The Concubine Wushuang of Red Mansion

Chapter 196 Daiyu: Princess Xianning is a hero among women...

Xifeng had no reason not to stay. She had already wanted to get close to Dongfu. In addition, the three gifts presented to the Holy Emperor from Ningxia were profitable, so she wanted to get a share from Jia Cong. Even if Daiyu didn't stay, she wouldn't leave, so she smiled and said, "Then I'll take advantage of brother Cong!"

Jia Cong smiled and was noncommittal. As he said, Daiyu can make the decision in this family matter.

Zijuan arranged a meal in the West Flower Hall. They were all members of the same family, and there were not many people there, so there were no separate tables for men and women. The whole family gathered around a big round table to eat.

After dinner, he moved to Ningxi Hall to sit down and have tea. Tanchun asked, "Brother Cong, I heard that you also take people to herd horses in the desert. Is this true?"

Jia Cong put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Tanchun who looked heroic with a smile on his face, nodded and said, "It's true, but my Muma and the Muma you understand are not the same thing."

Yingchun looked at Jia Cong with a pair of dull eyes. Although she had doubts in her heart, she had never been a talkative person and did not ask.

Xiangyun had always been outspoken and careless about what she said, but it was because of Jia Cong that he treated her without pretense. He opened and closed his mouth, looking at Xichun, wanting Xichun to ask questions.

Xichun, on the other hand, became much more cheerful. He chirped and asked, "Second brother, aren't you just driving the horses to graze? Is it possible that there are many kinds of herding horses?"

Daiyu couldn't help laughing and said, "Fourth sister, how could your second brother do such a thing as herding horses? He should have led his troops to fight the Tatars in the desert. To put it mildly, It’s just a desert herding horse.”

"Really?" Tan Chun is really unimaginable. The sight of a man riding a tall horse, holding a knife in his hand, rushing out of the city gate majestically and marching towards the desert. Just thinking about it makes his blood boil. .

Tan Chun's heroic eyes shone like morning stars and asked, "How many people did the second brother bring? How did he fight this battle?"

Obviously very curious, he was so excited that he called his second brother. In the original work, this was the title reserved for the second master Bao.

Jia Cong smiled and said, "At that time, Ningxia's counterinsurgency had just ended, and before they had time to clean up the battlefield, the generals and soldiers were also very tired. The Tatars gathered more than 1 people to attack the city and take advantage of it. So I used it. One move was to 'invite you into the urn', which made the Tatars think that our army was weak and allowed them to attack the city. Then another move was to close the door and beat the dogs, leaving them all behind."

Everyone was just listening to the story. Tanchun was particularly interested and asked, "The second brother imitated the Tatars and led the army to sweep the grassland after their defeat?"

Jia Cong looked at Tanchun with admiration, nodded and said, "Yes. Ningxia has experienced two wars, and the people have suffered the most. The people's livelihood is difficult and their lives are unsustainable. If they are not properly resettled, there will be a situation of refugees everywhere." , those Tatars have been coming to the pass every three days to thresh grain and grass, why can't I, Dashun, follow suit?"

When Jia Cong said this, he looked at Yingchun and saw that she was still blank. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After all, she was a direct descendant of Rong Guogong, but she had no blood in her bones. What would happen in the future? ?
When a woman leaves the court and goes to her husband's family, if she cannot stand up, her family can only look on with annoyance. In the original work, Yingchun falls into such a situation. Although the Sun family is extremely hateful, and Sun Shaozu should be cut into pieces, Yingchun himself is not the same. Responsibility should not be left to others at any time, even if you die, you will drag the other person to hell with you.

"I have never been bullied by an enemy, so I just endured it. The Tartars have repeatedly robbed the people in the border towns. As a general of Dashun, how can I not seek justice for the people?"

Perhaps Jia Cong's gaze was too aggressive. Yingchun finally realized it belatedly. She raised her head to meet Jia Cong's gaze. She was stunned for a moment. This gaze was like a shot in the arm. A little vitality was injected into her heart, which was like a dry well, and she felt a little heartbeat again.

Xiang Yun also beamed after hearing this, and she and Tan Chun were having a fight together, and said with a smile, "Third sister, brother Cong have already said that we are only being bullied for no reason, and I will fight back whoever bullies me in the future. "

"You can't listen to other words, but you listened to these words as soon as you heard them. Huh, sister Yun, haven't you bullied people enough?" Xichun tilted her little head, with a yellow bead on her head. Trembling and trembling, her little face was as bright as the morning sun.

"How could I bully you? Brother Cong is back, and you're talking about me like this just because I'm your brother?" Xiangyun raised his chin, pursed his lips, and his sparse eyebrows were filled with grievances.

Jia Cong is not worried about them quarreling. Girls quarrel with each other. After a few days, they will be like normal people again, unless they are trying to steal their sweetheart.

Jia Cong looked at Youshi and asked, "How are you doing these days, sister-in-law?"

You didn't expect that Jia Cong would ask her specifically, and she smiled with a smile on her face. She had lived at ease these years, her body was comfortable, the color was thicker, and the skin on her face without makeup was as good as snow, and her eyebrows were like thrush and her eyes were smiling attentively. , The beautiful lips are unstained and vermilion, and the smile is like a vermillion-pink peony plant swaying in the spring breeze, with an intoxicating charm of its own.

"I'm fine, everything is fine at home, but Brother Cong has lost a lot of weight in the past two months while he's been away." You's voice was soft and gentle, and her eyes swept over Jia Cong's body. When he took off his clothes, he flashed slightly and quickly took them back.

Xifeng waited for a long time. Jia Cong only drank tea and didn't ask himself. She couldn't wait any longer and said, "Brother Cong, I heard that you gave the Holy Father three gifts. I wonder what those gifts are like?"

Jia Cong sent the stove briquettes, sweaters and cans he brought back to the palace. Since it was said to be given to the emperor by the people of Ningxia Town, he would naturally not do anything stupid like withholding some of it. He would bring those things back to Ningxia , as much as you want.

Jia Cong raised his eyes from the teacup and looked at Xifeng, the concubine and fairy. On her delicately made-up face, Danfeng always flashed a bit of sharpness in her eyes when she looked at people, and even she herself didn't notice it. At this time, as if He looked at Jia Cong like a hook. If he had a slightly evil intention, he might have followed in Jia Rui's footsteps.

Jia Cong calmly put down the tea cup and asked, "Second sister-in-law Lian is asking, why do you want to do this business with me?"

Hitting the nail on the head, Xifeng stopped covering up and said, "We are all of the same family, isn't it? How many times will your second brother not talk about you at home one day? I'm afraid that you won't be able to eat well, sleep well outside, and will have to fight. So what if you help him with such an errand? Do you have many brothers? "

After Xifeng finished speaking, she glanced at Jia Cong with a strange look. Danfeng's eyes were shining brightly and full of amorous feelings, which really had the power to seduce the soul.

"This is all a matter for men. If second brother Lian has any thoughts, let him tell me. My brothers are not outsiders, so why do we need second sister-in-law Lian to pass the message in between?" Jia Cong glanced sideways at Xifeng, Ignore her emotional flow.

Xifeng was so angry that she fell back. When she raised her eyes, she saw the teasing and sarcastic look on You's face. She felt depressed and wanted to stab her a few times, but because Jia Cong was there, she didn't dare.

Jia Cong asked Daiyu, "How is the back garden going?"

"The guy named Shan Ziye sent us a drawing. According to this method, we don't have enough space at the back and we have to occupy the left and right. But if we change the drawing again, it will be too small. It’s not interesting, so I just said, practice half of it first, and then decide after you come back.”

"Well, let's fix half of it first and wait for the rest later."

After Jia Cong finished speaking, Yinglian came in and said that Jia Ping and others were waiting for the Marquis. They wanted to pay their respects to the Marquis, and they also had to wait for the Marquis' instructions on some matters.

Jia Cong then stood up and said to Daiyu and everyone, "You guys sit down for a while, I'll go first."

He was away from home all day long, and his family affairs were supported by a few old servants, so he wanted to see him first.

Xifeng was anxious to go back and reply to Jia Mu. She sat down and said a few compliments to Daiyu, then got up and left. The cook came up and asked about tonight's dishes. Seeing that Daiyu was a little tired, You said she would go over and have a look. .

Several girls went out to play hand in hand, leaving Daiyu alone in Ningxi Hall.

She thought of the clothes Jia Cong was wearing, and her face turned red with embarrassment. Zijuan saw it from the side and knew what the girl was thinking, so she smiled and said, "Who would have thought that Mr. Hou has grown so tall, and Madam has not." I thought about it."

"Why don't you quickly get some clothes and put them on for him? You're still talking here." Daiyu stroked her face, which was slightly feverish. Her husband was wearing such clothes. Wasn't it her shame?

"I'm not going. The Marquis was only willing to change those clothes if I had to ask my wife to go. Previously, Qingwen wanted to help the Marquis change into another one, but I heard that she was scolded. Now she is There were tears in the room!"

Daiyu asked in confusion, "What's going on with all this time?"

Zijuan smiled and said, "Our master has no intention of wronging my wife at all. Miss Yun is a guest, so I got a few insults from him. Fortunately, Miss Yun is a cheerful person and doesn't care about it. Qingwen has been with me for a long time. The waiter around Mr. Liao said today that since the wife arranged for him to wear the clothes, he would wear them even if they were tattered. He said that as long as he entered this house, it was the wife who had the final say. This is because Qingwen made her own decision. Woolen cloth."

Daiyu has always known Qingwen's thoughts. Seeing that she is getting older, her thoughts are becoming more and more obvious. Especially Zicuckoo has taken the lead. She originally planned to seize this opportunity today, but who knows, Brother Cong will not cooperate with her. .

In fact, she didn't care about the worries of the maids. The personal maid was originally prepared to be his aunt, and she couldn't serve him now. So what's the big deal if a few maids came forward?
"She has always been arrogant, and she was the first to come out of the old lady's house. Maybe she is angry with me, or she thinks I am blocking her. Who do I care about this? I don't know he is a What’s on your mind, I’ll ask you later!”

If she were an ordinary woman, she would never ask about such a thing, but Daiyu is a very affectionate person. Thinking that she and Jia Cong are in the same mind, it would be better to ask her if she has anything to say, instead of keeping it in her heart. .

"Madam is really confused, why are you asking about such a thing! How obvious it is that the Marquis made it clear that everything in this house is the final say of the Madam. I would say that the Marquis has the Madam at the forefront of his mind. The last time I served the Marquis, it was not for any other reason, but because the lady asked me to serve, and the Marquis did not refuse."

Zicuckoo is indeed a smart person. She thought for a while and said, "The Marquis is the one who leads the army in the war, and he values ​​rules the most. The wife must have the final say in matters in the backyard."

Daiyu bit her lip gently, her nose feeling a little sore. She had been so respected and loved by him in this life, and even if she died for him, it was worth it!As he was sitting and thinking, he heard the sound of familiar footsteps outside. Zicuckoo went over first and raised the curtain, and sure enough he saw Jia Cong coming in.

"Why are the circles under your eyes red? What happened?" Jia Cong took Daiyu's hand and asked, his eyebrows darkened, as if someone had bullied Daiyu and he was about to eat someone.

"No, I just miss you a little!" Daiyu threw herself into his arms and hugged his waist tightly, her voice buzzing, "Why are you back so soon?"

"There's nothing wrong. You've pretty much taken care of the family affairs. There are a few big things that I need to make decisions about. I still remember that the loom that Jiang Ning made over there is said to be a big deal. If you want to invest in it, I still want to do this. Enter the palace and explain to the emperor..."

Jia Cong put his arms around Daiyu, looked down at her and listened attentively, then picked her up and carried her into the second room. He sat down on the kang, leaned on the pillow, took her into his arms, and continued, "Then there are clan matters. , my foundation is shallow, and there is always no one available at critical moments. They say that a hero has three gangs, and a fence has three stakes. This will not work in the long run.

Furthermore, if you want your family to prosper, you can't support it alone, so you have to recruit people from the clan. When you interact with the women in the clan, you can also help me look at their character. I think, in general, the character of the mother is okay, but the character of the son is not. Not too far apart. "

"Well, I remember that last time the fifth sister-in-law came over from the West Corridor, Brother Cong also met her once. Later, she came two more times to talk to me. I saw that she was not smooth and smart. Later, I heard Ping Ping Uncle said, Yun'er is also an honest person, why don't Brother Cong meet him?"

The Uncle Ping Daiyu mentioned refers to Jia Ping.

"I want to see you. Uncle Ping also mentioned it today. Even one or two people are not enough. We still have to train all the people and select the best ones. The Jia family is in the eighth house in Beijing, and there are always some useful talents. Before I went on the expedition, Jiao Uncle Jiao sent a few people to our army, and this time some people have made great achievements, and some have raised the Hundred Flags. Uncle Jiao was very happy just now, I said to train a few more people, they will be needed in the future."

It is easy to promote and win over generals from the army, but it is a bit difficult to handle civil servants. This cannot be done in three or two days.

Fortunately, he still has enough time.

Besides, his father-in-law can still count on one or two, and his husband also has many students.

The couple talked for a while, and Jia Cong took Daiyu inside, put her pillow on his chest, and told her something important, "Today at the celebration banquet, the emperor asked me about the reward. , I have been a Marquis for less than a year, so I cannot be promoted to a higher title, and there cannot be any suspicion. The best way is to make the palace trust me without any suspicion."

When Daiyu heard this, she knew the important point was coming. She looked at Jia Cong nervously with her eyes open. Although she knew that he would not let her down, she still felt a little uneasy in her heart.

"Yu'er must have heard about my senior sister?" Jia Cong looked down at Daiyu and met her bright eyes under her smoky eyebrows. He couldn't help but lower his head and place a kiss on her lips. Although it was shallow, it was affectionate. deep.

"Princess Xianning is a hero among women. I have always admired her."

"You don't have to admire me. In my eyes, Yu'er is a fairy-like person in the world, and she is also unique. In terms of rank, you are now Mrs. Hou, no lower than her. In terms of status, you are my first wife. , even in the future...you and her will never be in conflict with each other...

If it weren't for her, I really don't know what I would have experienced there. To me, she is different from others after all. "

Daiyu felt relieved, and she hugged Jia Cong's waist tightly. She had witnessed that scene with her own eyes, and she could only feel sorry for Jia Cong.

"If the palace wants you to marry her, just agree, I don't care about this!" Daiyu raised her head and looked at Jia Cong, her shy red lips pursed, as if she mustered up a lot of courage, "I care What, you know!”

What she cares about is Brother Cong!
Jia Cong smiled, gently pinched the tip of Daiyu's small nose, and said, "Brother Cong will teach you another trick today. If a person really cares about you, he will definitely not take away the things you need to live and settle down, such as reputation, fame, and fame." Life and health. If you don’t have your imperial edict, who will still respect you?

Don't worry, I will neither wrong Senior Sister because of you, nor will I wrong you because of Senior Sister.You are my first wife, and it is a matter of honor and disgrace for me. To wrong you is to lose my face, and I will definitely not allow this to happen. "

"Brother Ke Cong, you are more important to me than anything else!" Daiyu's heart was half happy and half sad. What she didn't say was that you are more important than my life.

"I know that you and I are one husband and wife, we live and die together, we share honor and disgrace, don't think about anything else."

Jia Cong hugs his beloved wife, but he doesn't know that, given Daiyu's nature, if something unexpected happens to him in the future, Daiyu will definitely accompany him and will never let him walk alone.

"Well, I don't want to. I'm too young now, and I can't do anything with my status as your wife. It would be just right for you to marry her!" Daiyu's brows were furrowed, her soft red lips pursed softly, Showing a bit of the cuteness of a little daughter.

Jia Cong couldn't help but smile and pecked her red lips, "I'm only one year older than you! Senior sister has already grown hair. Although she's old enough, in terms of having children, it's still too early. How about we make an agreement that we will have children when we are over [-], okay?"

"Why?" Daiyu was delighted. She actually didn't care about this.

Jia Cong discussed this issue purely from a scientific point of view. Taking advantage of An Daiyu's heart, he gently stroked Daiyu's lips with his fingertips, as delicate as petals, and said, "I want your bones to grow stronger. As for Senior sister, the prince has no children, and if he has children in the future, he will inherit the legacy there."

Before Jia Cong finished speaking, tears welled up in Daiyu's eyes, and her lips trembled slightly, "How could they... bully people like this?"

Is this asking Brother Cong to marry into his wife? Is this so humiliating?
Jia Cong was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Daiyu to react so strongly. Shouldn't she be happy?

In later generations, the couple gave birth to two children, one taking the mother's surname and the other taking the father's surname. What a common thing!
"Fool, what's the point? Why don't you help me have more babies in the future?"

Jia Cong enjoyed the feeling of being hurt so much that he felt deep in his heart. He lowered his head and gently kissed away Daiyu's tears. Gradually, the breath became heavier, flowing from his cheeks to his lips, all the way down.

The clothes in summer were already thinner, and Jia Cong's skillful hands were quick to untie them. After a while, Daiyu gasped slightly and could not care about what she had just said. She asked intermittently, "Do you want..." Let Zicuckoo come in and serve you?"

She couldn't take it anymore.

Outside, Zicuckoo trembled after hearing this. She couldn't help but glance out the window. The sun was still so high!
"You still have the heart to think about this?" Jia Cong couldn't help but laugh. With a slight movement, Daiyu's delicate body trembled, and the revealing eyes under Su Yan's eyebrows had narrowed into a line. He put his hands over Jia Cong's shoulders and pulled out a handful of black hair. , dragged on Jia Cong's chest.

……

In Lixiang Courtyard, Xue Pan drank too much and lay on the kang like a dead pig, moaning and groaning.

Aunt Xue and Baochai came in from outside holding hands. Aunt Xue couldn't help but cursed when she heard a noise from far away, "Where did you drink yellow soup from again?"

Just now, Xifeng came back from Dongfu alone after a banquet. As soon as she told Jia Cong what she said, Jia's mother became unhappy. Aunt Xue and Baochai couldn't stay any longer, and they didn't even eat. Just came back.

"Mom, sister!" Xue Pan raised his head from the kang and looked at his mother and sister with drunken eyes. "I'm happy today. My cousin Cong is going to be successful. I'm happy, so I drank a few more drinks."

When Xue Pan talked about Jia Cong, he was so excited that he turned over and almost fell off the kang. He called Zhang Dehui and said, "Go and get two fresh sturgeons and a Siamese pig that is scented with Lingcypress and sent by Siam. I want a treat!”

Smelling the incense smell of alcohol, Baochai frowned and asked displeasedly, "Who does brother want to invite?"

"Brother Cong, please!" Xue Pan struggled to get up, and the mother and daughter hurriedly stepped forward to help him. Aunt Xue was so angry that she waved her handkerchief over his shoulder, "You invited him to come? You still want to come?" Haven't you been hurt enough by him? If you come closer to him, who does he think you are?"

Aunt Xue was not only resentful towards Jia Cong. Today, Sister Feng personally went to Dongfu to invite the couple over. Didn't she end up saying "tired" and "another day"?

"I have to invite you!" Xue Pan said that he was drunk, and he was not drunk, but just drank a few more drinks and went crazy. "Mom doesn't know. Today I saw Brother Cong on Qianmen Street. He was so majestic. , the soldiers he leads, I heard from Brother Ruolan and Brother Ziying, that he is the first among the generals in the dynasty. It will be a matter of time in the future to be crowned king and prime minister. Mom, tell me, can I not invite them? "

The key is that Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan are still waiting for him to finish the game. After inviting Jia Cong, they will be brought along with them. As long as he and Jia Cong have a relationship, in the future, in this sacred city, no matter how disrespectful he is, Boss Xue ?

　I took a look and found that although I only updated once a day, I was basically on the combat power list. Compared to other people's two updates, I actually had more words.

　　The company laid off employees before, but unfortunately I was not laid off. My work became more and more and my salary became less and less. I am currently fighting to be laid off. I will try my best to update as soon as this matter is over.

　　In fact, I'm not very comfortable writing this, and I don't dare to update it more for fear of it crashing.
