Jia Yujing of Red Mansion

Chapter 107 Bringing Wang Yuyan to meet the ladies

Jia Qiong returned to her room, where Wang Yuyan was reading under the lamp.

Seeing Jia Qiong's gloomy look, she asked strangely: "Why don't you look so happy? What did auntie tell you?"

Jia Qiong lay directly on the bed and said lazily: "It's nothing. Auntie said they were moving out, so I just felt a little uncomfortable for a while."

Wang Yuyan consoled her: "My aunt told me in Jinling that there is nothing we can do about it.

It's really inappropriate for my cousin to live here anymore, and it's easy to attract criticism.

Let's buy a big house later, and just bring my aunt and the others over to live in it from time to time. Tomorrow I'll have someone look around to see if there's anything suitable. "

Jia Qiong nodded and said, "Well, there's no rush to buy a house, just look for it slowly.

Tomorrow you come with me to the Rongguo Mansion to meet the female family members of the Ningrong Mansion. From now on, we will have to move around frequently. "

After hearing this, Wang Yuyan said a little nervously: "Then I have to prepare some meeting gifts so that I can give them to your sisters when the time comes. What do you think is a suitable gift?"

Jia Qiong said nonchalantly: "I don't understand this either. Just go to the warehouse tomorrow and pick out some gadgets from Nan Province.

I'm a little sleepy, let's go to bed first. "

Wang Yuyan was furious when she saw Jia Qiong acting like it had nothing to do with her.

She walked to the bed in a few steps, twisted Jia Qiong's ears, and pulled him up from the bed.

"You come with me to choose a gift now. If you don't choose well, you won't be able to sleep!"

Jia Qiong quickly begged for mercy: "It hurts, it hurts, my dear, please let go, I'll just go."

Wang Yuyan then let go and walked out of the room first, followed by Jia Qiong with her head drooping.

He lamented in his heart: There is a Hedong lion in the family, and it is difficult for the husband to maintain his strength.

Then he thought bitterly: I will have to take care of you soon, and I will make you throw away your armor and kneel down to beg for mercy!
After breakfast the next day, Jia Qiong took Wang Yuyan and two maids to Rongguo Mansion. They were led by the housekeeper Lin Zhixiao's family and went directly to the outside of Jia Mu's courtyard.

Jia Mu's eldest maid Yuanyang had been waiting outside for a long time. When she saw them coming over, she hurriedly bent her knees and saluted, saying: "My maid Yuanyang has seen Uncle Qiong and Grandma Qiong.

The old ladies, ladies, grandmothers and girls are all waiting for you inside. "

Jia Qiong nodded and said, "Lead the way."

"The old lady has been thinking about you and grandma since yesterday, and asked me to guard the door early in the morning.

I have been serving the old lady for several years, and I have never seen him care so much about anyone. "

Yuanyang smiled and said as he led the way.

Jia Qiong glanced at Jia Mu's maid with admiration, thinking that she was indeed the golden mandarin duck with a beautiful heart and beautiful mouth in Cao Gong's works.

She has a waist and slim shoulders, an oval face, dark hair, a high nose, and a few freckles on both sides of her cheeks.

His words and deeds are polite and elegant, not rude but also friendly, making people feel like spring breeze.

The last time Jia Qiong came to Rong Mansion for a family dinner, she didn't see any mandarin ducks.

It seems that she was still young at that time, and it was probably after Jia Qiong left Beijing that she was promoted to the position of maid.

In Jia Mu's courtyard, a large group of maids gathered in the corridor.

Seeing Yuanyang leading a well-dressed, handsome man and a stunning beauty in, they all began to whisper secretly.

"This is Uncle Qiong. He is even more handsome than Mr. Lian."

"So is Grandma Qiong. She looks like the fairy in the painting. She is so beautiful."

"They are both so tall and they look so well matched."

……

Arriving at the door of the main room, Yuanyang opened the door curtain first and announced to the room: "Old lady, Uncle Qiong and Grandma Qiong are here."

In the Rongqing Hall, in addition to the elders such as Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, Wang Xifeng, Sanchun, Baochai Daiyu and others all stood up to greet him.

Jia Qiong first brought Wang Yuyan to greet the elders.

When it was Mrs. Wang's turn, she introduced a 40-year-old woman with a kind face and a slightly wealthy appearance.

"You all know Brother Qiong. This is my biological sister, the head wife of the Xue family in Jinling. You should also call her aunt."

Jia Qiong and Jia Qiong both saluted and said, "I've met Aunt Xue."

Aunt Xue quickly helped the two of them up and said with a smile on her face: "I've always heard people say that the Jia family has a first-class fairy.

If you look at it today, you can see that they are clearly a pair. "

Jia Qiong smiled and said, "Auntie is so impressed."

After speaking, he pointed behind her and said, "This must be the cousin of the Xue family." Xue Baochai, who had been standing behind Aunt Xue and quietly looking at Jia Qiong and the two, was suddenly spotted by Jia Qiong, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

She calmed her mind, stepped forward and saluted, and said, "Little sister Baochai, I have met Brother Qiong and my sister-in-law."

Jia Qiong nodded, and just as he was about to speak, Wang Yuyan stepped forward to help Xue Baochai.

She smiled and said: "My sister is born with good looks, and my aunt is really lucky."

Xue Baochai said shyly: "Sister-in-law is the beauty of the city, and the country is beautiful and fragrant."

Jia Qiong then introduced Li Wan, Wang Xifeng and many younger sisters to Wang Yuyan.

When introducing Lin Daiyu, Wang Yuyan took her hand cordially and said: "So you are sister Daiyu, and you are indeed beautiful.

I often hear your brother Qiong mention you, and today I finally met him.

From now on, my sister will have to go to our place more and walk around. "

When Lin Daiyu heard what Wang Yuyan said, her heart warmed up and she felt very fond of this sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, if you don't mind her, I will always bother you."

Wang Yuyan smiled and said: "Cousin Xu and his family will move to a new house in a few days, and I will be the only one left in the back house.

There is usually no one to talk to, which makes it very boring just thinking about it.

Sisters-in-law and sisters, you can always come to my place to sit and talk with me when you have nothing to do. I really want it.

By the way, today is the first time we meet, so I prepared some small gifts for my three sisters-in-law and sisters.

Not many, just three or four pieces per person.

You take your pick and take whatever you like.

If you don't want to go back and reward others, that's fine, but don't let me take it back. "

Wang Yuyan called two maids up, each of them holding a large gift box.

Inside are some small items such as pearls, jade jewelry, and Luo Shan palace flowers.

You look at me and I look at you among the sisters, but you are too embarrassed to be the first to choose.

Wang Xifeng, who was responsible for the lively atmosphere, finally caught the opportunity. She first quietly pulled Youshi next to her.

Then he said with a smile: "Oh, how can this be good? As a sister-in-law, I have to take advantage of my sister-in-law.

They are thin-skinned, so naturally they are embarrassed.

I'm thick-skinned and don't care about this, so let me choose for them. "

After Wang Xifeng finished speaking, she was about to go up to pick out a gift. You understood and hurriedly held her back.

She smiled and said: "That won't work, let you choose for us, even if we don't let you choose all the good ones.

Sisters, let’s make our own choices, but don’t let Feng girl take all the advantages. "

With Wang Xifeng and Youshi leading the way, all the Jia family sisters also put aside their reserve and gathered together to make a selection.

Yingying and Yanyan were full of smiles, and Jia Qiong found them pleasing to the eye.

Wang Yuyan also stepped forward to help everyone and make recommendations.

"These earrings are elegant and dignified. Sister-in-law Zhu wears them just right."

"I had this Five Phoenix Hairpin made by a master from Jinling Wanbao Tower many years ago, but I always thought it was too beautiful and I never wore it.

It is just right for Sister-in-law Lian to wear, and she looks even brighter and more attractive. "

"Sister Tanchun has a heroic spirit, and this ruby ​​necklace matches her perfectly."

……

Seeing Wang Yuyan getting along with everyone so quickly, Jia Mu and the others secretly thought that she was indeed the daughter of the prime minister's family, and her behavior was very grand.

Jia Mu laughed and said, "Brother Qiong really married a good wife."

Aunt Xue agreed: "No, no wonder he can be named the county lord. Even nobles from the royal family may not have this magnanimity."

The praises continued for a while, and Wang Yuyan instantly became the protagonist of the party.

Only Mrs. Wang looked calm and kept fiddling with the beads in her hand.

She was originally dissatisfied with Jia Zheng because he used Jia Qiong to teach Baoyu a lesson.

Now that he has married a daughter-in-law who not only has a distinguished family background, but also has the title of County Lord, which is much higher than his fifth-grade imperial title, she can feel happy.
