Chapter 88

It is the twelfth lunar month now, and Li Wan Yingchun starts to take charge of the annual event. On the day of reading at midnight, Jia Cong went to visit Yingchun. Hearing her discussing the New Year gifts for each residence with Tanchun, he remembered Gong Sanyi's words and asked: "What kind of relatives are our family in Chang'an?"

Tanchunqi said: "Do you even know this? The sister of my grandfather's legitimate daughter married into the Gao family and is still here."

Jia Cong was startled: "Is it still here? Isn't it extremely long?"

Tanchun said: "If I remember the post correctly, she will have her 70th birthday next year."

Jia Cong jumped up with a "rubbing": "It's only seventy next year?"

Tanchun said, "That's right. Although life is rare in seventy years, our family still has an ancestor. Why should you be so surprised?"

Jia Cong smirked twice: "I have never seen my grandfather, and I just feel that his girl is probably very old, so she is so young." After he finished speaking, he also laughed.

Yingchun smiled and said, "If the old lady knew you said she was young, she would be very happy. Do you ask for nothing about their family? "

Jia Cong said: "I just suddenly remembered it. Since it is such an important birthday, will our family send someone to celebrate it? Brother Lian's second brother?"

Yingchun said: "How can the second brother have the skills? You guys also need to study. We have less contact with their family over the years, so we can only send two reliable managers."

Jia Cong thought for a while: "Second sister, check the old accounts. When did our two families start to have less contact? Since their grandfather passed away, they will be the second wife in charge of the family? Is it because of the disagreement between my grandmother and my aunt in the early years? Or is it because of the other party?"

Yingchun asked, "What are you doing when you look up this?"

Jia Cong said: "At first I thought their family was just a relative of the Eighth Route Army. I didn't want to be so close. Why did a good family get far away inexplicably? I think it's a pity. In addition, my grandfather was wise for a lifetime, and even our children and grandchildren could not enter the military camp, even if they were far away from my aunt, I would be ashamed of my grandfather."

Yingchun Tanchun couldn't help but ignore it, Tanchun said, "For helplessness? Why are you forced to helplessness? From the two masters, except for you and Huan'er, the men in the mansion have long abandoned martial arts and conquered literature."

Jia Cong pulled his lips: "Where did my father abandon martial arts and follow the literature? He is obviously a general? Although he has not practiced his skills for many years, he has been abandoned. The two sisters really don't understand why they are helpless? I only remind one thing: the years after my grandfather passed away, the remaining power in the army is still extremely strong. That year, I went to the dock to pick up uncle Lin, and met the wise king Situ Pan, who sincerely told him that I was learning martial arts. He actually told me not to slacken in studying."

Yingchun said unsurely: "Isn't this a good thing?"

Jia Cong said, "I heard Brother Feng sigh inadvertently that now there are more and more generals in the generals, but I don't know if there will be generals on the frontier in the future. Sister, if you are the Ninth Prince and the Emperor is your brother, you two work together to seize the treasure from the brothers. In the early years, there was an invincible general in the court. He killed the enemy soldiers in the southern and northern countries and fled. His son was not very useful, and the other one followed Wen. At this moment, he suddenly had a grandson. Although he was young, he was quite smart, and you also liked him a little. He said he wanted to learn martial arts. At this moment, some people were already worried that the signs of generals in the court had already arisen. Will you encourage him to practice martial arts well, and to defend the border with his grandfather in the future, or will you tell him not to slacken in school?"

Yingchun couldn't help but be stunned, and after half a day, he said, "I actually made you confused."

Tanchun was shocked: "You mean, the wise king is willing to ask you not to practice martial arts? Why is this? Doesn't he want anyone in our family to follow the martial arts?"

Jia Cong nodded and said, "My grandfather is a little more capable than the master. Before his remaining power disperses, the Situ family may not want anyone in our Jia family to get involved in military power."

His words themselves shocked Yingchun Tanchun. The three words "Situ Family" became more and more shocking, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time. They looked at each other in a panic, and Tanchun said tremblingly: "Cong'er, what do you mean? Explain it more clearly."

Jia Cong spread his hands and said, "What's strange about this? Haven't you read about releasing military power with a glass of wine? Brother Huan and I are not ready to go to martial arts. Isn't it good to take the imperial examination tomorrow?"

Yingchun closed her eyes and thought for a while, and said in a trembling voice: "It turns out that... the Tian family is not as favoured as we hear every day."

Jia Cong smiled and said, "How can there be unparalleled holy favors? Grandfather is not the old saint's CP! Even so, the old saint abdicated. This Rongguo Mansion is just a commendation of grandfather's great contributions in the battles between the south and the north. Because he has made great contributions, he has only paid a lot. The Tian family did not open a health hall, so how many generations do they want to earn each person's achievements? Now this is really worthy of us."

Yingchun Tanchun heard from his elders that our family had received the grace and favor of heaven and favor, and habits became natural. He had long regarded the saint's kindness as "it was the case". He never thought of this, and he was at a loss.

Jia Cong deliberately grinned at the side, saying, "Is this difficult to accept? Isn't it natural?"

Yingchun said: "Then... can our family still have the eyes of a saint in the future?"

Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "Let's calm down in the past few years. All the time, my grandfather is the confidant of the old saint. When the old man Long Yugui Tian, ​​I and Brother Huan, Brother Baoyu can also be admitted to the imperial examination. We are the disciples of the emperor and have nothing to do with the old saint. But we cannot be indifferent to the aunt and wife's family. We can have no soldiers in our hands, but we cannot have no soldiers in our relatives! If there is any unexpected thing, such as being dragged down by Brother Zhen of the East Mansion, the Situ family has no worries when they start."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yingchun and Tanchun were so scared that they stood up: "What did you say!"

Jia Cong pretended to be inexplicably again: "Did I say anything strange?"

Yingchun held his chest and said, "Don't scare me, I've scared you into a cold sweat."

Jia Cong became more and more surprised: "I didn't scare you! My sisters have read history books, but these are so normal. What's wrong? I didn't say that the Situ family was going to destroy our door! I just said that I'm afraid I'm tired of being taken by the East Mansion."

He became bigger and bigger, and Yingchun Tanchun scared him, his face trembling as white paper. Jia Cong realized that he was playing big, and hurriedly comforted him: "The old saint is still here. When he leaves, we should go out. Sister, don't worry, your brother is not an incompetent person, and he will definitely be able to find a place in the court. Brother Huan is also. All the crimes of being evenly placed on the court are just the Tian family used to show others to show off to others to kill chickens and scare the monkeys. If the person being even placed on the board is extremely important, he will definitely not be able to bear talents. Our brothers have become pillars of the court in the future, and the saints are not willing to bear even sitting on us. Besides, Brother Zhen may not really cause trouble. Even if he causes trouble, how big can he cause trouble?" After saying that, looking at the faces of his two sisters, he couldn't help but slap himself in the face, "Are I really so unlikely to comfort people? Why do you seem to be more and more frightened?"

After a while, Tanchun sat down and sighed, "Cong'er is not allowed to laugh at us. We have never thought about these things. Forget it, go first, we will be quiet."

Jia Cong also knew that he had played too much today, so he hurriedly beat him a few, haha, and he ran away.

Yingchun Tanchun sat quietly for half a day, Yingchun said decisively: "Brother Zhen must have something wrong."

Tanchun nodded: "I'm afraid Cong'er knows some clues."

The two of them looked at each other again, and saw the waves in each other's eyes. Yingchun said, "In my early years, I was controlled by Mother Wang, and I only suffered every day. Hou Cong'er complained to my second brother for me, and I thought I would be healthy from now on. I don't want to... We recite poems and paintings in the mansion every day, guessing the words and decomposing them. It's so dangerous outside the mansion."

The two of hers were silent again. After a while, Tanchun called the Shishu in and said, "Go and invite Miss Lin, remember not to disturb the fourth girl." The Shishu took the order and left.

After a while, Lin Daiyu sneaked in and said with a smile: "The girl from Shishu is getting more and more ghosts. She quietly winked and gestured to me for half a day, and she was standing in a place where both of them were invisible to see her." Suddenly, she glanced at her and saw that both of them looked panicked and asked what had happened.

Tanchun took a deep breath, sent the waiter out, pulled Daiyu to sit beside him, and whispered Jia Cong's words just now.

Since the saint used Lin Hai as bait, Lin Daiyu had already let Jia Cong lead the wrongdoer. She has visited many tunnels in the past six months and is familiar with Jia Cong's group of SHIELD. Because she often talks in the same place, she is inevitably influenced by them and has lost her respect for the Tian family. Therefore, she said inexplicably: "He said it very well. Why are you panicing?"

Erchun looked at each other again and Yingchun said, "Do you think his words are very good? Don't you think there is anything wrong?"

Daiyu asked: "Sister Yi Er is right?"

Yingchun couldn't help but shed tears: "Old ancestors usually say that our family's holy favor is extremely deep... It turns out..."

Daiyu said, "What my ancestors said is not right. Your family is really very holy favors. But, as Cong'er said, these holy favors were not smashed from the sky in vain, but were exchanged for their merits."

Tanchun also cried: "We always say that Brother Baoyu is dreaming, but it turns out that we are dreaming ourselves." She sighed again, "It's not just us, I'm afraid that even the old lady and the master are dreaming."

Daiyu said, "Uncle is not dreaming."

Tanchun smiled bitterly: "It's a good thing that he woke up." He said, "Since we are like this, we must make up for the gap between us and the Gao family in the past few years."

Yingchun nodded, and the two of them called for someone to send all the old accounts from many years ago to carefully check them. Daiyu stayed to help. After a lot of effort, it was found that since Jia Daishan left, the two families suddenly lost contact. The various New Year gifts sent by Rongguo Mansion have been much thinner since the following year. At first, the gifts returned from five years have not decreased. Since the sixth year after Jia Daishan left, they have been equal to the rituals of Rongguo Mansion. Fortunately, they were not too distant. Daiyu couldn't help but blurted out: "Can they really be grandmother and..." She hurriedly covered her mouth.

Half a day, Tanchun also sighed in a low voice: "I always thought that my ancestors were the ones who knew the truth best..."

Yingchun suddenly laughed and said, "That day Cong'er picked up the book "Zizhi Tongjian" and showed it to me."

Daiyu hurriedly asked, "What is he making trouble?"

"He said that it is difficult to govern the country with all kinds of gold and purple, and a pair of hairpins can manage the family. Although women cannot go out to serve as officials, they need to have some big hills and valleys in their hearts, so that they will not mislead their family because of short-sightedness."

The three of them looked at each other a few more times, and Tanchun said, "Since that's the case, we must prepare for the New Year's Day ceremony over there this year."

Daiyu said, "I'm afraid they will not understand why. I have an incredible idea. Do you want to listen?"

Erchun hurriedly said, "Prince, please speak."

Daiyu smiled bitterly and said, "I can't think of anything else for a moment, I can only think of..." She glanced at Tanchun, "We can't say that my grandmother's is not. Why not just leave a divorce letter to my second sister, saying that you and my sister-in-law are in charge of the family for the first time, and there is something wrong with me, so I carefully checked the old accounts for many years - this matter was also true. I found that I had been divorced from my grandmother's family over the years, but it was really our family's fault. I had been the second wife's family in charge of the family in the early years..."

Yingchun laughed out loud.

Daiyu smiled and said, "It's not appropriate to be straight. You can't let your grandmother carry it. Just let her be filial and carry it for you. I think my grandmother knows it well."

Tanchun said: "I'll go back and embroider her forehead carefully."

Yingchun said: "Then I will make a purse."

Daiyu sighed, "In the past two years, I have not picked up horizontal needles and vertical threads. I have been thinking about the authenticity of those houses every day. I can't do needlework. I will turn around or write a word and a fan, and then ask Cong'er to find a way to make some unique and interesting gifts for me."

Tanchun smiled and said, "The prime minister is very neat and timid in order to call students."

Daiyu then leaned on the kang and snorted: "I have made so many ideas for him over the years, but I haven't seen a single silver thank you for it. It's a good idea for him to think of such a small idea."

Yingchun stood up and saluted her seriously: "Grandmaster Lin is so sad, I thank you for your lord."

The three of them then laughed and made a bunch of them.

Soon Zijuan passed the order for her prime minister to Lixiangyuan. Jia Cong said frowningly: "I can naturally find a unique little gift, but the gift is just a gift after all. Sister Lin is good at writing, so it is better to write a poem about missing her parents or write a poem that praises her grandfather's achievements."

Zijuan smiled and took his words back.

Jia Cong thought about it and had to inform Jia She, so he ran to find him. He said that when Yingchun Tanchun checked the accounts, he thought it was inappropriate and sent him as a messenger and asked if he wanted to resume contact with their family.

Jia She used to be dissatisfied with the Gao family because he was despised himself and lost his real power; and he was ridiculous in his early years and never took these things seriously. Now that he heard this, he actually alienated himself from others first! He couldn't help but be furious: "The old lady has long hair and short knowledge, which has ruined our whole family!"

Jia Cong secretly curled his lips, thinking to himself that you haven’t cared about it either?

Jia She thought for a while: "The two girls said very well, so naturally they would be good children and get closer to their aunt's house. Since it is not ours, this year's New Year's Etiquette must be thicker!"

Jia Cong said: "Sister Lin also came up with a ghost idea, asking them to write a letter to their aunt, saying that they were the second wife in their early years..."

Jia She smiled when she heard this: "Okay, okay! Lin Yat-tou is really smart!" Suddenly, "It seems that she hasn't bought anything for your sisters for years."

Jia Cong nodded: "Yes! It's been a lot of years!"

Jia She smiled and said, "Your sisters are all good! Let's go shopping tomorrow and buy your sister some good things to buy in the box!"

Jia Cong jumped happily: "Okay! Buy me some fun too!"
