Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 99 Daily life of the Lai family

This morning.

Lai Shangrong took the three little ones and performed two sets of military boxing in the courtyard.

I ran around the front yard twice more, sweating all over, and then returned to the backyard unhurriedly.

"Uncle! The water is ready!"

"Ok!"

Since there was no time to go back to the backyard in the morning, Lai Shangrong got up and asked Qingwen and Yuchuan to prepare bath water in the backyard.

Nowadays, it has become normal for two maids to accompany the room, which makes it easier for him to cook in one pot, which indeed saves a lot of twists and turns.

Yuchai glanced at Lai Shangrong and curled his lips and said, "I will take care of you while you take a bath. Sister Qingwen, go prepare breakfast!"

Qingwen glared and said, "When will it be your turn to arrange for me?"

Yu Chuan pouted and said aggrievedly: "I'm sorry, sister! I just think that the uncle is used to eating the breakfast you arranged, and I'm afraid that he is not familiar with his taste. I messed up my errand and affected the uncle's appetite. But what? good!"

Qingwen snorted coldly and said: "Hmph! Don't think that I don't know what you are planning. I will go to the Yamen later, and asking you to wait for the necessary things will delay the business!"

Lai Shangrong didn't care about the bickering between the two. He gradually realized the benefits of the catfish effect. The jade bracelet was like the catfish in his back house. With her, he gradually became more relaxed about many things that Qingwen was unwilling to try before. He was naturally enjoying it.

But when it came to breakfast, he reminded Lai Shangrong and hurriedly asked: "Have you asked the kitchen to prepare the sea urchin that I asked someone to buy two days ago?"

I have been spending a lot of energy recently, and exercising is only one aspect. Food supplements must also keep up. Those supplements that take the form are too strong, so I have to find other ways.

So he went to the market two days ago to collect some seafood from the south. He wanted to see if there were any oysters, but unexpectedly he found sea urchins, so he asked Qingwen to tell the kitchen to make steamed sea urchin eggs.

Qingwen complained: "That thing is full of thorns, how do you get rid of it? Why do you want to eat this?"

This was an oversight on his part. After buying it from the market, he naturally thought that he could cook it in his own kitchen, but he had never cooked it in his previous life.

"This is a good thing from the sea! Let's do this! Ask my father later to ask the steward of Qingzhu Yayuan to see if there is a cook in his family who can cook this."

The jade bracelet said as if it were a treasure: "Is it from overseas? Maybe I don't need to ask you!"

Then he said to Lai Shangrong: "Uncle! Why don't you talk while I wait for you to take a bath?"

Seeing Lai Shangrong nod, Yuchai gave Qingwen a provocative look.

Qingwen stomped her feet, and before turning to leave, she said coldly: "If you dare to make a mistake, I won't tell the master or madam!"

After all, Yuchai entered the mansion late. Although he was under the supervision of Mr. Lai and his wife when he was in Rongfu, he was still one level behind Qingwen.

Because of Qingwen's warning, Yuchai did not dare to act recklessly, and even did not practice too much on Lai Shangrong's sword as before.

He honestly took a bath for Lai Shangrong and explained the reason clearly.

The Wang family was in charge of maritime trade in the south, and merchants would often bring some seafood to their door. Over time, practice made perfect.

And Yuchuan's mother happened to be one of them who knew how to cook seafood.

According to Yuchuan, Jinchuan also learned from Bai Lao Niang in his early years, but Yuchuan entered the government early, so he didn't have time to learn.

After taking a shower, getting dressed, and having breakfast, we rushed to the Yamen.

As soon as he left the house, Jin Chuan entered Lai's house.

After arriving at the gate of Second Sister You's courtyard in the back garden, he saw Third Sister You wearing a lavender cheongsam with high slits, her chest held high, her head held high, and her slender waist twisted slightly as she walked past him.Seeing the large white area that almost blinded her eyes, her pretty face turned red and she was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but spit.

"Bah! It's so shameless to dress like this!"

Then he realized that he had never seen this style before. Could it be that Uncle Lai also made it?

When I thought of this, my heart suddenly became hot.

Mrs. Wang learned about the wonderful use of Lai Shangrong's clothing design from Yuanchun. After returning home, she thought about it. Although she wanted to plagiarize Lai Shangrong's clothing design, as the mother of the second house owner of Rong Mansion, how could she tell Lai Shangrong about such shameful clothing? ask?
Fortunately, she had already planted an insider in the Lai family. Since she couldn't speak out, of course she entrusted Jin Chuan to find Yu Chuan, and the two sisters had no taboos.

Of course, in order to win over Jin Chuan, it is necessary to give her some promises. Once the matter is settled, if she is sent to Bao Yu in a year and a half, Jin Chuan will be smashed into pieces as if for free.

I just got the order last night and rushed to Lai's house early this morning to inquire about the situation with my sister. I never expected to see this novel scene as soon as I entered the back garden.

But seeing the new clothes passing by in front of his eyes, he couldn't help but worry about the gains and losses. What if Lai Shangrong didn't make them?

It’s difficult for my wife to inquire about such private clothing. Can I use Uncle Lai’s name to wear it?

But if it wasn’t specially made by Uncle Lai, wouldn’t it be Sanjie You’s idea?I have become enemies with her, what should I do?

He quietly fell behind Third Sister You and came to the house.

"Sister! I made this one myself and it looks awkward to wear. Is that girl Qingwen causing trouble and deliberately entertaining me?"

Second Sister You smashed the melon seeds and walked around her sister, smiling: "How could it be! Your sewing must be not fine enough, I think you have sewed it crookedly in some places!"

As he spoke, he pinched some of the tight spots on Sister You's body.

"Hmph! My brother-in-law is too partial. Why can't he let Qingwen do a few things for me?"

"Bah!" Second Sister You threw the melon seed husk in her hand on her head and said, "He's your own brother-in-law, why doesn't he treat you badly? Why don't you compare yourself with your eldest brother-in-law?"

Sanjie You suddenly said mysteriously: "By the way, sister! I heard that on the [-]th, the eldest brother-in-law was stepped on the ground by his brother-in-law at the door and was severely humiliated. Is this true?"

"How can this be fake? I used to think that the Duke's palace was too big, but it turns out he is such a bear. Fortunately, I had the eyesight to follow your brother-in-law!"

The servants of the Lai family witnessed Lai Shangrong trampling Jia Zhen to the ground, so how could they not publicize the situation in the house.

However, since they were not familiar with the Ning Mansion, Qin Keqing's identity was not very clear, so the main focus of the propaganda was still on how Lai Shangrong showed his prestige.

Jin Chuan was surprised when she heard the secret. Although she knew about Jia Zhen's scandal, she didn't know that there was such a thing.

This refreshed her knowledge. She didn't expect that the domineering Uncle Zhen of the Ning Mansion would suffer such a depressing loss.

However, the Ning Mansion is not as good as the Rong Mansion, at least not as good as the second bedroom of the imperial concubine’s natal family.

Thinking that Mrs. Wang also looked at Lai Shangrong differently, he couldn't realize that Lai Shangrong's height in his heart had surpassed that of Jia Lian.

Um!A little higher than Jia Lian, but far worse than Baoyu.

Just when I was surprised, I heard Sister You inside say again: "My body always has inconveniences sometimes, and if I'm pregnant... I say you might as well just follow your brother-in-law. What's wrong with being a proper wife?" As long as I pamper us, what does it matter?"

He cursed secretly for being shameless, thinking of the two maids waiting for the husband, and then thought that his sister seemed to have suggested that he come to Lai's house, and quickly covered his mouth.

"Sister! What are you doing here?"

Just when I was thinking about whether I had it or not, I suddenly heard a voice coming from my ear. I turned my head hurriedly and saw that it was my sister's jade bracelet. I relaxed and hurriedly took the jade bracelet and ran out of the hospital.
