Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 72

"How can you not be in a hurry." King Zhongshun sighed, and he rushed towards the manor non-stop after discussing the court affairs.The importance attached to cement is beyond the imagination of Jia Rong and others.

"The two rivers of the Yellow River and the Huaihe River have been difficult to control since ancient times. If this thing can be used for water conservancy as soon as possible, the people in one more place will be saved from flooding."

Hearing King Zhongshun's words, Uncle Rong couldn't sit still.He patted his clothes, saluted King Zhongshun, and said, "Qiantui is so worried about the people, I am really ashamed. The dam channel is being built here, and the boy will not dare to be lazy anymore. I will definitely let the officials today and the court see the great use of cement." .”

What Jia Rong said made King Zhongshun look at him with admiration.King Zhongshun took so much trouble to build a dam on his manor just to get all officials to recognize this new type of material.Above the court, it has never been decided by any one person.Even the powerful King Zhongshun also had many concerns.

Next, Jia Rong can no longer be lazy, but King Zhongshun also gave him good news.As long as it can be proved to be useful, King Zhongshun will make a statement, and the cement produced by Zhuangzi in Ningguo Mansion will be fully contracted by the Ministry of Industry.

"It must be useful." Uncle Rong thought about it, and smiled suddenly.The cement produced in my farm has been specially supplied to the Ministry of Industry, and when I open a few more kilns in the future, when it is sold out, those wealthy businessmen should rush to buy it first?

There are so many Zhuangzi in the world, which one does not build a dam and canal?Or pave a road to get acquainted?It's done, it's done.

King Zhongshun snorted, "Don't get complacent too early, if you let me know that you are shoddy, and sell it cheaply. I will give up the king and steal your Jia's house."

"No, no." Brother Rong and King Zhongshun reassured.I have credit, at most the cost is 250 Wen, and the selling price is [-] Wen.

With this promise, Jia Rong became more motivated to conduct.

"Brother Qiang, you have to be careful everywhere. You can't make any mistakes, otherwise our Ningguo Mansion will be in trouble." Uncle Rong said to scare Brother Qiang, and then told Zong Cheng. "You pass on the word, if the repair here satisfies the palace, I will give you two more months' wages."

Zong Cheng grinned and said, "Thank you, Uncle."

Immediately shouted the news with the craftsmen who were working.When the people from the nearby palace and the Ministry of Industry heard this, they were all stunned and envious.

Jia Qiang wiped off the sweat from her face, and affirmed with Uncle Rong: "I will never make a mistake about what Brother Rong told me."

"Among all the brothers in the family, I can trust you." Jia Rong nodded her head, patted Brother Qiang'er on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "When this is done, next year I will ask the wives and grandmas of the two houses to tell you something. Family matter."

Jia Qiang smiled shyly, and said, "Thank you, Brother Rong, I'm not in a hurry, as long as Brother Rong comes to the village more often, I'll be satisfied."

amount……

What's wrong, there is no rush to marry a wife?Like asking me to go to the village to have a look?
What to look at?
You don't want me to see you, do you?Uncle Rong's scalp was numb, and he was very suspicious of Jia Qiang's orientation.Laughing embarrassingly, "You are not young anymore, you have reached the age of marrying a wife. I will ask Second Aunt and the others to pay attention to whether there are any suitable women in each house."

Jia Qiang hummed lightly, and didn't say any more.

In the afternoon, Uncle Rong returned to the mansion.I heard that Feng Ziying, Xue Pan and others had come here just after I arrived at the mansion, but I left in embarrassment only when I heard that I had gone to the Zhongshun Prince's Manor.

All the noble sons of the noble family, what are you doing?Jia Rong sighed softly, isn't she just a nobleman.

"I don't want to see you again, sir?" Qin Keqing also knew that Master Rong went to Wanhualou yesterday, and said leisurely, "Er Bao even followed me out of the mansion after hearing this. Is this woman really so charming?"

When Uncle Rong saw Sister Feng and Lin Daiyu, they all looked over, shook his head quickly and said, "I don't know, I don't know. Maybe it's because this woman is proficient in rhythm, and I'm a vulgar person who doesn't understand these things, so I'm not interested."

I am different from Baoyu, this guy is only ten years old now, he chases the maids to eat rouge every day, and occasionally comes to the room with the maids to play in the water.Baoyu listened to Feng Ziying and the others, and went to Wanhualou to drink flower wine, which couldn't be more normal.

Sister Feng said politely: "It's not just Baoyu, the second master Lian in the mansion should also go together. I'm curious, we in the duke's mansion are not as brilliant as a brothel girl?"

Uncle Rong didn't know who exactly Sister Feng was referring to, so he didn't dare to take it lightly, he laughed twice, and said: "It happens that Aunt Lin is here today, and Rong'er also has a free time, so I can make a portrait of Aunt Lin .”

Lin Daiyu's eyes flashed brightly after hearing this, she nodded and said, "Alright, please trouble Brother Rong."

It's just that Jia Rong was a little curious in her heart. This couple, made in heaven in the red building, heard that Baoyu had gone to the brothel, so why did Lin Daiyu have no strange expression on her face.Without thinking too much, he asked Que'er to wait for the maid to set up the drawing board and shelf, and invited the teenage aunt to find a place to sit down.

Lin Daiyu looked at her face with Jia Rong's serious eyes, even though there were servant girls such as Xueyan and Que'er in the room, she still showed a little shyness.

Falling into Brother Rong's eyes, I just felt my heart palpitate.Lin Daiyu is still young, and her facial features have not yet fully developed, so it is amazing enough to show this little shame.Brother Rong sighed in his heart, when this little aunt grows up, she will be an alluring beauty again.Why did you just fall in love with Baoyu?

Jia Rong planned in her heart that Aunt Lin must have a bad eye.

In fact, there is a huge difference between Rong's paintings for Lin Daiyu and those for Sister Feng.At that time, I was still very novice in painting for Sister Feng, and I often ran to press Sister Feng in the middle of the journey, which resulted in the last painting taking several months.

At the same time, it also benefited from the fact that Uncle Rong carved a portrait of Lin Daiyu when he was guarding the spirit seat in the ancestral hall every day.Today, it only took an hour for Uncle Rong to draw a rough outline for Lin Daiyu. Just add some details later, and the softening of the lines is almost complete.

Xiao Daiyu stood beside Brother Rong, watching him wipe the face of the person in the painting with his fingers and silk cloth.I just felt that the hand touched my face, and my delicate little face, carved with jade, blushed inexplicably.

Lin Daiyu said: "It's getting late, Brother Rong, let's do it next time."

At this hour, Uncle Rong is indeed tired, even more tired than last night.I got up and moved around, and asked, "Auntie, are you satisfied?"

Aunt Lin nodded her head, then glanced at Brother Rong's daughter-in-law in the main room, with a slight smile on her face, and said, "Satisfied."

It was time to light the lamps, Sister Feng came over and saw a little shyness on the face of the person in the painting, she frowned unconsciously.After seeing the smile from the heart on Lin Daiyu's face, she said in relief: "It's getting late, you and Aunt Lin are going back home."
