The Rose of the Red Chamber

Chapter 123

Jia Jing's life is a colorful life, but also an extremely sad life.

It is said that he is colorful because he gave birth to a famous dandy and prodigal son in the forty-nine cities in his early years, and in his middle age he gave birth to a fairy who has experienced a lot of calamities.

Of course, the former is well known and the latter is unknown.

In his later years, when his legs were raised, it happened to give Jia Zhen a good reason to go back to the south.

It is said that Jia Jing's life is sad, but it is really sad.

There is a son and a daughter under her knees, but none of them is sad.

Let’s talk about Jia Zhen first, why did she go back to the south for no reason?It can't be said that the longer you stay in the capital, the more afraid you become.

What a good reason for Fu Ling to return to the south.

The face has it all.

At this moment, Jia Zhen is not without regrets in her heart.Why do you think he handed over the Xijue paper so early?

With this title, wouldn't it be more dangerous for him to go back to the south?

Let's not talk about Jia Zhen's animal attributes.It only said that when Xichun heard the news of Jia Jing's death, it took him a long time to realize that the one who went was her own father.

This cannot be blamed on Xichun.The Jia family has hundreds if not thousands. It is not easy to think that it is her real father.

This should be the most familiar and intimate father and daughter.But Xichun has never seen her biological father even once.

Ever since Xichun could remember, she knew that her own mother had gone, and her own father was practicing Taoism outside the city.

Then, there is no then.

One was imprisoned in the inner courtyard, and the other was a small drug dealer who was doing three things in a Taoist temple outside the city.

When she knew that her own father was gone, Xichun was still anxious and stunned for a long time.Then there were two lines of tears in his eyes.

Although she has never seen her before, although she has never been close to her, Xichun knows that the person who should love her the most in this world is gone.

Are you sad?It doesn't seem like much.

Maybe it's more lost.

Wearing hemp and filial piety, a group of people hurried out of the city in a car.

Because Jia Jing disappeared outside the city, Jia Zhen made up her mind, so she didn't pull her back to the city, and then held a funeral before pulling her back outside the city.

In this Ningguo Mansion, when Xi Jue Zhezi was planning to return to the court when he left the capital, Jia Zhen did not dare to hold any funeral for her father in Ningguo Mansion.

People are fearless when they are ignorant.

Jia Zhen really has no identity or power to rely on.

It is said that she is the imperial concubine in the palace, and she has no close relationship with his branch of Ningguo Mansion.

Besides, even if it is close, that imperial concubine is such a person who does not care about nostalgia.If you say you're going to split up, you're going to split up. Who has ever seen such a cruel woman.

Alas, when the Provincial Court was built, their Ningguo Mansion paid a lot of money and land.His family's well-established Huifang Garden was abruptly lost by half, and in the end they did not reap any benefits.

well!He always thought that the old lady of Rongguo Mansion was such a wise person, but he didn't expect that her eccentric second wife was worse than him.

As long as Jia Zhen thinks about these things, she will feel troubled. Looking at her own father's funeral, she also understands that Jia's family is really in trouble.

After all, the Lin family is also the in-laws of the Jia family, although Lin Ruhai is very dissatisfied with the Jia family under the complaint of the Lin family siblings and Zhen Yinglian.

However, as an old scholar of Confucianism, Lin Ruhai took his children back to the city to attend Jia Jing's funeral.

The mourning hall is very deserted, and those who come here are all juniors or only come to take care of things.Even the road sacrifices held according to etiquette were not held when everyone knew that the Jia family would not return to the city for the funeral.

There is no white in the capital at all, as if Jia Jing's funeral has really reached the point of insignificance.

No, that's almost true.

Coming out of Jia's family temple, Lin Ruhai felt a little emotional.When he and his son were riding on the official road back to the city in the carriage protecting Daiyu, the little depression in Lin Ruhai's heart was instantly wiped out by Chang Tuo who was waiting by the roadside.

With a soft snort, Lin Ruhai drove forward, "I have seen Shunchang Hou." He didn't say a word of unnecessary words.

Chang Tuo looked at Lin Ruhai who was so indifferent to him that he was in a frozen state, and felt a deep sense of helplessness in his heart.

Since the 'indecent' incident, the way Lin's father and son looked at him and treated him has deeply hurt him. The contempt in the eyes and the attitude are so obvious that it is difficult for people to ignore it.

"I'm passing by here and I'm about to go back to the city. Master Lin is also going back to the city. Why don't we go together." If you want something, then don't care about his attitude, Chang Tuo extended an invitation to Lin Ruhai in a good-tempered manner.

For today's chance encounter, he spent a lot of time inquiring about the news.

He knew the relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family, so after hearing that Jia Jing had poisoned him to death, he immediately sent someone to watch the Lin family's actions.As soon as their family leaves the city, if they have a carriage, they will report it immediately.

Sure enough, not long after, Chang Tuo inquired about the news that the Lin family father and son had escorted a carriage out of the city.So I packed myself up and guarded on the only way back to the city.

How long has he not seen that Miss Lin?It seems that it has been a long time.

He went into the palace to ask his uncle to marry him, but his uncle was still watching his jokes.

Thinking of Miss Lin, all Chang Tuo's reluctance seemed to be gone.

All that's left is a slice of sweetness.

Her every frown and smile, her every move, always touches her heartstrings.As long as she smiled to herself, he could forget everything.

When I was studying in the past, Chang Tuo always thought that the phrase "the six palaces have no color, and the emperor will not go to court early" was an exaggeration.But now he really felt the truth of that sentence.

As long as she is willing to smile to herself, no, no, as long as she is willing to look at herself.

Even if she doesn't want to look at him, it's good to let him look at her.

Chang Tuo used to always laugh at Liu Xianglian's humble love, but at this moment, he understood his jealousy.

If he also has Liu Xianglian's ability, maybe he will watch by her window every night.

Even if she never knows...

He regretted it in his heart, regretting that he shouldn't treat Miss Jia San so unreasonably.

Now he also wanted to understand that it was because his attitude angered that Jiasan girl, so that Jiasan girl disgusted herself before "determined to die".

At the beginning, he thought that a woman like Miss Jia San was not suitable for his good brother, but emotional matters are like drinking water, and he knows whether he is warm or not.

The girl didn't do anything, and my brother ran to the backyard without any rules.Fortunately, I was still thinking that if my brother had something, I would kill Miss Jia San and bury him with him.

Chang Tuo clenched his fists, wishing he could slap himself twice.

The goddamn self can't stand it anymore.

Heart to heart, if he dies one day, he sincerely hopes that the girl of the Lin family can live a better life and let him go with peace of mind.

If my uncle had done what he thought at the beginning, he would probably be ungrateful, or even resentful.

If he wants to live a good life alone, even if she doesn't give her this happiness by himself, he is willing to do so.

Love. Love is indeed a tormenting thing.

......

Lin Ruhai glanced at Chang Tuo, and cursed him inwardly.

Why pass by here, when he doesn't know his Sima Zhao's heart?

How dare a person with such a bad character miss their Lin family girl?

Hmph, even if he keeps his daughter at home all the time, he can't marry her to him, which will ruin her life.

"Don't dare, dare not, I still have female family members here, it's inconvenient to go with foreign men, so I ask Lord Hou to go first."

Lin Ruhai is also an old fritter in the officialdom, so he naturally understood why Chang Tuo came, so he directly blocked him with this question.

When Chang Tuo heard this, he was choked helplessly.But he didn't dare to say anything, and after thinking about it, he said, "Master Lin, please, I still have some things to do here."

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai didn't care that he made a bow directly and walked past him with his children.

Seeing the Lin family's convoy passing by, Chang Tuo unhurriedly followed behind.

Even just looking at the carriage she was riding in was good.

So along the way, the Lin family's convoy was driving in front, and Chang Tuo led the team behind.Knowing that Chang Tuo was following them, Lin Ruhai ignored them, and only talked about some important points in the Four Books and Five Classics to his son.

Meeting Chang Tuo on the road, Daiyu didn't happen once or twice.Whether Daiyu is out of the mansion to sit on a guest, or to go out to offer incense, she can always meet Chang Tuo.

Due to the defense between men and women, Daiyu never spoke to Chang Tuo. Occasionally, when she got off the carriage, she took a look and could always see this man's burning eyes following her.

Sitting in the carriage today, knowing that the man was following behind his carriage again, he frowned slightly, feeling a little impatient in his heart.

It's really annoying to be entangled like this.

Let people know, how many gossips are going to gossip about her.

Chang Tuo didn't know Daiyu's worries at all.But because of Liu Xianglian and Tanchun's affairs, he pays attention to this point.Every time, I am very careful not to let anyone gossip.

She was afraid that someone would say something that would make Daiyu angry and troubled.

Along the way, he looked straight at the carriage in front of him, with a smile or two on his face from time to time.The servants of the Marquis of Shunchang had long known what their marquis was thinking, and after feeling a lot of emotion in their hearts, they took the initiative to help their marquis hold the reins so that no accidents would happen to their marquis.

After returning to the city, Chang Tuo turned and left with regret on his face as he watched the carriage drive into the Lin residence.

Do you want to learn Kung Fu from Liu Xianglian again?Even just hearing her voice is good.

Jia Jing's funeral was carried out outside the city, and Jia Zhen was going to take Jia Jing's coffin back to the south.Before he set off, he discovered that his responsibility for this trip was very heavy.

Because Jiamu and her party left in a hurry, they didn't take the coffins in the temples of the two prefectures of Rongning and Ningxia.Jia Zhen thought for a while, and then asked someone to hire a boat to bring back all the coffins from Jia's capital line.

Let's not talk about the lineage of Ningguo Mansion, just talk about Rongguo Mansion.

There are Jia Daishan who was originally married to Da Shi, there is Jia She who was originally married to Da Shi, of course there are Jia Daishan and his wife, and...

Looking at these, Jia Zhen discovered that this is the history of the rise and fall of their Jia family.

Speculation is not as good as future generations.

After Jia Zhen sighed for a while, she went back to her cabin and prepared to contribute to the reproduction of Jia's family.

......

"I only recently found out that Chang Tuo Xinyue is a girl from the Lin family. I really never thought that such an arrogant person as him would have such a lack of arrogance." Liu Xianglian, who came over from Xishan Daying routinely that night, sat opposite Tanchun and followed Tanchun. Share his little discoveries.

Tanchun was practicing sketching with a charcoal smile. Hearing what Liu Xianglian said, he raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Is Xinyue not arrogant? Or is Xinyue Lin sister not arrogant?" Tanchun pursed her lips and chuckled, she had already Guessed it.

Liu Xianglian chuckled, "He's as proud as two to five to eighty thousand. He didn't expect to have someone he likes in his heart, so he acted coyly, like a little daughter-in-law. The other day we had wine, It's windy and rainy for a while. It's no worse than that sour scholar."

"He also has today, which is really rare."
