The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Seeing that the New Year's Eve is approaching, the capital is bustling and bustling, and there are more contacts between various prefectures.Because Yaoer is older, he is often invited by friends to get together, and suddenly he is much busy.Jia Cong and Jia Huan, two snacks, followed when they had time, and met some people by the way, and gradually became acquainted with many up-and-coming scholars, and also recognized a few oil bottles led by other brothers and brothers. Also busier than usual.Only Baoyu seldom goes out and stays with Jia Mu every day.

They occasionally listened to gossip outside. Recently, the fans of Liu Aiyun and Jiang Yuhan on the stage have been fighting every time. These days, they have played two or three times. The idlers in Beijing are talking about it every day, and Jia Cong can't help pinching his stomach. laugh.

That day when Jia Cong came back to the mansion, 123 Yanqing came to him and said, "Miss Shi is here."

Jia Cong was taken aback: "Didn't she go to other provinces with Marquis Baoling?" Probably Jia's mother had lost power in the past few years.

123 said romantically: "I just inquired in the ancestral courtyard. It seems that her old man wrote a letter to Master Shihou, asking him to send him back."

Jia Cong frowned.He didn't feel sorry for Shi Xiangyun's monthly money of two taels of silver, but since Jia's mother never kept her that day, he didn't know if there was some other meaning in asking someone to send her here now.Could it be that seeing that Lin Daiyu is out of action, she is ready to change her?Baoyu is also poor.Once I thought about it, it had nothing to do with him anyway, so I didn't bother to care about it.The next day, he went to Jia Mu's house to greet her, but saw Shi Xiangyun was there.Because Jia Cong had something to go out, he hurriedly put on a smiling face to say hello and left.

Two days later, Jia's mother put on a big wine show, and the women's families from various prefectures invited a large number of them, which was very lively.Jia Cong and Jia Huan ran away early on the sign of going out to play. Jia Lian naturally went to visit his colleagues, but Baoyu stayed alone with Jia Mu.However, the two of them returned to Lixiangyuan on this day, and 123 Romance greeted them again: "The two masters are back!

Jia Huan said with a smile: "Sister 123 Lianqing's face is bursting with laughter, and her voice is trembling. Something interesting must have happened today."

123 Romance really smiled with the flowers of gossip all over his face: "Master Huan guessed half of it, but the excitement hasn't come out yet, I'm afraid I have to wait a few more days. Miss Xue, Miss Smith and a few others The girl who came to visit the house and the four girls from our family wrote poems around the plum blossoms in their yard. Just then I got interested, and suddenly it snowed. Fortunately, all the girls came with snow coats, The four girls in our family also ordered people to take out the black cloud leopard cloaks that were newly acquired at the beginning of the month and put them on. For a while, the whole yard said it was beautiful, and Xiujute came to ask me to take a look, which dazzled our eyes. Shi Da The girl watched and said envious words for a long time, seeing that the second girl wanted to pity her, she couldn't guarantee that the next sentence would be "let Conger get one for you", but Miss Xue said, if you like it, I will change it for you tomorrow. You look for the piece. Miss Shi's eyes were red immediately, and she tried to say how good Miss Xue is. Our fourth girl, ouch, you are welcome!" She said, she gave her thumbs up, "I will say it immediately , the first two items here are given by the palace, and the two items are my younger brother who went out to lie—”

Jia Huan immediately fell down on the kang and laughed loudly. Because he couldn't laugh at first, he even threw off his boots and lay on his back and kicked his legs.

Jia Cong was embarrassed, and said embarrassingly: "The other day I said that Lai Pi Lai came here, was that just to make fun of her..."

123 couldn't hold back the romance, she lay on the case and laughed for a long time, and then said: "Miss Xue is really calm, and said with a smile, since she has two of the two, she is not the only one in the world. I'm afraid that there are other colors, so I don't know if I can find it if I go outside to find it. If you say that Miss Lin is tricky, she is three points more tricky than others. She said, Sister Bao is a knowledgeable person, and what she said is true. Reason. Well, there are two of each, and there must be a third, fourth, and fifth. Since there are many in the world, it is probably not difficult to find them. How about Sister Bao, who got them for Yun girl years ago? , she is naturally happier this year."

Hearing the sound of "dong dong dong", Jia Huan laughed so hard that he had no energy left, and rolled on the kang, kicking Jia Cong's bedpost vigorously.

Jia Cong couldn't stand anymore, and fell down on the edge of the kang, laughing with Jia Huan.The few people in the room pricked up their ears to listen to 123's romantic gossip, all staggered and couldn't move from laughing.

For half a day, Jia Huan pointed at Jia Cong while clutching his stomach, "A while ago you said that Mr. Xiao Gong was the king of pitfalls, but in my opinion, Sister Lin is the real king of pitfalls."

Jia Cong also groaned a few times, and said: "I read the account books before, so I happened to let him cheat, and I said it casually. What kind of cheat king is he! You are right, sister Lin is the cheat king. From now on, this foreigner I've been following her for the rest of my life!"

There was another burst of laughter in the room.

This matter was originally a joke, just laugh it off.Unexpectedly, Jia's mother was happy that day, so she kept Xue Baochai in the mansion for a longer time.Two days later, Lan Xiang came to report suddenly, saying that the girl named Ying'er next to Miss Xue's family had come.

Jia Cong was changing clothes at that moment.It turns out that this year's list of New Year's gifts to the Gao family in Chang'an, the letter to welcome the Spring Festival, and the small things of the girls were first sent by Jia Amnesty's horse on a fast horse. Come and rush to give these little ones years ago.Now their family's serious New Year's ceremony has not yet arrived, but this latecomer came first.Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian were not at home, so Yingchun ordered people to be brought to Lixiangyuan, and they were already waiting in the hall.Jia Cong had no feelings for Ying'er, so he casually ordered, "Go and ask what's the matter with 123, I don't have time to talk to her right now... I don't have time to talk to her."

123 Romance went out in response, came in for a while and couldn't stop laughing, and returned: "Ms. Xue sent her to ask the young master. The two black cloud leopard cloaks that the young master made for the third and fourth girls looked really good. Envious, but I don't know where I got it, and she asked Uncle Xue to get it too."

Jia Cong frowned and said: "It's inconvenient for me to tell her this, but it's not easy. And you remind her, she should ask me to ask me about such things."

123 Yanqing hurriedly smiled and went away, Jia Cong muttered "I don't know her well", and went to the hall to meet the Gao family.Jia Cong knew at the first sight of that man that he was not simple. He was the type that was rumored to be "thrown away in the crowd and couldn't be found". He was in his 40s and had extremely bright eyes.He hurriedly smiled and said to the person: "This is my aunt, isn't she?"

The man bowed and clasped his fists: "Little Ou Cheng was sent by the old matriarch to give New Year gifts to all young masters and girls."

Because the small hall of Lixiangyuan was usually a school, because the tables and chairs were folded behind and covered with big tents during the Chinese New Year, it was quite empty at the moment.Jia Cong asked him to sit on a chair beside him, and Ou Cheng waved his hand to evade. Jia Cong said: "I see that you are obviously a soldier in the army, and I only admire the soldiers who defend the country."

Ou Cheng's eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "Then my subordinates would rather obey orders than be respectful."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "General Ou, don't pretend, you can't even name a 'slave', who would believe that you are an ordinary housekeeper and slave."

Ou Cheng was startled, and suddenly laughed.Jia Cong shook his head triumphantly.

After laughing, the two sat down, Ou Cheng said: "Forget it, I don't want to be seen through by a child." Yin said, "In the early years I was a soldier next to the old general, and in recent years I have been promoted to some small officials."

Jia Cong was so frightened that he jumped off his chair immediately: "Say it early! Uncle Ou is good, my nephew is polite." He bowed to him.

Ou Cheng hurriedly supported him: "Why is the third master so polite!"

Jia Cong said: "You are my great-uncle's personal soldier, so aren't you just ordinary people like my fourth and sixth uncles? I don't know if you saved my great-uncle's life, but you must be a respectable person."

Ou Cheng nodded again and again: "What Ge Liu said that day is not bad, the third young general seems to be born with an understanding of the military spirit."

Only then did Jia Cong recall that in the early years when Ge Liu led people to Chang'an to ask for the tens of thousands of taels of silver deposited in the Gao family by the Rongguo Mansion, they recognized it around that time.Then he smiled and said, "Uncle Six always loves me, but I'm afraid that his words are biased and he will say something too good about me."

Ou Cheng thought he was humble even more, nodded with a smile, and couldn't help stretching out his hand to stroke his beard again, he didn't want him to cut off his beard because he wanted to pretend to be a servant, and felt nothing!Jia Cong laughed unabashedly, the little face he smiled was quite cute, and Ou Cheng himself laughed too.

Stop laughing, Jia Cong first asked: "How is my aunt?"

Ou Chengdao: "The old matriarch's body is very strong. Recently, I got a letter from the second girl of your mansion, and saw the poems and things made by several girls. I cried for several days."

Jia Cong hurriedly said: "It was intended to make her happy, but why did it make her cry. We didn't mean it!"

Ou Cheng smiled and said: "Of course the old lady was crying with joy. There is also the goose down pillow sent by the third young general, she likes it very much."

Jia Cong was taken aback: "Huh? It's on me? Sister Lin asked me to think for her."

Ou Chengdao: "Miss Lin, the old lady also likes it so much, and let our girl read her poems every day."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "Sister Lin is an immortal. To say something unflattering, my elder sisters are as intelligent as her. I always admire them very much." Then he asked the elders of the Gao family carefully.

Ou Guoguo really told him one by one.There are three generations of the Gao family, all the males are generals, Gao Li, the Jiedu envoy of Ping'an Prefecture, is the leader among them, and there are more than a dozen generals, big and small. Hearing Jia Cong's endless envy, he sighed: "It's a pity that my father is no longer in the barracks. Otherwise, I can still go to the border to kill a few games."

Ou Cheng smiled and said: "It's not fun to kill the enemy at the border. It's better for a young master like you to stay at home."

Jia Cong snorted and said, "Stop looking down on people! I can learn martial arts, and I have competed with many masters. Don't you believe that we have done two tricks?" Yin waved his little arm.

Seeing that it was interesting, Ou Cheng said: "That's all, then the general will accompany the third young general to make two moves. Don't cry when you lose."

Before he could finish his words, Jia Cong rushed over from the chair with an "Aww", Ou Cheng blocked him with two moves, but before he could speak, Jia Cong made another move.When he supported Jia Cong again, he said with a somber face, "Why did you do it before you agreed?"

Jia Cong said: "Since it's a fight, it's natural to do it when you say it. Could it be that you wait for the enemy to line up when you fight? How many brothers will die!"

Ou Cheng was overjoyed, and pressed his head hard: "What a boy! You have the style of the old country!"

Jia Cong yelled, but Ou Cheng was too strong, he couldn't resist, and let him turn his head for a long time.Ou Cheng really liked him this time, so he said: "Although the few moves you have learned are superficial, they are obviously ordinary green forest moves, and they are not bad for self-defense. It's not good to use them on the battlefield. The foundation is solid."

Jia Cong snorted and said, "Can you not be solid? I rely on my father to learn martial arts. If I don't learn well, even if I am right for my father, I will be sorry for myself. Uncle Ou, why don't you teach me?" Two tricks?"

Ou Cheng said: "I'm afraid I don't have much time for you."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "I heard from my second sister that my aunt's birthday is this year, and my brother has an errand so he can't ask for leave. My father is going to send me away. I'm going to Chang'an, you teach me!"

Ou Cheng was pleasantly surprised: "Are you here to celebrate the old matriarch's birthday?"

Jia Cong nodded vigorously: "Yeah. It's inconvenient for others to go. Although I'm younger, I'm always my father's real son, right?"

Ou Chengxi said: "The old lady must be happy." At this moment, he remembered that the list of gifts had not been taken out yet, so he quickly took it from his sleeve and showed it to Jia Cong.

Jia Cong saw that there were no precious things on the top, but medicinal materials, local products, and gadgets, and praised with a smile: "Whoever proposed this gift really has a heart."

Ou Cheng smiled and said, "You are not too thin."

Jia Cong snorted and said, "Boss, what's the fun of rushing to send some gold, silver and jewelry from Chang'an to Beijing? I'm afraid it's the serious annual gift that hasn't arrived yet."

So he ordered people to divide the things first, and then send them to the houses after returning to Jia Amnesty.

When Jia She went back to the mansion, Ou Cheng went there to meet him.Jia Cong personally sent him out of the gate of Lixiangyuan, stretched his waist and lay on the kang for half a day, and then let Hongxiu get up to eat.After taking a nap for a while, he said outside, "Master Xue is here."Jia Cong scolded: "There are so many things!" He had no choice but to come out with his eyelids open.

Seeing him, Xue Pan bowed and bowed again and again: "Good brother, brother, I have something to ask you, teach me quickly."

Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "What's the matter? You can't buy clothes for someone."

Xue Pan said: "That is one thing, what matters is another."

Jia Cong said: "Then let's just say that it doesn't matter, that's all."

Xue Pan smirked twice, and said: "My sister said that the cloaks worn by the girls in your family were very good, and she asked if I might find them for her. She said you got them, where did you get them?"

Jia Cong snorted, "I can't tell you."

Xue Pan grinned and said, "Good brother, tell me, I'll buy it."

Jia Cong glanced at him and said, "Have you asked on the street? Is there a place for sale?"

Xue Pan smiled a few times, lowered his eyes as a gesture of concern, and said slowly: "Brother Cong, I have a few words of advice for you today, you might as well listen to it. The Smith family is a family of two, and It’s the niece and grand-niece of your ancestors, why don’t you come and take care of her? Since she envies that, why don’t you get one for her.”

How could Xue Pan think of such words?If you think about it with your toes, you will know who forced him to recite it.Jia Cong looked up to the sky and sighed, and said: "Man, it's not terrible to be wrong, and it's common to want face. The terrible thing is that you don't want to admit your mistake." Yin said seriously, "I want to come to sister Xue to hear that the two clothes are my child. I got it, I was afraid it would be easy, so I just bluffed it out. Who knows that it is really a tribute from a foreign country, and it is not sold in ordinary shops. She is afraid that her face will not look good at that time, so she asked you to come looking for me , right?"

Xue Pan blinked: "A bit right."

Jia Cong said: "Brother Xue, that girl of yours really has a lot of trouble. My sister's favorite is "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" or "Nv Commandments" is my sister's business. It's a headache. I look for clothes for my sister. That's what I should do as a younger brother. Her historian is not nobody—even if no one has anything to do with me? If I look for clothes for her, what about sister Xing? She is so poor But did you say anything? Do all the relatives and sisters in the Outer Eight Roads count? How busy I am. I’m not like Brother Bao who just wants to be nice to her when he sees a girl."

Xue Pan said: "Naturally, other people have nothing to do with you. This Miss Shi seems to be only two years older than you. Listen to my sister, she is also very good."

Jia Cong was startled: "Huh? What did you say?"

Xue Pan was in a hurry now, and went around in circles for half a day, until Jia Cong picked up the teacup and said: "My sister heard from the mandarin duck girl in your old lady's room that your old lady has been looking at you, brother Cong, more and more recently. It's pleasing to the eye, and I specially called that Miss Shi to come back to Beijing."

"Pfft~~" Jia Cong took a sip of tea and sprayed it out. "Brother Xue! Why are you kidding me when it's Chinese New Year?!"
