Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

After Jia Amnesty said those words, the atmosphere froze in an instant, and no one else dared to speak. Mother Jia glanced at him and said,

"Today is a good day for your second brother, can't you stop and stop?"

"Calm down?" Jia She said strangely, "Why don't I stop, am I congratulating my second brother? Congratulations to my second brother for finally taking off the 20-year-old Mr. Mao's hat, right?"

As he spoke, he bowed his hands to Jia Zheng, under the filial piety, he was the eldest brother, even if Jia Zheng didn't like it, he had to forcefully smile back.

Jia Zheng didn't dare to answer him. Mother Jia scolded him when she saw him insulting her own younger brother like this, "Did you say that about your younger brother? You are unfaithful and unfilial!"

Jia Amnesty got a surge of courage from nowhere, and cursed, "Who is the one who is disloyal and unfilial, and the doves occupy the magpie's nest!" After speaking, he waved his sleeves and walked away!

Mother Jia was so angry that she dropped a teacup, no one else dared to say more, only Jia Zheng consoled her carefully, and Mother Jia gradually calmed down her anger, which made her even more dissatisfied with Jia Amnesty.

Chen looked at the loving mother and the son, and did not go out. She knew that Jia She was worthless and worthless, and even if she planned all kinds of plans, she was not capable of destroying herself, so she didn't count on him anymore.

As for Jia Zheng, he might as well stay at home if he doesn't have the skills. Now that he's gone out, he doesn't have any capable staff to help him. .

Because of this farce, the atmosphere at dinner time was also stiff and indifferent. After all, this was the first time that Jia Shen put Jia Mu's partiality on the surface. In this way, the family banquet ended unevenly.

On August [-], Jia Zheng got up and went on a business trip.

But after Jia Zheng left, Baoyu and the unbridled wild horse, and the Erha who had a good time, indulged wantonly in the Grand View Garden, wasting time, because most of the leisure time in the garden was boring, Tanchun started a poetry club, All the sisters and sister-in-law were invited to come over to discuss the big event, and the sisters readily agreed.

I don't know where Jia Baoyu got two white begonias that were in full bloom, so this society took over the Begonia Society, and everyone took another name, the rest is the same as in the Red Mansion, but Daiyu doesn't live in Xiaoxiang now. Because she loves the nobleness of bamboo very much, and because Yuan Zhen of the Tang Dynasty wrote "Bingbi is towering in the cold night, Xiao Shaofeng is blowing in the day", she named it Bingbi Fairy.

Jia Lu is especially not good at poetry, and begged desperately not to do poetry, but to be a non-staff member, and to leave paintings for everyone, so she gave up.

They wrote poems about the time limit for a stick of incense, but she didn't care about this when she painted. She printed everyone's demeanor on the paper as soon as she picked up the pen, except for Begonia, the sisters, and the maids around the sisters. If it looks good, draw it too.

Sister Bao was followed by a pretty girl, she didn't look like a maid, she had a little rouge between her brows, she was watching everyone composing poems with envy, and she moved her fingers, as if she was planning something on her clothes.

Jia Lu paused her pen, and asked Jiao Qian softly, "The one with the mole between the eyebrows is Xiangling?"

Jiao Qian glanced at her and replied, "It's her. She's in Uncle Xue's house, and she won't go into the garden, so the girl doesn't recognize her, and she doesn't know why Miss Zibao called her now." Come in."

Jia Lu thought about it, and asked again, "How old is Xue Pan?"

Jiao Qian shook her head, and replied, "This slave girl doesn't know, she seems to be a year or two older than Miss Bao, maybe she's seventeen or eighteen now?"

Jia Lu murmured, "Then it's time to get married!" If Jia Amnesty is married, then her hard life may be coming soon!

For a moment, Jiao Qian couldn't hear what Jia Lu said, and asked, "Girl, what are you talking about?"

Jia Lu came back to her senses and said with a smile, "I was thinking, maybe the shopkeeper of Fugui Embroidery Village is going to enter the mansion again?"

"That's right. It's almost September now, and the girl's autumn clothes are also ready. Plus, she has to pay the bills last month. I'm afraid it will take just a few days."

Jia Lu nodded and said, "When she comes, let her come to see me, I have something to tell her."

Jossie complied.

This time, the Begonia Poetry Club rated Baochai's poems as subtle and profound, and was the leader. Although Daiyu's poems were graceful and graceful, others had no objections.

The next day, Jia Lu had an order, and the new shopkeeper of Fugui Embroidery Village didn't dare to delay, so he came to the house the next day. Since the big and small kings were suppressed last time, the shopkeeper of Fugui Embroidery Village has changed.

This time the shopkeeper is a female family member, who was originally an embroiderer, but she accidentally hurt her finger and couldn't do it anymore. Because she is capable, she knows needlework embroidery and can speak well. Not only did she hurt her finger, she was not kicked out , Instead, he was promoted to be the shopkeeper in charge.

So I am more grateful to the girl.

"Girl, you have brought ten sets of autumn clothes this year, and this one is..."

Just as she was introducing, Jia Lu stopped her and said, "Wait a minute, don't be too busy introducing these things. Anyway, the clothes are also ready, and you can't throw them away. I have something to ask you."

The shopkeeper bowed and asked, "I don't know what orders the girl has?"

"I heard that you all seem to go to the south to purchase, don't you?"

The shopkeeper said with a smile,

"Exactly, the silk in the north is no more delicate than the silk in the south, and there are more patterns in the south, so every year our shop will go to the south several times. We have our family's industry in Jinling, Yangzhou, Hangzhou and other places. Good collection."

Jia Lu's eyes lit up, "Really, our family still has property in the south?"

Even Nanny Qian on the other side also laughed when she heard that, and said,

"Girl, you are really joking. In our court, whoever has money and power will not go to the south to buy property. The weather there is good and the soil is good, but it is much more expensive than buying property in the north. Another thing is that our Jia family is originally Isn’t it right for people from the South to leave behind some industries?”

Jia Lu laughed and said,

"That's good, it happens to be cheaper, shopkeeper, I think that in Gusu Prefecture in the south, there was a famous person named Zhen Shiyin a few years ago. Next to their house is a gourd temple. Decades ago, their house After losing his daughter, the Gourd Temple caught fire again, and even burned down their house, and then Zhen Shiyin and his wife went to his wife's house, who seems to be surnamed Feng, you should ask someone to find out, if you find it, and Bring it back to the capital, and say that there is news about their girl, if you can't find it, forget it over there."

The shopkeeper was suspicious and asked,

"Miss, where did you get this news? It has a name but its location is unclear?"

Jia Lu said mysteriously, "Don't worry about it, just go and inquire anyway, it will be beneficial to you!"

Helpless, the shopkeeper agreed.

Even Jiao Qian, Qian Momo and others looked at her mysteriously and were very curious, but they couldn't figure it out. Only Li Momo knew that this girl in their family was a little different since she was a child. It's true, I'm afraid it should be the missing girl of Zhen Shiyin.

Jia Lu didn't know Nanny Li's guess, so she dismissed the shopkeeper, and some people came back and forth, saying that it was Miss Shi who came and asked them to go and meet her.
