The Jia family originally liked to hold a banquet to celebrate whenever they had something to do, but now, as Wang Xifeng said, how could they not celebrate with three happy occasions.

It's just that Jia Jue is not a lively person, or he can't stand the excitement of Jia's house.

"Third Master, the old lady said that she wants you to meet some concubines in the past."

"Toffee?" Didn't the late emperor's toffees all die? After all, Emperor Jinyang has been on the throne for more than 30 years.

"Yes, there are Concubine Nan'an and Concubine Beijing."

Jia Jue frowned. These two families were kings with different surnames. When the dynasty was founded, four kings and eight princes were enshrined. Now the only four kings with different surnames are the King of Nan'an and the King of Beijing.

Compared with the Beijing County King who no longer has military power, the Nan'an County King who has guarded the southwest border for generations is even more taboo by the royal family in Jia Jue's view.

And he really didn't understand why these concubines wanted to see him.

"Understood, you go and tell grandma, I have a lot of alcohol on my body, go to Qinghuiyuan to change clothes first, and then go to greet grandma."

"Yes."

Jia Jue came to Jia Lian's side and told him in a low voice that Jia Mu had something to do with him and asked him to entertain these guests for him.

"Third brother, go, don't worry, I'm here to watch." Jia Lian was good at communication and wanted to know more people, so naturally there was nothing wrong with it.

"Trouble second brother."

"What my brother said was troublesome."

Yixia accompanies Jia Jue back to the Qinghui Courtyard, but he realizes something is wrong as soon as he enters the door.

"Why is there no one? Didn't they arrange a few little maids to guard in the yard?" Some of their close servants waited and looked after the third master, and some were borrowed by Wang Xifeng to help. After all, it is impossible In order to hold a banquet, I went to temporarily buy a servant girl.

But the Qinghui Courtyard couldn't be left without people watching, so a few maids who usually do cleaning work outside were left to watch the courtyard.

But now the room is empty, so what is going on.

"Okay, these little maids must have gone out to watch the show again!" Yi Xia was about to explode on the spot.

"Okay, now that the family is coming and going, don't make a scene and embarrass yourself. You can deal with it after the matter has passed." Jia Jue frowned. He didn't have any objection to these little maids going out to watch the fun, but Even if you want to go out to watch the fun, don't you come in turns?

You must know that the ancient buildings were all made of wood, but now there are candles lit in several places in his yard. What if there is no one watching and the water runs out.

"Yes, Lord." Yixia was slightly relieved to hear that Jia Jue's tone did not mean to blame her.Although it is good for the third master to bring a few of their personal servants, if they do something wrong, the third master will not show favoritism, but will punish them more severely.

Now the entire Jia family's servant circle knows that following the third master Jue has the best future.The master and the servants are all prosperous and the other is damaged, just like the second wife's companion of Zhou Rui's family. She was so majestic when the second wife was in charge of the house.Even a few girls need to give him three points of face.

But ever since the second wife fell ill and was bedridden, Zhou Rui's family's status in the mansion has dropped again and again.Now he is just holding on to the Xue family like a rascal, just thinking about getting more money.I don't know how many people are laughing at Zhou Rui's family in private.

Yi Xia served Jia Jue to change clothes. Although Jia Jue was a scholar, he never stopped exercising every day.Therefore, compared with those scholars who have no strength to restrain chickens, Jia Jue's figure is definitely considered to be thin and fleshy in clothes.

Yixia is now 16 years old, so she naturally has a lot of thoughts on her mind, and she faces such an outstanding person like Jia Jue every day.Naturally, there are other thoughts.

It's a pity that Jia Jue didn't have such thoughts, he treated the maids who followed him almost equally.Looking at their eyes is no different from looking at the four servants.

For him, pulling the Jia family out of the abyss is what he has been thinking about since he was a child.Even because I have read the original book, I always feel a little defensive towards the maids around me.He may not have noticed this himself, but it is vividly reflected in his life.

Jia Jue changed her clothes and strode out.He didn't see Yi Xia's slightly pink face at all.

Yi Xia: ...

Jia Jue, who was walking to the door, stopped suddenly.

"Yi Xia, you stay in the yard and watch the candles. It's bad if something goes wrong. I'll go to the old lady's side, so you don't have to follow."

"Master!" Mo Mo was already waiting with a lantern on the outside of the Qinghui Courtyard.He just went to get his grandfather a hangover soup for one night, but when he came back, he found that his grandfather was gone. After asking Second Master Lian, he found out that the old lady was there.On the way, I was told that the master had returned to Qinghuiyuan first.This is not in a hurry to rush over, but luckily just caught up.

"You are here, let's go."

As soon as I arrived at Rongqing Hall, I could hear the lively voices inside.Jia Jue paused, and motioned to Guan Mo.

Guan Mo understood, and hurriedly asked the servant girl of Rongqing Hall to report to the old lady.

"Reporting to the old lady, the third master Jue is here. He is waiting outside." The servant girl came in and saluted three steps away from Jia Mu.

"Understood, this child is the rule. Tell him that there is no one else in the room, just us old ladies."

"Yes, old lady."

"As expected of you, he is a good boy who obeys the rules." Concubine Bei Jing complimented her with a smile. Now that the Jia family is about to rise again, she doesn't need money to say a few more nice words.

"I don't dare to be that. What kind of character is the Beijing County King? No one in the court praises it. The County King also grew up under your knees. When it comes to teaching children, you still know how to teach."

Mother Jia also made some compliments, but the two old ladies looked at each other and smiled.

Concubine Nan'an, who was left out in the cold, had a cold face, and just wanted to make a stab.

"Grandson met Grandmother, Grandmother Jin'an, I met Concubine Beijing, Concubine Nan'an, and Concubine Jin'an."

"Hey, this is our No. [-] scholar in the sixth grade. Hurry up and show off, he looks so good." Dowager Bei Jing felt that her son was considered first-class in appearance.Unexpectedly, this young man from the Jia family was not inferior to her son at all.Even more than that.

"You've made this old mistake again, don't scare my grandson." Mother Jia cast a reproachful look at Princess Beijing.

"That's my hobby. Everyone has a love for beauty. How can I scare your precious grandson." Concubine Bei Jing is straightforward. Of course, this has something to do with her identity. She is the princess of the royal family and the cousin of the late emperor. .This is also the reason why the King of Beijing County is now in charge of Dali Temple.

This concubine has liked beauties since she was young, and the reason why she married into the Beijing Palace was also because the Prince of Beijing was so handsome.That is to say, this is a senior color control.

Mother Jia and Concubine Bei Jing can be regarded as handkerchief friends and best friends, because the husbands who married each other are family friends and have a good relationship.So the relationship between the two has been maintained until now.

Jia Jue was dragged by Concubine Bei Jing to babble a few words, but he could hear some clues from it.It's no wonder that when the Jia's family ransacked the house, the King of Beijing extended his hand to the Jia's family.

"The old lady is really blessed. Not only her grandson is promising, but her granddaughter is also promising. It is said that Jia Guiren in the palace is quite favored. If she had such a blessing a few years ago, the old lady might have one more prince. Where's the great-grandson, hehe!" Princess Nan'an's voice was a little sharp, which sounded harsh, and of course what she said was also very uncomfortable.

Jia Jue raised her eyebrows. Does this Concubine Nan'an have any disagreements with the Jia family?

"What are you talking about, old man! Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, and there is no early or late for the grace." Before anyone else could speak, Princess Bei Jing spoke first.

Moreover, the moment she opened her mouth, Princess Nan'an was speechless. She had a hundred guts and did not dare to talk nonsense when it came to the present-day Saint Princess Nan'an.

Jia Jue smiled slightly, Concubine Nan'an is not a smart person, what she meant by what she said, is she trying to say that the current emperor is infertile, I don't know what it means.

Jia Jue talked with Jia Mu and Princess Beijing for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Princess Beijing got up to leave.

"Master, please slow down, slow down!"

"Grandma, grandma, you have to decide for your granddaughter!"

At this moment, there was a loud noise at the door, and then two [-]- or [-]-year-old girls suddenly broke in.Jia Jue was a step slower when he wanted to avoid it.

"What's going on?" Concubine Nan'an was furious when she saw her granddaughter in such a mess.

Jia Jue bowed his head and stood aside very politely. He couldn't leave at this time.

"Xining?"

"Ah, grandma, it's all Shui Xi. The granddaughter just accidentally broke a jade pendant of hers, and she didn't let her go. She even hit someone. Woohoo, grandma, you have to decide for the granddaughter!"

The county magistrate of Xining secretly looked at Jia Jue who was standing while crying.Of course, Mother Jia, who was always at the top, also saw it and frowned.

"What, you're injured, it's unreasonable."

"Hmph! Which of the jade pendants worn by their girls is not close to the skirt, I really want to know how the Xining County Lord accidentally broke it." Beijing Taifei gave the Xining County Lord a contemptuous look, thinking that she I didn't see her staring blankly at Third Young Master Jia just now.

"Zhao Yinwan!" Princess Nan'an was furious!

"What's the matter, are you trying to have a higher voice than anyone else?"

"Old lady, Princess Changning and the girls are here!" Yuanyang looked at the two concubines who looked like fighting cocks, and reported back to Mother Jia in fear.

"Grandmother!" Jia Jue reminded Jia Mu that he was still there.

"Jue'er, go ahead and take a look first." Jia Mu's expression is indeed not good now, but her tone towards Jia Jue is still kind.

Jia Jue bowed to Jiamu and said goodbye.

Tsk, women are really scary, no matter what age group they are.

Jia Jue avoided it, but it was obvious that the Xining County Lord who broke in suddenly was extremely unruly.

"Third Master?" Guan Mo saw Jia Jue coming out, and immediately came up to meet him.

"Let's go, let's go to the front to see if the guests have left." Seeing that the time is almost up, Bless everyone has left.

"Third Master, slow down! If you fall, the old lady will have to skin the slave." Guan Mo was still a little strange, as if his master was being chased by some scourge.

The next day, because Jia Jue slept late yesterday, it was rare for him to get up early.

It's just that when he got up, he saw that the girls in his yard seemed very excited.

"Why are you so happy when something good happens?" Jia Jue asked.

"Uh, Yidong is a little short of words."

"What's the matter? You can't tell me." Jia Jue was in a very good mood as there was no banquet today.

"It's just some rumors in the house, I'm afraid I don't want to hear it."

"tell me the story."

"Uh, yes. Yesterday in the old lady's house, the county lord Xining of Nan'an County and the lord Changning of Beijing County had a terrible quarrel. It is said that the lord Xining robbed the jade pendant of Princess Changning and threw it on purpose. Bad. That jade pendant is a wish left by Princess Changning's mother and concubine to Princess Changning. Princess Changning slapped County Lord Xining."

"That's what you deserve!" Jia Jue raised his eyebrows. He didn't have a good impression of the Xining county magistrate who broke in yesterday. Now that he heard Edong's words, it proved that she provoked everything. Being a guest at someone else's house is so arrogant, without a tutor.

"That's what everyone said. I heard from the sisters who were serving the girls yesterday that the Xining county lord is very difficult to serve. Not only did they satirize Miss Bao, but also said that she, the daughter of a merchant, dared to sit in the same room with her She also said that Miss Lin is sick, so she doesn't have a long life at first sight. The three girls in our family were also ridiculed by her and said that they were raised by young mothers."

Jia Jue was speechless. It is probably because of the blessings of his ancestors that the Xining county lord can live safely until now.

"I have never seen such a lady like this before. This Xining county lord has been staying in the southwest. Now that I return to the capital at this age, I am afraid that I want to find a good marriage in the capital, but which one like her Dare to marry."

Yidong didn't think it was possible to hide what happened yesterday, and besides, the old lady didn't issue a password.According to her understanding, the deeds of County Lord Xining will be publicized soon.

"My sister and younger sisters have also been wronged. You go and choose some suitable ones from my new gifts and send them to them, so that they don't care about fools."

"Yes." Yidong almost laughed when he heard the word fool.The third master still hits the nail on the head like this, and he doesn't have the slightest thought of pity and sympathy.Yidong thought of Yixia who asked for leave because he was unwell, and thought in his heart that he would go there later and say a few words of comfort.

"Also, Lord, those maidservants who left without authorization yesterday to join in the fun have been reported to Mama Lin, and have been taken away by Mama Lin. Mama Lin asked if you want to re-select some."

"You take the candidate, be careful, and tell them the rules of Qinghuiyuan after you have chosen. I don't want to see this kind of thing again."

"Yes, sir."

"Are ink-watching and paper-watching on duty today?"

"On duty."

"Let them go out with me."

"Yes!"

Jia Jue asked An to report to Jia Mu that he was going out.

"The grandson has never visited the house bestowed by the emperor. Although he doesn't live there, he must know where it is and send some people to clean and maintain it. But our family has a lot of servants, the grandson thought. Don't cause too much trouble for the second sister-in-law, it's better to go to Ren Yazi to see if there is any suitable one."

"Although the marriage between grandson and Princess Chaoyang has been finalized, the Qin Tianjian did not give a specific date. The grandson and Princess Chaoyang are not very old. King Yong may not let the princess so soon. Married. So the mansion will not be used for a while. But the necessary maintenance still needs to be done.” If no one lives in a house and maintains it, it will soon be abandoned, especially the ancient courtyard.

"You have grown up too. Grandma is very relieved. Just don't hide any difficulties. Just tell grandma."

"The grandson knows."

Jia Jue didn't want to use the servants of the Jia family, and Jia's mother would not fail to understand what he meant, but Jia's mother expressed her support, and Jia Jue was very moved by this.

When Jia Jue left the gate with Guanmo and Guanzhi, Yidong also took Jia Jue's gift to Baoxia Residence next to Rongqing Hall.Sure enough, several girls were there.

"Yidong, why are you here? Is there something wrong with the third brother?" Xichun was the first to see Yidong who brought a bunch of maidservants.

"The servant has met all the girls. The third master heard early this morning that the girls were wronged yesterday, so the third master asked the servant to pick out some gifts for the girls, and told the girls not to argue with fools ’” Edom said the last sentence very lightly, but all the girls present heard it.

For a moment, the girls looked at each other in dismay. They didn't expect that Jia Jue, who always gave people the impression of being a gentleman, would say such a thing.

After a while of silence.

"Pfft!"

"Ha ha!"

"Haha, third brother really said that?"

"Slaves dare not lie." Yidong smiled and asked the maid behind him to put things on the table.

The girls didn't go to see the presents right away.

"It seems that the third brother doesn't have a good impression of that Xining county lord."

"I heard from my grandmother's elder sister Hu Po that the Xining county magistrate was in a terrible state, and kept peeking at third brother while crying."

"There is such a thing, it is really shameless."

"The Lord of Xining County used to be in the southwestern border. There are so many places where people can't get enough to eat. They must not understand the etiquette rules. After all, the saints say that the warehouse is honest and shameful. The Lord of Xining County has been affected. It is also inevitable.”

"Sister Bao is right, it's just that it's a bit too big-hearted to go out as a guest without learning the rules."

"It's not easy for us sisters to say anything about the family's tutor, just like what the third brother said, if a dog bites you, you can bite back."

"Pfft, fourth sister, you are getting sharper and sharper."

The girls laughed and made a fuss, and the atmosphere in the room immediately became less depressing than before.Several people were also in the mood to look at the gift from Jia Jue.

Because these were given to Jia Jue by others, there are more of the Four Treasures of the Study among them.Fortunately, the girls are all talented, and they like these things very much.

Xue Baochai felt a little complicated as she took her share.

She was deprived of the quota for the election, which was a huge blow to her, but after hearing that cousin Yuanchun in the palace became a nobleman of the emperor, she felt that it was not a bad thing not to enter the palace, even if it was the ninth five Xue Baochai doesn't want to serve an old man in his sixties either.

That day, their mother and daughter were still discussing that it would be a very good marriage if they could marry Jia Jue, but they soon found out that Jia Jue was given to marry the daughter of Prince Yong.

How can such a noble girl compare to her, a daughter of a merchant, Xue Baochai felt sad.Now the mother's eyes are on Jia Baoyu. Although this person seems to be bad in every way, he is still the son of the Duke's mansion, and Jia Jue will not let his cousin ignore him if he is promising in the future.

And now that my aunt is seriously ill, I don't know when she will go, and there will be no mother-in-law on her head.As long as there is enough dowry, life can be very chic.

But compared with Jia Jue, Jia Baoyu was never in her consideration.
