Chapter 116: Giving Grace(1/2)
Chapter 116: Showing Favor
Zhang Lingjun walked a little slowly, she really didn't have much strength left.
She was tortured all night last night and had to get up early to say hello today, which was a bit overwhelming for her.
Jia Rong took her to Jia Jing's residence and paid her respects to Jia Jing.
Jia Jing gave the two people cinnabar, "This product has the effect of prolonging life. If you eat it, you will definitely be healthy until you grow old."
Jia Rong:Are you sure?
In the original novel, you always ate too much cinnabar and were poisoned to death.
Zhang Lingjun took it and thanked Jia Jing respectfully.
"Go to your mother's yard." Jia Jing didn't like the excitement, "Pindao will go back to the Taoist temple later. If you have anything to do, feel free to go to the Taoist temple to find Pindao."
Jia Rong said a few more greetings and took his wife to Youshi's courtyard.
Holding her little hand, she led Zhang Lingjun out, "Put this thing away first, don't touch it for now."
"Yeah."
Her voice is relatively soft, perhaps because she is not familiar with it yet, so she does not dare to speak loudly.
Xichun, Qin Keqing and others were waiting there early.
Xichun looked at the two of them happily.
Qin Keqing forced a smile, maybe because she was too tired from the banquet, her face turned pale.
Youshi is also exhausted, having been entertaining guests these past few days.
"Here is tea, sir and madam."
Jia Rong took his wife over to serve tea to the two elders.
Jia Zhen's hands were shaking and she couldn't hold the tea cup, so the maid took the tea and gave him a sip.
Suddenly Jia Zhen raised her trembling hand and knocked off the tea cup.
"Ah, Master!" The maid knelt down and begged for mercy.
Jia Zhen shouted to Jia Rong: "Wow, just stand up..."
He couldn't hold his tongue straight and couldn't speak clearly, but he could bite some words accurately.
This sounds like a curse word.
Jia Rong was unhappy and gave Youshi a serious look.
Youshi immediately hinted to the maid and asked the maid to push the master back.
The eldest girl and the rough lady pushed Jia Zhen away.
Jia Zhen seemed unwilling to leave and kept spitting out words.
It's a pity that no one understands it.
You took the tea from Zhang Lingjun, took a sip and said, "What a good tea, what a good wife."
"Here, this is my gift to you, this is the gift from the master."
The gifts given by Youshi were all given to her by Jia Rong. Now she reciprocates and gives the gifts back to Jia Rong.
Youshi smiled and said: "I am not feeling well and my temper is not very good. Don't be offended, Mr. Ling."
"Thank you, madam.
My daughter-in-law will definitely serve my wife and master well from now on."
Youshi looked at Jia Rong out of the corner of her eye and saw a change in Jia Rong's face, and she knew it.
Jia Rong doesn’t want her daughter-in-law to get close to the master.
Youshi smiled and said, "Just take care of my brother from now on. You don't have to worry about things in this yard."
"Now that you're here, sister Xichun won't have to work so hard."
Xichun then said: "I'll leave this family matter to you."
Zhang Lingjun looked at Xichun and saw how beautiful this girl was.
There are several pink pearls alone.
It is said that husband-in-law loves his aunt and is the first to choose good things for his aunt. Now it seems that he is right.
Zhang Lingjun held tea and said, "Auntie, please have some tea."
Xichun took the tea, took a sip, and let Caiping deliver the gift.
"These are rolling balls from Jiaodong. There are eighteen balls in total, also called eighteen balls. I hope you will be safe and sound."
The beads on the roller are full and shiny, with a hint of pink. These are rare pearls.
It is really rare to be able to collect eighteen pearls of the same size and luster.
Even the empress in the palace may not have this treasure.
Zhang Lingjun was about to refuse, but was stopped by Jia Rong, "Just accept my aunt's wishes."
"Thank you very much, aunt."
Next is Qin Keqing.
Qin Keqing is an aunt, so there is no need to kneel to her.
Jia Rong picked up his wife and introduced Qin Keqing to Zhang Lingjun.
Zhang Lingjun: What a beautiful woman!
Even though I fell in love with her, I felt a bit of love and pity in my heart.
This woman was supposed to be engaged to her husband, but she later broke off the engagement and accidentally entered the master's room.
Zhang Lingjun was on guard and did not dare to get too close to Qin Keqing.
Jia Rong said a few words to them, and then took his wife to Ningguo Mansion to meet Jia Mu.
The people in Ningguo Mansion are also complete. In order to show the importance to Jia Rong, Jia Zheng, Jia She and others are all here.
I remember when Lin Daiyu entered the Jia Mansion for the first time, Jia Zheng and Jia She did not see Lin Daiyu even when they were in the Jia Mansion.
Today, Jia Rong brought the bride to meet her, and the two of them went to Jia Mu's place to wait in person.
Jia Rong took his wife to visit them one by one and introduced their family members to her.
Although Jia Baoyu did not dare to stare at the bride all the time, he always peeked at her from time to time.
Wang Xifeng: "This new daughter-in-law is really good-looking, pretty and pretty. It's no wonder that Brother Rong is so obsessed with her once he sees her that he has to have her."
"Ancestor, look, another beautiful one has come to talk to you. You, one pistachio has left, and another has come."
"Hahaha." Jia Mu was amused by Wang Xifeng.
Jia Baoyu is unhappy. Sister Lin has only been away for a short time, and you have already forgotten her.
It’s really heartless.
Jia Baoyu despised herself again. It was only when someone mentioned Sister Lin that she remembered her.
After sitting in Rongguo Mansion for a while, Jia Rong took the bride back.
There were many guests staying at home, and he needed to entertain them.
The bride also has to go to Youshi to learn the rules.
He would go to entertain distant relatives, wealthy businessmen who were attached to Ningguo Mansion, and minor officials.
There were not so many people in the past, but since he passed the Jinshi exam, he has many more relatives.
Have a meal with you at noon and see off some nearby guests.
Guests from far away have to wait until the New Year before returning.
I went back and took a nap in the afternoon, and waited for Li Cong to be released from office in the evening.
He asked Li Cong to go to the study.
"Do you want to go to Yangzhou?"
Li Cong was overjoyed and sat up straight unconsciously, "Is there still a chance?"
"My dad said there are no more places.
Gu Ming and his family are all looking for connections to stuff money and want to go to Yangzhou.
Gu Ming also said that the chance is slim."
Jia Rong said she knew.
"Grandpa Lin's place has three places, and I asked him for one. If you are willing, I will let you go."
Li Cong was so happy that he never expected that the pie would fall on his head.
