Chapter 247 The Principles of Being a Man
"Dear Golden Retriever, you haven't told me who you learned your Chinese with!"
Jia Qing paused and said to the golden retriever prince in front of him.
"Oh, I grew up in the southern part of the empire, and there are many people who come to Da Chu to take risks, and of course, there are also people from your Da Chu who come to us to take risks.
I liked your culture so much that I hired one of them as my teacher.
In our empire, many people know that there is a beautiful country in the East, and my father, the great Peter the Great, also longed for this country.
It's just that there are thousands of mountains and rivers in between, so he sent me to learn your culture and handed me ......"
Speaking of this, the golden retriever prince probably also knew that he had talked too much, paused, and asked again: "Jia, where is your home, can you invite me to take a look?" ”
Jia Qing said apologetically: "I'm very sorry, there is something at home today, it's really inconvenient, another day, I will invite the prince to my house as a guest, and then I will definitely put the most delicious dishes and the strongest wine on the table, and drink with the prince!" ”
After speaking, Jia Qing turned around and left.
Today is Jia Jing's birthday, if Jia Qing takes a few golden foreigners back, Jia Qing can't imagine the reaction of Jia's mother and others at home.
The head of the Ministry of Rites didn't expect Jia Qing to talk with a foreigner for so long, but he asked Jia Qing for help, and it was not easy to urge. Now that the two were finally separated, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Royal Highness, otherwise, let's go back."
For the sake of His Highness's safety, let's wait until next time when we are fully prepared for His Highness before coming out, so as not to happen again. ”
Although the golden retriever prince still wanted to go shopping again, he didn't want to encounter the same thing just now, so he nodded, and returned to the post house with his entourage and the head of the Ministry of Rites.
……
Ningguo's mansion was already noisy with gongs and drums.
Although Jia Jing himself did not come back, Jia Qing still had to hold his birthday, and the guests who should be invited should be invited.
Moreover, I just took this opportunity to let all my relatives and friends know that Ning Guofu had changed the principal. Jia Qing also needs to connect this group of people in series.
That's networking.
Since Jia Qing went out of the city early in the morning, there was a lot of work in the mansion, and the You family and the Qin family had to take care of it all, but they were very busy.
When Jia Qing returned home, there were already guests coming to the door one after another, so Jia Qing had no choice but to greet him politely all the way and go inside.
"Where is Brother Rong?"
As soon as he came out of the living room, he ran into Lai Sheng, and Jia Qing asked.
"I just saw it here, maybe I'm walking around with the guests." Lai Shengdao.
Jia Qing frowned and was unhappy in his heart, what is Jia Rong doing when he is not here to accompany the guests at this time? It's still early now, but there are already several people who have arrived at the house in advance, Jia Qing went in and said a few words with him, he didn't worry about what was going on outside, and he came out.
"In this way, you go in first and take care of it, don't slack off."
"Yes."
Jia Qing walked through the hall in the center and entered the inner door, and met the Qin family who commanded the maids and wives to arrange the inner hall. Here, the meeting is a place to entertain the orders and wives of various prefectures.
"Why isn't my sister-in-law here?"
"There is no one outside, my mother-in-law is arranging people outside, and it is estimated that she will be able to come back in a while."
Seeing that everything was running in an orderly manner, Jia Qing nodded with satisfaction, and asked again, "Can you send someone to invite the old lady?" ”
Qin said with a smile: "Mother-in-law sent someone before, not only the old lady, the lady and the young lady in the mansion over there, but even the aunt's family sent someone to invite it."
It's just that the old lady replied that it was a strange and busy place in the morning, and she couldn't come. In the afternoon, when everyone dispersed, she brought the girls over to watch the play and eat wine, and the family was happy. ”
Jia Qing thought for a while and said, "That's right, then the wine is placed in the Tianxiang Building in the garden." When the ladies and ladies from the various houses are dispersed, we will enjoy it in the courtyard for a day. ”
Qin Keqing smiled and said, "Everything is arranged by the second uncle." ”
As he was talking, Lai Sheng sent people to say that the sons and brothers of the Xiuguo Mansion and General Shenwu and several other mansions had come.
When Jia Qing heard this, he had to leave the inner hall and go outside to meet him.
This year is not Jia Jing's birthday, so it is not a wide invitation, only relatives and friends and a few good mansions.
It's just a mansion with average friendship, and it's generally just a matter of sending a housekeeper or a junior or something like that to the door, and there is no question of being lazy or not. However, if the people from these mansions did not receive them in person, it would be unreasonable.
Passing by Yimen, he saw a small guy holding a jar of wine and going to the backyard, Jia Qing was a little puzzled. I only saw fruit and wine being carried out, and this was the first one, so I stopped him and asked, "Why are you going?" ”
The little maid replied: "Uncle Xiao Rong and a few masters of the clan are eating wine in the West Garden, and ask the little one to come out and move a jar of high-grade bamboo leaves." ”
Jia Qing frowned and asked, "Who are they?" ”
"Back to the second master, the second master Lian, Uncle Huang, the third master and the third master and Uncle Qin are all here."
Jia Jing celebrated his birthday, and the family was busy, and this kid actually hid and went to drink. Jia Qingyuan didn't want to pay attention to it, but he thought about it again, Lao Tzu is busy all day long, and he can't let this kid be too idle, right?
"Go tell Brother Rong, just say what I said, and tell him to hurry up and go to the front yard to entertain guests!"
After Jia Qing finished speaking, he left.
He wanted to see if this Jia Qiang had the courage to go against his will.
......
"I'm not going!!"
In the Lixiang Courtyard in the northeast corner of Rongguo Mansion, Xue Pan said angrily to Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai.
Aunt Xue was a little embarrassed and persuaded: "We live in the capital permanently, and we are relatives in the world, and people are kind enough to invite us over to have a drink.
Besides, don't you like to eat, drink and watch the theater the most? There must be a lot of princes and grandsons over there at this time, wouldn't it be good for you to have a good time and make friends? ”
As soon as he heard that he could drink with those princes and grandsons in the capital, a touch of yearning appeared in Xue Pan's eyes, and he shook his head randomly and suddenly: "It's not that you don't know that he made someone beat me last time......
That's it, now that I've been in the capital for so long, he never said that he would apologize to me.
In short, I don't drink his wine! ”
Xue Baochai was wearing an apricot-yellow gown today, a honey-colored shoulder, his face was calm, he sat on the sandalwood stool, and said slowly: "Why is my brother so stingy this time?" Haven't you been the most relieved person in the past?
Besides, did you decide to stay in hiding and not seeing each other all the time? ”
Xue Pan immediately denied it: "Who is avoiding him,...... I just don't want to see him. ”
Speaking of which, although Xue Pan has been spoiled since he was a child, he behaves perversely. But he yearns for chivalry, and he thinks that he is a true man who is eager for justice and righteousness, and has a straightforward personality, not the kind of person who hides hypocrisy.
Although he is a gentleman, I have to say that this is barely a shining point in him. If someone else offended him, he probably forgot about it in a few days.
It may be that Jia Qing left a too "bad" impression on him, so he can't forget it for so long!
Perhaps, he felt a strong contempt and insult from Jia Qing's behavior and attitude towards him back then. He was already unreasonable, but Jia Qing was even more unreasonable than him, and a few words did not agree, so he even instructed his subordinates to slap him.
As the saying goes, hitting people doesn't slap their faces, Jia Qing's behavior completely violates the "principle of being a man"!
Xue Pan has always thought so in his heart.
Seeing that Xue Pan was still like this, Xue Baochai said to Aunt Xue: "Mom, forget it, if he doesn't go, let's go by ourselves." ”
Aunt Xue nodded, but she had another idea in her heart: Perhaps, it is time to find an opportunity to let Pan'er and Brother Qing meet and go away. If Pan'er can be like Baoyu, he can treat Brother Qing sincerely, and he can also persuade and guide one or two. Perhaps, it won't be as wild as it is now......
