The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

But it is said that on this day, Jia's mother sent Yuanyang to bring a little girl to the Yingchun room. It happened that Daiyu Tanchun and Xichun were all there.Yuanyang greeted the girls and said: "The old lady sent me to give clothes to the second girl."

Everyone hurriedly asked, "What clothes?"

The mandarin ducks hurriedly brought up the bundles of Maodiqiu, and said with a smile: "Second master Bao came back today, and it happened that the third master Cong also came to pay his respects. The ancestors were happy and asked me to find these two cloaks and reward them. Pian Cong The third master looked at it and said that the color of the clothes is too bright, he is not suitable for a man, so it is better to send it to the second girl."

Tanchun saw that the two of them had only one bag each, and immediately realized that the other must have been given to Daiyu by Baoyu, and said with a smile: "Blessed is the second sister, open it quickly and see what good clothes Conger gave you. .”

Yingchun opened her mouth to speak, but Daiyu squeezed it and swallowed it quickly.

Yuanyang hurriedly handed the burden to Siqi, who opened it and took out the fur. Seeing that it was really golden and emerald, they all gathered around and admired it.Siqi tried to put it on Yingchun.Although it is said that Li Wan and Yingchun are in charge of Wang Xifeng's pregnancy these days, Li Wan usually does not like to make too many decisions, and most of the important things are decided by Yingchun.Yingchun is peaceful in nature, but most of the housekeepers and ladies are not easy-going lamps, which also forced them to show some majesty.Therefore, wearing this cloak is in vain to give off a noble air, which is so eye-catching.Siqi clapped his hands beside him and said, "Young girl is so pretty."

Yuanyang also hurriedly praised a few words, and then said: "According to the old lady's intention, this one is for Miss Lin, but Mr. Pian Cong said that Miss Lin likes green, so I changed that one for her."

Yingchun took off her cloak and asked with a smile, "Miss Lin is right here, quickly take out the green one and have a look."

Daiyu frowned, and asked, "What did Cong'er say?"

Yuanyang then narrated what Jiamu Baoyu said just now what Jia Cong said.Daiyu was amused.She didn't really like any color, Jia Cong knew it.Presumably he was sincerely trying to stir things up, and wanted to find a way to get Yingchun that furry fur.Can't help but take a closer look at the mandarin duck.In the early years, Jia Cong once used her to make a show of arrogance, but she didn't take it to heart at all, and she never said bad things about Jia Cong secretly, which is a good thing.

Because the azalea is not here at the moment, the mandarin ducks unfold the bird gold for Daiyu, and the bicolor is shining very gorgeously.The mandarin duck draped it on her shoulders for her, and said, "The old lady said, this is called peacock gold, and it is made of peacock feathers twisted and woven by skilled craftsmen in Russia."

Daiyu laughed and said, "I didn't know Sophia August could wear this."

Xichun asked, "What's so special about Sophie? It's a mouthful."

Daiyu said: "It's just that after the Russian country that made this dress, there is quite a legacy of Emperor Zetian. I'm afraid I will become a heroine in the future."

Tanchun was startled: "The heroine?"

Daiyu said: "It's not surprising that there are many female protagonists in Western countries." At this moment, the mandarin ducks have tidied up for her. They watched it for a long time, and then compared with Yingchunli.That's all for Tanchun, Xichun couldn't help but envy her eyes, but she didn't say anything.

After the mandarin ducks had left, Xichun first asked, "What does the empress of Russia look like?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "I've never seen it before. I also heard from Cong'er. If the fourth girl thinks it's interesting, why don't you ask him to ask."

Sure enough, Xichun sent someone to Lixiangyuan to call Jia Cong.

Jia Cong was having a headache, why should he get two more clothes? When he saw the painting, he immediately thought it was that.At first glance, the four older sisters were all there, and the sparrow gold wool and the duck fur were all dazzling on the tree, so they looked at Xichun and made a bow: "Fourth older sister, give me some time, I'm trying to figure something out. .”

Xichun was taken aback: "What?"

Jia Congdao pouted at Mu Shi's end: "The gown, I know two pieces are missing, but this thing seems to be for offering, and I don't know where to get it for a while."

Xichun was stunned, a little annoyed, and a little bit dumbfounded: "Who asked you for clothes! When did I mention clothes?"

Tan Chun hurriedly said: "That was originally given by the old lady. She only has two clothes. Where did you get them? Besides, we have never worn these two clothes. Mo Chengri wonders if we have them or not. I miss you so much." The book is important."

Jia Cong said: "The method is thought up by people, isn't it just two pieces of clothes. You can't give the servants a chance to chew their tongues, right?"

Said Xichun immediately shed tears.Although the four girls had the same food and clothing expenses, Yingchun needless to say that Jia Cong made gorgeous offerings all these years, Jia Huan had to keep a low profile and all the good things he got outside were sent to Tanchun's house. Daiyu is also used to Jia Mu and Lin Hai, but she has no one to help her, and she is from the East Mansion, so the servants will inevitably be a little snobby and make irresponsible remarks.

Jia Cong hurriedly went up to him and said with a flattering smile: "I know Fourth Sister has no shortage of clothes, but this cloak is really good, but the old lady's two are too big, I'll go and Fourth Sister to find one that fits well."

Tanchun said with a smile: "Forget it, the co-author is because my fourth sister and I are a bit shorter." Yin looked at Xichun and said, "Let him do it, anyway, he has the ability."

Jia Cong said: "We can get two pieces in our house. It's not a rare thing. I'll look for someone to find out." Nai asked, "It's not for making clothes. Why did the fourth sister call me here?" ?”

Xichun wiped away her tears and said, "I just heard Sister Lin say something about Sofitel, she doesn't know much about it, so I'll ask you."

Jia Cong turned to look at Lin Daiyu: "Sophia. Which Sophia?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "The fourth girl is learning the tongue but not being quick. It is the Russian Empress Sophia August that you heard about at the base that day."

Jia Cong said "Oh", and said: "She was originally a princess of a small principality in Germany. Although she was not liked by her husband, she was a remarkable woman. I'm afraid she will be even more remarkable in the future. One of my husbands predicted that this girl would sooner or later It will become a great tool, and it will be called the Great Emperor in history books in the future." The gentleman's surname is Li and his name is a history character.

Tan Chunqi said: "Since she is not loved by her husband, how can she be like Empress Wu?"

Jia Cong said with a smile: "The heroine's path is also different. In my opinion, she is quite capable of controlling the general situation, and she will definitely not lose to Wu Zhao."

Then I talked about the life of Catherine II.Because she has not ascended the throne yet, and many things about her in the future have not yet happened, Jia Cong took her later story as a prediction of a certain gentleman of his.The national conditions and secular customs of the two countries are completely different. I don’t know how many times I explained the Russian people’s conditions in the middle. I talked about it for two hours. Even the dinner was passed in the middle of the talk, and I barely finished.

After listening to the story, the four girls were extremely excited and chattered endlessly, but Jia Cong was not allowed to leave, and they threw him new questions while they were talking.Until nearly three o'clock, Yingchun hurriedly said: "It's really too late today, and it won't be too late tomorrow." Everyone agreed, and stood up one by one to exercise their muscles.

Xichun sighed: "This girl is so courageous, although I don't know her, just listening to this comment, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "No matter how she is, she is a foreign monarch. The border between our two countries is so long. I am afraid that war will inevitably happen in the future. The more courageous she is, the more troublesome she is for our country."

Xichun was taken aback, and said: "Why do you want to start a war? Isn't it good to have a good relationship?"

Jia Cong sighed: "God knows! The dispute between countries is natural. There is only so much land. We want more, and they also want it. Why don't my fourth sister become my ambassador to Russia in the future to persuade her chant."

Xichun blushed: "Even if I want to go, I don't know how to speak old Maozi's language, but she doesn't understand it." Everyone laughed.

Jia Cong laughed a couple of times, took his leave and went back to Lixiangyuan.

The next day, Jia Amnesty discussed with his two sons how they discussed and analyzed the script of the play "If the sage doesn't establish a prince for now, I'm afraid Cong'er reminded him for a while".Jia Lian went back to the ministry to show off secretly to the two good colleagues, in order to play a fool; Jia Cong rushed to Feng's house in a hurry.

Feng Ziying listened to him for a long time, and said with a smile: "There is no need to worry, you are just a child, who can really care about it?"

Jia Cong shook his head like a rattle: "No, no! Princes and princes are the two most untouchable things in the world. I have to go out to avoid the limelight, even if people laugh at me as sentimental. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case." Turning around, "How about I go south to find Uncle Lin? It seems that he should come back this year."

Feng Ziying said: "Well, Mr. Lin should return to Beijing this year."

Jia Cong hit his palm with his fist and said: "That's it! This little disciple misses his mentor, and will go all the way to welcome Mr. back to Beijing!"

Just now Feng Ziying heard him say "Princes and lords can't be touched", she was secretly happy, and said with a smile: "If you think too much, it's fine; if there is really a prince staring at you, this move is like 300 taels of silver, and I'm afraid it will get worse when you come back." It's eye-catching."

Jia Cong hurriedly asked, "Do you have a good idea?"

Feng Ziying said: "Why do you need to avoid going out? There are new things in Beijing every day, and there are so many people. Even if you really annoy me, I'm afraid I will forget you after the New Year?"

Jia Cong snorted and said, "If you don't want to be a prince, you will forget me after the New Year. If you want to be a prince, you may think about who the sage said or looked at every day. How can it be so easy?" Forget. I don’t want to mess with the ones at the back.”

Feng Ziying was right after thinking about it, so she comforted her: "You just need to live in peace, don't go wandering outside every day."

Jia Cong curled his lips and sighed: "It was a good thing to meet a saint." Then he went back with a drooping face.

Not long after Feng Ziying reported the matter, the saint couldn't help but nodded, and said to Situ Pan, "Jia She, this little son, is really a bit like you when you were a child, and you know that you don't know the party or the crowd when you are young."

Situ Pan smiled and said: "I just saw him for the first time and felt a bit like him. This is good, so as not to mess around in the future. This guy is very courageous and has a lot of tricks. If he forms a party with any prince, I'm afraid there will be one." Messed up."

The sage said: "I originally wanted to use him to test those boys, to see if they would get on with this boy without haste. He wanted to hide himself."

Situ Pan thought for a while, and said, "Don't worry. The nephews are still young, and we can't handle them right now. If they come out to make trouble again, they will really be used by those few."

The saint suddenly frowned: "In the past two years, the few of them have communicated more and more."

Situ Pan was also worried: "It's strange, the grievances and grievances were so deep in the past. I have to ask someone to fiddle with them a few more times, so that they can collapse."

The saint nodded: "You arrange it."

Situ Pan responded.

A few days later, Gong Kun rushed into Lixiangyuan with a bitter face, looking for Jia Cong and said, "I know what the Eighth Prince is planning."

Jia Cong hurriedly asked, "What?"

Gong Kun said in a low voice: "A few days ago, a matchmaker found the wife of shopkeeper Jia Si, and wanted to marry their boss. It was a niece of the eighth prince's grandma's family, but it was a little far away."

Jia Cong jumped up immediately: "You're kidding!"

Gong Kun smiled wryly and said, "Why should I be joking? Now Mrs. Jia Si has seen that girl, and she is very satisfied."

Jia Cong rushed out with a "wow".

Yao'er was studying his book in the room at the moment, seeing him like this he hurriedly asked "what's the matter".

Jia Cong tugged at his arm and said anxiously: "Recently someone told you that your elder brother's wife is Li Qizhi's cousin!"

Yao'er was taken aback: "Brother Qi's cousin? He never mentioned it to me."

"It's also the niece of the Eighth Prince." Jia Cong stomped his feet and gritted his teeth, "What a twist, this is trying to trap you."

Yao'er said: "I went back that day and heard from my mother that she had seen that girl, she was just an ordinary person, and said many good things about her, and everything seemed to be fine." Yin frowned again, "If the eighth prince is so I'm here to expose this matter to you, if we do things as usual, I'm afraid we'll regret it immediately. Could it be that he doesn't want to make this marriage? Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to expose it when we get married in the future?"

Jia Cong snorted and said, "This move is really clever. The fourth aunt has already taken a fancy to his niece and daughter. If you two don't agree, both the fourth aunt and your elder brother will feel unhappy. Now that it's come to this point, he thinks This relationship is likely to be formed. After all, the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt are shameless people. If you break it in the future, you will probably think that he is plotting against your family and will be angry. This will be earlier If it's broken, he can pretend to just know about it just now and come to remind us. Besides, his niece must be a good one, and the girl next to him may not be so good when my fourth aunt looks at her in the future."

Yao'er thought about it for a long time, and asked: "In your opinion, is it possible to get married?"

Jia Cong waved his hands again and again: "It's absolutely impossible. The relatives are the same as the flesh and blood. In the future, your nephew will have relatives with his family, and everything will be controlled. This group of people is much more ruthless than us. We value flesh and blood, and they don't care about it." Paying attention to it is to give them inexhaustible benefits."

Yao'er nodded when she heard the words: "I see."

Jia Cong asked, "What are you going to tell Fourth Aunt?"

Yao'er laughed and said, "It's easy and tight." Then he put on his clothes and went back immediately.Jia Cong watched helplessly as he disappeared before returning, feeling very upset.

Yao'er didn't come back until the next day, and when he saw Jia Cong, he shook his head and said, "It's not easy."

Jia Cong hurriedly asked what was the matter.

Yao'er said: "The other day I went back and whispered to my mother, that woman is the niece of the eighth prince's mother's family, the eighth prince may have objections, if there is a mistake in the future, even my elder brother and our family will be implicated Guillotine. My mother was frightened, and immediately took me to the matchmaker’s house to repent. The matchmaker yelled at the sky and the earth, but the two of us just refused. Because I said, I went to their house to talk. Passed together."

Jia Cong couldn't help interjecting: "How about going?"

Yao'er said: "It seems that he is a good family, and his father is also very calm. I told him alone that we just found out that their family is from the family of the Eighth Prince's Grandmother, so we dare not mess with them, we just think we are timid and afraid of getting into trouble. If it is said that this incident was purely accidental, I said, would you believe me instead? His father sighed, "He didn't even look at my elder brother, but he was forced by the clan uncle, the father of Li Qizhi."

Jia Cong clapped his hands and said, "Isn't that just right? One shot and two shots."

Yao'er smiled wryly and said, "But my elder brother secretly met him some time ago, and he has already taken a fancy to him. His fancy is the same as my mother's, but it's not the same thing."
