Chapter 564: The Appearance of All Living Beings (Second Update!) )
Perhaps since the end of the thirteenth year of Chongkang, Shenjing City has been suppressed for too long.
A series of major cases have occurred, and people's hearts are dull and breathless.
Therefore, when the wind and waves are a little calm, the nobles and nobles who have been bored for too long begin to enjoy themselves freely.
As far as the letter obtained by Jinyiwei is concerned, the consumption of wine and meat in the entire Shenjing City in the past few days is more than in the previous two months combined.
People are like crazy, eating, drinking, and having fun, getting drunk and dreaming of death.
The Jia family doesn't seem to have escaped this strange circle.
There's always a reason to gather everyone together and drink and have fun every day.
Even Jia Zheng has been the host once......
Today is the birth of Tanchun, such an excuse is naturally a lot of joy.
The two troupes entered the house early, and I am afraid that they have been singing for a long time at this time.
When Jia Cong walked up to the verandah of Rongqing Hall, he heard the sound of blowing and blowing, singing "Lu Zhishen is drunk and troubled on Wutai Mountain".
Jia's mother has a lively personality, and someone must do what she likes.
"Yo! Hou Ye is back home! ”
The few little girls in front of Xiamen were hugging together and looking inside, but suddenly a little girl had no intention of seeing Jia Cong's arrival, and said in surprise.
The other girls were startled, but seeing that Jia Cong's face was indifferent and not annoyed, they scrambled to open the curtain.
Seeing someone report inside, Jia Cong smiled and entered the door.
The drums stopped.
Jia Cong saw that the candles were bright, and the hall was full of pearls.
A pair of eyes looked at him with different eyes, mostly happy.
He also had a smile on his face, first nodded to the "birthday wife", and then greeted Mother Jia, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang and other relatives.
After calling up, Jia Mu first asked, "What is the matter with the Queen Mother's decree to send you into the palace?" But as people say, punish you for kneeling in the Empress Dowager's Palace? ”
When Jia Cong heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he said, "Who said that it spread so fast?" ”
"Huh?!"
With a burst of exclamations, Jia Mu frowned and said, "Did you really kneel?" Good manner, why did the Queen Mother punish you? But does it matter? ”
Seeing that she looked worried about causing trouble and implicating the Jia family, Jia Cong sighed and said, "Thunder, rain and dew are all the emperor's grace." The Queen Mother looked at which noble child was not pleasing to the eye, and there was also a punishment to get angry. ”
Seeing that he was so perfunctory, Mother Jia almost didn't lose her breath, so she heard Mrs. Wang say softly: "Brother Cong, what's going on?" ”
Jia Cong paused and said: "It's really not a big deal, it's the niece and granddaughter of the former Queen Mother, the Furong son looked for me and wanted me to bend the law for personal gain, and I reprimanded me in public." Then Mrs. Cheng Guo entered the palace today to complain to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother asked me to go to Cining Palace to kneel. It's over when you're done kneeling......"
"You're light!"
Mother Jia said angrily: "The girl of the Ye family is the niece and granddaughter of the queen mother's family that the queen mother values the most, and she has such a bloodline in her family now, even the prince and princess let her score three points, you dare to be so frivolous?" If the Queen Mother is angry and Feng Yan is angry, you won't affect the whole family? ”
Jia Cong was already in a bad mood today, and listening to Jia Mu's words again was really infuriating.
He said indifferently: "Don't worry, old lady, if something really happens, I will give up the title to Baoyu, and then go to the door to be a cow and a horse, and I will never be implicated in the family." Baoyu's face was innocent, he lowered his head, and was speechless in his heart, what did he do......
"You!!"
There are many things that cannot be said, and it is too ugly to say. Jia Mu was stunned by Jia Cong, who had sharply pierced the window paper, and couldn't get off the stage, with a face of shame and anger.
While everyone was shocked, they looked at Jia Cong's solemn aura on his body with his eyes down, and they all understood that he must be in a very bad mood today.
Jia's mother has been in the inner house all her life, although she only enjoys happiness and use in the second half of her life, but she is not an inflexible person.
What mother-in-law didn't boil it out of her daughter-in-law?
When I was young, I stood in front of my aunt for those years, and if I couldn't practice a good ability to observe words and feelings, it would inevitably be difficult.
This skill has been engraved in my bones for a long time.
Although it has been useless for many years, it is now ...... This skill seems to have a place to use again.
Jia's mother also saw that Jia Cong's mood was not right today, so she held back her anger, and only thought about settling accounts with this evil obstacle another day.
Mrs. Wang said to Jia Cong more and more gently: "Good boy, the old lady didn't mean that, she was just worried that you were young and vigorous, and you would cause sin and ruin your future." Don't think too far, you're sensible. ”
When Jia Cong heard this, he exhaled softly, raised his eyes, and saw that most of the people in the hall were looking at him worriedly, smiled apologetically, bowed down and said, "Yes Cong, I apologize to you." ”
Aunt Xue hurriedly smiled and said: "It's also embarrassing for Brother Cong, there are so many big things outside, and he is only so ......old, he is only so old" Seeing that Jia's mother's old face was a little unbearable, she hurriedly changed the conversation and said with a smile: "But what the old lady said is also the words of the old man, and in this world, the rarest thing is the word forbearance." I often teach you Brother Xue at home, and you must be patient when you are outside. It's easy to have a temper, but it's hard to endure one step. But endure that moment, but it can be calm. In this world, nothing is peaceful, smooth and happy! ”
Mother Jia was very happy when she heard this, and praised: "What Mrs. Aunt said is reasonable. ”
Seeing that Jia Cong's face faded again, Mrs. Wang hurriedly smiled and said, "The three girls have a child today, don't talk about this." ”
However, Mrs. Wang still sighed in her heart, this world is the world of gentlemen after all.
Once upon a time, the big house concubine who even had a hard time making a living has reached the point where even she has to look at her face and doesn't want to see him have a seizure.
It's not that Mrs. Wang is afraid of Jia Cong, it's just that she doesn't want to make trouble, and everyone is too ugly.
Rat-throwing traps.
Even in the depths of her heart, she still looks down on Jia Cong's background, but ......
Mrs. Wang also had to admit that Jia Cong, who is now in charge of all the foreign affairs of the Jia family, is already qualified enough to compete with the inner house.
And the inner house, after all, still depends on the front yard to survive.
Jia Cong has the courage to lift the table, but they don't.
really aroused Jia Cong's temperament, everyone came down to the stage, and the face of the inner house was lost, and he lost his foothold.
That's a big deal......
For Jia Cong, Mrs. Wang is more inclined to make good use of it when he is prosperous.
And not a confrontation without advantages......
If you really have any grudges, you shouldn't care about them when people are strong......
In fact, Jia Mu also has the same thoughts.
It's just that she has been sitting at the highest place of Jia's house for too long, so she has a better face and is more difficult to put down the shelf.
However, under Jia Cong's growing strength, she still knows what to do best.
Silence is golden.
After a few jokes from Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue, Jia Cong finally entered the table.
First gave the painting scroll to Tanchun, Jia Cong smiled and said: "Third sister, I wish you youth, such as the eternity of the moon, like the rise of the sun, like the pine and cypress, like the longevity of Nanshan." ”
"Good poetry!"
Jia Huan said.
Baochai, Xiangyun and other girls who read poetry and books all laughed when they heard this, and Tanchun first took the scroll with a red face, and then glared at Jia Huan angrily.
Jia Huan is inexplicable, is the poem written by his third brother not good?
I listened to Jia Lan on the side whispered: "This is a poem of the pre-Qin Dynasty, not written by Third Uncle Cong......"
Jia Huan's fart slapped on the horse's leg and lowered his head in frustration.
Mrs. Wang glanced at Jia Huan lightly, but Aunt Xue asked with a smile, "Third girl, what did your third brother give you?" Isn't it a word? I have long heard that Brother Cong wrote an excellent handwriting, and the third girl loves to read and write like that......"
Mother Jia said to Tanchun: "Three girls, since Mrs. Aunt wants to see it, let's take a look with her." ”
Tanchun's face turned red when he heard this, and he first looked at Jia Cong, and after seeing Jia Cong's head slightly, Fang got up and untied the red silk and unfolded the scroll......
"Ouch!"
It was Wang Xifeng who was the first to exclaim, but no one paid attention to her, and everyone's eyes looked directly at the four-foot-long scroll.
Where is the painting, it is clearly another living spring exploration!
The hair, the eyebrows and eyes, are so delicate that even the eyelashes have never been missed.
And that shallow smile, which added more aura and vitality.
That...... Well?
This figure is too expressive, isn't it?
However, no one said anything about this son.
No matter what, they wouldn't think that Jia Cong had any thoughts about Tanchun that they shouldn't have.
What is the difference between a serious cousin and a brother or sister?
They just think it's the same kind of painting......
"Brother Cong still has this to do?"
Aunt Xue said in amazement, her eyes reluctant to leave the scroll.
In fact, the sisters of the Jia family have all had the portraits painted by Jia Cong for a long time, but they have never painted such a big one.
And Jia Cong gave them sketches, and the painting style is always a little rough, not as delicate and expressive as this photo.
Think about how much girls in later generations love selfies, and you can understand how interested the women of Rongqingtang are in the vivid portraits of spring exploration at this moment.
Don't talk about them, even Mother Jia was even more moved at this time.
Naturally, she didn't want to take a selfie and stinky beauty, but what happened after her death......
If you can leave such a painting as a posthumous portrait, wouldn't it be like living all along?
For people her age, that's what she cares about the most.
However, Jia Cong, the unfilial seed who should have been beaten by thunder, didn't see the hint in her eyes at all......
But Xiangyun was direct: "Brother Cong, when I have a child next month, I want such a picture!" ”
After Jia Cong smiled and responded, he took out a brocade box from his arms, handed it to Tanchun and said, "Only one painting is still a little thin, and I just found it a little stubborn." ”
Tanchun put away the picture scroll first, and then took it happily, seeing the others looking at it, he opened it with a smile on his face.
When he saw that it was a beautiful silver box inside, but he couldn't open it, Tanchun looked at Jia Cong puzzled.
After Jia Cong took it, he fumbled under the box, then twisted a thing, and then released it, and everyone heard a pleasant sound coming from the silver box.
For a while, the entire Rongqing Hall, including the master and the maid, looked at the silver box one by one in amazement.
One by one, they were surprised: Could it be the immortal law?
While eating the meal, Jia Cong looked at the faces with his eyes, and smiled in his heart.
In fact, 200 years earlier, Switzerland, that is, Switzerland, had mechanical music played with clockwork.
Until now, although I have not been able to play the finished music, I can only produce a piece of timbre, which is far from music.
But it is enough to shock the people in the inner house, as if they are looking at fairy treasures!
With great perseverance, Tanchun took his eyes off the music box, handed it back to Jia Cong and said, "Third brother, this is too valuable, I can't afford it." ”
Jia Cong didn't answer, only chuckled, and said to the other sisters: "It's just a stubborn child, from the West, if you like it, I'll find a few more to send you when I get back." Today, give it to the third sister first, who let her catch up with a coincidence, just happened to have a child today. ”
Baochai was the most atmospheric, and said with a smile: "It should be so." ”
The other sisters also received envious glances and smiled at Jia Cong's gift.
Only Jia Huan, a pair of eyes almost didn't pop out, staring at the sound box in Tanchun's hand with a grunt, eager to get it immediately.
When he saw Baoyu smiling and borrowing the music box from Tanchun, jokingly saying that he would borrow it for three or five years, Jia Huan's eyes turned red!
He was about to turn back and ask his mother Aunt Zhao to come from Tanchun, so that he could play for a few years, but he didn't want to be given a head start by Baoyu!
Angry, he wanted to rush up and tear up Baoyu and recapture the sound box so that he could be his future heirloom!
That's right! He thinks this soundbox can be used as a family heirloom!
However, Jia Huan only dared to think about it, how could he dare to act rudely in front of Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang.
I didn't even dare to stare at people seriously, so after gouging out my eyes, I hurriedly lowered my head, and after a while, I glanced at it again, looked left and right and saw that no one found it, and then I glanced at it again......
……
Above Weishui, a three-story boat drove slowly.
At this moment, standing by the window of the three-story ship, in the moonlight, you can already see the largest city in the world in the distance.
Tomorrow morning, it's coming.
……
PS: Work hard for the third shift, really old......
