Early the next morning, after Jia Cong finished exercising, he returned to his room to rest. Knowing that Jia Mu was going to the Grand View Garden, she ate a quick bite of breakfast and then entered the garden with Youshi, Qin Keqing, Yuanyang and others.
When I came in, it was still a little late, and it happened that Jia Mu also brought everyone to the garden. Seeing Jia Cong, Jia Mu asked, "You just came in too?" Jia Cong said, "Well, I heard that the old lady was coming to the garden, so I came over quickly. I didn't expect the old lady to come so early. " Jia Mu said with a smile: "As I get older, I sleep less, so I get up earlier when I can't sleep. I'm not as sleepy as you young people." Yuanyang said with a smile: "Old lady, our master doesn't sleep in late every day until dawn. He gets up and practices martial arts every day without interruption." Upon hearing this, Jia Mu looked at Jia Cong in surprise.
Unexpectedly, this grandson is so self-disciplined. Now he is Ning Guogong, and he still gets up early every day to practice martial arts. This is a bit rare.
If it were anyone else, surrounded by maids, concubines, and beauties, and the sun didn't hit their buttocks every day, they probably wouldn't get up.
It's no wonder that whatever he does, he does it with flying colors. This kind of persistence is really not something ordinary people can have.
"Okay, okay, you are indeed my good grandson. With you here, our Jia family will get better and better." Then he said with a curious face: "You are already the Duke of the country now, do you still need to pay attention every day?" Are you training hard?" Jia Cong smiled and said: "Old lady, my grandson is a military commander. Besides, he is still young and has a long life. Maybe one day he will go to the battlefield again. The soldiers on the battlefield are fierce and dangerous. If you don't have some means of self-protection, wouldn't it be the same as committing suicide?" Upon hearing this, Jia's mother couldn't help but nodded, and she was even more satisfied with this grandson.
With such achievements, people who are still neither arrogant nor impetuous, act cautiously, make decisions before taking action, and prepare in advance for the future, are the people who do great things.
Unlike some people who only care about the present and have fun, when danger comes, they are powerless and can only accept their fate.
"You can have such thoughts and actions, and no one will have to worry about you anymore." Although Mrs. Xing knew that Jia Cong had been hardworking since he was a child.
But I didn't expect that now that I have become famous, I will still work as hard as before, which is countless times better than me.
Thinking about Jia She being surrounded by concubines every day, having fun and drinking, staying up all night, I couldn't help but feel a wry smile in my heart.
Wang Xifeng was a little surprised when she looked at Jia Cong. No wonder this kid was so strong. It turned out that he had to exercise every day. It was really a good habit.
Jia's mother said to Grandma Liu who was beside her: "Old relatives, this is my grandson Brother Cong, who is now the head of the Ningguo Mansion." Someone said to Jia Cong, "This is our old relative, Grandma Liu." Liu Grandma had met Jia Cong when she came here last time. When Jia Mu said it, she remembered it and knew that this was the young Ning Guogong, so she hurriedly came forward to pay tribute.
"I have met the Duke." Jia Cong quickly asked Yuanyang to help her up and said with a smile: "Grandma Liu, there is no need to be polite. Since we are relatives and we are at home, we don't care about official status. There is no need." It's time to give birth." Upon hearing this, Jia Mu chuckled and said, "That's right, dear relatives, don't be too restrained." At this time, Li Wan came over and said with a smile, "The old lady was happy, so she came in first. I I just pretended that I hadn't combed my hair before I pinched the chrysanthemums and sent them away." As he said this, Biyue had already brought a large lotus leaf-shaped jade plate with various chrysanthemums in it.
Jia Mu then picked a bright red chrysanthemum and put it on her temple. She turned back to Grandma Liu and smiled and said, "Come here and bring flowers." Before she could finish her words, Sister Feng pulled Grandma Liu over and said with a smile, "Let me dress you up." After saying that, she put a plate of chrysanthemums in three and four directions. He stabbed Grandma Liu in the head, making Jia Mu and everyone laugh so hard.
Grandma Liu also laughed and said: "I don't know what kind of blessing I have achieved, but I am so respectable today." Everyone laughed and said: "Why don't you pull it off and throw it on her face? I'll dress you up like an old goblin." ." Grandma Liu said with a smile: "Although I am old, I was also a romantic when I was young, and I loved a pretty girl. Now I just want to be an old romantic." When everyone heard this, they all burst out laughing.
Jia Cong stood aside and couldn't help laughing. Grandma Liu was indeed a wonderful person. For the sake of his daughter and son-in-law's family, it is quite wise to be able to put down his posture and make Jia Mu and everyone happy.
While talking, everyone came to Qinfang Pavilion. The maids brought a large brocade mattress and spread it on the railings of the couch.
Jia Mu sat down against the railing, asked Grandma Liu to sit next to her, and asked, "Is this garden good?" Grandma Liu read out something.
"Amitabha" said: "We country people, at the end of the year, all come to the city to buy painting stickers. When we have free time, everyone says: 'How can we go shopping in the paintings?' It's just a matter of thinking about paintings. Is it fake? Is there such a real place there? Who would have thought that when I went into this garden today, it was ten times better than the painting. If someone can draw a picture based on this garden, I will bring it to show them. See, there are benefits even if you die." When Jia Mu heard about it, she pointed at Xichun and said with a smile: "Look at my little granddaughter, she can draw. How about asking her to draw one tomorrow?" After hearing this, Grandma Liu said, He was so happy that he ran over and pulled Xichun, and said: "My girl, you are so old, so good-looking, and so capable, let alone a god who took care of you." As soon as these words came out, it caused a stir. Everyone laughed.
Not to mention, Grandma Liu can make Mrs. Jia and everyone happy, which is considered to be a good thing. After resting for a while, Jia Mu wanted to show off, so she thought of taking Grandma Liu around to see something.
So, we went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion first. As soon as you enter the door, you can see green bamboo paths on both sides, the ground is covered with moss, and a gravel-filled corridor in the middle.
Grandma Liu gave way to go with Jia Mu and others, but she walked on the land herself. Hu Bo pulled her and said, "Grandma, come up and walk. You've slipped on the moss." Grandma Liu said, "It doesn't matter. We're familiar with each other. Girls, just keep walking. It's a pity that your shoes don't get muddy." She said I just raised my head to talk to people, but my feet actually slipped.
With a "Gudong" sound, he fell to the ground. Seeing Grandma Liu falling, everyone clapped their hands and laughed.
Jia Mu laughed and scolded: "You little hooves, why don't you help me up quickly? You just stand and laugh." While speaking, Grandma Liu had already gotten up on her own, smiled herself, and said: "You just spoke, and you were beaten." Mouth." Mother Jia asked: "Have you twisted your waist? Ask the girls to help you beat it." Grandma Liu said: "Where do you say I am so delicate? If I don't fall twice that day, I will beat you up. , it’s not bad.” After strolling around the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, everyone left and headed towards Zilingzhou and Liaoxi.
From a distance, I saw a group of people punting boats in the pool. Before reaching the front of the pool, I saw several women walking towards them holding large boxes made of silk and gold.
Mrs. You hurriedly asked: "Ancestor, where is the breakfast?" When Jia Mu heard about it, she turned around and said, "How about your third sister? Just bring someone to serve it, and we will take a boat from here." You When he heard about it, he turned around, took a shortcut with Li Wan, Feng Jieer, Tanchun, Yuanyang, Hubo and others who served the food to Qiu Shuangzhai, and opened a table in Xiaocuitang.
Yuanyang said with a smile: "Every day we talk about the old men outside having wine and dinner, there is a guy who makes fun of him. Today we also got a female Qingke." Li Wan is a kind person, and he doesn't care about Yuanyang's words. Pay attention.
Youshi knew that it was a relative of the Wang family, so naturally she would not say this. Sister Feng heard that she was talking about Grandma Liu, so she laughed and said, "Let's make a joke out of her today." Li Wanxiao persuaded, "You don't do any good things, and you are not a child, yet you are so naughty. , carefully the old lady said." Yuanyang smiled and said: "Grandma, don't worry, I can make the old lady happy, I believe she won't be really angry." Although he is no longer by Jia Mu's side, Yuanyang knows Jia Mu well. , indeed deeper than others.
Just as they were getting ready, Jia Mu and others walked in. After having tea, Sister Feng held a Western cloth handkerchief in her hand, wrapped in an ebony three-inlaid silver chopsticks, and settled down to the table.
Jia Mu said: "Bring over the small nanmu table and let Liu's family sit next to me." After hearing this, everyone quickly carried it over and placed it next to Jia Mu.
Sister Feng gave Yuanyang a wink, and Yuanyang understood, so she took Grandma Liu out, quietly gave Grandma Liu a few words, and then said: "This is the rule of our family. If it is wrong, we will laugh at it." Grandma Liu sat down After getting off, I picked up the kuaizi and weighed it. It felt very uncomfortable.
It turned out that it was Yuanyang and Sister Feng who were the troublemakers. They gave Grandma Liu a pair of old ivory tassels inlaid with gold.
Grandma Liu took a look and said: "This fork is heavier than the shovel we have there. How can we handle it?" Everyone laughed. Grandma Liu is a pistachio.
I saw a daughter-in-law standing there with a box. A maid came up and took off the lid of the box. There were two bowls of vegetables inside. Li Wan brought a bowl and placed it on Jia Mu's table. Sister Feng picked a bowl of pigeon eggs and placed it on Grandma Liu's table. on the table.
Jia Mu said it here
"please". Grandma Liu stood up and said loudly: "Old Liu, Old Liu, he eats as much as a cow. He can eat an old sow without raising his head." After speaking, she puffed her cheeks and looked straight in the eyes without saying a word.
Everyone was stunned at first, but then when they thought about it, everyone laughed together. Xiangyun couldn't hold on anymore and spit out a mouthful of tea.
Daiyu stopped laughing and leaned on the table just shouting
"Hey." Jia Mu smiled and pointed at Sister Feng, but she was speechless. Aunt Xue couldn't hold it in anymore, and the tea in her mouth sprayed all over Tanchun's skirt.
The teacups of Tanchun are all placed on Yingchun. Xichun left his seat, pulled Jia Cong and shouted
"Rub your intestines." There was no one on the ground who was not bending over, some were hiding out and squatting to laugh, and some were holding back their laughter and came up to change clothes for other sisters.
Only Sister Feng and Yuanyang supported her, and they just let Grandma Liu do it. Grandma Liu picked up the kuaizi, but it didn't work very well.
He also said: "The chickens here are also handsome, and the eggs they lay are also small and handsome. I can get one of them." Everyone stopped laughing, and when they heard this, they laughed again.
Jia Mu laughed so hard that tears flowed out, but she couldn't help it, Amber was beating her gently from behind. Jia Mu smiled and said, "This must be caused by Feng girl's narrow-minded devil. Don't believe her anymore." Sister Feng laughed and said, "It's one tael of silver each. Try it quickly. It won't taste good when it's cold. It's over." Grandma Liu stretched out her crotch to pick it up, but she couldn't pick it up. The bowl was full of commotion for a while, and she finally picked one up, then stretched her neck to eat it, but it slipped down again and rolled to the ground.
I hurriedly put down the kuaizi and went to pick them up myself. Someone underground had already picked them out. Old Liu sighed: "Hey, one or two pieces of silver were gone without even making a sound." At this time, everyone was no longer in the mood to eat, and they all looked at Grandma Liu and kept laughing, even Jia Cong.
After dinner, Jia Mu and others went to Tanchun's inner room to talk. Wang Xifeng said to Grandma Liu: "Don't worry too much, we were just having fun." Yuanyang also came in and smiled: "Grandma, don't be upset, I will make amends for you." Grandma Liu hurriedly smiled and said: " What did the girl say? Let's coax the old lady to have a good time, what's the point of being upset? You tell me first, then I'll understand, but if everyone makes fun of you, I'm annoyed, so I won't say anything." Jia Cong stood there. On the other hand, he couldn't help but nodded when he saw this scene.
It was just a joke to make the old lady happy. Sister Feng and Yuanyang were teasing Grandma Liu. Although it was a bit inappropriate, it was actually not a big deal.
Although Grandma Liu is older, she is not senior in terms of seniority. She is considered to be the same generation as herself and Wang Xifeng.
Peers joke and tease each other, but they don't have so many scruples. Moreover, Grandma Liu is here to catch the autumn wind. It can make Jia Mu and a few people in charge happy, and the benefits are naturally indispensable. From this point of view, Grandma Liu is very clear.
So trying to cooperate with the two of them so that everyone can be happy is what Grandma Liu wants the most.
As Grandma Liu, even if she deliberately caters to everyone and suffers some injustice, she is still willing to do so, in order to maximize her benefits.
In current terms, Grandma Liu was a public relations officer who came to conquer the fortress of the Jia family. From the current point of view, Grandma Liu is doing very well and very successfully.
She has completely won the favor of Jia's mother and everyone. It can be said that her purpose of coming to Jia's house has been perfectly achieved.
I believe that when I go back this time, whether it is Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, or Sister Feng, they will express their feelings.
Even a group of sisters would probably be considerate and send some of their thoughts. Jia Cong is naturally not stingy here. What Jia Cong lacks most now is money. Helping Grandma Liu is as simple as breathing.
After the meal, everyone rested for a while before leaving Qiu Shuangzhai in Tanchun. After walking not far, we came to Nyeyezhu, and then everyone got on the boat and played along the river.
While I was talking, I arrived under the Luogang of Huaxin. I felt gloomy to my bones. The decaying grass and water chestnuts on the two beaches only added to the excitement of autumn.
The vast clear mansion on the shore in the distance is Xue Baochai's Hengwu Courtyard. Everyone came to the shore, went up the Yunbu stone ladder, and entered Hengwu Courtyard together.
I feel a strange fragrance assails my nostrils, and those strange grasses and fairy vines become greener and greener as the weather gets colder. They are all solid, like coral beans, and they are cute and tired.
