Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

For such a happy event in Jia Hu High School, Jia She Zhang naturally had to hold a big one.

Regardless of Jia Hu's persuasion, Jia Shezhang was discussing enthusiastically how many guests to invite, how many banquet tables to hold, which opera troupe to invite to come and sing, and Jia Hu would also attend the teacher appreciation banquet, and go to Master Kong Duanfang to pay his respects. Before, I had a good talk with Jia Shezhang, just celebrate a little bit, don't make it public, but as soon as he left, Jia Shezhang turned around and forgot his words, thinking happily, being named on the gold list, one of the four joys in life, my son is like this No matter what the future is, you have to let your relatives and friends see it, and you should show it off yourself.

Waiting for Jia Hu to leave Kong's house and go home, the gold-sprinkling post has already been sent out everywhere, relatives, old friends, distant relatives and old acquaintances, all of them have been notified, and when the time comes, there will be less than ten or twenty tables open.

Facing Jia Hu's helplessness, Jia Amnesty was very upright and confident: "Why, I am willing to hold a banquet for my son's success, so what else can others say?!" His son is so promising, how can he just hide it like this? In front of all relatives and friends, I have to pull my son out for others to see, and listen to their envious and jealous words before I finish. Otherwise, I have waited for so many years for him to win the exam. Wasn't it in vain?What's the point of walking in brocade clothes at night, he Jia She finally raised a Tanhua son, so he has to straighten up and enjoy the envious eyes of others.

Mrs. Zhang also didn't help Jia Hu: "In the past, you used to say that you would wait for the imperial examination to discuss marriage, but now it's not after the imperial examination. You still got such a good rank. Why don't you hurry up and invite your relatives and friends to come over and take a good look at it? How long do you have to wait for planning and planning? When all the guests come, you stand in front of them, and let me say a few words that you are not married yet, why don't you hurry up and pick a partner for you? How many good girls can I know by myself? It’s better if we all help to find it together.”

Jia Hu was still struggling to die: "But I only won a Tanhualang, not the number one..."

Before he finished speaking, Jia Shezhang stared and raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong with Tanhua, whoever said that Tanhua is not as good as the number one scholar, who doesn't know that Tanhualang is the richest man among the top three?" Handsome? Others want to be a Tanhualang, let's see how capable they are!"

Even Su Mama, Jin Mama and others also laughed and said: "Could it be that the master and wife are born so handsome and suave as the master, ordinary people, even if they have enough knowledge, their appearance is not enough for the position of Tan Hualang. Only our uncle is really more beautiful and handsome than the girl."

Jia Hu really couldn't handle such a joke, and moaned helplessly: "Mom, stop talking, I'm a big man, how can I say I'm beautiful."

But these days, it’s a good thing for a man to look like a spring flower. Just Jia Hu protested, but didn’t he take good care of his hair, skin and body that day, and Jia Shezhang also used tonics and soups for health and beauty every day? , Hearing Su's mother and others joking, the two were happy instead, and proudly said: "That's not the case, my son's appearance is also one of the best in Beijing, who wouldn't boast about his good looks." Jiao Hao, how could she give birth to such a handsome son?Jia She and Mrs. Zhang bypassed the relationship, and found that boasting her son was just praising herself, so she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, but Mrs. Zhang pretended to be distressed: "Just one thing, my son is so good-looking, ordinary girls are not good enough, It will take some effort to pick someone who is virtuous and beautiful for you."

Speaking of Jia Hu's marriage, Su's mother and Jin's mother immediately got excited, and said jokingly: "It's not too much trouble, last time I went to Mr. Zhou's house with my wife to appreciate chrysanthemums, hey, those girls, look She looks delicate and pretty, but now that I think about it, if I want to stand next to our uncle, it is really the difference between the light of the sun and the moon and the firefly, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't match well."

Mrs. Zhang laughed so hard that she looked at Jia Hu jokingly, and said, "Yes, now that I think about it, Hu'er's marriage is really worrying..."

Jia Hu knew that he couldn't stop Jia She and Zhang's idea of ​​celebrating, in order to prevent Zhang and Jia She and others from making fun of him again, Jia Hu resolutely reasoned that there was something else to do, and went back to the house.

In Jia Lian's eyes, I couldn't help but sympathize with my elder brother. My mother and father are becoming more and more out of shape. How could anyone make fun of their son? still far away...

Jia Hu's entry into the Imperial Academy was appointed by the emperor, but the Ministry of Rites still has some procedures to go through, so Jia Hu still has some time to rest and do his own things. The next night, Jia Shezhang was so happy that he didn't sleep all night when he thought of his son wearing a wedding robe and riding a big horse, led by officials from the Ministry of Rites, around the streets of the capital, and being praised by people for being such a handsome and young Tanhualang. Get up and get dressed, and wait for Jia Hu to greet them.

Suo Xing Jia Hu was really considerate of them, knowing that they must be too excited to sleep, so he simply got up early and came over to chat with them and have breakfast.Sure enough, seeing his son wearing the auspicious clothes sent by the Ministry of Rites, the bright red hair made him look like a morning glow, his eyes were like waves, and his body was like a green pine. In the morning, he also told himself to 'pretend to be a parent', and happily accompanied Mrs. Zhang to laugh at his son: "Today, there are many people who go to see the top three horse racing parade. My son is so good-looking. I don’t know how many girls will be fascinated. When the flower veils fall down, son, you have to see clearly. You can’t pick up those ugly and ordinary colors. Don’t be shy, if you like it, let it People pay attention, and tell us later, so we can invite a matchmaker."

Jia Hu blushed, "Marriage is an important matter, the parents' order and the matchmaker's words, who can the son look up to!"

After laughing like this, when the time came, Jia Hu solemnly saluted Jia Shezhang, and thanked his parents solemnly: "Thank you, father and mother, for your careful teaching all these years. My son is today, thanks to his parents."

Jia Shezhang refrained from joking, accepted the gift calmly, and said, "This is also due to your hard work, not just ours." Even so, Jia Shezhang's heart is full of pride when his son respects them so much. Very.

When Jia Hu arrived at the gate of Derong State Mansion, someone from the Ministry of Rituals had already brought the imperial horse with a big red silk flower tied on its head. He didn't need the support from the Ministry of Rituals, he grabbed the reins with one hand, put his left foot on the stirrup first, and as soon as he exerted force, he got on the horse neatly, sat upright on the horse, adjusted his bright red auspicious clothes, and looked heroic. All the spectators applauded loudly: "You really deserve to be Tanhualang!" Hearing that, Xiao Si's servants crowded together at the door of Jia's house all straightened up proudly.This is not something that ordinary Tanhualang can do, only their uncle, who is not only good at learning, but also good at martial arts, that's why he is so agile and beautiful on horseback, do you think anyone can do this? !

Jia Hu set off from Ningrong Street, went all the way to the gate of the palace to meet Tang Bin Kang Guangji, and the three of them first thanked the emperor in the direction of the main hall at the gate of the palace. In the capital, we will go to the Qionglin Banquet in the evening.It can be said that Tang Bin, Kang Guangji and Jia Hu are the focus of the entire capital today.

The demeanor of an official is also a requirement. The so-called official prestige must also be decent for the official's own appearance. Only by wearing official prestige can he look decent.If someone is wretched in appearance, he doesn't look like a prince in a dragon robe. Such a person, no matter how good his knowledge is, cannot be an official.Otherwise, the previous and current dynasties would not stipulate that those who are disabled, disfigured, or inappropriate in appearance are not allowed to be officials.It can be seen that those who can stand out from several rounds of examinations, and finally get the honor, are not bad in appearance.

Today among the Three Tripod Armors, apart from Jia Hu, it is Kang Guangji who is the oldest, in his thirties, and the children in the family are already grown up, but he is still very personable, with elegant eyebrows, dressed in auspicious clothes, although he cannot match Jia Hutang Compared with the guests, they are also full of energy, smiling, and feel friendly when they see them.

As for Tang Bin, his facial features are as handsome as a sculpture, his complexion is healthy, and the red color suits him quite well. When his phoenix eyes move around, his coquettish demeanor makes the young ladies beside the two roads tremble.He is tall and slender, rather wild and unrestrained. He wears an auspicious suit on Jia Hu, which is gentle and elegant. Even the fiery red seems to have faded a bit from the heat, but when worn on him, it is like adding fuel to the fire. It is wanton and enthusiastic The color is now even more flamboyant and unrestrained, making him smile, raise his hand, and turn his head, it is as dazzling as the sun, and it is hard not to feel overwhelmed by it.

The three of them were riding horses and parading through the streets together, and they were also the identities of the three tripods. The onlookers on the side of the road were going crazy, especially Tang Bin and Jia Hu were not married yet. First, a flower was thrown over, and then countless flower handkerchiefs and purses were thrown at the three of them. On both sides of the road, some shouted "The champion is so handsome", and some shouted "Tanhualang looks good", lively. It's like a holiday.

Tang Bin and Jia Hu were smashed all the way by the flower handkerchief and purse, but they were wearing red wedding clothes, otherwise the juice from the flowers would have stained the flowers.And who doesn't know what is hidden in the handkerchief in the purse? Some of the light and light objects hurt when they hit the body. , It’s not good to blame the people for being too enthusiastic, so I can only bear the messy and dirty clothes, endure the pain, and look around with a smile.

Looking at them like this, Kang Guangji no longer felt any envy, and said with a smile: "In the past, Wei Jie was killed, but now that I see two adults, I understand what's going on." Seeing that girl is so rich, A lot of gemstone earrings were thrown out, but looking at his frowning when it hit Jia Hu, tsk tsk, it must have hurt.Kang Guangji was extremely fortunate, thanks to his marriage, everyone knew that he escaped this catastrophe.

Tang Bin picked up a flower casually, lowered his head and sniffed it deeply for a while, then turned his head and smiled at Kang Guangji and Jia Hu, and said, "That Wei Jie is a sick seedling, otherwise, it would be gone after just being smashed by that melon for a while. I have let down the grace of a beauty in vain, I am no better than him, beauty is like a flower, their kindness cannot be let down." As he spoke, he looked back at the women beside the road who were screaming and blushing as if they were crazy, and smiled with satisfaction. Seeing those women who were still hiding their secrets blushed, even the girl next to the lady wearing a veiled hat in the restaurant was chattering non-stop, and the already boiling atmosphere became even more heated.

Kang Guangji exclaimed: "The girls in the capital are so bold, they are so bold." In Changde, women dare not show their faces like this, and even scream at the number one scholar. No.

In his previous life, Jia Hu was used to those noble ladies who were really generous in their words and deeds, but he didn't like the small battle in front of him: "It's just a small family with a small family. Look at the restaurants on both sides, those ladies and grandmas, But they all wear veiled hats. Once every three years, they ride horses through the streets, as long as they are careful and come out to have a look, it’s not a big deal." Beijing is still lenient on this point.But compared to those years ago, when those noble girls took their men to ride horses and play around, all this was nothing more than pediatrics.Looking up at Kang Guangji, without him saying anything, Jia Hu knew that he was probably also the one who believed that women should stay out of the door. He felt that the actions of these girls who were fresh and cute, fell into his eyes, and he was afraid. It's just indecent.

Tang Bin was finally willing to pull his mind away from the flowery woman, and said to the two of them, "No, it's just going out to play, what's the big deal, we Jiaxing, good friends go out, as long as you bring your mother-in-law with you. It’s not a big deal to take a pleasure boat.” Just when he saw a beautifully dressed woman from a good family smiling at him in a restaurant beside the road, Tang Bin felt a bright smile come back, and the girl pulled out a stick from her hair. Yu scratched his head and threw it over, Tang Bin caught it quickly with his eyes and hands, took a closer look, and stuffed his hands into his sleeves - many girls below were dazzled, and rolled their eyes at the girl upstairs for a while.

Kang Guangji glanced at Tang Bin, and said with deep meaning: "Master Tang is indeed young and romantic."

Tang Bin smiled slightly and ignored him.

Jia Hu is no better than Tang Bin who sometimes makes small gestures with his eyes to make fun of the girls next to him, but he is also the ideal husband of all the girls because of his appearance and family background. Tight, seeing that Tang Bin didn't reject the woman's jade head scratching, one after another became more courageous, throwing all kinds of sachets, silk flower bracelets, earrings and so on at Jia Hu.

However, Jia Hu didn't know how to be sympathetic to jade, he didn't even look at those things thrown over, he dodged a few times, most of those things fell on the ground, and some fell on him, he didn't reach out to grab them, but loved them Carefully stroking the Yu Ma who was a little irritable after being hit by those hard objects, with almost invisible boredom in his eyes.

Looking at Jia Hu's attitude, Tang Bin knew that he didn't like these kinds of people. He might be bored with this kind of occasion, so he didn't bother him, and enjoyed the hilarity at the moment.Kang Guangji didn't know how to read people's eyes. Seeing that Jia Hu was silent, just sitting quietly, he said with a smile: "Miss Jia is not married yet. Now that there are so many young ladies in two families, my lord is not tempted? It depends. If you hit the person you like, don't be reserved, Mrs. Jia will be named on the gold list, and there will be a bridal chamber festivities, it will be double happiness."

Jia Hu glanced at him indifferently: "Brother Kang was joking. My wife is ordered by my parents and the matchmaker. My wife will naturally have parents to help me. Brother Kang, don't make such a joke about a girl's name." Kang Guangji choked. His face was all black.Tang Bin didn't seem to think it was messy enough, so he chuckled, without even turning his head, and the corners of Kang Guangji's mouth were pulled down.

Something was thrown towards Jia Hu's face, but Jia Hu caught it, but it was a peanut. Looking up, Han Yan was leaning against the window of the restaurant facing the street, holding the peanut in one hand, and pointing at him with the other, smiling. He leaned forward and leaned back, beside Tu Youhao stood quietly, tall and tall, full of smiles.

Jia Hu lowered his head to look at his clothes, which had been beaten by flower juice, and hurriedly tidied up the somewhat messy skirts. When he looked up, Han Yan was still smiling. After thinking for a while, he touched his head with his hands. Touching a flower from the hair crown, he rode a horse and approached the restaurant. Han Yan compared a peanut and put it on his head. He laughed and said, "Tan Hua Lang has such a good face, what a handsome gentleman!"

Everyone around said yes, Tu Youhao frowned, couldn't hide the smile on the corner of his mouth, and said silently: "What a handsome gentleman!"

Jia Hu's face turned black, these two bad friends!

On this day, everyone in the capital knew that Tan Hualang, the number one scholar in the current department, was handsome and elegant, and he was a rare young talent, a great guy!
