Happy Life in the Red Chamber

Chapter 119 Aunt Xue 7

Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang were only interested in blaming each other, and forgot to ask Jia Lian which family Daiyu was going to marry.

Jia Lian would never tell them that Daiyu chose Xue Pan.At the beginning, he couldn't understand why Xue Pan was so enthusiastic to accompany them back to the south, arranging an official ship, and looking for an imperial doctor.

It wasn't until I arrived in Yangzhou that I found out that this boy was after Cousin Lin, but Jia Lian felt that Daiyu's marriage to Xue Pan was much more reliable than Baoyu's.Among other things, Xue Pan is the Lord Hou who was conferred by the emperor himself, and Daiyu was Mrs. Hou when she was married.

Besides appearance and character, Baoyu is good-looking, but Xue Pan is not bad either.Xue Pan used to be a bit of a mess, but now he has changed his mind, turned his prodigal son back, and cleansed himself. There is not even a housekeeper in the yard.

Looking back at Baoyu, how many maids in his yard are clean?So the old lady and the second wife thought he was still a child.

Then compare the second wife with Aunt Xue, and the second wife privately mentioned that Daiyu is either a little bitch or a sick child.As for Aunt Xue, she laughed before speaking to others, and every time she came, she would hold on to Daiyu and not let go, even Baochai became close to Daiyu.If she becomes an aunt in the future, the relationship must be the same.

Before departure, the Lin family was busy packing their luggage, and Xue Pan was not idle either. He bought a lot of things while shopping with Jia Lian.Some were bought for Daiyu, but most of them were bought for Mingxi and Baochai.

When he entered the house, several carriages followed behind him.Since Xue Pan changed his mind, Mingxi did not restrain him in terms of money.Before he went to Yangzhou, Mingxi gave him [-] taels of silver in addition to his own private money.

Xue Pan is no longer the young master who didn't eat the sufferings of the world. He runs around the farm every day.Every time I come back, I will sigh with Mingxi that those tenant farmers are not easy.After working so hard for a year, they can't save money, and if there is a disaster year, they can't even eat enough.So this guy rarely throws away money like before. He stays with those tenant farmers all day long, and he doesn't actually have much money to spend.

But he was still as generous to Mingxi and Baochai as ever, as long as he could see something he liked, he would like to buy them all back for them.

On the day he arrived home, Batu happened to come to give Baochai a leather bag.Since Celing knew that his younger brother was engaged, he would send people to the capital every once in a while to deliver all kinds of gems and good leather.

Batu saw him with a fawning expression on his face: "Brother, is this journey very hard?" Xue Pan patted Batu on the shoulder: "It's okay to take the boat, it seems that your complexion is much better than last time, so don't just take it easy. Read a book in the room, walk around more. I brought you a good inkstone, and a white jade paperweight. I bought it for you because it looked pretty good..."

Batu smiled embarrassedly: "Then thank you, big brother. The leather that my brother sent someone this time is not bad. I think the black fox fur suits big brother very well. Baoer said he would make a cloak for you."

The two brothers were chatting lively, Mingxi and Baochai walked in, Xue Pan hurried up to greet Mingxi as soon as he saw Mingxi: "Mom, I miss you so much!"

Mingxi glanced at him: "Do you want me to die? How come you still know to come back? I thought you were going to live in your future old father-in-law's house forever!"

Xue Pan sneered: "Look at what you said. I was very anxious all the way. Mom, I bought a lot of Yangzhou specialties for you Bao'er. Let's go and see what's there."

After speaking, he dragged Batu and walked out. Mingxi and Baochai looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

After Lin Ruhai returned to Beijing, he went straight into the palace without even returning home. Kangxi looked at Lin Ruhai, who was kneeling down with only a handful of bones, and sighed: "Lin Aiqing, get up, I will remember all your achievements these years, Take good care of your body, I can't live without you!"

Lin Ruhai was moved to tears. Not long after he left the palace, Kangxi ordered Lin Ruhai to be the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, allowing him to rest at home for three months before going to the Ministry of Rites to report on his work.

Lin Ruhai invited two nuns to teach Daiyu. When Lin Daiyu returned to the south, she only brought snow geese with her. Lin Ruhai matched her with four big maids and eight young maids.

Five days later, Mingxi invited the most famous matchmaker in the capital to come and propose marriage.Lin Ruhai didn't put on airs either, he asked someone to inquire after he returned to Beijing in the past few days.Since Xue Pan came to the capital, his character has not been picky. When he was in Jinling, he was a bit of a dandy, but he was still young and frivolous.

It should be said that the Xue family is currently the most suitable family for Daiyu, at least there is no need to worry too much about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

After all, Mingxi is a widow, so it's not appropriate to visit her.She invited Prince Yong Fujin Nala as a matchmaker, and prepared a generous gift when proposing marriage...Everything that should be done was done properly according to the rules.

After Daiyu's marriage was settled, Lin Ruhai prepared a gift and took Daiyu to Jia's house to greet Mrs. Shi.

Mrs. Shi saw Daiyu holding her hand and began to cry for Jia Min who died young.Lin Daiyu couldn't help wiping away tears when her grandmother mentioned her dead mother.

Lin Ruhai sighed: "Mother-in-law, take care of your health. If Min'er is alive in heaven, seeing you so sad, I'm afraid it will be uneasy."

Mrs. Shi's face froze, and she cried a few more times, wiped her tears and took Daiyu's hand: "Since you have returned to Beijing, why don't you send Yu'er here immediately? There is even a master in your house No, how can you take good care of Yuer?"

Lin Ruhai said in a deep voice: "It is because there is no one in charge in the mansion that Yu'er has to learn to manage the government affairs."

Mother Jia was displeased when she heard this: "She is a child of a family, how can she learn to manage government affairs? You are too cruel as a father, aren't you?"

Lin Ruhai glanced at Mother Jia: "She's already engaged to a big girl, so you can't get too used to her. She doesn't study now, and after two years she's out of the family, and when she arrives at the Hou's Mansion, why should her mother-in-law re-teach her?" She can't learn how to be a housekeeper? Doesn't that make people laugh that my Lin family doesn't have a tutor? "

Mother Jia turned pale with shock: "Is engaged? When did Yu'er get engaged? Why don't I know about my grandmother? Which marquis's mansion!"

Lin Ruhai looked indifferent: "This important marriage has always been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Although Min'er is gone, but with my father, Yu'er will not be wronged. Yu'er's decision is An Guo Hou, Prince Yong Fujin personally acted as a matchmaker. The empress dowager praised the matchmaker for being a good matchmaker..."

Mrs. Wang secretly hated Xue Pan for spoiling her good deeds. No wonder he wanted to escort this little bitch back to the south last time. He probably had already hooked up by then.

Mother Jia wanted to say that this marriage was not good, but the matchmaker of Prince Yong, Fu Jinbao, and the Empress Dowager all praised the marriage as a good one, and with all her courage, she dared not say that the marriage was inappropriate.

After being silent for a while, she finally found the reason: "Xue Pan was a well-known playboy in Jinling before, and he thought he beat someone to death by fighting over a pretty maid..."

Lin Daiyu raised her head in a panic, Lin Ruhai shook her head comfortingly, and said to Jia Mu with a smile: "Mother-in-law may have misunderstood, Pan'er used to be a bit of a mess, but the one who killed the man was the evil slave of their house, and he has already put him to death." .

That maid was abducted by a kidnapper. After Pan'er bought her, he sent someone to send her home to reunite with her parents.That servant girl's real name is Zhen Yinglian, she is a descendant of the Zhen family..."

Mother Jia twitched her mouth: "That's good, that's good..."

Lin Ruhai stroked his beard: "Pan'er was indeed a bit of a jerk when he was young, but as the old saying goes, the prodigal son will never change his money when he turns around. Since he came to the capital, he has changed his past and started a new life. He is now a marquis, let alone a servant. I'm a concubine, and I don't even have a girl in the connecting room.

Mrs. Xue said that the new family rules of the Xue family start with Pan'er, and only a man in his forties who has no children can take concubines.The mother-in-law doesn't have to worry that Pan'er will treat Yu'er badly. "

The old lady Shi was so angry that she couldn't speak, Baoyu couldn't do any of these things.Although she said that Baoyu was still a child, how could she not know anything about him and those maids?It's just turning a blind eye.

Can a man take a concubine only when he is forty and childless?If Yu'er and her mother-like heirs are difficult, is it necessary to let Baoyu never succeed?

Lin Ruhai refused Mr. Shi's meal on the pretext that there was still something to do in the mansion, and left early.

When Daiyu came, she said that she wanted to stay for two days, say goodbye to her sisters and sisters, and tidy up her yard.

She came back with two nuns, two big maids, four little maids and the rough envoy?Gifts were prepared for Yingchun and the others. The sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to say when they got together.

When Baoyu heard that Daiyu was back, he ran into her yard in a hurry, but was stopped when he reached the door.

The attacker who was following behind him hurriedly reprimanded the woman guarding the door: "You are blind, this is Second Master Bao, don't move out of the way."

The woman was not timid or afraid: "Not everyone can break into my girl's yard. This second master Bao, men and women have different seats at the age of seven, you don't understand this truth? Nanny Li explained, girl It's already rested, if you have something to do, you can tell our master or this old servant."

Baoyu stomped his feet angrily: "You old slave, I'm not looking for Uncle Lin, I'm looking for Sister Lin, get out of the way, I want to see Sister Lin... Sister Lin..."

Nanny Li came out with a straight face: "Who is making such a loud noise here? This young master, please respect yourself!"

Li Nanny's aura was too strong, Xiren shrank her neck and dared not say a word, even Jia Baoyu was frightened by her severity, Xiren pulled him away, he didn't even resist, just obediently followed her left.

When he was far away, he came to his senses and ran to Jia Mu's yard.He threw himself into Jiamu's arms and writhed, clamoring to see Lin Daiyu.

Mother Jia could only coax her. The two nuns beside Daiyu came from the Empress Dowager's palace, so she didn't dare to show off in front of them.

Daiyu stayed at Jia's house for several days, but Baoyu couldn't meet her.Jia Mu was so troubled by him that she couldn't do anything, so she sent someone to bring Shi Xiangyun over.

Shi Xiangyun loved his older brother all day long and loved his elder brother short, and Baoyu gradually stopped arguing to see Daiyu.

Despite Jia's mother's repeated attempts to stay, Daiyu returned to the Lin family and tried her best to learn how to be a housekeeper from the two nuns.

Time flies, two years have passed in a blink of an eye, Lin Ruhai wants to stay with Daiyu for two more years, and their wedding date is set after Daiyu and Ji.

But Baochai got married early, and Batu's grandmother's health was getting worse day by day. The old lady hoped to see Batu get married and have children before she left.

Mingxi can also be considerate, after all Batu is really old, and the children of people of his age have already run around the yard.

When Batu got married, Celing rushed over from Horqin, and he prepared the dowry.Looking at the younger brother in a happy suit, Celing couldn't help wiping away tears in excitement.

The cute and sensible baby who was held in his arms back then has grown into an adult, and he will be a husband and a father in the future.

After getting married, Batu took Baochai into the palace to greet and thank the Queen Mother, and ran into Yinzhen on the way out of the palace.Batu called out respectfully: "Brother Ninth..."

Yinzhen patted him on the shoulder: "From now on, I will live a good life with you, Fujin, the boy is so lucky..."

Batu blushed and nodded, holding Baochai with the other hand, reluctant to let go.Yinzhen looked at the young couple who were cuddling each other as they walked farther and farther away, and shook her head, after all, it shouldn't be his...

Hey, let's work hard to earn money, how many daughters, which one is not allowed to give a dowry when she gets married?Two princesses are pregnant again, if they give birth to a girl...

Bah, bah, bah, how could he be so unlucky to have daughters all the time?If a son is born here, who is not allowed to prepare a dowry?Anyway, no matter what kind of child you raise, it's a waste of money...

Baochai became pregnant half a year after her marriage, and when Batu's grandmother was dying, she heard the news of Baochai's pregnancy and smiled with relief.

This strong old man gave Baochai all his life's private house.It was really not easy for her to say that she had only been married for a few years before the man died.

After raising her son, it's time to enjoy the blessings. Both her son and daughter-in-law had accidents. In order to prevent her two grandchildren from being bullied, she brought them from far away Horqin to the capital. Life can be considered passable.

Baochai and Batu stayed behind closed doors, obediently keeping their filial piety at home.Xue Pan's wedding date has finally been set here, and Daiyu and Ji's wedding will be held in half a year.

But at this moment, Jia's family was full of joy and joy, Jia Yuanchun was rewarded by Empress Defei as a princess to Prince Yong.

Don't think it's just a small princess, the Jia family feels that the ancestral grave is smoking, and they can't wait to tell it to the public. It looks more exciting than other families having a concubine or Fujin.

Mingxi couldn't figure it out, what was there for them to be happy about?A little princess who is not favored in the backyard of the palace, with Fujin and side Fujin pressing on it, let alone honor her ancestors, she can't even support her family.

As for Wang's sending someone to send a post asking Mingxi to have a drink, Mingxi directly refused.Baochai has a big belly, and she is still worried about watching it every day. How can she have the heart to eat some wine?

Baochai's fetus was raised well, although in the next few months, because of filial piety, she couldn't get any meat.But with Ming Xi, a skillful mother, she didn't suffer any grievances.

All kinds of soups were made with Lingquan water, and the vegetarian dishes were cooked by her hands. They tasted delicious and nutritious, and Batu gained several catties after being soaked.

In the last month, Mingxi didn't dare to let Baochai eat too much, and urged her to walk more in the yard every day.I was afraid that the child would be too big and make Baochai suffer.
