Chapter 23

86_86438 On this day of the Spring Festival, Tanchun was playing chess in the house, when Xiuju suddenly came in from outside and said with a smile: "Girl, the third master has brought something to the girl again!"

Yingchun stood up hurriedly, and saw Jia Cong commanding two tall and thick women to carry a green sandalwood chessboard in and said with a smile: "I got this a few days ago. I asked someone to prepare it before sending it to my sister.

"Reading at midnight." He looked at the room again and frowned, "Sister, this room is too small."

Yingchun said angrily: "Why are you too young? Who asked you to bring things here every day? You have never been too young before."

Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "Can you blame me? Those ladies and grandmothers all sent me so many dazzling things, and I don't like them." He then said depressedly, "Why didn't anyone give me a pair of bows and arrows?"

Yingchun Tanchun laughed when he said this: "You give someone a prescription, what does it mean if they give you a gift in return?"

Mother Xu, who was beside Yingchun, flattered her: "Now in the whole house, only the third master is the most generous, and the second girl has straightened her waist."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "You said I am generous. It seems unreasonable not to reward you for your ideas." He asked Hongxiu to give her a purse. Now Jia Congque is not short of money for anything. As long as he is in a good mood, he can reward people.

Ji Fang Hong Xiu himself is already a rich man, and he also knows that their father is rich, so he doesn't stop him.

Xu's mother smiled like an old chrysanthemum and said, "It's another waste of time for Third Master to reward you." She happily took the purse and hid it in her sleeve.

After Na Xu's mother went out, Jia Cong told Yingchun: "Sister, please be more generous. Our house was originally full of snobs, but now that my sister is not short of money, why not reward them more? It's better to greet them with a smile than to greet them with a smile.

It's better to feel comfortable with a black face every day. To be honest, except for your own flesh and blood, there are a few people who are kind to others from the bottom of their hearts, no matter what they mean." Jia She and his uncles and soldiers have never stopped working on logistics.

Because Jia Cong spent more time with Jia She and went to the mansion in the south of the city more often, he became richer and richer, and the money smuggled to Yingchun naturally increased.

Yingchun glanced at him: "That's all, I just got a few extra money, and I just want to waste it every day."

Jia Cong hummed: "Problems that can be solved with money are not big problems."

Tanchun looked on with great envy. Jia Cong was now able to support the table for Yingchun. Whenever he came to see his sister, the servants wanted to show his face. They already knew that Mr. Cong was on the second floor.

When they were in the girl's house, anyone who flattered the second girl would be rewarded with money. Yingchun himself often rewarded people, but it was known that Jia Cong might not have given much to his sister secretly, not counting the occasional gifts.

Jia Huan is obviously still a year older, but he is not even on the stage.

Jia Cong looked at him and understood immediately, feeling a little embarrassed. He had turned on the plug-in. How did Jia Huan compare? Because he turned to Hong Xiu and Si Qi and winked. The two understood and hurriedly hurried into the room.

The little girl went out and closed the door again. The two of them were guarding outside.

Jia Congyin whispered to Tan Chun: "If Brother Huan has trouble learning calligraphy, how about letting him sneak into my room to learn martial arts from time to time behind the back of the second master? The second master doesn't despise martial arts at all, and everyone knows it. If he comes here to follow

Yao'er is learning martial arts. Yao'er is just a bodyguard or a child, and the second wife may not stop him." He said and winked at Tanchun.

Tanchun was so smart that he understood immediately. He stood up and saluted him with tears in his eyes: "If this is really possible, your brother will be entrusted to you."

Jia Cong waved his hands repeatedly: "Third sister, don't be like this, I feel bad too. We are all raised by our aunts. If we don't rely on ourselves, who can we rely on?"

Tanchun burst into tears immediately.

He added: "It's just that Aunt Zhao is talkative and loves face very much. The third sister can't force her to agree with her. The third sister is smart and tries to coax her. In order for Brother Huan to gain fame in the future, she has to keep her mouth shut."

It's sewn up. You can endure it for a while and be happy for the rest of your life."

Tanchun nodded: "I know that. Huan'er is her best friend, and others just pay it forward. Is there anything else she can't do for Huan'er?" There was a hint of sourness in her words.

Jia Cong thought of countless analyzes and comments about Tanchun in later generations, and felt uneasy, so he gave a few more instructions: "I know that the third sister's life is probably not much better than that of my sister before, and I also know that under the second wife's nose,

It’s been a hard life. Now I just have to say a few more words to ask for your forgiveness for offending my third sister.”

Tanchun saw that what he said was serious and said hurriedly: "Just say it."

Jia Cong calmed down his thoughts and said: "Now, regardless of whether the second wife really loves the third sister or not, just think that she is really good. Even if she has great abilities, she is just a housewife. The third sister wants to rely on her

She, stop dreaming. The same goes for Aunt Zhao. Although she is favored by her second uncle, it is nothing more than that. When things get serious, who does she mean? The third sister wants a good husband in the future, and she has a husband.

Ge wants to have someone to rely on, and there is no one else except Brother Huan. I am not saying that Brother Baoyu will be unkind to the third sister, but he is too charitable: when he meets a good person, he will just give it up, but when he meets a bad person, he has nothing to do, so don’t count on him

Fighting for you or arguing over something - he is powerless to fight back. The third sister is a smart person. I still said what I just said: problems that can be solved with money are not big problems. The third sister thinks about it for herself

." After saying this, he bowed his head and immediately turned to Yingchun and said, "Sister, I want new clothes."

Yingchun just told him that he was stunned and was still thinking about it. After hearing this, he quickly said: "I'll do it for you!"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "My sister is the best."

Jia Cong always makes a very clear distinction in terms of titles. Jia Lian is the second brother, and Jia Baoyu is Baoyu brother. Sometimes during the Spring Festival, the second sister is called the second sister. Recently, more and more people call her sister alone. When Tanchun Xichun is preceded by three or four, she must be added.

Two words.

Tanchun thought about it for a long time and said: "Since Brother Cong is talking about this, I can't be ashamed now. One day I will leave this house, and it's my big business. I'm afraid my aunt will say too much."

No; only our wives make the decision. It’s not that I don’t care about my aunt, you know, how can they get on the stage? What can I expect?” After saying this, the tears had already soaked the embroidered handkerchief.

Jia Cong shook his head repeatedly and sighed: "I only think that the third sister is ambitious. Am I wrong? It would be fine if you really have no ambition."

Tan Chun said hurriedly: "Although you are young, Cong'er, you are smarter than us. People say you are a good-luck boy who was born in this world. Please tell me, I am stupid and don't understand very well."

Jia Cong said: "Third Sister, today's world is dominated by men, and women, regardless of their talents, are confined to the inner house. This is helpless. Even if Third Sister is dissatisfied, I'm afraid she won't be able to change much in recent years.

.”

Tanchun burst into tears again.

"Therefore, when the sisters discuss marriage in the future, most of them will not look at talent, appearance and moral character - that is deceiving; rather, they will look at family, father, and brothers. Now, the third sister's family and father have been decided.

There is no way to change it. Only brothers are still a variable. No matter how much the second wife loves you, even if she puts you in her name, you are still raised by your aunt. If you marry you, you can only help your husband's family in a limited way. What she can do

, at most, it’s just to pick the best among the people whose talent and appearance are not worthy of the third sister. However, the gap between the 'best' and the 'worst' may not be that big. This 'best' is still not worthy of her.

The third sister's talent, appearance and character. She can only have so much ability after all, what else can she do? It can bring about a big change for the third sister. This change is big enough to make the future third brother-in-law truly worthy of the third sister.

The only real person is your brother Huan from the same mother." As far as Jia Tanchun is concerned, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhao are at most a bank, and she can deposit as much as she wants, and the interest rate can be higher or lower. But Jia Huan is the GEM.

If you're lucky, if you hit the daily limit for n times, your entire value will be different.

He glanced at Yingchun and said proudly: "I dare to say that when my sister comes out of the palace in the future, she will be no worse than any daughter-in-law of the family, and she will have a long line of talents at her disposal! It's because I myself have been treated coldly.

That's why we are willing to work hard and fight." Looking back at Tanchun, "Third Sister feels that because Brother Baoyu is so favored and raised in such a comfortable life, there is a chance that he will go to court.

Fighting for fame? If he doesn’t fight for fame himself, how can he fight for status for his third sister?”

Tanchun is horrified to say that. Yes, Baoyu treats his sisters very well. However, Tanchun also knows his temperament. How can he be willing to go to court to fight for fame? It would be good if he can keep the wealth of this family.

Jia Cong added: "Brother Huan and I are not very familiar with each other, and I am not sure that he will be successful in the future. However, now he is the only person who has the possibility to change the fate of the third sister. Except for him, everyone else has limited abilities, no matter what

It's Brother Baoyu or his second wife. Compare hearts to hearts and exchange hearts for hearts. People's hearts are made of flesh. After all, you two are flesh and blood. No one else can compare with you. He is only one year older than me."

After saying this, he said no more, turned around and pestered Yingchun for a handkerchief and a purse as if nothing happened. Yingchun made him cry after saying two lines early, and naturally he wanted to give him what he asked for. The two of his siblings had been arguing for a long time.

, turned around to see Tanchun still in a daze, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sisters, it's a pity that we were born on the wrong day."

Yingchun asked hurriedly: "Why was he born on the wrong day?"

Jia Cong smiled bitterly and said: "It's nothing. It's just that I feel... it's a pity. If one day I can have the final say in the court, I will ask my third sister to be the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."

Tanchun burst into laughter when he said this: "Why isn't he the Prime Minister?"

Jia Cong said: "If you're not afraid that Third Sister will annoy me, you still can't be considered a prime minister."

Tanchun asked hurriedly: "In your opinion, who is the most talented prime minister?"

Jia Cong said: "Of course it's me, Mr. Lin. I've already become my master anyway, so what's the harm in becoming my disciple again?"

"It turns out it's her." Tanchun nodded and said, "Sister Lin is very popular with me." Yin asked with a smile, "Where is the second sister?"

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Sister, with her temperament, it would be better to work with me as an aide."

Yingchun said with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with being a staff member. It's more comfortable. It's not like having so many accounts to calculate as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, which dazzles your eyes."

Jia Cong spread his hands: "What did I say?"

Tanchun was just about to speak, but at this moment, the outside was red. Xiu said loudly: "Hello, Miss Lin!" and opened the curtain again.

I saw Daiyu walking in with a smile in her new crimson clothes. It turned out that the boy who delivered the letter had just returned from Suzhou. In addition to a letter from home, he also brought her a small box of utensils and two pieces of new clothing materials for Lin Ruhai.

Everyone who greeted the spring and visited the spring laughed: "At first glance, the color looks like an official robe. Prime Minister Lin is here! Welcome Prime Minister Lin."

Daiyu was puzzled and asked them why they were laughing.

Tanchun stepped forward, bowed, and said with a smile: "Cong'er said that he would be able to preside over the court in the future. He only gave me a minister of household affairs, but he wants to worship you, Sister Lin, as the prime minister."

Lin Daiyu was in a good mood at the moment. When she heard this, she became very ambitious and blurted out: "If you really worship me as your prime minister, I will protect you thousands of miles away!"

Tanchun waved his hands hurriedly: "Don't talk nonsense, keep your voice low."

Jia Cong said, "Third sister is really disappointed. They are just some naughty jokes. Who would take them seriously?" He then extended a fleshy little slap to Lin Daiyu and said, "Mr. Lin, let's high-five as a promise: Gentleman!

The words have been spoken——"

Seeing his seriousness, Lin Daiyu suddenly became playful and extended her palm to strike: "It's hard to chase a horse!"

"Crack!".
