The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 423 The leader of the alliance 'this is very reasonable' plus more [below]

[There is another update before 12 o'clock, with [-] words for two consecutive days, and the extra [-] words are just an update for the leader. 】

After a lively lunch in the garden, the old lady wanted to go back to take a nap, and everyone naturally dispersed.

Not to mention how others are.

But Xue Baochai was with his mother, because he was a little absent-minded along the way, and when he arrived at the hut in Qingtang, he found that his mother was also a little out of mind.

Xue Baochai judged others by herself, only as a mother, she also regretted that she missed the marriage with the Jiao family at the beginning, so she cheered up and comforted her: "Mom, don't think too much, although brother Jiao won a big victory this time, he is getting better and better." Fa is deeply caught in the turmoil of the court, our family cannot withstand such storms now, it is better to seek safety."

Having said that, the regret in my heart cannot be erased.

It’s just that the future is promising, and what’s even more touching is that Jiao Shun not only does not reject women’s participation in politics, but also actively asks women for help—but any woman who is conceited, talented, and more ambitious than men, who would not imagine that she can be like a woman? Do men also compete in the literary world and fight in court?

Of course, if she was really intriguing about these things all day long, Baochai would probably get tired of it before long.

But hasn't she tasted it yet?

But she said that Aunt Xue was taken aback when she heard her daughter's reassurance, and then she became a little embarrassed, because what she was thinking just now was not the premature marriage, but because she heard the news of Jiao Shun's promotion, and unconsciously Recalling the 'misunderstanding' that day.

In fact, these days, she always thinks of the scene at that time from time to time.

At first, it was mostly shame and fear, mixed with some inexplicable joy, but gradually, a different kind of stimulation lingered in my heart, and the more shame and fear, the more it penetrated into the bone marrow.

Aunt Xue also knew that she shouldn't be like this, so she kept trying to resist and get rid of it.

However, every night when I can't sleep alone, I can't help it...

Of course, Aunt Xue never dared to let her daughter know about all this, so she hurriedly followed her words and said with a smile: "I was just distracted for a while, but I provoked you to say such things—after the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, you should be with me." Baoyu is engaged, how can we still regret the marriage at this juncture?"

The mother and daughter chatted a few more homely words, Baochai was worried about Baoyu getting into trouble at night, and planned to discuss a countermeasure with Wang Xifeng in advance, so she told her mother to take a good rest, and then left the hut in Qingtang.

After Baochai left, Aunt Xue was relieved.

She sat alone in the room in a daze for a long time, but finally she couldn't suppress the throbbing in her heart, and took out the wooden carving from the box to play with it.

But at this moment, what came to her mind was no longer the voice and smile of her deceased husband.

Obviously she was playing with the woodcarving, but subconsciously, she always felt that her catkins were being molested by a pair of big hands. Those hands were strong and tightly gripped. The heart of the person who was rubbing was pounding, and her cheeks were flushed and hot.

knock knock knock
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked lightly on the door,
Although the movement was small, it sounded like thunder in Aunt Xue's ears. The gourd-like body trembled violently, almost throwing the wooden sculpture in her hand.

She managed to stabilize her emotions, and asked in a trembling voice, "What's the matter?!"

"Mrs."

I heard the servant girl report outside the door: "My aunt, please go over and talk."

"I know, I know."

Aunt Xue suppressed her thumping heart, got up from the couch, put the wood carvings away reluctantly, then cooled herself down with a wet towel, and covered her cheeks with rouge and gouache before leaving for the king's house. In the lady's room.

When she reached the main room, she tried to push the door of the inner room, but it was locked as expected.

"Sister, open the door."

Aunt Xue called out, and the door was half opened in a short while, but no one could be seen from the outside.

Aunt Xue was not surprised either, she slipped into the door alone, and the door behind her was closed and locked again, but it turned out that Mrs. Wang had been hiding behind the door just now.

As for why to hide...

"elder sister."

Aunt Xue persuaded helplessly: "Now that it's getting colder today, you should at least add two more clothes, so as not to catch the wind and cold."

"What about the cold?"

Mrs. Wang's face was calm, but her tone was self-defeating: "As I am now, not to mention that I have a cold, even if I stay here until the oil is exhausted, who will care?"

"What are you talking about, sister?"

Aunt Xue hurriedly said, "Don't talk about Baoyu and Yuanchun. Could it be that Baochai and I are hypocritical to you?"

"That was not what I meant."

Mrs. Wang smiled wryly and shook her head: "It's really... Sigh! I thought that the Jiao family would move out in the spring of next year at the latest, and there should be no more accidents. Who would have thought that Jiao Shun would be promoted to the sacrificial wine for no reason! Your brother-in-law seems to be open-minded, but in fact he has the smallest mind, how can he accept that a boy from a slave background easily climbed onto his head? I'm afraid he will dislike Jiao Shun even more from now on, and will redouble his anger on me."

Even though she was hurt by Jia Zheng many times, and she kept saying that she had nothing to do with it, but if she really didn't care, how could she deliberately maintain such an open state, even to the point of masochistic?
…………

"Cough, cough..."

The magnanimous Mrs. Wang hadn't caught the cold yet, but Jia Zheng's condition relapsed again.

The reason was just as Mrs. Wang had expected. Due to the old lady's persuasion, he was already prepared to endure it for a while, but who would have thought that Jiao Shun would jump on his head all of a sudden!
Jia Zheng couldn't help regretting it.

If I knew this earlier, I should have been promoted to an official before reporting illness!
Fortunately, after he made great contributions to the founding of the country, he worked hard in the Ministry of Industry for more than [-] years, but he was ridden on the head by a yellow-mouthed child who was born as a domestic slave!
The most difficult thing for him to accept was Jiao Shun's new official position.

Liquor!

Although it is not the sacrificial wine of Guozijian, but the sacrificial wine of engineering, the gold content is still to be discussed, but this is the first sacrificial wine after the establishment of the engineering college, which itself has special significance. Even if engineering does not develop smoothly in the future, It will definitely be recorded in the history books.

That would be a name left in history!
Ever since he lost his worldly desires, Jia Zheng has paid more and more attention to fame. Otherwise, he would not still be sick at home until now, and he would not have been holding on to that unwarranted scandal.

But this opportunity to make a name in history fell to Jiao Shun!

Ever since he heard the news, Jia Zheng had imagined more than once: If he hadn't complained of being sick, but had successfully become the doctor in charge, with his familiarity and enthusiasm for the New Deal, coupled with his daughter's care in the palace, Pillow wind, who is now also serving as an engineering student, could it be me?
And if he had done the engineering sacrifice wine, he would definitely not be full of troubles like now, and he would not be in the same situation as the courtiers and Chinese ministers...

When the time comes, people will carry people in flower sedan chairs, and the wine offered by Gongxue University may not be any worse than the offered wine offered by Guozijian!
Unfortunately……

It's too late to say anything now.

Hey~
What a wrong step!
But when did I ever miss anything?
It's all Wang's fault!
If she hadn't been ignorant at the beginning and spread the family scandal, how could she claim to be sick and miss her bright future?
And now she is not clear with Jiao Shun...

Although there is no evidence for this matter until now, it is all Jia Zheng's speculation, but does "unnecessary" have to be false? !

Anyway, the more Jia Zheng thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more serious he became, and couldn't help but sweep all the official kiln tea sets on the table to the ground with one sleeve.

at the same time.

Outside, in the corridor of the West Wing, Aunt Zhao had just led the maids out when she heard a crackling sound in the main room. She shrank her neck in fright, and then heard Jia Zheng coughing violently in the room.

Aunt Zhao hesitated again and again, but she gave up the idea of ​​taking advantage of the opportunity to be courteous. Jia Zheng has long since lost his heart to pity flowers and cherish jade.

Compared with it, the newly released Lord Jijiu deserves more attention.

So Aunt Zhao pretended she didn't hear anything, and quietly led her maid to Qiushuangzhai.

After seeing her daughter, she couldn't wait to back away from the left and right sides, and dragged Tanchun to ask if Jiao Shun's promotion to the official was true, and whether this Laoshizi sacrificial wine had a bright future like the legend.

After getting an affirmative answer, Aunt Zhao was even more delighted. If Brother Lian Daohuan is not good at studying in the future, maybe he can follow Jiao Shun's path.

Then he planned to ask Jiao Shun to come out at night to express his heart.

Seeing that Aunt Zhao changed her attitude of criticizing Jiao Shun the day before yesterday, Jia Tanchun felt ashamed to flatter her, but when she thought of her mother's meeting with Jiao Shun at night, her heart couldn't stop beating wildly. .

When she read the biographies of those historical figures, she often wished she could travel through time and space, and listen to the twists and turns, twists and turns, and twists and turns told by the parties face to face.

Now, this fantasy has the possibility to come true!
After hesitating again and again, Tanchun still couldn't restrain the throbbing in his heart, and said that he also had some things, and wanted to ask Jiao Shun face to face.

"Are you going too?"

Aunt Zhao looked her daughter up and down suspiciously when she heard the words, she was dull in other things, but she was quite proficient in the way of men and women, she immediately saw a change in her daughter's mind, couldn't help but hinted The mother and daughter join hands, and Jiao Shunshi will surely lose his taste.

In the end, disgusted by her shameless attitude, Tanchun regretted it instead, and hurriedly said that in order to prepare for her birthday, there were many people in the garden in the past two days, so it's better not to take risks for now.

After that, no matter how Aunt Zhao persuaded her, she would never let go.

…………

Go back and talk about Aunt Xue.

She managed to persuade Mrs. Wang to relax, went back to her room and was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help taking out the wood carving, but she didn't know if it was because the critical moment was interrupted, and her emotions couldn't reach it. Point.

Aunt Xue tried for a long time, but when she was about to give up, she suddenly thought that if she had promised her daughter to the Jiao family, wouldn't Jiao Shun be hers...

She couldn't help shivering, almost suffocating in embarrassment, and her cheeks became red and hot at a speed visible to the naked eye.
