[Red Chamber] Jia Huan's Army
Chapter 78
Because of time and money, even if Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others wanted to hold a family-saving banquet in a grand manner, after repeated consideration, they had to give up.Just because there is no need to rebuild the Provincial Courtyard, the entire Jia Mansion strives to make everything extravagant, so the restoration of the Rongguo Mansion plus the purchase of theater troupes and various decorations is enough to empty out the small savings of the Rongguo Mansion.As for the money borrowed from relatives, it is determined not to pay it back.
"Anyway, there is no money in the public account." Wang Xifeng sighed, and said, "If you want me to say, these days are getting worse every day, you might as well find a serious job, and it's easy to ask for an outside job." .”
Jia Lian also shook his head: "How is this so easy? It's better to live one day at a time."
As he spoke, he winked his eyes and said: "There is no money in the public account, and the private houses of each family are quite sufficient. Especially your good aunt."
Wang Xifeng poked Jia Lian's head angrily, and said, "Look at how promising you are! This idea can control your private money for the rest of your life?
Hearing what Sister Feng said, Jia Lian's mind became active, thinking that his official career would be difficult, so he took the money in his hand as capital, and urged Xue Pan, who had always been a fool with a lot of money, to explore business avenues. up.
This is another story.And now, the Jia family hastened and rushed, and finally finished all the preparations as scheduled. Although it was a bit hasty, it finally met the expectations of Jia's mother and others.
While Jia's family was busy preparing for Yuanchun's family visit, Baoningbo Mansion was also methodically preparing for Tanchun's marriage.
"Don't be so tired these days, isn't everything already done?" Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan, who was turning blue, and wrapped his arms around Jia Huan's shoulders distressedly, then handed over a gift list and said, "I will give you these things." It has already been ordered to be sent to your house, it is the makeup from the empress dowager."
Jia Huan looked at the gift list in his hand and said in surprise, "So many? I'm afraid there are still yours?"
"Half and half." Mo Lian didn't hide anything, and said, "I don't know how to let the Empress Dowager know about the affairs of your family. She has no daughters and always favors girls more, especially one as smart as your sister. It was just a whim. Don't worry about it."
After listening to Mo Lian's explanation, Jia Huan felt relieved, and then he couldn't stop pressing his temples with his hands, and said, "How can I rest? The more tense I get at this time, I always feel that something went wrong. , and then I have to go back and check it twice before I can rest assured. In the past ten years, there is only one chance for this kind of wedding in the uncle's house, so how can it not be successful?"
Seeing Jia Huan's tired look, Mo Lian reached out to help him press the acupuncture points to relieve his fatigue.While massaging Jia Huan, he said softly: "You are too nervous, how dare those servants make mistakes?"
"Hmph," Jia Huan was pressed into a drowsy state by Mo Lian, and when he relaxed, he even spoke lazily, "No matter what you say, suppress the momentum of the Jia family. Keep them in awe My mother-in-law returns home to visit relatives."
Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan's narrow-minded look, and really wanted to go forward and squeeze her.But because the time and place were wrong, he could only hold back a smile and said, "You are the only one who is careful and thoughtful."
Jia Huan accidentally said what was in his heart, and he felt a little uncomfortable, so he blinked his eyes and changed the subject: "Actually, it's not just about this matter. Isn't the King of Nan'an back? He's pestering me every day these days." It's really annoying to bring all kinds of gadgets to my sister. In addition, my mother and sister chatter more and more as their wedding day approaches. In the whole house, only Ruirui is the least annoying."
Seeing Jia Huan's gentle expression when he mentioned Wang Rui, Mo Lian replied in displeasure, "The little brat will just rest easy in front of you."
Jia Huan knew that the two of them were always at odds, but he smiled and didn't answer.
The two talked for a while and then left separately. Recently, apart from Jia Huan who was busy with Tanchun's marriage, Mo Lian was also busy with government affairs.There will be no problems on the northern border for a while, but the pirates in the south have begun to be dishonest again.He has to send more people to keep an eye on it, so as not to repeat the mistake of Datong being besieged and caught off guard.
Jia Huan had just complained to King Mo Lian, and when they met again the next day, he saw Geng Yuan looking at him with resentment on his face: "Where did you deceive brother-in-law like this?"
Ever since the marriage was settled, King Nan'an's feeling was far from the time when he was strategizing and taking the lead in the battlefield.So much so that every time Jia Huan saw such a King of Nan'an, he would get a bunch of goosebumps.
"You can't talk nonsense about this." Jia Huan shook his head, as if what you could do with the young master, really made people itch with hatred.
Geng Yuanan resisted the urge to step forward and beat him up, and said angrily: "Why did I talk nonsense? Didn't you sue? I'm an idle prince who came back to divorce, and I was dragged to the palace for a day of discussion today. South China Sea situation."
Jia Huan looked at the other party's face of grief and indignation, laughed "puchi", and said, "Who told you this? I mean don't talk nonsense about the word 'brother-in-law', it's still a few days away, don't Let my sister's reputation suffer."
Geng Yuan threw him on his back, regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones, he rushed forward and began to wrestle with Jia Huan.Jia Huan didn't show weakness, and went forward, the two fought inextricably.
"Happy!" The two stopped at the same time, Geng Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "My boy, you are getting leaner."
Jia Huan was still breathing calmly, and after hearing Geng Yuan's words, he rolled his eyes angrily, and said, "Obviously you are thinking about getting married every day, so you have regressed."
Geng Yuan was so angry with him that he had no choice but to stop talking.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was Tanchun's big day to get married.Two days ago, all of Tanchun's dowry had been delivered to Nan'an Prince's Mansion, and the full dowry really made the people watching the excitement envious, and it also made some people want to watch jokes.
Today's Baoningbo Mansion is full of red silk and red lights, which is very festive, but it is a bit out of tune with the parting atmosphere.
Tanchun was pulled up early in the morning to dress up.The wedding dress is the prince's official dress, and the phoenix coronet and Xiapei are all exquisite and gorgeous, and after they are neatly dressed, they have to show their faces.Generally, those who preside over the show are all blessed people with six relatives and children.Originally, with Jia Huan's contacts, it was difficult to find such a candidate. Fortunately, Lin Ruhai invited a lot of old nuns and sisters to help him find a kind-hearted middle-aged lady. Coincidentally, this person is exactly General Feng Tang's first wife, Feng Ziying's mother.This lady met several times before Tanchun left Jia's mansion. At that time, she liked Tanchun's straightforward temperament very much, and even considered the possibility of Tanchun marrying her son.It's just because of Tanchun's status as a concubine and the fact that there are many dudes in the Jia family.Who would have expected that Tanchun would be in such a situation now.
"Tan girl's skin is good," Mrs. Feng looked at Tan Chun's fair face with a smile, and praised, "It's just as smooth if you don't open it. The little girl is really incomparable to old ladies like us."
After hearing this, Tanchun temporarily relieved the tension in his heart, and said with a smile: "You are exaggerating too much. If you go out now, who would not say that you are in the prime of your youth?"
"Small mouth is still so good at coaxing people." Mrs. Feng smiled and pursed her lips.
Here a group of people circled around the bride, while Jia Huan over there could only be in a hurry, even if he greeted the guests, he was a little distracted.Feng Ziying followed her mother to join in the fun. Looking at Jia Huan's appearance, he laughed and said, "What's wrong with you? It's just a gift from Uncle Baoning, why do you act like you're married?"
Jia Huan snorted coldly and said, "What do you know?"
"Why don't I understand?" Feng Ziying blinked her eyes and said proudly, "The first few sisters above me are all carried on the sedan chair by me."
"You are heartless." Jia Huan gave Feng Ziying a blank look.
"Hmph, I don't have the same knowledge as you." As he said that, he asked curiously, "Are you so anxious because you are afraid that the Jia family will send someone to make trouble?"
"Don't you know that the Jia family is busy preparing for family visits today, so they don't have time to take care of us?"
"That's not necessarily the case," Feng Ziying said, shaking her fingers, "I've heard that the Concubine Xiande went back to visit relatives today. The Jia family originally invited a lot of people, but they got together because of their marriage with your mansion. Because of this, many people rejected the Jia family's invitation, saying that they will not disturb your family and your mother's family relationship. You haven't seen their faces."
As soon as Jia Huan heard the interest, he asked, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"
"I happened to meet Baoyu when I was looking for it."
"Are you still looking for Baoyu?" Jia Huan looked at Feng Ziying suspiciously, and said, "Since what happened to me, haven't you been ordered not to associate with Jia's family?"
"It's okay to find Baoyu, anyway, he doesn't care about everything. It can't deceive anyone."
Jia Huan has always looked down on Baoyu, especially after being frightened by himself and falling ill, he has no good impression of him. Hearing this, he just sneered and didn't speak.
Not long after the noon banquet, King Nan'an's welcoming team arrived at the gate of Bo's mansion, and there was a burst of firecrackers and smoke everywhere, making it very lively.Jia Huan was waiting for King Nan'an at the door, but he saw a wild goose on Wangniang's plate who went ahead, and he couldn't laugh or cry for a while.
"Tsk tsk," Feng Ziying leaned next to Jia Huan, and said, "The King of Nan'an really has a heart. Don't most people use geese instead of wild geese? I don't know where he got them."
Jia Huan saw that King Nan'an was blocked outside the door and made things difficult, so he nodded in relief, walked into the inner courtyard, and prepared to recite Tanchun himself and come out.
"Huan'er," Tan Chun was leaning against Aunt Zhao and saying something, Aunt Zhao pretended to be happy, but the corners of her eyes were wet, and the tears in Tan Chun's eyes were about to drip.They were talking when they suddenly saw Jia Huan coming in, smelling like firecrackers, Tanchun asked nervously, "Are you here?"
Jia Huan nodded and said: "I've been stopped outside, I guess it's almost here, I'll carry you out."
Tanchun couldn't help but shed tears at this time, and said with a trembling voice: "Well. From now on, I won't be in the mansion, so you can serve snacks yourself. Help your mother more, so that the slaves don't bully the master. You should also pay attention to your health..."
Jia Huan had heard these words a long time ago, but Tanchun couldn't help asking again.Jia Huan wasn't impatient at all, Tanchun and himself were considered close now, and he didn't usually feel that he was going to marry. He felt very reluctant, and naturally hoped that the time would be delayed as long as possible.
On the contrary, Tanchun came back to his senses, wiped away his tears, and said with a forced smile, "It's not like I won't see you again anyway, see what I'm worried about."
Jia Huan and Aunt Zhao nodded one after another and said, "There are still three dynasties to come back."
Speaking of which, Jia Huan squatted down and carried Tan Chun firmly on his back, and Aunt Zhao put the hijab on Tan Chun herself.
King Nan'an managed to get rid of the people Jia Huan sent to block the door. When he looked up, he saw the bride on Jia Huan's back. After taking over the bride, he was stopped by the servants who followed him, "Master, this is against the rules."
Geng Yuan paused helplessly, and had to wait for Jia Huan to carry the bride on the sedan chair.In the end, she watched helplessly as Wang Rui hugged Jia Huan and stopped the bride.And Tanchun also took his mother Aunt Zhao's hand, and the mother and daughter cried bitterly.
Even though he knew it was a custom, Geng Yuan couldn't help feeling distressed and irritable. He shook off the servants who were pulling him, walked forward, picked up the bride from Jia Huan's back, and looked at the bride. The terrified Aunt Zhao promised: "Since she is my son-in-law's first wife, my son-in-law must treat her well and never let her regret marrying my son-in-law. In the future, as long as you want, you can come to my son-in-law's house to meet each other at any time." , or go home and stay for a day or two."
Then, with everyone stunned, they carried the bride into the sedan chair and walked away.Xi Niang was the first to react, and said loudly: "Get up the sedan chair."
Only then did the welcoming team return to the Nan'an Palace in a bustling manner.
"Anyway, there is no money in the public account." Wang Xifeng sighed, and said, "If you want me to say, these days are getting worse every day, you might as well find a serious job, and it's easy to ask for an outside job." .”
Jia Lian also shook his head: "How is this so easy? It's better to live one day at a time."
As he spoke, he winked his eyes and said: "There is no money in the public account, and the private houses of each family are quite sufficient. Especially your good aunt."

While Jia's family was busy preparing for Yuanchun's family visit, Baoningbo Mansion was also methodically preparing for Tanchun's marriage.
"Don't be so tired these days, isn't everything already done?" Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan, who was turning blue, and wrapped his arms around Jia Huan's shoulders distressedly, then handed over a gift list and said, "I will give you these things."
