Chapter 124: Jade nourishes people? No, people nourish jade!

“Xue Baochai pays respect to the old lady!”

Baochai bowed gracefully, and every move she made displayed the temperament of a lady from a noble family.

“Good, good, good!”

“My Lord, you have embarrassed me.”

“We are all old relatives, get up quickly.”

“He is indeed a handsome man.”

Grandmother Jia hurried forward to support them, and also pulled Baochai and Daiyu.

One person sits on each side.

“And the three people from the Xing family whom I met in Shandong also came to Beijing with me.”

“It’s just that Sister Xing Xiuyan can’t ride a horse, so I asked my personal soldiers to escort her from behind, and we’ll be there soon.”

Jia Cong suddenly thought of the three members of the Xing family, so he spoke.

“Xing family?”

Upon hearing this, Lady Jia looked at Lady Xing, who had been silent, in confusion.

“In reply to the old lady, Cong-ge should be referring to my daughter-in-law’s brother’s family.”

“My daughter-in-law received a letter from my brother a few days ago, but I didn’t expect that she would meet Cong at the same time.”

Mrs. Xing was also surprised at this time and quickly stood up to reply.

“Oh, well, if you count it this way, they are relatives.”

“That’s not an outsider!”

“Old family, just find a house on the back street and settle them down first.”

“If the girl from the Xing family is willing, you can ask the maid to clean up a small courtyard for her and she can live in the mansion.”

“All the usual salary and treatment will be given to you as a young lady of the mansion.”

Grandmother Jia gave the order casually.

If it was someone else, it would be fine, but the three members of the Xing family were brought back by Jia Cong.

There was no way that Lady Jia could ignore it.

“Thank you, old lady, daughter-in-law!”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xing bowed and thanked him.

……

“Grandfather, is Sister Lin back?”

Just then, Jia Baoyu hurriedly ran into Rongqing Hall.

He was shouting while running.

He stumbled at the door and almost fell.

Grandmother Jia was so frightened that she quickly responded.

“Ouch, my darling, please slow down and don’t fall.”

“Are you all blind? Hurry up and help Baoyu sit down.”

“Grandfather, it’s okay. I want to talk to Sister Lin.”

“Sister Lin, is Jiangnan fun? Do you miss me?”

Jia Baoyu didn’t care about it. He moved a chair and wanted to sit next to Daiyu.

But Daiyu blocked it with a mist of water.

Lin Daiyu’s brows were furrowed and her eyes were cold.

She stood up and said to Grandmother Jia, “Madam, there is something that my granddaughter forgot to report to you just now.”

“This time when I went to the south of the Yangtze River, my father betrothed me to Brother Cong in front of my mother’s tomb outside Yangzhou.”

“It’s a bright future. I just need to wait a few years to get the three letters and six engagements, and officially marry into the Jia family. Then it will be considered a close relationship.”

“This… Ru Hai…”

“Such a big thing, how could he…”

Grandmother Jia has always wanted to bring together Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu.

With Lin Ruhai’s care, Jia Baoyu will definitely have a bright future.

But what no one expected was that during the trip to Jiangnan, Lin Ruhai actually betrothed Lin Daiyu to Jia Cong.

Before Lady Jia could react.

Lin Daiyu turned around and said to Jia Baoyu solemnly.

“Brother Baoyu, Daiyu is a few months younger than you.”

“But there are differences between men and women. If nothing else happens in the future, it would be better for my cousin to have less contact with Daiyu.”

“This is also for my cousin’s sake!”

After hearing these words, Jia Baoyu felt as if struck by lightning.

He kept muttering.

“Sister Lin is betrothed to Cong Lao San?”

“impossible!”

“This is impossible!”

“What’s so good about Cong Lao San!”

“How can I be worthy of Sister Lin!”

In the end, he glared at Jia Cong like a madman.

“Third Brother Cong, tell me, did you use any shameful means…”

“Rebellious son, are you trying to rebel against heaven?”

Jia Zheng, who was standing by, had never expected that Jia Baoyu would cause such a scene on such a good day.

I was furious and was just about to find a handy tool.

There was a crisp sound of “clang”.

A sword energy flew over and went straight towards Jia Baoyu.

When it was three inches away from Jia Baoyu’s eyebrows.

A colorful barrier emerged from the spiritual jade around Jia Baoyu’s neck.

Block the sword energy outside.

Today, Jia Cong is already a seventh-rank clergyman.

The power of the gods is far beyond what it was before.

A dark light flashed in his eyes.

It is clearly seen that a five-colored soul is sleeping inside Jia Baoyu’s body.

“Your spiritual jade can barely be considered as an eighth-level refinement, which is rare in the world.”

“It’s a pity that there is no one to control it, just like a tree without roots and water without a source.”

“If I want to kill you, it only takes a quarter of an hour.”

“Do you think your protector can arrive within a quarter of an hour?”

Jia Cong put down the teacup in his hand, turned around and said lightly.

The sudden change stunned everyone present.

Only Baochai had a palm-sized mirror in her hand.

It seemed like they were just playing around, but in fact the entire Rongqing Hall was already covered by water mist.

“Oh, my dear grandson, why do you have to do this!”

“Why is it so? Baoyu is just having a hysterical attack.”

Finally, it was Grandmother Jia who came to her senses first and hurried forward to mediate.

“Grandma knows that you have great magical powers, and Baoyu didn’t do it on purpose, so quickly put away your sword energy.”

“We are all brothers from the same clan, so don’t let outsiders laugh at us.”

……

“Old lady, you know that favors are something you should use less of.”

“If you’re willing to use it all on Jia Baoyu, I have nothing to say.”

“It’s your own choice after all!”

Jia Cong glanced at Lady Jia, dissipated his sword energy, and spoke slowly.

This one sentence made Lady Jia’s face turn pale.

Until Jia Cong and the entire Rongguo Mansion became alienated.

But this is the first time that this matter has been brought to light.

Can the Rongguo Mansion today still do without Jia Cong?
“Brother Cong, you are kind-hearted, so just let Baoyu go this time.”

“I’ll just stop letting him hang around in front of you in the future.”

After a long silence, Grandmother Jia spoke.

This time, Jia Cong did not reply. He shook his head slowly, then turned and left Rongqing Hall.

“Madam, Daiyu will come to greet you tomorrow!”

When Daiyu saw this, she also said goodbye and took Baochai away.

When they came out of Rongqing Hall, they saw Jia Cong waiting in the corridor.

He turned his back and looked at the koi in the pond in the yard.

“Brother Cong, I…”

Daiyu stepped forward and leaned gently against Jia Cong’s back.

“I didn’t know that cousin Baoyu would be so rude.”

“Sister Lin, I don’t mean to blame you, I just found something interesting…”

Jia Cong turned around and gently held Daiyu in his arms.

He looked up at Baochai.

“Sister Bao, you also discovered it, right?”

Baochai also possesses supernatural powers, but her level is half a level lower than Jia Cong’s.

Hearing this, his brows slightly furrowed.

“It feels wrong, but I can’t put it into words…”

“I originally thought that the jade nourished the person, but now it seems more like the person nourishes the jade.”

“I just don’t know who arranged these.”

“Eight Refined Magical Treasures, what a grand gesture.”

Jia Cong chuckled, then lowered his head and gently stroked Daiyu’s hair.

“I wanted to wipe out the root of the problem today, but then I thought that Sister Lin’s practice might be due to the spiritual jade.”

“It could be as short as a few months or as long as one or two years.”

“When the plan is completed, Sister Lin will be able to reach at least the fourth realm like me.”

“It won’t be too late to settle the accounts then.”

“I’ll just listen to Brother Cong on this.”

Lin Daiyu was confused by what she heard.

But we can generally guess that Jia Cong is planning ways to increase his strength.

I suddenly felt a sweet feeling in my heart.
