When the two returned to Jia Mu's room, the banquet was being prepared.

When Jia Mu saw the two of them coming back, she couldn't help but curiously asked: "Why have you been gone so long? What have you two been doing?"

Jia Cong walked forward with a smile and said with a smile: "Old lady, are you worried that I abducted Sister Yuanyang, or are you worried that Sister Yuanyang abducted her grandson?"

Seeing Jia Cong's appearance, Jia's mother couldn't help but feel happy. She laughed and scolded: "Your grandson is so smart that he has already caught up with your sister-in-law, Brother Feng. Why am I worried about you? I'm worried that the mandarin duck will be kidnapped by you." .”

"Ouch! Ancestor, this has nothing to do with me. Why did you drag me into it again? I've been busy every day without even leaving my feet off the ground. Serving the old and the young, your old lord You’re still arranging me here, ugh! It’s so difficult for me!”

As soon as Wang Xifeng said this, especially the weird look at the end, it immediately caused a burst of laughter.

Wang Xifeng was always good at making jokes and making jokes, which made the old lady very happy. She was deeply fond of Jia Mu. She couldn't help laughing when she heard what she said was interesting.

"Listen, Brother Feng's mouth is so real. As soon as I said a word, she blocked me with a lot of words."

Seeing that Jia Mu was happy, everyone laughed together for a while, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.

At this time, Yuanyang said angrily: "Old lady, after all, I was trained by you, how can you not have any confidence in me? The third master ran back to his big house, and I chased him all the way. Please come back."

After hearing Yuanyang's words, Jia Mu came back to her senses, looked at Jia Cong and asked curiously: "If you weren't drinking and playing with your brothers outside, what were you doing back there?"

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Old lady, I have also arranged to worship the Kitchen God over there. Why don't you take some time to go back and worship? As soon as the worship was finished, Sister Yuanyang went and she came back immediately."

My mother nodded when she heard this. Since there was someone in the house over there, it was time to pay her respects.

"I heard from your fourth sister and your sister Lin that the stories you told them are quite interesting. There are many people today, so you can tell them one to make everyone happy."

Jia Cong felt a burst of criticism in his heart. They were all stories to coax children. This adult wouldn't be interested, right?

"Old lady, let me state in advance that my little stories are just to entertain children and may not be suitable for you, old lady. If you don't think they sound good, don't blame me."

Jia Mu said, "Just tell us, and we'll just treat it as a novelty."

Jia Cong thought for a while and wanted to find a story suitable for all ages. Since telling a story, it must make everyone happy.

Finally, I thought of "The Emperor's New Clothes". This story has a strong irony. I wonder what kind of repercussions it will get if it is spread out.

Then will the emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty cause trouble for me?

Probably not. In that case, it would not be self-inflicted. Besides, I am still a child.

It is conceivable that once this story spreads, he will become famous, many people will remember him, and the entire Shenjing City will probably be a lot more lively.

"Old lady, this story is called "The Emperor's New Clothes."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him attentively and looking forward to it, Jia Cong started to speak.

"A long time ago, there was a distant country. There was an emperor who liked to wear beautiful clothes very much. He would change his clothes every hour.

The emperor's two favorite things were to be in the dressing room and to show off his new clothes to the world.

On this day, two weavers came to the city, claiming to be the best weavers in the world and able to weave the most beautiful cloth in the world.

The colors and patterns of this kind of cloth are not only very beautiful, but the clothes sewn from it also have a strange characteristic, that is, no incompetent or stupid person can see the clothes.

The news soon spread throughout the city and reached the emperor's ears.

The emperor was overjoyed. This was exactly the clothes he liked. He could use it to test whether his ministers were competent, and also to see who was smart and who was stupid.

So he found two weavers, gave them a large amount of gold, silver, and precious silk threads, and asked them to weave this unique cloth for themselves and make a new suit of clothes.

The two men set up a loom and were busy weaving on it every day.

After a few days, there was still no news. The emperor couldn't calm down and asked his most loyal minister to urge him to see if the cloth was woven.

When the minister came to the weaving place, he only saw the loom spinning and working, but not a trace of cloth. He was shocked and asked, "Am I an incompetent person?" Or a stupid person? '

At this time, the two weavers pointed at the loom and began to introduce it to the minister, and asked him if the patterns were beautiful and the colors were beautiful. The minister's eyes widened, but he still saw nothing.

The minister was a little flustered. He must not let anyone know that he was stupid. He must hide it.

So the minister said: "This cloth is so beautiful. With this pattern and color combination, it is the most beautiful cloth in the world. I will definitely report it to the emperor." '

The minister went back and said that the cloth was so beautiful. The emperor was very happy and rewarded him with a large number of gold and silver treasures.

A few days later, the emperor couldn't wait any longer, so he sent another loyal minister to check. After this minister went, he couldn't see anything. He didn't think he was stupid, he just thought he was incompetent. .

This matter could not be known, so he also lied and went back to tell the emperor that the cloth was so beautiful, it was the most beautiful cloth in the world.

The emperor was even more happy after hearing this, and rewarded the two craftsmen greatly.

After a few days, it was finally completed. The emperor decided to see for himself how beautiful the cloth was, and led a group of ministers to the loom.

The two ministers from before politely stepped forward and introduced, "Your Majesty, you look at the beautiful colors and the beautiful patterns." '

The emperor stared for a long time and saw nothing, but he didn't want people to know that he was a stupid and incompetent emperor. He could only nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed beautiful. It is so charming. I have never seen it before." I have never seen such a beautiful cloth. '

All the ministers looked and looked and found nothing. When they saw the emperor, they all praised it. Everyone praised the cloth for being so beautiful and suggested that the emperor wear this beautiful new clothes to participate in the parade.

The next day, the two tailors made the new clothes and said, "Look, this dress is as light as a spider's web. The person wearing it will feel as if there is nothing on him. This is exactly the reason for this dress." Wonderful thing. '

The emperor was asked to take off his clothes, and the two men made gestures on the emperor's body for a long time before dressing the emperor.

The parade began, with the emperor standing on the roof of the car and driving slowly down the street.

People standing on the street said: 'My dear, the emperor's new clothes are so beautiful! How beautiful the train is under his coat! How the clothes fit! '

No one wants to let people know that they can't see something, because it will reveal that they are incompetent or stupid.

The emperor was very happy when he heard the people's comments, because none of his clothes had ever received such praise.

'But he has nothing on! 'A child's voice suddenly rang.

The whole street suddenly fell silent, and then everyone started talking.

'Yeah, I didn't see him wearing clothes either. '

'In fact, he had no clothes on at all. '

The emperor looked down at his naked self, and his body was shaking a little, because he felt that what the people said was true.

But if he backed down at this time, it would be a complete joke. I had to finish the parade, so he put on a more proud look, stood on the car and continued to drive forward..."

As the story finished, the whole room burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha..."

"Hey, brother Cong, your story is so interesting. I really don't know how you came up with it. My sister-in-law is really convinced by you, hahaha..."

Jia Mu also laughed happily, "Ouch, I can't do it anymore, my stomach hurts from laughing so much, Yuanyang, come here and help me."

When Jia Cong started to speak, several little girls came close to him, just to hear it clearly. At this time, they were all swaying with laughter.

Lin Daiyu covered her stomach with one hand and her mouth with the other, smiling so wildly that Jia Cong was afraid that she would break her waist, so he quickly reached out to help her.

It took a while for Lin Daiyu to calm down. She rolled her eyes at Jia Cong and said disapprovingly: "Brother Cong also said that I am a small and narrow-minded ghost. The story you told today is really... It really makes me laugh to death." Oh, oops, I want to laugh again."

As he spoke, he leaned against Jia Cong and chuckled again.

After a while, everyone stopped laughing.

Mother Jia looked at Jia Cong with a smile on her face. This grandson was really surprising. I don’t know how I came up with such an interesting story. He was so talented. I was very satisfied with this grandson for a while.

"No wonder the fourth girl wants to hear your story. You tell it really well. I haven't heard such an interesting story for a long time. I don't know how you came up with it?"

Jia Cong smiled and said: "As long as the old lady likes it, it's fine. My grandson's work has not been in vain."

Li Wan also smiled and said: "Brother Cong's story is so interesting. I can't help but laugh when I think about it. No wonder Lan'er said that the story told by his Uncle Cong is good. Now he really sees it."

Xichun raised his head and said, "Third brother, this story you told is the funniest."

Baoyu suddenly said: "Is there really such clothes in this world?"

There was a sudden silence in the room, and everyone immediately realized that Baoyu was going crazy again.

Wang Xifeng laughed and said: "What's wrong, Brother Bao, do you also want to wear something like this?"

Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter again.

"Hahahahaha..."
