Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 135

Brother Rong thought, he also has a bottom line and principles.

Although that bottom line occasionally fluctuates!

Climbing up to the second floor, Jia Rong went to the room of the master and buddies.Everyone inside has already started to eat, one by one holding spring pancakes with vegetable rolls inside.

From time to time, Jia Zheng showed off his talent and learning, and asked a few juniors about the origin of spring pancakes and the custom of February [-], and talked about the meaning of rolling spring, biting spring, and eating spring.Finally, it talks about poetry and songs.

"Brother Rong should read more books when he comes back from the yamen on weekdays. We can't let this go." Jia Zheng taught.

Brother Rong had a headache for a while, he was not an elegant person, he could recite a few ancient poems and he had memorized it.He responded dumbfounded, "I will definitely put more thought into it in the future."

He also doesn't know why these people are always mentioning poems and songs!Idlers are fine, officials who speak and write poems and songs, and those who are preparing for the imperial examinations speak and write poems and songs.

Can these poems and songs fill the stomachs of the people, or can they bring peace to the world?

It's not that Brother Rong wants to think this way, but because he hears such things a lot, he feels uncomfortable.Although I am lazy and not a person who cares about the country and the people, I can still do some practical things.

In the book that Jia Rong once read, it was written like this: In the eyes of some people, it seems that there is no need to care about politics, future, or human ideals.

Before, Brother Rong thought he was like that, but now he thinks that these old men in Xifu are like that.In other words, most of the intellectuals in this world are just like Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu, they don't care about anything.

Therefore, this is also the reason why I have respect for King Zhongshun.

No matter what the purpose is, at least the Thirteenth Master is seriously thinking about the people and the people.

These guys are not even as good as a bastard like me.

Brother Rong shook his head slightly, and suddenly looked at the last little Jialan.What I have done is right or wrong.Will it be an idle official who can only write stereotyped poems, or a good official who cares about the people?

Suddenly he gave a wry smile, he really thought too much, how old is Jia Lan.When I have the opportunity to instill in him some ideas of serving the people in the future.

Although I can't do it myself, it doesn't hinder the spread of this idea.

Anyway, it's not my son, let him do more good things when he grows up, it can be regarded as his contribution to the world.

Jia Rong thought shamelessly, stared at Jia Lan and nodded, frightening the young Lang Geer to feel uncomfortable.

But Jia Zheng thought that Brother Rong was asking Jia Lan for help, and said: "Lan'er is so old, don't ask him to save you, I have to write a poem about the occasion today."

Baoyu booed from the side, saying: "It's the extreme, it's the extreme. On the day of spring, there is no reason not to sing spring."

Brother Rong frowned and glanced at Baoyu, boy, don't force me.

Baoyu couldn't understand Jia Rong's eyes at all, and was still smiling to himself, quietly waiting for Brother Rong to compose a poem with an elegant look.

Jia Rong sighed and went to Jia Zheng and said, "I really can't write poems about spring. But today, when I heard the second grandpa talk about spring, I suddenly remembered something. I don’t know what the situation in Yixue is like now. It’s just that I became the officer, and when I returned home from outside the city, it was too late and I didn’t have time to ask about Yixue.”

Hearing Brother Rong's words, Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment, feeling something was wrong.Why are you talking about Shangyi School again?Feeling very anxious, he said repeatedly: "Yi Xue has recovered recently, if you don't believe me, you can ask Lang Geer."

Like Li Wan since he was a child, Lang Geer never talked too much about foreign affairs, adhering to the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, so he picked himself out.Said: "Lan'er is devoted to her studies and has never cared about foreign affairs. I don't know the specific situation."

Baoyu was really flustered at the moment.Lang Ge'er picked himself up, but made Baoyu, his second uncle, miserable.If Jia Lan said that, wouldn't it make Jia Zheng think that he had caused some trouble in the righteous school?
There is nothing wrong with it!

Baoyu trembled secretly, but he just skipped a day of class.And because Xue Pan didn't want to stay there, he dragged Li Gui to the school, and occasionally played bickering games with him in class.

It's just that these things can't be known to Mr. Zheng. If this is passed into the ears of Mr. Zheng, how can it be paid off?
Seeing Baoyu bowing his head in silence, Jia Zheng knew that he was a ghost, so he snorted.If it weren't for seeing that this was in the East Mansion, I wish I could be beaten with a stick right now.

Jia Rong said again: "I'm ashamed to say that the family affairs are entrusted to me, but now I don't have too many inquiries in the world. If the second grandpa is free one day, he can go to Yixue to ask Mr. Li and Mr. Duan Lang. After a while, Rong'er doesn't have to worry so much anymore."

When Baoyu heard this, he suddenly looked up at Brother Rong.

His legs were trembling uncontrollably by now.Ask Mr. Zheng to inquire about the situation of Yixue, this... I will not be beaten to death?I can't pass the day.

Mr. Zheng said at this moment: "It's not necessary for me to go there, Rong'er is just a matter of setting a time. Every few days, it will cost a lot to have people bring the two gentlemen and the owner of the museum to the mansion to ask about the situation. How many hours?"

Seeing that Baoyu was obviously relieved, Jia Rong couldn't help snickering, but she was also very speechless to Jia Zheng.He obviously wanted Baoyu to make progress, but he, as a Laozi, didn't want to pay at all. How could Baoyu make progress?

Reluctantly said: "That's the only way!"

Afterwards, finally everyone lost their mind to talk about poetry and songs, and Baoyu didn't dare to intervene in half a word.

Brother Rong was also very happy, finally able to savor the taste of the spring pancakes.

At this time, it was completely dark outside, and a group of maidservants came in with candlesticks, and many candlesticks were placed everywhere in the room.Just for a moment, I felt that the whole world became brighter.

Jia Rong also saw these maids hanging candlesticks and lanterns all over Tianxiang Tower.Not only that, but looking out from the Tianxiang Building, the entire Ningguo Mansion is also brightly lit.

Are candles and lanterns free?What a waste!
Brother Rong is very distressed!
He glanced at the open flames around him vigilantly, not to set the Tianxiang Tower on fire.This place is made of wood everywhere, and a fire can not only burn the building, but also directly turn itself into a scorched corpse.

It's not worth being burned to death by a fire!

"Turn out all the candles, just keep the lanterns in the room." Cautious Jia Rong approached the woman in charge and asked them to put out all the uncontrolled open flames in Tianxiang Building.As the saying goes, a gentleman doesn't build a dangerous wall, if it is going to catch fire, the Ningrong and Rongfu will really be wiped out.

He was still worried, so he asked the maidservant to go to the mansion to spread the word, and asked Lai Sheng and his wife to put out all the candles in the mansion.It doesn't matter if the Ningguo Mansion is burned down, it's all money, so there can be no chances.

"Brother Rong, what's the reason? Lighting candles to repel insects and ants, why did they stop?" Jia Zheng asked.

Bad habits are bad habits.

Brother Rong smiled lightly and replied, "Ningguo Mansion doesn't like this."

Xue Pan laughed at him, "Are you reluctant to part with candles?"

I can't bear to part with the candles, candles are also extremely expensive in this day and age, each one is money.Jia Rong didn't deny it either, she nodded and said, "Uncle Pan understands me best."

Several people at the same table laughed and said nothing.It's just a ceremony, and the fireworks will be lit later, as long as the meaning comes to mind.

Several people drank a few cups, spring pancake rolls with wine, although strange, but also interesting.

After a while, it seemed that the time had come, and there was only a swish, and a spark broke through the darkness, and exploded in the night with a bang.

Not only their Ningguo Mansion, but the entire sky above the inner city of Shenjing was illuminated by fireworks at this time.

The sound of swish, swish, and bang is endless!
It seems that these fireworks are scrambling to light up the night and bring light to the people of Shenjing.

The female relatives in the next room couldn't bear it anymore, they left their seats one after another, walked up to the railing and looked up at the sky.

"so beautiful!"

"Yes, it's so beautiful!" Brother Rong sighed softly, not knowing who answered it.Quietly watch the fireworks that go up with a swish, ignite the night sky with a bang, and then disappear into the world.

One by one, it made him feel complicated.

Feeling homesick!
The fireworks over the city of Shenjing lasted for a quarter of an hour, and this quarter of an hour was definitely the most difficult quarter of an hour for the camps in Shenjing.

Fortunately, nothing happened tonight, and many people who did not know their names secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After the fireworks cleared, tonight's banquet came to an end.

One by one, with excitement on their faces.Among them, there are a few people who look lonely.Such as Jia Rong who is inexplicably homesick, Jia Baoyu who doesn't know why, and Xue Baochai who is elusive.

Brother Rong escorted the guests off in sedan chairs one by one, and watched Youshi lead the Ningfu women's family back, and then found his little daughter-in-law and went back to the courtyard.

The daughter-in-law drank some wine today. Although she was not drunk, she was a little confused.

Xiangling and Que'er waited for Grandma Rong to lie down, while Brother Rong went to wash her body a little.After all, in the afternoon, I was sweating all over from exhaustion, my body was sticky, and I always felt uncomfortable without taking a bath.

After a hot bath, even worries are much less.

When Uncle Rong entered the room, Grandma Rong was already fast asleep.

I was still thinking about taking this opportunity to make a fool of myself tonight, but it seemed like it was a waste of time.Jia Rong shook her head, and waited for Xiangling Que'er to help her change her jacket and leave the inner room, then lifted the quilt and got in.

Habitually, she held Qin Keqing lightly, and was about to fall asleep, but found that the little girl's eyelashes moved.

But the little daughter-in-law is not asleep yet!

She is pretending to be asleep!
It must be because I was afraid that I would ask her what she and Sister Feng talked about.Brother Rong smiled lightly, and sighed deliberately: "I don't know what kind of blessings I cultivated in my previous life to marry a good wife who is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also considerate and lovely."

Seeing Qin Keqing blink slightly from the corner of her eyes, Jia Rong was even more sure that Ke'er's daughter-in-law was not asleep.Then he continued: "It wasn't until I met you that I finally realized that there is love in this world, but it doesn't appear often. Once it appears, I can't bear to let it down."

Qin Keqing's closed eyes moved even more violently!

Brother Rong found Keqing's hand, held it between his hands, and gently brought it to his lips for a kiss.Said: "I want to hold this hand, through tomorrow, through this life, through life after life."

"Hmph." Qin Keqing had never heard such nasty words before, one sentence was soft-hearted, the second sentence was heart-warming, and the third sentence was unbearable.With a smile on his face, he hummed to Uncle Rong. "The uncle will coax Ke'er."

"It's the daughter-in-law coaxing the uncle! I thought my daughter-in-law was asleep, so I said these heartfelt words. Who would have thought..." Brother Rong said aggrievedly, "How can I keep my face!"

Qin Keqing smiled mysteriously and asked, "Really?"

Uncle Rong only felt that he was being held by someone, and seeing Ke'er's slightly meaningful expression, he immediately became excited.
