April is over, and midsummer has arrived. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Near noon, Jia Qing was writing a manuscript in the small study......

The so-called writing of manuscripts is just reading serious books, which is a little boring and practicing words.

It's just that the pure practice of calligraphy is a little boring, Jia Qing simply wrote out the moving stories that are well known in later generations but little known in this life.

Of course, you can't copy it rigidly, after all, in later generations, such as Jin Yong's martial arts novels, many things cannot be accepted by this era. This kind of thing is where it has to be compiled and perfected separately.

In fact, as early as three years ago, when he was bored on the boat when he went down to the south of the Yangtze River, Jia Qing began to do this. It's just that it's easy to say, but it's time-consuming. Jia Qing is not too idle, so it was not until today that he was able to complete two books.

He plans to check these two more times and find a time to publish them. In the end, it can be regarded as his work.

The dragon flew and the phoenix danced, and between splashing ink, Jia Qing wrote the last line of the epilogue of the second book.

Putting down the wolf pen in his hand, Jia Qing looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.

On the table, there is a small stack of rice paper, all of which are manuscripts he wrote word by word.

"Second master, the little guy outside the second gate came in and said that the wife of the Xue family had entered Beijing with her brother and sister! Now it's in front of the Xifu Gate. ”

This is the voice of the mother-in-law in the courtyard.

Since Jia Qing's status in Jiafu has been continuously improved, his personal entourage, Li Yan and Wang Shun, have also received many "surrenders" from the people of the two mansions.

Jia Qing also intended to let the two of them monitor the movements of the two mansions, so he instructed them to buy the servants and porters everywhere. Under the temptation of money and interests, they can basically get the news whenever something happens in the two governments. Like the Xue family's entry into Beijing, Jia Qing instructed Li Yan and them to pay attention to it early in the morning, so after getting the news, he reported it to Jia Qing as soon as possible.

Jia Qing said to the outside that he knew, and said to Pei Feng, who was waiting in the room: "Help me dry these manuscripts that haven't been dried yet, put them away together, and put them in the box where I put the manuscripts before, don't break them." I'll go to Xifu to have a look. ”

Where did Pei Feng use Jia Qing to explain, she was basically in charge of the things in Jia Qing's study, and she knew everything about her second master. Without raising his head, he urged: "I know the second master, you can go with confidence." ”

She has to study what the second master wrote, it's so interesting.

After returning to Qingju to change his clothes, Jia Qingzheng was about to go out to Rongguo Mansion, and another maid came to report: "Second master, Chief Manager Lai sent someone to spread the word that a son surnamed Liu came to you and asked the second master if he wanted to see him?" ”

surnamed Liu, who came to him at this time, there should only be Liu Xianglian. Good guy, I haven't heard from him for three years, Jia Qing still thinks he's hanging! After thinking about it, I think it's better to go and see Liu Xianglian first, and now I go to see the mother and son of the Xue family, I don't know if people have forgotten the things in Jinling City!

"You go back and tell Manager Lai to arrange people in the side hall. I'll be out later. ”

"Yes."

The maid got an answer and went back.

Jia Qing also left Yipintang shortly afterwards and went to the front house.

"When did Brother Liu come back, he didn't send someone to tell the younger brother, and the younger brother was ......."

When he arrived at the side hall, through the curtain, Jia Qing was sure that the person who came was indeed Liu Xianglian, so he came out of the back hall with a loud laugh. It's just that before he finished speaking, he was stunned.

"Ahem, Brother Jia Xian......"

A person with a sluggish and pale face stood up, although his face was smiling, it was difficult for Jia Qing to match the personable young chivalrous Liu Xianglian before.

Today's Liu Xianglian looks like a weathered old man.

"Brother Liu, what are you?"

Liu Xianglian seemed to have expected Jia Qing's reaction, smiled lightly, and then said, "I'm fine, I just look embarrassed." ”

Jia Qing took a closer look, and sure enough, there was no pain except for describing the pickled food, so he put his mind at ease and said, "In this way, I will arrange for someone to take Brother Liu down to take a bath, and then we will talk again......"

"No, I don't hide it, I still have important things to do at this time, but when I arrived in Beijing, I really missed my virtuous brother, so I came to visit in such a situation, and I really didn't dare to delay.

Now that people have seen it, the foolish brother's fast horse has also been prepared, and he is about to go south, please take care of the virtuous brother! ”

Liu Xianglian said that she was about to get up and say goodbye. Jia Qing hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him, and said:

"What is so urgent, Brother Liu also said to let the younger brother know, or can he help a little bit?

If Brother Liu leaves like this, how can the little brother be at peace in his heart? Isn't it, is Brother Liu taking his younger brother as an outsider? ”

Liu Xianglian frowned when she heard this, and finally said with relief: "In this way, I didn't think about it!" It's okay, it was originally just my personal matter, but now I have to gossip with my virtuous brother. ”

Jia Qingdao said: "I wish to listen to you!" ”

……

Rongguo Mansion.

Since Mrs. Wang got her sister and her two children to the front of the house, she hurriedly sent someone to inform Jia's mother, and she led Zhou Rui's family and a group of maids and mothers-in-law to welcome out of the second gate.

Jia's mother is a lively person, and with distant relatives coming to the door, it is exactly what should be well received. So after getting the letter, he hurriedly took Li Kun, Wang Xifeng, Sanchun and other grandchildren to wait under the eaves outside the main hall of Rongqing Hall.

Everyone had a smile on their faces, after all, in a family like the Xue family and the Jia family, there are still very few things like this kind of family visit. One by one, it can be expected that the days to come will definitely be more lively.

"I heard that my aunt's family has a sister named Baochai, who has excellent character and appearance."

Under the eaves of the corridor on the left side of Rongqing Hall, the Sanchun sisters gathered together and whispered.

Jia Baoyu was originally standing beside Daiyu, but when she heard this, she moved her steps and interjected with a smile: "Extremely, I often hear my wife say that this cousin not only has a good life, but also has first-class literary talent and moral character!" And he is very kind and kind, not a narrow-minded person. ”

"Hmph."

As soon as Jia Baoyu's voice fell, he heard a snort from the side.

He subconsciously looked back, there was nothing, Lin Daiyu was concentrating on looking towards the hall.

God is pitiful, Jia Baoyu's words are really just relaying the evaluation he heard about Xue Baochai in Mrs. Wang's room, where did he think that he would offend Sister Lin's careful eyes.

Seeing Tanchun and Yingchun snickering on the side, Jia Baoyu smiled and said no more.

After a while, everyone saw a group of people coming out of the last hall when they looked through the hall.

When they got closer, everyone saw that Mrs. Wang was holding a woman of the same age as her, who should be Mrs. Wang's sister-in-law, Aunt Xue. Wang Xifeng also supported one person in the back, and followed many maids and sisters-in-law.

Jia Mu led everyone down the steps and went to the court to greet the visitors.

"Greetings to the old lady!"

Aunt Xue stepped forward and bowed to Mother Jia.

Mother Jia hurriedly pulled her up, and the two exchanged a few words of greeting, and then Aunt Xue turned back to a woman behind her and said, "Baochai, hurry up and say hello to the old lady." ”

Everyone in the court looked at the girl behind Aunt Xue, wearing a big red cloak, with a plump face and a slim face.

A maid had already placed a kneeling mat in the court, Xue Baochai stepped forward, knelt down respectfully, and said to Jia's mother: "Please ...... you well."

The sound is pleasant to the ear.

"Okay, good boy, get up."

Jia Mu said in a stacked voice.

The Sanchun sisters had already run to the front, and when they saw this, they hurriedly pulled Xue Baochai up and said, "Sister, you're here, we've been looking forward to you for a long time......"

Xue Baochai looked at the gorgeously dressed, good-looking, and lively Sanchun sisters in front of him, with a warm smile on her face.

Jia Baoyu also followed and looked around Xue Baochai.

In this way, Mother Jia and Aunt Xue waited on the side to greet each other. The sisters pulled Xue Baochai to ask questions, and even Lin Daiyu in the back stepped forward to see what kind of character this Sister Bao was who had already become famous before entering the mansion!

The scene is lively and unparalleled.
