The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 80 Subdue the Attacking Granny (Pink)

Mother Jia ate wine at Xing's house, and Mrs. Lu was a master at playing leaf cards. With Aunt Xue flattering her and Aunt Li at her side, the old lady's trip to visit relatives was very fulfilling.But after all, I am old, and I can't hold it anymore once I return to the main courtyard. After the mandarin ducks have served to clean up, the old lady sent these children into the garden, leaving Baoqin alone by her side.

Others are okay, Daiyu was the first to go back to rest, everyone saw her and Xing Xiuyan being intimate, and knew that the two sisters had endless things to say, and no one forced them.Li Wan took two cousins ​​back to Daoxiang Village, and Jia Baoyu and Baochai were on the same road. Seeing that it was still early and they hadn't had dinner at Xing's house, they invited his sister Bao to Yihong Courtyard.

Xue Baochai wanted to break up the relationship with Jia Baoyu, so she smiled and politely declined the offer.

Jia Baoyu didn't care, and hurried back to the Yihong Courtyard holding the water bird that was as precious as his love.As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he heard his nanny, Nanny Li, scolding people. Baoyu frowned, and suddenly pushed open the gate and went in.

There were seven or eight little girls and women standing in the yard, all stretching their necks to watch the commotion inside, and suddenly they were startled by the noise. Seeing that it was Baoyu, a clever girl wanted to report the news inside.

Jia Baoyu gave the girl a hard look, and everyone hurriedly dispersed, looking for work.

Baoyu, the nanny, likes to drink and gamble the most, but unlike Yingchun's nanny, Nanny Li is wholeheartedly good to Baoyu.She couldn't get used to those two-faced things. When she lived in the back room of the old lady, Nanny Li regarded the attack as a serious problem, always thinking that the other party was Baoyu who came to harm her.

It's just that Nanny Li is very quiet, she said it to Mrs. Wang a few times, but Mrs. Wang not only didn't listen, but felt that Nanny Li was noisy and was telling stories.If it weren't for Nanny Li's age and her merits, Mrs. Wang would definitely never ask her to enter the garden again.

"You don't have to act like a young lady here to show your temper. You are kind-hearted when you look at Baoyu, and you will become more and more unruly. The old lady is most taboo to put some white filial piety in the house. You have a good hoof. Who is it that you put the fruit to the bad luck? Are you afraid that Baoyu will be safe!"

Xiren was angry and ashamed, and Musk Moon had to come over to help with a few words.

"Mom, don't say that. Xiren just lost her mother, and we all feel sorry for her. Besides, it's just a few fruits!"

"Bah! If you dare to place fruit today, you will dare to bring in tablets tomorrow! You really don't treat yourself as an outsider! That two taels of silver is easy to spend? You are not afraid of burning your hands and ruining your face. The wife praises you, I'll show you a white-eyed wolf, I'll go back to my wife right now, and see how my wife punishes you!"

Xiren listened to Nanny Li's words getting worse and worse, and fell down on Baoyu's bed in shame and wept.

Nanny Li's heart became more and more angry, and she was about to come to drag her on crutches.Qiu Wen and Bi Hen came over to dissuade them, Li Nanny took advantage of the strength of the wine, and whipped them twice with a crutch, the little maids were afraid and dared not go forward.

There was chaos in the room.

Baoyu walked in angrily, and said, "Mom should also control her temper. Let's not say whether the attacker is wrong or not. She is mine after all. Does it depend on me if mother wants to beat or kill? I don't know, it turns out that the master of Yihong Courtyard is my mother. Since this is the case, I will not dare to use Li Gui from now on, who would let him be my mother's son!"

Li Gui is Jia Baoyu's long-term follower, just like a small steward, when Baoyu goes to school, or goes to Beijing Palace, Li Gui always follows him.This man is decent and his wife gives rewards from time to time, so many eyes are staring at him, if Li Gui's mother is Baoyu's nanny, how could he have made it to this day?

Nanny Li knew the power here, but hated Baoyu even more for being ruthless.

The last time they quarreled, Wang Xifeng smoothed things over, but today Baoyu intentionally embarrassed Li Nanny, and none of the servant girls came out to persuade her.

Nanny Li helped her granddaughter with red face, even forgot to pick up the kidnapper, and fled out of Yihong Courtyard in a panic.

Qingwen smiled and clapped her hands: "Someone has punished this woman! Even I can't stand it anymore. Attacking people is just paying homage to her biological mother, but listen, it seems like a heinous crime!"

Xiren on the couch had already stopped crying, and hurriedly said: "My good sister, please don't say a few words, I am too ashamed to see others, do you have to kneel down and admit my mistake?"

Qingwen put away her smile, coldly flicked her sleeves and went to the outer room.Baoyu's heart softened, and she hurriedly smiled and pulled Qingwen back, and then turned her head to yell at the sad attacker on the couch: "I went to Xing's house today, and sister Xing even gave you some good things, come and share!"

Sheyue took the opportunity to whisper in Xiren's ear and whispered: "Baoyu made it clear that he is protecting you. You are so smart, so don't be so arrogant."

Xiren understood Musk Moon's painstaking efforts, but he couldn't turn this corner around.

Her mother passed away a few years ago, and even the wife allowed her to go home to express her condolences according to the aunt's etiquette. Who in the house doesn't know who doesn't know?Only Nanny Li was against her.

It turned out that Xiren saw that during the Spring Festival, everyone in Yihong Courtyard gathered in front, the room was deserted, and she was the only one guarding the door.Xiren couldn't help thinking of last year when she was still having fun with the sisters of her second aunt's family, her mother cooked a whole table of delicious food, and her brother and sister-in-law offered her up like a treasure.But soon after his mother passed away, Xiren put three plates of fruit on the table, found a censer for burning incense, and was about to secretly burn some paper money for his mother, but Madam Li rushed in.

Although Xiren knew that what he did was a bit dishonest, Nanny Li shouldn't have completely swept her face away.

Even the second wife promised her the identity of her aunt, so why should a wet nurse make things difficult for her!
There were constant conversations in the outer room, especially Qingwen's piercing laughter, Xiren could only endure the discomfort in his heart and walk out.

Baoyu excitedly distributed the gifts he brought back to everyone, most of them were agate earrings or emerald rings, elegant but not vulgar, exquisite but not expensive, perfect for these girls.

Of course, Jia Baoyu did not forget to praise Xing Xiuyan: "Even the ancestors praised Sister Xing for her ability to do things well. I see, Sister Bao may not be able to catch up with her."

Xiren felt displeased, "It's fine to talk about what you say in our room, but don't say it in front of outsiders. It's nothing for you to praise Miss Xing, but you shouldn't use Miss Bao as a raft to ridicule."

"Who is ridiculing Sister Bao! Even Sister Bao admires Sister Xing. Let's say that in the garden of my uncle's house today, the two of them are whispering. I think they have long regarded them as confidants. "

Xiren stroked Jia Baoyu's fur, and smiled meekly: "Don't mention this first, I just remembered something, and I was about to ask you for an idea. Ying'er next to Miss Bao had her birthday on the fourteenth day of the first month. I thought about it." , She is Miss Bao's big girl after all, we didn't show any bad things."

Qingwen was trying on the ring, when she heard the words, she glanced lightly at Xiren and kept sneering.

Jia Baoyu clapped his hands: "I'm so confused, why did I forget it! After all, it's your hard work! Sister Bao has always done little things there. She doesn't even send flowers in spring and summer from the yard. Sister Bao will definitely not bother the small kitchen Yinger's birthday."

"So, I thought about secretly inviting Ying'er to come over and sit down for a while, and ask Mama Liu in the small kitchen to cook some special dishes, and Sheyue and I will accompany her to have a few glasses of wine."

Yinger is Xue Baochai's confidant, just like Xiren and Baoyu.Mrs. Wang's intentions cannot be concealed from Xiren, and she is devoted to paving the way for the future. If Miss Bao marries, or asks Yinger to be a companion, or takes Yinger as a concubine, Xiren will make friends with her. it is good.

Baoyu only thought that the attacker was sincerely for Xue Baochai, and pulled the attacker and said with emotion: "Fortunately, I have you to remind me. It is not easy for Yinger to follow Sister Bao. I remember that my wife rewarded you with two bolts of satin?"

Xiren's smile froze, and he hurriedly concealed his anger and said: "You don't need to say it! I have already prepared a gift for Ying'er. The spring shirt that Musk Moon and I made together, you are still applauding!"

But Jia Baoyu shook his head stubbornly: "No, no, sister Bao likes to be plain, and her girl will be eye-catching if she wears bright red. But the two pieces of material given by my wife are of a moderate color, which perfectly matches Ying'er's character."

Mrs. Wang herself is a vegetarian, believes in Buddhism, and worships Buddha. In addition to her age, there are no bright fabrics in the cage.It's relatives who send each other off, and I know Mrs. Wang's preferences.The two pieces of silk and satin that Xi Ren got were a new year gift from Prince Tengtuo to his sister from the south. One was a couple and the other was light yellow. Mrs. Wang thought the color was too delicate, so she gave it to Xi Ren, and she didn't even get Tanchun.

Of course Xiren didn't want to, but Jia Baoyu turned to talk about other things, so she could only swallow the bitterness in her stomach.

But Xiuyan and Daiyu live in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, chatting and laughing every day, and Baochai comes to the door every day, and even the small kitchen knows: Miss Bao doesn't have to send her meals to Hengwuyuan, just come directly to Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

The Sanchun sisters didn't dare to come forward because Yingchun felt guilty, so Tanchun and Xichun played with Baoqin, and everyone gathered in Daoxiang Village from time to time.

Li Wan entertained him warmly on the face, but complained in secret. In the next year, the master will test the knowledge of Baoyu, Jia Huan and Lan Geer.Unexpectedly, people in Daoxiang Village kept coming and going, and Li Wan didn't dare to ask Lan Geer to study in the study outside, in case the master knew why and punished Baoyu.The old lady was naturally displeased with Baoyu's suffering, so how could she give her mother and son a good face?
After three or four days, at the beginning of the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Li Wan claimed to be sick, so he turned away all the guests.Li Wan was afraid that Coco Li and Li Qi would spot her, so she urged their sisters to play in the garden, not to mention urging Jia Lan to study.

As the fifteenth day of the first lunar month approached, Liu Guogong suddenly posted a post, and their old lady invited some old friends from their youth to sit down.

Mother Jia accepted the post and remained silent for a long while.

Jia Baoyu and Tanchun didn't know why, so they didn't dare to speak casually.

Mrs. Wang sighed secretly, if Wang Xifeng was here at this moment, she would have planned many ideas for the old lady, and now she regrets not keeping Wang Xifeng for a few years, at least it would not be too late to drive Baochai out after she came in.

"Old lady, according to my daughter-in-law, Liu Guogong's family has to go. The palace has already revealed that it will not wait for the draft, and will pick up the young lady of the Liu family in the next year. And we will be named noble concubine when we go in. We can't just say nothing." !"

Jia Mu pondered for a long time before asking in a low voice: "You have seen that young lady from the Liu family, what kind of appearance did she have that can make the emperor fascinated?"
