Chapter 260: The Prince of the Hou Mansion
The two sons of Wudehou's Mansion were originally well-known gentlemen in Beijing, and they didn't know anything like this, they didn't know about it, they didn't know it, they didn't love it; But if you take piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you can understand everything; As for kicking balls and playing games, tasting bamboo and adjusting silk, blowing and singing and dancing, needless to say.
Since that day in the prince's mansion by chance to meet Xuejian, He Jialuo quickly told his brother, although He Jia'an didn't believe that there could be an average person in the world, and he thought that his younger brother was blind, but after listening to He Jialuo's description over and over again how beautiful the girl ring was, how coquettish and soft-spoken, and how charming and seductive, He Jia'an was also moved, so the two brothers found excuses to visit every day, but they were basically rejected by Nan Gubo under various excuses.
The two young masters of the Hou Mansion came with enthusiasm, ready to find another opportunity to meet the little girl who looked exactly like Zixin, and listened to He Jialuo say that although this girl's voice is as crisp and graceful as a yellow warbler, there is another kind of seductive charm in the darkness, and compared with the astringency of Zixin, there is more charm and romance that people can't take their eyes off. Such a girl was actually regarded as a third-class girl by Nangu Bo, this, this, this is simply a tyrannical thing, and people and gods are angry!
The two young masters of the Hou Mansion have a common understanding, and a third-class girl ring in your Shizi Mansion must be dispensable, even if our brother asks for it, you are embarrassed not to give it. Of course, if you really go to the Wude Hou Mansion, who is this girl going to serve, that is a later story, the Hou Mansion has always been a brother and a brother, and if she wants to be a brother, she should not compete with herself.
After being rejected again by the doorman of the Shizi Mansion on the grounds that the prince was not at home, the enthusiasm of the two was not extinguished much. My sister has been married for two years, and the two of them are not so stupid that they can't even tell the attitude that Nan Gubo attaches to them, despises them in his eyes, and ignores them in his heart, especially after his sister is bedridden, and his brother-in-law is even more lazy to pay attention to them. The two of them felt ashamed, my sister is like this now, and I think it is because of the events of the past, alas, it is the Wudehou Mansion that can't live with the prince, even if you look at his face, for the sake of the sister, it should be.
On the way home, the two discussed, and when they went home, they were ready to study hard, hoping that they would be able to take the Jinshi exam in the coming year. I heard that the prince is now discussing relatives, and everyone in the capital is rushing to enter the prince's mansion, and they all say that it will be decided when spring opens next year, and it is estimated that they will enter the door by the end of next year.
After returning home, the two naturally vowed to encourage each other, but after this enthusiasm lasted for half an hour, He Jialuo's attention was attracted by the Yahuan who served on the side, the Yahuan leaned slightly when grinding, although the weather was cold, but the collar was very low, and this leaning down would inevitably reveal the undulating hills and ravines. I don't know why, He Jialuo thought of the snow he met two days ago, the previous purple heart, it was not that he had not been pressed on the grass to take advantage of his mouth, but she was too young at the time, and she really couldn't do it, and she thought that it would be the meat in her bowl sooner or later, so she just let her go every time.
Thinking about it like this, it is inevitable that his heart will become irritated, and he will look at the girl ring again, always rubbing beside him, He Jialuo will press her on the desk, and the girl will shout softly, "Don't, second young master, don't ......" A pair of arms were tightly wrapped. He Jialuo felt that the sage also said that eating and drinking men and women are the great desires of people. It would be better to meet this physical need first, and then study refreshed, and the efficiency would be higher, so he took off his clothes impatiently.
The eldest young master of the He family just stepped into the study with his front feet, and was invited by a group of friends to go to the Qinglou prostitutes, He Jia's peace of mind thought, even if he worked hard, but he couldn't make himself forget the social activities he should have, and he and his friends were prostitutes, that was also a way to maintain their own connections.
Before going, He Jia'an also swore to tell his girl that he would come back at night to read at night. Yes, only this kind of staying up late and studying hard can have a learning atmosphere, and the effect will be better!
When the prostitute returned, He Jia'an's legs were a little weak, he originally wanted to taste poetry papers with a few friends in the Qinglou, but he didn't expect that from afternoon to evening, a few new fans in Baihualou were so affectionate, He Jia'an was always a soft-hearted person, and he couldn't see a few lines of tears in a woman's eyes, anyway, he came to the Qinglou, can't he come in vain?
When I got home in the evening, He Jia'an really felt tired, studying in this situation is too inefficient, it is better to rest early, and get up early tomorrow to study hard.
The next day, the brothers of the He family slept comfortably, and woke up leisurely until noon, and went to the prince's mansion again, and was told that the prince had entered the palace, so he returned home and was about to pick up the book and study hard, this time He Jialuo was asked away by a group of friends, saying that it was a gathering of businessmen's children. Wu Dehou's wealth depends on the filial piety of these people, how can he not give face? And for such a thing as reading, you can't be in a hurry.
It wasn't until a few days later that Wu Dehou sat down at home with a haggard heart, called the two sisters-in-law in front of him, and asked with a gloomy face: "Your sister is sick like that, but you don't care at all as a brother, Nan Gubo will marry the princess again next year, do you think we can still be as bright as the prince of the world?" ”
After the turmoil of that year, although the Wudehou Mansion was saved from the disaster because of Jinyang's harmony, in the end, the vitality was not harmed, and he did not dare to openly collect wealth as before, and he already had a faint feeling of sitting on the mountain.
He Jia'an naturally shook his head and said: "How can you not be careful, you also know my father, in addition to being greedy for fun, but in this matter, I have always been actively looking for the folk Xinglin Holy Hand." ”
He Jialuo also shouted again and again, his time in the study is much better than that of his eldest brother, this is a manifestation of hard work, he just wants to take the road of the imperial examination to revitalize the family business, is it wrong?
Wu Dehou's face became more and more haggard: "Then why did I hear that Erlang took a fancy to a servant girl in the Shizi's house, and you will run to the Shizi's mansion every day in the past two days?" If it weren't for the fact that you were too ridiculous and your own in-laws, how could Nan Gu Bo turn you away every day? ”
He Jialuo listened to his father's words, but his eyes lit up, "What maid?" It was clearly a purple ......" but was interrupted by the eldest brother in the court: "It turns out that you used to do this kind of thing, and I still thought you were thinking about visiting your sister." "Don't you know what your father thought about Purple Heart at the beginning?
"It's really to visit your sister, Nangu Bo kid, how dare you refuse so blatantly?" Wu Dehou sneered like this, he naturally knew what the two sons looked like, and he didn't expect them to make a name for themselves, he just hoped that they would cause less trouble.
When He Jialuo heard this, he rolled his eyes and said: "Then Nan Gubo will not really heal his sister if he wants to, I, as the second brother, have been paying attention." When I went out two days ago, someone also recommended a traveling doctor to me, but that person was a businessman who had just come to the capital to open a shop, and he didn't have such a strong connection, so his son ignored him. ”
When Wu Dehou heard this, he pinched his temples a little frustratedly, he knew that the two sons had always only known how to spend money but did not know how to make money, and the sons were all some losers in the capital, and occasionally they would mess with the children of those merchants, but they just liked to flatter and wait with filial piety. This newcomer to the capital to do business has no foundation in the capital, in order to rely on the big tree of Wudehou, he will definitely bother, maybe he will find it, it is really a folk miracle doctor.
I just don't know who the second son knows this time, and what people are asking for Wu Dehou......
He Jia'an has more knowledge than He Jialuo, he felt that his father was interested in this matter, so he scolded his younger brother: "Do you have a brain, such an important thing, you are still holding it, why don't you invite someone quickly, let your father ask first, my father's knowledge is naturally not comparable to you and me." If you really have the ability, let's ask my sister to see a doctor, if you want to come to the Hou Mansion to cheat, it's not too late to kill it directly. ”
"Hmm." Wu Dehou nodded and didn't say anything more.
At this time, someone came to send a post, saying that a young master surnamed Bai came to invite He Jialuo to the restaurant for a talk.
Wu Dehou motioned to his subordinates to send the post over first, flipped it over twice, his face was even more ugly, and he threw it directly to the ground, and said coldly: "It's a small businessman again, Erlang, after all, you are also a dignified prince of the Hou Mansion, and you are all about making friends with some unpopular businessmen all day long, what do you look like!" ”
He Jialuo picked up the invitation and looked at it, but at this time he also said stiffly: "Father, this is the young master Bai Yibai I just said that I would introduce the traveling doctor to me, if my father is unwilling to let me go, I will ignore him." ”
"Nonsense! Erlang, you know that your father didn't mean that, and you're still here to make your father angry! What is your attitude now? Don't you think that healing your sister is the most important thing? ”
He Jialuo glanced at his father and brother, with his IQ, he naturally couldn't imagine that Wudehou Mansion was in trouble now, but after all, the brother and sister were deeply affectionate, and he himself wanted to heal his sister's body earlier, so he smiled and said: "Then I'll go to the banquet, father, you go to rest first, wait for my good news!" ”
Wu Dehou covered his forehead and looked at his son's back, his heart was desolate, thinking of a family like Wu Dehou, a few concubines and concubines are naturally not worth mentioning, and the two concubines are also added together, they are not as shrewd and decisive as their daughter, it's a pity......
