When Chain 2 and Huan 3 returned to Rongguo Mansion with a group of happy girls, they were shocked by the high-pressure atmosphere permeating the mansion.
what happened?
Ping'er, who was following Wang Xifeng, quickly found out the reason and had a strange expression on his face when he reported it.
"Grandma is not well. When Mr. Bao was eating wine outside, he was stimulated and vomited blood and fell into a coma. He still hasn't woken up yet!"
The group immediately looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The originally happy atmosphere was swept away. Lian Er and Huan San, as well as Xue Pan and Jia Lan immediately went to the Phoenix Egg residence to visit.
Wang Xifeng took Li Wan, Sanchun and Xue Baochai back to the backyard first, and then went to visit the phoenix eggs together after a while.
Lin Daiyu followed her father Lin Ruhai back to the Lin Mansion, thus avoiding an embarrassing trouble.
"Today's experience at Third Brother's, especially the invitation to the flower viewing party by Prince Chu's concubine and Mrs. Qiu, it's best not to take the initiative to talk about it!"
After today's banquet, Wang Xifeng finally saw Jia Cong's 'strength', and naturally leaned towards the big room where Jia Cong was.
Of course it is impossible to say that she has no feelings for the girls.
I really don’t hope that because of the phoenix egg, the good opportunity for the girls to be called will be ruined, and even unspeakable targets will be meted out.
Her good aunt Mrs. Wang's methods are really no joke.
The Sanchun sisters and even Xue Baochai were shocked when they heard this and nodded in agreement. They were not stupid. At least they knew that the old lady and the second wife didn't like them to 'show themselves in public'.
As for the reason, they didn't know it, but it didn't stop them from knowing.
Even Tanchun subconsciously planned to hide it from Mrs. Wang for as long as possible.
With some calculations in mind, the girls dispersed with their personal maids, without causing the slightest disturbance in the mansion.
…
On the other side, after sending away all the guests, the small courtyard where Jia Cong lived finally returned to its deserted state. The tables, chairs, benches, and cups, plates, and wine cups were all taken care of by the maids and mothers. The nanny Li and her son did a pretty good job of directing them, at least nothing happened.
Basket.
"Master, Mr. Liu wants to see you!"
At this moment, the young man Wangcai trotted over and reported in a low voice: "He said he had something important to discuss with the young master!"
"Then bring him to the flower hall in the middle hall!"
Jia Cong nodded, waved his hand and walked slowly towards the flower hall in the central hall. There was no wave in his heart, and he was not interested in Liu Xianglian's so-called 'important matters'.
He just didn't expect that he sent an invitation to this guy's house casually, thinking that he was not in the capital, so he didn't want to take the initiative to come to congratulate him today, which was considered as enough face.
But, he never expected...
"What, you want to marry my sister to welcome spring?"
Jia Cong was stunned for a moment, then roared angrily: "You bastard, how dare you peek into the inner house, I will kill you!"
The anger was raging and the momentum was strong. He glared at his feet and jumped into the air, like a tiger descending from a mountain in the blink of an eye and swooping down. He clenched his fists and slammed them down like a meteor falling to the ground.
At this moment, he really had murderous intentions!
"Don't be mistaken..."
Liu Xianglian's face changed drastically. She didn't expect Jia Cong's reaction to be so violent. He took action without any room for mercy and instantly covered a distance of ten feet, bringing him an extremely terrifying death threat.
Without caring about anything else, he jumped back and forth, making fists with both hands and punching out in succession, hoping to block Jia Cong's angry thunder blow.
Click!
The four fists collided fiercely, and only the crisp sound of broken bones was heard. Liu Xianglian only had time to let out a shrill scream, and received two powerful punches on the chest. Her figure, which was still in the air, flew upside down like a rag.
Out of the flower hall.
When Jia Cong rushed out of the flower hall with unabated anger, Liu Xianglian was already covered in blood and fell two feet away with severe injuries and was unconscious. Judging from her weak aura, she might be in a bad situation.
The huge movement naturally attracted the attention of nearby servants, but they were all stopped by Wangcai, the young man standing outside.
He asked the boy to fetch a basin of well water, but without any intention of treating Liu Xianglian, he poured it directly into the comatose head.
There was a clear sound of rushing water, and Liu Xianglian, who was seriously injured and unconscious, immediately woke up and met Jia Cong's cold and cruel eyes.
"I want an explanation, otherwise you will be dead!"
Jia Cong's face turned cold and he asked the boy Wangcai to bring a stool and sat down in front of Liu Xianglian who was seriously injured and fell to the ground.
It can only be said that this boy's martial arts is good, at least he has reached the middle stage of Ming Jin, otherwise he would not be able to withstand his furious blow.
Since one blow didn't kill him directly, let's give him a chance to explain.
Liu Xianglian felt pain all over her body, and at least several bones in her chest were broken. The pain caused by talking caused cold sweat on her forehead, and blood kept flowing from the corners of her mouth.
Beat him to death directly.
"I was, when I was going to the toilet, I accidentally saw Miss Yingchun, and I was immediately shocked, shocked..."
Finally, he finished speaking intermittently, ignoring the severe pain in his body, and his face actually showed a look of surprise.
"Hmph, I hope you won't lie to me, otherwise today will be the day you die!"
Jia Cong's face was still cold, and he did not believe Liu Xianglian's explanation. Instead, he asked General Wangcai to call in all the women and maids who were guarding the gate of the back house and near the toilet, and confronted Liu Xianglian who was seriously injured.
After the interrogation was over, it was revealed that Liu Xianglian had indeed seen Yingchun accidentally, and was not a prodigal son peeking into the back house. Then the suspicion on him was cleared, and almost half an hour had passed.
It has to be said that the vitality of a guy who is successful in martial arts is tenacity. During this period, this guy just didn't faint again and his mind remained clear and rational.
At this time, Jia Cong sent someone to invite the most famous doctor nearby to treat Liu Xianglian, who had been moved to a hospital bed and changed into hospital clothes.
As for an apology, it doesn't exist at all.
Who told this guy to speak so suspiciously? At this time when a girl's reputation is of great importance, his actions are considered to be light.
He was lucky not to be killed by Jia Cong's furious attack.
Liu Xianglian knew it well and had no intention of blaming Jia Cong for taking action in anger. After the doctor helped treat the wound, wrote down the treatment prescription and left, she felt a little embarrassed and asked: "Brother Jia, Sister Ling and I
Things..."
"shut up!"
Jia Cong was sitting on a chair ten feet away from Liu Xianglian's hospital bed. When he heard this, he snorted coldly: "You have no fucking brain. If there are rumors that you and sister Yingchun have a private relationship, I will chase you to the ends of the world.
I will also crush you to ashes!"
Liu Xianglian was startled, her face suddenly turned pale, and she was shocked by Jia Cong's stern warning.
But he was unwilling to do so. He was directly beaten and seriously injured because of this matter. In addition, he really fell in love at first sight with Yingchun, whom he had only met once, and wanted to fight for it again: "Nah, that..."
"If you have any ideas, ask your elders to come forward!"
Jia Cong stood up and said coldly: "Parents order matchmakers to say, don't always talk about certain things, it will appear that you are too uneducated!"
After saying that, she turned around and left. Liu Xianglian's face turned red with anger and she coughed repeatedly but could not utter a rebuttal.
Jia Cong talked about the pain in his heart. At this time, Liu Xianglian was in a state of being without a father or a mother. She had an extra aura of the world and did not consider the influence of the world.
"Wang Cai, send someone to inquire about Liu Xianglian's family situation, as well as her usual behavior and conduct!"
When going out, Jia Cong ordered: "Inquire in detail and make sure there are no mistakes or omissions!"
"Master, are you really..."
Wangcai wanted to speak but stopped, but the meaning behind his words was very obvious.
"It's not like we can't consider it!"
Jia Cong spoke leisurely, waved his hand and left directly, leaving only a look of inexplicable wealth on his face. He didn't understand what was going on?
To be honest, Jia Cong doesn't have much affection for sister Yingchun. It's because she had too little contact in the past, and she's not a sibling, so where can the friendship come from?
Helping her solve the nanny's problem before was just a matter of convenience.
Of course, Yingchun's fate in the original novel Red Mansions was too miserable. If there was a chance to change it, he wouldn't mind helping.
Not to mention that the eldest master paid Yingchun 5,000 taels of silver to pay off his debt. She was the only girl in the Rong Mansion, besides Xue Baochai, who got married in a sedan chair and was given away by a matchmaker.
How old was Yingchun then?
She is probably nineteen and almost twenty, a veritable old girl. When it comes to her reputation as a good friend, she is not even as good as Xia Jingui, the family troublemaker.
As for the wolf grandson Shaozu's family in Zhongshan, he only lived for more than a year. It was entirely due to his personality that he could not stand up on his own. Of course, the Rongfu's ruthless refusal to help and support was also one of the reasons.
Jia Cong had never thought about this before.
However, after being reminded by Liu Xianglian, I became interested.
Yingchun is one year older than Baoyu, and now he is in his sixteenth year.
According to the customs of Daqing, you can get married at this time, but there is no movement at all from the mansion and the eldest master. If it drags on any longer, something may happen.
Regardless of whether the old lady intended to keep Yingchun as a spare tire for the Spring Festival or not, since Jia Cong had already thought about it, he would naturally have some considerations.
Liu Xianglian is actually a good choice!
The most important thing is that Jia Cong is confident that he can control this guy, and he is not worried about what he will do.
With Yingchun's gentle and submissive temperament, if she didn't have the support of her mother-in-law, problems would sooner or later occur.
Compared with Sun Shaozu, who was born in the Xishan border area, Liu Xianglian's family situation and character are much easier to find out, which is the so-called "knowing the roots".
As far as Jia Cong knew, he had no high-ranking officials, was not doing well in his life, and probably did not pay much attention to the official lineage of the Duke of Liu.
As long as there are no problems with his personality, Jia Cong thinks he is a good marriage partner. As for Yingchun's opinion, it doesn't matter at all, okay?
If Yuanchun's position in the palace is stable and Rongguo Mansion's power is strong in the past few years, if it is properly operated, Yingchun will not have no chance of receiving a title...
