Chapter 51: Brother Bao, do you want to break jade again?

Over at Bisha Kitchen, Baoyu, Daiyu, and Sanchun were still joking.

In front of girls, Baoyu is like a peacock, always likes to show his most perfect side.

I saw him smiling at Daiyu and asking, "Sister Lin, you haven't picked up the characters yet, have you?"

Daiyu smiled and asked, "What? Are you trying to pick a word for me again?"

Shi Xiangyun heard that there was something in Daiyu's words, and immediately interjected: "What does Sister Lin mean by this? Could it be that Brother Ai has named someone else before?"

Daiyu said jokingly: "He wanted to change the name of my maid yesterday, but it's a pity that people don't care about his name."

Baoyu said anxiously: "That girl doesn't know what is good and what is good. The name I chose is excellent."

Xichun hurriedly asked: "What's your name?"

Daiyu: "My name is Qingwen."

Yingchun: “Where does it come from?”

Baoyu said with a proud look on his face: "From two poems by Lu Fangweng, people know that the flowers are suddenly warm, and the sound of magpies penetrates the trees to welcome the new sunshine. Sister Lin's maid is called Magpie. Wouldn't it be wonderful to change it to Qingwen?"

Shi Xiangyun was surprised and said: "That's not the name of the same sister's sister from the same poem."

Baoyu: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Daiyu immediately became angry when she heard this, "So you are attracted to Magpie and want her, right?"

Baoyu said anxiously: "How could I have such thoughts? How dare I remember your maid?"

Tanchun smiled and added, "Could it be that she is a maid in someone else's house, and you can't remember her?"

Baoyu hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed to the sisters, even saying he didn't dare.

Yingchun asked Daiyu: "Sister Lin, did your maid finally change her name?"

"Changed."

Baoyu: “What’s your name again?”

"Hibiscus."

Baoyu muttered: "Clear water brings out hibiscus, and nature removes the carvings. It must have come from these two lines of poetry. Although the name is a bit vulgar, it fits the girl's temperament very well. By the way, Sister Lin, this name was chosen by you.

?”

Daiyu: "My brother got it."

When Baoyu heard this, he suddenly became jealous. Yesterday, he wanted to help Magpie change his name, but the girl said that he was an outsider and did not accept the name he chose. Now she has accepted the name given by Brother Lin. Isn't that right?

He said he was not as good as Brother Lin, which made him very unhappy.

Yingchun asked curiously: "Sister Lin, didn't you say that your brother doesn't like reading poetry?"

Daiyu: "I rarely see him read poetry, but my brother is very knowledgeable and can remember most of the poems he has read. He just doesn't like to put too much effort into poetry."

Baoyu didn't like everyone always mentioning Lin Yun in front of him, so he changed the topic and said, "Sister Lin, I thought of the word "馃馃" yesterday and thought it was very suitable for you. What do you think?"

"Wrinkle."

Several little girls read out loud at the same time, and Tanchun asked Baoyu: "Where does this come from?"

Baoyu: "The Comprehensive Examination of Ancient and Modern Figures said: 'There is a stone named Dai in the West, which can replace the ink of a thrush.' I think the tip of Sister Lin's eyebrows are frowned, so wouldn't it be best to use frown as the character!"

Tan Chun smiled and said, "I'm afraid this is another fabrication of yours, right?"

Baoyu also laughed and said: "Except for the Four Books, there are too many fabrications, but I am the only one who made them up?"

After saying that, he asked Daiyu: "Sister Lin, what do you think of this word?"

Daiyu hesitated and said: "I'll go back and ask my brother for his opinion before making a decision."

Baoyu became angry when he heard this. His face turned red and he angrily asked Daiyu: "Why do I need to ask for his opinion when I choose the word for you?"

Daiyu was about to explain a few words, but when she saw Baoyu's aggressive expression, she felt annoyed, so she turned away and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.

Shi Xiangyun smiled and said: "I love my brother. Since I am choosing a word for Sister Lin, I should also ask her brother's opinion."

Baoyu blurted out: "That man is not sister Lin's brother."

Daiyu turned around and yelled angrily: "You're talking nonsense."

"I~"

When Baoyu saw that Sister Lin was really angry, he suddenly lost all his arrogance and did not dare to speak any more.

Tanchun quickly spoke up and said calmly: "Sister Lin, don't be angry. My second brother also said something unintentionally. Just forgive him."

After saying that, she winked at Baoyu again.

Baoyu hurriedly stood up, bowed her hands to Daiyu, and said, "I made a slip of the tongue. Please forgive me for this."

"snort!"

Daiyu snorted softly and turned her head arrogantly, still not giving Baoyu a good look.

At this moment, a little maid walked in through the curtain and said, "Miss Lin, your brother is here."

Upon hearing this, Daiyu quickly stood up and looked out the door.

Not long after, Lin Yun was seen walking in from the door accompanied by Wang Xifeng.

Seeing that the room was full of people, Lin Yun smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that everyone is here."

Wang Xifeng also smiled and said: "I made an agreement with Brother Yun for you, and he promised to give each of you a box of perfume."

Several little girls were overjoyed when they heard this and saluted Lin Yun one after another, "Thank you so much, Brother Lin!"

Lin Yun hurriedly replied: "You're welcome, we are all our own people."

After saying that, he looked at Shi Xiangyun and asked, "Are you Sister Xiangyun?"

Shi Xiangyun smiled and said, "Brother Lin also knows about me?"

"I heard it from my aunt. By the way, you are welcome to visit our house when you have time."

Shi Xiangyun: "Thank you, Brother Lin!"

Lin Yun finally said to Daiyu: "Yu'er, it's getting late, let's go back home quickly."

Baoyu became anxious when he heard this. He quickly stood up and said, "The ancestors said that Sister Lin should be allowed to stay here for a few more days."

Lin Yun: "Brother Bao, you should let our ancestors and my aunt decide this first. I was assigned by my aunt to take my sister back to my home. I don't dare to make my own decision to let her stay."

"How dare you disobey your ancestors?"

Lin Yun felt unhappy when he saw Baoyu trying to use the old lady to persuade him.

He said sarcastically: "Brother Bao, you are not young anymore. Don't use your ancestors to pressure others. We men must first learn to be responsible people. You can't live your whole life relying on others."

"You~"

Baoyu was so angry that he blushed. He reached out and touched the piece of jade on the collar, and was about to pull it down when he heard Lin Yun laugh jokingly: "Brother Bao, do you want to throw the jade again?"

"Well."

When Baoyu heard these words, the movements of his hands froze instantly, and his brain seemed to have lost the ability to think.

He only had one thought in his mind at the moment, "Is he mocking me? How dare he mock me!"

Wang Xifeng quickly came out to smooth things over, "Everyone has something to say. Brother Yun, since our ancestors want to keep Sister Lin here to stay for a few days, why don't you respect our orders?"

"Sister-in-law Feng, it stands to reason that since our ancestors have spoken, I should obey them. However, my aunt has spoken first, so I don't dare to make my own opinions. Please ask Sister-in-law Feng to accuse me in front of my ancestors. I will change my mind."

Come back tomorrow to receive your punishment."

After Lin Yun finished speaking, he extended his hand to Dai Yu and smiled: "Yu'er, let's go."

"Um,"

Daiyu had long been frightened by the tense atmosphere in the room. When she saw Lin Yun reaching out to him, she couldn't help but stretched out her hand to hold it, and followed Lin Yun's footsteps toward the door.

When the two of them walked to the door, Lin Yun suddenly turned around. He smiled at Baoyu, who was still standing there stupidly, and said, "Brother Bao, I'll give you a piece of advice. If the jade falls too much, it won't work anymore."
