The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 187
After hearing Qingwen's affectionate and righteous words, Zijuan looked at her with admiration, and was about to say something, but saw the door of the main room suddenly opened, and then Mu Xu came out with loose hair, and after seeing the two, From a distance, he said, "Why are you two girls dodging there, why don't you come over quickly to serve."

The two quickly walked over, and without waiting for their explanation, Mu Xu ordered again, "Leave Qingwen to comb my hair, and Zijuan, go and tell Wangfei that you Shizifei will not go to eat with her today. gone."

Zijuan responded and turned to leave, while Qingwen was about to go in to tidy up Mu Xu's hair, but Mu Xu stopped her, "Take out the comb and my golden crown, and tidy my hair in the yard, don't disturb me." Your concubine rest."

Qingwen had no choice but to enter the room and took a jade comb from Daiyu's dressing table, found Mu Xu's golden crown, came to the yard, stood behind Mu Xu and combed her hair, asking casually Said, "My lord, when are we going back to Beijing?"

Mu Xu narrowed his eyes and asked back, "Why, don't you like Fengtian?"

While brushing Mu Xu's hair, Qingwen replied, "Isn't it almost four months since I came here? It's almost autumn now. I heard from people in the house that the winter here in Liaodong is like ice." Yes, how can I bear it then?"

"You're right. I really didn't think about this problem before. I originally planned to spend the New Year in Liaodong and go back in the spring of next year." He may not be able to adapt to the harsh climate in Liaodong, he pondered for a while, "How about this, I will come back tonight and ask your concubine what you think before making a decision."

"By the way, why haven't I seen that girl Xueyan since I came back today?"

"A few days ago, she accompanied the concubine and the girl to go out of the city to incense, and she fell ill when she came back. The doctor said that she had contracted a cold, so the concubine let her rest in bed, so she didn't have to serve her."

"Well, it's good that it's okay. You guys have done a lot in serving the concubine. I should reward you well. I got some good furs during this expedition. I will ask you concubine to give you some tomorrow. I heard that you are the best at needlework. Just make a cloak, so you won’t be afraid of the cold in winter.”

Qingwen was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly thanked her, "Thank you, Shizi, when I was in Rongguo Mansion, I once mended a white fox shawl for Second Mistress Lian, she is so precious, I never thought I would be so blessed. "

"What blessing?" Zijuan who came in from the outside couldn't help asking when she heard Qingwen's words.Qingwen smiled and said the matter, and Zijuan quickly thanked Mu Xu.

Mu Xu said casually, "You don't need to thank me. I should thank you for taking care of the concubine. Besides, our house doesn't say anything, but there are many good furs. Qingwen, aren't you a white fox who envies Mrs. Jia Lian?" Shawl? Tomorrow, you can pick some more white fox fur and make one yourself. When you have a chance to go to Rongguo Mansion in the future, you can wear the shawl and cape together and show off in front of her."

Qingwen thought about the scene first, and then said, "Grandma Lian'er is so powerful, I dare not be arrogant in front of her."

Just after Mu Xu had made out with Daiyu, she was in a good mood, so she joked with Qingwen and Zijuan, "She just looks amazing, but in fact, she didn't let the second wife of Rongguo Mansion make a fool of herself."

Zijuan was a little disbelieving, "The second wife is not a good person, we know that, but the second wife Lian is very trusted by the old lady, and she still manages the inner house of the Rongguo Mansion, how could the second wife be tricked?" Qingwen also echoed.

Mu Xu said disdainfully, "Thanks to the fact that you have stayed in Rongguo Mansion for so long, you don't know as much as an outsider like me. Let me tell you what it means to be sinister." I gave the two of them a rough explanation of how to give her a contraceptive pill for the profit.

The two girls were stunned when they heard this, and only then did they realize that there were still these things. Qingwen was often targeted by Mrs. Wang in the past, and now that she left Jia's mansion, she didn't have to worry about anything, and said immediately, "Why is the second wife so vicious? Second Mistress is still her own niece!"

"Hmph, what's a niece? What can't Wang do to let Jia Baoyu's phoenix egg inherit the Rongguo Mansion?" Mu Xu said with a sneer.

Hearing Mu Xu's mockery of Jia Baoyu, Qingwen gave Zijuan a look that she saw it, and Zijuan gave her a hard look, signaling her to stop making trouble.Qingwen was especially unconvinced, and she wanted to say something more, when Daiyu came out of the room lazily, "What are you talking about, it's so lively, I can only hear the chattering outside in the room."

Before Mu Xu and Zijuan could reply, Qingwen quickly repeated what Mu Xu said just now, and Daiyu gave Mu Xu a good-looking look, "You man, why do you care about other people's back houses?" ?”

Mu Xu smiled and said, "Isn't this boring? Let's gossip with Zijuan and the others, so that they can have a long memory, so as not to mistake everyone for a good person."

After coming to the stone bench opposite Mu Xu and sitting down, Daiyu yawned and said, "The sky net is well restored, and it is not leaking. Isn't Second Aunt suffering retribution now? Why bother talking about her?"

"Hmph, based on what she did to you, this fate is too cheap for her now. If she is not a girl, I will never forgive her."

"Okay, I'm doing well, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about her." Daiyu quickly persuaded.

Mu Xu sighed, "You, it's because you are so kind that people bully you."

Hearing what he said, Daiyu smiled wryly, "We are one as a husband and wife, so you naturally talk to me, but other people don't think so. Ask Zijuan and Qingwen, when they were in Rongguo Mansion, which one didn't say that I love to make you happy?" Petty?"

After hearing this, Qingwen hurriedly retorted, "Miss, this is wrong. We all know that the girl has a very good temper. Those words were not spread by the second wife, but for the purpose of being a bad girl, lest the old lady..." Speaking At this, Qingwen suddenly realized that it would be bad to continue talking. She couldn't help but look at Mu Xu in front of her with a guilty conscience, but because she was facing away from her, she didn't know what his expression was.

Of course Daiyu knew what Qingwen was going to say next, but fortunately she didn't finish her words, she quickly looked at Mu Xu's face, and after finding nothing unusual, she said to Qingwen angrily, "My son is going to go Yan, why don't you hurry up and comb his hair well, and wait any longer, and I'll fine you a monthly fee!"

Qingwen stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say anything more, but Mu Xu suddenly said, "You don't have to be so scruples, I'm not so stingy. Besides, the old lady of Jia's family wants to tell Yu'er to Jia Baoyu , I can also understand, after all my Yu'er is so good, it's not surprising that she has such an idea."

Being praised by him in front of other people, although Daiyu was very sweet in her heart, she still blushed and said angrily, "How can anyone praise her wife like that? Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, otherwise they will definitely say you Bragging."

"I'm just telling the truth." Mu Xu shook his head, then he stared into Daiyu's eyes and said seriously, "Although you shouldn't gossip about people in private, it's better to be careful when you get along with your grandmother in the future. "

Daiyu was stunned, not understanding why Mu Xu said that. Meeting her puzzled eyes, Mu Xu explained, "Your grandmother is actually the same as Wang's, and there is only one Jia Baoyu in her eyes, and others can use it." Object, just wait and see, she will definitely ask you to take care of Jia Baoyu in the future, will you agree or not?"

Daiyu didn't know what Mu Xu said, but usually because of her mother, she didn't want to think about it, but today, since her husband told her off, she thought about it for a while, and then firmly stated, "I'm just a The woman in the house, how can I take care of the affairs of the men outside, unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not be troublesome."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was not right, Zijuan at the side quickly reminded Mu Xu, "My lord, the lord has already sent someone to remind you twice, telling you to go to the banquet quickly."

Mu Xu nodded, straightened his clothes, and explained to Daiyu, "I asked Zijuan to take leave from mother's place for you, and you can stay in Jifutang for dinner today, and you don't have to run around anymore."

"Well, I see, you go to the banquet quickly, don't make people wait."
