The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return
Chapter 85
It turned out that the person toasting to each other was not the host of the banquet, but Jia Hu, who was already a sixth-rank official Hanlin attendant at a young age.
Most of you here are here for Jia Zheng's prominent relatives, so before the banquet started, we started socializing with the drinks that were served.
In front of the second uncle, Jia Hu also raised his glass and took a few sips as it was not easy to lose face.
He said with a smile: "Hu doesn't drink well, please don't take offense."
Everyone heard that, regardless of relatives, friends and colleagues, enough is enough.
Unexpectedly, there was a moron who was Jia Zheng's former colleague, the son of a fifth-rank official from the Ministry of Industry, named Wu Xing, who thought his father's official position was one level higher than Jia Hu's, so he came forward licking his face.He wanted to show his abilities in front of his father's fellow sons, so he came forward with a glass of wine, and said to Jia Hu with a smile on his face, "Lord Jia, Wu Xing from the Ministry of Industry is my father. Let me have a toast first, Master Jia." If you want to make a friend, please also drink this cup."
As he spoke, he drank the wine in the glass in one go, and the glass was down.
Jia Hu smiled slightly, but took a sip as before, not intending to make friends with him.
The man lost face and couldn't get angry, so he had no choice but to return to his original seat.
A person beside him laughed softly: "You only think that your father is from the fifth rank, how could you forget that Mr. Jia's father is the super-rank Duke?"
It only scared Wu Xing, his face turned pale.I deeply regret not showing off.
Just as I was talking, some family members came to report, the young master has already dressed, please move to the flower hall.
A long table had been set up in the flower hall, and there was everything on the table. Jia Baoyu was dressed in a big red envelope, which was placed on the table by his family.Jia Hongbao crawled curiously among a pile of exquisite objects, her black grape-like eyes overflowing with aura.
Jia Zheng stared at his youngest son closely, not daring to vent his anger.
All the guests congratulated each other.
Jia Hongbao picked up a jade abacus and lost it.
Picked up a brush and lost it again.
Suddenly, the tip of his nose twitched, and he smelled a sweet smell, similar to the smell that he usually smells on the beautiful maid.Jia Hongbao's eyes lit up, and she crawled straight to a pile of gray things.
There was gloating in Jia Hu's eyes, watching Jia Hongbao happily grab some makeup and hairpins, and happily stretched out his hand to Jia Zheng.
The guests were startled at first, and then praised the young master for his filial piety.
Jia Zheng's face, which was originally bad, was now as black as ink. He was furious, and said, "In the future, you will be a drunkard!"
Jia Hu pouted secretly, and said with a smile: "Second Uncle is serious. Children don't know what wine and sex are. Throughout the ages, those who get a pen and paper may not be a great Confucian, and those who get an official seal may not be a high official. If the future is in this little boy The catch-up week is set, and I wait for the students to study hard? According to my nephew, this catch-up week is just a trial intention, and the future depends on the teaching of my parents."
This remark is very reasonable, and it touched Jia Zheng's heart.
He is still solemn, but his face looks much better.
When the news of the moment spread to the inner court, Mrs. Wang heard about it, and her face suddenly showed astonishment.
But it turned out that Xiao Wang had trained Baoyu to catch the "Book of Filial Piety" early on, and it has been like this several times recently. Why did he lose the chain in Zhengri?Then he ordered his family members to examine the gadgets used by Zhou Zhou carefully, and later found a strange fragrance in the seemingly inconspicuous pile of cosmetics and jewelry. ——This is what Jia Yuanchun usually used, and looking at the jewelry, it was all impregnated with spices.
This is a later story, let's not mention it for the time being.
It only said that Jia Hu watched a play, and when he came back, he smiled and told his family to listen.
Jia Ying was very curious and asked, "Brother, what is Baoyu doing instead of taking other good things, and only taking things from our daughter's house?"
Jia Hu smiled and said, "You don't know, there are more absurd things than this in Zha Zhou."
He then told a story: "There was a man in the previous dynasty whose father died when he was born. When he was one year old, he actually hugged his grandfather's thigh. At that time, no one knew the truth. But later he was promoted to a high official and made A senior member of the first rank, who will always be in the position of Minister of Rites. This is exactly the same as his grandfather. Everyone suddenly realized that the peak of his glory in this life was foreshadowed from it. 100 years later, there is another person who is also Zhou Zhou hugging his father's waist, and then, guess what?"
Jia Lian was writing big characters at first, but lost his pen when he heard the sound, and said loudly, "I know! He became a high-ranking official like his father later, didn't he?"
Jia Ying got a glimpse of her brother's expression and thought it must be different, so she asked: "Is his father also a high official?"
Jia Hu nodded: "The official residence is first-class."
Jia Ying couldn't think about it, so she gave the same answer as Jia Lian and asked, "Really?" Seeing Jia Hu shaking her head, she begged, "My dear brother, tell me quickly. Otherwise, I won't be in peace today." Already!"
"Is it because you have no peace, or I have no peace?" Jia Hu nodded his sister's nose amusedly, and joked.
In the end, she fulfilled her wish. He said: "His father's official position is getting bigger and bigger, and he became the prince and tutor. Unexpectedly, once the prince rebelled, he was reduced to a prisoner and died in prison. His son is always studious. In order to support the family, he ran around, and finally got a job as a prison guard. ——This prison is where his father died where the time-stayed cell is."
Jia Ying suddenly realized: "Could it be that the father of the person behind did not die well, so he also did not die well?"
"You've entered the magic barrier!"
Jia Hu shook his head and smiled, "At that time, everyone thought it was because of Zhou Zhou, so Fang was far-fetched on this. Don't you know that he has always been sensitive and studious, and restrained himself. The official fortune is naturally his own credit. Finally, in the Ministry of Rites It is just a practice in the official circles of the previous dynasty, not only the two grandparents. The other did not learn well, and even fell into despair, and he was not capable enough to support himself. It is probably a coincidence that he made a prison history But this coincidence was taken out by the people of the time, and over time, everyone took it seriously."
Jia Ying still had doubts in her heart, thinking to herself: How can there be such a coincidence in the world.So I kept this matter firmly in my heart, and only waited for the future, or when there was confirmation, or when things were subverted, I would bring it up again.
Jia Hu didn't notice what his sister was thinking, so he only joked once, and then forgot about it.Now, seeing that Jia Lian was only obsessed with listening to the story, he put on a tiger face and threatened him, saying: "Don't you write today's big characters in three sheets!"
Jia Lian had no choice but to pouted a mouth that could hang an oil pot, and angrily went to paint red.
After a few days, the snow lotus in Jia Hu's room was called away by Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu still remembered what she said at the beginning, stroked Xuelian's hair, and said lovingly: "My good boy, I have suffered for you these few years."
This snow lotus has grown up, a woman in her twenties, shy and timid, no longer the water and spirit of the past, but she has a special charm.
It turns out that this snow lotus was intended by Mrs. Liu to be an aunt for her son.
Although there is a huge difference in age, this Liu family only has her eyes on Xuelian, the others are so kind, and they are not as caring as she is, she is very good-looking, and she loves her eldest son very deeply.
Now that she has stayed in Jia Hu's room for several years, Xuelian's original intentions have not changed, so Mrs. Liu asked Xuelian to go back to prepare, and the next day, she invited the mother to come to show her face.
Once the Xuelian's long-cherished wish came true, she was so happy that she revealed some traces of her whereabouts.
After dinner that day, Jia Hu lit candles in the room, a cup of tea, and a hand-worn scroll, just to pass the time.He always felt that Xuelian would come into the room from time to time, ponder for a while, but couldn't catch a flash of inspiration in his mind, so he asked: "Xuelian, what is your happy event today?"
As the name suggests, Snow Lotus is usually cold.
When the uncle asked something today, her face and neck were flushed, she forced herself to calm down, her voice was still trembling.
She couldn't stop sneaking glances at the uncle, and said, "It's nothing."
Her unusual expression reminded Jia Hu of something.
After asking a few words, Jia Hu asked about the face-opening.
He frowned unhappily.
What kind of person is this Xuelian, she has a delicate mind and has served Jia Hu for many years, whenever he moves his eyebrows, Xuelian will know how the uncle is feeling.
She knelt on the ground aggrieved, and said in a sad voice: "Master, the slaves know that Pu Liu's talent is not in the eyes of the master. Xuelian just wants to stay by the master's side..." As she spoke, she was choked up and unable to speak.
The beauty wept softly, like flowers and rain, but Jia Hu's cold heart was not softened.
He only knew that he had wasted Xuelian's prime time, and if he wanted her to marry now, he probably wouldn't be able to marry a good man.
Feeling guilty, he remembered what Su Ri said, closed his eyes for a long time, and said: "Come on, let's go."
He also said: "When you come back, change your real name back to Aunt Xue."
This snow lotus was originally surnamed Li, and it was born in a snowy winter day, so it was called Li Xue.Her birthday was on the same day as Jia Hunai's, so Jia Hu wanted her to be with her, maybe it was because of this.
He didn't expect that Xuelian would be tempted by a child.Although Jia Hu is shrewd, how does he know what his daughter's family is thinking?What's more, he was only in his teens at the time, and he was still in junior high school. Xue Lian was five years older than him!
It's just that after such a long delay, Jia Hu can't treat it as if nothing happened.
After a few days, the snow lotus opened her face, and she moved to a small courtyard very close to Jia Hu, and the waiters all called "Aunt Xue", which can be said to be considerate of this uncle's first woman.
Only Aunt Xue, leaning on the railing every day, looking forward to see through, did not wait for Jia Hu to step into the yard.For dozens of days, the number of times I saw him was not as good as when I was an aunt, and I don't know if she will regret it later.
What has Jia Hu been doing these past few days?
Jia Amnesty heard from outside that Jia Hu lingered in the brothel and Chu Pavilion every day, and was not very concerned about serious errands, and was very angry. When he returned home, he called, "Where's your uncle?"
The family members said: "The uncle is not in the house. Only his two young men are there."
Ordering his family to bring the crane back and welcome the pine, Jia Amnesty asked, "I'm asking you, but you answer honestly! How many times has that evildoer gone to the brothel? When did you go? Why didn't you follow him?"
He Gui hurriedly knocked down on the ground, and replied: "My master asked me a question, I dare not not answer. It's just that my master doesn't want us to be close to him these days, and he doesn't let us follow, we really don't know!"
Na Yingsong glanced at Hegui, seeing that Jia She was about to lose his temper, he hurriedly said, "Master! I have something to say!"
Jia She squinted at him once.
Ying Song hurriedly said: "In the past few days, my uncle often comes back late at night. There is a fragrance of powder on his body, and occasionally he can still see traces on his body. He Gui mentioned it, and my uncle must have gone to the Nanfeng Pavilion that he always goes to. "
This Jia She immediately gave He Gui a warm heart, "What a servant protecting the lord, I dare to lie to the master!"
Someone had reported to Jia Hu a long time ago, Jia Hu just went down to court, hurried back, and saw that He Guisheng had been kicked by his father.
Father is the guide for son, Jia Hu, as a son of man, dare not disobey his father, so he swallowed his anger and asked: "Dare to ask father, but what's wrong with me as a boy? If so, just tell your son, and your son will teach him for you. He yelled again: "The crane returns! You still don't want to make an apology to your father!"
Most of you here are here for Jia Zheng's prominent relatives, so before the banquet started, we started socializing with the drinks that were served.
In front of the second uncle, Jia Hu also raised his glass and took a few sips as it was not easy to lose face.
He said with a smile: "Hu doesn't drink well, please don't take offense."
Everyone heard that, regardless of relatives, friends and colleagues, enough is enough.
Unexpectedly, there was a moron who was Jia Zheng's former colleague, the son of a fifth-rank official from the Ministry of Industry, named Wu Xing, who thought his father's official position was one level higher than Jia Hu's, so he came forward licking his face.He wanted to show his abilities in front of his father's fellow sons, so he came forward with a glass of wine, and said to Jia Hu with a smile on his face, "Lord Jia, Wu Xing from the Ministry of Industry is my father.

As he spoke, he drank the wine in the glass in one go, and the glass was down.
Jia Hu smiled slightly, but took a sip as before, not intending to make friends with him.
The man lost face and couldn't get angry, so he had no choice but to return to his original seat.
A person beside him laughed softly: "You only think that your father is from the fifth rank, how could you forget that Mr. Jia's father is the super-rank Duke?"
It only scared Wu Xing, his face turned pale.I deeply regret not showing off.
Just as I was talking, some family members came to report, the young master has already dressed, please move to the flower hall.
