Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 398: The aftermath of the incident
Grand View Garden opened the door to Lai Shangrong's convenience, causing quite a discussion in Rong Mansion.

But as the news of Yingchun and Yingchun's marriage came out, the voices of discussion became much quieter. Most people talking about this matter attributed it to the convenience of Lai Shangrong's visit to Lin Daiyu and Yingchun.

Although I can't help but feel a little puzzled, why didn't the engagement date with Lin Daiyu begin?

However, for these servants, Lin Daiyu is a sojourner after all, not like Yingchun, she is a serious lady of Rongfu.

In addition, Jia Zheng's illness has been widely spread in the palace, and Jia She holds an important position as the clan leader. It can be said that one thing is going down and the other is going up, and the tide is rising in the coming spring.

There are even many smart people who secretly guessed that Jia She's arrangement may not reflect the idea of ​​who is the speaker in this huge government.

If it had been in the past, the park would have opened a door of convenience to Lai Shangrong, Tanchun would have been overjoyed.

Now, with the news of welcoming the Spring Festival and celebrating the Spring Festival, I just feel mixed emotions.

Recalling the information in the Di newspaper, I am afraid that Lai Shangrong already knew the real reason for his father's dismissal from office, so he did not respond for a long time.

Now, as soon as Jia Zheng returned to Beijing, news came about the Spring Festival and the New Year.

I can only sigh at the luck of welcoming the Spring Festival and complain at the same time, Master, I was wrong!

And the lucky man in Zhujin Tower is sitting on the couch with a sewing basket on his legs.

Just as he was about to cut his head, he suddenly remembered something. He looked up at Siqi and asked doubtfully: "You...how do you know Brother Lai's foot size?"

When the news of the wedding came, I couldn't help but feel happy about the Spring Festival. I couldn't help but think of Lai Shangrong's affection and care, and I inevitably wanted to do something for him.

It's just the things I usually embroider, such as Yuanyang embroidered handkerchiefs, purses, etc., but I'm too shy to do it.

Seeing her frowning about this, Siqi blurted out without thinking, suggesting that she make two pairs of shoes and socks for Lai Shangrong. Unexpectedly, he revealed that he knew the secret of Lai Shangrong's size.

"Uh……"

Siqi hesitated when he heard the words, and then said in shame and anger: "I kindly told the young lady, why did the young lady suspect me?

At that time, the slave's cousin Pan You'an made a mistake, and thanks to the uncle's rescue, his life was saved. The slave was also grateful, so she made some pairs of shoes and socks for the uncle.

Now the lady just needed it, so she took it out.

If it wasn't for being rescued back then, knowing that the uncle has always been kind, how could the slaves come to ask for help for the young lady? "

Even if it was out of gratitude, there was no reason to make shoes and socks for her husband. Moreover, in order to repay Lai Shangrong for saving his life, she gave him more than just a few pairs of shoes and socks. Therefore, the more she said this, the more guilty she became, and her voice became louder and louder. Say lower.

Fortunately, Yingchun was too distracted to notice this detail.

She had preconceived the idea that Lai Shangrong had a deep affection for her, ignoring that Siqi was originally suggested by him to be sent to Qin Keqing to stay for a period of time.

I even thought that Si Qi might be grateful, but the reason why Lai Shangrong interacted with Si Qi in private was to find out what he liked.

"You will also marry me in the future, Brother Lai just wants to..."

Speaking of this, Yingchun blushed in embarrassment. After all, she still couldn't say anything useful, so she could only say: "Why should I doubt you?"

The master and the servant were each having their own thoughts, when they heard an announcement coming from the door: "Miss Bao is here!"

Yingchun quickly put the sewing basket behind her and stood up to greet her.

"Sister Bao!"

Xue Baochai, who entered the door, glanced at the sewing basket behind her and said with a smile: "I said, why haven't I seen my second sister for a while? It turns out that she is busy working as a female celebrity! Could it be that she did it for Brother Lai?"

Unlike Tanchun, she thought that she had been granted a marriage by the emperor and could not marry her, so Lai Shangrong retreated to the next best thing and chose to let Yingchun do both.

Although Yingchun is just his spare tire, he will marry into Lai's family anyway, and he will rarely be close to anyone in the future.

Although Lai Shangrong fell in love with him, Yingchun was a serious wife after all, and she had to take care of his face.My grandma, who had framed the blame for the Spring Festival, could still shirk the guilt of those who didn't know it. Now that the news has come, I have to make up for it at least.

In particular, Yingchun lost a lot of gold because of this. If Lai Shangrong met Yingchun and didn't have a decent reputation, he found out the secret and traced it, and found out that it was the mother-in-law in his courtyard who caused the trouble. He might not have a grudge.

Therefore, I asked my mother-in-law to bring the tired golden phoenix and come to Zhujin Tower to return it.

Yingchun's whereabouts were revealed by her, and she couldn't help but feel guilty.

He bowed his head and said, "It's just that you have nothing to do, just make some gadgets!"

Siqi was not angry with Xue Baochai for threatening Lin Zhixiao's family and blaming Nanny Yingchun.

At this moment, seeing her frowning in front of Baochai, she suddenly became a little angry.

He smiled and said, "Miss Bao is so busy, how come you still have time to come to our place!"

Not long ago, Mrs. Wang handed over the errands in the palace to Wang Xifeng again. Xue Baochai is now alone, where else can she be busy?
Although there is a difference between master and servant, she cannot replace Yingchun, but it is not convenient for Xue Baochai to criticize this kind of sarcasm.

"Girl Feng was in poor health a while ago, and my aunt asked me to share the burden for her, and I didn't dare to neglect it. It's just that our daughter's family has never taken care of this. It's inevitable that it's a little difficult to take care of everything. She just cares about the errands in the house, but she doesn't control herself well. 's yard.

Not only did Feng girl get well, I also had some time to spare. Only then did I find out that the nanny in my second sister’s house had stolen my sister’s head and face a while ago and gave it to my mother-in-law in the courtyard.

Now that I have redeemed it, it will return to its original owner! "

With that said, he handed over the golden phoenix that welcomed the spring.

Si Qi's cynicism actually gave her an excuse. Although the reason was a bit far-fetched, it was still an excuse.

Yingchun tremblingly took the tired golden phoenix in front of her, and she couldn't control her feelings for a moment. When the emperor granted the marriage, she was afraid that Lai Shangrong would be in trouble, so she asked Si Qi to persuade Lai Shangrong to calm down.

Unexpectedly, at first he was noncommittal, but he still insisted on his own opinion and had to vent his anger on his behalf.

Originally, I was worried that Lai Shangrong would really be frivolous and hands-on as Mrs. Xing said, which made me a little timid.

Now, I can't wait to throw myself into my arms immediately, almost hoping to see through the situation.

Xue Baochai saw her expression of excitement and thought she was grateful to him.

After all, a suit of hair is nothing to her, but to Ermu Yingchun, whose father does not love her mother, she inevitably regards it as a treasure.

Xue Baochai was very satisfied with Yingchun's reaction and said: "It's all my fault for my sister's lax control. I should redeem it for my second sister. There's no need to be polite, sister. You'd better ask Si Qi to collect it as soon as possible!"

It was only then that Yingchun realized that she had lost her composure. She gave a salute and covered it up: "It's all about letting my sister spend the money. My sister thanked me here."

However, although he acquiesced to Baochai's good intentions, he did not accept her suggestion to keep it. Instead, he held the tired golden phoenix tightly in his hands and polished it repeatedly.

In the conversation that followed, Yingchun seemed a little lost in thought.

Xue Baochai, on the other hand, just wanted to eliminate hidden dangers and didn't pay much attention to the spare tire of Yingchun.

So, after chatting for a while, we excused ourselves to leave.

As soon as Xue Baochai left, Yingchun couldn't hold back anymore, and hugged the tired Jinfeng tightly to her chest.

Si Qi still couldn't see it and said with a smile: "The master treats the young lady like this, the young lady should also express her gratitude. Since the East Point Gate is opened for the young lady, why don't you go and invite the uncle to come over in the evening?"

Although we are full of love for spring when we welcome the spring, and we wish we could throw ourselves into our arms, we still have some considerations in the end.

Shyly said: "How can this be..."

Having said this, he hurriedly handed the tired golden phoenix to Siqi, turned around, picked up the sewing basket, and put it on his lap again. He lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes and said like a mosquito: "It's better to wait until the shoes are ready and sent over... …”
