[Red Chamber] Jia Huan's Army

Chapter 74 [2st more]

The historian has put a lot of effort into this flower viewing banquet.When Tanchun and Daiyu were introduced to the historian with their servants, they saw the well-arranged garden, among the flowers, tea tables and embroidered piers scattered everywhere.It took a lot of thought to think that several people can chat together in groups without losing elegance and privacy.

Tanchun and Daiyu came quite late, and many female relatives had already come to the garden, talking together in twos and threes.Tanchun glanced over, and found that most of them were old families with some friendship with the four major families, and there were very few of them like Daiyu.The two looked at each other, did not speak, but went forward to meet the two historians, Mrs. Hou, according to the rules.

In the capacity of Tanchun, the two historians' wives didn't dare to trust her, they didn't accept the gift, but hurriedly helped Tanchun up, and politely said: "This is a shame for us."

Tanchun doesn't like historians. Every time he listens to Shi Xiangyun tell Mother Jia about his experience in historians, Tanchun is not ashamed of their deeds. Now, with the attitude of the two wives towards him, he can use flattery Tanchun was even more unhappy when he said that he ignored Lin Daiyu who was standing with him.It's just that Tanchun is used to being a good person, and naturally she doesn't show it on her face. She just smiled and said: "It should be. Since we parted last year, I haven't seen Sister Xiangyun for a long time. Sister Lin and I are both in a panic. Today I came here to see Sister Xiangyun, but we are bothering you."

The two ladies waved their hands with a smile, and said, "You don't need to be humble, this is Xiangyun."

At this time, Shi Xiangyun was entertaining the little sisters with his cousin, saying that they were entertaining, but in fact most of these girls were on good terms with her cousin, and he was just a display on the other side.She was just standing around bored, when she saw Tanchun and Daiyu walking in hand in hand, she hastily greeted her cousin, and walked up to Tanchun with her skirt in hand .

Mrs. Zhongjinghou, who was greeting Tanchun, looked at Shi Xiangyun's reckless appearance, her face was not very good-looking, and Mrs. Baoninghou, who was standing aside, smoothed things over with a smile: "Speaking of which, we, Xiangyun, are also thinking about the two What about the girl. You see, the little sister hastily left behind and came here."

Tanchun pursed his lips and smiled, pulled Xiangyun who became well-behaved when he saw his aunt, and said, "In that case, then we won't bother the two ladies."

The two wives shook their heads quickly and said, "What's the point of interrupting, we're too happy to have you young girls talking to us. But that's okay, we won't bother you little sisters talking privately."

After saying that, the two ladies walked away, and before leaving, they even winked at Shi Xiangyun.Tanchun could see clearly from the side, but acted as if he didn't see anything.

After the two wives left, Xiang Yun dared to pat his chest and said, "It's lucky that you are here, otherwise I will be punished again."

The three of them found a secluded place, sat on the embroidered pier, and chatted casually.

"Your family has always kept a low profile, why did you organize such a big flower viewing feast today?" Daiyu never liked crowds, and there were so many little girls in the garden, and there was a lot of laughter for a while, which made Daiyu very uncomfortable.She frowned and asked.

Shi Xiangyun curled his lips and complained: "It's not that my cousin is old enough to say that he wants to marry the daughter of the royal family, and the purpose of holding this Lao Shizi banquet is to see each other more."

"Why bother calling for so many foils?" Daiyu was also very displeased with the historian's style.

Xiangyun looked around for no one, and then whispered: "Actually, it's more than that. When I followed my aunt to see the old lady, I heard the old lady tell my aunt to invite you, saying that after you leave the mansion, you will be with Jia. The government is not close anymore, take this opportunity to get close."

Tanchun couldn't help frowning when she heard this, she didn't know that the old lady was so persistent.She is about to get married, if there is a disturbance at this banquet, everyone will not look good, and it will even implicate Nan'an Palace.It's just that it seems unreasonable to just sit down and leave now.

Sure enough, the three of them didn't talk for a while, and there was a commotion at the door. It turned out that the old lady of Jia's mansion came here with her granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law.According to seniority, Mother Jia is the tallest, and these cheerful little girls who were playing before came over to greet her respectfully.When Tanchun saw him, he had no choice but to go forward with Daiyu and Xiangyun.

Xiangyun was still as heartless as ever, when he saw Jia Mu who was always nice to him, he smiled and went forward and said coquettishly: "Old lady, Xiangyun hasn't seen you for a long time."

Mother Jia patted Xiangyun's hair with a smile, and said, "Xiangyun is still filial, so come back with us and stay for a while."

When Xiangyun heard this, he clapped his hands and applauded.Then Mother Jia looked at Tanchun and Daiyu who were following behind to say hello.

"Come here and show grandma." Mother Jia beckoned, then took one with each hand, and said with a smile, "You look good. This way, I, the old lady, can feel at ease. You too, you will be separated when you leave the mansion, and you will be disgusted." I, an old lady, have nothing to talk about with young people!"

Tan Chun froze with a smile on his face, and said: "Look at what you said, how dare a junior dare to have sex with the old lady? It's really busy recently, so I don't have time to come. I hope the old lady will understand."

Jia's mother was not angry, but she pulled Tanchun and Daiyu to talk for a long time, and asked Xichun to chat more with the two sisters.Afterwards, Xichun said to Tanchun: "The old lady has been talking about it for many days at home. If I want to make the family happy, the previous one should not agree to it. What happened? I don't have to be a cover. It's better to have everyone It’s good to leave early.”

Because Jia's mother was present, all the little girls around were too embarrassed to leave, so they had to sit by the side.It's just that Jia Mu pulled Tanchun and the two of them to talk, and didn't pay attention for a while.At this time, the girl from the Wang family was not happy.This girl from the Wang family is Wang Ziteng's legitimate daughter, and she will soon become the wife of Baoning Hou's legitimate son.Today's banquet was originally prepared for her, but Cheng Yaojin was caught halfway, and the limelight was snatched away by others. She, who was spoiled and held in the palm of her parents' hands since she was a child, was naturally unhappy in her heart.But fortunately, he was still a little rational, knowing that he hadn't settled down. Although he was unhappy, he didn't lose his temper on the spot, it was just that he had a bad face.

Mrs. Bao Ninghou has been paying attention to the performance of the Wang family's first daughter, and she is a little satisfied when she sees this.Although she is a little immature, she still has the general knowledge. Only such a girl can be the head of the house in the future.

Although the Wang family girl endured it at the time, she couldn't help ridiculing Tanchun and Daiyu afterwards.

"Some people are lucky. Although I don't have much beauty or talent, I just rely on my family and luck to become a noble lady. I just don't know if this person can sit firmly."

Mother Jia talked for a long time, and she was naturally tired, so she let the girls go to play separately.Just as Tanchun and Daiyu walked away, they heard the Wang family's prostitute talking to the girls around her, and when she spoke, she glanced at Tanchun intentionally.Her voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for those around her to hear clearly.

Tanchun stopped in his tracks, glanced at the other party with a half-smile, but didn't respond to her.

Seeing Tanchun's expression, Wang's daughter-in-law was furious and asked, "What do you mean?"

Tanchun smiled and said, "I just want to remind Miss Wang that your marriage seems to have not been settled yet. If today's incident spreads to other people's ears..."

The Wang family's daughter said angrily: "Just because you still want to threaten me? My father is the inspector of the nine provinces, and he also holds the title of county earl under the command of Du Taiwei. He will be promoted soon after returning to Beijing. Compared with a first-class uncle, no matter what, it is enough to make you unable to eat and walk around!"

Tanchun was taken aback, if the other party didn't mention Wang Ziteng, it would be fine, even Tanchun had heard about what Wang Ziteng did in the inner court, and now it was mentioned by the other party, she was really annoyed in her heart.So Tan Chun sneered and said: "I don't know anything else, but the daughter's family in the backyard never agrees with each other, just relying on the reason that father and brother are oppressed by their official positions."

After hearing this, Daiyu obviously also thought of Wang Ziteng's frame of Jia Huan, so she sneered from the side, "It turns out that the Wang family raised girls in this way. Today I understand."

As she said that, Daiyu pulled Tanchun, and said: "Sister, I have already spent a lot of time here. If I go back later, I will teach the nuns to talk. Let's go."

Tanchun also felt that today was really boring, so he nodded in agreement.The two bid farewell again and again, and finally left Shi's mansion regardless of Mrs. Shi Jia's persuasion.

Not long after the two left, the conversation between Miss Wang and the two of them reached Mrs. Shi Jia's ears, and this marriage was naturally so scandalous.Since the two families are family friends, naturally they can't say anything hurtful. Mrs. Bao Ninghou just shirked and said: "Sister, I asked an eminent monk to settle the matter. The two children's horoscopes seem to be auspicious, but they are actually hidden secrets. For two Children think about it, let’s forget about it.”

Now that the other party said that, and it was intentional, and it was not brought to the table, so it didn't hurt the face of the Wang family and the reputation of the girl of the Wang family, this matter really can't be broken.Wang Ziteng and his wife had no choice but to break their teeth and swallow their blood. They gritted their teeth and let it go. They had to quickly find another official family with a better personal relationship to make an appointment for their daughter.As a result, there was obviously a rift between Shi Wang's family, and Wang Ziteng and his wife hated Baoningbo's mansion even more in their hearts.

Wang Ziteng held the letter from his first wife in his hand, and his heart was full of anger, but he had to suppress it.He called his confidant in a low voice, and ordered: "Tell the other party, see me tomorrow."
