After wandering on the Grand Canal for nearly a month, I arrived in the capital.
On the pier, Jia's mules, horses, carriages, and sedans were already waiting. Jia Lian was arranging everything. Suddenly he saw Jia Yucun approaching, so he left his chores behind, stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said with a smile: "Everything was so busy along the way, but I was neglecting it."
Mr. Amemura."
Jia Yucun quickly returned the gift and replied very politely: "Brother Shi, you are so polite. I have been taking care of you all the way. Now that Brother Shi has said this, I am really embarrassed."
Jia Lian smiled and said, "Mr. Yucun's carriage is ready. Please come with me."
Jia Yucun shook his head, "I'm just here to say goodbye. Firstly, my brother has returned home from a long way and is busy with everything, so I don't want to disturb you. Secondly, I have some friends in Beijing and I'm about to go and pay a visit.
So, let’s just say goodbye.”
Although Jia Yucun wanted to be reinstated as soon as possible, he knew not to act too hastily.
If he immediately went to see Jia Zheng as soon as he arrived in Beijing, it might make people think that he is a man who is obsessed with specialization and greedy for power. Therefore, he decided to go back to Beijing to make some repairs. After a day or two, Jia Zheng read Lin Ruhai's letter.
It would be appropriate to visit him later.
Jia Lian seemed to understand Jia Yucun's thoughts, and did not force it. He just asked: "It's still a mile or twenty miles away from the capital. Is it cheap, sir?"
"Brother, I won't bother you. I still have some travel expenses. I'll take my leave."
After Jia Yucun finished his courtesy, he bowed, then turned around and strode away, which was quite free and easy.
Jia Lian watched him go away and thought to himself that if this guy didn't go bad, he would be a very charming person.
Shaking his head, he ignored him and went to the boat to pick up Daiyu. After packing everything up, the long procession headed towards the capital.
Daiyu knew that the Duke Hou Men's house was full of people with mixed views and rich aspirations. Now that she had arrived at his house, she knew that her grandmother wanted to take her to stay temporarily, but she didn't know that she had defected to his house.
Come.
Therefore, after getting off the boat, she secretly made up her mind to pay more attention to everything and never let others underestimate her.
After getting on the sedan chair and entering the city, I looked through the screen window at the street outside. Sure enough, the prosperity of the streets in the middle of the capital and the abundance of people were unparalleled anywhere else.
After walking for another half day, she suddenly realized that the surroundings were much quieter. She quietly opened some gauze curtains and saw two large stone lions squatting on the north side of the street.
Those who obeyed. The main door was not open, only the east and west corner doors had people coming in and out. There was a plaque on the main door with the words "Edict to build Ningguo Mansion".
After walking forward for a while, there were also three gates. Daiyu was thinking about it when she suddenly felt that the team stopped. After a while, she saw Jia Lian riding a horse and came to her sedan and said: "Sister Lin, we are already here. Here
This is our home. Sister, please follow them in, the old lady can’t wait to see her."
Daiyu said hurriedly: "Brother Lian, don't you want to go in with us?"
"I'm going to see my father first."
Jia Lian said something, seeing that Daiyu seemed to be reluctant to let go. Although he knew that she was new here and wanted a familiar person by her side to help her, Jia Lian was still very happy in her heart.
Finally, more than three months of hard work paid off, and the little girl already regarded him as a trustworthy person.
Seeing Daiyu nodding and silently lowering the gauze curtain, Jia Lian smiled again and said, "By the way, there is one more thing for me to ask my sister."
"Brother Lian, please tell me."
Jia Lian smiled and said: "I will ask Xiang Ling to follow my sister in to see the old lady later. As you know, Xiang Ling is weak and timid. Sister Lin has seen people in big battles, so she has to help take care of her. Don't
Let other people scare her."
In the sedan, Daiyu sniffed for no reason. What, she is the guest, so she was actually asked to help take care of Xiangling!
But why do I still feel a little happy in my heart?
After thinking about it, Daiyu replied like this: "She is not my girl, how can I protect her? If Brother Lian is afraid that others will scare her, he should go and protect her himself."
"Now that my sister has agreed, I'm relieved."
Seeing Jia Lian saying such words, he rode away and Daiyu stamped her feet angrily.
Why did she agree? She didn't believe that Jia Lian didn't hear clearly, so he must have done it on purpose. He was really a cunning and hateful person.
Even so, Daiyu decided in her heart that if Xiangling was really in trouble later, she would help her as a way of returning a favor to Jia Lian.
After Daiyu, Xiangling and others' sedans entered the west corner gate, Jia Lian withdrew his eyes and looked at the remaining few carts of things. Except for two and a half carts of famous Jiangnan wines, the rest were all gifts he had bought for his family.
Asking Zhou Rui to arrange to move all other things to his own yard, Jia Lian called Zhao'er, Xing'er and others, filled the two carts with forty jars of wine, and drove across the courtyard to the east.
The reason why he intercepted ten jars of wine was that he could taste it slowly in the future, and also to tell everyone that he did not deliberately use strong wine to kill his father, but was simply being filial...
…
In the Rongqing Hall, Daiyu and Jia Mu, one was sentimental and the other was old and longing for her relatives. When they met, they couldn't help themselves. They both held their heads and cried. If not for the comfort of others, one of them would have cried out.
Don't stop until you come.
Jia's mother has not seen her granddaughter since she was born. Now that she has finally seen her, she is overjoyed. She also sees Daiyu's slender beauty and her natural appearance. She is extremely fond of her.
Seeing that Daiyu only brought a wet nurse and a little girl to serve, she knew that this was Lin Ruhai's sensible gift. When Daiyu came to her, all life matters were naturally arranged by her grandmother.
At that moment, he decided to arrange the people who had served Daiyu well according to the example of Yingchun and others, and also gave Daiyu a very sensible and loyal girl named Yingge, who was renamed Zicuckoo.
After giving the order, Jia Mu was holding Daiyu, preparing to take care of her beautiful granddaughter. When she saw a girl coming up from the hall, she was delicate and frail. Although her expression was a bit restrained and embarrassed, but looking at her appearance,
But it is very rare.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you look closely, you will see that she is somewhat similar to my great-granddaughter-in-law in Dongfu!
"Who is this girl?"
Jia Mu bent down and asked.
Zhou Rui's family had already received orders from Jia Lian, so she personally led Xiang Ling out. After Xiang Ling kowtowed to Jia Mu, Fang supported Xiang Ling and said with a smile, "Old lady, can you take a look at this girl?"
Jia Mu is an experienced person. Seeing this posture, she guessed that it was probably the woman Jia Lian was looking for outside.
But she was a calm person. She didn't say anything first, but smiled and said, "Bring it here and let me take a closer look."
Zhou Rui's family then brought Xiang Ling to Jia Mu. Xiang Ling was about to bow to her again, but Jia Mu had already grabbed her and looked Xiang Ling up and down with squinted eyes.
Even Jia Mu couldn't find anything bad about Xiangling's appearance. What's rare is that although she is delicate and frail, she has no pretentious and kitsch temperament.
"She is indeed a good girl. Where did she come from?"
Jia Mu took the lead in asking, but in fact many women in the hall also had the same guess as Jia Mu. They all knew that Jia Lian brought the woman from outside, and since Jia Lian dared to bring it back to show Jia Mu, she was very fond of her.
Zhou Rui's family specially gave everyone time to guess, and then smiled and said: "Speaking of this girl's origin, it is a bit strange. The old lady doesn't know. This girl's life experience is also very pitiful..."
Zhou Rui's family told Jia Lian that he went to Nanjing to visit relatives and friends. By chance, he was kidnapped and the process of saving him was slowly told.
There is nothing to hide about this matter. Almost everyone who went to Jiangnan on this trip knows about it.
It happened that Zhou Rui's family wanted to sell well, and they deliberately told bizarre twists and turns. Everyone in the hall was as if they had heard something from a book, and everyone was amazed.
Jia Mu also asked: "How could it be such a coincidence that Brother Lian happened to bump into you?"
"No, I heard from the people below that the second master personally sent the kidnapper to Yingtian Mansion for this matter. The master of Yingtian Mansion also thanked the second master, saying that he helped him solve an unjust case.
Woolen cloth."
Jia Mu nodded and looked at Xiang Ling with a bit more pity.
"In this way, this child is indeed pitiful. But now that she has arrived at our house, that's all. Generally speaking, Feng Yatou and Brother Lian are both good people, and they will never treat her badly."
Everyone agreed with Jia Mu's words. Then Jia Mu remembered that she had neglected her precious granddaughter. She quickly held Daiyu in her arms and said with a smile: "Go and call all the girls. There are visitors from far away today. Call them."
