"Mom, but brother is mad at you again?" As soon as Baochai entered the Lixiangyuan, she felt that the atmosphere was not right. cry.Baochai hurried forward and hugged her mother's shoulders, and asked in a low voice.

"Chai'er, you're back? It's nothing, Mom just thinks of your father and feels sad." Aunt Xue turned around to cover it up, but how could she fool Baochai, Baochai took her mother's hand and sat down next to her, She said softly: "Mom, you don't have to hide it from your daughter, except that it's brother who made trouble, Mom won't be so sad."

Aunt Xue sighed heavily and said, "Oh, Chai'er, Mom was hoping to live here so that your husband could take care of your brother, but... Chai'er, you always have ideas, help me quickly." Mom thinks of a way, so you can't let your brother make trouble."

Baochai pondered for a moment and said: "Mom, there are only our mother and daughter here, and the daughter is not shy, so she speaks clearly." Aunt Xue nodded and said, "My dear Chai, just say what you want , your brother is unreliable, and mother will have to rely on my hairpin from now on."

Baochai could tell in her heart whether she was sad or happy, and she said softly: "We came to Beijing to send our daughter as a candidate, but we have been here for several years without any movement, but let my brother squander the family property. Few, a few days ago my daughter checked the general ledger, but she was shocked. Half of our family property has been sold in the past three years, but none of the money has been returned to the account. After accepting the power from brother, brother will quarrel every three days and every five days, so there is no need for relatives to see the joke."

Aunt Xue trembled and asked why, that wicked son actually sold so much property?What the hell is he doing?Chaier, what should I do? "

Baochai said softly: "Mom, the plan now is to either arrest your elder brother severely, or marry your elder brother a daughter-in-law who has a family background. "

After hearing this, Aunt Xue frowned and said, "Chaier's words are true, but this place is no better than Jinling. Where can I tell your brother a wife he likes?"

Baochai took out the Bu Yao from Daiyu and asked, "Mom, what do you think of this Bu Yao?"

The scorching brilliance of that Bu Yao made Aunt Xue narrow her eyes, she took the Bu Yao and looked at it carefully before she said: "It turned out to be made by Du Yuzhai, the strange way looks very different, this Bu Yao I'm afraid you don't need thousands of taels of silver, Chai, where did you get it?"

Baochai got angry for no reason, and said in a muffled voice: "This is from Miss Lin. Not only me, but all the girls in the house have a gift that is not light, and it is no worse than this Bu Yao, even Miss Yun. Quite a few, I didn't look at the baggage, Lin girl only said that it was Jiangnan's clothes, I didn't really see what it was."

Aunt Xue said in surprise: "Ah, I don't think that this girl Lin is so generous. It's just a gift from you girls. I'm afraid it will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver."

Xue Baochai nodded and said: "Yes, this is not counted for the wives. If it is counted, this gift is estimated to cost tens of thousands of taels of silver. I don't want this girl Lin to have such a family without her parents. "

Having said that, Aunt Xue's heart became brighter, she smiled and said: "This girl Lin is also poor, she has lost her parents at a young age, Chai Er, you have to get closer to her." Yes. Alas, it's a pity that Lin Yatou is too young, and she is in Xiaoli, so it's hard to talk about it. If not, it's better to settle her name now."

Baochai said with a smile: "Mom, I watched coldly from the side. The old lady seemed to intend to hire Lin girl to Baoyu, but my aunt seemed to have other intentions. Seeing that she didn't like Lin girl very much, she wanted to do this. It all has to fall on my aunt." Aunt Xue sneered, "No matter how much the old lady wants, your aunt will never let Miss Lin in if she dies. Chaier, you only work on Miss Lin, and the rest Mom, let's figure it out."

These two women only have Daiyu's family property in their hearts, but they leave everything else behind, and they don't even think about how he can climb up to the noble family of the Lin family with his mere imperial merchant's family. It's really greedy, sowing the root of family destruction.

"Chai'er, now that your eldest sister has been promoted, you still ask her for this alternative matter. According to me, it's better to give this step to your aunt, and say that it is your heart, and I specially congratulate your sister on her promotion. It's a joy." Aunt Xue played with Bu Yao, although there was reluctance in her eyes, she still said it out.

Baochai's eyes dimmed, the garnets on this swing were bright red and hot, she didn't have a piece of jewelry that could match this swing, and now she had to give it away without even wearing it once, Baochai felt a little bit reluctant.She thought about it, and laughed quickly: "Mom is confused. She just wanted to use this to stab the eyes of my aunt and elder sister? Eldest sister is just a concubine, how can she use jewelry inlaid with big rubies? If she really wears it Don't you want to block the eyes of the empress?"

Aunt Xue sighed: "It's better for Chai'er to think carefully, let your brother look for other good jewelry, now your aunt and eldest sister are our backers, we must not neglect."

Baochai nodded, gritted her silver teeth secretly, and said in her heart: "When I enter the palace and get favored in the future, I will ask for all these back."

"Chai'er, Chai'er, what are you thinking?" Aunt Xue asked Baochai strangely after she went to talk to Baochai but didn't hear a response.

"Oh...it's nothing, my daughter is thinking about what to give my eldest sister." Baochai hurriedly replied, hiding her thoughts.

Mrs. Xue believed it was true, and said with a chuckle: "My Chai'er is still caring, Chai'er, let's go and sit with your aunt. She has a lot of things to do now, let's see if there is anything our family can help."

The mother and daughter of the Xue family cleaned up and went to Mrs. Wang's yard. Before they entered the house, they saw the daughters-in-law of the family going to and fro. With a promotion, your aunt will be busier."

Seeing the arrival of Xue's mother and daughter, the little maid hurriedly reported in. Not long after, she saw Jin Chuan'er and Yu Chuan'er supporting Mrs. Wang to welcome them out. Mrs. Xue and Baochai hurried forward to meet them. Mrs. Xue He laughed and said, "Why did my sister welcome you out in person!"

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "Look at what you said, I should welcome you as a sister." Mrs. Wang held Aunt Xue's hand while talking, and Baochai was busy supporting Mrs. Wang's arm. Madam nodded in satisfaction, and the three of them went into the room.

As soon as he sat down, the housekeeper's wife came to make a fuss, which made Mrs. Wang very busy.After finally finding a chance, Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "I'm really busy, all for the sake of my mother's family, I'm neglecting my sister and Bao girl."

Baochai hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't say that, I am very sorry that I can't help a group of Auntiechai."

Mrs. Wang patted Baochai's hand and said with a smile, "I still like Baochai the most, and people will be happy no matter how they see her."

Mrs. Xue said with a smile: "My sister likes Chai'er, that's her good fortune. My sister is really lucky. If you catch the dragon's son tomorrow, your mother will be rich and rich in the future."

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "I have borrowed my sister's auspicious words. I will not hide it from my sister. Now I am praying for my mother every day. I only hope that she can conceive as soon as possible, and my wish will be fulfilled after giving birth to a dragon son."

Baochai's face was flushed, she was still a big girl, so she was naturally embarrassed to hear this, so she pretended to enjoy the little things on the shelf, and turned her back to pretend that she didn't hear.

Mrs. Xue said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, your mother is young and her family is prosperous, she will naturally conceive a dragon child." Mrs. Wang took Mrs. Xue's hand and frowned: "Sister, you don't know, the baby in this palace There are countless concubines, and it will only take a few months for our empress to have a chance to be favored once again. To tell you the truth, my sister, I am worried about this matter in my heart. If I can do it a few more times, I don't have to worry about it." Wang Madame is concerned about it, but she is confused, and she forgot about Baochai for a while.Baochai was too embarrassed to listen any longer, so she walked out the door quietly, and just sat outside to watch Jin Chuaner tie flowers, but Mrs. Wang's words still drifted to her ears from time to time, and Baochai's ears couldn't help but her heart beat warmly. There is another layer of curiosity.

Inside the room, Mrs. Xue lowered her voice and whispered something to Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang raised her brows with joy and asked, "Is there really such a good thing?"

Mrs. Xue said with a smile: "I can still lie to my sister. This is the prescription of our shop. Even the shopkeeper doesn't know what the last two medicines are. This prescription was told to me by the master before he left. The workers who mixed the medicine after administering the medicine were all blindfolded and made it. If it weren't for this medicine, the Xue family would not have been granted the title of imperial merchant. This medicine was originally only given to the empress, but for our mother , we have to match more, so that our mother can conceive a dragon child sooner."

Mrs. Wang was so happy that she didn't know what to say, she just held Aunt Xue's hand tightly and said, "My good sister, if you can fulfill your niece, this kindness will never be forgotten."

Mrs. Xue smiled and said: "Look at what my sister said, only when my sister is cured can my sister be better. Don't worry, my sister will keep this matter with my sister. I will send the medicine to my sister as soon as it is prepared."

Mrs. Wang gratefully held Aunt Xue's hand tightly and said, "It's a real sister after all, good sister, you are more caring than anyone else, how can you ask my sister to thank you."

Mrs. Xue smiled and said: "My sister is serious. We are all members of the family. We can't thank you for anything. But whatever Chai'er and I can do for my sister, we will do our best, as long as my sister doesn't dislike us. "

Mrs. Wang knew that although Xue's family went to Beijing to comply with her request, she still had the idea of ​​giving Baochai as an alternative, so she smiled and said: "Sister, don't worry, as long as the empress is pregnant, she will definitely bring her along. Sister, it's better than outsiders to rest assured." The two sisters smiled at each other implicitly, and the deal was concluded.
