The Red Chamber: My Stunning Confidante with a Variety of Styles

Night falls, and the moon hangs high.

The Jia Mansion Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet officially opened.

The night banquet hall is divided into two parts, the inner and outer halls, the inner hall is for women, and the outer hall is for men.

Jia Jue sat in the outer hall, and on this table sat Jia Zheng, Jia She, Jia Lian, Jia Cong, Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan, and another man who looked fierce.

The rest of the tables are located next to the Jia family in the capital.

By the way, Jia Rong, You Shi, Qin Keqing and others did not attend because they wanted to observe filial piety for Jia Zhen.However, Jia She and his wife were temporarily lifted because of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Jia Jue looked at the few people on the table, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, except for Jia Zheng, everyone else seemed to have a cold attitude towards him.

Especially Jia She and the vicious person looked at him with a bit of disgust and hostility in their eyes.

"Jue'er, this is an old family, Sun Shaozu, the head of the Sun family." Jia Zheng introduced to Jia Jue.

It turned out that he was Sun Shaozu, and it really was born from the heart.

Jia Jue nodded lightly at him, but did not greet him.

Seeing this, Sun Shaozu sneered: "It turns out that this is Young Master Yu, who is known as the number one talent in the capital. As expected, he is not as famous as seeing him, but he is really like a daughter's family."

This is to say that Jia Zheng's complexion changed, and Sun Shaozu compared Jia Jue with a woman, which was clearly humiliating Jia Jue.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Jia She say: "Nephew Shi, what you said is wrong. Brother Jue is more shrewd than an ordinary daughter's family."

Sun Shaozu laughed when he heard the words: "It's extremely, it's extremely, I'm a rude person, I can't say what a scholar says, I'll punish myself with three cups!"

Saying that, he raised the glass and poured it into his mouth.

Even Jia She said so, Jia Zheng could only put down the fire and talk to Jia Jue to soothe his emotions.

Jia Jue smiled lightly, he didn't care about Sun Shaozu's words at all, he didn't even want to pay attention to him, he was just scum, just ignore it.

Sun Shaozu seems to be very close to Jia She, and they have always talked very happily.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Sun Shaozu suddenly asked Jia Jue again, "Young Master Jue, I heard that you were kicked out of the Imperial Prison?"

He said this loudly, but it attracted the attention of the entire outer hall. Everyone looked at Jia Jue, waiting for him to reply.

Recently, such a statement has become extremely popular in the Jia family, and they all want to know how Jia Jue will answer.

Jia Jue glanced at him and said lightly, "Nothing, I have graduated from the Imperial College."

Everyone heard the words with disbelief. Others may not be able to graduate in a few years. You went for half a month and then graduated?
Who are you fooling?

Sun Shaozu also laughed: "Young Master Jue, young man, who doesn't want to be decent? I save it, I save it!"

Many people showed mocking smiles when they heard the words. They were kicked out for not studying hard, but they lied that they had completed their studies. Isn't this ridiculous.

Jia She glanced at Jia Jue, and feigned anger at Sun Shaozu: "Nephew, how can you expose someone's shortcomings? Brother Jue said that he has finished his school, and you are finished."

"Yes, yes. It's my fault." Sun Shaozu smiled and raised his glass to Jia Jue, "I apologize to Young Master Jue and punish myself for a cup."

As he spoke, he drank all the wine in the cup.

"Nephew Shi is good at drinking." Jia She laughed.

Sun Shaozu wiped his mouth, put down the cup, and said to Jia Jue, "Young Master Jue, although you can't go to the Guozijian to study, I have a good job for you."

"Oh? What's the errand?" Jia She puffed up at the right time.

Sun Shaozu said proudly: "I got a vacancy in the Ministry of War, and what I said can be considered useful. I see that Young Master Jue is strong, witty and smart, and can read and write. Why don't I go to serve as the city gate official?"

The city gate official, as the name suggests, is the small official who guards the gate.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Jia Jue, the little official guarding the city gate, with smiles in their eyes. The wind was blowing, the sun was blowing, the snow and the rain were not to mention, and there was almost no possibility of promotion. If there was a war, or something unexpected happened. When the situation occurs, they are the first to die.

Is this a bad thing?
"Hahaha, nephew, okay, this is a good job!" Jia She raised her glass with a smile, looking at Jia Jue with a smug look in her eyes.

……

inner hall.

Coincidentally with the outer hall, the inner hall was also talking about Jia Jue, and the initiator was Sun Shaozu's mother, the Zhu family.

"Old lady, if you want me to tell me, Brother Jue is too old, so he can't be idle at home every day. Since he can't read, he will let him go out and break in. Although the city gate official is inconspicuous, in the end he is a member of the public gate. , there is always one hundred and twelve taels of silver a year." Zhu Shi said to Jia Mu.

Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang on the side smiled at the same time.

Mrs. Xing laughed, because this was something she discussed with the Zhu family. Jia She planned to use the power of the Sun family to get Jia Jue out of Jia's house.

In addition, there is Sun Shaozu pressing.Inside, there is Sun Shaozu's cousin hindering him.

Can he turn the sky over?
And Mrs. Wang laughed because the proposal was very much to her liking.She wished Jia Jue to get out of the way, not to fight with Jia Baoyu.

They laughed, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Lin Daiyu and others frowned.

Mother Jia hesitated when she heard the words: "It's good to be able to serve in the public gate, but it's just a mere city gate official, I'm afraid..."

She had high expectations for Jia Jue, an inexperienced city gate official was really far from her expectations.

Zhu Shi quickly persuaded: "Old lady, this is a rare opportunity, if you miss it, it won't be so good, don't underestimate this city gate official, we are the capital, where does the war come from, comfort It's very good. Besides, Brother Jue was expelled from the Imperial College and was slapped by His Majesty. I'm afraid this book will not be read. Which examiner would dare to order him?"

Mother Jia nodded when she heard the words. Indeed, Jia Jue had done such a thing, and she was afraid that she would not be able to study. It is true that no examiner would risk offending the emperor to select him.

Seeing her moving, Madam Xing said quickly, "Don't worry, the old lady is, with Shaozu here, how could Brother Jue endure hardship? Even after becoming that city gate officer, I'm afraid that he will be promoted in a few years. At that time, if you can get a sixth or seventh rank official, it will be very good.”

Madam Wang also persuaded: "What the eldest wife said is that Brother Jue is a capable person. If you let him go out and beat him, maybe he will become a talent?"

Wang Xifeng said this, Li Wan and other women were secretly annoyed, Jia Jue was a little smaller than Jia Baoyu, why didn't you say let Jia Baoyu go out and beat him?

Jia's mother was really moved when she heard the words. Jia Zheng was only a foreign worker from the fifth rank of the labor department. If Jia Jue could get a sixth or seventh rank officer, it would be not bad.

"Old lady." At this moment, Li Wan called out quickly, "Brother Jue was not kicked out of the Guozijian, he just graduated."

Mother Jia hadn't answered yet, but Madam Xing sneered, "He finished his studies in half a month that others could not complete in a few years? Everyone else is stupid, but he is the only one who is smart?"

"The eldest wife is wrong. The number one talent in Northern Zhili, the champion, is not as good as Brother Jue." Wang Xifeng said.

"Completed? Will you take out the documents and take a look?" Mrs. Wang glanced at Wang Xifeng and said lightly.

At this time, she had completely attributed Wang Xifeng to Jia Jue's group.

Lin Daiyu interrupted at this time: "Grandmother, the third brother said that he graduated, then he has graduated, why don't we wait a few days and see?"

Mrs. Xing sneered: "When he said that he has completed his studies, he has completed his studies? Why didn't he say that he was in the middle?"

Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Lin Daiyu and other women looked at her with annoyed eyes, but they really had no choice.

However, just when the voice fell, a gong sound suddenly came from outside:
"Congratulations! Congratulations! The third son of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Jue, won No. 1 in the Shuntian Prefecture Examination! High school Jieyuan!"

Hearing this sentence, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Zhu were stunned by lightning.
