The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 21 Planning for the Spring Festival at the Town God's Temple Fair (recommended tickets for collection)
"Brother Jing, come and see!"

Hearing Xichun's crisp voice, Jia Jing couldn't help but sighed, and the good shopping turned into accompanying shopping, feeling tired.

But before Jia Jing finished sighing, Xi Chun ran over, pulled Jia Jing's sleeve, and wanted to sneak into the crowd in front.The bluffed Jia Jing hurriedly grabbed her, the front was crowded with people, and Xichun was a girl's house, but she couldn't just rush in like this.

Jia Jing called for three or four guards, and together they squeezed a small path through the crowd, and the five girls were able to go inside.

In the middle of the crowd was a monkey man with a big wooden box, on which stood two little monkeys.

The monkey player holds a gong, takes out various toys from the wooden box, puts the monkey on the ground, and rings the gong. The little monkey uses the toy to make various bowing and thousand-dancing movements, which makes people around laugh.

Then the monkey juggler took out two wooden painted weapons, and put simple armor made of bamboo on the two little monkeys. After a whistle, the two little monkeys took the weapons and fought back and forth. Looking up, the swords and swords are quite methodical, like two generals on the battlefield.

The audience who watched the performance of the two little monkeys screamed incessantly. Amidst the applause, the audience threw the copper coins and broken silver in their hands to the open space in front of them.

In just a few breaths, a layer of copper coins and broken silver fell in front of the monkey man. Daiyu Baochai and other five girls were even more excited and threw out all the copper coins and silver coins in their purses. .

But immediately, the girls were dumbfounded. Before the temple fair was over, all the money they had on their bodies was gone. What should they do if they saw something they were interested in and wanted to buy later?
Jia Jing saw the girls' embarrassment, and immediately took out a handful of broken silver and copper coins from her pocket, and when she didn't think it was enough, she also temporarily borrowed the scattered silver that Laifu tied to her body. , and gave the five girls one by one.

Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun happily picked it up. They were either their own younger brothers or they were called the third elder brother, so you are welcome. Daiyu and Baochai were not so embarrassed to pick it up, but Yingchun and Xichun's helper beat him. After a while, he still blushed and accepted it, and thanked him in a low voice.

Soon, Jia Jing paid the price for her behavior of giving money just now.

Without a lot of effort, the hands and arms of Jia Jing and Laifu Shuanzhu were already covered with gadgets bought by several girls, while Daiyu Baochai and other five girls were still in a state of shopping in high spirits. among.

In the hands of the three of Jia Jing, there are toys such as masks, puppets, and jigsaw puzzles, as well as girls' supplies such as rouge, gouache, and silk flower jewelry. But still happily bought it.

Seeing this situation, Jia Jing also had to sigh with emotion, shopping is really a woman's nature, no matter what age or dynasty!
However, Jia Jing was also quite happy seeing the five girls having a great time playing.

This is in line with the nature of girls of this age!

Among the five girls, Xichun, the youngest, is only 13 years old, and will be just a child in future generations; but here, after two years and a year, she is able to marry and have children, and even parents who are more impatient at home marry at the age of 13. There are also plenty of people.On the contrary, like Yingchun, it is extremely rare to be unmarried at the age of eighteen or nineteen.

The Town God's Temple is also quite lively these days. When people go to the temple fair, no matter men, women, young or old, as long as conditions permit, most of them will choose to burn a stick of incense in the temple to seek marriage, official career, wealth or health, etc. .

In this era of believing in ghosts and gods, it is natural not to pass the temple gate without worshiping, so at the end of the game, the five girls also took Jia Jing to burn a stick of incense in the Temple of the City God, and worshiped carefully. It's the end.

It was getting late, and after playing around all afternoon, she was already a little tired, especially Daiyu, who was already quite weak, and now the excitement of playing was over, and she suddenly felt extremely tired.

Seeing this, Jia Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly led everyone back home.

The carriage with the mark of Rong Mansion headed east all the way to Rong Guo Mansion.

In the carriage, the five girls sat down and chatted while fiddling with the spoils of shopping in the afternoon.

Yingchun's eyes turned, and she deliberately smeared Jia Jing, "As for my younger brother, he is usually okay, but sometimes his temper is not so good, and I don't know if it is a fault that fell on the battlefield a few years ago!"

"But I think third brother Jing is a very nice person! Since I can remember when I was four or five years old, I remember that third brother Jing has been treating me very well!" Hearing Yingchun's words, Xichun immediately retorted.

Next to her, holding a silk flower in her hand, Daiyu, who was tired and drowsy, also subconsciously said: "Brother Jing is a very good person. When I entered the mansion, it was all thanks to Brother Jing." I spoke, and because of this, Third Brother Jing was reprimanded by my grandmother, and I have always felt bad about it."

After finishing speaking, Daiyu seemed to realize what she just said, and her pretty face turned red immediately.

Xue Baochai's eyes flickered when he heard the words, but after a pause, he agreed and said hello to Jia Jing.

Tanchun on the one side listened to Yingchun's words before, looked at the innocent Daiyu who was shy in the carriage, and Baochai who seemed to be aware of it, and gave Yingchun a meaningful look, not knowing what he was thinking.

……

After about a stick of incense, the carriage finally arrived at the gate of Rongguo Mansion.

In the distance, Jia Jing saw a person pacing back and forth at the gate of Rongguo Mansion.

When the footsteps approached and took a closer look, the man was wearing a big red gold python and fox armpit arrow sleeves, and a stone blue sable rat fringe jacket outside. His face was like powder, and his lips were like fat. He was the phoenix of the Rongguo Mansion. Which one is Dan Jia Baoyu?
At this time, Jia Baoyu was walking back and forth anxiously in front of Rongguo Mansion, full of complaints and impatience, all burst out when he saw Jia Jing.

"Jia Jing, why didn't you call me when you went out to play?!" Seeing that Jia Jing took her sister Lin and Sister Bao out together, but she didn't bring herself along, Jia Baoyu's round face turned red, The more I talked, the more I felt flustered, and I was about to repeat the old tricks.

Jia Jing sat on the horse, looked at Jia Baoyu, and frowned.

"Second uncle Zheng educated you like this? Jia Jing is also what you can call him?"

Jia Jing looked worried.

Facing Jia Jing, his cousin who was four years older than himself, Jia Baoyu still had some fear in his heart. Not to mention anything else, it was only the coldness cultivated by beheading nearly a thousand heads with his own hands. How can Jia Baoyu resist the breath of iron and blood?
Under Jia Jing's icy words, Jia Baoyu's petty temper that wanted to be splashed was like snowflakes splashed by hot water, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

Just when Jia Baoyu was speechless for a while, another voice came out.

"What's the matter, is it possible that we can only play with you at home?!" On the carriage, Daiyu and her party came down, "We are not objects, we just stay there and don't move, let's go play for a while Is it?! Who are you showing your petty temper here for nothing!"

"Sister Lin, I didn't mean that, I just..." Jia Baoyu hurriedly explained.

But at this time, Lin Daiyu and Yingchun Xichun had entered the Rongfu from the west corner gate, leaving only Jia Baoyu a distant back.

But Baochai, who was walking behind, saw this and said, "Brother Bao, you should go back quickly, the old lady will go to the palace to congratulate with all the wives of Baolinghou's mansion later, so don't be too late !"

Tanchun also persuaded, "Yes, Second Brother Bao, today is a big event, don't waste the old lady's time, otherwise father will definitely be angry."

To say that when facing Jia Baoyu, the egg of the phoenix, Jia Zheng's name was extremely useful, and it even made Jia Baoyu feel like he was at war with each other every time he thought of it.

Seeing that Tanchun mentioned Jia Zheng, Jia Baoyu didn't care to continue to be angry and pissed off, so he hurriedly collected his mood, followed Tanchun, and went straight to his yard.
