Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 160: Divide Cao and shoot down
  "Hey, the sisters are all here. Cong is late. It's your fault." Jia Cong walked into Lixiangyuan with Jia Huan and said with a smile. He waved his hand for the girl to deliver the gift.

"Qian'er went to Yangzhou to bring you some little naughty ideas. I mean it. Don't turn it down." Jia Cong said with a smile.

Everyone took it with a smile. Yingchun got a volume of "Japanese Imperial City Chess Records". When he opened it and looked at it, his eyes lit up and he said, "Brother Cong, did this chess records come from Japan?"

Jia Cong smiled and said: "I heard people say that every game in this chess record is exquisite and murderous, which is very different from the chess style of the Central Plains."

"Why?" everyone asked hurriedly.

"I heard that people from Japan are good at chess. Every year, the four major chess masters will send out top players to talk to each other in the palace. The game is like a battle. The winner lives and the loser dies. In other words, in every game of chess, there will be something When a chess player's head falls to the ground, you can imagine how fierce the fight between the two sides will be."

Bang, the chess record in Yingchun's hand fell to the ground. The girls were shocked and marveled at the cruelty and cruelty of the Japanese people.

Jia Cong picked up the chess record and put it in Yingchun's hand, and said with a smile: "Second sister is too timid. The person who died was a Japanese, so what does it have to do with me? As long as you are good at chess, that's all."

Tan Chun hurriedly opened his box, but it was a scroll of calligraphy. He hurriedly opened it and took a closer look: "In the first year of Wei Qianyuan, the ninth month of Wuxu, the third day of Gengwu and the third day of Renchen..."

"This is Yan Lugong's "Manuscript of Memorial to My Nephew"?" Tan Chun asked in a trembling voice.

Everyone was surprised. They didn't know the name of Yan Zhenqing, a great calligrapher. They hurriedly came up to admire it. They saw the handwriting stretching vertically and horizontally, majestic and simple, changing virtual and real, and vivid charm. A feeling of sadness, anger and depression came to their faces, and they were all amazed.

"Brother Cong is so thoughtful, where can I find such a treasure?" Baochai said with a smile.

"It's just a favor, how could he have such good intentions." Daiyu said with a smile. He knew that this calligraphy was given by a salt merchant, and Jia Cong also asked her to appreciate it.

"Thank you, Third Brother, for the gift." Tan Chun was fond of calligraphy and was naturally grateful to Jia Cong.

"It's nothing to worry about. I know that my fourth sister likes painting and reading Buddhist scriptures. This is Wu Daozi's "Avalokitesvara Pictures". Don't look at it. It's an authentic work. Would the salt merchant dare to give me a fake?" Jia Cong said with a smile. .

Everyone laughed, and Xichun bowed shyly: "Thank you, third brother."

Seeing Baoyu shrinking aside, Jia Cong smiled and waved, saying: "Baoyu, I know you like girls. How about taking a look at this painting of "Ladies with Hairpins" by Zhou Fang of the Tang Dynasty?"

Jia Baoyu was a good judge of goods. Although he was a little unhappy with Jia Cong, he couldn't help but take the painting over and look at it carefully.

Jia Cong held another long box, handed it to Shi Xiangyun and said, "Sister Yun has always been heroic. This sword is called Feiyi. It is appropriate to give it to my sister."

Shi Xiangyun opened the box in surprise and saw a dagger. He hung it on his waist and said, "Do you think I look like a female swordsman who walks around the world and fights injustices?"

Everyone smiled and shook their heads, Daiyu chuckled and said, "Does Sister Yun understand the meaning of the Flying Wing Sword?"

Xiangyun shook his head cutely.

Tanchun rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Li Yishan has a poem that says: I don't have the wings of a colorful phoenix..."

Everyone laughed and looked at Shi Xiangyun with evil intentions. The meaning of the second half of the sentence was naturally understood.

Xiangyun was made fun of by everyone and felt ashamed and embarrassed, so he rushed towards Tanchun, "You are such a Tanchun girl, you are laughing at me, please forgive me."

Everyone laughed and Baochai invited everyone to sit down.

Daiyu whispered beside Jia Cong: "Can you memorize your articles?"

"It's so ripe." Jia Cong said proudly.

Daiyu said with a smile: "Don't brag again." She glared at Jia Huan. It turned out that Jia Huan took advantage of her words to rush up and occupied Jia Cong's left position. Baochai was on the right. Daiyu had to sit on the right side of Baochai. Baoyu hurriedly went over and sat down next to her.

Jia Cong chuckled and gave Dai Yu a wink. He is a child who is not sensible. Don't let him take your place next time.

Daiyu rolled her eyes at him. She didn't think it would be awkward to sit next to Baoyu now.

The girl had already served vegetables and fruits like a stream of water. Baoyu suggested: "Sitting elegantly is boring. You need to follow orders."

Everyone agreed. Some people said it was good to do this, and others said it was good to do that.

Daiyu said: "As I said, I took a pen and inkstone and wrote out all the colors, and divided them into lots. Whichever one we picked out would be the one. Everyone thought it was wonderful, so one person said a pattern, and they were all written into lots. Son, put it in the bottle.

When it comes to poetry, Jia Cong can still recite a few poems. He doesn't know how to drink wine in ancient times, so he can only talk about throwing pots casually.

Jia Huan was about the same as him and started talking about it.

Baochai ordered Ying'er to pick it up. Ying'er stirred it inside and picked one out with chopsticks, but it was "shot over".

Baochai was afraid that Jia Cong was not good at this, so he said with a smile: "I found out the ancestor of a wine order. 'Shefu' existed in ancient times, but now it has been lost. It was compiled by later generations, and it is more difficult than all other orders." It's better to destroy it and find another one that can be appreciated by both refined and popular people."

Tanchun said with a smile: "Once you take it out, it will be destroyed again. This is God's will, so we will do this."

Shi Xiangyun said: "This is not good. I can't do this 'shooting'. I feel downcast and depressed. I want to punch."

Tanchun said: "Only if she disobeys the order, Sister Bao will give her a minute's punishment." Baochai refused to argue, so he poured Xiangyun a drink.

Tanchun said: "I'll have a drink. I'm the commander, so there's no need to make any noise. Just listen to my instructions." He ordered the dice to be taken from the basin, "I'll throw it first, then the next one, and the two will be right." People shoot down." He said and threw a "six".

Baochai smiled and said: "We have to have spring indoors. If we talk about going outside, we have no clue."

Tanchun said: "Of course. Anyone who misses three times will be punished with a drink."

Jia Cong asked Jia Huan: "What do you mean? Are you naughty?" When he was in school, he heard the teacher say that shooting is to hide something in a container, cover it with a handkerchief, and let people guess it. This is not what the current situation means.

Jia Huan's face was a little pale. He shook his head and said, "I won't be stubborn."

"I'm relieved if you don't know how." Jia Cong patted his shoulder happily. Fortunately, he had someone to support him.

It happened that Baochai also rolled six points.

Tanchun then added the word "人".

Baochai smiled and said: "The word '人' is very general."

Tan Chun said with a smile: "Add one more word, cover it twice and shoot it once, and it won't be too vague." Then he added the word "window".

Baochai thought about it and shot the word "埘" because there was a chicken on the table.

Tan Chun knew that she was cumming, and the two of them smiled and took a sip of the door cup each.

Seeing that Jia Cong and Jia Huan looked confused, Tanchun pointed to the Babaoshan rare chicken on the table and explained: "The answer to the riddle is actually the word for chicken. I said the words '人' and 'Window' before, just like Two veils cover the chicken, using the allusions of chicken man and chicken window.

Sister Bao guessed it and shot a '嘘', using the allusion of 'a chicken roosts in a chicken'. How about it, do you understand? "

Got it. Cong and Huan nodded pretending to understand.

"Third brother, chicken man, chicken window, what do you mean?" Jia Huan said softly.

Jia Cong whispered: "What a bullshit chicken man, chicken window, I know what it is."

puff! Hahaha... Jia hugged her belly and laughed.

"Huan'er, what kind of monster are you! Are you itchy? Did I say something funny?" Tan Chun glared at the two of them.

"What Third Brother said was so funny." Jia Huan fell down laughing and pointed at Jia Cong.

"What are you laughing at? Did you eat bee poop? Don't listen to his nonsense." Jia Cong laughed dryly.

"Brother Huan, having fun alone is not as good as having fun together. If you have any jokes, why don't you tell us and we will be happy together." Daiyu knew that it was Jia Cong who was causing trouble, and said with a half-smile but not a smile.
