The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return

Not to mention Jia Hu's vague words, the next day, it was time for Jia Hu to go to the banquet.

After punching in the morning, Jia Hu took a shower, her wet hair was draped over her shoulders, and the flower paper that was promoted yesterday was gently wiped, while Jia Hu read a book for a while.Meizi is looking for breakfast, and the jade inkstone that has always been used is ordered by the uncle to wait for marriage.

Speaking of Yuyan, it was her complaint to Mrs. Liu that offended Jia Hu.Originally, because of Jia Hu's secret, he was more careful about the things in the study. Although he didn't leave anything related to his previous life, he was afraid that he would reveal his trap somewhere.Since he got the manpower left by his grandfather, he has become more and more strict about the details of the people around him.

Don't talk about Yuyan and Meizi around him, even the eight second-class people are also innocent.Unexpectedly, Yu Yan had thoughts that shouldn't have arisen.If it was just admiration, Jia Hu pretended not to know, nine out of ten maids in the mansion wanted to climb into his bed, Jia Hu knew this very well.After all, whether she is the aunt of a promising uncle in the mansion, or she is randomly dragged to match the boy, it is clear at a glance which maids below will choose.

It's just that Jia Hu doesn't need someone who betrays the master around him.

When Jia Hu came back from her mother yesterday, she called Yu Yan.

"Master, do you have something to order?" Yuyan was a little worried.I just paid a monthly fine, could it be that the uncle is still angry?

Jia Hu took a sip of tea and asked, "I remember my father gave me two maids."

Yu Yan's heart trembled, she bit her lips and said, "Master, Huang Ying'er has been sent to Madam Tang. There is also a Lujiao, a servant who is arranged in the East Wing."

Huang Yinger, Lu Jiao, what are these names? Didn't his father directly send someone to Yangzhou to buy them?Jia Hu twitched the corner of her mouth, thinking.

In fact, he really didn't think wrong.When Jia Amnesty heard that Jia Hu was good at the south wind, he had a bad feeling in his heart and hurriedly asked people to buy Yangzhou skinny horses.I didn't use it when I bought it back, so I hurriedly sent it to Jia Hu, hoping that he would know the beauty of the woman, so that he would no longer only love Lan Yan.

Jia Hu said disgustedly: "They are all messy names. Lujiao, change your name to Luping, and treat her like a second-class person from now on."

Yuyan felt sad and happy in his heart.The uncle gave Luping a name, which means that she can stay, but she is only a second-class maid.But Luping was bestowed by the master after all, unlike them, in the future... Yuyan thought a lot, but the reality was only in the blink of an eye, she agreed, and because Luping was not allowed to enter the room, she kowtowed on her behalf Thank you master for giving me a name.

As soon as the topic changed, Jia Hu asked Yu Yan's age again.

Yu Yan said shyly: "My servant is seventeen. Meizi is the same age as my servant, only one month younger than her."

Jia Hu was stunned.Meizi kept blah, calling "Sister Yuyan" all day long, but she really didn't expect that she was the same age as Yuyan.Jia Hu looked at Yuyan inquiringly, she kept pressing Meizi's head, what did she mean by bringing it up now?

Jia Hu smiled, no matter what it means, it has nothing to do with him.

"A few days ago, shopkeeper Liu under me came to beg you on behalf of his eldest son. What do you think?"

Yuyan's lips bit down a mark.As a maid, her wealth and life are in the hands of her master, so what can she think?Yu Yan raised her head abruptly, and looked at Jia Hu with watery eyes no longer concealed.

Jia Hu looked into her eyes, and said slowly: "What I mean is, either marry into a common people's family like Chunyu Xiahe and the others before me, and I will pay the dowry; or I will be the daughter-in-law in charge. Then shopkeeper Liu is my hand." It's useful, his eldest son is also my favorite to take over his father's class, you won't suffer if you marry him."

Yuyan seemed unable to bear Jia Hu's ruthlessness, bowed her head and said, "Your servant obeys the master's decision."

Jia Hu's eyes lit up.The maids around him were all vice ladies, and it was just right for him to marry the son of the shopkeeper under him.It is not only a reward for the shopkeeper, but also the love of master and servant.Those shopkeepers, although they are slaves, can afford these vice ladies better than ordinary people.

"In the past few days, you hand over everything to Meizi and Huajian, so you can get married with peace of mind."

Meizi knew it, and was really happy for Yuyan, but seeing Yuyan's downcast appearance, she had to persuade her.Fortunately, Jia Hu was not used to someone keeping watch at night, so Meizi slept for two hours at night.Before dawn, the uncle yelled. At this moment, Meizi yawned quietly when the uncle was not paying attention while making arrangements for breakfast.

Jia Hu didn't wash her hair in the morning, but when she took a shower, it was moistened with water vapor, and it dried quickly under the service of Huajian.Then there was breakfast, a bowl of custard, a basket of soup dumplings, some pork and cabbage buns, and a few side dishes, and a big bowl of porridge, and half an hour passed.

They made an appointment for lunch, and it was still early, so Jia Hu went to the study.Thinking of next year's spring, Jia Hu hesitated.Although the mother was not happy that her daughter-in-law was not chosen by herself, she also said that the marriage should be settled after Jia Huchun.

Jia Hu didn't want to delay those girls. He is purely gay, has no feelings for women, and is irresponsible when he marries someone. Doesn't this make her a widow?If he wants to concentrate on his wife and children, but he is not reconciled, he still prefers men.

Jia Hu is considering the possibility of not going to the Chunwei.

After a while, the crane came back to report that the carriage sent by Prince Jing's son was already waiting outside the side door of the uncle's mansion.Jia Hu took advantage of the situation and stopped thinking about it. There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. Maybe there will be a turning point somewhere?

Seeing Jia Hu coming, a boy hurriedly said: "Young Master Jia, my master is in the carriage in front." Shui Rong heard the sound in the carriage in front and stretched out his body to signal to him, Jia Hu nodded slightly, and went up.

Zhuangyuan Building is the largest restaurant in the capital, and the owner is someone who knows how to do business. Every year in the competition, those talented and poor can live here for free.Of course, this is not unconditional. After they are named on the gold list, the banquet of the same year must be held in the Zhuangyuan Building.

Even so, every three years, many poor scholars choose to live here, even those who come from rich families who are not short of money, also prefer to rent a small building here.Scholars flock to it, even princes and nobles, come here to drink tea from time to time, and watch the literary meetings held by many students here.And these dignitaries have attracted scholars who intend to take refuge in them to come here to meet friends through literature.

There is nothing wrong with businessmen chasing profits.However, many people in the capital say that the owner of the Zhuangyuan Building only sees the immediate profit. Don't you know that a favor in a timely manner is worth more than the money spent on a banquet.

Today, the place where the disciples of the four kings and eight princes invite Jia Hu to drink is in the Zhuangyuan Building.To say that this group of dudes really doesn't match the temperament of this building.They only heard about Jia Hu's reputation, so they decided to come here to make a good fortune.

The carriage stopped in front of the Zhuangyuan Building, and he said to Jia Hu with a smile on his face, "Brother Jia, this is the Zhuangyuan Building."

Led by Shui Rong, Jia Hu walked through the Yuyuelongmen on the second floor and came to the Six Arts of Gentleman.Seeing Jia Hu's eyes looking at the word "Shoot" cut out on the door, Shui Rong couldn't help but smile, and said, "We honorable disciples are just on the sidelines with horseback riding and archery."

Jia Hu heard the words and said, "Brother Shui, why should you be humble. I heard that Brother Shui is both civil and military, and he is proficient in bow and horse. The Holy Majesty also praised him."

Shui Rong was scratched to the itch, and couldn't hide the smugness on his face, so he said calmly, "Brother Jia got the top case in Jinling last year, which is beyond my reach."

Just as he was talking, the people at the door probably heard a young man's voice: "But the prince of Beijing is here?"

Shui Rong walked in, and the people inside said: "You are here, those who come late will have to punish themselves with three cups!" "Exactly!"

Shui Rong took advantage of the opportunity to push Jia Hu forward: "Don't rush to boo, see who I brought?"

There was a sudden silence in the room.

Jia Hu took the opportunity to look around, a few young men were drinking and punching, and a few older ones were sitting upright, as if they were waiting for someone.Seeing Jia Hu coming in, he stood up alone, and said with a smile, "Looking at him, he must be the grandson of Duke Rong?" The room was boiling for a while.

Shui Rong whispered in his ear, "This is Niu Xiujie, the great-grandson of Lord Zhen Guo."

Jia Hu smiled and said, "I'm Jia Hu, are you?"

The man introduced himself boldly, and the others also said one by one when they saw this.

These people include Liuying, the great-grandson of Duke Li, Ma Hong, the great-grandson of Duke Zhi, and several members of the same family of generals.Jia Hu knew in his heart that this was probably the family that Ba Kilometer had a good relationship with the Beijing Prince's Mansion.

Jia Hu glanced at Shui Rong with a smile, Shui Rong was a little guilty, he hurriedly laughed, and said, "I'm late, I'll punish myself with three glasses." As he spoke, he raised the wine bottle and raised his head, drank three glasses in a row, and turned the bottle upside down to show that no drop was left .

"Cheer up!" Niu Xiujie clapped his hands and shouted.

The atmosphere suddenly became lively. At this time, a young man in the corner said with a sour voice: "Isn't it too late for Jia Hu? It should be fined three cups!"

Jia Hu paused and looked up.The man looked at him defiantly.

Jia Hu recognized that this was Jiang Fei brought by Niu Xiujie.The Jiang family didn't belong to four kings or eight princes, only Jiang Fei's father was named a third-class general because of his military exploits. Without Niu Xiujie's signal, how could he dare to provoke Jia Hu, the son of a first-class uncle.

Shui Rong looked at Niu Xiujie with sharp eyes, but Niu Xiujie faced him calmly, and said, "I've already drank it, but if Brother Jia doesn't drink it, wouldn't it be disrespectful?"

Seeing this, Liu Ying hurriedly smoothed things over, "Where is it late? The post we posted originally asked Jia Xiong to arrive at noon, isn't it just right now?"

Then Jiang Fei said again: "It's the end of noon! Hmph, we're all starving to death!"

Mahon just watched, not speaking.

Shui Rong persuaded, "No more than three cups, I'll drink it for him!"

"No," Jia Hu stopped his hand and said, "I'll do it myself."

A gleam of joy flashed in Jiang Fei's eyes.It would give him a kind of pleasure to deflate these proud sons of heaven, and with the protection of Duke Zhen's great-grandson, he would not give Niu Xiujie face.

Who knew that Jia Hu really didn't give face, he said: "Before I came out, my father told me not to drink too much, so I will replace wine with tea and toast everyone." He didn't mention anything and punished himself with three glasses.

Under the different gazes in the private room, Jia Hu poured himself a cup of tea and drank it. After coming in for so long and talking a lot, he was dying of thirst.He opened his eyes and spoke nonsense again, saying: "It's getting late, it's not good to delay everyone's drinking, Jia Hu won't bother you." He left as soon as he said that.

Ma Hong looked at the hot sun outside, speechless.But the master had already left, so he got up very disrespectfully to Niu Xiujie and said, "It's getting late, I should go home too." The people he brought also smiled apologetically, and followed them away.

Shui Rong looked at Niu Xiujie with a bad expression, and said word by word: "Is this the sincerity of the Niu family?"

Niu Xiujie snorted, and said: "What are you doing with the Niu family? My father is also a first-class uncle, why should I bow my head?" Jia Hu wanted to take his place in this small circle since he came here. Niu Xiujie was oppressed by Jia Hu since he was a child. When I was in college, since Jia Hu was admitted as a scholar, my ears have never been quiet. Can you not blame him?

Water-soluble gas is extremely strong, Niu Jizong has excellent talents, why is his son so confused!Is it true that Hachiko is not as good as a generation? !He said displeasedly: "I'll look for you later!" He chased Jia Hu away without looking back.

Jiang Fei's face turned pale with fright. He didn't expect that this Jia Hu would take the soft but not the strong. As a troublemaker, he would inevitably not be used by Niu Xiujie to vent his anger.

Liu Ying looked at everyone in bewilderment, didn't they agree to join Larong Mansion?After a while, he sighed, and saw that Jiang Fei's face was pale. After all, he grew up together, and it was pitiful, so he sat down to comfort him.

After Jia Hu went out, she hummed a few times in her heart.This time Ma Wei gave it, the momentum is too small and very subtle, if it is really a brat, it will not be discovered.Although it didn't matter, he didn't intend to form a clique with a group of military generals, so he took advantage of the trend to make trouble.

After he came out, Shui Rong came out right after him.Shui Rong was angry and anxious, he managed to get closer yesterday, but don't be ruined by today's incident.He said very annoyed: "Brother Jia, don't be annoyed!" He only talked about Jiang Fei, "That kid doesn't know what to do, so I will ask him to apologize to you later."

Jia Hu had a half-smile, "There's no need for an apology. You'd better go back to the bar and have a drink, you don't have to spoil your interest because of me."

Shui Rong was distressed, the matter of the lord hadn't been settled yet, how could he let Jia Hu go?It is necessary to persuade him to stay.Jia Hu naturally refused, so Shui Rong could only say: "Otherwise, I will talk to you alone in the future. Just you and me."

Jia Hu raised his eyebrows, and said: "Your Majesty, you want to talk to me? Forget it, it's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Your Majesty hasn't eaten yet, so it's better to do it now."

Shui Rong happily agreed, and was about to say that there might be no boxes in Zhuangyuan Building at noon, let's go to Hongyun Building next door, when Jia Hu said: "The shopkeeper should have reserved a box for me, we will go there." , Call the crane to go back and call the shopkeeper.

King Bei Jing in "A Dream of Red Mansions" is also a character with strong wrists, otherwise, how could he become the only character among the four kings who attacked the king as he was and was safe and sound in the end?At least the other three kings have been stripped of their titles for various reasons.What's more, after the Jia family fell, the King of Beijing Jing was also the only one who was willing to extend his hand. It seemed that he was not unfeeling, but he could communicate well.
