should look for you."

Xue Pan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking: "It's not just that Jing Qing has something to do with his sister.Now that Jingqing has a marriage contract with Baoyu's third younger sister, she will tell her to stay away from him in the future.To save the Jia family from spreading gossip, making people look down on my sister. '

"It's at the mansion of Old Minister Xu. Why didn't Jingqing say it earlier, I just came back from Nancheng. Hehe, Jingqing must be going to Rongfu to answer uncle, so I won't invite you to my side today. "

Xue Pan blocked the entrance of the alley, and only wanted Qin Zhong to enter the Rongguo Mansion through the small gate at the back of the Rongguo Mansion.

Qin Zhong's expression was slightly strange, "Second Master doesn't care about these things. It was Sister Bao's idea to go to Xu's house today, and it's time to let Sister Bao know the situation when I come back."

Xue Pan's eyes were wide open, and he looked at Qin Zhong with extra vigilance, and it took him a long time to change his face.Said: "So that's the case. My sister really likes to worry about others. Since it's a coincidence, let's go in together. I also ask Jingqing to keep the secret for my brother. Don't tell my mother and sister that I raised a brother in Nancheng. "

Chidi?

What a flower!

Qin Zhong is not surprised now.What kind of Qidi, actor, and male waiter, the more you see it, the numb feeling you used to hear when you hear it.He took a deep look at Xue Pan, and said with a strange look: "I remember that Brother Pan also recognized a few puppet brothers in the righteous school, why did he go to Nancheng to play again?"

Xue Pan pursed his lips, as if he didn't want to talk about it, he just said: "Everyone is worried that if I leave Beijing, they will lose gold and silver in the future."

Sure enough, Qian Bo won the hearts of the people.

Qin Zhong smiled wryly, seeing that Xue Pan still had a vigilant expression on his face, and felt even more speechless.

Am I the kind of bastard who steals someone's sister?It's too underestimated our noble character.

He secretly sighed shamelessly, and accompanied Xue Pan into the alley between Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion, where the gate of Lixiangyuan is located.After entering the Pear Fragrance Court, Qin Zhong accompanied Xue Pan to see Aunt Xue first.

Aunt Xue's demeanor is slightly plump and gentle.He was also happy to see the two of them coming in, and wanted to keep Qin Zhong here for lunch.

Qin Zhongdao: "I'm afraid it won't work today, I have to go back to Qin's house in the afternoon. After the new year is over, I will bring my sister to my aunt's place for dinner."

Aunt Xue knew that the brothers and sisters of the Qin family had been in the city for a few days, so she didn't force them to stay, let alone cared.

Xue Pan felt melancholy when he heard this.Although he didn't want Qin Zhong to be in constant contact with his sister, he wanted to spend more time with Qin Zhong.Now Jia Rong is still in Tiekan Temple, but I am afraid that he will not be able to play together when he comes back. Feng Ziying and the others also have their own affairs, but he is the only one who is boring.

Even Baoyu seldom comes out to play these days because of the visit of the historian's girl.

"In two days, I will pay a visit to your residence." Xue Pan laughed.

Naturally, Qin Zhong would not refuse, so he asked Aunt Xue where Baochai was, and then went to Baochai with Xue Pan.

Baochai seemed to know that Qin Zhong was coming, so she was not surprised to see Qin Zhong, and asked, "Has Mr. Xu ever been happy?"

Qin Zhong said with a smile: "Thanks to my sister's idea. I just came to the door, and the old servant Xu invited Xu Lingtai to entertain him. When I learned that I sent the seeds I picked, I was even more happy."

Xue Baochai didn't care about this, and asked, "What did Jingqing say?"

Qin Zhong replied: "Just as my sister taught, I only said that because I went to the city to visit Jia's family to pay New Year's greetings, I stopped by to visit Mr. Xu. He also said, "Although these seeds are not rare, they are the ones I cultivated by myself in the past few years. harvested, to be selected for the most perfect seeds on the few plants with the best yields.'”

Xue Baochai's eyes glowed, she clapped her hands and said, "That's what you should say."

"It's all taught by my sister, and I want to ask more in the future."

"You just have to come."

Xue Baochai was very interested, and devoted all his attention to Qin Zhong's career, completely ignoring his own brother next to him.He said again: "Qingqing, can you detail the process of cultivating and harvesting, and how many years of painstaking efforts you have made?"

Qin Zhongdao: "I didn't think about this at all. It was the old servant Xu who asked curiously. Maybe he was also curious about how I selected the seeds, so I said in detail: "In the beginning, I picked out the hundreds of the most plump seeds from tens of thousands of seeds. After planting in the spring of that year, people squatted down to take care of them day and night. After germination, they left marks on the side of each plant, recording its growth status every day, regardless of whether it was sunny or rainy. Even fertilization also recorded when each plant was applied , how much fat...'"

Qin Zhong paused, and looked at Xue Baochai with a smile.He added: "I also said: 'One day was the most memorable for me. That day, under the bright sun, the slabs were steaming. In order to observe the growth of these seeds, I squatted in the field under the scorching heat, one by one. Count, how many seeds are in each plant, and how many of them are full, you have to record. I saw a particularly high-yielding plant, and I was fascinated by it. After counting and confirming it several times, it seems that the poisonous yang does not even exist. It's...'"

There was a soft wave in Baochai's eyes, and he said to himself, "Jingqing is so concentrated in his teens. Why worry about the future?"The hard work in the field was an understatement in his mouth.Don't say that a person like Mr. Xu, whoever hears it, should be shocked. '

If you want to ask what it means to be motivated, Jingqing is the most suitable example.

Baochai asked with a smile, "What kind of expression did Old Minister Xu have on his face when he heard that?"

"What else can there be? Naturally, he was so happy and joyful that his eyes lit up. When the end came, he kept pulling me and said that if there was any news, he would send someone to tell me immediately. He also called I'm just waiting for news!"

Qin Zhong laughed twice.In addition to these, this trip to Xu's house also gained a lot of Xu Yuanyi's favorability.

These old seniors like young people who love to do practical things and are willing to endure hardships!

He really didn't expect that the favorability of Xu Yuanyi, the former servant of the household department, broke through 82 and reached [-] all of a sudden.This is all thanks to Xue Baochai!
If Xue Pan hadn't been looking at her face to face, I really wanted to grab Xue Baochai's icy-skinned hands, and then take the opportunity to hug or kiss.

It's a pity that although Xue Pan didn't understand anything, he guarded Xue Baochai like a thief, and Qin Zhong had no chance.After chatting for a while, Xue Pan still had no intention of leaving.

Qin Zhong was helpless, quietly took out a copper thimble from his bosom, and sent it to Xue Baochai with a smile.

"When I came out from Xu's house, I happened to see a shop selling gadgets on the side of the road. I saw the shiny and beautiful gadget on the stall, and thought that my sister was very good at sewing, so I bought it on my own."

Xue Baochai stared at the copper thimble in front of him, slightly startled.

Xue Pan's face changed, and he looked straight at Qin Zhong, as if trying to suppress the urge to eat people.

Baochai took the thimble from Qin Zhong and put it on her middle finger, stretched out her hand to look up and down.The thimble is shaped like a ring and shaped like a board. It is neither tight nor loose when worn on the finger. One side is a thousand nests of small holes, and the other side is peony blossoms. "Jingqing bought it coincidentally, and it just works."

Could it be just right?
Thanks to his good memory, he had a clear impression of the size of Baochai's fingers. After trying several times carefully, he finally found the finger size that fit Xue Baochai's crispy and slightly fleshy fingers.

Qin Zhong took a careful look at Xue Pan, and found that this guy's face was even more ugly.Slowly said: "I don't know what my sister likes, so I bought it when I saw it suddenly. As long as my sister is satisfied, it's not early now, and I should make preparations and go back to Qin's house."

Gotta go, gotta go fast.

Otherwise, this idiot Xue Pan might really hit someone!

After Qin Zhong finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xue Pan and Xue Baochai's reaction, let alone whether Xue Baochai would take it off and send it back, so he got up and bid farewell to the two.Then go straight away.

Call ~
thrilling!

Isn't it just sending a thimble, Xue idiot needs such a big reaction?It's not about giving fans, silk, hairpins, hairpins, bracelets, incense strings and the like.

In the room, Xue Pan still looked at the thimble in Baochai's hand, and asked in a muffled voice, "Sister likes this thing? I'll buy a gold one tomorrow."

"It's a needlework thing. If you want something gold or silver, it's fine." Xue Baochai took off the thimble carefully, feeling a little strange in his heart.I thought to myself: Why did Jingqing send this thing?

In the Qin family's carriage.

Qin Zhong took out another thimble as if juggling.

"Sister, look at this thing."

"Huh? Did you bring the things from Second Grandma Lian's room?" Qin Keqing was surprised.

What?
Anything in Wang Xifeng's room.Can there be such a simple thing in Wang Xifeng's room?Why did this girl think that Wang Xifeng got it from her?

Qin Zhong felt helpless.Pulling on Qin Keqing's little hand, he was about to put a thimble on Keqing.

Ok?
No, I made a mistake this time.This one is a little too big, and it won't fit on Qin Keqing's finger.

Qin Zhong panicked, quickly withdrew his hand, and secretly took out a thimble from his body.

This is just right!
He let out a breath, and said with a smile: "I saw my sister embroidering things in the room that day, and today I happened to see someone selling this little thing in Nancheng, so I bought it."

Qin Keqing frowned, and there was a charming and coquettish smile on her face.Angrily said: "You're wasting your money again. It's not like there's no such thing at home, why buy it?"

Qin Zhongdao: "Of course I have them at home, but I didn't buy them. In the future, if my sister wants to embroider, I will wear this one on her hand. In that case, it will be regarded as my sister and I embroidered together."

"It's so shameless, it's obviously my effort, and you still have to take half of the credit." Although Qin Keqing said so, looking at the practical gadget in his hand, his heart was warm.He even leaned into Qin Zhong's arms, and the smile on his mouth never came down.

I only heard Qin Zhong play a rogue and said: "I bought the things, why don't I have any credit for it?"

Qin Keqing didn't have the heart to argue with him, Jiaojiao got angry, and looked at the thing on her finger again.After a while, he asked, "Who else did Jing Qing buy this thing for?"

bang bang~~
Qin Zhong's heart beat twice, and he quickly denied: "No, besides my sister, why should I buy this for others?"

Qin Keqing stood up abruptly, looked sideways and said, "Did you buy one for Miss San?"

amount……

It turned out to be Tanchun!

"I just want my sister to go, I really forgot about her. I don't know if she loves needles or not. If she doesn't like it, it will be a bad thing." Qin Zhong said the nonsense, there was no abnormality on his face.

Although he didn't buy it for Tanchun, it was mainly because he didn't have much money, so he only bought three this time.One gave Baochai in the name of gratitude, one gave Keqing in the name of caring, and the other...

If you have money in hand, why buy this little thing that can't be seen on the table?
"In the car, don't make trouble!" Qin Keqing spat coquettishly, with a face full of embarrassment and joy. "Jing Qing has to put the third girl at ease. When I go to Jia's next time, I have to give her a good one."

"..."

The carriage creaked and creaked forward, and the people in the carriage snuggled together.When he got home, Qin Zhong went to change his clothes, and hurriedly called his confidant Lan Yongzhen to lead the horse to the village.

"Neng'er is thinner!"

This guy came to see Zhizhi'er who had been kidnapped from the mantou nunnery.

"Master~ the door hasn't been closed yet." Xiao Neng'er was ashamed and happy at the same time, and her body was limp in Qin Zhong's arms.I was startled suddenly, I felt my feet were off the ground, and then I heard the sound of closing the door, and I was speechless again.

Qin Zhong chuckled twice, looking at the delicate woman in his arms.He smiled and said, "Are Neng'er still used to eating and living these few days?" Seeing her nodding, he said again: "I just came back from Jia's house, so I'm afraid Neng'er won't be used to living here."

"Other things are fine, but I can't see the uncle." Smarter pursed her lips, she really wanted to go to Qin's house, even if she was willing to be a close girl by Qin Zhong's side.

"Will we see you now? Don't worry, the place where you are is my home. Can I stay away from home forever?" Qin Zhong picked up his light Zhi'er and sat on the kang, and said crookedly: "In the future The couple of us will build a few more houses here, buy a few girls who are handy, and finally open a vegetable garden outside. From now on, I will have dinner with Nenger here at noon and afternoon."

Smarter was stunned, and didn't react for a long time, but the tears flowed first.

Seeing this, Qin Zhong hastily wiped it away.Then he took out a small gadget from his body, and said softly, "Look what I brought you?"

Zhi'er looked at the thimble in doubt, very puzzled.

Qin Zhongdao: "Don't look at this is just a small thing for needlework, but its significance is extraordinary. It is said that the man farms and the woman weaves. In the future, you can wear a gift from me and I will do the farming. This is a real husband and wife. !"

[Smart child favorability +13, Yangshou increased by 13 days (current favorability: 78)]

You have to be smart!

Inadvertently planting willows, the favorability will increase rapidly.It took so much effort, and it turned out to be almost eighty.

Touched by Qin Zhong, he spent a lot of time here in the afternoon, and came more frequently in the days to come.

In February, Xia Jingui felt anxious.

"It's been a long time since Jing Qing came to the city! If I had known this, I should have... oh..."

Sorry!
Baochan said softly: "The wind and haze are blowing outside, covering the sky and the sun, how could Uncle Qin enter the city at this time. After two days, the uncle should come back from the Tiekan Temple, it depends on whether Uncle Qin will come back that day and come over."
