[Red House] The First Imperial Merchant

Chapter 60 Huan Geer Returns to Jia Mansion

The charcoal fire made a subtle crackling sound, and the snow falling outside the window made the room very quiet. Otherwise, how could such a small sound be heard clearly?

On the bed, the master and the apprentice are special, one is left, one is right, one is tall and the other is short, meditating cross-legged and practicing exercises, it seems to be in a state of tranquility.After a while, Jia Huan opened his eyes first, and took a sneak peek at Xue Pan. Seeing that Xue Pan was still in meditation, he looked a little bolder in his heart.

The master's eyebrows are so thick, thick and long, they stick to the temples, very handsome.The master's nose is also very straight, with flesh on the nose. My aunt said that this kind of face is a blessing, but he is not. The nose is small and fleshless. My aunt said that his face is not good, very dull.The master's mouth is also good-looking, but when he purses his lips, he looks a little serious, which is very scary, but he knows that as long as the master has his eyes on the person, he will not be cruel. He is a good person...

"Have flowers grown on my face?" Xue Pan pursed his lips and asked with a teasing smile.

Jia Huan looked away instantly, and emphasized in a low voice uncomfortably: "I didn't look at you!"

"Then how do I see you?" Xue Pan opened his eyes, his slender fingers touched Jia Huan's sideways little head, studied it carefully, and saw that Jia Huan's thin-skinned face seemed to be overflowing with rouge, slightly tinged. Jokingly said: "Brother Huan would be a beauty if he changed into a girl's clothes---"

"Master always likes to compare me to a girl. Does Master look down on me as a man?" Jia Huan asked slightly dissatisfied.

Xue Pan was taken aback, put his arms around Jia Huan's shoulders, stuffed him into the quilt, and covered the two of them with quilts, then said: "This is the master's fault, I won't compare you as a girl in the future, in fact, it is the same. Just kidding, other people don't know Brother Huan's manly nature, so Master still doesn't know?"

Jia Huan breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered, "I just don't love you for always treating me like a girl."

"I won't talk about it in the future." Xue Pan changed the subject and said, "Can Jia's mansion send someone to pick him up tomorrow?" I don't care about Jia Lian's identity, but at least it is Jia Zheng's son who is stingy when he sends someone over, really---"Don't take these little details to heart, I will personally send you back home tomorrow." Xue Pan coaxed.

"Master, my heart for Jia's mansion has long since died. If there is only one person I really care about in the mansion. I don't care whether he sends someone to pick him up or how he treats me coldly. Master values ​​me, and I feel good." Jia Huan His gaze turned cold instantly. Since Mrs. Wang sent a letter three days ago to send him back, and the horseless servant sent someone to pick him up, this is a post for him. A few days ago, Mrs. Wang was busy planning the family-friendly garden, so I'm afraid that if I have free time now, it's a blow to him.

Xue Pan knew that Jia Huan only cared about Aunt Zhao, and he didn't know what to persuade him for a while. He was not Jia Huan, so he couldn't empathize with him, so naturally he had no position to persuade.He just said: "If you are wronged, just send someone to find me, and go to sleep!"

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, the snow had stopped, and the snow in the yard was thick, and the servants were busy. After Xue Pan and Jia Huan had dressed and washed, they had breakfast, and the servants had already loaded Jia Huan's luggage into the carriage. The carriage was already parked outside the mansion, waiting.

Xue Wang's family is kind, and he doesn't want to bother his children under the heavy snow. The nephew and niece greeted each other early in the morning. In Xue Wang's yard, chatting for a while and having a meal, it's easy and fun.

As the new year was approaching, all the new clothes cut by the masters of the mansion came down, so Jia Huan's was naturally indispensable.Shi Shi carefully held a fiery red fox fur cloak. The fox fur was first-class at a glance, and there was no miscellaneous hair. The fur was smooth and soft, and the tailoring was exquisite. After collecting a few points, Shi Mo waited for Jia Huan to put it on, brushed his hair with his hands, and said with a smile: "Brother, wearing this is really beautiful and festive."

"That's right." Xue Pan nodded, "At least you don't have to be looked down upon by dogs when you go back."

This fiery red fox skin is very rare. This year, someone paid tribute to them. Finally, Xue Biao got two pieces and gave them to Xue Wang. A large cloak, and the leftovers are used as handguards, hats, scarves and the like.When Xue Wang saw her son, she couldn't help feeling sorry for her son. Although she liked Jia Huan, she couldn't love her more than her own son. In private, she looked at and complained about her son, why did she give Jia Huan all the good things, Baochai heard, Then he said a few words of consolation, to the effect that my elder brother looks gentle, but he is the most indifferent. How many people can get into his heart? After finally accepting two apprentices, the third prince is naturally not uncommon, and it is normal for Brother Huan and so on.

The red cloak that Xue Pan was wearing was made when he first came to Beijing. It was made of high-quality materials, and his fur was still smooth after three years of use. The cloaks of the master and apprentice were similar in color, one big and one small, walking far away in the snow. Here, the servants saw it, with smiles in their eyes, wouldn't it be like this if the young master had a child?But brother Huan is a bit older and can't be a young master's child, so he looks like a pair of brothers, which is really good-looking.

In the carriage, aside from the burning stove, the quilt was thickly spread, and a wave of heat hit their faces. The two of them put aside their cloaks, and Jia Huan lowered his eyes and stroked the smooth fur. Seeing Xue Pan, Xue Pan said: : "You used to like to wear black and gray, and later you liked to wear white. You are young, and you can wear red for festive beauty. I remember that Jia Baoyu likes to wear red, and everyone who sees it will say it is festive, beautiful and rich." , I see that you are much better than him in clothes, he is rich and noble, and you are a little more amazing."

Maybe this cloak is well made, the waist is a little tighter, which complements Jia Huan's white skin and facial features, not to mention the exquisite and beautiful features, but the aura exuding from his body is very charming, a bit cold, a bit bookish, and a bit disdainful, look at it It looks much better than the single-flavor Jia Baoyu, and it is indeed amazing.

Jia Huan didn't say a word about this praise, curled his lips, and said disdainfully: "Why do men want to be so beautiful?!" From the bottom of my heart, I don't care about such external compliments. What's the use of looking better than Jia Baoyu?He has more power than Jia Baoyu.

All the way to Jia's mansion, I saw the gate was tightly closed. The guard at the gate saw that the sign of the carriage was from Xue's mansion and hurried forward. walk around."

Xue Pan had learned the rules of the Jia Mansion long ago, and the high-ranking households were indeed different, the gate was closed all year round, and once it opened, only the sons of princes and grandchildren were allowed to enter.With sarcasm in Xue Pan's eyes, he said, "Wang Jia goes to the side door. I'm afraid I won't be able to climb this door, so I'm not qualified to enter."

The doorman looked embarrassed, but he could only laugh along with him.

When Jia Huan heard this, he sneered in the carriage, but said nothing.When Wang Jia drove to the west side, he saw the corner door that the boy said. He said it was a corner door. The corner door of a rich family must be larger than the gate of an ordinary house. A reported Xue Pan's name, the servant hurriedly asked An to move the pedals, and eagerly wanted to help Xue Pan get out of the car. Wang Jia had a stern face, and looked down on this low-browed guy, so he pushed him aside, and he didn't help him himself. , just guarding one side, the young man saw it behind his back and only curled his lips in disdain.

Xue Pan got out of the carriage first, and said to the guard at the gate, "Call someone to come over and carry the luggage." Seeing that the servant was still in a daze, Wang Jia shouted, "You Huan Sanye have returned to the mansion, why don't you invite you guys?" A servant?! I don’t have the eyesight to see, why don’t you hurry up and ask someone to go!”

The boy nodded and bowed, it should be, and ran in to call for someone, thinking in his heart that Wang Jia had no eyesight, didn't see his master getting off the carriage and didn't help him, he still had the nerve to say so.

Xue Pan tied Jia Huan's belt, and seeing that he was well dressed, he nodded and said, "Let's go in first, and here Wang Jiayan can just watch." His luggage was on the second carriage, and he didn't like to take more servants with him when he went out. The hula-la group is annoying to watch, and it's not that they have no hands or feet to be served all day long.

When the two of them entered Jia's mansion, they naturally paid homage to Jia's mother first.When the two of them arrived at Rongxi Hall, the maid outside the gate saw it, and called Huan brother unsurely. Seeing Jia Huan nodding, she looked shocked, and then looked at the tall and mighty man next to her, she guessed it was Xue Pan. Hurry up to invite Ann, and said: "Uncle Xue is well, I will go in and report---"

"The old matriarch let you in. It's cold and snowy so don't freeze." The main hall lifted the curtain, and the mandarin duck blessed him, saying: "You two come in quickly, yo, this is Brother Huan?!"

The girl opened the curtain, Xue Pan Jiahuan just entered, there was a sweet and greasy smell of powder on the tip of his nose, fearing that there would be a girl and daughter-in-law of Jia's house, Xue Pan didn't dare to look around, Jia's house didn't care about the rules, he had to stick to it .

Sitting on the floor, Jia's mother was very happy to see Xue Pan, and said again and again: "Why did you come to see me today, good boy? How is your mother?"

Xue Pan invited Ann, and the answer was yes.Before Jia's mother could speak, Jia Huan took two steps forward and knelt down to salute. The rules are correct, and it was Leng's help.Jia's mother's attitude became cold, and she gave way. Seeing Jia Huan's appearance, she was also surprised, but she didn't show it. She left Jia Huan aside and said a few words after Xue Pan. Xue Pan's attitude was also polite and indifferent. Mother Jia didn't like the politeness, so she rushed to Jia Huan and said, "Since you are back, can you go see your mother?"

"Huan'er has just come back, so I came to my ancestors first, and after paying my respects to my ancestors, I went to pay my respects to my mother." Jia Huan said flatly.

Jia's mother didn't like it when she saw it. She thought that Jia Huan had changed, and her temper was still so unruly, so she couldn't make it to the big scene, so she waved people away and said, "Okay, go to your mother."

The master and apprentice went out to Mrs. Wang's courtyard. Jia Huan had a gloomy and cold look on his face. Take it to heart, but the hatred has not been revenged, and the hatred is difficult, how can you give up the future and have no grievances in the past? !

When Mrs. Wang heard Caixia say that Jia Huan was back, her eyes darkened, and she said happily: "It's good to be back, let me in quickly."

"---Uncle Xue also followed outside." Caixia said weakly.

Mrs. Wang tightened her grip on the cup, her face turned cold, and then she smiled and said: "It's been a long time since I saw my nephew, I was thinking hard, what should I do in a daze, let me in quickly, put hot tea on Jin Chuan, and that nephew All the fruits will be served."

Just as they were talking, the two came in. Jia Huan saluted and kowtowed to Mrs. Wang first, and said something about mother. Although his voice was warm, it was cold and devoid of emotion.

Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Huan's face twitched, she was stunned and forced a smile, it was strange, she didn't scream, but she cared about her, how could she sleep soundly after eating outside and didn't study seriously, etc. Jia Huan knelt on the ground and answered one by one. Mrs. Wang seemed not to notice, and asked again: "I sent someone there two days ago--"

"Good aunt, it's cold on the ground, Brother Huan is still kneeling." Xue Pan said warmly.

Mrs. Wang looked suddenly enlightened, as if she had just seen Jia Huan on the ground, and hurriedly said: "Why are you still kneeling, look at me, I haven't seen you thinking hard for a long time, and I forgot to wake you up when I spoke. "

Jia Huan straightened her back and knelt straight.

"You child, get up quickly!" Mrs. Wang had a bit of hatred in her eyes, but it didn't show on her face.

Jia Huan just got up.Xue Pan looked at it, and said with a warm smile: "Auntie, it's no wonder that Huan'er came home for two days tonight, I insisted on staying for two more nights."

Mrs. Wang naturally wouldn't point the gun at Xue Pan, she had a small calculation in her heart that she would not offend Xue Pan, but when she looked at Jia Huan, her eyes were fierce. It was Jia Huan who provoked her to leave the house in such a mess. The next time he comes back, he must feel good!
