Chapter 942 People and wealth gain both, killing two birds with one stone
Jia Ping'an is naturally not good at going to the banquet, but Gao Yang has no scruples.
"I'm going to save face for his family."
Gao Yang said domineeringly: "Da Lang likes to study at home, and A Niang will bring you delicious food when she comes back."
Li Shuo winked at Jia Pingan, implying to take him out.
But not this time.
Bringing children is not easy to deal with.
"next time!"
Seeing the disappointment of the child, Jia Pingan said: "The day after tomorrow, I will take you to Zhuangzi outside the city for a spring outing."
Li Shuo looked up, "The sun is so bright."
"It's okay for children to get a little tan."
Jia Ping'an and Gao Yang rode horses and arrived at the family later.
"That's it."
The family who hosted the banquet today was named Wang, and Jia Pingan was muttering about the old Wang next door. When Menzi saw Gao Yang, he hurried forward to salute.
"I'm here to find a new city."
"Princess is close, I will go to report." Menzi went in to report.
Later, a lady came out to greet her. When she saw Jia Ping'an, she was taken aback, but then she smiled charmingly, "I have seen the princess, and Duke Jia is here too. Rare guest, please come in."
The two of them followed in.
This road is lined with trees, and small buildings or pavilions can be seen from time to time, which is quite elegant. After this section is a small artificial lake.
This artificial lake is the size of a football field in later generations, but the shore is full of willow trees. The willows are yiyi, and the branches hang down on the water on the bank, which makes people feel refreshed.
The so-called party is in the nearby water pavilion.
More than a dozen men and women are drinking inside...
Drinking in broad daylight, won't you get dizzy?
Jia Pingan has never been able to accept the habit of drinking before dinner.
"Princess Gaoyang and Duke Jia are here."
The lady goes in first to say hello.
The men and women inside got up one after another.
Most of the eyes were focused on Gao Yang.
"The princess's skin is getting whiter and tenderer."
"It's still plump."
Jia Ping'an turned his eyes and saw Xincheng sitting on the side of the main seat, like a small white flower, so he smiled slightly.
Looked at the opposite side again...a man with fair skin, piercing eyes, and an unusually handsome appearance.
The man is smiling at Xincheng, his teeth are very white... In future generations, he will definitely be a hit.
Boyface!
Jia Ping'an thinks it would be nice for this little white flower in Xincheng to find a pretty face, but one has to look at her character, otherwise she will die as depressed as in history, and Jia Ping'an will be very sorry.
"Xiao Jia!"
Xincheng turned a blind eye to the handsome guy and smiled at Jia Pingan.
"Princess."
Jia Pingan and Gao Yang are in trouble as soon as they come in.
How to arrange seats?
Everything can be wrong these days, and the order can’t be wrong... But if the arrangement is wrong, some people will say that the host is impolite, and even the guests who are wrongly arranged at the bottom will leave the venue angrily.
Then it is not a banquet, but a feud.
After some adjustments, the two princesses are in the main seat...behind an old lady. Datang Zunlao, there is nothing to say about this.
Who can sit across from them next?
"Mr. Jia, please sit down."
Master Jia sat on the other side of the lower head, facing Xincheng and diagonally opposite Gao Yang.
"Sun Erlang, sit here."
Sun Erlang stepped forward and saluted, "Sun Zhen has met Duke Jia."
Jia Pingan nodded, and Sun Zhen cupped his hands at Gao Yang again, "I've seen the princess."
Gao Yang nodded perfunctorily.
This woman is so clear about grievances and grievances, she won't dump you if you are not familiar with her.
After sitting down, the host began to persuade them to drink.
Jia Pingan drank while looking at the people present.
Except for Sun Zhen, only he and two other men were present...The two men were both in their forties or fifties, and they hadn't spoken to each other since the beginning.
This is to accompany the killing field.
The others are all women, who talk a lot, and often lead the topic to Xincheng and Sun Zhen. Why is Sun Erlang young and eager to learn, but he doesn't pursue fame and fortune, like a wild crane...
Later generations, Jia Pingan experienced such things, and watched all the way... At that time, during dinner, one of the sisters complained, saying that her boyfriend had no future, and several women present condemned him with one voice. One of the newly married women said kindly in the attitude of an elder sister: "I know a good guy, a handsome one, and I will introduce it to you today."
The girl looked embarrassed, pretending to refuse, and finally met the handsome guy...Then the girl left, everyone booed and let the handsome guy see him off, so the two hid in the night.
My sister’s boyfriend found out later and didn’t make a fuss, and then broke up... A few months later, the eldest sister divorced, and the younger sister also broke up with the handsome guy.
Later, someone said: Girlfriends are a couple who break up a pair and count as a pair, which is similar to the function of a classmate reunion.
The atmosphere today is quite similar to that day, but the hero and heroine are both single, and there is no moral error.
Why does Sister take this matter so seriously?
Jia Pingan felt that what Gao Yang said was reasonable, the rumors outside were too vicious, and Xincheng was described as a vicious witch, Li Zhi, as his own brother, couldn't stand it, so he handed over the matter to Wu Mei, his sister-in-law...
But sister-in-law didn't recruit either!
Could it be that the Wu clan is looking for a son-in-law for Xincheng?
The Wu family has resources, and there are many unmarried teenagers, but in Wu Mei's heart, she probably wishes that all the Wu family members, except her own family, will go to hell.
Xincheng is the emperor's weakness, if this weakness is captured...
Now that the emperor is more and more majestic, the difficulty of trying to influence him is not the same as when he first ascended the throne.
But what if it is a curve to save the country and influence the emperor through the new city?
Jia Pingan glanced at Sun Zhen, and Sun Zhen raised his glass with a smile.
This person is in his early twenties and still not married, why? Naturally, it is impossible for this kind of family to be married by an official, but why are they still not married in their twenties?
Hidden disease?
For example, the kind of depression.
Or dislike women.
Jia Pingan took a look at Sun Zhen, and saw that he was smiling at Xincheng's style, occasionally seeing surprise, which shows that he likes women.
Why is that?
Xincheng was a little annoyed by his frequent glances, so he raised his glass to Master Jia, "Xiao Jia, let's go play horses together later."
Ahem!
This girl can't change the subject...
A group of old ladies are playing horses, what is it like for a man to get in there!
"It's easy to say."
But at this moment, we must give Xincheng face.
Sun Zhen's smile remained unchanged.
The city of this product is not shallow.
Xincheng looked at Jia Pingan, and the familiar brotherhood reappeared.
Jia Pingan got up and said to change clothes.
The eyes of the two most distinguished women at the banquet followed Master Jia.
Arriving at a compartment, the servant said, "There is a horse inside."
Said that he wanted to follow in to serve.
"You... go out for a while."
My mother is stared at and can't let it out.
The servant wondered, he was still holding a copper basin in his hand and a towel on his shoulders!
After he went out, Jia Pingan released the water and came out.
Washing hands, Jia Pingan didn't ask for a towel and let his hands dry.
God knows how many people have wiped their hands with that towel.
After leaving the cubicle, Jia Ping'an said, "I'm walking around."
The three nobles today, apart from the two princesses, are Jia Pingan.
So soon the noble lady came in a hurry again, and said with a smile, "But is there something wrong?"
Jia Pingan shook his head and walked slowly by the artificial lake.
"Exquisite."
Jia Ping'an's praise made the lady laugh, "Aye said that there should be no shortage of water at home."
Do you still pay attention to Feng Shui?
Jia Pingan smiled and said: "The wind stops when it meets the water. It seems that the Wang family's recent fortune is good."
The eyes of the noble lady seemed to explode, "Does Duke Jia even know about the Wang family?"
"hehe!"
Jia Pingan said with a smile: "Yes! The Wang family hosted Princess Xincheng today, and the princess invited me yesterday, so I apologize. I want to come and see."
These words flattered the Wang family secretly, fine lines appeared at the corners of the lady's eyes when she smiled.
"That Sun Erlang is quite handsome, but unfortunately he is a bit older, otherwise I would have a suitable woman for him."
Jia Pingan looked regretful.
The lady covered her mouth and snickered, but there was a little disdain in her eyes inadvertently.
Do you think you have settled for Xincheng?
The lady smiled and said: "Sun Erlang is handsome, he has been like this since he was a child..."
"Then it should have been settled a long time ago." Jia Pingan reached out and grabbed a willow branch, smiling at the lady seemingly casually.
The lady blushed a little, and subconsciously said: "I was beaten before..."
Beating?
What is the relationship between beating and getting married?
I have to use the beauty trick... Jia Pingan took a step forward, showing his eight teeth, "Could it be that you smashed your ass?"
"Something happened... I don't know." The lady suddenly woke up, and she waved her pink fist coquettishly and lightly beat Jia Pingan, hitting her chest.
The strong chest muscles easily blocked the powder punch back.
The lady's complexion was crimson, and her eyes were blurred.
Jia Pingan knew that it was impossible to ask for valuable information today, so he coughed dryly, "I'm going back."
The noble lady's eyes were clear for a moment, and then she followed Jia Pingan step by step, occasionally raising her head to look at Jia Pingan's back. She couldn't help but lick her red lips.
Dirty Tang smelly man!
What Jia Pingan thought of was this.
After entering the water pavilion, Gao Yang took a look at him, and the same was true for Xincheng.
Jia Pingan shook his head slightly, indicating that nothing happened.
After sitting down, Sun Zhen moved closer and said with a smile, "Mr. Jia's talent is unparalleled...it's admirable."
This flattery is not nutritious and old-fashioned.
But the horses that Sun Zhen photographed in Xincheng were very fresh and refined. Why?
Oil seller?
Jia Pingan couldn't help but think of this.
Only hands-on familiarity!
He narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's overrated."
He is a famous general in the Tang Dynasty, so naturally he doesn't need to respond too much to a stranger.
A woman suddenly laughed, and the part of her laugh trembled wildly, and the hairpins and other ornaments on her temples trembled... It's a pity that she looks ordinary, otherwise it would remind people of a word: trembling flowers and branches.
Sun Zhen looked at Jia Ping'an, then at Xincheng...
He only dared to take a look at Xincheng, and then strayed away... This is the princess, and his identity is not enough to spy on the princess for a long time, otherwise he would be impolite, and Xincheng might get someone to whip him.
Xincheng looks gentle, like a small white flower, and should not be irritating, but Gao Yang, who is sitting next to her, looks aggressive, but it's hard to say.
Huh!
Sun Zhen discovered one thing: Gao Yang's gaze was on Jia Ping'an's body from time to time, that's all. After all, the well-informed people in Chang'an City knew the relationship between this princess and Jia Ping'an...they had children.
But why does Xincheng look at Jia Pingan from time to time?
And the smile is very gentle.
Sun Zhen smiled, showing his white teeth, but Xincheng turned a blind eye.
Teeth are Sun Zhen's biggest highlight. He took a sip of wine, bowed his head and swished a few times.
Then swallow.
No vegetable leaves!
Xincheng suddenly blinked at Jia Pingan.
The blinking of Jianshui's eyes reminded Jia Ping'an of the word "witty", and also of the lake he saw back then, which was quiet but full of vitality.
Dude wants to go!
Jia Pingan looked at Gao Yang, "Princess, I still have to pick up the child!"
Well!
This opening was too casual, and it actually brought the habits of later generations.
—Honey, come down quickly, we're going to pick up the kids from school!
Gao Yang didn't like to get along with a group of unfamiliar people.
The master thought that today Japan is creating an opportunity for Sun Erlang, and you and Jia Ping'an have messed up the situation as soon as they came, so let's go.
After staying a few words, the host sent off with 'regret'.
"I'm going back too."
Xincheng got up and walked to Master Jia's other side naturally, and the three of them went out slowly.
What about going boating on the lake later?
Owner:"…"
Sun Zhen: "..."
After sending the three of them away, the lady stepped forward to bless her, "I'm bothering you today."
The master smiled, "You're welcome."
The noble lady went to the next door with Sun Zhen. After entering the house, the noble lady frowned, "Why did you tie your hands and feet when you faced the princess today? In the past, you could make those women's hearts move just by smiling, but today you smiled It's rather unnatural...why?"
"Sister!" Sun Zhen smiled wryly, "I laughed, but the princess never responded, and she glanced at me occasionally, but that look was nothing special."
"That's a princess, do you still expect her to smile at you on the spot? That's not a princess, but a prostitute in a brothel!"
The lady's harsh words made Sun Zhen angry, "At first I wanted to make a tease, but Princess Gaoyang and Jia Pingan came. As soon as I opened my mouth, Princess Gaoyang glanced at me, that look...like a leather whip ish."
"You!" The lady shook her head, "I think you are jealous of Duke Jia."
"I don't!"
Sun Zhen's face turned red and his voice became hoarse.
The noble lady smiled suddenly, her cheeks flushed slightly, "This Lord Jia's handsomeness is tinged with heroism, and even more indifferently free and easy, which really makes people's hearts flutter...It's a pity that before..."
"Sister, you..." Sun Zhen said in a low voice; "Could it be that you and Jia Pingan took the opportunity to change clothes... um!"
Phew!
The noble lady gave him a **** and said angrily, "How can that be."
Sun Zhen sighed: "That man has made great military achievements and has a literary talent..."
"Do you think Princess Gaoyang was so domineering when she walked beside him?" The lady said softly, "This is a man. You are handsome, but your literary talent and heroism are far inferior to him. wait free and easy...
But people like Xincheng definitely like you who seem easy to manipulate, so I have great hopes... I will look for opportunities next time... Remember to take the initiative and show off your strengths..."
…
"Today was invited by an elder of the clan. Who knew that she didn't come when I arrived, saying that something happened at home."
On the way back, Xincheng was obviously a little annoyed, "She did it on purpose."
"You're not stupid, congratulations." Jia Ping'an felt that this girl was pitiful, "You are now a big gold mine, and many men who don't want to work hard are coveting you."
Don't want to work hard?
Xincheng was a little puzzled, "If you don't want to work hard, just stay at home, why are you looking for me?"
"Both people and wealth, kill two birds with one stone."
Gao Yang couldn't help but complained: "You are so temperless. If it were me, if that person didn't come, I would leave immediately. Who would dare to stop me from beating him to death!"
But I'm Xiaobaihua's character design!
Xincheng smiled wryly, "But I can't."
Gao Yang asked: "Are you interested in that Sun Zhen? If there is one, let Xiao Jia check it out for you. Xiao Jia's methods are superb, and he will definitely be able to find out about him."
Xincheng shook his head, "Not interested."
Gao Yang looked at Jia Ping'an, "Young Jia will be fine in this way."
But sister asked me to check!
Jia Ping'an was having a headache at the moment, thinking that if the little boy had other goals, Xincheng's heart would be like a dead tree.
Back home, the little padded jacket came to complain.
"Aye, Auntie doesn't even take me to practice! Woohoo!"
Doudou tugged on his clothes, raised his head and howled.
"Cultivation is divided into internal and external." Jia Ping'an squatted down and said seriously: "The so-called external training of muscles, bones and skin, internal training of one breath, your mother is now internal training of one breath, and the realm is far behind Aye. Since you want to If you want to venture into the rivers and lakes, then you should train your muscles and bones outside."
Doudou stopped crying, hiccupped, and shook his body a few times, "Aye, how do you practice?"
Come to practice kung fu?
Iron Sand Palm Rub your palms with iron sand every day.
Another daily punching stump.
After so many years, a King Kong loli appeared.
Jia Pingan just imagined it for a while, and felt it was inappropriate.
But the daughter is to be coaxed.
He said softly: "The so-called external training of muscles, bones and skin... Go to bed early and get up early every day, and you are not allowed to picky eaters for three meals. In just three years, you will surpass your mother. At that time, your mother will come and beg you to take her to practice. ..."
DouDou's eyes shined brightly, "Really?"
This girl's IQ is probably worrying!
The old father was worried again, "Of course it's true."
Turned around and ran away, "Aniang, Aniang!"
Why!
The result of you going to show off now is to be hit, and your mother will hold back the laughter until she explodes on the spot.
Jia Pingan got up, and Yun Zhang came over.
"Lang Jun, Du He came to report earlier that when Cao Er went shopping in the morning, many shops said they would not do Jia's business."
"I ruined the good deeds of the gentry, but the person in charge would not do such a stupid thing. Most likely someone is venting their anger... don't care about it."
Jia Ping'an said that there was no need to talk to him, and then asked Xu Xiaoyu to go to work.
Later, there were many rumors in Chang'an City.
"Do you know, those nobles say that merchants are sluts, but their own business is quite large."
"real?"
"Didn't they say a moral gentleman?"
"Doesn't a moral gentleman eat, drink, and scatter?"
"The last time I saw an official of the gentry, he looked very handsome, and I thought he wouldn't **** if he couldn't handle it properly."
"Yeah! Maybe they don't have to shit."
"Then why are they in business?"
"I don't know."
A few idlers were talking nonsense, but gradually, the whole East and West City was spreading these words.
…
The wise man was angry at home, "Who told us not to sell those shops to the Jia family?"
A man smiled wryly, "It's the gentleman of the Lu family."
The wise man sighed: "This kind of thing is not self-inflicted, Jia Pingan... Jia Pingan probably will say it in the court, and then my family will also lose face."
On the second day, the wise man received the news.
"Many people in Dongxi City are spreading rumors, saying that Shandong gentry and I are shameless... While saying that businessmen are sluts, while doing business at home is booming..."
"The foundation of our family is reputation, such rumors... go and investigate!"
The news is easy to check!
"It's from the Jia family."
Xu Xiaoyu went to spread the news with great fanfare, and many people in Dongxi City knew about it.
"The man also said that the gentry are shameless and control their own business not to sell it to the Jia family."
Grass mud horse!
The wise man smashed the teacup, "Go find the people in Lu's family, tell them that Jia Ping'an has lost his temper, hurry up and calm down!"
…
At the beginning of the month, the Jazz asked for a guaranteed monthly pass. Brothers, awesome!
