Chapter 104: The Careful-Eyed Emperor
"Third master, let's go!"
Amber reminded in a whisper, "I guess the old lady is in a hurry." ”
Jia Jue nodded, and walked quickly to Rongqing Hall, the house was brightly lit and full of red lanterns, so that the entire Rongguo Mansion was immersed in a peaceful and festive atmosphere.
asked Amber, and then it became clear that it was Lin Ruhai who sent the festival gift, no wonder Daiyu invited the host and rewarded the money.
As they spoke, the two walked into the Rongqing Hall, and from afar, a noisy and lively atmosphere came to their faces, and bursts of laughter came from the flower hall.
Jia Jue and Amber walked into the flower hall, which was warm as spring, full of fragrance, and the charcoal fire in the stove in the corner of the house was extremely hot.
I saw that the flower hall was full of people, gathered together, the sound of warblers and swallows, Jia Jue was dazzled, he wanted to find Daiyu, but the Yingchun sisters were sitting next to Wang Xifeng and Li Kun, "Third master, Miss Lin is over there." ”
Following the voice, Daiyu really sat with Jia's mother, as well as Xiangyun, Baochai and Da Yan Bao, who had not been seen for a few days, and Xue Baoqin, who had just entered Beijing.
"Old lady, the third master is here."
Jia Jue stepped forward and saluted, "Ancestor." ”
"Don't stand, sit down."
Jia Mu stood up with a smile, stretched out her hand and pulled Jia Jue to her side and sat down, and then asked in a low voice, "Why have you stayed in the barracks for so long?" ”
"We'll talk about that later."
Jia Jue smiled, and waved his hand to Daiyu and the others who were still standing, "Don't be polite, sit down." ”
One by one, everyone sat down.
Jia Jue reached out and took the wine handed over by Amber, and he suddenly raised his glass and stood up, "Everyone, be quiet." ”
The flower hall was quiet for a while, and Jia Jue said with a smile: "Last year's New Year I spent in the Weisu barracks, that taste is still fresh in my memory, in the blink of an eye it is the New Year, Chinese New Year's Eve is still the same, but a new face has been added, today with Sister Lin's glass of wine, I wish everyone a happy New Year, good health, and all the best!" Come, everyone, drink this wine! ”
Everyone was stunned, then drank the wine in the cup together, and looked at Jia Jue together.
Jia Mu put the wine glass down, "What do you mean by that?" ”
Jia Jue put down his wine glass, "Just now there was news from the East Palace, Your Majesty will fast and pray for blessings from tomorrow." ”
Jia's mother immediately changed her face, the emperor was determined not to let everyone celebrate the festival with peace of mind, and he forced his daughter-in-law, son and grandson to death, and he was uneasy, and let everyone suffer together.
Thinking of this, he sighed, "The emperor is virtuous!" ”
“......”
Jia Jue scratched his head, it seems that he still needs to read more books, look at how good he is in saying this.
Jia Mu smiled again: "That's okay, I can rest and rest this year, I'm old, I can't stand the toss." ”
Jia Jue smiled slightly and said: "Although you can't drink and sing, it is more warm for the family to sit together and eat a meal quietly." ”
Jia Mu nodded and said to the mandarin duck standing on the side, "Go and call the phoenix girl." ”
"Ancestor."
Wang Xifeng leaned behind Jia's mother, "But if there is something unsatisfactory, I will order someone to change it." ”
Jia Mu Zhengse said: "I just heard Brother Jue say that Nan Zhili has encountered a rare blizzard, although it has nothing to do with our family, in the end, it is the hometown, although we can't help, but the mind still has to be placed, tomorrow everyone will get together to eat, and the rest will be free." ”
"Won't it?"
Wang Xifeng smiled and looked at Jia Jue on the side.
At this time, Daiyu spoke, "Steward Lin said that there is a lot of snow this year, and the canal is frozen after walking on the road for a month and two days. ”
Wang Xifeng nodded, looked at Daiyu, and then looked at Jia Jue, who had a calm face, and then said with a smile: "Ancestor is merciful, I will arrange it tomorrow morning." ”
Jia Mu nodded and picked up the wine glass in front of her, "Come, let's eat this glass of wine, and it will be lively after a while." ”
Jia Jue was stunned.
The banquet ended soon, Daiyu also returned to her yard, she sat under the window, the moonlight sprinkled on her fair face through the window, the moonlight reflected the loneliness and sadness in her eyes, she silently stared at the letter on the book, this is the handwritten letter of Lin Ruhai brought by the housekeeper, she has carefully read it three times, this year is the first time she is out for the New Year, always feel sad.
At this moment, the voice of the snow goose came from outside the door, "The third master is here, and the girl is inside." ”
"Why are you here?"
Daiyu put the letter away, and her eyes were attracted by the delicate sandalwood box in Jia Jue's arms, "What's that?" ”
"Nothing, a gadget."
Jia Jue put the box on the eucalyptus table, pulled a chair and sat down next to Daiyu, and when he saw her sad face, he smiled and said, "Homesick?" ”
Daiyu bit her lip and whispered for a while, "I miss my father." ”
"I know."
Jia Jue nodded, took the box on the eucalyptus, and said with a smile: "I brought you a good thing, open it and take a look." ”
"Shhhh It's just some gold and silver jewelry..."
Daiyu snorted, opened the box, her eyes lit up suddenly, and saw that there was a glass box inside, in her surprised gaze, Jia Jue took out the glass box from the sandalwood box, took out a key and twisted it several times in a hole, and heard the sound of tinkling Dongdong coming from the glass box.
"Wow!" Snow Goose and the others exclaimed.
"This thing is called a music box, there are small protrusions on the iron pillar inside, the scale is different, as long as the yellow is hit on the protruding sound column, it will be played automatically, as long as the speed is controlled, you can play a lot of beautiful music, my sister may wish to try it in her spare time."
"Really?"
Daiyu was overjoyed, opened the lid of the box, and sure enough, she saw a bullet yellow knocking on the sound column inside, and couldn't wait to take the key from Jia Jue's hand, twisted it a few times, and a pleasant sound came from the box.
"Where did you get such a rare thing, the third master didn't bother to think about it!"
Zijuan brought Jia Jue a bowl of tea, and asked while staring at the music box on the table.
Mama Wang looked at the music box and said with a smile: "It should be a Western import." ”
"It's not a Western product, it's made by a craftsman at home, so I made one."
Speaking of this, he was busy with Daiyu, who was studying the music box, and said: "The craftsman is hurrying up to make it, and another batch will be sent during the Lantern Festival, you can play with this yourself, don't let them know, especially Xiangyun and Xichun." ”
"I don't want it!"
Daiyu: "Smack! Covered the sandalwood box, returned it to Jia Jue, and pouted: "There is no sincerity at all...."
Seeing that Zijuan and the others were snickering, he immediately said, "You should send it to the four girls." ”
"If I give it to the four girls, you should be sour...."
Daiyu was slightly stunned, she tilted her head slightly, her eyes were playful, and she laughed sneeringly, "Ming'er will eat, many people will be disappointed...."
"The First Evolution"
"Look at what you said, don't be disappointed and don't care about me!"
“....”
Daiyu glanced at him and ignored him.
Zijuan answered, "The third master has been busy outside for two or three days, and the girl said something happy." ”
"Just talk too much!"
Daiyu tapped her lightly, "You go and get the package from the cabinet." ”
"Yes."
Zijuan turned around and walked into the inner room, quickly came out with a package, took out a wide-sleeved brocade robe from it, and glanced at Jia Jue.
Jia Jue understood, Zijuan lifted the brocade robe, walked up to Jia Jue, carried her shoulders, and showed it to him.
Jia Jue looked at it, and saw that the brocade robe was neatly stitched from the neckline to the sleeves to the hem, which showed that it took a lot of effort, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, "I'll wear this tomorrow." ”
Daiyu glanced at him, "This is what she wore after the beginning of spring." ”
After speaking, he got up and took the brocade robe from Zijuan's hand, pulled Jia Jue over, draped it on his body, and nodded with satisfaction.
Amber saw it on the side and said with a smile: "The girl is so skillful, the third master of Ming'er will wear this, and it would be good to wear a fox skin shoulder inside." ”
Jia Jue walked to the mirror and looked around, "That's it." ”
Mama Wang smiled, she heard about the Xue family from Wang Shanbao's family.
Jia Jue was in a good mood, and suddenly remembered something, so he said to Daiyu: "Sister, you have to write a letter to your uncle." ”
"What?"
"Your Majesty intends to let my uncle be the governor of Yingtian or the governor of Henan."
Jia Jue saw that she was stunned, and sat her down, "Okay, this is also a good thing." It should be fine before autumn, and I will take you south to visit your uncle. ”
Only then did Daiyu come to her senses, folded the brocade robe for him, stuffed it into Amber and said with a smile: "It's late at night, you go back first, and come back tomorrow." ”
Jia Jue hesitated for a moment, but had to leave, Daiyu sat in front of the book, holding her cheeks, stunned, for a while, she sighed, took out a piece of letterhead, and wrote a letter to Lin Ruhai.
