Jia Cong looked at Xichun with her little mouth pouted, smiled and rubbed her little head.
This little girl actually learned to be jealous.
"Just take a rest when you are tired. No one is forcing you to practice. You are our lady. You just need to exercise properly. There is no need to make yourself too tired, and I don't expect you to go into battle to kill the enemy.
Just practice as much as you like, just treat it as a hobby, and it can also strengthen your body. If you don't like it, there is no need to practice. Just like the second sister, just don't participate. "
Xichun said: "It's actually quite good to practice. I feel more energetic than before, but I just can't beat Sister Lin."
Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "Fourth girl, if you still want to beat your sister, I think you should stop dreaming. In these two moments, you probably have no hope in this life, so you should just go ahead and do whatever you want."
Xichun shook Jia Cong's arm and said coquettishly: "Brother, look at Sister Lin, she bullies me, you have to make the decision for me."
This little girl actually learned to act like a baby.
Moreover, he also called Lin Daiyu into trouble. What is going on?
Jia Cong blinked and looked at Lin Daiyu, who smiled and said nothing.
Jia Cong chuckled and said, "If you want to beat your sister Lin, you have to work harder. Your sister Lin has been practicing martial arts longer and harder than you. You won't be able to beat her in the short term. "
Xichun said: "Brother, what should I do?"
Jia Cong said: "There are two ways. The first is to practice hard and defeat her in the future. The second is to surrender directly."
Tanchun chuckled and said, "Fourth sister, I think we should forget it. It will be really difficult for us to beat Sister Lin."
Lin Daiyu said with a smile: "Three girls are right, you two should surrender obediently."
Xichun snorted and said, "Brother, you are partial and I will ignore you."
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Brother is telling the truth. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. The Provincial Family Courtyard has been built and I have taken it over completely. I came here today to take you for a walk. Do you want to go?" "
Xichun immediately changed her smile and said happily: "Really, great, let's go now."
Tanchun said: "I have heard from Sister-in-law Feng that the courtyard is very beautifully built, but there are many craftsmen inside, so it is not convenient for us to go there and take a look. Now is the time to go and take a look."
Lin Daiyu said: "The old lady is very interested in this garden and often asks about the progress. Let's go and talk to the old lady first and ask her if she is going. If so, let's go together."
Jia Cong nodded and said, "Well, that's the truth. You guys need to clean up first. Let's go to the old lady's place first."
After a while, Yingchun and Xue Baochai were called again, and they came to Jia Mu's room together.
Seeing several people coming together, Jia Mu said with a smile: "Brother Cong, why did you come here together today instead of going to the Yamen?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "If nothing happens, I won't go. If anything happens, they will come to me.
Old lady, the Provincial Family Courtyard has been renovated. The scenery inside is much more beautiful than the former Huifang Garden. I think the weather is nice today and I want to take the old lady in for a walk. Are you interested? "
Jia Mu smiled and said, "I heard from Girl Feng that the repairs over there were completed. I had wanted to go in and have a look. She also said that you were still finishing things over there, so she didn't rush over there. Is everything in order now?"
Jia Cong said: "Well, after the craftsmen left, I summoned the people in the mansion and thoroughly cleaned the entire provincial residence. All the furnishings and hangings in the garden were in place.
After the old lady has read it, she can go to the emperor and ask Concubine Yuan to marry her. Once the palace has announced the date and decided on the date, we will be busy here for a few days. "
Jia Mu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, today I will go with you to see how the garden has been built. Call your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, and ask the eldest wife, second wife, and Aunt Xue to come. Your sister-in-law Zhen, and Brother Rong’s daughter-in-law are also following us, it’s very lively because of the crowd.”
The old lady likes to be lively, so let her do it.
He is indispensable. Even if the girl in the mansion goes to play in the garden in the future, he cannot refuse.
However, if men want to enter the garden, they can do so now.
After Daiyu and the others have moved in, if they want to enter the garden, there will be no way.
Except for the uncles and brothers from the two houses who occasionally go in to hang out, outsiders are not allowed to think about it.
Thinking of this, I arranged for the maids to go and call for help.
When everyone arrived, Jia Cong took them through the corner gate of Rongguo Mansion and entered the Provincial Family Courtyard.
Visited various attractions one by one.
Yihongyuan, Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Hengwuyuan, Daoxiang Village, Qiushuangzhai, Nuanxiangwu, Liaofengxuan, Zhujinlou, Zilingzhou, Congcui'an, Dicuiting, Lotus Pavilion, Tubi Villa, Ao Crystal Pavilion, Hongxiang Garden, Luxue Temple, Fengyao Bridge, Liuyezhu, Jiameng Hall...
After walking around for a while, everyone was very tired.
However, the scenery in the garden also made everyone couldn't help but admire it.
Mother Jia sighed with emotion: "This garden is much better than the previous Huifang Garden. It's not wasted so much money. Not bad, not bad. Brother Cong and I are satisfied that we have put in the trouble."
Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Ancestor, don't praise him. He didn't bother. It was our family Lian Er who took the trouble. From the beginning to the end, our family Lian Er has been watching here. Brother Cong is the one who made the effort. Just a little money, just come over and take a look occasionally.
Brother Cong is just a hands-off shopkeeper, but our Lian Er does everything. "
Jia Cong was speechless for a while. This old woman was really interesting. She started to take credit for her man.
But, what's the use of fighting in front of the old lady?
Could it be that I can still give you some money?
When You heard what Wang Xifeng said, she was not happy.
This provincial residence was built with money from my own family. Jia Lian was just a supervisor.
When Wang Xifeng said this, all the credit would be theirs.
Brother Cong doesn't care about this and doesn't want to fight with her, but he can't watch her being too arrogant.
Youshi joked: "Listen, what did Feng girl say? After all, it is all the credit of their family, and co-authorship has nothing to do with our family."
Mother Jia chuckled and said, "Brother Lian, thank you for your hard work. The two brothers have done a good job in this matter. This garden is not only beautiful, but also luxurious and grand, making people forget to leave."
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "What the old lady said is that this garden is really well-done. Even compared to the gardens in the south, it is not bad."
Mother Jia smiled and said, "Thank you for your family's help. I heard from Brother Cong that your caravan has helped a lot."
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Old lady, you're welcome. We all live together like a family. It's okay to help out a little. Pan'er is doing business with Brother Cong, and the two of them have a very good relationship. I can help with this small thing." Being busy is nothing."
Wang Xifeng curled her lips. As an aunt, she would make a lot of money by getting in touch with her brother-in-law.
Moreover, Xue Pan, the stupid overlord, also knew how to make progress with brother Cong. He earned a lot of money back, which made his aunt extremely happy.
Although Xue Pan still has many bad habits, if he can make progress and earn a lot of money, then he is considered a good person.
Although I also made a lot of money, I didn't have as many shops as the Xue family, and they couldn't compare with the Xue family.
The Xue family has shops in more than a dozen provinces, and there are more than a hundred shops across the country. With the Cong brothers' continuous supply of goods, they can really make a lot of money.
I heard from Lian Er that Xue Pan was drunk and shook his bottom out.
Last year alone, they made more than 600,000 taels of silver, which was even better than the Xue family in its heyday.
Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "Cousin Pan has become very successful in the past few years. He has made a lot of money back. Auntie can rest assured now."
Mrs. Wang said: "What Miss Feng is saying is that Brother Pan has made progress in the past few years. He is busy doing business and no longer goes out to mess around. He is really promising. My sister will wait to enjoy the blessings in the future."
Aunt Xue felt happy when she heard Wang Xifeng and her sister praise their son.
As a parent, who doesn’t want his son to be successful and stand out?
My bastard son used to be my problem, but now he has gotten better, and he has face when he talks about it, so how can he not be happy?
"Pan'er, this kid, made me worry so much before. I was hit and scolded, but it didn't work. Who would have thought that after doing business with Brother Cong, I would actually know that I have made progress? Thank you, Brother Cong."
Jia Cong said with a smile: "Auntie was joking. Brother Xue knows that he has made progress. That's because he has figured it out and knows what he wants to do. It has nothing to do with me."
Mother Jia laughed and said, "It's a good thing to be able to grow up. When the children are older, they all know what's good and bad, so we don't need to worry too much."
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "What the old lady said is that I have saved a lot of worry in the past few years. I don't have to worry all day long about that evildoer not learning well and causing trouble outside."
Mrs. Wang asked: "Brother Cong, that wonderful jade in Loncui Temple has profound Buddhist teachings and looks like a hermit. I wonder what its origin is?"
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Jia Cong, and even Jia's mother was attracted.
Everyone walked around the Cui'an, but due to time constraints, they did not stop. Mrs. Wang and Miaoyu chatted about Buddhism, and they were immediately shocked, and that's why they asked the question just now.
Everyone is curious about Miaoyu, the main reason is because she is so beautiful.
Except for Daiyu, Xichun, Youshi, and Qin Keqing, no one else knew anything about Miaoyu.
Only then was he curious, wondering where Jia Cong hired such a person.
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Miaoyu was born in Suzhou, and his ancestors were also scholars and officials. Because he was sick since he was a child, he bought many substitutes, but they were of no use. When he was three years old, he became a Buddhist monk and he recovered. , so I led my disciples to practice at Xuan Tomb Panxiang Temple.
I am eighteen years old this year. My parents are both dead now. I only have two old ladies and a little girl to serve me. I am also very proficient in writing and familiar with classics. I heard that there are Guanyin ruins and Beiye inscriptions in the capital of Chang'an. Last year He came to Beijing with his master and lived in Muni Courtyard outside Ximen.
Her master performed the innate divine hexagrams very well and was well-known in the industry. He was a truly strange person. He passed away last winter. I happened to be there at the time, so her master entrusted her to me, and it was just right for her to be here in Lancui Nunnery. "
Jia Mu nodded and said, "No wonder this girl looks aloof and aloof, and is incompatible with people like us. She has lived in a nunnery since she was a child. This makes sense.
Brother Cong, are you familiar with them? Why did her master entrust her to you? "
Jia Cong said: "On our way to Yangzhou last year, their master and apprentice happened to come to Beijing, and we knew each other at that time. The teacher was too sure that Miaoyu would have a big disaster and could not solve it.
After seeing me, she said that Miaoyu could escape the disaster only if she followed me, and that she had reached her end and could no longer take care of Miaoyu, so she entrusted her to me. "
Jia Mu said: "So that's what happened. He can even calculate his own end. He is really a strange person. It's a pity that we don't have the opportunity to meet him. Since I entrusted it to you, you have to give her some snacks. You can really help her through it." Too bad?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "When it comes to disaster, it is either a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. Miaoyu is young and beautiful. According to my analysis, man-made disaster is the most likely, and the thing that my grandson is least afraid of is man-made disaster.
It's not that my grandson is bragging. As long as I don't agree with the person my grandson wants to protect, no one in this world can really hurt her. Therefore, the teacher still has some skills. "
This was a bit exaggerated, and people like Li Wan, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, etc. all disagreed.
I think Jia Cong is just bragging. No matter how powerful you are, when you meet someone from the royal family, you can only submit obediently.
Mother Jia looked at the confident Jia Cong and recalled that none of the things he had done were audacious. Even the princes had offended two princes, but he didn't do anything at all. She couldn't help but believe it.
At the same time, Jia Mu was also a little worried.
This child is too courageous and has no respect for the royal family at all. If this continues, I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing?
Jia's mother said: "Now that the palace is repaired, the matter of your eldest sister's marriage should also be put on the agenda. You and your second uncle should discuss it and give the palace a note to see when the palace will let your eldest sister come back. To save my family, we can prepare earlier."
Jia Cong said: "I know, old lady, I will go find my second uncle to discuss this matter when I get back. It would be best if my second uncle comes forward to help."
Seeing that it was lunch time, Jia Cong asked: "Old lady, I have arranged the kitchen and chef in the garden. Do you want to eat in the garden or go out?
If we eat in the garden, we choose a place and let the kitchen prepare the meal. "
Mother Jia thought for a while and said, "It's better to go out to eat. After all, this place is for your eldest sister to stay at home. We are using it inside before she uses it. This is not good."
Mrs. Wang said: "What the old lady said is that we should go back to eat."
Seeing both of them saying this, Jia Cong followed them and led them out of the yard and back to Jia Mu's house.
Jia Mu said, "I'm so happy today, don't even leave. I'll be the host at noon, and everyone will be lively. Girl Feng, go to the kitchen to make arrangements."
