Mama Wang's matter is over, Jia Cong left the spring room and returned to the hugging building to think to herself.

Speaking of which, since the first time he opened his eyes in this world, his first thought was to escape from Jia Mansion and not have anything to do with them.

But the experience of these days has made him gradually understand many things, and he has no choice as a little concubine.

He is actually a real loner, and no one inside or outside the house will (can) help him.

In this feudal era, even if you escape secretly, it is difficult to survive if you have no identity, no hukou, and no family!

Not to mention anything else.

Moreover, this kind of private departure is defined as "unfilial piety" in this society.

Whether Rongguo Mansion will follow the text of Tianfu to arrest him, and whether he is worth it to mobilize the people like this, I don't want to mention it.

In short, the imprint of Jiafu Shuzi cannot be erased for the time being, so it is better to make good use of this identity to do things.

.........

There are often lively things in Xifu, or the maids and mothers-in-law quarrel endlessly!

Or who did Grandma Lian dispose of today!

Or which girl's mouth did Baoyu eat the rouge on her mouth?

Of course, Jia Cong was in the Spring Festival Room yesterday, and he was resolute and resolute.

It has also become a topic of discussion among many people in private, but that's all.

The words are divided into two ends.

Let's say that after Wang Shanbao's family found out the truth, Mrs. Xing decisively drove Mama Wang out of the house.

Even the old lady rarely praised Mrs. Xing for doing a good job, openly sitting in the village and gambling, which is easy to cause trouble and make an example of chickens and monkeys.

So that the people can also settle down a little, Zhu's daughter-in-law is angry, she doesn't think her mother-in-law is too much.

"Grandma, my man has always done his best for grandma, and he has never made a mistake."

Zhu's daughter-in-law said in a low voice, she didn't dare to be arrogant in front of Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng said angrily: "If you don't make a mistake now, aren't you a family?"

Zhu's daughter-in-law looked aggrieved and speechless.

Wang Xifeng sighed and said helplessly: "It's not me who said, you subordinates are tricky.

It's time to kill the chicken and show it to the monkey, the old lady has spoken, your mother-in-law can't come in. ”

The voice paused.

Wang Xifeng's eyes flipped and chuckled: "But since you are working under me, you can't be wronged for no reason....... doesn't Brother Cong want to study seriously?"

It just so happened that I went back to the old lady and asked him to move out of the old man's East Road Courtyard and live next to them in the Spring Festival.

At that time, their monthly silver, won't I be in charge, and it's not easy to deduct some of it casually? ”

"Grandma is wise." Zhu's daughter-in-law was overjoyed when she heard this.

flattered Lian's second grandmother again and again to be clever and capable, Wang Xifeng smiled at the corner of her lips, and she was very useful.

.........

In one of the upper rooms of Jia's mother's house.

The old lady was lying on the couch with her eyes closed, and the "mandarin duck" was squatting beside her.

Jade held a beauty fist in her hand, gently hammered Jia Mu's legs, and babbled.

Beauty fist is a kind of object that serves people.

Mother Jia was very comfortable served by "Mandarin Duck", among so many girls, only "Mandarin Duck" was the most popular with her.

"Mandarin duck...... You said that Mama Wang's incident was caused by Brother Cong'er? Jia Mu asked casually.

The mandarin duck replied with a smile: "Yes, old lady, but it was also that Mama Wang who had no rules first." ”

"The rules of people like ours can't be crossed, it's a good thing that their sister and brother are in love, if everyone can do this, the family will be peaceful forever."

Jia Mu sighed as she spoke, her eyes were worried.

The mandarin duck smiled and did not answer, and the little freckles on both sides of the goose egg face stretched out.

I thought to myself, "The old lady knows everything, but she doesn't say anything......."

Among the girls in the Red Mansion, there are two goose egg faces, one is a mandarin duck.

One is Jia Tanchun, and the "goose egg face" is also a standard beauty face shape.

"Brother Cong has become self-motivated, which is a good thing/It's Fury, the smart thing about this kid is that he doesn't have a heart to fight.

The Japanese festival does not take the opportunity to ask for things........ Alas, the old man—the old man, it's my old dizziness! ”

Jia Mu muttered: "There is only one thing, that is, "Nanke Dream" is unlucky.

is not as auspicious as Baoyu, and was born of a slave, and it is inevitable that he will be despicable in the past......."

The mandarin duck smiled and did not speak.

Until the evening, Wang Xifeng came over to say goodbye.

The mandarin duck got up, gently removed the cloak from her shoulders, and placed it on a hanger.

Wang Xifeng saluted, and Mother Jia smiled at her: "The phoenix girl is here, the mandarin duck is fast, fast."

Go and take the dominoes out and let's play them, and run out all her ladder money. ”

The mandarin duck went with a smile, took out a deck of dominoes from the drawer and put it down, playing domino solitaire.

This kind of gameplay is very simple, not like mahjong, basically watch it once.

Dominos are also one of the daily entertainment activities in Jia Province.

"Ouch! Ancestor, I will win this time, lest the ancestor's glittering money dazzle! ”

Wang Xifeng laughed and joked, but in fact, he deliberately let Jia's mother win and coax her to be happy.

Mother Jia smiled, and the mandarin duck laughed.

Wang Xifeng's eyes wandered, and he mentioned in a seemingly casual tone: "Ancestor, I see that Brother Cong'er has been motivated recently, and the eldest lady is not like Miss Lin, and she has read four books."

I don't think it's better to be like Baoyu, let Brother Cong move out of the East Road Courtyard next to a few younger sisters, and Zhu's sister-in-law is also a learner.

Coupled with Lan Ge'er's child, he is not very old, so it is good for them to ponder together and encourage each other, wouldn't it be good? ”

After Wang Xifeng finished talking and laughing, a domino in Jia's mother suddenly closed in the air.

"It's okay to move out, but you can only move after school, so as not to be idle."

When you come back from school in the afternoon, you can study poetry and books, and go to school during the day, so it is safer. ”

"Yes, it's still the ancestors who love their grandchildren, Mrs., the master, I'll talk about it later."

Wang Xifeng nodded with a smile, and the candlelight was obliquely reflected, shining on her pink face, which was extremely delicate and extraordinary.

Mother Jia looked at the mandarin duck and said with a smile: "It's still a Feng girl who is virtuous, can do things, and is thoughtful."

Asking you to help your aunt run the house, it is the safest, just like the Qin family in Dongfu, it is excellent. ”

Sure enough, within a few days, everyone in the house praised the second grandmother for being thoughtful, kind, and virtuous.

…….

When Jia Cong learned about this, he didn't react, or didn't bother to think about it.

What is this cheap sister-in-law planning, after all, there are only a few days left before the start of the private school.

In the past two days, he went to Huifangyuan in Ningguo Mansion to practice archery during the day, and returned to Baoxia at night to read the Analects and Mencius.

The living habits are in order, and the etiquette of greeting people every day has not fallen, and now, he is helping Qing'er pack up the package.

It's not that I'm worried that Qing'er wants to curry favor with both sides, play double agent or something.

This is the girl next to him, and she will do her best to protect it.

It was only after he asked Qing'er that day that he learned that the old mother at home was seriously ill, and he was afraid that he would not live long.

Her mother has no son, only one daughter, and she is alone at home with no one to take care of her.

To a certain extent, Jiafu treats his subordinates relatively leniently, such as the big maid next to Baoyu when her mother died.

allowed her to go home for burial/funeral, but the mandarin duck was because her parents were far away in Jinling and had never been there.

But Qing'er is an ordinary third-class girl, not to mention the girl of the concubine Jia Cong, which is far inferior to the super first-class girls such as raiders and mandarin ducks.

Therefore, using this excuse to go back, the above will definitely not allow it.

That's why Jia Cong asked her to wait quietly for a few days, and then help her think of ideas when she has time.

Now he found an excuse and said bluntly, "Qing'er is clumsy and clumsy, and she doesn't do things well."

Mrs. Xing had just approved the return of her slave deed, and she was going to take advantage of this to receive a sum of silver, but for Jia Cong's sake, she still gave up.

"Qing'er, don't worry."

Jia Cong spit out a few words, and the little girl took care of him very dedicatedly.

Qing'er's sad little face finally turned a little happy when she heard this, Third Master Cong is now doing more things than she says, and he also gave her the rest of the ladder money.

She originally shook her head and refused to accept it, but when she saw her grandfather's face sank, she took it rather complicatedly.

Qing'er was moved, and knelt down: "Master, I will remember this kindness, please allow Qing'er to bow down." ”

Jia Cong endured and did not refuse her bowing, after all, some modern concepts are out of place here.

At the same time, he thought in his heart: "Qing'er, this girl is also weak-natured, and it may not be appropriate to stay in this kind of high-ranking house."

This time I went outside, and I took care of it, so I should be more free......."

Tie Niu was ordered to carry the luggage, and Qing'er's house turned right at the east end of Ningrong Street and turned the third storefront, which was not too far.

Tie Niu asked: "Ye can only go to Dongfu by himself today, and the little one will come to pick up the third master after sending the Qing'er girl back, and there is also news from the Laiwang couple."

They are the Yinzi money of Jin Xicai, Gao Fuquan, and Tian Youfu, and the profits and silver collected exceeded the government regulations......"

"Good."

Jia Cong responded casually, looked at Qing'er and said, "The book I wrote the day before yesterday, has it dried?" ”

Qing'er's big eyes were filled with tears, and her fingers twitched at the corners of her lips: "I deliberately dried it in a charcoal oven, but ......

The ink had not yet dispersed, and it was placed in the cabinet along with the pair of deerskin boots. ”

Jia Cong nodded and smiled: "Well, well done, when your family affairs are over, the money from the sale of this book will be divided into 20% for you." ”

It's good that Qing'er goes out, so as not to suffer another disaster for no reason.

Mrs. Xing said that she would rearrange a girl for him in a few days.

With that in mind.

Jia Cong raised her eyebrows, I wonder if Qingwen's girl was assigned to Baoyu's side?

It's just that then he smiled and shook his head, that's all, that Qingwen was specially left by Jia's mother to Baoyu.

……

After dealing with Qing'er's affairs.

Jia Cong, as before, went to Ningguo Mansion to practice archery in the Huifang Garden.

Regarding Wang Xifeng's arrangement, he naturally knew that this phoenix was not well-intentioned, but he was not in a hurry.

Things always need to be done slowly, one by one, as long as everything is in progress.

There are three places in the Tianxiang Building, the Honey Bee Pavilion and the Dengxian Pavilion in the Huifang Garden, and the scenery is the most beautiful.

In a few years, when Jia Yuanchun is in power, the Huifang Garden in the East Mansion will be merged with the East Compound in the West Mansion, and then it will become the famous Grand View Garden.

A lush osmanthus forest in front of Tianxiang Building is taken from the Tang Dynasty poet Song Zhiwen's "Guizi falls in the middle of the month, and the heavenly fragrance clouds float outside", so it is named "Tianxiang Building".

On the open grassland on the side wall downstairs, Jia Cong held a bow in his left hand and an arrow in his right hand and loosened with his right hand.

The arrow in his hand "whoosh" floated out a few feet away, and the arrow was like a sharp edge for a while.

It's a pity that it was a silver spear wax head, and the shaft of the arrow was like a kite with a broken string, and it fell halfway before it touched the target.

"Haha......."

Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, Jia Rong and others, who were drinking at the banquet, all laughed.

They draped blankets, slaughtered pigs and sheep on the field, and when they were tired, they sat down to drink, and played fists, which was very good at enjoying.

"My body is a little weaker, but I have improved, and ten days ago, I couldn't even pull a 30-pound bow."

Jia Cong looked back expressionlessly and explained seriously.

Jia Lian echoed with a smile: "In theory, Brother Cong has indeed made great progress. ”

He didn't have any prejudices against this younger brother in the first place, but the relationship between the two was average, neither good nor bad.

After all, Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu are the default heirs of the big house and the second room of the high-level of Rongguo Mansion.

Although Jia Cong has changed, he has never shown his intention to fight, but only reads his own poetry books.

There is no conflict of interest between the two, and Jia Lian is even more unintentional.

Jia Zhen stroked his beard: "Brother Cong, you can't always hold the Four Books and Five Classics to read."

The ancient sages also have the six arts of courtesy, and our meritorious home should not forget its roots. ”

When these words came out of Jia Zhen's mouth, Jia Cong wanted to laugh, but he couldn't help laughing.

Judging from the appearance, words and deeds alone, where do Jia Lian, Jia Zhen, Jia Rong and others look like losers who don't learn and don't know how to do it?

A person who looks like a dog and has a suave appearance.

But he knew very well what kind of cows, horses, and mules these people in front of him were.

Jia Lian likes to, dirty/smelly/broken shoes, except for not engaging in good family women.

As for this Jia Rong, she has coveted her stepmother for a long time with her ill intentions, and she still two aunts......

As for Jia Rong's father "Jia Zhen", pick up the ashes.......

But......

How many men have made wild remarks about Jia Yu, Jia Zhen and others, standing on the moral high ground and criticizing them.

While scolding on the lips, but in the heart is envy, jealousy and hatred?

In this regard, only the benevolent can see the benevolent, and the wise can see the wise.

Regarding Jia Zhen's words, Jia Cong just laughed and passed by, and had no intention of being sarcastic.

In the end, they have nothing to do with themselves, his purpose is very simple, just to exercise his body.

If you persist for a long time, your body will gradually get better, after all, a small cold will be fatal in ancient times.

casually chatted with Jia Zhen and others about some unnutritious words.

Jia Cong also felt tired, and Jia Rong was very good at saying when he saw this: "Uncle Cong, why don't you go to the room to rest for a while?"

It's too early to leave the palm lamp, and it's not too late to go back after dinner. ”

It takes a short time to sit in a sedan chair from the East Road Courtyard to Jia's Mother Courtyard, and the Huifang Garden from the West Mansion to the East Mansion is even farther.

Besides, he was already sweating profusely at the moment, Jia Cong frowned and thought about it, and said, "It's okay, it's just bothering you." ”

"Third Uncle Cong is polite, they are all members of the family."

Jia Rong led him south out of the Weeping Flower Gate, and just walked to the door.

I saw his wife "Qin Keqing" and the girl Ruizhu holding a few mink linings and coming over.

"How did you guys get back? It's a cold day, so I've prepared a few sets of covers and sent them over. ”

Jia Rong glanced at her and replied calmly: "Uncle Cong is a little tired, I am going to take him to the guest rest room." ”

Qin Keqing hugged the clothes in his hand, his eyes flashed when he heard the words, and then he understood in an instant: "I know, you go back, I'll take my uncle over." ”

"Okay."

Jia Rong took the big coat from her hand, and her face was sad and joyless: "Is there something going on with my mother recently?" Are you getting better? ”

Qin Keqing didn't look at him, lowered his eyebrows and said, "It's all right, I'm just a little pain and illness."

I asked the jewel to prepare hot water, remember to wash it when I came back, and I will dispose of the rest of the delicacies, and it is better to distribute them to the next person if I throw them away. ”

Jia Rong nodded, turned and left.
