The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Jia Cong moved into Lixiangyuan secretly while others were not prepared, and there were sixteen boys who moved in with him, the older ones were no more than thirteen or fourteen, and the younger ones were only eight or nine years old, and they were all invited by Jia She for him. A playmate who practiced martial arts, even Wu You was among them.When Jia Cong heard his father mention the list, he understood that this time Jia Amnesty had recruited the next generation or two of the top soldiers and uncles for him.

When Jia She heard that the youngest son had finished moving, he sent someone to call Jia Lian over and told him, "I asked Cong'er to rush to occupy the Lixiangyuan. The old lady and the second wife don't know about it yet, so I will tell you first."

Jia Lian was taken aback: "Cong'er took over Pear Fragrance Garden? I'm confused, what is the master doing?"

Jia She shook his head and coaxed him according to Gong Sanyi's idea: "I heard that your second aunt said that Lixiangyuan will be reserved for Baoyu to marry that girl from the Xue family in the future. Cong'er is only seven years old, let him Occupy that place for life and death, and get married a few years later. The large empty yard in this mansion is gone, and I will see where Baoyu can get married."

Jia Lian couldn't help but laugh: "How can there be such a thing... the ancestors will definitely not agree."

Jia She stroked his beard with a smile and said, "He's too young, I don't feel at ease living alone, so I invited a dozen or so playmates for him, even though they are young, they are all the children of your uncle's family who are soldiers." Good work."

Jia Lian was dumbfounded: Is this a fight with the old lady?After hurriedly persuading him for a long time, Jia Amnesty ignored him anyway.I had no choice but to go back and tell Wang Xifeng to discuss with her.

Wang Xifeng was also stunned: "Master, what kind of play are you singing?" Suddenly she laughed again, she was also happy that Jia She made the old ancestor feel bad, she did things so cheaply.

Jia Lian said: "I was just thinking about it on the way, probably because I wanted to compete with my ancestor and test her." He thought about it again, and smiled, "Forget it, the two big Buddhas can't be offended. Don't make Hades fight the little ghosts. Anyway, it's none of my business, just don't give up to the yard. In the master's heart, the group of personal soldiers is extremely important."

Wang Xifeng said: "Naturally." Inte sent Ping'er to ask them if there were any shortcomings.

Jia Cong was also not polite, and he made a list for her, and asked her to whisper a word, only for Jia Lian, and no one else could hear it.Ping'er hurriedly asked what to say.Jia Cong said in a low voice: "Tell the second brother, if someone bullies him in the future and it is inconvenient for him to retaliate, I will be the one. His brother will fight!"

Ping'er was taken aback, and just wanted to say a few more words, Jia Cong warned again: "Don't let the second sister-in-law know."

Ping'er wondered: "The second grandma and the second master are originally married, why..."

Jia Cong looked at her twice, then stumbled and said, "I was wrong. I should tell my second elder brother this in person, and I shouldn't use Sister Ping's words. Oh, I'm really not a proper person, and it's too late to regret it now. Oh, sister Ping, forget about it, just pretend I didn’t say it..." He looked at Ping'er suspiciously again, and said with a wry smile, "Second sister-in-law... I'm afraid she might not keep her mouth shut one day, and she will tell the truth when she returns to her mother's house. Sister Ping just told my second brother everything I said word for word, and he will definitely understand what I mean."

Ping'er didn't know what the two brothers were up to, so he had to agree, and went back and quietly told Jia Lian when no one was around.

Jia Lian was also taken aback.At first when he heard that, he thought it was a child who only knew how to use force, and he laughed "nonsense". After a while, he realized that his father was probably going to hand over the business of robbing the slaves to Jia Cong, so he let the group The children of the military family lived with him.This matter is too confidential, even if it is leaked to the Wang family, it is extremely unsafe.Can't help cursing: "Stinky boy! Why are you so lazy, just walk a few more steps." He told Ping'er again and again, "Don't let people know."

Seeing his solemn expression, Ping'er hastily agreed, and swore another oath.Seeing her delicate and pretty appearance, Jia Lian was distracted. Fang wanted to come up to hug her, but she was so frightened that she threw the curtain and ran out.Jia Lian cursed bitterly in the room for a long time.

Looking back, Ping'er paid them all the things Jia Cong asked for with all his heart, and sent them over.

At the end of the Lixiang Courtyard, after everyone had cleaned up the meeting, dropped by, and chatted, Jia Cong smiled and summoned everyone into the hall, preparing to deliver an inaugural speech.He turned his head and looked at the crowd for a long time, and after watching them for a long time, he suddenly said: "I don't know what to say at the moment." Everyone laughed.

Jia Cong then said: "A few days ago, I told my father that I wanted some guards, but I never thought that it was you who came. This old man helped me, but also cheated me." He sighed softly, " It is impossible to be idle any more. Brothers are the top of this wave of people, if I idle around, I will definitely tire you all."

The brothers couldn't help but looked at each other, Wu You knew him better, and said with a smile, "It's good that you know."

Jia Cong had sorted out his thoughts at this moment, coughed, and said: "I am a lazy person. I just want to protect myself with a little bit of strength and sneakiness to resist the injustice of the world. Brothers probably know that I and Liu Feng, Xiaoxi and others often sneaked to the house in Mocheng Henan for gatherings, for this reason. Everything went smoothly. The source of today’s incident is that one day a while ago, I discovered that I actually had ambition. Ambition It's a strange thing. Even though I don't know what I want for a while, my heart is like a mirror: I don't want to live a dandy life, I don't want to be obliterated by everyone, I want to rule the world. Brothers, I'm only seven years old, say It actually looks quite small. However, compared with those people who had little ambition in ancient times, it is not too early to have ambition at the age of seven. An old man once told me that there is no fairness in the world. If you don’t complain about these injustices , the only way to cultivate great abilities is to win the opportunity to get out of the current situation and become a person who controls justice and injustice. I thought, at first I was self-protecting, not without ambition, but because of background, temperament and many other reasons, I don't think I can have that much ability. Now, I am unwilling to just sit and wait for others to trouble me, and then I will deal with it. Therefore, I want people, money, and greater strength. I want to be an untouchable person."

He paused, Wu You was extremely clever, and took advantage of this moment to clap his hands, Yao Er immediately clapped his hands, and all the brothers followed suit.

Jia Cong suddenly felt confident, and when the applause subsided, he smiled and said, "It's just that I can't do this alone. As the saying goes, a single tree cannot make a forest. To achieve great things, a group of people must work together. Since Everyone gathered here is a boat. I hope that each of us can become any brother who can rely on his back. We are not afraid of anything, except that there is trouble inside. I believe that right now Brothers, no one will betray, because I don't think anyone can give you more benefits than me, big enough to tempt you to betray brothers. Therefore, everyone in this hall is reliable. If anyone is in trouble, No matter how difficult it is to say it, please tell me. Concealment will create great opportunities for outsiders. For example, someone falls in love with someone who shouldn't be liked, or offends the Lord who can't afford to offend. Don't worry, let's think together There must be a way. Even if you fall in love with the princess and offend the emperor, we have a way to deal with it."

There was an uproar from the crowd.

Jia Cong said loudly: "Even if God bullies our brother, we will let him die!"

Wu You took the lead and shouted "Okay!" The brothers all made his blood boil and shouted, "Third Young General, we believe in you!"

Jia Cong nodded, and said again: "It's just that if you want to have the ability to clean up even the gods, you have to practice very hard. In the past, you only practiced martial arts and learned calligraphy every day, and you generally lived quite leisurely. Yes. If you want to follow me, there will be more things to learn immediately. I know that since my father picked you out, you are not people who have no ambition and would rather be lazy than work hard. I have to ask. Is there anyone who can't bear the hardship and wants to quit?"

Where can someone answer him?

Jia Cong smiled slightly: "Since this is the case, I will acquiesce that everyone is willing to stay. From now on, let's start to practice our skills steadily. Only by suffering and suffering can we become a master."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he didn't have time to feel the bullish atmosphere. He came in and said back, guarding the purple light outside: "Third Master, there are two old ladies from the yard outside. I looked at people and said that the old lady told us to move out quickly."

Jia Cong frowned: "Who is this person?"

Zi Guang said: "It's not a character, I've never seen it before."

Jia Cong said, "Shoot out!"

Zi Guang said: "I'm afraid they will make people feel uneasy if they howl."

Jia Cong glared at him: "I'm not capable." Yin asked with a smile, "Who can help me, tell those noisy women outside to shut up quickly?"

Two children jumped out immediately: "Let's go!"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Thank you!"

The two of them went out, and Jia Cong asked Hong Xiu to bring some tea and snacks for everyone to chat.Hong Xiu responded with a smile, and led 123 Romance Xiao Xiang to bring out a lot of food.These children didn't know Jia's mother at first, even if they knew the details, they were coaxed by Jia Cong's appearance, chatting happily while eating.

After a while, those two came back, and they swaggered and said, "Killed away."

Jia Cong hurriedly said: "It's been hard work, eat something to fill your stomach."

The two laughed and said: "It's hard work, I haven't even stretched my muscles and bones, it's so boring." Then they gathered together to eat and drink.

Another half day later, Ziguang came in and said, "Third Master, Sister Yuanyang is here."

Jia Cong said: "Please come in quickly." He said to everyone, "This man named Yuanyang is my grandmother's personal servant girl, and she has a lot of face around her, but now my father doesn't show his ancestors' face very much. "

Wu You said with a smile: "The third young general means that this maid can give her some face when she is free, and don't talk to her when she is busy."

Jia Cong nodded with a smile.

After a while, the mandarin ducks came in.Because she was the most important thing around Jiamu, Jia Cong thought she would come in with a dark face, but seeing her with an ordinary face, he glanced at the young people in the room, came up and saluted, "I have seen Mr. Cong."

Jia Cong waved his hand lightly: "Why should Yuanyang girl be so polite? I don't know if there is something wrong with the old ancestor sending you here?"

Yuanyang said: "The third master forgives the crime. The old ancestor has a few words for me to pass on to the third master."

Jia Cong said, "I'm all ears."

Yuanyang said: "The old ancestor suddenly heard that the third master moved to Lixiangyuan. Why didn't anyone tell her beforehand? Did she think she was dead?"

Jia Cong was surprised and said: "Why do you tell the old lady about such a daily matter? It has nothing to do with her."

Yuanyang wondered: "The old lady doesn't have anything to do with household matters? Then what has to do with her?"

Jia Congdao stretched out his hand and counted with his fingers: "What does the old lady want to eat in the morning? What does the old lady want to eat at noon? What does the old lady want to eat at night? What clothes does the old lady want to wear? Do the old lady want to go out and visit temples?" Inside? Does the old lady want to listen to the opera? These are her business."

Yuanyang sneered and said, "According to the third master, apart from the old lady's food and daily life, she can't control the things around the house?"

Jia Cong said, "Yes."

Yuanyang said angrily: "Is this going to be reversed?"

Jia Cong said, "Yes."

Yuanyang didn't know how to pick it up for a while, and was stunned.

Jia Cong said: "Miss Yuanyang is a real person. I just want to ask you one thing: the old ancestor has 1 dissatisfaction in his heart. How does she treat her? Does she have a way to let me move out? How many people does she have under her control? How about kung fu? Maybe it can beat my brothers?"

Yao'er took the lead in pinching his joints, all the teenagers followed, the room was filled with the sound of pinching joints, it was quite haunting.

Yuanyang was stunned, and said after a while: "Could it be that the third master dare not listen to what the old ancestor said?"

Jia Cong smiled: "Ever since the second wife was involved in the corruption case, have we three heard her old man's words? I can't remember. If Miss Yuanyang remembers, why don't you give me an example?"

The mandarin ducks mentioned immediately lost their momentum, and their stature became half shorter.

Jia Cong's face darkened, and he said: "Miss Yuanyang, I call you 'Miss' not because you are the number one celebrity around the old lady, but because I know that you are always self-respecting and self-loving, and never use power to bully others. It should be noted that even though the ancestors valued you, you are still just a girl. No matter how much I am raised by my aunt, I am also the master. You just said 'this is the opposite', yes. You, a servant, dare to yell at me as the master. It’s just the opposite. I’ll drag you out and beat you to death right now, even if my ancestor knew about it, there’s nothing I can do about it; I dared to betray you in front of her, do you believe it or not?”

Yuanyang gasped, thinking of her parents who had been sent back from Nanjing, trembled in vain, and fell to her knees with a plop.

"What's more, you are not a fool. My father will naturally respect her for a day, and don't worry about food and clothing. She doesn't want to point fingers at the other side. If you really tear your face, my father is a master who is not afraid of anything, second uncle But not necessarily. In the future, the situation of the second uncle will be in the hands of the old lady. If you can play with the cats and dogs and watch the theater with peace of mind, the second uncle can live in this mansion for two more years; if you want to point fingers, we three will definitely If you can’t hear or say a single word, don’t dream of those spring and autumn dreams that are as powerful as before, really, really, really, and important things are said three times—my father is angry, The family will be separated immediately, and Baoyu's elder brother and second uncle may not be able to get some money. The money is just repaid, the second wife and the ancestors have a lot of private treasuries, I am afraid that the second uncle's family will not be short of money with her help; It’s just that the second uncle’s official is too young, even younger than my elder brother. The old ancestor has seen ups and downs for so many years, so he naturally understands the difference between the inside of the Rongguo Mansion and the outside of the mansion. Otherwise, the Xue family hastily moved from our mansion. Going out, why didn’t you dare to go back to your own house, but went to the Wang’s house instead?” Jia Cong sighed, and said earnestly, “When the second uncle was pressing on my father’s head, how did my father endure it? Please ask the old lady I can bear it with my second uncle. We are all a family, so the amount of time we can endure is about the same."

Where did Yuanyang think that he would speak so openly?Not knowing how to respond at all, he knelt down and stared blankly for a long time, then said in a daze: "Isn't the elder afraid that the old lady will sue him for disobedience?"

Jia Cong snorted and said, "Oh? Who to sue? Who decides for her? A sage likes my father, so he must not make decisions for her. Otherwise, why do you think Lian's second brother has a higher official position than the second uncle, and the eldest sister is in the palace. Just wait until he is old enough to be released? The old sage doesn't like him anymore because his second uncle wrote the booklet and returned the money to the treasury first. Everyone in the world knows that the old lady is partial to the second uncle, so the old sage will not make decisions for her Excuse me, who is she going to find to decide for her? But don’t talk about the king’s law. In today’s world, the king’s law is the law of saints and old saints. Besides, my father has never been a filial son in so many years. If he is not filial, he will not be filial. , anyway, the same unfilial piety as before, there is no difference, isn't it?"

When Yuanyang heard about the "sage and old sage", she knew that the old lady and the second wife were gone; after hearing it, her heart became more and more like being soaked in bile.Startled again, he couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just a messenger. If I'm rude, I hope the third master will forgive me." Nai kowtowed.

Jia Cong nodded, without calling her up, and said: "Therefore, I also ask Miss Yuanyang to pass the message back to the old lady. For the sake of face, as long as no one comes to provoke my father, my father will live with her and my second uncle." It's all right. If someone comes to provoke him, the ancestors know that my father is not a person who cares about face. At that time, many things will be ignored."

Yuanyang suddenly forced a smile and said: "I want to ask for a gossip. If the third master is willing to satisfy the curiosity of the slave, it will be fulfilled. It is only natural to be unhappy."

Jia Cong said: "Tell me, let's see if I am happy."

"I just wonder when did the master get the grace?"

Jia Cong took a closer look at her and saw that her eyes were slightly closed and her body was trembling, obviously she was terrified.Naizan said: "I never thought that Miss Yuanyang would be so loyal. It's obvious that the words of looking for death are not ordered by your ancestors, but something you thought of temporarily? You really dare to say it. Do you think that the face of your ancestors is still great?" , Are you so old that I dare not drag you out and beat you to death, or are you so loyal to your ancestors that you dare to risk your life to win her this sentence?"

The brothers yelled "Kill to death" from the sidelines, and the murderous aura filled the whole room, and the mandarin ducks were so frightened that they lay on the ground and couldn't move.

Jia Cong didn't intend to really kill her, he just had to scare Jia's mother, Yin sneered: "For your luck, I, Jia Cong, don't like killing women. Get lost."

It took Yuanyang half a day to stand up tremblingly, kowtowed to him, and ran away as if fleeing for his life.

After a while, a man named Tian Gengzi asked, "General...is he a saint?"

Jia Cong said with a smile: "What I said just now is all lies, you don't believe a word. My father has nothing to do with the saint for half a copper coin. He is using his name to scare the old lady."

The crowd didn't understand even more, and Wu You also asked, "Aren't you afraid that they will know the truth in the future?"

Jia Cong snorted, "How do they know the truth? Ask the sage? How do you ask? Who is the sage, can she see it if she wants? Besides, even if she sees it, does she dare to ask such things?"

Everyone who said it was dumb.After a pause, the room burst into laughter.

After laughing, Jia Cong hurriedly sent Lan Xiang to tell his father the nonsense one by one. When Lan Xiang came back, he brought Jia Amnesty's two words: "You bastard!"

Because on the first day of living in Jia's mansion, Jia Cong unceremoniously refuted Shi Taijun's face, and even borrowed the name of the saint by the way, these children were very happy, and they slept quite peacefully that night.

When Yuanyang went back, everyone was frightened, and cried to Jia Mu: "The third master really wanted to kill me at that moment."

Mother Jia comforted her with a few words, but she believed Jia Cong's nonsense and slapped the case in vain, thinking to herself: I am afraid that the sage, concubine Hui and the boss conspired to sing a play for the 80 taels of silver.It's a pity that the second son's family was blinded by wealth and honor, and devoted themselves to seeking a future for Yuan Chun, but never realized that this was a false pretense.Can't help but stay up all night.

In the early morning of the next day, she leaned on the kang and sighed: "Since the sage has no intention of giving the big girl a concubine, she should come out earlier."
