Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 55 Various gifts
  "Third brother, we brought the meat with good intentions this time, but we can't return empty-handed." Jia Huan said with a smile.

"What do you want to do?"

"Get two more pieces of jewelry from Brother Rong's daughter-in-law. She has a lot of good stuff. I saw it last time." Jia Huan said with a sly smile.

"I want you to do it, but I don't have the ability." Jia Cong said angrily.

"Hey, come on, third brother. She and I are not familiar with each other. It's better for you to get closer to her and go do it alone. I guarantee you'll be sure of it."

Jia Cong was shocked and whispered: "How do you know she is close to me?"

Seeing his serious expression, Jia Huan was also startled. He looked around and whispered: "You are not close to her. How could she lend you jewelry last time? My mother said that you can borrow money these days. They’re all iron.”

Jia Cong took a breath and said, "Have you told anyone else about this?" After all calculations, Jia Huan never expected that there was a flaw here.

"No." Jia Huan shook his head.

Jia Cong breathed a sigh of relief and said solemnly: "Don't tell anyone about this, otherwise I will never recognize you as my brother again."

"Don't worry, third brother, I promise not to tell." Jia Huan nodded quickly and added: "Even if someone gives me more money, I won't tell."

Jia Cong smiled bitterly, it seems you betrayed me a lot.

This time Jia Cong learned the lesson wisely and sent Jia Huan away from a distance before coming to Jia Rong's yard.

For the past two days, Jia Rong has been taking care of Jia Zhen's funeral affairs in front of him. He has been busy with his feet on the ground, and all the servant girls have been transferred. At this moment, the yard is almost empty.

Jia Cong walked into Qin Keqing's room by familiar means. He was relieved to see that only Baozhu and Ruizhu, two confidant maids, were waiting on him.

"Hurry up and show Uncle Cong your seat." Qin Keqing greeted Jia Cong hurriedly when he saw him coming in.

Jia Cong sat in front of her bed and saw that her complexion was indeed much better. It seemed that if Jia Zhen was removed, her heart disease would naturally be cured without medicine.

"Baozhu Ruizhu, you go out and wait on me."

Seeing no one else around, Qin Keqing hurriedly got up, knelt on the bed and prostrated, crying: "My nephew and wife thanked my uncle for his kindness in rebirth."

"Hey, what are you doing? I don't want this." Jia Cong hurriedly stopped her, his eyes accidentally slipped from the collar of her drooping coat, and he was stunned by the endless spring scenery.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Qin Keqing looked up and found that Jia Cong was staring blankly at her chest. He hurriedly covered his clothes and said coquettishly: "Uncle."

Ah, cough, cough, Jia Cong saw that he was exposed and said hurriedly: "But please don't misunderstand me, my uncle is a serious person, he just happened to think of two lines of poetry."

Qin Keqing smiled like a hundred flowers blooming, charming and charming, and said with a smile: "Keqing has always admired my uncle's poetic talent. If he has good poems, I will not pursue his rude behavior just now."

"Listen, I was born into a fairy cave with infinite scenery on a dangerous peak. How about it?"

Qin Keqing pondered for a moment, and didn't know what he thought of. His face suddenly turned red, like a burning cloud, spreading straight to his beautiful neck. He couldn't help biting his lips and spat: "Uncle is so unserious! How...how can you write such an obscene poem?" I’m not afraid of people laughing at me when I go out.”

Jia Cong hurriedly yelled: "My dear, you are also an official lady who is familiar with poetry. These two lines of poetry cannot be more pure. Don't think wrongly."

Bah, Qin Keqing spat, feeling that her whole body was hot, and she hurriedly covered her face, feeling a little cool, and said angrily: "It's true, but uncle came to quibble. Do you think I don't understand the village dialects such as Xianren Cave and Xianfeng? ?" He was so embarrassed that he quickly pulled the quilt over him to avoid being peeked at again.

Jia Cong smiled bitterly: "But dear, I'm still a child, please don't teach me bad things, okay?"

Qin Keqing rolled her eyes at him shyly. Does the child know how to take someone else's handkerchief and peek...where?

Seeing that he could no longer talk, Jia Cong hurriedly left: "Ke Qing, I brought you some tiger meat. You can eat more to replenish your vitality. Well, by the way, you have to lie down for a few more days to wait for this incident. After that, get better again, so as not to arouse people's suspicion. I'm leaving first."

"Uncle, stay here." Qin Keqing hurriedly stopped him, pulled out a small flat box from under the pillow, handed it to Jia Cong and said, "I asked the accountant to prepare this. Now that my uncle has received the title, he has the right to give it as a congratulatory gift, and he is not afraid of people." Know."

Jia Cong's eyes lit up. He took it and looked at it, but it was a stack of banknotes, totaling 1000 taels. He couldn't help but laugh and said: "My parents gave birth to me, and they know me well. Now I want to raise soldiers, and I need money."

Qin Keqing's heart skipped a beat. Did his uncle say that I was his confidant? I couldn't help but feel something strange in my heart. When I came back to my senses, Jia Cong had already disappeared. Humph, why are you leaving in such a hurry? I'm not a man-eating tiger.

Suddenly thinking that Jia Cong now has the power to fight tigers, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. Even if he was a tigress, he would still be subdued by his uncle. He suddenly felt that his eyes were weak and he hurriedly hid under the quilt, as if he wanted to avoid something embarrassing. idea.

  In the evening, Jia Cong finished practicing his martial arts, changed his clothes, and went to Rongqing Hall following Amber who came to treat him.

Now that she has seen Jia Cong's cruelty and the title he carries, Hu Bo no longer dares to be rude to him, and leads the way cautiously. Thinking of the festival between herself and Jia Cong, she is afraid that he will hold a grudge, and apologizes anxiously. : "Mr. Cong, I have offended you a lot that day. Your Excellency, you don't remember the faults of others, so just let me go." Jia Cong no longer took the little friction to heart, but he saw Hu Hu's slim figure and youthful vitality. , although she is not as beautiful as Qingwen, she can still be regarded as a high-quality beautiful girl, based on the principle of not taking advantage of the bastard.

Pretending to be reserved, he said: "You know, I am the most humble servant who has to know his superiority. Since you sincerely regret, I won't be harsh on you. If you want me to spare you, that's easy, as long as..."

Hu Hue hurriedly said: "Master Cong, just give me your orders. I will just do as you please."

Jia Cong chuckled, leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

Ah, this! Amber was stunned for a moment, looked at Jia Cong, then looked at no one around, then gritted his teeth, nodded with a blushing face, turned his back, and slightly raised his round and plump buttocks.

Snapped! Jia Cong stretched out his hand and patted it gently, then grabbed a handful. Well, the flesh was thick and elastic.

Amber couldn't help but exhale softly. Seeing Jia Cong's weird look, she didn't know that she had been fooled. She stamped her feet and said: "Master, you are bullying me."

Jia Cong paid no attention to her. He laughed and left long ago.

Amber hurriedly followed, biting her lip and thinking, even though she had been taken advantage of, she had finally resolved the resentment in Mr. Cong's heart, and he was not at a disadvantage. What's more, Mr. Cong had already been reborn, and he didn't seem to be that bad even if he took advantage of him. Uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but pinch myself, little hooves, are you feeling springy? What is Mr. Cong’s identity? Why does he like you so much?

In Rongqing Hall
  Two sumptuous banquets have been set up, and everyone is present except Jia She and his wife, who are shameless, and Jia Lian and his wife, who are not free.

Seeing Jia Cong coming in, they all smiled and sent congratulatory gifts.

Jia Baoyu gave a fan, Tanchun gave a pair of calligraphy, Li Wan gave a pair of boots, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue each gave a purse of gold and silver, and each had their own gifts to welcome the spring and to welcome the spring. They were some gadgets. Jia Cong accepted them one by one with a smile and thanked them.

At this time, Jia Huan walked up, held out his fist tightly, and said with a sad look on his face: "Third brother, this is mine."

Jia Cong was amused. He opened his fingers and saw a small ingot. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hey, I'm looking at the money back."

Everyone laughed, and Jia Huan hid in the crowd.

Ping'er came forward again, holding a jade pendant with raised bamboo joints and handed it to him, saying: "Second Master Lian and Second Grandma Lian can't get away from each other in Dongfu. They ordered me to give this to you. I wish you a smooth career and a glorious family." .”

Jia Cong also knows the goods now. This jade pendant is emerald green and as pure as ice. It is obviously the best jade. He didn't expect Sister Feng to be so generous this time. Could it be that Ping'er said good things about him?

He didn't believe that Jia Lian, who had never been in contact with him before, would give him such a valuable thing, so he quickly took it, winked at Ping'er, and said with a smile: "Thank you, sister Ping'er."

"Thank me for what? I want to thank Second Master Lian and Second Grandma." Ping'er smiled slightly and stepped away.

Lin Daiyu came up and handed him a hardcover set of "Spring and Autumn" and said with a smile: "Master Guan is so brave that he still has to read "Spring and Autumn" at night. Since you want to be a general, you must read this book."

Jia Cong took it with a smile and said: "Now I feel dizzy when I look at the book. I'm afraid I won't be able to read it." Thinking that this is a book in traditional Chinese and vertical printing without punctuation, who doesn't feel dizzy?

Suddenly, I couldn't help but want to tease this goddess in the hearts of thousands of Red Mansions fans, so I whispered: "Unless you tell me, Mei'er."

Lin Daiyu's heart trembled, and her big eyes as pure as autumn water showed a hint of surprise. Such a scumbag dared to tease herself in public. Is that what you called me? I couldn't help but glare at him, gritted my teeth and said softly: "If I tell it to a toad, I won't tell it to you, huh."

Jia Cong watched her arrogantly turn around and walk away, laughing dumbly. Does that mean I'm not even as good as a toad? Sister Lin really has a character.

"Sister Bao, the sisters all gave me things, you won't not give them, right?" Jia Cong turned to look at Baochai and said.

Baochai rolled her eyes at him, stood up Yingying, took out a purse embroidered with ink landscapes from her sleeve and handed it to him, smiling: "Brother Cong, I made this myself, don't dislike the simplicity."

Jia Cong squeezed it gently and knew that there was a lot in his purse. He looked closely and saw a little general among the pastel landscapes. He reined up his horse and stood with a gun. There was a man who could guard the gate and ten thousand men could not open it. With a strong momentum, he suddenly said: "Is this the job I saw you doing last time?"

The last time Jia Cong went to Lixiangyuan, he saw Baochai working as a female prostitute, so he hid when he saw him coming.

Xue Baochai didn't need to cover up at this time. He nodded generously and said with a smile: "That's right. The stitching is not good. Please bear with me."

Jia Cong hurriedly took it into his arms and smiled at her without saying a word.
