The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Jia Cong and others released Xiao Qi from the Liu family, and after waiting for seven or eight days, there was nothing else to do except that the Liguo Mansion stopped harassing Yihong Courtyard.Situ Pan's people are busy these days, Jia Cong is lazy every morning, and in the afternoon, he goes to Yanwang Mansion to help with ideas or goes to the imperial hospital to see the imperial doctors experimenting with vaccinia.Shi Li recently lived in Lixiangyuan, went out to do his work during the day, and went back to Lixiangyuan for dinner.

When Jia Cong came back that day, Shi Li slumped on the rattan chair and said lazily, "Didn't you say Old Man Liu would come? How long have you been waiting?"

Jia Cong paralyzed across from him: "Think about it~~ Their family has been trapped in Da Nei for several lifetimes. Even if they know the news from the outside world and have gone on missions outside, it is completely different from the whole family living outside. It will be a bit at a loss. Others are fine, you can rely on him, he is the backbone of the whole family; he can only discuss with the Liguo Mansion, and the Liguo Mansion can only discuss with Liu Biao. It is a big deal for Gao to hook up with the little widow Nei Liu's family obviously didn't know about it. Now if they are suspicious of the Liguo Mansion, they have to find another person to discuss it. As for us, we have a good impression of their family but not of the Liguo Mansion. Sister Chen is the heir of Liu Xinxin. Invisibly, it has become the second choice besides the Liguo Mansion."

Shi Li said: "Why don't you come, I still have a lot of things to do at night."

"I don't have enough manpower, let's add a few more." Jia Cong said, "I'm so stupid to be tired."

"I like."

"I wish you a happy struggle." Jia Cong shrugged, stood up and went into the room to change clothes.

After dinner and a rest, the three of them fought landlords in the courtyard with big horn lamps, and the loser put a note on his face.Seeing that it was almost the second watch, there was a light knock on the door outside, and a young man went out to open the door. It was indeed Mr. Liu who came.Jia Cong glanced at Shi Li triumphantly, and stood up to meet him.

Mr. Liu was stunned when he saw Jia Cong.The servant reminded in a low voice: "Third Master! On your face..."

Jia Cong suddenly remembered that there was a note on his face, and hurriedly tore it off and said with a smile, "I was playing just now, hehehe, don't mind." Mr. Liu shook his head with a smile.Jia Congnai asked, "Should the old man just sit in this courtyard or go inside?"

Mr. Liu thought for a moment and said: "Let's just stay in the courtyard, it's cooler." Jia Cong nodded, and ordered his servants to bring a small table and chairs.Both Chen Ruijin and Shi Li came forward to greet him. Mr. Liu glanced at Shi Li a few times, but never asked him about his background.He and Jia Cong then sat face to face.

After taking a sip of tea, Jia Cong asked, "But because the Liguo Mansion wanted to take advantage of Yinfengju?"

Mr. Liu smiled wryly and said: "After thinking about it, there is no one to discuss it. As the saying goes, the onlooker is clear. Mr. Jia is an outsider, so he understands better. Now Mr. Li said that Mr. Gao didn't know about the widow of the Wang family and Yinfengju. It's related, the palace also said that the disappearance of Mr. Gao has nothing to do with them."

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Do you always believe it?"

Mr. Liu said: "It doesn't look like you are lying. Besides, what is Liguo Mansion doing with Yinfengju?"

Jia Cong said: "Investigate! You see, Li Guogong also knows that his children and grandchildren are useless, and he can't do anything about them. Fortunately, there is your family. In the past, all power in the world was held in the hands of saints. Your branch is in the big Stay inside, if the emperor wants to move the government of the country, he will have to worry about you. Now that you are out of the palace, it will be more beneficial to them. Come and go often. It doesn’t matter whether you are in the palace anyway. You have to try to find out the details of your family. He It’s good to know how you can help their family.”

Mr. Liu frowned: "How can I help their family?"

"For example, how much money does your family have? In the future, the government will be unable to make ends meet. Would you agree to borrow how much?" Jia Cong blinked, "Besides money, there are people. What are you willing to help them for? How old are you?" Wouldn’t it be a pity to let it go for nothing?” Nai smiled, “It’s such a big piece of fat, I have to weigh how many catties and how much I can eat.”

Mr. Liu was stunned for a while before he said, "Let Mr. Gao go and hook up with Miss Jiang, can you know how important our family is?"

Jia Cong waved his fingers and said, "Mr. Liu, don't look at it from your own position. First of all, you see, our family knew that the noodle restaurant was opened by the Empress Dowager to sell envoys. It was a coincidence; your family knew It's because you came from Da Nei. The Liguo Mansion didn't know about it! They just heard from Hualou that there was a noodle shop that was related to Yinfengju, and that the business was small and the money was huge, so it was obvious that there was something shady about it. After further inquiry, the man is dead! It is inevitable to be curious. What if I can find out the source of the goods from this man’s daughter-in-law? It is best to do business without capital. The little widow is beautiful, and the surname Gao is from the Hanlin family It's easy to hook up with the eldest young master who just lost his wife. Besides, that Boss Wang is obviously a side drummer, so hooking up with his wife might not alarm your family. He just didn't expect Mr. Gao to disappear."

Mr. Liu frowned slightly, and sighed for a while: "I hope that I have nothing to do with these things."

Jia Cong held his chin and said, "How is that possible? Your family is like a three-year-old child who spends money in the market, not to mention that the Liguo Mansion is already very poor. By the way, did the old man Liu Biao invite you to live in the Liguo Mansion?"

Mr. Liu looked at him: "What do you mean by that?"

Jia Cong said: "Many years ago, Aunt Xue fled to the capital with her children. My second aunt kindly invited their whole family to live in our house. Here, this is the yard." He pointed, "It's not small, there is a door facing the street free to come and go." Nai paused, "Later, my second aunt told Aunt Xue that she wanted Brother Baoyu to marry the sister of Xue's family. Of course she didn't tell her sister Baoyu's marriage. She borrowed hundreds of thousands of silver from Aunt Xue with various excuses, but naturally she didn't pay it back, and she didn't know where it went. In the end, it was Big Brother Xue who went crazy and wanted to go back. How many people can be like big brother Xue, who are willing to tear faces with their relatives for a few stinky money? Most of them are dragging on for a year, and that's all."

Mr. Liu took a light breath.In the past few days, Faxiang Temple has been disturbed by thieves every night, although they don't pay attention to them all, they are still very annoying.I also got a few questions, and they all said that it was gossip from unknown sources on the road recently. There are many treasures of money and treasures in Liguo Mansion hidden in the family temple.If these words are really spread outside, the people in the green forest will not know how long they will bother them.Liu Biao then asked them to live in the Liguo Mansion, or to live in some house in the Liguo Mansion.He was still hesitating at first, but after hearing what Jia Cong said, he immediately dismissed the idea.

Jia Cong looked at his face and said, "Obviously let me say it right. Surely you didn't live in the Liguo Mansion, but lived in their house?"

Mr. Liu shook his head: "Not yet, it's just that their family helped find the current residence."

"It's almost time." Jia Cong sighed, "You thin-skinned people are the best to deal with." Mr. Liu laughed dumbfounded.He is a big security chief with a thin skin?But Jia Cong saw what he was thinking, and said, "Don't look at your skill, it's called professional skills, and it's not the same thing as emotional intelligence. You are not spies after all, and it's not easy to shame your relatives. Not to mention that you have helped you before." There are many busy relatives at home."

Mr. Liu said: "Our family will not live in Liguo Mansion."

Jia Cong tilted his head: "The younger generation has a lot of mouths. Your family is so rich, you can easily buy anything. Why do you have to live in their house. The mouth is short for eating people, the hands are short for grabbing people, and the feet are short for living in people. "

Mr. Liu thought for a moment and said: "I can't find a suitable place for a while."

Jia Cong said: "Isn't it enough to find a good middleman? Our house is bought by a middleman. 360 lines, different professions, and among the middlemen there are also very professional... well, they are very good at They help clients find houses. You only need to ask. Where, how big, and how much money you want to buy the house, they will help you select the most suitable one. It will be easier if you are not short of money.”

Mr. Liu frowned again: "I'm afraid King Yan and the Empress Dowager are looking for our house."

"And!" Jia Cong rolled his eyes at him, "Old man, who are you! Do you know how many people with the surname Liu in the capital? Are you always going to put a note on your forehead—to protect the Liu family first? In the eyes of ordinary people You are just an ordinary guest." Nai paused, "Has the Liguo Mansion helped you get your household registration?"

Mr. Liu shook his head: "We haven't done the household registration yet."

"Huh?!" Jia Cong was shocked and stared at the old man for a long time.Although Shi Li had found out a long time ago that the Liguo Mansion had not asked anyone to buy a household registration for anyone. "This...isn't it too outrageous?"

Mr. Liu said: "I'm afraid the palace will notice."

Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "The one in the palace can't even pass the palace wall, so what if he realizes it. King Yan is pretty much the same. If Beijing is inconvenient, you can go elsewhere." The two were silent for a moment, Jia Cong said, "Old man, do you want our family to help you? How can I say that Sister Chen is also the descendant of Mr. Liu Xin. Wherever your family's ancestral home is, you can do it wherever you are. If you live outside the palace without a household registration, how can you do it?" .”

Mr. Liu said: "Most of us have the introductions of previous purchases."

"Oh, it's done in the palace, it's fake."

Mr. Liu nodded.

"That's so boring." Jia Cong said, "Life is like playing a house, half unsteady. Let me tell you, be honest. The princes will have to toss for many years, don't you think it will take another two years The Supreme Emperor is back. Even if he comes back, how can there be a place for him in the world? It is better to make a long-term plan."

Mr. Liu was speechless for a long time.At the end, he said: "If you really want to apply for household registration in your original place, you don't need to bother your house. We have our own methods."

"Yeah." Jia Cong nodded, "All of your family have hacks. Just be stable."

After a while, Mr. Liu asked: "Guess Mr. Jia, if it really has nothing to do with the palace, where is that child from the Gao family?"

Jia Cong rested his cheeks and said, "That's the brothel gambling house."

"Ok?"

"Under normal circumstances, when a good-looking person disappears, it is most likely either that he was hooked up by a fan-headed prostitute, or that he lost money in a gambling shop and was detained by them." Jia Cong said, "Because he is the son of the Hanlin family. Even if you lose money, you won’t be willing to tell the history of the gambling house’s family. I’m afraid you’ll lose his father’s face. Well, the capital is still quite chaotic now, and it’s not uncommon for you to encounter hooligans fighting in the market. This is not yours. Strengths, it is better to count on the Five Cities Bing Ma Si."

Mr. Liu thought for a moment, then sighed softly: "That's all. Excuse me."

Jia Cong said: "Don't be so polite, you are an elder after all."

Mr. Liu smiled and said: "No wonder Taoist Master Zhenming will go to the south to help you, he really knows how to talk."

Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "They say I can't speak, like a mallet. Isn't it true that you are always the elder?" Nai looked back at Chen Ruijin.Chen Ruijin came forward to give a blessing.

Mr. Liu looked at Shi Li who was sitting beside him holding a teapot and a snack plate: "That little brother is very skilled."

Shi Li hurriedly put down the teapot and cupped his fists and said, "The old man has won the award."

"Which family do you belong to? What's your name?"

"The junior's name is Ah Hei, so let's not talk about the teacher..."

Mr. Liu asked casually, but he looked at him instead: "Could it be that I recognize you?"

Shi Li lowered his eyebrows and said, "Baobuqi will recognize you."

Mr. Liu took a closer look at his eyebrows and eyes: "It really looks familiar." Shi Li smiled and said nothing.Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Mr. Liu got up and said goodbye.Jia Cong and Chen Ruijin personally sent him out.

Turning around and returning to the yard, Jia Cong glanced at Shi Li and said, "Hey, what kind of grudge?"

Shi Li snorted, "I knew you would guess wildly."

Jia Cong leaned in front of him: "Could it be that you are their family's lost child? Your surname is Liu?"

Shi Li smiled and shook his head: "No, my real surname is Shi. Guess again!"

"Would it not be the child of a sister whose family lost contact?"

"No. I'm not related to them by blood."

"If it's not relative, then it's enmity?" Jia Cong narrowed his eyes, "Their family was ordered to assassinate loyal ministers and good generals. Are you an orphan?"

"Still missed." Shi Li shook his head, "Oh, even Jia Cong can't guess it, and they can't even guess it."

Jia Cong rubbed his nose: "Isn't that all the bloody stories? What else can there be? He thinks you look familiar, there must be some reason."

Shi Li laughed and said, "What do you think I am going to live in Lixiangyuan for the past few days? I just want to hang out in front of him."

"Ah!" Jia Cong clapped his hands, "I guessed it!"

"what?"

Jia Cong was so excited that he almost jumped on the table: "Could it be that you are his lover's descendant? Because he, as the chief of the inner guard, cannot marry a woman from an ordinary family, that woman can only marry someone else?"

Shi Li still smiled and waved his hands: "No! Yes!"

Jia Cong really couldn't figure it out now. "What possibility is there!" He had never asked Shi Li's identity before.He thought that if there was anything unusual, Jia Xu would tell him.Since he didn't say anything, it must be just an ordinary child who got a chance to be adopted by Mr. Mu. "Are you a child of the Situ family?"

Shi Li rolled his eyes at him: "I just told you that my surname is Shi."

"It's killing someone." Jia Cong rubbed his eyebrows, "Where can I guess."

"Forget it, let's guess later when we have time." Chen Ruijin said, "The ancestral home of the Liguo Mansion is Chang'an."

Jia Cong nodded: "So they will go to Qin State to apply for household registration in the near future. I will write a letter to my aunt and ask her to keep an eye on it. Knowing the directory of these people is better than not knowing." Nai stretched out Lazily, "It's been hard work to beat me up. Wash up and go to sleep."

He and Chen Ruijin then went back to the house to clean up.Shi Li was still sitting alone in the yard enjoying the shade.
