Jia Huan, Jia Lian, Jia Lan, and Jia Cong entered the inner house of Jiafu from the hanging flower gate on the middle road. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

There was a rumor inside. Lin Zhixiao, the housekeeper in Jiafu, took four mothers-in-law and four maids on the side of the road, knelt down and saluted, and said, "Congratulations to the third master for returning home." ”

Jia Lian glanced at Jia Huan with a smile, today the house has done enough etiquette and face. Lin Zhixiao's family is the housekeeper in Jiafu, and she can say a few words when Baoyu makes mistakes. When I see him on weekdays, I just salute.

Jia Huan smiled and nodded, "Get up." Aunt Lin, please lead the way. ”

Lin Zhixiao's personality is taciturn, and her husband Lin Zhixiao is called deaf and dumb by the people in the house, smiled, got up and took Jia Huan to Jia's mother's upper room on Jiafu West Road.

…

…

Jia's mother went to the room on Jiafu West Road, and in the Ming Hall of the main room, chuckles sounded from time to time. It is estimated that it will take a while, Sister Feng is amusing and laughing. Of course, it's a topic that has nothing to do with Jia Huan. She's not stupid.

At this time, a little maid at the door ran in, "The third master is here." Then, the big girl in the courtyard passed to the steps, the eaves, and then to the mandarin duck. The mandarin duck replied: "Old ancestor, the third master is here. ”

Jia Mu hummed, paused her crutches, looked at the door, and waited for Jia Huan to come in, thinking about what attitude she should have and how to talk to Jia Huan.

Wang Xifeng stopped stirring up the topic, and picked up the teacup with a smile and drank tea. Ping'er just changed the warm tea for her. Thinking in his heart, how would he not lose face and give in to Jia Huan in public.

Everyone in the hall looked at the door expectantly. Calculating the time, the third master has been away from the house for almost two years. It's just, it's a little weird. The third master came so fast.

Jia Yu chuckled and drank tea. Here it comes. He really wants to see how his mother and brother-in-law complete this scene?

Mrs. Wang's eyes flashed, and her face was expressionless. She could roughly guess the situation.

The mandarin duck replied to Jia's mother, and waited at the door of the Ming Hall, and after a while, he saw Jia Huan, Jia Lian, Jia Lan, and Jia Cong walking into the courtyard under the leadership of Lin Zhixiao, and a smile unconsciously escaped from the corner of his mouth, "Congratulations to the third master for returning home." In her heart, she hoped that the third master would be lifted.

Jia Huan stopped, looked at the tall, fair-skinned and pretty Golden Mandarin Duck, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Sister Mandarin Duck." Long time no see! ”

He has always admired mandarin ducks in his heart. This is a girl with a beautiful heart and an impartial position. But Mandarin Duck is Jia's mother's personal secretary and the most loyal. Therefore, his relationship and position with Mandarin Duck have always changed. Until now, it was similar to an ordinary friend.

I said this as if I was looking forward to meeting. The mandarin duck couldn't help but chuckle, his eyes were bent like crescent moons, and he opened the curtain to let Jia Huan in.

Jia Lian followed behind Jia Huan and said with a smile: "Don't you dare to let my sister open the curtain for me." Sister please. "Jia Huan's treatment, he can't enjoy it.

He is actually older than Mandarin Duck. But the mandarin duck is Jia's mother's eldest maid. Jia Mu's affairs have to be mentioned by her. It's right to call my sister.

The mandarin duck smiled, "Second Master Lian is polite to me." As he spoke, he asked the little maid next to him to open the door curtain, and let Jia Lian, Jia Lan, and Jia Cong go first, and then went in with Lin Zhixiao's family.

…

…

Jia Huan calmly and calmly walked into the Ming Hall, and in an instant, the eyes of dozens of people fell on him, and then an uproar and noisy sound sounded. Except for Jia Huan's elders, everyone stood up and saluted Jia Huan first, "Congratulations to the third master." ”

Because of the seniority and the distance of the relationship, everyone's name is different. The companions, housekeepers, housekeepers, servants, and maids of Jiafu and Ningguo Mansion are called the third masters.

You Shi, Peifeng, and Kailuan of Dongfu shouted Brother Huan. Qin Keqing is called Uncle Huan. Li Kun, Daiyu, Baochai, Shi Xiangyun, and Yingchun are all shouting ring brothers. Xichun shouted the third brother of Huan.

Baoyu's mouth moved, he didn't make a sound at all, and he didn't salute, but no one paid attention to his small movements.

And Jia Tanchun, the third girl who was wearing a pink gown, with handsome eyebrows and beautiful eyes, stood still. She is Jia Huan's own sister, the same father and mother. Naturally, there is no need to salute your brother first.

Tanchun smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking at the scene in front of him, his heart was infinitely emotional, and his eyes were a little red. Her brother is back! She didn't need to be cautious in the mansion anymore. Her situation will be turned upside down.

Qingwen and Ruyi behind Tanchun were both excited and blushing slightly. Because, Jia Huan is enjoying the "treatment" of Jia Yu at the moment. Obviously, this is the recognition of the status of the third master by the people of Jiafu.

Mother Jia, Jia Yu, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and Aunt Xue are all sitting differently. Wang Xifeng stood up, but of course she wouldn't salute with everyone. Sister Feng is a very proud person.

Several aunts and others were originally standing, they belonged to the elders, and they did not take the initiative to salute Jia Huan. Aunt Zhao, who was standing behind Mrs. Wang, wanted to laugh, but she almost cried. At this time, it is the time when the bitterness is exhausted. Half a meter in front of her, Mrs. Wang's companion Zhou Ruijia had already bent down humbly and saluted Jia Huan, forming a stark contrast.

Jia Huan returned the salute, "I've seen all sisters-in-law, sisters, and sisters." "Second Brother Bao naturally ignored him. According to logic, Jia Baoyu was going to meet him outside the second gate. It's just that the big face treasure has always been a "good man" mixed in the rouge pile.

After Jia Huan finished speaking, he walked steadily to the hall. Steady steps, calm bearing. Wearing a black square scarf, a white straight jacket, and cloth shoes, he has a calm temperament.

Jia Huan faced Jia Mu.

In fact, the mandarin duck stood at the door today, which made him understand Jia's mother's attitude towards him at this time. As far as Jia's mother is concerned, a few months ago, she shouted that Jia Zheng would beat him, and now she sent the big secretary to the door to meet him. It's a bit of a spit on your own and slap yourself in the face.

But it feels normal to think about it. Does Jia Mu still want to scold Jia Zheng and beat him again? He's not the little boy who is nothing!

He had estimated before: Xiucai's fame was enough for him to protect himself in Jiafu. And fame can allow him to gain some of the dominance in Jiafu. What he wants is to return to Jiafu with this crushing attitude, settle grievances, and then leave.

Jia Mu is wearing a light golden dress today, wearing a phoenix hairpin, gold forehead, slightly chubby, and a rich and noble atmosphere. Sitting on a pineapple wooden chair, waiting for Jia Huan's movements. Then decide what she does, how she speaks. has lived for so many years, this kind of scene, she is stable!

Jia Huan didn't know what Jia's mother thought, and according to his own rhythm, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said loudly: "My grandson will go home today and say hello to my grandmother and mother." ”

Jia Mu suddenly laughed on her face, nodded, and said with emotion: "Good, good, good." Get up! "She's back with a round face.

Jia Huan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. I'll go!

The back house of Jiafu is full of a group of house fighting masters. The level of technology is very high. For example: Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, Wang Xifeng. It's all good hands. According to the etiquette law, he didn't return home for two years, and after he came back, he really wanted to kowtow to Jia's mother, Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang's direct elders.

He was outside just now, and estimated that Jia Huan would not settle this account with him, so he avoided kowtowing. But Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang are here, he is guarding against them, and he can't give them the excuse to attack. The more beautiful it is, the more cautious it is. How many people are capsized in the gutter.

But looking at the current situation, Jia's mother seems to have misunderstood that he wants to reconcile with Jiafu. In this regard, Jia Huan actually wanted to say: Old lady, you think too much.

He came back to settle accounts. After settling the accounts, settling the grievances, waving his sleeves, and not taking away a single cloud. Of course, you have to take Qingwen and Ruyi with you.

As for reconciliation or anything, he didn't care. He didn't plan to hang out with his pig teammates in Jiafu.

Jia Huan got up.

Jia Mu looked at him with emotion and said, "Brother is a capable person, and if you win the move, everyone in the family is happy for you." Before, the house can't live in your place. But your surname is Jia after all. ”

Jia Huan vomited in his heart and said: My meow is still surnamed Fu!

Jia Mu talked about the previous suppression, design and other things, understated it, and showed extremely high language skills. The advantage of the elder is here, as long as he apologizes, he, as a junior, should really write off on the bright side, and he can't take it out again.

But what you think in your heart is another matter.

Jia Mu continued: "Since ancient times, there have been clouds, and everything is prosperous. Brother Huan'er, since you have returned to the house, I will arrange the use and treatment in the house. I won't treat you badly. You are the hope of my Jia Mansion. However, grandmother has one thing to ask you, Baoyu is a good boy, his body is relatively weak, you don't bother you with his little things. ”

The corners of Jia Huan's mouth twitched. Jia Mu's set of words, relying on the old and selling the old, give full play to the advantages of the elders. If he was really a child, maybe he would be fooled around and continue to work for Jiafu. Unfortunately, he is not.

However, when he returned to Jiafu, he had no plans to find trouble with Baoyu. The previous grievances between him and the big-faced treasure have been settled with Jia Zheng's Baoyu who can't get off the ground for a month. Of course, he still despises and dislikes Baoyu in his heart.

Immediately, Jia Huan replied cleanly: "Brother and brother." "Baoyu doesn't come to provoke him, and he has no interest in going to Baoyu's trouble.

Jia Mu nodded with satisfaction and waved her hand: "Mandarin duck, take out the gift list of my congratulatory gift to Brother Huan'er." ”

The mandarin duck had a smile on her face, and she took the gift list from her sleeve, which she had already carried with her.

Jia Mu took advantage of the gap and sighed to Jia Huan: "Brother is going to do big things, and the morning and dusk are avoided." When you have a gap, come and see me, an old woman. She knew what Jia Huan didn't like, so she simply excused herself.

Jia Huan was not polite, and said straightforwardly: "Old lady Xie! "He now has the confidence and capital to be upright and straightforward.

The mandarin duck took out the gift list, waited for Jia Huan to finish speaking, and read: "The ancestor He Huan is the third master." There are: a set of pen, ink and paper inkstones produced in Huizhou, four ingots of purple gold pen ingots, two brocades of autumn fragrant money python, two python embroidery piles, two glass bowls, a set of tea sets in the official kiln, and a pair of chicken bowl cups in the kiln. ”

Every time the mandarin duck recited a congratulatory gift, almost everyone in the hall let out an exclamation. It's not that the people of Jiafu have shallow eyelids, it's that the congratulatory gift is really heavy.

Huizhou's Hui ink, rice paper, Zihao pen, Hui inkstone, this is a luxury in the cultural category. It's worth a lot of money to buy a set. The next Zijin Ruyi is lighter, but it is a good mouth: the pen (must) ingot (set) Ruyi. Four ingots of gold are worth about 200 taels of silver.

Autumn fragrant color money python brocade and python embroidery pile are all exquisite satin produced in the south of the Yangtze River, which is extremely popular among the nobles of Beijing.

And the next glass bowls, official kilns, and kilns are all very valuable. Glass bowls are used for display as decorations. The tea set fired in the official kiln is unusually expensive. The kilns fired during the Ming Dynasty were more valuable. "Yuzhang Tao Zhi" records: Cheng kiln has a chicken bowl cup, which is the most wine vessel. Precious anomalies. Thousands of taels of silver may not be able to buy it.

In short, Jia's mother gave Jia Huan a heavy gift. The value is about 5,000 taels of silver. It's just that Jiafu is a prince's house, and the congratulatory gift will not be directly taken out of silver, but the porcelain, which is an antique and luxury.

Wang Xifeng sighed twice in his heart. A pair of chicken bowls in the kiln, the old lady made a bloody investment to win over Brother Huan.

Jia Huan smiled, but was disrespectful, and said, "Thank you grandmother for your gift!" "5,000 taels of silver is converted into 5 million yuan. This is just a congratulatory gift! Jia Mu is really rich, she is really a hero.

Jia Huan wants to say that he is not touched, then he is too pretending-forced. can think about it, if he stays in Jia's mansion, is admitted to the Jinshi, and becomes an official, how much congratulatory (silver) gifts (sons) will Jia's mother have to give him?

But to say that he was knocked unconscious, that would not be the case. His willpower is not so weak. At this time, he still remained calm and rational, and understood Jia Mu's intentions.

In this congratulatory gift, Jia Huan was keenly aware that Jia's mother did not have the intention of assigning the power of Jiafu to him, and all she gave was floating profits. In other words, the company Jia Fu now does not have his shares.

Jia's mother probably wanted to keep him in Jiafu, let him enjoy the supply of Jiafu without interfering in the power operation of Jiafu, and then until he became an official and entered the official career. When she was alive, Jiafu was still her Jiafu.

Jia Huan felt a little emotional: So, this is Jia's mother!

Many people say that Jia Mu is a wise old lady. Jia Huan does not deny this. Look at the thirty-third chapter of the original book of Red Mansions, because Baoyu was beaten, Jia's mother scolded Jia Zheng, every sentence was like a knife, and Jia Zheng knelt down. The demeanor of a very powerful lady.

Looking back at her tactics in Jiafu: she has been raised and taught the inner house to be managed by Mrs. Wang, however, she is still the supreme ruler of Jiafu. Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng and others have to revolve around her every day. This kind of conspiracy and means are not clever and are false.

House fighting skills, full value.

However, Jia Huan has one thing he thinks. First of all, Jia Mu's wisdom and scheming are not up to the level of politicians and politicians. Politicians among men do not need to be exemplified. Wu Zetian, who is called the emperor, is a leader in this industry. Miyue in the popular Miyue biography some time ago is also counted. My filial piety Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty can be counted as one.

Jia Mu can't reach this level.

Secondly, Jia Mu did not have much foresight. In the heyday of the imperial examination, Jia Jing of Jiafu from Ningguo Mansion was admitted to Jinshi, and after Jia Zhu was selected as Xiucai, there was no scholar. It wasn't until many years later that Jia Lanzhong, who was carefully cultivated by Li Kun. Mother Jia didn't even train the scholars of Jiafu.

This is rather short-sighted behavior. Even if, as Jia Yu said, what books should people like us read? However, there are not many officials in Jiafu, right? There is no obvious successor. There are so many children of the Jia family in the twelve rooms of the entire Jia family, can't they cultivate talents?

Again, after Qin Keqing's death, he gave Wang Xifeng a dream and asked Wang Xifeng to buy sacrificial fields and seek a way out. Even Jia Tanchun could send out a sigh when he searched the Grand View Garden: The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and foresees the decline of the Jia family. Why didn't Jia Mu seek a way out?

This kind of behavior of not having the foresight to plan an enterprising path for the family, and not thinking of retreating to preserve the possibility of the family's comeback, is really incredible. Jia Mu, the supreme ruler of the Jia family, is unqualified.

Jia Mu is the overlord in the house fighting industry, and her skills are full of value, but if you look at it, she is just a noble old lady who is more shrewd, smart, and likes pleasure than ordinary people. The field of view and pattern are very small.

Jia Huan laughed sarcastically in his heart.

Where did Jia's mother know Jia Huan's thoughts, a smile appeared on her face, and when she saw Jia Huan receiving the gift list handed over by the mandarin duck, she said with a smile: "Brother Huan, ask your mother what congratulatory gifts she has prepared for you." ”

Jia Huan saluted Mrs. Wang according to his words, "My son has seen his mother. "His head was double-stumped. The scene is the largest in Jiamu. He didn't have to knock another lady Wang.

Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Huan and snorted coldly. (To be continued.) )
