The Red Mansions

Chapter 155 3rd Class General Yunhui

Chapter 155 Third Class General Yunhui

Ningguo Mansion Backyard

Because Jia's mother came, Qin Keqing heard the news, so she took Baozhu and Ruizhu to meet her.

The beauty's brows and eyes are full of lazy style. Now she changed into a light red skirt and came towards the main hall of the backyard.

As soon as he reached the screen behind the living room, he heard Bi'er's voice, saying: "Old lady, uncle, foreign men are not allowed to enter without permission."

As he said that, he turned his eyes to Baoyu and Jia She, who were aside.

The smile on Jiamu's face froze immediately, and she said, "What did Brother Heng let go?"

Wang Shanbao's family on the side, with a cold snort flashed in the triangular eyes under the hanging eyebrows, said: "Old lady, this little girl is not big or small."

Jia Mu said: "Brother Heng's inner house has strict rules, but it's nothing."

She said she was here to visit this time, but in fact she knew in her heart that it was more like a beg.

The pile of bad debts in the West Mansion has to be entrusted to Jia Heng to investigate. Thinking like this, he looked at Jia She who was at the side and said, "You go to the front hall and wait."

Jia She snorted softly and said angrily, "Then I'll wait under the eaves."

After Jia Mu finished speaking, she smiled again and said, "It's all right now."

But Bi'er shook her head lightly, and turned her gaze to Baoyu who was aside.

Baoyu blushed and said, "How can I be considered a foreigner?"

Jia Mu also laughed and said, "Baoyu is only a little boy."

Bi'er said, "That's not okay either."

At this moment, Mrs. Wang was a little unhappy, and said: "You girl, why are you so unreasonable? My Baoyu is the most polite."

At this moment, a sneer sounded, "That's not necessarily the case. I heard that Second Master Bao has been living off the rouge from the servant girl's lips for the past two years."

It was clear that Qingwen came out from nowhere, the girl was wearing a green pomegranate dress, she folded her arms, and turned her "shouldered shoulders, water snake waist" sideways to Mrs. Wang, a bit "like the eyebrows and eyes of sister Lin", and squinted at Mrs. Wang , with a sneer.

Whether Qingwen is in this posture or sneering, it is full of contempt.

The mothers-in-law and maids behind Jia Mu all have weird faces, and Second Master Bao eats rouge and does nothing?

What is this called?

Do you not eat?

Perhaps it was a fateful encounter, when Mrs. Wang saw this "frivolous" appearance, she didn't get angry at all, and she gave birth to an unknown fire, saying: "Where is the girl, there is no one who is so frivolous."

Not far away, Jia Heng looked at this scene and thought to himself: "It's a fateful meeting. From the perspective of a Bodhisattva and the perspective of a concubine, give Qingwen a lady's cigarette and blow a smoke ring at Mrs. Wang, the irony is enough." gone."

Mrs. Xing sneered and said, "Where there is a master, there must be a servant. Wang Shanbao's family, hit her on the mouth!"

Jia Mu frowned and looked at Qingwen with dissatisfaction.

Secretly thought, this Qingwen was also a good person in the past, why is she so arrogant after arriving in Dongfu now, Baoyu is a child, and whenever she offends her, she comes to arrange the master's house.

But Baoyu looked at Qingwen with dazed eyes for a while.

The maid in Brother Heng's room is actually so good-looking.

Daiyu tugged at Baoyu's sleeves and looked at Qingwen, wondering if it was her illusion, why did this girl look a little... like her?

Sister Feng Yurong paused, and was about to speak.

At this moment, a deep shout sounded: "Eldest madam, you are so honorable, is this the eldest maid who wants to beat me?"

At this time, Wang Shanbao had already moved towards Qingwen, and was about to raise his hand, but he felt a pain in his waist and eyes, and he fell to the ground with a sound of "Ouch", his old face showing pain.

It was clearly Bi'er who punched Wang Shanbao in the waist and eyes.

But on this side, everyone looked at the young man in the flying fish suit with the sword on his waist, and came quickly, even Wang Shanbao's family, who was mourning on the ground, couldn't take care of him for a while.

Jia's mother looked at the boy quietly with a strange look in her eyes.

Tanchun, Daiyu, and Li Wan all cast different glances.

At this moment, Jia Heng's face is stern, his body is tall and tall, and his solemn and majestic demeanor rushes towards his face.

Sister Feng smiled to smooth things over, she didn't know if it was intentional, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, you look like a weak maid, but you are quite skillful in your hands."

Mrs. Xing: "???"

Wang Shanbao's family forgot to groan for a moment, looked at Sister Feng in some astonishment, and then at Mrs. Xing.

Madam, do you see that this is still a human language?

Sister Feng smiled, and glanced at Wang Shanbao's house, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes.

She couldn't get used to the dead face of this old woman.

But the young man cupped his hands at Jia Mu and said, "I've seen the old lady."

If someone pays attention to Jia Heng's address, he will hear that since Jia Heng is Mrs. Wang, he has never greeted Mrs. Wang.

Daiyu is such a caring person, there is a bit of indescribable charm in her bright eyes that are full of autumn water.

This Uncle Heng is like a magic weapon, with a clear distinction between likes and hates, she has never seen such a person.

To put it bluntly, he is just, he is tough, and he just looks at it at a glance. This person is definitely not to be humiliated!

In the history of Daiyu's growth, she has seen people who are aggressive, flattering and flattering, and people who are exquisite, but she has never seen such a person.

It's just that if such a person can't trample the world under his feet, he is abandoned by the world.

"Born with hard bones, I don't want to bend myself to others." Daiyu murmured from the bottom of her heart, her crooked eyelashes drooping slightly.

Why is she not like this?

It's just... After all, she couldn't be like this Uncle Heng, cutting out a bright universe with the sword in her hand.

But I also feel that this kind of person's bearing is really frustrating.

Thinking of this, Daiyu wanted to exchange glances with Tanchun, looked at Tanchun, Yurong paused, then felt it was funny, and covered her mouth with her handkerchief.

But Tanchun looked at the boy without moving his eyes for a moment.

Daiyu tugged Tanchun's little hand lightly, signaling... to restrain himself a little.

Tan Chunyingxiu's bright eyes under her brows cast a glance at Daiyu, and a blush quietly floated on Xue Ni's cheeks.

In fact, Sister Lin misunderstood, she is not...

There were no smile lines on Jia Mu's face, and she said coldly, "Brother Heng, this Qingwen has become more and more respectable after following you."

After all, she was her own daughter-in-law, and Jia Mu was also very annoyed when she was verbally insulted by a maid.

Jia Heng nodded, looked at Qingwen, took off Qingwen's two small hands that were clasped in both hands, and said with a straight face: "Qingwen, don't look at evil, don't speak evil, don't move... Go back and copy Three times."

Qingwen glanced at Jia Heng secretly, said yes, and then walked towards the inner room.

Daiyu blinked when she heard the words, her bright eyes moved slightly, there was something interesting in it, and she was clearly an intelligent person, a great onmyoji who was good at pointing, cursing, and insinuating, she naturally heard the undertones in Jia Heng's words.

Do not see evil is Baoyu, do not speak evil is Qingwen, and do not move is Wang Shanbao's family?

Jia Heng slowly turned his gaze to Jia's mother, said silently, "Old lady, Baoyu is not young anymore, I didn't mean him, he should study and improve, Chongwen Hall is about to be completed, and Baoyu can go there Reading books, rolling in the pile of makeup all day long, what does it look like?"

Baoyu: "..."

Daiyu just secretly pursed her lips and smiled.

This Uncle Heng is quite interesting, he clearly knows that Brother Bao doesn't like reading, so he just uses this as an argument.

However, he is the head of the patriarch, and he really can't find fault with saying this.

"Baoyu is still young..." Speaking of Baoyu, Jia's mother suppressed some dissatisfaction for the time being and said with a smile.

After all, he is the head of the clan, and the words of the evaluation have been passed down, and Baoyu... the wind evaluation was killed.

Mother Jia was quite awake, and she couldn't underestimate the young man in brocade clothes.

Even Mrs. Wang suddenly came over and looked at Jia Heng with some fear.

Jia Heng turned a blind eye and said lightly: "In that case, let him wait outside. Yan'er will go and give Baoyu the "Book of Songs" in the study, and let him read it carefully, don't just learn it. Exquisite naughtiness!"

What he said was very patriarchal, and even a little fatherly, which made Jiamu and Mrs. Wang speechless.

Mrs. Wang glanced at the young man, a gloomyness flashed in her eyes, she didn't know if it was her illusion, the young man's words just now made her feel offended.

Only Daiyu Qiushui blinked her bright eyes, licked her pink lips, and muttered in her heart, "Three hundred poems, in a word, thinking is innocent."

This is to wake up the second brother Bao.

If it is said that he fought against the clan before and saw its rigidity, then this kind of quick-witted mind is somewhat clever.

Daiyu looked at the cold-faced young man who was lifting weights lightly, and there was an indescribable feeling in her heart.

When you were young, you couldn't meet too amazing people.

Jia Heng felt Daiyu cast her eyes on him, so he nodded to Daiyu, and then nodded to Tanchun.

He asked Baoyu to recite the Book of Songs, not only because his thoughts were innocent, but also because he wanted to pay homage to the original work.

Of course, these are not important.

"Old lady, please."

Jia Heng put away his thoughts and stretched out his hand to invite him.

For a moment, everyone turned around and wanted to go to the flower hall.

However, Baoyu stood there stupidly, Zanbao's round face under the purple gold crown showed a sluggish look, looking at the "Book of Songs" handed by the maid in front of him, and the scene where everyone pulled away, I just feel sore in my heart, and I have a feeling of being abandoned by everything in the world.

With blue and red cheeks, he yanked the psychic jade around his neck and smashed it hard to the ground.

"What psychic gems, I don't want this kind of trouble!"

Jiamu paused her legs just as she stepped over the threshold, and her face changed drastically. She stepped forward and grabbed Baoyu's arm, crying, "Baoyu, why bother throwing that lifeblood! It's your lifeblood!"

Mrs. Wang also stepped forward, grabbed Baoyu's other arm, and said in a mournful voice, "My son..."

But everyone was in a hurry, Qiqi stepped forward to coax Baoyu, sisters and sisters surrounded him for a while, even Daiyu persuaded Baoyu.

Xiren trotted to pick up the psychic jade, and while wiping the psychic jade with a handkerchief, he said, "My second master, how can this jade be thrown around!"

Jia Heng frowned, turned to look at Baoyu who had returned to the center of the spotlight, and said in a deep voice, "Go and ask Mr. Zheng."

Everyone: "..."

Baoyu seemed to have been suspended from casting spells, he blinked, and the foolish and crazy look on his face was completely gone.

Seeing this scene, Tan Chunyingmei also blinked her big eyes, she couldn't help laughing, but Daiyu pulled her sleeves.

Tanchun looked up, only to see Mrs. Wang's face covered with frost, the smile on her face quickly disappeared, and she lowered her head slightly.

Sister Feng Danfeng had a half-smile in her eyes, she just smoothed things over and said, "Brother Heng, why is it so easy to invite Mr. Zheng?"

Jia Heng looked at the maid who went to pick up the jade, and said calmly: "Xi Ren, bring that jade, let me have a look."

Xiren was taken aback for a moment, but didn't respond, and turned to look at Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang.

Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang were a little confused about Jia Heng's way.

Jia Heng said lightly: "What kind of jade is so strong that it can't be broken after being dropped a few times. I want to try it."

Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, Li Wan: "..."

When Xiren heard this, Yu's face changed slightly, and he put the jade away quickly, lest the boy on the opposite side snatch it away and throw the jade in anger.

Jia Heng stretched out his hand to invite, and said, "Old lady, please."

Mother Jia sighed, looking at that still face, feeling helpless.

This Brother Heng has a serious face, a cold face and a hard heart, so why is his heart not warm?

It's in vain that she took the wind to wash away the dust yesterday, but now she pokes her precious jade with words.

Mrs. Wang also had a bad expression, looking at Jia Heng coldly.

As for Mrs. Xing, she also looked at the young man beside her with a gloomy expression.

But at this moment, suddenly, a woman from the outside trotted over, out of breath, and said: "Master Heng, the angel from the palace has come to deliver the decree."

Both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were taken aback, and looked at each other in blank dismay: "Decree, what is the decree?"

"The old lady wait for a while, Heng will go to receive the order, and she will return in a while." Jia Heng glanced at Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, and then went to the front yard.

When Jia Heng walked away, the woman took a deep breath, "I heard from the eunuch that it was for the uncle..."

"What... a knighthood?" Mother Jia said in surprise, with a storm in her heart.

Mrs. Wang's complexion changed suddenly, and a "bad" hunch appeared in her heart.

Tanchun said in a low voice: "Could it be that yesterday's success in suppressing the bandits was returned to Beijing, and the Holy Majesty rewarded him with a noble?"

"Go and see what the imperial decree says..." Mother Jia's heart skipped a beat, and she ordered Lin Zhixiao's family who were serving behind her.

Conferring a title, is it possible that her Jia family has double titles and is coming back again?

And Daiyu raised her bright eyes and looked at the front yard.

Not long after, Lin Zhixiao's family ran back, with a smile on his face, he said: "Old lady, madam, the imperial decree says that Uncle Heng succeeded in suppressing the bandits, and that Uncle Heng was named the third-class General Yunhui."

When Jia's mother heard the words, she was taken aback for a moment, and then suspected that she had misheard because she was old, and said anxiously, "How many generals have you been appointed?"

"Third-class General Yunhui!"

Jia Mu's cheeks trembled slightly, and then she proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said with a smile: "Okay, the title is back."

Mrs. Wang's face was gloomy, and she said: "Why does this title sound the same as last time? Could it be a raid..."

Tanchun pursed his lips, hesitated for a while, and said softly: "Madam, the imperial edict said that it was due to meritorious deeds, so I think it is different from attacking."

Before Mrs. Wang could speak, Mother Jia also laughed and said, "Baoyu's mother, you don't know something. How can you issue an edict if you attack the prince?"

Ning Guo's branch has won the title again, even after a hundred years, she will still have the face to meet the two dukes.

There was also a slight smile on Li Wan's suya face, and he said: "Don't be gracious to Zu Yin, and get fame for yourself. I think this is a good story about Brother Sheng Quanheng."

Tan Chunmei's eyes sparkled, and he said in a clear voice, "It should be the reason."

Daiyu played with a lock of hair hanging down her front with two fingers, glanced sideways at Tanchun, smiled lightly, and said, "I think one day I will be included in the history books."

Tanchun pursed his pink lips, and gave Daiyu an annoyed look.

It turned out that after Tanchun went back yesterday, he was in a difficult mood. He wrote the fake history book in front of the book case in the boudoir, but Daiyu saw it and made fun of it for a long time.

Sister Feng said with a smile on her face, "Old Ancestor, you don't have to worry about being unable to sleep at night anymore."

Mother Jia smiled, stretched out her hand and nodded at Sister Feng, and said, "I have to go to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors later. This is a great event to pay respects to the ancestors!"

And Qin Keqing behind the bead curtain in the inner room also had a look of joy on her bright and beautiful face.

Baoyu stood in the corner, looking at his back to himself, Qiqi looked at the front yard, the sadness of being abandoned by the world and everything surged into his heart again, his eyes were dazed, and he subconsciously wanted to grab his neck, but he fell behind. empty.

Looking up, Xiren was holding a psychic gem wrapped in a handkerchief in his hand, and he was also looking at the moon gate in the front yard with his feet on his feet.

In the front yard, Jia Heng received the imperial decree, thanked him for his grace, and turned his attention to Dai Quan.

"Jia Ziyu, the miscellaneous family won't hang around anymore, and I have to go to the palace to report to His Majesty." Dai Quan smiled at Jia Heng, and cupped his hands in the direction of Daming Palace.

Jia Heng said, "Then I'll send it off to Eunuch."

He sent Dai Quan and the inner eunuch all the way to the gate. While saying goodbye at the gate, he stuffed 1000 taels of silver into Dai Quan's hand before turning around and returning.

When they walked to the courtyard, they heard Qu Lang leading a few Jinyi guards coming from the side courtyard, all of them were smiling and said congratulatoryly, "Congratulations, my lord, you have been awarded the title."

Jia Heng was also somewhat pleased, but with a calm face, he said: "It's all about the great grace of the emperor."
