The Red Chamber: Hang Qin Keqing at the start

Chapter 34 [034] Jia Tan Chunxue knot poetry club

很软
good smell
It feels good.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jia Qiang did not continue to hold Wang Xifeng, but helped her to stand up.

On the contrary, Wang Xifeng hadn't recovered yet. When Jia Qiang hugged her slender waist just now, she felt how firm and powerful Jia Qiang's palm was on her back.

It actually made her feel a little flustered and dazzled.

Jia Qiang smiled gently and said:

"Auntie, your mouth is hot and swollen. I'll make you an ice pack and put it on your mouth to reduce the swelling."

Reminded by him like this, Wang Xifeng woke up like a dream, and suddenly felt her mouth was burning. When she reached out to touch it, several blisters formed on her lips and the corners of her mouth.

"Ouch! It hurts!"

Wang Xifeng bared her teeth and gasped in pain.

Jia Qiang asked Qingwen for an empty sachet, then went outside to find a few pieces of crushed ice, stuffed them into the sachet, and handed it to Wang Xifeng to put it on her mouth for a cold compress.

Wang Xifeng took the sachet, put it on her lips, glared at Qingwen sideways, and said angrily:

"Just now, you damn girl handed me a pot of hot water, almost scalding my mouth, if it wasn't for brother Qiang's sake, I would have burnt your mouth with a soldering iron! "

Qingwen raised her eyes and wanted to turn back, but considering that Wang Xifeng was the master and she was just a maid, she didn't dare to say anything.

Li Wan is Wang Xifeng's sister-in-law, and among the people present, the only one who is older than Wang Xifeng, seeing this situation, patted Wang Xifeng on the shoulder, smoothed things over and said:
"Okay, okay, Feng Lazi, Qingwen probably didn't do it on purpose. If this matter comes up, it's your fault."

Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes and asked back, "What's wrong with me?"

Li Wan joked with a smile:
"Isn't it because you were greedy and ate a spoonful of chili powder, otherwise, Qingwen wouldn't be rushing for water, and Qingwen wouldn't make mistakes in her haste, and handed you a pot of hot tea."

Seeing Li Wan pleading for love, Wang Xifeng borrowed the donkey from the slope to give herself a step down, and said with an annoyed smile:

"Your words are also reasonable, but I eat chili powder not because I am greedy, but because I am curious, and I want to taste the strange things that Brother Qiang bought from overseas businessmen.

Who knew it was so spicy, it was like eating a fire, and adding that pot of hot tea, it was like adding fuel to the fire. "

Jia Qiang smiled lightly and said:

"As the saying goes, delicious food should not be eaten too much. This chili powder is a seasoning, and it can only be added like salt. You can sprinkle some chili powder on the roasted venison and try it. It tastes pretty good!"

Hearing this, Baoyu and her sisters picked up some chili powder with small spoons and sprinkled it on the roasted venison.

Since Wang Xifeng was terribly spicy just now, everyone only sprinkled a little bit of chili powder, and then tried to taste it.

"Wow! It's really delicious!" Jia Yingchun, who has always been taciturn, couldn't help but be the first to sigh.

Shi Xiangyun, who is enthusiastic and cheerful, commented happily:
"It's so fragrant! So spicy! This chili powder actually enhances the aroma and umami taste of the venison, making my lips and teeth salivate and my appetite whetted!"

Xue Baochai nodded approvingly:
"This chili powder is different from the spiciness of dogwood, mustard and pepper. When paired with roast venison, it really complements each other and enhances the taste of roast meat."

Jia Tanchun smiled heartily and said:

"Brother Qiang really has great powers, to be able to get such a unique seasoning."

Jia Qiang smiled modestly and said:

"Aunt Tanchun is overrated. It was just a coincidence that I met an overseas businessman. It's not a supernatural power."

Seeing that the sisters were all focusing on Jia Qiang, Jia Baoyu felt a little lost. In the past, the sisters all revolved around him.

However, now the sisters are talking happily with Jia Qiang, making Jia Baoyu feel left out.

While everyone was chattering and laughing, Lin Daiyu only took a small bite of the venison and stopped.

Shi Xiangyun looked at her and asked suspiciously:

"Sister Lin, this roasted venison is so delicious, why don't you eat it?"

Xue Baochai helped explain:

"Your elder sister Lin has weak bones, and she can't digest too much meat. Otherwise, she must also like to eat."

Lin Daiyu lowered her eyebrows, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She squinted at Shi Xiangyun, and said with something in her words:

"Sister Yun, Sister Bao has finished everything I want to say for me. She understands my physical condition better than myself."

Xue Baochai felt that Lin Daiyu's words were a bit sharp, and said with a sneer:
"Sister Lin, I only talk to you because I care about you. Don't think too much about it."

Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "I didn't think much about it, maybe it's Sister Bao, you think too much?"

Seeing that Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai were about to quarrel, a systematic mechanical voice suddenly sounded in Jia Qiang's mind:
"Ding! Please host to make a choice:"

"1. I agree with Xue Baochai's point of view. If you don't persuade Lin Daiyu to eat roasted venison, you will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold. After signing in, you can also get 100 taels of gold."

"2. Persuade Lin Daiyu to eat roasted venison, and reward master-level calligraphy proficiency. After signing in, you can also get master-level painting proficiency."

Jia Qiang silently said without hesitation:

"I choose 2."

If Jia Qiang acquires master-level calligraphy proficiency and master-level painting proficiency, then Jia Qiang can sell a word or draw a picture at a very high price.

This is equivalent to obtaining a mountain of gold, and the money you can earn in the future is far more than 200 taels of gold.

Jia Qiang was in a good mood, the corners of her lips raised slightly, she looked at Lin Daiyu, and persuaded:

"Aunt Lin, you are weak, you should eat more venison. Venison is good for Qi and Yang, nourishing blood and expelling wind."

Lin Daiyu frowned a pair of smoldering eyebrows, thought for a while, nodded slightly and said:

"You are right. I seldom ate meat in the past. This may also be the reason for my weak bones. I will eat more meat in the future."

Jia Qiang cut off a palm-sized piece of venison with a knife, put it on the porcelain plate in front of Lin Daiyu, and said with a smile:

"Don't wait for the future, just start eating more meat from now on."

"Thank you!" Lin Daiyu's heart warmed up, and tears leaked from the corners of her eyes.

Jia Qiang secretly sighed in her heart, this is a girl who lacks care and is sensitive.

She lost her mother when she was young, and she was far away from her father. She traveled thousands of miles to join her grandmother, and lived a life of being dependent on others in Rongguo Mansion ever since.

In the back house of the Jia family, which is full of scheming and conflicting interests, how many people really treat her well?

However, when she saw Jia Qiang helping Lin Daiyu cut the barbecue, Xue Baochai's heart was slightly sour, and she was a bit apprehensive, but she had always been dignified and prudent, and she was amiable on the surface, and did not show any dissatisfaction.

At this time, a system prompt sounded in Jia Qiang's mind:
"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained master-level calligraphy proficiency! Is the host signed in?"

Jia Qiang was overjoyed, and said silently: "Sign in!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained master-level painting proficiency!"

Jia Qiang was overjoyed, with this master-level calligraphy and painting skills, he could speed up the speed of making money, recruit troops as soon as possible, and pursue a great cause!

At this time, Shi Xiangyun felt that the pants were wet and sticky, and it was uncomfortable to sit on the bench, so he quietly asked Qingwen for a pair of obscene pants.

Qingwen was a little curious about what happened to her, but she didn't have the nerve to ask, so she found a pair of clean underwear and handed them to her in a muffled voice, asking her to go to the back room and close the door to change.

Shi Xiangyun changed his underwear shamelessly, threw his wet underwear on Jia Qiang's bed, and then returned to his seat to continue eating roasted venison.

She was a carefree girl, and quickly put this embarrassing episode behind her.

After everyone had eaten and drank enough, Jia Tanchun suggested with a smile:
"It's snowing heavily today. It's a beautiful scenery. It's rare for us to get together. Why don't we form a society and write poems, have fun, and live up to the magnificent snow-covered scenery."

Jia Baoyu clapped his hands and applauded:

"Third sister's suggestion is good, I will be the first to sign up!"

Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun and Jia Xichun also responded and were willing to join the poetry club.

Jia Qiang raised her eyebrows slightly. In the original book, the Poetry Club was established after the completion of the Grand View Garden. Unexpectedly, in this time and space, Jia Tanchun actually established the Poetry Club in advance.

Just when Jia Qiang was stunned for a moment, Lin Daiyu laughed and said:
"Brother Qiang, you are quite talented, the poetry club counts you as one, how about it?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun and Jia Xichun were all slightly shocked.

Lin Daiyu is one of the most talented women in the Rongguo Mansion. She said that Jia Qiang is talented, so she must be not ordinary talented.

In this way, Jia Qiang is an all-rounder in civil and military affairs!

Among the descendants of the Jia family, finally there is a Yushu Zhilan who is both civil and military!

If the ancestors and ancestors had spirits in the sky, they would definitely be overjoyed and quite gratified.

Except for Bao Daichai who had heard Jia Qiang's poems, the rest of the sisters had never seen Jia Qiang's poems.

Everyone is waiting to see what kind of poems Jia Qiang can produce after joining the poetry club.

Under the eyes of the crowd mixed with admiration, appreciation, expectation and suspicion, Jia Qiang smiled lightly and said:

"Since Aunt Lin has said so, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

Li Wan suddenly laughed and said:

"Although I'm older than you, I also like singing the wind and moon, writing poems and lyrics, and I'm one of the poetry clubs, but I want to be the president. What are your intentions?"

The corners of Jia Qiang's lips were slightly raised. Although Li Wan claimed that she was older, she was actually less than 30 years old. Her facial features were dignified and handsome, without a single wrinkle. She could be regarded as a delicate and charming woman.

In the original novel, Li Wan only cares about her son Jia Lan, she looks taciturn and indifferent to the world, but in fact she knows that she is helpless and has nothing to fight for.

But she still has a desire for power in her heart.

Once, when she was drunk, she went to touch the warehouse key on Ping'er's body, and her words also revealed her desire to be in charge.

After all, she is a lady from a scholarly family and an official family, so how could she really not have some ideas and ambitions?

It's just that her husband's early death made her hide all her desires in her heart.

This time Li Wan is vying to be the president, but he actually wants to have a stage to display his talents and let himself shine as he should.

After all, she is not yet 30 years old, if she is placed in later generations, she will be in the prime of life.

Xue Baochai blinked her watery almond eyes, smiled flatteringly:
"My sister-in-law is well-educated, humble and peaceful. She is very suitable for the position of president."

"Thanks for Miss Bao's love!" Li Wan looked at Wang Xifeng and joked:

"Madam Feng is the housekeeper grandma of Rongguo Mansion, and she needs to decide on this matter."

Wang Xifeng laughed and said:

"Sister-in-law, are you making fun of me? You are sister-in-law, higher than me, so you can decide.

Moreover, I don't know a lot of Chinese characters, and I don't know how to do wet and dry things. I don't want to join the poetry club, so you don't need to ask my opinion at all. "

Li Wan smiled slyly and said:

"The girls and I are soft-tempered, and we need someone with a strong personality to manage things. You are the most suitable candidate, so you will be the supervisor of the Poetry Club, right?

You are in charge of monitoring whether there are any lazy people among us, and you can just figure out how to punish them. "

Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes and said with a smile:

"Sister-in-law, why do you want me to be the censor of the prison society? I'm afraid you are playing some crooked idea?"
