Love in the Red Chamber

Chapter 6 My sister has a little tea 【Read more】

"Something related to food?" Emperor Long Tai let out a surprise.

"Correct!"

Qin Zhong just wanted to try one last time.

If you don't gain a little favorability, turn around and leave.

It doesn't matter whether Uncle Chen is a grain merchant or an official of the household department.

Even if it is really a grain merchant, the news of the severe drought on the Qiantang River will not hurt.

In the past few decades, there have been severe droughts on the Qiantang River, coupled with the development of commerce in the south of the Yangtze River.In the Zhejiang area, rice has been changed to mulberry and rice to cotton, and rice cultivation in the Qiantang River Basin has been much less.

Now Huguang is the main grain producing area.

Therefore, it is very difficult for merchants to take advantage of the opportunity to raise a high rice price.

Furthermore, the news will spread throughout the country within a month.

If it's an official from the household department, maybe he can remind them, which will increase their favorability in the future.

"One month later, that is, at the end of September, the price of rice in Shenjing will fluctuate. Uncle Chen can prepare in advance to guard against sudden rises in rice prices."

Qin Zhong cupped his hands and said things vaguely.

Emperor Longtai knew that the price of rice in Shenjing usually depended on several major grain merchants in Qinghe Town.

Emperor Longtai's eyes were slightly different.Squinting his eyes slightly, he asked:

"How do you know what will happen one month later? At the end of September, the late rice harvest in the Jiangnan and Lianghu areas will be abundant. Will the rice price be cheaper in October?"

"What if there is a severe drought on the Qiantang River and Zhejiang's late rice crop fails?"

……

"This person is really stingy, he doesn't give people a chance to explain, and he doesn't even increase his favorability at all!"

Qin Zhong felt very depressed when he saw the group of people going away.

Sure enough, the improvement of favorability still depends on the Jia family.

He scratched his head again, introspecting.

Is it because I was too active that I failed to increase my favorability?

Hey~
Under the warm wind and bright autumn sun, Qin Zhong returned to the Qin residence.

As soon as we passed the Chuihua Gate, it felt chilly in the courtyard.

Quiet, exceptionally quiet.

Can't hear any sound, the atmosphere is extremely weird!
He frowned, observing carefully.

The man's sixth sense told him that there was a storm hiding in the house.

But the master went out today, what kind of storm will there be?
Qin Keqing?
Yes, it must be Qin Keqing.

What is she holding back? !
Qin Zhong walked into the courtyard and looked around, but saw few people at all.

Go back to the wing room and wake up the maid who is dozing off.

"Where have everyone gone?"

The servant girl was startled, and saw that it was Qin Zhong.Hastily said:

"The uncle is back. For some reason, the young lady sulked in the room."

Qin Zhong's eyes were confused.

Qin Keqing has always been a gentle person with a very good temper, and she is also kind to her servants and maids.

He has been here for so many days, and he has never seen Qin Keqing blushing for any reason.

"Which one of you made her angry?"

The servant girl looked at him timidly, and whispered:
"As soon as the uncle left, the young lady's eyes turned red, and tears fell down one after another. The servant girls didn't... I don't know why!"

"You didn't ask her what's wrong?"

"Miss, why would you tell us? Miss Ruizhu has a heart-to-heart relationship with Sister Ruizhu. Sister Ruizhu won't let us ask, just let me wait for the uncle to come back."

"Is that so..."

Why is it happening like that?

Qin Zhong thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason.

The only thing that seems possible is...

Because she lied to her by pretending to be sick, is Qin Keqing sad and depressed?
It should...not be so!
Qin Zhong didn't have a clue, so he had to lead the servant girl out of the room.

In the middle of the main room of the Qin family courtyard is the living room, which is used for discussing affairs and receiving relatives and friends.

To the west of the reception hall is the west ear room, which is the master's study.The east ear room is the master's bedroom.

There is a small door at the end of the east ear room, which can lead to the backyard.

The backyard is often lived by the female relatives of the mansion.

Qin Keqing stayed in the backyard.It's just that the Qin family is small, and the family is not considered a big courtyard, and the rules are not too many.

Ke Qing also came out from the backyard every day, while assisting in managing the affairs of the Qin family, while supervising Qin Zhong's study.

Qin Zhong just went through the window of the east ear room and entered the small door.

Then a servant girl came into the room and announced, "Master is here."

Qin Zhong has been here for so long, and this is the first time he has set foot in the backyard.

I feel that it is very quiet and green here.

A house occupies the entire width of the courtyard, with carved beams and painted buildings, colorful.It was even more elegant and refined than his room.The west end of the building is connected to the attic, and the scorching sun from the sky sprinkles on the attic, dyeing the walls pale gold.

It also adds to the coolness of the backyard.

In the middle of the building is Qin Keqing's living room, also known as the reception room.

Entering the living room is Keqing's bedroom.The outside of the bedroom is where the maids live, and the inside is Keqing's bed.

Qin Zhong went in, but there was no sign of him.

Seeing this, the servant girl Baozhu opened the curtain for him. "Miss is lying down inside!"

Qin Zhong got into the bedroom.

The inside is the same as his room, except that there is a graceful figure lying behind the thin curtain on the bed.

"What's wrong with my sister?"

Walking over, the room smelled like incense.

It is incomparable in his room.

Before he could think about the comparison, he heard the person on the bed suck his nose twice.

Qin Keqing's clear and sad voice came out.

"You are here, and you still recognize me as my sister."

"What did my sister say?" Qin Zhong went carefully and went to the bedside.

I don't know if it's the incense in the room or the fragrance on the bed.

Drilling into his nose in bursts.

But all he could see was Qin Keqing wiping away tears with a handkerchief inside the gauze tent.

Qin Keqing said:

"In the end, you dislike me for letting you study. You pretended to be sick and lay in your room for a few days. How could you know that when someone came to the door, you would be alive and well, and you would go out and disappear in the blink of an eye."

Ruizhu took the stool and put it down for Qin Zhong to sit on.

He said: "Aren't you afraid that people from Ningguo Mansion will come and cause trouble? The master is out on business again, so I naturally want to go and have a look."

"That's right. I heard from the maid that Jing Qing was chatting and laughing with the Jia family members outside. He also rode a horse to swim with him. He was very happy."

The more Qin Keqing spoke, the more sad she became, and her voice was mournful afterward. "It turns out that Jingqing's words have always been coaxing me."

When a woman cries, it's really terrible.

Especially the kind that doesn't quarrel with you or quarrels with you, just blindly sad.

It made Qin Zhong a little difficult to resist.

"Jing Qing has never coaxed my sister." He said bravely, "My sister wants me to study, so this afternoon, my sister will watch over me to study, okay?"

"I read it today, and I won't read it tomorrow, just to make me happy for a while. What's the use?"

Qin Keqing spoke slowly, weeping and whispering aggrievedly. "Jing Qing also said that day that he earned a high family name, but it was just a nice word."

Qin Zhong has already noticed it.

Qin Keqing was acting again, very fascinated by acting.

This sister really has some tea!
But this kind of tea was actually used to force him to study.

Yangshou is almost gone, still studying? !
Headache!

It can't go on like this.

Qin Zhong didn't want Qin Keqing's favorability to drop, nor did he want to be manipulated by Qin Keqing.

When he came to this world, he naturally had many thoughts.

Unfortunately, two and a half years later, he was only 15 years old.

No matter how many ideas you have, you must first solve the problem of how to quickly obtain Yangshou.

Otherwise, the hair will hang up before it grows.

Wouldn't it be cheating?

What's the point? !

However, in order to stabilize Qin Keqing's favor, he also had to try to read books these days.

When Qin Zhong saw the wonderful man behind the thin tent again, his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

Coaxed: "Sister, if you don't believe me, just stay with me forever."

In the room, it suddenly fell silent.

Ke Qing, who was acting, fell silent.Youyou raised her upper eyelids, Qin Zhong's appearance was reflected in her clear eyes.Opened his mouth slightly...
