Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 558
This is so embarrassing!

Xue Hong was emotionally unstable just now, and he only focused all his attention on the conversation with Bai Diao'er, but he didn't notice that there was someone behind him at all, so he didn't know when Yinxiang and Fu Qing came. You know, they didn't listen to what you said just now, did they?
Xue Hong looked at Fu Qing, and saw that his expression was a little unnatural, but Yin Xiang was snickering aside, don't ask, isn't that what you heard?Xue Hong glared at the two men angrily, then ran to the side and pretended to be deep.Who can understand his complicated mood now?
Yin Xiang smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. This kid Fu Qing has already made it clear to his parents. Master Li Rongbao is very satisfied with your sister. I think your sister's marriage should be settled. Slightly~"

"What... what?"

I'm going, can you be more sloppy?

A suspicious blush appeared on Fu Qing's face, and he explained: "Although you were half-drunk and said that you would betroth your sister to me that night, this matter is related to the reputation of a daughter's family. The sound insulation effect is very good, but after all, the walls have ears. I always feel that this matter should be treated seriously. So, I went back and tentatively talked about this matter... I didn't expect that Lingmei was in the circle of noble girls in Beijing My mother just inquired about her, and nine out of ten people praised her, so...in short...even if I, Fucha Fu Qing, are lucky, I stumbled into such a thing by accident Good marriage, I was thinking that if the wedding date is really lucky, I will go to the temple to fulfill my vow."

Let alone Xue Hong didn't understand what they said about going to the temple to fulfill their vows, even Yin Xiang was at a loss.

Fu Qing explained: "After the woman I was betrothed to passed away, I made a wish before the Buddha. If I can get a happy marriage in this life, I will make a golden statue for the Bodhisattva in return..."

Hearing this, Xue Hong couldn't help laughing and said: "I thought you were a seed of infatuation, so it turns out that the young man of the Fucha family who is rumored by outsiders to be passionate and guarding his body is fake, and it is true that he is looking for beauty? Tsk tsk tsk... ...If you say that, then you go to worship that Bodhisattva is not only very effective, but also very caring for you, allowing you to meet our Baochai, which is a blessing from your previous life!"

Although this marriage is still at the stage where the horoscope has not yet been decided, Xue Hong has already used the airs of the prospective second uncle to talk to Fu Qing.And Fu Qing also surrendered. He had no objection to anything Xue Hong said, but just nodded in agreement. Fu Qing pretended not to hear the jokes and sarcastic remarks he made one after another.

In the end, Yinxiang couldn't listen anymore, and stopped Xue Hong with a smile: "You bully him like this, you are not afraid that your sister will hate you in the future? You don't have to rush to bully him at this moment. Now that the Fucha family has this heart, you Why don't you go back and clarify this matter with your parents, so that they can be mentally prepared?"

Xue Hong glanced at Fu Qing after hearing this, and said: "I also have the same intention, so let's save what I haven't finished today for next time. Fu Qing, I won't be polite to you anymore. , I’ll call you that from now on. Well...after the marriage between you and my sister is finalized, let’s go to Fuying Restaurant for a drink, and I can tell you something about her.”

Fu Qing was overjoyed here, and personally sent Xue Hong out of Shisan Baylor Mansion, and watched Xue's carriage go away in the doorway, turning into a black spot that could not be seen before turning back to look for it. Yinxiang.

And after Xue Hong came back here, she told the elders of the family from the beginning to the end, and Xue Yi and Xue Wang's faces showed gratified smiles.

Xue Wang said: "It's so good, it shows that their family attaches great importance to Baochai. In fact, marriage is a lifelong event, and family status is actually secondary. The most important thing is that a daughter will not be punished if she marries. "

Xue Yidao: "You don't have to worry about that. Although the Fucha family is the most honorable person in the three banners of Manchuria, the Fucha family has a simple and simple family style. Di wife, I have never heard of any woman who marries into the Fucha family will suffer. What's more, what is the identity of the Fucha family? If Baochai can really marry into it, it will be a benefit to our Xue family It's not one or two. Now I only worry about one thing, that is, there is too much disparity in the status and status of our two families in the capital, and I am afraid that we will be in the wrong household."

Xue Hong quit after hearing this: "The world is like this. People like to judge a person with colored glasses, and they have to classify people into different categories. I once read in a book There is a story about an Arab. His name is Afanti, and he is a person who specializes in speaking for the poor people. Legend has it that once Afanti went to a large bathhouse to take a bath. Since he was powerful and rich, he wanted to drive Afanti out of the bathhouse. The unreasonable Master Bai said that his status was more noble than Afanti's. If Afanti didn't follow his wishes, he would do it. , then we need to find someone to throw him out. But instead of being angry, Afanti calmly told him something wonderful."

Xue Yi asked: "What is it?"

"Afanti said, 'Dear Lord Bai, now we are in the bathhouse, if we are noble, then each of us only has a towel on our bodies, shouldn't we be equally noble'.

What Avanti said is a principle that we should have understood a long time ago, everyone is equal when they take off their clothes.No matter how rich or powerful you are, as long as you are human, which one is not naked when you land, and which one should not be equal to others? "

Xue Yi listened with gusto, but he still wanted to give Xue Hong a big drink: "The Afanti you said may be right, but we are in the Qing Dynasty, not Arabia. Now we are talking about Baochai's marriage. There is no such thing as Mr. Bayi. All I know is that our family’s identity is still very embarrassing. If we want to be worthy of the Fucha family, I am afraid that even if we take out the ladder to climb to heaven, it will not be possible overnight. The difference is far away, and those who will suffer in the future Only Baochai, isn't this marriage very insecure?"

If most of the fathers were changed, as soon as they heard that a famous nobleman like the Fucha family was going to marry their own daughter, wouldn't they have already happily prepared a dowry for their daughter, just waiting for the moment when the sedan chair was delivered?Only a father like Xue Yi who really loves Baochai would say such a thing.
