Chapter 546: Gift of Gold Bracelet
Back home, I met Sister Feng in the courtyard.
Sister Feng was holding a little eldest sister's coat in her hand. She stood on the east corridor and looked at Jia Lian, then at Qingwen who was running behind him, and then she smiled and said : "Have you coaxed your sister Lin?"
Jia Lian also knew in her heart that some of the words she said in Daiyu's house might not be very useful to Sister Feng, so she wanted to step forward. Coax her too.
Based on the current relationship between him and Sister Feng, which has experienced so many collisions, frictions and touches, it can be said that it is no exaggeration to describe it as Bi Jinjian.
Therefore, as long as it does not threaten Sister Feng’s fundamental interests, such as the status of a wife, the eldest son, etc., she will not care about it.
As a woman, if you have been wronged and don’t want to leave you, all the fussing with you is just to coax a man.
Who knew that as soon as Jia Lian moved his steps, Sister Feng could see what Jia Lian was thinking. She waved her hand quickly: "Goodbye, there are guests at home. They are all here to congratulate you. You go first." Come with me, I will change your clothes and come here."
After saying that, Sister Feng walked into the east chamber.
This choking and resolute attitude that did not give him a chance to speak made Jia Lian stiff. So much so that Qingwen beside him couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile.
Jia Lian turned around and looked at her with a neither salty nor indifferent look, and then she shut her mouth.
Stepping into the main room, I saw that the west room was full of guests.
Sisters Sanchun and Baochai Xiangyun came over. When they saw Jia Lian coming in, they all came over to greet him. The first words they spoke were congratulations.
Then Tanchun complained: "It was hard to tell in Sister Lin's room just now, but now I have to distinguish between you and brother Lian."
Tanchun Holding Jia Lian's arm, he helped Jia Lian onto the kang and asked him to sit down, while softly complaining.
"You and Sister Lin have been engaged for half a year. Why did you hide such a big happy event from us?
" Just hide it from us. We are also 'outsiders' anyway. It's nothing, but the second sister is your real sister. You want to marry her a sister-in-law. She should know, right? Otherwise, if you don't know the family in person, if there is a collision, wouldn't it be like a flood has washed away the Dragon King? Temple?"
Because Tanchun said it jokingly and added an accent to the words "outsider", the sisters and the maids nearby couldn't help laughing.
Yingchun glared at her angrily, trying to pull her ears to tell her to stop talking, but Tanchun easily dodged it..
Jia Lian has always liked this group of bright, beautiful and well-educated sisters at home, and he feels happy when he sees them laughing and playing in front of them.
Therefore, Jia Lian understood Jia Baoyu's behavior of living and living in Rouwen Township.
As for Tanchun, his cousin, he did not feel dissatisfied with the teasing. Instead, he felt that this was a sign of the little girl getting close to him. He could see that even though he was usually very kind to the Sanchun sisters, he would often bring them small gifts during festivals or when he returned from an outing.
But whether it is welcoming the spring or appreciating the spring, while respecting and loving him, there is also some respect for him.
Only Tanchun, a little girl, dared to make some light jokes with him occasionally. Jia Lian even knew that as long as he showed slight displeasure about this, Tanchun would not do so again in the future.
"But I didn’t hide it from you intentionally. It’s just that Uncle Lin has recently died, and the old lady thinks that your sister Lin is still young, so she is not in a hurry to publicize this matter in a big way. After two years, you Lin My sister is out of her filial piety period, and it will not be too late to discuss the marriage then.
But you, third girl, since you say you are an 'outsider', why do I see that you are the most talkative here? You, Sister Yingchun, she You didn’t say anything yourself, but you finished what you said. When people who didn’t know saw it, they thought you were a relative and your sister Yingchun was a cousin.”
Seeing Jia Lian, he in turn made fun of her. Tanchun, the sisters smiled even more, which made Tanchun a little embarrassed.
Just as he was about to speak, Xichun quietly said to Yingchun: "Second sister, if I heard you right, second brother said that third sister talks too much, right? Look, wait for me to talk to her. How annoying, she still doesn’t admit it..."
Obviously, the two little sisters have some personal grudges. Although Xichun did not necessarily deliberately add insult to injury, the effect achieved was the best.
Tanchun’s face suddenly turned red, and she waited for Xichun with her sister’s majestic eyes.
Haru made a face.
Seeing this, Tanchun couldn't help but laugh.
Jia Lian is a bit older than them and has not been as close to them as Jia Baoyu since he was a child.
In the past few years, Jia Lian has made great achievements outside, and even cares about his sisters at home several times more than in previous years.
This made the sisters in the family want to get close to Jia Lian, but they were also a little timid.
And because of her biological mother, Aunt Zhao, she became sensible early in her childhood and was more self-reliant and self-reliant than others.
She was the first to see that Jia Lian was not a person who was intimidating and self-respecting. When facing his family, his personality was still as easy-going as before, so she dared to talk and joke with Jia Lian tentatively.
Now, although Jia Lian pushed her into the car instead, seemingly dissatisfied with her talkativeness, but because Jia Lian smiled at her and said it, she could naturally see that Jia Lian had no displeasure in her heart. He was very happy.
Every woman in the world knows that when a woman is alive, a capable brother is a lifelong source of support and confidence.
Especially after getting married, with such an elder brother from your mother’s family around, others will not dare to bully you. Therefore, it is very foolish to keep such a brother by your side without knowing how to get close to him.
Tanchun was embarrassed to speak, so he walked aside to take care of Xichun.
Jia Lian glanced at it and saw that Baochai was still so elegant and quiet, sitting alone and looking at everyone with a smile. Only after meeting his gaze, she looked away shyly.
Then Jia Lianfang looked at Xiangyun, who was wearing a long red dress.
In Jia Lian’s impression, Xiangyun is the most lively and talkative girl.
In this way, at this time, she was sitting so quietly aside. Although her expression was the same, she also seemed a little out of place.
Recalling what Zicuckoo said before, Jia Lian thought about it, called Xiang Ling, who was standing next to her after serving tea, and gave an instruction.
Being so mysterious, he naturally aroused everyone's doubts, and they were embarrassed to ask questions.
They didn’t ask, but Jia Lian stood up on his own initiative and said to Xiangyun: “I was in Sister Lin’s room just now. Thank you very much for Sister Xiangyun’s speaking up.”
As the elder brother, Jia Lian was so solemn that Xiangyun was a little overwhelmed.
She quickly stood up and waved her hands: "No, it's nothing... As long as the second brother doesn't blame me for talking too much like the old ladies and others, causing today's trouble..."
< br /> Xiangyun had no idea that Jia Lian would make a special trip to thank her for such a trivial matter.
Moreover, Jia Lian's words also aroused the grievance in her heart, so her face was a little depressed and her tone was a little low, but she couldn't hold back her emotions.
Seeing her appearance, Jia Lian made some guesses and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong, but the old lady scolded you?"
Xiangyun turned his head and said nothing.
If she doesn’t say it, someone will say it for her.
"The old lady didn't scold Sister Yun, but her aunt scolded her. Just now in the old lady's room..."
Tanchun stood up at the right time and wanted to take action. I don’t know Jia LianExplain the situation clearly.
Seeing this, Xiangyun quickly shook his head at her, signaling her not to say more. She didn't want to bring her family matters to the Jia family.
Moreover, although the old lady did not blame her on her lips, she definitely blamed her in her heart. She was young, but she knew in her heart that every year she came to celebrate the old lady's birthday, the old lady would basically stay and play with her for a few days before sending her back.
But just now in Rongqing Hall, the aunts talked about the arrangement of going back after dinner, but Jia Mu did not make a special trip to stay with her. Compared to how her aunt often scolded her, this was what made her most sad.
Seeing that Xiangyun didn’t want to say anything, Jia Lian just smiled softly.
At this time, Xiangling took out the things from the inner room, and Jia Lian said to Xiangyun: "Because Baoyu is stubborn and has caused sister Yun to be wronged, Brother Yu deeply apologizes.
This was your sister Feng before. When making a new bracelet, if my sister doesn't dislike the remaining one, I can accept it as a token of appreciation for my brother."
With that said, Jia Lian took the jade box from Xiang Ling's hand. Pass it to Xiangyun.
"This, how can I accept this..."
Xiangyun immediately refused. Jia Lian had already expected it and gave Qingwen a look who was eating rice next to him. Qingwen understood and took the initiative to take out the shining golden bracelet from the box. While forcing Xiangyun to put it on, she said with a smile: "Miss Yun , just keep it. Ask the three girls, the four girls, and even Miss Bao, which one of them has not received a small gift from our second master?
Now, it is Miss Yun who has suffered the most. , so no matter what, you have to accept this bracelet."
Sanchun and others were a little envious at first, but when they heard Qingwen say this, they were a little embarrassed, so they quickly asked Xiangyun to Take it.
When Xiangyun saw that it was a gold bracelet, he didn’t dare to accept it, and he couldn’t disobey it. Suddenly I noticed that the bracelet was very big and heavy, so I quickly said: "Let's forget it. The bracelet is too big and I can't wear it. It will be bad if I throw it away later..."
Take it off and give it back to Jia Lian.
Because what Xiangyun said was right, everyone also discovered that the bracelet did not fit. On the contrary, Xiangyun is only eleven years old, and the bracelet Sister Feng made for herself must be too big for her to wear.
Jia Lian smiled as he expected: "This is because of my brother's negligence. I would also like to trouble Sister Yun to find a trustworthy mother after she goes back and let her take it out to help her melt the recast." It’ll take a while.”
After speaking, Jia Lian smiled and turned toHe sat back on the kang, not giving Xiang Yun a chance to speak.
In this way, Xiangyun really didn't know how to refuse, so he could only bow to Jia Lian to thank Jia Lian in the eyes of everyone's encouragement, and then sat down obediently holding the jade box.
After saying a few more words, he felt that it was getting late and Jia Mu’s side was going to have another banquet, so Tanchun and others left.
Before leaving, Baochai glanced at Jia Lian with respect in his eyes.
Baochai has been in Jia Mansion for two years. Because of his good character, he is deeply close to and respected by Xiangyun.
Therefore, Baochai knew a little about Xiangyun’s family affairs, and knew that Xiangyun was the daughter of a noble family, but behind the scenes there were many difficulties.
She hadn't realized it just now, but after sitting down and thinking about it, she suddenly realized how properly and carefully Jia Lian had done things in the past. Today, I made a special trip to express my gratitude to Xiangyun by giving me a gift. How could I give something that is obviously not suitable for Xiangyun due to negligence?
I was afraid that Jia Lian also knew something about the Shi family, so he gave the gold as a gift. He was also afraid that Xiangyun would not dare to sell it or discard it because it was a gift from an elder, so he specially gave him an oversized bracelet. .
Since Xiangyun is not suitable for wear, it is logical to sell it. Even if Xiangyun listened to Jia Lian's suggestion and had someone melt it out and recast it, he would naturally be able to use the excess as cash.
Because the bracelet is already thick enough, if you want to reduce it, you can only reduce the amount, otherwise it will be too bloated and not like a bracelet.
Baochai didn’t know if she was overthinking it, because if it was really as she thought, then Jia Lian’s carefulness and his way of dealing with people would have really reached a level that even she could not reach. The height almost means moisturizing things silently.
Should such a man really exist in the world? Baochai shook his head and expressed doubt.
As soon as the sisters left, Sister Feng came back.
Just from this small detail, Jia Lian knew Sister Feng’s little thoughts, so he hugged her over and sat on his lap, smiling and saying: “We have already agreed on the matter of Girl Lin. Why are you jealous again?"
"Who is not jealous?!"
How could Sister Feng admit it? She even got a little angry and tapped Jia Lian's forehead, scolding Said: "You heartless person, if I were jealous, I would have turned upside down with you when you insulted the Xiao Qin family.
Who would have thought that I would wholeheartedly care about you? , regardless of dignity, I helped you call Rong's daughter-in-law, but you didn't appreciate it at all, and you still said that to me..."
" As she said this, Sister Feng felt really aggrieved.
Jia Lian quickly stopped and hugged herAfter kissing her, her face changed from resentment to shyness, and then he put his arms around her slender waist, warming her whole body with his palms, and sighed: "Look at you, why are you crying as you talk?"
"Who is crying..."
"Of course I will remember all the benefits you have done to me. To be honest, if it weren't for my lady's magnanimity, how could I, Jia Lian, be where I am today? Pleasant days?
If I didn’t know that my wife is not a stingy person, how could I dare to agree to my uncle to take care of Sister Lin for the rest of my life, in the hope that Ehuang Nvying can enjoy the blessings of everyone? These are all earned. It depends on the lady's success."
Hearing Jia Lian say this, Sister Feng rolled her eyes and said, "You are so beautiful."
Even though she knew Jia Lian was trying to make her happy. , she still likes to hear such words. What else to do? Men are carefree, the world is like this, and she loves Jia Lian so much that she is reluctant to leave, so she can only leave Jia Lian in these matters.
What she fears the most is that Jia Lian is so carefree but at the same time dismissive of her concessions and tolerance, and even treats her without words. Then she is the ultimate failure.
Fortunately, Jia Lian is not such a person.
Therefore, seeing Jia Lian sincerely coaxing her, the unhappiness in her heart was almost gone.
Who would have thought that Jia Lian said again: "I have another idea in mind, let me tell you."
"What?"
" Within two years, I will definitely let you give birth to a big fat boy for me, so I may be cruel to you every night, so be mentally prepared."
< br />Once these words were said, not to mention Sister Feng, even Qingwen and Xiangling, who were hiding behind the door curtain, looked at each other and couldn't help but widen their eyes, feeling that they had heard something they shouldn't have heard again.
Qingwen burst out laughing, but she was afraid that Sister Feng would hear her, so she quickly covered her mouth.
I don’t know what I thought of, but suddenly my smile disappeared, my expression was full of resentment, and I glanced at Xiangling.
If Xiangling realized something, she took a step back with a guilty conscience.
