Jia Cong entered the house from the southwest corner gate, and sure enough, he was questioned twice on the way.

Although he said what Jia Lian ordered, the eyes of the two mothers-in-law were still full of suspicion.

If it weren't for the chance to meet Lin Zhixiao's family passing by and accompanying him for most of the way, something bloody might happen.

When he arrived in the kitchen, Jia Cong saw that the five large tiled houses were full of people.

There were thirty or forty people busy going back and forth in the kitchen, or killing chickens and geese, or peeling sheep and chopping fish.

Jia Cong didn't go inside at all, because he knew that Wang Xifeng would not be here.

Just as he was looking for someone to ask, he saw a familiar lotus-yellow figure, accompanied by several daughters-in-law, from the east corner of the kitchen.

Jia Cong's eyes lit up when he saw it, and his previously depressed mood instantly improved a lot.

"Brother Cong?"

Ping'er called Xiao Baoxia over there, and saw Jia Cong standing outside the courtyard, and called out with some surprise and surprise.

A smile also appeared on Jia Cong's solemn face, and he said with a smile: "Sister Ping'er, the second brother asked me to tell the second sister-in-law that there was a banquet in Rongxi Hall today, because Da Sikong and Guozi also came. ”

When Ping'er heard this, she nodded slowly, and said a few words to a daughter-in-law beside her, and the daughter-in-law hurriedly took the order and left.

I thought it was to inform Wang Xifeng and hurry up to make arrangements.

Ping'er turned her head again, looked Jia Cong up and down, and looked at Jia Cong standing with a smile, although she was still young, she already had a different bearing.

The face is even better than before, I don't know how much!

Therefore, he smiled more and more in surprise: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and my brother is getting longer and longer than before!" ”

The daughter-in-law who followed her was mostly Wang Xifeng's henchmen, and she also echoed and praised at this time.

Jia Cong said with a smile: "It's all taken care of by my wife, second sister-in-law and sister Ping'er." ”

Everyone laughed again when they heard this, thinking that these words would reach the ears of Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng......

Ping'er kept looking at Jia Cong's complexion, and found that his complexion was not bad, and then remembered what happened before, hesitated, and asked softly: "Brother Cong'er, I heard before that the eldest lady asked you to copy the scriptures......

Jia Cong nodded and said, "Well, the eldest lady asked me to copy 10,000 copies of the Sutra of Amitayus." ”

"Are you really copying?"

Ping'er asked, concerned and confused.

Jia Cong knew her mind and said with a smile: "How can you not copy it?" Sister Ping'er, rest assured, I only sleep less than two hours a day, and most of the rest of my efforts are copying scriptures.

Somehow, I have a relationship with the Buddha, and the more I copy the scriptures, the less sleepy I become, but the more energetic I become.

It's not that I'm lazy! ”

Ping'er pursed her lips and smiled, like a narcissus, gentle and delicate, delicate and feminine.

But suddenly, he frowned again, and said to Jia Cong: "Brother Cong, you can just copy the Buddhist scriptures, but you can't go to your heart."

You want to be the best person in the show, but you can't be a monk. ”

Seeing Ping'er's solemn instructions, Jia Cong was stunned at first, wanting to smile like those mothers-in-law, but he didn't expect Ping'er to be so worried.

It can be seen that there is a strong worry in her eyebrows, Jia Cong didn't laugh out loud after all, but looked at Ping'er with a firm gaze and said: "Sister Ping'er, don't worry, the three armies can win the commandery, but the horseman can't win the ambition!"

Don't say that if you copy 10,000 times, even if you copy 100,000 million Buddhist scriptures, you can't shake Jia Cong's heart. ”

Ping'er was slightly shocked when she heard this, looking at Jia Cong's resolute face, where did she still look like a child......

Somehow, she was a little panicked in her heart, paused, and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to have such a big ambition at such a young age, and the strange old man said that you will have a great future in the future."

Okay, since the master has invited you to accompany the guest, you should go quickly, don't delay the business.

I'm also going to help my grandmother arrange the decoration of Rongxi Hall. ”

Jia Cong hummed, didn't say that he had been "kicked out of the field", and said with a salute: "Sister Ping'er, goodbye!" ”

With that, he turned around and left.

After Jia Cong left, a daughter-in-law behind Ping'er couldn't help but sigh: "Although the third master of Cong is Xiao's mother, she is becoming more and more delicate, but she has no girlishness on her face.

It looks like it's imposing, it really doesn't make sense......"

Another mother-in-law said: "If his appearance is girlish again, it will not be dignified, and it will be easy for people to want to go crooked."

But his current demeanor makes people feel more and more good. ”

Ping'er listened to the discussions of the mothers-in-law around her and did not speak, and a throbbing flashed in her eyes that even she didn't know.

……

Jiafu enters from the main gate, which is the main courtyard.

To the west of the main courtyard, it is Jia Zhengwai's study.

Further north into the instrument gate, is to the south hall, also called the ceremony hall.

This is the place where Jia Zheng usually gathers guests for banquets, tall and spacious enough.

It's just that when the status of the guests is extremely high, or the prestige is extremely high, only one ceremonial hall is not enough.

At this time, further north, entering the Neiyi Gate, you can see a magnificent mansion.

It is Rongxi Hall, and there is a road leading directly to this place from the Neiyi Gate.

At this moment, under the corridor of the hall, twelve young men in Tsing Yi are standing respectfully with their hands down.

The crows are silent, waiting for orders at any time.

Twelve maids dressed in red silk jackets and blue satin knuckles, carrying silver trays, brought fruity delicacies and fragrant tea and wine into the hall.

Entering the hall, you can see a red gold Kowloon green land plaque when you look up.

The plaque is written with three big characters of Douda, which is "Rongxi Hall".

There is also a line of small words at the end: "A certain year, month and day book is given to Rongguo Gong Jia Yuan".

Under the plaque, the big red sandalwood carving case is set up with a three-foot high green bronze tripod, and there is a large painting of the ink dragon hanging on the wall to be leaked.

There are sixteen Nanmu chairs on the ground, and there is a pair of couplets inlaid with silver and ebony cards, and the road is:

The sun and moon are shining on the seat, and the front of the hall is dark and smoky.

At this moment, the Rongxi Hall, which was originally quiet all year round, was full of lively voices.

It's not a hustle and bustle, though, just small talk.

"Cun Zhou, Jia Jiayi has survived for a hundred years.

Before the dynasty was decided, the first Rongguo had already begun to be established.

It has lasted a long time, and there are many talents.

Why should you be too humble? ”

On the main seat in front of the hall, Song Yan said to Jia Zhengdao with a smile.

The topic of everyone at the moment is to start with Jia Jiayi.

Because Jia Zheng was the host, he sat on the main seat with Song Yan, who had the highest status.

Cao Yong, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and the priest of the country, sit on the left and right.

Further down are the Ministry of Works, Langzhong, Zhao Qian, Sun Li and others.

There were more than 20 people in the hall, but it was still not enough to sit on the chairs, and a small servant took a few chairs and arranged them properly.

Hearing Song Yan's words, Jia Zheng was still self-aware, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from Song Changong, the sons of Xun Gui, most of them are stubborn, and most of them are not successful."

The original intention of Jia Jiayixue was only to restrain the children of the clan, and not to bully others and act recklessly.

The Jia family is in charge of the school, and he is the grandfather of the generation, who is square and strict, but he is not outstanding in the scriptures, and he is not very famous.

I only hope that the children of the clan can be virtuous, know etiquette, and not be a disaster. ”

"Virtue, Knowledge, Non-Disaster......"

After Song Yan repeated it softly, there was a little more solemnity in his eyes.

Cao Yong and Li Ru glanced at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

Cao Yong sighed: "Although I have been studying in the Jia family for a long time, I rarely see talented people in the industry, so I think it is mediocre......

I don't want to hear it today, only to know that it is my short-sightedness and ignorance of Jia Jiayi's teachings.

Virtue, etiquette, and non-disaster.

If the sons and daughters of Xun and Gui can achieve such a situation, how fortunate it will be! ”

Li Ru shook his head and smiled: "This is true, but in my opinion, it is difficult, difficult, difficult."

Besides, the sons and daughters of the nobles who can cause trouble are not all bad.

Li Hu, the grandson of the founding father, and Zhao Hao, the grandson of the Xuanguo Gong, are famous in Kyoto.

According to legend, the two fought when they met when they were young.

When I grow up, I fight in gangs, and I am full of Shenjing's tossing.

Now I went to the Nine Border Guards, and when I came back, I met and fought.

Many shops along the street have suffered as a result......

On the thirteenth day, on Suzaku Street, it was not a few steps away from the Suzaku Palace Gate.

After the two groups met, they fought again, and finally provoked the Royal Forest Army to clean it up.

What a woe!

But when Li Hu heard that there were noble sons and daughters in the Guozi Prison, he didn't listen to the restraints and was lawless, so he single-handedly went to the prison and beat those black sheep hard!

Since then, no one in the Guozi Prison has dared to make trouble. ”

Jia Zheng said in surprise when he heard this: "Lord Sacrificial Wine, could it be that someone went to invite him to come forward?" ”

Li Ru waved his hand and said with a smile: "Guozijian has no friendship with the Founding Mansion, it was Li Hu who thought that those bastards had ruined the reputation of the military gate, so he went to teach him a hard lesson."

lest others in the future think that he is also a member of the high government. ”

Jia Zheng said with a smile: "If this is the case, Li Hu is quite righteous. ”

Cao Yong laughed and said: "But the young man has a good face, although he is indeed better than the bastard children, but in the end he is not as good as the children of the Jia family.

The children of my Daojia family are also the children of the public family, but there is little notoriety outside.

I see. ”

Jia Zheng didn't know much about the situation of the children in the clan.

Over the years, although few of the children of the Jia family have made a fortune, it is true that few of them have caused trouble outside.

Especially like Li Hu and Zhao Hao, who dare to fight outside the palace gate and cause trouble, it has never happened.

Thinking of this, Jia Zheng was self-conscious, but he shook his head and said humbly: "Lord Cao praised it falsely, and he didn't know much about the etiquette, but in fact, it was not successful. ”

Naturally, he didn't know that the children of the Jia family didn't even know much about etiquette, and most of them were eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling outside.

Even if they are allowed to cause trouble like Li Hu and Zhao Hao, there is nothing they can do......

There was no stage in Rongxi Hall, and there was no excitement in Shiban, a group of people were just gossiping.

Song Yan, Cao Yong and others fell, but Zhao Guoliang and Sun Ren were depressed.

The gap between their status and Song Yan is too big, and Song Yan and the others have always been rigorous, and they are not smiling in front of them.

Therefore, they cannot be like ordinary officialdom, and they tend to serve officials.

I can only sit dry, and I can't interject, which is really boring.

At this moment, I heard Song Yan above say again: "Cun Zhou, I have heard for a long time that you have a son, who is very lucky, and he was born with a treasure."

I want to see each other a few times, but I am hindered by redundancy, I want to be at home today, why not invite me for a while? ”

Before Jia Zheng could speak, he heard Cao Yong laugh and said, "Why does Song Changong favor one over the other? Since Fang just talked about the filial piety of the children of the Jia family, why don't they all come out and see them?

Now the new law of the imperial court has been reformed, the cabinet has reformed the rule of officials, and the hundreds of officials have been restrained from drinking and feasting.

Now that we have been classified as the old party, we should not bother the elders of the cabinet anymore.

So, today's stage team or something is exempt.

Come and come and save the week, quickly invite your children out, and let's meet friends with the text.

Doesn't the outside world say that the yamen of our Ministry of Industry is stubborn and rotten, and I don't know how to be flexible and enterprising?

He also said that Song Changong and I are the backbone of the old party! Ha ha!

Today, we are also full of youthful vitality and update the weather!

So that the little man doesn't talk about it anymore......"
