The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 219 Baoyu Second Spring
Jia's mother sighed for a long time, and when she woke up, she realized that Jia Ke was still kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly said to the little maid next to her, "Yuanyang, quickly help your uncle up."

The little servant girl hurried forward to help Jia Ke up. How could Jia Ke get a little servant girl to help her up? When Jia's mother spoke, he got up.

Then he raised his eyes to look at this little maid, this is the housekeeper next to Jia Mu in the Dream of Red Mansions, a golden mandarin duck with a special status in the whole Jia's mansion, she was wearing a half-new lotus-colored satin jacket and a blue satin vest with pinched teeth , the water green skirt below.The bee has a slender back, a duck egg face, black oily hair, a high nose, and a few slight freckles on both cheeks.Although not very beautiful, but also pretty with cuteness.

Seeing Jia Ke getting up, Mother Jia looked carefully at him and saw that he had come back in a hurry and hadn't removed his armor yet, but he was wearing this treasure elephant unicorn bright armor, but he was somewhat similar to the Rong Guogong back then. It's like seeing Duke Rong Jia Daishan coming back from outside again.

Looking at Jia Ke's appearance, she couldn't help being a little stunned, and she couldn't help thinking of Jia Daishan's appearance every time he came back from the expedition, and tears filled her eyes.

Yuanyang returned to Jia Mu's side again, watching Jia Mu staring at Jia Ke in a daze, and now reminding her: "Old lady, the uncle is already up, what do you want?"

Only then did Mother Jia wake up, she quickly asked Jia Ke to sit beside her, and then began to inquire about her health, asking the bitter cold in the frontier fortress if there was someone waiting around her.

Jia Ke reported good news but not bad news to the old man. He seemed very proud to say: "Now that I am a Jiedu envoy, there is no one in Xuanfu Town who can surpass me. Those officials and merchants in Xuanfu Town, Who dares not to show filial piety to me. Not only are there dozens of servant girls serving me now, but the food and drink are the best. They are all old ladies, and I am afraid they may not be as good as me." Then I saw Mother Jia's disbelief eyes.

"Don't believe me, old lady. I don't say anything else at the border. I only say that my meals are prepared by the imperial chef. There are delicious dishes every day. I still can't remember the names of many dishes." Jia Ke saw Mother Jia didn't believe it, and hurriedly defended like a child.

Jia Mu was confused by what he said, so she asked: "Where did you get the imperial cook at the border, could it be that the emperor rewarded you? But I haven't heard of it?"

Jia Ke said with a smile: "I don't know which nobleman in the palace this imperial cook offended. The whole family was dispatched to the border, and I happened to meet him. So I took him into my pocket. After a while, I brought him back to the capital. Let him cook a good meal to honor the old lady."

When Jia Mu heard that this was the case, she also smiled and said: "You don't know anything, you really think that the imperial chef's cooking is the best in the world. To put it bluntly, there are many cooks in our house who are better than him." .”

When Jia's mother said this, she gave Jia Ke a disdainful look, which meant that she disliked his lack of knowledge.

Jia Ke really didn't believe it this time, and asked with a puzzled face, "What does the old lady say? Isn't the imperial cook the best cook in the world? How can the cook in our house surpass him?"

In Jia Ke's mind, someone who can cook for the emperor is not bad.He also knows the cooks in his own family, how can they compare to the imperial cook in Xuanfu Town.

It's just that Jia Ke didn't expect at all that with his status in Rongguo Mansion before, how could he enjoy the service of those talented chefs. The cooks for him and Aunt Zhou were just ordinary cooks.How can it compare to those famous chefs who cook for Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, and Jia Amnesty's masters.

"The imperial chefs are not all good. The really good imperial chefs have figured out the emperor's taste, and the emperor can't do without them at this moment. There is no reason for them to be distributed. Those who can be distributed are just cooking for some concubines. , there is still some skill, but it is too much to say that the cooks outside are not as good as it is. Besides, the emperor's imperial chef may not cook some dishes. The dishes they cook are just common and common ingredients. Dare to use some strange ingredients, I am really afraid that the emperor will eat it, and feel that if they want to eat it every day, they will hang themselves." Jia Mu also explained to him with a smile.

What Jia Mu said was not a secret, it was just that the whole world coaxed the emperor alone.The emperor actually knew it well, but he just pretended to be confused in order to show that he was not greedy for words.

The two of them were chatting and having fun, when suddenly someone shouted outside: "Master Bao is here." As he spoke, the curtain was opened, and a little boy with a powder-carved jade bracelet came in from outside.I saw his neat sideburns, thick and slender eyebrows, and he was straightforward and cute, revealing a heroic spirit; and his ruddy complexion, flexible and affectionate eyes, and a bit of a girl, seven or eight years old, if not for the curly hair on his head , almost no distinction between men and women.This is Jia Baoyu in the Dream of Red Mansions.

When Jia Ke saw Jia Baoyu, she also sighed a little, no wonder everyone who saw him liked him, no one in the world could stop him just because of his appearance.It's no wonder that so many girls are picking on Jia Baoyu, wanting to be his roommate.It's a pity that it's just a skin bag, but the inside is a straw bag.

Jia Baoyu entered Jiamu's room, and saw a vigorous man sitting next to Jiamu, talking and laughing with Jiamu.He guessed that this was his elder brother, Jia Ke who was an official outside, but he had always hated economic careers, so he couldn't feel any love for this elder brother who was an official.

Because of Jia Ke's presence, Jia Baoyu was a little restrained. He first greeted Jia's mother and then stood aside obediently. Seeing his pitiful appearance, Jia's mother pulled him into her arms and rubbed him carefully.He also said to him: "Don't be restrained, this is your eldest brother. He hugged you when you were just born. It's just that you didn't meet again when you were an official outside. Now that he comes home, you have to be careful." close."

Looking at this cute little boy, Jia Ke went over to touch his head with a smile on his face, then took out a lifelike gold pony from his bosom and handed it to him, saying gently: "My brother is at home, honor grandma The big brother will reward you for your great contribution. From now on, you should be filial to your grandmother, father and mother, and the big brother will give you a real good horse in the future."

Jia Ke found this thing in Arslen Khan's tent, and later took it for himself.When he came back today, he specially brought some small things, and prepared to give some gifts to the little brothers and sisters in the mansion.

Hearing what Jia Ke said, Jia Baoyu gradually lost his restraint, and asked with wide eyes, "Brother, have you seen many horses in the grassland?"

"Of course I've seen the horses on the prairie. When they came, thousands of them rumbled over and frightened people to death." Jia Ke teased Jia Baoyu deliberately.

When Jia Baoyu heard what Jia Ke said, he imagined thousands of horses running past in his mind.She would shrink her neck in fright, and Jia Ke laughed out loud when she saw his cuteness.

Mother Jia held Jia Baoyu in her arms, watching the interaction between Jia Ke and Jia Baoyu, she felt very relieved.Jia Ke is destined to be the pillar of the Jia family, and Jia Baoyu is deliberately pampered by her, so I am afraid that he will not achieve much in economic career.But Jia Baoyu was raised by her after all, and her care for Jia Baoyu even surpassed the sum of Jia Zheng and Jia Amnesty, so she was very concerned about his future.

Seeing that the two brothers are so harmonious now, I feel relieved.If Jia Ke can succeed in the future, it would be good for Jia Baoyu to be a peaceful prince. If Jia Ke fails to succeed and is just a high-ranking minister, Jia Baoyu can also spend his life safely and happily under his protection.

Jia Ke chatted with Jia Mu and Jia Baoyu for a while, then remembered Jia Yingchun that Aunt Zhang had entrusted to him, and asked Jia Mu: "Sister Yingchun was still a villain when I left. I haven't seen her for so many years. I don't know What does it look like, grandma might as well invite my younger sister to let me see, otherwise I won’t know what my younger sister looks like when I go outside.”

Mother Jia didn't take it seriously when she heard what he said. After all, they are sisters and brothers in the family, so there is nothing wrong with seeing them.You are the mandarin duck next to Bianming: "Go and bring Yingchun and Tanchun, let them meet your brother, Xichun is not needed, she is too young."

When Jia Ke heard that Jia Xichun had come to the Rongguo Mansion, she was curious. Jia Ke thought that Jia Xichun was the real mysterious figure in the Rongguo Mansion.Now Jia Ke couldn't figure out who her real father was.

If Jia Xichun's father is Jia Jing, since Jia Xichun came to Rongguo Mansion, he has never set foot in Ningguo Mansion.Even when Jia Jing passed away, he didn't go to mourn him.This is completely unreasonable, especially in ancient feudal society, it is completely disobedient and unfilial.

But Jia Xichun was not punished in any way. It seems that her life experience is really very mysterious.

Yuanyang nodded in agreement, and then went out.After a while, two girls were brought in, the first one, with plump skin and a medium figure, honest and pleasant, Jia Ke saw at a glance that she was somewhat similar to Aunt Zhang when she first entered the mansion, and she did not have any outstanding appearance.Followed by a little girl, she has an oval face and a slender figure, but she is still young, but she can also see her very delicate face, which is completely inherited from Aunt Zhang's beauty.

Yuanyang brought the two girls in, followed by their nurses. After the two little girls came in, they first saluted Jia's mother in a proper manner.Then she looked at Jia Ke, at a loss.

Yuanyang hurriedly introduced to the side: "Girls, this is your eldest brother, the uncle who has been here to be an official. I just came back today, so hurry up and give the uncle a gift."

Only then did Yingchun and Tanchun realize that this was the elder brother who was an official outside, and they bowed to Jia Ke together.

Jia Ke had known for a long time that they would meet today and had brought a lot of small things with her, so she took out two bracelets carved from white jade from her bosom.This is what he found in a chief's tent when he plundered the Tartars.These little things were all collected by Jia Ke, and this time he brought some back, which just came in handy today.

The two little girls took the jade bracelets and loved them very much, but they were still a little cautious, and they didn't dare to put them on their hands immediately, so they had to stuff them in their sleeves and stand quietly aside.

At this time, Yuanyang quickly winked at the little girl next to her, and then the little girl moved two Xiu Duns and put them behind the two girls.Yingchun and Tanchun just sat down.

Jia Ke couldn't help but look at the little girl Yuanyang differently, she really has a lot of insight.He even took care of the up, down, left, and right.No wonder Mother Jia sent out all her maidservants in the end, except the mandarin ducks.He even said that he couldn't even eat without Yuanyang.

Although Jia Ke still seemed a little silent when she saw Yingchun, she was not like Ermu in the Dream of the Red Chamber after all. It seemed that her life was not too bad.As for some silence, after all, being disliked by his father and mother passing away, if he can still maintain a cheerful personality, then he can only be so heartless if he is pierced again.
