Chapter 63
It is said that Mi'er and others entrusted Lin Daiyu's conspiracy plan to King Ning, and they had no way to know for a while, but it had no effect, and they were excited for a few days. After school on this day, Jia Cong suddenly remembered that he had been busy venting his anger for Lin Hai in recent days, and forgot to tell him about the authentic affairs of the mansion in the south of the city, so he hurriedly dragged him over, and led him away with Jia Huan.
Mi'er was also very curious and excited, and followed them to the empty house south of the moat first, then poked his head at Zhenwu'an, said hello to the ancient Buddha who burned the lamp, and finally went to Gong Sanyi's water tank. Fearing that the old man was at home, they did not open the lid of the water tank, but only stretched out the oil lamp and shone it before withdrawing and slipping back.
After walking a long way, the three of them did not feel tired, and ran back to the empty house, and sat on a few stones in the small garden at random.
Mi'er said categorically: "There must be something important in this tunnel. ”
Jia Huan hurriedly asked, "What's there?" ”
Jia Cong asked, "Where?" Are you looking for it? ”
Mi'er said: "I don't know. It's just that this tunnel is so spacious, and there are so many organs and oil lamps, there must be a huge cost. If it is only used in a few courtyards of Prince Yizhong, it is just an ordinary tunnel, but it is not necessary to waste these silver dollars. It shows that they either walked often in the past, or they often walked in preparation for the future. ”
Jia Cong couldn't help but jump up: "Will there be a treasure!" ”
Mi'er smiled: "I can't keep it." However, if it is only for storing belongings, the oil lamps along the way are redundant, and it is enough to carry a few lamps in your hand when storing things. ”
Jia Huan held his chin and sighed: "Why didn't Mr. Gong just tell us all, it's too unscrupulous." ”
Mi'er pondered: "Since he has told him all the methods of opening the mechanism, it shows that he doesn't want to hide it from us." ”
Jia Cong thought for a while: "Is it so that we can find it out ourselves?" As in the commentary, is it a test? It's just that this test is too meaningless. ”
The three of them thought about it for a long time, and couldn't understand why Gong San didn't tell them earlier, and guessed for a while, until they were hungry before running back to eat.
The next day, it was the day of martial arts practice again, and the three of them arrived earlier than usual. Jia Cong gave Jia Huan a look, and took advantage of the moment when Gong San also walked to the martial arts arena and hugged him.
Jia Cong smiled and asked, "Sir, is there any secret in that tunnel?" ”
Gong San also moved his eyebrows and said, "Anyone who has never told you will guess it yourself." ”
Jia Cong pulled his shirt and smiled: "You only say whether there is or not, if not, we will not bother." ”
Gong San also raised his feet and walked forward, but they didn't dare to stop them, so they had to follow; Gong San also said again: "Anyone who has never told you will guess it for himself." ”
Jia Cong raised his head and looked at Mi'er: Obviously, there is. Naisa grabbed his arm and shook it: "There must be a general eyebrow, right?" Are we just going to be foolish? Jia Huan also took advantage of the situation to grab his other arm and shake it.
Gong San couldn't help laughing in the end, but he still said the same sentence: "Anyone who has never told you will guess it yourself." ”
Jia Cong said deflatedly: "I guessed the authenticity last time, and I guessed it for two years!" It's okay not to delay people's efforts so much. ”
Gong Sanyi glanced down at him: "It also grinded your temperament, didn't it?" ”
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "Practicing calligraphy is very grinding, okay?" It's a waste of spirit to forget about grinding a thing. Sir, you can sue us. Besides, I'm the only one who wants to grind his temperament, and he has both very stable temperaments, so he can't grind with me. ”
Gong San also smiled but did not say anything.
When he saw it, he knew that he wouldn't say it, so he pulled Raja Cong: "That's it, let's go back and draw the picture and check it carefully." It's more interesting to find out on your own. He looked at Gong San again. Seeing a smile in the corner of his eyes, it was obvious that he did not object.
Jia Cong pursed his lips and muttered, "Unscrupulous master." He also said, "In this case, the empty house in the south of the moat, we have nothing to do, and it is okay to think about it." ”
Gong San also snorted: "Haven't you been there? ”
Jia Cong smiled and said, "That's a fool's errand." Now I want to ask my husband for the right to use it, and I often go around the inside. ”
Gong San also said: "The old owner of the house moved away, and now it is still idle and no one buys it." ”
Jia Cong hurriedly said: "Then I can buy a private house?" ”
Gong San also asked him: "You bought it, if people ask, what are you going to do with it?" Playing with your brothers? ”
Jia Cong smiled: "Mr. thinks too much, who will ask this for no reason?" Or borrow my father's name to buy a property for me. It's not big, it's not eye-catching. If someone occasionally passes by the door and sees someone inside, they don't think it's a fox demon. ”
Gong San also said: "It's very remote outside, and no one usually passes by." That's it, it's up to you. As he spoke, he had arrived at the martial arts arena at this time, and there were already many friends waiting there, and they all said hello in unison when they saw Gong Sanyi. Gong San also stopped paying attention to Jia Cong and others, and led everyone to practice martial arts.
When Jia Cong went back, he really bothered Jia Yu to come forward for him, and he himself wanted to buy the empty house on the other side of the moat with private money. Jia Yu didn't know about the authentic things, and when he saw that he had to name that place, he went to Gong Sanyi to inquire.
It turned out that the house was an outer house owned by a merchant on the surface, but it was deserted because the outer room was dead, and now even the others have gone back to the south, and only entrusted it to a trustworthy Chinese person to resell it. Because the price is not low and the place is extremely remote, it has not been able to sell. Jia Yu went around and felt a little strange. The house was so elaborate that it was obviously bought on purpose to build a new one. Not to mention that the remote places have already left the city, and the roads outside are extremely hidden, and it is obvious that they are sincere in trying to hide from people. Gong San also explained that the outer room was a young widow from a powerful family, who couldn't bear to be lonely, so she pretended to go to the nunnery to retreat, but in fact she was hiding here. Jia Yu thought about it as reasonable, so he asked Jia Cong to pay for the house by himself, and he found someone to clean and take care of it and add items, but he spent more money than buying a house. Jia Cong took advantage of it and only smiled, hugged him and rubbed it as a thanks. That's for later.
Because of Gong Sanyi's acquiescence and the ability to draw, Jia Cong took the charcoal pen and drew a detailed sketch for a long time, and redrew an authentic sketch. At this time, he thought of asking a carpenter to make the triangular ruler and ruler that he had used in his previous life. It's just that he thought about it for a long time, and finally he didn't use today's units of measurement, but made three kinds of 15cm, 30cm and 50cm according to his own estimation that the meters commonly used in later generations. Naturally, the English letters and Arabic numerals on the scale were carved by himself with a knife. After getting the first set, he ordered the carpenter to make ten more sets in the same way. The top carpenter of this era was skillful and accurate, and he gave a lot of money, and it didn't take long to make it.
Jia Cong took a set, and the three of them with a large bundle of rope and a compass ran to the tunnel when they had the opportunity; And took the footsteps to walk many times from the south of the city mansion to the door of Zhenwuan and Gong Sanyi's house, and carefully painted the floor plan, section, and three-dimensional map of the ground and tunnel. Although he is not very professional, as a science student, he has learned mechanical drawing, and he can barely mark everything that should be marked. Jia Cong regretted very much why he didn't study surveying and mapping in his previous life.
Taking this opportunity, Jia Cong taught him Arabic numerals and English letters very simply and generously. Both of them were taken aback, and they didn't even ask him where he learned it, which was a tacit understanding. Since then, the three of them have become more and more led by Jia Cong.
They reviewed and revised it many times in detail, and finally came up with a fairly accurate picture. Because Jia Cong's house was still under repair, the three of them looked through the drawings around the rockery at the entrance of the garden of the mansion in the south of the city for a long time, but there was still no clue.
Jia Cong thought for a while and asked the two of them: "I want to take the picture to consult Sister Lin and explain this matter to him, do you agree?" ”
Jia Huan blurted out: "Excellent! I thought about it too. Sister Lin is smart, and she can't see anything. ”
Mi'er thought for a long time and said, "Are you going to drag Mr. Lin in?" ”
Jia Cong smiled: "Since she came up with the idea of merging, she has already entered the game; But I'm going to get her own consent first. I'm not a laid-back like Song Jiang, and recruiting accomplices will never be coerced. Because he explained with the two of them, "I said S.H.I.E.L.D. last time, it was too hasty. These days, I think a lot clearer. "I sat down.
When the two saw this, they knew that he had much to say; Jia Huan took out an oily paper bag from his arms, took out the mung bean cake and gave it to Mi'er.
Jia Cong glared at him, thought for a while and said, "There are many, many unfair rules in this world today. For example, the emperor's mother died, and the people had to keep filial piety, and it was probably impossible to win by suing the officials with the people, and the woman had to be widowed without a husband, and in the future, the second uncle and ancestor would let Brother Huan do something he was unwilling to do. ”
Jia Huan hurriedly said, "You are the same." ”
Jia Cong said: "I don't, I don't listen to my ancestors." It's extremely difficult for you not to listen to your second uncle. ”
Jia Huan's face darkened.
"When the world encounters this, most people have to endure it. I'm an unwilling character, and there are no rules in the world that can't be broken. Hard doesn't work, soft can come; The soft one doesn't work, it can be clever; Clever doesn't work, it can come to yin; Even the yin ones don't work, and you can run away. It's just that a person is inevitably weak. So I want to have a group of people, a small group. Caring and helpful, each with its own ability and ideas, everyone works together to deal with these injustices. However, there are only two things, that is, everyone in our bureau needs to have two thoughts. One is called, 'My life is up to me, not heaven', and the other is called, 'All for me, I am for all', to put it bluntly, it is to protect the short. Your own people are right; If there is something wrong with your own people, you must first help and then talk about it, and then go back to repair the lessons internally, first of all, you must be consistent with the outside world. ”
He paused, looking at Jia Huan and Mi'er's faces were thinking, and there was no confusion, Fang continued: "Uncle is a courtier, a monarch and a minister, a father and son. Therefore, he thought that the emperor and the saint gave him a loss, and he could only endure it, he must endure it, he couldn't bear it, and he couldn't bear it, even if it almost cost him his life. Sister Bilin refused to bear it, and conspired with us to take revenge. Regardless of success or failure, she has this heart, and she is born to be our way. ”
He paused for a while: "In the coming day, we have the spare strength, and we can also do the right thing for the sky." Naturally, it is the toll for the heavenly way. Heroes also have to eat. Whether it is to recapture the daughter who was robbed by the powerful, or to recover the land money forcibly occupied by the slaves, or to catch the adulterer for others, there is a fee. ”
After speaking, he reached out and took a piece of mung bean cake from Jia Huan's oiled paper bag and stuffed it into his mouth, while looking at the two of them.
After a while, Mi'er said, "What you said, I understand." It's just that it's easy for you to think, but it's not necessarily easy to do. Except for the three of us, Mr. Lin, who else do you like? ”
Jia Huan nodded in agreement, and also asked: "Yes, you have been thinking about it for a long time, and you want to have someone to choose someone." Wu You? ”
Jia Cong waved his hand again and again: "Wu Yu can't do it." Although Wu You is lively, smart, and good friends with the three of us, he does not meet our entry conditions. He is filial. If his father gave him a loss, he would endure it. ”
Jia Huan pouted and said, "Wu You is Uncle Leopard's heart, will he give him a loss?" You're dreaming. ”
Jia Cong said: "The elders and we often think differently, and there is a wonderful thing in the world called 'for your good'. Let's take an analogy. In the future, if Wu You falls in love with a girl from a small family, and there is a powerful old man who takes a fancy to him, Uncle Leopard will think that the Yue family, who is an official, can support him, and let him marry a noble girl back. I'm not saying that the noble girl might bully Wu You; It's just that the two of them live together, if Wu You doesn't like his daughter-in-law, how boring it will be. For a lifetime, comfort and happiness are much more important than fame and wealth. Looking back, he is smart and studious, and our group of friends are helping, maybe he doesn't need to be an official to mix well. It's just that Uncle Leopard may not be able to figure it out about this matter. Brother Huan, if you think about it, your aunt will understand. ”
Jia Huan listened to it and thought for a long time, and said: "Yes, my aunt often asks me to go to the master to please me, and I also know that she is for my good." It's just that if I go, I'm afraid that I will make my wife unhappy, and I will suffer even more if I can't keep it. She always couldn't figure out this verse. My sister and I have told her many times, but she still doesn't understand. ”
Jia Cong said: "Your aunt is really not smart. However, if she is smart, Mrs. can't let her give birth to a third sister with you. You see Aunt Zhou is smarter than your aunt, right? Didn't you have a baby? ”
Jia Huan was about to stuff mung bean cake into his mouth, he was stunned when he heard this, raised his hand and froze in the air for a long time, and finally put down the mung bean cake and said with a wry smile: "I never thought of this section before, it turned out to be ......" He slowly shook his head, "For the sake of my sister and my life, she better not be so smart." ”
Mi'er suddenly said: "Why are the wives and concubines of big families fighting so fiercely?" Your family and the third aunt's family are like this. ”
Jia Cong twitched the corner of his mouth: "Nonsense." There is only one man, and the woman is locked in the backyard and can't make a living. The eldest wife entered the door with a dowry, and her mother's family was the backstage, so why didn't she bully the younger wife to play? Why is the little wife willing to be bullied? It's like water must flow downward. Brother Er, you will not be in the pool when you come. I advise you, don't marry a little wife. You don't know how smart women are, but Brother Huan and I know a little bit. ”
Mi'er smiled and said, "I've seen Mr. Lin, can I still think that women are stupid?" Then I must be a fool. ”
Jia Cong shook her head again and again: "Sister Lin is still the daughter of the boudoir, she is only smart, and her heart is excellent." You haven't seen the ruthlessness of women, trapped in the backyard like a trapped beast, with a lot of intelligence and ability to do nowhere to go, that's terrible. In the coming day, I will tell you a commentary called "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which is about the harem of the Ming Dynasty. Those girls were extremely pure and kind at first, and finally they were forced to become evil spirits, as you will know. ”
Mi'er sighed: "There is also the third aunt." She and Princess Nan'an each lost a child, and those two children didn't need to be lost. I will only have one wife in Japan, and I will not add any more concubines. ”
Jia Cong nodded, and said, "Let's get down to business." What I mean is that in order to deal with all these injustices in the world, we need to have different people to have different abilities and ideas. I would like to invite Wu Xiaoxi to join in. ”
I didn't expect that the first person he recommended was a girl, and Mi'er and Jia Huan were stunned.
Jia Cong said: "Women's thoughts are different from men's, I thought we also needed girls in our bureau." Sister Lin is extremely talented and full of poetry and books, but she is the eldest lady in the deep house, so she does not eat fireworks in the world. Sister Xiaoxi is extremely smart and conspicuous among a large group of girls here, and she is very good at observing words and emotions at a young age. The first time I saw her, I heard her say to Uncle Leopard that she had seen the flower that Aunt Leopard had bought for her, and her eyes were straight, so she gave the flower to Buckle. Uncle Leopard praised her for a long time, and took her to buy other flowers. Later, I saw that many times she picked up her own things were blue, green, purple or other colors, but there was never bright red or bright yellow. It can be seen that she naturally does not like those colors. Aunt Leopard loves red very much, and Buckle also likes crimson the most. ”
Jia Huan couldn't help but high-five: "I want to come to Aunt Leopard to buy red cloth flowers for Xiaoxi according to her own liking, but she doesn't like it, and deliberately wears it for the buckle to see." ”
Jia Cong said with a smile: "Although this matter is small, it shows that Sister Xiaoxi is smart and does not accept her fate. And willingly. That's what I admire most about her. At that time, the families were still quite poor, and the girls rarely had flowers, and the girls next to them must hide them like treasures if they got them, and they didn't care whether they liked it or not. How old was she? About four or five years old. is so willing to give it away, if you don't like it, give it away! It shows that he was born with some courage. ”
Jia Huan hurriedly said: "In this case, I agree." He looked at Mi'er again.
Mi'er nodded and said, "Xiaoxi is really a four-cornered one, and people can be relied on." I also agree. I just don't know if she wants to? ”
Jia Cong said: "I'll ask her tomorrow." She is a girl, no matter how smart she is, she can't do many things. If she can join us, her road to Japan will be much easier, and she should be willing to come. ”
Mi'er said, "I know what kind of companions you are looking for. I have someone I'd like to recommend, but you're not necessarily familiar with it. ”
Jia Huan hurriedly said, "Who is it?" Let's hear it. ”
Mi'er said: "He has a strange temperament, but he is really smart, but he doesn't speak very well, and he often offends people." ”
Jia Cong jumped up: "Liu Gou'er! ”
Mi'er said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! That's him! has a bad temperament, everyone doesn't play with him much, and he doesn't ask for help. Because I have been living in your house, I have paid little attention to him in the past. When I went home a few days ago, Uncle Wanzi heard that he had brought him to my house to discuss with my father about giving him a big name, and he asked me if I had any ideas. How dare I make a name for him? Jia Huan laughed when he said that, and Jia Cong was a little embarrassed. We talked to him about the hour. This person is discerning, but he can't say anything nice. But he had the advantage that he would not tell him when no one asked him. Even if you know it in your heart, you don't say it. If anyone asks, he will not go around the bush and speak outright, so he will always be unpleasant. ”
Jia Cong rubbed his hands with joy: "I know, I know!" Originally, he was the other person I wanted to recommend, and the two of us coincided. Brother Dog is actually a genius, and I've wanted to beat him for a long time. Brother Er, we have to kidnap this person. Since Uncle Wan Zi wants to make a name for him, why don't you go to find my father? ”
Mi'er smiled faintly: "The general is so busy, he can't have spare time every day, and the children of every family name others." Uncle Wan Zi is just an ordinary horse team leader, and his kung fu is neither outstanding nor outstanding. ”
Jia Cong smiled: "He thinks too much. My father did have a lot to offer, but he was very fair to his brothers. I'll go back and tell my dad. ”
Mi'er nodded: "It's okay." ”
Jia Cong clapped his hands and said, "So these two people are decided?" You all agreed? ”
Jia Huan had finished eating the last piece of dim sum at this time, folded the empty paper bag and squeezed it in his hand and said, "First ask people if they can agree or not?" Cong'er went to look for the creek, and the younger brother asked Liu Gou'er. ”
Mi'er smiled lightly: "No." Cong'er is the leader in this matter, and you can ask both of them. ”
Jia Cong thought for a moment when he heard this, nodded and said, "That's right." Now it's just getting started, and the initial talents should be recruited by me. ”
Jia Huan said with a smile: "A lord is magnificent, Cong'er, you are majestic." ”
Jia Cong also laughed: "Although the cause is just for self-preservation, maybe we can get a big career in the future." ”。
