The Concubine Wushuang of Red Mansion

Chapter 51
It was Xifeng. This was not the first time Jia Cong saw her, but he was in the mood to appreciate her seriously.

She wears a golden bun with eight treasures and beads on her head, a hairpin with five Chaoyang phoenixes hanging on it, a red gold necklace on a plate around her neck, a pea green palace ribbon around her skirt, a double-balanced rose pendant, and a The gold-streaked butterfly wears a narrow floral red satin jacket, a colorful engraved stone green silver rat jacket on the outside, and an emerald floral crepe skirt underneath.She has a pair of red phoenix triangular eyes, two curved willow-leaf eyebrows. She is slender and has a coquettish physique. Her pink face contains spring power without revealing it, and her lips smell red before she smiles.

The book says it exactly.

"Brother Cong is here. I heard that you invited your sisters to dinner today. You ate anything good and didn't even bother to call me. It can be seen that the good things are going to the sisters."

Wang Xifeng was particularly enthusiastic about Jia Cong, and Jia Cong naturally accepted this kindness. It was impossible for him to make enemies with everyone in the Jia family and embarrass himself from all sides. The so-called distant friendship and close attack. In addition, Jia Lian and his wife had nothing to do with him. Conflict of Interest.

"Second sister-in-law Lian is joking. A guest suddenly came to my place. If my sister-in-law hadn't ordered us to go down for dinner, I would have been in a mess. I don't know what to entertain her."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "Sisters, please go to your place. Sister-in-law Qi said, it's such a cold day and there are some fat and big hares in the kitchen over there. Why don't you make hot pot and eat it? Let me call you sisters." We all eat at your place."

She asked, "Is your aunt's illness getting better?"

"Thank you, old lady, for remembering me. My aunt's condition is much better."

"I heard that the doctor has prescribed a new medicine that uses ginseng. Are you still planning to buy it outside? Someone bring the prescription to me as soon as possible. I will ask Brother Chang to deliver it to you later." Xifeng said.

"Thank you, second sister-in-law!" Jia Cong saluted calmly. Xifeng was extremely surprised by his unfazed attitude.

The old lady called Yuanyang again, "He is going to Dongshan to participate in some game, and it is snowing so heavily. Go and get the Clouded Leopard's cloak for him to wear."

Yuanyang agreed, went to get a piece of clothing, and saw that the gold and green were brilliant, and the blue color was shining, it was really brilliant.

Jia Cong was wondering, and sure enough, the old lady said, "This is made from peacock feathers twisted into threads in the country of Laos. It's called 'bird gold'. Let's wear it for you! Just be careful, there is no such thing now." It’s time for me to do this for you.”

Jia Cong was extremely reluctant to get this piece. He said, "Old lady, this must be very good. I thought, I'd better leave this piece to Brother Bao. There are some less eye-catching ones, like wild duck feathers." Whatever you do, the old lady can give it to me!"

Xifeng burst out laughing, "Old lady, Brother Cong is so shy. He must be thinking that these are for girls."

The old lady couldn't help laughing, "That's all, I said that if he goes to a place like that, give him the best. If that's the case, just give him the wild duck feathers!"

"How did brother Cong know that the old lady owned a piece of wild duck feather? I bet the old lady showed you her furniture list?" Xifeng said with a smile.

"I'm just talking nonsense. Who knows, the old lady really does exist."

The mandarin duck changed into another one and took it out. It was still golden and green. Jia Cong couldn't say he disliked it anymore. He thought of the section "White Snow and Red Plums in the Glazed World" where everyone was wearing colorful cloaks. This must be the popular style. , then took it and said thank you.

This is the one written in the book and later given to Bao Qin.

"The old lady really loves you. This is made of the hair on the wild duck's head. It can protect you from the wind and rain. The old lady loves Brother Bao so much, and she didn't say to wear it for Brother Bao." Jia Cong smiled, After saying a few more words, it was getting late, so the old lady asked Jia Cong to go back first, but Xifeng stopped him, "Brother Cong, wait, I want to go there too, you take me to my room."

Jia Cong had no choice but to wait for her. After she served the old lady into the suite, Jia Cong accompanied her out of the upper room. After passing through the east-west hall, there was a large pink screen wall, where Jia Lian and Xifeng lived.

"Your brother was beaten hard by the master this time for you. He still can't get up. Why don't you go in and take a look!"

Jia Cong smiled, followed her in, and Ping'er came out to greet her. He greeted her with a smile and said, "Master Cong is here to visit our second master?"

"Is the second brother okay?" Jia Cong entered the inner room. Jia Lian was still lying on the bed and couldn't get up. When he saw him, he couldn't help but laugh, "Are you here to see a joke?"

Ping'er moved a stool over and Jia Cong sat beside the bed, "Second brother, I'm going to Dongshan to leave the city. I guess the old lady doesn't trust me to go alone. Although on that day, I will also go with Prince Zhongshun. , but having someone with you always makes the elders feel more at ease."

"Who knows, you can't get out of bed now."

What Jia Cong said was not because the old lady was worried about him going alone.

Since the old lady showed kindness to him, why shouldn't he appreciate it?It doesn't have to be heart-to-heart, it has to be close to each other and maintain each other's face, which is a sign of maturity and stability.

Both Jia Lian and Xifeng were satisfied with Jia Cong's performance but felt that they couldn't think about it. The old lady told him to treat him kindly and she couldn't look down upon such a villain, so the two of them had the same thoughts as Jia Cong. , the more they talk, the more affectionate they become.

"I have to risk my life to accompany you. Fortunately, there are still two or three days left, and my muscles and bones are not injured. I will use more medicine to disperse the congestion early and not affect my walking." Jia Lian leaned against the big chair with his back. The pillow is leaning against the head of the bed.

He is one of the few capable people in the Jia family in "A Dream of Red Mansions", and he is also a person who has a bottom line in doing things. He is born with a peach blossom face and a good appearance. Although he is a promiscuous person, he has a kind heart.

"Don't feel bad for your second brother. You are a little person. Even if you go to the prince's palace, how can the elders rest assured?" Xifeng asked, "I know you are a person with ideas, and your second brother is always with me. You are said to be capable in front of me, but this is no joke. Think about it, everyone has someone to accompany them, but you are the only one who doesn’t. Wouldn’t that make people laugh?”

"The second sister-in-law said so!"

"Also, with your aunt's illness, she definitely won't have time to make you winter clothes. How can you wear the clothes you bought outside? I asked the needleworker to make some clothes for you, and they will be delivered to you tomorrow. You try it out first, and if it doesn’t fit, we’ll change it.”

Xifeng asked two old nuns to send Jia Cong back. Just after entering the black door, Zheng Haoshi stood under Jia She's study and hurriedly came up, "Brother, Uncle Zhen from Dongfu is here, and he also brought Uncle Huang with him." Come, wait for me brother!"

Jia Cong asked the two women to take the clothes to his room, and he entered Jia She's study. Through the curtain, he heard Jia Zhen say, "Isn't this outrageous? This family, young and old, Does it count if he has to take down the horse inside and out?"

The boy standing at the door shouted, "Brother Cong is here!" and opened the curtain.

Jia Cong walked in. Sitting in the front seat was Jia She. There were two chairs next to him. Two people sat facing each other, one on the left and the other on the right. One of them was more arrogant and was wearing silk and satin. He must be Jia Zhen. The other The man is much shabbier and has his head drooped. He is none other than Jia Huang who lives in Dong Hutong.

　The first!
