It's Hard to Be the Concubine of the Red Chamber

Chapter 53

"It turned out to be the kindness of the Holy One, so we can't let it down. No matter how glamorous and decent it is, it can't compare with the Holy Heart. And the family is far more advantageous than other families. I heard Baoqin talk about it earlier. My aunt's family has also entered Beijing now. The Xue family was originally a local snake in the south of the Yangtze River. If you want to buy something in the south of the Yangtze River, it is better to entrust it to the Xue family. Some." Yuan Chun earnestly tried to persuade his mother, "Now the Xue family still has to rely on the family, so naturally they will do their best."

Even from the dream, Yuan Chun only knew that the family visitation hospital seemed to be expensive, but he didn't know many details of it. Now that he heard what his mother said, Yuan Chun couldn't hide his surprise.

Obviously having Xue's family on the other side of Jiangnan, I don't know how much convenience my home can bring, but I just don't use it. I just let the juniors from Ningguo Mansion go to Jiangnan and entrust various tasks to Rongguo Mansion Every side branch.No bricks or tiles have been built in this provincial courtyard, and now it has cost 10,000+.

Instead of this, it is better to bother the Xue family. The Xue family does not dare not do their best and do their best to save time and effort in their own family, and the hatchback is cheap.

Yuan Chun was thinking well, but Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered.

"Your cousin of the Xue family is an excellent one. She has a complete personality and appearance, and people love it just by looking at her. However, her brother is a dumb king, and he is useless. She dare not entrust such a big matter to him. "Xue Pan hid in the capital because he was beaten to death, but he didn't dare to say this in the palace, so Mrs. Wang could only be vague.

Yuan Chun had never cared about Xue Pan. In fact, if the Xue family hadn't moved to Beijing with the whole family, and finally the sister of the Xue family had become Bao's second grandmother, Yuan Chun would not have cared about relatives like the Xue family at all.

Therefore, Yuan Chun expressed doubts about the so-called incompetent statement.

"My aunt's family has only one male cousin. If the cousin can't stand up, is it possible that he will point to the cousin to recruit in the future? It is because the cousin is younger and has not yet grown up. After all, the aunt has been the wife of the house for many years. Li also probably has some skills in manpower, but it is not too difficult to get a line with Xue's family. And the family will never let aunt's work for nothing..." Yuan Chun thought about it carefully. After the matter, he paused for a while, but solemnly gave the promise, "It's nothing else. Since my wife said that this cousin of the Xue family is excellent, I naturally wouldn't doubt it. I thought in my heart that if this other courtyard If the construction is good, I would be willing to call the shots for Cousin Xue to be a matchmaker. It doesn’t matter if you are a general with a lower rank, or a younger one who raises a scholar, you can always find a suitable one, although because of your cousin’s business background and not It's not easy to climb high branches, it's hard to say what the grade is, but it can always make Cousin Xue a phoenix crown and Xiapei."

What Aunt Xue eagerly welcomed was simply to want her daughter to marry into a family of officials and eunuchs. In the end, she almost emptied the entire Xue family for the position of Second Grandma Bao. The Jia family didn't get a good result in the end.Now if I can guarantee that Feng Guanxia, ​​the Xue family's cousin, will become the wife of the official family, the Xue family may not really be obsessed with hanging on the tree of the Jia family.

Although remembering the tragedy of Jia's family in the dream, Yuan Chun did not forget why she had the opportunity to get the opportunity of the prophet's dream - although she could not remember all the lyrics of the Red Chamber in the illusion, she still remembered more or less of.

It was because Fairy Jing Huan was determined to save the Twelve Beauties of Jinling that the ancestors of Jia Jiarong and Ning Gong were able to spend their merits and virtues to entrust Meng with her.

Therefore, Yuanchun is also willing to repay this kindness if he can.

All Xue Baochai thought about all her life was marrying into an official family—and Baoyu was just one of her choices in desperation.

Baoyu's temperament is not suitable for entering the court, so he must marry a noble relative, so that he can be a romantic and talented scholar who does not eat the fireworks of the world.In this way, the other girls in the family—especially the two of Lin Xue—should marry off in a good and prosperous manner.

On Lin Daiyu's side, since she is the granddaughter living in Jia's family and an orphan whose parents died, the Jia family must give her a good marriage no matter what—at least she must look good on the surface. marriage.

Xue Baochai, whom my mother loves, is not born enough, but has a good temper. If she marries someone who is somewhat responsible, it may not be a good ending.

As for the girls of her own Jia family, even leaving aside Fairy Jing Huan, she is also very willing to find a wealthy marriage for them, in order to add a few capable in-laws to the Jia family.

For these things, Yuan Chun thought clearly.

Mrs. Wang had never thought about this before, but now she couldn't help being stunned by what Yuan Chun said.

Fortunately, although Daiyu is close to Baoyu at this moment, it is more of a brother-sister relationship after all, and there is no derivation of affection that must be Qing, which is not too obtrusive.So at the moment Mrs. Wang is very optimistic about Baochai, but to be honest, after all, she has not yet reached the point where she must be Baochai.

"I originally thought that your cousin Xue's family would look like a prosperous husband, and that the fat water would not flow to outsiders' fields. I thought that it would be reasonable to hire her to Baoyu in the future, and I also missed such a tone with your aunt." Yuan Chun After taking a look, Mrs. Wang explained her reasons in a somewhat embarrassing manner, "The old lady valued the girl of the Lin family, but I saw that she was born too weak, and she was always petty. I'm afraid she will control Baoyu in the future. She doesn't know that it is inappropriate to persuade Baoyu to make progress, and she is not as stable and generous as Bao girl."

Not only Mrs. Wang, but also Mrs. Jia is also eligible to enter the palace. It just so happened that Mrs. Jia didn't sleep well the night before and didn't have the energy to get up early to enter the palace this morning, so only Mrs. Wang entered the palace this time.So Mrs. Wang naturally wanted to instill her own thoughts in her daughter while Jia Mu was silent, and Sheng's daughter was deceived by the old lady.

Although he only vaguely saw the two cousins ​​once in the dream, Yuan Chun also had a steelyard in his heart.Thinking about the ending of the scene seen in the dream, Yuan Chun actually agrees with Mrs. Wang's statement this time.

Baoyu has always liked coaxing girls. Although it was only a one-time relationship, Daiyu's talent is not bad, but Yuanchun should not know her temperament.It's just a little knowledge, and seeing how Baoyu, who regards fame and fortune as dung, admires Daiyu so much, he knows that the two people must have similar ideas in many cases.

Although Yuan Chun himself felt that Baoyu should not enter the court and was willing to indulge him, he did not allow others to "lead" Baoyu - Baoyu was originally a high-minded person, if he found another daughter-in-law who was clean-eyed, he would be a daughter-in-law in the future. I can't live anymore.

Although Yuan Chun had never fully understood what Daiyu's body was like, compared to Baochai, Daiyu did look much thinner.And at the end of the day, Daiyu actually died of illness. Regardless of whether there were other reasons, at least it can be seen that her body is not very healthy.

Even if Baoyu thought of Daiyu again, Yuanchun would not allow his younger brother to marry a sick wife in the future.

So now hearing Madam Wang's probing words, Yuan Chun did not hesitate at all, and firmly chose to stand beside her mother: "Although it is a happy event to get married, but in the end, the flesh and blood will not return. Grandma loves cousin Lin, but she should also love Baoyu That's right, that's what I said when my grandmother came."

Nowadays, although there are good talks about getting closer, there is also a saying that the blood will not return. Daiyu's mother was originally a daughter of the Jia family.

It's just that this is not a rule on the surface, but it can't be said on the stage - Mrs. Wang can't say this, but with Yuan Chun's current status, she can say it.

"Uncle Lin was originally a second-rank official position. Although he is gone, he died in office after all. This dignity is also reserved for his cousin. The cousin is also a daughter of the first rank. In the future, she will only marry better than the second and third sisters." The truth is, it can also add a relative to the mansion. There is no need for the wife to say anything when she goes back, just treat the cousin of the Lin family and a few younger sisters together, and ask them to learn from the cousin of the Xue family or Brother Feng to learn how to be a housekeeper. Ability. Speaking of which, even though they are direct brothers and sisters, they are not too close at this age. After all, I was never too close to Brother Lian when I was young." In front of Mrs. Wang, Yuan Chun couldn't bring up Jia Zhu. , for fear of poking at her heartache, but Jia Lian and Yuan Chunben are also direct cousins, and they are also very close blood, so it is okay to use Jia Lian as a comparison this time.

"I heard from Baoqin that since the Lin family's aunt died, my grandmother took the initiative to bring Lin's cousin here. Later, when Uncle Lin passed away, and the house was the only relative of Lin's cousin, it became a permanent resident. Lin My uncle's official position was not low before his death. If her biological parents were the masters, it could be said that it was her parents' fate to marry her into any family. No one could question anything. But now the family can only be regarded as cousin Lin's relatives, but they can only marry her. Cousin Lin married at a higher level, otherwise she would be poked at the back - count, there are a few first- and second-rank families in the whole dynasty, how can such a marriage be so easy to find. Leaving aside these families, After all, wouldn’t it be more respectable to say that one kiss adds another kiss, and I can’t just blame my grandmother for being biased.” Although my heart is towards my mother, I still have some affection for my grandmother, and Yuan Chun is not willing to part with his mother and grandmother. , but also found a reason for Jia Mu's insistence, "But don't worry, ma'am, Baoyu is my direct brother, I always have to ask about his marriage, nothing else, I have to choose a family with both parents. "

When Jia Min was not out of the cabinet, he had a quarrel with Mrs. Wang, so naturally he disliked Daiyu as a result of venting his anger.However, as she got older, Jia Min had already passed away. If she was just a relative of her husband's family, Mrs. Wang would still be more magnanimous—but if she was a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang would naturally be a thousand 1 Thousands of people are not satisfied.

Yuan Chun could understand this, and was willing to follow Mrs. Wang's wishes.

After hearing Yuan Chun's assurance, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but roll her eyes with a smile.

The reason why she valued Baochai was because she looked down on Daiyu even more. Without Daiyu's threat, she would naturally be willing to choose a good in-law for her beloved son from a well-rounded family of officials and eunuchs.

As long as the daughter-in-law doesn't make her son separate from her, that's fine.

And since that crooked Lin Daiyu will not become her daughter-in-law, Baochai's benefits will undoubtedly be discounted in the eyes of Mrs. Wang.

As the saying goes, no one knows the mother better than the son, and the same is true for daughters.Just looking at Madam Wang's expression and attitude, Yuan Chun knew that Madam Wang must be shaken.

After all, compared to the official family, the background of the girl from the merchant family is not so decent.

"Although Xue's family can be regarded as relatives, but after all, the background is lower. The wife has a deep bond with the aunt, so it is enough to find a good marriage for Cousin Xue. This is also for the sake of relatives, so it is not worth talking about. "Yuan Chun smiled, and made a conclusion on this matter, "I only talk about the matter of the other hospital, and I have to trouble my aunt."
