The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Jia Cong got up very early that day, wearing moon white arrow sleeves to look cool, and wearing a Confucian scarf on his head, he went to Liu's house alone.Before leaving, he asked Chen Ruijin, "Will you follow?" Chen Ruijin said, "It's useless for me to follow ten people in that place."

When they reached the gate of Liu's house, they knocked on the knocker three times, and after a short while, someone asked, "Who is outside the door?"

Jia Cong said: "Businessman, please see Mr. Liu."

The person inside said silently for a moment: "Please wait a moment."

After half a day, the door opened with a creak, and Liu Sili clasped his fists inside: "Mr. Jia."

Jia Cong made a bow: "Good morning, Fourth Master Liu. Wan Sheng has something to discuss with Mr. Liu."

Liu Si sized him up and asked, "What about the bodyguard?"

"No." Jia Cong said, "you should decide on your own. Besides, the bodyguard bureau is fourth uncle Jia's work, and I don't care about it. There are other things."

Liu Si nodded and led him straight to the hall.Just arrived at the door and looked in, and saw the plaque hanging on the hall, Jia Cong laughed "puchi", and pointed: "Has this been replaced yet?"

Liu Sidao: "This is where it was before."

"I know." Jia Cong said, "Sister Chen originally bought this yard, and I also came to see it. The original plaque said 'Fu Shou Yan Mian', but I thought it was old-fashioned, so I replaced it with the current one. The woman's mind became strong, and she wanted to sell it again after a few days, but it happened that your family bought it."

Liu Si couldn't help laughing: "What did I say, why...there are three words like this."

Jia Cong looked at him like a thief and said, "Oh? Fourth Master Liu, do you know what these three words mean?"

Liu Si whispered: "I know a little bit."

"Besides, it's still 'rough'!" Jia Cong winked with a tacit understanding, "I clearly know it." He walked in.

Mr. Liu was sitting on the main seat, Jia Cong stepped forward to him and bowed to the ground: "I have seen Mr. Liu."

"Mr. Jia, you don't need to be too polite." Mr. Liu said, "I don't know why Mr. Jia is here."

Jia Cong said: "I will discuss with you how to make up nonsense." The old man was taken aback.Jia Cong shrugged and said, "Although Yinfengju does not belong to your family, King Yan and Brother Feng thought it belonged to your family. The matter of Yinfengju's desire to buy firearms has been confirmed. If you are King Yan, dare you rest assured? Although I don’t know where you live, but the Liguo Mansion is here.”

Mr. Liu thought about it: "The Liguo Mansion has its own methods."

"Huh? You are always joking! Can the Liguo Mansion have a solution?" Jia Cong opened his eyes wide, "Who has a solution? Liu Biao?"

Mr. Liu said: "Feng Ziying can't find out anyway."

Jia Cong twitched the corner of his mouth: "In the past, he just wanted to check and find out; the meaning of checking is not to make a fuss. Now that things have happened, you don't think Brother Feng will be polite to ask for advice." Mr. Liu locked the door again frown.Jia Cong added, "But if I tell them the truth, the Empress Dowager will die."

After a long while, Mr. Liu said: "My Liu family definitely cannot kill the Empress Dowager. I don't know if Mr. Jia has any ideas."

Jia Cong said: "I have an idea, but I have to meet some men from your family to decide whether it will work or not. Don't worry, old man, I don't need or have the ability to make any suggestions to your family. After all, my wife is Senior Liu Kexin. Heir to the successor." He paused, pursed his lips and said, "It's just...that...my idea is rather weird, and it's up to your family to decide whether to use it or not."

Mr. Liu thought for a long time and asked, "Who do you want to see?"

Jia Cong said: "I don't know. Please invite me to take a look at it first. When you find a suitable one, then... well, why don't you invite all the men to me to have a look, and I will choose the most suitable one. If there is really no one Think of another idea."

Mr. Liu frowned and said, "What's the idea?"

Jia Cong smirked: "That what... If there is no suitable one, I won't say it..."

Liu Si said from the side: "I heard that Mr. Jia often comes up with some unbelievable... crooked ideas, which are probably very useful."

Jia Cong said: "Thank you for not saying it's a bad idea. The requirement is: an adult man with the surname Liu. Women, children and those with a different surname are not required. Don't worry, I just look at the appearance."

Although Mr. Liu didn't know what he was up to, he was well-known, and he was infatuated with Chen Ruijin from the women's guard camp, and now his family really had no other good ideas, so he really ordered Liu Si to call for someone.Liu Sidao: "Lao Qi has gone out."

Jia Cong hurriedly said, "Liu Xiaoqi doesn't need it! I've seen him, he doesn't rely on Thirteen."

Not long after, all the men from the Liu family came, but there were only more than 20 of them.Jia Cong bowed to them solemnly: "Hello, Master Liu! For some reason, Wansheng has to look at the faces of the members of the meeting. There is no malice, and there is nothing wrong with being rude." Then he looked at their faces one by one. .This group of people has indeed been trained, no one talks too much, and no one shows dissatisfaction. They stand up straight like more than 20 terracotta warriors.After Jia Cong finished watching, he walked back from the beginning three times, and finally bowed his hands to someone, "Brother Liu, do you dare to ask your age?"

The man said: "Under 42."

Jia Cong nodded and gestured to Mr. Liu with his eyes.The old man ordered everyone to go down and leave this person alone.Jia Cong said: "Brother Liu is a little older, so he can still talk about it." Nai walked back to Mr. Liu and said, "People like you must have strict rules."

Mr. Liu nodded: "Not bad."

"People have seven emotions and six desires, and strict rules can isolate most of them. After all, there are two emotions that can break through all rules. One is the feeling of licking a calf. For the sake of their children, parents talk about the emperor, even the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, and the gods and Buddhas all over the sky. You can forget about it. The second is the love between a man and a woman. Love is the most charming eye. But when one person falls in love with another, everything in the world can be abandoned. The rules of your family, these two things can also be broken. "

Mr. Liu asked, "What's the matter with this matter?"

Jia Cong said: "Since the old man insists on taking the blame for the empress dowager, he must explain one thing clearly to the prince: If the Liu family has no intention of buying firearms, why are the two shopkeepers of Yinfengju with the owner of the noodle restaurant? Friendship is irreversible." He took out a portrait from his arms, "This is the appearance of Boss Wang drawn according to the descriptions of Mingchunlou fans, and it really doesn't look like your family. The face shape and eyes are somewhat similar to this Brother Liu."

Mr. Liu frowned suddenly, and Liu Si said beside him: "Mr. Jia, if he has a plan, why not explain it earlier."

Jia Cong glanced at Liu Si and said: "Fourth Master, you left lightly. I thought about it all day yesterday. I went over that pile of shit and found something strange. That boss Wang Lou Manzui has been shooting guns for a long time, if I were his boss, he would have chopped him up long ago, why did he live so long?"

Liu Sidao: "Mr. Jia, what do you think?"

Jia Cong said: "There are only two couples in that small noodle restaurant, Boss Wang and his wife. The business of smuggling firearms is a serious business! Black and white are not fuel-efficient lamps. There are too few women practicing martial arts. Even if there are It's just a few times of three-legged cat kung fu. The little widow is probably just an ordinary woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, so Boss Wang must be a rare martial arts master. His boss endured him for so long, not because he wanted to endure him, but because Because I can’t kill him. In other words, his boss can’t beat him.” He spread his hands and said, “There are not many masters in this world. Even if your family has strict rules, it is inevitable that some people will leave Beijing to work under the secret order of the late emperor, and fall in love with him accidentally. A woman. The magic power of love can tear apart the world. Originally, he also wanted to cut the thread of love with Hui Jian, but the woman was pregnant. In order that the child would no longer be a tool in the emperor's hands like himself, he did not return to Beijing." Jia Cong squinted Eyes, "I heard that Green Forest has the ability to change the appearance of a person, but the eyes can't change. Your family is staring at Boss Wang, not because they want to buy firearms from his wife, but because they are not sure whether he is your family. defector."

Mr. Liu was silent when he heard the words.But Liu Si said: "Boss Wang hangs around the brothel every day, he is not an infatuated master."

Jia Cong said: "People's feelings will change. Although the little widow is beautiful, she is no longer amazing after seeing it for a long time. Besides, he has never stayed with fans, so it can be seen that he still has his wife in his heart. Your family has been trapped in the palace for a long time. , all of them are like Liu Xiahui. Once you are no longer bound by the family rules, the world will be full of feasting and feasting... Men, it will be a matter of time to let yourself go."

Liu Si thought for a long time, and said: "But after Boss Wang died, Yinfengju still went to pester the widow."

Jia Cong said: "Because Boss Wang was not killed by your family, but by his boss. Although he is dead, his son is still from the Liu family. You want to get it back." He suddenly remembered something, and cupped his hands to Mr. Liu. , "Speaking of Yinfengju, I will make people stare at them. The empress dowager also has female guards in her hands, and the female guards are no less capable than the male guards. She is a blind woman who is like a blind horse. She has a firearm It's worth it!"

Mr. Liu said: "This has nothing to do with our family."

Jia Cong nodded: "I'm just telling you. At first when I heard that she had such ambitions, I wanted to stab the prince regardless. Then I thought, the mother of the little sage is not even as good as her, so I have to keep her to teach the little one. Sage, just bear it." Nai smiled wryly and sighed softly, "Loyalty and filial piety have never been perfect since ancient times, but now we have encountered a situation where loyalty and loyalty are not perfect."

Mr. Liu couldn't help being moved, and then sighed: "Isn't it? Everyone is the master, but everyone is not right. I don't know who to favor."

Jia Cong sighed again: "The king of Yan is more than a hundred times stronger than the empress dowager and the little sage, but the little sage is also a child of the Tian family after all, and we as ministers still don't want to see him worthless." Qiqiyan.

Liu Sidao: "Grandfather, this matter..."

Jia Cong hurriedly said: "It's just a suggestion. The old man will be a little bit of advice if he sees it is available; it's okay if you don't use it."

The person Jia Cong singled out to pretend to be Boss Wang's brother suddenly said, "Mr. Jia, why did you help our family with no relatives and no reason?"

Jia Cong turned around and asked him, "Brother Liu, have you ever seen someone who is afraid of his wife?"

The man thought for a while: "No."

Jia Cong smiled and pointed to his nose: "I see you now."

Liu Si smiled slightly, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jia."

Mr. Liu said: "That Mr. Gao also disturbed the widow of the Wang family for a few days."

Jia Cong spread his hands and said, "After a few days of harassment, he disappeared. Can't the little widow offend you, or him?"

Liu Sidao: "How to explain to Mr. Feng that Mr. Gao went to disturb the widow?"

Jia Cong clapped his hands and said, "How does your family know! Maybe Liguo's family is getting worse and wants to get some firearms and guns to rob? It's not up to you to explain anyway, and they don't care why."

Mr. Liu said: "Forget it. Thank you, Mr. Jia."

Jia Cong hesitated for a moment and said: "Sister Chen and I will get married in the future. Is it possible for your family to send someone to the south to watch the ceremony? She has already turned against that family. At least she must have a natal family."

Mr. Liu said: "Our family has nothing to do with the female guard camp."

Jia Cong said softly: "After all, she is also a disciple of the Liu family." Then he smiled awkwardly, "Forget it, it's not a big deal." He couldn't hide his disappointment in his words.So he bowed his hands and said goodbye.

He had already turned around and walked a few steps, when Mr. Liu suddenly asked: "Did you write the plaque on this hall?"

Jia Cong turned his head and said "hehe" twice: "The wording is not very good, you should take it off quickly."

"What does 'Blackwood Cliff' mean?"

Jia Cong scratched his head: "Heimuya is the main altar of the Sun Moon God Sect in "Swordsman" in Lulin Commentary. I wrote it for fun." Mr. Liu obviously had never seen "Swordsman", so he let him go gone.

Liu Si sent him out.Walking to the door, Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "Come back again, Fourth Brother Liu~~"

Just as he untied his horse, Liu Si suddenly walked up to him and said, "Mr. Jia, please excuse me." He pointed to the purse on Jia Cong's waist and said, "May I ask who made this purse?"

Jia Cong thumped in his heart, he really didn't expect that it was him who inquired about the purse!Nai looked sideways at Liu Sidao, "Sister Chen bought it from outside."

"Bought it?" Liu Si said, "Your family has no shortage of needleworkers, why would you go outside to buy purses?"

Jia Cong said: "Sister Chen is very busy, I don't want her to do such a grueling job, and there is no maid in Lixiangyuan. A few days ago, she saw an excellent needlework elsewhere, and the sister-in-law said she bought it. She went to the store to have a look and bought a few items." Nai said comfortingly, "She is becoming more and more like an ordinary woman." Liu Si was silent.Jia Cong glanced at him again, "Hey, Fourth Master Liu doesn't seem like someone who knows how to inquire about purses~~It's not a woman."

Liu Si cupped his hands and said, "Thank you." Shuang Li turned around and went back.Jia Cong pompously stretched his neck and looked curiously, watching him close the door and get back on his horse.

Jia Cong had just had a cup of tea when he returned to Lixiangyuan. Chen Ruijin came back from the outside and asked about the process. He was also slightly surprised: "If it is Liu Si, his child is so young?"

Jia Cong said: "In this line of work, late marriage and late childbearing are acceptable. He still looks like a living person, so what's the problem if he doesn't keep it all right?"

Chen Ruijin thought: "Since this is the case, sooner or later they will come to find me. There is no rush." ​​But he pushed him, "Let's go after a while."

"Ah? Where are you going?" Jia Cong pouted, "I still want to be lazy today."

"Go to see Situ Pan." Chen Ruijin said, "Just now I discussed the meeting with Second Mistress Bao. Since the country of Yan wants to set up a compulsory education school, girls' school can also be set up. If Princess Jian'an is willing, let her take care of it; I’m not interested in doing this, so I’ll trouble her to make a name, and she’ll do it if she wants to.”

Jia Cong blinked: "You two sisters-in-law only discussed this all morning?"

Chen Ruijin said with a smile: "The girls in the Yangshengtang may learn different things from the girls in ordinary families. The second grandma Bao of Rongguo Mansion paid for another school."
