Chapter 598 One Xiaoxiang Pavilion, two 'Lin Daiyu'
In Rongqing Hall, when Jia Baoyu rushed over excitedly, he found that the style of the house today was indeed different from the past.
Not only were there more maids and servants standing everywhere than in the past, but all of them were holding their breath and devoted to their duties, which was a huge change from the previous days of laziness and casualness.
Jia Baoyu slowed down his steps and entered the hall after informing him.
The atmosphere in Rongqing Hall is indeed peaceful. A middle-aged woman with graceful temperament and gorgeous clothes is sitting at the foot of the hall. Behind her, there are seven or eight servants and five or six maids. Although they don't know each other, they know what they are wearing.
The clothes and style are actually three points more gorgeous than those in Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Baoyu glanced at the young and beautiful maids, and then, following the etiquette of everyone's young masters, he stepped forward to greet Jia Mu and others in turn.
Jia's mother was very satisfied with Jia Baoyu's performance and said with a smile: "Baoyu, why don't you come forward to see Mrs. Zhen's family?"
"Baoyu, meet Madam."
Jia Baoyu felt very disappointed because he didn't see the Miss Zhen family who was said to be very similar to Dai Yu. But then he raised his head inexplicably, because as he greeted him, the graceful and luxurious person in front of him looked like...
Mrs. Zhen's wife, who was very dignified, didn't respond at all, she just stared at him with wide eyes.
As a result, not to mention Jia Baoyu, even Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, etc. were all surprised.
It was a servant girl of the Zhen family who saw her wife being rude and coughed twice before reminding her to come over.
Mrs. Zhen's wife and Jia Mu and others looked at each other, and there was still a look of surprise in their eyes. Regardless of the etiquette of family friends, she stood up and walked to Jia Baoyu, looked Jia Baoyu up and down, and then apologized to Jia Mu.
He said: "Please don't be surprised, madam. There are such coincidences in the world. It was just a little girl before. Unexpectedly, the second son of your house is so similar to the incompetent boy of my family!"
"Oh, is it really such a coincidence?"
When Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang heard this, they both felt very strange. Through the previous chat, they both knew that Mrs. Zhen was a dignified and self-controlled person. She would not pretend to be like this to close the relationship between the two families. Judging from her demeanor just now,
, is there really such a coincidence in the world?
When they saw the fourth young lady of the Zhen family just now, they were also startled.
Jia Baoyu didn't care too much about his resemblance to He Sheng. He only mentioned "the former little girl" and other words from Mrs. Zhen's words just now, and his mind suddenly became active. Could it be that that lady is really here?
The servants and wives of the Zhen family were afraid that the Jia family would not believe their wife's words, so they all echoed their words, saying how Jia Baoyu was similar to their second master Bao, and they were both called "Baoyu", which made Jia's mother and others marvel.
While he was laughing and chatting, he heard a burst of chirping from the back porch, and then several maids opened the way, and a group of beautiful girls walked in.
It is sisters such as Sanchun and Daiyu.
Jia Baoyu subconsciously wanted to go forward, but just took a step forward, and his body suddenly stopped. He looked ahead foolishly and murmured: "Oh my god, how come there are two sisters Lin?"
Jia Baoyu's reaction and words made everyone including Jia Mu couldn't help laughing. Even Sanchun, Baochai and others were smiling. Only Daiyu and Zhen Yuhuan, who were holding hands with her, could not help laughing.
A little embarrassed.
But then the two of them looked at each other, and their two pretty little faces like hibiscus couldn't help but smile.
Looking at each other is like looking in a mirror, they both feel so magical.
Following the beckons of Jia Mu and Mrs. Zhen's family, Dai and Yu separated and snuggled into the arms of their elders.
While holding Daiyu's frail body, Jia Mu saw Jia Baoyu staring at her daughter with bulging eyes, so she smiled and said: "Baoyu, this is the adopted sister your second brother Lian recognized in Nanjing, that is, you."
My sister, I haven’t met her before.”
"Uh, it's... Baoyu, I've met this sister..."
Jia Baoyu's eyes were unwilling to leave the girl in front of him for a moment, who was almost exactly the same as Daiyu. He felt that God must be very kind to him, otherwise, how could he send this girl to him?
Coming?
At this moment, the girl in red and the second girl were all out of his sight. In his eyes, he only saw the clean daughter in front of him who was smart, graceful, and loving.
Perhaps it was because of today's series of coincidences, or perhaps it was because Jia Baoyu looked so much like her precious son that the wife of the Zhen family did not feel rude because of Jia Baoyu's "idiot", but instead pulled her into her arms.
His daughter motioned for her to stand up and return the favor.
Therefore, Zhen Yuhuan, who had rarely seen her husband and was a little shy, slowly stood up. After a brief greeting with Jia Baoyu, she found that Jia Baoyu's eyes became more intense, so she couldn't help but hide behind her mother.
"Baoyu..."
Mrs. Wang saw that her son was acting stupid again and was about to chase Mrs. Zhen's family. She couldn't help laughing and called out before waking up Jia Baoyu. Facing Mrs. Wang's gesturing gaze, Jia Baoyu slowly walked back.
, but that look of taking three steps and one glance made the Miharu sisters laugh so hard.
Only Jia Mu saw it and had other thoughts in her heart.
She has an easy-going nature and is accustomed to wealth, so her love for Jia Baoyu is a bit more pure than that of Mrs. Wang.
Seeing Jia Baoyu like this, how could she not know that Jia Baoyu has reached the age of being sensible and started to admire Shaoai?
Daiyu was like this before, and so was the fourth lady of the Zhen family in front of her. Mother Jia, who felt a little sorry for her precious grandson because of Daiyu, couldn't help but glance at Zhen Yuhuan again, and nodded secretly.
.
Continuing to chat for a few words, Mrs. Zhen's wife looked around and said: "It's getting late, old lady, it's time for me to say goodbye."
Jia Mu said hurriedly: "Why are you leaving in such a hurry? Don't you want Yu Huan to meet her sworn brother..."
As she said this, Jia Mu thought Mrs. Zhen was angry because she had waited too long, so she asked the people around her: "Didn't you say that Lian'er has returned home? Why haven't you come over yet?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The servants and wives said: "I came here originally, but I was hurried away by the master's people halfway."
"Well, what happened to their master that they have to come to him at this time?"
Mother Jia was a little displeased. Jia Lian had always gone her own way, but Jia Zheng was a polite and filial person. Now he dared to intercept the person she summoned. Could it be that he was imitating Lian'er and not taking her seriously.
Therefore, while stabilizing Mrs. Zhen's family, she ordered someone to rush her.
Suddenly Lin Zhixiao's family came back and said with a smile: "Old lady, it's a happy event, a great happy event."
"What happy event?"
"Our second master has been promoted again!
"
Everyone in the Rongqing Hall was silent. Mrs. Zhen's eyes rolled. She had already thought about how to refuse Jia Mu's offer to stay, so she immediately sat back on the half of her buttocks that had been moved out.
…
When Jia Lian returned to Rongqing Hall from Mengpo Zhai, she found that the maids on the corridor looked at her with reverence and worship.
In this regard, Jia Lian quickly understood that it was his promotion that had spread.
Speaking of which, Jia Zheng's information is fairly well-informed.
Entering Rongqing Hall, he met Jia Mu, Mrs. Zhen's wife and others one by one. Jia Mu first asked him about his promotion.
Jia Lian said casually: "It is indeed a promotion. Your Majesty wants to establish a new type of Forbidden Army organization and promote me to the position of commander."
Jia Lian did not want to talk about firearms with Jia Mu and other women and children. As for going to Tianjin to build warships, he did not plan to talk about it yet.
"He was actually transferred to the Forbidden Army, or was he the commander?"
Even though what Jia Lian said was very simple, it still shocked Jia Mu and others. The Imperial Army is the army that guards the imperial city and protects the emperor. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is the most glorious and noble army in the world.
.
"It's not that I was transferred to the Forbidden Army, but His Majesty asked me to create a new army under the control of the Forbidden Army. As for Pinyi, I just started from three, which is a level up from what I was doing before."
After emphasizing the explanation again, Jia Lian stopped talking and turned to look at Zhen Yuhuan.
Even though she had met her before and was mentally prepared, Jia Lian was still heartbroken when she saw her adopted sister again.
I can't help it, she and Daiyu are so similar.
People in the Jia family used to say that the longer Xiangling grew, the more she looked like Qin Keqing. Even Jia Lian himself asked Xiangling to wear Qin Keqing's clothes for comparison... Don't tell me, she really looked like him!
However, Jia Lian could easily distinguish Xiang Ling from Qin Keqing's clothes.
This Zhen Yuhuan...
Not to mention wearing the same clothes as Daiyu, but wearing different clothes. If he appeared in a different place, Jia Lian felt that he might admit his mistake.
They are more like twins than twins!
"Sister-in-law, long time no see."
"Yu Huan, meet your sworn brother"
Facing Jia Lian, Zhen Yuhuan looked much more natural. Her eyes, as smart as Daiyu's, looked at Jia Lian with dazzling eyes. She seemed to be curious: Brother, you are so young, how come you are so good at being an official?
Jia Lian saw that she looked cute and was about to say something to tease her. Suddenly he felt a sharp gaze in the distance. Jia Lian turned around and saw that it was Daiyu girl staring at him. Jia Lian smiled, turned and sat aside.
As soon as he sat down, Mrs. Zhen's wife followed Jia Mu and others and asked about Jia Lian's official affairs. She actually seemed to be more concerned about Jia Lian's future than Jia Mu, an ancestor.
Jia Lian smiled inwardly, and after a few perfunctory words, asked: "It has been more than half a year since I last said goodbye to my wife in Jinling. I wonder why my wife came to Beijing with her adopted sister this time?"
"This, this... the main reason is that your sister is weak and has been sick all year round. We have invited many famous doctors from Jiangnan, but to no avail. That's why we thought of taking her to the capital to have a look. By the way, we also visited the doctors in Beijing.
Make friends and family."
"I see. It just so happens that I actually know a few famous doctors in Gyeonggi Province. I will invite them over later to have a diagnosis and treatment with my adopted sister."
"Why go to all this trouble."
Jia Mu suddenly interrupted and said with a smile: "I also often take medicine, and I know all the excellent doctors in the palace. I think the symptoms on Yuhuan's girl are probably the same as my Yu'er's.
Dr. Wang in the palace is very good at curing the infirmities of his children. Well, why don't you just stay here with us, and tomorrow I will invite him over to show the two girls a look.
.”
"This, I'm afraid, is inappropriate and too troublesome."
"What's the trouble? We happen to have a lot of girls at home, and I think the Yuhuan girls get along well with them. Letting them play together and keep company is not necessarily good for their health.
That's it. From the first moment I saw Yu Huan, I liked this girl, so let alone seeing her a doctor, even if there is no such thing, I also want to keep her by my side and talk to my old man.
Woolen cloth."
No one in the Jia family is surprised by Jia Mu's words. They all know that she likes to be lively. As long as she likes the children of relatives, she usually likes to stay as a guest.
Mrs. Zhen's wife was a little embarrassed when she saw Jia's mother speaking so politely and enthusiastically, and couldn't help but look at her daughter.
When Zhen Yuhuan saw this, she immediately became interested. Before entering Rongguo Mansion, she never thought that the Jia family would have so many sisters of the same age as her!
Moreover, these sisters of the Jia family are all smart, dignified and polite, and are even better than their own sisters. In particular, there is a little sister who is exactly the same as their own, and they just took her to their home
When you go there to play, even though it is just a brief look, you can also see the fairyland of the heavenly palace.
She was just a girl in her prime, naturally playful, and she was the only one who came to Beijing with her mother this time. If she could stay at Jia's house and play with these sisters, it would be much more interesting than going back to another house.
Mrs. Zhen understood her daughter's thoughts, smiled, stood up and bowed: "Since the old lady has said so, I dare not disobey. It's just that our family has lived in the south, and when we come to Beijing this time, we really should go there to make friends and relatives.
I’ll pay you a visit at my house.
Therefore, let me forget it, junior, and let Yu Huan stay with the old lady and accompany the old lady on behalf of the junior. It’s just that my little girl is naughty, so please bear with the old lady and all the ladies."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After some pulling by Jia Mu and others, Mrs. Zhen finally left after having dinner at Rongqing Hall.
Zhen Yuhuan, of course, stayed, which made Jia Baoyu smile the whole night, changing from the previous decadence.
"Girl, you and your sisters all live in the garden at the back, and they must have taken you in to see it before.
Think for yourself whether you want to live with them or not. If you don't want to live with them, you can stay with me and stay with me."
After eating tea, Jia Mu looked at the whole room of grandchildren and said to Zhen Yuhuan with a smile.
When Zhen Yuhuan heard this, she immediately looked at Daiyu.
Jia Baoyu became anxious and said quickly: "Old lady, let her live with Sister Bao. Sister Bao is attentive and can take care of people. It will definitely be most appropriate for her to live with Sister Bao in Hengwuyuan."
As soon as Jia Baoyu said his words, almost everyone understood his little plan.
After what happened before, he could no longer enter the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. If Zhen Yuhuan and Daiyu lived in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion together, he would certainly not be able to go and have a look. Therefore, he suggested that Zhen Yuhuan and Baochai live together in Hengwuyuan. Be careful.
Reasonable.
However, his words offended Daiyu again.
What do you mean by "Sister Bao is careful and takes care of others?" Could it be that she is careless and can bully others?
Baochai didn't want to wear this hat either, and said with a smile: "Sister Yuhuan is weak. Hengwuyuan is a little far away and the terrain is high. It's better to let her live with Sister Lin. Then the old lady will ask for medical advice for them.
, and a little more convenient.”
Zhen Yuhuan didn't know what the secret was. She originally wanted to live with Daiyu, so she took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "Sister Lin, can I live with you?"
