The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 705 Mid-Autumn Festival [Part [-]]

It was dark the next day.

Carefully pulling his wrist from the back of Lin Daiyu's neck and replacing it with a pillow, Jiao Shun quietly got out of bed, and tiptoely opened the door to the outside with his clothes.

As soon as I went out, I saw Zijuan and snow geese sleeping under the bed of Luohan under the west wall.

He closed the door with his backhand, walked to Luohan's bed and coughed lightly, the two servant girls trembled at the same time, and before they could fully open their eyes, they hurriedly stood up with their shoes on.

When they saw Jiao Shun in front of Shi, they hurriedly wanted to salute again.

This look is the habit of being a maid for many years.

"Shh~"

Jiao Shun made a silent gesture, pointed to the inside and said, "Don't disturb your girl, let her sleep for a while."

As he spoke, he passed the clothes in his hand forward.

Xueyan took it in his hand without hesitation, while Zijuan silently lit a candle, and then the two of them worked around Jiao Shun, helping him to dress and wash.

During this period, Zijuan was clearly not in high spirits, but Xueyan had a hint of complacency in her eyes, as if she had just won a battle.

Yesterday, the two confronted each other outside the door for a long time, but they couldn't hear the call from inside. Xueyan was a little disappointed at first, but after thinking about it, although he didn't get it, he had eaten and seen it before. It is better than the azalea bamboo basket to fetch water in vain.

In fact, last night, Lin Daiyu also proposed to let the maid come in to attend the bed, but Jiao Shun refused.

Although it is not enough to say it, but the experience is really not bad, the reason is the same as Wang Xifeng, there is a slave who deceives the master, and here is the heroine of the Red Mansion that thousands of people will miss in the future, and they can be satisfied to the greatest extent A man's desire to conquer.

Besides, isn't this just a good time for Jill to take a vacation and recharge her energy for the Mid-Autumn Festival in the future?

After dressing neatly and washing up, Jiao Shun went to the study for a while, and then drove away in the carriage.

Xueyan waved the handkerchief until the carriage disappeared around the corner, then reluctantly withdrew her gaze, leaned towards Zijuan who was beside her, snorted coldly, and went back to the courtyard without saying a word.

Zicuckoo frowned slightly upon seeing this.

After yesterday's confrontation, the conflict between the two has been brought to the fore. Zijuan is not afraid of the snow geese, but worried that Lin Daiyu will develop a grudge if she knows that she is eager to sacrifice herself.

Just returning to the main room with such apprehension, only to find that the snow geese were not in the living room, and there were rustling noises in the living room.

Zijuan hurriedly pushed the door open and went into the inner room, and saw that Lin Daiyu had already got up, her expression seemed a little cold, and she frowned thoughtfully.

Zijuan's heart was pounding more and more, fearing that the snow geese had already sued her for being tricky, so she stepped forward calmly, tidied Daiyu's sleeves, and asked tentatively, "Why did the girl get up? Uncle Jiao just specifically explained, Telling you to sleep for a while."

"I woke up early."

Lin Daiyu replied indifferently, and after she finished her simple grooming, she sat in front of the dressing table and picked out the jewelry absent-mindedly.

She had indeed woken up a long time ago, but it was the first time she was lying in Jiao Shun's arms like this, which made her feel a little uncomfortable, so she didn't disturb Jiao Shun, just thinking about things silently.

And the more you think about it, the harder it is to face reality.

After all, if she went back to a year ago, she would never have imagined that she would be where she is today.

It's not regrettable, it's just...

At this moment, Jiao Shun cautiously got up and left again - today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he specified that he didn't have to go to the Yamen to be on duty, so if he left so early, he must be in a hurry to go home to celebrate the spring and autumn.

Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu only felt an inexplicable sense of loneliness hit her heart, which made her feel depressed after waking up.

After careful observation, Zijuan confirmed that it was not her fault, so she felt relieved, and while helping Daiyu choose jewelry, she suggested: "Since the girl is up, let me heat up the leftover eight-treasure porridge from yesterday." ..."

"Not urgent."

Lin Daiyu chose Zhi Suchai to stick on the cloud bun, got up and said, "I'll go to the study first to sort out the results of yesterday's wind gathering, and it won't be too late to have breakfast when I'm done."

Since the loneliness is always lingering, I can only put my love in the books - after cutting off contact with Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu is also used to this.

Just waiting for her to come to the study room, open the handwriting transcribed yesterday, and prepare to sort it out and see if there are any that can be used in the story of "Farewell My Concubine", but what catches her eyes is a few rows of rough words :
I just saw that your body was stiff while pretending to be sleeping. You should exercise your muscles and bones first before sitting down to write. Besides, this is the only time you are going to sit down. No matter how shy you are in the future, don’t expect me to avoid it.

The inscription is a cartoon dog's head sticking out its tongue.

Lin Daiyu's gaze rested on the dog's head for a moment, and suddenly she burst out laughing, her face flushed with embarrassment and joy, how could she be lonely at all?

Outside the study door.

When Zijuan and Xueyan heard Lin Daiyu's laughter, they both heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately looked at each other, their expressions quickly collapsed again.

…………

Jiao's backyard.

While Zicuckoo and Xueyan were secretly jealous, a public case was brought up here.

The reason is that Qingwen caught Yuchuan stealing his wife's plum blossoms, and then found some anti-abortion medicinal materials and objects in her room, and clamored to present these stolen goods to Shi Xiangyun for review.

Naturally, Yu Chuan didn't dare to go, first she begged softly, and then saw that Qingwen refused to let her go, so she got red-eyed and quarreled with her—but after all, she was caught, so she quickly fell behind. downwind.

Together with the commotion, Xiangling and Hongyu in the main room, and Yindie in the west wing all heard it clearly.

Xiangling hurried over to persuade her to make peace, but Yindie just watched the fire from the other side with her ears pricked up.

As for Lin Hongyu, seeing that Xiangling had gone to no avail, she hurried to the kitchen in the front yard—Gain Shi Xiangyun was taking Xing Xiuyan and Ping'er to inspect the preparations for the luncheon and dinner.

In fact, Xing Xiuyan and Heping'er have already made arrangements for this matter, but Shi Xiangyun is a bride who just married this year after all, so there is always a process to go through.

When they were in the kitchen, Lin Hongyu asked someone to call out Cuilu in a low voice, and told about Qingwen and Yuchuan, and said: "Xiangling and I can't persuade them, I'm afraid only my sister will come forward!"

Cui Ling was actually slightly younger than Hong Yu, but because she was married to a maidservant, her status was the highest.

Hearing that it was Qingwen who took advantage of Yu Chuan, she said with a bitter face: "Well... I'm afraid it won't help if I go, why don't you explain it to Yu Chuan in front of your wife, you know how madam is. Yes, I will never go to war for something like this."

Seeing her talking, she was going back to the kitchen to report.

Lin Hongyu became anxious immediately, grabbed her and said repeatedly: "Sister, don't worry! Let's do it at another time, but if there is a commotion during the Mid-Autumn Festival, won't the troubled wife and Aunt Xing's face be ashamed?"

Hearing what she said was reasonable, Cui Hui stood still, with a look of embarrassment on her face, obviously she was very afraid of Qingwen who had a hot temper.

Seeing this, Lin Hongyu leaned into the kitchen and peeked in, then turned her head to Cuilu and said, "If not, let's invite Sister Siqi out, Yuchuan is under her control, and we'll let her decide what to say."

Hearing this, Cui Hui seemed to be pardoned, clapped her hands and said, "That's a good idea, that's a good idea! Just wait, I'll go and find Sister Siqi right now."

As he said that, he trotted in and led Siqi out after a short while.

After hearing the cause and effect, Siqi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said angrily: "What a stingy little hoof, how can you do such a shameless thing?! If it spreads out, how will Auntie deal with it?!"

Saying that, no matter how Cui Ling and Hong Yu are, they stride towards the back house.

Cui Ling and Hong Yu hurriedly trotted after her.

When she returned to the back house, Qingwen had already pulled Yu Chuan out of the East Chamber. The make-up on Yu Chuan's face was all weeping. What.

"what to do?!"

Seeing this, Siqi immediately put his hands on his hips and stopped drinking.

Qingwen was trying her best to pull, but when she heard her drink, she unconsciously loosened her grip, and was dragged back by Yu Chuan for two steps.

She hurriedly increased her strength, turned her head and sneered at the same time: "Sister asked me? I just wanted to ask you. You two are usually in the East Wing. Don't you know what she has done?"

As early as in the Grand View Garden, the two had had a dispute. At that time, Siqi had the absolute upper hand by relying on his body and strength. Now that Qingwen has the handle of the East Chamber, it is natural to settle the old and new ones together.

"Humph~"

Naturally, Siqi would not be afraid of her defeat, and immediately said: "If I knew, could I still wait until today?"

As he said that, he strode up to the two of them, pulled up the jade bracelet and walked into the east chamber: "What's the trouble here? Come on, come in with me and speak clearly!"

Just now he was able to fight with Qingwen with the jade bracelet that was scattered in all directions, but in her hands she was completely defenseless, and was taken into the East Chamber like a chick.

Seeing this, Qingwen sneered, and followed in without hesitation.

Cui Ling, Xiang Ling, and Hong Yu all followed closely behind.

When they got to the house, Qingwen said without waiting for Siqi to speak: "I caught her stealing my wife's words, and I found a tonic for anti-abortion in the house. The evidence is conclusive. What else can I ask?" of?"

Cui Ling Ruby stood aside and said nothing, Xiangling hesitated for a moment, but she timidly leaned into Siqi's ear, and whispered against Qingwen's unfriendly gaze: "Sister also knows, she only wants to be an aunt, So I just pretended to want to enjoy my wife's happiness - there is absolutely no other meaning besides this."

Yuchuan was not stupid either, knowing that Xiangling must be speaking for him, he hurriedly argued along with him, "I kept some for myself, but they were all leftovers such as broken ginseng whiskers, and I would never dare to skimp on serious things. tonic!"

"Small scraps?"

Qingwen sneered and said, "Do you think the things your wife uses are all cheap? Just those few ginseng whiskers, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay for them if you sell them!"

Siqi was silent.

How could she not know what Yu Chuan was thinking?

She was obviously the first maid in the family, and was the first to be adopted by the master, but now she is not showing any signs of detachment. Yu Chuan is naturally unwilling, so she is anxious to lift her aunt.

But she secretly took the anti-abortion fruit and tonic, and the evidence of the crime is undeniable and cannot be disputed...

After pondering for a while, Siqi suddenly got up and took out a feather duster from the big vase under the west wall, and then strode towards Qingwen.

Qingwen said that she was not afraid, so she couldn't help feeling a little flustered at this moment, she took a half step back and questioned, "What are you going to do..."

Halfway through the speech, Siqi had already handed the feather duster to his eyes.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival after all. My wife and my aunt will lose face if there is a disturbance. Why don't we punish them in private first, and I will report the matter to my aunt after two days so that my aunt and wife can talk about it. How about it? "

Without waiting for Qingwen to respond, she handed the feather duster forward again: "You can hit as many times as you think is suitable; you can hit as much as you think is appropriate!"

Qingwen looked at the feather duster, then looked at the expressions of everyone in the room, gritted her teeth and snatched her hands away, and said bitterly: "Do you think I can't do it?!"

As he spoke, he snatched up behind Yu Chuan in a few steps, picked up a feather duster and slapped her hard on the back.

Yuchuan gritted her teeth and held back, but Xiangling next to her let out a low cry of terror. Seeing Qingwen gnashing her teeth a few more times, she finally couldn't help but rushed forward, hugged Qingwen and cried, "Sister, stop beating me!" , if you want to hit me, then Mei is the one I gave her!"

Cui Ling and Hong Yu also persuaded her at the right time, and let her be beaten a few times, and how to punish her should be left to the wife to decide.

Qingwen panted heavily and remained silent for a while, then suddenly threw the feather duster to the ground, and said with a sneer, "Okay, okay, you are all good people, but I am the one who is hated by thousands of people wherever I go! "

With that said, he turned his head and walked out.

"and many more!"

But Siqi caught up and grabbed her, and said sharply: "You have been beaten, why do you seem to have been wronged? In front of everyone, let's not hide it, just open the skylight and say Tell the truth! It is true that Yu Chuan was wrong, but if you were still by Bao Yu's side, wouldn't you just poke at Bao Yu like this?!"

"Speaking of which, you have been here for two or three years, but the grievances in your heart have never dissipated. You sleep in Yihong Courtyard in your dreams! You say we despise you, but you feel your heart and think about it , Are we squeezing you out, or have you always regarded yourself as an outsider?!"

Qingwen who said these words was stunned on the spot, after a long time, she looked around the crowd in confusion, then lowered her head and left in a daze.

After watching Qingwen leave, Siqi sighed helplessly, turned his head and stared at Yuchuan fiercely, and said, "Don't go there today, just reflect on me in the East Chamber!"

After finishing speaking, he asked Xiangling to help Yu Chuan apply medicine, and told her that if there was anything wrong with Yu Chuan, she should tell her quickly, so she could send someone to call for a doctor.

In this way, the clouds will be dispersed for one day.

When Jiao Shun returned to the backyard with Shi Xiangyun in his arms, all the maids were beaming with joy, as if what happened just now had never happened.
