The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Although Jia Mansion was not very stable, Rongxi Hall was peaceful.

Jia Zheng woke up in the morning and heard that his son, nephew, and daughter-in-law had already turned better. He immediately felt relieved and took Sun Shaozong with him to drink a few cups of tea instead of wine.

It was said that after three rounds of tea, the two were discussing Baoyu's illness and the recent political situation in the court when they saw Lin Zhixiao coming in and reporting that everything was already prepared, waiting for Sun Shaozong to set off.

Sun Shaozong immediately stood up and arched his hand, saying, "Uncle, stay here. You can have Steward Lin see me off.”

Jia Zheng quickly followed suit and stood up, pretending to be dissatisfied, saying, "If it weren't for your presence, how could Baoyu survive this calamity? It doesn’t matter taking a few steps, even if you ask me to personally drive you home, is also reasonable.”

After a few more polite words, the two of them walked out of Rongxi Hall shoulder to shoulder.

When they arrived ahead, they saw a carriage that was already ready to stop, but the one sitting on it was Jia Yingchun's master and servant.

In the beginning, the masters and servants also came under the guise of seeking medical treatment. Now that Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng have recovered, it was not natural for them to continue staying at their mother's house for a long time. Therefore, they packed their bags and prepared to return to the Sun family with Sun Shaozong.

Seeing someone leading Sun Shaozong's horse diagonally down in front of the carriage, Sun Shaozong was ready to turn over and mount his horse to bid farewell and leave.

“Teacher.”

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly spread to everyone's ears, and they immediately saw Jia Lan rushing towards him, with two servant girls behind her who couldn't catch up.

When he saw Jia Zheng also present, the little guy quickly stopped his steps and gave a curt-like gesture, saying in a crisp voice, "Greetings to Grandfather.”

Seeing him sweating profusely as he ran, Jia Zheng quickly picked him up and took a pinch of his pink face. He also felt sorry and said, "Why are you running so fast? Can’t you two stop him?”

The two maids were stuttering, unsure of how to explain it, but Jia Lan rushed and said, "It's not their fault. I'm afraid I won't be able to send the teacher off in time, so I just took a few steps ahead first.”

As he spoke, he scratched his little head and said with some embarrassment, “It's not that I came late on purpose. It's really that I saw Uncle Huan crying on the way. I stopped and comforted him a few words, and I was a bit late.”

Li Wan would never tell her several-year-old son about the dirty things that Concubine Zhao did, but the two maids beside Jia Lan were both well aware, so they had a difficult time speaking just now.

Jia Zheng heard that Jia Huan was crying with tears streaming down his face, which was a bit awkward. However, he didn't want outsiders to see the joke. So he laughed and placed Jia Lan in front of Sun Shaozong, saying, "Since you're here to see off your teacher, I wonder what you want to say to him?”

Sun Shaozong didn't want to get involved in these bad things, so he didn't seem to have anything to do with it and lowered his body with a respectful demeanor.

Jia Lan blinked, looked at Sun Shaozong in embarrassment for a while, suddenly took out a bag of dimsum from his sleeve, and said, "This dimsum is made by my mother. It’s my favorite. You can take them with you on the way."

This child was as likable as his mother!

When they arrived at Sun Mansion, seeing Jia Yingchun timidly getting out of the carriage, although she didn’t dare to look him in the eye, her face was filled with some longing for a reunion.

Although the two of them have been living in that other courtyard these days, they haven't even seen each other's shadow. Sun Shaozong was still okay, and there wasn't much free time left or right to think recklessly, but Jia Yingchun had been imagining all day.

But...

Although Sun Shaozong could see her intentions, he still solemnly arched his hand and said, "I've been feeling a bit tired these past few days. If there's nothing urgent, I won't go talk to my brother today. Could you please let him know, Sister-in-law?”

This clearly referred to his Big Brother but secretly referred to not going to Jia Yingchun's house for the night. After all, he has not seen Ruan Rong and his son for several days.

This habit of liking the new and hating the old was absolutely unacceptable!

Jia Yingchun's face suddenly darkened a lot, but it was not easy to show it. She only responded shyly and went back to his backyard.

When Sun Shaozong returned home, he first had a close relationship with his son, until the little one cried loudly for his unstoppable kissing, and then he went to Ruan Rong's house with satisfaction.

After just a few words of conversation, he heard someone in the courtyard greeting him, saying that it was his Big Brother who asked him to go to the study to talk.

Was there really something big going on?

Sun Shaozong was curious and naturally didn’t dare to neglect, so he hurriedly rushed to the study.

“Erlang.”

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Sun Shaozu's solemn question, "How is the issue with the Megatron?”

Sun Shaozong was stunned for a long time before he realized that he was not talking about the Transformers but about the new type of musket.

But why was his Big Brother asking this?

He was a General from the patrol camp, not from the Shenji camp. What was his concern with this new type of firearm? Did it have anything to do with him?

Was there such a good thing?!

Upon hearing this, Sun Shaozong was overjoyed and hurriedly advised, "Go ahead, of course! Brother, despite the current situation of the Shenji Camp, in a few years, even the Huben Camp may be in danger.”

As he spoke, he explained the benefits and usage of the firearm to his Big Brother one by one.ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

Hig Big Brother has been in the military for many years and, naturally, has some insights. After listening to Sun Shaozong's explanation for a while, he hit the nail on the head and said, "This thing has its advantages and disadvantages compared to a crossbow, but with the two advantages of easy training and durability, it is enough to replace a crossbow player.”

“There’s more to it.”

Sun Shaozong added, "Nowadays, it's just starting to be produced, so the cost is higher. When it's mass-produced in the future, the price will be much cheaper than the commonly used longbows in the military.”

“Then this business will be stable!”

Sun Shaozu waved his fist excitedly and said, "Tomorrow I will tell the Prince that I am willing to go to the Shenji Camp to fill the gap.”

As he spoke, he suddenly slapped Sun Shaozong on the shoulder again and said with a burning gaze, "However, in this way, I'm afraid you'll have to work hard lately.”

Work hard?

Sun Shaozong was inexplicably mentioned by him, and what did this matter have to do with him?

“How will it not be related?”

Sun Shaozu glared and scolded, "If I go to Shenji Camp, it will take me at most two to three months, and I will have to go to Jinmen Mansion to lead a team for training. If you don't get her pregnant as soon as possible, who knows if I will delay until the year of the Ox…”
