After leaving the guest hospital, Jia Qiang sent someone to invite the imperial doctor who was still staying at Yanyuan Yamen and had not returned to Beijing.

Because he was generous and gave him a generous red envelope of silver, the two imperial doctors were more considerate and would not refuse him.

After sending someone to invite him, Jia Qiang did not stay here longer, but went to see Chen Rong, the imperial censor who is now in charge of the Yanyuan Yamen.

After the two discussed for an hour, Jia Qiang left and returned to the inner house.

"Ah! I'm back!"

Hearing the footsteps, Xiangling looked back and saw Jia Qiang coming in, and immediately shouted happily.

Jia Qiang's eyes paused at the seductive curves of her body, then looked at her and smiled: "Why are you washing clothes again? Why don't you just leave it to Aunt Huanxi to wash?"

Xiangling was charming and pretty, with innocent eyes, and said with a smile: "These are the clothes inside, including my master's, sister Xiaojing's, and mine! After the heating is installed in the house, washing clothes in winter is no longer a problem.

I’ve suffered so much that I can’t even use the fumigation cage or the soup potion.”

In this era, ordinary Yangzhou people kept warm by filling copper basins with wheat bran, lighting them half-burning and half-unburning, covering them and letting them soak to keep warm. Of course, they would not be very warm.

Wealthy people use smoked cages and soup pots. The soup pots are naturally easy to relieve, just like hot water bottles.

As for the incense cage, it is a flat cage that contains incense and can hold silver frost charcoal. It is fragrant and warm when lit.

However, the cost is too high and it is not as good as a constant temperature heater.

Jia Qiang nodded and asked, "Is your mother okay?"

Xiangling pouted, but then she smiled and said: "Although he was ill, the doctor said after looking at it, it was a good thing. It dissipated the evil and gloomy energy in his stomach, and he will be fine after he recovers."

Thanks to Miss Lin for helping me. Miss Lin is so nice. I asked Mother Wu to help me... Do you want to change clothes when you come back? Hey, do you want to wear this?"

Xiangling asked in surprise when she saw Jia Qiang coming out with the lynx leather crane cloak with snow fox trim and green and red twisted gold that she brought from the capital.

This cloak was originally given by Wang Xifeng when she wanted to bribe him to get the secret recipe for barbecue from him.

There is no secret recipe, but given Feng Yatou's strong temper, there is no reason to take back what she has given away.

This luxurious cloak was originally prepared by her for her brother Wang Ren. It is very luxurious.

When it fell into Jia Qiang's hands, he had no intention of wearing it, but there was a big event tonight and he had to wear it.

Xiangling quickly wiped her hands and helped Jia Qiang put on her cloak and tie her brocade belt. After she was dressed properly, she looked at her again and was startled. She laughed softly: "Master, you are so handsome..."

As the saying goes: People rely on clothes, Buddha relies on gold.

In the past, Jia Qiang dressed plainly, often wearing a moon-white Confucian shirt, and at most she would wear light cyan.

It’s not that it doesn’t look good, it’s just that wearing it this way better reflects Jia Qiang’s character.

But the current outfit, gorgeous and luxurious, with bright colors, can better reflect Jia Qiang's romantic beauty.

Seeing Xiang Ling looking at him infatuatedly, Jia Qiang chuckled and said, "I'll come back to you tonight to reward you."

"oops!"

Although there were only two people in the room, Xiangling's face turned pale with embarrassment when she suddenly heard the words of tiger and wolf.

The originally innocent almond eyes had a charm that only a female driver could have.

I'm almost being taught a lesson...

There is a cinnabar mole on the center of the eyebrow, and the corners of the mouth are shy and angry, but they are well-behaved and never refuse.

Jia Qiang decided to go out and do business first, otherwise she would not be able to go out today...

It's not that he's lustful, it's just that Xiangling is too obedient...

…

"Brother Qiang? You stand!"

As soon as she came out of Zhonglin Hall, Jia Qiang was ready to go out to do some errands. However, before she could walk out of the mountain corridor, she heard a shout from behind.

He looked back and saw Daiyu standing not far away under the entrance hall of Zhonglin Hall, looking at him with a thin smile.

It's also a coincidence that Jia Qiang has just put on a new fur today, so Daiyu also wears new clothes today.

She was seen wearing a silver fox light red feather gauze veil, underneath was a moon satin embroidered magnolia flying butterfly dress, Liuyun had a gilt jasper hairpin inlaid with jewels on her temples.

It seems that the fairy from the Moon Palace has fallen into the mortal world. Those starry eyes are full of emotion, beautiful and moving. How can they be seen in the human world?

Seeing Jia Qiang slowly walking towards her, her eyes twinkled.

When she first met Jia Qiang, Jia Qiang had already left the Ning Mansion. Although she had also lost a lot of money, her food and clothing expenses could not be compared with Jia Baoyu or even Jia Huan and Jia Lan.

It's not that he can't afford it, it's that he never thought of spending money on food and clothing.

Therefore, Jia Qiang's image in Daiyu's eyes has always been that of a scholar.

However, now, Jia Qiang is wearing the snow fox trimmed blue and red twisted gold lynx leather crane cloak. She is tall and slender, with eyes like bright stars, a face like a crown of jade, and a bookish air between her brows and eyes, but her whole person is like rising from the east.

The rising sun is full of vitality.

Both civil and military!

Isn’t this the ideal son-in-law model for the girl in the boudoir...

Jia Qiang came from the Chuanshan verandah. After the two looked at each other for a while, Daiyu laughed softly and said, "How come I haven't seen you wearing this outfit before?"

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "My second aunt gave it to me before I came here, so that I could give it to Lian Er in case of trouble. I don't like to wear it on weekdays, it's too heavy. Isn't it getting cold now, so I took it out to keep out the cold."

When Daiyu heard this, she smiled and said, "Brother Qiang, you are playing tricks on me again. Do you think I believe you?"

She also figured out some of Jia Qiang's temperament. She was the most intolerant of wearing such luxurious clothes. In his words, she was the same as the golden pheasant.

How could it have changed now? Something must have happened.

Jia Qiang smiled and said nothing, but Daiyu looked at him angrily, but did not go into details, but said: "I heard from Xiang Ling that these days you go out early and come back late, and you don't come back until dawn in the middle of the night?"

Although I didn't ask anything, it was almost the same.

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "Thank you Aunt Lin for your concern. I will definitely go home on time from now on."

"That's it?"

Daiyuyan frowned, obviously dissatisfied.

It's not that she's meddlesome, she's not a meddlesome person either.

But in the environment where she grew up, even if she was pampered at home like Jia Baoyu, she would never dare to stay out at night.

And Jia Lian, unless he is away on official business, it is impossible.

Because if you are a serious young master, you can go out to socialize, but if you want to sleep outside, you will pretend that there are no rules in the house?

How can it be so arbitrary...

Jia Lian is now on official business in Yangzhou Mansion and has reached adulthood. After learning from Jia Qiang about the virtues of the men in Jia Mansion, Lin Ruhai had no energy or mind to pay attention to it.

Daiyu naturally had nothing to say...

But Jia Qiang is different. Despite his family ties, he is still Lin Ruhai's disciple.

Based on this, Daiyu can also be vigilant and alert to him and not to go astray.

Jia Qiang looked at her dissatisfied eyes and knew this. After thinking about it, she said with a smile: "Aunt Lin, you have been busy these days and are doing serious things."

Daiyu is also serious: "You said that gold and silver are just for use, but not greedy. Otherwise, it would not be people who use gold and silver, but people will become the puppets of gold and silver. You can't even remember this.

What?"

Hearing this, Jia Qiang saw that she remembered everything he had said before, a warm color flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "I am helping my aunt-in-law. He is not in good health. If he forces his sick body to do official work, his body and bones will be damaged."

I can't stand it. I'm still young, so it won't matter if I stay up a few nights."

When Daiyu heard this, she was immediately moved and looked blankly at Jia Qiang, who was one step away from her.

he……

But Jia Qiang suddenly smiled proudly and said: "Don't be too moved, my great-uncle is not only your father, but also my husband. After returning to Beijing, I still hope to hold his lap and enjoy the shade under his big tree.

How can I bear to let him suffer so much that his body and bones are broken in this little Yangzhou mansion?"

Daiyu came back to her senses, and after hearing what he said, she snorted angrily, but this cold snort could not be cooled down no matter what.

The sound was like gold beads falling on a jade plate, but it could not conceal the touching emotion in his voice.

Her life experience made her particularly moved by Jia Qiang's actions.

In fact, Daiyu, like Wang Xifeng, was raised as a boy by her parents since she was a child.

But judging from the results, Sister Feng is an extensive free-range breeder, so she has never even read a book.

Daiyu was different. When she was a little older, she hired a Jinshi from Kejia as her first teacher.

In The Red Mansion, there is only one man who wishes he could have been born a girl, and that is Jia Baoyu.

Unfortunately, there are many people who cannot be born into men.

Tanchun wished he could be born as a man, so that he could clear away Shen Ke from the Jia family and revitalize the Rongguo.

Wang Xifeng wished she could have been born a boy because she wanted to taste power.

And in Daiyu's heart, why doesn't she want to become the pillar of the family, share her father's worries, and carry on the legacy of the Lin family?
