My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 179 Just dream

Excited, Qingwen rarely knelt down and kowtowed to Yuanchun: "Thank you, madam, for your kindness."

"Okay, get up." Yuan Chunyu raised his hand, and Baoqin on the side also smiled and stepped forward to help Qingwen up.

Looking at Qingwen, who was standing by with red eyes, the girls who were watching looked at Yuanchun who was sitting in his seat, and there was an inexplicable meaning in their hearts.

When Yuanchun said this, it meant that she had promised Qingwen that she could give birth to an heir for Jia Yu.

Yes, in this era, if an aunt or concubine wants to have children for the master, she must obtain the consent of the mistress.

If the mistress did not agree, the concubines and aunts would not even have reproductive rights. This was similar to the policies of later generations.

What is said these days is that a mother is more valuable than her son. Only with a son can a woman have security and dependence for the rest of her life.

Now that Yuanchun said this, it was like giving Qingwen a reassurance. Is this why Qingwen's eyes were so moved that her eyes turned red?

Jia Yu himself actually doesn't like to see this kind of scene, because it is incompatible with the education and knowledge he has received since childhood.

Although he believed that he had no ability to reverse the customs of this era, he also disliked the rules of such a wealthy family.

In his view, reproductive rights are the innate rights of human beings, and no individual or collective has the right to deprive or restrict them by any means.

Any person or group that violates this natural rule will eventually suffer backlash.

He waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, I've seen the ceremony and served the tea. Is it time for us to have a meal?"

Seeing a hint of impatience flash in Jia Yu's eyes, as a wife who shared the same bed with him, Yuan Chun knew that her husband was impatient to watch such a scene.

So he smiled and said: "Okay... Are the meals for Zhou Rui's family ready?

The prince worked hard all night last night, so don't let our prince go hungry. "

"Puch!"

As soon as Yuanchun finished speaking, Xiangyun was the first to burst out laughing, and then all the girls also blushed and laughed.

Everyone knows that last night was the day when Jia Yu and Qingwen consummated their marriage. Yuanchun said this clearly to make fun of the two of them.

As expected, Qingwen was so embarrassed that she was about to jump up and run away, but was hugged by Baoqin.

She was so anxious that she shouted on the spot: "You damn girl, let me go quickly. Don't forget that things will change. When you and I consummate your marriage, I will do this to you, just to see if you are afraid of me."

Now he stopped holding Qin, and stretched out his hand to scratch Qingwen's armpit, and the two of them got into a fuss.

The Zhou Rui family covered their mouths and chuckled while instructing the rough maid outside to bring the food to the table like water.

Jia Yu's family doesn't have as many rules for eating at home. A group of people always sit around a big table and eat together.

When Jia Yu didn't come back, Yuan Chun and the girls ate at the same table. Now even if Jia Yu comes back, nothing has changed.

There is no rule about not talking when eating or sleeping.

Therefore, these days, whether it is Daiyu, Baochai, Xiangyun, Tanchun, Yingchun and other girls, they all like the relaxed atmosphere of General Zhaoyong's mansion very much.

About two-quarters of an hour later, everyone had finished eating.

The girls, who were idle and bored, encouraged Rajayu to play mahjong together.

Naturally, Jia Yu was unwilling. He couldn't imagine why he would accompany a group of girls to build the Great Wall.

He rolled his eyes and said, "I don't need to worry about mahjong. Why don't I tell you a story?"

Xiangyun was stunned: "Telling a story... is it true or false? Brother Yu, please don't kid us?"

Xichun clapped her hands repeatedly: "Okay, okay... I like listening to stories the most."

Daiyu also looked at Jia Yu curiously: "Brother Yu, can you really tell stories?"

Although the three girls Yuan Chun, Baochai and Yingchun did not speak, they also cast curious glances.

The goddesses have different expressions, but this also reflects their personalities.

Xiangyun's innocence, Xichun's innocence, Daiyu's sensitivity and suspicion, and so on.

"Who says I can't."

Jia Yu rolled up her sleeves and sat down, then looked around, slapped the table and feigned anger: "Bold, you know I'm going to write a book, why don't you even have a cup of tea? Do you want me to die of thirst?"

The girls all laughed, and everyone felt that Brother Yu was indeed different.

The pillar of the country who can lead thousands of troops outside, has no airs at all when getting along with them at home, and can laugh and play with them casually, which is really to their liking.

Soon, Jin Chuan brought a cup of fragrant tea and placed it next to Jia Yu with a smile.

Then everyone's eyes were on him, and everyone wanted to hear what this newly minted Uncle Dingyuan could do.

Originally, everyone did not believe Jia Yu's words at all. The reason why everyone cooperated was to see his jokes so that they could have fun with him. They never expected that Jia Yu would shock them as soon as he opened his mouth.

Jia Yu imitated the storyteller and patted the table before speaking.

"The vast water of the Qiantang River flows endlessly day and night from Niujia Village, Lin'an Prefecture, Liangzhe West Road, and flows eastward into the sea. Dozens of cypress trees line the banks of the river, with leaves as red as fire. The weather in August..."

Yes, Jia Yu is talking about the legendary book "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" recognized by later generations.

This novel written by Jin Daxia is recognized as a work that created a new model, new pattern and new era of martial arts novels. Even after it was published more than 70 years ago, it is still loved by countless readers and has influenced several generations. .

When the stories of Niujiacun, Guo Jing, Jiangnan Strangeness, Quanzhen Sect, Desert, and the Black Wind Demons were told like a picture, everyone was caught up in it.

Although Yuanchun was more stable than the other girls, he couldn't bear to hear such an interesting story for the first time. He sat next to Jia Yu and stared at him without blinking.

Three girls, Qingwen, Baoqin and Jinchuan, also stayed close behind Yuan Chun and Jia Yu and listened carefully.

Daiyu, Xiangyun, Baochai, Yingchun, He Xichun and other girls also unknowingly came to Jia Yu, no longer caring about the defense between men and women, looking at Jia Yu unblinkingly, for fear of missing something. word.

Two hours have passed since Jia Yu talked about the five events of sudden changes in wind and snow, strange things in the south of the Yangtze River, vast yellow sand, black wind and evil spirits, and bending bows and shooting eagles.

The girls were still listening with great interest. Even the maids who were working outside secretly came to the door to listen to Jia Yu's story, not to mention Daiyu and other girls.

Finally, Jia Yu, whose mouth was dry and tongue-tied, had to stop.

"Okay... I'll stop here for today. If you want to listen to the book, please come early tomorrow."

As soon as this statement came out, it seemed as if it aroused the anger of everyone, and the girls immediately started chirping.

"ah……"

Xiang Yun was the first to jump up: "Brother Yu is the worst. He just said this and stopped talking. Aren't you making people want to eat?"

Tanchun also complained: "Brother Yu, just say one more round, just one round... okay?"

Even Yingchun, who had the softest temper, looked at Jia Yu with resentful eyes, as if looking at a heartless man.

Xichun, the little girl, was the cruelest in the film, and directly threatened: "Brother Yu, if you don't talk again, I will pester Sister Yuanchun every night from now on and not let her sleep with you."

As soon as these words came out, the whole room was silent, and then burst into laughter.

Just when everyone was making a fuss, Zhou Ruijia hurried in and reported: "Master, madam, ladies, someone from Rongguo Mansion is waiting in the outer courtyard."

Jia Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who is it?" Zhou Rui's family replied respectfully, "It's the housekeeper Lai Da."

"Lai Da?"

Jia Yu frowned: "Lai Da, why did you come to me for nothing?"

Yuanchun knew that his husband never wanted to see Lai Da, so he quickly said from the side: "I guess there is something important, why don't you let him come over."

Jia Yu then nodded: "Sure... then let him come over."

Soon, Lai Da was taken to the back hall by Zhou Rui's family.

As soon as they met, Lai pooped and knelt down, "Little man, Lai Da, kowtow to my uncle and say hello to him."

Lai Da's move stunned everyone.

Although there are kneeling rituals in this era, these are only performed by people of low status when they see someone in a superior position.

Or it is a salute that is only done when someone comes to ask for something important. Under normal circumstances, a greeting or a bow will suffice.

What's more, Lai Da is not a servant of Jia Yu's house, and Jia Yu has no control over him at all.

There is even less need to perform such a grand ceremony.

Jia Yu was slightly startled, then smiled and said: "Lai Da... what are you doing?

As the saying goes, if you are polite, you must ask for something. Are you asking me to borrow money?

If this is the case, you are kneeling to the wrong person. You should be kneeling to the eldest girl in your family. Now she is in charge of all our money.

Even if I want to go have a drink, I have to ask her to pay for some money. "

When the girls nearby heard this, they all covered their mouths and laughed, and the back hall was full of giggles.

Lai Da's old face turned red with shame, but he actually didn't want to do this.

But who makes him afraid?

When Jia Yu first came to Shenjing, Lai Da looked down on him, and now he is afraid of him.

As Lai Da, who has been serving people all his life, what he is best at is observing people's actions. He knows very well that Jia Yu, the uncle of Rongguo Mansion, is actually quite disgusted with him.

It's just that due to his identity, he never had an attack.

It's different now. As a newly minted earl with a hereditary title, Jia Yu has been officially promoted to a big shot in the noble circle.

If such a big shot takes care of him, Lai Da always feels like his head is a little unsteady around his neck.

Especially when he first entered the back hall, when Jia Yu, who was sitting on the chair, glanced at him casually, his sharp eyes full of evil almost scared him to the point of peeing. This is why he knelt down on the spot.

Hearing Jia Yu making fun of Lai Da, Yuan Chun rolled her eyes at her husband angrily and funnyly, and raised her hand:

"Lai Da, you get up first.

Tell me, something happened in the house, and you actually have to come here in person? "

After Yuanchun said this, Lai Da slowly stood up and said cautiously: "To tell you the story, it's actually not a big deal.

After the old ladies and gentlemen in the mansion learned that my uncle had been promoted to a lordship, they thought of inviting my uncle to come to the mansion tomorrow to talk about their family affairs.

In addition, the villain has another thing to do today, which is to take some ladies back to his house. After all, the ladies have been disturbing the elder girl for quite some time.

Now that my uncle is back, I can't keep disturbing him and the eldest daughter.

Besides, the girls and ladies have been away these days, and the old lady misses them very much. "

"Want to take Daiyu and Xiangyun back?"

Jia Yu was slightly startled, then nodded: "What the old lady said makes sense. Since the old lady has been thinking about several girls, we can't stop her."

"Hey... let's go back now, we haven't had enough fun yet."

When they heard that they were going back to Rongguo Mansion, all the girls were a little reluctant.

These days, they live in General Zhaoyong's Mansion and stay with Yuanchun day and night.

Since the backyard is not big, the houses where everyone lives are almost right next to each other. It is not an exaggeration to say that they live in the same room.

The relationship between the girls is also deepening day by day, and Yuanchun is gentle and kind-hearted, treating them like sisters. With everyone getting along day and night, their life is extremely comfortable.

In addition, Jia Yu had just told them such a wonderful story. The girls were certainly not happy when they thought that they would never be able to hear it again after they returned.

Seeing the sad expressions on the faces of the girls, Yuan Chun smiled slightly: "Well, don't be sad, Rongguo Mansion and Earl Dingyuan Mansion are only half a city apart from each other.

If you want to come and play in the future, just tell the old lady and send someone to say hello to me, and I will send someone to pick you up.

Then we can be together again? "

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Xiangyun's face immediately turned from gloomy to clear, and he looked at Yuanchun with burning eyes.

Yuan Chun said with a smile: "Of course it's true, I can still lie to you."

"Well, we will come to play with you often from now on."

Xiangyun said with a smile, but she also knew that these words were just to comfort herself. It would be very difficult for a group of eldest girls like herself to leave the palace.

Soon, the maids began to get busy.

Yuanchun also asked Baoqin and Jinchuan to go to the warehouse and take out some good things as gifts for the girls to take back.

By the way, there are many gifts for Jia's mother, her parents, Baoyu, Jia Lian and his wife, and even Jia She and his wife. There are a lot of gifts.

After being busy for an hour or two, Lai Da and a group of dozens of servants from the Jia Mansion escorted several girls back to Rongguo Mansion.

After the girls left, the two of them looked at the deserted backyard again, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Yuan Chun couldn't help but sigh: "I have become accustomed to the company of Tanchun and Daiyu these days, but now that they are gone, I am not used to it."

Jia Yu also echoed: "Yes, it's better to have more people and be more lively."

Hearing Jia Yu's words, Yuan Chun rolled his eyes at him and said coquettishly: "Look at you, is the fox's tail exposed?

Say...have you fallen in love with any sister? "

Jia Yu panicked at first, and then said calmly: "You are right, these girls are all good, and I have taken a liking to them all.

I am thinking about marrying them all into the house sometime. "

Yuan Chun burst into laughter, couldn't help but twist his arm lightly, and stretched out her slender hand to lightly tap his forehead.

"You... just go ahead and dream.

How could we, the girls from Ning Rong's Second Mansion, come here to give you a baby, unless..."

The next words were a bit treacherous, and Yuanchun quickly stopped talking, but his eyes were smiling, which clearly explained everything.
