Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall.
Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, and Sister Feng gathered together to play dominoes, accompanied by the quiet and gentle Li Wan sitting on the brocade pier.
Sister Feng saw that Jia Mu's eyebrows were knotted and she was not as comfortable as before. She was moved in her heart. She was a very thoughtful person and guessed that Jia Mu was deserted for a while because all the girls in the house were gone. She felt a little sad.
After a pause, Sister Feng said with a smile: "Ancestor, I don't have much left here. You have to be more merciful and leave some money for makeup or powder, otherwise I won't be able to see anyone."
As soon as these words came out, several people laughed. Little did they know that Sister Feng was a naughty joke. Sister Feng was from a low-income family and had a good temper. .
Jia Mu also laughed out loud with her face bowed, and cursed: "You are also a housekeeper. A lot of money has passed through your hands, and you still care about these three melons and two dates."
Sister Feng didn't take it seriously when she heard the words. She pursed her lips and said, "What my ancestor said is not my money. It's just a hobby. If I really want to put the money in my pocket, I won't be able to save my face." "
The housekeeper's money belongs to the public account, not personal money. How could Sister Feng not be able to tell this clearly? Even if she had some unclear things in private, how could she talk nonsense in front of Jia Mu and others.
Mother Jia glanced at Sister Feng with a smile, but she didn't dwell on this topic. Instead, she laughed and scolded: "If you have the ability, you can earn it back on your own. You are so angry at me. You have been practicing for so many years."
Sister Feng still had a thick smile on her face, but her tone was a bit aggrieved: "How can I do this? It seems that the copper coins in my box haven't been heated yet, and I have to go to my ancestors."
The funny words immediately made Jia Mu and others laugh again, and for a while, the hall was full of laughter.
Not long after, Baoyu walked in, which attracted Jia's mother to play cards without wanting to play cards. She hugged her grandson and couldn't put it down. Baoyu also enjoyed it very much and cooperated wholeheartedly.
Perhaps this is called running in both directions, and it is strange that Jia Mu treats Baoyu differently.
Jia Mu rubbed Baoyu's belt and said kindly, "Are you tired of studying today?"
When Baoyu heard this, he immediately cried and made a sad face. He was a person who loved to collect makeup and powder, but those sisters were all taken to the palace and had no place to live together. In addition, their father kept a close eye on them, so they had no choice but to study.
Thinking of this, Baoyu didn't bother to reply to Jia Mu. He rolled his eyes and asked with hope in his eyebrows: "Grandma, my sisters have been going to my brother-in-law for a while. When can they come back?"
God knows how deep the pain in his heart was from the experience of studying these days. If Xiren hadn't pulled him, he would have been unable to hold it back. Now that a long time had passed, he had to remind his grandmother quickly to let the sisters come back. As long as The younger sisters are back. If you act like a spoiled child, you can stop studying and just play with them. The big guys can live the same playful life together.
Read, read, read a lot of books.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Sister Feng, who reacted the fastest, looked at Baoyu with her beautiful eyes, and said in a slightly joking tone: "Baoyu, this brother, misses his sister."
It’s time to say that I miss Sister Lin.
Baoyu was a little embarrassed when Sister Feng pointed it out on the spot. She glared with her "pure" eyes, and her jade face turned a bright red, like a peach blossom in March.
When Jia Mu heard this, her heart moved, but she didn't reply to Baoyu's words. She looked at Sister Feng and asked, "How long have they been there?" Sister Feng smiled and replied, "It's been half a month."
Mother Jia frowned. Originally, Yuan Chun had proposed that the sisters go to the palace to play with them for a while and avoid the heat. But now it was only half a month before they were rushed. It didn't seem good.
As an outsider, Aunt Xue couldn't say much, but she kept paying attention to Jia Mu. According to her thoughts, she still hoped that Jia Mu would not take the person back for the time being. The longer she could live in the palace, the better.
Sister Feng was speechless after replying to Jia Mu's words. She understood that Jia Mu actually missed Er Yatou and the others. After all, older people like the feeling of being under Cheng Huan's knees. The house was deserted at the moment, which seemed I feel uncomfortable now, and I wasn’t very interested in touching the dominoes before.
When Baoyu saw that Jia Mu was silent, he became anxious. He pulled Jia Mu and said coquettishly: "Grandma, Sister Lin is so delicate. How can you rest assured in the palace? It's better to put Sister Lin and the others together." Take it back!"
Mrs. Wang didn't want to pay attention to these things, and it didn't matter whether she picked them up or not. She just heard the name of "Sister Lin", paused while twirling the beads, glanced at Baoyu, and said softly: "Old Madam, the royal family has a great family, how can we treat him badly? Besides, the eldest girl knows it well, so we don’t have to rush to bring her back."
What's wrong with Sister Lin? Her Baoyu has been willing to study recently. The master is very happy. How can he let that girl come back and mess up things?
Jia Mu nodded gently after hearing this. She had agreed to send the person away, and now she was rushing to take him back. It was indeed inappropriate. So she turned her head and said to Baoyu: "Your mother is right, the eldest girl is the mistress of the palace." , How can we lose to Miss Lin and the others? Don’t worry, they will come back after they have finished their summer vacation.”
"Can"
Baoyu was so anxious that he was about to persuade her a few more words, but Sister Feng, who had already noticed something was wrong, stepped forward, put her bare hands on Baoyu's shoulders, and said with a smile: "You brothers-in-law and sister-in-law, when we are together on weekdays, I like to fight whenever there is nothing wrong, but now that we are no longer together, we are thinking about it too much, and I don’t know what kind of trouble you are going to make."
Baoyu was speechless after hearing this. They had no fight, it was just a few words.
At this time, Mrs. Wang said: "Baoyu, you have just finished reading. Go back to the house and have a rest."
Baoyu was unwilling to give in, but now that his mother, Mrs. Wang, had spoken, he did not dare to choke, so he had no choice but to hang his head and leave.
When Jia Mu saw this, she didn't say much. She just had a child's temper.
Baoyu returned to the house with his head lowered, and Xiren came out to greet him. Seeing Baoyu with a sad face, he hurriedly asked with concern: "Second Master, what's going on?"
Hearing the words of concern, Baoyu was moved in her heart, and the mist in her eyes blurred her eyes, and she said: "Sister Xiren, I mentioned to my grandmother before about bringing my sisters back, but my grandmother didn't agree."
Xi Ren felt relieved when he heard this, and there was helplessness in his willow eyes. He thought it was something, but it was because of this.
After a pause, Xiren comforted him softly: "Second Master, the girls are guests of the prince's palace. They won't be able to come back for a while. They will come back after a while."
Baoyu had no choice but to wait for Sister Lin to come back. Jia Mu and others did not respond. (End of chapter)
