The red building is so arrogant

General Secretary.

Jiao Shun couldn't help yawning while flipping through the official documents. In the past, he basically used physical methods of contraception, but now he suddenly let go of the measures, and with the positive response from Second Sister You, it was inevitable that he would lose control.

Fortunately, there are not many official affairs accumulated in the yamen recently, and several of his plans have gone smoothly. As soon as the little emperor proposed to move the telegram to the outer court, he received countless praises, and the telegraph was placed under the jurisdiction of the General Administration Department. The additional conditions did not arouse any objections at all.

After all, the Secretary of General Administration was in charge of promoting this telegram. Besides, the little emperor [the empress dowager] wanted his ministers to master the channels of external communication, which was a perfectly normal foundation.

As long as you are willing to accept the supervision of the cabinet.

At present, the location of this 'telegraph office' has been selected, and we only need to wait for the people from the Secretary of General Affairs to officially settle in on the first day of next month.

By the way, he took Xue Pan into the palace two days ago, and he went to this "telegraph office" for inspection. He clearly said that he wanted to calculate the cost of rerouting the line, but in fact he took Xue Pan's big head to open his eyes and gild it. .

As for the feng shui project in the harem, although she was still arguing about the funds, Concubine Wu Gui had already made a decision. At worst, she would sell the dry stock of the car factory and use the money directly as project funds.

So it is expected to start construction around May.

It's just because the construction needs to be divided into sections and the secret passage has to be covered up, so the progress of the project will not be too fast, and it will have to be at the end of the year at the earliest, and it will be the beginning of spring next year after a little delay.

But a good meal is not afraid of being late, as long as it is safe enough, it is nothing to wait for more than half a year.

Regardless of these for now.

But Jiao Shun reviewed the official documents all afternoon, and when Sanya returned home, he heard that Baoyu had come to visit as soon as he got off the carriage, and he had been waiting in the living room for a long time.

Jiao Shun counted the days with his fingers and guessed the purpose of his trip.

When he saw Baoyu and saw his face full of bitterness and hatred, Jiao Shun immediately pretended to be embarrassed, cupped his hands and said, "Brother, don't blame me. I didn't dare to neglect because of your entrustment. I wanted to talk to Xiren that day." We were chatting, but she misunderstood whoever thought it was, and then came and went... I hope Brother Bao will not be offended."

Jia Baoyu's face turned blue when he heard this. If Jiao Shun hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten about it.

Now that the old matter is brought up again, it makes Baoyu's heart ache for a while.

"This……"

After slowing down, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Brother misunderstood, I didn't come to Xingshi to inquire about crimes."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Jiao Shun breathed a sigh of relief, and patted his chest again to promise: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Xiren when she comes to marry her as a dowry. If there is a son and a half daughter, I will raise her as an aunt immediately!"

The caring that Jiao Shun said was obviously not the kind of caring that Baoyu thought, especially when it involved children, it even aroused Baoyu's sensitive nerves.

But it was indeed Jiao Shun who took the initiative to ask Jiao Shun for this matter. She was willing to promise to carry Xiren's aunt all because of her own face. Faced with such 'good intentions', Jia Baoyu couldn't find fault with others, so He could only cup his hands sourly and said: "Then I will first thank Brother Jiao for her success."

"Good to say, good to say."

Jiao Shun pretended to be bold and waved his hands, and then asked curiously: "Since it's not for this matter, brother, why did you come to find me on purpose?"

Before Baoyu could speak, he patted his chest and promised: "If you have any difficulties, just ask, and if I can help you as an elder brother, I will definitely help you solve it!"

"This, this..."

Talking about his reason for coming this time, Jia Baoyu's round face suddenly turned red, it looked as if it was about to bleed, and his tongue was a little uncontrollable, and he hesitated for a long time without saying a whole sentence.

Seeing this, Jiao Shun smiled and said, "How about this, I'll let someone set up a banquet, and we brothers will chat while drinking."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Baoyu to respond, he loudly ordered people to host a banquet.

Taking advantage of the banquet, Jiao Shun took the time to go to the backyard to change clothes.

During this period, Shi Xiangyun carried Xiao Enjun into the room, watched Jiao Shun change his clothes, and asked curiously, "Why did Second Brother Bao come here today? I heard that he waited for you in the front hall for more than half an hour." Woolen cloth."

"It seems that there is something unspeakable."

Jiao Shun pretended to guess: "I asked him, but he hesitated and refused to say anything, so I ordered people to set up a banquet, and it would be convenient for me to talk when I was a little bit drunk."

"Ah~"

Shi Xiangyun sighed, and said: "The third sister will pass the door soon, and he can be regarded as your uncle. If it's not too embarrassing, please help if you can."

"Don't worry, don't I help their family?"

Jiao Shun smiled, kissed his son and then his wife, and then returned to the front yard and living room.

At this time, the cold dishes have been served, and two hot dishes have been served, Jiao Shun greets Baoyu to take a seat, and pours him a full cup first.

Baoyu also knew that wine can make people daring, so he drank a drink without saying a word. Unexpectedly, the alcohol was quite high in alcohol content, and it was so spicy that he stuck out his tongue on the spot.

"Eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables quickly and press down."

Jiao Shun hurriedly brought some refreshing side dishes for him, and Baoyu chewed his mouth full before he managed to suppress the spicy energy.

Jiao Shun asked the question knowingly and joked: "It seems that this time the matter is not small, otherwise you wouldn't be able to do this."

"Indeed."

Baoyu chewed the vegetables and said vaguely: "I have come back this time because I have a private matter, and I want to invite Brother Jiao, you, you..."

Halfway through, he couldn't continue.

He gritted his teeth, and simply poured himself another glass of wine, this time drinking more urgently, coughing non-stop.

"Why did you come here?"

While patting his back, Jiao Shun tried to persuade him: "Leave aside what happened before, we will be uncles in the near future, so if you have anything to say, just say it, why can't I help you?"

"me……"

Looking at Jiao Shun, Jia Baoyu was moved by his generosity, but also felt sore, so he simply ignored it and drank another cup.

Because he used a medium-sized wine glass, his capacity for drinking was not enough, and he drank it quickly. After drinking these three glasses of wine, he felt a little dizzy.

It was precisely because of this dizzy energy that Jia Baoyu summoned up the courage to say: "To be honest with you, brother, I have made an appointment with Mr. Zhen. When he comes out, we will escape into Buddhism and travel around the world together!"

In fact, Zhen Baoyu only agreed to escape into Buddhism, but did not agree to wander the world with him.

"This……"

Jiao Shun showed hesitation, took a sip from his wine glass, and then said after deliberation: "It's not that I want to refute your face, you must be cautious about becoming a monk, and besides, as an outsider, I don't have much to say."

"I'm not looking for my brother for this!"

Baoyu hurriedly explained: "I am leaving, the most sorry and helpless is Sister Bao, so I just think, just think..."

He got stuck again, simply picked up the flagon and took a few sips to his mouth, then slammed the flagon on the table, and said with red eyes: "I just want to leave her with support!"

"understood!"

Jiao Shun was stunned, and immediately pretended to be embarrassed: "It's not that the elder brother deliberately hides it from you, but I really don't have any secret recipes for having children here.

"That was not what I meant!"

Baoyu waved his hand fiercely, gritted his teeth, and said, "How can I take care of my family when I am far away from home? So I think, I want to find someone nearby to rely on for her."

"Find someone nearby to rely on?"

Jiao Shun showed a startled expression at the right time, pointing back to his nose and asking, "You're not talking about me again, are you?"

"It's you, brother!"

Seeing that Jiao Shun finally understood, Baoyu straightened out the words: "I want my brother to take care of her for me. If I can have a son and a half by my side, that would be the best!"

After saying this, there was a brief silence in the living room, and then Jiao Shun laughed loudly and said, "Brother, are you drunk? I've never heard of such a thing, not to mention whether the siblings are willing or not, it's just the aunt's level." I can't pass!"

As he spoke, he brought some more food for Baoyu, and said, "I'll just think that what you're talking about is all drunk and foolish. Come, come, sit down and eat, eat."

"I'm not drunk!"

Baoyu excitedly said: "I really came to ask my brother! And not only my wife has agreed, but even my aunt has acquiesced in this matter! Sister Bao, sister Bao is the same..."

slap~
"shut up!"

Jiao Shun slapped his chopsticks on the table suddenly, and scolded angrily: "You dare to tell such a lie, do you really think I won't ask for proof?!"

Jia Baoyu suddenly softened, and said in a low voice, "This, this is not a lie. If you don't believe me, you can ask my mother or my aunt."

"really?"

Jiao Shun still couldn't believe it, shook his head and smiled wryly: "What are you thinking, such things, such things..."

Baoyu knew that it was a critical moment, so he knelt down on his knees with the strength of wine, and said with a full body: "I have made up my mind, and I ask my brother to make it happen!"

"you……"

Jiao Shun was at a loss for what to do, and sighed halfway through: "You really gave me a problem, no matter what, let me think about it, right?"

Hearing the looseness in his tone, Baoyu hurriedly said while the iron was hot: "If brother doesn't agree, I won't get up today!"

"you you……"

Jiao Shun leaned back dejectedly, and said with a wry smile: "This is really ridiculous, ridiculous."

"Then I will accept it as my brother!"

Jia Baoyu breathed a sigh of relief, and knocked his head on the ground again with the strength of alcohol: "Thank you brother for fulfilling, thank you for helping brother!"
