King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 281 Yang Jingting's Feelings
After bidding farewell to her mother-in-law, Wang Xifeng went to Lixiangyuan, and happened to meet Jia Lian who was going out on the way.

Wang Xifeng already knew about Jia Lian's lecture on Baoyu today, so she asked, "Sister Xue is going to move out, do you know about it?"

"I just heard...it's all because of that bastard Baoyu!" Jia Lian said viciously.

"I think...you were too impulsive yesterday, and things got so bad that you forced Sister Xue and the others away!"

Wang Xifeng's thinking is similar to that of Jia's mother, and it is also the most normal thinking in this era.

Jia Lian didn't take it seriously, and replied: "I think it's still a light blow. Sister Xue has resentment in her heart, so she only wants to move out!"

"Sister Xue wants to move out?" Wang Xifeng was a little surprised.

"Exactly... Brother Pan told me today, but he himself doesn't want to leave!"

"This is really strange, Auntie and Brother Pan can no longer be the masters of the family!" Wang Xifeng marveled.

Jia Lian sighed: "Now the Xue family, sister Xue has a high status, so her words have some weight!"

"I won't tell you any more, sister Xue is going back to the palace tomorrow, I have to talk to her!"

Just about to turn around to leave, Wang Xifeng turned around and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Sister Yun is leaving today, the master ordered me to send her back!"

"Speaking of which, this sister Yun will also enter the palace the day after tomorrow, but I don't know what will happen in the end!"

Jia Lian replied: "His family is highly regarded by the Holy Spirit. From this point of view... I think Sister Yun can be chosen!"

"That's good... hurry up and go!"

The husband and wife parted at this point, and when Wang Xifeng went to Lixiangyuan to talk with Baochai, Mrs. Wang was making the last effort to keep her sister.

And when the news that the Xue family was leaving was discussed by Qing Wen and other girls, it immediately attracted Jia Baoyu's attention.

From being beaten yesterday to now, Jia Baoyu has been in a bad mood, and he was very happy when he learned that the Xue family was going to leave.

"When will they leave?" Jia Baoyu couldn't help asking.

"Second Master Bao, please keep your voice down...don't let outsiders hear it!" Xiren reminded immediately.

If it was before, Jia Baoyu would not take this seriously, but now he has to be cautious, because Jia Lian will really beat him.

"It's good that they left, so our house will be clean!" Jia Baoyu said in a low voice.

"I really don't understand, Miss Bao is so respectful and approachable...why do you always have trouble with her!" Xiren unconsciously sighed.

"Even you come to mock me?"

Sighing, Xiren replied: "It's not that I'm ridiculing you, I'm afraid that the people in this house... feel that you want to squeeze Xue's family away!"

"So what? They have their own house in Beijing, so what's the matter with our house all the time!"

Having said this, Jia Baoyu couldn't help but speak up, and Xiren was so frightened that he hurriedly motioned him to keep his voice down.

Leaving aside the matter of the Jia family, Zhu Jinghong, who was taking the two girls out of the palace at this moment, had already brought them to a small boat.

On the surface of Xiyuan Lake, although the area inside the dock is small, making tea around the stove is extraordinarily warm.

At the moment, there were only three of them on board, and they were accompanied by a few small boats, which were accompanied by maids and eunuchs.

Making tea was originally very simple, at least in Zhu Jinghong's opinion, but now Yang Jingting did it herself, and various rituals directly raised the level of tea drinking.

After the tea was boiled, Yang Jingting filled three cups respectively, took the first cup and brought it to Zhu Jinghong.

"Brother Thirteen, please drink tea!"

This was the first time Yang Jingting greeted Zhu Jinghong on her own initiative, and she was extremely nervous at the moment, which was also the normal reaction of the girls at the moment.

Looking at the wobbly teacup in front of him, Zhu Jinghong reached out and took it in his hand. In the process, his fingers touched Yang Jingting.

Zhu Jinghong himself thought it was nothing, after all, he and Baochai had been more intimate, but Yang Jingting's face instantly turned red.

Ignoring Yang Jingting's shyness, Zhu Jinghong took a sip and said, "It's a little hot!"

Obviously, he couldn't say anything high, which made Yang Jingting a little disappointed.

On the other hand, Zhen Qin picked up the teacup and savored it carefully, and finally gave a very pertinent evaluation.

Zhen Qin's words were full of hype, but in Zhu Jinghong's opinion, there was actually only one word, and that was "good".

While everyone was chatting and laughing, the boat floated towards the center of the lake, and the surrounding scenery became different.

"It's early winter now, I'm afraid it won't be long... it will snow!" Yang Jingting sighed.

Living in this bleak and lonely environment, she can't help but miss her mother in her hometown, whether she has added clothes on time, whether her younger siblings...

"Auspicious snow heralds a good year, Sister Ting...why are you so sad?" Zhen Qin couldn't help asking.

"homesick!"

Just these three words made Zhen Qin stunned for an instant, and then she felt that the tea was not fragrant.

She hasn't seen her parents for half a year since she left home. It would be a lie to say that she doesn't miss her.

But now in the capital, except for the aunt Zhen Taifei, she has no relatives.

Faced with this natural feeling, Zhu Jinghong was also touched, thinking of people and things in his previous life.

Suddenly he realized that he had been in this world for more than half a year.

After experiencing so many things, it seems that the past life is not real, it is almost like a dream.

After a few breaths of silence, Zhu Jinghong comforted: "It's rare that you two come out to play, so you should be happier!"

The two of them simply cleared up their mood, and then they regained their tranquility.

Zhen Qin was heartless, so she recovered faster naturally, only to hear her ask: "By the way, Sister Ting... The empress will summon a new attendant the day after tomorrow, and I don't know who this person is!"

Yang Jingting corrected: "It's just a summons, not necessarily an attendant!"

"Her family has spent a lot of thought on this matter!"

Hearing this, Zhen Qin said triumphantly, "It's not like me...with my aunt's help!"

Yang Jingting glanced at Zhen Qin, but didn't know what to say about her.

"A new attendant? Which family's girl is it?" Zhu Jinghong looked careless on the surface, but was curious in his heart.

"A girl from the Zhongjinghou Shi family!"

"Historist? Oh..." Zhu Jinghong suddenly understood.

At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh, is it really God's destiny to send the golden hairpin to him?
"The day after tomorrow... right?"

"Master Thirteen, what's going on the day after tomorrow?" Zhen Qin asked suspiciously.

"Uh... nothing, nothing!"

Simply covering up the past, Zhu Jinghong directly changed the subject and took the chat to another direction.

The whole afternoon was spent chatting, and the relationship between Zhu Jinghong and the two girls became closer.

Through this face-to-face and close-distance conversation, Yang Jingting truly understood that her cousin is not as rough as she looks.

On the contrary, Zhu Jinghong is easy-going and reasonable, and has a delicate mind and cares about others, but he is also strong and powerful, which makes people feel full of security.

It's just... Thinking of this, Yang Jingting couldn't help feeling shy, she was not reserved at all.

At this moment, the boat docked, and Zhu Jinghong went out first.

Standing on the shore, Zhu Jinghong stretched out his hand to pick up the two girls.

This was the maid's job, but he snatched it away.

It stands to reason that Zhen and Yang should decline at this time, but Zhen Qin generously stepped forward and helped Zhu Jinghong jump off the boat.

With Zhen Qin making a sample, Yang Jingting lost a lot of worries, and stepped forward to help Zhu Jinghong's sleeve.

Maybe it was because of being too nervous, but Yang Jingting jumped down from a height of only [-] to [-] centimeters and fell down. Fortunately, Zhu Jinghong was quick with his hands and eyes, and stopped her waist to support her.

It's so delicate... The nephrite jade is warm and fragrant in his arms, this is Zhu Jinghong's first reaction.

Yang Jingting's heart was pounding like a deer, and she tried to break free in a hurry, but almost fell into the water, but fortunately, Zhu Jinghong hugged her again.

"Don't move around, be careful of falling!" Zhu Jinghong scolded in a low voice.

Yang Jingting tried her best to regain her composure, grabbed Zhu Jinghong's sleeve to stand firm, and then said softly, "Brother Thirteen, you... let go!"

The voice was like mosquitoes and ants, such intimate contact made Yang Jingting so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

On the side, Zhen Qin began to blame herself again, secretly thinking that she should have fallen too.

Letting go of Yang Jingting, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile, "Sister Ting, if I hadn't been here... you would have fallen into the lake today!"

If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have fallen... Yang Jingting secretly said.

Seeing that she was really shy, Zhu Jinghong didn't want to joke too much, so he called the eunuchs and maids to go back to the palace.

Seeing his busy appearance, Yang Jingting felt very happy while being shy and self-confident.

It was a feeling she had never felt before, this feeling came naturally, and Yang Jingting couldn't help but recall the situation when Fang Cai was hugged.

Thinking of this, Yang Jingting blushed even more.

"Let's go...it's time for us to go back!" Zhu Jinghong yelled from the front.
