Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 689 Prepare in advance
After hearing this, Baochai complained, "I'm not as free as I used to be at home now! Second brother, you don't know, my mother said that I have already promised him, and I can't behave like before. In the days when you are not around, she is not as free as I used to be." Restraining me with those rules, waiting quietly in your room is already out of etiquette. If the person I send to deliver the letter is found out by my mother, I will be punished for copying several articles of "Women's Rules" and "Women's Training" , it’s better for me to wait like this. Let me see, after going out for a long time, is my brother injured?”

Xue Hong couldn't help but smile when she heard this, this younger sister was the most dignified, decent and prudent "Sister Bao" in front of others, but in front of herself, she was the most real and lovely little sister.She doesn't have to think about others all the time, and she doesn't have to care about what others think of her.

After looking back and forth at him several times, Baochai smiled and said, "Yes, yes, this is my handsome second elder brother, come back safely~"

When Baochai looked at herself, Xue Hong also looked Baochai up and down.We haven't seen each other for almost a year, and Baochai will be [-] this year. If it wasn't for the national funeral, I'm afraid she would have been married long ago, and she might have become a mother.And in the past few years, Baochai has also grown into a big girl. She is originally a plump body. In the past two years, the Xue family's good water and food have nourished her water and spirit, and she has a mature charm, making her more beautiful. Exciting.

Xue Hong sighed: "Isn't it true? Even our Baochai has grown into a big girl, and I almost don't recognize her brother anymore."

Baochai smiled and said angrily: "My brother is used to making fun of me. Hehe, actually, I am waiting for you here, and I have something serious to tell you. I have already heard that Prince Yong is going to be the master to choose between you and Miss Lin. Day? Tomorrow, I will go to Lin Mansion, our poetry club. Tomorrow it will be the turn of Miss Lin, so I will tell her the good news. You have been away for so long, do you have anything to tell her? of?"

Xue Hong smiled and said, "You've waited for me until now, and that's actually why?"

"Isn't it? I know you and Miss Lin, oh no, the second sister-in-law is going to get married soon, and I'm a younger sister who is really happy from the bottom of my heart! I just want to see her tomorrow, and it's not for the convenience of my brother." ?"

Xue Hong shook his head helplessly: "You girl... you go to your poetry meeting tomorrow and don't say anything to her. It is important for me to visit my father-in-law in person for marriage. Even if there is anything If you want to say it, it's the same when I tell Yue Zhang, but it seems to be serious, so it's better."

Baochai suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, how could I forget this? Is it my brother, or you are thoughtful. Then...it is not early, I will go back to rest first. If When I wake up tomorrow morning, my eyes will be blurred, and they are going to laugh at me again."

After Baochai finished speaking, she stood up to leave, but there was some hesitation at her feet. Xue Hong looked at her with a funny face, knowing clearly that she still had a question she hadn't asked. She also knew that girls' families are thin-skinned, so he, the older brother, had no choice but to Sighed: "You don't want to ask about Fucha Fu Qing's situation?"

Baochai's face suddenly turned red, and he even stammered a little: "I...I have nothing to ask. Those...the family letters that were passed down all have written about him, so it doesn't mean that they are all good. Is it? Then ask...what are you asking for?"

Xue Hong shook his head: "Girl, what else can you and my second brother not be honest about? Let me tell you, Fucha Fu Qing has always been under the command of General Funing'an. He also participated in many wars, large and small, and even helped with logistics scheduling. He is General Funing'an's capable right-hand man, and his name is also high on the credit list.

As for whether he was injured... Well, it is inevitable that there were some minor bumps, but none of them were serious. At least I met him before returning to the capital from Xining, and he was still alive and well. "

Baochai said that she didn't want to ask, but when Xue Hong said it, she listened very carefully. Seeing that Xue Hong had finished speaking, she felt embarrassed again, and said: "It's getting late, let's go to bed early, I... I Let’s go back first.”

Seeing that Baochai was really going out this time, Xue Hong deliberately complained: "Hey, our Baochai is also a big girl with worries. How do you say that? Oh, yes, this is worthy of the name." It’s hard for a female college student to stay in school~”

Although Baochai didn't look back, he paused for a moment, then hurried away, leaving Xue Hong laughing.

That night, Xue Hong had a good night's sleep, and the next day she went to her parents' place to say hello refreshed.Xue Yi had already come down to the court at that time, and when he saw Xue Hong, he said: "Father, I met Mr. Lin in the morning court today, oh no, I should call him in-laws, as I have already said, I will formally visit him tomorrow. Discuss the wedding matters. If the days are bad, let's not be in a hurry. If the prince has any results, he will send someone to tell us, but it is better to make preparations before the wedding, don't you think?"

Xue Hong said with a smile: "Everything depends on father's arrangement. It just so happens that the boy will go to the Ministry of War today. Although this infantry school does not need to go to court, it is also necessary to respond to errands. Although the prince has already said hello, the boy always It’s not good to not even show your face. When I came back from the Ministry of War, I still want to see Ziying. I haven’t seen his son since he was born, so it must be a present to be decent, isn’t it?”

Xue Yi smiled and said: "Very well, you go now. Don't forget to prepare the things to be sent to the Lin family tomorrow when you're done. Although it's just an ordinary visit, it's going to your father-in-law's house after all, so you have to make preparations early."

"Yes, the child knows."

It didn't take much effort to go to the Ministry of War. Xue Hong just went there by car. He explained his situation with the officials in charge of Dianmao of the Ministry of War, and also said that he would be busy with his marriage in the future.Anyway, his official position is usually free when he has nothing to do. On the contrary, the officials of the Ministry of War are flattered to see him so cautious and act like they take them seriously.

After returning from the Ministry of War, Xue Hong went to the Mansion of General Shenwu.

Feng Ziying heard that Xue Hong was coming, so she went to take him to her study in person.In Feng Ziying's study, his father Feng Tang was also there.

Feng Tang is about 50 years old, with gray hair and beard. Although he is old, he is a person who practiced martial arts. Although he has long been an official at home, he has never put down his weapon in his life, and he still looks so energetic.
