But at the banquet, Jia Rong first sold out Wang Xifeng, and finally complained half-truly and half-falsely that this aunt always "pays lip service but never delivers the truth," completely treating herself as an easy victim.

Perhaps out of similar instincts, Jiao Shun had long sensed that this guy had evil intentions towards Wang Xifeng, and even more understood that his words were a hint to him to gain some benefits.

Thinking that Youshi had just broken his own child and wanted to rely on Jia Rong, Jiao Shun couldn't refuse. He only smiled proudly and said: "It's hard to say if you can benefit from me, wait until I can stand firm in the Secretary's Office."

If you don't know the heel, you can make a lot of money just by letting out some rumors."

Because he had dealt with Jiao Shun a lot, Jia Rong also knew that the Department of Affairs was a key point of communication. Any major actions of the Sixth Department of the Ministry of Industry could not be hidden from him as the chief, and the promise of generosity to the court was obviously better than that of Wang Xifeng.

The benefits of white teeth are easier to realize.

The most important thing is that this matter can continue smoothly!

He couldn't help being happy for a moment and hurriedly raised his glass and said: "Thank you uncle for taking care of me. Thank you uncle for taking care of me. My nephew will do it first!"

When Jiao Shun also finished his glass of wine, Jia Rong said attentively: "But I don't know how uncle is going to deal with that Feng Lazi? If it can be of use to my nephew, I will have nothing to say!"

Jiao Shun shook his head slightly: "I haven't thought about this yet - but if I want to use you in the future, I won't be polite to you."

Although he said so, he actually couldn't trust Jia Rong at all.

The You family matter is a family scandal of the Ningguo Mansion. Even if Jia Rong spreads it, it will only hurt the enemy eight hundred and himself a thousand, and will not benefit him at all, so there is no need to avoid this guy.

But Wang Xifeng...

What he hates is that Wang Xifeng pays lip service but doesn't live up to his words. If Feng Lazi is willing to reward her with some sweetness, or even commit herself to him, Jia Rong is afraid that she will turn against him immediately!

So after a few perfunctory words, Jiao Shun changed the topic: "By the way, it's such a cold day, why is Brother Zhen not in the house?"

As he talked, he secretly wondered whether he should sell Jia Rong first, so as to cut off Jia Rong's escape from jumping left and right.

But how could Jia Rong know that he was full of thoughts of 'repaying kindness with hatred'?

He picked up a piece of braised deer tail, put it in his mouth and chewed it, saying: "There is a new foreign woman in the Sifang Pavilion who leaves the door ajar. When the master got the news, he took people to show off our country's prestige."

Jiao Shun: "..."

How can Jia Zhen, with her small physique, still show off the prestige of our country?

Are you afraid that it will embarrass Daxia?

Although he didn't say it clearly, the expression on his face didn't cover it up.

Jia Rong saw the disdain on Jiao Shun's face, and explained with a smile: "The master has brought enough Chunfeng Yulu Pills. Besides, he doesn't intend to fight alone. He specially invited several men to help with the volleyball and volleyball. He said he wanted to

Let’s set up a mandarin duck array for that foreign woman to see.”

Jiao Shun was speechless again when he heard this.

The good mandarin duck formation was so ruined by them that Qi Jiguang's coffin board could hardly hold it down!

Seeing that Jiao Shun had been silent, Jia Rong thought that Jiao Shun was also thinking about the foreign woman, so he encouraged her: "Uncle, we might as well try something new someday, and let the foreign woman see what a real big deal is."

What is Xia Xiongfeng like?"

"What's so new about this?"

Jiao Shun rolled his eyes with a respectful expression on his face.

He has no prejudice against foreign girls, but the quality of those who are willing to come to Xia Kingdom to hunt for gold these days is definitely not much better.

"how?"

Jia Rong asked curiously: "Uncle, have you ever seen that foreign woman with yellow hair and green eyes?"

Speaking of this, Jiao Shun got into a good conversation. He tapped the wine glass with his chopsticks and commented: "These Western women mature early, age easily, and have a short flowering period. They have a strong taste, rough skin, and heavy body hair. If they are not spoiled, it will be difficult to grow rich."

Chubi

"Jade, how can a woman from a wealthy family manage such a business? Even if there are a few hidden gems in the ocean, they will definitely be like stars holding the moon in their country, how can they come all the way to our Daxia to work as prostitutes?"

Jia Rong couldn't help but believe what he said so clearly, so she frowned: "Based on what uncle said, doesn't this foreign woman have lost her head?"

"Not really."

Jiao Shun chuckled and said: "I heard that Marquis Baoling is going to Europe to serve as minister. At that time, I will ask him to look for a few people whose families are in dire straits. If Daxia asks us to provide financial support nearby, it must not be difficult."

This topic obviously appealed to Jia Rong's taste. After that, the wine table was full of words that broke the rules of etiquette and made people unable to bear to read it.

…………

at the same time.

Jia Baoyu, who had had a few drinks somewhere, tiptoed into Sister Lin's boudoir.

Seeing Lin Daiyu meditating on her pen at the desk, Baoyu wanted to get closer and scare her, but unexpectedly he saw a dozen pieces of manuscript paper spread out on the table, with many poems and couplets written profusely on them.

"Huh?"

Baoyu couldn't help but wonder: "Sister, has the poetic nature suddenly come to you? Let me see what good lines there are!"

As he said that, he went to get the poem manuscript on the table.

"ah!"

Lin Daiyu was startled at first, then quickly gathered the manuscript paper in her arms, turned around and said angrily: "You are scaring me again, huh~ I will never pay attention to you again!"

As he said that, he carefully organized the manuscript papers and locked them in a bookcase on the side.

During this period, she seemed to have thought of something, her brows and eyes were smiling like a spring breeze.

Jia Baoyu became more and more curious and kept asking: "What good thing has happened to my sister? Tell me quickly!"

Lin Daiyu raised her orchid finger, gently poked her peach cheeks as smooth as gelatin, tilted her gaze at Baoyu and said, "There is indeed a good thing, but..."

"But how?"

"It's just that the more good things are, the more I worry about being ruined by you."

"Okay, you tease me!"

Jia Baoyu reluctantly stepped forward to play, while Lin Daiyu fled and dropped a string of silver bells in the house.

Zicuckoo, who was making soup outside, peeked at the scene and couldn't help but smile like an aunt.

For a while, Lin Daiyu was caught and tickled by Baoyu, and she had to beg for mercy: "Okay, okay, I'll just tell you, but you must keep it secret. If the news gets out, it will be difficult for Sister Xing and I."

"Is it related to Sister Xing?"

Jia Baoyu was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but tighten his hands a little more: "Since she married into the Jiao family, I have never seen her again, but I wonder how she is doing now?"

“Excellent!”

Daiyu threw off his control, facing Baoyu's concerned face, she said sourly: "Although Brother Jiao is from a poorer background, he is someone who knows both coldness and warmth, unlike some people... Huh, don't you listen?

Did you hear that happy news?"

When Jia Baoyu heard that Xing Xiuyan had not been wronged, she immediately felt relieved and raised her hands in a gesture of surrender: "Listen, sister, say it quickly, say it quickly!"

Only then did Lin Daiyu talk about the poetry club.

When Baoyu heard this, he scratched his head and scratched his head with joy, and clapped his hands repeatedly: "This is good, this is good, you can not only discuss poetry and express your temperament, I think this is serious business!"

As he said this, he started running around in the room like an ant on fire: "I wish I could set up this poetry club tomorrow... no! Tonight!"

"I just said I couldn't tell you."

Lin Daiyu sneered and said seriously: "Sister Xing said that the whole family is now preparing for the Queen's wedding. If we start a poetry club at this time, there will inevitably be gossips - she is not afraid, it's a big deal.

Just hiding in the Jiao family, how can I avoid ridicule?"

"Sister, don't be upset, I was the one who made the mistake!"

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he quickly apologized, and then complained dejectedly: "If the family is so involved, I'm afraid that both of us are uncomfortable, so it would be cheaper to go directly to the palace to visit my sister."

Unconsciously speaking of Versailles, he couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Xing is such a talented person, but she just happened to be Brother Jiao's side room. She is really a pearl covered in dust - I still remember when we took the topic of investigating things, she

The poem "Ode to the Pu Fan" can be said to be the greatest simplicity in the world: The nature of things in the world is initially undetermined, but after a hundred refinements, it becomes hard and soft around the fingers. How can nine summers turn into three autumns after being woven with Pu Su Sutra?"

Until now, Jia Baoyu had to admit that Jiao Shun was a talented and promising man, but he always believed that such a vulgar, unlettered man who was passionate about fame and fortune was not worthy of the talented and beautiful women in his family.

I didn't want to wait until I finished reciting Xing Xiuyan's poem while shaking my head, only to find that Sister Lin's expression changed and she was staring at him with evil eyes.

Jia Baoyu was suddenly startled and asked sarcastically: "Sister, what's going on?"

"What's wrong?"

Lin Daiyu said angrily: "If Sister Xing hears you disparaging Brother Jiao like this, I'm afraid she and I won't even be able to be sisters!"

With that said, he stamped his feet and faced Baoyu, twisting the handkerchief and pressing his lips tightly.

"Good sister, I didn't mean it!"

Seeing this, Jia Baoyu hurriedly went to her to beg for mercy, but she turned her head to avoid him again.

After doing this again and again, Jia Baoyu became angry and couldn't help but beat her chest and cry: "I obviously didn't mean it, but why don't you understand my heart!"

"Of course I don't understand your heart."

Thinking of the group of matchmakers who came to her door every now and then, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but sneer again: "You are thinking about this today and that tomorrow. If you don't take advantage of your wishes, you will talk about being secretive. How can all the good women in this world be like this?"

Will I be willing to be taken over by you alone?!"

"I never meant that!"
To be continued...
