The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Jia Lian hosted a banquet in Dajiala's private house, and Chen Ruiwen watched his sister talk to Jia Cong from a distance, feeling anxious.After waiting patiently for half a day, he finally couldn't bear to step forward and call out: "Fourth sister!"

Before Chen Ruijin could answer, Jia Cong asked first, "Do you want me to choke him?"

Chen Ruijin said: "No need, I'll choke him myself." Jia Cong nodded and stood behind her.

Chen Ruiwen opened his mouth and swallowed again, smiled wryly for a while before saying, "Why is Fourth Sister so upset, I have to give you an explanation."

Chen Ruijin said indifferently: "When the mansion sent me to the eunuchs, I almost died in the palace many times when I was young. Since then, I have hated the Qi mansion to the bone. If it wasn't for the chaos in the capital, follow my original plan , The Qi State Mansion has long been ransacked and wiped out."

Chen Ruiwen was shocked: "What did you say?" Chen Ruijin just looked at him without saying a word.Chen Ruiwen stayed there for a while, uncertain, "Impossible." Chen Ruijin remained silent.Chen Ruiwen took a breath, pointed at her and said, "You...you actually...you heartless..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Ruijin "hush": "Master Chen, don't scold me, the last one who scolded me is dead."

Jia Cong raised his hand from behind: "I killed it." Chen Ruiwen watched the two of them for a long time, then suddenly shivered for no reason, and took two steps back.Jia Cong waved to him, and pulled Chen Ruijin to greet others.

Chen Ruiwen was stunned in shock; Zhen Yinglian caught a glimpse not far away, and whispered to Wei Ruoheng.Wei Ruoheng then came over and asked him what's the matter.Chen Ruiwen grabbed Wei Ruoheng's arm in panic, and murmured: "Fourth sister said, she hates our family...how could it be like this?"

Although Wei Ruoheng didn't know the truth, he also heard from Jia Cong that Chen Ruijin's experience was similar to his own, so he frowned and said, "Your family can't stand her, why can't you hate her?"

Chen Ruiwen argued: "It was a last resort back then! She is so old, she should be considerate."

Wei Ruoheng especially hated the word "unavoidable". He shook Chen Ruiwen's arm and said coldly, "People just don't want to be considerate. What can you do?"

Chen Ruiwen didn't notice Wei Ruoheng's displeasure at all, and said with a frown, "That's the difficulty, and she won't listen to reasoning with her."

Wei Ruoheng looked at him for a while, couldn't help laughing, and said leisurely, "Jia Cong said something to me many years ago, and now it's appropriate to send it to Master Chen."

Chen Ruiwen hurriedly cupped his hands: "What are you talking about? General Wei please enlighten me."

"If reasoning works, what do we need swords and firearms for?" Wei Ruoheng also left him behind, turned around and left.

Situ Cen also saw it, and was curious, so he slipped over to inquire.No one told Chen Ruiwen about Situ Cen's identity, Chen Ruiwen only regarded him as an ordinary guest, and said sadly: "Mr. Cen, if your family has something wrong with you, how will you treat it?"

Situ Cen didn't know his background at all, and he was born in a naturally ruthless family, so he misunderstood, and cheered him up enthusiastically: "Do you want to save face? Maybe people expect you to be soft, it's better to tear your face with a ruthless hand." , Once and for all. If you have to take care of your face, you can only take revenge secretly. Don't worry, take your time. The plan must be thorough, and the enemy must be eliminated with one move."

Chen Ruiwen was dumbfounded: "What?!"

Situ Cen suddenly realized that he had made a mistake.This guy was not cheated by his family, but he was cheated by his family. He hurriedly forced a smile: "Oh... I'm just talking about that casually, don't take it seriously." With two hehes, he smeared oil on his feet and slipped away.

Seeing Chen Ruiwen's distraught appearance, a waiter came over and asked him if he needed help.Chen Ruiwen grabbed the man's arm as if grabbing a life-saving straw and asked, "Brother, if others treat you badly, how will you treat it?"

The waiter blurted out: "Naturally, I will retaliate." In this era of foreign expansion, the Taiwan government has taught children since childhood, "When friends come, they have good wine, and when wolves come, they have hunting guns."

Chen Ruiwen was in a hurry: "Are you disregarding sympathy?"

The waiter made a rough guess, but he was not happy to comfort the person who "couldn't be nice to others". He lowered his eyelids and said, "The Master said, 'Repaying a grievance with virtue, how can you repay a virtue? Repay a grudge with a straight line, and repay a virtue with a virtue.'" Chen Ruiwen After being broken by four or five people in a row to break the world view, he stayed where he was in a daze.

At this moment, someone shouted: "Master Zhifu is here-" Jia Lian walked out from behind the big screen with Wang Xifeng on his arm and led his children smiling.Jia Cong and Chen Ruijin hurriedly led the three members of the Wei family to get to know each other, and then introduced Situ Cen.Jia Lian and his wife have always been the most eloquent in the Taiwan government.First greet the full house of guests, let everyone eat, drink and have fun, and then chat with several hosts and guests with a happy face.

Wei Ruoheng wanted to see Jarvis wholeheartedly, so while Situ Cen was dragging Jia Lian to talk, he asked Jia Cong if General Jarvis had come.Jia Cong pointed at Lin Daiyu: "Here, isn't that her man?"

Wei Ruoheng said, "I'm troubled by Third Master Cong's recommendation?"

Jia Cong blinked: "Don't you two already know Sister Lin? It's good that she introduces you." Wei Ruoheng had just arrived in Taiwan, and was not used to treating women like men, so he was startled.Jia Cong just looked at him innocently, "Sister Lin is also in charge of the army. The three of you are colleagues, so you happen to have a lot to talk about."

Wei Ruoheng nodded: "That's right." Pulling his wife back from Wang Xifeng's side, he led his son towards Lin Daiyu and his wife.

Chen Ruijin looked at Jia Cong and said, "Sister-in-law Wei is not used to listening to someone who leads troops to fight?"

Jia Cong rubbed his nose: "Let them get to know each other first, why don't you lead Zhen Yinglian around later."

Chen Ruijin thought for a while: "Alright, save Chen Ruiwen from being entangled."

Sure enough, after a while, the three of Jarvis, Lin Daiyu and Wei Ruoheng were about to quarrel.Yuanyuan had already asked Jia Meng to go upstairs to play, but Zhen Yinglian was the only one sitting there.Chen Ruijin found an excuse to interrupt and took Zhen Yinglian out for a stroll.

For a moment Jia Cong was talking with his friends, Situ Cen walked over from the outer circle and nodded slightly: "Jia Cong, are you free?"Situ Cen glanced around and asked, "Where is it quieter?"

Jia Cong thought for a while: "Let's go to the backyard. But you may miss the backyard of my brother's villa."

"Ok?"

"Western style." Jia Cong said, "You can also see that this whole house has a bit of Western style."

Situ Cen looked around and said, "It's also different from Western houses."

"Hehe, this is a modern style. It's strange if you've seen it before." Jia Cong said with a smile, "Go, go to the back." Then he put his paw on his shoulder and left.

Going out of the side door on the west side, looking up is a bright white last quarter moon.The sound of the orchestra in the room suddenly faded away, making people melancholy for no reason.Jia Cong squeezed his chin and said, "Such a romantic relationship should be recited as a poem."

Situ Cen made a bow: "Please, Mr. Jia."

Jia Cong waved his hand: "Without poetry, I can't sing."

Situ Cen looked at the long corridor in front of him: "This pillar is a style I often see in the West."

"Well, the architect in charge is an Italian, we kidnapped from the West." Jia Cong led him slowly through the Roman-style corridor, "It's quite exotic."

"En." Situ Cen responded.Neither of them spoke.

All the way to the back garden.The climate in Taiwan is warm; Jia Lian is the magistrate, his gardener is not inferior, and he has many flowers and trees imported from abroad, so the garden is very lush.Situ Cen suddenly pointed to the big oil lamp on the side of the road and said, "On the way we came, we saw oil lamps on the side of the road. Are they prepared by the government?"

Jia Cong had been waiting for him to speak, and he said casually: "Yes. The street lights on the street need to be brighter, and the lights in the garden don't need to be so bright."

Situ Cen thought: "Are there so many shops open for business at night?"

Jia Cong nodded: "The night market is very busy. Ordinary people, regardless of gender, have work to do during the day. Many people only have time to go shopping and shopping at night."

Situ Cen nodded: "No wonder the business is booming. Are the lamps on the street wasting so much oil?"

Jia Cong laughed and said, "How can it be wasted? These oil lamps and the money for the oil can't compare to an antique, but do you know how much tax can be added to Dajiala? It's a good deal. There are bright people on the street. I can go out and walk around, even if it’s for nothing, maybe I bought a lollipop for my child? Money, it’s a dead thing at home, and it’s useful when it’s in circulation.”

While talking, the two had already walked under a lamppost. Situ Cen looked up for a long time, and Jia Cong sat on the seat under the lamp. It’s a big piece. The night market can be built, and the street lights are the most important.”

Situ Cen asked, "How did you come up with this idea?"

"It's not what I thought." Jia Cong said, "300 years ago, a magistrate of the capital of England made an initiative to ask the people to hang up lamps for passers-by spontaneously at night. France had this seriously more than 100 years ago, and they were the ones at that time. The emperor ordered the common people in the capital city to hang lamps. This thing is a municipal infrastructure, so it should be managed by the government. How can the common people make it last for a long time? We used it.”

Situ Cen said: "I heard from the innkeeper that your bus carriage was also learned from the West. Why didn't I see it in the West?"

"I also learned it from France. It's a small town, you may not have been there before. And it's not the government that sets up the bus and carriage, it's the common people of the mill."

Situ Cen glanced at him: "It's true to choose the good one and follow it. Choose the good one in the world and follow it."

Jia Cong said: "If it weren't for this, how could we catch up with the Westerners?" He smiled wryly and pointed to the street lamp, "Well, there are many, many, many people in the bus carriage, talent market. I first experimented for a long time in Taiwan, and after I succeeded, I gave it to the King of Yan. Write a note, hoping that he can accept it."

Situ Cen scoffed, "Can he adopt this kind of thing? How old is he?"

Jia Cong turned his head and stared at him for a while, and asked, "Can your brother accept it?" Situ Cen was slightly taken aback.Jia Cong said, "Your brother is the most outstanding son I have ever met."

Situ Cen hesitated for a moment: "It should be better than my ninth uncle."

Jia Cong looked at him again, and asked casually, "What about you?"

Situ Cen immediately said: "I said earlier that I have no intention of becoming the son of the world."

"Who told you to fight for the position of son?" Jia Cong shrugged, "How much effort would it be wasted?"

Situ Cen frowned: "Then what do you mean?"

Jia Cong sighed: "These are useful things for the whole country. We have spent many years experimenting to develop them, but it is extremely difficult to promote them. Up to now, only Guangdong, Guangxi and Lu State are using them. Guangdong and Guangxi are too remote, and Lu State is too small. A Cen, in the future when you establish a colony, can you promote these in the colony?"

Situ Cen remained silent for a long time, as if he was talking to himself: "Then...the colony may be stronger than Shu in a few decades."

Jia Cong snorted, "If the colony is better than Shu because of its advanced infrastructure, but your brother still refuses to learn the past in Shu, you can replace him, Cen."

Situ Cen looked up at the streetlight again.Jia Cong waited beside him with folded arms.After a while, Situ Cen said, "My brother is not that stubborn."

Jia Cong suddenly sighed: "I just don't understand. These are obviously excellent things, and I can be considered a celebrity, so why is it so difficult to push?"

Situ Cen originally wanted to ask him a lot of questions, but now he blocked them all and patted him on the shoulder instead: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. My old man is still persuasive, so I will persuade him."

Jia Cong thought for a while: "Since you want to avoid suspicion, why don't you put the credit on your brother? Just pretend that these are your brother's thoughts?"

Situ Cen couldn't help laughing: "Don't think that all brothers in the Situ family are the same as my third uncle and ninth uncle, I still have brotherhood with my brother." Jia Cong curled his lips.Situ Cen thought for a while, "Actually, if Uncle Jiu didn't intend to compete with Uncle San, the two of them wouldn't be where they are now."

Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "Pull it down, the one who sits on the dragon chair must be the strongest, and something must happen if the branch is bigger than the root."

Situ Cen said solemnly: "My brother is stronger than me."

Jia Cong waved his hand: "I don't care what happens to you two brothers, or what happens to the state of Shu. I just want the overall strength of the country to be stronger than the world, especially the Western countries, so that future generations will not be bullied. Cen, you are an enlightened person." He stood up and bowed to the ground, "I am willing to help my little brother."

Situ Cen hastily returned the salute: "As a disciple of the Situ family, Cen is duty-bound!"

Jia Cong was overjoyed, took his hand and said, "You stay longer, I have a lot to tell you!" Situ Cen pulled him out because he was looking at the strange customs of Dajiala and wanted to ask Is he rebellious? Jia Cong pushed [-] to test the national policy for King Yan, which is obviously a good policy and King Yan does not use it.Situ Cen's originally sober thoughts made him confused for a moment, and he nodded repeatedly.

Just at this time, from a distance, I saw two moon-white shadows slowly turning side by side from a small path, it was Chen Ruijin and Zhen Yinglian.Jia Cong nympho said: "My wife is so beautiful——"

Situ Cen suddenly remembered something: "Jia Cong, your Taiwan government doesn't have any male and female defense at all."

"That's right." Jia Cong said, "Otherwise, how can we let women go out and do things?"

Situ Cen frowned: "The girls have gone out to do errands, who cares at home."

"Please don't be in charge? Put the right person in the right place. Don't say anything else, look at my cousin Lin, she is a rare talent in the world. If your cousin snatches it away, she will stay in the harem forcibly." What a waste of talent in it? Without her ingenuity, how many brothers Paoze would have died during the war?"

Situ Cen choked: "After all, she is rare."

"Less?!" Jia Cong had a half-smile, and looked up at the two women to avoid the other way, "Do you really think it's less?" Situ Cen felt guilty and didn't answer.
