Winning every step of the Red Mansion

112

The three of them talked with Mr. Zhang for a while before asking to resign from Zhang's residence.Peng Luo was preoccupied and left on his own.Jia She and Jia Hu went the same way.

"Hu'er, if you have free time, go back to the house more often to see the old lady and the wife. They often talk about it, and I miss you a lot."

Hearing what Jia She said, Jia Hu immediately lowered his head and said in a low voice, "This is Hu'er being unfilial." Jia She patted her on the shoulder and said: "You are so progressive, the old lady and the wife are all happy, It’s just that we don’t see each other very often these days so we can’t help but miss it.” Jia Amnesty said again: “Your grandfather has gone through great events, so you should carefully write down what you said today and savor it slowly. Now that you are the emperor’s grandson’s companion, you must pay more attention. Let the glitz cover your eyes."

"What the father said is true, the son will remember it." It was rare for the father and son to talk like this all the way.The two returned to the mansion together. As soon as Jia Amnesty came in, he asked his old friend to invite him out to a banquet again.After a lot of tossing, Jia Amnesty naturally lost interest, because it was his own promise, and it was really hard to shirk, so he had to keep the appointment.Jia Hu had time to visit the old lady and his wife.

"Brother Enhou, it is really difficult to see you now." As soon as Jia She entered the banquet, someone said: "Today I am late again, and I will punish you with three glasses of wine first."

Jia Amnesty had no choice but to drink the fine wine as promised.These old friends are all dudes of princes and nobles who I often hang out with in the early years.In terms of knowledge and ability, each of them is the bottom, but in terms of spending money like water, everyone is a hero.These years, due to the many affairs in the mansion, Jia Amnesty didn't take care of socializing with these people, and gradually alienated them a lot.Today's covenant is also because it is really impossible to shirk.

"Okay, okay, I'll punish myself with three cups." Jia She entered the table and responded with a smile.Everyone laughed, and someone came to pour wine for Jia Amnesty.Qianqiansu held a jug in her hand, slowly filled it up, and handed it over with a smiling face.

At first, Jia Amnesty just looked at the wine glass but didn't pay attention to the person pouring the wine, but when he raised his head suddenly, he was amazed.The girl's face is three-pointed with peach blossoms, and her slender waist is swaying with her hands, which does not have a certain charm.The wine was full, and he was not in a hurry to leave, but held the glass and brought it to Jia She himself, and said softly: "Please."

Before he had finished the wine, Jia Amnesty felt his body go numb at the words, the voice seemed to be scratching his heart with his little finger, making his internal organs itch.Jia She raised her neck and drank the wine, and the woman poured a second glass immediately, and said with her lips in front of her servant: "Please again, General." After drinking this glass of wine, it disturbed all the blood in her body, and her forehead was also disturbed. Slightly sweating.

The woman took out a red handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped off Jia She's sweat lightly, poured another glass of wine and handed it over: "The general will be fined if he drinks this glass again." Jia She raised his neck and took a drink. After that, someone in the crowd praised: "Enhou is a good drinker, as long as he was in the past." "

Jia Amnesty waved his hands again and again, and sighed: "Everyone, please forgive me, but I came late today because of something at home. I should invite you to this table today."

"Enhou is still so bold and unrestrained, praise. I thought that now that Enhou is promising and has received a reward in front of the Holy Master, he would not want to be with us anymore. In the past, I invited you eight times out of ten, but today I see you Come to Enhou to recognize us as friends. I will respect Enhou."

Jia Amnesty took a look and saw that the person he was toasting with was Song Shichao, the cousin of the young prince of the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion. He had a good relationship with the Prince of the Xiaojun on weekdays, so he quickly returned the gift and had a drink with him.

Seeing Jia She drank the wine, Song Shichao smiled and said, "Since Enhou entered the table, Miss Ning'er has only one person in her eyes. Miss Ning'er, please come and have a drink with me." These words caused everyone to laugh, The woman named Ning'er blushed and bowed her head and walked over, and fed her a glass of wine just like before.After drinking, Song Shichao said with a smile: "This beauty really tastes different when pouring wine." Everyone laughed again when they heard the words.

"Brother Enhou, you have also shown your face in front of the Holy Master now. There is nothing to choose in terms of family business. A few years ago, the treasury was empty and there were wars. Brother Enhou actually took so much money out. Now the family business has been beaten. Reasonable." Song Shichao said: "Now Enhou will also help you and my brothers and friends."

Jia Amnesty knew that this visit was by no means a simple drinking and feasting, there must be something going on.But among this group of people, whoever is not rich in the family, who is either rich or expensive, needs his own help.Jia Amnesty arched his hands and said: "Brother Yanbo's words are wrong, everyone at the banquet today is the best among the people, so it's my turn, Jia Enhou, to be arrogant."

"Why should Enhou be so self-effacing, I really have something to ask for today."

"Brother Yanbo speaks seriously. If you have something to say, just say it. If Jia can do what he can, he will definitely help." Today, Jia Amnesty is also different from his early years.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I occasionally heard that there is a good antique in the hands of a family, and I intend to buy it, because the antique is really rare and the price is high, and I am afraid that someone will take it away, so I want to ask Brother Enhou for help." Just wait and see."

Hearing that this was the case, Jia Amnesty breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and agreed.Song Shichao was also happy, and asked Miss Ning'er to accompany her for a drink, and everyone naturally had another drink with her.

Jia Amnesty was a little fuzzy, moved the food and drink a little, and asked, "Anything that catches your eye must be a good thing. What kind of thing is it, and you still have doubts about it? Let's hear it."

Song Shichao laughed aloud, and put down the chopsticks: "If it's other ordinary objects, I don't bother Brother Enhou. Only this thing should be seen by Brother Enhou. I heard that Mr. Zhang is celebrating his birthday this year, so Enhou Brother presented a Sichuan plain post as a congratulatory gift, is this really true?"

Jia Shen's last sentence was just to pick a topic, but Song Shichao's words almost made Jia Shen bite his tongue.

"Ahem, Brother Yanbo is well-informed." Jia She said calmly, "Let's not talk about the authenticity of this Shu Su Tie, even a copy is rare, and I also got a good copy by chance, and dedicated it to the old man for his birthday. " Naturally, Jia Amnesty would not explain the origin of Shu Sutie to everyone, and said a few vague words in order to confuse the topic.

"If that's the case, I'm relieved." Song Shichao nodded and said, "I was quite tempted to hear that he had Shu Su Tie in his hand, but after hearing that Brother Enhou also presented one to Mr. Zhang, I thought his share should be False. But hearing what Enhou said today, it is worth taking a look."

How come there is another Shu Su post?Or the real thing?At this moment, Jia Amnesty felt that all the wine he drank just now poured into his head, and he was very dizzy.

"I've only heard about it and never seen it. I think that since Brother Enhou has seen the copy, he must be able to tell the authenticity." Song Shichao said to Jia She.

It seems that there is always something wrong.But I couldn't figure out what was wrong, Jia She frowned slightly and drank the wine in the glass. It would not be surprising if there was another copy, maybe it was a fake that was called the real one. I want to take a look.

"If you are lucky enough to see it, it would be a coincidence." Jia She pretended to compliment him, "If you can see the real work, it is thanks to brother Yanbo."

"Brother Enhou, you're being polite, but in the first place, if it's the real thing, brother Enhou, don't take my place first."

"How can it be, it's good to have a look."

"Brother Enhou is so considerate, so I will thank you in advance. Miss Ning'er must take good care of Brother Enhou today and do her best on my behalf."

Miss Ning'er smiled and stood next to Jia She, refilling the dishes and pouring wine.If it was said that just now Jia She had a slight rippling in his heart towards Miss Ning'er, at this moment Jia She was so absorbed in pondering over the sudden appearance of a picture of Shu Su Tie, he didn't bother to pay attention to the others.

After the banquet was over, Jia Amnesty felt a little drunk.Song Shichao politely said to stay with each other, but Jia She refused.The two finalized the appointment, and Jia Amnesty went back to the mansion.

On the way, Jia She wanted to go to Zhang's mansion again to see the authentic painting, and also wanted to discuss with Lao Yueshan how to distinguish its authenticity, but he thought that the old man was old and it was too late to disturb him, so he went back to the mansion. go.

Back at the mansion, the night was already deep, Mrs. Zhang was still waiting for her return, she was happy to see Jia Amnesty's return.Today the eldest son went back to the mansion to accompany him for half a day, and said that he would visit the mansion more in the future when he was free, which made Mrs. Zhang very happy.

Seeing Mrs. Zhang beaming at her face, Jia Amnesty stirred up the rippling in her heart.With a finger on his lips, he said with a smile: "Didn't you usually talk about having another daughter, but today your wish is granted." Then he pulled him into the inner room.

Early the next morning, Jia Amnesty went to greet Jia Mu.Seeing him, Shi Feier asked: "Why did your father-in-law look for you yesterday, this is the first time I saw him looking for you like this."

Jia Amnesty then reported to Jia's mother one by one all the things that turned yesterday's copy into the real one.At the end, I also mentioned by the way that there was another picture of Shu vegetarian post when I was having dinner with my old friends, and I sighed a lot.

Shi Feier smiled and said: "There are many coincidences in this world, otherwise there would be no such thing as a coincidence. Maybe the painting you will see in the future is also written by your father-in-law."

After hearing this, Jia Amnesty smiled, "Where is such a coincidence, if it is true, it would be a strange story."

Shi Feier also smiled, and the two chatted for a while.Jia Amnesty was about to leave, but the Ningfu sent someone again, saying that they wanted to invite Jia's mother to listen to the play.Although Shi Feier didn't want to go, she had no choice but to agree.

A few days ago, Jia Min mentioned that Dong Tong came to Beijing to visit his sister.Jia Min also mentioned that he was going to kowtow to thank him, but Shi Feier avoided it. After all, there are many rules in the mansion, and he can't say a few words just by kowtow to thank him. To test some.Shi Fei'er was thinking of meeting someone by the way when he went to the Lin Mansion again.But it just happened to coincide with the day when Ning Mansion was listening to operas.Shi Fei'er thought for a while and wrote a letter, ordering someone to send it to the Lin Mansion, and postponed the day of going to the Lin Mansion.

Jia Amnesty took another trip to Zhang's mansion before going to appreciate it.Mr. Zhang was a little curious when he heard about it.She said to Jia She, if the copy is also good, you might as well buy it and have a look.

Jia Amnesty actually asked carefully about the method of distinguishing the authenticity of this calligraphy, and because he remembered Jia Mu's joke, he also carefully looked at the painting that Mr. Zhang copied.

When the appointed day came, Song Shichao waited for the government to invite him this morning.The two rode on horseback for half a block and arrived at a house in the suburbs of Beijing.Song Shichao nodded and said.

Jia Amnesty looked around, feeling a little strange, the house looked small and small, and he hadn't heard of any famous family living in seclusion here.Thinking about it, if a celebrity family lived in seclusion, he should go to a place far away from the capital with beautiful mountains and rivers.No matter how you look at such a house, it is the home of ordinary people.What kind of authentic antiques can such a family have?Jia Amnesty was upset.

"This place looks dilapidated, but the objects are really good. I bought a few good calligraphy and paintings before I believed it. If it weren't for this Shu plain post, I really can't make up my mind. I definitely wouldn't ask Brother Enhou for money." Song Shichao As if seeing Jia Amnesty's doubts, he explained.

Jia Amnesty nodded, and the servant went to knock on the door early, and after a while, the courtyard door opened.A thin man with hunchback and shrunken shoulders came out.Seeing Song Shichao, he immediately bowed his hands with a smile on his face and said, "It turns out that the distinguished guest, Mr. Song, has arrived. Please hurry up." Turning his face to look at Jia Amnesty, he also smiled and said, "This master looks at wealth and honor, but he just doesn't know it. Very, I don’t know how to call it? May I ask your surname?”

Before Jia She could speak, he listened to Song Shichao's words: "This lord is General Jia, Uncle Jia of Rongguo Mansion. Don't gossip here, go and show us something."

The author has something to say: ... I have no sense of responsibility ...

Jia Amnesty: Why do I have an ominous premonition.

Chocolate Chip: Your hunch was right.

Jia Amnesty: Old lady, did you hear someone talking?

Shi Feier: It's okay, just treat it like a dog barking and a cat meowing.

Jia She: ...but...

Shi Feier: It's nothing serious, don't you really hope that the ominous situation will come true?fool!

Jia Amnesty: Old lady, you heard it too!

Shi Feier: So what, he doesn't dare to do anything to you anyway.Could it be worse than confiscating your home and exile for three thousand miles?

Jia Amnesty: Old lady, I'm timid, so don't scare me.

Shi Feier: It's okay, it's healthier to be frightened.
