Chapter 47 Baochai's Feelings
In the yard, the sisters played around for a while and then stopped!
Xiangyun squeezed to Baochai's side and asked curiously, "Bao girl, when did it all start? You are so scheming that you hid it from all the sisters. If it weren't for today, I'm afraid we still wouldn't know!"
Baochai blushed, "Who did I hide from you? What did I hide? I am not the rebel among the sisters!"
"Precious girl, you are still stubborn even at this moment?"
"Lin girl, how should we describe the scene just now?"
Daiyu covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "Looking into each other's eyes? Holding your hand?"
"You are so affectionate and reluctant to leave!" Yingchun said slowly.
"In my opinion, it should be a love story between a man and a woman, a perfect match!"
Finally, everyone looked at Xichun!
Xichun tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Holding the case in harmony, and playing the zither in harmony?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the girls burst into laughter again!
"I think you are the ones who have evil in your heart. You are really not good people!" Baochai said shyly, "I just feel sorry for Brother Cong. Among the children of the two Jia families, only Brother Cong has made great achievements in his studies! Now he is a scholar who has won the third place in the imperial examination. In the future, he will definitely be a Jinshi, not to mention the first place!"
"With the guidance of Brother Cong and his master, he will surely become an important official in the court in the future. Even a position as a minister or a cabinet member is not impossible!"
"It would be fine if they didn't love and protect such a promising young man, but they actually sent him to guard the border? How will the men of these two mansions have face in the future?"
Baochai was also very angry today, and her words did not leave any face for the men in the two mansions.
However, the women remained silent after hearing this! They had witnessed the scene just now, so how could they not feel unfair and wronged for Jia Cong?
"Second Brother Lian and Second Brother Bao are really disappointing!" Xiangyun was so angry!
I used to think that these two brothers were good people, but now compared with Jia Cong, there is a huge difference between them!
"Now, let's pray for Third Brother Cong at home, hoping that he can return safely!" Daiyu said seriously.
"Brother Cong must be tired today, so we shouldn't bother him any further. I'm going to go back and make some things for him so he can take them with him when he goes to war. This is also a token of my love as a sister !"
Upon hearing this, the others nodded one by one.
Afterwards, the women said goodbye to Jia Cong and left!
Baochai stopped at the small corner gate and watched the sisters go west. Soon they turned into the alley! Baochai gritted her teeth and turned back to Jia Cong's courtyard, but she didn't know that at the corner of the alley, two pairs of eyes were seeing everything clearly.
It turned out that as soon as everyone entered the alley, Xiangyun and Daiyu said they wanted to go to Lixiangyuan to sit for a while. Sanchun did not suspect anything and left immediately.
However, Daiyu and Xiangyun were peeking around the corner, and sure enough, Baochai had not returned to Lixiangyuan at all!
"I said that Bao girl has hidden evil in her heart, and she dares not to admit it!" Daiyu raised the corner of her mouth slightly, but Xiangyun said beside her, "If you ask me, Bao sister has good vision. Even if Cong is Bao brother, he can't compare. I just don't know whether Bao sister loves her alone or Cong brother also has feelings for her. However, I think Cong brother may be slightly interested, but I don't know clearly."
Listening to Xiangyun's words, Daiyu thought about her several encounters with Jia Cong, his high-spiritedness during the imperial examinations, his arrogance when protecting his sisters, and his fortitude and determination in setting up a family, and her eyes could not help but become a little dazed!
"Girl Lin?"
Daiyu was awakened by Xiangyun's voice, only to see Xiangyun looking her up and down with a strange expression on her face.
"Why are you looking at me like that!" Daiyu turned her head away from Xiangyun.
Xiangyun chuckled, "I suddenly remembered that in a miscellaneous book I read before, there were stories of a senior brother and a junior sister in love, and there was also a scene where two women competed for a husband!"
Daiyu was very embarrassed, "Girl Yun, I will tear your mouth off today!"
…
After the girls left, Jia Cong finally calmed down! But soon he heard Zhuan'er's voice, "Hello, Miss Bao!"
Before Jia Cong walked out, Baochai had already walked into the study!
Looking at Jia Cong infatuatedly , Baochai shed tears again. Guarding the border has always been a life-threatening job, but the man in her heart was about to go thousands of miles away.
"Brother Cong, do you really want to go? Why don't you go and ask your master not to go?"
The falling tears seemed to hit Jia Cong's heart. Jia Cong subconsciously reached out his hand to wipe away Baochai's tears. "Sister Bao, I am a member of the Jia family. How can I retreat when the imperial court is fighting?"
"But, Cong Ge'er is not the only one in the Jia Mansion! Why didn't Second Brother Lian go? Why didn't Baoyu go? How has Cong Ge'er ever owed them a penny? How can they bear to let you risk your life!"
Looking at this beautiful girl who was crying inconsolably, Jia Cong suddenly felt an extremely complicated emotion in his heart. How could he not know what she was thinking!
Taking a deep breath, Jia Cong took a step forward, stretched out his hands and gently embraced the girl. He felt the delicate body stiffen, but after a moment, she gently fell on his chest.
"The Jia Mansion is now in great glory, but it is also in a state of chaos! If it falls into decline one day, how can I stay out of it? Therefore, if I want to change the Ning and Rong Mansions, I need to have enough power!"
After a pause, Jia Cong whispered again, "This world is actually extremely fair. If you want to get something, you need to pay for it!"
"I want my sisters to be worry-free and not be bullied by anyone. I want the Ning and Rong mansions to prosper and live up to the aspirations of our ancestors. I also want no one in the world to dare to question me when I want to marry my beloved!"
"A real man should hold a three-foot sword and accomplish extraordinary feats! Even if I, Jia Cong, don't take the imperial examination, I can still be made a marquis and become a prime minister!"
Baochai raised her head slightly, looking at the face so close to her, and felt that he had filled all her mind!
"Cong'er, I will send you off to battle in three days!"
"good!"
After Baochai left, Jia Cong hung the exquisite sachet in his hand around his waist. Unconsciously, he felt a little more worried in his heart!
In the afternoon, Jia Zheng asked someone to find Jia Cong, and the uncle and nephew took a carriage to Wei Qi's house. Along the way, Jia Zheng was ashamed and silent. Jia Cong tried to persuade him for a long time, but he still sighed repeatedly.
"Master, have you left the yamen yet?" After entering the door, Jia Cong asked the servant who led the way.
The servant hurried back, "Sir, the master has nothing to do at the government office today, so he came back early!"
When they reached the main hall, Wei Qi was overjoyed to see Jia Cong coming. "Cun Zhou is here too? Why did he bring such a generous gift? Doesn't this seem a little strange ?"
Jia Zheng covered his face with shame, and Jia Cong stood up, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "Master, please forgive me for my unfilial behavior!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Qi's expression suddenly changed. He stood up and glared at Jia Zheng, "Jia Cunzhou, you are going too far!"
