Chapter 527: Aunt Xue's Birthday
Rongguo Mansion, East Mansion.
In front of two large rows of tiled houses near the forage field.
This is the place where Jia Cong's personal soldiers camped.
A clean and tidy vestibule with three stacks of haystacks.
On the haystack, three corpses were parked.
All the guards at home in Dongfu stood in the vestibule with Jia Cong with a solemn face at this moment, looking at the three pro-soldiers who were lying down forever.
For a while, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn.
Although it is not as beautiful as when Mrs. Xing was mourned, the atmosphere at this time is obviously more sad.
Looking at Jia Cong's expressionless face, although it was not as tragic as Mrs. Xing's crying at the funeral, this silent situation seemed to be more touching.
Even Guo Yun really couldn't stand this oppressive and painful atmosphere, and under the gesture of a few familiar guards, he walked to Jia Cong's side and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, we are the most humble soldiers in the Nine Sides. It was the Hou Ye who personally dug us out of the pile of the dead, and he didn't think that our status was low, and most of them were disabled, so he took us in and thought it was his own guard. This kind of kindness should be warmed even though the ice and rocks should be warmed. The lowly rank can die for the protection of the Lord, die a well-deserved death, and die a glorious death! ”
Jia Cong was silent for a while, and said in a hoarse voice: "However, I never wanted you to die for me. You are all my brothers and sisters, and my brothers have spent more time together than with their families for three years. I remember the names of each and every one of you, I remember Pan Zhu, I remember Yi Gao, I remember Ke Ying. Ke Ying smiled and said to me last time, when I am busy this year, I want to take a January vacation next year and go home to meet my wife, and I have already ...... But they don't want to, and they die because of me today......"
In the end, Jia Cong's voice and tone changed, Guo Yun and the others were all moved, and their eyes were red with ordinary but tenacious, even hideous and terrifying tiger eyes.
"My lord!! I'm going to die as I deserve! ”
Jia Cong lowered his head, shook his head slightly, and then said softly: "Send someone to send the ashes of Pan Zhu, Yi Gao and Ke Ying back to their hometown, and each family will send one hundred taels of silver." Tell them, but if you need it, just send someone to the provincial government for help. Wait...... When we settle down, we will bring the parents, wives and children of the three of them to Beijing, and we will provide for their parents on their behalf. Raise their children to adulthood and raise them into talents. ”
With that, Jia Cong took the torch from Zhanpeng's hand and lit three piles of firewood poured with fire oil.
"Three brothers, go all the way!"
After that, tears rained down.
When all the soldiers saw this, they all burst into tears.
In the distance, Jia Huan hid by the door, stretching his neck and reaching his head to peek at the movement here, although he couldn't see it very really, and he couldn't understand it, but somehow, his eyes were sour......
……
Ning'an Hall.
Jia Cong changed his clothes, cleaned up his mood, glanced at Jia Huan, whose eyes were red, and asked while tying a jade belt, "What's the matter, your third sister bullied you again?" ”
"Nope."
Jia Huan lowered his eyelids, sniffed, and pouted.
Jia Cong glanced at him and didn't say anything more.
Seeing that Jia Cong didn't continue to ask, Jia Huan was a little disappointed, so he simply said to himself: "I just looked at you like that, and I couldn't bear it in my heart." When Lian Er died, you didn't do this with the third brother......"
Jia Cong ignored it, he was not a person who allowed himself to indulge in emotions, no matter whether he was sad or happy, so he diverted the topic and asked, "Is there something wrong with me?" ”
Jia Huanchang sighed, raised his eyebrows, looked loveless, and said, "The third sister sent me to see if the third brother is busy, and if he is not busy, he will go to Lixiangyuan." Today is Aunt Xue's birth......"
Jia Cong was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Jia Huan.
Jia Huan also looked at Jia Cong with a small head, and after blinking, he suddenly couldn't hold back a bad laugh......
Jia Cong raised his hand and "snapped" on his little brain, and the painful Jia hugged his head and said "ouch".
But he still couldn't hold back his joy, and he didn't know why he was so happy......
When the brothers were making trouble, they saw Ping'er coming back from outside in a hurry with a pale face, and after entering the house, he looked at Jia Cong with some breath, and when he saw that he was arguing with Jia Huan, he was stunned at first, and then his body shook, and then he relieved his breath.
Jia Cong knew at a glance that she must have heard something, and after making a look and letting Jia Huan, the child, go first, Jia Cong stepped forward to look at Ping'er, who was still there and was afraid of panting, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?" Whose ears are so quick to report to God? ”
It is absolutely impossible for the pro-soldiers in the house, and these more than 100 pro-soldiers are the most trusted force in this world.
Never reveal anything about him.
That's the outside, of course......
Ping'er burst into tears, looked at Jia Cong, and then hugged him tightly.
Jia Cong felt that her originally soft body was unprecedentedly stiff, so she smiled and said, "It's not in the way, there's nothing wrong with it." Which one do you listen to? ”
Gently caressing Ping'er's back until she gradually relaxed.
Ping'er choked up and said, "It was said when the cousin of my grandmother's uncle's family came to visit her...... God, how can it be so dangerous? ”
Jia Cong laughed softly: "The world is like this, even the prince can have an accident, let alone me?" But in the future, I won't be careless anymore, Sister Ping'er can rest assured. ”
After that, he leaned back slightly, looked at Ping'er's tearful face, and kissed her on the cherry lips.
At this moment, I heard a sudden "pop" sound outside, and Ping'er, who was bluffing, suddenly avoided it.
Jia Cong said angrily: "It must be this stinky boy who broke the tea bowl!" I'll clean him up after a while! ”
Ping'er was shy, but couldn't help but smile: "Where can I still see the third master when I go out, if I break the tea bowl, I will run away without a trace." At the beginning, it was like this at his wife and grandmother, and if he asked him again one day, he would not admit him. ”
Jia Cong shook his head with a smile, and heard Ping'er say again: "By the way, I just heard that today is Aunt Xue's child, because the country is filial piety and filial piety, and you can't hold a banquet to invite the host, but for the sake of Miss Bao, you have to go to Lixiangyuan." I asked people to prepare a hundred and incense, a copper-engraved plum blossom three-breasted foot incense burner and a pair of small bowls with lotus petal pattern chicken hearts. Do you want to add something more? ”
Jia Cong smiled and said, "No need, that's all." Why don't you go along? ”
Ping'er sighed and said, "I won't go, I have to accompany my grandmother, although she is much better today than the previous two days, but she is still ...... Alas. ”
Jia Cong said: "You can also give her a little space to be alone, just think about it." In fact, she should have understood almost now, she is still uncomfortable, it is not someone else who is sad, it is herself, it will be fine in two days. ”
Ping'er looked at Jia Cong with faint eyes, and said, "The master sees people's hearts so thoroughly, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing......
Jia Cong smiled, hugged her close again, leaned against her, kissed her, and said, "Naturally, it's a good thing, I ......"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a dry cough with a somewhat immature voice outside, pretending to be profound.
When Ping'er heard this, she almost didn't find a crack in the ground to get into.
Jia Cong let go of her, picked up the inky satin curtain and strode out.
After a while, Ping'er heard someone's ghost crying wolf crying for mercy, and laughed.
……
In the small pear incense courtyard, there is a smile and a happy face.
Since the thirteenth year of Chongkang, the entire Shenjing City has always been in a high pressure.
Even in the first month of the first month of Chongkang's fourteenth year, the Jia family never held a banquet.
Trembling, walking on thin ice.
Now it's the first month of the new year, and it's the month of February.
Although the entire Divine Kyoto is still under high pressure, it seems that the bad luck of the Jia family has been exhausted in the first two years, and now there is a rumor outside, but it seems to have nothing to do with the Jia family.
Not only that, but the Jia family, which has been silent for more than ten years, has now become a majestic person outside.
Many orders took advantage of the funeral of the Jia family to get close to Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang and others.
When they reacted to this, the mood of the Jia family was still relatively happy.
Although even the death of Mrs. Xing and Jia Lian, especially Jia Lian's death, made everyone in the Jia family very sad.
But when the funeral is over, it's over, it's over crying, it's painful, and the living have to continue to be not.
Therefore, taking the opportunity of Aunt Xue's birth, including Jia's mother, all the relatives of the Jia family, except for Sister Feng'er, who was not in good health, all gathered in Lixiang Courtyard at this moment.
I want to take advantage of this opportunity to relax and relax the mood that has been suppressed for so long.
At this moment, Aunt Xue was leading Jia Mu and others to visit the residence.
Although Lixiangyuan is the Jia family's residence, after Aunt Xue's family moved here, all the furniture and furnishings were provided for their own family.
Jia's mother has heard that the Xue family is rich for a long time, and she is also interested in visiting at this time.
After viewing a few treasures of the Xue family's pressing box at Aunt Xue's place, Mother Jia smiled with satisfaction: "When I was still in Jinling at that time, there was a sentence that said that the Xue family was rich. It's called 'good snow in a good year, pearls like earth and gold like iron'. ”
Everyone laughed, and Aunt Xue said humbly: "That's not as good as the three of you, Jia is not fake, Bai Yu is a horse for Tang Jin." Afang Palace, three hundred miles, can't live in a history of Jinling. There is a white jade bed in the East China Sea, and the Dragon King has come to invite the King of Jinling! The old lady has the luck of three families alone, no wonder she has a great longevity. ”
Wang Xifeng is not there, Li Kun is not a clever mouth, Mrs. Wang is just smiling, Tanchun looked at it, and said with a smile: "Auntie's words are strange, how can the old lady monopolize the luck of the three families?" ”
Aunt Xue looked at Tanchun with satisfaction and said with a smile: "It's not difficult to explain this, the old lady is the eldest lady of the Baoling Mansion, and this is a family." Married to Rongguo Mansion, isn't this another family? In addition, there are your wife and Feng Yatou who are filial piety every day, and both of them are from the Wang family, which accounts for another family! Isn't there three in the United Communists? ”
Tanchun smiled: "In the end, my aunt understands!" ”
The crowd laughed.
Aunt Xue praised Mother Jia: "The third girl is indeed the best, and complains that the old lady likes this granddaughter the most." The other girls are also very good......"
Mother Jia smiled: "Don't mention her sisters, it's not me who flatters in front of my aunt, it's true, starting from the four girls in our family, they are all inferior to Bao Yatou." ”
Aunt Xue hurriedly smiled: "The old lady is wrong in what she said. ”
Mrs. Wang was busy on the side and said with a smile: "The old lady often praises us behind her back, this is not a lie. ”
Jia Mu smiled: "Where is the room of the baby girl?" Before my daughter left the cabinet, she was the most noble, I expected her to be a good one, let's go, let's go and have a look. ”
Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang's faces changed slightly when they heard this, but Baochai's face was as usual, and she said with a smile: "The old lady is wrong this time, I don't have those." ”
Jia Mu smiled: "I don't believe it! ”
Baochai couldn't, so she could only lead Jia's mother and her party to her boudoir.
As soon as she entered the door, Jia's mother's face changed, and she saw that a room that was not small or small was as white as a snow cave.
There is no one-color play, only an ordinary lacquer case, and there is only one earthen bottle with a few light plums, two books, and a teacup.
There is only a green gauze curtain hanging on the bed, and there is no color, and the mattress is very simple.
For Jia's mother, who has always loved glamorous and beautiful colors, such a house is not only dazzling, it is simply a taboo!
If this is in the Xue family, it doesn't matter, but this is the Jia family! At this moment, Jia's mother felt as if someone had built a living tomb in her house......
Seeing that Jia Mu's face sank, although she was not angry, she was obviously unhappy, so she heard Ying'er's surprised voice outside: "Oops! The third master is here?! ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
looked at Jia's mother, and saw that Jia's mother's complexion was actually soothed......
After Jia Cong led the two Jia Huan brothers and came in with a few color gifts, saw a group of elders, and said hello to Aunt Xue, who was full of joy, Jia Mu snorted coldly and said: "You are now a knight, and you are the king and hegemon in the mansion, I am more and more concerned with family affairs, I didn't expect you to make such a big joke." Your aunt's furnishings are naturally in Jinling and you don't bring them to Beijing, I don't want to theorize, you are also like this! I heard that you have always been close to your precious sister, but I think it's very fake, and I don't even give away some toys. ”
As soon as these words came out, Baochai's pretty face flushed, and Tanchun and other sisters were excited to quietly pull me below, and I pinched you.
No one expected that Jia Mu would find out about this here!
When Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue heard this, their faces changed, but neither of them dared to say no in front of Mother Jia, and they were really aggrieved in their hearts.
Mrs. Wang explained with a smile: "I gave a lot of originals, but she returned them." ”
Aunt Xue also smiled and said, "She didn't fiddle with these at home. ”
Jia Mu shook her head again and again and said: "I can't help it, although she saves trouble, if a relative comes, it doesn't look like it." The second is that the young girls are so clean in the room, and it is taboo. We, old women, should live in the horse pen more and more. You listened to the embroidery rooms of the ladies who were said in the book, and they were exquisite? Although their sisters dare not compare with the young ladies, they should not be very disrespectful. There are ready-made things, why not put them out? If you love to be pure, you can do a few things less. I'm the best at tidying up the house, but now that I'm old, I don't have the leisure to do so. Their sisters are also learning to clean up well, but they are afraid of being cheesy, and some good things are also broken, and I think they are not bad. Now let me clean it up for you, and make sure that it is generous and pure. I have two pieces of ladders, and now I have not seen them for Baoyu, and if they pass through his eyes, they will be gone. ”
As he spoke, he called the mandarin duck and instructed: "You put the stone bonsai, the gauze table screen, and a black smoke frozen stone tripod, these three things are enough on this case." Then I brought the white silk tent of ink calligraphy and painting, and changed this tent. ”
After that, when the mandarin duck went to pick it up, Jia Mu asked Baochai with a smile: "I gave you, cute pendulum?" ”
Baochai's snow-white face was flushed, but she was not embarrassed, and smiled generously: "The old lady gave it, and she naturally loves to swing." ”
After that, he quietly glanced at Jia Cong before lowering his eyes.
I saw that Jia Cong's face was indifferent in front of Jia's mother, and it was rare to be gentle.
My heart was as sweet as honey......
Watching coldly, seeing this scene, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue were extremely unhappy. This girl......
I heard Jia Mu snort again, and asked Jia Cong: "You went to the Bowling Marquis Mansion today, but you played a prestige again?" ”
Jia Cong shook his head lightly and said flatly: "I only persuaded my cousin, and let's see how he chooses." ”
Hearing this, Jia's mother's face changed slightly, and she remembered her nephew's temperament, where was she willing to listen to persuasion.
She actually looked forward to Jia Cong returning to her mother's house, she should play a majestic role, even if she forced Shi Nai to bow her head and lose some dignity, she would also be forced to raid her family and destroy the clan after passing by!
It must be that this obstacle is not careful!
Seeing that Jia Mu's face was ugly, and everyone was confused, they heard Ying'er outside shouting happily again: "Miss Shi is here!" ”
Mrs. Wang said curiously: "Didn't you go back in the morning?" ”
Aunt Xue also said: "You came early to kowtow to me, this kid is sincere!" ”
Jia Cong raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but chuckle, and said: "My own soldiers beat Shi Chao and Shi Wei brothers in the Baoling Hou Mansion, I was afraid that Yun'er would be affected, so I sent someone to pick Yun'er out in the name of the old lady." ”
"Poof!"
When Tanchun heard this, he looked at the various expressions of people in the room, and couldn't help laughing, and just said that he didn't play prestige......
When Jia Mu heard this, she was even more annoyed, and she almost couldn't breathe, forgetting her previous thoughts......
