Old things in the Red Chamber

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the days passed slowly like this. For the people who don’t know anything, the life is still that kind of life, and the life is ordinary. For the family who knows the conspiracy, the life is frightening. It's even jittery.

But no matter what, the day agreed by the Jia family and the Zhen family came soon. One month in advance, the Jia family began to send dowry to Jiangnan.

This time the dowry was presented, which aroused the amazement of all the people in the capital.

There were constant discussions along the way.

Jia Gu and Jia She were sitting in a restaurant, ordered a table of food and wine, sat at the window, ate and drank slowly, and casually watched the passing carriages downstairs.

"Great hand." Jia Gu stretched out his head, looked at the team that couldn't see the head in front and couldn't see the end behind, and asked Jia She, "Is the Rongguo Mansion's wealth so rich?"

"Their family's property, I know you know it too, last time you asked someone to move their warehouse, didn't you already know it?"

"People say that the centipede is dead but not stiff, and they also say that the three caves of the cunning rabbit, maybe there are silver hidden in other places."

What he said is completely inferring himself and others, he is keen to hide money in various places, and his own problem, he thinks it is brought in his blood, there must be people who love to hide money in his ancestors.

"Who knows? Anyway, I haven't interfered in the family affairs. The old lady may know, but she won't tell me."

Jia She sighed, and said to Jia Gu in a very serious manner, "Even if their family has such a rich family background, they would not give such a dowry to the third girl. Not to mention, the Wang family is not generous. With so many daughters, it’s better to leave it to my sons and grandchildren.”

"That's why, so many of the things here are not from the Jia family."

"But it's not right. Their family bought a lot of things a few days ago."

"Who told you that the things you bought must be for the third girl as a dowry, maybe they are for your own home. Don't think about it, this excitement has nothing to do with us, go home early, or else, go hide outside for a while For a while."

Jia She looked at Jia Gu in disbelief, "My grandson is still in the capital."

The most important thing is that his grandson is also in the capital, and almost all the next generation are in the capital. At that time, if something really happens, no one will be able to escape.

In winter in the south of the Yangtze River, it is different from the north. The cold in the north is dry and cold, and cotton-padded clothes can keep out the cold, but the cold in the south is damp and cold, and you will feel shivering when you wear cotton-padded clothes, but there are exceptions in some places. In the area of ​​Sichuan and Shu, the four seasons are like spring. I heard that the places going to the south are also warm like spring all year round. However, Jia Xuan, who has lived in the south of the Yangtze River for several years, still feels that he cannot bear this kind of winter.

When he came out to socialize in a fur, many people just smiled understandingly at him wearing such a thick fur.

Zhen Yingjia, the local emperor in the south of the Yangtze River, looked at Jia Xun with a loving smile on his face, "Xu'er has been in Jiangnan for several years, but is he still not used to it?"

Did Jia Huan sneer in her heart, wondering who you were making trouble with, and didn't want to talk to him, and walked forward on her own.

Zhen Yingjia followed from the side, "Our two families are also relatives now, and my younger sister will marry into my family next month. Xun'er didn't reply to the invitation, but she wants to come with her natal family."

Jia Huan stopped, "I haven't told the boss yet, I will definitely go there then. As for my natal family, that's a matter for the Rongguo Mansion. Our family started in the north, so we have nothing to do with the Rongguo Mansion. Besides, their family's The high family status is not something that small families like us can climb up to."

In addition, an old man who came with Zhen Yingjia counted and said, "Young Master said this, we are all relatives, who doesn't know who. Our family..."

"Master Zhen, I have been alone since I was a child, and I have no brothers or sisters. Since when did I become relatives with your family?"

Seeing that Jia Xun was going to be annoyed, Zhen Yingjia smiled tolerantly, "I won't mention this matter, but we are officials in the same dynasty, and the 26th of the twelfth lunar month a month later will be a happy event for our family and Jia's family. My lords, when the time comes, you must have a glass of wedding wine at my house, the Zhen family will be grateful."

After finishing speaking, he clasped his fists to the surroundings, and everyone said that they must go when the time comes.Zhen Yingjia left happily.

A circle of county magistrates standing in the corner couldn’t get in the way on such occasions, and when the people had dispersed, a few younger ones came over to greet Jia Yu, “My lord, the marriage of the Zhen family… you show me , what should we do?"

"Hongmen Banquet, you just stay in your respective government offices. When something happens, just appease the people and don't care about the rest. After these years of enduring, it's time for us to feel proud."

Just as he was talking, Xia Zhi nodded to Jia Xun outside the door. Jia Xun gave these county magistrates a few words and watched them leave.

Jia Xun didn't wear official clothes today, she dressed like a son of a rich family, and rode a horse and led people straight to the Qinhuai River. Everyone said that since the wife of Jiangnan Road's chief executive left, the chief executive has completely changed and began to hang around. Hua Cong had a hot fight with a singer named Hua'er on the Qinhuai River. After a month's work, this singer became very popular.

Jia Xun got off the horse, frowned and got on the boat, thinking that if he went to the river in winter, he didn't know what the guards thought, even if he was frozen for a while, they were frozen every day.

The painting boat is very large, and the staff is relatively well-equipped, from the boatman tortoise to the old lady and the little girl to run errands, everything that one expects to find.

"Master Jia is here." The old lady waved her handkerchief from a distance, the powder on her smiling face fell down, and she twisted her buttocks to greet her.

Not to mention Jia Huan, even Xia Zhi who followed him wanted to turn around and run away.

The old lady's handkerchief slapped Jia Xun's face, "My little lord, why did you come here, my daughter couldn't eat what you wanted just now." She said that she wanted to stick it on Jia Xun.

Jia Xuan wondered where the emperor found someone, and it was not easy to be so dedicated.

He was almost dragged into the boat by the old woman stuck to him.As soon as I entered, I saw a beautiful girl sitting at the table eating big mouthfuls, and the corner of her mouth twitched.

"It's because I think I can't eat anything."

The old lady gave Jia Xuan a blank look, but she was a different person, her temperament was completely different from before, "Master Jia, don't tease our adults, our adults just rode horses for hundreds of miles, and it was not just to get a gift for Mrs. Jia. something important."

The girl who was eating took out her handkerchief from her bosom, and signaled the old lady to move the food away and spread it on the table, "This is the latest news from the capital. By then, my lord, you can dispatch 5 horses from these places. You are the leader of the army." Yes, they know more about the inside than these people outside. These people are the fastest to help you recently. In addition, in another half a month, some of my colleagues will bring about a thousand hidden guards to support you. Your Majesty's meaning , to kill all the people in the Zhen family who participated in the rebellion. Leave a few unimportant ones, and if the emperor asks, let the emperor have something to prevaricate him."

Jia Huan took the map, looked at it, calculated it, and calculated the real plan in his heart, "The minister leads the decree."

"Let's entrust the affairs of Jiangnan to the adults. We are in Jiangnan, and Lord Jia can send you with confidence."

Jia Huan stood up, "Since this is the case, I should prepare as soon as possible. Time is running out, so I have to make some calculations and make a few more plans. Farewell."

"Farewell."

Jia Xun stuffed the map into his bosom, and as soon as he got out of the cabin, the commander of the hidden guard just now tugged at his sleeve, "Young Lord, I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."

To be honest, even though Jia Xun was prepared in his heart, he was taken aback, and quickly threw off his sleeves. In addition to the severe cold on the water, his whole body was shocked by the cold.

Xia Zhi stood between Hua'er and Jia Xuan, the commander of the dark guards, "Presumptuous, don't back down."

The old lady quickly came out and held the flowers, "My poor daughter, why did I meet such a heartless person, what's wrong with my daughter wanting to enter the house?"

Xia Zhi thought that if he shouted again, it would come true, so he quickly said to the boatman, "What are you still doing in a daze? Send our lord to the shore quickly. If our lord has a bad luck, none of you will get lucky."

The boatman looked at the commander of the dark guard and saw that she was crying uncontrollably and hiccupping, so he rowed quickly.

When the boat on this side moved, Hua'er rushed over. The force of the rush was too great, and Jia Huan couldn't stand still, and she was thrown into the water all of a sudden.

"Hurry up and save people, our uncle is a landlubber, hurry up and save people."

The boatmen jumped into the water one after another, and the accident happened here immediately alarmed the nearby flower boats, and the people who were staring at Jia Xuan approached more squarely.

The people in Jiangnan are good at water, and the nearby boat girls also jumped into the water. Jia Xun was rescued by the nearby boat girls. She was very angry, and her clothes were completely soaked in water.

In order to confirm if something happened to Jia Huan when she was thrown by herself, Hua'er hurried to the flower boat at Jia Huan station, her eyes were full of tears, "Little Hou Ye..."

"Don't, back off, Miss Hua, don't appear in front of me in the future, our fate is over. Xia Zhi, what are you staring at, tell the boatman to dock."

Just like that, Jia Xun went ashore completely covered in water, bought a carriage from a nearby family, and let Jia Xun go in with a charcoal basin lit. He took off his clothes and sneezed hard a few times. When Xia Zhi came in and someone else drove the car, he held the map and said to Xia Zhi, "I don't know how to draw this, but it doesn't smudge when I see the water. .Good stuff."

Xia Zhi hurriedly handed over the clothes that others brought quickly to Jia Yu, "It's not that I talk too much, no wonder that damn girl has never been promoted because of her great ability, she turned out to be careless, everyone is acting, she pounced on you with so much strength, you No matter whether she fell into the water or not, their commander will definitely give her a good beating."

"Stop interacting with them. They know too many secrets. We associate with them too much. Maybe we will get into trouble."

Xia Zhi quickly bowed his head, "The subordinates remember what you said."
