Chapter 227 The Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet Begins
In Jia Qing's courtyard, Jia Baoyu took a sip of the tea brought by Qingwen, and said regretfully:
"Alas, this second brother doesn't know what he's busy with all day long, and he hasn't seen anyone, is it so vulgar to be such a person?"
Qingwen beckoned Ling'er to serve tea to the ladies, and then stood aside. Hearing this, he glanced at Jia Baoyu angrily, but he was silent.
Tanchun said: "The second brother participated in the Luming banquet yesterday, and today he is going to visit the teachers. This is all etiquette, so naturally I have to go. ”
Jia Baoyu said: "I am the most impatient with these etiquettes. From this, it can be seen that the second brother is not as casual as me! ”
Saying that, Jia Baoyu took Qingwen's hand and said, "Sister Qingwen, isn't the second brother also very impatient with these etiquettes, and he complained about getting up early...... Zeng ......"
Jia Baoyu didn't say the last word continuously, and was stunned for a while before he said it. Guy just grabbed Qingwen's hand when he was thrown away by the other party.
"Second Master Bao is too careful, our second master didn't complain about anything, and asked us to change into a brand-new scholar's gown for him in the morning, saying that it would be more solemn to meet the teacher."
Qingwen took two steps back and said.
But everyone didn't have the heart to listen to what she said at this time, and they all looked at Jia Baoyu, who was stunned in place, faintly worried.
Cuimo, Musk Yue, and others, who followed Tanchun, Jia Baoyu and others, complained that Qingwen had done too much.
Although Jia Baoyu's behavior is a bit rude, no one in the Manchu Mansion who doesn't know that he is that kind of character will take care of it. Besides, Jia Baoyu really doesn't have those bad intentions, Fang Cai's actions are just his usual way of expressing closeness......
"Baoyu ......"
Yingchun was the first to open his mouth tentatively.
Jia Baoyu turned around, glanced at Yingchun blankly, and then looked back at Qingwen. Seeing her unmoved and expressionless face, Jia Baoyu suddenly felt a pain in her heart.
"I'm fine, second sister, I'll go back first."
Jia Baoyu had already realized that this was not his domain, and the maids here had no intention of getting close to him.
It's just someone else, he's a person who values appearance, and ordinary people can't put it in his eyes. But Qingwen, she is really the best maid born in Jiafu. In the past, when Jia's mother gave her to Jia Qing, he was still thinking that even when he arrived in Jia Qing's house, he could play together in the future.
Who knows, it's different. In her heart, she is afraid that she only has the second brother, and she can't take him in her eyes anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn't have treated him like Fang Cai......
Jia Baoyu and his maid left, but the Sanchun sisters stayed.
"Qingwen, you know that Second Master Bao has no malicious intentions, why do you want to be like this. In the end, there is some affection. ”
Tanchun said softly. In fact, she disagreed with Qingwen's approach very much in her heart, and lost her dignity and humility.
However, Qingwen is Jia Qing's maid, and strictly speaking, she is Jia's mother's maid, for the sake of the face of these two people, she is not easy to say bad things.
Qingwen said: "What the third girl said is true, I also know the temperament of the second master Bao. It's just because I know that I have to do it.
He is a gentleman, and he is with us all the time, if he only cares about his pleasure and does not care about anything else. He's nothing, but what if we get a bad name?
Therefore, simply lift your hand now, if Bao Er Ye is angry, just let us be punished. It's better than taking on those names! ”
Qingwen's words were sideways to explore the spring. She heard that the girl in front of her was probably all on Jia Qing, so she repeatedly emphasized the word "name" here.
Thinking about it again, it seems that her choice is so natural......
Tanchun suddenly remembered her own business. As a concubine of the public government, I don't know what the situation will be in the future.
Tanchun was silent, and Cui Mo next to him said: "Even so, you should be tactful." It's not that you don't know how much the old lady feels sorry for Second Master Bao, if you know that he is angry here, I don't know what will happen to you. ”
Qingwen said: "What is the temperament of Second Master Bao, don't you know, if it weren't for this, he would definitely not understand."
That's how it is now. If he figured it out, it would be our creation. If you can't figure it out, or think that I am angry with him, I told my wife and the old lady that I will be punished and punished, but it is only this time, and there will be more rights and wrongs in the future. ”
Qingwen's attitude is so resolute that it is difficult for others to say anything.
In the end, Tanchun said: "Okay, this matter is nothing, with the temper of the second brother of Bao, most of them will not be forgotten after half a day, and there will be nothing else like you said."
If the second brother comes over, don't forget to remind him that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and let him do the lantern riddles in advance. Otherwise, it will not be as good as him at that time, but remember. ”
As soon as Tanchun said this, everyone thought that most of them were really like this, so they shifted their minds to tomorrow's Mid-Autumn Festival, and each thought about what they could do at that time.
didn't say a few words like this, Yingchun and Tanchun took Xichun, who didn't see Jia Qing and was a little bored, out of Jia Qing's yard.
……
In Kyushu, where there are no clouds, the most reunion night is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The second day is the Midyear Festival, which is commonly known as the Mid-Autumn Festival. The evening of this day is a festival used by the ancients for family reunion, appreciating the laurel and the moon, and sending lovesickness sorrows.
The Jia family in Rongguo Mansion, Wang Xifeng has been preparing for today's grand event since the day before yesterday.
Jia Mu likes to be lively, especially in such festivals. Therefore, Wang Xifeng had to work hard to arrange related matters.
This is also an important means for her to curry favor with Jia's mother.
Before night fell, behind the Rongqing Hall, in the wide hall in front of Jia's mother's three flower halls, there was a big red carpet and large and small strip benches, which were full of various fruits, wines and dishes, for Jia's mother's night banquet tonight.
"Hurry up, the old lady has already packed up, and she is probably coming here with someone.
Now you have to look carefully, and you can put what you need to put in the right place. There are also girls, grandmothers, and wives, but they are also packed up, and they are all attentive. The old lady is happy tonight, if you omission and upset the old lady, don't blame me for not reminding you then. ”
Wang Xifeng was here early in the morning to command and dispatch, during which he took the time to take a look at Jia's mother, and saw that Jia's mother was about to leave, so he hurriedly rushed here to make the final deployment. Finally, he called a few housekeepers aside and told him so.
The mothers-in-law in charge naturally responded in unison, and each went to check the scope of his jurisdiction. Wang Xifeng also walked through the field casually to see if there was anything that needed to be improved.
"The old lady and the old lady, the young lady and the young master have arrived......"
After a while, the crisp voice of a maid came from outside the courtyard wall. Wang Xifeng hurriedly went over to greet him.
"Ancestor, you're here."
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a large number of people flocking to this side, led by Jia Mu. Wang Xifeng hurriedly stepped forward to mix with Jia's mother and said hello.
Mother Jia entered the hall, saw the scene of wealth and nobility, and looked up at the sky, and found that the terrain here was open, and it was really suitable for drinking and admiring the moon, so she nodded with satisfaction, and said:
"Yes, that's good!
Tonight, our family is here to drink and admire the moon, and have a good time. ”
Then he turned back to the people behind him and said, "Okay, no one is allowed to leave before the fourth watch!" ”
Everyone hurriedly agreed, and then followed the steps of the people in front of them and walked into the hall together.
