Tong Jia anecdote

<six eight>

After Tong Jiu came back from the grandma's yard, she didn't go directly into the main room, but sat in the side room for a while.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Hong Xiao and Hua Jingfu sitting in front of the desk in a row, their heads together, and Hong Xiao was teaching Hua Jingfu to write Manchu again.So, he cleared his throat, and sat down on the grand master's chair on the other side with his hands behind his back.

"Why don't you go in after you're back, what are you doing here?" Hong Xiao looked up at her curiously, and said, "Would you like some tea? I'll pour it."

Tong Jiu waved his hands, expressing that he didn't want to drink, and asked with some scruples, "Is there nothing wrong in the main room?"

"Don't worry, she won't throw dishes and bowls just because you want to take a concubine." Hong Xiao said amusedly, "Go back quickly, what's the matter hiding here, let's see how promising you are."

Tong Jiu dawdled into the main room, Ji Lan was playing chess with Fu Cha's sisters, and the maids saw that the master had returned, got up to salute and retreated.

"Did Madam tell you about Lao Qi?" Ji Lan asked casually, holding the chess piece in his hand.

"Oh, when I passed by just now, I mentioned a few words to me and asked me to prevaricate." Tong Jiu collected the scattered chess pieces on the chess table, took those chess pieces from Ji Lan's hand, and said, "Your family's It's really messy with the heads of several houses, everything will be messed up."

"They mess with them, and you don't mess with them, that's all right." Ji Lan took out a post from the small drawer on the table, handed it to Tong Jiu, and said, "Later, a few bosses in the Xinglin world are going to Dinner at Fengyiju. In previous years, I would not go to this kind of entertainment. This year is different, this year our Jiahui Zhengsheng will open a general store in the capital. Therefore, it is still necessary for me to meet them."

"I've been busy for a whole year. It's nothing to eat and drink tea. Just go." Tong Jiu closed the invitation and said, "I won't go with you, lest people watch the meal and take it with you." When the family members come, it is inevitable to make fun of us in our hearts."

"It's best if you think like this." Ji Lan nodded and said, "When I was planning to go just now, I was still thinking, how should I tell you."

"The people from Dazhengchang in Chengde Mansion will go back tomorrow, and I will practice it for them later. If I leave early here, I will go to Fengyiju to pick you up, okay?" Tong Jiu shook Ji Lan hand, and sighed, "Oh, I really don't want to be separated from you for a moment."

Ji Lan pinched her cheek and said, "That's not good, you'll get tired of it after a long time."

In the afternoon, the servant was asked to hitch a car, and sisters Hua Jingfu and Fucha accompanied Ji Lan to Fengyiju for a banquet.Tong Jiu and Shen Jianping took Chengde Mansion Dazhengchang's cashier and other people casually to the street to buy some Beijing specialties and go home for the New Year.

When Ji Lan got off the carriage, he happened to see Qi Jia Muyun get off from the carriage at Healing Hall opposite.Ji Lan stood still at the door, stroking the finger on his thumb calmly, Mu Yun also saw Ji Lan at this time, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"In such a cold day, it's rare that my sister-in-law actually came here in person." Mu Yun walked over with a smile, and spoke first.

"Grandma Guan, I'm afraid I can't stand your 'sister-in-law'." Ji Lan also smiled, and said, "I, the Fucha family, had correspondence with Han Jiuye when I was a widow. All these pickle incidents have been brought to the clan's residence. Mistress Guan, don't you know about it?"

"Hey, you're here to ask the teacher for your crime." Mu Yun nodded, and said righteously, "I'm not afraid to tell you that the matter between you and that Han Jiuye was caused by the lax-mouthed maid who accompanied me that day. .There are some old stories, if I really want to go out and talk about them. I'm afraid you won't be here today? What do you think, Grandma Han Jiu!"

"Oh, Grandma Han Jiu—." Ji Lan covered her mouth and laughed, "You are really the first person to call me that. Our family, Lu Qi, likes to call me 'Jiu Niang' on weekdays." '."

Mu Yun's face turned pale, and he said in a cold voice, "Master Fucha, I respect you for being my sister-in-law in the past. You can't do anything but kill someone, so why are you so aggressive?"

Ji Lan stopped laughing, repeated her words, and said, "Yeah, killing people is nothing more than nodding your head, so why are you being so aggressive." After speaking, she turned and entered Fengyiju.

After the meal, Ji Lan and Mu Yun also drank some wine.After the mats were dispersed, Ji Lan only asked for a private room, and called Mu Yun to sit down for a while, but didn't go back right away.

After the buddy served a new pot of tea, he backed out. Ji Lan looked at Mu Yun who was facing him with a dull expression, and sighed.He took out a jewelry box and handed it to Mu Yun, saying, "This is yours, you can take it back." He drank some warm tea while talking.

Mu Yun opened it, and it was a jade handle. He couldn't help stroking it with his fingers, but he smiled self-deprecatingly.

Ji Lan took off the jade wrench from his thumb, put it on the case, and pointed, "Many things are just like this jade. Jade is still the old material, but it can't return to its original appearance."

"I really want to go to Horqin with her, I really want to go to Horqin with her—" Mu Yun murmured, tears fell down, so he wiped his head and tilted his head. I went, but I was sobbing.

Ji Lan picked up the jade wrench, put it on, and said, "I am an outsider after all. But compared to when we first met, I hope she is what she is now. Mu Yun, compare your hearts to each other, no matter what the reason is. If it was back then, How much pain would you feel if she treated you like this?"

"That day, I made an appointment with her to meet at Shili Pavilion in the north of the city and go out to Horqin together." Mu Yun wiped away his tears and said, "Later, on the way out of the city, I was taken back by Ama. They found I wrapped the account books of the Neitong Mansion and threatened them that if I don’t marry the Guan family, they will hand over the accounts to the government.”

He said with a bleak self-deprecating smile, "I agreed and got married too. But they still handed over the account book." After hearing this, Ji Lan frowned and didn't say anything.

Mu Yun took off the complicated jewelry on his wrist, rolled up his wide sleeves, and stretched out his hand to Ji Lan, only to see shocking reddish-brown scars stretching across his wrist.

Mu Yun smiled and said, "At the beginning, I wanted to die. But now, I want to live, and I want to let the entire Guan family be buried with me. One day, she will know that I did not betray her!" After speaking, she stood up and said, "I am very happy too." I like her the way she is now."

Mu Yun lifted the curtain and went downstairs, just in time to meet Tong Jiu who came up the stairs with his hem in his hands, they were startled when they saw each other.Mu Yun smiled and Tong Jiu nodded politely, but neither of them spoke.

When Tong Jiu entered the private room, Ji Lan sat there worriedly, her face was not very good-looking, which made Tong Jiu's heart tense, and walked over while looking at her, saying, "What's the matter, did you eat wine?"

"Oh, it's just a bit of a mess, socializing." Ji Lan shook his head, got up and said, "Let's go back."

At the door, Tong Jiu was about to get on the horse, but was stopped by Ji Lan, and said, "Come with me in the car, it's cold outside."

"Aji, when I went upstairs, I ran into Jiuniang." After getting into the car, Tong Jiu saw that Jilan was not in high spirits, and asked uncertainly, "Did you eat together?"

Ji Lan nodded, snuggled into Tong Jiu's arms, and said, "Lu Qi, I want you to take a concubine."

"Huh?" Tong Jiu stroked Jilan's forehead after being shocked, and said, "I didn't drink too much, and I started talking about it." As he spoke, he knocked on the car several times, and said to the driver outside "Hurry up, Ma'am is having a drink."

"Lu Qi, if one day I have something with a man, will you dislike me?" Ji Lan asked Tong Jiu and looked up.

Tong Jiu sighed, anxiously took off the veil from Ji Lan's armpit, wiped her forehead, and took her back into her arms.

He muttered dissatisfiedly, "Next time there is such a situation, I will be there. I don't know how much they fed you, but they started talking nonsense."

With the bumping of the carriage, Ji Lan grabbed Tong Jiu's front button, stroked his heart, and said sadly, "Lu Qi, I feel uncomfortable in my heart."

Tong Jiu caressed her back again and again, and said, "It doesn't matter, you lean on me, close your eyes, and we will be there in a while." He patted her lightly, and said, "Aji, I know about Lao Qi , makes you feel awkward. But don't say I can't marry her, even if I can, I already have you in my heart, I only want you, and I don't want anyone else. "

Ji Lan nodded in Tong Jiu's arms and said, "Me too."

Back at the mansion, Ji Lan asked Tong Jiu to go to the front cabinet to get her sobering soup, and then called Hong Xiao in, and told Hong Xiao what Mu Yun and herself had just said.

"Well, although it's the masters' business, we grew up together after all. Without her words, although I hate her, I'm not like Brother Jiu, who just treats her as a passerby. But now, knowing this, and thinking about her, I feel sorry for her——" Hong Xiao choked on her sobs.

Hong Xiao instructed Ji Lan, and said firmly, "Brother Jiu is feeling better right now, we must never talk to her about these things—"

"Is Madam better?" Tong Jiu and Fucha sisters were talking outside, Hong Xiao lowered her head and stopped talking.

Tong Jiu carefully came in with a bowl of hangover soup, saw Ji Lan sitting there, and asked, "Are you still feeling bad? Just lie down."

"How to drink soup while lying down." Ji Lan looked at the soup in Tong Jiu's hand, stretched out his hand to take it in a funny way, and said softly, "I'll do it myself."

Tong Jiu watched her drink the soup, and said, "It's the Chinese New Year. Tomorrow, I plan to send some medicinal materials to the chief manager of the palace. In the afternoon, I met him on the street. He said that Bo Mu of the Guan family Er, because Dagula lost the tribute and failed to do anything, the prince was angered, and Chen Jingyi was sent to investigate thoroughly."

After Ji Lan finished drinking, he handed the empty bowl to Hong Xiao, wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "How can we always send medicinal materials over there? His father is sick in bed. Tomorrow, you go ahead and pick an older doctor and lead them personally." Please take a pulse from the family to see how the disease is going."

Tong Jiu tucked the quilt for her, sat down beside Kang Yan'er and said, "So, this person, don't do anything unconscionable. It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. The Guan family thought we were so easy to bully, I Is it worthless to suffer through the board?"

He snorted coldly and said, "This time, I want to see what kind of fate this Bomuer can end up with. Is it possible to get away with it after a meal."

Ji Lan took Tong Jiu's hand and said, "I'm leaving tomorrow, don't forget to pass some bank notes to the Chief Manager."
