Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

Chapter 148 Kneeling

But seeing a woman push Jiao Qian away, hurried in, saw Jia Huan at a glance, looked up and down, and then felt relieved, it was Jia Tanchun who came.

She bowed towards Daiyu and said, "I met Sister Lin."

Daiyu also returned the gift.

The relationship between sisters is usually very good, and it is rare for them to salute when they meet each other, but since Tanchun salutes, Jia Lu, as a younger sister, has to salute her too.

"Meet the third sister."

Before she could bend down, Jia Tanchun grabbed her arm and said,

"How dare to be a big gift to my sister, Huan'er has been naughty since she was a child, so I don't know if she has disturbed the sisters?"

"Brother Huan has a very good temper, and besides, they are all brothers and sisters of his own family, so there is no offense or no offense." Jia Lu responded.

Very good tempered?I have never heard of Jia Huan making such an evaluation before. Tanchun glanced at Jia Huan suspiciously. Seeing her looking over, Jia Huan said "Sister", Tanchun took his hand and squeezed it carefully. with, say,

"Now that winter is over, your swelling hasn't improved. I'm afraid it's not just from freezing. Stop those antifreeze and anti-swelling medicines first. I'm afraid some medicines are not right for you. Why don't I go and invite a doctor over to help you?" Take a look?"

Jia Huan shook his head, "No need, your life is not very good, I'm just a little swollen, and it will be better when it gets hotter in summer."

The two were chatting peacefully, Daiyu and Jia Lu looked at it strangely, if you say that there are brothers and sisters in every house of the Jia family, but the relationship between the brothers and sisters in each house is not very good, like the eldest house, Jia Lian is a good-tempered person, Jia Yingchun is also gentle and courteous, but for some reason, the two are far apart. As for Jia Lu and her elder brother Jia Zhen, Jia Zhen is old enough to be his father. Usually, Jia Jing and his wife despise him, fearing that he will spoil him Without Jia Lu, the two of them are just more familiar than strangers.

As for the two siblings Tanchun and Jia Huan in the second room, when Tanchun was young, he was taken to Jia's mother to live with him. He was well-clothed and well-fed, and Jia Huan followed Aunt Zhao, although he could eat enough Nuan, but it’s not 01:30 that’s worse than Tanchun. Tanchun is an arrogant person, and he can match up with Jia Lu. Jia Huan is not as intelligent as Baoyu, so naturally he doesn’t like him very much. At the instigation of Aunt Zhao, Jia Huan did not get along well with her sister, and the two confronted Maimang.

This was the past two years, Daiyu was in the south, Jia Lu was at home, even in the yard, they kept their filial piety behind closed doors, did they know that the relationship between the two of them was so good?

No more occasionally going home than Jia Lu. Daiyu lived in the garden and knew a little more. On the surface, Tanchun is still as close as before, but it seems that since the incident between Jia Huan and Aunt Zhao a few years ago Afterwards, something changed, and she thought about the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that Jia Huan took just now, it seems to be Tanchun's favorite food on weekdays?

Daiyu thought about it, but Jia Lu said,

"Third sister probably doesn't know that the swelling on Brother Huan's hand is not a serious problem, it's just that he injured a vein. If he doesn't take good care of it and his hand shakes constantly, I'm afraid he won't be able to read and write in the future!"

Jia Tanchun turned pale with shock, "What, it's true!"

Jia Huan hid his hands behind his back, Tan Chun abruptly pulled them out, and looked them over carefully, it was really unnatural.

If you say that Tanchun is Jia Huan's sister, and seeing that the relationship between the two is good, why is she only swollen but not trembling? It turns out that although Tanchun wanted to help Jia Huan, due to the power of Mrs. They didn't dare to get too close, even if they met occasionally, they were in a hurry. Jia Huan deliberately concealed it, so Tanchun never heard of it.

"This! This!" Tanchun staggered when he heard such a thing suddenly.

Jia Lu looked at it, quickly supported one side, and asked Shi Shu to quickly support the other side and put her on the soft kang.

This Tanchun seems to have lost his soul, completely ignoring the affairs of the outside world, allowing others to fiddle with him, and still muttering in his mouth.

Jia Lu leaned closer and listened, "It's over! It's over!"

Both Jia Lu and Daiyu knew about this, how could Tanchun not know about it, now that she is completely attached to the old lady, and she has attracted the attention of the old lady, she is going through a difficult life, and she still secretly helps Jia Huan, why?

For one thing, the old lady is still there, so Jia Huan still retains the blood of the old lady. If the old lady sees Jia Huan's embarrassment for a while, the wife will be better, and Baoyu and her mother will reprimand him secretly. , It's just that she, the elder sister, is afraid that she will lose her only backer, which is why she has to protect her.

Second, she had heard about Baoyu's commotion in Nuanxiangwu that day. She knew that Baoyu didn't care about fame and wealth, and that he didn't care about official career and economics. How can I attach myself to him? Compared with Baoyu who grew up in a honey pot, Jia Huan was beaten into the sea since he was a child, and he knows how to read. Even Tanchun secretly admires his character, thinking that even though he is not very smart, he can learn and persevere, coupled with his reputation in ethnology, in the future, even if he does not rely on the family, he may not be able to study well!

Three things, since Aunt Zhao was detained, Jia Huan has been less influenced by her. Whether it is dealing with people or getting along with her as a sister, she has become more mature and sensible, and she may not be able to rely on her in the future.

But all of this is based on the premise that Jia Huan will be able to study and take scientific examinations in the future. Jia Lu's remarks just now directly shattered the belief that Tanchun has always insisted on. This is not a big blow to Tanchun.

Jia Lu looked at Tanchun like this and was also afraid, afraid that she would get confused, so she hurriedly asked Grandma Sun to come and have a look.

Nanny Sun took out the silver needle she was carrying with her from her sleeve, and before it was too late, she directly pricked a few needles on her forehead.

As Tanchun's head turned into a hedgehog, her eyes gradually became more focused and energetic.

Jia Huan sat on the side leaning against Tanchun, took her hand, and said,

"Sister, don't worry. I'm not smart, and I'm not good at reading and writing. Even if I can't learn literature, I may not be able to learn martial arts. Since our ancestors were able to lay down such a foundation in troubled times, as the descendants of our ancestors , I may not be able to earn a life for you and my aunt in the future!"

Tanchun saw that Jia Huan, who should be sad the most, was not discouraged, and took the initiative to find another source for himself. How could he lose hope like this!

So Tan Chunqiang cheered up, recovered a bit of the demeanor of the thorny rose who was looking forward to the flying and radiant, and thought carefully along Jia Huan's train of thought.

After a long while, he stood up with a needle on his forehead, looked around, and finally focused his gaze on Jia Lu's side, walked slowly, and arrived in front of Jia Lu.

"Plop!" Kneeling on the ground with a sound.

In terms of status, Jia Lu, who was born as a daughter-in-law, is naturally much higher than Jia Tanchun, who is born as a maidservant, but this is not the official position in the previous dynasty. What about the difference between the elder and the younger, not to mention such a big kneeling ceremony, Jia Lu quickly turned sideways to avoid the ceremony, and pulled her to get up quickly.

But was stopped by Tanchun, Tanchun said,

"Fourth sister, I have something to ask you. I know that I offended you a little when I was young. In view of our sisterhood for many years, I must accept it. If not, I will not get up."

Seeing this, Jia Huan knew that it was mostly for his own business, and thinking of the kindness of the meal just now, he also knelt on the side.
