Brother Rong of Red Mansion

Chapter 77 Jia Zhen died of illness

After seeing off the guests, the most important "banquet guests" of Jia Rong's wedding is over.

Next, just wait for Qin Keqing to "come back".

Returning home is the last step in the wedding ceremony. It is a relatively grand ceremony for the couple to go home to visit relatives. According to different local customs, the return time is also different. Some are three days after the wedding, some are on the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and so on.

And Qin Keqing chose the seventh day.

******
  After banqueting the guests, Jia Rong took some time off, working every morning and riding out of the city to shoot arrows in the afternoon. In the morning and evening, they also practice the "Eight Parts of Vajra Gong", draw the bow, dance the sword, and lift the stone lock to develop their strength.

Gradually, Jia Rong became stronger and could draw a 16-force stiff bow. The accuracy of armored infantry and armored cavalry archery is getting higher and higher.

But Jia Rong was not satisfied, so he hired a martial artist to teach him melee combat skills.

After practicing for two days, I had a simple understanding of eighteen kinds of weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds. Jia Rong invited another general of the Forbidden Army to teach him the fighting skills in battle formation.

In particular, Jia Rong was sorting out Jia Zhen's internal and external study and discovered a set of "Ningwu Strategies" left by the ancestors of Ning State. It contains detailed descriptions of the first-generation ancestor Jia Yan's experience of more than a hundred battles, including maps, enemy attack strategies, proportions of weapons and food, and Jia Yan's thoughts.

In addition to fighting in battle formations, there are also methods of camping, marching, infantry, and cavalry.

There are ink marks inside, which are the comments of the second generation Jia Daihua and the third generation Jia Jing. Even Jia Zhen tried to criticize a few sentences between the lines.

This set of books is very thick, with more than ten volumes.

In addition to the battle experience of the first generation Jia Yan, the battle experience of the second generation Jia Daihua was also recorded. It seems to be imitating Jia Yan's diary writing. I want to pass on the Ningguo Mansion in this way.

"Baby, this is the real baby!"

After checking out this series of books, Jia Rong felt like he had found a treasure. Because this is the real "inheritance" of Ningguo Mansion. As long as he thoroughly understands the contents of the book, Jia Rong will become a "qualified" young general.

In particular, "Ningwu Strategy" also records archery training skills and battle formation skills of various weapons.

"If I had known about this series of books, I wouldn't have secretly learned the archery methods of Niu Junjie and Feng Ziying. I have mines at home."

But unlike Niu Junjie and Feng Ziying's family, there is no elder in Ningguo Mansion to lead Jia Rong's studies.

Otherwise, Jia Rong's learning style will be more orthodox and his understanding will be faster.

Therefore, he could only invite "famous teachers".

Jia Rong was fascinated by reading "Ningwu Strategy" every day. I just feel that as time goes by, the skills he has mastered are becoming more and more proficient, and both theoretical knowledge and practical experience have made leaps and bounds.

Gradually, his breath became calmer, and his brows revealed a high-spirited spirit.

  In the early morning of this day, Jia Rong woke up from the brocade tent and was served by Ruizhu to wash up and change clothes. In the small courtyard, facing the rising sun in the east, he finished practicing the "Eight Parts of Vajra Kung Fu", lifting stone locks, dancing with the sword, and pulling the sword. A set of traditional movements to "train muscles and bones" such as hard bows.

Then, he went back to the house to take a bath, changed his clothes and went to wake up Jia Zhenyou.

Over the past few days, Jia Zhen has become more and more haggard, emaciated, and unable to breathe out.

"It's just a few days."

Wang Jiren checked her pulse again and issued a "critical illness notice" to Jia Zhen, asking Jia Rong to prepare for the funeral.

It’s time to prepare for the funeral again…

Is there anything else besides this sentence?
  I've been preparing for several days. The key is that the wedding is over, why isn't the old guy still dead?
  Jia Rong secretly cursed in her heart, but on the surface she sighed, squeezed out a few crocodile tears, and asked Dr. Wang to continue her rejuvenation and think of a solution.

Then, send Wang Jiren away.

After seeing Wang Jiren off, Jia Rong served a meal, and then prepared to lead Qin Keqing "back home".

At this moment, outside the gate of Ningguo Mansion, in addition to a red wheel covered car that Jia Rong and his wife were riding in, there were also several cars prepared as a "returning gift" for Jia Rong and his wife.

Not long after Qin Keqing left the house, there were boys from the Ning Mansion who "cleaned the street" and drove away the pedestrians and people on Ningrong Street. They also put up a beautiful screen to surround it, blocking the sight of others. In this way, Qin Keqing stepped on a brocade stool and got into the sedan with gentle steps.

The same is true for Jia Rong.

Then, Jia Rong and his wife rode in a sedan chair, and dozens of servants, women, and girls from the Ning Mansion spread out on both sides and headed toward the Qin Mansion in Chongpingfang.

******
  Chongpingfang, Qin Mansion.

From a distance, a disciple saw a group of people from the Ning Mansion and reported the news to the Qin Mansion.

"The young lady and my uncle have gone home to peace."

Immediately afterwards, Qin Ye and his son led their servants out of the house to greet him. When they saw the Ningfu motorcade from a distance, they couldn't help crying with joy.

The water thrown by the married girl.

From now on, Qin Keqing will be the daughter-in-law of Ning Guofu and no longer the daughter of the Qin family. How many times can we go home to visit relatives in such a generous and grand manner?
  After a while, the Ningguo Mansion motorcade arrived in front of the Qin Mansion.

The servants of the Qin Mansion also drove away passers-by and put up a brocade screen to hide the sight of others.

Then, Jia Rong got out of the car first, and then reached out to lead Qin Keqing out of the car. The two played the piano and sang in harmony, and there was happiness in each other's eyes.

When Qin Ye and his son saw their daughter (sister) with her hair in a high bun and dressed like a woman, they couldn't help but shed tears and hurriedly came to greet her.

"My daughter greets her father."

After not seeing each other for a few days, Qin Keqing saw Qin Ye and his son. Their noses were sore and their eyes were red. They couldn't help but choke and cry, and they hurriedly saluted and said hello.

"Get up, get up."

Qin Ye helped Qin Keqing up, and Qin Keqing touched Qin Zhong's head again, with a loving expression on his face, and gave a few simple compliments. Then it was Jia Rong's turn to salute and say hello.

"My son-in-law has met Lao Taishan."

Jia Rong gave Qin Ye a deep bow.

Returning home today is also the etiquette for a son-in-law to visit his parents-in-law. When I met Qin Ye and his wife in the past, they only had to bow their hands. Today, I have to bow deeply and for a long time, showing the respectful posture of a junior.

Of course, etiquette is etiquette.

Qin Ye didn't dare to trust him.

Seeing Jia Rong salute him, he nodded with a smile and invited Jia Rong and his wife in. "Come in quickly, your mother has been waiting in the back hall."

Jia Rong and his wife entered the Qin Mansion mansion, while Sun Rui and other young men met with the Qin Mansion housekeeper. Take down the "returning gifts" from the sedan behind you one by one and move them to the Qin Mansion.

At this time, Jia Rong and his wife entered the back house early and met their mother-in-law in the hall.

When mother and daughter met, they choked with tears, hugged each other and cried, as if they were parting from each other. Qin Ye's father and son, Jia Rong, and all the girls all comforted each other warmly, and then the mother and daughter were persuaded.

Then, everyone took their seats in the hall and talked to each other about common things. We chatted for a long time. Everyone just dispersed. Qin Keqing stayed in the back house to talk to her mother. Jia Rong went to the front hall to talk with Qin Ye and his son.

At noon, another table was set up in the back hall, eating, drinking, talking and laughing, it was so lively.

Just in the afternoon, Jia Rong and Qin Ye were playing chess in the study, drinking tea and talking about things, when suddenly a book boy reported: "Master, a servant of the Ning Mansion has something urgent and wants to see my uncle."

In an instant, Jia Rong and Qin Ye were stunned, and quickly said: "Quickly pass."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Rui entered the study room and saw Jia Rong sitting cross-legged on the kang. He suddenly knelt down and cried with sadness on his face: "Master, master, he... wu wu wu... is dead!" "

As soon as these words came out, the study became completely silent.
