Mother Jia of the Red Chamber is Unkind

"Why?" Jia Mu asked with a smile.

Daiyu shook her head blankly, and said to Jia Mu: "That's weird, I didn't say anything, I just brought me some specialties from the south of the Yangtze River. I thought they would go to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing. Come on, I'm overthinking."

Jiamu thought for a while, La Daiyu lay down and asked her with a smile, "What did your wife say?"

Daiyu shook her head, and replied: "I sent the Xue family mother and daughter away. I only thought for a while and didn't say anything. Later in the evening, she discussed with my father about sending me to stay with you for a while."

"She is shrewd." Mother Jia smiled.

Daiyu couldn't figure it out, so she asked Mother Jia why she could explain it.

Jia Mu told her: "The Xue family has been in business for generations, and the word is the first. Your Aunt Xue is also unavoidable. Even when they lived in Rongfu, they used to communicate with each other, and they didn't even look at the ones that didn't. Before your second aunt left, a distant relative called Grandma Liu came to your house, and you have seen it too."

"Oh, I remembered, it's that interesting old farmer's lady. Our sisters all like her, she has a clever tongue and is simple." Daiyu recalled how funny Grandma Liu was at the beginning, and she still couldn't help curling up the corners of her mouth. happy.

"It's her. Your second aunt later gave her a hundred taels of silver. At that time, your aunt Xue was also there. Who didn't know that the Xue family made money like dung, but forcibly didn't give up a tael of silver. The maids even gave them two sets Clothes." Mother Jia carefully discussed the reason with Daiyu.

Daiyu frowned, feeling more defensive towards Xue's family.After thinking about it, she couldn't understand why Aunt Xue came here?Even if they were born in businessmen and only talked about benefits, their mother and daughter came to Baba's door, not just to watch her give her special products.

"But why do the two of them avoid talking about it?"

"It's not that time yet, how long has it been since I walked around with you. When I first arrived, I came to beg you directly. Isn't it too utilitarian, and I was rejected if I couldn't guarantee it. The two of them don't want to take risks, so they must want to have a relationship first, and when the time is right If you ask me again, you will not be able to refuse after you have received a lot of favors from others," Jia Mu explained.

"It's really shameless to have such scheming." Daiyu covered her mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, and couldn't help being ashamed for Baochai.

Mother Jia took the opportunity to ask Daiyu to stay in the mansion for a longer period of time, which was what Lin Ruhai and Sun Shi meant.The Lin family can be related to the Xue family, that is, the sisters Daiyu and Baochai joked about back then.Lin Ruhai is a man, so naturally he has nothing to do with Xue's family. As for Sun Muqing, she is the stepmother, and she was only a female gentleman back then, and has never been in Aunt Xue's eyes.It is absolutely impossible for the Xue family to want to communicate with each other now.

Besides, it can be said that Aunt Xue went to Lin's mansion in order to ask for it.She was afraid that the Lin family would reject her kindness by giving gifts at random, so she came up with a thoughtful plan and went out of her way to ask people to go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to buy some special products.And she sent them to the Lin Mansion under the pretext that Xue's caravan brought some special products when they entered Beijing.In this way, we can not only have a good relationship with Daiyu, but also allow Lin Ruhai to reminisce about the taste of his hometown, which makes him have a good impression of their Xue family.Besides, Aunt Xue can also get acquainted with Mrs. Sun by the way. As long as the conversation is speculative, the two families will slowly move around.

The last time I went to the Lin Mansion, things went smoothly.Aunt Xue was very satisfied and just waited for the implementation of the next plan.

After resting for two days, Aunt Xue felt that the time was almost up, so she sent someone to post to the Lin Mansion again, hoping to increase their relationship in time.She made a good plan, and this time she used Baochai's meeting with Daiyu as an excuse. There is no harm in dating girls, and she has no reason to refuse; especially since Mrs. Sun is a stepmother, it is even more difficult to refuse.This time Aunt Xue has prepared some precious and delicate gifts, which are guaranteed to be liked by all women, and Mrs. Sun will be no exception.As long as she can establish a good relationship with the Sun family this time and become a close sister or something, the Xue family will not have to worry about not having a backer in the future.How powerful Lin Ruhai is in the court now, with just one word from him, the Xue family will be able to maintain their current status as an imperial merchant forever.As for the Xia family who divorced, well, they have to be trampled under their feet, telling them to beg for mercy and regret it for the rest of their lives.

"Ma'am!" The servant replied breathlessly, holding the post in his hand.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue's face changed drastically, she got up and asked him: "Why, the Lin family rejected us? Well, their Lin family is now in a high position, and they treat all their former relatives and friends as dogs. It's time for the world to know, What kind of faces do they have?"

The young servant was stunned, looked at Aunt Xue in surprise, and said with trembling lips, "It's not a big deal, the butler of the Lin family is quite polite, invited me in for tea, and only the younger ones will return after explaining the reason."

"Bastard, who told you to stop talking!" Aunt Xue made an embarrassment in public, she was in a bad mood, and she lost any kindness.

The little servant hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to apologize, and tremblingly said to Aunt Xue: "The steward of Lin's mansion said that Miss Lin went to Rongguo Mansion and is not at home, so she can't see our girl."

"Going to Rongguo Mansion?" Aunt Xue frowned, and couldn't help but see Mother Jia's stern and stern face in her mind, and the frown deepened.Because of the eldest sister's matter, the old lady of the Rong Mansion is ruthless, and the Xue family broke up with them long ago.Once Daiyu went there, she really couldn't find an excuse to meet her.

What a Lin family!

If you don't go sooner or later, if you go at this time, it's clearly against her!

Aunt Xue's teeth chattered with hatred, scolded the boy away, and went into the room with a clouded face.Baochai heard it early, he was relieved, and then he took a breath.She breathed a sigh of relief because she didn't want to be low-key and flatter Daiyu, but she held her breath because of the Lin family's attitude towards their Xue family.

Why?

"Mom, we don't count on anyone anymore, we can live our own lives." Baochai insisted.

Aunt Xue frowned, and her face was full of sorrow: "My child, how do you know the hardships of the world? Look at your elder brother, who is still like that. Can we mother and father count on him in the future?"

Baochai lowered her head, and complained in her heart to her brother who was not up to date, but there was nothing she could do, after all, they were connected by blood.

"I underestimated their Lin family. I think the woman surnamed Sun is very powerful. Look at their Lin family before, Lin Ruhai clearly couldn't understand the rear house affairs. But after he married his wife, his life became more and more prosperous, and he added a Son! Hehe, all the blessings in the world have gathered in their Lin family. By the way, there is also a Rongfu. Speaking of them, I think of your poor aunt, and my heart hurts when I think about them." Aunt Xue beat her chest and stamped her feet, crying bitterly .

Baochai was also sad, holding Aunt Xue's arm and crying along.Not long after, the two mothers cried enough and cuddled up to each other to talk.

"Mom, you sent people to the south this time, did you make people look at my aunt?" Baochai thought of Mrs. Wang, and felt a little pity in her heart.

Aunt Xue looked embarrassed, and sighed: "Stop screaming, she is no longer the daughter of the Wang family, nor my eldest sister. She is just a lonely woman surnamed Wang living in an old house in the south of the Yangtze River. No Brothers and sisters, without a husband or a son, how can she live well? She is just a walking dead."

"It's hard for her to..." Live.The second half of the sentence choked up, but Baochai didn't say it.

Aunt Xue sighed a few more times, hugged her daughter's head and said: "Okay, don't mention her. Before leaving, I asked someone to leave a few thousand taels of silver for her, enough for her food and clothing for the rest of her life." It's over."

Baochai felt a little relieved and nodded.

Aunt Xue persuaded Baochai, and seeing her sleeping in bed, Fang led the people back out.After leaving the door, Aunt Xue summoned Mrs. Fang and said, "Don't miss out on Jiangnan's affairs. If the eldest girl asks, just say that we gave up the money. This child is kind-hearted, don't make her feel bad."

Mrs. Fang nodded in agreement, but she despised Aunt Xue in her heart.She is really cruel and merciless, regardless of blood relatives, why did she ever ask someone to go to the south of the Yangtze River to see Mrs. Wang.During this period of time, Mrs. Wang entrusted letters from Jiangnan, but she ordered them to burn them without even reading them.

Baochai pretended to close her eyes, and got up as soon as Aunt Xue left.Ying'er and Wen Xing heard the commotion in the house and came to wait on Baochai.

"Did you hear anything outside?" Baochai asked coldly.

Wen Xing hesitated and said, "Madam told Mrs. Fang, maybe I didn't hear clearly. It seems that Jiangnan didn't send anyone to see it."

Baochai's face became even more stunned, and Wen Xing was too frightened to say anything.Baochai was silent for a while, thinking that Aunt Xue lied to her because she was worried, but it was nothing.Some people in the mansion would criticize, Baochai specifically told the two servant girls: "Don't talk nonsense, you must have heard it wrong."

The two servant girls looked at each other and quickly said yes.

Baochai drank a cup of tea and calmed down.She sat on the couch with her legs crossed and thought about it for a long time, and finally felt that a daughter should share her mother's worries.Baochai immediately wrote a letter and handed it to Wenxing.

On the second day, a boy came to Rong Mansion to deliver a letter. The name of the letter was addressed to Miss Lin, but he ran away without declaring his home.The servant at the gate of the Rong Mansion was helpless and did not dare to neglect the letters from the distinguished guests of the mansion, so he gave the letters to Zhou Rui's family first.

Zhou Rui's family didn't dare to neglect, but they were more thoughtful, so they sent the letter to Wang Xifeng first.

Seeing the familiar handwriting, Wang Xifeng invited Li Wan, Yingchun, Tanchun and others to identify it, and it was indeed written by Xue Baochai.In this way, Wang Xifeng can't give it to Daiyu, so he first goes to Jiamu to ask for advice.

"It's a good move. I know we're interested in Miss Lin and we won't delay her affairs, so I wrote her a letter. I don't have a signature. I guess it's because I'm afraid we will stop you." Jiamu smiled while holding the letter.

"That's right, my mind has turned around several times. Old ancestor, we can't fulfill her wish, and this letter should be burned?" Wang Xifeng asked.

Mother Jia shook her head: "If we secretly burn the letter without telling you, Sister Lin, if someone tells her in the future, there will be a gap. Your Sister Lin is smart and will understand the truth. Call her!"

Wang Xifeng nodded and told Ping'er to invite her.

Daiyu was playing chess with Tanchun in Baoxia, they were very close, and the time came.She didn't expect Baochai's letter to come here, and she felt a little embarrassed.The Lin family has generations of scholars and a family of etiquette. At first, they just didn't have the nerve to reject them and cared about their face.But now they took advantage of the loopholes, sticking to them again and again like a dog's skin plaster, it's unbearable!

Daiyu took the letter from Ping'er with a smile and tore it into pieces.

Everyone was still in astonishment before they had time to recover their senses, Daiyu had come to Jia Mu's face, clamoring to eat the almond cake in the old lady's kitchen.

Wang Xifeng reacted the quickest. While the maid was clearing up the scraps of paper on the floor, she sharply saw three words written in black and white on the scraps of paper: "Brother Bao".
