There were many ships traveling on the Grand Canal, and the deck of one of the large ships was filled with soldiers. Jia Rong was sitting on a chair among the soldiers, enjoying the breeze with her eyes closed.
I have been living on the ship back to Chang'an for several days now, and I am feeling a little bored.
This ship was assigned by Commander Wan, who not only had the ship, but also assigned a team of hundreds of households to protect Jia Rong.
Although Jia Rong refused many times, she still could not resist Commander Wan's enthusiasm. After many rejections, Jia Rong was forced to accept.
After bringing the team together, Jia Rong found that it was actually quite refreshing to have many people following him. No matter what he wanted to do, there would be someone to do it and it would be done properly, and no one would look after him like when he came here.
The most important thing is the pomp and circumstance. Jia Rong was too bored on the route for a few days. Once when he was standing on the deck looking at the scenery, he accidentally saw someone pointing at him and making comments.
After that, Jia Rong felt a long-lost happiness in her heart, so she took up a new hobby on the boat.
Jia Rong told Jia Qiang to notify him whenever he encountered other boats on the way. Then Jia Rong would call everyone who was not busy to stand and look at the scenery, while he sat on a chair in the center.
Observing the reactions of other passengers on board.
More than a hundred soldiers stood on both sides of him, while he sat in the middle and flipped through a book leisurely. There were people below who were amazed. This feeling was not too pretentious!
Although he couldn't hear the sound, Jia Rong was very satisfied when he saw others looking shocked at him: "In a boring life, I can only have fun by appearing in front of others."
"General Xiao Rong, we are approaching Jinling just ahead. Should we go to Jinling for a walk?"
Some soldiers were reporting the situation to Jia Rong. After hearing this, Jia Rong opened his eyes and looked into the distance. Jinling City could now be seen with the naked eye.
Jinling? Jia Rong pondered for a moment and thought to herself: "Speaking of the Dream of Red Mansions, the only name I am familiar with is the title Twelve Hairpins of Jinling, but I don't know who is among them, and I don't know if they are all in Jinling."
"Sister Feng and Mrs. Wang seem to belong to the Wang family in Jinling. So is Sister Feng one of the twelve beauties?"
Jia Rong was a little curious about who the legendary Twelve Hairpins of Jinling were and why they were so famous. Even many perverts knew the name Twelve Hairpins of Jinling but did not know the book Dream of Red Mansions.
Before Jia Rong could answer the soldiers, Jia Qiang looked excitedly in the direction of Jinling and said: "Brother Rong, let's go and have a look! Wouldn't it be a pity not to visit Jinling City during this trip to Jiangnan.
"
"Damn! What else do you know besides shopping? What is there to see in Jinling? It doesn't matter whether we go shopping or not. Why don't we go back to Chang'an as soon as possible?" Zhao Ying interrupted Jia Qiang angrily.
Zhao Ying thought to herself: I don't know how Chu Mo's health is, or whether she has missed me.
Jia Qiang has never been to a place other than Chang'an in his life, so he is looking forward to going to Jinling.
Zhao Ying, on the other hand, wanted to return to Chang'an as early as possible to meet Miss Chumo, whom he thought about day and night.
Hearing this, Jia Qiang looked at Zhao Ying and said dissatisfiedly: "Have I offended you? It's none of your business whether I go shopping or not, and I didn't ask you to come with me. You don't have to go at all!"
Zhao Ying mocked: "Haha, brother Qiang, you can't just think about yourself, can't you think about it for Brother Rong and me? We still have people we miss in Chang'an, how can you not even think about them?
There’s no girl I can think of!”
Hearing this, Jia Qiang couldn't help but be startled, and a strange feeling arose in his heart, which made him very uncomfortable.
They were next to each other almost every day for two days, and Zhao Ying would often please him to inquire about Miss Chumo, so Jia Qiang naturally knew who Zhao Ying said he missed.
Jia Qiang sneered and said: "Yes, I don't even have a girl to miss, but do you think you do? It's just wishful thinking!"
Jia Qiang is no longer the weak and weak girl she used to be. Her personality is getting closer to that of a man, and she won't tolerate it when she quarrels with others.
"Brother Qiang, are you threatening me?" Zhao Ying's face instantly turned cold. He rolled up his sleeves and stared at Jia Qiang: "I tell you, young people should not be too arrogant!"
"Why don't you call me young?" Jia Qiang puffed up her chest and said without fear of looking at Zhao Ying.
"Two general bannermen..." One of the bannermen saw something was wrong and wanted to go up and try to persuade him, but was stopped by Jia Rong before he arrived.
Jia Rong said with a smile: "Let them make noise, they are bored!"
Then he said to Jia Qiang and Zhao Ying: "You are quarreling. After the quarrel, let's go to Jinling together first. There is nothing wrong with being delayed for a day."
Jia Rong also wanted to go to Jinling to inquire about the Twelve Beauties of Jinling, mainly because she was curious about what kind of people they were.
"Brother Rong has misunderstood. How can I quarrel with Brother Qiang? After all, he is also my uncle." Zhao Ying's face suddenly changed and she revealed a smile.
Since Brother Rong has decided to go to Jinling, he has to go, but Zhao Ying here of Jia Qiang has no intention of letting him go. How dare he be so arrogant now?
If he and Chu Mo were to be hindered in the future, Zhao Ying had already decided to be completely shameless and call Jia Qiang uncle in front of everyone.
"Uncle?" Everyone except Jia Rong was stunned when they heard this. It turns out that the two generals have such a relationship.
"You fart!" Jia Qiang immediately became furious when she heard this. She didn't expect Zhao Ying, a bastard, to be so rude: "You are worthy of letting me..."
"Let me be your uncle?"
Then the two started to quarrel again, while Jia Rong watched the drama happily, thinking: What would happen if Zhao Ying knew that Brother Qiang was Chumo in the future? Just thinking about it makes me feel very sad.
Stimulate.
Jia Rong is vaguely looking forward to this!
They didn't stop arguing until the boat docked.
When we arrived at Jinling, another problem arose when the ship docked on the shore, that is, not everyone could go together. In the end, ten small flag guessers decided whether to stay or go. The winners went to Jinling, and the losers stayed to watch the ship.
In the end, including Zhao Ying, Jia Qiang, and Jia Rong, there were a total of sixty-three people. The group changed into casual clothes and entered Jinling City in a mighty manner.
............
In the city of Jinling, there is a big river that has acted out countless love stories of talented men and beautiful women. It is the Qinhuai River. Only when you reach the Qinhuai River can you know the prosperity of Jiangnan!
Walking on the edge of the Qinhuai River, overlooking the scenery of the river, one boat after another with carved beams and painted buildings passes through it, with orioles singing and dancing on the boats, and the piano and harp resonating, creating a majestic scene.
There are also many wonderful scenes that Jia Rong has never seen when she was in Chang'an. The women on the Qinhuai River may be a little too unrestrained compared to other places due to environmental problems.
"The smoke is in the cold water, the moon is in the sand, and I stay in Qinhuai at night, close to the restaurant."
"Everyone says that when you come to Jinling, you must come to Qinhuai River. This is true!"
Jia Rong admired the scenery of the Qinhuai River and sighed. Although he didn't ask for news about the Twelve Beauties of Jinling all the way, it was worth it!
"Uh-huh!" Jia Qiang looked around excitedly, and then heard Jia Rong's sigh and replied: "The story books say that the mist of Jinling and Qinhuai, half of them talented people, half of their beauties, together composed a picture of a prosperous and romantic scene.
scene."
At this time, Zhao Ying's discordant words came: "Of course it is a romantic scene. Where else can I see so many women dressed in coquettish clothes? I don't even know what to be ashamed of!"
"But I like it very much!" Zhao Ying looked at the cool-dressed women coming and going with a mischievous smile, commenting on them one by one. One would say that this one was hot, and the other would say that that one was so big.
This move caused the passing women to run away in fright, and Jia Qiang stood far away from Zhao Ying. She originally thought that Zhao Ying was a serious and good man, but unexpectedly she turned out to be a slut in private.
It was so embarrassing that even Jia Rong's impression of him was refreshed a lot, and she couldn't help but sternly reprimanded him: "Brother Zhao, seriously, what does this pig look like! Don't you always talk about this life?
Do you only love one person? How could you do such a rude thing now?"
When Jia Rong asked this, Jia Qiang's ears perked up. He also wanted to hear what Zhao Ying would say, but Zhao Ying's words made Jia Qiang shake her head.
"Hehe!" Zhao Ying, who was told directly by Jia Rong, couldn't help but sneered: "Brother Rong, it's mainly because I haven't seen a woman for so long that I couldn't bear the excitement."
"Besides, looking at beautiful women is just a man's true nature. It doesn't stop me from loving only one person!"
Jia Rong frowned slightly when he heard this and said seriously: "Where did you get this nonsense? No matter how excited you are, you can't act so rude. Others would think you are a dirty guy who eats barbecue and beats people up!"
"Just look at beautiful women with your eyes, instead of making fun of them like you do now. You think it's just fun, but others think it's shameless and shameless!"
"I'm just talking casually." Zhao Ying looked at Jia Rong and looked a little panicked. He touched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "I know Brother Rong, I will never be like this again!"
Seeing that Zhao Ying admitted his mistake, Jia Rong nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go find a place to eat first!"
Seeing that Jia Rong had already said that they were going to eat, everyone no longer missed the girls by the Qinhuai River, and all started discussing where to go to eat.
"Okay! How about we go to a painting boat? The girls on the painting boat are very moving!"
"Come on, is Huafang a place to eat? It's so expensive that so many of us just can't afford it."
"Let's go to an ordinary restaurant. I heard that the women at Huafang cost money just to look at them. With so many of us going to Huafang, we would have to spend at least tens of thousands of taels!"
"Haha, tens of thousands taels? I guess one hundred thousand taels may not be enough. This is a gold-selling cave."
"This is an exaggeration. For one hundred thousand taels, I will buy his boat directly, and I can play with it as I want!"
"Rubber!"
In the end, because I didn't have much money in my pocket, I had to find a cheaper restaurant to eat, but no matter how cheap it was on the bank of the Qinhuai River, it couldn't be much cheaper.
Even just for a meal, it cost 500 taels of silver, which made Jia Rong feel very distressed. Fortunately, Jia Rong's family was rich, otherwise ordinary people would not be able to afford to treat more than 60 people to a meal in the Qinhuai River after saving money for several lifetimes.
After the meal, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves!
It should be that the guest is happy and the host is sad.
When paying the bill, Jia Rong felt lifeless and regretted her trip to Jinling. Not only did she not know about the Twelve Beauties of Jinling, she also spent a huge sum of five hundred taels of silver.
Only the beauties of all kinds on the road could make up for the loss in Jia Rong's heart.
Although Jia Rong had just reprimanded Zhao Ying, Jia Rong felt that Zhao Ying was right about one thing, that is, the clothes of these women were too coquettish.
I even occasionally caught a glimpse of the woman in the boat, who was dressed in sexy lingerie that was in no way inferior to that of later generations!
Ancient people really knew how to play!
"My wife has such a good figure, I don't know what she will look like wearing it!" Jia Rong thought of this question inadvertently, thinking about his wife wearing a transparent tulle and raising a flag in a salute.
"Ahem!" It didn't take long for Jia Rong to walk out of the bustling street. He saw a unique clothing store and a fruit stall not far away. He looked at the people playing and playing behind him and coughed twice.
He said seriously: "I'm going to buy some oranges, but don't move around here!"
Everyone answered yes, and then Jia Rong walked into the clothing store under the watchful eyes of everyone, and there was a sudden cry.
Zhao Ying and a few thick-skinned people also imitated Jia Rong and said, "I'm going to take a look at the scenery of the clothing store. Just wait for me here!"
In the store, Jia Rong is choosing clothes. Jia Rong has been struggling with the dazzling products. There are translucent skirts, cheongsam-like ones, and even miniskirts, etc., all styles are available!
Jia Rong even wanted to buy them all for You and Wang Xifeng to wear one by one: "If anyone says that the ancients were conservative in the future, I will be the first to criticize him!"
"How are these clothes inferior to modern ones? The only drawback is that they don't have stockings. What a pity. It's a great regret in life!"
Jia Rong sighed with regret: "Why didn't I go to work in a stocking factory in my previous life? If I could do it over again, I would definitely go to the stocking factory to learn how to make stockings!"
In the end, Jia Rong selected 20 pieces and wrapped them. This time, she also spent 500 taels. However, Jia Rong did not feel distressed at all, but was extremely happy. This shows that this store has mastered the true meaning of consumption!
"This trip to Jinling is worth it!"
Carrying the baggage of packed clothes, I left the clothing store and bought a few oranges at the fruit stand next to me before walking towards the crowd.
Under the half-smiling gaze of everyone, Jia Rong's eyes flashed with panic and embarrassment, but then he forced himself to calm down and scolded: "Look at what you are looking at, if there is anything good to see, quickly take the oranges and eat them!"
Then he threw the orange to someone casually, put the bag on Jia Qiang's back, and said without looking back: "Let's go, it's time to go back!"
After being scolded by Jia Rong, everyone immediately pretended to be calm and loudly replied: "Yes!"
"Someone come quickly!"
Just as Jia Rong and his party were leaving, they suddenly heard someone shouting in the distance.
