Chapter 1338: Xin Zijuan, setting sun, grass and trees

Chapter 1338 Xin Zijuan The setting sun, grass and trees, double spring

 After dinner, Feng Ziying was a little drunk, but he was still not losing his composure. He also knew that he had a mission when he came to the house today.

In addition to congratulating Jia Zheng and giving some advice, Tanchun's birthday also happened to be on this day.

It seemed that Fu Shi wanted to stay and talk to Jia Zheng.

Feng Ziying’s previous reminder still made Fu Shi feel that it would not be an easy task for his benefactor to stay in Jiangxi’s academic and political position.

  Previously, he thought that as long as he kept a low profile and tolerated it, his reputation would be a little bit bad, as long as he could survive it, but now he felt that he might have to do something and something not to do, and there were some tricks here that he still needed to be reminded of.

Feng Ziying ignored him and said goodbye to Jia Zheng and Fu Shi. Jia Zheng also knew that Feng Ziying often visited the house, so he only said goodbye to Feng Ziying in the flower hall, without being too polite.

Baoyu and Jia Huan wanted to send Feng Ziying to the door, but Feng Ziying dissuaded them and just said that they would let Jia Huan accompany them.

Baoyu also knew that Jia Huan had always regarded Feng Ziying as his disciple. Although he was a little envious in his heart, he still decided to leave and went straight back to Yihongyuan.

Jia Huan, on the other hand, walked around with Feng Ziying and chatted a little. Then Feng Ziying mentioned that today was Tanchun's birthday and she wanted to meet Tanchun.

Jia Huan was overjoyed. After all his hard work, Brother Feng was finally moved. The third sister also said it several times. Although the third sister never let go, Jia Huan could see that the third sister was interested. My sister is no longer as determined as before. At least the third sister acquiesced to the idea she proposed last time.

“Brother Feng, do you want to talk to the third sister?” Jia Huan looked forward to it.

Feng Ziying frowned, then shook her head: "Brother Huan, you and I made it so clear last time, what else are you going to do? The matter between your third sister and me, either a few words can break the knot, or I If you are interested, you must also consider your third sister’s state of mind, so don’t get entangled in it and worry about it.”

Jia Huan hesitated to speak, and Feng Ziying could only sigh: "Okay, Brother Feng is not a person who doesn't take care of you. Since you have agreed to something, you will naturally work hard to do it, but this has to be a process, and it also depends on the changes in the situation. , Uncle Zheng Shi will go south tomorrow. Do you want me to tell your father and mother today that I want to take your third sister as my concubine? Do you think they will think that I am taking advantage of the situation to force the palace, or come to harass you? The Feng Jia family But why have family friends ever needed to do things in such a hurry?"

Jia Huan also knew that he was a little concerned, but Brother Feng's clear statement still made him feel happy. He had absolute trust in Feng Ziying. As long as Brother Feng agreed, it would only be a matter of time before it would be done. It would never happen. Break your promise.

The two of them entered the Grand View Garden. Although the door was not locked yet, it had already been closed. Even Jia Huan went to call the door, and the woman at the door impatiently opened the door after a while.

However, after meeting Feng Ziying, the two women immediately turned into soft-footed shrimps. Their flattering smiles almost doubled the wrinkles on their faces, and they gathered around Feng Ziying to apologize and talk.

After Feng Ziying said she wanted to go into the garden, the two women didn't even ask any more questions. They hurriedly opened the door and invited Feng Ziying in. Jia Huan was also stunned and didn't know what to do.

The garden will be locked after Xu hour, and it will not open unless there are special circumstances. However, although Xu hour has not passed yet, Xu Zheng has passed. These two women even asked Brother Feng to enter the garden to do it. What, he just let Brother Feng in without asking when he came out. This treatment was even more attentive than Brother Bao who lived inside.

Jia Huan naturally knew the reason. The whole mansion was hotly discussing the appointment of Brother Feng as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, and everyone was talking louder than anyone else.

Jia Huan can also feel the subtle changes in the situation.

Now many people in the mansion have a vague feeling that Brother Feng seems to be the backbone of the mansion, and the figures of the two masters seem to be shrinking and fading.

Some people even regretted that the two cousins ​​married Brother Feng instead of the real lady in the house. Immediately, some people said that only the eldest girl is suitable for the real lady, but the eldest girl has long been a noble concubine in the palace. All in all, there are constant regrets and regrets. .

Feng Ziying didn't feel much about it. After becoming a co-president of Yongping Mansion, the change in status naturally caused a change in mentality. The attitudes of the people around him, those below him, and even the people he dealt with have changed a lot. Having been an official in his previous life, he quickly adapted to this subtle influence.

Of course, he will not become arrogant and arrogant, but this mentality of being a leader will naturally be reflected in his every move. He may not feel it himself, but people around him can feel it. kind of change.

Qiu Shuangzhai had to pass in front of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. When Feng Ziying and Jia Huan passed by the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, they both subconsciously slowed down their steps. Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened. After crossing the Fengyao Bridge, the two of them felt a little more relaxed. .

Seeing that although the door of Qiu Shuang Zhai was closed, she could still see lights and voices inside through the crack in the door, Feng Ziying subconsciously slowed down, while Jia Huan took the initiative to knock on the door.

Someone opened the door soon. Hearing Jia Huan say that Feng Ziying had arrived, Cui Mo who came out to open the door could hardly believe it. Jia Huan asked if anyone else was in the courtyard. Cui Mo hesitated for a moment before saying that the fourth girl was still there. After talking to the girl, she has not left yet, and the second girl has just left not long ago, so she may happen to be separated from Feng Ziying and his party.

Feng Ziying also heard Cuimo's words. She didn't expect that Xichun was still here with Tanchun. However, it would be too sneaky for her to sneak away at this time. She was originally here to give a gift as a birthday congratulation to Tanchun. If I'm afraid Tanchun will be hurt if he acts like this.

After making up his mind, Feng Ziying said calmly: "Cuimo, please go and report that I just had dinner with the second master at the house. Today is your girl's birthday. I came to see the third sister..."

"Okay, the fourth girl is here too..." Cuimo stuck out her tongue, surprised and happy.

"It's okay, just say it. Fourth sister is not an outsider. Maybe I haven't seen fourth sister for a long time, so I just want to talk."

Xichun's presence in Rong Ning's Second Mansion is indeed not very strong, but the young lady of Ning Guo Mansion is raised here in Rong Guo Mansion. She is also very low-key, virtuous and reserved, and her elegant and cool temperament is a bit solemn. But from a distance, she looks indecent. Although she is a little younger, she already has the appearance of a beautiful woman.

Feng Ziying didn’t have much contact with Xichun, but she also knew that this girl’s painting skills were as good as Shen Yixiu’s. Shen Yixiu once mentioned that Xichun said that this girl was very talented in painting, but she had a cold temper.

When Xichun heard that Feng Ziying was visiting at night, she was so shocked that she almost jumped up and subconsciously looked at the third sister on the side.

However, I saw that the third sister only had a blush on her cheeks, without much panic or uneasiness. She was even more surprised and didn't know what happened for a while.

This is in the Grand View Garden. It is not possible to enter or exit after the Xu Zheng period. Even though Brother Feng is close, he is also an outsider. How can he enter the garden at such a time and also visit the third sister?

 “Brother Feng is here?”

Tan Chun felt like a deer, suppressing the joy in his heart mixed with shyness. His son Xichun was still beside him, but fortunately his second sister was gone, otherwise this would have been even more embarrassing.

The second sister was in love with Brother Feng, and a few sisters were faintly aware of it. Everyone pretended to be in a tacit way.

"Yes, Uncle Feng said that he just had dinner at the master's place. Well, he was here to congratulate the master on his departure from Beijing tomorrow. He also knew that the girl's birthday is today, so he came to see the girl." Cui Mo lowered his head and whispered. road.

"Why don't you invite us in quickly?" Tan Chun adjusted his clothes. Fortunately, Xichun was still there. It wasn't time to rest yet. Although he was in the house, he was still wearing a skirt.

In the evening, several sisters gathered in her Qiushuangzhai to celebrate her birthday. However, she has never been very particular about such things, so before Xu Zheng arrived, several sisters left one after another. Xichun was left to say a few more words, but he didn't expect Brother Feng to come.

When Feng Ziying came in, Tanchun and Xichun had already stood up to greet them at the door. Although it hadn't been too long since they last met, Tanchun felt that the heroic and high-spirited man in front of him seemed to have some changes in momentum. Compared with his fierceness, he was more deep and steady, but the faint smile on his face did not change.

 “I’ve met Brother Feng.” Tan Chun and Xichun both met at the same time.

Feng Ziying returned the favor and said, "You two sisters are very polite. Brother Yu knows that today is the third sister's sixteenth birthday. Because he had dinner at Uncle Zheng Shi's place in the evening, he came to the third sister's place after dinner to see the third sister. , I didn’t expect the fourth sister to be here,..."

Tan Chun smiled and served tea with pursed lips: "It's my little sister's birthday. Why don't you have Brother Feng to go there in person? It makes me anxious. Brother Feng is now the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. He has to deal with many things every day. It's the time when he is busy with state affairs." , don’t delay it because of such trivial matters..."

Feng Ziying laughed, "Brother, I still remember the birthdays of several sisters. The second sister is on the second day of February, the third sister is on the third day of March, and the fourth sister is on the fourth day of April. It's a coincidence, it seems that the birthday of the imperial concubine is on the right day. It’s the first day of the month, right? What a coincidence.”

Unexpectedly, Feng Ziying remembered the birthdays of the sisters in the Jia family so well. Tan Chun and Xichun both had a blush of embarrassment on their faces.

Tanchun half-hidden his face with his sleeves raised and glanced at Feng Ziying with some annoyance.

And Xichun is Xiafei's cheeks. Although she was young and didn't know much about men and women before, in the past few years, she will soon be thirteen years old. In this era, thirteen or fourteen years old is the right age. Generally speaking, the best time to get engaged is to get married after two or three years of engagement, but Ningguo Mansion seems to have no intention of doing so.
