Red Mansion Taoist

Chapter 236 Welcome the Spring
One day, Jia Qiang went back to her house and was drinking tea and reading a book. Lin Daiyu did not visit the house these days. Instead, she took the girls from the house to Lin's house.

Jia Qiang couldn't go to Lin Mansion, so she could only read books to pass the time.

He heard the footsteps and realized that the footsteps were not Jade and Qin'er, so he couldn't help but raise his head.

He was a little surprised to see Jia Xichun. Although Jia Xichun got along well with the other women in Jiahou's house, he rarely came to him.

The main reason is that the relationship between Jia Xichun and Jia Qiang is somewhat special. If calculated based on the seniority in Ningguo Mansion at that time, Jia Xichun is Jia Qiang's aunt.

But Jia Qiang had long been expelled from the family by Ningguo Mansion, and she no longer considered herself to be of the Jia family in the capital.

"Xichun, what's the matter?" Jia Qiang couldn't help but ask when she saw Jia Xichun's hesitation.

"Master, I have something to ask you!" Jia Xichun bit her lip and said.

"Sit down first!" Jia Qiang asked Jia Xichun to sit down and said with a smile.

Jia Xichun did not sit down. She was afraid that as soon as she sat down, she would lose the courage she had finally mustered up.

"Why are you crying? Sisters will come to accompany you in a few days!" Sun Shaozu said impatiently.

"The house is not short of this. Let's do it this way. If you offer Jade 10,000 taels of silver, you will come forward and exchange 10,000 taels of silver for Yingchun. That's all I can do!" Jia Qiang waved her hand and decided. .

"Jia Yingchun, what happened to her?" Jia Qiang was startled, not expecting Jia Xichun to say this, but he still asked.

After getting 10,000 taels of silver, Jia Xichun became worried again. How could she, a little girl, use these 10,000 taels of silver to exchange for the Spring Festival.

"You're a damn bitch for not telling me such an important thing earlier!" Sun Shaozu took the document, cursed, and kicked the butler.

"I want to ask you to save Sister Yingchun!" she begged.

Now that things are changing, Jia Yingchun is about to enter his door.

After all, it was his relative who asked for help for the first time, so he decided to help if he could.

Sun Shaozu of the Sun family was sitting on the big bed in the mansion. Beside him was a young woman with a frightened face. Black scars could be seen on her naked skin.

Jia Xichun went to Feicui and told Jia Qiang what he meant.

He thought of Jia Yingchun of Rongguo Mansion. He had bowed to Jia Yingchun of Rongguo Mansion when his family was in difficulty. At that time, Jia Yingchun was a noble lady.

He just wanted to see Jia Yingchun please him in front of his eyes, and he wanted to trample Miss Guimen under his feet.

Sun Shaozu looked at the woman's flattering smile with a proud look on his face.

The housekeeper had long been accustomed to Sun Shaozu's behavior and was used to being beaten.

"It's easy to make that person give up marrying Yingchun. No matter who he is, I can make him agree. But with Jia She's personality, there will be others without this person. Yingchun can't help it anyway!" Jia Qiang said lightly! said.

Just as he was thinking about it, the butler's voice came from outside.

The waiting time for the Ministry of War is subject to promotion. The waiting time depends on the arrangements of the Ministry of War. If it is relevant, it can be dealt with quickly and a better place can be given.

Although Sun Shaozu also entrusted someone, he knew that the energy of the person he entrusted would not have a great impact on the Ministry of War. But who would have thought that the Ministry of War would arrive with documents so quickly. It seems that he needs to thank the person who entrusted him.

The woman quickly put away her frightened expression and put on a flattering smile.

Jia Qiang also thought about what was going on. The person Xichun mentioned should be Sun Shaozu.

"What's disturbing my mood!" He put on some clothes, walked out, slapped the housekeeper on the face and said angrily.

"I often meet Yingchun and Tanchun. We met yesterday, but we didn't see Yingchun. I heard Tanchun said that Mr. Pardon owed money to someone and was planning to marry Yingchun to pay for the money. Tanchun had an extra thought. I went to inquire about that man. He liked to beat women. Two of his concubines were beaten to death.

After Jia Xichun bowed and saluted, she turned and left. After walking out of the room, Jia Qiang saw her jumping around and looking very happy.

But even though he was used to it, with the strength of General Sun Shaozu's hand, his face was still swollen.

"The Ministry of War has sent documents!" The steward paused for a moment before presenting the documents in his hand.

According to the original history, Yingchun married Sun Shaozu and was tortured to death by Sun Shaozu about a year later.

If he hadn't heard about this matter, he wouldn't have bothered with it, but Xichun came to ask for help, and it was just a matter of extending his hand to help with his ability.

"Why don't you give some money to Master She and bring Yingchun to live with me? It won't take up much money in the house. I have also saved some money over the years, and Yingchun will also use my share in the future!" Jia Xichun carefully proposed My own opinion.

The housekeeper was kicked in the head, but the kick didn't use much force.

Feicui had no objection and immediately took out a 10,000 tael silver note and gave it to Jia Xichun.

"Thank you, sir!" Jia Xichun thanked him excitedly.

On Jia Qiang's side, after Jia Xichun left, he wrote a note in his hand and asked someone to give it to Bao Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

When I arrived at the front yard, I happened to see Butler Lu Xun.

She approached Butler Lu Xun and wanted to ask Butler Lu Xun to help her speak.

If Yingchun were to get married, given her temperament and the fact that she still owed money to pay for it, she would probably be beaten to death! "Jia Xichun rarely says so many words in one breath, which shows that she is really anxious.

At this time, Sun Shaozu was waiting for promotion in the Ministry of War and was under the supervision of Bao Shangshu.

Bao Shangshu took Jia Qiang's note very seriously. Now Jia Qiang's status had surpassed that of Bao Shangshu. In addition, the request was very simple, so Bao Shangshu made it a smooth favor.

Based on the butler's experience, it seemed that Sun Shaozu's mood improved, so he didn't kick him hard.

But before thanking you, you still have to see what official position you get.

Sun Shaozu couldn't wait to open the document. The document from the Ministry of War was related to his future position.

Jia Xichun had a smile on his face, but when he heard about Jia She's character, he became upset again.

The document was opened, and the content inside was Sun Shaozu's transfer order. He was transferred to Yulin Town, one of the nine sides. When he arrived in Yulin Town, the commander-in-chief determined his position.

Looking at the document in his hand, Sun Shaozu was both happy and troubled.

What I am happy about is that it is one of the nine sides of Yulin Town. It is the place where I have made great achievements. There I have won the appreciation of the commander-in-chief. With more military exploits, I can rise to the top.

But the trouble is that the documents require him to leave Beijing tomorrow and go to Yulin Town.

He wanted to marry Jia Yingchun but had to postpone the discussion, which made him very unhappy.

However, for the sake of his future, he decided to go to Yulin Town first. If he left at night, the official position would not be waiting for him.

Sun Shaozu was able to be transferred to Yulin Town because of Jia Qiang's handwritten note.

This is a road of no return. Yulin Town is one of the military towns that is completely controlled by Jia Qiang from top to bottom. When Sun Shaozu arrived there, Wu had a large number of powerful generals to suppress him, and Zang Feiyu was officially there. The ending arranged by Jia Qiang for Sun Shaozu was for Sun Shaozu to die in battle, which could be regarded as leaving some dignity to the Sun family.

Next to the main entrance of Rongguo Mansion, there is a black oil gate, which leads to the courtyard where Jia She lives.

It's funny to say that Jia She, the eldest son of the eldest son, can only live in the side courtyard and is completely separated from the main courtyard.

According to the rules of Daqian, this is a reversal of ethics, but it is common in Rongguo Mansion.

"Sir, Miss Xichun is here and is waiting outside the door!" The young man quickly came to Jia She to report.

"Xichun, a little girl, is so unruly. Why did she come to see me? She just said that I was too busy to see her!" Jia She frowned and thought for a while, then waved his hand and said impatiently.

When he thought about it, Jia Xichun was just a helpless little girl, now just living in Jiahou's house.

Who is he? A majestic first-class general. How could he be just met by a little girl?

"Sir, Miss Xichun is accompanied by Butler Lu Xun!" the boy reminded.

"Steward Lu Xun, which steward Lu Xun?" Jia She was stunned by what the boy said, and for a moment he didn't remember who Butler Lu Xun was.

"That's Butler Lu Xun of Jiahou Mansion!" the boy replied.

Jia She suddenly sat upright. He should have looked down upon a mere housekeeper.

But Lu Xun's housekeeper was the housekeeper of Jiahou Mansion. Not to mention Jia Qiang's official position, Jia Qiang's favor made Jia She have to pay attention to it.

"Please come in, Butler Lu Xun!" Jia She ordered in a deep voice, and he added: "Xichun will be with us."

Not long after, housekeeper Lu Xun and Jia Xichun entered the room together.

"I've met the great master!" Jia Xichun bowed and said.

Butler Lu Xun didn't say anything, but he saluted respectfully.

"Miss Xichun, you haven't seen me for so long, and you brought Butler Lu with you this time, but what's the matter?" Jia She asked with a very kind attitude and a smile.

He had some scruples about Butler Lu Xun, but he couldn't be groveling yet, he still wanted to save face.

"My niece is here to welcome sister Chun!" Jia Xichun glanced at Butler Lu Xun who was standing aside. Butler Lu Xun smiled and gave her courage, and she said.

"That girl Yingchun, she's getting married soon!" Jia She said in a daze.

"My niece is alone in the house. She wants to take sister Yingchun to live with her. I offer her five thousand taels of silver and hope that the master will make it happen!" Jia Xichun said.

Jia He was stunned on the spot. If a man said this, he would think he was here to propose marriage, but the person facing the problem was Xichun, a little girl.

"Yingchun has made an engagement with someone, and he will get married soon!" Jia She was also greedy for five thousand taels of silver, but he agreed to marry Sun Shaozu, and he also owed Sun Shaozu five thousand taels of silver.

"The person who has arranged the marriage with Yingchun will not come to Yingchun. If the money is not enough, my niece can add some money!" Jia Xichun hesitated and said.

She was not sure when she said this. Although Jia Qiang agreed to deal with Sun Shaozu's side, she could not guarantee when Jia Qiang would be able to make Sun Shaozu refuse the marriage.

"Sir, the Sun family sent news that Mr. Sun will leave Beijing soon!" At this moment, a boy came to report.

Jia She was startled. He looked at Jia Xichun in shock, and then turned his attention to Butler Lu Xun.

He knew very well that Jia Xichun did not have the ability to make Sun Shaozu refuse the marriage and leave Beijing. Only Jia Qiang could have this ability. Looking at the steward Lu Xun's intervention, he thought it represented Jia Qiang.

"How much money can you add?" Since Sun Shaozu can't do it, and Yingchun doesn't want to be an eyesore by his side, why not change it for some money? Sun Shaozu can change it, and Jia Xichun can't change it. Besides, there are also With Jia Qiang's face, Jia She was unable to resist.

"I only have 10,000 taels of silver!" Jia Xichun pinched the banknotes in her arms and reported out as many banknotes as she could produce.

"Okay, let Yingchun go with you!" Jia She was overjoyed, fearing that Jia Xichun would regret it.

Since the Grand View Garden was built, life in Rongguo Mansion has been very tight, and he has no money in his hands.

He also loves antiques, and seeing good things but not being able to buy them makes him feel as uncomfortable as a hundred claws scratching his heart.

Only then did he sell Jia Yingchun to Sun Shaozu for five thousand taels of silver.

Jia Xichun couldn't help but feel sad for Yingchun. As a father, he could sell his daughter for money, which made her stick to her decision.

She took out the 10,000 taels of silver notes, and the steward Lu Xun on the side took it and gave it to Jia She.

Jia She glanced at Butler Lu Xun and took the banknote.

"Go ahead and ask Yingchun to come with a personal maid!" After receiving an extra five thousand taels of silver, and to avoid making Jia Qiang unhappy, he decided to send a personal maid.

Jia Yingchun brought her personal maid Xiu Ju to the outer study room. She was in a very low mood, guessing that her father had promised her out by calling her this time.

As the daughter of a concubine, her marriage would not be a grand event, but she did not expect that it would be such a ceremony without any ceremony.

In addition, she also learned from Jia Tanchun that Sun Shaozu liked to beat women.

It's just that she is cowardly and fearful by nature, and she is too honest. Since her father has decided, she is instinctively prepared to accept it.

After entering the outer study room, she saw Jia Xichun.

"Second sister!" Jia Xichun happily stepped forward and hugged Jia Yingchun and shouted.

"Why are you, fourth sister, here?" Jia Yingchun asked in surprise.

"Okay, I've sent someone to send Xiuju's body deed. Yingchun took Xiuju's body deed and followed Xichun. There's no need to come back!" Jia She waved his hand and said.

At this moment, he was only thinking about the ten thousand taels of silver in his hand, and he was thinking about how many good things he could get.

Jia Yingchun was a little at a loss, but Xiuju was smart and pulled her out.

"Second sister, from now on you will live with me in Jiahou Mansion, and we sisters will no longer be separated!" Jia Xichun said happily.

"I..." Jia Yingchun hesitated, not knowing what to do.

However, Xiuju and Xichun persuaded her and pulled her out. Someone brought Xiuju's deed to her on the way.

It wasn't until Jia Yingchun entered Jiahou's mansion that she realized that she seemed to have left home.

But somehow, instead of feeling sad, she felt a sense of relief and her whole body felt much more relaxed.

"Oh, miss, our things are still in Rongguo Mansion!" Xiuju exclaimed at this time.

"It's okay, just buy something new if you need it!" Jia Xichun said generously.
