The Red Mansions

Chapter 32 Soft Fragrant Jade

The sun was warm, and under the grape trellis, Jia Yun hugged Xiren, clung to each other, and did not separate for a long time.

It wasn't until Xiren was out of breath that Jia Yun let her go, leaving her mouth full of fragrance.

Seeing Xiren lying in her arms with blurred eyes and ruddy cheeks, Jia Yun whispered, "Dare to be naughty, I'll give you good fruit, will you still be obedient from now on?"

"You will bully me!" Xiren raised his head and glared at him, and said softly, his voice was soft and weak, his little face was flushed, and he was indescribably charming.

Jia Yun chuckled, put her arms around Xiren's waist, bowed her head and wanted to continue.

Xiren hastily stretched out his hand, pressed Jia Yun's lips, and said in a low voice: "My friend, if Meiren comes out and sees it later, I won't be ashamed to see anyone!"

Jia Yun nodded and didn't force her anymore.

The two had known each other for nearly a month, and they were noisy, not only did they not feel unfamiliar, but they actually fell in love with Mung Dou.

Jia Yun originally thought that Xiren would have nothing to do with a maid like Xiren who was appointed by Mrs. Wang to be Jia Baoyu's concubine.

Never thought that his casual teasing would change Xiren.

Thinking about it carefully, it is estimated that at this moment Xiren either does not have the desire to be an aunt, or it is not too strong.

If in another year or two, when Jia Baoyu grows older, Mrs. Wang will explain a few more words to Xiren, it may not be so easy to seduce Xiren so easily.

However, Jia Yun didn't deny that she was being courteous for nothing, and the food she gave to Xiren every day should have played a role.

That's right, Xiren doesn't hate herself, plus I will give her candied chestnuts today and spicy sticks tomorrow, which is enough to make Xiren, who has never experienced anything in the world, happy.

The courtyard was extremely quiet, only the rustling of leaves and the distant chirping of birds.

Jia Yun thought of Xiren's unhappy expression when he entered the hospital just now, and asked, "You didn't come here today just to see me, did you? What's the matter?"

Xiren nodded lightly, hesitated for a moment, and said: "My mother sent my elder brother to look for me yesterday afternoon, saying that she wanted to redeem me from the mansion. I was sold to Jia's mansion by my mother and elder brother since I was young. I wanted to refuse, but suddenly hesitated again."

"Why hesitate?" Jia Yun asked softly.

Xiren was silent for a while, and then said: "I was fortunate enough to be sold to Jia's mansion. I eat and dress like my master, and I don't beat and scold at night, so I often regard Jia's mansion as my real home."

"Compared to the people in Jia's mansion, my biological mother and elder brother have no affection for me even though they are my relatives. This time they want to redeem me from the mansion, but they just want to earn some money from me. !"

"Secondly..." At this point, Xiren was a little hard to say, and couldn't help but looked up at Jia Yun.

I saw Jia Yun's eyes were warm and tender, her heart trembled, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Secondly... I want to come here to ask your opinion."

After she finished speaking, her face flushed, she buried her head in Jia Yun's arms, and remained motionless.

Jia Yun took a deep breath of Xi Ren's fragrant hair, pondered for a moment, and said: "Xi Ren, my opinion is that it's up to you to leave Jia's house, but most of my heart still hopes that you can come out." Out of the house."

Hearing this, Xiren didn't know what was going on, and his nose felt a little sore.

She looked up at Jia Yun, with tears in her eyes, her throat choked up and said, "Resentment... home, even if I leave the house, where can I go?"

She felt a little reconciled. Although Jia Yun gave her the answer, she didn't promise her. Didn't this bastard take advantage of it today?
Jia Yun was startled, and after a moment of pondering, she knew Xiren had misunderstood.

He smiled dumbly, tightened his slender waist tightly, pressed his forehead against hers, and said softly: "Come to my house, why else would I let you go out of the house? You, I was thinking about it just now!"

Xiren was overjoyed after hearing this, and lightly hammered Jia Yun's chest with his powder fist, complaining: "Who told you that you didn't make it clear just now, I thought you were a ungrateful person, Brother Yun, you can't blame me. Otherwise, I will die for you!"

Jia Yun took a bite of her small cherry mouth and said with a smile: "You, don't pretend to be smart from now on, haven't you heard the saying that being smart is against being smart and wrong? You still need to be more patient in everything. Only then can we draw conclusions, understand?"

"Understood." Xiren replied in a low voice, and then said: "However, even if I want to leave the mansion, I can't come out right away."

"At the end of the year, there will be a group of maids in the mansion at the end of the year. At that time, I will ask my wife for some kindness. Not only will I not need to waste money, but I will also have dozens of taels of settling expenses."

After hearing this, Jia Yun frowned and asked, "How much is the ransom money for the servant girl in Jia's mansion?"

"It's hard to say. According to the usual practice, a big maid like me needs to pay 200 taels of silver to be free." Xiren thought for a while and replied.

Jia Yun thought for a while, after opening the shop, as long as there are no accidents, the 200 taels of silver should be collected quickly.

So he nodded and said: "It's better to leave the mansion earlier, since you have already decided to come out, there is no need to waste any more time, lest you have long nights and dreams, and I will pay you the money you need to redeem yourself."

Xiren shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I've stayed in Jia's mansion for a long time, so I know the rules of the mansion.
It can be regarded as being kind to the Jia family, but if I want to leave the house now, outsiders will think that the Jia family is not good, and I will hate the old lady and the wife for no reason. The nature is different. "

Jia Yun felt that what Xiren said was right, so she stopped persuading her, and it was better not to offend Da Fang.

After the two of them got bored for a while, Xiren got the letter and felt at ease, so he hurried back.

"My shop will open tomorrow, you can come and have a look." When Xiren left, Jia Yun said with a smile.

Xiren hummed, turned around step by step, and reluctantly left.

After sending Xiren away, Jia Yun went to sit on the recliner, thinking: "Recently, we still have to step up and break through the first layer of "Yin Yang Wuji Kungfu", otherwise, even if the delicate girl stands in front of her, she will only be envious."

Ever since she met Charming, Jia Yun knew that the first level of "Yin Yang Wu Ji Gong" was laying the foundation stage, and she could only get close to women when she broke through to the second level.

If the Qi of Yuanyang is broken at the first level, not only will the power be lost, but there will also be other unpredictable risks.

Otherwise, with her charming looks, Jia Yun would have taken her into the house long ago.

After sitting for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Jia Yun got up and went to the house to say hello to Mrs. Bu, then turned around and walked to the shop.

The store used to be a rice store, but it has been around for some years. After renovation, the doors and windows have been replaced.

The stove in the store is completely dry and ready for use at any time, and tables, benches, chopping boards, storage racks, pots and pans, etc. are also in place.

Jia Yun came to the store, waved her hand, and gently put the two cylinders of liquor in the corner.

The wine vat is a bit big, and can hold five or six hundred catties. At the same time, Jia Yun also prepared ten small wine jars of one catty and several wine raisins of different sizes, which are convenient for use in sales.

After the wine was put away, Jia Yun came to the storage shelf again, took out ten bags of flour from the space and put them on.

As for other things, such as stewed soup, pork offal, scallions and coriander, etc., Jia Yun planned to let Jia go to his house to get them every morning.

The stewed soup was prepared by Jia Yun in advance, and now it is all stored in the space. Whether the stewed soup is good or not, the stewed soup is the soul, and the taste is all stored in it.

The reason why Jia Yun didn't make stewed soup in the store was also to keep it secret.

It's not that he can't trust Jia and the others, it's just that he has to be defensive.

The secret recipe for making stewed soup in his hands is the crystallization of wisdom obtained by countless predecessors and countless trials and errors. It is also the foundation for his future business prosperity and the ability to study with peace of mind.

After putting all the things away, Jia Yun went out and locked the door, and was about to go home when she saw a group of people in a corridor outside the Rongguo Mansion opposite, yelling, as if they were gambling.

"Jia Qin is there too!" Jia Yun's sharp eyes, although across the street, he saw Jia Qin at a glance.

After pondering for a moment, he didn't ask for trouble in the past. It is best not to entangle people who gamble. If they are entangled, they will not be able to shake off.

"There are also Jia Qiang, Jia Huan, Jia Cong, Jia Huang, Jia Rui, Jia Qiong, Jia Lin..." Jia Yun looked at the dozen or so Jia family children and remained silent.

The children of Jia's family did nothing, which made Jia's successor weak, and its power became weaker and weaker, unable to compete with the excluded.

As far as the things in front of me are concerned, if the Jia family does not decline, it will be too much for God!
