Chapter 427 Jia Lian: Everyday people, people, why are you not in harmony
Chapter 427 Jia Lian: Tiantian Renjia, why don’t you go with me?
Ningguo Mansion
Jia Heng returned to the inner hall, and across a pear wood, glazed, and hibiscus screen, he could hear several people in the room playing dominoes and chatting and laughing.
After thinking about it, I thought that if I had time, I might invent mahjong and let Keqing and the others play it on a regular basis.
In this era, entertainment methods are scarce.
Entering the hall, he raised his eyes and saw that it was Sister Feng, a regular poker friend. She was served by Ping'er and other maids, and there was another one, which surprised Jia Heng.
Wearing a plain blue dress with white plum folding leaves, simple makeup, elegant and elegant, sitting next to Sister Yu Feng, looking at the cards, it was Li Wan.
Qin Keqing turned around and saw Jia Heng, letting Baozhu sit on the card table and playing for him. He came closer and asked softly: "Husband, has Sister Xue gone back?"
Jia Heng nodded, sat down on the armchair beside him, and said, "I just sent it back. I came here to talk about Wenlong. My aunt told me to go to Lixiangyuan to sit there in the next two days."
Sister Feng played out one of the cards in her hand, turned around with her gorgeous oval face, and asked: "Brother Heng, Wen Long will be leaving in a few days, right?"
Jia Heng took the peeled orange handed over by Qin Keqing, broke it in half, tore off the stem of the orange, put it on a small plate aside, ate a small piece, and said: "What aunt means, after thinking about the first month, so
It’s okay if the injury hasn’t healed yet.”
Sanjie You looked at the card in her hand and found a pair with the other card. Her red lips parted slightly and she said: "After the first lunar month, I can't wait to celebrate the Qingming Festival again. After the Qingming Festival, I'm looking forward to the Dragon Boat Festival."
"It's also pity for the hearts of parents all over the world." Sister Feng took a card, wiped the points in her hand, and sighed with emotion. Then she looked at the young man. There was a bit of a smile in Danfeng's eyes and said, "By the way, let's touch it today."
When the master saw me coming, he asked me to bring a message to Brother Heng. Judge Fu Tong from the Jingzhao Yamen would like to see Brother Heng. I wonder when Brother Heng will be free?"
Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "After the fifteenth, I'm afraid it will be even busier. The fifteenth is better. Just ask him to come over in the afternoon the day after tomorrow."
Fu Shi was a disciple of Jia Zheng, and he had been through his path in the beginning, and later he worked diligently with the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities.
During the Chinese New Year, a new year gift was also given.
Sister Feng smiled, played a domino, and said: "That will be the day after tomorrow. I will send someone back to you tomorrow. This Fu Shi has also done a lot of things for the government in the past few years."
Just as he was talking, he suddenly saw Jia Heng's eyes suddenly becoming sharper. Sister Feng's heart skipped a beat, her face turned pale, and she paused with the dominoes in her hands. Her slender legs in her skirt couldn't help but close together, and she hurriedly smiled and said: "It's not the illegal thing Brother Heng thought.
Things like this, our family is a philanthropic family, and such things will never happen."
Now that the treasury of the Xifu is full, there is no need for her to move around to fight the famine. After all, it is too immoral to make usury.
She was allowed to live in the house but still has nothing to do, so is she being punished for this?
Jia Heng's eyes only became sharp for a moment, and he whispered: "That's good."
He was worried about Sister Feng, thinking that now Jinyi Mansion and the five-city army and horse department are all under the control of the Jia family, and they will become more courageous and return to their old ways. If you don't obey me, don't blame me for being cruel (Kunming dialect)
.
Sister Feng was suddenly hit, and her heart felt strange. Then she felt a little aggrieved, and she bit her lip.
Qin Keqing took the orange petal from Jia Heng and asked with a smile: "Husband, during the Lantern Festival the day after tomorrow, will you watch the fireworks at Tianxiang Tower or at Rongqing Hall?"
Jia Heng thought for a while and said: "Let's go to Tianxiang Tower. The view over there is wide. There is a river in Huifang Garden. Sister Yun and the third sister can also put out lanterns and so on."
Qin Keqing responded and said with a smile: "That's pretty good."
Sister Feng collected her thoughts at this moment and asked with a smile: "Brother Heng, we were talking about repairing the garden the day before yesterday. I wonder how the discussion with the second master went."
Jia Heng said: "It was a mess the past few days. I haven't told the master yet. When I meet Fu Shi the day after tomorrow, I will see what the regulations are when I meet the master."
The Grand View Garden would be useless if it were not repaired. Sichun, Chaidai, and the other girls were getting older, and it was not a problem for men like Baoyu to visit the house randomly every day.
When Sister Feng heard this, she said happily: "I think so too. Money in your hands will not produce silver."
Li Wan smiled and joked: "Now everyone in the house knows that you have a lot of money."
Grandma Zhu smiled, and there was an indescribable sadness on her unpainted face.
Second Sister You also raised her eyes and glanced at the fairy concubine with willow leaves and slender eyebrows, with a bit of admiration in her eyes, and said: "I heard that the second grandma got gold and silver in her hands like running water, even if she left a little bit of it,
, it is enough to provide food and clothing for an ordinary family like ours for seven or eight years."
In the original work, Jin Chai, who plotted against Sister Feng and died by swallowing gold, suddenly said something to Jia Heng's ears, which was a bit scary.
Just looking at the deep love between the two best friends, the smiles and deep eyes, he changed the fate of many people whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Sister Feng pinched the back of Sister You's hand and joked: "What my sister said, no matter how rich you are, how rich is your uncle?"
When Second Sister You heard this, she felt ashamed, her cheeks were red with embarrassment, and there was a bit of embarrassment between her beautiful eyebrows. She whispered: "Second Sister Lian...you are joking."
Even her eldest brother, no one even looked at her.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the calm young man from the corner of his eye, and saw that he seemed to be staring at him closely. His heart trembled, and he quickly picked up the dominoes and played out one at random.
Jia Heng turned to Li Wan and asked, "Brother Lan, have you finished your homework during the holidays?"
Li Wan suppressed the smile on his face and said softly: "Brother Lang finished it years ago, and now he studies two words every day."
Jia Heng nodded. Although he felt that Li Wan was too "chicken boy", he said before that he didn't know if he could change things.
Jia Heng sat there for a while and finished eating the oranges. He didn't stay too long and let the women play around, then headed towards the study.
At Haishi, several women played for a while and gradually dispersed.
But it was said that Sister Feng left Ningguo Mansion and led Ping'er and other maids all the way to the backyard. Suddenly she saw the lights in the wing were on and a figure wearing a square scarf was reflected in the window. She felt happy and knew that it was Jia Lian.
Taking the handkerchief, he entered the wing and saw Jia Lian.
"Look, whose young master this is, why did he go to the wrong door and come to my room?" Sister Feng Danfeng's eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and she sat down.
"Didn't you ask me to come back?" Jia Lian was cracking melon seeds and looking at a picture album. Judging from the light, it was a picture that made people blush.
If the old lady hadn't urged him the day before yesterday, he wouldn't have wanted to come back. Isn't it better to be a groom outside every night than facing the king of hell and yaksha?
Thinking of this, he glanced at Sister Feng, frowned, put down the melon seeds, and asked: "You are still telling me, where did you come back from?"
When she saw Jia Lian's expression, Sister Feng's heart was filled with anger. This man actually talked to him like this. This was something that never happened in the past.
Hey Lian Er, are your wings stiff?
Sister Feng snorted coldly: "I'm going to sit with Brother Heng's daughter-in-law for a while, but you won't be home for a few days, and when you come back, you'll show off your face to others."
Sister Feng took the melon seeds in her delicate hands and turned her head.
Jia Lian said: "I go to Dongfu every day. You might as well stay there and not come back."
When Sister Feng heard this, her heart skipped a beat, her face darkened, her eyebrows stood up, and she said angrily: "It's so late at night, what are you talking about!"
Ping'er hurriedly advised: "Grandma, it's a quiet night, now it's noisy for others to listen."
Jia Lian glanced at Ping'er and saw his picturesque features and charming temperament, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
If the tigress in front of me is half as gentle and lovely as Ping'er, why would he be like this?
Thinking of this, I felt a little unmotivated. I didn't want to continue arguing with Sister Feng. I closed the album more or less, picked up the tea cup, and said: "Well, I don't want to argue with you either. I've been busy with business outside recently."
."
Sister Feng saw that Jia Lian's tone was "submissive", so she snorted lightly, sat on the table opposite the waiter, and said, "What kind of business is this?"
Jia Lian said: "Some business. By the way, this is two hundred taels of silver. Last time, I withdrew two hundred taels from you from the public. You can use it to balance the accounts."
As the saying goes, money is a man's courage. Now that Jia Lian has money, his waist has become stronger.
Sister Feng took the banknote, twisted it, frowned, and said, "Where did you get the money?"
Jia Lian smiled and said: "You think I am busy outside and not home every day, just looking for flowers and willows?"
"Is not it?"
Jia Lian: "..."
Sister Feng frowned, put away the banknote, handed it to Ping'er beside her, and said: "Ping'er, keep it first and settle the account tomorrow."
Ping'er responded and put the banknote away.
Sister Feng ridiculed: "You have become more and more active recently. You have always taken money from home, but now you can see the money coming back."
Jia Lian said: "If you hadn't stopped me every day, I would have accumulated tens of thousands of dollars."
"Hey, I said you were fat and you were out of breath." Sister Feng raised her pink lips and raised her eyebrows, mockingly.
At this time, Ping'er was carrying a basin of water and a towel, serving Sister Feng to wash her feet.
Jia Lian took one look at the little feet as white as jade in the copper basin, and with the illustration just now, his heart felt a little hot. Before Ping'er could leave, he came over and hugged Sister Feng.
Sister Feng pushed and said angrily: "I'm not feeling very well these days."
Jia Lian frowned and murmured something bad. His peach-blossom eyes stared at Ping'er who was busy in front of the dressing table. Seeing his waist and buttocks, she whispered: "Let Ping'er accompany me."
Sister Feng's face changed slightly and she said angrily: "My thoughts have blinded you!"
When Jia Lian heard this, he felt a little unhappy. He curled his lips and ignored Sister Feng. While pouring tea for himself, he asked casually: "Yesterday, I heard something happened to Baoyu? You made the master so angry."
Qing, what exactly is this?"
Sister Feng said: "Baoyu is quite old. He was teasing Jin Chuan'er in his wife's room. His wife happened to see him and slapped Jin Chuan. It turned out that Jin Chuan was a fierce one and he couldn't stand the humiliation and jumped into the well...
Later, the Chief Historian of Prince Zhongshun said that an actor was missing, and Brother Hebao..."
After telling what happened in a few words, Sister Feng suddenly said angrily: "Oh, I just saw now that you brothers are really bad melons grown on the same vine. They are all lustful and unscrupulous."
At the end, thinking of Jia Lian's misdeeds, especially his masculine behavior, Sister Feng felt disgusted again.
Jia Lian said: "No one in the mansion is like this. I see that the one from Dongfu is pretty much the same, and there are a pair of sisters beside him."
Sister Feng sarcastically said: "You are like others, but you can still compare with them."
Jia Lian was a little irritated by Sister Feng's contemptuous attitude, and subconsciously choked: "Tiantian, why don't you go with me?"
Sister Feng cursed, "It's nonsense again."
The couple bickered, and the night gradually deepened.
Jinyang Princess Mansion
In the attic in the backyard, on top of the bronze crane, red candles had already been lit, as bright as the clouds and as bright as day.
Li Chanyue and Princess Xianning, one wearing a pink skirt and the other wearing a green skirt, were sitting in the hall, drinking tea and talking.
Li Chanyue asked Lianxue on the side, "Where is my mother?"
Lianxue waited respectfully at the side and said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is taking a bath at the moment. If the princess is hungry, she can pass on the dinner to Her Royal Highness Xianning first."
Li Chanyue twisted her eyebrows and pursed her pink lips. For some reason, she felt faintly uncomfortable in her heart. She said softly, "I'm going to talk to my mother for a while. Sister Nanyang talked a lot to me today."
Lianxue hurriedly said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is taking a bath at the moment. It will not be too late to meet you after the bath, Princess."
At this time, Her Royal Highness the Princess is delicate and frail, as soft as a silkworm. She even needs two maids to serve her before she can bathe. Where can I see the little princess?
Thinking about what I had seen before, I felt a little embarrassed. The two of them were really capable of tossing the bed sheets out of the water.
"It's okay, I just want to say a few words through the screen." Li Chanyue caught the strange look on Lianxue's eyebrows and eyes, and felt suspicious. After saying that, she got up and left the small hall, heading to the side room where the eldest princess usually bathed.
And go.
Seeing this, Lianxue felt anxious and could only go with Qinghe Princess Li Chanyue.
Princess Xianning was left behind in the same place. After all, there were frequent visits between relatives and the relationship was close, so there was no doubt that she was being left out.
Princess Xianning sat for a while, sipping a few cups of fragrant tea, waiting for dinner to be passed around. Her face looked somewhat bored, and she asked the female official beside her, "Aunt, have you brought any new dialect books from Hanmo Studio recently?"
The female officer said respectfully: "The day before yesterday, Master Jia passed by the house and sent the review of the Three Kingdoms. Your Highness the Princess has been reading it in the past two days."
The day before yesterday, Jia Heng had hand-copied a copy of the subsequent Three Kingdoms script and sent it to the eldest princess of Jinyang. Of course, he also asked Li Chanyue to take it to Princess Xianning when she entered the palace, as she had agreed with Princess Xianning before.
When Princess Xianning heard this, surprise appeared on her face, her phoenix eyes sparkled, and she could not hide the joy in her voice as she said, "I will go upstairs to look for you."
After saying that, she stood up. This Princess of Xianning, who was nearly twenty-nine years old, had a slim figure and a cool and bright temperament. She stood up, but she was a head taller than the female official next to her.
With this thought in mind, I climbed up the stairs to the second floor, walked around a partition screen, and planned to head towards the bookshelf, but for a moment, a strange smell seemed to float under my nose.
In fact, Lianxue had already taken care of the funeral. She not only changed the bed sheets and bedding, but also lit incense in the animal cage, freshened the room, and opened the windows in all directions for ventilation.
But Princess Xianning has a keen talent that is inferior to ordinary people, and she is relatively sensitive to smells.
This is because his mother, Concubine Duanrong, besides loving to dance, also likes to plant various flowers. She often meets with the female officials of Shang Pharmacy and often asks for advice on how to make spices.
Princess Xianning's beautiful eyebrows were condensed, and there was a hint of suspicion on her face. She couldn't help but lift the curtain and enter the wing room. The smell became stronger and stronger under the cover of musk.
Suddenly, the girl paused slightly and bent down. She clearly found clues on the wool carpet not far from the bed. A look of surprise flashed through her beautiful eyes. She took out a handkerchief from the sleeve of her skirt and folded it on the wool carpet.
, and suddenly a mark appeared on the white handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers.
"The smell is fishy and fishy, so this is it."
It was also when Jia Heng fucked the eldest princess of Jinyang that he didn't pay attention and didn't clean it up thoroughly.
Princess Xianning frowned, her cold jade face showed doubts, her narrow phoenix eyes stared at the traces on the handkerchief, and she was puzzled for a moment, so she put it under Qiong's nose and sniffed it.
I just felt a "boom" in my mind...
I don't know why, but for a moment, my heart was beating so hard, my mouth was dry, my face was as cold as jade, and it was as gorgeous as clouds, and it was so beautiful.
She was speechless for a long time, only the candlelight projected the tall, slender girl's figure on the screen.
At this moment, a voice called from below, "Your Highness Xianning."
Princess Xianning suddenly came to her senses, quickly stuffed the handkerchief into her armhole, raised her narrow and cold phoenix eyes, and walked towards the red sandalwood carved phoenix writing case. She saw a stack of manuscripts, pressed with an inkstone, and stepped forward to take it.
He got up and went down to the attic.
At this time, Qinghe Princess Li Chanyue and Lianxue also entered the small hall, and the crane-shaped palace lanterns were lit one after another under the square beams, dancing with glowing candlelight.
"Sister Chanyue, where is my aunt?" Princess Xianning asked in a clear voice.
Li Chanyue said sadly: "Mom, she said she wasn't feeling well today, so she asked us to have some food first."
I just went to see my mother, but I didn't find anything unusual.
Princess Xianning nodded and said, "Aunt, have you invited a doctor?"
Lianxue said: "The princess is fine. She didn't sleep well last night."
Li Chanyue looked at the manuscript in Princess Xianning's hand and asked curiously: "Sister Xianning, what is this?"
Princess Xianning said: "I am reading Mr. Jia's Three Kingdoms version right now."
"This was delivered here a while ago." Li Chanyue said, just listening to Mr. Jia, feeling a little irritable for no reason.
