Chapter 169 Security
After the banquet, Jia Daishan and his entourage boarded their carriages to return to their residence. As was his habit, Jia Zhen followed Jia Hu and wanted to get into the carriage as well.
Jia Jing looked at it and grabbed it.
"Where are you going?"
Jia Zhen realized what was happening and chuckled:
"Father, I forgot."
Jia Daihua looked at his grandson, who was reluctant to leave, and came to his side.
"We'll see each other again tomorrow. We see each other every day, so why are we so reluctant to part?"
Jia Zhen retorted in a low voice,
"Grandfather, you don't understand."
Jia Daihua was helpless. These three boys seemed to want to be tied together every day. He had never been this close to his brothers when he was a child!
Back in the courtyard, Jia Hu and Jia Zhu washed up and lay on the bed. Jia Hu looked at his adorable little brother's tiny feet, swaying back and forth, and smiled:
"do you happy today?"
Jia Zhu laughed and said:
"Of course I'm happy, everyone listens to me."
Jia Hu was still worried that his younger brother couldn't go, as he would throw a tantrum. He never expected that the problem would be solved so easily.
Jia Zhu laughed and said:
"Brother, let's go together when I grow up."
Jia Hu nodded.
"Yes, we brothers can travel around and have fun in the future. We'll make our own decisions then."
"Going with the Emperor means you have to obey his every command; there's no freedom, and nothing fun about it."
Jia Zhu nodded vigorously.
"Yes, we'll make the decision ourselves."
Jia Hu realized that Jia Zhu was truly not angry, and at that moment he felt relieved.
He understands the pain of having everyone participate while leaving only one person behind.
He didn't want his younger brother to feel regret.
But the younger brother was very sensible and knew it was because he was too young and that he was with the emperor.
Perhaps because his family provided him with enough security, the younger brother wasn't angry at all; instead, he was looking forward to going out to play tomorrow.
Jia Daishan and his mother, who were still awake, were discussing their future grandson, Baoyu.
Grandmother Jia couldn't understand why she was spoiling her grandson so much, even though everyone had a bad opinion of him. Was she getting senile?
Jia Daishan, on the contrary, understood that even if his grandson was incompetent in many ways, he was definitely a very filial son to his wife.
Without her husband and with her son being a disappointment, she could only pin her hopes on her grandson.
But this grandson is clearly a good-for-nothing, and I wonder what his wife thought in the end.
Grandmother Jia said helplessly:
"I often thank God for bringing Hu'er back."
Compared to the life Hu'er described, life now is so good it feels like a dream.
If those things really happen one by one, my old bones really won't be able to take it.
Jia Daishan smiled and said:
"Since it hasn't happened yet, there's no need to dwell on it."
Now the Jia family is united, and their lives are getting better and better.
Don't dwell on the past. Getting too caught up in those things will only affect your present.
After hearing this, Grandmother Jia laughed heartily.
"Alright! I was right. I wouldn't trade such a wonderful life for anything else."
Jia Daishan and his mother chatted for a while longer about the southern tour.
Jia Daishan asked:
“I’m not familiar with the Zhen family in Jiangnan, but your family has connections with them.”
Grandmother Jia shook her head:
“My family has no connection with his family. Since there is no connection now, it must be because something happened in the future that brought them into contact.”
Jia Daishan frowned, pondering how he could have any connection with the Zhen family, even though the two places were so far apart and they didn't usually have any contact, and the two families weren't related.
