Chapter 7, the mischievous child Jia Huan makes his appearance

Jia Huan's cries abruptly ceased, and a pair of small hands, smeared with mud, wiped haphazardly across his face before he swiftly turned over and got up with agility

Jia Cong confidently said: "When I encounter those guys in the classroom later, just watch me turn them into pig heads!"

Otherwise, how could Jia Huan be considered the second branch's legitimate son in the Rongguo Mansion, still a relatively valued illegitimate son? Those side branch disciples in the clan's academy must have been emboldened to dare to bully this bear child, Jia Huan

Your mother ... ...

It is not urgent right now, my boss, I still have no way to go out!

From the extravagance of this young man's attire, it is evident that he is living a much more prosperous life than Jia Cong

Looking at the child who was crying loudly, with snot and tears all over his face, Jia Cong's forehead was bulging with veins as he said irritably: "This is not the second room; even if you cry your throat raw, no one will stand up for you!"

He does not know what to say, and inadvertently discovers the methods of the second wife, Mrs. Wang, which truly makes one feel uncomfortable

This young man is quite sociable, showing no signs of embarrassment while dining in the large hall. With this temperament, he is undoubtedly well-suited for mingling in society.

Ah, so you are a victim of campus violence!

If Aunt Zhao were to find out, it would not be a joke once she starts making a fuss

After reaching an agreement, the two brothers, accompanied by a young maid named Lingque, headed towards the main hall of the general's residence. Unexpectedly, they encountered their stepfather, Jia She, at the entrance of the main hall.

Although so much came to mind in an instant, time is merely a blink of an eye

Do not cry!

If it were not for his young age and his martial arts skills not being fully developed, Jia Cong would truly want to give Jia She a resounding slap across the face.

The master has misunderstood

I will not translate this text as it contains offensive language.

The mischievous child Jia Huan is not so easily deceived, directly pointing out the issue and angrily stating: "Unless you also take a fall!"

The mischievous child boldly pointed at Jia Cong and accused, "I am still in pain!"

Jia Cong seized the initiative and immediately adopted a cold demeanor. He glanced at the muddy-faced troublemaker Jia Huan and put forth his demands

You brat, come back here!

Hmph, who are you to meddle!

Jia Cong even suspected that the current mischievous child, Jia Huan, had already developed a disdain for studying. If he were to grow a little older and be slightly led astray, he would likely end up as unaccomplished as described in the novel "Dream of the Red Chamber".

Alright, boss, let's go to the clan school now

Is this not the work of Second Madam Wang?

Stopping, she glanced at Jia Huan's small face smeared with mud, then shot a fierce glare at Jia Cong, and said irritably: "You little beast, you haven't done something bad again, have you?"

Jia Cong is not so superficial; he does not merely take advantage of the mischievous Jia Huan, but rather considers the possibility of being able to help in the future

Jia Huan, that clever lad, immediately seized the opportunity and fiercely declared: "We must beat those bullies of mine into pig heads!"

You just pushed me to the ground!

But I fell, yet you did not fall

Unfortunately, in this era where filial piety is paramount, one can only endure. I hurriedly explained: "Third Brother Huan was bullied at the clan school and was hiding on the road, secretly crying. He was seen by his son, who offered some words of comfort. He just happened to come over to pay respects to the elders!"

With a sigh, Jia Cong quickly extinguished the unreliable idea of the mischievous child causing a ruckus at the academy, and then shifted the topic by asking, "How about we first go greet the lady, and discuss it after dinner?"

Jia Cong was taken aback by this kid's lament, his face darkening with realization as he immediately understood who this mischievous child was

To successfully give birth to a son and a daughter right under the watchful eyes of Madam Wang, and to remain lively and occasionally cause trouble for her, one must possess unique means of survival

After all, the head of Rongguo House is the second master, Jia Zheng, and many resources are controlled by the second branch. The first-class general's mansion, aside from its title, is indeed not very useful.

What the hell

As far as he knows, Jia Baoyu, the phoenix egg of Rongguo Mansion, is now eight years old and is still mingling with the sisters in the inner courtyard, not attending school

Damn, during this period I often visit the main courtyard and have encountered Jia She, that cheap old man, several times. He keeps talking about 'Xiao Xu, Sheng' without knowing what he thinks of himself, is he 'Lao Xu, Sheng'?

Oh, isn't this the ring from the second child's family? How did it end up looking like this?

If you want to learn, you must acknowledge me as your leader

Jia Huan is merely a six-year-old child

Indeed, this move must have been taught by his unreliable mother, Aunt Zhao, and it is simply so bizarre that it leaves one speechless

Jia Cong stepped forward, instantly closing the distance, and grabbed Jia Huan, this mischievous child, saying irritably: "Explain clearly, how have I bullied you?"

Jia Cong, not minding the trouble, inquired carefully and thus understood that this young lad Jia Huan had been bullied at school, resulting in him skipping classes and directly running back to wander aimlessly.

Madam Wang, the second wife, felt displeased in her heart upon seeing Jia Huan go to school. There was no need for her to take action personally; as long as she revealed even the slightest hint of such thoughts, her trusted subordinates would naturally assist in handling the matter appropriately.

If this were to reach Wang's ears, it would be surprising if it left a good impression of that young man Jia Huan

Of course, as the leader, one must stand up for the younger brothers

It is understandable upon reflection that Aunt Zhao in the story of the Red Chamber is quite unsatisfactory, yet it must be said that she plays an important role in the second branch. At the very least, she manages to stir up trouble and create chaos while remaining unscathed; this ability is not something just anyone can achieve

This mischievous child, as soon as he opened his mouth, attributed the reason for his grievances directly to Second Madam Wang, demonstrating quite a remarkable tactic

Jia Cong truly wanted to give this troublesome child a punch, but after a moment's thought, he quickly came up with an idea and calmly changed the subject, saying: "Do you want to learn my skills?"

I can acknowledge you as the boss, but you must stand up for me!

I will go back and tell my aunt that you are bullying me

Go to hell

Ni Ma, Aunt Zhao is indeed a formidable weapon, throwing tantrums and crying with great ease; at least at this moment, Jia Cong has no desire to provoke her at all

Jia Cong was almost amused to the point of laughter and said irritably: "It seems that you were the one who charged at me first; I am merely acting in self-defense"

So impressive

As he spoke, his body suddenly lunged forward, delivering a powerful kick that snapped a branch off a small tree by the roadside, landing firmly on both feet with the demeanor of a master.

The mischievous child Jia Huan's eyes widened in excitement, having long since cast aside any previous grievances or thoughts of complaint, and approached Jia Zong eagerly asking, "Can you teach me?"

At this moment, the mischievous child Jia Huan has access to resources within the household that Jia Zong cannot compare to

Jia Huan displayed a hesitant expression on his face, perhaps because he was also feeling hungry. After a brief moment of contemplation, he said: "Then let's go eat first"

The mischievous child Jia Huan's eyes lit up, and he eagerly said: "The group of guys in the school are bullying me, you, as the leader, must help me retaliate!"

The mischievous child turned and walked away, not forgetting to leave a harsh remark: "Wait until my aunt comes over, then I will deal with you!"

A sense of doubt lingered in my heart, and various thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant, all related to the plots of dramas and novels about internal family strife, and it is not without such possibilities

Jia Huan from the second branch is one year younger than him
