Chapter 1210: The mysterious self-confidence of Jia Hu

Chapter 1210 Jia Huan’s mysterious self-confidence in the Gengzijuan

But Jia Huan looked very calm, "Third sister, if you can hide it from others, can you hide it from me? Don't tell me, I guess the servant must also know about it. Maybe the Xue family sisters and Sister Lin can also read it." Come on, you think you are covering up well, but you are just deceiving yourself."

The whole body trembled again in shock at Jia Huan's words. Tanchun's face flushed and then turned a little pale. He tried his best to maintain his composure and said sternly: "Brother Huan, what did you say?!"

"Third sister, you and I are biological siblings. Although I haven't been back for a long time, I have grown up and I have my own people in the house..." Jia Huan sighed.

I have to say that Brother Feng has had a great influence on me, so I am following Brother Feng consciously or unconsciously.

Jia Huan especially admires Brother Feng's calm, calm and graceful demeanor, and behind all this is Brother Feng's planning. He knows that he has a flaw in this aspect, and his personality is impatient and extreme, which is a major obstacle to becoming an official in the future. Brother Feng also often reminds himself that he is not worried that he will not be able to pass the Qiuwei and Chunwei exams, but he is worried that his character will offend others after becoming an official. Jia Huan is also aware of this, so he has been trying to imitate Brother Feng.

"Brother Huan, what do you want to say?" Tan Chun's face became paler.

"Third sister, I'm telling the truth, do you think Sister Bao and Sister Lin can't see it?" Jia Huan stared at her sister, "They are such smart people, living in the garden with you, how can they not see it? ?As an outsider, I can see a thing or two, but they won’t feel anything at all?”

"Brother Huan, it's not what you said..." Tan Chun felt that his rebuttal and explanation seemed so weak.

"Okay, they are not covering their ears or turning a blind eye, they are just doing this deliberately. If this level is revealed, how will you sisters get along with each other? And how should the elders in the mansion deal with it?" Jia Huan looked very calm, " Aren’t they also worried that if they really make it clear, what if the elders in the house have any ideas, and won’t they cause trouble for themselves?”

Seeing that Jia Huan's expression was calm and natural, Tan Chun was touched and thought nervously. After a long time, he slowly said: "Brother Huan, what do you mean by coming to tell me this today?"

"It's not interesting. You and I are siblings. I'm just expressing my feelings. The Xue sisters are about to marry Brother Feng, but third sister, in what way are you inferior to them?" Jia Huan's tone was a little more complicated. Excitedly, "Some people will definitely say that we are concubines, but we are also children of the Jia family. The Xue family is just a declining imperial businessman. I don't understand why Brother Feng chose the Xue family!"

"Brother Huan, you are not allowed to say that to Sister Bao and the others." Tan Chun said sternly: "Brother Feng was right in choosing Sister Bao. It was certainly a wise move for the Xue family to choose the Feng family, but it cannot be said that the Xue family is inferior. Jia Shi Wang Xue and our four families are originally in the same spirit and support each other..."

"Third sister, support each other. As for the current situation of our Jia family, have the Wang family supported us? The Shi family is doing all kinds of ugliness outside, have the Wang family ever cared about it?" Jia Huan meant that Shi Ding was afraid to return due to debts being collected outside. This family matter has become a big joke in the capital city.

Tan Chun was so stung by Jia Huan's words that he couldn't answer for a while.

The Jia family still owes debts outside the country, but they are not as anxious as when the garden was first built. However, this kind of debt cannot be hidden from others, and it also brings bad reputation. The Jia family also once asked the Wang family I have borrowed it, but was declined for various reasons. As for the Shi family, it has become a joke now. If the Xue family had not taken this opportunity to marry the Feng family and had the support of Brother Feng, they would have been lost to everyone long ago.

Now among the four oldest families, only the Wang family is the most prosperous. Wang Ziteng has always been in a high position from the governor of Jingying to the governor of Xuanda and then to the governor of Denglai. The people surrounding him are like crucian carp crossing the river, and the prince Teng Ye is far better run than Jia Zhenghui, and the Wang family is far ahead of the other three families in every aspect. The Jia family only holds the title of a two-family prince, but in fact it has long been empty.

"Okay, let's not talk about these unforeseen things. Today I am just expressing my feelings. Third sister, what do you think?"

Jia Huan's words pushed Tanchun to a dead end again. Tanchun closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Brother Huan, what if I like Brother Feng, so what if I don't?"

"If you don't like Brother Feng, go and ask your father to arrange a good marriage for you as soon as possible while your father is still here. Don't wait until your father leaves and listen to your mother's random assignments. You will even cry when the time comes. If you don’t come out and look at the embarrassing situation of the second sister now, everyone in the Sun family will know that it is a den of tigers and wolves..."

Jia Huan said in a deep voice: "If you really like Brother Feng, go over there and tell Brother Feng clearly..."

"Let's make it clear to Brother Feng?" Tan Chun couldn't help but raise his voice and looked directly at Jia Huan, "If you let me talk about such things without shame or impatience, what will Brother Feng think of me?"

"What's the point?" Jia Huan also raised his voice: "Third sister, doesn't Brother Feng know your behavior? He likes your temperament best. I know very well..."

Jia Huan's words made Tanchun take a deep breath, "Brother Huan, what you said is simply out of proportion..."

"Third sister, do you want the so-called sense of propriety, or do you want happiness for the rest of your life?" Jia Huan said bluntly: "I don't believe that if the Xue sisters didn't have a tacit understanding with Brother Feng, Brother Feng would take the initiative to go to the Xue family Proposing marriage, but how did their tacit understanding come about? How many times has Brother Feng been to our Jia family? How are they better than you? If it is Sister Lin, I can barely believe it. After all, Brother Feng also said that he and Sister Lin We are friends in adversity, and we shared joys and sorrows together during the Linqing Civil War. But what is the intersection between Sister Xue and Brother Feng? I don’t want to slander or accuse anyone of their actions. I even think Sister Xue is braver and more worthy of admiration. But what about you, Third Sister?"

 Tan Chun was a little confused by Jia Huan's words. Tan Chun tried his best to stabilize his emotions, but Jia Huan's words were like nails stuck in Tan Chun's heart.

Brother Huan's words are correct. Sister Bao is almost the same as herself. She has no special interaction with Brother Feng. They may even meet him once or twice less than she does. After all, she already knew Brother Feng when she came to Beijing. , but everyone was still young at that time and had not thought about it yet.

Although Brother Feng came to Jia's house more time later, everyone basically knew which brother Feng came, and most of the time we were together. But when did Sister Bao and Brother Feng have a tacit understanding? What made Brother Feng finally choose to propose marriage to the Xue family?

 Sister Bao is three years older than me. This may be a factor, but is there really no reason mentioned by Brother Huan? Tanchun was a little unsure.

Tanchun finally calmed down, calmed down his emotions, and his tone returned to calmness: "Brother Huan, I understand your good intentions, but you must know that marriage is the order of the parents and the matchmaker, and We need to pay attention to being well-matched. Let’s not mention the situation between Brother Feng and me, but Brother Feng is now a master of three disciplines. Not to mention Sister Shen’s family, Sister Bao and Girl Lin have both been engaged to him, especially Sister Bao. We have only twenty days to get married, and Lin Yatou is also delayed because of her filial piety. What do you think I can do in Brother Feng's current situation? I am eagerly begging to come and be a concubine for Brother Feng? "

Tan Chun's last words also stopped Jia Huan.

He actually knew very well that his third sister had no chance. It was impossible for Brother Feng to regret his marriage, and even if he regretted his marriage to either Xue Baochai or Lin Daiyu, it was unlikely that he would marry his third sister. Girls are no better than boys, so he can pass Studying for the imperial examination can change your destiny, but if the third sister wants to become a legitimate wife, she will have to choose among those poor scholars.

But how many of the poor scholars who really have some talent and are expected to pass the scientific examination and become officials are willing to marry a concubine from the declining Wuxun family?

This is no longer the Yuanxi period a few decades ago. Wu Xun's influence is shrinking sharply. He can neither improve his personal connections through family status, nor may he even suffer some negative impacts. Who would be willing? If it was a purely ordinary person, how could the third sister be willing to do so with her character?

Jia Huan lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally raised his head, his eyes still insisting: "Third sister, I still say the same thing, if you really like Brother Feng, at least let Feng know your feelings. Brother Feng knows that, as for the final outcome between Brother Feng and you, I really can’t predict it, but I’m thinking that if Brother Feng is interested in you, he will definitely have an arrangement for you. In this world, I, Jia Huan, I admire the most. Brother Feng, I believe he can find a way to solve this matter."

Tan Chun was also offended by Jia Huan's blind admiration for Feng Ziying, "Brother Huan, what else do you think you can do now? Do you think I can only be a concubine for Brother Feng?"

It's not that Tanchun has never thought about it. If the eldest sister did not enter the palace but married Brother Feng a few years ago, he could marry Brother Feng as a concubine like Xue Baoqin or Miaoyu. It was impossible for him. She was married to Brother Feng as his wife, but as his concubine, Tanchun felt a little unwilling.

Jia Huan was also speechless. They were all from official families, while the others were still concubines. How could he not know how different this concubine was from his wife and concubine before?

No matter how much he admired Feng Ziying, he still felt that it was a bit wronged for his third sister to be Brother Feng's concubine. It was just such a chance that Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu had already taken the lead, and his third sister was a concubine. What could he do?

 But Brother Feng’s popularity is at the peak of his power. He is only twenty years old. Who can predict what good fortune he will have in the future? He felt that Brother Feng had an inexplicable admiration and affection for the third sister, so he had a kind of mysterious confidence, believing that Brother Feng could give a satisfactory explanation to the third sister.

We are still adjusting and thinking about it, so we need to reduce it a little bit, and try to get out of the bottleneck as soon as possible.
