Chapter 178: Yuanchun Provincial Family
Three days before the first lunar month, Rongguo Mansion began to be busy for the provincial relatives.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, people came to the palace to teach everyone in Jiafu where to change clothes, where to salute, how to bow and so on.
Jia Huan wanted to escape these.
It's a pity that Mrs. Wang is eyeing her fiercely, and she will never allow anyone to destroy her daughter's provincial relatives, and everyone will watch her closely, Jia Huan can't escape, so she can only honestly follow a group of gentlemen to learn etiquette.
Of course, when he bowed, he always squatted instead.
He was at the very end of the line, not taken seriously at all, and the little eunuchs did not notice his small movements.
Jia Cong did the same, learning from him to use squatting instead of kneeling.
After a few days, on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, everything was taken care of.
Mother Jia originally wanted to take Lin Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion and let her meet Jia Yuanchun with her.
She also wanted to call Lin Ruhai and let Lin Ruhai witness the honor of the Jia family.
But the father and daughter of the Lin family refused on the grounds that they wanted to take care of the pregnant Mrs. Lin.
Just kidding, it would be strange if Lin Ruhai, an old oilman in officialdom, couldn't see the greasy nature of the concubine.
He would never let the Lin family have anything to do with Concubine Yuan.
Shi Xiangyun came to Rongguo Mansion, and the Shi family couldn't wait to have anything to do with Concubine Yuan.
Shi Xiangyun was very excited to pull Tanchun and Xue Baochai to talk, and when he saw Jia Huan walking past them, he rolled his eyes.
Jia Huan shrunk her neck, and the image of a frozen cat made Tanchun angry, but in front of a group of sisters and sisters, she couldn't scold her brother out of voice, so she only frowned, turned her head, and was out of sight.
On this night, many people did not fall asleep, but Jia Huan slept well.
But before dawn he was woken up by the maids and dressed him in new clothes.
Jia Huan knew that Jia Yuanchun would not leave the palace so early, but the other masters of Rongguo Mansion had all risen, how could he sleep lazily with a little shrimp?
Jia Huan was pushed out of the courtyard gate by Xiao Jixiang, and when he came to the gate, he saw Jia Rong, Jia Qiang, Jia Cong, Jia Lian and others had already come.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing whose stomach was making a chirp.
Jia Huan: "Niangniang won't leave the palace so early, I think we'd better have breakfast first." ”
The others nodded one after another, and Jia Lian ordered his subordinates to bring breakfast over.
After a while, Jia Yu also came with a yawn and joined the crowd for breakfast.
When Jia Zheng came, breakfast had already been eaten, and he could only ask someone to serve him a simple breakfast again.
After that, the people waited at the gate.
Jia Yu and Jia Zheng ran out of Lai Da and Lin Zhixiao to the gate of the palace to wait for news, and when there was movement in the palace, they immediately came back to report.
Jia Huan thought that Jia Yuanchun was not the only concubine who left the palace today, how could Lai Da and Lin Zhixiao judge that the movement was sent by Jia Yuanchun out of the palace?
What if I make a mistake?
He leaned against the door panel, focusing on two things, while running horses in his mind, while cultivating the secret of longevity.
Jia Cong hid behind the door and practiced standing on the pile.
He was motionless for a long time, and no one else knew what he was doing.
Just waiting impatiently, a pair of eunuchs came to Rongguo's Mansion and conveyed the news to everyone.
"It's a lot earlier! I didn't have dinner at the first moment, I didn't go to the Baoling Palace to worship the Buddha at the second moment, and I entered the Daming Palace to receive the banquet to see the lantern party to ask for the order, but I was afraid that I would get up at the beginning of the year. ”
Wang Xifeng said to Jia Mu and the others: "The old lady and the wife should go back to rest, and when the time is almost up, they will come to pick up the driver." ”
Jia's mother is old, she can't stand it after standing for a while, and the other female rolls are also pampered, so she can't stand for long, and after listening to Wang Xifeng's words, she went back to her room.
The mother and daughter of the Xue family lived far away, so they did not go back to their yard, and followed Mrs. Wang to her side to rest.
The men moved their chairs and rested and waited at the porter.
They were given hot tea and refreshments, as well as pastime toys such as chessboards and leaf tiles.
Jia Yu had no interest in the chessboard or the leaf cards, so he put on a thick fur cloak and dozed off on the back of his chair.
Jia Zheng pulled Jia Dairu to play chess with him, and Jia Zhen and Jia Lian and Xue Pan talked together.
Jia Rong told Jia Qiang about the things in the barracks, and Jia Qiang was shocked to find that Jia Rong had changed a lot.
An idea sprung in his mind.
Jia Baoyu was taken away by Jia's mother early in the morning, and the rest of the juniors gathered in twos and threes to talk.
Jia Cong is still on the cos stake, and Jia Huan is still dedicated to two purposes.
He saw Jia Yun among the juniors.
Jia Yun is now reused by Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian, and this time she is qualified to participate in the event to welcome Concubine Yuan.
Otherwise, he would be like other ordinary people, and he could only watch from the outermost periphery.
By the time dinner had been eaten, it was already dark.
The Rongguo Mansion began to be lit.
Loads and loads of candles were carried everywhere and soon lit.
The entire Rongguo Mansion was shrouded in light, like a city that never sleeps.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and several little eunuchs rode over, shouting at the corners of their mouths: "Coming, coming." ”
Jia Yu immediately stood up and led the children of the Jia family to West Street.
Jia Huan walked in the middle and yawned secretly.
He had eaten a little too much for dinner, and he was a little sleepy.
After waiting for about an hour, finally, Jia Yuanchun's provincial team appeared in everyone's sight.
The scale of the provincial team and the specific experience of the provincial relatives are written in the original work, and a certain Zen will not be described in detail here, so as not to let anyone question the manuscript fee of a certain Zen water.
Jia Huan followed Jia Zheng and kowtowed to Jia Yuanchun, of course, he still squatted instead of kneeling.
After that, there was nothing to do with Jia Huan.
He was confined to a certain hall with the other children of the Jia family, waiting for the end of the province.
If Concubine Yuan wanted to summon them, the eunuch would come and inform them to go to Concubine Yuan.
It's a pity that Jia Yuanchun didn't think about meeting other children of the Jia family other than Jia Baoyu, including Jia Lan, the eldest son and grandson of the second room.
Jia Lan and Jia Huan sat together, and it could be seen that the child was quite lost.
Jia Huan didn't think he would comfort people, so he didn't open his mouth to comfort Jia Lan.
Because there were palace guards and eunuchs outside the door, everyone did not dare to speak, and they all sat in silence in the hall.
Jia Huan had already cultivated his divine sense at this time, and he could release his divine sense to see the situation on Jia Yuanchun's side.
But he thought of the Vigilant Fairy and the Misty Real Wanderer.
Concubine Yuan's provincial relatives are a major event in the Red Mansion, who knows if they are watching this provincial relatives.
It wouldn't be wonderful if they discovered their senses.
Jia Huan simply closed his eyes and slept.
When Jia Cong saw him like this, he also closed his eyes.
The two big-hearted people slept until the end of Concubine Yuan's proximity, then got up, yawned and sent Jia Yuanchun away with the others.
After that, the two took the gift given by Jia Yuanchun and returned to their courtyard.
What happened next had nothing to do with them.
