Practical Life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 113 Who is the Oriole

If the Jia family had joked about Daiyu's bad fate before, then now they are holding Daiyu behind their backs and in the open, and they are full of compliments everywhere they go.

Daiyu was a little uncomfortable, and hid in Yingchun's room. All the girls present were girls of the same age, and they would be so explicit when they spoke. Because of this, Daiyu saw a girl with a face, who was very beautiful and dazzling.Tanchun saw Daiyu's doubts, and said with a smile: "Sister Lin can't bear her, she is the sister of Concubine Xue, Aunt Xue's niece, named Baoqin."

Daiyu was stunned for a moment before she realized that this side concubine Xue was Xue Baochai. She gave birth to a son and was canonized as a side concubine.Xue Baoqin met Daiyu's gaze, stood up gracefully and said with a smile, "Sister Lin." This smile was even more dazzling, forcibly suppressing all the girls around her.Seeing her clear eyes and friendly smile, Daiyu felt a little close to her, and said with a smile, "Sister Xue."

Tanchun took Daiyu with one hand and Baoqin with the other, and said, "Sister Lin doesn't know, my wife has already recognized Baoqin as her goddaughter, and now she lives with her ancestors, but it's a pity that sister Lin can't keep here, otherwise, we will Then we can start a poetry club."

Daiyu said with a smile: "Writing poetry is to write out casually, why bother to set up a poetry club to think about it? However, since you have started a poetry club, you will naturally get a lot of good poems." Tanchun laughed and said: "But No, sister Qin and Yun'er got the most poems about our roasted venison couplet, we can't catch up with them, if sister Lin sees each other, I'll ask someone to bring the manuscript over."

Daiyu smiled and said, "Today is a good day for Second Sister to put out her dowry. The most important thing is to look at Second Sister's dowry. As for the manuscripts of poems, I will ask Third Sister to bring them over when I have free time." Feeling that she was too anxious, seeing Jia Min tell Yingchun a good marriage, she thought about how to curry favor with Jia Min so that Jia Min could also say a good marriage to herself, so today she was holding Daiyu everywhere, but showed no signs of it.

But she couldn't help but not worry about this matter, because she will be married next year, but the marriage has not been settled at all.Although Jia's mother likes her, but Jia's mother has always been a shopkeeper, only caring about her grandchildren's affairs, she has always flattered Mrs. Wang, but Mrs. Wang regards her biological mother as a thorn in her side, and will not bother to plan for her. Yes, and there is Baoyu on top of her, her seniority is orderly, Baoyu may not be married or not, and it is not good for her as a younger sister to get married first.

Tanchun wanted to find Jia Min to make the decision, because she thought that she and Yingchun were both Jia Min's nieces, and they should be treated equally. Since Jia Min told Yingchun about her marriage, she would also make the decision for her, but she forgot that Jia Min was the niece of Jia Min. For the sake of Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, and Jia Min disliked people from the Second Household very much, she would not do such a thankless task at all, at most she would say something in front of Jia's mother to persuade Jia's mother to come forward.

Yingchun's dowry was quite standard, and Jia Min breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, Jia Amnesty was reluctant to part with the money, so he withheld it from Jia's mother and grinded his teeth to beg for the money. He thought it would be fine to buy it from the public office, and let Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng do the rest. , was found out by Jia Min, and it took a long time to say.Jia She doesn't want face, but Jia Min, an aunt and a matchmaker, needs face. Jia She is not afraid of anyone else, even if Jia Min is alone, he is not confused. When he was old, he had to rely on Jia Min in the future, because he was enduring heartache and added a lot of dowry to Yingchun.

After seeing it, Tanchun became even more frustrated. Gongzhong paid 5000 taels of silver, and Jia Mu paid 5000 taels of silver. The rest is for each house to fill in.Jia Amnesty had money, and Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng also had money, so she was naturally very generous, but she herself, whose second room was controlled by Mrs. Wang, would definitely not give out money to supplement her, a concubine.

Daiyu didn't understand this, and she was still a little confused about why Tanchun was so warm to her today, which made her a little overwhelmed, so she told Jia Min on the way back.Jia Min smiled and hugged Daiyu in her arms, Nanny Ding and Xu Hua's family also laughed, Daiyu was even more confused, Jia Min stroked Daiyu's bun and said, "Don't worry about it." It is impossible for a grown-up daughter-in-law to understand the thoughts of a daughter-in-law living in the cracks.

Daiyu didn't pay any attention to these things, and talked about Xue Baoqin with Jia Min. Jia Min also heard Jiamu mention this girl. The reason why Jiamu asked Mrs. Wang to recognize Baoqin as her goddaughter was probably to win over the Xue family. .Jia Min came and asked with interest: "Is that girl really as good as she said?"

Daiyu nodded and said: "You are very outstanding. Most of the girls I have seen in the past are not as good as her." Daiyu is proud and arrogant, and the girl who can make her fancy is naturally good. Jia Min remembered Xue Baoqin's background and said : "That's really a pity." Jia Min heard from Jia's mother that Xue Baoqin was engaged to Mei Hanlin's family. Xue Baoqin didn't have any official career support, but luckily the Xue family still had Xue Baochai as a side concubine, maybe they could see this marriage for the prince's sake.

Daiyu understood that Jia Min was a pity for Xue Baoqin's background, she didn't care much about these things, she only cares about character and doesn't care about family status, after Jia Min knew what she was thinking, he just patted her hand and said: "You , I raised her too naively." Otherwise, she wouldn't make friends as she wished, and never cared about others talking about her behind her back.If Jia Min had worried that Daiyu was not smooth enough before, now, with Mu Zheng around, only Mu Zheng's status is not low, husband and wife are honored, no one will criticize Daiyu for her behavior.

On the contrary, Jia Min expects that Daiyu will always have such a naive and arrogant temperament, which means that after she gets married, she can also be held in the palm of her hand as if she were at home.

Jia Min came back to her senses and said to Daiyu: "If you like her, please invite her to your house." Daiyu was a little hesitant, she also knew the rules of communication between noble girls, she didn't care if people said she made friends with business girls, but But she is afraid that her family's reputation will be damaged because if she does not act rigorously, it will affect the family and Zhangzhu.

Jia Min thought for a while and said: "You can directly ask her to live with our Zhuangzi, call your cousins, and call Tiantian." He readily agreed and said with a smile: "If I go, Zhangzhu will cry again." When mentioning Zhangzhu, Jia Min couldn't help but think of Gu Jing, and a haze flashed in his eyes, and said: "You It's just Zhang Zhu's aunt, who will marry in the future, Zhang Zhu also has her mother."

Daiyu thought of Zhang Zhu and Gu Jing not being close, she hesitated, Jia Min said: "Don't worry about it, just go out and have fun, Zhang Zhu is my own granddaughter, I will not wrong her." It's not nice to tell Gu Jing, but this family has no scruples.Jia Min decided to ask Gu Shoufu's wife to persuade Gu Jing.Thinking of this, Jia Min is even more satisfied with Mu Zheng, because of the difference between closeness and closeness, she doesn't think there is anything wrong with being harsh on Gu Jing, but if it's her daughter's turn, she can't do it.And Daiyu married, no matter what else, as long as there is no mother-in-law, and no mother-in-law's family can point fingers.

Mu Zheng didn't know that his future mother-in-law was becoming more and more satisfied with him. He was preparing for the first battle after the beginning of spring. This time, his opponent was no stranger, but an acquaintance, Wang San.

A few days after the new year, Mu Xuan started to move, maybe he was angry, maybe he was at a disadvantage, Mu Xuan was very impetuous, and frequently contacted Wang Dahai's sons, if it was as before, Mu Xuan would He will be more cautious, after comprehensive consideration, select candidates, and approach them cautiously, instead of casting a wide net like now, the more people, the more complicated the mouth, Lin Yang soon learned the news.

However, Lin Yang didn't let Wang San know so early, he still wanted Wang San to immerse himself in a sweet dream, falling from the clouds to the ground all at once.Lin Yang had to tidy up and finish things for Mu Xuan, and Wang San of the province knew about it.

Many of Wang Dahai's sons had different intentions, and most of them were greedy for Mu Xuan's power. After a while, one person voluntarily surrendered. It was Wang San's younger brother Wang Qi. Lin Yang knew that he couldn't help stealing for a few days. Well, in this situation, it is the same as a man who finds out that his wife and his brother are getting married. It is not difficult to imagine how frustrated Wang San must be.

After Mu Xuan hooked up with Wang Qi, he instructed Wang San to pretend to surrender to Lin Yang, and took the opportunity to ask for property.Wang San readily agreed, thinking that Lin Yang would be as easy to talk to as before, but who knew, Lin Yang just glanced at it and threw it on the ground casually, saying: "People are not enough to swallow like snakes. Tell Wang San that you have too much appetite and be careful to feed yourself to death. "

Wang Sanguo passed Lin Yang's words to Mu Xuan, and after getting advice from Mu Xuan, he sent a message to Lin Yang that he was willing to do things for Lin Yang in order to obtain property.

Lin Yang smiled and said to Mu Zheng: "Your uncle really has two skills, and you can tell what I think about Wang San in a few words." Mu Zheng said: "Then do we need to change our deployment?" Lin Yang Shaking his head, he said, "We'll just continue to be the oriole. We just need to be careful and don't let Wang San be killed by them." Mu Xuan probably guessed that Mu Zheng would ambush Wang San at the end, so he might arrange for Wang Qi to be killed by them. Ambush Mu Zheng.

Lin Yang felt that according to the previous deployment, on the one hand, he had confidence in Mu Zheng and Mu Zheng's team; on the other hand, it was because Lin Yang still had Wang Wu as an insider. It is possible to inquire about Wang Qi's news.

Lin Yang became a little excited, he desperately wanted to know who was the oriole, him or Mu Xuan.
