What should I do when I meet my sister-in-law in Red Mansions?

Mom just said casually, and my brother even booed, I ignore you, go over there and have a look. "

After finishing speaking, without waiting for his mother's elder brother's reaction, he hurriedly saluted and left. Qing Que and the others hurriedly left the Nuan Pavilion with their girls.

"Why did Mom suddenly bring up this topic? Didn't you always want to get rid of your aunt and go out for your sister?"

"Well, speaking of it, it's your aunt's business that makes me feel a little inappropriate."

Xue Wang was a little embarrassed when she mentioned this matter, after all, she lent money to her sister behind her son's back, and now she thought of her son's previous warning, and felt a little uncomfortable.But Xue Pan didn't know the reason, and looked at his mother with great interest.

"Your aunt's house is the mansion of the Duke after all, with power and power, but every year, a lot of silver is sent to the palace, and the yellow gates in the palace are still going around. Even so, your cousin Yuanda didn't get through it." Let alone our family? You're right, we are merchants, so don't waste money and gossip. Seeing that your brothers and sisters can get married and have children in the future, I can rest in peace and save money. Go faceless to see your father."

Speaking of later, Xue Wang was a little sad. If her husband is alive now, she and her children can rely on her, that would be great!

"Mom, don't be like this. Although a son is not a father, he can still protect you and your sister. Believe in me once."

"Okay, believe me, how can you not believe it?"

Xue Wangshi also put away the sadness at the beginning, and said to his son with a smile.

"However, your aunt means to promise Baoyu the hairpin, do you think it's okay?"

Originally, Wang Xue didn't want to tell his son such an invisible matter so early, because he was afraid that he would be too young to keep his words.It's just that it's just mentioned so casually now, but Xue Pan turned pale with shock in the end.

"Mom, you didn't agree?"

Xue Pan stood up nervously and asked.

"I haven't agreed yet, but your aunt is quite sincere. She has always liked Baochai, and she is also the residence of the Duke of the state. It is not an insult to Baochai. Even Baoyu is also a good boy, with good character and knowledge. Compatible with your sister."

"Oh, Mom. Don't you understand? Baoyu's aunt can't make the decision at all. Besides, isn't it obvious that the old lady brought up the girl from the Lin family with Baoyu?"

"Then your sister is not worse than Miss Lin, so maybe you also think Miss Lin is better than your sister!"

"What did Mom say? No matter how good Ms. Lin is, she can't compare to my sister, but you can understand, no matter how much my aunt likes my sister, she can't be the old lady's master."

Seeing Xue Wang's shaken look, Xue Pan took a sip of tea, and said persistently,

"Mom, what do you think of Baoyu?"

"He has a good temper, and is gentle to the girl's family. The most important thing is that in the future, this huge Duke's mansion will be his. Pan'er, tell me, it's really good that Chai'er can live the life of this official wife in the future." ,Right?"

The more she talked, the more excited Xue Wang was. It seemed that she could see Baochai calling the wind and rain in the Rongguo Mansion and supporting her natal family, which made Xue Pan smile wryly.

Seeing his son's expression was wrong, Wang Xue asked a little surprised,

"Don't you think there's something wrong again?"

"Mom, Baoyu has a good temper and is gentle with girls, but you don't look at him, is he gentle with all girls, even a girl, he is gentle, how can he be wholehearted in getting married with his sister in the future?" Live on. Furthermore, how can Baoyu inherit the government of this country? After the old lady dies, shouldn’t the uncle’s family be separated and set up as a separate family?”

Aunt Xue felt a little embarrassed when she heard her son's words. Her son's words were simply saying that her sister was coveting her uncle's property!

"Even so, the old lady will arrange Baoyu's future life before she dies. You don't have to worry about that. Besides, your uncle and aunt are Baoyu's son-in-law. Even if they are the property of the second wife, they are enough for Baoyu to eat and drink."

"Mom, you said that this is all arranged by the old lady and uncles and aunts. What about Baoyu? Why don't you think about whether Baoyu can afford a family. Getting married and living is not just a trivial matter. If There is a storm, so is it possible that my younger sister is going to protect him from disasters?"

"It's not as serious as you said. Besides, as long as people like us don't violate the king's law, their wealth will continue forever!"

Xue Wang rolled his eyes at his son, and expressed his dissatisfaction with his alarmist words.

"Mom, you eat more salt than your son. When your father was alive, you went through fewer twists and turns? Who are you trying to fool? You don't even look at it. After the new emperor came to the throne, Caishikou has been in trouble every day. Where are official women and children sold, they are similar to livestock. How can you say that this mansion can continue to live in peace?"

Xue Wang's face turned pale from the shock of her son's words, but she still had a deep-rooted perception that the Jia family was better than the Xue family, so she still didn't believe it, but these words could only be stuffed in her stomach, and she couldn't talk to her son.

Seeing his mother's situation, Xue Pan knew that she still had some disbelief, and sighed in his heart, I'm afraid it won't make sense today, so let's wait for the future.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these disappointing things. If Mom has a good rest, my son will accompany you around again. I built a greenhouse in the mansion. It is now full of flowers and leaves, so it is worth seeing. of."

Xue Wang was also interested, so he went to visit his so-called greenhouse with his son.Unexpectedly, Baochai, who had nowhere to go, was accompanied by his daughter-in-law, who was in charge of the inner court, and took a step ahead. She was cutting flowers with great interest at the moment, and when she saw her mother and brother, she rushed to greet her.

"Mother, look at how well my brother has made this place, but it is quite to my liking. It is bare in winter, or those dead things seem a little boring. Only such fresh ones are considered good. Just cut them Take some down, take them back, and give them to the sisters to decorate the house. Brother, what do you think?"

"Of course it's good. I'll send some to each room later, and my sister will leave it alone."

However, Xue Pan remembered that people complained about Xue's family sending palace flowers, and hurriedly accepted the matter.Aunt Xue also laughed,

"That's right. Your brother's behavior is justified. He handles things well and is not afraid of what others will say."

"Okay, then I don't care about it. I just let Qingque and the others weave a few flower baskets and take them back to give away. My brother is not allowed to say that I spoil things."

"Okay, whatever you like, it's just a few flowers, even if you tear down the house, brother can only applaud."

"Brother is hurting me in a disguised form. Mom, you should take care of him!"

Seeing their children getting along well, Xue Wang was also happy, and just watched them making fun with a smile on his face.

After lunch, everyone went to rest in their respective yards, and Xue Pan arranged for people to deliver flowers to the masters of Jia's mansion.

In the afternoon, Xue Pan sent his reluctant mother and sister back to Lixiangyuan. The three of them drank tea and sipped snacks together.

"Mom, when are we going to move? Living here, my son has a lot of inconvenience. Besides, I, a grown man, don't know much about the internal affairs of our house. Inside, I don’t know anything. Besides, my sister is getting older, and it’s time to learn how to be a housekeeper. Recently, I asked a friend to hire a nanny from the palace for my sister, so I can’t send it here.”

"Hey, let me think about it again. It's not long since I met your aunt. I really don't want to part with you."

"Where are we separated? They are all in Beijing. If Mom misses Auntie, she can also invite Auntie to visit our house and relax. You see, Auntie doesn't go out very often. What do you think?"

Seeing her elder brother looking desperately at her, Baochai took a sip of tea in a leisurely manner, and then nodded in agreement with Xue Pan's expression of wanting to kill someone and wipe his neck,

"Indeed, what brother said is also reasonable, but what mother said is also reasonable!"

Xue Pan's expression of joy froze on his face, and Baochai couldn't stop laughing at him.

"It's just that it's true that my brother doesn't know how to manage house affairs. Now he's going to Mr. Chen's place and our house. He's running around the house. I think my brother has lost weight recently. Think about it again, if you don't feel sorry for your brother, Then let him keep busy!"

"Hey, since you brothers and sisters agree to move, let's choose a date to move during the Chinese New Year, but you have to dare to move before the year."

Xue Wang sighed, now that her son is in charge of the family, and her daughter, who has always been stable and mature, is also facing her son, what else can she say.What's more, seeing her son so thin now made her feel distressed.

Of course, the Xue family's mother and daughter don't know about Xue Pan exercising to lose weight. He is now a little thinner in clothes and fleshy in undressing. Although he doesn't have abdominal muscles yet, he is not the same as before. Just look good.

In this world, people are judged by their appearance.Xue Pan knows this truth better than anyone else, and he is the beneficiary, so he will not let himself become that stupid.

Even if anyone sees Xue Pan now, they will subconsciously excuse him, saying that he was young and ignorant before, but now that he is older, he knows that he has made progress, and he has completely changed the image of the old domineering king. , Who doesn't praise him "The prodigal son will never change his money".

Even Jia Zheng loved this nephew very much, and often used him to teach Baoyu, hoping to stimulate him and make him improve, but he didn't want to have the opposite effect, and Baoyu hated Brother Xue more and more.

He's a good person, he's quite gentle, and he just reads and writes all day long, which is really boring.No wonder Sister Bao is like this too, it's really not cute, it's Sister Lin who knows what she wants!Never persuade yourself to study and make progress.That's good, but sister Lin is going back to Yangzhou now, I really don't know when she will come back!Alas, it would be great if Uncle Lin didn't write a letter to pick up Sister Lin.
