The Red Mansions

Chapter 266 Wang Xifeng of the Rongguo Palace invited
The second day of the new year.

This year, because of the Fengtai Daying Camp, the city is much quieter.

On the street, every two quarters of an hour, there is a team of people patrolling.

Anyone who sees suspicious identities and behaviors will be arrested, regardless of whether they are celebrating Chinese New Year or not.

For the court, what is needed now is stability.

Three poles in the sun.

Today is a beautiful day, the sun is very mild.

Jia Yun waved away the guards to follow, went out alone, and walked slowly in Ning Rong's back street.

There are also many soldiers patrolling here, but the members of the Jia family are not worried or nervous.

Because they knew that these soldiers were all Jia Yun's subordinates.

Even the soldiers and horses that followed, the current team, were built by Jia Yun.

The soldiers saw Jia Yun and wanted to go forward to salute, but he waved his hand early to stop them.

Even though Jia Yun is young, his prestige in Fengtai Camp and Bingmasi is not so high.

All the soldiers knew him, and even many officers and soldiers followed him as an example.

Because Jia Yun really went to the battlefield, and once killed Japanese pirates in the south, all over the field.

In the army, it is the most bloody to obey the strong.

So even if Jia Yun was a civil servant, none of the officers and soldiers would dare to underestimate his strength.

Walking on the street, from time to time, people from the clan came forward to say hello.

Jia Yun smiled and responded one by one.

Speaking of which, he was really good to his clansmen.

Build free schools for the children, arrange jobs for the clansmen, and increase their income.

It can be said that more than [-]% of the Jia family members living in the capital have benefited from him.

Walking all the way to Ningrong Street, it suddenly became lively.

At the corridor, Jia Huan and several Jia family disciples were gambling again.

Jia Yun shook her head and sighed softly, pretending she didn't see it, and continued walking forward.

Rongguo Mansion, the door is open, there must be a distinguished guest today.

It's not too busy at the moment, Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu are welcoming guests at the door.

"Brother Yun is here? Sit inside quickly." Jia Lian stepped forward and greeted him with a smile.

Jia Yun waved her hand and said with a smile:
"Second Uncle Lian doesn't care about me, we are all from our own family, so don't be so particular about it."

"Haha, you have an unusual status after all, and today is an unusual day, so I can't neglect you." Jia Lian laughed loudly.

Jia Yun shook her head and smiled, "How can I have any status? Isn't it just a poor scholar?"

"Second Uncle Lian, you are so busy, I can just walk around. I really have to sit there for a long time before I can't sit still!"

"Okay, then I'll be rude. Knowing your temperament, I won't force it." Jia Lian nodded and said.

Jia Yun nodded, greeted Jia Baoyu, and walked into Rongguo Mansion.

As soon as he arrived in the front yard, a little girl looked happy and stepped forward to tell him that Wang Xifeng invited him to drink tea.

Jia Yun also knew this girl, she was from Wang Xifeng's courtyard.

Without doubting him, Jia Yun followed the maid and went straight to Sister Feng's courtyard.

Sister Feng's courtyard.

Standing in the corridor, Ping'er saw Jia Yun with a look of joy on his face, and stepped forward to greet her.

"Come here? Grandma has been waiting for you for a long time, thinking that you will come over early in the morning." Ping'er smiled sweetly.

"It's Chinese New Year, it's rare to relax for a few days, so naturally I need to sleep more." Jia Yun said with a smile.

While joking, the two came into the house.

Wang Xifeng was dressed in a graceful and luxurious body, lying sideways on the kang, revealing her plump figure.

Seeing Jia Yun coming in, she slowly turned over and sat up with a smile on her lips and spring waves in her eyes.

"Here you come? Sit here quickly, and Ping'er will fetch the prepared tea." Wang Xifeng said with a smile.

Ping'er responded and withdrew.

Jia Yun asked curiously, "You asked me to come, but what's the matter?"

"Can't I let you come here if you have nothing to do?" Wang Xifeng gave him a gouged look, then pursed his lips and smiled.

"It's really nothing, I just want to talk to you for a while."

Jia Yun nodded, took off her shoes, sat cross-legged on the kang, and asked:

"Rongguo Mansion is so lively today, why don't you go and entertain guests?"

Wang Xifeng shook his head and said: "It's still early, when I want to entertain guests, someone will come and call me."

After a pause, she said again: "I'm not in the mood to make them happy now, why go there so early?"

"This person has confidence, but it's different!" Jia Yun laughed.

Wang Xifeng covered her mouth with a smile and said, "That's right, I have a silver envoy now."

"Even if I leave Jia's mansion, there will still be people who want me. I don't need to keep my mouth shut and pretend to be happy to please them."

Soon, Ping'er came in with a few maidservants, and quickly arranged the small red clay stove and various tea sets.

Wang Xifeng made tea herself. After all, she often served the old lady, so she had her own rules.

Putting aside other things, just talking about the enjoyment of Jia's mansion, Jia Yun thinks that it is still far away.

Now Jia Yun's family is like a nouveau riche, lacking background, and many rules are very rough.

But Jia Mansion is different, it has its own system.

This system is actually good, but few people follow it now, it's just superficial.

Therefore, the Jia Mansion slowly decayed.

This is just like a country, the system may be good.

If no one abides by it, or if the person in power doesn't follow the rules, the people below will play their own way, and bad things will happen naturally.

When the fragrant tea is imported, the lips and teeth are fragrant, refreshing.

"Have you seen Daiyu during this time?" Wang Xifeng asked suddenly.

Jia Yun nodded and said, "I met you years ago, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I'm just curious if she will come today?" Wang Xifeng asked curiously, shaking her head.

Jia Yun smiled, shook her head and said, "There is a very high possibility that I won't come."

"Not only will I not come today, the noble concubine will visit my relatives, Lord Lin and Daiyu will not come either."

"Why?" Wang Xifeng frowned.

Jia Yun pondered: "This matter cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences."

"In fact, not only will they not come, but I will also not come on the day of the Lantern Festival."

"I'm here for the Chinese New Year, but on the Lantern Festival, the meaning is quite different. I don't want to get involved."

Wang Xifeng stared at him for a few times, half understanding, and didn't ask any more questions.

"If you don't come, don't come. I don't think there is anything good about such extravagance."

"Come on, let me pour you another cup of tea. I found this tea with great difficulty, and it's reserved for you."

"Really? You have a heart." Jia Yun raised her eyebrows and smiled, looking at her with piercing eyes.

"Not right now, people come and go today, after a few days, I'll find time to serve you."

Wang Xifeng's heart became hot, and he almost agreed, but finally he woke up.

Jia Yun looked her up and down, nodded and smiled:

"It's because I'm greedy for you. You can't touch it just by looking at it. My heart feels like it's on fire."

"Be patient, wait until I see you next time, do whatever you want." Wang Xifeng laughed softly.

"Also, in fact, I also think about it, if you don't believe me, you will know it by touching it."

As she said that, she stopped sitting cross-legged and spread her legs.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to wash my hands." Jia Yun waved her hands.

Wang Xifeng covered her mouth and smiled straight, her eyebrows were bent, making her even more beautiful.
