The Jade in the Red Chamber is the Royal Courtyard

Until the head of the willow on the moon, Xi Ren returned to his green gauze cupboard with Baoyu's support. Most of the people in the room had already rested, only Qingwen and Ling's maid, Sheyue, were still holding needlework on the other side. Holding something while talking.

"You haven't rested yet?" Baoyu asked with a smile when she saw Qingwen and Sheyue. Qingwen is a beautiful woman, gorgeous, and pungent. Needlework, so she was sent by Jia Mu to Baoyu's side to take care of Baoyu's needlework.

So Baoyu also loves Qingwen very much, but Xiren handles all the big and small things around him, so he doesn't care about Qingwen.

"Second master and Xiren's sister haven't come back yet, how dare we sleep!" Qingwen looked at Xiren with a different meaning in her eyes, and said with something in her words, and there was a bit of bitterness in her tone. mean.

"Just go to bed first, when did I ask you to do this?" Baoyu sat down with a smile and looked at Qingwen intently, Qingwen's delicate appearance made Baoyu's heart flutter for a while.

Especially Baoyu had just tasted the taste of a woman in Xiren, and now seeing so many top-notch beauties in his room, his heart was agitated, especially Qingwen's eyebrows were somewhat similar to Daiyu.

"Second master never asked us, and I'm afraid the second grandma in the future will. It's better to get used to these things earlier." Qingwen said with a smile, and glanced at Xiren.

Xiren's face turned red all of a sudden, it was the first time that she and Baoyu had such a relationship, and no one usually went to those places, why did Qingwen speak so strangely today, every sentence seemed like Unintentionally, but every word was stuck in her heart.

"Qingwen, please stop making trouble. Even if Second Master has Second Mistress, he will forget about us. Let's fetch water for Second Master to take a bath!" Xi Ren said with a smile on the side, but his eyes kept sneaking glances at Qing Wen, she wants to know whether Qingwen said that by accident or on purpose.

Sure enough, when Qingwen heard what Xiren said, she immediately raised her head with a smile that was not a smile, her eyes showed contempt, she looked at Xiren with a smile and said: "Sister Xiren is not afraid, she is protected by the second master, just Pity us little girls, I'm afraid we will be in trouble in the future."

When Xiren heard Xiren's words, his face turned red. It seems that Qingwen knows something?But what is going on here, I just met Baoyu today... The more Xiren thought about it, the more he didn't understand.

"Okay, sister Xiren, don't listen to Qingwen's sharp teeth, hurry up and serve Bao Erye to wash up, I'm afraid there will be a nanny to check the yard in a while." She Yue said hastily from the side .

"I'm going to serve the second master!" Xiren's face turned red all of a sudden, she and Baoyu had just finished their ups and downs, and now she has to take care of the little ancestor to take a bath, if she is usually eager to serve Baoyu, so This kind of close work is all done by her, for fear that others will snatch it away, but now she doesn't want to, because she also wants to enjoy a hot bath very much now, when she was about to say no, she saw Qingwen's smile was not a smile, and Xiren's heart skipped a beat. She knew that if she refused today, Qingwen might be even more suspicious, so she gritted her teeth and agreed.

In fact, Baoyu didn't really want Xiren to serve her. On the one hand, he was sympathetic to Xiren's just broken melon, and he asked her twice in a row; When it comes to Qingwen and Sheyue, these two people, especially Qingwen, have similar eyebrows to sister Lin. If they can go to the clouds and rain with Qingwen, they don't know what it will be like.But Baoyu saw that Xiren readily agreed, but he couldn't refute, because after all, this was his new love.

"You don't have a good rest yourself, and you still come to serve me?" Baoyu said gently, holding Xiren's hand.Once in the bathroom, Baoyu took off his clothes and went into the bathtub, while Xiren only wore a bellyband to scrub Baoyu's body.

"What? You don't like me serving you anymore?" Xiren smiled sweetly, stretched out his hand and gently pulled it out of Baoyu's hand.

"Why don't you like it? It's just that you are tired." Baoyu looked at Xiren tenderly, and Xiren also helped Baoyu wash his body very gently.

"Why do you get tired from serving you?" Xi Ren smiled brighter.

"Xiren, you are so beautiful!" Baoyu looked at Xiren's bulging body under his bellyband, and involuntarily covered his hands with the soft silk.

"Second Master!" Xi Ren's voice was rough, after all, she had just learned about personnel.

"Hehehe!" Baoyu stood up all of a sudden, and directly dragged Xiren into the bathtub. Even if two people bathed together in the huge bathtub, it was not necessarily crowded.

"I want to taste you here!" Baoyu hugged Xiren vigorously and put him on his body.

The night was even deeper, and the lover naturally felt that the long night passed quickly... and the bright moon in the sky seemed to be smiling non-stop, watching all this quietly through the screen window. Under the outer window, someone quietly and forcefully said "Bah!", and then left quickly.

"Girl!" As soon as Zijuan returned to Daiyu's room, she saw that everyone was busy, and the two maids from Jia's family also appeared, cleaning the room non-stop.

But Daiyu turned her face inside without saying a word. The redness and swelling on Wang Nanny's face dissipated. She sat by Daiyu's bed and talked with Daiyu, but it was Wang Nanny who said a few or two words. Daiyu didn't speak for a long time.

Xueyan and Xueyan were tidying up their things coldly, as for Xuelan, she was sitting aside, embroidering her things, while Xuezhu brought Daiyu's beloved Xuxu and Xiaobei into the house up.The dull atmosphere made Xiao Bei, who was originally lively, silent. Only Xu Xu jumped onto Daiyu's bed unconsciously, arching his little head, and arching it directly into Daiyu's arms, snoring. Fell asleep.

"Second Master Bao sent him back?" Seeing Zijuan came back, Xue Lan raised her head and looked at Zijuan and asked slowly.

"Send it back!" Zicuckoo replied quickly.

"Girl, I know you are angry with me, and I know you are all angry with me, Wang Momo, but Zijuan can't help it." Zijuan's eyes turned red when she saw that everyone ignored her. Tears of grievance fell down.

"But we dare not be angry with Miss Zijuan. You must know that Miss Zijuan is a person who is very good at judging the situation." Xueyan is a little pepper. Although she is not very talkative, she speaks sharply. Yes, and because she is the youngest, although everyone treats her as a younger sister, they respect her because she was the first person to follow Daiyu.

But Zijuan didn't know this. She always thought that the youngest Xueyan was just a playmate for Daiyu, and the leader among the four snows should also be Xueyan. Xuezhu Li's mother has already told Zijuan that she is a maid bought by Daiyu on the pier, so she doesn't pay much attention to Xuezhu Zijuan.But she didn't expect that Xueyan, the youngest among the four snows, would attack her first.

"Go ahead and play, what does your little Jia family know at such an age?" Zijuan glanced at Xueyan, and also mentioned Wang Momo with some meaning, which meant that Daiyu was young and ignorant , but your mother Wang should be ignorant, right?

"Zicuckoo, why do you still accuse Sang and scold Huai for doing something wrong? Do you think that the girl is too young to understand what you say, or do you think we are from the south and cannot hear your crooked words?" Xue Lan Still sitting aside, looking at Zicuckoo coldly.

"Sister Xuelan, what are you talking about? I was given to the girl by the old lady, and I serve the girl. I can only serve the girl in this life, but Zijuan has absolutely no second thoughts about the girl." Zijuan said a little Looking at Xuelan dissatisfied, to be honest, Zijuan looked down on Xuelan the most among the four snows, because Xuelan was the only one among the four snows who couldn't read well, and Xuelan's hands were somewhat rough, and she looked dry at first glance. Born as a coolie, Xuelan is the most frugal, and has never been extravagant or wasteful.

"Yes, you were given to my girl by the old lady of the Jia family, but you should also know that if you enter the Lin family, you are a member of the Lin family, and you have to abide by the rules of the Lin family. Let me ask you, who told you to let me go?" Did Jia Baoyu let her into the girl's boudoir?" Xue Lan's face turned cold, and she immediately reprimanded her loudly.

Zijuan's expression paused, and he immediately said: "Second Master Bao has always entered Jia's girls casually, but he has never heard of such a rule."

"The second master Bao of the Jia family is the second master Bao of the Jia family, not the second master of my Lin family. Even if the men of my Lin family want to come to my girl, they have to report together first, and then the girl will meet in the small living room outside. , instead of directly entering the hall, but how did you do it? Could it be that this is the rule of your Rongguo Mansion?" Xue Lan said lightly, but there was endless majesty in her tone.

"I, I, the second master came to see the girl..." Zijuan defended his behavior.

"So what if you come and see? Men and women have different rooms at the age of three, and different seats at the age of nine. You know that?" Xue Lan continued to ask.

Zijuan stood there in embarrassment, glanced at the expressions of the people around her, but saw that everyone around her was looking at her, but no one dared to say anything.

"Girl, I'm doing this for..." Zijuan's eyes turned red and she hurried forward and knelt down in front of Daiyu's bed.

"Zicuckoo, don't make a mistake on your knees, don't you know? All the maids and wives in Lin's mansion belong to me. This is the right given to me by the Lin family." Xue Lan said lightly, her eyes were full of Looking at Zijuan disdainfully, Daiyu didn't even move when she heard Xuelan's words, she was still chatting with Wang Momo without saying a word.

Zijuan was stunned for a moment, she never thought that Xuelan, whom she despised the most, was in charge of such a big matter as the punishment in the inner court in the Lin family. It became the laughing stock in Xue Lan's eyes.

"Girl!" Zijuan still didn't give up, kowtowed to Daiyu hastily, and said in tears.

"Didn't you hear what Xue Lan said?" Daiyu turned around and was already touching Xuxu's small head. To turn over, Xu Xu had to be hugged and turned over. Xu Xu shook his little head, shook the hair on his head, and continued to sleep in Daiyu's arms.

"Girl, I..." Zijuan wanted to say something else.But Daiyu completely closed her eyes this time, as if she didn't want to hear Zijuan's words at all.

"Zicuckoo, I know that you are from the Jia family, and you have to respect the master of the Jia family, but I also know that the girl asked you the first day you came, whether you are from the Jia family or the Lin family, you yourself You should remember what you said. If you don’t want to be punished today, you can do it. One takes your deed of sale and sends it back to Jia’s mansion. People from my Lin family dare not use Jia’s maids. I went back to the old lady together, my small household in the Lin family can't afford people from the Rongguo Mansion, and the other one, you should think carefully about what you did wrong, if you understand it, then tell me what you did wrong It’s time, and then come to me to receive the punishment on your own. Let’s talk about it later.” Xue Lan simply took out a contract from her waist and patted it on the table, looking at Zijuan and said.

"Ah!!!" Zijuan was stunned for a moment. She heard Daiyu say that she wanted to control Jiamu and ask her to sell her body, but she never saw Daiyu mention it to Jiamu. She thought Daiyu forgot. It's about this matter, or she just said it casually, but she didn't expect that Daiyu had already taken her lifeline into her own hands.

"Zijuan, go back to your room and think about it carefully, and come to me when you understand!" Xue Lan picked up the deed of sale and slapped it in front of Zijuan, then picked up the needle and thread beside her and stopped talking up.

Zijuan looked at the body deed in front of her, her hands were already trembling, the piece of paper seemed to weigh a thousand catties, Zijuan picked up the piece of paper tremblingly, it was really her own body deed , even the great seal of the Jia family is clearly stamped, but the master on it has changed from the Jia family to the Lin family, and there is a body deed of 300 taels of silver on it. I bought it myself.

"Girl, girl!" Zicuckoo said tremblingly.

But Daiyu still didn't seem to have heard a glance, but in the end, Nanny Wang couldn't bear it, and motioned to Xuezhu, Xuezhu glanced at Daiyu, but didn't dare to move, Nanny Wang had no choice but to look for help With snow geese.

"Sister Zijuan, get up!" Xueyan helplessly stepped forward to help Zijuan, and Zijuan followed Xueyan to stand up in a daze, and then returned to her room with Xueyan's support.

"Miss, do you think this is an appropriate treatment?" Xue Lan respectfully walked to Daiyu's bed and asked in a low voice.

"If the girl did something wrong, you will naturally have to deal with it. You did a good job today." Daiyu slowly opened her eyes and said.

"Yes!" Xue Lan still respectfully said.

"Okay, everyone is tired today, let's have a good rest, and I have to go home tomorrow to have a look, everyone should leave!" Daiyu said with a wave of her hand.

"Yes!" Sixue and Wang Momo hurriedly agreed, and everyone left.

After a while, the girl on duty and the little girl prepared water for Daiyu to wash up. After Daiyu took a bath behind the screen, she changed her clothes, picked up a book and continued to lie on the bed and read at an angle. Wait until the hair is dry before going to bed. Tonight, the person on duty is Xuezhu. Xuezhu picked up the lotus lamp and held it to Daiyu's side. Daiyu nodded her head lightly but didn't say anything. .

Xuezhu warmed Daiyu's evening tea in the stove, looked at the doors and windows again, then put down the curtains, and waited for the lady on duty to come, and then she was about to rest.

"Has Miss Lin ever slept?" A woman's voice came from outside.

"I haven't slept yet, can this mother come in and sit down?" Xue Zhu quickly stood up and put down the embroidery work in her hand, stretched out her hand and opened the door curtain to invite the mother who was watching the night to come in.

"Hello, Mom!" Daiyu quickly put down the book and sat up.

"Xue Zhu poured this mother a cup of hot tea. Although it's not too cold, it's getting cold sooner or later. Let's have a cup of warm tea to drive away the cold." Daiyu said with a smile.

"Thank you Miss Lin." The mother who watched the night said with a smile.

Xuezhu poured a cup of hot tea for the mother, and the mother held it in her hands and sat on the twig, her eyes were rovingly looking at the things in Daiyu's room.

"Ms. Lin is still reading at this late hour?" Mom first saw the book on Daiyu's bed, and then saw the lotus lantern beside Daiyu.

"I just took a bath and my hair wasn't too dry, so I just idled and looked at it for a while, and then went to sleep when my hair was dry." Daiyu said with a smile.

The mother nodded and said: "Don't watch it too late at night, the girl is weak, and the daughter of Jia's family is not a champion, so she should rest earlier." The mother said with a smile.

"That's right!" Daiyu replied hastily. "It's just a blind man who knows a few words and shouldn't open his eyes!" Daiyu said with a smile.

"The girl is too modest. Even the old lady said that Miss Lin's knowledge is good, which is not comparable to our girls." The mother said with a smile.

Daiyu's heart trembled slightly. It seemed that the Jia family really had no secrets. A mother who watched the night knew what Jia's mother said. It seemed that the gossip in Jia's house was spreading quickly.

"That's the old lady's compliment, but I can't afford it." Daiyu said with a smile.

"Miss, let's go to bed early, but I should go to watch the night too." After drinking tea, my mother stood up and said.

"If mom is tired, just come to me to have a rest and have a cup of tea!" Daiyu said with a smile.

"Thank you so much, girl!" Mom smiled and left Daiyu's room with Xuezhu sending her off.
