The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 598 The girl in red?The girl in green?
When Xiren saw Jia Lian appearing in his small courtyard, his eyes were bright.

When Jia Lian came walking with her hands behind her back and smiling, she clenched her little hands nervously.Always calm and sensible, she forgot to introduce Jia Lian's identity to her mother and sister-in-law hiding behind the door, so she could only let her brother smile nervously and carelessly in front of her.

"The housewife pays homage to Lord Hou..."

Mother Hua also wanted to kneel down to greet Jia Lian like Hua Zifang, but Jia Lian helped her up in advance, and then said with a smile: "Old lady, you don't need to be polite. I pass by here and come in to ask for a cup of tea. I hope the old lady can't blame her."

"It's no wonder, no wonder..."

Ignoring Huamu's flattery, Jia Lian took a look at Jia Baoyu, and before entering the door, he turned his eyes to Xiren.The attacker just lowered his head.

After Jia Lian entered the room, Hua Zifang, Huamu and the others hadn't recovered from their senses, and they involuntarily focused their eyes on Xi Ren.

"Girl, what's going on here? Why are all the masters and sons of the Jia family here?" Huamu asked Xiren in a very low voice.

"I don't know either, you ask brother."

Hua Zifang hesitated for a moment, "She said she saw Second Master Bao here, so she came in to have a look."

Hua Zifang's words reassured the flower mother a little.She just said, it's justified for the second master Bao to come to their dilapidated place, after all, he is the master his daughter has served for many years, and he is a child, so there are some playful things.

This Lord Lian knew that he was a figure in the sky without even inquiring carefully. How could they be friends and cling to me.

So Mother Hua sighed: "God, we don't know what kind of incense is burned in our family, but we have recruited all these people today. Girl, why are you still standing there, why don't you go in and serve the two masters?"

Xiren nodded silently and walked into the room.Seeing Jia Lian looking at their house, and Jia Baoyu standing beside Jia Lian blankly like a child who made a mistake, she stepped forward to fetch a brand new tureen and poured tea for Jia Lian, saying: "Our house is simple, The tea is not good either, so I can only wrong the second master."

Jia Lian turned around and glanced at her, smiled inexplicably, sat down, took the tea bowl and slowly sipped it.

Xiren had something on her mind and was not as clever as she used to be. Jia Lian didn't tell her to just stand there.But Jia Baoyu didn't know Jia Lian's intention of chasing him this time, so he couldn't say anything, so he could only cast his eyes to the inside, where the three or five girls who were clustered at the end of the kang curiously stretched their necks to peep outside. child.

When the girls noticed his gaze, they all hurriedly avoided it, and they all looked ashamed, which made Jia Baoyu stunned, and his eyes were infatuated.

All of a sudden, Mother Hua came in, scolded Xiren for not serving her well, and then led her nieces, nieces and others out of the room and asked them to meet Jia Lian.

Only then did Jia Lian have a chance to look at these attacking aunts and cousins.

If Jia Lian remembered correctly, Xiren had a cousin in red, a girl whom Jia Baoyu would never forget after seeing her.Jia Lian came in just now, so he didn't have a little bit of a curious mind.

Apart from Xiren, there are four girls in total, the older one is sixteen or seventeen, and the younger one is only about seven or eight years old, but they are all quite beautiful.

Although Jia Lian didn't see the "girl in red" at first glance, because the girls were all wearing red and willow green flowers, Jia Lian still easily locked the target.

The girl in the light green jacket looks about twenty-eight years old, with a dexterous and handsome appearance. Looking at Hanchun, at a glance, she is undoubtedly the most beautiful among the sisters of the Hua family.Even when it comes to Lingxiu, it is slightly better than Xiren.

Turning his head to look, he found that Jia Baoyu's eyes were firmly attached to this girl, and Jia Lian was sure: the girl in green is the girl in red.

Looking back, Jia Lian smiled at Huamu: "The Hua family is indeed a land of beauty and beauty. Not only did it raise a girl like Xiren, but even my old lady praised her as her favorite girl, and even the girl from a relative's family was also a good girl." The top one is beautiful."

Girls from ordinary families were already shy, and Jia Lian praised them face to face. They all shyly hid behind Huamu and Xiren.

Seeing this, Jia Baoyu glanced at Jia Lian reproachfully and enviously.He also wanted to strike up a conversation with these girls, but he was afraid of being abrupt, so before Jia Lian came, he just took a sneak look at them, why Jia Lian praised her beauty as soon as they met.

Hua Mu laughed from ear to ear.If the man next to him said that, she would still be suspicious of his intentions, but facing Jia Lian's status and character, daughters like them are probably not even qualified to be molested by him.

"Where there is no way, Xiren is able to be what he is today, all thanks to the kindness and cultivation of the mansion, being able to be appreciated by the old lady of your mansion is a blessing she cultivated in her previous life..."

"The old lady is too modest. For such a good girl as Xiren, there will always be people scrambling for her wherever I go, and my Jia's house is naturally no exception."

Jia Lian's words were a bit inexplicable, Huamu, Jia Baoyu and others couldn't hear anything, but Xi Ren, who was the person involved, understood the implication immediately, and his cheeks suddenly felt a little hot.

Competing for what, who will fight?With whom?This is obvious.

Xiren couldn't help thinking, could it be that when he saw Second Master Bao coming to his home, he was worried that his heart would be taken away by Second Master Bao, so he hurried in to declare his sovereignty?

Xiren's heart was inexplicably complicated, and it was beating nervously.For a long time, she didn't know whether Jia Lian's attitude towards her was good or bad. After all, losing her body to Jia Lian was an accident and she had no choice but to do so.

Afterwards, Jia Lian was neither cold nor cold to her, hot and cold, which made her often fall into self-doubt.It's all right now, no matter what Jia Lian's attitude towards her was before, today he was able to step into his humble house, which proves that he is not completely dispensable, and he still cares about himself, the little girl he bullied. Maid's.

Jia Lian didn't know that just a few words from him could bring Xiren to a very high level of self-improvement.From his point of view, he stepped into Hua's house today out of pleasure, and stopped by to have a look at the girl in red.

He would not admit that he was a little worried when he noticed Jia Baoyu's presence in Hua's house.Regardless of Jia Baoyu's innocence and childishness, this brat still has a way of coaxing girls.Although Xiren's mind is relatively mature, it's hard to guarantee that he won't be moved by such a gentle and kind son-in-law, and give up on his "first love".

Even so, it's nothing.He didn't pay much attention to Xiren, but, as a man, he always doesn't like his own woman and falls in love with others.

Seeing that Jia Lian was easy to talk, Hua Mu wanted to flatter her. Seeing Xi Ren's face, Jia Lian said a few perfunctory words, and then said, "I've also drunk the tea. I still have a few words I want to explain to my younger brother. I don't know if the old lady can make a place with my brother and me?"

Mother Hua was taken aback for a moment, and then firmly believed that Jia Lian was going to start teaching Jia Baoyu, a disobedient brother, so she quickly said yes, and led the other girls except Xiren to retreat.

As for Xiren's sister-in-law, she had already slipped away through the back door.

"But did you see it?"

Jia Baoyu's eyes were forced to peel off the "girl in red" reluctantly, not waiting for regrets, suddenly hearing Jia Lian's jokes, he was at a loss for what to do, and hurriedly said: "Second brother Lian, what nonsense are you talking about? What... look... see..."

"From the moment I entered the door, I noticed that your kid's eyes have never come down from other people's bodies. Isn't this because you are looking at something?
You don't need to be shy, if you really like it, just tell me, maybe I can help you realize your wish, maybe not necessarily. "

"Huh... what nonsense..."

Jia Baoyu stuttered in embarrassment, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Even though Jia Lian took away the person he cared most about when he was young and ignorant, he still had no doubts about Jia Lian's character, and he couldn't hate Jia Lian from his heart.

Take the present as an example, originally he was worried that Jia Lian would use his elder brother's prestige to teach him a lesson, or go back and complain to Mrs. Wang and so on.Unexpectedly, Jia Lian didn't seem to have any such meaning at all, and only made fun of him.

So, he couldn't help but start to think about the sincerity in Jia Lian's words!Although he looked down on those who seek fame and fortune, he also understood that Jia Lian could accomplish many things that he couldn't, and it might be very easy.

"Nonsense? If you think I'm talking nonsense, then just pretend I didn't say it. Alas, it's a pity that the girl looks like she's almost at the age of marriage. Maybe the next time someone sees her again, she will already be human." Oh, it’s okay to think that after this visit, you won’t be able to see her again.”

Jia Baoyu's heart tightened immediately, yes, given the disparity in family status between Jia's family and Hua's family, and the fact that he was usually restricted from going out, after seeing him this time, he might never have the chance to see him again in the future!

Thinking of such an innocent daughter like water, who would never see each other again, his heart felt so sad that he wanted to cry.

Seeing his appearance, Jia Lian suppressed the smile in his heart, and looked at Xiren beside him.

Xiren understood what Jia Lian meant, and said, "That's my aunt's daughter, she's fifteen this year."

fifteen

For daughters of this era, fifteen, six or seven is the most suitable age to get married.

Jia Baoyu was finally hooked and couldn't hold back his thoughts, and said timidly, "Second Brother Lian, what can you do to make her not marry? What's so good about being married? Isn't it good for my daughter's family to keep her family clean... ..."

Jia Lian couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the words, and even Xiren couldn't help but glance at Jia Baoyu, his eyes were speechless.

Jia Baoyu also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he thought about it bitterly, and then said: "Then, second brother, can you have a way to let her come to our house?"

"Well, there is a way...but it depends on what you mean.

If you really like someone, please hire someone, and marry him in a good manner.If you don't know these red tapes, I can help you with them. "

The attacker hurriedly said: "Second master can't, the old lady and the wife won't agree. How can we be so small and small?"

Xiren didn't know why Jia Lian urged Jia Baoyu to marry her cousin, but she knew that it would definitely not work.What kind of family they are, and what kind of family Jia's family is, how can they match, even she once hoped at most to get the status of an aunt beside Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu was also dumbfounded, and finally said sullenly: "Sister Xiren is right, the old lady and the wife won't agree..."

No matter how naive Jia Baoyu was, she knew that her family would not allow her to marry a commoner girl.Jia's mother is still good at talking, but his mother will definitely not agree.

Jia Lian smiled.Sure enough, Jia Baoyu was just like Qin Zhong from the bottom up, he was a person who dared to think and dare not do it, in other words, he couldn't take on things.

Tell him to marry and go home, but he didn't say that he must be the regular wife.But thinking about it, Mrs. Wang will definitely not allow it even if she takes a concubine. In the eyes of Mrs. Wang, Jia Baoyu is a pure and flawless jade in the rough, a treasure in the heart, and she cannot be tarnished by a vixen!
Jia Baoyu was afraid of Mrs. Wang and did not dare to resist in the slightest. Jia Lian knew it well.

Such a person is absolutely impossible to protect the people around him.He can't even protect himself.

So Jia Lian ignored Jia Baoyu and looked at Xiren: "The mansion is currently recruiting maidservants, and your second grandma also said that she wants to choose some useful people to wait by her side. I think your cousin is very good. Go back and represent her." Let me ask your uncle and aunt, if they are willing, the Rongguo Mansion is willing to hire you at a high price for a period of three years, and after three years, you can marry and marry independently."

Although Xiren's cousin is one of the little beauties I feel sorry for, for Jia Lian who is used to seeing beauties, it's just to satisfy her curiosity.

It's just that for a family boy like Jia Baoyu who doesn't leave home, this kind of Xiaojiabiyu, a pure girl, may be extremely lethal, just like when he saw the "second girl" in the countryside in the suburbs of the city.Not to mention, Jia Baoyu is still a master who can't move his eyes when he sees a good-looking girl, so it's not surprising that Jia Baoyu falls in love at first sight, because he falls in love at first sight a lot.

But in the end, it was Jia Baoyu who saw it first, and Jia Lian would not rob him indiscriminately, so there was no joke before.If Jia Baoyu wanted to help him, it could be regarded as making up for the debt of taking the attacker away.

What, Daiyu?I'm sorry, Jia Lian doesn't feel indebted, he thinks it's an act of justice.

Before confirming that Jia Baoyu has no ability and ideas to protect others, Jia Lian temporarily dismissed the idea of ​​giving the person directly to Jia Baoyu.He didn't want to do bad things with good intentions, don't be nice to the girl's house, and suffer some kind of abuse after entering the Rongguo Mansion.

Still keep it by my side, and give it to Jia Baoyu when he grows up.If Jia Baoyu hasn't grown up in three years, then I'm sorry, it doesn't make sense to keep delaying other girls.

When Jia Baoyu heard this, his eyes lit up immediately.It's good to be a maid, then he can see it every day!

Xiren sighed inwardly, she knew very well that once her cousin went in, she would definitely not be able to come out after three years.Even in front of these two masters, she is only enough to fit between her teeth, let alone her young and innocent girl.

Fortunately, what Jia Lian said was that he wanted to match up his cousin and Master Bao.That's fine, she already felt deeply guilty towards Jia Baoyu in her heart, and if she could make it up with her cousin, she would be at peace with her conscience.As far as the cousin is concerned, whether it is the second master Bao or the second master Lian, she can be regarded as a high climber.

So put away the jealousy in my heart, nodded, and said that I would try my best to make peace.
