Xue Baochai told Ying'er to go down and prepare a green cover bead eight treasure car, this car has a green car circumference, beads strung into Yingluo, eight treasures is the eight immortals in the hands of the magic weapon pattern, for the gourd, the hole flute, the fishing drum, the sandalwood board, the sword, the lotus, the flower basket, the crutch.

This is a kind of car with more gorgeous decoration and fresh and elegant, and there is no grade, and it is mostly ridden by noble ladies.

Ying'er asked Zhang Cai's family to prepare, the latter was in charge of the sedan curtain, Xue Baochai pulled Jia Cong's hand, and Jia Cong hesitated for a moment before entering the sedan chair. Then the sedan chair man carried it and went to Xue's house.

He rarely sat in a sedan chair, most of them were carriages, horses, boats, etc., and he was a little unaccustomed to carrying a sedan chair by manpower.

And it is also the closest to Xue Baochai in the past two years.

Time has changed a lot of things for a lot of people.

Xue Baochai still doesn't use powder, and she is probably thinner than two years ago, but with Baochai's slightly chubby and plump body, even if she is a little thinner, she will not be as weak as Lin Daiyu.

Her figure should be relatively strong.

Except for the squeamish desire to eat cold incense pills at the beginning, she basically didn't get sick after that, and her body was not in any serious trouble at all.

Not to mention Jia Cong, who has been exercising and practicing martial arts, his body is the strongest, and he now has the courage to say "I want to fight ten".

The two were silent.

With the swaying of the sedan chair, it gradually walked out of Ningrong Street.

Perhaps all couples tend to end up as relatives or friends.

At this time, Jia Cong suddenly remembered a mouse experiment, in which a pair of male and female mice were locked up, and they would mate frequently at first, and then slowly decrease, until there were none.

However, when another female is inserted, the male will do the same, and if the female is kept in constantly, the female will mate with them until she dies.

Although they are different species from mice, the dopamine secreted by humans and the stimulation they receive when faced with fresh, more women is almost similar.

Over time, the brain will naturally form a reward mechanism and fixed neurotransmitters, which are very bad for the body and spirit, just like addiction to toxic things.

This is why men should abstain and downplay this sexual aspect of addiction.

Obviously, fixed, few women can make men settle down and forget, although dopamine is a source of power, but there are many ways to promote its secretion, and it doesn't have to be that kind of hurtful thing.

I don't know when, Jia Cong felt a warm current in his hand, it turned out that Xue Baochai had slowly held his hand, Jia Cong smiled, and didn't think too much else.

In the spring and autumn period, the country was defeated and the family was lost.

The graceful thorn ridicules, and the quail runs and chases.

Therefore, rebellion is self-destruction, and greed is self-destruction.

As soon as the personnel are obedient, the heart of heaven is angry.

Cinnamon incense goes to the garden, and it is difficult to invite those who are not clean;

Apricot feast heaven's grace, can the stigmatized person get it?

……

The Xue family is also in Xicheng, near the Hengshu pawn shop, but a little far away from some of the Bagong Mansion's settlements in the center of Xicheng, because the Xue family is a family of merchants, not in the ranks of the nobles, and the location is not the best.

At this time, Xue Baoqin also came back with Shi Xiangyun, they didn't go all the way with Jia Cong, and after returning home, they went to the room to eavesdrop on Mei Kenian and Xue Zhen's discussion, Xue Baoqin and Shi Xiangyun are of the same age, have similar temperaments, and can talk.

This Xue Zhen's house is a short distance from Hengshu pawn shop, but it is about in an alley, Jia Cong and they arrived not long ago, the courtyard is a small courtyard, which is very different from the courtyard of Aunt Xue Xue Pan's one-room.

Jia Cong also had the right to go to relatives, and went into the main room to greet Xue Zhen and Mei Kenian father and son, and Xue Baochai also entered the inner room.

Jia Cong looked at Mei Kenian's stepson, a Confucian student, with a square scarf and shirt, but under a subtle observation, he was a little arrogant, no wonder, is this the superiority of the Hanlin family? Did I say anything about my double degree?

Looking at Mei Kenian again, a middle-aged person, but with a dignified appearance and clear eyes, it is not very annoying, Jia Cong coughed dryly and said: "Lord Mei is here to fulfill the marriage contract?" Insist on marrying my cousin? ”

"Yes, people don't stand without faith, and the sky will be bright." Mei Kenian said with a clear eye: "This agreement can't be counted, the old man still has the agreement with the second master Xue that day, and the handprint testifies, if Lord Jia wants to repent, the old man will sue the official at the lightest, and publicize it at the worst, I'm afraid the lintel of your Jia family and the Xue family will also be damaged, right?" ”

Jia Cong's eyes narrowed: "As far as I know, in Master Mei's imperial examination back then, there was a teacher who was Zhang Fenyi?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the room fell completely silent, and a pin drop could be heard.

Meknian stared and was silent.

"I know that the ancestral home of the adults is also in the south, and Dong Anguo, the test master of my township, is also from southern Zhejiang." Jia Cong's eyes only looked at the wine in the glass in his hand.

Many years ago, in order to deal with Yan Song, Xu Jie did not hesitate to marry his own granddaughter into Yan Song's family, and when he finally defeated Yan Song, his own granddaughter was also buried with him.

That girl became a victim of political struggle.

Jia Cong didn't know how many interests were involved behind Mei Kenian, but he wouldn't do this kind of thing until he had to, after all, there were many kinds of means, even if Mei Kenian was an official and had no greedy voice.

Unexpectedly, his son Mei Wenheng raised his head and said: "Brother Xue, my Mei family is a Hanlin family, your mansion has no official body as a talisman for these two generations, no matter how prominent the Wang family is, the Dragon King of Jinling has also arrived at the day of Luotan, I think my Mei family Hanlin family, I can also enter it in the near future, so as not to insult the lintel of your Xue family?" ”

is the so-called: please look at the talisman, put the pen sad and say the world, the author's tears are the same as my tears, Yanshan is still Dou Gongno.

Jia Cong's eyes suddenly turned cold: "Since the lintel of your house is so high, Brother Xue Zhenshi, let's not talk about this marriage contract." Although it is an appointment with the elders, it can also be canceled privately, and my cousin Baoqin has no such intention for the time being. ”

"That's what I mean." Xue Zhen also stood up and nodded, with Jia Cong's support, that kind of aura made him full of confidence all of a sudden, and his waist was straightened, and he usually didn't have this confidence.

Mei Wenheng snorted, thinking that he didn't know what to say, although he didn't dare to talk directly with Jia Cong, but he didn't take the Xue family in his eyes, this was probably the merchant in the eyes of the official family.

Shi Xiangyun in the middle of the room said: "This person is a Confucian student, looking down on people like this, Baoqin will definitely be ridiculed and coldly treated in the past, and even beaten badly, or Jia Cong's cousin refuses well." ”

Xue Baoqin blinked quietly, and his eyes were suddenly foggy.

"Master Jia, since Xue Zhen, as the elder brother, does not agree, the old man will not force it for the time being, but if you change your mind, the old man will still have to count according to the agreement." Meknian touched his beard and got up, but he didn't look angry.

Even if it is a marriage of interests, Jia Cong also feels that the Mei family is not as prestigious as his own, and it is not worth it, and Xue Baoqin follows this route, and the people of Bo Mingsi are destined to be a tragedy, so why not not fulfill her wishes and save this tragedy?

As for the matter of the stepson, it is not uncommon, after the death of Cao Yin's son Cao Hao, Cao Fu also came over to become an official.

Therefore, some people in Hongxue and Cao Xue believe that Jia Zheng or Jia Yu also seem to have come to Jia's mother's side.

As if this had never happened, Mei Wenheng looked at Jia Cong's glass reluctantly before leaving, and asked, "I don't know where this glass is sold?" ”

"The glass cellar on Ningrong Street is produced, and now it should be sold near Hengshudian." Jia Cong also suddenly changed his smiling face, like a businessman.

For him, officialdom is officialdom, shopping malls are shopping malls, public is public, and private is private.

Mei Wenheng bowed happily and said, "Thank you!" ”

Mei Kenian, Xue Zhen: "......"

Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Shi Xiangyun: "......"

Mei Kenian also felt that this glass was really novel, it felt very clean and clear to use it to hold wine, he just stepped out of the threshold, and suddenly saw Xiangling come out from behind, the rouge mole on the eyebrows was very conspicuous, and suddenly said: "I take the liberty of asking, is this grandma from the Zhen family in Jiangnan?" ”

Jia Cong seemed to notice something: "Yes, but Mr. Zhen is rumored to have become a monk, and he is missing, and the Snobbish Street Alley in Gusu has long been a rubble field, what's the matter, his family is your old friend?" ”

"It's an old friend, but there aren't many contacts." Mei Kenian looked at it twice and left.

Jia Cong was slightly surprised, only then did he recall Zhen Shiyin's life experience, when Zhen Shiyin rescued Jia Yu Village, Yan Zhai criticized the cloud: "Shiyin is really a Hanlin Wenyuan, not a money guard, and he poured into the 'Mu Ya Nu Ya Collection of Bitter Poems' once." ”

Even if Zhen Shiyin was also born in Hanlin, it makes sense that Mei Kenian knew him.

Jia Cong looked at Xiangling again, but she didn't have much expression, maybe she was used to burying it in her heart, anyway, the tragedy of "Linghua Kong vs. Xue Lu" has been redeemed by him.

Xue Baoqin came out obediently and gave Jia Cong a big gift, her face was like porcelain jade, which made people happy when they saw it, and it was no wonder that Jia's mother loved her very much when she saw it, and the limelight was close to Baoyu Daiyu, her eyes contained all kinds of joyful emotions: "Thank you Cousin Jia Cong, my brother and I will definitely give you a good hand!" ”

She looked at Jia Cong's eyes with affection and affection at the moment, similar to Shi Xiangyun before, Shi Xiangyun was watching happily at this moment, Jia Cong seemed to be aware, but she didn't think too much: "Okay, there is no need for the family to be so polite." ”

Xue Baochai's eyes turned slightly, he was moved and sad, and said in his heart: "After all, my brother is too much to Brother Xue Zhen, and I can't blame Brother Cong for not getting close to him, it's sad." But Brother Cong didn't treat my family as a pawn, which is gratifying. ”

She said goodbye first, returned to the Xue family's boudoir, discussed a few words with her mother, and leaned back on the bed to be distracted, this is obviously what she wants, but sometimes why does she have a feeling of losing something important?
