[Red House] Li Changan

In front of the gate of Rongguo Mansion, two sedan chairs came in from the street and stopped firmly at the door. The concierge saw it and immediately stepped forward to inquire.

This is not a place where everyone's sedan chair can be parked here. Even if the Rongguo Mansion is no longer the honor and favor of the past, it is also the home of the Marquis, and the camel that died is bigger than the horse.

30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, who knows what will happen in the future.

"Whose sedan chair is this, I don't know—"

Zijuan helped Daiyu get off the sedan chair, glanced at the doorman who was coming, and smiled without saying a word.

Has the Jia family changed a group of people to serve?Don't even wink like this?

"From the residence of General Zuo of the Dingyuan Army."

"Dingyuan Army Left General's Mansion! That's, but Cousin—"

"I heard that the old lady is unwell, and my girl and uncle are here to visit her. If you don't go inside to report, how long are you going to make the girl and uncle wait?" Now, thinking about Daiyu's crimes and the sale of the Lin family's house, I feel angry.

Inexplicably betrothed someone back then, and then sold the family house, such a family, how can they save face for them.

Don't add insult to injury, that's all generosity.

"The cousin girl and uncle are waiting in the hall, and I will tell the old lady and the wife now."

"Go quickly."

Li Chang'an stepped forward, stretched out his hand to hug Daiyu's waist, smiled at Zijuan's indignant look, and couldn't help but want to make fun of her, it was rare to see Zijuan, who has always been steady, be so angry.

But today it was Pei Yuan who kept the snow geese, otherwise the Zicuckoo would come and blow up Jia's mansion like firecrackers.

Daiyu took Li Chang'an's hand, and said to Zijuan: "I'll go to see my grandmother later, you go with me, anyway, I grew up in her room when I was a child."

"Yes, listen to the girl."

"Master, you—"

"I'll wait for you outside, and catch up with Second Master Bao along the way. I heard that he has made a lot of progress over the years." Li Changan is a foreigner, so it is not easy for him to visit Mrs. Jia.

In fact, Daiyu's surname was not Jia, but a granddaughter. If it hadn't been for the friendship in those years, if she had always lived in the Lin family, she might have no relationship with the Jia family.

This time, I was thinking about Mrs. Jia's care back then, no matter what happened later, I still want to remember this love.

Hearing this, Daiyu laughed, looking at everything in front of her, it was both strange and familiar, unexpectedly, it has been so long.

However, why did Li Changan still miss Jia Baoyu?

It didn't seem like he was jealous, but he really paid attention to this person.

"Madam Lin is back?"

"Auntie." Daiyu stood up when she heard the sound, and bowed to Mrs. Wang who was walking, "Auntie and uncle how are you?"

Mrs. Wang took a look at Daiyu, her complexion was rosy and her spirit was bright, compared to when she left, she looked like a different person, especially the look between her eyebrows, which was completely different.

In fact, years ago when Li Chang'an was granted the title of General Zuo, when he came to Beijing to close the wind, the Jia family had already received the wind, and there were still many people in the house talking about it. Now, she has become the general's wife.

Being favored by the imperial court, isn't this more beautiful than the Jia's mansion today?

"The house...is fine, but the old lady has been living in the house because of the cold a few days ago. Now you are here. If she sees you, it will be better than being afraid of illness."

Daiyu smiled, and looked back at Li Changan: "Master, I'm going to visit my grandmother, you wait here for me."

"Don't worry, I'll wait here."

Standing there, Li Chang'an was tall and tall, and he was a person who had killed the enemy in battle. Just standing there, his aura was enough to make people have to be cautious.

Mrs. Wang is also well-informed, and she is really a bit timid when facing Li Changan.

Li Changan was not friendly to the Jia family at all, his eyes were full of disdain.

Smiling at Li Chang'an, Daiyu led Daiyu and Mrs. Wang to leave together. Before leaving, Mrs. Wang told her servants to go to Yihong Courtyard to call Jia Baoyu. There are male guests at home, so Jia Baoyu should come and entertain her.

Knowing that Jia Baoyu was in the house, Li Changan suddenly became interested.

I have heard that Jia Baoyu is a talented person with high talents, but unfortunately he is all focused on flowers and plants, and the relationship between men and women, unwilling to go with the world, and unwilling to leave his dream.

This disposition is no wonder Daiyu looked at him differently back then.

"Second Master, this is Cousin, General Zuo of the Dingyuan Army who just came back from Northern Xinjiang."

Baked Yan walked in front with a slight bend, and when he arrived in the hall, he stood sideways and introduced Li Changan's background for Jia Baoyu. Li Changan's identity was revealed.

Not for anything else, just to remind Jia Baoyu that the person in front of him is a celebrity in front of the imperial court today, and he cannot afford to offend him.

The old relationship is difficult, and you can't hurt yourself for the sake of a momentary mood.

"I don't know—"

"In turn, I should call you Second Brother, you can just call me by my name." Li Changan cupped his fists in return: "What did the old lady's doctor say?"

"The doctor said it was due to the cold, and it will be fine to rest for a few days. The prescription has been prescribed, and the mandarin ducks stare at it every day." Jia Baoyu sat down and asked Baked Tobacco to add two cups of new tea: "I just settled down, but are you still used to it?"

"I've been in northern Xinjiang for a while, and I'm used to it, but Daiyu has gotten used to it in Yangzhou for the past few years. When I come back, I feel that catkins are flying all over the sky in spring. It's strange that I'm not used to it."

Both of them are smart people, once Li Changan said this, no matter how many old feelings he had, he had to restrain himself, even asking a question in an open and honest manner seemed superfluous.

Li Changan took the initiative to mention Daiyu, but left Daiyu, Jia's family, and the capital completely.

Jia Baoyu was stunned, and then said: "Sister Lin came back with you this time, thinking about you is why she is reluctant to live in two places, it's just that grandmother's illness made you make an extra trip."

"I'm a relative. The elder is sick. I should have come earlier. It's because of the heavy workload in my government office that I delayed it."

This sentence sounds much more pleasing than before. Li Changan is a person who doesn't like deviousness. Even if he knows the inside way, it doesn't mean he is willing to do things the same way.

What Jia Baoyu said just now surprised him.

It doesn't look like a person who can't figure it out, so he is much more sober.

"The Dutong Yamen has just been built, so it needs to be busy. This battle can be regarded as elated, a rare victory." Jia Baoyu has read a lot of books in the past two years.

Her temperament is still the same as before, but no matter how good the jade is, after being infiltrated by people for a long time, it has to be infected with human habits.

He still doesn't like the way of being an official, but as a son of man, he must observe filial piety and fulfill his responsibilities as a son of man. In this life, he must do so.

"This spring's big exam, is it about to start?"

"There are still ten days left. This year's opening is late. At this time in previous years, the exams have already been completed, and it is almost time to release the results." After Jia Baoyu finished speaking, thinking about the big exam this spring, he felt a little uneasy.

Obtaining the fame would make the family happy, but it also meant that he would no longer have the life he wanted to live in the future.

Li Changan looked at Jia Baoyu's expression and put down the tea in his hand: "Then I wish you the title on the gold list."

After all, Jia's mansion doesn't have much scenery anymore.
