The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Mrs. Wang has a stroke, and Jia's mother and Jia Zheng discuss to celebrate Baoyu's marriage.Fortunately, Mother Jia had already told Li Wan that she was going to prepare for Baoyu's big wedding this year, and all the things in the mansion were ready, only a small courtyard was hastily tidied up for the wedding.Historians have already prepared Shi Xiangyun's dowry and other things.Also, the envoy of King Lu had already come to Beijing. Hearing about Jia Baoyu's literary name, he bought a lot of things temporarily.The Rongguo Mansion was surprised when they got the dowry list.

According to the three media and six certificates, he hurriedly went through it, and picked the nearest auspicious day in the general book, and Shi Xiangyun was going to marry on the fifth day after Mrs. Wang had a stroke.

The day before the wedding, Jia Huan strolled to see Baoyu, seeing that he was still in a daze, so he ordered Sheyue to go out, sat opposite him and said, "Second elder brother can't understand how such a trivial matter can make my wife mad."

Baoyu raised his head in an instant.

Jia Huan said: "Today there are Japanese pirates destroying my city, slaughtering my people, and plundering my territory. I have captured a few of them alive with all my strength. They escaped under the knife with their remaining lives, and the people who had children, grandchildren, wives and daughters died in their hands cursed with tears around them, holding sacrificial offerings and waiting at the entrance of the vegetable market to kill the enemy. Suddenly a scholar rushed into the crowd and cried to the beheading officer: Your Excellency , These Japanese pirates are also very miserable, their hometown is barren and there is no food to satisfy their hunger, so they have no choice but to come to our court to kill."

Baoyu heard a bit inexplicable and a bit indignant at the beginning, but finally realized what it meant, and shook his head and said, "How can Jin Chuan'er compare with Japanese pirates!"

Jia Huan said: "Jin Chuan'er and his wife have a deep hatred, just like the hatred of a country and a family. There are only two things in the wife's whole world. You, master. Jin Chuan'er took away the master and wanted to kill you, so he destroyed her." The second brother just wants to think about how Huo Xuan almost killed the eldest sister, how it felt when Huo Xuan almost killed you, and how the wife felt when she found the five ghosts from under your bedding."

Baoyu is silent.After a long time, he murmured: "An attempted murder is not considered a murder."

Jia Huan said: "The little girl who was killed by her was only ten years old, does this count as her murder?"

Baoyu was stunned.He finally gritted his teeth: "Forget it!" After saying that, he let out a long breath.

Jia Huan twitched his lips: "You just need to understand. Sister Yun's surname is Shi, and this alone is enough to offend my wife. She has already suffered a lot of grievances in her haste to marry in Chongxi, and my wife will have to learn more about it in the future." She vented her anger and hoped that her second elder brother would take care of him for the sake of growing up."

Baoyu was stunned for a moment, then said, "What should I do?"

Jia Huan rolled his eyes: "Please, is your mother more difficult to deal with than mine? My mother has given me and my sister a headache since we were young. And the master is also a person who never helps but only hinders us. In the past few days, you have become famous outside, and he has started to make troubles all over the capital again. Isn't it my fault? You only deal with your wife. I have worked much harder than you! You had a good life in the early years How comfortable, don't you want to pay it back?" After saying that, without looking at him again, he got up and left.

Baoyu stared blankly at his back and disappeared from behind, and stayed in a daze for a long time.Thinking back to Mrs. Wang from the beginning to the present, Linlin treated herself like a Buddha and others like a ghost; Jin Chuaner and Yu Chuaner were so bright and lovely in the past, but now one is waiting to die and the other is dead; Jiamu sees only herself and the master Well, the eldest wife and the second wife are both dispensable things, how ruthless!Sure enough, a girl who is not married is a priceless jewel; when she is married, she has many bad problems for some reason. Although it is a pearl, it has no brilliance and color, and it is a dead pearl; It became not a bead, but a fish eye.Thinking of this, with mixed feelings, I picked up a pen and wrote an article called "Theory of Pearl Fish Eyes".After writing, throw the pen on the case and fall asleep.

Jia Cong had told Sheyue that Baoyu's desk must not be less black and white. When did he write a lot of words and report it quickly.Musk Moon saw it from outside, and she ran to Lixiangyuan to return to Jia Cong.Jia Cong was overjoyed, and hurried over to their room, picked up the article and looked at it, and he was overwhelmed: "Good! You are confused and Wenqing still has some sense, and it will definitely attract a lot of sympathy! It's great!" Looking back Looking at Musk Moon, she said, "It's a good life to serve your second master, and you will have great promise!" Immediately rewarded her with ten taels of silver.Muskyue was overjoyed, and repeatedly agreed, knelt down and kowtowed to thank.Jia Cong then copied the article on someone else's desk, and ran away with it.

The next day was the wedding of Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun.Although he acted in a hurry, there were quite a few people who added makeup to his face.The banquet was organized in an orderly manner, and the guests all gave their thumbs up: it didn't seem like a temporary celebration!Li Wan, a widow who was usually as dry as wood and ashes, now shines brilliantly.Because all the kings have arrived in Beijing, Baoyu's literary name has suddenly risen again, and envoys from a yard come clattering.Someone reminded Jia Huan quietly, and Jia Huan smirked twice and said, "As long as the old man is having fun." The man laughed secretly, and quietly spread the words.When others heard it, they knew that what Jia Zheng said in front of Jia Huan was not worth it, so they added more details and passed it on again.

For a while Jia Huan left the table and walked around for a while, a little girl sneaked over and said to him secretly: "Master, Aunt Bai would like to ask Master to meet you."

Jia Huan was startled: "Who?"

The girl lowered her head and said, "Bai... Aunt Bai."

"Why is she looking for me?"

The girl said: "Aunt Bai said, I have something to ask the third master."

Jia Huan said: "I don't know her well, so I'm not interested in helping her." She retreated and left.

The girl grabbed his skirt: "Aunt Bai wants to entrust the third master to give the baby in her belly to Aunt Zhou to raise."

Jia Huan knew that Aunt Zhou was closer to him, and if Aunt Zhou raised the child, he would take care of it more.After thinking for a while, he said, "Even if she doesn't say anything, the child is probably raised by Aunt Zhou."

The girl said: "It's fine if it's a girl. If it's a young master, I'm afraid the old lady will order Aunt Xu to take care of her. If Aunt Xu can't guarantee that she can raise the child herself in the future, she will treat the child badly. It's better for Aunt Zhou... "

Jia Huan waved his hand and said: "We all know what she knows. Besides, this matter is quite important. In our house, I speak better than the old lady." But he ignored her and walked back to the table.The little girl stood up and recited the Buddha.

Looking up and seeing Jia Zheng bragging to others, Jia Huan hurried over to ask him to come aside and listen to him.Jia Zheng felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head, and his joy was completely extinguished.With a sigh, he said, "What do you think?"

Jia Huan said: "My son also thinks that Aunt Bai's words are reasonable. Aunt Xu is young, not to mention whether she can take care of children, she will probably be able to have a child in the future. If you have a relative, it will be difficult to have a baby if you don't. .”

Jia Zheng stroked his beard and said, "Aunt Xu is a good person, and she and Aunt Bai were also on good terms in the past, so she won't be biased."

Jia Huan lowered his head and said, "The eldest sister treats brother Baoyu better than me, and the third sister treats me better than brother Baoyu."

Jia Zheng choked, and immediately thought of Mrs. Wang oppressing the concubine, and couldn't help being filled with anger.If it wasn't for her still lying on the kang and unable to move, she would have gone over to Xingshi to question her.And thinking of Jin Chuan'er's beauty and charm in the past, she sighed again: "Forget it, just rely on her."

After the excitement dissipated, no one knew what was going on in the newlyweds' bridal chamber.

The next day, the bride went to court to worship her uncle and aunt. Mrs. Wang had already woken up but could not speak.Both Baoyu and Xiangyun clearly saw resentment in her eyes.

Chongxi really worked, Mrs. Wang's left half of her body was gradually able to move, and she was able to speak a few words.Jia Cong sneered: "The maidservants who serve her now are all maids. She is looking forward to being able to talk. Good luck to Sister Yun, Sister-in-law Zhu and Aunt Zhou to serve her."

At first, because I had nothing to do recently and was quite free, I found an excuse to tell Baoyu after hearing this.Baoyu frowned and asked, "Is there anything my sister can do?"

Started up and said: "No. The mother-in-law wants to grind her daughter-in-law, and the old woman wants to grind her concubine. They are all born. Unless the second master Bao has his own ideas. Or let her grind and the second grandma Bao will come back for a few days. It’s okay to pretend to be sick.”

The two of them were newlyweds, and he didn't want to let Mrs. Wang tease his wife, so he left with a sad face.

On the other side, I don't know how Zhong Wei and Situ Pan negotiated, but Situ Pan agreed to take three old friends from the past to Ezhou to open a teahouse.Feng Ziying came to tell Jia Cong and asked him to guess.

Jia Cong didn't raise his head and said: "I'm too lazy to guess, it's just to help him fight in the future. The E country is small and far away, and the king of E has no skills, so it's not worthwhile to collect information. By the way, Zhong Wei owes me a lot." A favor?"

Feng Ziying glared at him: "Although the E country is small, it is surrounded by heroes, so it is extremely important, okay? What's the matter with the favor Zhong Wei owes you?"

Jia Cong said: "Can their teahouse sell dim sum? I don't need to pay for dim sum in the future. Why don't he write me a 'free ticket'?"

"Is your family still heartless?"

Jia Cong giggled and said, "I told you, don't you understand! Dim sum that doesn't cost money is the sweetest. See, I love dim sum every time I'm at your house, but I eat less when I return home."

Feng Ziying couldn't laugh or cry.

He turned around and told Situ Pan the matter as a joke, Situ Pan smiled and said: "Since that's the case, let Zhong Wei write him a lottery. What's the matter?"

Feng Ziying said: "How would I know? That kid is weird."

Situ Pan ordered Zhong Weiminger to go to their house and write to him face to face.

Zhong Wei heard the words and said: "At the end of the argument, I really owe Mr. Jia a favor, and I should thank you in person." In his heart, he only thought that Gan Lei had something to ask him, and let Jia Cong pass on the message.

The next day Zhong Wei came to Lixiangyuan alone.A servant heard that it was "General Zhong" and hurriedly said: "The third master said, if General Zhong comes, just go in." Zhong Wei hurriedly tied his horse and walked in.

I saw a large wooden shelf in the courtyard, on which was hung a big chart, a group of teenagers were pointing around the chart, including Mrs. Chen.Jia Cong caught sight of him coming, and hurriedly said, "Oh, you're always here! If you don't come to the West Wing, that guy's neck will be cramped!" Then he stretched out his hand, "Here, it's there, go by yourself."

Zhong Wei had already prepared a lot of thank-you words and questions, and he was startled with just these few words when he started to fist.Looking at Jia Cong again, he went from burying his head to the group of teenagers.He immediately thought that the west wing room must be Gan Lei or the Supreme Emperor's subordinates.

Mrs. Chen withdrew from the crowd, wished him a blessing, and said tearfully, "How is the general?"

Zhong Wei sighed: "It's great that the condemned prisoners can come out."

Chen Shi said: "Now I'm here pretending to be a maid, and the general will wake me up. That's it."

Zhong Wei nodded, then pointed to the west wing and said, "But General Gan is waiting?"

Started up and said: "No. That man is a bandit. He has lived there for seven or eight days. He has a very dull temper and doesn't like to talk. Many shops under the big house of Rongguo Mansion sell stolen goods for others. They are a very big one. It’s at the source. The third master Cong didn’t tell me his name. The number of people asked the third master a few days ago why he was beating around the bush, sneaking around, and calling him in such a hurry. The third master went to his room yesterday afternoon, and he didn't know what to say to him. It took more than half an hour, and he came out of the west wing with his arms behind his back, smiling. Another quarter of an hour later, the man stumbled from inside He ran out, tearfully kowtowed to the third master three times, and the blue bricks were smashed! The third master waved his hand and said, isn't this a coincidence? Knocked three."

Zhong Wei felt an inexplicable jump in his heart: "How old is that man? What does he look like?"

Started up and said: "It is obvious that he is from the green forest. He is black and strong. He is about the same age as the general, maybe younger. He usually has a big beard. I heard that he shaved his beard for some reason this morning. I have something to go out early in the morning. , didn’t watch it; my brothers said it looks much better.”

Zhong Wei's inexplicable palpitations just now dissipated immediately, and then he felt disappointed, and said: "Baobuqi is the bandit that their family invited to rob the prison that day."

Started up and said: "I asked about this, but he said no."

Zhong Wei nodded, turned around and went to the west wing.Because he raised his hand to knock on the door, he heard a few hurried footsteps, and the door suddenly opened.I saw a person standing inside, wearing an ordinary blue shirt and a turban on his head.Even though he was already tanned, Zhong Wei recognized him at a glance—it was his nephew Zhong Heng whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years.Before he could speak, tears fell down his face.Zhong Heng knelt on the ground at the door and kowtowed vigorously.

Zhong Wei was dazed for a moment, then Fang Mai stepped into the door and bent over to help him.Zhong Heng refused to get up, and kowtowed uncontrollably.Zhong Weiqiang supported his shoulders and pulled him up.The two of them looked at each other for a while, and walked inside with each other's arms, crying in each other's arms.

Qi Dian was only thinking about the West Wing Room, and when he heard the cries coming from there, he wanted to take a look.

Jia Cong grabbed her and said, "What are you doing! Don't disturb others."

Qi Dian asked: "Who is that mountain king? Why are they crying?"

Jia Cong gave her a sideways glance and said: "The family has been ruined for more than ten years, and for the rest of their lives, the only relatives of each other will not make people cry when they meet each other!"

"What?!" Startled, he pointed to the west wing and said, "Then... that king is... Yulang Jun Zhong Heng? Why is he so old! He looks about the same age as General Zhong."

Jia Cong sighed: "A person who has stumbled and stumbled in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years can not be a young man. The bowl of rice in the green forest is not so delicious, and this guy is not sure how much he has suffered." He glanced over there again, "Today I asked you to buy sixty new handkerchiefs early in the morning just for the two of them. Now we will see if sixty is enough or not."

After a moment of surprise, he complained, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Jia Cong chuckled twice: "Everyone has guessed it, but you can't guess it, blame me?"
