The Red Mansions

Chapter 38

When I got home, it was almost noon.

Seeing Jia Yun's dusty appearance, Mei Ren hurriedly boiled hot water and waited for him to bathe and change clothes.

After a while, Meiren blushed, stumbled and ran out of the room, her eyes were filled with resentment.

Jia Yun came out with a smile and said, "Don't worry, you will have a better night..."

"Bah, I didn't expect you, brother Yun, to be a bad person!" Meiren said angrily.

After finishing speaking, she ran to Bu's room to hide.

Jia Yun laughed a few times, sat on the recliner and drank tea, and muttered, "You girl still dare to tease me, don't I give you some power, I don't even know how many eyes Prince Ma has!"

Rongguofu.

Xiren served Jia Baoyu after taking a lunch break, went out of the outside room, whispered to Qingwen, then went out and went straight to Jia Yun's house.

Sister Feng's courtyard.

Just as Wang Xifeng was about to lie down and rest for a while, he thought that the Ching Ming Festival would be approaching in a few days, and there would definitely be a lot of people in the mansion to worship the ancestors, and he would set up a few tables to entertain the clansmen no matter what.

And the head chef of the big kitchen is old, and has been complaining for a long time, saying that the house does not respect the elderly, he is so old, and he is not allowed to go home to entertain his grandchildren, and he has never seen such a mean honor.

"Right now, Second Master Lian has gone to the south to find a chef. Sooner or later, he will have to replace that old thing. But brother Yun's cooking last time was full of praise after everyone ate it. Otherwise, invite him again. Once." Wang Xifeng secretly said.

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng called Ping'er over, and after a few words of advice, Ping'er withdrew and went directly to Jia Yun's house.

Honor Hall.

Mother Jia thought that in a few days to worship the ancestors during the Qingming Festival, she would have to set up a few tables. The last time Jia Yun came to help cook the palace dishes, she had a deep memory.

So before the lunch break, she ordered Yuanyang to go to Jia Yun at noon and ask Jia Yun to help cook in the house again.

……

Under the grape trellis, there is a cool breeze.

Jia Yun lay on the casual chair, squinting her eyes, watching Xi Ren tiptoe forward.

Xiren was about to disturb Jia Yun's nostrils with his hair, when Jia Yun opened his eyes and hugged her into his arms, scaring her into a pale face.

"Ah...you pretended to be sleeping, let me go!" Xiren said in a panic.

Jia Yun laughed straight, buried her head on Xiren's fair and tender neck, sniffed her body fragrance greedily, and said, "It's impossible to let go, I finally caught you, how can I just let you go like this?" let go?"

"Brother Yun... let me go, if Meiren sees it, I'll be ashamed to death!" Xiren begged for mercy in a tender voice.

Jia Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've cleaned up that girl, she's just a cat in the house and dare not come out!"

Hearing this, Xiren heaved a sigh of relief, lying in Jia Yun's arms, lightly hammered his chest, and whispered: "You can bully people, so tell me, did you eat Meiren?"

"Not yet, but soon." Jia Yun smiled.

Xiren had a resentful expression on his face, and said in a bad mood: "You have a grudge against Second Master Bao, right? His two personal maids have been hooked up by you..."

"What is hooking up? Have you ever said that about yourself?" Jia Yun asked with a smile.

Xiren was about to speak when suddenly his body froze and he raised his head dumbly, staring at Jia Yun with watery eyes, stammering: "You...your...hand, you put it in the wrong place..."

Jia Yun glanced down at the stormy waves, and whispered in her ear: "I didn't expect you to be so successful here, I really underestimated you."

As Xiren was about to speak, Jia Yun twitched her hand, quickly helped her up, and said softly, "Someone is here."

Xiren was stunned for a moment, hummed, his little face was flushed, his heart was beating wildly, he hurriedly arranged his clothes, and then said to Jia Yun, "I'll go to the house to find my charming sister."

With that said, he trotted into the house.

Soon, footsteps were heard in the alley outside the courtyard.

"The footsteps are light, it should be a woman." Jia Yun listened with her ears up, secretly thinking.

Sure enough, it was Ping'er who came.

I saw her covered in silk, gold and silver, beautiful face, plump figure, gentle and generous temperament, which made people get close to her.

"I said, why are there magpies calling in the courtyard? It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming!" Jia Yun saw Ping'er, her eyes lit up, and she stepped forward and said.

Ping'er stepped forward to salute, and said with a slight smile: "Brother Yun is serious, what kind of honored guest is a servant girl, but I dared to come here and disturb Brother Yun."

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Jia Yun welcomed Ping'er to the stone table and sat down to talk.

"Ms. Ping'er is coming to my house for the first time, right? But is there anything I can do for you?" Jia Yun asked straight after pouring a cup of tea for Ping'er.

After taking a sip of tea, Ping'er nodded and said with a smile: "My maidservant has been ordered by my grandma to invite Brother Yun to help the cook at the house in a few days. I wonder if Brother Yun is convenient for you."

Jia Yun shook her head and said: "Unfortunately, I will go to Qingshan Academy to report for school, but I am too tired for Miss Ping'er to make this trip."

"Qingshan Academy? Is it Qingshan Academy, one of the four major academies in the capital?" Ping'er stared at Jia Yun with piercing eyes, in disbelief.

Although the teaching quality of Qingshan Academy is indeed very good, it is also true that they charge expensive Shu Xiu, so no wonder Ping'er was surprised.

Jia Yun nodded and asked curiously, "Ping'er also knows about Qingshan Academy?"

"Hehe, Brother Yun underestimates people, doesn't he? Although the maidservant is in a deep house, it doesn't mean she doesn't understand the world. Qingshan Academy is well-known throughout the Zhou Dynasty, so how can the maidservant not know?" Ping'erqian laughed.

Jia Yun nodded and said, "Since Miss Ping'er knows about Qingshan Academy, she should know that there are only holidays on the first and second days of every month, and she must stay in the academy to study hard at other times."

Ping'er nodded and said, "Brother Yun, you don't need to explain too much. It's the most important thing for you to go to study. I believe that after the servant girl goes back and explains to my grandma, she won't blame you."

While talking, Yuanyang came in from the outside.

Seeing Ping'er was there, Yuanyang was surprised and said: "What day is it today, sister Ping'er, you don't go out all year round, why did you come here today?"

"Hee hee, as long as you go out, I can't get out?" Ping'er smiled and stood up, holding Yuanyang's hand and said with a smile.

"Miss Yuanyang, come and sit down and talk!" Jia Yun said with a smile, poured a cup of tea for Yuanyang, and said: "Miss Ping'er is coming here today. Aunt Feng ordered me to go to Rongyang in a few days. The government helps cook, but..."

He repeated what he said to Ping'er before, and then said: "It's not a coincidence, if I had received the letter earlier, I could have signed up later, but now that I have signed up, I have to abide by the rules of the academy."

Yuanyang smiled, pursed her lips and said, "Looks like I'm going to make a trip for nothing today. It's a coincidence that sister Ping'er and I have the same purpose, and I also got the old lady's order to invite Brother Yun. Go and cook."

As she spoke, she looked around and asked Jia Yun, "By the way, Brother Yun, where is the charming? Why don't you see her?"

"I'm talking to the attacker in the room." Jia Yun smiled.

Ping'er was surprised: "Sister Xiren is here too?"

Yuanyang smiled and said: "Hee hee, today is a good day, and our four sisters got together."

As she said, she got up and pulled Ping'er, and said to Jia Yun: "Brother Yun, since you are not free, I will reply to the old lady's words, but now our sisters are going to talk to Meiren and Xiren. Talk, okay?"

"Of course!" Jia Yun nodded.
