By Jia Xiuzhen

This is not the only place where marriage is mentioned.

This day, Jia Amnesty called Jia Lian to talk about the affairs of Chang'an County and Ping'an Prefecture, and about Yingchun's marriage.Jia She then said: "Everyone is ready-made, you should also know that it is the Sun family who voted for us in the past."

Jia Lian thought for a while and said, "Is that from martial arts?"

Jia She said: "That's right, the Sun family boy will be 25-[-] this year, and now he is in short supply in the military department, so he is considered a talent."

Jia Lian said hesitantly: "Second sister's temperament, I just need to find someone from a scholarly family to pay it off. If she has a rough temper, she is afraid that she won't get along with her. She is already soft-tempered, and she will be wronged when she meets a powerful Qing."

Jia Amnesty glared: "How can there be any personal relationship in a marriage like ours?! Naturally, we should talk about it from the relationship between the two governments. Now we are planning a big event, and we are going to ask for a few people in Wu. If his family is settled There is a man of the same age, married in-laws, isn’t it a bit more stable than usual?! You worthless thing! You are full of infidelity between men and women, so you are so easily dominated by women! Things have not yet been settled, I just Just talk to you for nothing, and you will know what you have in mind."

Jia Lian didn't dare to disobey him, so he asked Jia Amnesty, "Do you want to send someone to find out who the family is?"

Jia She scolded: "There are so many important things waiting for you to do and you still can't get them done. It doesn't matter if you are busy with these things! They want to propose a marriage, and they have a matchmaker to come to the door. What can't be explained?! You need to inquire! After staying for a long time, I have become more and more idiot, and I have to treat these trivial matters as a serious matter all day long!"

Jia Lian didn't dare to say anything anymore, went back and mentioned something to Sister Feng, and then threw it away.

Sister Feng heard that it was Jia Amnesty who mentioned it, and it's hard to be sure what the old man said. She talked to Mrs. Wang once, and everyone knew it, but she didn't take it very seriously.Jia's mother also heard some rumors, but Mrs. Jia Shexing did not discuss with her in the future, or the matter has not yet been finalized; and the marriage of a child is always the order of the parents, so I don't want to be very concerned about how old I am.

In this way, this thing just blows away like a gust of wind.Right now, the Manchu people are all focusing their eyes on Jia Mu's 28th birthday, and all the bones in their bodies are tense.Because there were too many people to invite, everyone discussed it. Mother Jia's birthday was originally on the third day of August, and this birthday started from the [-]th until the fifth day of August.First, the princes, concubines, and other relatives of the royal family were invited, and then went down to the governors and towns of the capital, the officials, and the old friends and relatives far and near; In the end, Lai Da and other managers gathered together for one day, and it was so lively for eight days.The Ning Mansion is in charge of treating all the officials and guests, and the Rong Mansion specially invites the guests. The two parties hold separate banquets, each with a convenient meal.

The old sage in the palace cared about Jiuxun's family, and now he is known as the most filial and pure benevolent. Only in July, the Ministry of Rites ordered to bestow Ruyi colored satin and other things.Later, Yuan Chun ordered his personal eunuch to give another birthday gift. After that, princes and nobles came and went, and there was an endless stream of gift-givers.In the main room, a big table with red felt is laid out, and all kinds of exquisite birthday gifts are put on display for Jia Mu to appreciate.Only one kind of rice feeds all kinds of people, how many rare and rare things are spread out like this, and there are many people who are envious and secretly hate.Those who showed their whereabouts made it embarrassing for sensible people.After a few days, Mother Jia asked Sister Feng to put them away first, saying that she would read them later when she was free.

On the first day, all the concubines, concubines, and wives of the monarch arrived, and it was rare for Jia's mother to sit with her.Daiyu came early in the morning. After the banquet, Jiamu and the others went to drink tea and watch a play in the garden. Daiyu and the others watched another small opera singing in the hall of Jiamu's courtyard.Xiang Yun leaned over and talked to her: "Aren't you the least fond of watching theaters? Today is a good day."

Daiyu said with a smile: "It is because of this that my husband said that I don't even know a play. These days, I have heard her talk about plays every day, and now I can listen to a few plays with patience."

Xiang Yun said: "You are so lucky, other people want such a person to take care of them, but they can't get it. It took so much trouble to hire a teacher here, and those teachers are not worthy of carrying Mr. Yunyang's shoes."

Daiyu shook her head and said, "That's nonsense again, there's no such comparison."

Xiangyun asked again: "Aren't you going home this time?"

Daiyu said: "Today, my ancestors have to stay with me outside, and I can't talk well. I have to stay for two days anyway, or my ancestors will annoy me."

Xichun turned her head and said, "Sister Lin, you can sleep with me tonight. Let Guiliu sleep with me."

Daiyu laughed and said, "You might as well just take her and settle the matter, and you don't have to use me as a cover. I've already made an agreement with my sister-in-law. She even cleaned up the house for me, so I won't bother you. "

Xichun nodded resentfully, and Daiyu said to Guiliu standing behind her, "Look, why don't you go to Miss Si's place today."

Gui Liu shook her head: "Success! I'll sit on the highest ridge, and the girls don't need to arrange another person. I'll go to bed alone."

Xiangyun couldn't help laughing: "Oh, are you a good ear or a clairvoyant? Sun Monkey is not as good as you!"

Gui Liu hurriedly waved his hands modestly: "Miss Shi is too much for her praise, I don't know his many changes, I'm far behind."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Just at this time, Sister Feng came over and told Jia Mu that Daiyu Baochai, Xiangyun Baoqin and Tanchun went there.Xiang Yun smiled and said: "It must be the Concubine Nan'an who has come. I heard that the sisters here are all outstanding, so they always said that they want to see each other."

A few people got up, their clothes were for traveling, and they didn't need to change, so they took people to the other side.After hearing Xiangyun's words, Baochai asked, "How can the concubine have heard of us?"

Xiang Yun thought for a while and said: "I really don't know who spread the news. It's just that the sisters are all outstanding and talented. I saw them at outside banquets a few times, and the concubine even asked me to ask. on."

Tanchun said: "There is no one else, I guess it is the second elder brother. He said he didn't listen to it several times, but he can go out, but we can't. He just said no, and we can't do anything about him."

Baochai comforted her, "It's a good thing it's the concubine or princess asking about it, so it's all right."

Daiyu said: "This is what we heard. Who knows who is talking about it outside? Let me tell you, you should be careful in the future, especially the things with calligraphy, ink and brushwork. Don't forget about it." In my brother's eyes, I don't know who I'm talking about when I turn around."

Tanchun sighed: "It's still my poetry club's fault."

Daiyu said: "What are you talking about! Then, is it the Han family's responsibility for Wang Mang to usurp power? Isn't it the fault of Yan Shifan for framing Mo Huaigu?"

Tanchun smiled and said, "I know that you have watched a lot of dramas recently."

Baochai also laughed: "Really, your mouth is too much compared."

After talking, they arrived, and when someone from the head went in to report, a few people followed two maids in palace costumes to go in.When everyone met each other, Grand Concubine Nan'an had read and praised them all, then she took Daiyu's hand and asked, "Is this the daughter of Lin Tanhua's family?"

Jia Mu laughed and said, "It's my granddaughter."

Concubine Nan'an looked at it carefully again, and said with a smile to Jia Mu: "I really don't know what to say, there are such people in the world!" five servings.Concubine Nan'an took off a green jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on Daiyu's hand, she said with a smile: "If you let Mr. Yunyang know that her apprentice is not a decent person when I saw her once, then don't beat me next time." Come out!" This sentence made everyone laugh.

Princess Beijing and Mrs. Marquis of Jinxiang also gave gifts to each other. Princess Nan'an pulled Daiyu to sit beside her, and asked some questions about what she did on weekdays and what dramas she liked to listen to. Seeing Daiyu again The words are elegant and the answer is calm, so I can't help but praise Jia Mu.

When they re-entered the banquet, the concubine Taifei resigned, and then Princess Beijing also resigned. Those who went one after another, Jia Mu couldn't force them to stay, so they all sent them to the gate of the garden according to the etiquette.Most of them went to the final table. At the end of the day, Mother Jia was also very tired. She only disappeared after telling Mrs. Wang, and let her and Mrs. Xing take care of each other.Mrs. Wang naturally took the order.

In the evening, Daiyu rested in Daoxiang Village. Guiliu was afraid that Daiyu would not be used to sleeping outside, so she even brought all the quilts, pillows and tents, so she went there early in the morning to make cleaning arrangements.While Mo Ge'er and Nanny Xin were waiting for Daiyu to wash, she was talking to Jia Lan on the rocks in the yard outside.

Naturally, what he was talking about was the so-called kung fu method that Gui Liu gave last year.Jia Lan said: "Sister Guiliu, does that market of yours only sell tricks to deceive people? I have been practicing the exercise you gave me for more than a year. Where have I seen any supernatural powers? A gentleman loves money to get it." It’s not a good idea to sell fakes.”

Guiliu's face twitched: "You! Alas, I can't say this to you ordinary people! Can you practice that exercise in one year... one year? I gave it to you with the blood in my heart. Just follow the practice, if you can get started in seven or eight years, and earn income in five or sixty years, it will be good, and that will protect you... What do you say here? Longevity! By the way, at least live It’s okay to be a hundred years old. You’ve just practiced for a year, and you’re still thinking about supernatural powers! I... If it’s really that easy, I’m still not satisfied with my abilities? What are you waiting for?!”

Jia Lan said with a sullen face: "You don't have any difficulties. It's only seven or eight years since you started, and we have practiced it in two months. As a result, there is nothing! Didn't you mean to help practice supernatural powers? What about supernatural powers? What about my supernatural powers? ?”

Gui Liu was suspicious: "Have you finished your practice? You...you try some punches and I'll see."

Jia Lan glanced at her, raised his fist, and with the power of Gui Liu, his head suddenly shone, and when Jia Lan stretched out his arm, the fist sank into the rock beside him like blazing iron. in.As soon as he retracted his fist, there was a round black hole on the stone, and the surrounding area was as smooth as melting, as if the stone had been pierced by years of water droplets.

Jia Lan looked up at her, Gui Liu couldn't help but licked her lips and swallowed, looked at Jia Lan and said, "This is really... so, tell me about your body training from beginning to end. , Let me think about what's going on, logically speaking, you can punch holes so easily, it doesn't make sense and you don't have supernatural powers."

Jialan couldn't wait for this sentence, so he told the story from the beginning of taking the medicine bath to the later getting the exercises.He had promised Li Wan about Long Xi and Cang Huling, not to talk to anyone else.Although Guiliu knew that he must have got some kind of opportunity, he only thought that he had picked up some magical treasures and elixir.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gui Liu groaned for a long time and asked, "Do you still have that medicine bag? Can you show me?"

Jia Lan took out a small sachet from the Dragon Clothes Realm and handed it to Gui Liu, "Here, this is the only one I have with me."

Gui Liu didn't seem to expect him to be so forthright, she opened her mouth but didn't speak, took it over and smelled it, and then tried her spiritual power and sense to probe.His complexion changed like a day in June. After a long while, he returned it to Jia Lan, and said with a long breath, "Brother, you are lucky to stay in this place where birds don't shit. If you are in Luolingguan, hey, it's just like you Yes, the 81 sects of the Seven Sects and Nineteen Sects may have to line up and take turns to tie you up."

Jalan looked at her and blinked.

Gui Liu sneered and said, "Why? To demand a ransom from Grandma! This guy, if he kidnaps you once, he will probably get back a windfall, so why not? Really."

Jia Lan frowned: "Then it's better to just tie my mother up."

Guiliu shook her head: "Grandma even used the 'Washing Marrow Grass', 'Huaqi Cloud Lingguo', and 'Erosion Golden Vine' to fill your marrow and strengthen your tendons, who knows if she still has 'Dead Soul Wind Grass'?" , 'Mist Killing', 'One Breath Return'? I can't afford it. But you, who are in good health, have been tied up to eat and drink well. The grandma loves you so much, and she is definitely willing to pay the ransom. This business... really works Got it."

Jia Lan raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Then I'll pick them out one by one when I'm good enough."

Guiliu swallowed again: "Okay, let's not talk about the disappearance. But you remember a word, don't let people see such things casually in the future. You have seen demons, demons, and Xius here. , It’s impossible to be so big. Although most people here don’t have much knowledge, what if they recognize one or two things on your body? I'm afraid I will plot against you in every possible way. Of course you are not afraid, after all, are there many people around you? Besides, one thing more is worse than one thing less."

Jia Lan nodded: "I know this, I will give it to anyone you want? You can only show it to you if you ask me."

Gui Liu nodded in relief, and Jia Lan asked again, "Speak up! Tell me where did my supernatural power go? Why didn't I have it?"

Gui Liu sighed: "I don't know how to be blessed when I am blessed. Do you know why I said that it takes seven or eight years to get started? This body training is like refining a weapon. The materials are the same thing, and it must be possessed by a god. Refining a weapon To get the treasures of heaven, material and earth, you must have a corresponding magic circle, and you must be able to engrave it and fuse it together. Putting it on a human body, you need to refine your muscles and bones and skin, and the other is to expand your meridians. Neither can be achieved overnight.

Especially the widening of the meridians, where is it so easy?Especially those of you here, although this body is ingenious, it is too fragile, if one is not careful, the exercises are too powerful, and the meridians may be injured if they cannot bear it.How many spirit stones did you pile up!As far as you take a bath, I'm afraid you won't be able to collect it all in the Fuchen Market for a while!Who won't keep such a thing well, so that it can be used for alchemy when breaking through later? !You use it to strengthen your muscles!

With the help of medicinal power, even if your body has been tempered once, you can get started faster than others.Besides, haven't you been practicing that kung fu that you dare to call yourself 'extreme soul'?Probably a bit of a foundation.I think you may not have taken many pills earlier, because you have achieved not only the physical body, but also the soul and soul. This is not something you can achieve at your age!You don't need to tell me what you have eaten, lest I feel uncomfortable..."

Jia Lan almost burst out laughing, patted her and said, "Tell me why I don't have supernatural powers, where have you been?!"

Gui Liu rolled her eyelids: "Didn't you say that your appetite is bigger than others? Could it be your supernatural power?!"

Jia Lan was silent for a long time: "Your mother is also a supernatural power?!" For a moment, he felt that life was boring.
