May 7, the fourth day of Jia Zhen's death. Under the guidance of Lai Sheng, the chief administrator www.biquge.info of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Huan took Qian Huai to the back garden of Ning Guofu: Jia Zhen's spiritual room in Huifang Garden.

There was a commotion in the garden. Busy. The servants and maids in Ningguo's mansion are all dressed in linen and filial piety. The air was mixed with the smell of bright candles, yellow paper, long incense, and oil lamps. The chanting of Taoist priests doing Dharma and things came from time to time.

When he was about to arrive at the door of the mourning hall, he happened to meet Jia Qiang, the great-grandson of Ning Guofu, to send the guests out. When Jia Qiang saw Jia Huan, her eyes turned red, and she rushed up and punched Jia Huan, scolding: "Good thief, you still dare to come?" ”

In the ninth chapter of the Red Mansion Book, a clear introduction is made to the relationship between Jia Qiang and Jia Zhen: he is a decent great-grandson in the Ning Mansion, his parents died early, and he has lived with Jia Zhen since he was a child, and now he is sixteen years old, and he is more handsome than Jia Rong. The two brothers were the most intimate and often lived together. Fighting cocks and lackeys, enjoying flowers and playing willows.

Jia Qiang knows something about Jia Zhen's death. If it weren't for Jia Huan's ill-intentioned sending spring medicine to the uncle, how could there be such a disaster? The source is here in Jia Huan.

Jia Huan and Jia Qiang chatted a few words outside the ancestral hall of the Jia family a few years ago and knew each other. Seeing Jia Qiang rushing over, she took a step to the side. Qian Huai beside him blocked the road and protected Jia Huan, "Second Master Qiang, if you have something to say, how can you do it to the elders?" ”

Jia Huan's generation is one generation higher than Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiang was wearing a white filial piety dress, and her appearance was three points more handsome than that of Jia Rong, a cream student, and she pointed at Jia Huan with a sad face, and shouted with a sad and angry face: "Phew, he is also worthy of being my elder?" ”

Jia Huan looked at Jia Qiang coldly. This is just a small part of his trip today. In fact, he is not afraid of Jia Qiang, who has already started to mess with women. If he really fights, even if he is six years younger, he may not lose.

But if he made a move, his trip to Ning Guofu today might fail. Who would be afraid of a teenager who can punch with his fist? He had to maintain a cold demeanor in order to maximize the deterrence he designed to kill Jia Zhen.

Jia Qiang stopped Qian Huai, pointed at Jia Huan's face, and scolded with a gun and a stick, "You slaves have been born and raised for generations, and pigs and dogs are not as good as things!" and your second master as an elder. Phew! How did my uncle treat you in the past? You actually sent medicine to him? I forgot to forget the eight things in the dark, the little lady's dog thing..."

Lai Sheng took two servants to follow Jia Huan. But it didn't stop Jia Qiang, but retreated to the side of the road to watch the play. Lai Sheng felt a little happy in his heart.

Jia Qiang opened her mouth to scold Jia Huan, pointing the finger at Jia Huan for Jia Zhen's death, and the servants and guests around her slowed down and looked at the two of them. There are acquaintances, whispering, Jia Huan, Jia Qiang's birth and fame.

Jia Huan interrupted Jia Qiang's words in a cold voice: "Brother Zhen treats me well, 800 taels of silver to buy fifty percent of my brick kiln shares." Do you know what the profit of my brick kiln is in a month? Brother Zhen treated me really well, and the price of the coal supplied to me was increased by 30%. Brother Zhen treats me well, and wants to monopolize the supply of rice and grain in Dongzhuang Town.

Your second master is really good at talking. Come, let's talk about how well Brother Jane treated me in the past? ”

Jia Zhen treated Jia Huan in the past, and the highest reward was only a dozen taels of silver. And he sought to seize the business of Jia Huan and Xianheng Commercial Bank, to say the least, they all started with hundreds of taels of silver.

Jia Huan's words also revealed a lot of inside information. made the audience a little more, and there were exclamations from time to time.

Jia Qiang said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? My uncle is the patriarch of the Jia family, how can he be such a person? I see that you are holding a grudge and deliberately making it up. ”

"I made it up. You go and ask the second master Lai beside you, ask the merchants in Dongzhuang Town, ask the second brother of the chain, ask Feng Ziying, ask Jia Rong, and see if I am making it up again. ”

"You..." When Jia Qiang was about to distinguish again, when he heard the movement, Jia Rong, who had already come out of the spirit room, was desperately glancing at him and hurried over.

Jia Huan was unforgiving, and said, "What are you?" Do you think I'm willing to send tonic medicine to Brother Jane? ”

"--!" Jia Huan's words caused an uproar among the thirty or fifty onlookers at the scene, which exploded a bit violently. The condolences of the guests, the stewards, the servants, the servants, and the children of Jiafu were all shocked.

There are two fierce points today. First, Jia Qiang accused Jia Huan of harming Uncle Zhen by sending medicine. Second, Jia Huan said that he did not send the medicine voluntarily.

"Uncle Huan, Uncle Huan..." Jia Rong was dressed in a white filial piety suit, her face was pale and tired, she walked quickly in front of Jia Huan, and pleaded in a low manner: "Uncle Huan is here." The nephew is clumsy, and he hopes to forgive his sins. Please enter and incense. ”

He is afraid of Jia Huan, but he is also willing to see Jia Huan deflated. But Jia Huan opened his mouth to break the news, and his bluffed soul flew out of the sky. He knew that Jia Huan probably knew about his father and Keqing. Where do you dare to see the excitement again. hurriedly rushed over to stop Jia Huan. As he spoke, he pulled Jia Qiang who was puzzled again.

In the book of Red Mansions, there is such a description of Jia Qiang: This Jia Qiang is both beautiful on the outside and smart on the inside. Jia Qiang already had doubts in her heart at this time, but she also knew that now was not the time to be noisy, so she snorted coldly, took the little servant, and sent the guests away.

Lai Sheng came forward to reprimand: "It's all scattered, scattered." All go and do things. The servants who were watching on the side of the road dispersed one after another. It is inevitable to have to guess in private.

Qian Huai smiled. The third master's mouth is amazing. Still, it sounds like there's an inside story. But he estimated that he wouldn't be able to ask the third master.

Jia Huan's eyes narrowed, and he followed Jia Rong into the mourning hall and offered incense to Jia Zhen.

In fact, Jia Rong didn't stop him, and he wouldn't say more. Breaking the news can explode a few points, of course he is measured. exploded too much and ruined Jia Zhen's reputation, forcing Jia Fu to fight him.

After incense and saluting, Jia Rong said, "Please come and sit next door for a while." He led Jia Huan to sit down in the small room next to the mourning hall. Jia Zhen's little maid Shou'er came over to serve tea. In Tongjia Village that day, he was also present, and his face was a little afraid to retreat.

Jia Rong looked tired, accompanied by caution, and said with a flattering smile: "Uncle Huan, Brother Qiang was raised by my father, and if there is something to offend you, I still want Haihan." He said a word to his brother Jia Qiang.

Jia Huan nodded. He didn't mean to pursue Jia Qiang. A small character is not worth his big effort to design.

In addition, he needs to appease Jia Rong's fragile little heart. Killing Jia Zhen doesn't mean it's over. He still has to get his losses back. This requires Jia Rong's "cooperation".

The character of Jia Qiang has two doubts in the Book of Red Mansions. First, his relationship with Jia Zhen. In the original book of the Red Mansion, it was written: There are many people in Yining Mansion, and those unambitious slaves are capable of slandering their masters, so I don't know what villains criticize and rumor. Jia Zhen thought that it was not very good to hear some rumors, and she had to avoid some suspicions, but now she divided the house and ordered Jia Qiang to move out of Ningfu and go to live by herself.

What suspicion does Jia Zhen avoid? Jia Qiangsheng's handsomeness may be Jia Zhen's prostitution. As for whether it is or not, Jia Huan is not clear now, and he is not interested in figuring it out.

The second suspicion is the relationship between Jia Qiang and Qin Keqing. In the book, Jiao Da scolded: Pick up the ashes and raise the little uncle.

Picking up ashes is undoubtedly that Jia Zhen stole Qin Keqing. Of course, now Dumas can't steal it.

And raising a little uncle, red scholars have different opinions. Among them, Jia Qiang's suspicion is relatively large. Because, he happened to be brothers with Jia Rong, and he was Qin Keqing's brother-in-law.

However, there are also red scholars who believe that Jiao Da has already scolded Qin Keqing in the first sentence, and should not scold her in the second sentence. Moreover, the subject of the first sentence is to scold Jia Zhen, and the second sentence should logically be a person with the same status as Jia Zhen, Qin Keqing obviously does not meet this requirement. You is in line with that.

Also, in the ninth chapter of the original book, Jia Qiang's mental activities. He saw that Qin Keqing's younger brother Qin Zhong was bullied in the Jia family's ethnology, and he was thinking about his relationship with Jia Rong. If he has a hand with Qin Keqing, he will inevitably perform. Qin Zhong is Qin Keqing's younger brother.

And from Jia Huan's current point of view: the behavior of raising a little uncle is unlikely to be Qin Keqing. She had a good relationship with Jia Rong before. In addition, she is a poor girl who has to live in a rich room, how many eyes are staring? What is the difference between raising a brother-in-law and looking for death. She's a very smart woman.

Jia Huan and Jia Rong didn't say a word, Jia Zheng's elder came over with Li Shi'er and informed: "The third master, the eldest master, the second master, and a few elders are waiting for you in the study outside." Please come and visit. ”

Here it comes. The triage of Jia Fu. This is the real test of how he can deal with this hand. Jia Qiang: That's just an appetizer.

Jia Huan nodded calmly, "I know." Brother Rong, you take care of the funeral first. We'll talk more about it later. ”

Jia Rong's heart was lifted suddenly, and she smiled reluctantly, and sent Jia Huan out of the room.

thought in his heart: If Jia Huan went to give the clan elders a severe punishment, or send the official or something, it would be good if he couldn't come back, so he obeyed his wishes.

…

The scale of the mansion of Ningguo Mansion is as large as that of Rongguo Mansion. Jia Huan started from the back garden, passed through the cloister and courtyard, and went to the academy located south of the main entrance.

Along the way, you can vaguely feel the chaos of Ning Guofu, bloated and overcrowded. You can also get a glimpse of the imminent decline of Ning Guofu. Jia Rong's ability is obviously insufficient.

Arrived at the outer study. In the exquisite small courtyard, the verandah, garden, and gate wall are extremely exquisite. At this time, there were already a bunch of small guys waiting. There are Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, and Jia Lian.

Jia Huan also saw Jia Dairu's grandson, Jia Rui. It's strange in my heart, and it's abrupt. In the original book, in the winter of the tenth year of the Red Mansion, Qin Keqing fell ill, and Sister Feng went to see her. As a result, I met Jia Rui. Jia Rui wanted to flirt with Sister Feng, but was poisoned by Sister Wang Feng and set up a lovesick bureau, and he died.

People like Jia Rui die when they die. Jia Huan didn't sympathize with his thoughts. However, now that Jia Zhen is dead, Qin Keqing is not dead. I'm afraid this kid will have to live a few more years. Of course, if he wants to die, it is estimated that he will have to die for Sister Feng.

Li Shier and Qian Huai stayed under the eaves. Jia Huan thought and entered the study.

Seeing Jia Huan come in, Jia Zheng scolded with his head covered his face: "Evil animal! (To be continued.) )
