Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 20 Keqing said strangely: Why are the father-in-law and the second uncle here today?

The moon is dark and the wind is high, in a small building in a secluded garden, a window sill reflects a charming woman, and when you touch the wall, you climb up and climb up, it's really dirty, a father-in-law and a daughter-in-law.

Jia Ying still couldn't understand anything at this moment.

Immediately, Jiao Da's words came to mind: "Picking up ashes, picking up ashes"

Jia Ying thought to herself, "Shouldn't it be? Could it be that my arrival pushed the whole 'plot' forward?"

Immediately, he wanted to go over and stop him, but then he thought again: "I ran into it today, if I just let him prevaricate in such a vague way, what will happen next?"

Then he stopped and waited for the opportunity.

Over there, Jia Zhen had already knocked on the door knocker, but remained silent.

In the house, Keqing thought it was the two sisters of Ruizhuzhu who came back, put down the books in her hands, got down, and opened the door without putting on any outer clothes.

The door just opened wide, but Qing could clearly see who was coming. It was the father-in-law who always looked at her differently on weekdays, but now he smelled of alcohol all over his body, and his eyes looking at her were even more blurred.

But Qing didn't have time to say hello, so she turned her head away shyly, and was about to go back to the house and put on her coat before greeting Jia Zhen.

What kind of person is Qin Keqing? She is good at style and looks like the moon. Her shyness is just like Haitang waking up in spring, and Furong is so cool that Jia Zhen is really drunk.

No matter how unbearable the heat in his stomach was, before Keqing was far away, he rushed forward quickly, but he didn't even care about the usual reservedness of the elders, and immediately hugged Keqing.

Soft as a boneless muscle, the fragrance diffuses, and the vermilion lips are slightly parted.

"Father-in-law!"

Ke Qing's face was flustered, and she exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Jia Zhen didn't make a sound, her eyes gradually approached, and her breathing was rapid.

Downstairs, Jia Ying heard Ke Qing's exclamation, and hurried up the stairs, approaching the door, but coughed lightly.

When Jia Ying came in, Jia Zhen had already let go of Ke Qing, with panic on her face.

But Qing took the opportunity to go back to the back room.

Jia Zhen looked at Jia Ying evasively and asked, "Ying'er, why are you here?"

Inside, Ke Qing put on his coat but didn't hurry to go out. While calming down the blush on his face, he also wondered in his heart: "What's the matter today, father-in-law and second uncle are here too."

Jia Ying wanted to take care of Miss Keqing's family, but she didn't point it out on the spot.

He just said: "Today, my sister-in-law said that Brother Zhen invited me to host me, but I didn't see Brother Zhen when I went, why are you here?"

Then he said to Keqing who came out from the inner room: "I had a few glasses of wine tonight, so I thought about going to Huifang Garden to wake up from my drunkenness. So I came over to have a look, I didn't think it was Rong's daughter-in-law's house, but I took the liberty."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Jia Zhen again, and the questioning in his eyes was self-evident.

Jia Zhen was also quick-witted, recovered from the panic, and said with a smile: "Oh, I really should apologize to Yinger, I should have come back to accompany you earlier, but I didn't want to be caught by foreign affairs for a while. I just went back to the mansion, and asked Laishan about Rong'er, but said that I never came home, I was worried for a while, so I came to my daughter-in-law to ask where the incompetent fooled around, I never thought I would run into you here!"

Jia Ying didn't point him out, she just said, "Have you asked clearly?"

Jia Zhen continued: "Ask clearly, ask clearly! When I see him tomorrow, I will teach him to be a man!"

Jia Ying silently mourned for Jia Rong for three seconds, then pulled Jia Zhen out, and said, "Since we have asked clearly, let's go together. You and I are elders after all, so it's not good to stay here all the time."

Before leaving the house, he confessed to Keqing again and said, "You don't have to send it off, just rest early!"

Ke Qing just bowed to the two of them, and did not speak during the whole process, but his face could not hide the worry: "I don't know if the second uncle has seen it? How much?"

After leaving the Tianxiang Building, Jia Ying suddenly smiled coldly on the way, and Jia Zhen's heart skipped a beat when she heard the sound.

Jia Zhen pretended not to know, and asked, "What is Yinger laughing at?"

Jia Ying snorted softly and said, "Brother Zhen just made an agreement with me a few days ago, why don't you remember today? Brother Zhen really thinks I don't know anything?"

Jia Zhen was still lucky and said, "Know what?"

Jia Ying stared at Jia Zhen quietly and said, "Just now, it was just for the sake of your brother Quanzhen's face, and also for the reputation of Rong's daughter-in-law. Do you really want me to say it?"

Seeing that Jia Zhen couldn't avoid it, but he absolutely couldn't admit to such a corrupting thing, so he could only say in a begging tone: "Ying'er, your brother Zhen had a few extra drinks today, and he made a mistake all of a sudden. Dao'er, now you're just acting like a big brother and having a drunken madness, what do you think?"

Jia Yingyin sneered and said: "Brother Zhen, I'm afraid that if I follow your wishes today, you will have to suffer like this again tomorrow, and then you will say that you are drunk and confused. I think it is better to go with me now." Ancestral hall, clarify the matter with the ancestors!"

After speaking, he forcibly dragged Jia Zhen to the ancestral hall.

Jia Zhen said while exerting her strength: "Ying'er, two brothers Ying, why bother to bring this matter to the ancestral hall, disturbing the peace of the ancestors' heroic spirits, I promise you, I will never do it again in the future! Let go quickly, don't bother." Tell the servants to read the joke!"

Jia Ying pretended not to hear it.

Jia Zhen couldn't do it for a while, so she could only act like the patriarch of the long house and shouted: "Ying'er, how can I say that I am the patriarch of Jiamen, why don't you give me any face!"

After Jia Ying heard this, she stopped. Jia Zhen only thought that the other party was being bluffed by herself.

Jia Ying sneered and said, "Brother Zhen is using his status as patriarch to suppress me? Then I really can't do anything to you."

After hearing this, Jia Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, and said to herself, "So there is something that can catch you. It seems that I will have to use my identity as the patriarch more in the future!"

He just thought about it, then he heard Jia Ying say again: "Since I can't correct you, then tomorrow I'll go to the Xuanzhen Temple and ask the uncle to see if he can't control you, the head of the Jia family!"

The small flame that Jia Zhen had just started was extinguished before it could burn.

The sigh in my heart is also my own fate: "This is not to welcome a brother back, he is clearly a nemesis, and he is the one who is right with me!"

Jia Zhen could only embarrass herself and said: "Where is Yinger's words? Why can't the brothers correct each other? It's just that you have to save some face for me after all, don't you?"

In fact, Jia Ying has a clear mind, she can only scare him, can she really drag him to the ancestral hall?

What do you say when you get there?
I just had a drink with his wife in the same room. Although there is a reason for the incident, but if you really want to reason about it, the etiquette aspect is also difficult.

Thinking of this, Jia Ying also felt angry, what a bastard master you are, to do such absurd thing like letting your wife eat wine with your brother, but you hide yourself to steal the door of your daughter-in-law.

If I hadn't been woken up by the maid's accident at that time, I would have been the one who scolded me anxiously.

Therefore, he couldn't hold on to this matter, so he could only say to Jia Zhen: "As a brother, I have no reason to dismantle my brother's platform. It's okay to save you some face, but"

Jia Zhen hurriedly said: "I won't commit such foolishness in the future. If there is again, it won't be too late for Yinger to drag me to see my ancestors!"

Jia Ying finally nodded her head. With today's lesson, Jia Zhen had to settle down a bit, so she wouldn't tell Qin Keqing any more unclear nonsense.

This can be regarded as the first change that he brought to the Jia family.

As long as there are no problems at home, as for who he messes with outside, it's nothing to worry about.

Jia Zhen said something like guarantee again, and Jia Ying let him go back.

At the same time, I made up my mind that I must move out early and become independent.

You need to be hard on your own to forge iron, and only when you are upright can you be qualified to talk about Jia Zhen.Furthermore, with Jia Zhen's temperament, if she really relies on the Ning Mansion to live in the future, sooner or later Jia Zhen will spit on her face just like Jia Qin.

Back in the small courtyard, Qi Sixian had already rested, only the old servant and Xi'er were waiting for him to come back, he drank more wine tonight, washed up hastily, and then went to bed early.

The next day, early morning.

Reviewing books and practicing martial arts are like Jia Ying's daily morning classes.Reading is related to the future, and martial arts is the ability that my father left for me to save my life, neither of which can be left behind.

And Qi Sixian didn't know when it started. Every morning, he would finish his morning classes at Jia Ying. After finishing his martial arts training, he would prepare hot water and towels, and then serve Jia Ying food.

Jia Ying also told her that you are just a guest and you don't need to be a servant.

But now it seems that she never listened.Also, someone as smart as her naturally has her own opinions.

But I heard today that Xi'er came to report that someone came to the house to deliver a letter to Miss Qi.

Both Jia Ying and Qi Sixian were surprised.

Jia Ying asked, "Who sent the letter?"

Xi'er replied: "The man was received by Butler Lai, who said he was from Lord Chaozhong Fu's residence."

"Master Fu?"

Qi Sixian didn't know a senior official surnamed Fu, and he had never heard his father mention such an acquaintance in Beijing, so he was full of doubts.

Jia Ying saw Qi Sixian's doubts, and only said: "If you take it apart and take a look, you will know what's going on?"

After reading the letter, Qi Sixian said to Jia Ying: "The letter asked me to come to the house today, and it didn't say who it was, but it was signed with the word 'Donglai'."

However, Jia Ying knew who it was. After all, Master Feng even gave him a letter of recommendation, giving him time to pay a visit to Fu Donglai.

But he didn't expect that before he cared about this matter, Fu Donglai came looking for him.

Then Qi Sixian said: "It's Fu Shi, Fu Donglai, the cabinet ministers of the current court."

After a pause, he continued, "I think it should have something to do with your father's matter."

Jia Ying began to ponder, did she go with Qi Sixian by herself, and pay a visit to the world-famous Duke Donglai?Or let the mansion send someone to send Qi Sixian alone?

Judging from Master Feng's reminder, this Duke Donglai seems to have a natural rejection of the noble family. Is it appropriate for him to go now?
Qi Sixian seemed to have figured out why Jia Ying hesitated, and said from the side: "Master Fu knows that I am temporarily staying in Jia's residence."

Jia Ying's heart suddenly brightened, and she couldn't help admiring Qi Sixian's intelligence, which was different from Daiyu's.

Daiyu's wisdom lies in her talent.

Qi Sixian's wisdom lies in making decisions and judging others.

It can also be seen that the children of the same family of officials have completely different tutoring styles.

At that moment, Jia Ying made a decision. Since Fu Donglai knew that Qi Sixian was with him, there was no reason not to go. As a junior, he might have to invite the dignified court ministers.
