The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return

Chapter 55

If Jia Hu is not gay, this plan may become a reality one day, but there is no if in the world, Jia Hu is determined not to have a family.

But Jia Amnesty and Liu Shi must not accept it, so Jia Hu had no choice but to draw it slowly.

This time, in order to prevent his mother from giving him Aunt Sai's room in the future, Jia Hu confessed all these words, but unexpectedly aroused his mother's concern.

Jia Hu was a little embarrassed, he managed to coax his mother because she was willing to let him coax him, and some common tricks to show filial piety and win girls could easily cheer her up.Now that mother looked really sad, Jia Hu was a little at a loss.

He was about to wipe her tears clumsily, and kept asking what was wrong.

Liu Shi always loved Jia Hu very much, so she stopped her tears and said with a smile with reddish eyes, "My son, mother is so happy."

She wanted to hold Jia Hu in her arms like she did when she was a child, but found that Jia Hu was already taller than herself, so she touched his face with her hands and said with emotion: "My son has grown up." She can also understand her mother's feelings. Painful.

Jia Hu understood something in an instant, and felt guilty, so she kept silent and let Liu's hand move on his face.

Some things, some words, my mother has held back for too long, and she will continue to hold back.

Maybe when Ying'er is also married, mother will be able to hold her and cry heartily.

Mrs. Liu calmed down quickly, turned her eyes to the crumpled letter on the table, and laughed out loud, "Look where we've come."

Jia Hu also cooperated and laughed: "Speaking of which, my mother regrets not being able to marry the princess cousin for me!"

Jia Hu didn't want her mother to be angry again after being sad, so she changed the subject and said, "By the way, February is Chunwei, mother, wait to see my champion, and it won't be too late to see my daughter-in-law at that time." Said with a playful smile , "Your son is still young, but he is a well-known son-in-law in Beijing. Mother, don't be too picky."

Mrs. Liu was also happy, and urged: "It's almost the first month, why don't you go to the study to study."

He said again: "You can only study at ease, I will be there for other things, if not, there will be your two uncles and your Uncle Lin."

Jia Hu smiled and agreed, went outside to tease Jia Lian who was still sleeping late, and asked Jia Ying who was embroidering a purse in the warm pavilion to promise to embroider him another purse from Toad Palace, and left Rongrong in a relaxed mood. Xitang went back to the study in his yard.

Hegui had been waiting for a long time in the study, and when he saw the uncle coming, he hurried forward and followed behind to report: "Master, there is a letter from Prince Cheng's residence."

Jia Hu pulled it over and saw that there were only two words on it: deal.

He hooked his lips into a smile.

"What else?"

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Sun and Mr. Lin will arrive in the capital tomorrow, and they haven't decided where to stay yet."

"Prepare a yard for them—no, book three rooms for them in the Zhuangyuan building. Three adjacent upper rooms."

"Yes."

When Jia Amnesty came back from court, she was invited to Mrs. Liu by her servant girl.

"Caifu? But what's the matter?" Jia Amnesty changed into his court clothes, tired and sleepy, took a plate of dim sum and ate a few sips of cold tea.

Going to the Great Court is really not a person to do things. You have to get up before dawn. It is still freezing outside the hall in winter. When you enter the hall, you will stand for two or three hours.

The saddest thing is that Jia She, as the Duke of Rong, must appear on the stage, and he is still standing in the front row. This makes Jia She, who listens to the courtiers and the emperor talking about political affairs as if listening to a scripture, drowsy, but he can't really If you fall asleep, you will be seen by the emperor above.

Fortunately, the court only came once every three days, and Jia Amnesty didn't receive a real job, and he didn't even use a little hair on weekdays, so he suffered a little at this time.

Seeing that he was eating in a hurry, Mrs. Liu asked Bai Guo to serve hot tea for Jia Amnesty, saying, "It's winter, how can I drink cold tea?" And the food that I had ordered from the kitchen before was served one by one.

Jia She even ate a few pieces of snacks to fill his stomach, and then he held the teacup in his hand and drank it slowly, asking, "Caifu?"

Seeing that the meal was ready, Mrs. Liu filled a bowl of whitebait soup and said, "Master, let's eat first."

When the two of them dine alone, they usually "eat without talking, sleep without talking", not as lively as when their children are together. In the main room, it was probably because of the weakening of the relationship between the two of them because they stayed at the aunt's place.

After dinner, Jia Amnesty drank the last sip of soup contentedly, and said with emotion that he finally came back to life.

After rinsing his mouth and washing his hands, Jia Shefang took the letter that Mrs. Liu handed over to him, and looked at it slowly. After seeing it, he couldn't help but feel angry.

Now Jia Amnesty understood why Mrs. Liu let him eat first.

He pondered for a moment and asked, "Is what the letter said true?"

Mrs. Liu said calmly: "The servant who sent the letter said that they didn't see Miss Zhou's family with their own eyes, but they inquired nearby, and everyone in Jinling City knew that Miss Zhou's family had a strange disease. Go to the temple outside the city to pray to the gods and worship the Buddha. However, the word of the two families' engagement has not spread."

Jia She is a person who has died once, and he is especially taboo about ghosts and gods. The monk's speech is not pleasant, and Jia Hu's "fate is weird" just aroused Jia She's suspicion.

He said: "What result did you get by combining the horoscope?"

Mrs. Liu replied: "You will grow old together, and your children and grandchildren will be full. That Miss Zhou's family is a prosperous husband."

Jia Amnesty was puzzled, the letter was serious, and Miss Zhou's serious illness was also very strange, forgive the Zhou family for not daring to deceive Rongfu.He suddenly asked: "Where did you get the horoscope?"

Mrs. Liu said: "I've gone to ask for those who are effective or not near the capital. Most of them are middle-aged and upper-middle-married. No one said that Hu'er would defeat Miss Zhou's family." That's why Mrs. Liu didn't believe what the abbot said. Biggest reason.

Everyone agrees that it is good, but you alone say that it is not good, so can Mrs. Liu not doubt it.What's more, even a mother would not believe his orders to Jia Hu.

Jia Amnesty was silent for a long time before saying: "This marriage, let's just leave it."

"It's just that Zhou's family, it's better not to get too close."

As soon as Jia Amnesty spoke, the matter was a foregone conclusion.

Mrs. Liu was really upset, she made Zhou's family cold, and the New Year ceremony was neither salty nor light, so she just vowed to hire a Zhou family's daughter, which was far beyond her reach.

Seemingly seeing Liu's thoughts, Jia She said to her: "There is no rush for Hu'er's marriage. After he passes the palace examination, he can choose from a wider range." Good man, this is the daughter-in-law of the head of the Rongguo Mansion, you can't pick a petite one, and you don't have to make Hu'er difficult for your wife and younger siblings."

Liu nodded with a smile.

Just thinking about the many noble girls of the right age in Beijing, it is still necessary to see each other as soon as possible, otherwise the best ones will be picked away in the end.

After talking about it, Mrs. Liu turned to worry and said: "Aunt Wan is not feeling well this morning. I sent a doctor to see her. The doctor said that the fetus is too big, and I am afraid it will not be very good."

Jia Amnesty was unhappy and asked, "When is the due date?"

Liu made some calculations and said, "It's just around the time of spring."

Jia Amnesty didn't want to bother about these things, and just said: "Let her go. When she is born, she will be held under your knees and raised. If it is a girl, she will be called Yingchun." I can't remember clearly, but since she is a concubine, I don't bother to bother.

Liu's heart was at ease, and she laughed at herself a little. In the past few years, Jia Amnesty only guarded her, but she got used to her, and even started to favor Xiao Xiangjiaofang alone.But the master is not someone who favors concubines and destroys wives. Although the number of concubines and concubines has begun to show up, her position in the family is still unshakable.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Jia Amnesty went to see Aunt Wan again, and beat her a few times to make her proud.Soon at noon, they stopped by Songtao Courtyard to call Jia Hu, and the two returned to Rongxi Hall together, and the family had dinner together.

The next day, Zhou, Sun, and Lin got off the boat hurriedly, and saw Jia and Zhao waiting on the shore.

As soon as Sun Muge's heart was sweet, he went to the side with Zhao Yi to make friends with each other; Zhou Ren turned his face away when he saw Jia Hu, and only talked to Lin Li next to him; After struggling for a while, he still stepped forward to talk to Jia Hu.

"Is the boat comfortable?" Jia Hu greeted, "No major incidents happened along the way, right?"

Lin Li shook his head with a smile, and said, "Nothing happened, and no one got seasick. It's just that I've been on the boat for a long time, and I'm getting tired of looking at the river."

After asking a few more questions, Lin Li answered them one by one.At this moment, Sun and Zhao's lovesickness was relieved, and they also came over, Jia Hu then said: "Do you have a place to stay in Beijing? Why don't you just stay at my house."

Zhao Yi was unhappy, and said that the guest courtyard of the Dachang Princess' Mansion had been cleaned, and they were welcome to come and live.

Zhou Ren tugged at Sun Muge's clothes, Sun Huiyi said, "Just find an inn." He winked at Jia Hu.

Jia Hu could only smile wryly, and after a while, he said with such an expression: "I ordered someone to book a room in the Zhuangyuan Building, why not go to the Zhuangyuan Building."

After inquiring that Zhuangyuan Building is the first choice for many candidates to live in, several of them readily agreed.

When we arrived at Zhuangyuan Building, Jia Hu said, "You are tired from the boat ride, go back and rest first. It won't be too late to take you to see the way tomorrow."

Sun Muge agreed without hesitation, which made Lin Li quite embarrassed.Zhou Ren came here and didn't say a word to Jia Hu. Although he felt itchy and wanted to play around, he didn't want to talk to Jia Hu, and only looked at the others sadly.

Under the nimble action of the servant, several people were settled quickly. Jia Hu had informed her mother in the morning that they would have dinner at the Zhuangyuan building at noon.Because they arrived late, the boxes upstairs were full of people, so Jia Hu and his party ate in the hall.

Zhou Ren seemed to be venting, ordered a lot of wine, and drank one cup after another.Jia Hu was amused in his heart, but he didn't dissuade him. After a while, Zhou Ren became drunk, and Jia Hu took the initiative to help him upstairs under the surprised eyes of several people.

Jia Hu helped the faltering Zhou Ren upstairs, and his figure disappeared from their sight.Seeing this, Lin Li said happily, "Could it be that Jia Hu has figured it out?" During this period of time, watching Zhou Ren immerse all his thoughts in the book, desperately looking like Saburo, made Lin Li very sad.

Zhao Yi shook his head slightly, and Sun Muge explained tacitly: "Don't look at Jia Hu's easy-talking appearance, he has very righteous ideas, and Xianzong may have made the wrong idea."

Sun Muge sighed in his heart, he didn't want to meet Ziming's wife and children face to face, so he rejected him; Xianzong wanted to play hard to catch, and wanted to cold Jia Hu, so that he would take the initiative to ask for peace, but he didn't know that this would only Push people back further and further away.

He glanced at Zhao Yi. It was difficult for same-sex couples to stay together after entering official careers. If you don't take advantage of this time to cherish the time you are still together, don't regret it in the future.

Sun Muge sighed in the hall downstairs, and as soon as Jia Hu left their sight, he pinched Zhou Ren's arm and said softly, "Why are you doing this? This attitude is so boring."
