When Jia Huan returned to his courtyard, it was already afternoon. Old Madam Jiang and Old Madam Feng were preparing dinner with a few little girls. When they saw Jia Huan return, they hurriedly greeted him.
Jia Huan could finally relax.
The brick bed was already warm and comfortable to sit on.
Caiyun brought some dried fruits and tea over and asked with a smile,""I heard that Third Master wants to buy land and open a shop?”
"How do you know?" Jia Huan asked in surprise.”
"I heard it from Sister Yuanyang."”
"As expected, news spreads fast."”
The Unglorious Cloud and the others knew about it, and so did the brothers and sisters in the Grand View Garden.
Xue Baochai was the first to react.”
"Don't talk nonsense." Aunt Xue was very surprised.”
"Let's wait and see."”
"Brother Huan wants to buy land and a shop," Jia Baoyu said gloomily. I don't even have anything here. The ancestor is also biased.”
"I didn't use the money from the government," Xiren comforted him. Didn't they say that Third Master would pay for it himself? It was just a few dozen acres of land, was it worth it for Second Master to be concerned about?”
Jia Baoyu had a bad feeling."This Third Brother Huan is so cunning. Who knows how much trouble he can cause?”
Yingchun Xichun and Lin Daiyu didn't think too much about it.
In the Pear Fragrance Courtyard, Jia Huan was lying lazily on the brick bed. He said to Caiyun,"Tonight, we were supposed to have some fun. Go and tell the little girls outside that if they can sing a few lines, as long as they are willing to perform, they will be rewarded with silver.”
Caiyun said,"I just have silver, but I have to spend it recklessly."”
Jia Huan took out a small box as if he was performing magic and said,"This is for you."
Caiyun took it curiously and asked,""What is it?"
"I bought rouge and cosmetic powder outside," Jia Huan said. I didn't know either, so I bought the expensive one. It shouldn't be wrong.”
Caiyun was delighted in her heart, but she said on the surface,"Third Master, don't spend money recklessly.”
Jia Huan smiled." If you have silver, you have to spend it quickly. Who are you saving it for?"”
Caiyun knew that Jia Huan had a hidden meaning in his words, but she couldn't answer. After putting away the rouge and powder, Jia Huan said,"Go and invite Second Sister over tonight. There are not many people over there, so it probably won't be lively tonight. See if any of your friends want to come over and play.”
"Then I'm afraid that tonight's banquet isn't prepared enough."”
Jia Huan said,"You just need to go and call the people." I'll go talk to Mother Feng and the others."
Caiyun left doubtfully.
When Jia Huan saw Caiyun leave, he shouted in the room,""Little Green, Little Red, no matter which one comes in first.”
Qing Zhu came in swiftly.
"Go, call everyone in!" Jia Huan laughed.”
"I thought Master had some good instructions," Qing Zhu said disappointedly,"but it turns out that you're calling for someone."”
Jia Huan said,"Hurry up and go. It's a good thing!"”
Qing Zhu ran to the door and shouted,""Come to the room. Third Master has something to instruct you.”
The few of them were skeptical, but they still entered.
Jia Huan saw that everyone had come in and said,"I asked Caiyun to call the others. Tonight, our Pear Fragrance Courtyard will also be lively and lively. I'm afraid we'll have to prepare the banquet again. However, it didn't matter. Mother Feng and Mother Jiang had worked hard.”
"What are you talking about, Third Master? This is what we should do."”
Jia Huan was very satisfied with the attitude of the two women and immediately said,"That's all for now. I guess we'll have to prepare an extra table for tonight. I'll just prepare two more tables. We'll eat the extra tomorrow. It won't go bad even if it's cold.”
"Then we'll have to hurry out and buy them." Old Madam Jiang hesitated. It was already afternoon, and it was still the first day of the new year. If he didn't go now, it would be too late.”
"Then hurry up and buy it," Jia Huan said.”
Old Woman Feng also lowered her head and said,"The silver that is bought has always been watched by Miss Caiyun."”
Jia Huan smiled." Mother Feng, don't just stand there. Hey, I have silver here. Hurry up and go."”
Old Woman Feng took a look and saw that there were a few silver ingots on the Kang table in front of Jia Huan.
He went forward and weighed it in his hand."Isn't this at least thirty taels? I'm afraid that they won't be able to find it."
Jia Huan said,"The rest is the reward. Hurry up and go."”
The two maids went out happily.
Seeing that Jia Huan had started to throw out silver, the remaining four little girls also began to look forward to it.
Jia Huan drank a mouthful of water and said,"It was a little rushed." But tonight, there was no one else. Hurry up and go down. Those who know how to hum a few words, hum a few words. Those who don't, hurry up and think of a joke or something. As long as you can open your mouth and make everyone laugh at night, you will get a red packet!”
The four little girls quickly dispersed. Not long after, a tune came from the courtyard.
After a long time, Caiyun returned and said excitedly,"Third Master, Second Young Lady said that she would definitely come tonight. It just so happened that the Fourth Young Lady was also playing at the Second Young Lady's place, and when she heard it, she also said that she wanted to come.”
Jia Huan said,"That's great. He looked at the room and found that it was big enough."Yes, there will be a table on the brick bed and two tables below it.””
"I'm afraid there won't be enough seats." Caiyun said.”
"I've already asked Mother Feng and Mother Jiang to go out and buy it," Jia Huan said.”
"You rewarded them with silver again?" Caiyun asked.”
Jia Huan laughed. As expected, the people around him understood him. He immediately said,"The two mothers have worked hard for a year. Besides, they can't come up tonight to sing a few lines to earn some money, so they'll be rewarded in advance.”
Caiyun said in a muffled voice,"Even if there is a mountain of gold, it is not enough for Third Master to go out."”
"I already have a mountain of gold," Jia Huan said in a low voice.”
"Where did this gold mountain come from?" Caiyun asked curiously.”
Jia Huan took out a small box from behind his butt. After opening it, it was filled with silver.
Caiyun exclaimed,"This…" Then, she quickly whispered,"This is…""I'm afraid it's no less than eight hundred taels."
"You can look at it again," Jia Huan said with a smile. Then, he took out a small one. It was filled with copper coins and silver ingots. It looked like it was worth more than a hundred taels.
"My mother!" Caiyun said. Third Master, did you go to rob?"
"Otherwise, why would your Third Master study so hard to get an official rank?" Jia Huan laughed.”
Caiyun suddenly pulled a long face and said,""The silver in this box will be gone after tonight.”
Jia Huan said,"You really are the material to be a housekeeper. You know how to care for others." "In the future, you'll be in charge of the silver for Third Master. I won't be at ease with others.”
"You don't look proper!" Caiyun said angrily. Then he said,"Other than Second Young Lady and Fourth Young Lady, Cai Xia, who is by Madam's side, is also coming over."”
"Alright then!" Jia Huan said. It's also lively with more people."
Caiyun saw that Jia Huan was not angry, so she was relieved.
The two maids who had bought the food had returned. They were in a good mood because they had received a reward.
The little girl outside also began to help. Washing and choosing vegetables was nothing difficult.
While everyone was still busy, the courtyard of Yingchun was also very lively.
Because Caiyun had said that the little girls from Pear Fragrance Court would sing and tell stories tonight, Siqi and the others were not willing to fall behind and started humming.
"Second Older Sister, what is Third Older Brother doing?" Xi Chun felt very curious and asked.”
"I guess there's something up again." Yingchun smiled. We have nothing to do tonight, so we'll go and have some fun.”
Because Si Qi often gave things to Jia Huan, she said quickly,"Third Master will definitely reward you tonight.”
"You talk too much," said Ying Chun. Then he said to Xichun,"You might as well let your servant girl prepare." Regardless of whether they were rewarded with money or not, it was a pleasure.”
