Chapter 408
Xue Ying didn't know what to say for a while, so she coughed awkwardly: "Hey, that...you said you want to adopt a stepchild, look, how is Hong'er?"

Mrs. Qu's eyes almost popped out when she heard this. Oh my god, her master really dared to think about it.Hong'er was admitted as a scholar at the age of eight. She was a magical power and the daughter of a big family. How could they be willing to adopt Hong'er?
"Okay, of course! It's not that I said to destroy my prestige, Hong'er alone is stronger than ten Qiu'er! But, are parents willing?"

"Hmph, it's up to God to make things happen, but it's up to people to plan things. My eldest brother and his wife will definitely not agree, so let's find a way to get them to agree."

"Is there any good way, sir?"

"The way...I'm telling you, we can do this..."

That night, no one knew what Xue Ying and his wife were plotting, but before they could say that they wanted to adopt Xue Hong, a new batch of guests came to the Xue family mansion.

"Second brother, what did you say, Qin'er is here?"

Baochai heard exciting news when she woke up early in the morning. God knows how difficult it would be to communicate with Baoqin?She usually received Baoqin's letters one after another, and her replies filled a small wooden box, but there was nowhere to deliver them.

The letters were written about insignificant things, but the joy I felt every time I received a letter from Baoqin could not be expressed in words.

Now that her favorite cousin is coming, how happy should Baochai be?You know, since the last time we parted, their lives have changed a lot, and they have a lot to say, and Baochai can't wait to see her right away.

Xue Hong smiled and said, "Hurry up and report that Second Uncle and his family will be here in a few days. This time, we are not traveling by water, but by dry road. My eldest brother has already sent people from the caravan to the suburbs to wait. When I saw Second Uncle The carriage of the family will come back and inform us. Now you can go and help mother, clean up the courtyard for the second uncle's family."

Hearing what Xue Hong said, Baochai couldn't be more happy, and didn't care about anything else, just went ahead to find Xue Wang to study how to arrange the courtyard.

Because I don’t know when my second uncle’s family will arrive. Maybe they will arrive early tomorrow morning?So that day, Baochai kept watching the servants working in the house, and finally managed to clean up the whole yard in front of the lamp.

And the second room didn't keep Baochai waiting, and came early on the third day.

The first and third bedrooms of the Xue family arrived at the gate early. Baochai saw the carriage from a distance and wished he could get on the horse and go to greet him. Xue Hong saw Baochai at the side and laughed and said, "I'll go pick up the tadpole." "My son" then rode forward.

Sure enough, Xue Hong's horse stopped in front of the carriage in the second room. Xue Hong didn't know what he said to Xue Biao. The carriage was obviously moving faster.

After finally arriving at the gate of Xue's mansion, after everyone saw the ceremony, Baochai grabbed Baoqin and let Baoqin salute Xue Yi and Xue Ying in an upright manner, and dragged her to the backyard.

"Come here, Qin'er. This is the courtyard I cleaned up for you the day before yesterday. Are you satisfied with it?"

Bao Qin followed Baochai and took a look around. The house was clean and tidy. The most interesting thing was that all the furnishings were not valuable antiques, but gifts given to each other by the two little sisters over the years.Baochai was usually treasured very much and would not be shown to anyone else in the box. Now that he had taken it out to display, he felt that everything was bright and well-preserved, as if he had just bought it yesterday.

Baoqin was moved, and said, "Sister, you have a heart."

Baochai took Baoqin's hand: "The advantages of us two sisters are naturally not in this. When the two of us from the third bedroom come, I miss you even more. You don't know, I often say that I will pay my mother back." Listen to my brothers, even if those two can be half as good as my Qin'er, how much trouble will our family have to save? How much less worry will we have? But our Qin'er is [-]% too good. Even if the two of them are remade, they won't be able to do it again. I can’t learn one-tenth of Qin’er’s skills!”

Xue Baoqin was amused by Baochai's words and laughed: "My good sister, how come you have improved so much in your flattery skills after not seeing each other for several years? What on earth caused you to say such things about those two sisters? Tell me quickly. Listen, oh, yes, there is also the matter of sister Ruyi. You know, I accepted your letter because of fate. The letter said something unclear. My father liked to run away from home since he was a child. In the early years of our family, He doesn’t know anything about what happened, and I’ve been bored for several years without asking him properly. Now you have to explain everything clearly!”

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you right now. But there are so many, where should I start?"

Here Baochai took Baoqin's hand and gave a vivid speech about everything she knew about the marriage between Princess Ruyi's mother and the prince, as well as why Sanfang came to Beijing and what happened after entering Beijing. Everything was told to Bao Qin in detail.It's just that these things were too long. By the time Baochai finished talking, it was already dinner time, and Ying'er came over to remind her several times. Today is the first day of Erfang's trip to Beijing, and the family must get together to have a meal. .The two sisters then put down their hands and went to the dining room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them entered the door, they heard Xue Baoqiong say in a strange manner: "I'm afraid that others will not know your sister's deep love. You really don't know what to do if you ask your elders to wait for the reunion dinner!"

Baoqin was taken aback when she heard this, firstly, this is not what a lady should say, secondly, even if the two of them came late, the elders would naturally teach them, why does Xue Baoqiong need to speak out?

Baochai was quite used to this movement, she had already seen the strangeness, and hurriedly took the Baoqin to salute the elders to make amends, and with Xue Yi's approval, Fang sat down to eat.

After dinner, the elders chatted. Baochai and Baoqin went to Baochai's room again. Xue Pan and Xue Hong also took Xue Pan to talk. The unpopular Baoqiong was scolded by his father and returned to the courtyard to think However, Baoqi didn't feel like being alone, so she went back to her room early.

Here Baochai, Baoqin patted her chest: "Oh, I still don't believe my sister said that Baoqiong can't get on the stage, but just now... she is just... what? It's weird, yes, it's weird. I Do you remember that she has been educated? How come she can’t even do the four words of knowledge and understanding? Didn’t Third Uncle invite someone to teach her?”

Baochai sneered and said: "Education? When did the third uncle ask about the education of the daughters? Everything was taken care of by our good third aunt. However, when a daughter is born to Xiao Mu, isn't that what the third aunt is like, Baochai? Just look at her mother and you will know why Joan will become what she is today."
