Seeing that the New Year is coming, the capital is lively and prosperous, and there are more people in various provinces. Because of her age, she was often invited to get together by friends, and she was suddenly much busier. Jia Cong and Jia Huan followed when the two snacks were empty, and they got to know some characters by the way, and gradually became familiar with many rising stars in Shilin, and they also recognized a few oil bottles led by their brothers and brothers next to them, but they were also a little busier than usual. Only Baoyu rarely goes out and accompanies Jia's mother every day.

They occasionally listen to gossip outside, and recently Liu Aiyun and Jiang Yuhan's fans on the stage will make trouble on the stage, and they have played two or three times these days, and the first group of idlers in Beijing are talking about it day by day, Jia Cong can't help but pinch his stomach and laugh.

On this day, Jia Cong returned to the mansion and ran to him and said, "Miss Shi is here." ”

Jia Cong was stunned: "Didn't she follow Baolinghou to other provinces?" "About Jia's mother has lost power in the past few years, and Shi Nai's relocation to other provinces was not left behind when Shi Nai.

said: "I just inquired in the old ancestor's courtyard, as if her old man wrote a letter to Shi Hou Ye and asked him to send people back." ”

Jia Cong frowned. He didn't feel sorry for Shi Xiangyun's monthly money of two taels of silver a month, but Jia's mother didn't keep her that day, and this son called someone to send her, so he didn't know what it meant. Didn't you see that Lin Daiyu was out of play and ready to be replaced? Baoyu is also a pitiful one. There was a thought, and the horizontal and vertical had nothing to do with him, so he didn't bother to care. The next day, he went to Jia's mother's house to ask for peace, but saw that Shi Xiangyun was also there. Because Jia Cong had something to go out, he just hurriedly said hello with a smile and left.

Two days later, Jia's mother put on a big wine show, and the ladies of various houses invited a large film, which was very lively. Jia Cong Jia Huan ran away early with the sign of going out to play, Jia Lian naturally visited his colleagues, and Wei Baoyu stayed with Jia's mother alone. It was only on this day that the two of them returned to Lixiangyuan and greeted them again: "The two masters are back!"

Jia Huan smiled: "My sister's face is about to bloom with a smile, her voice trembles, there must be something interesting going on today." ”

Sure enough, the gossip flower on his face was full of smiles: "Let the third master of Huan guess half of it, but this excitement has not yet come out, but I am afraid that I will have to wait a few more days." Today, Miss Xue, Miss Shi and several other girls who came to visit us and the four girls of our family were composing poems around the plum blossoms in their yard. I was just interested, and it suddenly snowed. Fortunately, the girls of each family came with snow coats, and the four girls of our family also ordered someone to take out the new cloud leopard coat at the beginning of the month and put it on. Miss Shi looked at it and said words of envy for a long time, seeing that the second girl wanted to pity her, the next sentence was 'let Cong'er get one for you', who knew that Miss Xue said, if you like it, I will also find a piece for you. Miss Shi immediately turned red, and said vigorously how good Miss Xue was. Our four girls, hey, you're welcome! As she spoke, she gave a thumbs up, "Immediately said that the first two of them were given by the head of the palace, and the two were brought by my brother when he went out to Laipilai."

Jia Huan fell on the kang and laughed, because he laughed hard at first, and threw off his boots and lay on his back and kicked his legs.

Jia Cong was embarrassed and said curtly: "I said that Lai Pilai came that day, is that to amuse her......

couldn't help lying on the desk and laughing for a long time, and then said: "Miss Xue was really calm, and said with a smile, since there are two pieces of each of the two, I don't think it's the only one in the world, but I'm afraid that there are colors on the side, and I don't know if I can find it when I go outside to find it." If you want to say that Miss Lin is tricky, she is even more tricky than others. She said, Sister Bao is a knowledgeable person, and what she said is reasonable. But no, there are two of each, and there must be third, fourth, and fifth. Since there are quite a few in the world, it is probably not difficult to find. It's better for Sister Bao to get it for Yun Yatou a year ago, and she will naturally live more and more happily this year. ”

only heard a string of "dong dong dong", Jia Huan's early laughter had nowhere to go, and he rolled on the kang and kicked Jia Cong's bedpost.

Jia Cong couldn't stand up, and fell to the side of the kang and laughed with Jia Huan. The few people in the room who pricked up their ears to listen to the gossip were all staggering and laughing.

For a long time, Jia Huan covered his stomach and pointed at Jia Cong and said: "You said that Mr. Xiao Gong is the king of the pit before, and in my opinion, Sister Lin is the real king of the pit." ”

Jia Cong also sighed a few times, and said, "I looked at the account book a few days ago, but it happened that he made a pit, and said it casually." What kind of pit king is he! You're right, Sister Lin is the king of the pit, and this nickname will follow her for the rest of her life! ”

There was another burst of laughter in the room.

It was a joke, just laughing. Who knew that Jia's mother was happy that day, and she left Xue Baochai to stay in the house for a while. Two days later, Lan Xiang suddenly came to report that the girl named Ying'er next to the girl of the Xue family was here.

Jia Cong was changing his clothes at that moment. It turned out that this year's New Year's gift list to the Gao family in Chang'an, the letter to welcome the Spring Festival and the small belongings of several girls were first sent by Jia Yu's horse Xing Kuai, and the old lady of the Gao family was overjoyed, and the envoy made up a New Year's gift to give these small ones in a hurry. Now their family's serious New Year's gift has not yet arrived, but this later one has come first. Jia pardoned Jia Lian was not at home, so Yingchun ordered people to be brought to Lixiangyuan, and they were already waiting in the hall. Jia Cong was indifferent to Ying'er, and casually ordered: "Go and ask what's the matter, I won't have time to take care of her now...... I don't bother to take care of it if I have the kung fu. ”

went out in response, came in again for a while, couldn't hold her mouth with a smile, and returned: "Miss Xue sent her to ask the master, and she looked at the two dark cloud leopard clothes that the master made for the third girl and the fourth girl, but she didn't know where to get them, so she also asked Uncle Xue to get them." ”

Jia Cong frowned and said, "It's inconvenient for me to sue her about this, it's just that it's not easy to come by." And you remind her that she should ask me about this kind of thing. ”

Busy smiling and grinning, Jia Cong muttered, "I'm not familiar with her again", and went to the hall to meet the people of the Gao family. When I saw that person, Jia Cong knew at first glance that he was not simple, he was just the kind of person who was rumored to be "thrown into the crowd and couldn't be found", in his forties, with extremely bright eyes. Hurriedly smiled at the man: "This is my aunt's person, isn't it?" ”

The man bowed down and clenched his fists: "Little Ou Cheng was sent by the old lady to give you a New Year's gift." ”

Because the small hall of Lixiangyuan is usually a school, because the tables and chairs are temporarily folded behind for the New Year, and the big tent is covered, this will be a little empty. Jia Cong asked him to sit on a chair on the side, Ou Chengcai waved his hand and shirked two sentences, Jia Cong said: "I see that your figure is obviously a person in the army, just because I admire the soldiers who protect the family and defend the country." ”

Ou Cheng's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said, "Then the subordinate is better to be respectful." ”

Jia Cong smiled and said: "General Ou, don't pretend, you can't even say a 'minion', who would believe you if you are an ordinary housekeeper slave." ”

Ou Cheng was stunned, and suddenly laughed. Jia Cong shook his head triumphantly.

After laughing, the two sat down, and Ou Cheng said: "That's it, I don't want to be seen through by a child." Because he said, "In my early years, I was a personal soldier next to the old general, and in recent years, I have also been promoted to some petty officials. ”

Frightened, Jia Cong immediately jumped down from the chair: "Say it earlier!" Hello Uncle Ou, the little nephew is polite. "But he made a bow to him.

Ou Cheng hurriedly supported him: "The third master is so polite!" ”

Jia Cong said: "You are my aunt's and grandfather's personal soldiers, aren't you just a few ordinary people with my fourth uncle and sixth uncle?" I'm afraid that I saved my aunt's and grandfather's life, but I don't know, I must be an amiable and respectable person. ”

Ou Cheng nodded again and again: "What Ge Liu said that day is not bad, the third young general seems to have been born to understand the military heart." ”

Jia Cong then remembered that in the early years, Ge Liu led people to Chang'an to ask for tens of thousands of taels of silver from the Gao family in Rongguofu, and they recognized it at that time. Then he smiled and said: "Uncle Sixth has always loved me, but I'm afraid that my words will be biased and I will say it too well." ”

Ou Cheng thought he was humble more and more, nodded with a smile, and couldn't help but reach out to brush his beard again, not wanting him to cut off his beard because he wanted to pretend to be a subordinate and touch it empty! Jia Cong laughed unabashedly, the little appearance of the smile was quite cute, and Ou Cheng himself laughed.

Laughing, Jia Cong asked first, "How is my aunt and grandmother?" ”

Ou Chengdao: "The old lady has a very strong body, and recently I got a letter from the second girl in your house, and I saw the poems written by several girls and the things I made, and I cried for several days. ”

Jia Cong hurriedly said: "I was trying to make her old man happy, why did she cry." We didn't mean to! ”

Ou Cheng smiled: "The old lady is naturally so happy that she cries. There is also a goose down pillow sent by the third major general, which she likes very much. ”

Jia Cong was stunned: "Huh? Count it on my head? That was originally what Sister Lin asked me to think for her. ”

Ou Chengdao: "Miss Lin and Mrs. Lin also like it tightly, and let our girls read her poems every day." ”

Jia Cong said with a smile: "Sister Lin is a fairy Linfan, to say something unflattering, the wisdom of several sisters in my family is under it, and I have always admired it." He asked the elders of the Gao family again.

Ou Chengran told him one by one. The Gao family has three generations, all the men are generals, Gao Li, the envoy of the Ping'an Prefecture, is one of the leaders, and there are more than a dozen generals of all sizes, and Jia Cong is endlessly envious when he hears it, and sighs: "It's a pity that my father is no longer in the barracks, otherwise I can go to the border to kill a few games." ”

Ou Cheng said with a smile: "It's not fun to kill the enemy at the border, it's better for a young master like you to be at home." ”

Jia Cong snorted: "Don't look down on people! I learn martial arts, and I have compared with many masters, don't believe that we have two moves? Because waved his little arm.

Ou Cheng saw that it was interesting and said: "That's it, then the general will accompany the third young general to make two moves." Don't cry if you lose. ”

Before his words landed, Jia Cong threw himself from the chair with a "whoosh", Ou Cheng parried him, and before he could speak, Jia Cong made another move. When he stood up to Jia Cong again, he said with a calm face: "Why did you do it before you said it?" ”

Jia Cong said: "Since it's a fight, it's natural to say that you will do it." Could it be that you are still waiting for the enemy to line up when you fight? How many more brothers will die in that! ”

Ou Cheng was overjoyed and pressed his head hard: "Good boy! There is the wind of the old man of the day! ”

Jia Cong screamed, but Ou Cheng's strength was too great, and he couldn't resist, so he pressed his head and turned for a long time. Ou Cheng really liked him this time, so he said: "Although the few tricks you have learned are shallow, it is obvious that they are ordinary green forest tricks, and self-defense is almost the same, so it is not a matter of taking them to the battlefield." The foundation is solid. ”

Jia Cong snorted: "Can it not be solid? Practicing martial arts is what I learned from my father, if I don't learn well, even if I am right for my father, I am sorry for myself. Uncle Ou, why don't you teach me two tricks? ”

Ou Chengdao: "I'm afraid I don't have much effort here." ”

Jia Cong said with a smile: "I heard from the second sister that my aunt and grandmother have a big birthday this year, and my brother has an errand and is inconvenient to ask for leave, so my father is going to send me away." I went to Chang'an, you teach me! ”

Ou Cheng was pleasantly surprised: "You came to congratulate the old lady on her birthday?" ”

Jia Cong nodded vigorously: "Yes." It's inconvenient for others to go, although I'm younger, I'm always my father's own son, isn't it? ”

Ou Chengxi said: "The old lady must be happy." At this time, he remembered that the gift list had not been taken out yet, so he hurriedly took it from his sleeve and showed it to Jia Cong.

Jia Cong saw that there were no valuable things above, but medicinal herbs, native products, and gadgets, and praised with a smile: "Whoever drafted this gift really has a heart." ”

Ou Cheng smiled: "You are not too thin. ”

Jia Cong snorted: "The boss is far away, what's the fun of sending some gold, silver and jewelry from Chang'an to Beijing in such a hurry?" I'm afraid that the serious New Year's gift that hasn't come yet is less thoughtful. ”

So he ordered the people to divide the things first, and then send them to the houses after returning to Jia Yu.

When Jia Yu returned home, Ou Cheng went to see him there. Jia Cong personally sent him out of the gate of Lixiangyuan, and then stretched his waist and lay on the kang for a long time. Sleeves bang up to eat. After taking a break for a while, he said outside, "Uncle Xue is here." Jia Cong scolded: "There are so many things! "I had no choice but to come out with my eyelids on.

Xue Pan saw him and bowed again and again: "Good brother, brother has something to ask you, teach me quickly." ”

Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "What's the matter?" I don't think I'm going to buy clothes for people. ”

Xue Pan said: "That matter is also one thing, and the important thing is another." ”

Jia Cong said: "Then let's just say that it doesn't matter, just what matters." ”

Xue Pan smirked twice and said, "My sister-in-law said that the cloaks worn by several girls in your family were excellent, and asked me if I might find them for her." She said you got it, where did you get it? ”

Jia Cong snorted: "It's inconvenient to sue you." ”

Xue Pan smiled and said, "Good brother, sue me, I'll buy it." ”

Jia Cong glanced at him and said, "Have you asked on the street?" Is there a place to sell? ”

Xue Pan laughed a few times, lowered his eyes to make a gesture of concern, and said slowly: "Brother Cong, my brother advises you a few words today, you might as well listen to it." That Miss Shi's family is a two-family family, and she is the niece and granddaughter of your ancestor, why don't you take care of her? Since she envies that, why don't you get one for her? ”

Where could Xue Pan come up with such words? With his toes, he knew who forced him to carry it. Jia Cong looked up to the sky and sighed, and said: "People, it's not terrible to be wrong, and it's usually tight to save face." What is terrible is to die to save face and not admit mistakes. "Because Zhengse said, "I want to come to the Xue family, and I heard that the two clothes were brought by one of my children, but I was afraid that it would be easy to tighten, so I said a big thing." Who knew that it was actually a foreign tribute, and the ordinary shops were not sold at all, and she was afraid that her face would not look good at that time, so she would trouble you to come to me, right? ”

Xue Pan blinked: "That's right." ”

Jia Cong said: "Brother Xue, your sister is really a bit troublesome. My sister loves to watch my sister's business, and she bothered to nag for a long time, which made people have a headache. I was looking for clothes for my sister, that was my duty as a younger brother, and she was not without a historian - even if no one had anything to do with me? If you are looking for clothes for her, what about the sister of the Xing family? People are so poor, but have you ever said a word? Are all the sisters of the relatives on the Outer Eighth Road counted? I'm more idle. I'm not like Brother Bao who wants to be nice to others when he sees a girl. ”

Xue Pan said: "Others naturally have nothing to do with you. This big girl seems to be only two years older than you, and listening to my sister-in-law, she is also a very good one. ”

Jia Cong was stunned: "Huh? What did you say? ”

Xue Pan is now narrow, and Tete went around in circles for a long time, until Jia Cong picked up the teacup and said: "My sister heard the mandarin duck girl in your old lady's house say that your old lady has been looking at Brother Cong more and more recently, and I specially called that Miss Shi to come back to Beijing." ”

"Poof~~" Jia Cong squirted out with a sip of tea. "Big Brother Xue! Why are you teasing me for the New Year?! ”。
