Just when Jia Cong received Phoenix Egg Jia Baoyu and the Sanchun sisters and his entourage in the residential courtyard, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious, Rongqing Hall was also discussing this matter.
"Yuanyang, Baoyu and the girls have all gone to Brother Cong's place in the eldest house!"
The old feudal lord of Rongguo Mansion, who also stood at the top of the power pyramid of Rongguo Mansion, was leaning on the couch and speaking casually.
"Yes, old lady, Second Master Bao and the girls have already made an appointment with Third Master Cong, and I'm afraid they've already arrived at the place now!"
Yuanyang answered softly, and smiled without knowing what he thought of: "I don't think Third Master Cong actually wrote a story book at such a young age, which attracted Second Master Bao and the girls to take the initiative to visit him as the author!"
“Children’s playful behavior cannot be tolerated in a dignified society!”
But the old lady didn't take it seriously, her tone was calm and not disturbing at all, and she said quietly: "He should study hard at the clan school now, instead of being distracted by writing some miscellaneous books!"
Obviously, as the person in charge of the highest power in the Rongguo Mansion, she understood the storybook "Young Heroes", and she disapproved of it and was a little unhappy at the same time.
Yuanyang did not dare to speak, but felt sorry for Jia Cong in her heart.
If the old lady is unhappy, Jia Cong's life will not be easy.
By the way, Jia Cong is really overconfident. He didn't even notify the old lady in advance about such a big thing as publishing a book. What does he want to do?
There is also the factor of Mr. Bao. The old lady will never allow the concubine of the eldest son to overshadow Mr. Bao in the limelight.
It’s not easy for Jia Cong to pass smoothly!
…
On the other side, Mrs. Wang, the second wife, also noticed Jia Cong.
"I didn't expect that a concubine from a wealthy family would actually have such abilities!"
As for the fact that Jia Cong published a story book, Mrs. Wang, who was almost illiterate, didn't pay attention at all.
It's just that a mere concubine from a wealthy family has gained limelight and even slightly overshadowed Baoyu. This is what she finds hard to accept.
"Madam, I heard that Mr. Huan is the follower of Mr. Cong, the eldest brother!"
As confidants, Zhou Rui's family naturally wanted to share the Lord's worries and reminded him: "Don't let Mr. Huan become wild!"
This guy is quite vicious.
Mrs. Wang pondered for a long time and then said slowly: "It's hard to interfere in the affairs of the big house, but Huan'er must be restrained!"
…
Jia Cong and Huan San didn't know that the two most powerful bosses in Rongguo Mansion were already targeting them.
Here, except for Jia Baoyu who always looked unnatural, Jia Cong and his sisters were chatting very happily.
After sending all the warblers away, the small courtyard where they lived returned to its previous peace. He couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head, saying, "Lingque, don't forget today's reading task!"
The little maid who was happily cleaning up the room suddenly looked bitter, but unfortunately she didn't have the guts to object to such a task.
By the way, this era is quite unfriendly to women. Don’t talk too much about nonsense like ‘it is a virtue for women not to have talent’.
Most of the maids in the house are Miss Fu, and as a result, not many of them are literate.
Jia Cong doesn't care about so much. Since he has started, he will not stop easily.
Soon, the clear and melodious voice of the little maid came from the remote small courtyard of the General's Mansion, making the dark night seem even more peaceful.
…
As Jia Baoyu and a group of girls took the initiative to visit, Jia Cong was keenly aware of the slight change in the attitude of the servants of the General's Mansion.
I am more respectful and respectful...
He didn't care much about this.
He originally planned to take it easy, but the looming peeks from the second room and Rongqingtang made him change his mind about continuing to keep a low profile.
Especially after Huan San was banned by Mrs. Wang under various excuses, and was banned from copying Buddhist scriptures, he understood that it was impossible for him to keep a low profile.
Since you can't keep a low profile, let's just let go and go big.
As long as the old lady's bottom line is not violated, I believe that this most powerful person in the Rongguo Mansion will not go too far.
Even if he is really disliked by the old lady, isn’t there still a great master?
Although every time he met him, he was inevitably scolded, and this guy was really cruel when he scolded his son.
But Jia Cong was keenly aware that he seemed to have a nickname for his ability to write "Young Heroes". The elder didn't say it on the surface, but it could be inferred from some traces that he was in a pretty good mood.
That's good!
He has no intention of relying on the elder, which is very unreliable.
But as long as the big boss doesn't object to his behavior, he can speed up certain actions and show off in an alternative way as soon as possible.
Not irritating the sensitive nerves of the big boss in the mansion, but gradually gaining the right to speak, this is his goal in a short period of time.
…
Before Jia Cong could take action, something big happened in Rongguo Mansion, which attracted all the attention of the old lady and the second wife.
After more than a year of 'traveling', the mother and son of the Jinling Xue family finally arrived in the capital. They didn't even have time to put their luggage, so the first thing they did was to visit Rongguo Mansion.
The second wife in power, Mrs. Wang, naturally took it very seriously. She brought a group of girls and Jia Baoyu, the Phoenix Egg, to greet her at the second door. She also opened the side door of the mansion, which was quite grand.
This matter has nothing to do with the big house. It is impossible for Jia Cong to go and stand guard to greet him, and it is impossible for his second wife, Mrs. Wang, to ask him to go there.
Mrs. Xing went to join in the fun while eating.
When he came back, he was very unhappy in front of Jia Cong. He made harsh and harsh remarks about Wang Xifeng's hospitality to the Xue family's mother and daughter, and finally said disdainfully: "What's the big deal? Don't you have to rely on Rongguo Mansion to gain a foothold?"
Jia Cong was funny. Of course, he was quite happy with Mrs. Xing's behavior.
At least, this embarrassing person representing the eldest family was not dazzled by the wealth of the Xue family, which was widely spread in the house. Apparently, the flower dew business in the past year gave her a little more confidence.
As expected, the Xue family stayed in Lixiangyuan of Rongguo Mansion. Anyway, the whole Rongguo Mansion was in an uproar. Of course, this had little to do with Dafang and Jia Cong.
However, when he returned to the small courtyard where he lived, he heard the nanny Li talking about the famous palace flower and Lin Daiyu's sharp retort. Jia Cong just laughed it off.
But it wasn't long before he couldn't stay out of it.
Not long after the Xue family went to Beijing and stayed at Lixiangyuan of Rongguo Mansion, Xue Pan and Xue Da Lengzi, accompanied by their second grandfather Jia Zheng, entered the Jia Clan Academy in a swagger.
Tsk…
Looking at the tall but chubby Xue Dalaizi, Jia Cong felt a little unhappy. The arrival of this guy was definitely not a good thing for clan studies.
It's not that I'm worried that this guy will take away the position of the leader of the clan school, but that this guy spends money lavishly without a certain amount of money, and he's a sweetheart, so he can easily cause trouble.
It seems that this guy needs to know the rules of the Jia clan, otherwise Jia Cong will have a headache in the future...
