Youwei, the heir of the Red Chamber

When Jia Lian woke up, it was already noon the next day.

Liu'er looked at Jia Lian, who had clear eyes, and hurried over to him, stretched out his hand to support Jia Lian, "Hehe, Second Master, you're finally awake."

Jia Lian opened his eyes and scanned the room, only to find that there was a green screen dressing table, a lotus-colored bed curtain, and everything that belonged to his daughter's house. Just as he was about to ask Liu'er, he saw a navy blue man walking in the door. An old lady in a brocade robe.The old lady was followed by a few pretty little maidservants, all wearing emerald green shorts and skirts.The old lady was of course his grandmother.

Mrs. Xu walked in slowly, and seeing that Jia Lian had already sat up, she hurriedly walked over in two steps, stretched out her hand to support Jia Lian's shoulder, and said lovingly: "My son, you are good, you should Good rest."

Jia Lian rolled her eyes and smiled softly, "Grandmother, grandson is fine now."

"It's not a problem, the shoulders are purple after being hit by such a heavy hand." The old lady stretched out her hand to caress the wound with sour eyes, but she didn't dare to touch it.

When Jia Lian heard this, the strange color in her black eyes disappeared in an instant, she just stretched out her hand to cover the old lady Xu's hand, and comforted her: "The grandson is in good health, I just accidentally bumped into it yesterday, grandma, don't worry about your grandson." gone."

The old lady Xu was not willing to agree, and said to the maid behind her: "Hurry up and bring the soup and medicine, it will lose its properties when it gets cold."

The maid hurriedly brought it over, and the old lady took the blue and white porcelain pill, touched the wall of the bowl with her finger, tested the temperature, and gave Jia Lian the medicine with a spoon.

Jia Lian would not disappoint the old man's kindness, so he swallowed the soup with a smile.

The other maids arranged the hot water for washing and clothes one by one, just waiting for Master Sun's orders.

Second Master Lian of Rongguo Mansion, who had just won the first prize, did not return all night, and Mother Jia naturally had another opinion.

Now this big house is getting more and more promising. Since Rong Ning Ergong started his family with military exploits, the two houses have made the last wish of their ancestors, and the back door of the house is to abandon martial arts and follow literature.From the generation of the ancestors, he began to study calligraphy, and the two sons, Jia She and Jia Zheng, have already achieved initial results.Especially the young Jia Zheng, who was studious and intelligent since he was a child, and got a civil job with the emperor's grace.Jia's mother thought this was the best, but she never thought that the grandson of the big family, who has always been inconspicuous, would be the number one scholar in high school. At this age, how could it not surprise people.Although he doesn't like him, but he can make the family look good, so he can't be too cold.The high school's decree came to the mansion, so he ordered the eldest daughter-in-law Xing to give rewards to the maids in the mansion, and the whole family mobilized to sweep the ancestral hall, waiting for the grandson to return to the mansion to pay homage to the ancestors. It's just that in the evening, there was no sign of anyone, until the servants of Xu's mansion came to report that the grandson was resting there today.After hearing this, how could he not be annoyed, and an agate bracelet fell to the ground and became shattered.

Jia's mother was so angry that she didn't sleep all night. At noon the next day, the mother-in-law came to report that Lian's second master had returned to the mansion. Jia's mother snorted coldly, "Even if he wins the first prize, he must honor his grandmother! He can come and see me."

The mother-in-law got the order, kicked up the curtain and ran out.

At this time, in Lixiangyuan, Mrs. Wang was wearing a brown silk silk dress and a headband, kneeling in the nunnery in the west room and reciting scriptures.

Jia Zheng walked in and saw that Mrs. Wang was reciting scriptures with her eyes closed. She snorted softly, shook her sleeves, and sat on a four-corner chair beside her, "Since there is such a big happy event in the big room, you You can't keep such a cold face, if you should move, you still have to move."

"Amitabha." Mrs. Wang muttered softly.Only then did he put down the prayer beads, and stood up with the support of the old lady.

Mrs. Wang waved her hand, and the old lady bowed her waist and backed out.

"Master, don't worry, all the gifts that should be prepared have been prepared, and the left and right will not embarrass our second room.

Jia Zheng sighed and stroked his beard. "I heard that the emperor appreciates Lian'er very much, and I'm afraid the future will be bright. Now that Yuan Chun is in the palace, this brother's help will be indispensable in the future."

Although Mrs. Wang didn't quite agree with Jia Zheng's words, she didn't agree with Jia Zheng's words, she just said: "What the master said is true, but about the matter of Yuanchun, I'm afraid that in the future there will be more places to rely on my brother. Sister Feng came to the house the other day Lian'er avoided seeing her. If my elder brother found out about this matter, he would definitely not like it. I begged for Lian'er's and Sister Feng's marriage so many times. Now that he is so contemptuous, I'm afraid In the future, brother should also vent his anger on Yuan Chun."

Jia Zheng's face changed slightly, "Well, brother-in-law shouldn't forget the relationship between the two families just because of such a trivial matter?"

Mrs. Wang shook her head, "This Sister Feng is the eldest brother's only seedling. It was entrusted to the second brother at the beginning, but now he has been wronged. How can the second brother ignore it?"

Jia Zheng thought about it for a while, and then said: "What should I do? How about I edit a book myself and explain the whole story to my brother-in-law?"

Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand to support Jia Zheng's hand, and persuaded him: "Master is confused, no matter how you say this, it's our family's fault. Why don't I go there in person, first to show that we value it, and second, to persuade us with brother and sister love. , in this way, maybe the second brother won't pursue it."

"In this way, it's okay. I'm going to trouble Madam over there." Jia Zheng never likes to talk too much about the inner house. Now that Mrs. Wang has come forward to mediate, it's a lot of peace of mind, and he pays more attention to Mrs. Wang in his heart. .

Here, Jia Lian had just returned to the mansion, but was blocked by the old lady of Rongshou Hall.

The old lady slapped a thousand, her Chinese-shaped face was full of embarrassment, "Second Master Lian, the old lady heard that you are back, and is anxious to see you."

If it was on a normal day, Jia Lian would still be willing to deal with it, but it just caused his old illness, so naturally he didn't have such a mood. He only said that he drank at the Qionglin banquet yesterday, fearing that the alcohol smell would disturb the old lady's cleanliness.

"This..." The old lady rubbed her hands in embarrassment, and when she was about to speak, she saw Jia Lian's face turned cold again, she swallowed her saliva immediately, bowed her waist and said, "Old slave, go and answer."

Jia Lian touched his stamina subconsciously, and his heart suddenly jumped.What happened after yesterday's illness?According to what my grandfather said, I fainted to the ground at that time, but no other people were seen. Who did this?

Seeing his master's rare stupefaction, Liu'er bravely called out softly: "Second Master, Second Master..." This feeling of pinching his throat made him feel uncomfortable, as expected, he was following his master, even himself Contaminated a bit of habit.

Jia Lian regained his composure, shook his head slightly, and walked straight to Rongxi Hall.Liu'er followed behind without missing a step.

Honorary Hall

In the east room, Jia She was stroking his beard happily, and ordered a few servants to go back and forth in Rongxi Hall.

Mrs. Xing also had a smile on her face, her eyebrows arched, "Master, I don't know if Lian'er likes these new additions."

"I like it, I am his father, how can I not understand him?"

This time, Jia Amnesty spent a lot of money, donating his collection of green inkstones and sable wolf brushes, just to win the smile of his promising son.

Mrs. Xing knew that although the master of the family was in charge of the house, he was not willing to spend a penny for these antiques on weekdays. It really is a deep love between father and son.

Liu Da and Master Liu took a few boys and maids to tidy up Jia Lian's bedroom and study, and his character really improved.Having won the attention of Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Xing, as well as the reward, they all happily went to buy wine and eat.

As soon as Jia Lian entered the room, he felt the changes in the room.Naturally, I knew in my heart what the reason for this change was.To Liu'er behind him, he said, "You go out first."

Liu'er was slightly dazed, and hurried out of the room again, closing the door behind him.

Jia Lian's black eyes scanned the room, and the handsomeness slowly clustered.In my heart, I felt a little bit of hatred towards Jia Amnesty.Although I won the number one prize this time, I'm just starting out in an official career, and I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future, but at Jia She's age, he can't see the turbulence in it at all, at this stage, he knows how to play with these women's minds, I am afraid that there will be very little help that I can give myself in the future.

"Knock, knock, knock." After the door rang three times, Jia She's voice came, "Lian'er, are you in there?"

Jia Lian withdrew his mind, lifted his robe and stood up, moved to open the door, and saw Jia She standing outside with a smile, and Liu Da behind him was holding a pile of calligraphy and painting, looking very hard.

Seeing Jia Lian, Jia She immediately walked into the room with a smile, and said with an excited smile, "Lian'er, this time you will give your father a face. This is the champion. Since the dynasty, there have not been many champions. What's more, at your age, now the second bedroom is three points lower than usual when seeing me."

Jia Lian turned around and walked to the table, poured a cup of hot tea on his own, took a sip to relieve his fatigue, and quietly listened to Jia She's non-stop talking, feeling elated.

When Jia She said that the old lady sent someone to deliver things, he found that Jia Lian was drinking tea slowly, not paying attention to himself at all, and his enthusiasm suddenly collapsed.

"Lian'er, why do you look unhappy?"

Jia Lian put down the teacup, glanced at Jia Amnesty with cold eyes, and waved to Liu Da who was beside him.

After everyone from Liu went out, he said slowly: "Master, do you remember what I said before, seeking skins from tigers?"

"Seeking skin from a tiger?" Jia Amnesty looked puzzled, as if he was very familiar with it. He scratched his head and thought for a while, and then he remembered that this was the problem with Wang Ziteng that his son had mentioned before when the family was separated, "Lianer, what do you say?" Is it Wang Ziteng?"

Jia Lian's slender fingers lightly clasped the tabletop, and the sound of "thump, thump" made Jia Amnesty feel terribly panicked.Jia She doesn't want to cause trouble at this time, now that he can live a stable life, his son is up to the challenge, and the second wife has to look up at him, this is something that I never dreamed of before, but now it has become a reality Putting it in front of myself, it is natural to enjoy it.As for that Wang Ziteng, if he backed down a little bit, he couldn't lose face...

"Lian, Lian'er, my father thinks that now that you have become the champion, he should not dare to do anything." Jia She said with a guilty conscience.

"Dum—" the voice was heavy and long.

The slender fingers stopped moving.Jia Lian pursed her thin lips lightly, and said with a sneer, "Master, are you afraid?"

Jia Amnesty was taken into consideration by the words, a little unnatural, tilted his head, looked out of the window, and said, "The position of a father is no lower than him, what are you afraid of him?"

"That's wrong." Jia Lian suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth, his black eyes were gloomy, and said coldly: "Prince Teng holds great power, and he is the confidant of a saint. In the hall, who knows the name of the master? Now the ancestors are partial to the second uncle. If there is really a small leak, someone will pick it up, and it will be a scapegoat in the future! Now the master is the head of the family , general crimes can’t touch you, if you really take action, I’m afraid the crime of treason will be unavoidable. Whether you are exiled to the frontier or your head is thrown to the ground, the master can choose one of them.”

After these words, Jia Amnesty was already in a cold sweat.Subconsciously twisting the corner of the robe with the palm of his hand.

Jia Lian saw that Jia Amnesty was not totally indifferent, so he just dropped the last sentence lightly, "You must know that people are born in sorrow and die in peace!"
