Chapter 240: Love Brother
Everyone only thought that Xue Pan could speak, so he was modest and polite, only he knew that this was the truth.
Doing things for Zhu Jinghong is worth showing off, but at the same time, it is also extremely dangerous.
Xue Pan was really afraid that if he didn't do his errand well, he would bear Zhu Jinghong's thunderous anger.
Jia Zhen was still smiling: "Brother Pan, you are too modest, who doesn't know now...... The Thirteenth Master takes special care of your family, how many people can't envy it! ”
As a peer, Jia Zhen can naturally be complimented like this, and it is inconvenient for Jia Zhen to say that these elders are not convenient.
Why is it this thirteenth master again, why do you have to mention him everywhere, it's really annoying...... Jia Baoyu was in a bad mood suddenly.
When everyone led Xue Pan into the mansion, Jia Baoyu simply slipped away, just because he felt that it was not interesting to continue to stay.
Let's say that everyone entered the mansion, and after sitting down politely, Xue Pan got down to business.
"Elders, I don't know if you can send a message to the Thirteenth Master for me and convey to him the news that I have arrived in Beijing!"
I only heard Jia Zheng reply: "This matter is simple, I said it for you!" ”
At this time, Jia Yu interjected: "Now that the Holy Birthday Festival is approaching, the Thirteenth Master is afraid that he will not have time to meet those foreigners, and he is not in a hurry to think about it!" ”
"Not only for these foreigners, but also for someone to entrust one!"
"Oh?"
Picking up the teacup, Xue Pan said slowly: "Speaking of which, this person also has something to do with the Rongguo Mansion!" ”
"Who?" Jia Lian couldn't help but ask.
"It's Jia Hua of Ying Tianzhifu, the one nicknamed Yucun!"
Jia Yu glanced at his brother, and then asked, "What did he entrust you?" ”
Xue Pan replied: "Jia Zhifu is grateful to the Emperor Shengde, so he prepared a birthday ceremony, but this year, the Holy Lord specially ordered to rest with the people, and ordered that officials below the fourth grade do not need to pay a birthday gift, just go to the congratulatory table to worship the birthday!" ”
The scale of this year's Shengshou Festival is very large, in order to congratulate the father on his birthday, the emperor didn't care about money, and he also called the envoys of the Tusi of various countries and ministries, and he gave up everything for his father.
But Zhu Xianming made special regulations (restrictions) on the specific matters of officials' birthdays, which shows that he is a contradiction.
Immediately afterwards, I only heard Xue Pan say: "With this restriction, the congratulatory gift prepared by Jia's prefect is useless, so he asked me to take it to the Shendu and hand it over to the Thirteenth Master to present it to the Emperor!" ”
To put it simply, Jia Yucun, in line with the idea of not wasting things, handed over the birthday gift he prepared to Zhu Jinghong, and then gave it to the Emperor Taishang in the name of Zhu Jinghong.
This guy wants to cling to the Thirteenth Master...... The two brothers of the Jia family came up with this idea together.
People go to high places, and it is understandable to have such an idea, and the brothers of the Jia family are also happy to see it.
With Ning Rong's second mansion's favor to him, if Jia Yucun soars in the future, it will also be a big help for the Jia family.
At this time, Jia Zheng frowned and said, "I'm afraid that the Thirteenth Master won't accept his gift!" ”
Xue Panhun said indifferently: "Uncle, this birthday gift prepared by the Jia Governor's Mansion is really heartfelt, how can the Thirteenth Master not accept it!" ”
"If it's too expensive, I'm afraid it's not good!"
"It's not very valuable, the main reason he sent that thing was sincerity, and it took a lot of thought before and after!"
Hearing Xue Pan say this, Jia Yu also aroused his curiosity, and hurriedly asked, "Then what did he send?" ”
"A golden pine, after being fiddled with by him a thousand times, the trunk grew into a 'longevity' word, you say this is not unusual!"
"Oh? This is indeed very novel, precious but not extravagant, and it is indeed suitable for the emperor! ”
The details of this are that raising pine trees like this will not be possible for a while, and it is obvious that Jia Yucun has been preparing for a long time in advance.
While discussing here, Jia Baoyu slipped into Jia's mother's courtyard again, and at this moment, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, and others were talking here, while Jia Sanchun was in Daiyu's room.
Daiyu Tanchun was playing chess, the young Xichun was watching, and Yingchun was sitting behind the bookcase, seriously studying the "Taishang Induction Chapter".
"Brother Xue is in Beijing this time, presumably Sister Bao will come back on leave, right?"
When she said these words while playing chess, it was obvious that Daiyu was absent-minded.
In fact, not only today, after Baochai left these days, she felt empty in her heart.
I only heard Tanchun reply: "I want to come like this...... Sister Bao is deeply appreciated by the queen, and she must not be embarrassed! ”
Speaking of this, Tanchun couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong?" Daiyu asked puzzled.
"Sister Lin, I only hate myself for being young, otherwise I would definitely have to choose a waiter!"
Tanchun is only 11 years old this year, and he is indeed too young, so he is not in the scope of the election at all.
"It's so dignified, why does the third sister have to choose an attendant!"
The words came from outside the house, and everyone knew that it was Jia Baoyu when they heard the sound, and they were a little surprised for a while.
It's just that the control in the house has become more and more stringent recently, and Jia Baoyu rarely enters the inner house except for the daily morning and dusk provinces.
"Second brother, why are you here again?" Tanchun asked curiously.
Glancing at Daiyu, who was looking down to observe the chess game, Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "Come in and have a look...... The third sister hasn't replied to me yet, why should I choose to study in Nalaoshzi! ”
"Stay at home, spend time with my sisters, read, write, draw, and draw...... Isn't it good? ”
"Second brother, you have also seen it, the house suffered several times a few days ago, if it weren't for the help of the Thirteenth Master and Sister Bao, our family would not know what would happen!"
"If I can also be elected to the palace, I can also protect the safety of my family, instead of sitting in a hurry like before!"
At the age of less than twelve, Tanchun can say such things, which is better than many men in the Jia family who are drunk and dreaming of death.
"Where to get to that field, the third sister is too worried!" After saying this, Jia Baoyu sat on the chair next to him and took the tea handed by the girl.
"Second brother, the benefits of being selected to study are not limited to ......"
"Third sister, why do you talk about benefits at every turn? Could it be that he was also taught badly by the Xue family? ”
In Jia Baoyu's opinion, the sisters were originally excellent, but everything changed after Baochai arrived at the house.
"Baoyu, good and decent...... Why are you involved with Sister Bao again? ”
From the time Jia Baoyu came in to Daiyu didn't speak, but when she heard that Baoyu was not arranging Baochai, she couldn't help but scare people.
"Yo, it turned out to be Sister Lin, I thought my sister didn't recognize me!"
Daiyu raised her head, glared at Baoyu and said, "You are the second master of the public mansion, I am a civilian girl, how can I deserve to know the second master!" ”
"You...... I'm your brother anyway, why are you so rude when you speak? ”
Facing Baoyu, who got up to question, Daiyu didn't let go and asked, "Am I rude?" Sister Bao is also your aunt's cousin, why have you been rude to her several times? ”
"You guys...... Don't make any more noise, it will cause my wife to ask for a while, Baoyu, you will be punished again! ”
Finally, Ermu Yingchun put down the booklet in his hand and persuaded him.
Originally, she didn't speak much, but when she mentioned that she was going to punish Baoyu, she became afraid, just because Mrs. Xing was in charge of the house now, and it was a little merciless to punish his nephew.
"Hmph...... Since Sister Lin can only tolerate your sister Bao in her eyes, then I should say goodbye! ”
"Second brother, Sister Lin didn't mean that, don't ...... it"
Tanchun was about to speak to persuade him, but Baoyu, who was not upset, listened to it, and left without looking back.
"Sister Lin, look at this...... Or do you want to persuade him? Yingchun was worried, for fear that there would be another incident.
"Let him go!" Daiyu's eyes were filled with tears.
Let's say that Jia Baoyu went out, but met a girl in red, and when he saw him, he shouted with a smile: "Love brother!" ”
