Old things in the Red Chamber

After Jia Lian returned home, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

So he approached Wang Xifeng and asked, "Do you think there are people in this world who look exactly the same for no reason?"

Wang Xifeng has not read many books, and all her knowledge comes from her family's precepts and deeds.So at this time, I just answered nonchalantly to my husband's question. "It is said that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and children born to mice can make holes. If there is no relationship, how can there be exactly the same place?"

"Yes, you think so too. Come here and I will tell you quietly. I met two people on the street today. They looked like the old man. They were almost exactly the same. If you want to say something different, it's just It's because the two of them look a little older and look more dignified."

Wang Xifeng thought for a while, "Are you trying to say that someone looks almost the same as our Elder?"

Jia Lian nodded affirmatively.

Wang Xifeng thought about it with her only homework thoughts, and felt that she understood the problem, "Our old lady must be clear about this matter, but there are some things we can't ask, so you just treat it as a matter we don't care about." Know."

What she said made Jia Lian more affirmed her thoughts, "Do you also think they are the sons of our old man?"

Could it be really my uncles.

Just when the two of them were verifying each other's guesses about this matter, the Elder Master sent someone to look for Jia Lian.

"Second Master, you're back. The Eldest Master is in such a hurry. When are you going to deliver that bottle to him?"

Jia Lian temporarily gave up the speculation just now, took out the antique bottle that was stuffed into his arms, put it in a box, and held it in person to find his father.

The elder of Rongguo Mansion watched his son come in at this time, put a box on the table, and asked the people around him to open the box and take out an antique vase.

Master Jia stood up and looked at his son twice before picking up the vase, and looked at it carefully for a while under the sun.

Jia Lian saw that his movements were smooth and smooth, and he became nervous, complaining why he didn't think about it clearly just now, or why he didn't ask someone to take a look. Take a beating.

"My lord, what do you think...?"

"Where did you buy this bottle?"

When Jia Lian heard this, he didn't know how to explain this matter. If it was true, he would be able to tell Mr. Jia that he bought the bottle by himself.If it was a fake one, then the big master would be angry and the boys would drag him out to get a few boards, and he would have to lie on the bed for ten days and a half months.

Jia Lian boldly asked, "I don't know if the old man likes this bottle... It's spent..."

The old man of the Jia family doesn’t care how much his son spent to buy it, “You just need to say where you got this bottle, I don’t know if there are any antique shops in the capital, this thing is also worth it. A good thing... definitely not something you bought from an antique shop."

When things got to this point, Jia Lian didn't want to continue to hide it. For him, it's hard to say whether the two people he met today have anything to do with his family. If someone has malicious intentions, the bottle will not be able to tell at this moment.

So at this moment, he gritted his teeth, "Back to the Elder Master, this matter is a little... I don't know how to tell you..."

If Rongguo Mansion wants to find one or two people in the capital, although it is not easy, it is not difficult to do so.In addition, earlier, Jia Xuan appeared in front of everyone in the Rongguo Mansion, and many people saw his every move afterwards.The elder of the Jia family came to the outside of the small courtyard of Jia Gu and his brothers in a sedan chair.

At this very moment, Jia Gu was complaining about his elder brother. "It was agreed just now that we are going to sell the antiques, and then use the money to buy a decent yard. It's good for you. Don't say anything, you gave the things away. It was so chic when you gave it away, and it's only now that you think about it. "

It was true that I was too impulsive to do things at the time. Now that the matter has been done, it is completely useless to talk about other things at this time.

"Don't talk so much. At that time, I gave things to others, and you didn't stop me. Besides, when we came this time, we brought not only those two things, but also other things. After selling them, we bought the yard. Things like buying a house are enough.”

Jia Gu knew that his elder brother had always been thinking very simple things in his mind all these years, but to avoid the incident of him giving away antiques again, Jia Gu felt that there were some things to say first.

"There is a saying that there are only thieves who can be thieves for a thousand days, but there are no thieves who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. Let some people know that we have antiques hidden in the yard. They come to steal one today and steal another tomorrow. I'm worried that some people will make a fuss about it, accusing us of stealing some big families and accumulating so many antiques."

After all, now, the two of them are common people here, and they have no one to rely on. If they really have a lawsuit, there will be no one to run around for the two of them.So everything must be careful, Jia She also understands this truth.

"I thought about it. Although this place is good everywhere, it is not our home after all. You can come here occasionally, but don't be addicted to it. Don't worry about buying a house. Up to now, neither of us has found a safe one. It’s better to put these antiques somewhere…”

Seeing the embarrassment of the old brother's face, Jia Gu knew that he could not continue, so he changed the topic, thinking that the two of them would find a safe place and properly arrange some antiques that had not been sold. It was stolen and robbed. No one in the family didn't know it. Anyway, it was a great loss, but before he finished speaking, he heard someone knock on the door. The two looked at each other. Jia Gu relied on his own skills to be better. , Watching his old brother put away his things, he went to open the door.

Jia Gu really knew the person outside the door. This person was none other than Mr. Jia from the Rongguo Mansion.When the old man saw someone open the door, the dog legs on both sides rushed forward, pushing Jia Gu aside, and the others lifted the sedan chair.The old man just entered other people's homes in such a grand manner.

Just now, when he saw each other, he did realize that the person in front of him looked exactly the same as himself, but because of the obvious age difference, and at this moment, he could tell that he was more energetic than himself. , Two people standing together are different except for their faces.

He was thinking, but before entering the main hall, another person came out.The person who came out had soft footsteps, and was out of breath when he walked too fast. The two walked across from each other, and you found that it was like looking in a mirror.

Mr. Jia refused to admit that the person opposite him was more similar to himself at present.This kind of resemblance is not only in appearance, but also in temperament and demeanor. Not to mention, the thick dark circles and big bags under the eyes can show that both of them are people who are greedy for sex and enjoyment.

It's a guest from afar, anyway, since we met, we can't let him stand in the yard and stare at the two brothers.Jia Gu very graciously invited Mr. Jia into the room. There were two brothers sitting here, and Mr. Jia was sitting alone on the other side.Several people did not speak, not knowing what to say.

In the end, it was Mr. Jia who was superior, "I heard that you are from other places? I don't know where your ancestors are?"

Jia Gu cupped his hands, "Over there in the north".

Jia Amnesty also cupped his hands, "Jinling."

Two people, two addresses, now makes Mr. Jia feel more interesting. "I see that the two look almost exactly the same, why are the places of their ancestral homes different?"

"Some things have nothing to do with you. After our biological mother gave birth to us, because there was a birthmark on the lower body, many people said that those who committed evil in the previous life could not atone for their sins in hell. Birthmarks are only left on the body in the human world. Because this statement annoyed the biological mother, she gave it away directly."

"So the two are really brothers?"

"If it's a fake replacement."

Mr. Jia doesn't care about things normally, but sometimes he has a lot of thoughts, "Both of you are brothers... Jinling and Beidi are separated by thousands of miles. How did this brother find his family?"

In fact, he wanted to ask more, what do you mean by coming to the capital?Could it be that you are really my father's sons, unwilling to be lonely at this time, wanting to come back and recognize your ancestors?

Speaking of his purpose here, everyone is already clear.Jia She felt that he should treat himself better in this place, and besides, no matter whether it was here or there, the two people would not speak too tactfully.So his answer seemed straightforward.

"Don't worry, we have no plans to go to your house to recognize your ancestors, so you can say anything, our brothers can help as much as possible, and please don't care about those who can't. There are also your affairs, you It has nothing to do with us, even if we look alike..."

But Jia Gu thought differently from his elder brother. Although he heard his elder brother talking endlessly, trying to express his attitude, the more he listened, the more unhappy he became. "Master Jia is telling you the truth, we two brothers have the same father as you."

Just this sentence made Master Jia who was sitting across from him relax instantly.Whether it was just now or now, he would never believe anyone who said to him something that only pays without expecting anything in return.But the person in front of him directly and positively told the matter to his face, which made him feel that the matter was as it should be.
