Chapter 205: Copying Books (Part II)
It snowed lightly overnight, and when it was close to noon, the Jia Mansion was covered with snow, and the eaves, courtyards, and gardens were covered with snow. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
When it snowed, it was cold outside, Lin Daiyu was delicate and frail, and after getting up in the morning, she read a book in the house to relieve her boredom. The maids lit charcoal pots, brewed hot tea, and served.
Shi Xiangyun, who lived with him, took Cui Wei out to find Tanchun stubborn.
When Daiyu was flipping through the book, she saw Baoyu coming in from outside wearing white arrow sleeves, and her expression was elegant. chuckled, "Where did this come from?" ”
Baoyu said depressedly: "Call the master out early in the morning to meet guests outside." Sitting on the chair next to Daiyu, he took the hot tea handed by the maid Snow Goose, drank it urgently, turned his head and spit it in the charcoal basin.
Daiyu couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, she had a pleasant and graceful style, and asked curiously: "Brother Huan'er is now a world-famous prodigy, and he is the youngest person in the dynasty, who wouldn't want to see him in the mansion?" Uncle doesn't take him with him, but takes you with him, what is the reason? ”
A smug smile appeared on Baoyu Dayuan's face, "My sister asked me, where do I know my master's thoughts?" I guess it's probably because the old man doesn't like him. ”
Daiyu nodded slightly, agreeing with this explanation. The relationship between Jia Huan and his uncle is very cold. She knows.
After a few jokes, Baoyu looked around and asked, "Hey, Sister Yun is not here?" ”
Daiyu smiled: "She went to the third sister's place." It is expected to be in the Mochizuki residence of the ring brother now. Last night, she came back and said that Brother Huan wanted her sisters to help her copy the notes of the Four Books and the Book of Poetry. It is said that it was corrected by the great master of Tixue. ”
Baoyu shook his head and said disdainfully: "Brother Huan'er is a beetle." Thinking about his work all day long. Bring Sister Yun to the bone. What is there to read in the Four Books? I can't read a word. ”
Daiyu smiled lightly and teased: "Look at what Second Master Bao is capable of." Dare to say these words in front of your uncle. ”
Baoyu laughed wryly. If he dares to say this in front of the master, it's strange that he won't be pumped a dozen boards.
While he was talking, Zijuan came in from outside and said with a smile: "Hey, the second master is here." He said to Daiyu again: "Girl, Miss Shi said that she would not go back here for dinner at noon." My sister and sister are all eating at Brother Huan'er's. ”
Baoyu said strangely: "What, in addition to Sister Yun, the third sister, there are other sisters in Mochizukiju?" ”
Zijuan smiled and said, "In addition to our girl, the second girl, the third girl, the fourth girl, Miss Bao, and Miss Shi are all here." ”
Baoyu's smug mood just now suddenly became extremely bad, and she sat in a daze. All along, the sisters and sisters in the family have been stubborn with him. He beat his master during the Spring Festival last year, and he also thought that if he buried the tears of his sisters and sisters, he would be willing to die. But since Jia Huan returned home, his sisters and sisters have moved around with him more. Now it's even helping him copy books.
Daiyu smiled indifferently, "Oh, I see." I'll go to eat in front of the old lady with Bao Erye in a while. ”
She didn't care whether to go or not, Jia Huan was stubborn. Besides, Jia Huan didn't give her a post, nor did she send a maid to invite her, could she still run over to help him copy books for free?
…
Mochizuki was in the center, and Jia Huan entertained the sisters and sisters of Jiafu who had helped him copy it for half an hour: rice boiled in white japonica rice, a few plates of green vegetables, fried cucumbers with eggs, eggplant, pepper oil and ulva sauce, bird's nest simmered tofu, pigeon eggs. The taste is on the light side. But all generations of wealthy people have a light taste and eat very exquisitely. The same is true of these girls in Jiafu.
Jia Huan's treatment in Jia's mansion is very good, only half a step worse than the treatment of the eldest lord Jia Yu. The delicacies in the kitchen of Jiafu, he sent Qingwen to say hello in advance, and he could take them at will. However, Jia Huan usually asks Qingwen to give some silver. This is the way to do it.
After having lunch together and eating together, everyone went back to Jia Huan's inner study together. The inner study is next door to Jia Huan's bedroom, and you can go through a bright hall.
There are now five tables in the study, which serve as bookcases. It is full of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones. Coupled with the maids who followed up and waited, the study seemed a little full. Jia Huan's position is behind his desk.
The number of words in the Four Books and the Five Classics is not much, but there are a lot of notes as annotations. Jia Huan has five thick notebooks in hand, all of which are bound with thread. Now the thread is disassembled, and Jia Huan has sent the number page by page to Baochai, Shi Xiangyun, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun. When they're done transcribing, come back and change the page.
The workload is a bit heavy, but Jia Huan is not in a hurry. took the hairpin, cloud, ying, tan, and cherish as "coolies" in the twelve hairpins to copy books, and he did it. It's forgivable for a little longer!
Listening to their jokes, Jia Huan now somewhat understands Jia Baoyu's feelings, why he has to mix in the rouge pile of Jiafu. It is really the appearance, temperament and temperament of the twelve hairpins are all first-class. Being in it, listening to them laugh and laugh with them is an excellent enjoyment and experience. Like him now.
Outside the window, in the cold winter season, light snow falls. The study is as warm as spring, and the beauties gather, smiling and smiling. The scenery is like this.
Jia Huan smiled slightly, put away his sigh, looked at the falling snow outside the window, and sorted out his own things behind the desk. He didn't copy the book, but was sorting out the information collected by Qian Huai, Hu Xiaosi and others, and he was looking for the students in the management training class. their parents, positions, factions, relatives.
As soon as Jia Huan finished writing, there was a faint fragrance around him, which was quiet and pleasant. Jia Huan looked up and saw Baochai standing beside him with a chuckle, as if it had been for a while. Wearing a light purple cardigan, she is elegant and beautiful. Combing the girl's hair in a bun, with a beautiful step in the bun. Ruyu's earlobes have agate-colored earrings, neat bangs, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, which are bright and indescribable. There is an indescribable temperament.
Jia Huan couldn't help but chuckle, looked at her crystal black eyes, and said softly: "Sister Bao..., have you finished copying a page?" ”
Baochai smiled softly and agreed, "Hmm." "There are some different emotions in my heart. Give Jia Huan the two pages in his hand.
Baochai's words are upright and beautiful. Neat regular script. Jia Huan put the pages of the book in order. But instead of immediately giving Bao Chai the new pages, he was ready to make small talk with her for a while.
Baochai didn't mind, looked at the paper on the desk, and asked curiously, "Brother Huan, what are you writing?" ”
"It's about ethnography. I want to figure out their relationships. Sister Bao, is the lunch meal to your taste? ”
"It's good." Baochai chuckled gracefully and asked, "Didn't you send Sister Lin a post to invite her to be naughty?" ”
Jia Huan explained with a smile: "I wrote it in the morning, but I haven't had time to deliver it yet." I didn't send it at noon, for fear that Sister Lin would be too careful. On the desk, he took out the post he wrote in the morning and showed it to Baochai, "Sister Bao, look." ”
He didn't care much about whether Lin Daiyu came or not, after all, he didn't know him very well. came to make a petty character, he was not willing to accommodate. It's not good.
Baochai took it, picked out the one written for Lin Daiyu, and said softly: "Sister Lin doesn't come because she is probably uncomfortable." You still write a post and invite her to come to naughty. It's better to write than not to write. ”
Jia Huan's heart was slightly warm, Sister Bao was obviously planning for him, lest he and Lin Daiyu be separated. Among so many grandchildren, the old lady hurts Daiyu and Baoyu the most. nodded, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll listen to Sister Bao." "Take the post, fill in the date, and ask Qingwen to send the post to Daiyu.
Baochai stood at the desk, watching Jia Huan pick up the pen and make the payment, and smiled slightly. The words of the ring brothers are actually very good.
…
Daiyu accepted Jia Huan's invitation and came over at about 90 o'clock the next morning. She was followed by Zijuan, Baoyu, and Raider. When I went to the study, I saw Jia Huan and the sisters copying, laughing.
Daiyu wears a big red feather satin gown, with a posture of "delicate flowers shine on the water, weak willows support the wind", charming and beautiful. Because of the smile: "Brother Huan'er, I thought you would be busy copying books here, so you are laughing here." ”
Jia Huan came out from behind the desk to greet Daiyu and said with a smile: "It was my sisters and sisters who were playing and talking together." ”
Qingwen, Ruyi sat upright, poured tea. With the arrival of Lin Daiyu, Baoyu and others, the study was very lively.
Shi Xiangyun, who was sitting next to Tanchun, said with a smile: "Sister Lin, I told you last night, you don't believe it." "They say it's copying books, but it's actually quite easy. It's just that Brother Huan'er is thoughtful, and the sisters are doing their best to help him.
smiled again: "Love (2) brother, don't you say you can't come?" Why did you come too? ”
Exposing it to Shi Xiangyun, Baoyu was not annoyed, and defended: "I thought yesterday that the master was going to ask me to go outside to meet guests today. There was no one today, so I came with Sister Lin. ”
Jia Huan knew Jia Baoyu's temperament, but whenever the beauties were together, no matter what he did, he had to lean over, smiled faintly, and arched his hand: "I've seen Second Brother Bao." ”
Baoyu answered. I'm actually a little depressed in my heart. He originally thought that the relationship between his sister and sister was good, but now, the sisters in the house are close to Jia Huan, and he and Sister Lin seem to be marginalized.
Jia Huan didn't care. He doesn't look down on Baoyu. Baoyu has a very distant attitude towards him. If you can't see it, you can't see it.
Thinking about it, Jia Huan remembered something: In other words, what would happen if Baoyu made a big move to drop jade in his study now?
I'm afraid, the result won't be like the one in the eighth year of Yongzhi, right?
Jia Huan smiled slightly.
…
Daiyu sat for a while, and also planned to help Jia Huan copy the book. Because, from time to time, the sisters' topic is the sentences from the Four Books and the Five Classics when copying the book. Moreover, she also wanted to see the level of the scriptures and righteousness of the great masters. How is it better than her father, Sanding Jiatanhua?
Jia Huan asked the mother-in-law to move a table in, and fought between Baochai and Xiangyun. Daiyu asked Zijuan to go back to her room and get a few brushes, and sit down to copy.
Baoyu walked around, saying a few words from time to time. Ask what the Arabic numerals in the upper right corner of the note are, and discuss the meaning of the scriptures with his sisters and sisters, and explain his opinions.
In the notes, the explanations are very simple sentences. For example: in the Book of Songs: Qingqingzi Yin, leisurely my heart, the official explanation is that this is a nostalgia for school and classmates. It is not okay to understand that a woman misses a man.
Jia Baoyu was very discussant. Shi Xiangyun, Tanchun and others laughed and debated with him from time to time.
Although Baoyu is talking nonsense, the work efficiency has decreased a lot. But Jia Huan just smiled behind the desk and didn't care about Baoyu. It's just a little kid who wants to ask for the attention of beautiful women. But, I'm sorry, Second Brother Bao, I won't give you a thumbs up.
The study was talking lively, and Daiyu sighed lightly: "This sentence is well solved." ”
Baoyu hurriedly leaned over to look. (To be continued.) )
