Origin and Story of 嘻嘻哈哈
When Jia Baoyu returned from outside, he found that Xiren and Qingwen were both absent. He wanted tea and a bath, so Xiaohong immediately came forward to attend to him.
Baoyu felt it was a bit odd, but since there were no other maids to call upon, he had to accept her service.
Just then, Qiuwen and Bihen entered, sharing the task of carrying a bucket of water. They were laughing and joking merrily, stumbling a little as they walked.
Seeing this, Xiaohong discreetly left.
