The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 80 Confrontation ([-])

It was Qin Keqing who wept secretly.

Although there were tears on his face, there was boundless joy and endless sweetness in his heart.Tears of joy flowed.

God bless, it seems that Fourth Uncle Min will not lose.

Although he bought Jia Minying at the Liansheng Casino, Qin Keqing's heart has been hanging in the past few days.

Of course she believed that Fourth Uncle Min would win, but all the news these days was unfavorable to Fourth Uncle Min.This made her hesitate a lot of the time.That's why Shou'er came up with the idea of ​​asking Shou'er to secretly send a message to Jia Min, saying that if Jia Min loses, she is willing to provide funding.

Seeing Jia Min produce such a rare watermelon now, I can't help but have confidence in Fourth Uncle Min's victory.

At about the same time, the maid, Amber, came in to report.

"Old Ancestor, Fourth Master Min is out to see you and wants to kowtow to our Ancestor."

"Okay, call him in quickly."

At this time, Jia Mu was being flattered by everyone and wanted to show off in front of the guests, so she was very happy.

Jia Min came in and quickly glanced around at the people in the room.

This is the first time he has come to Rongxi Hall, and it is also the first time he has met his ancestors.

The first time was the day when Jia Min first entered the mansion, and the ancestor didn't see him. Since then, he has been classified as a separate book.

The second time, just a few days ago, Jia Min came to kowtow to the old ancestor to celebrate his birthday, but the old ancestor didn't see him either.

Logically speaking, Mother Jia should have seen him both times.

For the first time, it was the grandson's first time entering the mansion. To put it bluntly, he was going home.In the end, it was Jia's mother who made the decision and took him back.Emotionally and rationally, everything should be seen.

The second time, it belonged to the juniors who came to kowtow to celebrate the birthday, and also gave a heavy gift of 3000 taels of silver, which should be seen.

This time, Jia Min sent apples and watermelons and other rare things, which are not even found in the palace.Besides, after the banquet at noon today, the celebration of this birthday will also end.

If we don't see Jia Min again this time, don't blame Jia Min.

Even though the ancestor was so powerful that no one dared to say it, but in his heart, no one would say that Jia Min was wrong.

Except for a few guests, Jia Min had seen most of the others.After taking a closer look, I knew that the rich old lady with a cane sitting in the middle seat was Jia Mu.

"The grandson kowtowed to the old ancestor, and wished the old ancestor a long life and a long life."

Jia Min knelt down and kowtowed three times.

"Okay, get up. You've got your stuff, and everyone likes it."

"Thank you for accepting the old ancestor, as long as the old ancestor likes it."

Then, Jia Min greeted the others one by one.

Jia Zheng smiled slightly, and Mrs. Wang nodded slightly and also smiled.

The reason Mrs. Wang smiled was because Jia Min called her mother this time, finally saving her some face in front of everyone.It was also because she didn't want others to see her being too indifferent to Jia Min in front of the guests.So as not to leave outsiders with the impression that he is harsh on the concubine.

Jia Amnesty, on the other hand, replied coldly with a straight face.In my heart, I scolded Jia Min countless times.Then he scolded Jia Zheng in his heart, how could he come up with such a bastard.

Baoyu's expression was very complicated, and he didn't respond in the end.It's just that the face is so big that the big-faced cat has almost turned into a big-faced tiger.

Daiyu smiled at Jia Min with an excited expression on her face.

Baochai was relatively calm, just nodded her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Next, in the corner, I saw Qin Keqing.His eyes quickly glanced at Jia Min, showing a very bright smile, and then turned away, never looking at Jia Min again.

As soon as Jia Min's heart was hot, there was a burst of sweetness in his heart.

At this moment, Li Shi'er, Jia Zheng's elder brother, came in.It is said that Wu Shangshu, Luo Hanlin, Chen Hanlin, etc. from the Ministry of Industry are here, and they hope to discuss poetry with Jia Min.

Jia Min bowed to Jia Mu and others, and followed Jia Zheng.

In a blink of an eye, we arrived at the gate of Meng Po Zhai.

"I'm sure you know what they are here for. Make a good two songs, and don't lose face to your ancestors."

"The child knows, but father please rest assured."

Damn, you are really here.Writing poems is no good, but when it comes to copying poems, if you look at the entire Dade Dynasty, who am I afraid of?

Alas, this political father is really speechless in his work.When you offer auspiciousness in front of outsiders and save face for the mansion, you think of me.

Now when other people come to your door to compare the kung fu of the family of Jia's poems and books, you remembered asking me to honor my ancestors.Why didn't you remember me when you all bet on Liansheng Casino and beat me to death?

At that time, you only have Baoyu and your own money in your eyes.Alas, how did I end up with such a group of second senior brothers?

Besides, this time travelling, I have worn it all the way to the imperial capital. It is only a few steps away from the palace, and it would be great to wear it directly on the emperor. When you see me, it is too late to kowtow. Who else dares to do it for a day? Counting me at night?
This crossing was indeed not very successful.

As the two walked into the house, Jia Zheng gave instructions.

"After going in, I'll ask them to do it first. If it's a criticism, try to say something good, don't be arrogant. Take advantage of this time, you'll brew it well, and finally make a blockbuster."

Oh, I didn't see it, this political father is also a bit competitive.It's just a matter of brewing well, but it doesn't have to be.Copy a poem, what else is there to brew?
What I care about now is what kind of expression Sister Feng will have when she sees the gift I sent over.

Let's say that when Jia Min came in, he put another gift he had prepared in the flower hall at the gate of Rongguo Mansion, and handed it to Zhang Cai, the housekeeper, and asked him to send someone to deliver the letter to Sister Feng, and then distribute it to everyone. Some masters in the mansion.

I didn't ask Ping'er to take these gifts with me, that's something to be particular about.

What Ping'er brought was directly for the ancestors, to please them.

Now these gifts are specially used to slap certain people in the face.Jia Min would not ask his Qiao Ping'er to do such an offending thing.

At this time, the news that Ping'er sent watermelons and apples to Jia Mu had already spread in the mansion.All kinds of auspicious signs about watermelons and apples also aroused everyone's curiosity and wanted to see them quickly.

Wang Xifeng has been busy hosting Jiamu's birthday banquet, so she missed the scene in the Rongxi Hall.

At this time, when he heard that Jia Min had also given gifts to the masters in the mansion, he immediately thought of watermelons and apples.

Sister Feng is a greedy person, and loves to show off her prestige in front of others, so she immediately took a group of maids and women to the flower hall to receive gifts, and then sent people to deliver them to the masters everywhere. .

When I arrived at the flower hall, I saw that the gifts had been arranged in the room, piles and piles.Each serving is a bamboo box containing 12 apples in a satin bag with compartments for one apple.At first glance, it feels high-end and elegant.

The other box is watermelons wrapped in rice paper, one for each person.There are rectangles, triangles, squares, trapezoids, etc.

On each gift, there is a note with the name written on it, that is to say, who is it for.

snort!Fourth Min, you bastard.No matter how happy you are dancing, you still have to obediently give gifts to my old lady.

It's just that you were too late in giving the gift, this time, I will never let you go again.

"Feng'er, quickly find out our share, take it back first, and open it when I go back."

When Wang Xifeng said that, she saw Feng'er standing there motionless, and looked at the butler Zhang Cai, also with a confused look on her face.

"You stupid hoof, what's the matter? Why don't you look for it quickly, what are you doing standing there?"

"Second Grandma, I searched for it several times, but nothing."

Feng'er looked aggrieved.

"What? No? How is it possible? No one has any, and it's worse than me? Zhang Cai, what's going on? Did you ask you to steal it?"

"Second Mistress, even if you have the courage, who would dare to take it for yourself? When Fourth Master Min handed it over to me, I even asked."

"How did he say it?"

"It is said that it was given to some masters in the mansion."

"Some masters, what do you mean?"

"The servant specifically asked Fourth Master Min what 'some' means. He said that some masters have it, and some masters don't."

"Who has it? Who doesn't?"

"Other masters have them, but your second grandma and second master Bao don't."

"Even Brother Rong from Dongfu?"

"Yes."

Wang Xifeng's face was murderous, her chest heaved sharply, her head was dizzy, and her body shook.Feng'er hurried forward to support her, and after a while, she let out a long breath.

Wang Xifeng's eyes widened angrily, and the corners of his mouth trembled.

Along the way, she was in a hurry, followed by more than a dozen people, all staring at her blankly, no one dared to speak at this moment.However, in my heart, everything is counting.

This is the face of Fourth Master Min publicly slapping Second Mistress Lian and Second Master Bao.

On weekdays, these two are the most popular in the mansion, and they are also the most favored by the old lady, but this Fourth Master Min just doesn't give them any face.Everyone has this gift, so not giving it to them is obviously against them.

It's no wonder, you run against Fourth Master Min so much, even if you are a clay figurine, you have three-pointedness, you pushed him to the bottom of the wall, and now he fights back.

"Let's go, the time is coming soon, let's prepare the dinner. Feng'er, help me go back."

Wang Xifeng gasped for a while, and finally had an idea.

"Second Grandma, this thing?"

Zhang Cai asked cautiously.

"Whoever it should be, send it to whoever it is."

Wang Xifeng gritted his teeth and said something.

Looking at the backs of a group of people leaving, Zhang Cai smiled wryly and shook his head.

Alas, this Fourth Master Min is really a ruthless person.This kind of thing can be done.Slapped the two of them in the face so openly, didn't they think about the way out?
It's just that Uncle Rong is also the happiest, so why let him go this time?Could it be that he and Fourth Master Min are secretly together?
It's just that Fourth Master Min has stabbed a hornet's nest.Lian's Second Mistress and Bao's Second Master have always been the most proud people in the mansion. How can they let it go when they are humiliated today?In the end, when I got to my ancestors, I was on their side.

This Fourth Master Min has the guts, but he is brave and has no plans. This time, he is afraid that he will suffer a big loss.

Alas, it's a pity that this talent is lost.
