[Red Chamber] Jia Huan's Army

Chapter 13 A Coincidental Meeting with Hui Yuanchun's Godmother

This day was the second day after passing the recruit assessment. Thanks to Jia Huan's "oppression" before the assessment, all ten members of Jia Huan's team passed, so everyone decided to take advantage of the next day to go to the restaurant together to not get drunk. Not return.

He said he was going to a restaurant, but Jia Huan also knew that with the money in the hands of these poor men, it would be quite difficult to go to a better place.In addition, in order to thank these people for their calm tolerance, Jia Huan generously decided to treat himself.These guys were not polite either, they cheered and responded.Even Huang Daniu patted Jia Huan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Boss, today I want to let my brothers see your family background!"

Jia Huan was not modest, he raised his head a little pretending to be proud, but replied with restraint: "If you don't get drunk today, you won't come home, otherwise you won't be able to live up to my young master Jia's name." Attitude speaks volumes.

In fact, Jia Huan didn't have a lot of money, but he didn't spend much of the monthly money these years, plus Tanchun's occasional subsidies, and Feng Ting's rewards from time to time, in short, it was enough to invite such a few people to a mid-range restaurant.Considering that there is only one day of rest, those who are close may have to go home to have a look, so the dinner is scheduled for noon.

The relationship between Jia Huan and the team is extremely harmonious, and I think it is true. Most of the people who can only rely on their ability but don't pay attention to their age are honest and gentle people who don't value their reputation, so Yan Yan laughed for a while during the meeting.And I also thought that after the assessment, everyone went to different destinations. For example, Jia Huan and Huang Daniu went to the most elite cavalry battalion in the camp because they had the best grades in the assessment, while the others went to the firearms battalion and the infantry battalion. Yes, everyone felt a little parting, so they couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.Even Jia Huan had scruples because of his young age, so he was poured a few cups, and felt a little tipsy when the show was over.

As the most sober person present, Jia Huan insisted on sending everyone away before walking out of the restaurant slowly, planning to meet Feng Ting directly and not going back home today.Jia Huan already knew about Feng Ting's departure from Jia's mansion, so he made an appointment to meet at a teahouse not far from this restaurant.There is still a lot of time before the meeting, Jia Huan intends to walk over slowly to let off the smell of alcohol.

It feels like it’s been a long time since I’ve had a good walk in the street. Now Jia Huan sees everything fresh, even the candy blower across the street finds it quite interesting.The old man who blows sugar is very skilled. A group of children gathered around the stall, their eyes were drooling, and they almost went up to lick it. This scene made Jia Huan laugh, and he didn't feel that this half-grown child was showing such a picture How funny the expressions are.But the old man's craftsmanship is really good, even a little fat man next to Jia Huan couldn't help clamoring to see it.I don't know what happened, seeing that the little fat man couldn't get a response from the adults, he broke free from the hand he was holding, and wanted to run to the opposite side of the street with a few jumps.Looking at the little fat man, Jia Huan still sighed with emotion that this kid is really strong, worthy of his size, and the accident happened at this moment!

A postman came at a gallop while shouting "urgent report". Seeing that the little fat man was about to die tragically before he could react, Jia Huan couldn't care less about watching the excitement at this moment, his mind went blank, his body Naturally, he made a movement - jumped to hug the little fat man, and then rolled aside the child protecting his chest. At this moment, the postman arrived on horseback. If it was a step later, something serious would happen.After doing this series of movements, Jia Huan broke out in a cold sweat from fright, and because of the alcohol, his legs and feet became weak for a while, and he couldn't get up.Fortunately, people along the way stretched out their hands to help, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing.Until the little fat man's family left with the child in their arms, Jia Huan couldn't recover, and secretly decided that he would never do such a fatal thing again.

Unexpectedly, when Jia Huan came back to his senses, he saw that the passer-by who had just pulled him was still standing beside him with a blank expression on his face, which made him a little puzzled. Could it be that he didn't thank him just now?So Jia Huan said politely: "Thank you just now, brother."

"You're welcome, Lian Mo, I admire Xiongtai's righteous deeds very much, and I hope we can make friends. I don't know Xiongtai Gao's name." Lian Mo cupped his hands, and his words were very sincere.

Jia Huan looked at the young man in front of him. Although the clothes were ordinary in color, the materials were expensive, and his gestures showed a kind of self-confidence. Even the words of making friends made people feel that they were honored.To be able to have such a bearing, I am afraid that some noble person travels in disguise.Then Jia Huan didn't dare to make too much of a fuss, he returned the salute respectfully, and said modestly: "I've seen Brother Lian, before I went down to Jia Huan, it was nothing more than a little effort and an unintentional act. I'm really ashamed of it."

"Since I'm older than you, you're welcome. Don't you mind if I call you Brother Huan?" Lian Mo smiled, and said without waiting for Jia Huan's answer: "Brother Huan, you don't have to be humble. Achieving this effort with little effort, I am afraid that there is no such skill."

Although Jia Huan was eager to make a name for himself, he was not someone who got carried away by it.This kind of nobleman's background is unknown, but he hides his head and shows his tail, and he treats himself with some inexplicable enthusiasm. If he says that he has no inside information, he will not be believed.Just why did you choose yourself?What benefits can he get from being a concubine of the duke's mansion?Jia Huan just smiled at the other party and didn't speak, but he kept thinking about what Lian Mo meant.Lian Mo, Lian Mo, yes, isn't that the alias of the Fourth Prince Mo Lian?Jia Huan was startled, this man was a big shot, even he, who knew nothing about politics at the time, firmly remembered his iron-blooded skills as the emperor, and his sister-in-law, Jia Yuanchun, should be in his house at this time , and later became a noble concubine. Although she went quite early, Jia Huan was deeply impressed by the momentary scenery when she became a noble concubine.

Mo Lian looked at the other person's face, knowing that Jia Huan had guessed his identity, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all. He didn't intend to hide it, so he explained solemnly: "There are a lot of people here, it's really not a conversation. It’s a good place, and it’s inconvenient for me to explain my identity. If Brother Huan is fine, you can go to the teahouse with me to talk about it.”

Since Jia Huan already knew Mo Lian's identity and even his future position, it was impossible to be as perfunctory as before, so he nodded and followed Mo Lian into the teahouse.

As soon as the two entered the compartment, Jia Huan no longer concealed it, and saluted very respectfully, "Cao Min pays homage to Your Highness."

Since Mo Lian decided to cultivate a good friendship, he didn't put on airs. Instead, he helped Jia Huan up very kindly, and said, "There is no need to be polite. Speaking of which, your sister is still in my house. Today is also a kind of fate." .”

Speaking of Yuanchun, Jia Huan didn't know what to say for a while. After all, there was too much age difference. When Yuanchun left the house, Jia Huan was only two or three years old. Yuanchun, not to mention any family ties.

In fact, Mo Lian himself has always been a pure-hearted and ascetic person, and he has no understanding of this female official in the mansion, who is equivalent to a candidate for a side concubine, except for some family background.So just mentioning this, he simply let go of the topic and chatted with Jia Huan all over the place.

One intends to win over, the other intends to please, and there is actually quite a lot of fun between the two.Especially when Mo Lian talked about hunting with the emperor, Jia Huan couldn't hide his curiosity, and even forgot to try to please him, so he followed Mo Lian's plain voice with all his attention, and then imagined the grand scene he described in his mind .Of course, Mo Lian could see that Jia Huan was not good at currying favors before, and because of this, he wondered whether this person was worth wooing, but when he saw someone looking at him with such expectant and straightforward eyes for the first time, Well, those doubts dissipated immediately. People who can have this kind of eyes, even though they have thousands of flaws, they still have a pure heart. No matter what, they will not raise a white-eyed wolf.For some reason, Mo Lian suddenly felt that there might be more than just interests between him and the child in front of him.

So although this conversation had its own selfish intentions, it was generally regarded as a joyous occasion for the guest of honor. It was not until Jia Huan and the agreed time that the two ended the endless conversation, but the relationship became closer. , Mo Lian also asked: "I know that it is not convenient for you at ordinary times, next time if you have time, I will take you hunting."

Mo Lian is a man of action, since he decided to get close to Jia Huan, there must be a reason to prevent someone who is interested in seeing him.So on the same day, Jia Yuanchun, the female official of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, was admitted into the room. It is said that she was quite favored. The fourth prince, Mo Lian, stayed in Yuanchun's room for a few days, and he had already written a letter to ask Yuanchun to be his side concubine, and even made an exception. Mrs. Wang, Yuanchun's mother, was allowed to visit her daughter in the mansion.Of course, before Yuanchun met Mrs. Wang, Mo Lian did not forget to secretly reveal that he would entrust the talented children of Jia's family with important use.

After a few days of getting along, Mo Lian has seen that his side concubine is really clear-minded, very good at grasping opportunities, and looking for the best choice for him.This kind of intelligent temperament can't be better in the palace, but it's a pity that the mother's family is Jia's mansion, which can't be supported by mud.Mo Lian believed that if the intelligent Yuan Chun could understand his behavior, then Jia Huan's life in Jia's house would be easier in the future, and Jia's house would restrain his children, at least on the surface. .This kind of easy thing can not only win over Jia Huan, but also give Jia's family a warning so as not to implicate him in anything. It kills two birds with one stone, so why not do it.

Sure enough, Yuan Chun did not disappoint Mo Lian.After exchanging pleasantries with his mother, Mrs. Wang, Yuan Chun brought the topic to the future of the man in Jia's mansion: "Although my daughter is lucky enough to be favored by the prince, she also knows that if she wants to stand firm in this palace, she still needs a family." The influence of the men in the previous dynasty is just that my daughter has watched coldly these years, and the family is very weak in these aspects."

Although Mrs. Wang was emotional after hearing this, she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so she smiled and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, Baoyu has been studying very hard recently, and it should be just around the corner to get a good reputation."

Yuan Chun was very happy to hear that Baoyu was working hard, but he did not forget to tell him: "It goes without saying that Baoyu, my daughter knows it well. Lan'er and the third younger brother are still young, and careful education must also help."

When Mrs. Wang heard about Jia Huan, her face was filled with displeasure, that is to say, she dared to say: "He is promising. The master found a martial arts master for him. The guard camp is on the job, and I'm afraid that in two years it will be on Baoyu's head. In addition, his aunt is not a worry, she was restrained by the old lady some time ago, and she hasn't come out yet."

When Yuan Chun heard this, he already guessed where the Fourth Highness had met Jia Huan, and he was the one who really wanted to support him. In this case, he couldn't let his mother offend him.However, after thinking about it again, I am afraid that with her mother's character, she has already secretly offended people to death after all these years.So he sighed and persuaded: "It's hard for a mother to be a daughter, so why don't you know it. It's just that it is impossible for a concubine to pass over a legitimate son, and the ancestors and father will not allow it. If you can hold Huan'er by the way, let him Thinking about the good of the mansion, it will also be a help to the mansion if it is really promising."

Sure enough, Yuan Chun saw Mrs. Wang's face was in a dilemma, probably not very different from what he thought, so he forced a smile and said: "See what I'm worrying about here, since I'm already out of the house to work, mother can rest assured and let him wander, no matter what. It depends on his own ability, boys can't rely on others for their career." Fu Fu smiled and said, "Mother has Tanchun's younger sister Cheng Huan in the mansion, so she can enjoy the family happiness with peace of mind. If the daughter is not by my side, I might as well And Sister Tanchun honors mother on behalf of her daughter, so my heart is at ease." After finishing speaking, Yuan Chun touched the corners of his eyes with his handkerchief, feeling quite sentimental.

At this time, Mrs. Wang understood no matter how dull she was, it was her daughter who was teaching her to use Tanchun to hug Jia Huan.No matter what you think about it, it is indeed reasonable, and with Yuan Chun's intelligence, he will not aim at the target indiscriminately, probably it has something to do with the fourth prince.Moreover, Tanchun is really well-behaved, if she can really help a big girl like herself, it will be worth it, and she will also gain her reputation as a loving mother.After being understood by her daughter, although Mrs. Wang felt unwilling, she also acquiesced to this approach, which finally made Yuan Chun feel relieved.It's a pity that I don't know how long Mrs. Wang can endure.
