The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 55 A Tragic Misfortune

Chapter 55
(Second more sent~~)

Xiren secretly blamed Shi Xiangyun for being troublesome. The tea that the second master used was served by the master and other guests. Xiren was locked in his own small cabinet, and he was not disturbed on weekdays. It was the last time Shi Xiangyun came. After personally ordering, Xiren had no choice but to make a tea bowl, and she missed it no matter who thought about it.

Xiren smiled and pointed to the hot tea in the gaiwan: "I know that the second master and the girls came here after eating at the old lady's place, and I'm afraid that the food will accumulate in the stomach, so I made my daughter's tea early, which suits the girls' taste , better than Yuqian, Lu'an, and Maojian that Second Master used to drink."

Jia Baoyu took the tea bowl from Xiren, and ate it while muttering: "It's finished so soon? I remember getting up early and you brought me a bowl!" Xiren hurriedly kicked Jia Baoyu's boots, and said heavily: " Isn't the second master in a hurry to enjoy the flowers, why don't you go there?"

Jia Baoyu took a bite before being pushed and dragged to the table by the attackers. There were two tables for the Eight Immortals, Baochai, Daiyu and Xiuyan, and the sisters of the Li family, led by Li Wan, Shi Xiangyun, Baoqin and Sanchun. Jia Baoyu and Jia Baoyu are at the same table, Xiren leads Sheyue and others to serve one table, and Qingwen serves another table with autumn patterns.

Two pots of white narcissus flowers are placed on the small peach blossom table on the kang for people to watch.

Shi Xiangyun pulled out the hairpin on his head and knocked on the big blue and white bowl in front of him: "Even though I love brother to be the host today, but I'm returning my table, so I don't want to say a few words. We already have the Begonia Club, the Chrysanthemum Club, I also know how well the sisters' poems are written, but the new sisters from the Li family, Miss Qin and Miss Xing haven't shown their talents."

Xing Xiuyan turned her back to Shi Xiangyun, and when she heard Shi Xiangyun address the four of them, she sneered unconsciously.This girl is really clearly divided, she is also a sister and a girl, and she becomes Miss Xing alone.

Yingchun was next to Shi Xiangyun, and was busy pulling the corner of her skirt underneath, and said in a muffled voice: "Sister Yun, please sit down, I'll toast you a glass of wine."

Xiangyun thought that Jia Yingchun was defending her aunt's cousin, and angrily pulled back the corner of her skirt, laughing even sweeter: "Xiang Ling from Sister Bao's family has also learned poetry for a few days, and Sister Lin and I are still hers. As for the half-masters, how about calling them too, we all just look at a few of their poems, how about judging the top names?"

Xiangling, who was serving outside, was pushed in by Shi Xiangyun's girl, and Cuilu smiled and shouted inside: "Xiangling is still shy." Xiangling put her feet on the ground, held the door frame with one hand, and looked at Xue Baochai at a loss: "Girl, I didn't!"

Xue Baochai guessed Shi Xiangyun's intentions. They all heard that the Xing family had a hard time in the past. They only prospered in the past two or three years. They used to live in rented houses. How can a girl of such a background write good poems?Not to mention comparing with Bao Qin, the two sisters Coco Li and Li Qi are probably a bit better than her.

If Xiangling was at the bottom, even if it meant ridicule, Xing Xiuyan would not be so embarrassed. After all, Xiangling has only been writing poems for a few days?
Baochai said sorry to Xiangling secretly in her heart, and got up and pulled her to her side. The little girl had already added a chair, Baochai said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, you Master Lin and Master Yun are not afraid, you just have to be big Dare to say, there are us anyway!"

Xiangling looked anxiously at Xing Xiuyan beside her, and Xiuyan was already holding her hand with a smile: "You are the Xiangling that Sister Lin mentioned? You really look good, don't worry, I am also a poor layman, we two are stepping The hammer on the scale is as hard as iron, and eight taels are half a catty, neither up nor down."

Seeing what Xing Xiuyan said, Xiangling gradually became more confident.She had long been envious of the talents of these young ladies, and only regretted that she was not born like a young lady, otherwise she would be able to play with everyone.Seeing these people supporting her today, Xiangling secretly swore that she would not dare to take the lead, but she must not be left behind.

Xiuyan looked at the little girl gritted her teeth fiercely, almost didn't laugh, but her eyes fell on the daffodils on the peach blossom table.

"Sister, do you have a good sentence in your heart?" Daiyu is probably the only one in the room who is really worried about Xing Xiuyan, because she has lived in Xing's house and knows that her sister's heart is not here.

Daiyu wanted to think of some good sentences and secretly told Xiuyan, but before she finished, Shi Xiangyun, who had been staring at them for a long time, shouted loudly: "Punish her quickly, and pass it on in private!"

She hated Daiyu so much that she ran over and knocked Xiangyun's hand with her chopsticks. Xiangyun smiled and ran behind Jia Baoyu to hide: "Good sister, I won't say it again next time."

Jia Baoyu got up to persuade this one and stop that one. Daiyu held silver chopsticks in her hand, which looked like rattan sticks on people's bodies.

Everyone fell silent, Li Wan hurried over, looked at Baoyu's reddish hands, feeling a little uneasy, "I have plaster over there, rub it, don't let the old lady see it."

Baoyu endured the pain, forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I was not careful. My sister-in-law just hide it for us."

When Shi Xiangyun saw the red mark, it was particularly glaring, okay, if Brother Ai hadn't blocked it for her just now, wouldn't it have hit him?It's fine if it's the back of the hand, but what about the face?Shi Xiangyun didn't even dare to think about the consequences.She immediately yelled: "It's all swollen, so it's okay! If the master asks Brother Ai to do his homework at night, how can he hold the pen with this hand? Sister Lin is too cruel."

Everyone in the room laughed dryly, and Dao Xiangyun made too much fuss.Unexpectedly, Shi Xiangyun is just a big broom. Not long after she finished speaking, Caiyun, the eldest girl of Mrs. Wang, came over and sent a message: "Hey, the second master is here. Let me tell you when the master is at breakfast. We will arrive in the evening." Ma'am, he wants to test the homework of the school's second master."

This time even Shi Xiangyun was dumbfounded, she, she just said that.

Jia Baoyu's calf gave way and he fell to the ground.Yingchun and Tanchun hurriedly pulled him up, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there will always be a wife blocking it!"

The room was almost in chaos, and Du Tanchun dispatched his staff neatly, "Qingwen, go find Caixia and ask the master what else he said. Besides, what did the master look like when he woke up early and mentioned Baoyu? Are you happy or happy?" Angry. Sheyue, go find Mingyan and ask Mingyan to go to the outer study to ask the master's servant what book the master is reading recently and which page he saw. You must ask clearly. Qiuwen, you go to contact Li Zhong's Daughter-in-law, ask Li Zhong to find out what guests the master will have today, is there a dinner tonight? When will you be back."

The three maids were about to go out after getting the order, and Tanchun hurriedly stopped them, and turned to look at Xiren who was holding Baoyu's back and blowing: "Hurry up and get the silver, and tell the three of them to go and get some money."

Both Li Coco and Li Qi came to Xing Xiuyan's side, Li Qi stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice: "My God, I just realized today why Mother always said that Jia's family is very disciplined, even meeting her own father is so particular."

Xiuyan was overjoyed, if she wasn't afraid of being beaten by Shi Xiangyun and the others, she would have praised Li Qi, this little girl, she hit the nail on the head, her words were too funny, but she still acted serious!
