The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Historian, a family of two lords, looks very prominent, but in fact only a few people know that the historian is already strong on the outside but on the inside.

This is not only reflected in the fact that historians are no longer in important positions in the court, but also reflected in the family house.

Who would have known that the majestic Bowlinghou's mansion has been reduced to the ridiculous situation of relying on female relatives to do needlework to subsidize the family in secret!

After bidding farewell to the enthusiastic Mrs. Baolinghou, Jia Lian left the historian and came to the carriage.

Jia Lian specially built this carriage, which is very large and luxurious, and was inspired by Yangzhou when he went to Jiangnan at the beginning of the year.At that time, the magistrate of Yangzhou and others made a special trip for him to build a luxury car of the "RV" type for his daily travel in Yangzhou.

Although Jia Lian did not refuse at the time, he did not brazenly bring the stolen goods to the capital.

However, he really felt that such a carriage was more comfortable and convenient to sit in than the standard carriages of the Jia family who rode alone. Thinking that Sister Feng was also a show-off person, Jia Lian simply asked someone to build such a carriage, which was basically not inferior to that of Yangzhou. The luxury car with the size of a carriage came, and it was exclusively for him and Sister Feng to travel.

Anyway, with his status as Marquis of Zhenyuan, having such a carriage is nothing at all, as long as he doesn't want to tie six or seven or eight horses in front of him...

Inside the carriage, the little girl Shi Xiangyun was curiously studying the layout of the carriage, when she saw Jia Lian coming in, she straightened her appearance immediately.

Jia Lian smiled at her, then sat down, opened the curtain of the car and ordered the return trip.

Although it was the first time for Shi Xiangyun to be in the same carriage with a man other than her elder brother and elders, she didn't seem too coy. After a while, she found that Jia Lian hadn't spoken, but she asked first: "My aunt was pulling the carriage. What did you say?"

"It's nothing, just explaining something."

Xiang Yun hesitated for a moment, and said, "She must be pestering you to ask my two elder brothers for an official position. Just ignore her."

Shi Xiangyun knew that although the historians and the Jia family belonged to the same four big families, outsiders would say that the four big families were connected, but in fact, only he himself knew that the relationship between the historians and the Jia family was not very close.At least in these years, the relationship between the other three families and the Jia family is far inferior.

The reason, seems to be that her two uncles have something to do with the fact that the two brothers, Jia Zheng and Jia She, don't like each other very much.

If it wasn't for Jia Mu's relationship, I'm afraid the relationship between the two families would have been even more uneventful.

Therefore, Jia Lian rarely visited historians.

Now everyone knows that Jia Lian is reused by the emperor and wants to build a new barracks for the forbidden army.Even if outsiders don't know the mystery of it, but just looking at the "Forbidden Army Organization", many people want to get in.

Her two cousins ​​have almost grown up, but they are incapable of writing or martial arts. Her uncle and aunt have long been planning for the future of the two of them.After the news that Jia Lian was going to set up a firearms battalion and that he was the commander came out, Xiangyun himself had heard his uncle and aunt discuss more than once, and wanted to follow Jia Lian's path.

Especially her aunt, the most powerful person.

This time Jia Lian came to pick her up in person, how could her aunt not seize the opportunity, and it must be because of this that she dismissed her before.

The so-called hard feelings, Xiangyun felt that if Jia Lian was in an embarrassing situation because Jia Lian came to pick her up, how could she feel at ease, so she said so.Perhaps in her bones, she also regarded herself as a member of the historian, knowing that her aunt's words and actions would easily make Jia Lian look down on her.

She also has self-esteem.

Jia Lian smiled and looked at Shi Xiangyun who looked serious. Although she didn't know the specific thoughts in her heart, she felt that this girl was really reasonable.

To be honest, he really thought that Mrs. Bowling Hou was annoying before, and she was so philistine and courteous that she didn't behave like a Mrs. Hou.

It is rare that at such a young age, Xiangyun can see the twists and turns of the world of these adults.

Recalling that although this girl is younger in the original book, she is the most quick-witted and quick-witted. She is as talented as Xue Lin and surpasses Sanchun, so she can't help liking her a little more.

So he patted Xiangyun's head and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you, we just ignore her."

Jia Lian's pampering words and actions made Xiangyun feel a little uncomfortable, and his little face was rarely flushed.

Seeing this, Jia Lian didn't do much. After all, no matter how young Xiangyun was, she was still a lady, and besides, she wasn't her own sister, so it wouldn't be appropriate to behave too intimately. So after stopping, she leaned against the car window and recuperated.

Xiangyun was originally lively, seeing that Jia Lian was not unhappy because of his aunt, he lost his joy, instead moved closer to Jia Lian and asked about other things.

"I heard from you earlier that Sister Bao, Sister Lin, and Sister Tanchun set up a poetry club in the garden. Everyone is a poet, and even each has a nickname. Is this true?"

"Ah."

"Okay, such a fun thing, they actually hide it from me!"

Jia Lian didn't open his eyes, but half-folded his hands, only smiled and said, "Didn't you send me to call you?"

Jia Lian's relaxed and freehand words made Xiangyun not know how to answer for a while.

She admired it very much.After all, she also knew that Jia Lian was a capable and high-ranking official. This could be seen just from the attitude of her uncle and aunt who had high eyes towards Jia Lian.

But from such a person, not only did she not feel Enwei, but even such kindness.He was so casual even when talking to a little girl like her, saying that Sister Lin and the others sent him here...

According to Xiangyun's little knowledge, apart from the elders of the Jia family, the only one who can assign Jia Lian to do things is probably the emperor.

So, aren't Sister Lin and the others more powerful than the emperor?
Thinking about this absurdly in his heart, his eyes stared at Jia Lian's face without blinking.Because Jia Lian's eyes were closed, she couldn't see her scrutiny, so she happened to take a bold look at him. How could he have a good opinion of Lian's second brother, who was so handsome and so incomparable to thousands of others.

But in the blink of an eye, those idle thoughts in her heart were completely thrown out of her mind, and Jia Lian's handsome and resolute face appeared in her big eyes. Suddenly she felt very embarrassed, and touched the hot With a small face, he quickly sat back in place.

Jia Lian knew that Xiangyun was easy to talk, and noticed that she was quiet, opened his eyes and saw that she was sitting with her head buried, thought she was in some discomfort, and was about to ask, when Zhao'er's voice came from outside: "Second master, the Zhen family has arrived. "

"The Zhen family?"

Xiangyun raised his head and looked at Jia Lian curiously.

Jia Lian explained with a smile: "Come here to pick up your other sister."

Although what Jia Lian said that day was that Zhen Yuhuan would pick her up after recovering from her illness, but for Daiyu's sake, Jia Lian felt that unless the girl was really sick, she would definitely take her back to play with Daiyu today. .

He himself felt that he really doted on Daiyu, but unfortunately, that little girl was not a reciprocal person, and grew up too slowly.

In the Zhen family, since the incident with the crown princess, naturally no one is happy.

But Jia Lian came over in person, and the Zhen family still paid attention to it.

"Well, it's not good for Huan'er to bother you anymore, it's too troublesome."

In the main hall, Mrs. Zhen's family was sitting in the main seat, looking at the handsome Jia Lian, she said with some embarrassment.

"What's the trouble? The younger sisters in the family miss her very much, and ask me about her situation over and over again.

I thought that Sister Yuhuan was a very talented and outstanding woman, and it just so happened that the younger sisters in our family were not considered vulgar. Now that they are holding a poetry club together, without Sister Yuhuan, the founder of the mountain, she will always be less interesting. That's why I came here to invite her. "

"This……"

Mrs. Zhen's family really had no intention of letting her daughter come to Jia's house again, because she felt that after what happened that day, even if Jia's family didn't see the jokes of their Zhen's family like other mansions, I am afraid that Mother Jia and others would not be able to see her. They don't have much hope for the future of the Zhen family.

The princess is jealous and has a bad heart, and Huan'er will probably struggle in the prince's mansion in the future.In this way, others will naturally doubt whether their Zhen family's investment this time will bear fruit and allow the Zhen family to continue its glory...

"Don't worry, ma'am, since I invited sister Huan'er today, I will naturally arrange and take care of everything after she arrives at my house. If sister Huan'er makes any mistakes or suffers any grievances in our house, my wife will take care of the younger sister herself in the future." Just ask."

Hearing that Jia Lian had said everything to this point, and then met her daughter's silent but earnest eyes, Mrs. Zhen's family sighed: "Well, since you, an older brother, came to pick her up with sincerity, if I am more polite If she refuses, she should blame me, the mother."

Mrs. Zhen's family knew some of Jia Lian's situation, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a day-to-day event, but seeing that he really followed the words of the day and came to pick him up in person, and his daughter was mentally depressed at home these days, getting more and more haggard. The youthful vigor of the past.After thinking about it for a while, I felt that it would be okay to let my daughter visit Jia's house for a few days. Anyway, there are many sisters in their family, which can just relieve her depression.

So hastily arranged many loyal and reliable servant girls, let them go with Jia Lian together with their daughters.

In the carriage, Shi Xiangyun, who had his first experience, stood up obediently when he heard the movement outside the curtain of the carriage.The space inside the carriage is large enough to be regarded as a small room.

But when she saw the person who came in first, she was stunned for a while, and then she stepped forward to pull the person with joy, and asked with a smile: "Sister Lin, why is it you? Didn't Second Brother Lian say to pick up the other one?" Sister, what kind of charades are you two playing?"
