The Red Chamber: Jia She Xiuxian Ji

After picking up the things, Jia Zhu hurried to the Rongxi Hall again. He had already inquired about it. His uncle was drinking tea with Prince Zhongrui in the hall, so he couldn't miss it.

Jia Zhu came over in a hurry, Jia She knew it, he smiled and said to Tu Yu: "Brother Zhu, he is really a kind-hearted kid, much better than Zheng's second child."

Tu Yu said: "That child is a good one. The Second Household has him around, so you don't have to worry about the Second Household. They won't starve to death anyway."

"It's a pity for this child. He has a pair of parents like that. Fortunately, he has grown up. In the future, Jia Zheng and his wife will not be able to control him. With us here, Brother Huan and Tanchun should have a good future. I just hope This job, he can complete it perfectly."

"Don't worry, you won't be disappointed."

The two of them already had a good impression of Jia Zhu, and Jia Zhu came to thank him with incomparable sincerity. The two of them were even more satisfied, and they mentioned a lot of things to him, so that Jia Zhu could avoid many detours.

The two of them were originally in the emperor's heart, but now the direction of the court is clear to them, and what they said has something to say, which benefited Jia Zhu a lot, and he suddenly realized.

The three of them talked until it was almost time for dinner, and Jia Amnesty wanted to keep Jia Zhu to eat with him, and let him taste the ultimate delicacy of potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes by the way.

But because after he was promoted, he didn't come to see his parents immediately, but went to see Jia She, who had always been at odds with their second wife, which made Jia Zheng very upset. Let someone call Jia Zhu.

Seeing that it was getting late, but Jia Zhu hadn't come back yet, instead he pretended to stay in Rongxitang for dinner, Jia Zheng couldn't sit still, and hurriedly asked his long follower, Qin Xian, to look for Jia Zhu in person.

Jia Zhu was influenced by Confucian culture since he was a child. This dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and it was okay to disobey Jia Zheng occasionally. He still couldn't do things that allowed him to put Jia Zheng's face on the ground for a long time.

Seeing that Jia Zheng wanted to see him, and asked his confidants to invite him in person, no matter how unwilling Jia Zhu was, he could only apologize to Jia She and the two, and then went back to the second room with Qin Xian.

Of course, Jia Zhu has been a mother and son with Jia Zheng and his wife for more than 20 years. Jia Zhu is very clear about the virtues of those two people. Jia Zhu can't do what his parents say.

Therefore, Jia Zhu just followed Qin Xian to Jia Zheng's foreign study, walking with his head bowed all the way, not even wanting to ask his parents what's going on, so Qin Xian, who had a lot to say, couldn't say a word. Come out, send people to the door of the study, and report: "Master, the uncle is here."

Jia Zhu stood at the door, quietly waiting for Jia Zheng to be summoned, and at the same time was ready to be made things difficult.

Sure enough, as he expected, it had been a while since Qin Xian's report, and the discussion in the secretary was still there, but no one let him in.

Jia Zhu thought that sure enough, after decades, his father's method has not changed, it is still the same.

Fortunately, Jia Zhu was well prepared. He took a step back, took out a corn cob from his sleeve pocket, and gnawed on it like no one else was there.

After receiving the imperial decree, he went to Rongxi Hall. He didn't even have time to eat. If it's time for dinner tonight, if he didn't fill in something, he would starve to death.

Eating the sweet corn, Jia Zhu couldn't help feeling that the uncle would love others. Knowing that he spent so much time studying and forgetting to eat and sleep in the early years, his body was ruined and he couldn't stand the hunger. Before he left, he stuffed two corn cobs in his hand, just to let him When this happens, don't starve yourself.

The smell of boiled corn was not strong, but at this moment everyone's attention was on Jia Zhu, and their eyes fell to the ground as they watched Uncle Zhu's godlike operation.

The golden, plump thing in Jia Zhu's hand has become famous in the whole capital in the past two days. Who doesn't know corn and sweet potatoes nowadays? !

Time kept moving forward, an hour passed unconsciously, and Jia Zhu still did not wait for Jia Zheng's call.

On an early autumn night, the temperature was slightly lower, and Jia Zhu's thin body couldn't stand it anymore. After an uninvited sneeze, Jia Zhu looked at the sky. It was just half an hour later, and Jia Zheng hadn't called him in yet. , he couldn't hold it anymore.

After straightening her clothes, she was thinking about what her uncle had said to him just now, and just when she was about to put it into action, Yuanyang came over at the order of Jiamu.

"Master Zhu, the old lady is waiting for you in Rongqingtang, why are you still here?"

Jia Zhu was puzzled: "The old lady is still waiting for me?" How could he remember that the old lady didn't look for him?But he wouldn't be so stupid as to push away Jia's mother's kindness.

Yuanyang said with a serious face: "Isn't it? You are very happy today, the old lady is so happy, she still wants to wait for you to celebrate together. Let's go, don't make the old lady wait too long."

Jia Zhu looked embarrassed: "But I..."

Yuanyang waved his hands: "It's okay, the second master is busy, and the slaves will report to the second master later, I think the second master will not blame him."

Jia Zhu nodded, "That makes sense."

Jia Zhu took two steps forward, bowed to the bottom, and said in a loud voice: "Zhu didn't know that father had an important meeting with several uncles, so he came to disturb him, and made the old lady wait for Zhu, so he really deserved to be beaten. In order to deal with the important matter of father, Zhu will step down first, and come back at a later date."

After saying that, the study door, which had been closed all along, creaked, and finally opened, and Jia Zheng's figure appeared at the door.

Yuanyang bowed his knees and saluted, and said with a smile: "Second master, the old lady knew that Master Zhu's transfer order had arrived, so she was so happy, she was waiting in the Rongqing Hall to celebrate with Master Zhu. Come on, don’t wait and wait, seeing that it’s getting late, the slaves can’t help it, so they have to come and look for it.”

Jia Zheng stared at Jia Zhu for a while with a solemn face, then snorted coldly, and said a lesson: "What are you doing there? Didn't you hear that the old lady is still waiting for you? Your courtesy, filial piety, saint It’s impossible to learn all the articles in the dog’s stomach!”

Jia Zhu lowered her head and obediently listened to Jia Zheng's teachings. When Jia Zheng said she was comfortable, she waved her hand to let Jia Zhu leave.

Jia Zheng snorted coldly, flung his sleeves and entered the room, and closed the door with a bang.

Jia Zheng was very unhappy, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Jia Zhu is his eldest son, smart since he was a child, and Jia Zheng has always regarded him as the best hope of the Jia family's second wife.Therefore, Jia Zheng was overjoyed after Jia Zhu was enlightened and showed a reading ability that was different from ordinary people.For the revitalization of Erfang, Jia Zhu was detained by Jia Zheng to study by his side every day. She was young and had no friends. In just a few years of life, there was only reading, reading, reading!There is nothing next to it!

Enlightenment, study, imperial examination, and marriage, the short life was arranged so clearly that there was no mistake at all, so that when he was seriously ill, Jia Zheng still forced him to study. .

If Jia She and Tu Yu hadn't been there, Jia Zhu would have died long ago according to his predetermined fate.As far as Jia Zhu was concerned, when he escaped from death and saw the true face of Jia Zheng's hypocrite, Jia Zhu no longer had any hope for this family.On the contrary, Jia She and Tu Yu are more like his father.

In Jia Zhu's eyes, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang are not as important as the family uncle who is a few rooms away. He will provide for the couple until their death, and there will be no more.

This is also the reason why he would come to announce the good news to Jia Amnesty as soon as he got the transfer order, but at the same time, Jia Zhu also knew that his action offended the small-hearted Jia Zheng, and he was afraid that many moths would come out.

Qing Ke Zhan Guang stepped forward to compliment him: "The eldest son really has the style of a lord, and he has such a high position at a young age. It really is a tiger father without a dog."

"Yes, yes, the tiger father has no dogs."

"My lord is good at teaching children."

A few flatterers who were used to flattering people said a few words of flattery, which made Jia Zheng feel quite comfortable during the filming, and finally dissipated some of the gloom that had just formed.

At this time, Jia Amnesty's servant, Han Mo, came to pass on a message: "The Duke of the State said, Master Zhu is now an official from the fourth-rank court anyway, logically, in the yamen, the second master has to respect Master Zhu when he sees Master Zhu." Our lord said, keep a line in life, so we can meet each other in the future! If the second lord really thinks that Master Suanzhu is a saint, he should focus on his work and avoid mixing with people who can only play tricks, which will easily lower his IQ .”

Jia Zheng: ...

All the guests: ...

Although Han Mo didn't name them, everyone is not stupid, so of course it can be heard that the so-called lip service Han Mo refers to.

These Qing guests are all Juren and scholars who have lost their names in the imperial examinations in previous years and are unwilling to give up. They want to seek refuge with Jia Zheng, who was born in the Rongguo Mansion, and hope that Jia Zheng will have enough connections to choose officials with not so high ranks in the court. , recommend them up.

After all, in the eyes of these non-local candidates from the capital city, Jia Zheng, who was born in the Rongguo Mansion and the brother-in-law of Prince Teng, must have a lot of contacts in the officialdom, so they came to seek refuge one after another.

Who knew that as time went by, everyone would know that Jia Zheng was just a scumbag, and that the real man with all-hands and eyes was Jia She.
