The Hairpin of the Red Chamber

Recently, because of Baoyu's strenuous study, Jia's mother was often not in front of her. She felt quite lonely in her old age, so she sent someone to pick up Shi Xiangyun to stay at home.Xiangyun was really eager to go out, so he urged Cuiyu to pack up his things in a hurry and come. When he saw the sisters, he talked and laughed, and was very happy. Tanchun took advantage of Jia Mu's presence to explain the meaning of the book club. Jia's mother's heart is that she doesn't want the children to take reading as a serious matter, but seeing all the granddaughters are happy, she can't bear to dismiss their intentions, so she said with a smile: "I don't know if your book club has no age limit. No limit, I would also like to join a society, and the members will be paid, how about it?"

How can everyone be willing to say no?At present Shi Xiangyun took the lead, and several people discussed livelyly. Sister Feng was the first to say that she would also pay 20 taels of silver, and she also said that she wanted to make a show. Yes, it’s boring. Let me tell you, let’s have a table at my place, and don’t need a big table. Just put five or six small tables, each with different flavors, separated by bookshelves on all sides, and on each shelf Wouldn't it be good to put different books, everyone guess the sentence, and drink fine if you lose?"

Sister Feng said with a smile: "If it's like this, it's not a book club, but an ordinary banquet. No, no, I won't go, and the members won't leave either."

Jia Mu laughed and scolded: "If you don't go, you won't go. Are we still forcing you to pay that little money? I have to add something."

Sister Feng said: "The old lady doesn't know. If it's those younger sisters, it's fine. I'm not only 20 taels. I paid for the 200 taels for them. It's just that there is a sister-in-law here. One is that I am a younger brother and sister, so I can't get over it." Let her go, two things, the eldest sister-in-law is the biggest rich man in the family, she doesn't pay, but asks me to pay, I am not convinced."

He beat Li Wan angrily and said: "For no reason, you used me as a murderer again! Am I a rich man? Don't talk nonsense."

Sister Feng smiled and said nothing.

Seeing the grandchildren, Jiamu smiled, and then asked Yuanyang, "It's so late, why hasn't Yuer come here? Don't sleep too much, and don't sleep at night."

Yuanyang then called the little girl: "Go and see Miss Bao, why isn't Miss Lin coming?"

The little girl outside smiled and said, "Isn't this here?"

The mandarin duck looked up and saw that Baochai was wearing a golden silk ruby ​​hairpin inlaid with beads on her head, a red gold collar on her neck, pea green palace tassels and suet jade pendants on her skirt, a silver-red satin jacket on her body, and plum-blossom silk on a white background. The cotton skirts, except for the damask cotton skirt, are all of the same color and almost new material. She used to have red lips without spots and emerald eyebrows without painting, but now she specially put on makeup, which makes her whiter and brighter, and her teeth whiter. Dan Lip, take a step, then stand for a while, and look back, Daiyu behind her is wearing a red double-breasted feather satin cloak, with a white jade hairpin on her head, and several rubies on the hairpin are gathered into a plum blossom, which is brilliant and dazzling.Daiyu also has spring in her eyes and a radiant face, Tingting comes in gracefully, all the way into the house, Baochai takes off her cloak without any hassle, revealing the light gold and pink two-colour flowered trousers and the peach red horse-face skirt inside.

Mother Jia saw that the two men, one plump and the other handsome, were both dressed in bright red clothes, but they had dark clouds on their temples and apricot face and peach cheeks. They had such a romantic, gentle and graceful feeling that they couldn't be described in words. A well-proportioned, plump and elegant, with affectionate dimples and shyness, is another kind of beauty that cannot be written into a book. The two talked and smiled, and walked lightly. The two said delicately: "The old lady is well." The mother of Jia smiled happily, and hugged one with one hand, but caressed and comforted her like a heart, and said on the face: "Your sister and the others are discussing." As for the matter of the book club, you came so late, we will not call you when the time comes for the book club, we are happy to go by ourselves."

Baochai only looked at Daiyu with a smile, and Daiyu rolled into Jiamu's arms like a twisted candy early on, trying to act like a baby to Baochai, boasting that Jiamu was unparalleled in heaven and rare in the earth, Everyone in the room laughed together, and Sister Feng laughed and pointed at Daiyu and said, "Look, old lady, such a sister Lin who looks like a porcelain doll, I can't help but like her, why is the old lady willing to call her?" Be a little wronged!" He took Daiyu's hand and said, "Sister Lin, don't be afraid, the old lady won't let you go, I will take you, we will go quietly, and drink up all their wine."

Mother Jia was already better, but she laughed and said, "Since I am the most kind and kind grandmother in the world, I can't embarrass my granddaughter who is the best in the world! But you came out to do this favor again .”

Sister Feng said with a smile: "I just said what the old lady was thinking first. If the old lady refuses to let go, I dare not let it go. It is the old lady who let go that I can rely on the old lady." Sister Lin also understands what she said. Tell me, the old lady is not only the most kind and kind grandmother in the world, she is the first kind person in history. Not only does such a kind person not care about such For small things, I’m afraid I need to post some money to take care of them for us.”

Jia Mu laughed and scolded: "It's really the housekeeper who has lost his temper. He said that he was just talking about money. Come on, come on, since I was given such an account by you, I must have some blood. This time I will be the host. how?"

Tanchun saw that Jiamu was the host, and the book club would not be able to succeed, but it was not easy to disobey, so he applauded with all the sisters. As long as Daiyu was with Baochai, it didn't matter, and she responded with a smile. When he got excited, he immediately asked Yuanyang to get the money, and asked Sister Feng and Li Wan to deal with it.

Daiyu saw that there was a lot of talk there, she took Baochai out, and Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun and Xiangyun all turned out, and they all sat and talked in the Baosha together.

Xiangyun and Baochai haven't seen each other for a long time, and at a glance, they can see that Baochai is different from the past. He said with a smile: "Sister Bao is more and more outstanding. I don't know what balm you use, so smooth?"

Baochai said with a smile: "My elder brother came back from the south to search for Fangzi. He used jade from Suzhou, ground it into powder, mixed it with the saliva of a virgin girl, and mixed 99 kinds of flower dew, and applied it on the face. The effect will be seen within a few days. "

Daiyu listened to her nonsense, reached out and pinched her on the back, Baochai's face remained unchanged, Xiangyun and the others were dubious, and they all said it was so precious.

Everyone talked for a while, played with Shuanglu for a while, and then dispersed. Baochai and Daiyu were inseparable, and the two came out holding hands. Xiangyun hurriedly called out: "Sister Bao Where are you going?"

Daiyu was rather displeased. She glanced at Baochai, who smiled at Xiangyun and said, "I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, and I want to go and say hello to her."

Xiang Yun smiled and said: "I may not have seen her for a long time, I will go with you."

Daiyu frowned, Baochai patted her hand, and said, "That's fine." Then the three of them walked around slowly, and it happened that Mrs. Wang was talking to Mrs. Xing there, and Mrs. Xing brought an autumn Tong, there is Aunt Zhao in front of Mrs. Wang, and both of them stand at the door to serve.

Seeing the three people coming, Qiu Tong dared not do anything with her hands in her sleeves. Aunt Zhao had to open the curtain to let the three of them in, and led them to sit inside, but she stared at Qiu Tong.

Qiu Tong is young and beautiful, how could she like an old and decrepit person like Aunt Zhao, she raised her nostrils and ignored her.

Baochai and Daiyu looked at each other with a smile, and said a few common words to Mrs. Wang, Baochai said: "Long time no see, Brother Huan's handwriting is getting better and better."

When Aunt Zhao heard Kua Jiahuan, she also raised her head and looked sideways at Qiutong.

Mrs. Wang said: "It's unknown what will happen to his child's family in the future."

Aunt Zhao snorted when she heard this, and even looked at Jia Huan. Madam Xing said with a smile: "At a young age, if you know how to study hard, you will have a good future in the future."

Mrs. Wang said nothing, but asked Baochai, "Are you used to living there? How is your mother?"

Baochai said: "Mother is very good, but there are few people on the other end and it's a bit boring. She often says she wants to see my aunt."

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "When the repair here is completed, you should still stay here. It will be convenient for everyone to get closer and talk."

Baochai said: "We were still thinking about inviting you to go and play for a day, but we just moved in recently, everything is in a mess, and when it's all done, please old lady, two wives and all the sisters come over and have a taste. Try our homemade side dishes."

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "Definitely."

Mrs. Xing saw that she and Baochai were chatting excitedly, and she was not at ease, so she went out first. Before she left, Qiu Tong nailed Aunt Zhao. Be with her.
