From the Red Mansion, you can travel through the world of martial arts

Chapter 344 Hengwu Garden

Due to overwork, Jia Wei slept until almost noon the next day. In the evening, he led Xiangling to the garden.

When they reached the archery range beside Tianxiang Tower, they suddenly saw Qin Keqing leading Ruizhu and Baozhu towards them.

Jia Wei couldn't help but think, he thought that he had seen Qin Keqing quite a few times after he came back, could it be that she was deliberately creating chance encounters?

Qin Keqing was also startled when she saw Jia Wei, and a little panic appeared on her face, but the two of them collided head-on, and the arrows could only move forward and backward, so she had no choice but to come forward to greet him.

"Hello, Uncle."

A beauty like Qin Keqing's voice alone is enough to seduce people.

"Ah."

The master and his servant all bowed their heads and greeted each other, which gave Jia Wei an opportunity to take a look at her. He saw that Qin Keqing was wearing a light pink dress with white lining, and her face was as white as a pear.

"Where are you going?" he asked casually.

Qin Keqing was just about to retreat to the side of the road and let Jia Wei go first, but she was stunned when she suddenly heard him ask a question.

She quickly replied, "It turned out that Second Aunt Lian was pregnant. I went there this afternoon to deliver some supplements and talked to her for a while. I just came back and was about to go back to the courtyard."

Jia Wei nodded. Since Wang Xifeng was pregnant, she would definitely put aside her duties as a housekeeper temporarily and focus on taking care of the baby.

But given Feng Jieer's personality, she must be extremely bored without being able to wield power every day. As her best friend, Qin Keqing would naturally go and keep her company to relieve her boredom.

Jia Wei was very interested in Wang Xifeng's recent situation, but it was too strange to ask his nephew's wife about Jia Lian's wife directly...

He made up his mind to find a time to sneak over there.

Jia Wei glanced at Qin Keqing again and said calmly, "Today Baochai is inviting guests to the garden. Let's go together."

Qin Keqing was stunned again...

Given Baochai's tactful personality, she would definitely not be left out when inviting Yuanchun, Tanchun and other sisters from the West Mansion to be the host.

Of course, Qin Keqing knew her place. As a widow and unemployed woman, it would be tactless for her to force herself into the relationship, so she declined. But since Jia Wei had invited her in person, she couldn't refuse.

"Yes, Uncle Wei."

Qin Keqing had no choice but to bow and follow Jia Wei through Tianxiang Tower and into the garden.

Qin Keqing felt embarrassed walking on the street. She had rejected Baochai's invitation, and now she followed Jia Wei in. What was going on?

In the afternoon, Baochai and Baoqin came to Hengwu Garden, cleaned and tidied, set up the table and moved the chairs. Soon, Xing Xiuyun and Miaoyu's best friends also came, and they sent someone to invite Xichun.

Soon, the girls from the West Mansion also arrived, including Yuanchun, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xiangyun. After Wang Xifeng became pregnant, she never left the house, so it was impossible for her to come to the East Mansion for a feast. Li Wan was a person who did not compete with the world, needless to say.

Daiyu had returned to the Lin family in Buzhenfang, so naturally she couldn't come.

In a few days, the Marquis' Mansion will go to the Lin family to "ask for the date" and confirm the auspicious day for the wedding. Before that, Daiyu must stay in the house obediently and show filial piety to her old father.

Last night, Jia's mother asked her to stay, but Daiyu declined on the grounds that she had to go home to serve her father Lin Ruhai medicine...

In the afternoon, rays of dazzling sunlight illuminated the courtyard. In Hengwu Garden, Baochai was entertaining Yuanchun, Tanchun and others, who were chatting and laughing intimately and enthusiastically.

Suddenly they saw Jia Wei come in and they all looked at him sideways.

"Second brother, why are you here just now! You are so late. I will punish you by making you drink a glass of wine later." Before anyone else could speak, Xiangyun called out first, with a sweet smile on her lovely face.

"Not to mention one cup, even three cups is no problem." Jia Wei smiled and bowed, "I have been busy with official duties all day, and I am sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time."

He told lies without blushing or getting nervous, and even had the leisure to sneak a peek at Yuanchun.

All the beauties hurriedly bowed in return. In Jia Wei's eyes, the beautiful lady in the gorgeous dress also bowed slightly. Yuanchun's radiant face, with smiling eyes and eyebrows, was calm and peaceful.

Baoqin's pair of bright eyes moved. This morning at noon she went to look for Baochai and saw that Jia Wei was still asleep.

She thought that Jia Wei, an uncle, was lying to these sisters. It was very interesting and a little strange for a moment...

Nowadays, the mainstream men are those who are serious and self-proclaimed as gentlemen like Jia Zheng.

Baochai was no longer surprised and went to greet Qin Keqing.

Qin Keqing greeted her. Seeing this girl younger than herself, she actually felt a little guilty, just like a concubine's natural fear of the first wife...

"Aunt Second Wei, I just met Uncle Wei at the archery range, and then..."

Baochai just smiled and said, "It seems that next time I have to invite you in person before you are willing to come!" Then she took Qin Keqing's hand and greeted her.

"Two large deer were sent from the farm below. Your second brother asked the kitchen to kill one, cut it into slices, and send it over for roasted deer meat."

After hearing what Baochai said, Yuanchun continued, "Let the maids prepare it, and we will roast it and eat it ourselves, that will be more interesting."

Jia Wei teased, "I can't do these things. Big sister, are you going to roast a piece of mine?"

Yuanchun was teased by Jia Wei in front of Baochai, and she felt a little guilty for a moment. She didn't even dare to look at Baochai and just smiled and said ok.

"A gentleman stays away from the kitchen, how can we let the eldest marquis do it himself?" Tanchun also laughed, "Of course, we sisters will do the roasting, and the second brother will only be responsible for eating."

Yingchun and Xichun both said yes, and Xiangyun also laughed: "It's good to eat venison. Sister Bao must bring some good wine. I like wine after eating this. After drinking, let's write poetry!"

Jia Wei felt overwhelmed after hearing this, but the girls in these two mansions were all high-level intellectuals, and they all played elegant roles, either writing poems or couplets...

While several maids were still preparing the meal, the girls held hands and strolled around Hengwu Garden.

Looking outside, I saw two rows of weeping willows mixed with peach and apricot trees by the pond, blocking out the sun. There were also strange rocks blocking the outside, making it look very quiet.

Some of the girls really liked this place and praised it as a good place. Some did not like it, but they all knew that it was the place chosen by Jia Wei for Baochai to live in, so they praised it against their will.

Then walk out from the main house and along the winding corridor, you can see the green windows and oil-painted walls of the corridor with curved eaves, which are elegant and unique. There are many flowers and plants in the courtyard, and the fragrance is refreshing.

Miaoyu suddenly said, "If I brew tea and play the zither in this pavilion, I don't need to burn incense. It's like being isolated from the world, which makes me feel peaceful."

After hearing what Miaoyu said, everyone nodded in agreement. Even the daughter, who had originally had no feelings for Hengwu Garden, began to like the artistic conception of this place.

Tanchun and Xiangyun both thought that the garden in the West Mansion was nothing compared to this.

"Only our sister Bao is blessed with a good fortune to live in this courtyard." Xiangyun said with a smile: "Second brother Wei built this garden, it's really good. I think the palace villas are no better than this. In the future, we must ask sister Bao and sister Lin, the two marquis' wives, to show mercy and let us come here often to play."

Baochai smiled and said, "That's right. If you like it, I will ask the old lady tomorrow to let you move into the garden and live there as long as you want..."
