Stealing Fragrance and Stealing Jade in the Red Chamber

The grass is rolling, the willows are drooping, it is early spring, and the weather is bright.

A group of people strolled along the river, quite a bit of idle poetry.

"I heard that you recently handed over Zhenpin Pavilion to Jia Lian, your second brother." He said he was asking, but there was no doubt in his tone.

"In the future, slowly, I don't care about it." Jia Lang knew that they couldn't leave him alone, and the source of goods in his hands was the foundation for Zhenpin Pavilion to survive.

"You don't want any money?" Yuan Heng was rather puzzled.

"Leave it to them to manage." How could Jia Lang take advantage of others for nothing, as long as he can control the source of goods, he will be invincible, so there is no need to bother so much.

"Oh~ I think I'm too lazy." After Yuan Heng finished speaking, he rolled his eyes.

He didn't know how to roll eyes, but seeing Jia Lang used it before, he also found it very interesting, so he learned it.

"Pay attention to your image, you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Jia Lang looked at the 'old and unscrupulous' who rolled his eyes.

"Now you know that I am His Highness the Crown Prince, why did you go so early?" Yuan Heng didn't care.

Jia Lang took a fixed look at Yuan Heng and walked away silently.

"Hey, don't, don't." Yuan Heng hurriedly pulled Jia Lang back.

If others saw Yuan Heng and Jia Lang getting along like this, their eyes would probably pop out.

There is no reason for this.

I don't know what the current Holy Majesty thinks, if His Royal Highness is asked to disguise himself and go to the academy to study, it is not impossible to experience the life of a poor scholar.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will stay for a year, and only Mr. Chen in the academy knows the details of this prince.

Jia Lang is not the kind of person who likes to hang out and socialize. The problem is - the crown prince shares the room with him!

With Jia Lang's personality, the two of them became bad friends.

Later, after knowing the identity of this person, Jia Lang was overwhelmed by four words——Teacher tricked me! !

Thus, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince became his backer.

There are really like-minded people in this world.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loves acting, is a bit of a ruffian, and doesn't like reading, but he has a strong view on government affairs and current affairs.

He is good at hiding, and his thoughts are deep enough, but he is not a treacherous person.

As long as the prince is a bit tolerant, Jia Lang will never show his true nature.It is precisely because of this generosity and tolerance that Jia Lang still maintains his own nature in front of Yuan Heng.

When two bumbling people get together, every day is a big show.Jia Lang pretended to be a young man with arrogance, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pretended to be a virtuous corporal. This act, on the contrary, raised the reputation of both of them to a higher level.

The debate was originally intended to be mild. After all, everyone knew the relationship between the two of them in private. Who would have thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would provoke him again and again, but in the end he would 'be out of control'.

Then, the emperor was happy.

"What's new recently? And I finished eating the snow crystal rice last time." His Highness the Crown Prince reached out his hand towards Jia Lang very shamelessly.

"Hehe." Jia Lang slapped His Highness Prince's hand away.

Yuan Heng knew that Jia Lang was a man with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and he liked to hide every time he had something good, but if you asked him for it, his attitude was not good but he was not stingy.

I don't see close people being wronged the most, so I try every means to give you gifts and warmth.

At first, Yuan Heng felt that Jia Lang was a novelty and always wanted to tease him.

After getting along for a long time, I felt that Jia Lang was a real person, and unconsciously I was partial to Jia Lang.

"I don't have snow crystal rice, but I have purple rice and green rice. There is still a little rice wine, just a little, is there any more?" His Royal Highness supported Zhenbao Pavilion without asking for a penny, and Jia Lang naturally reciprocated.

But Jia Lang never gave those gold and silver playthings, he always gave them food and drink, and he even said that His Royal Highness is a glutton.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince often feels that he 'hurts his self-esteem', next time - keep going!

"By the way, I recently collected a lot of flowers, and I'll ask someone to give them to you together." Jia Lang recently bought a lot of roses for Tanchun, and saw many beautiful flowers. His hands were itchy, so he bought them too. Not a lot.

But this kind of item can only be available if the royal family has it.

"Yo, that's great, it's the time to appreciate flowers recently." Yuan Heng knew that the things Jia Lang sent were not bad.

He was also quite curious about where the Treasure Pavilion collected so many rare items, until he participated in the year-end summary of Jialang's shop.

Year-end summary, Yuan Heng is quite strange.

However, when he heard Jia Lang say that he would reward those shopkeepers and servants with 3000 taels of New Year's gift money, his surprise turned into astonishment.

Yuan Heng was a little confused when he heard that Jia Lang gave the craftsmen a variety of welfare systems and bonuses.

He is not a fool, if he is a craftsman, he will rush to this 'patent system' and 'pension system', and he is willing to devote himself to Jia Lang until he dies.

After a few more discussions with Yuan Heng, Jia Lang returned to Jia's residence.

Today is the third day of March, Tanchun's tenth birthday.Early in the morning, Zhenpin Pavilion piled all those delicate and colorful roses inside the gate of Tanchun Courtyard.

Originally, the three of them lived in the same yard, but now that Yingchun is not here, her house was given to Shi Xiangyun.Shi Xiangyun is also here today, such a lively scene doesn't make her look authentic.

Wang Xifeng was ordering people to arrange the roses neatly one by one, the precious ones were not allowed to be held by the mother-in-law, and all the maids were asked to carry them inside.

Inside and outside the house, inside and outside the courtyard, the walls and the feet of the house are like a house made of roses.

For a while, the fragrance of flowers overflowed, as if you were in a fairyland of roses.

Tanchun was dragged out by his sisters early on. He first went to try on new clothes and hairstyles, and drank a bowl of snow rice wine to make purple rice balls, full of saliva.

Just like that, it was almost noon.

The old lady, the eldest wife, and the second wife were all watching the play, and when the other sisters came out around Tanchun, Zhenzhen sighed again.

Dressed in a cloud brocade dress with roses in full bloom with red embroidery on a white background and yellow silk strokes, Qingfeng's sleeves are folded into ruffles, with thin pearl belts on both ends, fastened with red tassels and silk threads, making her look more girlish and delicate exquisite.

The pink and white dress with hundreds of folds is opened wide, with a pleat and a pendant, long light blue feathers hanging down, countless green and graceful.

The flowing clouds are in a bun, and the hairpin ornaments are all symmetrical.Two hollow golden steps, with peacock feathers and tails inlaid with green dots, sway in the halo with the steps, and they are already shining with each step.

There are two gold hairpins with tassels on the forehead, and the hanging silver threads are entangled with broken diamonds, with a shimmering light floating, the light seems to burn people's eyes.

A red hibiscus flower the size of a palm is placed in the middle of the bun, and a pearl the size of a longan is dotted in the center of the flower.

The lake-colored branch pattern ribbon and the hair form two braids, one left and one right falling on the chest.The rest of the hair is tied behind the waist with a golden colored silk rope, and a demon red rose is pinned on it.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw Tanchun appearing on the stage, just like they did when they celebrated Chunchun's tenth birthday.

When Baoyu saw such a beautiful sister Tanchun, she was overjoyed and greeted her.

Jia Lang coughed twice and stood in front of the ancestor. All the grandchildren got up and gave a big gift to the ancestor.

The ancestors love to be lively the most, seeing their descendants thriving and filial, they are so happy that they can't close their mouths.

Shouting again and again, let Tanchun sit beside her to show her honor.

Jia Lang asked the opera singers to withdraw, and called in the entertainers who specialize in laughing.These three or five people 'laughed and scolded, moved their hands and feet' from time to time on the stage, laughing so much that everyone's stomachs were knotted.

Tanchun, whose flowers were trembling wildly, was even more charming and unparalleled, even the little girl next to her couldn't help but peek at her.

After the two plays, there was a report from the kitchen that the meal was ready, and Jia Lang and Tanchun helped the old lady move to a side hall for dinner.

When everyone heard about the meal, they looked forward to it.During the Spring Festival birthday banquet, Jia Lang's birthday banquet was also different.I don't know what's new this year. If it's really unusual, it's a good thing to say it.

After everyone sat down, Jia Lang patted twice, and the maids filed in, and only then did the dishes begin.

The colorful petals on the head dish form a large hibiscus flower.

"These are all rose petals plus chicken, minced fish, snow rice, etc., and they are ground into powder and put in the petal mold, and finally steamed."

Today, everyone sat down, so Yuanyang took food for the old lady.

The mandarin duck saw the realistic petals and didn't dare to use force. When it was lightly pinched, it felt like meatballs.

"It's as elastic as a meatball? But it's not tough. I can bite my old bone." The old lady was really surprised.

"This plate is not a rare dish. There are five kinds of apples, pears, tomatoes, bananas, and oranges. They are made into steamed cakes together or with flour."

"This plate is made of winter melon, and inside is black-feathered black-bone chicken, which is a species in the extreme south. We don't have it here."

"This plate..."

Jia Lang introduced more than a dozen sets in a row, which really opened their eyes.

Finally arrived at the final appetizer - crystal lantern fish.

A mountain of ice is formed, and extremely thin, almost transparent fillets of fish are attached to it.

If you eat frozen things in this cold spring, don't you want to freeze people to death.

Jia Lang saw that everyone stood up in confusion, and Qing Chan handed over a lit wooden chopstick.

Everyone saw that Jia Lang put the fire chopsticks directly on the top of the iceberg and brushed - the whole volcano was actually ignited, with a faint blue flame.

Just when everyone was about to scream, the flames disappeared again, and an extremely fragrant smell rushed towards them in an instant.

"It's really strange!" Jia Baoyu was the first to speak out, and only then did he call back the gods of the crowd.

"Grandfather, taste it, freshly cooked fish is extremely fresh." Jia Lang personally picked up a piece of fish for the old lady.

It melts in the mouth and is wonderful.

The ancestors nodded again and again, it was indeed delicious.

Seeing that the ancestors had eaten, everyone cheered up this time, and the voices of admiration were endless.

Finished meal.

The ancestors knew that these children, they were here, and they couldn't let go.

Just let their children play by themselves, and other people don't bother them.

After thanking them, they all went to Tanchun's residence. Everyone wanted to know if Tanchun's residence had been buried by roses.
