Chapter 565: Willing to join the military and talk about what’s on my mind
"Second brother!"
In a room with a somewhat luxurious decoration, Baochai, Daiyu, Tanchun, and Yingchun greeted the boy at the door before filing in.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw a young man dressed in bright red, holding a book at the desk and reading with gusto.
Tan Chun was the first to speak. Needless to say, the person in front of him was Jia Baoyu, the second master of the Rongguo Palace.
Yingchun looked at Jia Baoyu who was reading. Although she didn't speak, it could be seen from her expression that her mood was complicated.
Except for Jia Qi, who was driven away by the old lady, she knew very well what kind of people the men in the east and west houses were.
Not to mention a playboy who walks dogs and fights cocks, that's pretty much it. Even his own father was also a womanizer.
There was a little wife in the room today, and she would beg for two tomorrow. In her mind, the word "reliable" had nothing to do with Jia She.
Jia Zhen and Jia Rong had an even worse reputation. I heard that the maids in Dongfu had hooked eyes, which made her sigh and pity her, but in the end she followed
An inaudible sigh dissipated.
There are so many sad things in the world, but the world is not controlled by people.
As a daughter born in this era, many things are not decided by herself.
If you want to be harmonious and happy in the future, apart from a good husband, your mother's brother is the best person to rely on. Unfortunately, your own brother, who is your direct son, has never been polite to you.
During this period, she got into trouble with Wang Xifeng because of the romantic debts he left outside. She went there several times but could not see her at all. She did not dare to say anything when she met Sister Feng, for fear of being hurt by Sister Feng's sharp mouth.
.
As for Baochai and Daiyu, they were not as enthusiastic as Tanchun, and they just gave them a gentle blessing.
Seeing this brother again, Baochai's eyes flashed. Originally, Jia Baoyu was born in a very good way. Because of such and such things, he stayed in the boudoir, which gave people a bad impression.
But now, the prodigal son has turned back, and his originally loose spirit has become more bookish, and his features are picturesque. Speaking of which, Jia Baoyu is really in a good place now.
As for Daiyu, she glanced at Jia Baoyu and stopped paying attention. If a girl already has someone in her heart, then no matter how good the other people are, there is a high probability that they will be rejected.
"Sister Bao, Sister Lin, Second Sister, Third Sister, why do you have time to visit me today?"
Jia Baoyu put down the book in his hand, stood up, and greeted them as girls with a smile.
"What Brother Bao said, it's not that we don't come here on weekdays, it's that you're not here even when we come. Recently, the family has arranged the wedding arrangements for the mother-in-law. We knew that the old lady wouldn't let you study during this period, so we came here!"
Tanchun walked to the desk where Jia Baoyu was sitting before and glanced at the table, as if to see what Jia Baoyu wanted to see.
She picked up a piece of paper on the table and saw a small poem on the paper.
"When the Qin Dynasty was a bright moon, when the Han Dynasty passed, the people who marched thousands of miles have not yet returned, but the flying generals of Dragon City are still there, and they do not teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains."
This is a quatrain, a frontier poem by Wang Shaobo. It has a grandeur when read. Girls rarely like poems with this theme, but this does not include the girl Tanchun.
"This is Uncle Wang's departure!!"
Baochai was stunned when she heard Tanchun finish reading, and blurted out the words the next moment, and then her almond-shaped eyes couldn't help but glance at Jia Baoyu.
The current situation is unstable, with wars raging everywhere. It is indeed a way out to join the army, but on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, and life and death cannot be guaranteed. This is also a huge flaw.
If Jia Baoyu were an ordinary person, there would be no problem joining the army, but Jia's mansion is not somewhere else. Even if Jia Baoyu really had this idea, Jia's mother would not let him go.
Daiyu didn't know what she thought of, and her eyes lowered.
"Second brother, are you planning to join the army?"
Tanchun tilted her little head, her eyes full of exploration. As a little girl, she didn't know much about the battlefield. The most she learned about it was from Jia Qi.
Jia Qi was on the battlefield and achieved fame at a young age. Jia Qi rarely talked about things like ordering troops on the battlefield and the setting sun like blood, so Tanchun only knew that gaining fame on the battlefield was risky, but she didn't know exactly how dangerous it was.
.
"Talk nonsense again!"
Baochai quickly interrupted Tanchun. This was not a good thought. If it reached the ears of Jia Mu or Mrs. Wang, it would probably cause dissatisfaction with them.
After all, now that Jia Baoyu is willing to study, it is no longer difficult to gain fame through the imperial examination. In this case, Jia's mother will never allow Jia Baoyu to take the military meritorious service.
"That's not a good place to be. Joining the army and fighting in the war will lead to death. Even if Brother Bao pursues a career, he may not be able to achieve success and fame, and there is no need to fight for the merits at the risk of his life!"
Hearing this, Jia Baoyu smiled and shook his head.
"Sister Bao, please be patient. I just accidentally read Wang Shaobo's poem and wrote it down after feeling it!"
"Besides, even if I really have that intention, the old lady won't allow it."
Baochai slowly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Fortunately, Jia Baoyu didn't have any enthusiasm. He went to the old lady regardless and said that he wanted to write and join the army, abandon literature and join the military.
When the time comes, the girls who come over will have to eat melons and flowers. Daiyu has Lin Ruhai, so the old lady won't be too harsh on her, but it's hard to say anything about her and Yingchun Tanchun.
Yingchun stood aside and didn't say anything. Of the girls who came this time, there was one who didn't speak except her, so she glanced at the girl next to her who was as quiet as water.
Seeing that the other person's eyes were lowered, as if he was worried, someone suddenly appeared in her mind.
There is a person she is relatively familiar with, the current champion, and the little transparent Dongfu at that time.
Did Jia Qi really not know that it would be dangerous to take the military route? The answer may be no, but in the end he still chose that path. Compared with Jia Baoyu, Jia Qi may not have had a choice at the time, right?
As soon as she thought of this, Yingchun suddenly felt a hint of bitterness in her heart. Many times, people have no choice.
But when she thought of Jia Qi, her mind wandered. During this period, she had not heard any news about Jia Qi in the capital. Some people said that Jia Qi had escaped, while others said that Jia Qi had been killed. There were different opinions.
Was the girl next to her also thinking about the boy, until Tanchun came to her side, pulled her arm and asked, "What is the second sister thinking? Why didn't you even hear us talking?"
