The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 328 Dragon Boat Festival [continued]

[Two drinks at noon and evening, I still try to update~]

Jiao's house.

Qingwen and Hongyu rushed out of the smoky main room quickly, took off their masks, coughed and panted, and took a while to recover.

Qingwen wiped the railings with a handkerchief, leaned against the porch pillar, and greeted: "It's finally finished, sit down and rest, let's open the window for a quarter of an hour to get some fresh air."

Hongyu responded softly, and also sat down on the railing on the other side.

Qingwen used a handkerchief as a fan to fan the wind for a while, but when she heard that there was no movement around her, she felt a little puzzled.

When she smoked the house with wormwood just now, the girl didn't seem to say anything.

But when she was in Baoyu's house, this girl was good at talking, no matter what happened, there was no time when she was speechless, why is she so taciturn today?
Qingwen is a straight-hearted person, so she naturally wouldn't hold back when she thought about it, she leaned on the pillar of the corridor and asked, "Why don't you speak, are you having trouble with Yuchuan again?"

No one dared to provoke anyone in the chess game, and Xiangling did not fight or grab. If someone had a dispute with Hongyu, it must be that Yuchuan did not run away.

"how come!"

Hongyu heard the words and said coquettishly: "Sister Yuchuan usually takes care of me the most, and she teaches me everything in the house."

"嘁~"

Hearing her unreasonable words, Qingwen curled her lips in disdain, and didn't bother to inquire about Hongyu's personal affairs anymore.

And Lin Hongyu waited for a while, seeing that Qingwen had no further words, she lowered her head again and fell silent.

The reason why she was in a bad mood today was not because she had a conflict with the maid in the room, but because she witnessed the scene of Jia Yun kneeling down to recognize her father in order to gain power, and she couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Once upon a time, this up-and-coming down-and-out young man was the lover of her dreams. Even if Luo Hua intended to be ruthless, Jia Yun's image in Hongyu's heart had always been a handsome young man.

Who would have thought...

That sentence, "my nephew is bold, I want to put my name under my uncle's name", can be said to have directly crushed the girl's pure dream.

Just as he was sobbing, a woman came running outside and shouted, "Get the car ready, get the car ready, Mr. Jiao is going to take our brothers and girls to see the dragon boats in Shichahai!"

Qingwen and Hongyu got up at the same time, and said at the same time: "How good this is, my wife and aunt just happened to take a car to Zijin Street, and the master and the elder also drove a mule cart to accompany them!"

When Laiwang and his wife used to go out, they used the carriages and horses of Rongguo Mansion. After they left their citizenship, they bought a mule cart. It was originally prepared for Laiwang. Became her special car——Laiwang either rubbed his son's carriage or Jia Yun's carriage.

As soon as the maid heard this, she turned around and went out again, shouting: "Then I'll tell the front yard to prepare another one quickly!"

Watching the maid go away in a hurry, Hongyu and Qingwen looked at each other subconsciously, and then Qingwen sat back on the pillar, but Hongyu hesitated and said: "Sister Qingwen, since the master is going to play in Shichahai, It’s not good to have no one around to serve you, you see..."

Qingwen raised her eyes to look at her, and said with a sneer: "If you want to go, you can go, who can argue with you?"

"Then this house..."

"There are only a few rooms in total, not to mention there are still people left on the stove?"

Seeing what she said, Hongyu hurriedly washed up briefly, and sprinkled some powder on her body to cover the smoke, then gathered all the things she needed for the trip, and rushed straight to the stables in the front yard.

What is it that the handsome young man Ruyu wants to kneel at the uncle's feet just like himself?

It shows that it is right to hug the uncle's legs tightly!

What's more, it's not just me hugging the uncle's leg, the uncle often hugs my leg too...

I don't know if she ran in a hurry, but her face was flushed as if she had applied rouge.

A quarter of an hour later.

As Jiao Shun walked towards the stables, he explained to Zhou Rui who was following him: "When you get there, it will be convenient if Brother Yucun is there, and if Brother Yucun is not, you can just call him by his name." , and there are no outsiders on the left and right—the location doesn’t have to be too good, and it’s more convenient to block idlers and so on if it’s remote.”

The dragon boat race in Shichahai attracts tens of thousands of tourists every year. In order to ensure safety, Shuntian Prefecture sends a large number of yamen servants and white servants to maintain order every year. If there are wealthy and powerful families who need to add 'special seats', they will naturally go to them first. coordination.

Zhou Rui bowed his head and nodded repeatedly, but his heart was full of emotion.

Once upon a time, he, Zhou, was the top card in the dowry, not to mention a young boy like Jiao Shun, even his father, Laiwang, would be a head shorter than me when he saw him. It took only two or three years for anyone to realize his dream. In front of this yellow-mouthed kid, he doesn't even have the qualifications to straighten his back!
Forget the past.

Waiting for Zhou Rui to lead four or five people, they rushed to the front station at high speed, and the Yingying and Yanyan in the back, surrounded by the women and maids, came to the front of the carriage with a smile.

As Jiao Shun went forward to meet him, he couldn't help but recall that when he came to this mansion to donate pneumatic tires, it happened that Wang Xifeng went to visit Qin Keqing in the East Mansion. And put on a humble face.

Of course, he couldn't welcome too close, and the main one was Jia Baoyu.

Xiren didn't know what to do next to Jia Baoyu, when he saw Jiao Shun approaching with a smile, he quickly bowed and retreated.

Jia Baoyu tucked the porcelain vase in his hand into his sleeve, and just as he opened his mouth to speak, Lin Daiyu rushed to say: "I always heard that sister Xing said that brother Jiao is a thoughtful person, and today we didn't prepare anything, just to see what happened. A comprehensive method—Yun’er, don’t you think so?”

"Pooh!"

Xiangyun's gaze met Jiao Shun's gaze, and he felt his face beating hotly. He pushed Daiyu in embarrassment, and spat, "It's all right for you to be talkative, why do you still want to hang me up!"

While talking, the two got into a mess again.

Jia Baoyu grinned happily from the sidelines, thinking that they used to use themselves as a meat shield when they were fighting, but now...

For a moment, I couldn't help feeling sad again.

Jiao Shun laughed loudly, and said loudly: "She's selfish, at most she's only three-point truthful, but since my sisters have brought it up, I'm going to try my best to be ten-point today."

While speaking, he stole a glance at Shi Xiangyun, and saw that although she had identified the source of the opening words, she did not show any displeasure. She couldn't help but secretly rejoiced that someone as magnanimous as Xiangyun would accept sex in the future, naturally. It's also much easier.

"What if there is a mistake?"

Tanchun suddenly interrupted and asked, "So what?"

Jiao Shun glanced at her sideways, and said with a chuckle: "If there is any mistake, everyone can just let Sister Xiangyun punish me!"

These words are obviously flirting, but secretly they are using Xiangyun as a moat to prevent Tanchun Gong from avenging his personal revenge.

Shi Xiangyun's oval face was almost on fire, and he didn't have his usual generous appearance, so he hid behind Baochai in embarrassment.

Lin Daiyu wanted to pull her, but Baochai hurriedly advised, "There are a lot of people talking here, so let's hurry up and get in the car."

All Yingying and Yanyan got into their carriages.

When Tanchun boarded the car, taking advantage of other people not paying attention, he turned his head and gave Jiao Shun a vicious look, but Jiao Shun's thick skin was like a city wall, so why would he care about mere eyes?

After the sisters got into the carriage, Jia Baoyu turned his attention to Jiao Shun, and said in a low voice, "Brother Jiao, the old lady wants to ask you for help with something, how about we talk with the carriage?"

Seeing that he was beaten to death that day, Jiao Shun can be considered to have dispelled a lot of resentment, and he did not reject him as before, so he said freely: "This is your family's carriage, I am naturally a guest Lord."

Baoyu turned around and explained to Xiren, Sheyue, and Qiuwen, and got into Jiao Shun's carriage first.

"Master, you..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got into the car, he bumped into a bright smile head-on.

Jia Baoyu was taken aback for a moment, and the person on the opposite side was also stunned, and then they both shouted at the same time:
"Why is it Second Master Bao?"

"You are Xiaohong?!"

Jia Baoyu wondered, "Why are you in this car?"

Lin Hongyu suppressed her smile, shrank her body back, and said seriously: "Now that I am in Uncle Jiao's house, I have changed my real name back to Hongyu."

"Red Jade? It sounds much better than Xiaohong. Why... oh."

Jia Baoyu was halfway through talking before he realized that this was to avoid his own name.

At this time, Jiao Shun also leaned half of his body into the carriage, seeing Hongyu huddled in the corner, he couldn't help wondering, "Why are you here?"

Hongyu quickly straightened her body, and said in a respectful voice: "A moment ago, my mother went home to spread the word that my master was going to Shichahai to watch the game. The servant girl thought that my father would not be able to have someone to serve me, so..."

As she said that, she shifted her gaze down, and guided Jiao Shun appropriately to discover the ice basin, sandalwood, fan and other things on the ground.

"You really have a heart."

Jiao Shun praised with a smile, and then said: "But Brother Bao has something to tell me, you go to his car and squeeze with the attackers first - by the way, I just answered the girls, Be well prepared and prepared.”

As he said that, he took off the purse from his waist, and threw it to Hongyu casually: "You take this silver, look carefully on the road, if there are fun, useful, and delicious ones, let someone buy some and take them there. "

Hongyu originally heard that she was going to huddle with the attackers, and she felt a little conflicted in her heart. Seeing her uncle's subsequent operations, she understood that this was to support her, so she quickly agreed with a smile on her face.

Holding the purse again, he said: "Speaking of fun, I heard that the dragon boat race doesn't start until noon, so this servant specially brought your card games."

Seeing this, Jiao Shun praised her a few more words, and then she was satisfied and changed to another car.

Xirenzheng and Sheyue Qiuwen were worried about Baoyu's injury, when they suddenly saw Hongyu getting into the car, they were a little surprised for a while.

Immediately, Sheyue Qiuwen's face darkened, and she habitually wanted to scold Hongyu, but was stopped by the attacker, and asked with a smile: "Sister Xiaohong is not at Uncle Jiao's house, but what is she doing here?"

It was only then that Sheyue Qiuwen remembered that 'Xiaohong' was no longer from the Rongguo Mansion, so it was not easy to talk about those words of exclusion and suppression.

But I heard Hongyu say: "So that the three elder sisters know that I have changed my real name back to Hongyu now—because Second Master Bao wanted to talk to our master, so our master let me sit in this car first."

Speaking of this, she flipped her hand and showed her bulging purse: "By the way, our master also told us to pay more attention along the way. If there are any delicious, fun, and useful things, buy them all and take them with you."

Sheyue Qiuwen originally restrained Jiao Shun and restrained those harsh words, but seeing the former "marginal man" showing off nakedly, he still couldn't help but sneered and said:
"Your father has explained, what business do we have?"

"Let's just say it! Look at her, she seems to be holding some kind of precious sword!"

Hearing the familiar vitriol, Hongyu just smiled, found a seat by the window and sat there, raised the curtains and looked out.

Seeing that she didn't reply, Sheyue Qiuwen became a little nervous instead, you looked at me, I looked at you, and finally looked at Xiren in the same way.

Xiren made a helpless expression at them, and said with a smile: "Don't listen to their nonsense, when the old lady came out, she explained that even Second Master Bao is under the control of Uncle Jiao, let alone us people?"

Only then did Hongyu turn around and smile: "Sister Xiren still knows the general idea."

As he spoke, he untied his purse and said, "Then my sister and I will guard a window alone, and we will get out of the car to buy things..."

In the middle of speaking, she suddenly froze.

Apart from the expected broken silver, most of Gein's purse was filled with golden beans, and there was a stack of hundred taels of silver bills beside it.

I don't want my uncle to trust me so much!
Hongyu hesitated for a moment, then twisted two banknotes, and handed them to Qiuwen Muskyue, who was also a little shocked, and said lightly: "Our master didn't bring much scattered silver, so the 200 two sisters will break it first. Use it, if it’s not enough, let me take care of it.”

Faced with her superior attitude, which was close to charity, She Yueqiuwen felt itchy with hatred, but in the end, she could only take the two bank notes with gritted teeth under Xiren's gesture.

…………

But said that the younger generation almost came out of the nest, and the old lady was not in the mood for the festival, so she made an appointment to have fun in the Grand View Garden at night, and dismissed Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue and others.

Let alone others.

But Aunt Xue followed Mrs. Wang back to the hut in Qingtang where she lived temporarily. Seeing the simple layout of the room, she couldn't help but feel ashamed and distressed. No, if it wasn't because of my things, how could you have ended up in this state..."

"Look at you, why are you saying that again?"

Mrs. Wang interrupted her words kindly, clasped her hands together and said: "Amitabha, I have worked so hard for so many years, and finally got a moment of purity. Apart from thinking about Baoyu, now I have nothing else to ask for."

In fact, after the bewitching time, she also harbored resentment towards her younger sister for a while, thinking that her indecent things hurt herself.

But later, because Jia Zheng completely disregarded the friendship for many years, he first regarded her as a prodigal woman in a claustrophobic isolation, and hated Wu Jiwu almost killed Baoyu, the couple seemed to be strangers.

Mrs. Wang's heart was ashamed, but she looked away from this matter. After all, Aunt Xue was out of enthusiasm at the beginning, and she didn't have any malicious intentions.

But Aunt Xue saw that her sister had fallen into this situation, and she was still so magnanimous to herself, but she became more and more ashamed. Every time she met her, she had to blame herself again and again, no matter how much Mrs. Wang tried to persuade her, it was useless.

This time was no exception, Aunt Xue began to wipe away her tears as she thought about it.

"Ah~"

Mrs. Wang sighed helplessly, pulled her and said, "You just don't believe what I say, that's all, just look at what this is."

As he said that, he took the initiative to take off his clothes to reveal the clothes inside.

Aunt Xue's eyes widened suddenly, and she blurted out in surprise: "Sister, why dare, how dare..."

Mrs. Wang took the time to arrange her clothes, and said calmly: "Outside people say that I am immoral, so I simply took advantage of their wishes."

Then he pulled his sister and asked with a smile: "How, you should believe that I didn't blame you this time, right?"

Aunt Xue nodded subconsciously, suddenly remembered something, covered her mouth in shock and said, "Sister, you, when you usually worship the Buddha, is it the same..."

"Bah~ What are you talking about!"

Madam Wang spat with a blushing face, but did not directly refute.
