Chapter 224: Looking for Someone

After Jia Yu said that, the atmosphere instantly froze, and no one else dared to speak, Jia Mu glanced at him and said,

"Today is a good day for your second brother, can't you stop and stop?"

"Stop?" Jia Yu said in a strange air, "What do I have to stop, am I not congratulating the second brother? Congratulations to the second brother for finally taking off the hat of the prince for twenty years, right?"

said that he bowed his hand to this Jia Zheng, under filial piety, he was the eldest brother, even if Jia Zheng was not happy, he had to reluctantly smile and return the salute.

Jia Zheng didn't dare to reply to him, and when Jia's mother saw him bullying her brother-in-law like this, she immediately scolded, "Did you say that about your brother? You are an unfaithful and unfilial thing!"

Jia Yu didn't know where to get the courage, and scolded, "Who is the person who is disloyal and unfilial, and the dove occupies the magpie's nest!" After speaking, he waved his sleeves and left!

was so angry that Jia's mother dropped a tea bowl, and others didn't dare to say more, only Jia Zheng carefully persuaded Jia's mother to gradually dissipate her anger, and thus became more and more dissatisfied with Jia Yu.

Chen looked at the mother and son, and she didn't go out, she knew that Jia Yu was a person who had no ability and no future, and even if she didn't plan anything, she couldn't destroy herself, so she didn't count on him.

As for Jia Zheng, it's better to stay at home if he doesn't have the ability, this time he went out, and he didn't have a capable staff to help him, with the skills of the people in the house, he couldn't say what kind of disaster would happen, and he just looked at it horizontally.

Because of this farce, when it was time to eat in the evening, the atmosphere was also stiff and cold, after all, this was the first time that Jia Yu put Jia's mother's partiality on the bright side, and it had a big impact on the two rooms of the Jia family, so it ended the family banquet uneventfully.

On August 20, Jia Zheng got up and went on a business trip.

But said that after Jia Zheng left, Baoyu and the wild horses that had taken off the reins, sprinkled the happy Erha, indulged wantonly in the Grand View Garden, and wasted time, because there was a lot of leisure and boredom in the garden, Tanchun set up a poetry club, invited the sisters and sisters-in-law to go over, and the sisters happily agreed.

I don't know where Jia Baoyu got two white begonias that are blooming, this society took the Begonia Society, and everyone took aliases, and the others are no different from the Red Mansion, but Daiyu does not live in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion now, so she changed her name, because she loves the nobility of bamboo, because the Tang Dynasty Yuan Zhi wrote "Bingbi cold night tower, Xiao Shaofeng day Luo", so the name was Bingbi Fairy.

Jia Lu is especially not good at poetry, so he begged not to make poems, but only to be a supernumerary, and specially left paintings for everyone, so he gave up.

They wrote poems about the time limit of a pillar of incense, but she didn't care about this when she painted, and began to print everyone's demeanor on the paper at the beginning of the pen, except for the begonia flowers, the sisters, and the maids around the sisters if they were good-looking, they also painted them.

Sister Bao was followed by a pretty girl, who didn't look like a maid, with a little rouge mole on her eyebrows, and was looking at everyone composing poems with envy, her fingers moved, and she seemed to be planning something on her clothes.

Jia Lu paused and asked Jiao Qian softly, "That one with a mole on his eyebrows is Xiangling?"

Jiao Qian glanced at it and replied, "It's her, she is Uncle Xue's room, and she won't enter the garden when she is free, so the girl doesn't recognize her, and I don't know why Miss Zibao called her in." ”

Jia Lu's mind turned for a moment, and he asked again, "How old does this Xue Pan brother seem to be?"

Jiao Qian shook her head and replied, "This slave doesn't know, it seems to be a year or two older than Miss Bao, I'm afraid she is seventeen or eighteen now?"

Jia Lu muttered, "Then it's time to get married!" Jia Yu became a relative, so I'm afraid that her hard life is coming!

Jiao Qian didn't hear what Jia Lu said clearly for a while, and asked, "Girl, but what are you talking about?"

Jia Lu came back to her senses and said with a smile, "I'm thinking, I'm afraid that the shopkeeper of this rich embroidery village is going to enter the mansion again?"

"Exactly, it's almost September now, the girl's autumn clothes are ready, and I have to report last month, I'm afraid it's just these days. ”

Jia Lu nodded and said, "When she comes, let her come to see me, I have something to tell her." ”

Jiao Qian responded.

This time, the Begonia Poetry Society commented on Baochai's poems that are subtle and vigorous, and they are the leader, although Daiyu's poems are merry and graceful, others have no objections, but Baoyu wants to have objections but was gagged by Li Kun, and that's it.

The next day, Jia Lu had an order, the new shopkeeper of Fugui Embroidery Village did not dare to delay, and came to the house the next day.

This time, the shopkeeper is a female dependent, who was originally an embroiderer, but accidentally injured her fingers and couldn't live, because she herself has the ability to understand needlework and embroidery, and can speak well, not only was she not driven out of her fingers, but she was promoted to the shopkeeper of the house.

Therefore, I am more and more grateful to the girl.

"Girl, you have brought ten sets of autumn clothes this year, and this set is ......"

As he was introducing, he was stopped by Jia Lu and said, "Wait, you are not busy introducing these, the horizontal and vertical clothes are also ready, and you can't throw them away if you put them aside, I have something to ask you." ”

The shopkeeper bowed down and asked, "I wonder what the girl commands?"

"I heard that you all seem to go to the south to buy, right?"

The shopkeeper smiled,

"Exactly, our silk in the north is not as delicate as in the south, and there are more patterns in the south, so every year our shop will go to the south several times, and there are our industries in Jinling, Yangzhou, Hangzhou and other places, and it is easy to collect. ”

Jia Lu's eyes lit up, "Really, our family still has an industry in the south?"

Mama Qian on the side also smiled when she heard it, and said,

"The girl is really joking, we are in the court, which one who has money and power will not go to the south to buy property, the climate is good over there, the soil is good, but it is much more useful than buying property in the north, and our Jia family is originally from the south, and it is not appropriate to leave some industry?"

Jia Lu laughed and said,

"That's good, it's just cheaper, shopkeeper, I think in the south of Gusu Mansion, a few years ago there was a celebrity, called Zhen Shiyin, next to their house is a gourd temple, decades ago, their family lost their daughter, the gourd temple caught fire again, even with their home also burned, and then this Zhen Shiyin couple went to his wife's house, it seems that the surname is sealed, you have someone to investigate, if you find it, and bring it back to the capital, it is said that there is news of their girl, if you can't find it, forget it over there. ”

The shopkeeper was suspicious and asked,

"Where did the girl get the news, this name and surname but the place is unknown?"

Jia Lu said mysteriously, "You don't care about this, just go and inquire horizontally, and find out about the benefits of you!"

No, the shopkeeper should also be down.

Even Jiao Qian, Mama Qian and others looked at her mysteriously, and they were very curious, but they couldn't find out, only Mama Li knew that the girl in their family had been a little different since she was a child, and this story was true, I am afraid that it should be on the girl who Zhen Shiyin lost.

Jia Lu didn't know Mama Li's guess, so she sent the shopkeeper, and some people went back and forth, saying that Miss Shi was here and asked them to go over to meet.
