When Jia Huan heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled: "As a junior, I should have immediately gone to the door to greet Mrs. Fengsheng." It's just that if you don't go home first to take a bath and rest, it's really a bit disrespectful to go to see you like this.

When I went out, the old lady at home repeatedly told me that your house was no better than others, and that there must not be the slightest rude in front of Mrs. Fengsheng, otherwise there would be no good fruit for me to eat when I went back.

Therefore, the housekeeper went back first, and said to the Holy Lady and the lord of your mansion for me, saying that I would go back to the ancestral house first, burn incense, bathe and change clothes, and then immediately come to visit. ”

The housekeeper of the Zhen family was stunned when he heard this, probably he didn't expect that there were still people in the land south of the Yangtze River who would dare to disobey the Zhen family's intentions, but ......

That seems to be a better thing.

The housekeeper of the Zhen family thought about it, and then smiled: "The slave said something that transgressed his identity...... With the friendship between you and me, there is really no need to be so polite, but since the third master has such a sincere heart, the slave is naturally not good to say anything, so he will go back and report to the old lady and the old man that they know. ”

Jia Huan smiled and nodded, and suddenly stretched out his hand to the back flat, and when Naransen saw this, he hurriedly bowed forward and presented a silver ticket with both hands.

After Jia Huan took it, he handed it to the housekeeper of the Zhen Mansion and said, "Please drink tea from the housekeeper." ”

The housekeeper of the Zhen Mansion quickly flashed his eyes from the silver ticket in Jia Huan's hand, and his eyes were instantly hot, but for some reason, he immediately extinguished it regretfully......

He smiled and said: "Originally, the nobles gave it, and our slaves only had to receive it respectfully." But...... Our government rules are upright, and we can't tolerate this kind of thing, so ......"

Jia Huan didn't insist on it anymore. In the look of remorse that the housekeeper of the Zhen Mansion was about to hold back, he handed the silver ticket of the Great Dragon Village with a face value of two hundred taels to Nalan Senruo and put it away.

The corners of the mouth curve into an arc. Jia Huan said: "When I was in the capital, I had already heard that the first family in Jiangnan was strict and strict. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name......"

The housekeeper of the Zhen Mansion smiled dryly, and then said, "The third master has won the award...... Third master, then the slave will go back to report to the master first, my master has prepared a big banquet and is waiting for the third master. ”

The smile on Jia Huan's face was playful for three points, nodded, and said, "Then, see you later." ”

……

After the housekeeper of the Zhen Mansion and his party left. The soldiers pulled out the horses of Jia Huan and the generals from the cabin, and four soft sedan chairs were carried out, and then dozens of people marched towards Jinling City.

When I arrived at the south gate of Jinling City, one of the cyan sedan chairs stopped, and an old man with gray hair came down to see Jia Huan.

Jia Huan hurriedly got off the horse, although he was the same generation as this person, but ......

"Lord Jia, the lower officials say goodbye. Xiaguan thanked the third master for sending him all the way. ”

The former Ministry of Labor, now Jinling should be taught by Tianfu Mansion to sacrifice wine and Qin Ye, and bowed down to thank him.

Jia Huan personally helped Qin Ye up and said with a smile: "Old Qin is too polite. You and I are the family of Qin and Jin, not outsiders. ”

Qin Ye listened to what Jia Huan said sincerely, and a smile appeared on the old man's face. Nodding, he continued to arch his hand: "Old decay shouldn't ask for anything more. It's just that he is nearly seventy years old, and he should migrate to the sky. Even...... The little girl and the young son really couldn't put their minds at ease, so they cheekily begged the third master to take care of one or two, and the old man was grateful. ”

Jia Huan said with a smile: "Elder Qin, although rest assured, the Qin family and Qin Zhong are now living in my Ningguo Mansion, and they are all their own families. The Qin family deals with the affairs of the inner house with his sister-in-law every day, and Qin Zhong and the second brother Bao go to the clan school together. ”

When Qin Ye heard this, he took another long look and said, "The third master is generous-hearted, and there will be great blessings in the future." ”

With that, Qin Ye got up and left in the company of an old servant.

……

The ancestral home of the Jia family in Jinling.

The same is divided into two rooms in Rongning, the east of the street is Ningguofu, and the west of the street is Rongguofu, and the two houses are connected to occupy most of the street.

Although there is no one in front of the gate, but looking inward through the wall, the halls and pavilions inside are all magnificent.

There is a garden in the back area, in which the trees and rocks are lush and beautiful.

Rich and rich.

Jia Huan led everyone into Ningguo's mansion.

Although Jin An is only the steward of Rongguo Mansion, but because his daughter Mandarin Duck can be used in front of Jia's mother, so on the Jinling side, he is the head of the two mansions.

Therefore, he also followed into Ning Guofu in case Jia Huan inquired.

Ning Guofu is in charge of affairs, but it also has something to do with it.

His name is Liu Cheng, and he is the maid next to Xiao Xichun, and the old man in the painting.

also has a son, however, he died with Jia Zhen at the beginning......

After asking a few words casually, he flipped through the account book again, and stared at Jin An and Liu Cheng with a smile, and Jia Huan sent the two of them away and went to the back house.

"Sister Lin, today is a good day to rest for the night and ease the pain of the boat. We'll leave tomorrow morning, and we'll be there in the afternoon. ”

In the back house, several mothers-in-law and maids were busy waiting, but Lin Daiyu's face was not very good.

Xu was timid about his hometown, or he got closer, and began to worry about Lin Ruhai's situation......

Lin Daiyu was not in a high mood, and after hearing this, she glanced at Jia Huan and nodded.

Jia Huan said with a smile: "Sister Lin is back in Jiangnan, if you have anything to eat and play, just go down as instructed." If you have any special favorite southern pastries, please say it. When my uncle's body is well and we go back to the capital, I will tie up a master and go back to see Tian'er to make food for Sister Lin. ”

The cowardly Lin Daiyu glanced at Jia Huan angrily, and said softly: "Do what you have to do, don't make noise with me, don't be annoying?" ”

Jia Huan was not annoyed, he just smiled, and then after giving Zijuan a look, he left.

When he returned to the main house, he washed up casually, put on his formal clothes and tiara, and ordered people to load all the local products prepared in the capital, and set off under the escort of everyone.

Although there are people in Jiafu who know the way, there are people from Zhenfu waiting to guide them in Jiafu early.

The group walked through the streets and alleys, and then arrived at Zhen's Mansion.

If it was said that before it was luxurious because the old mansion of Rongning Erfu occupied almost an entire street, then at this moment, looking at the Zhen Mansion at the foot of the Purple Mountain and on the shore of Xuanwu Lake, everyone didn't know how to describe it.

It may be too much to say that it is like a fairyland.

But if it's picturesque, it's absolutely just right.

This kind of scenery, such regulations, not to mention the prince's mansion, is difficult to reach even the ordinary prince's mansion.

In general, in the homes of wealthy families, at most they are carved beams and painted buildings, which are chic.

But Zhen Mansion even on the dismounting stone in front of the door is engraved with exquisite flowing clouds and water patterns......

The gatehouse of the main gate is also more elegant than the gatehouse of the Rongning Mansion.

The plaque is naturally also the book of the imperial pen, Jiangning Zhen Mansion......

The name of the current head of the Zhen Mansion is Zhen Yingjia, and he is the president of the Jinling Provincial Tiren Institute.

In fact, it was the Emperor Taishang who arranged it in Jiangnan and detected Shilin's ears, eyes and henchmen.

Zhen Yingjia is the grandson of Mrs. Fengsheng, and is the same generation as His Majesty and Jia Zheng, and is also of the same age.

Therefore, there is naturally no reason to greet the younger generation in front of the gate.

The person who greeted Jia Huan in front of the main gate was a young man of 189 and a young man of 123.

The young man was fine, but the young man made Jia Huan stunned, almost thinking that Jia Baoyu was coming.

However, if you look closely, you can still find some subtle differences.

"In Xia Zhen Fu, and the second brother Zhen Baoyu, I have seen Lord Jia. My uncle specially ordered my two brothers to come and greet him. ”

Zhen Fu was gentle and elegant, smiling, and bowed slightly.

Jia Huan hurriedly returned the salute and said with a smile: "The two brothers are polite, how can the younger brother be worthy of the title of lord?" If the world brother is not outside, just call the little brother Jia Huan. ”

When Zhen Fu heard this, the smile on his face became more and more kind, and said: "Naturally, I won't see the outside, you and I have a century-old relationship, where will there be an outsider?" In this case, is it good for a brother to transgress his identity and call a virtuous brother as a third brother? ”

Jia Huan smiled and said, "That's exactly the reason." ”

After that, he smiled and nodded to Zhen Baoyu beside Zhen Fu.

It's just strange that although this Zhen Baoyu is also smiling, there is a little impatience in his eyes......

Jia Huan thought to himself that there was no rudeness, why was this so?

Thinking about it carefully, there are few pens about this son in the original book, and I probably have some numbers in my heart.

This son has almost the same personality as Bao Erye, and even has more.

Girls made of water, men made of stinky mud......

That's fine, if it's a white and pure homogeneity like Qin Zhong, it's not impossible to intersect.

But Jia Huan has worked hard in martial arts for several years, and his complexion is slightly coppery, which is definitely not what Zhen Baoyu likes......

Thinking of this, Jia Huan smiled secretly.

After the group was polite again, they entered the house.

Along the way, the shadow of the wall, strange flowers and trees and all kinds of strange stones, hand-copying verandah, etc., are all idle.

What is more rich is in the subtleties.

All kinds of flowing cloud patterns and Wufu brick carvings, as well as many inconspicuous micro-carvings, are really "pleasing and convincing".

Even in the palace, Jia Huan had never seen such exquisiteness.

Under the leadership of Zhen Fu and Zhen Baoyu, Jia Huan went to Zhen Yingjia's study and had a leisurely meal.

However, the meeting was a little awkward.

Zhen Yingjia is a figure like Jia Zheng and is familiar with Confucianism.

didn't say a word after speaking, and he quoted the scriptures and talked about it.

Looking at the appearance, it seems that he wants to examine Jia Huan.

Jia Huan can answer with a hammer......

can only honestly reply, I have never read since I was a child, and I have never read even four books, as for the enlightenment readings "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Text" and "Hundred Family Names...... Ahem, I read it, but I can't memorize it.

As soon as these words came out, the Zhen family was full of gentlemen, one by one, they were simply "discolored"......

It was Zhen Baoyu, who looked at Jia Huan with admiration.

In a mansion like Jiafu, it can still do this step, it's too powerful! He's fascinated!

Zhen Yingjia sighed again and again: "Even if your mansion is a martial arts general, can it ...... But you can't ...... I still remember what a demeanor he had when the kingdom of Xianrong was there! The classic allusions of the hundred schools of thought are even more readily available. To this day, when the princes of Jiangnan talk about scriptures, they still mention the first Rongguo.

Brother Huan, although you are born in martial arts, you should not be here. ”
