Chapter 720(1/2)
On the first day of October, Chen hour has just passed.
The carriage of the Xue and Jiao families slowly stopped in front of the Muni Courtyard. The first people to get off the carriage were the two sisters Baochai and Baoqin. Then Shi Xiangyun, with the support of Ping'er and Siqi, stepped forward cautiously.
Went down the steps.
Seeing the two of them humming and guarding each other as if they were guarding each other, with Cui Xi behind them, Xiang Ling stretched out her hands to hold Xiang Yun in case of slipping and falling.
More eyeballs than eyeballs, I finally see it today."
Shi Xiangyun sighed helplessly, caressing his pregnant belly and said distressedly: "I don't want to either, but...well, it's just that when our master is around, I can feel more relaxed."
It's not that Jiao Shun didn't cherish her, but these over-care practices were basically arranged by the Xu family. The concubines didn't dare to disobey her, and they were afraid of being held responsible for something going wrong, so they naturally had to pay more attention to her.
Complete the task without increasing the price.
"You have never known how blessed you are when you are so young. How many people ask for you but don't get it."
While the two were chatting and laughing, Li Wan, Tanchun, Xichun and Miaoyu came out to greet them. Seeing Shi Xiangyun's battle, they couldn't help but make some jokes.
In the end, Ping'er took the initiative to ask about Wang Xifeng's movements, and Miaoyu hurriedly led them in to meet the eldest lady Xing.
When they arrived in front of the Main Hall, Mrs. Xing also led Wang Xifeng to greet him.
Shi Xiangyun bowed briefly, then looked at Wang Xifeng out of curiosity: "I heard that my sister is also pregnant?"
"Alas~"
Wang Xifeng sighed half-seriously: "This child came at the wrong time, so I had no choice but to follow him in the temple to avoid the limelight."
Pregnancy during the period of filial piety is indeed not a commendable thing, and Shi Xiangyun didn't know how to comfort her for a while.
At this time, Li Wan took Wang Xifeng's arm from the side and said jokingly: "She has her front legs, and you have your back legs. It shows that these two children are destined, why not just get married by fingertips... Hey, young
~!"
Before she could finish her words, Wang Xifeng elbowed her.
"this……"
Shi Xiangyun was really moved, but seeing that Wang Xifeng didn't seem to agree, he didn't know how to proceed.
Wang Xifeng glared at Li Wan again. Her sister-in-law always looked the most serious, but she would jump out and act like a monster from time to time. It was obvious that she was rebellious in her heart. No wonder she was the first one to climb into Jiao Shun's bed.
No, the first one seems to be Sister-in-law Jane...
Then she is also the first one in Rongguo Mansion!
Turning her head, she smiled at Shi Xiangyun and said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. Since ancient times, I have only heard that men marry with their fingertips. How can we, women, make it casually?"
Then he looked around and changed the subject: "By the way, where is Brother Shun? Didn't he come with you? Or was he stopped by our second master and Baoyu?"
"It happened that His Majesty summoned him to the palace to discuss matters concerning Zhan Shifu."
Shi Xiangyun hurriedly explained: "We made an appointment to come directly here to take us back when we come out of the palace."
I heard that Jiao Shun did not come, but many people present were secretly disappointed.
Especially Mrs. Xing, she couldn't help complaining: "Why is it such an unlucky coincidence? I also want to try that interactive drama."
"That's easy to say!"
When Shi Xiangyun heard this, he immediately waved to the back, and then he saw two maids carrying a big box and placing it firmly in the middle.
Shi Xiangyun touched the box and said with a smile: "What's inside here is the script for the interactive drama. Xiangling and Hongyu have already rehearsed it in advance. Just let her host it for us when the time comes."
The reason why only Xiangling Hongyu has practiced it is because they are the only two maids who can read seriously.
Mrs.
.
In order not to be compared with Li Wan, Tan Chun even deliberately wrapped herself in a sexy dress under her skirt. But now that the script was given to Shi Xiangyun, there would definitely not be anything inappropriate, so how could she
Isn't this all the hard work in vain?
She was so unhappy here that she naturally forgot to pick up the conversation.
Fortunately, Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu also rushed over at this time. After another exchange of greetings, everyone gathered around Shi Xiangyun and went to the Zen room in the backyard.
After the seats were arranged in a busy and unhurried manner, Shi Xiangyun remembered the reason for his visit, so he suggested that he want to see Yingchun first.
Next to him, Baochai also echoed.
How dare Tanchun let them meet Yingchun?
At that moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "Second sister suddenly changed places and had another attack. It's really inconvenient to see people now - if you don't believe me, ask Master Miaoyu."
Shi Xiangyun's eyes turned to Miaoyu, and he saw Miaoyu's Xianfeng Daogu clasping his hands together and reciting the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, good, good, good."
Although I don't affirm it, I don't deny it either.
Just when Xiangyun was hesitant to ask what kind of inconvenient method it was, Wang Xifeng jumped out and said that it would be better to try the interactive drama first. If it turns out to be good, start it as soon as possible.
Everyone present responded one after another. Shi Xiangyun saw that he could not do anything, so he had no choice but to give up - but he couldn't help but have secret doubts about the reason why Yingchun was sent to the temple.
So Shi Xiangyun called Hong Yu and Xiang Ling, and they handed out scripts tailor-made for each person one by one. Then he asked Miao Yu for two private rooms and began to arrange them intensively.
During this period, everyone was familiar with their own scripts separately.
Jia Baoyu was no exception, but he flipped through two pages and couldn't read it. Thinking of his previous offensive proposal, he got up and went out, and after asking around, he found Xue Baochai's house.
According to the rules, the two people who are about to get married cannot meet each other at this time.
However, the rules of Rongguo Mansion are not strict, and the two of them also grew up together, so the gatekeeper Ying'er didn't stop him and let him in directly, and also thoughtfully led the maids out.
outside the door.
Xue Baochai put down the script in his hand, looked up at Baoyu and asked, "Does the Second Master have any instructions?"
Baoyu was made uncomfortable by her saying "Second Master", but she couldn't find fault with her words - in more than half a month, wouldn't she have to call herself "Second Master"?
After a moment of hesitation, he gave up the idea of correcting Baochai and said straight to the point: "I came to see my sister because I have something to ask for - wait, after we get married, can you accompany me to Suzhou to find Sister Lin? I
I heard that your family also has many industries in Suzhou, so it will be easier to find people!"
He stuttered a bit at first, but then he became more and more excited as he spoke.
Xue Baochai frowned slightly, but anyone with a certain level of government would be able to tell that what he said at the Wang family that day was just a show, but it was obvious that Baoyu meant it seriously.
Faced with such a rude request, she remained silent for a moment, then faced Jia Baoyu's hopeful eyes and asked, "I can accompany you to find Sister Lin..."
"Great, great! Thank you sister for making it possible, thank you sister for making it possible!"
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he was overjoyed. He took two steps forward and grabbed Xue Baochai's white wrist, shaking it desperately.
Xue Baochai was caught off guard and was shaken forward by him. He quickly supported the kang table with his hands. He stopped leaning forward, but there was a big movement on his chest, and a large piece of white greasy swayed from his collar.
Jia Baoyu was unconsciously attracted to his gaze, and it wasn't until Baochai covered it with his hands and looked over angrily that he quickly retreated to his original position.
Xue Baochai sat upright again and said with a pretty face: "Listen to what I have to say. I can accompany you to find Sister Lin, or I can use the Xue family's financial connections in Suzhou, but how to find it and how long it takes to find it, I can't find it.
What should I do? You should draft a charter in advance, right?"
Jia Baoyu really wanted to say that if he couldn't find it, he would continue to look for it, and he would have to look for it for the rest of his life, but after all, he was not completely brainless and knew that this was not realistic at all, and Baochai would not support him in such nonsense.
But when it came to setting a time limit for himself, he was completely reluctant.
Seeing him like this, Xue Baochai continued to press: "Even if I don't have any objection, do you really have the heart to leave your aunt, uncle, and old lady in the capital without asking any questions?"
Jia Baoyu became more and more shaken, and muttered after a while: "Well, let's look for a year first?"
"What about one year later? What if we still can't find it?"
"Then, then..."
Jia Baoyu moved his lips a few times, but he really couldn't say the words to give up completely when the time came.
Seeing this, Xue Baochai sighed helplessly and said, "You can think about it better when you go back. Once we have made up our mind, we will make it a reality! But when the time comes, you have to promise me something in exchange."
Lin Daiyu is now living in seclusion in the capital. Going to the south to find her is doomed to be futile. If she can get Baoyu to be obedient and cooperate with her "husband-taming plan", so what if she wastes a year?
Jia Baoyu didn't even ask what it was about, and agreed without thinking.
Since then, the first script killing in history has officially begun. Since most of the participants are women, the script prepared by Jiao Shun focuses on emotional interaction [a bloody plot], and the suspense only has the effect of connecting the stories together.
As expected, this approach appeals to most people's tastes, and they even forget to eat and sleep while playing, and they still have endless aftertaste until the afternoon.
During this period, Tanchun was the one who was really obsessed with finding out the truth.
Jiao Shuncai finally arrived in the evening. Naturally, he couldn't do anything in front of so many people, so he just chatted with Shi Xiangyun. He also took the time to discuss opening a script killing shop with Wang Xifeng and others, and then they went their separate ways.
He said goodbye and left Muni Monastery.
As for welcoming the spring...
Anyway, the meal is already on the plate, so there is no need to rush.
…………
The next day.
While sorting out the messy drafts on the table, Xiren couldn't help but yawn sleepily.
After returning from the temple yesterday, Baoyu took her to discuss the matter of going south to Suzhou. They went over it countless times. Although she still had no idea, she didn't want to go to bed until late at night.
To be continued...
