The filial son of the Red Mansion

Jia Rong followed behind and saw that the person lying on the ground was Xiangyun, the eldest daughter of the Shi family.

Xiangyun was younger than Daiyu, but she had the most open-minded smile on her face. She waved her little hand and said, "Nothing, nothing. I'll get a hoe and bury it tomorrow."

buried?

Bury who?

Jia Rong felt that his ability to understand was getting worse and worse. He saw Xiangyun and a little girl walking around the tree, and when Daiyu and others came under the tree, Xiangyun suddenly jumped up and shook the branch above her head, accompanied by a cry, and snowflakes fell on everyone's heads.

The sounds of laughter, chasing, and begging for mercy echoed throughout Huifang Garden.

In the midst of the excitement, Jia Rong had already returned to Tianxiang Tower, where Wang Xifeng was pulling his ears. He naturally fought back, firmly grasping one of Wang Xifeng's strengths.

"Let go, the girls are coming back!"

"The maids are outside. If they see me being pulled by the ears, I will lose my manliness. Let them go first!"

"You also know that the maids are outside? Don't let me know that you are planning to take advantage of Bao girl, or I will cut your hair."

Chapter 59: Guard Alternate, Women's Mentality

You are not allowed to have any ideas about Baochai?

So does that mean that you can target other people?

Jia Rong blinked and felt bored again.

The rest are just a bunch of little girls, what ideas can they come up with? Not to mention that although Yingchun and Tanchun are several generations apart, they both have the same surname Jia. Xiangyun is very cute, but unfortunately she is younger than Daiyu.

Wang Xifeng is really something. She still shows her jealousy even now.

Today was not without gain. At least the first meeting with Baochai was quite natural, which laid a foundation. With the title of nephew, there was no need to be too cautious when meeting again in the future.

As I was thinking this, the girls came in soon.

Jia Rong and Wang Xifeng also distanced themselves from each other, but it was necessary to avoid suspicion. However, You Shi went back on the pretext of something, leaving only Qin Keqing and Li Wan to bring the girls in.

Jia Rong didn't pay any attention to Baochai afterwards.

Firstly, Baochai is older and has reached the age where men and women need to avoid suspicion.

Secondly, there are two tasks for Lin Daiyu in his list.

Jia Rong naturally talked more with the young Daiyu. He felt a little pity for Daiyu, knowing that she was weak and sickly and sensitive. Because of the system's tasks, he would ask about Daiyu's health and send her snacks and hot milk tea, and ask her about her illness.

It can be said that concern is written all over his face.

He didn't have any evil intentions towards Daiyu, who was so young.

Wang Xifeng, Qin Keqing, Li Wan and others all looked at them sideways. They didn't have any other thoughts, they just felt that Rong Ge'er was treated differently.

Xue Baochai and Tanchun were joking on the side. "Rong'er only has her as his aunt in his eyes, as if we are more distant relatives."

Lin Daiyu did not say anything back, but she remembered this different experience and felt even warmer in her heart. She felt that this nephew from the East Palace was even more approachable, and even Qin Keqing, who was standing next to her, looked much closer to her. After being teased by Baochai and Tanchun, she went straight to sit next to Keqing.

Jia Rong did not stay in Tianxiang Tower for long. He expressed his gratitude briefly and then bowed and left.

"Is your wife feeling unwell?"

Not long after, he returned to the inner courtyard of the compound.

When Yindie heard the question, she naturally couldn't say that it was because he and Xiaorong's grandmother made too much noise last night and kept her awake. She just replied, "I don't know why, Madam has been feeling down these days. Today, she was outside and caught some wind, so she couldn't stay here and came back to lie down."

Jia Rong thought for a moment and said, "I'll go in and take a look."

Yindie hesitated for a moment, then turned back to her room to report. Youshi was in a more complicated mood at this time. She was stunned for a long time, then crawled over and nodded, saying, "Let Ronger come in."

She was sitting on the kang when she saw Jia Rong, and she began to feel strange again.

"Is Rong'er okay?"

Although Jia Rong had a thousand suspicions in his heart, his face showed no sign of abnormality. He replied, "I heard from Sister Yindie that the Madam was not feeling well, so I came in to see her. Is it serious?"

Yu shook her head.

"I'm just tired."

When she saw Jia Rong approaching, even though Jia Rong had done nothing, she felt uneasy. She said hurriedly, "Don't worry, Rong'er. I'll be fine after two days of rest."

"I'd better ask a few doctors to check my pulse so that I can have a better idea of ​​what's going on."

"Yeah! That's... okay."

When Youshi heard the gentle and caring voice, she felt overwhelmed with self-blame.

Why did I think of him as such a bad guy?

As Youshi watched Jia Rong leave, she could no longer stop sighing.

Rong'er is filial, but I was just imagining things and misunderstood her. Why do I feel so strange?

In the afternoon, Doctor Wang came over and diagnosed that the patient was overly worried and depressed.

Jia Rong was also stunned. He did not expect this result.

Is it really just because Jia Zhen is dead that she is worried about her future situation in the mansion?

After sending Doctor Wang away, he went to Youshi to comfort her. "Don't worry, Madam. My son and I are also filial. From now on, my son and I will serve you well."

Yu's eyes gleamed for a few times, and she forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry to have made Rong'er worry."

"It is my duty. Madam, please take a good rest. If you have anything to do, just tell my son and my wife."

Yu Shi stared at Rong'er's sincere expression, her eyes trembling, and she said "OK" after a long time. After Jia Rong left, she was still standing there, laughing, smiling bitterly, helpless, and melancholy.

But Qin Keqing sent away Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Daiyu, Baochai, Tanchun and others, and when she returned to her room, she stared blankly at the three wintersweet branches stuck in the vase on the kang.

The small waxy yellow flowers are the most luxuriant, the light red ones are the most brilliant, and the pure white ones are the purest. There are three branches, each with a different color.

Jia Rong suddenly came out from behind, put his arms around her waist and abdomen, and his gentle voice penetrated into her ears.

"The yellow color is still suitable for our grandmother. It is not only bright, but also pure and elegant."

Qin Keqing turned around and smiled angrily.

"How many people have you said this to?"

The yellow plum blossoms in the snow are also plum blossoms, and a cluster of cold fragrance comes into the curtains. It is as pure as a flower, and it chews the golden stems to offer the precious fetus.

In the following days, the girls from the West Mansion also came to Ningguo Mansion once or twice. During the New Year, although Ningguo Mansion regained some of its liveliness, everything was still kept simple, and nothing was celebrated in a grand manner.

On the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, Jia Jing was taken back to Ningguo Mansion, and the Jia family worshipped their ancestors in the ancestral hall. After the first day of the new year, Mrs. Wang and Feng Jie invited them to a New Year's banquet. On the 11th day, Jia She invited Jia's mother to a banquet; on the 12th day, Jia Rong invited Jia's mother to a banquet.

After that, it was the Lantern Festival, and ancestor worship. On the 17th day of the first lunar month, Aunt Xue entertained Grandmother Jia.

Wang Xifeng also brought news, confirming that Jia Rong's name had been included in the list of reserve guards for the Dragon Guards, and that he would take part in the review examination at the end of March.

In Lixiang Courtyard, everyone was stunned for a moment, then went to congratulate Lady Jia.

Although Jia's mother didn't believe Jia Rong could pass the examination, she looked happy and called Qin Keqing to sit next to her. She said with a smile: "Our family is finally going to have an ambitious boy. This blessing is all due to you. Today's wine should be toasted to our brother Rong's wife."

Xing was still mumbling in disbelief, but suddenly she felt the cold light in Grandmother Jia's eyes and had to stop. She said angrily, "The old ancestor is absolutely right."

There is never a dull moment where Wang Xifeng is. Aunt Xue, who sits at the top of the table, is also a smart and kind person. The aunt and niece sing in unison and keep the atmosphere going.

After Grandmother Jia made the final decision on the matter, others, influenced by Wang Xifeng and Aunt Xue, also raised their glasses, one to toast Grandmother Jia, another to Keqing, and yet another to Youshi.

Li Wan, who usually didn't ask about anything, actually pulled Youshi to drink two more cups.

Li Wan was still expressing her envy, but Youshi was speechless. Even Baoyu and others came to toast her.

In fact, everyone knew that few people present were optimistic about Jia Rong, but no one would be as stupid as Xing Shi before. In a large family, respectability, respectability as an elder, and respectability as a grandmother are the most important.

Lin Daiyu, who had become close to Qin Keqing recently, naturally expressed her sincere congratulations.

Yingchun and Tanchun were also happy.

Xue Baochai smiled, her heart leaping with joy. It didn't matter, but she was also happy and proud to see people around her willing to make progress.

But unconsciously thinking of Baoyu and Xue Pan, I felt more helpless. Last time I just advised Baoyu to study, but he turned against me. As for his brother Xue Pan, he was even more hopeless.

The next room was also bustling.

Xue Pan, Jia Rong, Feng Ziying, Liu Xianglian and others drank together.

Feng Ziying smiled and said, "The news that Rong'er is going to review the military spread within a day. I think the hunting in Tiewang Mountain will be a lot more lively this time."

"What's the excitement?" Xue Pan became fascinated when he heard the excitement.

Feng Ziying explained, "It's nothing more than old grudges and recent resentments. When they heard that Rong Ge'er was going to review the animals, many people who used to avoid hunting would probably be scrambling to follow him this year. One reason is to watch Rong Ge'er make a fool of himself during the review, and the other is that when hunting, they can't avoid competing with others for rabbits and deer."

hemp eggs.

Is there such a thing?

Jia Rong's mouth trembled with anger. "I haven't offended anyone before, so why would there be so many people watching the fun?"

Feng Ziying nodded and said, "It's true that you haven't offended many people, but if we were to join together, we would have offended many people."

What the hell? What do you mean, is this all my fault?

Chapter 60: On the Eve of the Paddock Parade

"Stop it, Jia Rong's little arms can't pull a bow?"

"Whether he can draw the bow or not, we will see for sure when the time comes."

"It has been many years since those families have participated in the review. If Feng Ziying goes, it would be interesting, but what's so interesting about Jia Rong from Ningguo Mansion?"

"Go watch him make a fool of himself! Have you forgotten that when you were a kid, he and the guy from the Wang family chased you and beat you up?"

"Bah... I saw that she was a girl, so I let her have her way."

"So you were beaten twice by her and Jia Rong!"

The hottest topic in the first month of the year was naturally Jia Rong's participation in the review. No matter if they were near or far, close or distant, everyone was discussing how the "porcelain mallet" would perform in the review.

Jia Rong himself did not expect that just signing up for the review would cause such a big commotion.

Why bother?

He looked at the group of people who came to Ningguo Mansion to inquire and watch the fun, and he was so angry that he burst out.

"Is my reputation so bad in the past? It shouldn't be like this!"
