Chapter 133 Keqing is happy
Keqing felt sweet in her heart, knowing that this enemy was indeed thinking of her.
Ruizhu, who was standing by, even pulled Baozhu over and whispered something to her. Baozhu's eyes widened, and it was hard for her to digest the sudden news for a moment...
After Jia Cong returned to the West Mansion, he went back to his own courtyard first, but it was empty.
Thinking of what Daiyu had said before, he went straight to Daiyu's courtyard. Sure enough, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard chattering in the hall. It was obvious that all the girls were there.
"Meet the Third Master!"
A little maid came quickly to the door and opened the curtain for Jia Cong. Jia Cong pushed the door open and walked in. The girls looked at him in surprise.
"Third brother is here?"
Baochai, Daiyu and the three sisters were all in the hall, but Xiangyun was not there. She must have gone back to the Shi family. The head maidservant around them, as well as Xiaoque'er, Qingwen and Xiangling were also there.
"Master!" Xiao Que'er ran over and bumped into Jia Cong's arms.
"They all said that the master is going to the East Palace, and Xiao Que'er wants to go too!" Xiao Que'er said with a pout.
"When I go to the East Palace, of course you have to go there, since you are my maids!" Jia Cong said with a smile, and Qingwen and Xiangling also hurried forward to pay their respects to Jia Cong.
"Master, the girls have taught us to read and write." Xiangling smiled sweetly, "Qingwen is the best. She has learned quite a few words. But I have learned several poems. I will read them to you when you are free."
"Then wait!"
Several girls watched the conversation between the master and servant and couldn't help but smile. This kind of master-servant relationship was really rare. Although Baoyu was equally good to the maids in the room, for some reason, he gave people a completely different feeling from Jia Cong.
"Is there nothing going on over there today?" Baochai asked, "Why did you come here so early in the morning?"
Jia Cong felt a bit of guilt and apology like a scumbag, but his expression remained unchanged. "I have some free time today, so I came over to take a look."
"Look at you guys, and take a look at these girls."
"So is Third Brother still going over there today?" Daiyu asked.
"I'll go there later, but I'll stay here during the day."
"Then Third Brother, can you please accompany us to have fun together? Sister Yun went back home yesterday and is not here. If she knew that Third Brother was coming today, she would definitely regret it."
"Of course you can, but I'm going to change my clothes first, pay my respects to the old lady, father, and second uncle, and then have fun with you sisters after I come back."
Upon hearing this, the girls simply changed their location and went directly to Chenwu Courtyard. Jia Cong washed and dressed, then headed towards the other courtyards...
He spent the entire day playing with the girls in the West Palace and only returned to the East Palace after dinner.
After the hour of Hai, Jia Cong walked around in front of the coffin, gave instructions to the servants and maids who were looking after the surroundings, and then quietly went towards Keqing's courtyard.
In the courtyard, although Keqing was lying on the bed, she was obviously not sleepy. What happened last night still seemed like a dream to her.
"Grandma, why don't you go to sleep first? I'll wake you up when I get here." Ruizhu said.
Keqing shook her head and said, "I'm not sleepy at the moment. Please pass me the book and let me read it for a while."
As he was speaking, he heard Zhu'er's voice from the courtyard, "Greetings, Third Master!"
"Well, it's so cold, go to bed early. I'll ask your grandmother for a reward tomorrow!"
Keqing's face lit up with joy and she sat up immediately. Then, regardless of the mess of her clothes, she ran to the hall. Ruizhu, who was standing by, saw this and quickly put a cloak on Keqing and followed her.
"Keqing!"
At this time, Keqing's hair was disheveled and her clothes were somewhat casual, but her lazy look completely attracted Jia Cong's attention.
Ruizhu bowed and then stood in the corner pretending to be a quail. Keqing wanted to look at Jia Cong with a happy but shy look, but after just a few glances she shyly avoided him again.
Jia Cong stepped forward, took Keqing's hand, and then sat on the bed. "Ruizhu, tell Mrs. Zhang to go to the kitchen and get some food. I will eat with Keqing."
Ruizhu nodded and left. In the room, Jia Cong directly held Keqing in his arms and asked, "Did you miss me during this day, Keqing?"
Although Keqing was shy, she still nodded softly, "I thought about it!"
After giving her a light peck on the pretty face, Jia Cong took the small bundle beside him, which contained three boxes. He handed the larger sandalwood box to Keqing and said, "I have chosen a set of headgear for you, but I don't know if you like it."
Keqing took it in both hands and opened it, and then joy appeared in her eyes!
There are more than a dozen pieces in the box, including step-shaking ornaments, hairpins, combs, and hairpins, which are mainly made of gold, but are also inlaid with various precious gems such as pearls and tortoise shells.
"It's very valuable, right?" Keqing asked happily.
Not all women are greedy, but they will be happy if the man they like gives them precious things.
Especially for Keqing now, although she got Jia Cong's promise last night, the uneasiness and anxiety in her heart have not been completely eliminated. Only Jia Cong's care for her can make her feel completely at ease.
"I think it's too rough. My Keqing is the most beautiful woman in the world. Jewelry worth millions of gold pales in comparison to her!"
Keqing was shy and warm. She took the initiative to move forward and kiss Jia Cong on the face with her cherry lips.
"My Keqing must have what other women have, and she must have the best!"
"Thank you, sir!" Keqing raised her pretty face, her eyes full of affection.
"There are two more sets here, which are not very valuable. You can keep them as rewards for Baozhu and Ruizhu. They are the most loyal to you, so they deserve some rewards!"
"In addition, here are some banknotes and small change. I will have someone send some to my father-in-law later! It is not convenient for me to visit my father-in-law for the time being. After this period of time, if Keqing misses home, I will have someone harness a carriage to accompany you back. In addition to Qin Zhong, I will try to get him a place in the Imperial Academy in a few months and let him study there. There is really nothing we can learn in our family's clan school, and it will also save him from hanging around and causing Keqing and my father-in-law to worry!"
No one knows what has happened to Qin Zhong and Baoyu. Jia Cong didn't bother to care about them before, but now that he has become his brother-in-law, he naturally can't let him die like in the original book.
You should love your own woman. Although I cannot give Keqing a formal status for the time being, I will not lose anything else.
"Keqing, listen to your uncle!" Keqing was moved and leaned in Jia Cong's arms. Her lover was not only attracted by her appearance, but also truly cared about her. He took care of everything she was worried about. Just as he said, he would support her and take care of everything...
