With its four hooves churning, a black horse galloped on a dirt road from the south city to the west city, its four hoofs stepping on some sand and gravel from time to time.
Along the way, there were passers-by walking or riding donkeys and mules from time to time, looking at Jia Yun with envious eyes.
Even passers-by riding horses looked at Jia Yun with envy, because they were riding ordinary horses, but Jia Yun's horse looked extraordinary.
At this time, Jia Yun saw an acquaintance riding a horse in front of her. It was Lin Zhixiao, the second housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion. Jia Yun slowed down her horse, guessing that Lin Zhixiao was probably coming to see him.
Lin Zhixiao discovered Jia Yun and hurriedly rode forward, calling softly: "Second Master Yun!"
Second Master Yun? Jia Yun raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
Jia Yun knew that every time he saw Lin Zhixiao before, Lin Zhixiao never called him, not even "Brother Yun". Even if he won the first place in the martial arts examination, Lin Zhixiao would not care about him when he saw him.
It was just a smile at most, but now Lin Zhixiao calls him "Yun Erye"!
Such a small detail allowed Jia Yun to judge that his success in the martial arts test this time made Lin Zhixiao, the second master of Rongguo Mansion, want to respect him.
This is exactly what happened.
Although Lin Zhixiao was not good at talking, and Wang Xifeng and his wife commented that they were "deaf and mute", Lin Zhixiao was a shrewd man, otherwise he would not have been the second housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Yun's success in the martial arts test this time made Lin Zhixiao feel that he would definitely pass the high school in the martial arts examination in the future. In addition, Jia's mother was going to summon Jia Yun again today, so Lin Zhixiao felt that he needed to treat Jia Yun respectfully now.
He was only treated with respect. Lin Zhixiao didn't feel the need to try his best to please Jia Yun now.
Jia Yun smiled and said: "Second Master Lin, why are you here?"
Lin Zhixiao forced a smile to Jia Yun: "Master Yun, please don't call me 'Master Lin' in the future. If you want to be rewarded, call me 'Steward Lin'."
Jia Yun nodded: "Since this is Butler Lin's intention, I will call you that in the future."
Jia Yun inevitably felt a sense of accomplishment. He used to call Lin Zhixiao "Second Master Lin", but now it's the other way around. Lin Zhixiao calls him "Second Master Yun".
Lin Zhixiao got to the point: "The second master of the house sent me to find you, saying that the old lady wanted to see you. I was originally going to Jing's Martial Arts School to find you, but I happened to meet you here."
Jia Yun nodded understandingly: "In that case, let's go back to Xicheng together."
Lin Zhixiao said "hmm".
Lin Zhixiao didn't want to keep his masters waiting any longer, so he speeded up his horse riding back to the house. Jia Yun also speeded up, and not long after, the two of them rode into Ningrong Street together.
Just like when Jia Yun came to Jia Zheng to help with martial arts, today there are still a few well-dressed gatekeepers guarding the west corner gate of Rongguo Mansion, and they still look slack, either chatting or lazily leaning against the door.
Side, or sitting and yawning...
Moreover, there is still Qin Xian among these sects!
More than two years ago, Jia Yunyi filed a lawsuit and Qin Xian was kicked out.
But at that time, Jia Mu told Qin Xianniang that she had served Qin Xianniang for several years and that her family had worked for the government for many years. She asked Qin Xianniang to discipline her son well. If Qin Xian gets better in two or three years, she would come back to her.
She will arrange for Qin Xian to return to the house.
How could Qin Xianniang be willing to wait two or three years!
Qin Xian had a lot of money as a disciple in Rongguo Mansion. After being kicked out, he couldn't find such a good job. In addition, he lost all his family savings in gambling and owed some gambling debts. His life was really difficult, and he was also involved.
Parents Qin De and Qin Xianniang were in trouble.
So just last year, Qin Xianniang shamelessly ran to the old lady in advance to plead for mercy, and even pretended to cry, so Jia Mu asked Qin Xian to come back as the gatekeeper of the West Point Gate.
Jia Yun already knew about this, but she never found a good opportunity to punish Qin Xian again.
At this moment, Jia Yun and Lin Zhixiao were riding horses along Ningrong Street towards the west corner gate. Several gates, including Qin Xian, stood up straight.
It's not that these disciples are afraid of Lin Zhixiao. Lin Zhixiao is a low-key person. He rarely shows off in front of his servants and rarely loses his temper. He gives people an easy-going vibe. Few of the servants in the house are afraid of him.
These disciples are somewhat in awe of Jia Yun.
Because Jia Yun's performance in the martial arts test this time surprised them.
It was also because when Jia Yun came to Jia Zheng to help with the martial arts examination more than two years ago, he complained to Qin Xian and was kicked out. Now that his status is much higher than before, several disciples did not dare to offend him easily.
Jia Yun glanced at Qin Xian specifically. Although Qin Xian straightened his body at this time, his eyes and expression when he looked at Jia Yun were obviously filled with resentment.
In fact, more than a year after Qin Xian came back, Jia Yun had already discovered that this guy was resentful towards him.
"Do you still have the nerve to resent me? Forget it, I will let you be kicked out again today. If you are kicked out this time, you should never want to come back again in the future!"
Jia Yun thought silently in her heart and entered the west corner gate with Lin Zhixiao.
Jia Mu has sent a woman to wait at the west corner gate.
Jia Yun never forgot to tell Lin Zhixiao: "Steward Lin, send someone reliable to tie my horse. Don't let Qin Xian touch my horse."
He has become accustomed to acting cautiously, and he also likes the black horse that has been with him for two years, but he has no expectations for Qin Xian's character.
He felt that Qin Xian did not dare to bully him now, but he might bully his horse while he was away.
…
…
At this moment, many people gathered in Jia Mu's Rongqing Hall.
There are Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun and Jia Baoyu.
There are maids such as Ping'er, Yuanyang, Yingge, and Xiren, as well as a group of wives and mothers-in-law.
So many people are gathering together now, for no other reason than to wait for Jia Yun's arrival!
Yes, welcoming the spring, exploring the spring, and appreciating the spring are also here.
The reason is that Tanchun has heard too many magical stories about Jia Yun and is very curious about Jia Yun. He has long wanted to meet her. Now that he learned about Jia Yun's achievements in the martial arts examination, he wants to meet her even more.
Yingchun didn't want to meet Jia Yun, but she was weak in character and had no independent opinions. Tanchun wanted to see Jia Yun, so she was coaxed to come together.
Xichun also followed her two sisters.
As for Jia Baoyu, he was not happy with Jia Yun!
Although Jia Yun has visited Rongguo Mansion several times in the past two years, she has never met Jia Baoyu.
Jia Baoyu didn't like Jia Yun because he felt that men like Jia Yun who practiced martial arts were stinky. It was even more stinky that Jia Yun took the martial arts examination.
However, although he didn't like Jia Yun, so many sisters and sisters gathered in Rongqing Hall today, so he followed her.
At the moment, Jia Baoyu is sitting in Jia Mu's arms, her mind is not on Jia Yun who is about to arrive, but on the sisters in the room.
He looked at this sister now and then at that sister. He was in a happy mood when he suddenly found Jia Zheng staring at him and quickly lowered his head.
