Chapter 343 Teasing
After the group of people persuaded Lady Jia to calm down, they headed towards Rongqing Hall.

Jia Wei looked at Lady Jia holding Daiyu in one hand and Baochai in the other, and could only laugh at the good show she was putting on.

He calmly approached the pregnant Wang Xifeng and whispered, "Second Sister-in-law Lian is pregnant. She has to be careful when walking."

Wang Xifeng sneered and said, "Brother, how about you help your sister-in-law walk?"

When Jia Wei heard her call him "Brother Wei", he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. After Wang Xifeng became pregnant with his child, she became bolder and dared to act like Feng Lazi in front of him...

Seeing Jia Wei stunned, Wang Xifeng felt indescribably relieved. She finally regained her face in front of Jia Wei!

She groaned twice, raised her hand and asked the maid Feng'er to support her, then walked in with her big belly.

Jia Wei couldn't stand Wang Xifeng's arrogant look, so he looked around and saw that all the maids and old women in the yard were paying attention to Jia's grandmother. He stretched out his hand and pinched the round breast in front of him.

Wang Xifeng groaned, her body trembled and her heart almost jumped out.

"Grandma, what's wrong?" Feng'er asked hurriedly.

Wang Xifeng's face turned red for a moment, but she said nothing and went into the house.

Jia Wei teased Wang Xifeng, and seeing Yuanchun was about to go into the house, he coughed quickly.

Yuanchun paused and stepped back. Soon the maids and servants followed her into the house, and Jia Wei approached.

He whispered: "Good sister, do you miss me?"

Yuanchun turned her back and didn't look at him. She was speechless, but her shoulders were shaking.

Jia Wei chuckled, hooked her little hand, and pulled Yuanchun aside, and Yuanchun followed him.

Jia Wei put his other hand on the slender waist of the woman holding the zither beside him and led the master and servant aside.

Baoqin had never served Jia Wei before, and they were not that close. Moreover, they were in Jia's grandmother's courtyard, so her body was very stiff, and her walking posture was deformed. She also covered her mouth with her little hands, for fear of making any sound.

Jia Wei walked along with Baoqin in his arms, and felt that the girl was ripe and it was time to pick her...

He hugged Baoqin tighter, pinched Baoqin'er, and gestured to the side with his mouth. Baoqin understood and went aside to get some fresh air.

Jia Wei hugged Yuanchun's soft body and kissed her red lips without saying a word.

"Bah, bah, bah."

After chatting with Yuanchun for a while, Yuanchun buried her head in his chest, took a breath, and suddenly burst into sobs.

"Why are you still crying?" Jia Wei looked down at her, "Who bullied you, Yuanchun?"

Yuanchun cried, "Why did you take so long? It's been almost half a year since you came back..."

Jia Wei coaxed her with soft words, "Good Yuanchun, next time I leave the capital, as long as I take Baochai and the others with me, I will definitely take you with me."

Jia Wei's hands were wandering.

He smiled and said, "I will make it up to you if you come to the mansion tomorrow."

Yuanchun couldn't help but understand what he meant when she heard this. Her face flushed and she pushed him away: "Go in quickly. The old lady is waiting for you."

She was crying and her clothes were messed up by Jia Wei, so of course she had to go back to her room to clean them up.

After Yuanchun left, Jia Yu entered Rongqing Hall. He saw that Jia's mother was still talking to Daiyu and Baochai. Fengjie, who was pregnant, finally didn't have to stand in the rules and moved an embroidered stool to sit. She joked, "Oh, the soil and water in our southern province are good for people. Sister Bao and Sister Lin are back. Their white and delicate faces are even more beautiful and charming. It's really a bargain for some people!"

Just then, "some people" walked into the room, and the maids and old women in Rongqing Hall all smiled appropriately.

Jia Wei was very casual. He found a chair and sat down, then waved his hand for Yuanyang to come and serve him.

When Lady Jia saw him like this, she was both happy and angry!

Both Baochai and Daiyu felt ashamed. Baochai smiled, and Daiyu quickly changed the subject: "Why don't you see your aunt and Bao Erge?"

Jia's mother looked a little uncomfortable, and said with a faint smile: "Your aunt is not feeling well. The Imperial College has not finished school yet, and Baoyu has not returned yet."

Now that Jia Zheng has been transferred to the southern province, with Baoyu's lazy nature, will he really study at the Imperial College obediently?

Chai and Dai were both smart women. They knew what was going on and did not expose Lady Jia.

In fact, it was just as they thought. Jia's mother knew Baoyu's character very well and had long blocked the news of Daiyu's return to Beijing. Knowing that Daiyu would return home today, Jia's mother sent Baoyu out early...

Grandmother Jia hurriedly asked, "These two girls you brought are so beautiful. Who are they from?"

Although the topic was changed by Grandmother Jia again, Wang Xifeng and Li Wan were secretly thinking that Daiyu used to call him Baoyu, but now she calls him Second Brother Bao. After all, she is getting married and becoming distant!

Baochai then took the opportunity to pull Baoqin and Xing Xiuyun over, introduced them to each other, and exchanged greetings.

Grandmother Jia was very happy and said with a smile: "No wonder the magpies kept calling this morning. It turns out that two more good daughters have come."

Li Wan smiled but said nothing. Wang Xifeng said with a smile, "The eldest wife has a niece, and the daughter-in-law of the elder brother has a younger sister. They are like two shallots in a bunch."

Grandmother Jia was very sad because she had lost Daiyu, but when she suddenly saw Baoqin, her eyes lit up.

Baoqin is good-looking and has dignified and polite manners. In addition, she is Baochai's sister. If Baoyu marries Baoqin, he and Jia Yu will become brothers-in-law!
When Grandmother Jia thought about it this way, Baoqin actually surpassed both Baochai and Daiyu!

Now Lady Jia’s enthusiastic attitude towards Baochai is nothing more than an attempt to win over Jia Wei. If this marriage goes through, it will be more effective!
For a while, Grandmother Jia was talking to Baoqin, and everyone saw that Grandmother Jia liked her, so they all gathered around her and said good things about her.

Xing Xiuyan was considered to be ignored, and sat aside, with a calm and indifferent expression on her face, without any dissatisfaction. Wang Xifeng, Li Wan and others saw that she was like a wild crane and idle cloud, and secretly marveled at her.

Grandmother Jia held Baoqin's hand and talked with her until she was so excited that she was reluctant to let go. The more she looked at Baoqin, the more she liked her. She said, "Good girl, don't leave tonight. Sleep with me."

Baoqin knew that Lady Jia was of noble status, so she did not dare to disobey and agreed.

Suddenly Jia Wei said, "Old people all sleep lightly. That would disturb the old lady."

When Baoqin heard this, she understood what was said and politely declined while saying nice things, saying that her clothes and luggage were in Baochai's room and she was going back to sleep.

When Grandmother Jia understood what Jia Wei meant, she felt uncomfortable for a moment, but she could only endure it.

Afterwards, while looking at the gifts she had brought, Grandmother Jia asked everyone to stay for food and wine.

After leaving Lady Jia's courtyard, the girls went to pay their respects to Lady Wang first. Lady Wang disliked Daiyu, so she claimed illness as an excuse to decline. But when she saw Baochai and Baoqin coming, she had no choice but to lie on the kang and meet them, pretending to be nice to them.

Afterwards, Baochai took Xing Xiuyun to see Madam Xing. Madam Xing knew that her brother and sister-in-law were in a difficult financial situation, and she came to the capital to ask Madam Xing to build a house for them.

Mrs. Xing was not happy to begin with, and when she heard that the East Mansion had taken over the affairs of the Xing family, she felt that she had gotten rid of a big trouble, so how could she not be happy? She immediately handed Xiuyan over to Baochai...
