In the garden, after Jia Mu and other elders went to take a nap, the sisters also let go and went to play together.

They are all teenage girls who don’t like taking naps in the first place.

When they had free time, everyone came to the Lotus Root Champs.

The Lotus Root Pavilion is a waterside pavilion in Liao Fengxuan where Xichun lives. It is built along the Qinfang River. This is Xichun's favorite leisure place, and the little girl has organized a simple studio here.

It happened that today when Jia's mother took Grandma Liu to visit the garden, Grandma Liu said that the Grand View Garden was as beautiful as the New Year pictures they bought and pasted up during the Chinese New Year. She also laughed and said that if she could draw what she saw, she could take it back to show off to the folks in the countryside. Even better.

It was originally a joke, but in order to show that her granddaughters were knowledgeable in all arts, Jia Mu asked Xichun to draw a landscape painting of the Grand View Garden, and also set some requirements.

This is embarrassing for Xichun. I was embarrassed to refuse in front of the "guests", so I had no choice but to agree.

No, a group of sisters and sisters-in-law knew that she was in trouble and came to help her on the spot.

Some taught her how to draw figures, some taught her how to paint landscapes, some taught her how to make reasonable layouts...

In the end, everyone praised Baochai as the best at this. I am willing to let Baochai teach Xichun how to prepare for this important event. Because Baochai said that when the Grand View Garden was first built, the craftsmen must have had a sketch in their hands. If Xichun could get it, it would definitely be beneficial to the rational layout of the entire scroll.

Just when everyone wanted Jia Baoyu to ask for help, they discovered that Jia Baoyu had not been here for some time.

"Second Master Bao didn't even follow the girls in. He looked like he had something to do and went outside."

When everyone heard this, they felt as if something was wrong in their hearts. Thoughts. Thinking that Jia Baoyu used to like to join in such fun, but he didn't come today, it was probably because of Daiyu. Daiyu still didn't pay much attention to Jia Baoyu, although after Jia Baoyu's provocation last time, Daiyu no longer avoided him.

No one dared to say what they were thinking, because they knew Daiyu would probably leave too.

Then Tanchun said with a smile: "It's really strange. We didn't notice that Brother Bao didn't come in. By the way, Brother Lian didn't say he would come to accompany us last night. No, he went shopping with Sister Lin. Is it from the garden? It’s not the right time, why hasn’t he come yet?”

As soon as Tan Chun said this, no matter whether he heard Daiyu invite Jia Lian to visit the garden last night or not, Everyone smiled.

Daiyu glanced at these people and said nothing., walked to the side to enjoy the flowers.

Seeing that Daiyu was rarely embarrassed by Tanchun's teasing, everyone was secretly surprised, but they did not dare to pursue her and turned to talk to Jia Lian.

"Well, originally I thought the autumn scenery was the best today and wanted to go boating. But I was too embarrassed to trouble Sister-in-law Lian. It would be great if Brother Lian was here. He would take us with us and it would be convenient. , it’s fun to play.”

Tanchun’s words resonated with all the sisters, and they all understood what Tanchun meant. They all said that the eldest brother was their father and could fully shoulder the responsibility based on Jia Lian's virtues. However, Jia Lian gave them a very cordial feeling. Most importantly, he was unusually tolerant and inclusive towards the sisters.

It can be said that when Jia Lian is around, everyone can talk and laugh freely without restraint. This point is far from possible even in front of Jia Mu.

But Li Wan listened to Tanchun’s words and scolded her for being heartless and asked her if she really wanted to row a boat. She couldn’t arrange it for them, or did she say that those awning boats could only be operated by Sister Feng? If you want to move, your sister-in-law is not qualified to do it, right?

This made Tanchun, who knew he had said the wrong thing, quickly step forward to act coquettishly to please him. During the laughter, the woman beside Li Wan laughed outside the pavilion and said: "The girls want to find Second Master Lian, but Second Master Lian has already entered the garden. When we came over just now, we happened to meet Second Master Lian, and he asked After telling the old lady, they learned that the old lady had not gotten up from her nap, so she left. The slaves looked at the direction he was going, and they saw that he was heading towards Mount Cui.

If the girls want to find him, All we need to do is send someone to the Cuicui Temple to ask."

"Okay, I know it. Brother Lian will never break his promise again, let alone Sister Lin. He must be Let’s go up the mountain to make tea and discuss Taoism with Miaoyu.”

“Why don’t we go too.”

Everyone in the Jia family knows that Jia Lian once served as a disciple of Cui’an. Miaoyu is a Taoist master, and everyone knows that Miaoyu is an elegant person. His proficiency and exquisiteness in tea ceremony are beyond the reach of people in the Jia family. Therefore, Tanchun "boils tea to discuss Taoism".

It just so happened that everyone felt that it was useless to be trapped here and wanted to find Jia Lian. Still Yingchun said: "Miaoyu doesn't like making noise the most. We just went to make trouble with her before, and now we are leaving in droves. It's inevitable that she won't be happy. According to me, just send someone to take a look."

"I'll go."

"I'll go!"

As soon as Yingchun finished speaking, Tanchun and Shi Xiangyun, who were the most excited, recommended themselves at the same time.

Baochai then smiled and said, "Look, you two are in a hurry, so you can go together."

Tanchun and Xiangyun looked at each other and smiled, and sure enough, Say goodbye to everyone and come out.

　Let's talk about Jia Baoyu, he was still young, and being able to say those words that day to make Daiyu stop avoiding him was the limit of his courage and emotional intelligence. Under the current circumstances, he didn't know how to return to the happy days when brothers and sisters were together, chatting and laughing without any worries.

At noon, there was a huge gap between the joy of accompanying Jia Mu, Grandma Liu and others to the garden, and the inner loss. Only then did he sadly break away from the sight of his sisters and walk outside the Grand View Garden.

Going to the second door, I asked my young man if Mingyan could come back. He gave Mingyan a task, asking him to go to the countryside where Grandma Liu lived to find the fairy who drew firewood under the snow...

When he learned that Mingyan had not come back, he went to the garden out of boredom. Walk.

I hesitated for a moment at the fork in the road, but chose to go in the direction of Yihongyuan instead of Liao Fengxuan. At least, the maids in his courtyard would not look down upon him and were ready to go back to relieve their unhappy mood.

Unexpectedly, when he returned to Yihong Courtyard, he saw that the whole courtyard was quiet and quiet. Jia Baoyu shook his head and sighed, knowing that the maids had probably followed the masters and went to play everywhere.

Jia Baoyu slowly entered the room and was soon stunned. Through the window, he could hear snoring coming one after another from his bedroom. As he got closer, it became more and more like thunder.

He pushed open the glass folding door in a daze and went in. He only smelled the stench of wine. When he looked around the room, he saw that he was lying on his back with his arms and legs dancing in his gorgeously decorated and clean bed. An old woman, judging from her clothes and figure, she was probably that countrywoman, Grandma Liu.

Jia Baoyu was stunned and stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.

After an unknown amount of time, his chubby fair face suddenly turned green and red. Glancing at Grandma Liu who was covered in "dirty smell" with disgust, he quickly ran out the door, shouting as he ran: "Here, there are people! Where are all the dead? Come quickly!! "

Jia Baoyu's thunderous voice startled all the lazy people in Yihong Courtyard, including Tanchun and Xiangyun who were passing by Yihong Courtyard.

The two of them walked in suspiciously and saw Yihongyuan getting completely irritable. Brother Bao Er, who has always been gentle and elegant, was standing on the eaves of the main room, looking jumping around, and constantly urging and scolding the maids and wives in the courtyard.

An old woman was detained by two servants, and she kowtowed to Jia Baoyu to beg for mercy. Jia Baoyu ignored her, just scolded the women, and said something like asking people to move everything out of the house and burn it.

"Second brother, what's going on?"

Seeing Tan Chun and Xiang Yun coming over, Jia Baoyu was furious.He seemed to be forced to restrain himself a little, but he still couldn't get rid of his anger, so he glanced at Grandma Liu and said nothing.

Tanchun rarely saw Jia Baoyu so angry, so he quickly asked his mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law said bitterly: "This crazy woman didn't know how to find a coffin to lie down on when she was drunk, but she actually ran into our second master's room..."

After saying that, the mother-in-law glared at Grandma Liu. But Grandma Liu, who knew she had gotten into a big trouble, could only explain in a hurry that she was "drunk" and "I didn't know it was the master's house".

Tanchun and Xiangyun finally understood and glanced at Grandma Liu who was smelling of alcohol. After the two looked at each other, Tanchun stepped forward and helped Grandma Liu up from the ground.

Shi Xiangyun said: "Brother Bao, why should you be angry about this? The old lady and Sister Feng were causing trouble at noon. I don't know how much wine they drank into her. You also know this. She must be drunk. She fell asleep when she saw a place, not knowing that it was your house."

Tan Chun also advised: "Exactly, the so-called ignorant person is not guilty, she is so old, There is no need for the second brother to be angry with her."

While Tanchun was talking, he saw that Grandma Liu was very frightened, so he comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Grandma, it's nothing. It's just that you drank wine, why didn't you call someone? Follow me and come here by yourself?"

Grandma Liu said with regret: "Girl, you don't have to say nice things for me. It's all my fault that I was confused. I ate too much yellow soup and wandered around. I accidentally bumped into my brother. , I deserve to die..."

Seeing Grandma Liu kneeling down for Jia Baoyu again, Tanchun could only support her and smooth things over: "This is all the fault of the maids and women, old lady. It was clearly stated before that she had to drink wine when she was old, so she must serve her well. It must be that they were lazy and did not look at their grandma.

The second brother did not say that because of her old age For the sake of being confused, and for the sake of my wife and Sister Feng, I should forgive him."

Although he is a relative who can only carry eight poles, in the end he is only working for the word "king". Those who come are considered guests, so they should naturally be tolerant to the guests. How can they get angry and make it difficult for the guests to deal with themselves.

Although Jia Baoyu also understood that Grandma Liu probably made an unintentional mistake, whenever he thought about the bed he slept on every day, being slept by such a dirty woman, he felt uncomfortable all over and felt like dying. .

He loved his innocent daughter the most in his life, saying that before his daughter got married, she was made of flesh and blood, a priceless jewel. Once you follow a man, you don't know why but you will develop many problems. Although you are still a pearl, it has lost its luster and is a dead pearl.

He is older, forget it, he has dead eyes!

This shows that Jia Baoyu has great malice towards the old woman.

　And this Grandma Liu is not only an old woman, but also a country girl with a dirty smell! Although Grandma Liu took a shower and changed into clean clothes before entering the city yesterday, in Jia Baoyu's eyes, she was dirty and smelly.

When Jia Baoyu thought of the thunderous snoring he heard just after entering the house, and the stench that filled the house, Jia Baoyu couldn't get rid of his evil thoughts.

After all, he didn’t insult an old woman from outside. He just scolded the maids and women who were still dawdling: “Why are you still standing there? Why haven’t you taken out all the things and thrown them away! No, Burn them all, burn them all to ashes!"

When Grandma Liu heard this, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

Shi Xiangyun was outspoken and felt that Jia Baoyu had gone too far, so he said: "Second brother, why are you like this! When you talk about Miaoyu, you all say that she is unreasonable. In my opinion, you are more She's not much better.

If you don't like it being soiled by others, just ask the maids to take it out and clean it up later, or just give it to a servant if you don't need it.

If you are like this, we will not dare to get close to you in the future, otherwise if you get dirty, we will not be scolded to death by you.

Look at the third sister, before When we went to the third sister's house, Ban'er was naughty and even rolled around on the third sister's couch. The third sister didn't say anything and even gave Ban'er a gift!"

The more Shi Xiangyun talked, the more he felt that Jia Baoyu had gone too far. Compared with Tanchun's open-mindedness and tolerance, it was a huge difference.

Only then did Grandma Liu realize that the elegant and tidy room she had visited in the morning belonged to the golden lady in front of her, and she quickly bowed down to Tanchun to apologize.

Tan Chun said with a smile: "It's okay grandma, Ban'er is a child, it doesn't matter."

Although Jia Baoyu was kind to his sisters, he didn't blush easily. After all, it is also the nature of a child. Being belittled by Shi Xiangyun in person, he couldn't keep it off his face and snorted coldly: "Just don't get close to me. Girl, go play somewhere else. I won't accompany you anymore." He tore off the bed sheet and other items and threw them on the ground, and ordered the restless maids in the room to move out all the decorations and throw them away...

On the corridor, the detective who heard the movement inside Chun and others smiled helplessly, knowing that Jia Baoyu's stubborn temper was rising.

At this time, Xiren came back and hurriedly explained the matter to her.

Xiren also frowned, glanced at Grandma Liu, and then said to Tanchun and the others: "Girls, don't worry, I'll go and persuade him. Girls, take Grandma Liu with you. You are here. , it’s not easy for him to lose face.”

Xiren was known as a virtuous person in the Jia family, and her words were quite successful.Forget it, just feel more at ease.

Everyone knows that Jia Baoyu is the top of Jia Mu's heart. If she knew that Jia Baoyu had been so wronged and Jia Mu was angry, Grandma Liu would be unable to do things by herself. Those serving maids and women, I'm just afraid that I'm going to suffer a lot.

So Tanchun told the maids and women on the porch, "You are not allowed to tell anyone else about this matter. It will be in your interest to let the old lady know."

The mothers-in-law also knew the pros and cons and hurriedly responded. They were also very grateful to Tanchun and others. If they had not been here today, Jia Mu would definitely know about it. At that time, they, the people who guard the house, will definitely shed a layer of skin.
