Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　Seeing that Jia Zhen had arrived, a little girl had already entered to report the letter.When Jia Zhen arrived at Mother Jia's room, it was crowded, and the whole family arrived.Mother Jia sat on the upper kang, with Jia Baoyu on one side and a very delicate looking little girl on the other. She must be Lin Daiyu, right?The real one has two curved eyebrows that seem to be frowning rather than frowning, and a pair of eyes that seem to be happy but not happy.The sorrow of the ecological life, the disease of the whole body.Tears shone a little, and sighed slightly.When it is quiet, it is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and when it is in action, it is like a weak willow supporting the wind.The heart is more dry and one hole is more, and the disease is like Xizi winning three points.Jia Zhen didn't look much.Jia Mu started with Jia She, Jia Zheng and his wife.Li Wan, Wang Xifeng, two sisters-in-law, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun three sisters were still sitting below.Yuanyang, Ping'er, Xiren and other maids of all sizes were lined up in the circle, which made Jia Zhen feel dazzled.

　　Jia Zhen kowtowed to Mother Jia in a proper manner, and then greeted Jia She and Jia Zheng and his wife. Jia She's eyes were cold and unkind, and she didn't look at him directly. Jia Zheng stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Your sister is entrusting someone in the palace. The news came out that the emperor meant to support the family. Ding Ning also warned you that you have been sent by the emperor, you must be conscientious and work hard, and you must not do anything in the past, so that you can live up to the emperor's kindness and the people below. !" Jia Zhen hurriedly bowed in response.At this time, Jia She put down the tea cup and snorted coldly, "Everything has to be personal, you have a serious deacon, but Nancheng is the most difficult to control, you mustn't just make a fool of yourself, then it will be small to lose your own face. The reputation of Jia's house is greatly damaged."

　　Jia She spoke very rudely, Jia Zhen did not change his face, and cupped his hands: "What the eldest master taught is that nephew will be diligent in handling errands in the future, and no more nonsense."

　　Seeing that Jia Zhen was still respectful and didn't quarrel with Jia She, Mother Jia was very happy, and she couldn't help but say, "I don't care about you, your uncles teach you the truth, and you can't ignore it!" She paused. He said again: "Although there are Spykers in a family like us, the blessings of our ancestors will eventually come to an end. My wife is very pleased that you can make progress. Besides, you are taking the road of military career. Your grandfather was in charge of the Beijing camp. It’s not even a decade or two away, and the disciples and children may be able to rely on them. In short, do it well! Your grandfather should be relieved to see that you are promising!”

　　Mother Jia sighed, now there are more people and more affairs in the mansion, the masters and servants are up and down, there are many people who are rich and honorable, and there is no one who plans and draws.She looked at her two sons, and they didn't care. The family was all supported by Feng girl alone. It was really hard for her.

　　Jia Zhen stood in the middle and said hello to the sisters.Mother Jia took Daiyu's hand and introduced to Jia Zhen, "This is your aunt's daughter, her nickname is Daiyu. You haven't seen her since she picked it up from the south, right?" Jia Zhen saw that Daiyu was shy and shy Cowardly, although she is young, her model style is not comparable to her own sisters.While sighing, Daiyu saluted Jia Zhenyingying: "I've met Brother Zhen!" Jia Zhen laughed and said, "Hello, sister Lin! It's the first time I met, because I didn't bring a gift with my brother. When I get home, I'll let Xichun give it to me. You! Just don't dislike it!" Before Daiyu spoke, Baoyu said on the side, "Brother Zhen, ordinary things can't get into Sister Lin's eyes."

　　Jia Zhen was a little distressed, "Although I don't read, I have read some poems when I was young. I remember that there are two good ones. I will read them out and send them here. It's useless to put them in my house anyway." Daiyu is very reserved. Thank you.At this time, Xiao Xichun jumped up and took Jia Zhen's arm, and called out sweetly, "Brother!" Jia Zhen subconsciously took out the purse and threw it to Xichun, "That's all, not much! "Xichun took the purse that suddenly flew over and shouted angrily, "Brother! What are you doing?"

　　Jia Zhen slapped her head and realized: "It's too bad, I thought you were going to ask me for money again! Please return the money bag to me!"

　　Xichun hurriedly grabbed the money bag and put it behind her, and made a face at Jia Zhen, "You gave it to me yourself!" She was just talking, but Wang Xifeng snatched it away without thinking. Wang Xifeng took the money bag and went to the scene. In the middle, he smiled at Jia's mother and the others: "Old lady, today is a festive day. With Brother Zhen's money as the base, let's have a good fight, how about it?" Jia's mother smiled and said, "Now that he has an official position, yes It's time to make a big fuss, this matter is left to you, today is different from the past, don't save him money!"

　　So everyone laughed.

　　Jia Zhen sent someone to call You Shi and others over to have a banquet together.

Chapter [-] Qingwen is not called Qingwen

　　Not to mention how lively it was in the Rong Mansion, Jia Zhen had a drink with a bunch of men.It's just that Jia She was there, and his face was cold from beginning to end, which made a table of people really awkward.Disappeared early.

　　Jia Zhen came out of the ceremonial door in Rongxi Hall, went around the hall, and turned to the outside of Jia's mother's yard. Before she reached the Chuihuamen, she saw a little girl in red clothes rushing over from Qihezhai recklessly.Accidentally, he bumped into Jia Zhen.Jia Zhen drank alcohol and was hit so hard that she almost fell.He raised his hand and was about to fight, but saw that this girl was not very old, only about ten years old, she looked familiar, and there was a faint shadow of Daiyu.When Jia Zhen moved in her heart, she put down her hand and asked, "What's your name? Why are you running around here?"

　　Seeing that Jia Zhen looked like a master, the girl turned pale with fright, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Please forgive me. The maid is called Xiaoyue, not the maid of the house. Our grandma asked the maid to wait here. Come on, I'll ask the maid to go to the front yard in a while. I was walking in a hurry just now, and I bumped into the master without looking at the road."

　　Jia Zhen asked, "Who is your great grandma?"

　　Xiaoyue raised her head and said, "It's the eldest grandma of the Lai family..."

　　"Lai everyone?" Jia Zhen didn't have the slightest sympathy for the Lai family, and laughed: "A servant who is also worthy of being a grandma?"

　　Xiaoyue lowered her head, she couldn't say anything, she was still a servant of a servant!

　　When Jia Zhen saw that this girl looked so fresh and fresh, and belonged to the Lai family, she was a little concerned.He pretended to ask casually, "How old are you? Where are you from?"

　　Xiaoyue still lowered her head and replied, "I'm eleven years old! Originally my home was in the south. Because of the disaster, my parents brought me here to seek refuge with my aunt. Unexpectedly, they all died on the way. Good, bought me, I can live to this day."

　　I didn't expect this girl to have such a tragic life, but she said a few words calmly, as if she was talking about another person.

　　Now Jia Zhen can be sure that this Xiaoyue is the future Qingwen.And it is very likely that it will be given to Jia's mother by the Lai family, and then arranged to Jia Baoyu without any accident.Jia Zhen somewhat lamented her tragic fate in the future, but he had no choice but to snatch her back, right?Do you still need the face of Ning Guofu?Youdao is a servant of a servant, but not his own servant, let alone a servant of the Rongguo Mansion?

　　But Jia Zhen had no choice but to wave her away.

　　It's just that at this time Lai everyone's and Lai's second family just turned out and saw this scene.The Lai's family was very resentful to Jia Zhen, so he casually saluted and said sarcastically, "Oh, isn't this the uncle from the East House? Why do you like our girl?"

　　Lai everyone is not so unscrupulous and well-mannered as her sister-in-law, Jia Zhen is not easy to get angry, so she has to accept her salute.Lai everyone smiled and said, "Uncle Zhen, don't listen to her nonsense." After saying that, he was about to pull Lai Er's family away.

　　But Lai's family obviously has deep grievances against Jia Zhen, why are they willing to let it go?So she sneered: "It's no wonder that we are so careless as servants, Mr. Zhen, you have a preference for this aspect. The two aunts in your family are not much older than Xiaoyue. Now I see her looking better than others. Slightly better, it’s possible to let go.”

　　Lai Erjia's guns and sticks scolded.Lai everyone's face turned cold, and quickly scolded: "You are blinded by lard! You can't stop talking! Master's business is also something we servants can talk about? If it weren't for the master's kindness, I would reward you in this mansion. If you eat a bowl of rice, no one will pity you even if you starve to death on the street! Hurry up, hurry up, the old lady is still waiting for a reply!"

　　Lai's family is also a scumbag, and I regret it when I say it.She didn't dare to refute, and just followed Lai's lead.Seeing that there is a hanging flower door in front of him, as long as he enters the old lady's yard, no matter how angry he is, Jia Zhen can only hold it back.When she spreads out what she said today, his Jia Zhen's reputation will be ruined, and it will be able to relieve her grievances to some extent.Thinking of this episode, she looked smug, and if there were still people around, she would have laughed out loud.

　　Jia Zhen was worried that there was no way to attack them, and when she winked, Laishun and Wang Jian immediately rushed out from the side and blocked in front of the hanging flower door.That Wang Jian's vicious appearance shocked the two of them.Lai's family, in particular, panicked: "You... what are you doing?" Lai's family was still calm, and shouted to Wang Jian, "This is Rongguo Mansion, not your Ningguo Mansion!"

　　Wang Jian sneered and didn't speak, but Lai Shun cut in his hand and said: "Your girl bumped into our master, if it's normal, it's fine. It's just that our master has another reputation, and it's not yours. You even take it. If the Rongguo Mansion talks about things, the servants in your mansion can arrange bad things about the master in front of you? Are there any rules?"

　　Jia Zhen didn't expect that Shun would be unforgiving when he opened his mouth. He happily watched the excitement and gave him a thumbs up.Laishun got Jia Zhen's encouragement, and his waist straightened a lot.

　　Lai everyone frowned and asked, "How are you going?"

　　Laishun rolled his eyes, pointed at Xiaoyue and said, "Since you said that our grandfather has a crush on that girl, you can't talk about it, just leave her! How much money is paid to you!"

　　Hey!Laishun this guy won my heart!Jia Zhen almost laughed.Laishun saw that Jia Zhen didn't scold him, knowing that he had weighed his heart, he became more and more arrogant.

　　Lai everyone is also a prominent figure in the Rongguo Mansion on weekdays, and the old ladies and wives rarely reprimanded her mother-in-law Lai.He is just a long follower, what is it?How dare you blame me?

　　Lai everyone gradually became annoyed, did not talk to Laishun, turned his head to Jia Zhen and said, "If you really like this girl, it would be her luck, but she is the old lady's fancy, and today I will send her to her. If you go to the old lady and listen to it, I really don’t dare to pass it on to Uncle Jane. If you ask the old lady for it, the old lady will not disagree.”

　　Jia Zhen's expression suffocated, and she said with a smile: "I was scolded just now for wanting to run, but now I have something to do to the old lady. It really can make the master look good." Lai everyone's face was unpleasant, and Lai's second family flinched. Nothing could be said, and the scene was so stalemate.

　　"Hey, what are you doing blocking the door?" A voice came from the door.Wang Jian and Laishun hurriedly stepped aside.It turned out that the mandarin duck in front of the old lady came out. She saw Lai Jia's and Lai Erjia's and smiled: "Two Lai sisters, the old lady was talking about you just now! I was sent to look for you, but I didn't expect to be here. It's a relief to meet you!"

　　When Lai Erjia saw the mandarin duck, he immediately came to life, walked up three or two steps, grabbed the mandarin duck's jacket and cried, "O mandarin duck! You're here! You give the critique, even the old lady praises Xiaoyue. She is smart and beautiful, and I love her very much. We originally planned to let her listen to the old lady, but I don't want to let Uncle Jane see it today, and we have to take her back to be his side. What can we do?"

　　Jia Zhen was amused by her random fabrications that turned black and white.

　　Yuanyang looked at Xiaoyue, who had been standing by the side and did not speak, and then at Jia Zhen, her eyes wandering.

　　Jia Zhen was stunned: "You don't really believe her nonsense, do you? Hey!"

　　In fact, Yuanyang was very hesitant in his heart. Uncle Zhen was lustful, and the younger he was, the more he liked it. It was no secret.Besides, Xiaoyue was born really well, what Mrs. Lai said was not impossible.But seeing Uncle Jane's appearance is not what he imagined.

　　Yuanyang pondered for a while, then smiled: "I can't figure out this lawsuit! Simply go to see the old lady with me!"

　　Lai Erjia's face was overjoyed, and he pulled Xiaoyue and hurried in.Lai everyone also followed and muttered a few words in a low voice.Jia Zhen knew that the two must have nothing good to say, and her face became ugly.

　　"Mandarin ducks! You are really hurting me!" After that, he had no choice but to follow behind.

　　Sure enough, before Jia Zhen entered Jia's mother's room, she heard Jia's mother's angry scolding: "Call me that shameless nasty seed!"

　　Jia Zhen looked at the mandarin ducks with a hopeless expression, and whispered, "I'm really wronged!" He took a deep breath and then went in.If he had thought that it would be like this before, Jia Zhen would never have gotten to this point just for a moment of pity.

　　He took a deep breath and walked in carefully. The female family members of the two palaces were all there. There were contempt, disdain, and silence in their eyes. Jia Zhen pretended not to care.He looked over to the women of Ningfu, and there was only worry and unbearableness in their eyes.Xiao Xichun even whispered, "Brother..."

　　Jia Zhen smiled at them and knelt down in the hall, "Grandson has seen the old lady."

　　The old lady snorted coldly, "My old wife can't bear your courtesy."

　　Jia Zhen was shocked, took a few steps forward and said, "Old lady, you broke the grandson. If the grandson did something wrong, you will punish him."

　　Seeing Jia Zhen kneeling on the ground, the old lady thought that he was a master after all, and she didn't want to be too humiliating in front of the whole family, so she suppressed her anger and accused: "You are from that mansion, even if you take your mansion Turning it over, it was not my old wife's turn to make irresponsible remarks. But today you drank a few taels of yellow soup, and the rules became more and more unruly. Such a little girl, not to mention that I like her well, I want to stay in front of her and wait on her. , how old is she? You can do it! I'm ashamed of your father!"

　　Jia Zhen didn't know what Lai's family said in front of the old lady, but it was definitely not a good thing.He kowtowed: "Old lady, you really blame me!"

　　The old lady sneered: "Who in the manor doesn't know that your brother Zhen has such a liking? How can you be wronged?"

　　Mrs. Xing also helped, "Yes, Brother Zhen, you have to correct your problems, but you can't see that beautiful girl and take it to your own room, and the girls in the house are panicking. What kind of system?"

　　Mrs. Wang did not fall into the trap and thought about it: "It is common for men outside to steal fish, but now that you have a deacon, you should serve the country wholeheartedly and serve the emperor conscientiously. You can't do it as usual. Nonsense. Besides, this girl is only ten years old, how can she withstand your torture? It's someone the old lady likes, but you really did something wrong. "

　　Jia Zhen thanked Mrs. Wang again, and then said: "The old lady, the eldest lady and the wife said yes. It's just that I was too indulgent before, and even had a bad reputation." Everyone thought that Jia Zhen was about to admit her mistake, and her eyes became getting worse.

　　You Shi and others also felt ashamed and bowed their heads in shame.

　　"But this time the old lady is really blaming her grandson." Jia Zhen looked up at the old lady and pointed at the Lai Erjia next to her: "It's all she who reversed right and wrong, when did I say that I liked that? Girl? When did I say that I would admit her to the palace? The truth is not like that at all!"

　　The old lady looked at the panic-stricken Lai Erjia, and the Lai Erjia hurriedly knelt down and insisted: "Old lady, what the servant said is true! If Sister Yuanyang hadn't come over in time, Xiaoyue would have been It was taken away by Uncle Zhen's entourage a long time ago!"

　　The old lady's eyes flickered, and she said to Jia Zhen, "what's going on?"

　　Jia Zhen replied: "The grandson had a drink with the eldest master and the second master in the main hall, thinking of greeting the old lady. After passing through the hall, this girl came over like a headless fly. I saw her also unintentionally. , just say a few words, forget it. This is a trivial matter. I don't want this Lai Erjia to come, so I said with a gun and a stick that I liked this girl and wanted to take her back to the mansion. Old lady, The grandson is also in charge of the family, I didn't have this intention at all, no matter how good Xiaoyue grows, I don't necessarily have to marry her, not to mention she is so young."

　　Having said that, everyone looked at Second Sister You and Third Sister You, their faces flushed with shame and their heads lowered.

　　Mother Jia pondered for a while, but Lai Erjia saw that the wind was not going right, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Old lady, what this servant is telling the truth! Laishun who is in front of Mr. Zhen also said that he would buy it!"

　　Mother Jia frowned and asked Yuanyang to beat her legs.Yuanyang whispered a few words, but Mother Jia did not respond.Everyone whispered below, and the wind direction was a little wrong.

　　Jia Zhen also noticed it, and coughed lightly: "Old lady, this matter is nothing to me, there is a saying that it doesn't itch if there are too many lice, and I don't care about this reputation. But in the end, it's not good for this girl Xiaoyue, There are people who are talking nonsense, maybe they say something about her. Therefore, I simply asked her to come to our side. In this way, I did the bad guy, but it does not hinder the reputation of this girl. "

　　After listening to Jia Zhen's words, Xiaoyue looked up at him quietly, and then lowered her head quickly.

　　Seeing it, Mother Jia pointed at Xiaoyue and said, "Girl, you are a good boy. When you come to me, no one will embarrass you. If you have any grievances, just tell me, and I will make the decision for you!"

　　Seeing Mother Jia's kind eyes and kind eyes, Xiaoyue saw Lai's family wink at her, she gritted her teeth and bowed her head, "Back to the old lady's words, it's just like what Uncle Zhen said."

　　"Wow!" When the truth came out, Lai Erjia's face was ashen.

　　Mother Jia glanced at her in disgust and asked Xiaoyue, "Tell me, did Uncle Zhen say that he likes you and wants to take you to that mansion?"

　　Xiaoyue shook her head, lowered her head and said, "Uncle Zhen didn't, but a little brother in front of him said he wanted to buy me back."

　　At this time, Wang Xifeng came up and said with a smile: "Old lady, this was originally a misunderstanding, I said that Brother Zhen is no longer hungry, and even the teenage girl will not be spared. His own aunt still makes But come! Adding another one, wouldn't it kill him?"

　　Everyone laughed.Mother Jia's face turned pale, and she scolded with a smile, "Since you know it, why didn't you tell me?"

　　Wang Xifeng shouted and said: "Old lady, I can't be sure about that time! You also know that Brother Zhen has always had this problem, what if he really does it shamelessly? Didn't I just offend you? At that time, I have nowhere to sue!"

　　Then Mother Jia laughed and said, "You are used to meeting the wind."

　　Jia Zhen also took the opportunity to admit her mistake and said, "Old lady, this is all because of grandson's usual indiscretion, and it's no wonder the eldest sister is suspicious."

　　Mother Jia nodded and said, "It's good to know that it's wrong!" After speaking, she looked at Lai Er's family with cold eyes.

　　Lai's family hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Chapter Thirty-Ninth Why Let It Be to You

　　Wang Xifeng stepped forward and reprimanded the Lai Erjia: "You made a mistake in the East Mansion. The old lady has been serving your mother-in-law for many years, so she was especially kind to keep you here. Who would have thought that you would not change your character and gossip..." She raised her eyes and looked at Mother Jia, and seeing that she had no intention of punishing her, she continued, "Pull it down, forty heavy responsibility!"

　　This kind of treatment made Jia's mother very satisfied. She scolded: "If it wasn't for your widow's unemployment, she would have been driven out!" During the conversation, a servant girl came in and pulled Lai Er's family away.Lai everyone felt shameless and took the opportunity to leave, leaving Xiaoyue to kneel there alone at a loss.

　　Jia Zhen pouted, it doesn't matter whether she is satisfied or not.He glanced at Xiaoyue and said to Jia's mother: "Old lady, this girl Xiaoyue can't be sent back, or her life will be in danger."

　　Mother Jia looked at Xiaoyue. She originally saw that she was smart and cute, so she wanted to stay in front of her for some training, but now, she felt a little frivolous between her features and she didn't want to keep her any longer. So as not to cause trouble later.

　　Seeing that Mother Jia didn't speak, Wang Xifeng guessed what she was thinking, she stepped forward and pulled Xiaoyue up, looked up and down, and said with a smile, "No wonder Brother Zhen cares about you so much, she looks really beautiful, she will definitely be a beauty when she grows up. According to me Look, why don't the old lady give her a reward to Brother Zhen, whether he wants to keep her as a girl or raise her to be an aunt first, then you can leave him alone. How about it?"

　　Mother Jia nodded and smiled and said, "That's it!" She instructed Jia Zhen again, "This girl has a hard life, you can't treat her badly!"

　　In fact, Mother Jia's original intention was to let Jia Zhen settle her in a good way, but hearing this in the ears of others made him allow him to take a concubine.So Xiaoyue hasn't entered Jia Zhen's door yet, her identity is different, and others look at her differently.

　　You Shi looked at Xiaoyue with a sad face, but this look disappeared in a flash, she immediately walked over and brought Xiaoyue to her side, "Good boy, follow me in the future!" She turned and asked Keqing: "Go back and send someone to take back Xiaoyue's deed." Ke Qing responded, and went to Lai everyone without mentioning it.

　　Jia Zhen's women glanced at Xiaoyue and then at Jia Zhen.A rare red cloud appeared on Jia Zhen's face. He really had no idea of ​​marrying Xiaoyue as a concubine in the future. At that time, he thought about the age of the You sisters wrongly, so that the two loli of his family are still hugging and hugging. Dare to start, let alone Xiaoyue, who is younger than them?It's not that he is hypocritical, he really can't do such a beastly thing.Now my two concubines and two alternate concubines are not yet [-] years old. If they were to be placed in future generations, it would be evil to think about it like this!He repeatedly told himself to be a gentleman!

　　Then keep it at home and talk about it later! "Ok, deal!"

　　Third Sister You rolled her eyes, also smiled and stepped forward to pull Xiaoyue, and said to Jia Zhen, "Brother-in-law, which yard do you plan to arrange for Xiaoyue's sister?"

　　Jia Zhen was immediately annoyed, "What kind of yard is she going to arrange for a girl?!"

　　The third sister seemed to be startled, patted her chest and whispered, "Oh, she's still a girl!" But with a hopeful expression, it was clearly not what she meant.

　　All the girls laughed.Mother Jia and Madam Wang couldn't bear to see the third sister so presumptuous, and both frowned.

　　At this time, Xiaoyue obediently kowtowed to Jia Zhen and You Shi.

　　Jia Zhen seemed to put down a stone in her heart, and said casually, "Since you have entered our house, change your name, and you will be called Qingwen in the future!"
