dream of red mansion

Chapter 6
The lucky boat was driving on the vast ancient canal, but it approached the capital in just twenty days.

The journey along the way was not considered a fast trip, but it allowed Jia Qing, a modern person who is used to seeing black water and foggy days, to see what green water and green mountains are.He was so excited that he calmed down until he was told that he was going to the capital soon.

On the way, he also thought it over clearly. No matter what the reason was for Jia Qing to fall to the south of the Yangtze River, there are only a few situations: [-]. His father doesn't like him (or his mother); [-]. I am suffering from a serious disease or have made a big mistake; three, fighting in the house.

The second situation can basically be ruled out. He knows that his body is still very healthy, he can run and jump, and he is only a little older, so he will not make a big mistake and be kicked out of the house.As for whether Dad likes him or not, he will know when he returns to Beijing.If it is the third situation, it is the least optimistic. It proves that it may be dangerous to go back, and you need to be extremely careful.

So he made up his mind: go back and be a good baby first, don't explode!
Wait until you find out the way and then slowly map it.

When the boat docked, the servants who had gone back in the small fast boat had already prepared the sedan chair.Jia Qing and Cui Liu went back to Ningguo Mansion together in a sedan chair.Originally Cui Liu could not ride in the same sedan chair with Jia Qing, but Jia Qing is too young and needs someone to take care of her, so it makes sense.

When the sedan chair entered Ningrong Street and entered Ningguo Mansion through the corner gate, someone had already been waiting there to report: the master is waiting in the study, and asked Mr. Lai to take Miss Cui Liu and others directly there.

The sedan chair moves slowly in the front yard. The ancient mansions are generally divided into two parts, the front yard and the back house. The only way to separate them is the second gate, also called the vertical flower gate.For a super mansion like Ningguo Mansion, the front yard is divided into three or four courtyards, and the back house is divided into more large and small courtyards.Before reaching the second gate, Jia Qing and Cui Liu got off the sedan chair, and Lai Sheng led them into the study.

Jia Jing's study room is very spacious, the door is to the left, and the shelf directly opposite is full of books.In addition, there is a bookshelf on the right side, forming a ninety-degree angle with it.There is a small door behind the bookshelf, and it is estimated that it can lead to the second door.

At this time, a man about 50 years old was sitting in the hall, with a small beard and white hair on his temples, staring straight at Jia Qing, and the scrutiny in his eyes was gradually replaced by care.

"Slave Lai Sheng has seen the master, and he has already brought him."

"Servant Cui Liu has seen the master."

"The child has seen his father."

With a hum, Jia Jing ordered Lai Sheng to take Jia Qing down to meet Jia Zhen, Youshi and the others, leaving only Cui Liu in the study, and he needed to find out more about the situation.

When there were only the two of them left in the room, the atmosphere was somewhat dull, and then Jia Jing said, "Sit down and talk."

After thanking her, Cui Liu took the last seat.

"I want to know what happened back then, how did Qingqing die?"

Lai Sheng led Jia Qing out of the study, walked along the corridor and eaves of the study, to the Chuihua Gate, and then led by Lai Sheng's family into the back house.As a servant of a male family, Lai Sheng is not allowed to enter the inner house easily.

Lai Sheng's family brought Jia Qing to Jia Zhen's residence. At this time, Jia Zhen, You Shi and Jia Rong were all in the main hall.Jia Rong is only twelve or thirteen years old now, so Qin Keqing, who has an enchanting figure, with the plumpness of Baochai and the softness of Daiyu, is naturally not here.

And there was originally a younger sister, the daughter left behind by the ex-wife's dystocia, who is also a famous figure in the Red Mansion, one of the four springs, Xiao Xichun.It's a pity that she lost her mother when she was young. Mother Jia took pity on her and took her to her to raise her.

Jia Zhen is a man in his early thirties, and at this time he is also curiously looking at this younger brother who appeared out of nowhere.It was only yesterday that he heard from his father that his younger brother, who had been away for a long time, would come back tonight, and asked him to make arrangements for his husband and wife.

You Shi is Jia Zhen who just took over the house two years ago, and he is not yet 20 years old this year.His first wife died, and Jia Rong was still young. Because he liked the small family of You's family, he didn't dare to be arrogant after entering the door. He must take care of Jia Rong with all his heart and discipline himself.

This Youshi was born with a good appearance: white as snow, slightly plump body, gentle face, very amiable.She enthusiastically stepped forward and pulled Jia Qing to her seat.After Jia Qing met Li under the guidance of Lai Sheng's family, Jia Zhen asked, "Where does my brother come from?"

"Big brother, I'm from Yangzhou."

Youshi asked softly, "How old are you this year?"

Jia Qing replied: "Three years old." He said with a sweet smile on his face.It's shameful to be cute, but who said that the girl in front of me is a big beauty, or his sister-in-law
Youshi was hit by his cute selling skills, and the smile on his face became more and more charming.At this time, Jia Zhen said again: "What can my father tell you?"

The smiling face immediately put away, and said seriously: "No."

Do not reply a word.

Jia Zhen felt that this younger brother was not as enthusiastic about him as he was about You Shi, and she didn't bother to argue with a little boy at the moment.He just lost the intention of asking, and said: "Since that's the case, I'll give you a courtyard near the Tianxiang Building on the west side of the mansion. There are all women and maids in the courtyard. If you have any inappropriate things in the future, you can come to me. Well, do you think it is good?" Although he felt that he would not understand the three-year-old, he still finished his words to save face.

"Everything is under the arrangement of big brother."

After thinking for a while, Jia Zhen said: "I don't think you have a capable maid to serve you, so how about it, I'll transfer the one I need in my room to you."

"No big brother, my mother's maid has been taking care of me, and I'm not used to other people coming, so I don't dare to bother big brother." Are you kidding me, who in your room dares to ask for it, who knows if it's your misfortune If the person with the background is mainly the person next to you, that's about the same, but unfortunately he dared not say it.

Seeing that this kid doesn't know how to play, and he doesn't bother to bother with it, he can't bear to part with the darlings in his house.

After the meeting, when it was almost done, he asked Lai Sheng's family to take Jia Qing to his own yard.

The courtyard was quiet, and the orders of Lai Sheng's family called the servants who belonged to this courtyard, and concentrated on giving some orders.It's nothing more than: This is your new master, don't be negligent, and what to do if something goes wrong.
Finally, Lai Sheng's family left, and the maids and mothers-in-law also dispersed. Jia Qing felt that the world was finally quiet.

When I arrived at my future bedroom, I looked at the carved beams and painted buildings in the room, the crystal clear decorations, and thought that there were seven or eight maids and women in the yard for me to drive. This is the rich and noble life I dreamed of. Young master is good.

What he didn't know was that if it wasn't for his special circumstances, and Jia Jing personally ordered him, how could he be in such a good yard, and he didn't even look at Jia Huan's treatment in the original book, which was originally left by Jia Zhen to Jia Rong yard.

Huh?Why hasn't Aunt Liu come back yet? Jia Qing got bored after waiting for a while.He guessed that his father and Aunt Liu were mostly talking about his mother, but the trouble was that they kept everything from him.In fact, he also thought, if his mother was killed, should he avenge her? What if the enemy is Jia Jing?
Hey, it's hard!Why is it so difficult to have a good day for two days?It’s better to know the truth later, just to have fun for a few years. Most of the stories of the Red Mansion haven’t started yet, and he doesn’t want to keep on fighting mode.
By the way, I don’t know how old Big Face is now, how long will Sister Lin come to Beijing, how long will Jia Jing be a monk?
"I have to prepare well, at least not until the story happens. I don't even have the qualifications to be a melon-eating audience. Isn't that too tragic? Didn't I come to this life for nothing?" Jia Qing thought. , I was planning this beautiful blueprint for the future in my heart, and gradually fell asleep.

After a day of socializing, he is indeed tired
　Two issues need to be explained: one is Xichun, the original book says she is Jia Zhen's younger sister, but the younger sister I understand is a compatriot of the same mother.Of course, it is controversial that Jia Xichun was born a concubine, which is not discussed in this article; the second is Jia Qiang, the original book only says that he is a decent great-great-grandson.Some people say that he is the concubine of Jia Zhen. For this explanation, it is better to say that he is Jia Jing's second-bedroom grandson. This is not written here. I have other arrangements, so I won't show it for the time being.
