Jia Cong, the concubine who crossed the Red Chamber

Jia Cong doesn't seem to be favored by Jia's family, but in the eyes of everyone in the big house, he is a treasure.Therefore, Jia Cong's yard was cleaned up very properly.Jia Cong was happy for a while, and named it "Youzai Pavilion", which was taken from "The Book of Songs·Xiaoya·Caishu" in "Youzai Youzai is also cruel."

Autumn is a cool season. Jia Cong has been in school for a few days. He has just finished school at this time and is leaning in the pavilion, holding a volume of Analects, shaking his head and reading.

Mrs. Xing had been ill for several days, and the doctor said it was just resting, so Jia Lian, Jia Cong and others just greeted outside the door every day, and did not dare to enter without Mrs. Xing's order.Speaking of which, Jia Cong has not seen Mrs. Xing for several days.

At this time, Sister Feng was flattering Jia Mu.Sister Feng is cheerful and good at joking, which makes Jia's mother very happy.Just as they were talking and laughing, Ping'er, the eldest maid next to Sister Feng, came in to answer, saying that someone from the Wang family had come.Jia Mu hurriedly said, "Go back and have a look, maybe there is something important."

Seeing this, Sister Feng was not polite, she saluted, got up and left, and took Ping'er and others back to the big room.

After entering her own room, Sister Feng's anxious expression came down, and she raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "How is my acting? Does the old lady believe it?"

Ping'er pursed his lips and laughed, "Take a rest, be careful that you really revealed your secrets."

At this time, besides Sister Feng and Ping'er, there was one other person in the room, and upon seeing this, he hurriedly bowed to say hello, "Greetings to miss."

Sister Feng said: "Sister, get up quickly. What did my father think about the words I passed back earlier?"

The visitor said: "Master thought about it carefully for a few days, and felt that this matter could be done, so he specially asked the old lady, and the old lady also thought that it would be good if she could help."

Sister Feng chatted with the visitor for a while, and after sending the visitor away, she got up and went to Mrs. Xing.Sister Feng couldn't enter the house either, but she just told Mother Wang about the matter and asked Mother Wang to report it for her.After Wang Momo came out, she said, "Madam said this is a good thing, let Second Grandma decide for herself."

Sister Feng said with a smile, "well, I'll go back to the old lady and the second master in a while, and we'll leave tomorrow." After finishing speaking, she rushed to Jiamu's yard without stopping.

Yuanyang saw Sister Feng rushing over with a happy face, and hurriedly said, "Second Grandma Wanfu, the old lady was still talking about it just now, looking at Second Mistress, I am afraid there is a happy event."

Sister Feng smiled and said: "Isn't it a happy event? I'll go to pay my respects to the old lady, so as not to worry my ancestors."

Jia Mu laughed in the room and said, "It's Brother Feng, I heard your laughter when I was inside."

Sister Feng hurriedly raised the curtain and entered the inner room, and said with a smile: "I was just about to tell the old lady that just now, my natal family came, and Master Shen Cen from Xiangguo Temple has returned to Beijing. The master my brother specially asked for, the whole family has to go Pray in the temple."

When Jia Mu heard this, she said happily, "This is a good thing. You don't know it when you are young. I still had to teach Master Shen Cen back then. There are so many people in the alley."

Sister Feng smiled and said: "Exactly. I have heard the name of the mage before, and now the mage nods. It is a great blessing to be able to fast for a few days."

The next day, Jia Lian followed Sister Feng back to Wang's house, and even Mother Wang went.Together with the Wang family, several people went to Xiangguo Temple to eat fast.Because Mrs. Xing is not feeling well, and Sister Feng is not at home, there is no one in charge of the big house.Jia Mu sent a message and asked the second wife to help.

In the big room.After hearing this, Jia Amnesty said doubtfully, "Even if there is no one in charge of the eldest room, it is up to the old lady to take a look at it. Why is it my aunt's turn to take care of the affairs of the uncle's room?"

Mrs. Xing pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The old lady was born as a general. She has not changed her habits for decades. You can tell by looking at Baoyu. When the old lady thinks about etiquette, there will be no such things."

Jia She said: "No matter what she is, I don't know anything about her. A few days ago, I discussed with Dongfu Zhen'er to go to his place for a drink. We called some opera singers, and we were going to get drunk for three days. It just so happens that it will take three days for Lian'er and his wife to come back."

Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "Actor, I heard that Zhen'er has raised several opera singers. I'm afraid the master wants to take this opportunity to see and see."

Jia She said with a smile: "Madam, are you jealous? Don't worry, I will definitely 'guard your body like a jade' for you." After that, it is not known what kind of petty feelings there were between the two of them.

The next day, as Jia She and Mrs. Xing said, all the people in charge left, leaving only Mrs. Xing who was not in good health, and Jia Cong who lived alone in Youzai Pavilion.

Mrs. Wang saw that the interior of the big room was empty, she was very unhappy, and also saw that Mrs. Xing hadn't seen that precious concubine for a few days, she felt that she must be suffering from some serious illness.The second wife brought Chun Lan, Xia He, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei triumphantly to the big room early in the morning.It is not easy for her to enter Jia Amnesty's house, and Mrs. Xing recuperates in her yard.Therefore, Mrs. Wang went to Jia Lian and Sister Feng's yard to see if the servants were lazy.

Sister Feng took Ping'er and An'er back to Wang's house, leaving Xi'er and Le'er to look after the house.The two of them were doing needlework together. Seeing Mrs. Wang coming in, they hurriedly got up to greet her. "Second wife is here, please sit in the room, we will serve you tea."

Mrs. Wang looked around at the furnishings in the room, frowned and said, "No need, I'm just here to take a look. Don't just think about being lazy and slippery just because your second grandma is not at home. I will often send people to look at it these days Look, if there is anything inappropriate, report it to me quickly, okay?"

The two nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Wang walked around Sister Feng's room, touching here and looking there, before she left satisfied.Xi'er and Le'er hurriedly wrote down the things Mrs. Wang touched one by one, but they didn't dare to move them, they still put them there in case Mrs. Wang came again.

As for Jia Cong, Mrs. Wang made a mistake.Thinking of himself and others, he felt that he was just a bastard and would not have any good things, so he ignored it.

In the evening, because Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian were not around, Jia Cong only ate dinner in his yard.Three or five women from the big kitchen came, bringing food boxes one by one to eat.It's just four dishes and one soup, so it's not as good as the example of the old lady and the wife who have a good-looking maid or mother-in-law by her side.Although Jia Cong is not the kind of picky eater and drinker, but he finally caught Mrs. Wang's handle, how could he let it go?

Jia Cong waved his hand and said to Little Suyou and the others: "How many of you share these dishes? Let's see if you go out after eating. Don't make a fuss about it. Little Suyou, you can quietly tell Manager Lin to get me something to protect my stomach." Here comes the thick soup, don't disturb others, bring it in carefully." Mrs. Wang was a little stupider than expected, Jia Cong couldn't help but twitched his lips when he thought of this.After eating the soup that Lin Zhixiao sent, he rested early.

The next day, Jia Cong didn't even have breakfast, so he brought two servants, short-sweet cheese, small glutinous rice, and a companion, namely Nanny Li's son, He Kang, Jia Cong's nanny brother, and a group of four Went home to learn to read.

Seeing Jia Cong's silence in the big kitchen, he became even more arrogant.For three days in a row, Jia Cong lived only on the soup that Lin Zhixiao sent him.Even the lunch in the family school was not delivered by Jia Cong because no one brought it from the big kitchen.Jia Cong persisted for three days.

On the morning of the fourth day, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen were full of wine and food, and they met at home to learn about the knowledge of Jia's children.

Jia Zhen is the patriarch and has a high right to speak. He had a fit and wanted to come to the family school for inspection, but no one said anything.Just as soon as she entered the door, Jia Zhen, a big dude, was frightened by a group of little dudes.At this time Jia Dairu was not there, it was his grandson Jia Rui.Jia Rui is the most self-seeking, unruly person, and he is not very serious on weekdays. Naturally, no one listens to what he says, let alone he doesn't care.

At this time, a group of boys in the room were chatting with each other happily, and even threw a few balls of paper to each other when they talked about the excitement.As soon as Jia Zhen entered the door, she was hit by a ball of paper and immediately became furious.

Jia Zhen put it nicely, she is the patriarch, and put it bluntly, she is the food and clothing parents of this group of collateral descendants of the Jia family.So when everyone saw Jia Zhen furious, they all listened to the training honestly.

There was no sign of Jia Cong's fainting. He looked at Jia Zhen spitting and flying with an innocent face, but who would have thought that the next moment he rolled his eyes and passed out.On the other hand, his companion He Kang, trembling with fright, quickly caught Jia Cong and shouted, "Third Master, Third Master, what's wrong with you, Third Master?"

Seeing that his son had fainted, Jia She rushed forward and hugged him up.Come on, now Jia Cong became the savior of everyone, Jia Zhen followed Jia She and hurried back to Rongguo Mansion, how could he remember to train them.

When they returned to Rongguo Mansion, the doctor who gave Mrs. Xing's pulse hadn't left yet, and said, "Madam is fine." Jia She rushed in with Jia Cong in his arms.
