dream of red mansion

Chapter 40

"Second brother, forget it, Nanny Sun knows she's wrong, so you can spare her this time." In the end, Yingchun was the first to intercede.

Jia Qing changed his previous expression and said to Yingchun: "My sister is still pleading for her now. Before that, she would have taken her seriously? She was arguing in the yard in front of her, if I hadn't caught her I don't know what ugly things to say!"

Although Yingchun knew this was the case, he was kind-hearted and hated people.Moreover, she was also worried that Jia Qing would get a reputation for being harsh on servants if this trouble continued, so she said to Jia Qing in a gentle voice: "After all, Grandma Sun is the nanny of the fourth younger sister..."

Xichun also pleaded: "Brother, please let Nanny Sun go this time."

She still likes Jia Qing's laughing and joking look, which is a bit unfamiliar to her.

Seeing that Yingchun and Xichun both pleaded for mercy, Jia Qing slowly said to Nanny Sun: "Since the second sister and younger sister are pleading for you, I will forgive you this time. You can try if I can deal with you! Well, let's go."

After Grandma Sun thanked her with gratitude, Jia Qing smiled instantly, and said to Yingchun: "Oh, these scumbags are really annoying, I have to force my younger brother to look like a villain... If the mansion If everyone is as sensible as Sister Siqi, there is no need for me to be a villain."

Yingchun just laughed when she heard that, and Siqi was not happy when she was beside her: "Second master would make fun of us as slaves, I am not a sensible person, I just hope that tomorrow I will not do something wrong and be sent away by the second master. Just go to the Chang'an county government to enjoy the blessing."

Maybe it was because of the way Jia Qing frightened Nanny Sun before, Siqi couldn't help but burst out laughing, not to mention, the second master's face is quite bluffing!
Jia Qing shook his head and said, "How could it be? Sister Siqi is so smart and sensible, how could I be willing to do it! Besides, Second Sister is not allowed to beat me?"

One sentence made Siqi blush, but seeing Jia Qing's serious face, it must be unintentional, right?

Still, Yingchun didn't want a group of people to stand and talk in the courtyard, so she suggested: "Let's go inside and talk, it's too cold to stand in the courtyard."

After Jia Qing carried Xichun into the house and drank some tea, Jia Baoyu and Tanchun also came.

"I said that there is no one in the second brother's yard, so he must have come to the fourth sister, am I right? But this second brother is also true, every time he runs to the fourth sister, it seems that they are close!"

As soon as he entered the room, Jia Baoyu complained to Tanchun behind him.

Jia Qing said to Bao Erpang who looked dissatisfied: "Where is it? It's just that the fourth sister is the youngest, so I thought about coming to the fourth sister's place first, and then going to the yard of the second brother Bao and the third sister. That's right. , Why didn't Sister Lin come?"

As soon as this was mentioned, Jia Baoyu's face collapsed, and he said: "Oh, don't mention it, sister Lin is weak. She got up early this morning and may have suffered from the cold again. She said she was not feeling well, so she couldn't come... God really doesn't care Why, let someone like Sister Lin suffer like this!"

Regarding Lin Daiyu's body, Jia Qing didn't know what to say. It was no exaggeration to say that Lin Daiyu was a weak Liu Fufeng. It was the depth of winter, and she didn't have a few days of energy in a month.

Tanchun said: "Brother Bao, don't forget the purpose of our trip. Sister Lin's failure to come can only mean that he is not lucky, but we must not miss such a good thing!"

Jia Baoyu immediately came to his senses when he heard the words, slapped his forehead suddenly, and said: "Yes, yes, second brother, a good donkey was sent to the village below today, and the kitchen has already taken care of it. It just so happens that tomorrow It’s Xiaonian, and he said that it’s going to be made into dumpling stuffing for later use.”

Donkey meat?As the saying goes: dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground!This donkey meat is delicious in the world.

At this time, there are no hormones, clenbuterol and other additives, and the donkey meat is the original taste, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

Thinking of this, Jia Qing immediately asked: "Is there a piece left?"

Hearing this, Jia Baoyu and Tanchun laughed immediately, only to hear Tanchun say: "I said that the second elder brother is a greedy mouth. I asked Bao elder brother to find Lian's second sister-in-law to cut off a big piece. Anyway, it is also used for making dumplings." Not that much."

Jia Baoyu also echoed from the side: "It's still the third sister who has the foresight..." After a pause, Jia Baoyu said again: "It's a pity that I don't have any place to play with such a good piece of meat. I am worried that I don't know where to get it."

When Jia Qing heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Second Brother Bao, why worry? Isn't the yard wide enough for my younger brother? Why don't you go to my younger brother's place?"

Hey, just let the girls in the yard try it too!
Jia Baoyu's eyes lit up first, then he hesitated and said, "Is it too far..."

Tanchun said: "What are you afraid of if you are far away? It happens that we sisters are at ease without the restraint of the elders."

Jia Baoyu suddenly lost his opinion, saying that the donkey meat was put in the big kitchen, so the group went to the big kitchen to pick up the goods.

When we arrived at the big kitchen of Rongguo Mansion, the women in charge of the kitchen carried out the meat. Jia Qing saw it, my good guy, there is at least 30 catties of meat on such a big leg, where can all the young masters and ladies eat up?

Jia Qing is already planning whether to hold another piece in the middle of the meeting.

Put the meat in a clean box and asked two servant girls to carry it. The group of people passed through the narrow passage between the Ning and Rong mansions, and arrived at the Ningguo mansion, Jia Qing's first-class hall.

Afterwards, the maids went out wantonly, and the masters were gearing up. When all the tools were ready, Jia Qing was the first to propose the target of this operation from the box.Well, it was quite heavy, and the maids asked the maids to clean it and hang it on the iron hook next to it.

The best and most convenient way to eat meat is of course grilled, so they are going to eat some grilled meat first.

So Jia Qing was in charge of cutting the slices, some of the others were in charge of grilling, and some were in charge of getting the seasonings. The sisters enjoyed themselves, and soon the first batch of meat was roasted.

"How can there be meat without wine? Doesn't Second Brother have wine here?"

Just when everyone was about to speak, Tanchun suddenly said this.

Naturally, Jia Qing had no choice but to find wine for them.Because there is no wine in his Yipintang.But Jia Qing knew that Jia Jing had a lot of good wine in his storehouse, so he just stole a bottle and tried it.

Lai Sheng was in charge of Jia Jing's affairs, so Jia Qing easily got a bottle of good Sangluo wine.However, Lai Sheng was speechless about Jia Qing's stealing of Jia Jing's wine, and he firmly told Jia Qing to report to Jia Jing, so that he would not be ruined.

When Jia Qing returned to Yipintang with the wine, Jia Baoyu took it and said in surprise, "Huh? Sang Luojiu? I didn't expect that there is such a good wine here. I'm lucky today."

At this time, I only heard Tanchun read from the side:
"The government thinks nothing will happen, the autumn water in the west pool is clear;

Last year, I was a courteous guest, and I will always serve you with high affection;
Kuang Youtai went up to the moon, like hearing the sheng outside the cloud;
I don't know who is pouring out the wine this year? "

Immediately afterwards, Tanchun said: "Today's scenery is very similar to that described in Liu Yuxi's poem, except that there is a pool of clear springs and a bright moon missing."

Jia Qingxin said that Tanchun really had a brilliant literary talent, and that he could come up with such a poem impromptu to add to the fun, although it was borrowed from the predecessors, it had to be admirable.

Afraid that Tanchun would ask herself to write a poem again, Jia Qing continued her words: "Why should the third sister be troubled? The few of us will definitely not be able to drink such a pot of wine for a while. There will be a month tonight, and we will come again at that time." Coming out of the Huifang Pavilion in the Huifang Garden in the back, isn’t there a pool and a moon?”

Jia Baoyu interjected: "Second brother's words are wrong. Poems are for occasions. There is no such thing as a far-fetched search for scenes for poems."

Tanchun also nodded and said: "Brother Bao is right. Although the second brother's approach is in line with the artistic conception, it is still inferior. It doesn't matter if you don't take it!"

Hearing their high-minded remarks one by one, Jia Qing curled her lips, expressing her dissatisfaction with their words.Fortunately, Tanchun finally stopped asking him to write poems.

With the meat and wine ready, Xichun, who couldn't hold back for a long time, couldn't care less about other things, and took the lead to eat a skewer of barbecued meat. Although she had tasted it secretly before, she didn't have the nerve to enjoy it.
