But it is said that since Sun Shaozong accepted the concubine room, the cheap eldest brother gave a new set of 'bed utensils', what Burmese bells, silver trays, sulfur rings, peep lamps and candles, are all finely carved, if you don't know the use, it is also excellent to use it for fun.

After getting these things, Sun Shaozong was not uncurious, but Ruan Rong and Xiangling refused to cooperate obediently, and he was not like a cheap big brother, regardless of it, he only wanted to make a profit.

Therefore, the utensils are like pearls, and they are completely useless.

It wasn't until this day that Xiangling was grateful, gave up her delicate body, and let it do whatever she wanted, which allowed Sun Shaozong to get what he wanted.

There are all kinds of new and exciting things that are not enough for outsiders!

And at the same time......

In the Rongxi Hall, the main hall of Rongguo Mansion, there is also a secret conversation that is not enough for outsiders.

"What, what did Sun Jia Erlang find?"

The person who asked the question was Jia Zheng, and I saw that he had heavy bags under his eyes, his brows were tightly locked, and although a few strands of white hair on his sideburns had been retouched, they were still undoubtedly exposed under the light, as if he was more than seven or eight years old when he was drinking with Sun Shaozong a few months ago.

"Nothing seems to have been discovered."

Jia Baoyu bowed down and said, "But after all, my son doesn't dare to test it openly, so it's hard to be sure." ”

Speaking of this, he raised his head and said nervously, "How is the master's side?" What rumors have been revealed? ”

Jia Zheng shook his head and said: "Although Lai Da is a wolf-hearted dog, he is also meticulous in his work, and there are no clues left in the shop." ”

As he spoke, he smiled bitterly again: "To be honest, if it hadn't been found out by Na Laida, I really didn't know that our shop had helped the He family smuggle gunpowder into Beijing!" ”

"It's also fortunate that the head of the He family didn't reveal this matter until he died, otherwise it would ......"

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he raised his head and wanted to say something, but his eyes fell on Jia Zheng's mottled hair, but he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

He was silent for a moment, and then directly diverted the topic: "Second Brother Sun suggested that I go to my grandmother's place, so that I can intercede for Sister Feng, so that I can avoid a quarrel with my uncle's family, and secondly, I can also take the opportunity to appease and appease the people in the family." ”

"As it should be."

Jia Zheng nodded and said: "Although your sister has been promoted to Concubine Xiande, after all, she has no son by her side, and our family is indispensable to the help of the Wang family at the moment." ”

"But where is the mother ......"

"Ignore her."

Jia Zhengyi waved his hand excitedly: "When is this coming, I only know how to calculate those who have and don't - besides, this Rongguo Mansion should still be inherited by your uncle, even if you have your grandmother in charge, you can't cross the word 'li' after all." ”

Saying that, he got up and said, "Okay, it's not early, you go back and rest first, and find a suitable opportunity in a few days, and I will intercede with you to help Lian's daughter-in-law." ”

Jia Baoyu obediently answered, bowed and exited the door.

Nothing to say all night......

Beginning in the second half of the night, it began to rain in the capital, and when the sky was bright, a layer of frost hung on the treetops and eaves, and the north wind blew and made a chaotic sound.

Sun Shaozong had been tossing for most of the night, and seeing that it was freezing on this day, he was even more reluctant to get up.

Lying lazily in the quilt with his eyes closed, he was wondering whether he should simply take another half day off so that he could make up for the time spent investigating and reporting yesterday.

But suddenly felt a chill on his left shoulder.

Lifting his eyelids and sweeping them, it turned out that Xiangling sat up straight silently, and was tying the rope strap of her belly pocket there.

Sun Shaozong didn't think about it, raised his hand and poked into the gap under her armpit, grabbed half of his conscience, and muttered: "I tossed you enough yesterday, why did you get up so early?" ”

Xiangling turned sideways slightly, so that he could move inside, but said: "Mother just arrived yesterday, why do I have a bed as a daughter?" ”

It seems to be such a reason.

Sun Shaozong sighed helplessly, and then stood up - there were just three juniors in the family, and he was an uncle, so it was not good for him to set a negative example the next day, right?

The two little maids outside heard the movement inside, hurriedly brought the change of clothes to the front, and took away the utensils with a red face.

Seeing that the two little maids were wrapped in cotton balls, Sun Shaozong asked curiously: "What's the matter, it's so cold outside?" ”

The two maids nodded vigorously, and one of them said, "Steward Zhao just asked her mother-in-law to come over and ask if we want to light the kang in our courtyard." ”

As soon as Sun Shaozong heard this, he hurriedly ordered: "Later, I will ask my aunt and wife first, she must be taken care of by her there, but she is not a joke if she provokes a cold." ”

The maids responded crisply, and Sun Shaozong instructed again: "Let Steward Zhao go to the library to see if there is any good wool that can make big clothes, if not, let him go outside to buy it quickly!" ”

"When the time comes, find a tailor and make three sets of winter clothes for the three young masters and Aunt Zhen's mother—they have just come from the south, and I am afraid they have not gone through the winter in the north."

The maids are busy and responding.

Xiangling had just put on a small coat at this time, and when she heard this, she stepped forward and wrapped her arms around his bear's waist, and the cat also rubbed and choked up: "Xiangling followed the master, which is really the greatest blessing in this life." ”

Sun Shaozong slapped her buttocks with his backhand and said, "You will have a lot of blessings in the future, but it is best to put on your clothes first, in case of a cold, I am afraid that I can only drive you to the guest room to live for a while." ”

Xiangling panicked when she heard this, and hurriedly pulled her clothes and put them on her body.

Looking at her well-behaved and lovely appearance, Sun Shaozong hesitated slightly, and then asked the maids to inquire about the eldest brother.

After confirming that the eldest brother had rushed back from the barracks in the middle of the night last night, he sent the news to him again, asking Sun Shaozu to accompany Yu Qian and others to breakfast, and he accompanied Xiangling to meet the Zhen Feng clan.

At the dinner table, he entered some filial piety for Xiangling, and promised to ask someone to help find Zhen Shiyin, who was a wandering Taoist, and Sun Shaozong ordered Zhang Cheng to set up a carriage and rush to the government to be on duty.

The wind, frost, snow and rain on this road froze Zhang Cheng enough, so when Sun Shaozong got out of the car, he specially threw him a golden bean and asked him to go to the neighborhood to exchange for some soju to warm his body.

However, after entering the gate of the mansion, Sun Shaozong regretted it again.

It's not that I can't bear to have any golden beans, but it's actually that several cauldrons have been set up in the front yard of this mansion, boiling a lot of hot soup to ward off the cold - sending Zhang Cheng away is really reluctant to seek the near and far.

Looking inside, I found that not only was the hot soup prepared to ward off the cold, but there were also more than 20 bald scoops lined up in the lobby of the mansion, burning incense and chanting sutras!

But how did this Shuntian Mansion suddenly become a monk's temple?
