[Although Lao Ao’s updates are not great, the story is still well thought out, so... you still have to vote for the monthly vote! 】

But Jia Zhen and Jia Rong had held a banquet early in the backyard flower hall, just waiting for Jiao Shun to come to the banquet to bring up the old matters again.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, the last person who came was Yindie, and the sentence: Uncle Jiao said that he would eat at home today, so as to take the opportunity to see the children more.

After Yindie left, Jia Rong couldn't help complaining: "This Jiao Shun is really getting more and more presumptuous!"

After saying that, seeing Jia Zhen pondering without comment, Jia Rong thought that he had expressed his feelings wrongly, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "If he doesn't come, my son will just have a few drinks with you. Otherwise, when you go to Jiangnan, you won't be able to be a mourner for a while."

Already."

With that said, Jia Zhen poured a full glass of wine, but Jia Zhen still had no reaction.

So Jia Rong tentatively suggested: "How about calling the newly purchased dancer in the house to add to the fun? Or let the little actor..."

"Confused!"

But Jia Zhen suddenly turned down her face and scolded: "There are already some rumors in the house now. It's too late for us to cover it up, but you rush to tell the truth!"

After a pause, he added: "You have become more and more careless in doing things recently. In my opinion, it is better to focus on Brother Qiang this time - last time he went to the south to purchase young actors, I will do it as soon as I see it."

Very appropriate.”

When Jia Rong heard the first sentence, she felt that she really shouldn't make random suggestions, but when she heard the second sentence, she suddenly realized.

Brother Qiang has been going to the master's house these past two days. Originally, I thought that the master couldn't bear to let him go, so he planned to dote on him unexpectedly - but now it seems that this little monkey clearly wants to 'conspiracy to usurp the throne'!

He already lacks prestige in the mansion. If his father really appoints Brother Qiang to lead the team, the accompanying servants will definitely follow his lead. Then won’t all the benefits he coveted before be wasted?

Thinking of this, Jia Rong was so anxious that she couldn't sit still. She only regretted that Jia Zhen was still a beast and not thorough enough. Otherwise, father and son would become incompatible with each other, wouldn't they...

Uh~

I probably can't beat Brother Qiang. After all, Jia Qiang is well-known in this circle in terms of appearance, experience and skills.

Fortunately, although he is a bit behind in terms of male sex, he still has a trump card that he can't use!

At that moment, Jia Rong first admitted his mistake and said that he really shouldn't call outsiders to come near at this time, and then deliberately sighed: "It's a pity that Mrs. Xu has returned to her parents' home, otherwise her son would have called her to come over to serve dishes and pour wine, so there would be no need to worry about anything going wrong."

vent."

Just as Jia Zhen raised her glass to moisten her throat, she subconsciously paused when she heard these words, then slowly drank the glass of wine and gently placed it on the table.

While Jia Rong was pouring wine again, Jia Zhen pretended to be nonchalant and asked: "Why is your wife going back to her parents' house at this juncture?"

"Hey~"

Jia Rong put down the wine bottle and sighed helplessly: "She insisted on going south with me. I scolded her a few times, so she lost her temper and returned to her parents' home, saying that she would not come back if I didn't agree.

Already."

"Is there such a thing?"

Jia Zhen frowned and scolded with a stern face: "She is not a child anymore, why is she still acting like this? You are going to do something serious this time, how can you take a woman on the road!"

"My son said so too."

Jia Rong first agreed, and then said: "But since the master is going to let Brother Qiang lead the team, my son has nothing to worry about. Even if he does take her, it won't delay the business."

When Jia Zhen heard this, she finally understood that this little beast wanted to use her daughter-in-law as bait so that she could keep her title of team leader. She couldn't help but secretly cursed at such an unfilial and rebellious son for being so fussy with her own father!

However, Jia Rong miscalculated this time. Jia Qiang took the initiative to get close to Jia Zhen in the past two days, not to compete for the authority of the person who went south to talk, but to do everything possible to stay in the capital.

And Jia Zhen knew that he was reluctant to let go of the little actor named Ling Guan'er, so she refused to agree. When she said that she wanted Jia Qiang to lead the team, she just wanted to appease Jia Qiang so that he would go to Jiangnan obediently.

He didn't promise Jia Qiang anything.

Therefore, Jia Zhen secretly scolded her for being unfilial and rebellious, and then pretended to be reluctant and said: "Ms. You is all about that bastard now. You can't let me take care of the trivial matters in this family, right? Come on."

Come on, just leave your wife to take charge of things in Beijing. As long as there are no mistakes in Nanbian's business, I don't care about who of you is in charge."

With that said, he raised his glass again and drank it all in one gulp.

Chief?

I'm afraid the main thing is sexual intercourse!

But after hearing this, Jia Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned forward to help his father fill up the wine for the third time. He took the initiative to raise his glass and clink it with Jia Zhen, thus covering up the scandal of arrogating his wife and removing her ashes.

The coffin is finalized.

Just after finishing the wine, Jia Rong found that his father was still frowning, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why are you worried about something today? Why have you been frowning since just now?"

"It's just for the business in the south."

Jia Zhen wiped away the aroma of the sweet wine in her mouth and said in a low voice: "Although this Jiao Donkey is also a lustful person, he has always been able to maintain a superficial attitude, but now he refuses to meet me. Could it be that he refuses to meet me?"

Are you determined not to facilitate us?"

Jia Rong thought the same thing.

Although Jiao Shun always came for Youshi, he never refused when his father and son wanted to treat him to dinner, but this time...

After pondering for a moment, Jia Rong couldn't help but wonder: "Is it really as big as a donkey?"

As he spoke, he swallowed secretly.

It seems that a philanthropic person like him has many experiences with beautiful features, and it is inevitable that he would like to hunt for novels occasionally...

Jia Zhen glanced at him and sneered: "Take your dirty intestines away. If he is good at this, will he still get your turn?"

Jia Rong felt disappointed when he heard this. After a while, he speculated randomly: "Maybe the Ministry of Industry really ran out of stock?"

Jia Zhen shook her head slightly: "I have inquired before. Except for a few maritime merchants who already have ships, there are not that many people who dare to take the risk to go to sea. Otherwise, the prices of those goods that are in short supply on the market will at least double!"

As he said that, he waved his hands in disgust and said: "Forget it, what's the use of telling you this? As long as you can make some progress in your official career, why should I be manipulated by a slave?!"

Jia Rong secretly rolled his eyes when he heard this, and thought to himself, this is really like a monk scolding a bald man. You are holding the title of a third-grade general, and you have achieved nothing by becoming a forty-year-old man?

…………

Not to mention the dirty father and son.

But he said that since Yindie was sent to deliver the message and it was not easy for outsiders to see Jiao Shun here, Youshi could only lead his mother and sister to prepare the dishes in person.

Seeing that they were busy opening food boxes, Jiao Shun naturally would not learn to sit still like men these days, so he stepped forward and took out the bowls, chopsticks, cups and plates, scalded them with hot tea, and placed them around the small table.

Mrs. You loved his thoughtfulness and became more and more determined to imitate Empress E's daughter-in-law. However, when she was bringing the last dish to the table, she happened to find that Mrs. You had already left no trace, so she arranged the second sister You next to Jiao Shun.

Seeing this, You couldn't help but smile to himself. It seemed that the eight hundred taels of nugget gold were not given away for free. There were people who were more impatient than herself.

She sat on the other side as if nothing had happened. Just as she was about to ask her mother and sister to sit down, she suddenly heard a child in the next room suddenly crying.

Youshi frowned, because Yindie hadn't come back yet, so she stood up and told Jiao Shun a few words before going in to coax the child.

When Mrs. You saw this, she hurriedly said that she wanted to help, and followed You into the inner room, leaving Jiao Shun and Sister You alone outside.

Second Sister You couldn't help but become nervous. She lowered her head and couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Jiao Shun, but her eyes met Jiao Shun's.

Their eyes met, and she lowered her head hurriedly, her heart pounding like a deer stumbling around.

At this time, I heard Jiao Shun ask with a friendly and unobtrusive smile: "Why is my sister not wearing those earrings? Could it be that I am not taking advantage of you?"

"No, it's not!"

Second Sister You shook her head hurriedly and whispered: "The things my brother gave me are valuable. My mother was afraid that I would lose them accidentally, so she put them away."

As he spoke, he unconsciously expressed a bit of complaint.

Jiao Shun laughed when he heard this: "It's just a dead object. What's more valuable than gold? I would say that my sister's appearance and willingness to wear it are the result of its previous life."

Hearing Jiao Shun praise her appearance, Second Sister You felt her heart tremble more and more. She subconsciously turned around and turned to face Jiao Shun without wanting to speak.

With this twist, the originally thin spring shirt became tighter and tighter, until it was wrapped around the round waist to form half of a peach shape. Jiao Shun was amazed when he saw it, thinking that the two sisters were not related by blood, but they had a good figure.

About seventy or eighty percent similar.

However, in appearance and temperament, the two are quite different.

When you don't talk or smile, your temperament is cold, and you look like you've been living on top of others for a long time.

Second Sister You, on the other hand, is coquettish and timid, with a pair of wet and affectionate eyes, she doesn't speak or smile, and she looks like she is acting coquettishly, making people pity her.

While Jiao Shun secretly looked at her beauty and figure, he took two more stepping stones from the 'treasure bag' in his hand, spread them out and sent them to Sister You, saying: "I came in a hurry today, and I didn't know that my sister

Here, I haven’t prepared anything, just use this gadget to relieve my boredom, just don’t dislike it.”

This was originally something Jiao Shun bought for Qingwen a while ago - Qingwen had grown her nails before, but when she and Jia Baoyu broke up, she bit off her nails and threw them to Baoyu.

As a result, when Qingwen saw this thing, she remembered what happened that day, so she refused to accept it no matter what.

Jiao Shun had no choice but to keep it in his bag and prepare it. Fortunately, he needed it today.

Although Second Sister You's face was flushed with embarrassment, she still looked at Jiao Shun's palm for the first time, and saw that it was actually a pair of gold-cut finger cots with hollow jade. The larger one was engraved with the Five Blessings and Longevity, and the smaller one was engraved with the Five Blessings and Longevity.

The five poisons chase each other. Looking at the workmanship, you can tell that it must be a precious thing.

Second Sister You couldn't move her eyes away for a moment. She originally wanted to pretend to shirk it, but now she forgot about it.

Seeing that Second Sister You was breathing heavily, Jiao Shun knew that he had complied with her wishes, so he couldn't help but push further. He reached out and grabbed Second Sister You's cattails and said, "I'll put it on my sister and see if it fits."

Second Miss You's hands trembled, and when she was about to struggle, she saw Jiao Shun holding the golden thing and putting it on her fingers, so she couldn't bear to avoid it.

Jiao Shun put the big one on Sister You's ring finger and the small one on her little finger. He didn't notice whether it fit or not, but he fumbled with the jade-white little hand several times.

At this moment, I heard Mrs. You in the room laughing and saying, "It's me who is the best, and I have a lot of energy. I'm afraid I'm too anxious to wait outside."

This was a deliberate reminder to the two people outside that he and Youshi were about to come out.

Sister You hurriedly took out her hand, not even bothering to take off the finger cot, and hurriedly hid it under the table.

Jiao Shun, on the other hand, acted like a normal person, pouring himself tea and drinking it.

You raised the curtain and went outside. Seeing the two people trying to hide themselves, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Jiao Shun, and then Tingting sat down on the other side.

As soon as I sat down, I heard a crisp sound under the table. It was Sister You who went back to take off the finger cot. She did it blindly in a panic. As a result, she used too much force and pulled out the little finger cot.

It hit the thumbtack.

Youshi walked over. The second sister You, who was looking at her, became more and more panicked and ashamed, as if someone had caught her on the spot. She wished she could bury her head under the table.

You couldn't help but glanced at Jiao Shun again, and then said with a smile: "What good thing did my sister get again? Stop hiding it, take it out quickly and let me open my eyes."

Sister You felt her face was hot when she pointed it out to her face. She subconsciously glanced at Jiao Shun, hoping to get Jiao Shun to give her an idea.

But Youshi kept urging: "Why, do you still have to let sister search for it?"

As he said that, he rolled up his arms and sleeves and peeled off two sections of pink arms.

Sister You was forced to have no choice but to take out the two finger cots.

Youshi didn't think anything of it, but Mrs. You on the side stared straight-eyed. If she was in front of Jiao Shun and Youshi, she would have stretched out her hand to snatch it from her eyes.

"So this is it."

Youshi glanced at Jiao Shun again and said jokingly: "If you wear this thing, my sister will not be able to do any work in the future - what, are you planning to support her for the rest of her life?"

As soon as these words came out, Second Sister You seemed to have burned her hands. She wanted to return the finger cot to Jiao Shun, but halfway through the handing, the speed slowed down visibly. Her reluctance to give up was palpable.

Youshi sighed secretly when she saw this. She originally wanted to help with the matchmaking, but she didn't expect that her little hoof would have sunk in already.

That's all, since that's the case, there's no need to hide it anymore.

She stood up and walked around to Second Sister You, put her arm around Second Sister You's shoulders and said sternly: "I'm not saying that my sister is really easy to trick - let's not talk about other people, only the old man and the young one in this house.

There has always been no respect for others in front of me. The fault is that the third sister changed her temper and blocked it. I am afraid that you have long been reduced to the plaything of his father and son. At that time, let alone marrying into a good family, you are like Brother Jiao.

, I’m afraid I’ll all dislike you.”

Jiao Shun interrupted: "What do you mean I'm like this?"

You Shili ignored him and continued to say to Second Sister You: "But the third sister is about to go to sea again - now I give my sister two ways to go, or she will cut off all contact with this house from now on and find an honest person.

If you get married, you won't be ruined by those two ungrateful people; or you can just set them up and wait to enjoy a lifetime of wealth and glory!"

This statement is really misleading.

First of all, with the relationship with Ningguo Mansion, it is not difficult for Second Sister You to marry into a wealthy family; secondly, being trapped by Jiao Shun's things, although she can enjoy glory and wealth, she can only be a concubine or a slave from now on. A nameless outer room.

If Third Sister You were here, she might have exposed this scam on the spot, but Old Lady You and Second Sister You were both fascinated by the golden finger cot. How could they still tell the good guys after hearing You being so bewitched?

Second Sister You opened her mouth slightly and hesitated. Although she didn't say a word, the answer was already written on her face.

Youshi put the ring back on her while the iron was hot, and said with a smile: "After dinner, my sister went with me to clean up in the small courtyard. No one has lived in it for several months, and I don't know what's going on."

Sister You, like a puppet on a string, nodded in confusion and ate her meal without knowing the taste.

When Youshi took her to go to the small courtyard, Jiao Shun originally wanted to follow, but Youshi stopped her and mysteriously told him to leave in two quarters of an hour.

But after waiting for Jiao Shun for two quarters of an hour, he impatiently picked up a lantern and found the small courtyard, only to find that it was completely dark inside with no light at all.
