Chapter 18 Visiting Jia Zhen
…
Rongxi Hall.
Mother Jia looked at the handsome young man in the hall and frowned slightly: "Shan'er, I heard that you made trouble in the clan school again, making your husband angry, and you even changed your studies to another place out of anger?"
Jia Shan said sternly: "It's not that I'm angry, my ancestors didn't know something. The old man in the clan school is certainly knowledgeable, but he is old and there are many students in the clan school. It is inevitable that he will not be able to manage it. Over there
It’s really hard to calm down and read, so..."
Jia Mu took Baoyu aside and said with a smile: "Why do you study in one place and teach with one teacher, and Baoyu studies well? You want me to say that the reason why you can't calm down and study is because your mind is not in any place, and you only think about being naughty and mischievous."
, it’s useless no matter where you go!”
Jia Shan smiled hurriedly and said: "It's true, Brother Bao is studying very well there! But I am dull and a little playful, so..."
Seeing that Jia Shan still had some self-awareness, Jia Mu said with a smile: "That's all. Since you have gone to the academy, just study hard there. I don't expect you to be able to read anything. Just remember not to read anything."
If you cause trouble outside, it will only bring discredit to your family."
"Don't worry, ancestor, I'll be honest there and won't cause trouble at all!"
"Go!" Mother Jia waved her hand and said, "Just live your life guarding your two little mice. If you dare to bully your sisters or Baoyu again in the future, it's better for you!"
Jia Shan grimaced: "I don't dare anymore..."
"Pfft."
"Giggle..."
Everyone burst into laughter, and Daiyu glanced at Jia Shan with her beautiful eyes. Seeing Jia Shan looking at her, she quickly turned her head away and talked to Yingchun as if nothing had happened.
……
"Third uncle, third uncle?"
Jia Shan turned around and looked around, only to see a handsome young man walking down the corridor. Of course, he could not be compared to him.
"Xiao Qiang, what's the matter?"
Jia Qiang and Jia Rui were flirting with each other that day, and Jia Shan was just looking for a chance to have a good fight with him.
"Hey, it's like this. The third uncle is about to study outside. We have been classmates for many years and we are a little reluctant to leave. Today I prepared a table of wine and food at home, hoping that the third uncle will show his respect..." Jia Qiang knew that Jia Qiang knew that
Shan has never participated in gambling or anything like that. If you drag Jia Shan to gamble directly, it may be of no use. You might as well add a meal of food and wine to get the person drunk first.
Seeing that Jia Shan didn't believe it, Jia Qiang hurriedly smiled and said: "By the way, I want to apologize to Third Uncle. The painting has been found. I wrongly blamed Third Uncle, and we all feel uneasy."
Jia Shan nodded and smiled: "I told you a long time ago that I didn't take it and you still don't believe it, so there's no need for a banquet..."
"Third uncle, the food and wine are specially prepared for you. If you don't go there, won't you be wasting your nephews' hard work?"
"This... okay, where is it?"
Jia Qiang was so persistent and filial, Jia Shan was completely moved... Let's see what tricks these boys can play.
"It's in Huifang Garden in Dongfu. Brother Rong is already waiting there..."
"It's easy to say, you go back first and I'll be there in a minute!"
"Third uncle, you must come..."
Jia Huan smiled and said: "I will definitely pass by then."
After Jia Qiang left with peace of mind, he returned to the east wing of the courtyard prepared by Jia Mu for him. Ping'er had tidied up and was sitting on the stone platform at the door, doing needlework with his head down.
The evening breeze blew by, ruffling the girl's hair.
The afterglow of the setting sun passed by, lengthening the figure of the girl.
Jia Shan walked by quietly, disturbing the girl's heartstrings.
"Third Master, are you okay?" Ping'er asked, hurriedly putting needle and thread in his hands.
She also knew that when the old lady called Jia Shan over, she was definitely trying to teach her a lesson, and she might even extend the punishment period.
Jia Shan raised her hand and flicked the girl's hair, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you go back first, I'm going to Dongfu for a drink later."
Ping'er's face turned red, he took a step back and said with a smile: "Going to Dongfu to have a drink? Hasn't Mr. Zhen from Dongfu been ill these past two days? Why did you invite me to drink?"
"Brother Zhen is sick? I don't know about that..." Jia Shan opened the door and entered the house. She took off her coat and said with a smile, "I'm leaving the clan school. Some of my classmates are very reluctant to leave. I must
It’s hard for me to refuse to get together.”
"Oh..."
Ping'er nodded, went to the inner room and took out a set of clothes for Jia Shan that had just been dried today, and then took the clothes that Jia Shan changed into today to go back and wash them. Suddenly, Ping'er smiled and said: "Third Master? Look
What is this?"
"What?"
Jia Shan turned around and looked around. A thin, long hair was held in Ping'er's hand. Jia Shan said speechlessly: "Is a hair worth making a fuss about?"
Ping'er shook his head and smiled: "Third Master, this doesn't look like your hair. It looks a bit like...a girl's!"
"That's yours!"
"It doesn't look like mine..." Ping'er looked at her hair and studied it carefully.
Jia Shan had already changed her clothes, straightened her clothes a little and said with a smile: "Don't make such a fuss here. Who knows how it got blown on you? Go back quickly, I'm going over there."
"Drink less, there is no one to serve you here at night..."
"Know..."
……
But when Jia Shan changed her clothes and came all the way to Ning Mansion, the sky was getting dark and the lanterns were starting to turn on.
Jia Qiang has already been waiting at the door.
"Hey, Third Uncle, you are finally here. I have to go over to pick you up again."
Jia Shan nodded silently. As the saying goes: being courteous for nothing is either cheating or stealing. Seeing Jia Qiang's humble appearance, she felt a little impatient again.
It can’t really be the Hongmen Banquet, right?
"Uncle Third, let's go, everyone is waiting inside."
"It's easy to tell, who is there?"
"Hey, nephew, please be nice first, and you will know when my third uncle arrives soon."
Suddenly, the two of them arrived at the small flower hall in the southwest corner of Huifang Garden. As expected, they were already there.
It's Jia Rong, Jia Rui.
For a moment, Jia Shan seemed to understand something.
A bit of a routine!
Is love really preparing for the Hongmen Banquet?
Are you planning to let Jia Rui take care of him?
"Hey, Brother Shan is here? Please sit down, please sit down..." Jia Rui stood up and greeted him with a smile, seeming to have completely forgotten the previous unhappiness.
"Third uncle, there really was a misunderstanding a few days ago. My nephew is here to be a host. We are all one family. We have turned our hostility into friendship. Third uncle, please take a seat." Jia Rong also stepped forward to show his hospitality to Jia Shan.
.
"Brother Shan, please do it first as a courtesy..." Jia Rui raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
For a moment, Jia Shan was a little confused again. Judging from Jia Rui's appearance, he didn't look like he was here to seek revenge?
"Uncle Third, want to drink?"
"Okay." Jia Shan picked up the wine glass and asked with a smile: "I heard yesterday that Brother Zhen has been ill these days? He didn't come to visit, so he had to drink wine first."
Jia Rong took a sip of wine and laughed and said: "It's okay, it's no big deal anymore. Let's just have wine. The master thinks I'm careless and careless. My wife is serving me there in a disheveled way, doing her filial piety for me."
."
Waiting without clothes...
"Uncle Third, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Jia Shan put down the wine glass and said with a smile: "I thought that since I'm here, it seems a little inappropriate not to visit Brother Zhen. How about this, go and visit first, say a few words, and then we can eat and drink without worry.
, isn’t it beautiful?”
"This... okay."
Looking at Jia Shan's frightened look, she would not dare to eat or drink here without Jia Zhen's permission, not to mention that she would have to gamble later.
Jia Rong stood up and said with a smile: "Third uncle, please come with me. Yesterday, I thought it was too boring in the front yard, so I moved into Tianxiang Building, just around the corner."
Jia Shan smiled and said: "I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to go rashly. How about you go and ask Brother Zhen if it's convenient first, and then I go?"
Jia Rong thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, I might as well go over and ask for instructions first."
