Chapter 33: Good Fortune
Just when Jia Cong was living in the small courtyard, receiving the phoenix egg Jia Baoyu, and the Sanchun sisters, and gradually chatting about the harmonious atmosphere, Rongqing Hall was also discussing this matter.
"Mandarin ducks, Baoyu and the girls have gone to Brother Cong'er!"
The old feudal monarch of Rongguo Mansion, who also stands at the top of the power pyramid of Rongguo Mansion, is leaning on the couch at this time and opening his mouth casually.
"Yes, old lady, Second Master Bao and the girls have already made an appointment with Third Master Cong, and now I am afraid that they have already arrived at the place!"
The mandarin duck replied softly, and said with a smile that he didn't know what to think of: "I don't want the third master to write a storybook at a young age, which attracted the second master and the girls to take the initiative to visit him as the author!" ”
"The children's playfulness is not to be elegant!"
The old lady didn't care, her tone was flat and didn't make the slightest wave, and she said lightly: "He should go to school in the clan school now, instead of being distracted from writing miscellaneous books!" ”
Obviously, the storybook "Young Hero", as the highest power holder of Rongguo Mansion, she still understands it, and at the same time she is a little displeased.
The mandarin duck didn't dare to speak, but in his heart he felt sorry for Jia Cong.
caused the old lady to be unhappy, and Jia Cong's life would not be better.
In other words, Jia Cong is really a little overbearing, publishing such a big thing, even the old lady didn't notify in advance, what do you want to do?
There is also the factor of Bao Erye, the old lady will never allow the big house to overshadow Bao Erye in the limelight.
It's not easy for Jia Cong to pass the test smoothly!
……
On the other side, Mrs. Wang of the second room also noticed Jia Cong.
"I don't want to be a big house, but I still have such a little ability!"
Regarding Jia Cong's storybook, Mrs. Wang, who is almost illiterate, didn't pay attention to it at all.
It's just that a mere concubine is still in a big house, so she is in the limelight, and even faintly suppresses Baoyu, which is what she finds difficult to accept.
"Madam, I heard that the third master of Huan is the follower of the third master of the big house!"
As a confidant, Zhou Rui's family naturally wants to share the worries of the main one, and reminded: "Don't let the third master of Huan learn to be ambitious!" ”
This guy is also vicious enough.
Mrs. Wang pondered for a long time before she said slowly: "It's not easy to meddle in the affairs of the big house, but Huan'er must be restrained!" ”
……
Jia Cong and Huan San didn't know that the two most powerful bigwigs in Rongguo Mansion had already targeted them.
Here, in addition to Jia Baoyu's always unnatural look, Jia Cong chatted very happily with his sisters and sisters.
After sending a dry warbler Yanyan away, the small courtyard where she lived returned to its former tranquility, and she couldn't help but chuckle and shook her head, and greeted: "Lingque, don't forget today's reading task!" ”
The little maid who was happy to clean up the room suddenly turned bitter, but unfortunately she didn't have the courage to object to such a task.
In other words, this era is quite unfriendly to women, and there are not too many words like 'women are virtuous if they are not talented'.
The big girls in the house are basically Miss Fu, and there are few who are literate.
Jia Cong doesn't care so much, since he has already started, he naturally won't stop easily.
Soon, in the remote courtyard of the General's Mansion, there was the crisp and pleasant chanting sound of the little maid, which made the dark night seem more secluded.
……
As Jia Baoyu and the girls took the initiative to visit, Jia Cong was very keenly aware that the attitude of the subordinates of the General's Mansion had changed so much.
Respectful, respectful......
He didn't care much about that.
Originally, he planned to slow down, but the looming peeping in the second room and Rongqing Hall made him change his mind to continue to keep a low profile.
Especially after Huan San was grounded by Mrs. Wang under various excuses and banned from copying Buddhist scriptures, he understood that it was impossible for him to keep a low profile.
Since you can't keep a low profile, let's just let go and do it.
As long as you don't violate the old lady's bottom line, and believe that this most powerful existence in Rongguo Mansion will not do too much.
Even if you are really disliked by the old lady, isn't there still a big man?
Although every time he encounters it, he inevitably gets a bad reprimand, and this guy scolds his son really viciously.
But Jia Cong is keenly aware that it seems that he can write "Young Hero" and have a little name, and the big man doesn't say it on the surface, but it can be inferred from some brown traces that he is still in a pretty good mood.
That's it!
He also doesn't mean to rely on the big master, which is very unreliable.
But as long as the eldest master does not object to his actions, then he can speed up certain actions and emerge in an alternative way as soon as possible.
does not stimulate the sensitive nerves of the bigwigs in the house, but can gradually gain the right to speak, this is his goal in a short period of time.
……
Before Jia Cong could start moving, a major event happened in Rongguo Mansion, which attracted all the attention of the old lady and the second wife.
After more than a year of 'trekking', the mother and son of the Xue family in Jinling finally arrived in the capital, and they didn't even have time to settle their luggage, and the first thing was to visit Rongguo Mansion.
The second wife in power, Mrs. Wang, naturally attached great importance to it, and took a bunch of girls, as well as the phoenix egg Jia Baoyu to greet her at the second gate, and by the way, she also opened the side door of the mansion, which was quite grand.
This matter has nothing to do with the big house, it is impossible for Jia Cong to stand guard to greet him, and it is impossible for the second wife, Mrs. Wang, to ask him to come over.
Mrs. Xing went to join in the fun when she was having dinner.
When he came back, he was very unhappy in front of Jia Cong, and said Wang Xifeng's hospitality and harshness in receiving the Xue family's mother and daughter, and finally said disdainfully: "What's the big deal, isn't it to rely on Rongguo Mansion to gain a foothold?" ”
Jia Cong was funny, of course, he was quite happy that Mrs. Xing behaved like this.
At least, this embarrassing person who represents the big house was not dazzled by the wealthy Xue family, which was widely circulated in the house, and it was obvious that the flower dew business in the past year gave her a little more confidence.
The Xue family was not surprised, and they stayed in Lixiangyuan of Rongguo Mansion, anyway, the entire Rongguo Mansion was boiling, of course, these have little to do with Dafang and Jia Cong.
However, when he returned to the small courtyard where he lived, he listened to the nurse Li talking about the famous palace flowers, as well as Lin Daiyu's sharp counterattacks, Jia Cong just laughed at it.
But it didn't take long for him to stay out of it.
Soon after the Xue family went to Beijing and stayed in the Lixiang Courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, Xue Pan and Xue Da were stunned, accompanied by the second grandfather Jia Zheng, and swaggered into the Jia clan study.
Tut......
Looking at Xue Da, who was tall and fat, Jia Cong's mood was a little unhappy, the arrival of this guy was definitely not a good thing for ethnology.
It's not that I'm worried that this guy will steal the position of the boss of the clan studies, but this guy spends a lot of money and doesn't have a fixed amount, and he is a 'sexual' person, so it's easy to make a mess.
It seems that this guy has to be made to know the rules of the Jia clan, otherwise there will be a headache for Jia Cong in the future......
