Chapter 874 Jia Heng: You call this convenience?

Ningguo Mansion

The north wind is still whistling on the pitch-black sky, and heavy snow is blowing goose feathers, while the sycamore trees in the courtyard have covered their branches with snowflakes, and the world is covered in silver.

While Jia Heng and Third Sister You were talking, they entered the wing room one after the other. In the small indoor hall and the wing room, tables, chairs, cabinets and beds are all available, and the interior is warm and pleasant with the fragrance of flowers.

At this moment, in the inner room where the bead curtain hangs, the hot water in the wooden barrel is ready, and after the maids put down their clothes, they slowly exited the room.

Jia Heng stared at Third Sister You, and said, "Speaking of which, you have been here for almost a year."

Third Sister You heard the words, the color of memory on her jade face flashed away, she said softly: "It has been a year."

Jia Heng stared at the beautiful young girl, Third Sister You's appearance is indeed extremely beautiful, at the moment illuminated by the lights, her pear cheeks and snow skin are like peach blossoms on her face.

Third Sister You came slowly, feeling a little nervous, biting her cherry lips with her white teeth, and said softly, "Master Heng, let me help you change your clothes."

Although Cai had mustered up his courage just now, when he actually went into battle, for some reason, his heart was pounding, after all, he was unmanned.

Jia Heng didn't refuse either, and said softly, "Yes."

As he said that, he first went to untie the thin rope under his neck, and put the crown of feathers and wings on his head on the small table. He didn't untie the jade belt himself, but suddenly a pair of delicate hands untied Jia Heng's rhino horn jade belt, and then came to Helping Jia Heng put on the python suit from the front.

After a while, Jia Heng went to his outer clothes, with only his inner clothes underneath, and a sweat scarf tied around his waist.

Third Sister You looked at the blue sweat scarf, blinked her beautiful eyes, she looked familiar, and said, "Who gave this to Uncle Weaver Girl."

Jia Heng didn't answer, but said, "I don't quite remember who it seems to be."

He remembered that it was You Shi who came.

Third Sister You pursed her lips and smiled lightly, but didn't ask any further questions.

She thought to herself, she looked like the one my eldest sister wove last year, but Uncle Heng kept carrying it, well, I have to talk to my eldest sister when I go back.

Jia Heng untied the scarf and said in a gentle voice, "I'll do it myself next time."

Then remove the undershirt.

As he spoke, he turned to look at the girl with hot cheeks and shy eyes, and felt very amused for a while, and said, "Third sister is usually so aggressive, but today she is so ashamed?"

Third Sister You looked at the young man's bare chest, feeling as if her heart had been scorched, her beautiful eyes slightly avoided, the smell of alcohol and the heat from her body surged in, her tender body was half crisped, Gently untied the cotton skirt on her body, and said, "Then I will serve the uncle to take a bath."

In fact, how Qingwen's flirtatious hoof served, she could see clearly through the window in the past.

Compared to Na Qingwen, she will only be better.

Jia Heng turned his head and looked at the girl with a charming face almost like peach petals, stopped the girl's busy hands, and said softly: "No need for this, it's a bit cold, don't catch a cold like this."

He did have some thoughts today... But Keqing has been in a bit of discomfort these past two days, and Daiyu and the others are a little young.

Looking at the entire Ningguo Mansion, it seems that only the third sister is suitable, and it is impossible to let the mandarin ducks who are serving Jiamu come to serve on such an evening.

As for Miaoyu, Shitai is a pot of wine that needs to be sipped slowly, and a plum that Kazuki needs to lower his head to sniff carefully, so it is not suitable to drink.

On the contrary, strong wine like Third Sister You is more suitable.

In fact, Qin Keqing's previous considerations are commonplace, because there are maids in the big family, so that when the mistress is not feeling well, she can take care of her temporarily. If the mistress is pregnant, it can't last for a few months. Let the hero live a monk's life of abstinence and asceticism.

To put it bluntly, the housemaids are more like bedding.

But Baozhu and Ruizhu, the two maids brought by Qin Keqing, are far inferior to the Yingying Yanyan in Ningguo Mansion, no matter in appearance or figure, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are vulgar fans.

The ceiling of the maidservant world is Qingwen, Pingyuan attacked the three giants of Yaerta and others, and Baozhu Ruizhu was naturally too far behind.

Knowing this, Qin Keqing mentioned the matter of the two maids at first, but as time passed, she never mentioned it again.

Without him, who is watching outside?

Either a princess or a princess, with a respectable status and a gorgeous appearance, but she used two young maids who were still growing up to show off her ladylike demeanor?

And Jia Heng usually never glanced at the two little girls who didn't have much sense of existence.

So, Second Sister You and Third Sister You are, to a certain extent, the two beautiful housemaids that Qin Keqing found.

Even if Sister Feng is as jealous, there must be a Ping'er by her side for Jia Lian to act as a lady's front.

This can't even be said that I have wronged myself, but the self-consciousness and decency of the head wife. Mrs. Wang is so talkative, and there are two Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou beside Jia Zheng.

Otherwise, in this era when the death rate of offspring is relatively high and the family line is important, the headed wife prevents the wide adoption of concubines, and it is a great sin to prolong the offspring.

Two girls with shallow foundations and even their family backgrounds are not very innocent. They are perfect for decorating their appearance and taking them as concubines. If they are darker, they are easy to handle.

It is definitely not as good as facing the pressure of Chai and Dai, because Xue Lin is the cousin of the Jia family, what is the family background of the two?

Not to mention Daiyu's ancestors, whose father was a civil servant of the Qingliu, and Baochai who criticized whether he was worthy of the position of wife.

That is also the daughter of the four major families of King Xue of Jia Shi. Even if there is no filter bonus from the original work, which ranks first in the Jinling Twelve Hairpins, it is said that Baochai, the daughter of the imperial merchant, can survive in the family. Like maids like Qingwen and Xiren, giving people the position of aunt?

Is this appropriate?It's kind of insulting.

Therefore, in Keqing's eyes, if you don't lift Youshi's twin sisters as aunts, who else can you lift?

As for the other four springs, not to mention their young age, they all have the same surname, which has never been considered. Xiangyun and Baoqin are all relatives from outside, and they are still young.

As for Miaoyu and Xiuyan, one is a lonely outsider, and the other is Xiaojia Biyu from a small family. Qin Keqing of the former doesn't know about it, and Qin Keqing of the latter is already thinking of making another move.

So it looks like a bunch of Yingying Yanyan, but in fact there are not many suitable ones.

But Jia Heng didn't show any special interest in Youshi's twin sisters before, and this just made Qin Keqing secretly happy, but also a little unhappy.

Why, don't even give it to you?Chai Dai, the princess is so fragrant?

Probably such a contradictory unwillingness.

Third Sister You stepped forward to help Jia Heng scrub and wash his back, and said, "Sister Qin is taking care of her body these days, and she is talking about having a baby with Grandpa."

Jia Heng smiled lightly and said, "She tells you sisters everything."

However, he actually understands some of Qing's thoughts, that is, he lacks a sense of security. After passing through the door for a long time, he has become a first-class Mrs. Hou, and Xianning is still watching outside, but it is strange that Qing is not in a hurry.

Third Sister You said softly: "Sister has treated us very well, and since she has been in the house for so long, it is inevitable that she will worry about the children."

Jia Heng said: "I originally thought about her body. At this time, it is a hell for a woman to have a child. The older and the fatter, the easier it is to have a child."

Third Sister You's eyebrows were charming and flowing, and she said softly: "I see that my sister is not young anymore, she should have it, otherwise people will gossip, if the uncle is not in the mansion, I don't know what those gossips are saying in private The East Mansion is okay, I met it a few times and reprimanded it a few times, but I don’t know about the West Mansion, but I think there are some."

Jia Heng said: "This is true, even if it is rectified, I still can't help muttering in my heart, there are thousands of servants in Rongning and Ning's houses, these are inevitable after all."

In this day and age, the head wife has been living in the house for more than a year, and her stomach has not moved at all, so she must be criticized and criticized.

Especially now that he is at the top of Rongning and Ningfu, and even the Han Dynasty Hall.

"That's why, uncle, you have to hurry up." Third Sister You helped Jia Heng to the last piece of underwear.

"No wonder she asked me to come here to wait on you. She came here as a lobbyist." Jia Heng said softly, looking at the glamorous face, embracing the girl's plump waist with one hand, and stroking her pink and plump cheeks with the other. , the skin feels tender and smooth, and youth is the best skin care product for girls of this age.

And Third Sister You's willow eyebrows are picturesque, with curved eyebrows and cheeks. The face shape is not as graceful and grand as Yuan Chun's, but it is not a small face as big as a palm. The facial features are somewhat gorgeous and sharp like Sister Feng.

No wonder later generations selected actors and collectively referred to them as the Sister Feng group. The characters of the third sister and Sister Feng also have some similarities, but they were born in a poor family and a Wang family from a wealthy family.

Third Sister You raised a beautiful and bright face, and was sizing up by the young man's aggressive gaze, her eyes were full of autumn water, her pink lips fluttered, and she said in a trembling voice: "Master Heng, eh~"

Immediately, a warm breath mixed with the smell of alcohol hit her face, the girl's delicate body trembled slightly, a greasy hum came from the nostrils under the small and delicate Qiong's nose, and her mouth opened slightly.

During the winter night, the snow from the sky covered the rockery and the eaves thickly, and the snowman was piled up, and Jia Heng's fingertips overflowed with richness, which was unpredictable.

The auspicious snow heralds a good year, what a snowfall.

The clothes in front of Third Sister You were slightly undone, the eyes under her beautiful eyebrows were slightly closed, the mist was hazy, her gorgeous face was glowing like fire, and the glow was gorgeous, she said: "Master, take a bath first, don't catch a cold .”

Jia Heng looked down at the shy and shy girl, and said, "Well, wait for me to take a bath."

Third Sister You shyly responded, and then untied Jia Heng's belt. Just as Jing Che looked down, she was burned for a moment, and she turned her face away quickly, her heart skipped a beat.

This is too...

The usual pungent, but when the incident came to an end, he became extremely shy.

While Jia Heng was speaking, he got into the bathtub, washed off the smell of hunting wine on his body, closed his eyes, and thought about the court situation.

Third Sister You walked behind her, stretched out her slender hands to help Jia Heng knead her shoulders, and said softly, "Master, there should be nothing serious before the Chinese New Year."

"Well, there are no major issues, but there are still many trivial official duties." Jia Heng responded lightly, took a towel and wiped his chest, and said softly: "How is the preparation for the New Year in the Fuzhong?"

Third Sister You said softly: "The house has been busy for the past few days, I think it's about the same. Sister-in-law Feng said that after a few days, she invited the troupe to come and sing. The garden will be moved in the day after tomorrow."

Jia Heng gave a "hmm" and asked, "How is your family? Is the old lady okay?"

Third Sister You said quietly: "It's not like that at home, but they often ask me when I will serve the uncle, and scold me for not living up to expectations."

Jia Heng: "..."

Gently pinched Third Sister You's face, looked at the girl with bright eyebrows, and said, "Then let you fight back."

Jia Heng thought for a while and said: "I'll go back and talk to Ke Qing, I will go to the mansion in the past two days and send someone to your house to make an order, press some clothes and jewelry, and decorate the yard where you live. It's easy to handle. Make arrangements, the red hijab and the wedding dress should be worn once.”

Third Sister You can be regarded as one of his concubines, but he doesn't know how to entertain guests and make big arrangements, otherwise there must be many people coming to congratulate her, which is too ostentatious.

But a sedan chair came from the side door, and Third Sister You's house was simply arranged as a new house. If she was taking a concubine from outside, she might have to make some arrangements, but it might not necessarily be the concubine who was taken in by a maid in an ordinary mansion.

Third Sister You pursed her pink lips, and said softly: "Master, don't bother me that much, I'm fine, it's fine as it is."

Putting on a flaming red wedding dress, and marrying her husband, she had imagined such a scene in her dreams, but it was impossible.

At this time, only the main wife has the words of worshiping heaven and earth and parents, and taking a concubine means entering the concubine through the side door, so the concubine's room is also called the side room.

"I've only worn it like this once in my life, so it should be more festive." Jia Heng said softly.

I remember that in the original book, Third Sister You cried and said that when she was the boss, what she actually wanted was the title of this aunt.

The Han system legally recognized concubines, and the children of concubines were called concubine sons, such as Jia Huan, who had the right to inherit property, and could still give Baoyu a thorn in his hands from time to time.

Again, the children born to maidservants have a low status in the mansion, and are only slightly better than servants.

When Third Sister You heard the words, her jade face was stagnant, her nose was sour, and her crystal clear eyes were filled with tears, she suddenly sobbed and said, "Master Heng."

She finally made it through, even though she said to get it by herself, but what is that?Hu Meizi's seductive means, I don't know why he underestimated her in his heart.

And she was the uncle's first concubine.

As soon as she thought of this, the girl felt that the sweetness in her heart could not be restrained, and she was the first aunt to accept.

Jia Heng looked at the girl with pear blossoms and rain on the cheek with fragrant skin and jade skin, and said, "Okay, don't cry, there's nothing to cry about."

Third Sister You wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, Yurong turned to see joy and said, "Master, I'll wait for you to take a bath."

Jia Heng said: "I'm almost done washing now, go and bring me the clothes."

Third Sister You responded with an "um", and waited on Jia Heng to wipe her body, prepared the inner garment, and helped Jia Heng to put it on.

"Master, it's time... to rest." Third Sister You blushed and asked softly.

Jia Heng asked, "Is it convenient where you live?"

Third Sister You's cheeks were as red as clouds, and she said softly, "Second Sister and I live in the same room, which is convenient."

Jia Heng: "..."

You call this convenience?

After thinking for a while, he took Third Sister You's hand and said, "Then let's sleep here today, there are quilts here."

Third Sister You blushed and let out an "ah".

As Jia Heng said, he took Third Sister You's hand, walked around a lady's embroidered screen, entered the suite, and came to the bed with curtains and curtains. On it, bedding and pillows were all available, and asked in a warm voice: "Have you written a new storybook recently?"

Third Sister You said while going for her shoes and socks, "So I finished that book, I said I will write another one after a while."

Jia Heng said softly: "Well, I always have to find something for myself to do at home. We don't expect this to make money. The main thing is that you usually read more books or something."

Third Sister You was only wearing an inner garment, she put down the curtain on the golden hook, her cheeks were bright red, she said shyly, "I mean the same thing."

It all feels like a dream.

Jia Heng embraced the girl's shaved shoulders, and the two of them lay down and said, "Well, let's rest."

Third Sister You pursed her lips and said softly, "Let me serve you."

Jia Heng smiled and said in a low voice: "I'm a little tired today, it's fine if you come to serve, but how do you serve?"

After a while, he was taken aback for a moment, only to see that the girl had already crawled into bed, and then her eyes froze.

The winter in Shenjing is not as warm and humid as that in Jiangnan.

In fact, Qingwen is not much better than Qingwen, and she is still a little jerky.

After a while, Jia Heng pulled Third Sister You over and said, "Okay, it's almost done."

Third Sister You blushed slightly, her silky black hair drooped down, and she gave a soft "hmm".

Jia Heng didn't say much else, and buried his head in the snow.

At this moment, the north outside is whistling, blowing over the sycamore trees, and the snow is falling, while the interior is as warm as spring, with birds singing and swallows singing.

On the other side, the courtyard where Daiyu lives——

Sitting on the bed, Daiyu was slightly lost in thought while holding a book, the lights were blurred, she projected her petite figure on the casement, she put down the book, and sighed softly.

Zijuan came closer and said softly: "Girl, it's late at night, it's time to rest."

Daiyu put down the book in her hand, hesitated to speak, and said, "Zicuckoo."

"What's wrong with the girl." Zijuan said softly, and immediately understood, and asked in a low voice: "The girl is because of that Third Sister You."

Daiyu shook her head and said, "It's not this."

Third Sister You is only for use, otherwise he would not even look at her for nearly a year in the mansion.

But, day after day, since returning to Beijing, Big Brother Heng said yesterday that he came back to see her every day, so he saw her in the hall just now, right?

Zijuan said: "Girl, uncle is usually very busy. When we went to Jiangnan, even Grandma Heng didn't see her for several months."

The girl in her family is good at everything, but she is too clingy. The uncle is busy with court affairs, so it is impossible for him to talk and laugh around the girl every day.

Daiyu nodded her head, her bright starry eyes twinkled, and said softly: "I know, when Brother Heng went to Yuehai, he was busy with military affairs."

But when I was in Jinling, I talked with her every day.

Zijuan said softly: "However, it doesn't mean that the garden has been tidied up, and the girl will be able to live in it in a few days. Girl, I see that the uncle puts the girl very seriously in his heart."

Daiyu nodded, a thoughtful expression appeared on her pretty face.

She has experience of this, she should be very important in his heart, and so is she.

As Zijuan said, she sat down on the bed, leaned into the girl's ear, and said in a low voice: "Miss, I think the uncle treats the girl in the same way as Grandma Heng in my heart."

Daiyu suddenly heard this, her heart trembled slightly, her heart was so sweet, but she reprimanded: "This... It's like a good comparison, don't talk nonsense."

In fact, she also... felt the same way.

Hmph, he had planned on her a long time ago, and let her take care of her body. He even thought about having a child and who's surname for her. It's really deliberate.

But Zijuan talked about her own evidence, and said softly: "Miss, look at how long the girl from the You family has been in the house. Uncle Heng doesn't even look at him. The nuns in the house say that the two girls are good-looking in private. , but I didn't see what happened to the uncle, he was honest, and the uncle has always taken good care of the girl."

Daiyu was ashamed and happy, she pursed her pink lips and said, "I know."

Zijuan said softly: "My uncle has been presenting captives these two days, and he is also attending court meetings. He is too busy to touch the ground, but there should be nothing to be busy with before a year ago, and he will definitely be able to spend more time with the girl."

My daughter wants to be with her more, but the kind of noisy and noisy together is obviously not there.

Daiyu said softly: "It's snowing so much today. Didn't Sister-in-law Feng say that she would move to the garden the day after tomorrow? It would be great if I could go to the garden to enjoy the snow scenery first."

Zijuan said with a smile: "See if Uncle Heng is free tomorrow, well, girl, let's rest earlier."

Daiyu let out a "hmm" and didn't say any more, she just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
