5.83 My nephew, thank you for giving me your second sister.

There was not much to talk about at the banquet. There were two main tables and two side tables with almost no one on the stage. The ones with the highest status were him and Qiu Liang. Zhou Yang might not be able to get double digits when speaking in the audience. Most of them still said "XX please" , "Thank you for your pardon, uncle Zheng" and other polite words. Fortunately, the food was good and he enjoyed it.

This is also a portrayal of the current status of the Jia family. Even though Jia She, the orthodox heir apparent, was fifty years old, he still posted a special invitation to the banquet. No prominent figure came to the banquet. The highest status he really came to was Zhou. Yang, a "protégé", didn't even come to Fu Shi in person. He only sent his sister Fu Qiufang to the back house to congratulate him.

Qiu Liang was in a special situation. The main purpose of his coming here was just to discuss things with Zhou Yang, otherwise he wouldn't have come. After saying that, he became the background for the whole process. He said goodbye and left directly after the banquet. If Zhou Yang hadn't come, he probably would have too. Just send any son to make up the numbers; although Jia She's head table is full of military honors with inherited titles, most of them have never heard of them and have long since lost real power.

Even the younger generation of second-tier martial artists headed by Feng Ziying did not come this time. The Shi family sent someone, but two useless snacks, Shi Chun and Shi Shao from the third room, came at the same table as Zhou Yang. They didn't have the courage to speak the whole time, for fear of causing trouble to someone who would give them a "know it yourself" look when they met.

"Uncle She, please lend me a moment to speak." As soon as the banquet was over, Zhou Yang sent a few servants who came up to support Jia She. He took over and supported him and went straight to the east cross courtyard. After entering the study, he said with a smile, "My nephew I heard that my uncle has brought in a lot of antique treasures from outside these days, but I’m afraid he’s not too busy now, right?”

"Huh?" When he heard the money, Jia She, who was already drunk, immediately became energetic. "Why, nephew Zhou Xian guards the golden mountain of Xue Zihao, so he must be very well-off. I am indeed a little tight here, but my nephew has something to do." ?”

"I don't dare to deceive my uncle. My nephew is indeed in trouble." Zhou Yang smiled and bowed his hands. At the same time, he also understood that the man in front of him actually had an IQ, but his character was not good. As soon as he showed his intention, Jia She reacted, "There is no white man in the world." "Lunch." "Uncle also knows that my nephew's backyard is currently empty."

"Are you attracted to the second girl?" Jia She was obviously taken aback, "Isn't it right? You have already decided on a girl from the Xue family - huh? On the contrary, a merchant girl cannot really support the fourth-grade Gongren. "It's okay if you have other ideas. However, although the second girl is a concubine, she is still a girl from the Duke's mansion. Even if you really have ideas, I'm afraid."

"Uncle, don't worry. My nephew is here with sincerity." Zhou Yang smiled slightly and took out a stack of 3000 taels of household official tickets from his arms, "This is [-] taels, which is a little bit of gratitude; I heard that my uncle likes fans. There happened to be a man named Shi Duozi, who had dozens of folding fans handed down from his ancestors. My nephew had already asked someone to get them, as a sign of filial piety.

There's just one thing. My uncle may have misunderstood. My nephew has other arrangements in the backyard. It's His Highness Yongchang's wish. Now the second sister is serving His Highness. Originally, I just wanted to say something over there. My nephew considers that the second sister is my uncle's love after all. Women, you must greet me well no matter what, and you must not make others think you are disrespectful."

"You want the second girl to be your concubine?" Jia She, who was slumped in the recliner, suddenly sat up and his voice rose an octave, "You are really courageous! How can I, the noble girl from the Duke's palace, take someone as my concubine? You I'm afraid she is just thinking too much, not to mention that she has an official status now, how can she arrange a marriage at will?"

"Uncle, forgive me, my nephew is sincere." Zhou Yang gritted his teeth and put in another stack of banknotes, "Add another 2000 taels. If my uncle still doesn't agree, my nephew will have to go directly to His Highness Yongchang and ask her to After discussing it with the old lady, I think there is no need to consider the result. The old lady will definitely not let my nephew spend so much money."

"Well -" Jia She, who had just stood up, lay down again, "For the sake of His Highness Yongchang's face and your sincerity, I can only agree. But you must not let me down in the future. If Otherwise, I won’t let you go. Also, you just said you still have dozens of fans, right? Send them over earlier. If you dare to be late, I don’t want you to look good!”

"Um" Zhou Yang was confused. Originally, he thought he would have to increase the price again, or even do it again once, but he didn't expect that this person's "psychological price" was really only 5000 taels. As for those fans, they actually didn't cost much. Shitai Zi did Not for sale, but he was originally a descendant of a declining family, and he had a seventh-grade official donation. After someone helped run the position of county magistrate in a high-class county, they gave the fan away directly.

"Why, you dare to say more?" Jia She yelled angrily, "Have you ever been wronged by my second girl?"

"Uncle, I misunderstood. My nephew, thank you for giving me your second sister." Zhou Yang nodded quickly, pulled out two red wedding invitations from his arms, and placed them on the desk with a smile on his face, "In this case, is this matter settled? Got off?"

"Hmph!" Jia She glared at someone fiercely. Just when Zhou Yang was worried that he would take the opportunity to do something, such as temporarily adding more money, asking for a betrothal gift before getting on the sedan chair, etc., he simply picked up the calligraphy signature from the desk. After writing down his name, he even took out his personal seal and stamped it carefully. Then he picked up the banknote and put it away without hesitation, waving his hand to signal someone to get out.

Zhou Yang:.
Not to mention someone who felt deeply "insulted" but had no choice but to leave and take a lunch break in the courtyard of the VIP guest room. A moment later, the east wing of Rongxi Hall.

When we were having dinner just now, Jia Baoyu also sat at the younger table at the main table, but he could only take the turn at the bottom, near the door. He was considered the host of this table. According to the modern dining habits, here is the host. Although he would not really be allowed to serve the dishes, pour the wine, and pay the bill beforehand, he was still very drunk after a banquet.Therefore, after finally finishing his meal, he caught up with Jia She who had drunk too much and went back to rest. Jia Zheng greeted people to see them off. He finally got a chance to escape, but because Jia Zheng was seeing people off at Neiyi Gate, he thought about it and went in. He went to Rongxi Hall and hid in the east wing to rest, but he fell asleep quickly because he was so drunk.

"Hmph, although most of those people have left, there are still a few old immortals chatting with them in the front hall. I don't know when they will leave." A person who looks quite beautiful, but has a mean mouth. The enchanting young woman came in from the east side of Rongxi Hall, glanced at the still bustling front hall, and complained dissatisfiedly, "Why don't I rest first, and then go to the master to report back after they are all gone - eh, this baby bump Why are you here?"

The person who came was Qiu Tong, the maid whom Jia She accepted openly. He came over to check the situation on Jia She's order. It was probably to confirm whether the visitor had left. When he found that there were too many people and it was not suitable to show up, he went to find a place to be lazy in the courtyard of Rongxi Hall. It was just right. I saw Jia Baoyu, who was also sleeping here, and after looking at it, I had a vague idea.

"Water, someone, bring me a cup of tea." Just as she was thinking quietly, she heard that Jia Baoyu was drunk and thirsty.

"Second Master, are you thirsty?" Qiu Tong's heart moved. He leaned over and took a few glances, then quietly walked around to the front hall. When he saw no one, he brought back a tea set. He poured a cup of herbal tea and put it away. He took out a small bag from his arms and said, "The old thing didn't work, so I asked someone to get this thing. I tried it with him last time and it felt pretty good. Now I might as well give it to this baby."

"Water, come here!" Before she could finish it, she heard Jia Baoyu calling again, "Why is no one coming? Are they all dead?"

"Second Master, here we come!" Qiu Tong raised the corners of his mouth slightly, holding Jia Baoyu up with herbal tea and leaning against the bedside, "Why are you resting here? Drink water quickly."

"Well -" Jia Baoyu took a few sips first, then opened his eyes and looked at the young woman in front of him drowsily, "Who is sister? Why haven't I seen you in the yard?"

"This slave is not here to serve the Second Master. How can I see you so often?" Qiu Tong smiled proudly and drank the rest of the herbal tea for him. "Why don't you drink some tea first? After you have a rest, go back to your place and have other things. The girls serve, they are much better than my burnt roll, they are young and beautiful, the second master is really lucky."

"Sister is also very beautiful, hahaha -" There is no doubt that Jia Baoyu's problem has occurred again. Seeing the enchanting person in front of him, he can't help but start flirting habitually, "If sister comes to my yard, I will definitely treat her well." Waiting for you."

"Grrrrrr, look like you're dead!" Qiu Tong looked at Jia Baoyu, whose face was already red, and pointed his proud finger on his forehead, pushing him aside, "You are so courageous, even a slave dares to think of it, but you don't know that we Will the master beat you to death——"

"I'm willing to die for my sister." Jia Baoyu felt his body getting hotter and hotter, but the young woman in front of him became clearer and clearer. He couldn't help but pounce on her, "Are you from the uncle's yard? I'll change it tomorrow." Come here and let you serve me."

"Second Master is really good. This slave has served our master and also served Second Master Lian. I didn't expect that today I can still serve Second Master Bao." Qiu Tong smiled proudly and let Jia Baoyu throw him down without saying a word, and quietly cooperated with him. Action, "Second Master is really impatient - huh? Why did you stop? Geez, it turns out that Second Master doesn't know, and I don't know what your sisters in the yard do for food."

Nearly half an hour later
"Good sister, it turns out that this is the ultimate happiness in the world. My life was really in vain before." Jia Baoyu reluctantly let Qiu Tong hold her arms, and kept making various movements with her hands. "I don't know if I can still be with you in the future." Goodbye sister."

"My second master, you just said that you wanted to ask our master for a slave." Qiutong quietly made the condition.

"Ah, this -" Jia Baoyu's irresponsibility recurred.

Qiu Tong almost fell over in anger, and now she realized that the phoenix egg in front of her was useless compared to Jia Lian's before. Jia Lian had the courage to secretly come over to water and loosen the soil while Jia She was away, which also benefited herself. The loser didn't even have the courage to speak, and he didn't mention the benefits at all, but what's even more terrifying is...
"Bitch, I asked you to come over and take a look, and this is what you saw!"

"Master, spare your life, slave."

Snapped--
