Chapter 162: The father-in-law, summoned by Emperor Mingkang
Latest website:
In the Duke Rong's Mansion, in a conservatory in the west courtyard.
Daiyu was unpacking her box, the handkerchief in her hand was put aside, her little mouths were pressed together, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, there was a trace of hope in her loving eyes, but she was still complaining about someone in her heart.
A bad guy, he came up with this idea out of thin air and made her nervous.
As soon as I pulled the red rope, I heard the boys outside the door shouting: "Uncle Jia Qi is here!"
After hearing this, everyone in the room couldn't help but disperse from the table, stood up and looked towards the door. Not long after, they saw a man in a scarlet robe walking in. Who else could it be if it wasn't Jia Qi?
.
Everyone bowed in greeting, and Jia Qi smiled and waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to do so.
"How's it going? Have you finished unpacking everything? Are you satisfied with everything I prepared?"
After Jia Qi came to the room, he scanned around and saw that everyone was there, so he asked with a smile.
Hearing what Jia Qi said, everyone seemed to have opened up their chat boxes. They started talking one by one. Xichun even ran over and sweetly shouted, "Brother~"
Seeing Xiao Xichun, Jia Qi asked with a smile: "You are feeling so good. I wanted to see you a few days ago, but I didn't get around to it~"
Xichun didn't hesitate and nodded, "It's already done! Sister Lin and the others are organizing a poetry meeting today. I have nothing to do, so I came over!"
Jia Qi gently tapped Xichun's forehead and said with a smile: "It's really good to go out for a walk more often when you have nothing to do! When the weather gets warmer in the future, you can also go to my place to play~"
Xichun frowned and nodded with a smile.
Then Jia Qi saw an unopened box in front of Daiyu and asked, "Hasn't Sister Lin opened it yet?"
Daiyu rolled her eyes and said sweetly: "Brother Xin came just in time, I was just about to dismantle it! Brother came here~"
Seeing Daiyu's little appearance, Sister Feng didn't hold back and burst out laughing. She thought that Daiyu and Baoyu were very different before, but it turned out that the problem arose here.
Everyone saw Sister Feng smiling and couldn't help but look over. Sister Feng's heart changed and she said with a smile: "It's okay, I just remembered a joke! I couldn't hold it back for a while and made everyone laugh~"
When Baoyu heard this, he was a little surprised. What kind of allusion was this? Why hadn't he heard of it?
"Second sister-in-law, tell me?"
Others are also interested. They have been in the back house all year round. They don't have any entertainment projects. They just get together to tell some jokes. Sister Feng is one of them. Most of her jokes are very interesting.
.
So Xiangyun said again: "Sister-in-law Feng, tell me quickly, what allusion did you think of again?"
In this rush, although Wang Xifeng was a good person, he couldn't think of any good jokes, so he had to say, "That joke is a bit vulgar. I'm afraid it will be insulting if I tell it. Brother Xing is a Marquis, so I'm afraid he will laugh at me if I tell it."
Here~"
Seeing that Wang Xifeng was directing the conversation to himself, Jia Qi smiled and said, "It's just a joke. It's suitable for both refined and popular tastes. It doesn't matter~"
When everyone heard Jia Qi's words, they couldn't help but urge Sister Feng to tell the joke. After all this, Sister Feng really thought of one.
So Wang Xifeng cleared her throat and said with a smile on her lips: "That was agreed in advance. You can't annoy me. I haven't read a book, so all I can say are jokes that are not polite.
words ~"
When the girls heard this, they didn't take it seriously and nodded with a smile. Although Sister Feng has not read a book, she speaks very artistically. She is no worse than those who have read a book in the back house, and is even better.
Woolen cloth!
Then Wang Xifeng said: "Speaking of this, this is a couple. One day, they went back to their parents' home and saw their father-in-law and mother-in-law. The two parents were very happy, so they left their daughter and son-in-law to have a meal. However, when the couple came home, the son-in-law didn't look too good.
Well, looking worried, the lady asked, "You were fine when you came here, but why did you become like this after a meal!" What do you think the husband said?"
Sister Feng was very good at speaking, and she attracted everyone's attention with just a few words.
Xiangyun couldn't help but said: "Could it be that he made a drunken mistake and complained to his father-in-law~"
Baoyu also answered, "No, I guess it was the father-in-law who saw that his daughter's color was not good and scolded the husband. Why is it that he is not able to have children and raise children in daily life, and he ended up like this~"
Xichun thought for a while, but didn't come up with a reason. He just looked back at Jia Qi and shook his arm. Jia Qi also shook his head. This kind of joke should be unexpected, otherwise it would not be regarded as a joke.
What a joke.
Wang Xifeng did not hang around and continued: "The husband said this, 'I may have offended my father-in-law during lunch, and I was still very nervous.' The wife was confused and asked: What happened?
What happened? The husband said: "It was a coincidence that I choked on the fragrant rice cooked by my mother-in-law today. At that time, he was still saying an idiom to his father-in-law, "It's the dog who relies on the power of others," but he only said the first three words.
The last one had rice stuck in his throat. Of course, his father-in-law was not happy, so he asked: "Are you talking about me?" By coincidence, as soon as the rice went down, the husband said
The last word!"
Hearing this, the quick-reacting person had already come to his senses and couldn't help laughing. Baoyu was a little confused, but before he could figure it out, Xiangyun on the side explained to Baoyu: "Brother love, what are the first three words of dog-power?"
?』
Baoyu took advantage of the situation and said: "A dog fights a man!"
Then he realized something was wrong and repeated the change, "A dog fights a man, a dog's father-in-law~~"
Seeing that Baoyu had understood, Xiangyun said again: "What's the last word of dog's power?"
Baoyu took advantage of the situation and replied: "Of course it's "momentum"!"
"Potential" is the same as "Yes".
At this thought, Baoyu couldn't help laughing, and secretly thought, Sister Feng is really a narrow-minded ghost, and she can even think of such a joke.
After Daiyu on the side stopped laughing, she looked at Jia Qi again, only to find that he was looking at her. Remembering that Jia Qi had said to her before that the engagement should be decided by others, she couldn't help but flushed with shame, and quickly put it aside.
He looked away, dodging, not daring to look again.
After everyone stopped laughing, Dai Yu opened the box again. The green box contained a writing brush, but this writing brush was different from ordinary writing brushes. The pen barrel was crystal clear and was polished from a piece of ice jade.
It is small and exquisite, the tip of the pen is bright yellow and shiny, the waist is thick, and the root is slightly thinner, but it is a wolf-hair pen.
Daiyu has been enlightened since she was a child and knows that there are many categories of writing brushes, such as wolf hair, sheep hair, etc., but the one in her hand is the best one she has ever seen. Compared with that hairpin ring, this one is
The gift suits her better.
After receiving the gift, Daiyu stood up and came over to express her thanks to Jia Chun.
Everyone was surprised when they saw this brush. To be honest, they had never thought that a brush could be so beautiful and delicate. Holding Daiyu in her hand, it added a third of fairy spirit, making it even more expressive.
.
Then came Xichun, who opened a pair of earrings. The drop-shaped earrings can reflect colorful lights in the sun. The most amazing thing is that there are two small words in the pendant, one is peace and the other is joy. Xichun is also full of joy.
.
Baoyu opened a jade fracture fan with pictures of beauties on the fan. Naturally, he couldn't help but express his gratitude.
Later, Tanchun and Yingchun, the two sisters, Tanchun opened the inkstone. The inkstone end was made of stone, purple, and shaped according to the material. The inkstone was carved into a melon, with fat leaves covering the edge of the inkstone, and there were spots on the leaves.
The base of the melon is carved with an inkstone. The back of the inkstone is inscribed in seal script with the inscription "Wei Pi Gua Lv, chanting endlessly, deeply rooted in the year of Wansi." The last inkstone is signed in regular script with "Wansi Tongming". Just by looking at its shape, you can know its value.
Not cheap.
Yingchun got two unique chess books, and she was secretly happy. This kind of thing is a hard-to-find treasure for anyone who loves to play chess. She has loved to ponder these things since she was a child. She is very excited about this gift.
Couldn't like it more.
Then the two of them came over to thank him.
Later, Li Wan got the red gold agate bracelet and was envied by everyone. The girl's family had no resistance to this extremely exquisite thing.
In the end, there was a dark box left for Sister Feng, and Sister Feng didn't mind it. After passing the previous ones, everyone already knew that the things in this box were not ordinary goods, and they were full of expectations for the last box.
"Today, along with the girls, I have also benefited from Mr. Hou, so I would like to thank Mr. Hou first~"
When the box was brought over, Sister Feng did not open it directly. Instead, she went to Jia Qi to say thank you. Everyone on the side could not help but joke with her: "Second sister-in-law still knows this. If you get something good, you still have to ask for it."
Let’s make a table~”
Sister Feng rolled her eyes and replied with a smile: "Sure, don't come when I invite you. If you don't come, my table of good wine and good food will be in vain, and it will all go into the belly of my poor family~"
Hearing this, everyone laughed again.
Then Sister Feng began to open the box. This was the last one. Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look over. After Sister Feng opened the box, she found that there was nothing in the box, only a piece of paper. She couldn't help but be startled, secretly thinking, could it be this person?
Mr. Hou made a mistake?
But then she thought again about what Jia Lan had taken at the beginning, and she suddenly had a guess in her mind. She took the small piece of paper in her hand, turned it over, and her eyes suddenly lit up. As expected, it turned out that
It's a banknote.
When she looked carefully at the denomination on it, her heart trembled, and she couldn't help but be so happy that she almost pulled her mouth to the base of her ears, and then she was about to stuff it into her sleeves!
Looking at everyone's gaze, she pretended to be calm and said, "Nothing, just a five hundred tael banknote~"
When everyone heard this, they were startled. This thing had appeared once before, and they had no doubts. Daiyu and Baochai glanced at Sister Feng. Baochai knew that Sister Feng was the housekeeper, and she dealt with a lot of money on weekdays.
Five hundred taels of silver notes, she shouldn't be so happy, but what Daiyu noticed was the smile on the corner of Jia Qi's mouth, guessing that the silver note might not be five hundred taels.
Daiyu thought for a while and then said: "Second sister-in-law, you won't be cheating! We have all seen Lan'er's banknotes, but we haven't seen yours yet!"
When everyone heard this, they were stunned again. Daiyu obviously meant something in her words, and they were also suspicious. Is there something fishy about Sister Feng's bank note?
At this time, Xichun also came to disrupt the situation, "Second sister-in-law is usually a person who is used to big winds and waves. How could she be so successful just because of five hundred taels!"
Hearing this, others became even more suspicious. Li Wan stood next to Sister Feng, glanced secretly, was slightly startled, and then said with a smile: "No wonder, Miss Cai Luan said there was a big prize before, but she didn't expect to be beaten by this
The missed ones have been picked up! They are still hidden and tucked away, why don’t you hurry up and recruit them truthfully-"
Sister Feng listened to Li Wan behind her and knew that the bank note must have been read by her. She couldn't help but give her a rollicking look, "Sister-in-law, there are two of you in your family! I got the silver and the bracelet, but you still don't let me save some private money~"
Li Wan's ears turned red when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "You shouldn't have done that. You have seen all our stuff, and it's your turn. You're still hiding it. I want to sneak away after winning the big prize. I can't let you go~"
Sister Feng heard about the big prize twice and knew that the matter could not be concealed, so she simply took out the banknote, held it in her hand, and showed it to several sisters-in-law and brothers. After seeing it, everyone couldn't help laughing and scolding, Sister Feng is a clever girl.
Even after winning the grand prize, I still want to run.
You tell me why, there are three big characters on that banknote, "Two thousand taels", no wonder Sister Feng was so successful.
Her job of making money was only 300 taels per month, but now she just opened a box and took out 2,000 taels of silver, which might be worth her harvest for more than half a year! How could she be unhappy?
"Thank you Lord Marquis for the reward~"
Finally, Sister Feng twisted her waist, came to Jia Qi again, and said jokingly.
Everyone laughed again when they saw it. Sister Feng, who was usually very powerful, had never acted like a little girl.
Looking at the fairy concubine with peach blossoms in her eyes, Jia Qi felt something strange in his heart. He had never expected that Sister Feng would be like this. The tougher the person became, the more it cost people's lives. He blamed Brother Monkey for being plotted against her.
.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and a hurried voice came over.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty has called you to the palace to see him immediately~"
