Chapter 259: Gardening
Jia Cong's words really warmed the hearts of the girls in the house, as if they all saw the word happiness.
Now living in the gorgeous East Mansion, there are few serious masters in the mansion.
Even if the You family and the Qin family came back, they were still in the capacity of dependents.
Now that Ning Guo has been removed, they are cousins-in-law and nephews and daughters-in-law of three or four generations of blood, and there is no reason to meddle in household affairs.
Moreover, there are not so many decent old men in the house who have been poor for several lifetimes, unlike Xifu, where you need to be careful everywhere and not offend people.
Living in such an environment is something they could never have dreamed of in the past.
There are not so many masters and "mothers-in-law" on the head, everything is their own decision, and they no longer have to be confined to that small ink and bamboo courtyard.
Is there anything faster than that?
Therefore, the pretty faces are smiling like flowers.
After Jia Cong got up, Ping'er smiled at everyone and said, "Don't be stupid and happy, hurry up and serve the master to change clothes and wash, there is still a lot of work to be done today." ”
As soon as these words came out, the others didn't say anything, and Jia Cong was dumbfounded: "Old ...... Master? ”
"Poof!"
"Ouch!"
Seeing him like this, Qingwen and the others all burst out laughing.
After Ping'er glanced at Jia Cong angrily, she said to Qingwen and the others: "The third master has attacked the lord now, and he has gone to Dongfu again, and the eldest master is gone, what is the name of the master?" ”
Qingwen and the others froze when they heard this, thinking that this was really the case.
Then I saw Xiao Jiao'er turn over and kneel on the ground, kowtowing happily and shouting: "Xiao Jiao'er kowtow to the master, please say hello to the master!" ”
Qingwen, Xiaohong and the others saw that their faces were about to distort, and several people rushed up to press Xiao Jiao'er to the ground and ravaged him, scolding the sycophants, but Xiao Jiao'er laughed and gasped......
After making a fuss, Jia Cong touched his nose and said, "When there are no outsiders, it's still the same as before, master...... There's always something weird. ”
When everyone heard this, there was a burst of laughter, but they all made fun to arouse the master.
Ping'er scolded with a smile: "Okay, don't be really presumptuous, spread it to the ears of the old lady in the west, and send two discipline grandmothers over, there are a lot of yours." ”
Qingwen and the others changed their complexion when they heard this, and they were startled, and they hurriedly restrained a little, not daring to go too far.
Served Jia Cong to change clothes and wash, and had breakfast together.
When Jia Cong came back from Xifu after a circle, the main hall of the East Chambers had already been cleaned up by Ping'er.
The two rough envoys collected the garbage with wooden barrels and left, and Ping'er was discussing how to do a good job of hosting today......
"Of course it's in Tianxiang Building! It is tall, spacious and magnificent, and the inside is not bad with the palace. ”
Qingwen said with a smile.
When she was still with Mama Lai, she had been there once, and it was only then that she really opened her eyes, what should be extravagant.
Ping'er has also been to Tianxianglou, she thought about it and shook her head and said: "It's too much there, Cong'er and the girls must not like it, they are all elegant people." ”
Chunyan grinned and said: "That's it, if you want me to say, Ning Xixuan is fine, I heard that it was originally a place to invite people to watch the play and play Shiban." ”
Qingwen chirped: "Little hoof, you know a fart!" It's a place where the gentlemen are happy, how can you let a group of girls go there? ”
"Hahaha!"
Xiaohong and Xiangling laughed when they heard this, and Chunyan was not annoyed when she heard this, and scratched her head.
Ping'er thought for a while and said, "Now that it's just over begging, it's still a little stuffy, so it's better to go and tease Bee Xuan." It is in the middle of the mountain, high up near the water, you can see the scenery of the garden, it is cool, and there are no mosquitoes. If Miss Lin is here, she is weak and can't get on the road. Now that she is gone, the other girls are all fine, just going up and laughing. ”
Xiaohong smiled: "It's just that we have to wait harder, and it's not easy to serve the food." ”
Xiao Jiao'er praised on the side: "I'm not afraid!" I'm running fast, I'm going to carry the food box! ”
Xiaohong was angry and rolled her eyes: "Look at what you can, it's not as high as the food box......"
Jia Cong smiled after entering: "You don't have to be busy today, we don't have to eat in the Teasing Bee Xuan, you can eat in Tianxiang Building, and then go to the Teasing Bee Xuan to watch the scenery and travel to the naughty." Or swim first and then come down to eat. Huifangyuan is not small, enough to reward the stubborn for a while. ”
Huifang Garden was the predecessor of the Grand View Garden, although it is not as vast and gorgeous as the Grand View Garden, but it is also quite beautiful.
Pavilions and pavilions, rockeries and real water, flowers compete for glory, birds and flowers, it is very good-looking.
Although Jia Cong had never been in, he had heard Jia Huan show off once.
As the crowd was talking, they heard Mi'er's voice outside: "Yo! Miss Bao and Miss Shi are here! ”
After hearing the greeting, Jia Cong and the others all got up and went out to greet them, because Baochai was two years older than Jia Cong......
After leaving the main gate, I happened to catch Baochai and Xiangyun on the platform, and a few girls said hello for a while.
Ping'er was about to see the blessing, but was stopped by Baochai who hurriedly stepped forward and said angrily: "You are also arrogant with me, do you have to stop you every time?" ”
Ping'er smiled: "The etiquette is like this, don't dare to lose." ”
What else did Baochai have to say, so he heard Jia Cong smile and said, "Sister Bao is often Sister Ping'er?" ”
Baochai's face turned red when she heard this, and she said softly: "When Brother Cong goes on the expedition, I will occasionally go to the Mozhu Courtyard to sit. ”
Ping'er smiled and said: "Miss Bao often comes to send some fresh food and clothes, and the girls in the family have it, and even we have a lot of it." For a while, Xiaojiao'er saw Tian'er guarding the door, waiting for Miss Bao's things. ”
When Jia Cong heard this, he looked at Baochai and smiled, but he didn't even say thank you.
However, the more this is the case, the sweeter Baochai's heart is as sweet as eating honey.
Among people with hearts, the three words "not seeing outside" are the most touching and charming......
Jia Cong asked again, "Why did Sister Bao come so early?" ”
Baochai replied gently: "Come and have a look first, and see if there is anything you can do to help...... By the way, my brother heard that the Cong brothers were divided into Dongfu, and they wanted to invite the sisters to host, and it happened that the guy in his shop sent a Siamese pig and a few big yellow croaker, and a few baskets of crabs, so he asked me to ask the Cong brothers, if they didn't dislike it, they would send someone to send it.
These days, I have been getting the soap supply of Brother Cong Qinxiangyuan, even my mother and my brother, plus the sisters in Xifu can't use it, all of them are sold in my shop, and this alone has made my family's shop in the capital more economic.
My brother has always wanted to thank Brother Cong, but if he gave it with gold and silver, it would be really abrupt, and he also underestimated Brother Cong, so he had this thought. ”
Jia Cong smiled when he heard this: "It's just a matter of benefiting and not costing, and both sides are happy, it's not worth anything, where to use Xie ......" Seeing Baochai's eyes faintly resentful, he changed his words again: "You don't have to send someone to send it, I'll send someone to pick it up." ”
Baochai turned his anger into joy at this time, and Ping'er also smiled on the side: "Let's let people go to Miss Bao's house to get it, the East Mansion is not better than the West Mansion, and it is guarded by the old soldiers brought back from the battlefield by our master." Miss Bao couldn't see her by car, and if the person who delivered the things saw it, she would be frightened. ”
Xiangyun said with a frightened face on the side: "It's true, when I just came, I only picked the curtain and looked at it, it's really scary!" Third brother, how can you find someone who is physically disabled and so terrifying? Let's change something decent......"
Jia Cong's eyes froze slightly when he heard this, and his voice was slightly low: "They are not disciples, they are all my personal soldiers." They are the most respectable people, and some of them have saved my life by blocking guns and arrows for me on the battlefield. If it weren't for them, I would be like them today, with incomplete limbs, and I might not even have the opportunity to stand here. ”
As soon as these words were said, everyone's faces changed in fright, especially Baochai, Xiangyun, and Ping'er, who had quietly noticed what those pro-soldiers were.
It's chilling!
Jia Cong said warmly and comfortingly: "It's all over, you don't have to worry anymore, I'm not as dangerous as you think, it's just that once when I took the auxiliary soldiers of the wounded and sick battalion to rescue people, I was too close to Yaksa City, so I was almost killed, only that once...... But those soldiers took risks every day to charge into battle. Therefore, we must not underestimate them, and treat them well. ”
Xiangyun was ashamed and self-reproachful: "Third brother, it's all mine, not ......"
Jia Cong said with a smile: "Those who don't know are not guilty, not to mention that Sister Yun'er is not in her heart." ”
Baochai and Ping'er also followed a few words of persuasion, Xiangyun was originally a person with great strength, and he apologized for his annoyance, and he was no longer guilty and bitter, and he replied after a while.
Jia Cong sent someone to Lixiangyuan to get Siamese pigs and other things, although people also invited Xue Pan to come with him, but Xue Pan was interested, so he only shirked his invitation to the host next time.
At the beginning of the time, the three sisters of Ying, Tan, and Xi, as well as Baoyu, Jia Huan, and Jia Lan, all arrived.
At two o'clock, Sister Feng was delighted.
Everyone gathered together and walked to Huifang Garden together.
As soon as I entered, I saw:
Yellow flowers are all over the ground, and white willows are on a cross slope. The small bridge leads to the stream of Ruoye, and the winding path leads to the road to the rooftop.
The clear stream in the stone is turbulent, the hedge falls and the fragrance is wafting, the red leaves of the tree head are turning, and the sparse forest is picturesque.
The west wind is tight, the warbler cries at the beginning, the warm day is warm, and the words are added.
Looking at the southeast, build a few pavilions by the mountains, look at the northwest, and knot three waterfront pavilions.
Ears are full of springs. Don't have romance, Luo Qi wears through the forest, adding charm.
Along the way, everyone praised and liked it.
Sister Feng, Baoyu and others are all envious and gorgeous.
Ping'er, Qingwen and others saw that there was such a good garden at home, and they were happy to be happy.
Now that there are few people in the family, except for Jia Cong, a serious master, there is no need to serve others, and every day must be leisurely, there is such a good place to visit, how can you be unhappy?
At noon, everyone gathered in Tianxiang Building.
At this time, Ping'er, who came over earlier, had already led many grandmothers to set up dishes and chopsticks, and ordered people to prepare hot water, soap and handkerchiefs for everyone to wash.
After the sisters of Jiafu washed up and sat down, Ping'er asked Feng'er, Ying'er and other maids to sit at another table.
In the end, he went to the main table in the urging and greeting of a crowd.
Wang Xifeng laughed loudly: "Now I also have the appearance of being a grandmother." ”
Everyone laughed, and Ping'er shyly said a few words.
Wang Xifeng said again: "It's a pity that this mansion has just been established, and there is no female film yet, otherwise it will be interesting to be amused during the banquet." ”
Jia Cong remembered that there were hundreds of storytellers under him, so he smiled and said: "It's too late today, next time I will invite a female ancestor for the second sister-in-law. ”
As soon as Jia Cong finished speaking, everyone felt that he was warm-hearted, but they saw that two lines of tears fell from Sister Feng's eyes in an instant, and they were out of control, lying on the table and crying.
The voice is sad and distressing.
Everyone was startled, and Ping'er burst into tears together, and left the table in a panic and said, "Grandma, what's wrong?" ”
Baochai and others also persuaded each other again and again, but they couldn't persuade them, but they were infected by her sad cry, and their eyes were red.
In fact, everyone knows what she is crying about, but what can she do...... I heard Jia Cong blink and said, "Second sister-in-law, if you think your daughter is shabby, I'll invite you to a troupe, why be so wronged?" ”
"Poof!"
Sister Feng, who has always been persuaded badly, burst into tears and laughed when she heard the words, raised her face to reveal a pretty face full of tears, and said in shame: "The third brother is now older, but he is playing tricks on me, so narrow!" ”
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "I'm not a narrow, but I know that Huan'er is much narrower than me." ”
Because Wang Xifeng, Baoyu, Tanchun and others were there, Jia Huan, who had always been a transparent person, was startled when he heard this, and he didn't know what to do with him.
Tanchun also wondered: "How does Huan'er promote narrowness? ”
Jia Cong gave Jia Huan a reassuring look, and then said with a smile: "I remember that Huan'er only entered the clan school that year, and Mr. taught him to read and write, and asked him to memorize it, and he had to take the test on the second day." On the morning of the second day, Mr. really tested him. I wrote a handful on the paper and asked what it was? Huan'er replied: People. Mr. nodded, and added a stroke after the person, and asked Huan'er what the word was, and Huan'er replied after a little hesitation: From. Mr. was satisfied, and finally added a horizontal line from below, and asked Huan'er what the word was? This stumped Huan'er......
He scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time, and replied: Sir, is this word Kang? ”
The literate Baochai and Xiangyun immediately burst into laughter, because Jia Cong had told his family to be literate earlier, so last year, Ping'er Qingwen and others specially invited the girl from Tanchun to teach calligraphy, and they all knew thousands of words at the moment, so they also knew what they meant, and laughed.
Only Sister Feng was a little dumbfounded and didn't know what to laugh at.
is also stunned by Jia Huan, he can't remember this one.
But when he saw the sisters looking at him and becoming friendly and close, he was secretly happy in his heart, pretended to be embarrassed, and took a cup of fruit wine, shook his head and sighed, as if the past was unbearable, and he wanted to toast with the past......
But he heard Jia Cong say: "When Mr. heard this, his brows frowned, and Huan'er knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly changed his words: It's not a kang, it's a bed......"
"Ouch!"
Where have everyone heard such funny words, even Baoyu, who has always disliked Jia Huan, is lying on the table and laughing at this moment, and the others are even holding their stomachs, laughing so much that their stomachs hurt.
However, I heard Jia Cong continue: "When Mr. heard this, even his face darkened, Huan'er was afraid of being beaten in the palm of his hand, so he trembled and shouted: I know, I know, I must be reading the couch!" ”
Before everyone could react, they saw Sister Feng'er with anger on her face, slapped the table and asked loudly, "What is that word?" ”
"Boom!"
Xiangyun even fell to the ground with a chair on the spot, but he couldn't even care about it, and lay on the ground laughing fiercely.
The other sisters were also staggering, and none of them could sit still.
Even Baochai, who has always been dignified and dignified, burst into tears with laughter, and her body couldn't help but fall to the side, and her head was pillow on Jia Cong's shoulder, lying there smiling like a flower......
