dream of red mansion

Page 455

Jia Rong, who had been talking vigorously with a young man in the hall, saw Jia Qing coming in, stood up quickly, and called out, "Second Uncle."

Looking at Jia Rong who was still cowering in front of him, Jia Qing felt for the first time that he still had something to use.

Having met the elders in the hall who are older than him, he also received a lot of congratulations, and even some compliments.

Jia Qing just smiled at each other and didn't show too much, just talked with everyone in the front hall until the banquet in the hall was fully arranged.So Jia Qingxiang invited everyone to the table.

Just after drinking the first two glasses of wine, You Shi also sent word that Jia Mu had arrived, so Jia Qing stood up and said:

"Thank you elders and brothers for coming here. Originally, I was supposed to accompany everyone to drink straight all night, but today the ancestors also came, so I have to go to serve. Forgive me for not greeting well.

After I drank this cup, let Rong'er accompany me instead. "

Jia Qing said, drank the wine in the glass, gave Jia Rong a few more instructions, and then said his farewell, as if he walked out of the hall helplessly.

......

"Old Ancestor, thank you for making a trip at such an early night, my grandson feels really sorry..."

In the back hall, as expected, Mother Jia and all the sisters in Jia's house had arrived. Jia Qing walked quickly to the main hall to greet Mother Jia.

Mother Jia nodded and said with a smile, "I haven't seen your aunt yet, but you interrupted your elder sister Bao's birthday today. If I were sure, I wouldn't come. Now that your aunt doesn't care about you, she came over to congratulate you. What should you say?"

Jia Qing immediately said: "Old Ancestor, you still have the nerve to say such a thing?"

"So what do you say?" Mother Jia asked.

Jia Qingdao: "Because of the old ancestors, they asked my sister-in-law and the others to come back to prepare a celebration banquet for nothing, and cost me a lot of money!

Originally, I thought about it on the way back. Isn't my aunt's house celebrating Sister Bao's birthday today?Good wine, good food, and a good theater troupe are all ready-made, so I am going to go back home and change my clothes. There.

In this way, everything is ready-made, and I don't need to pay half a cent, but I can also receive a large gift...

It was only when I got to the mansion that I realized that all of this had become a fantasy. My sister-in-law and the others had already prepared everything... I really don't know how to be frugal!

If it weren't for Qin's saying that this is your ancestor's order, the grandson would not dare to disobey, and would have returned all the things as soon as he was sure, and maybe he could get back some money.Then I flew to my aunt's house to make up for the loss..."

What Jia Qing said was serious and serious, and everyone in the hall couldn't stop laughing, and all laughed at Jia Qing for being so thick-skinned.

After a while of laughing, Jia Qing saluted Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing in turn, and met the sisters, Li Wan, and Wang Xifeng.

Because there was no theater troupe arranged for the evening, the main hall was just a few small round tables arranged in a random pattern. The sisters were divided into two tables, one for Youshi and Wang Xifeng, one for Mrs. Xing Wang, one for Jia Mu and Aunt Xue. a table.

The seat reserved for Jia Qing by Jia Mu and others was at Jia Mu's table, because Jia Qing was the protagonist tonight!

"Come on, old ancestor, if I sit by your side, you are not afraid of ruining my life? I'm still comfortable sitting here!"

After finishing speaking, Jia Qing took the stool and involuntarily squeezed between the two sisters Tanchun and Xichun.

Jia Mu and others had to let him go.

Who knows, it's not peaceful here either.

As soon as Jia Qing sat down, Lin Daiyu said: "Second brother, because time is too tight, I have discussed with the second and third younger sisters. I will write down the congratulatory gift for now, and I will give it to you later. Do you think it is okay?"

Jia Qing was very generous and said bluntly: "Okay, no problem, just remember to make it right... Come, I'll toast you too..."

"Hold on."

"What else?"

"Did you forget something?"

"what?"

Daiyu jokingly said: "Today you left early in the morning in a hurry, not to mention disturbing Sister Bao's birthday, and you weren't there when we gave Sister Bao a present..."

Jia Qing suddenly understood, and said in surprise: "Sister Lin, you...? Just now so many of you said that you owe me a gift, and I agreed without hesitation at all. Now you have the nerve to rush me ?”

Daiyu said: "That's different, Sister Bao's birthday was agreed early in the morning, and it happened after noon, how can you compare?

If you're not prepared, forget it. "

Jia Qing's teeth itch with hatred, Daiyu is obviously looking for faults!And there are suspicions of provoking the good relationship between him and Baochai...

When it comes to gifts for Baochai's birthday, he is naturally prepared.It's just that I forgot to give it when I left at noon, and then rushed into the palace to thank you, so I put the things in the house.

It's okay to go back and get it now, but after being told by Daiyu, if his gift has nothing special, it will look boring.Boredom is what Jia Qing hates the most.

On the next table, Baochai silently watched Jia Qing scratching his ears and thinking.Don't get me wrong, it's not that she has a crush on Jia Qing, Xue Baochai just thinks that Jia Qing's status is becoming more and more valuable now, a first-class general is already a first-class general, but he doesn't use his grace at all.

In the face of a sister who makes things difficult at random, she can take it seriously. I don't know what kind of state of mind can make such a person come out.

While Xue Baochai was thinking, suddenly Jia Qing turned his head to her and said in a discussing tone:

"How about I give my sister a younger sister?"

"what?"

Not to mention that Xue Baochai didn't understand what Jia Qing meant, everyone at the table looked at Jia Qing suspiciously, but Daiyu seemed to realize something, and immediately stared at Jia Qing as a threat.

It's just that Jia Qing turned his head to look at Baochai at this time, and didn't notice her expression at all.

"Sister Bao is like this. I have a younger sister who is not obedient at all and always makes trouble for me. But she is the most well-behaved, lovable, and I am reluctant to teach her... .Therefore, I have nothing to do with her!

I often hear that Sister Bao is the most obedient and sensible daughter of my aunt, she is my aunt's caring little padded jacket, and she also loves and loves my aunt.How about this, I will transfer my younger sister to my elder sister, so that my elder sister can teach her well. In fact, she doesn’t need to be taught. My beloved sister...

In this way, sister Bao, you don't have to do anything, you just need to wait for a while, and you can get the most beloved sister... What do you think of this gift? "

Jia Qing's voice was seductive.

It's just that everyone's reaction is different.As early as when Jia Qing said the first few words, everyone guessed who the "disobedient sister" he said was. Several of them wanted to laugh but held back, so they blushed slightly.

Shi Xiangyun held back for a long while, but couldn't hold back any of it, and burst out laughing.Then, everyone seemed to have opened the valve, although they didn't laugh out loud, they all laughed out loud.

Xue Baochai looked at Lin Daiyu who had turned black, and was also amused.Thinking about it again, Daiyu usually likes to pick her thorns, and she deliberately took advantage of this to make fun of her, so she smiled and said: "Okay, how can I not accept such a good gift. However, Brother Qing still has to give it to me first." Let's see if your sister is as lovable as you said..."

"Hahaha......"

Shi Xiangyun couldn't bear Xue Baochai's joke anymore, and burst out laughing.It attracted the attention of the tables above.

Jia Mu said: "What are you sisters talking about, smiling so happily?"

Shi Xiangyun paused for a moment, and replied: "Old Ancestor, it's nothing, it's the second elder brother making up for Sister Bao's birthday gift, it's so interesting, we laughed!"

It's really interesting.There are those who know how to send maids and servants, but never know that they can still send sisters...

After hearing this, Mother Jia didn't ask any more questions, but said to Aunt Xue: "These children always have fun, and they can laugh like this with a gift."
