Baochai is a happy wife [Red Mansion]
Chapter 99 Xue Baoqin and the Mei Family
The Xue family, Xue Biao and Xue Baoqin didn't live outside, but lived in Xue Patriarch's house.
"The Mei family?" Mrs. Xue didn't have a good impression of the Mei family. Don't think that the Mei family is a scholar's family, but when Mrs. Mei looks at people, it depends on the identity of the other party.If someone's status is lower, Mrs. Mei would still dislike her.
Over the years, Mei Hanlin's family has actually looked for Mrs. Xue.It's just that Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Mei don't get along very well, that is, they have ordinary contacts.
After all, this marriage was booked by the second bedroom, she couldn't just raise eyebrows at her future in-laws just because of her personal preferences, what kind of words would that be?
"Yes." Xue Biao nodded, "Mei's capital, the marriage is in the capital. Father has written a letter to discuss with the Mei family, and it will be in October. It will be less than two months, father and mother It's busy over there, and mother will arrive in a few days."
Master Xue Er sits in Jinling, and many things cannot be separated from him.He thought about letting his wife go to the capital, and then Patriarch Xue and the others would help, and that would be it.
Many families send their daughters to marry, that is, to the gate, at most, to the gate of the city.If a daughter is married to another place, it is likely that her brother or a matchmaker will bring someone to send her there.
Master Xue Er's family cared about Xue Baoqin after all, if there were no elders around, it would be bad after all.Mrs. Xue Er often helped Mr. Xue Er to do things, so she stayed in Jinling for a few more days, and Xue Biao accompanied Xue Baoqin to the capital to see if there was anything else to buy.
They also brought Xue Baoqin's dowry from Jinling, Xue's family is not short of money, so they can buy more dowry for Xue Baoqin at that time.
"That's okay." Mrs. Xue nodded, "I heard that Mei Hanlin's family will also have to transfer out. If they really transfer out, I, as an aunt, won't be able to pay more attention to Baoqin."
But even if Xue Baoqin went out of Beijing with the Mei family, there shouldn't be any major problems.
Now, the Xue family is still useful in front of the emperor, it is the emperor's money bag.Even if the Xue family didn't help the Mei family, the Mei family didn't dare to blame Xue Baoqin. Furthermore, the Mei family didn't have much money, and it was Master Xue who helped Mr. Mei back then.
When Xue Baoqin married, she had a lot of money in her hands, and the Mei family might still be thinking about the dowry money in Xue Baoqin's hands.A person like Mrs. Mei can't guarantee how good she is to her daughter-in-law.
No matter what kind of person you marry, there will be some troubles more or less.
Mrs. Xue believes that Xue Baoqin can handle it well, and she doesn't need to think about it as an aunt.
"You guys rest for two days before going to Baochai's side." Mrs. Xue said with a smile, "She has already given birth, and your cousin is going to get married this month."
Mrs. Xue is in a good mood and her family is doing well, so she has nothing to worry about.
Two days later, Mrs. Xue took Xue Biao and Xue Baoqin to find Xue Baochai. Xue Baochai was thinking about when they would come.
"I don't know when you will come." Xue Baochai said with a smile, "It's just in time."
"Bao Qin's marriage is scheduled for October." Xue Biao said.
Xue Baoqin was a little shy. Although she had never met Mr. Mei, she knew early on that she would marry Mr. Mei. Of course, it was impossible for her to fall in love with someone she had never met. She just hoped that he would be a better person.
"October is fine too." Xue Baochai nodded, "Although it was a bit cold then, it was fine."
There are not many people in the Mei family in the original book. When Xue Baochai went out to attend banquets, he sometimes met Mrs. Mei and girls from the Mei family.Mrs. Mei's temperament is not very good, she just likes those with higher status, and she doesn't like the generals' family very much.
It's just that if you don't like the general's family, it also depends on your status.
For such a person, as long as the daughter-in-law's family is strong, that's fine.If something happened to the daughter-in-law's natal family and it went downhill, then Mrs. Mei would have a different attitude.
"Yeah." Xue Baoqin said, "Where's the little nephew?"
"It's with his father." Xue Baochai replied, "It happens that he has nothing to do recently, so he takes care of the children."
Hehe, what to do without children, those things are obviously not that important.
Anyway, Situ Jin's current status is also a member of the royal family. If she has something to do, she can do it. If she has nothing to do, she can stay at home. That's fine.
The most important thing now is to take good care of the child. The child has inherited memories, and now he is in the world of mortals. Why don't you watch carefully and wait for the child to scare the mortals?Or let the child be sealed?
It is impossible to seal the seal, at most it is to change the people in the yard, get puppets or something.
Of course, Situ Jin can also ask his subordinates in the upper realm to take care of the children.
"..." Xue Baoqin blinked, meaning that the cousin-in-law is taking care of the child?
"Why, can't he take care of children?" Xue Baochai said, "It's not that men can't take care of children, so don't spoil them."
"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Xue said amusedly, "You look like a man outside and take care of children."
Mrs. Xue did not dare to take Xue Baoqin seriously, not every man would do that.In today's world, men are still superior to women, and men dominate outside and women dominate inside. Few men are willing to do such things as raising children, and many of them bring grandchildren.
Even if a man takes care of his son, there may be other reasons, and the other is to teach the child when the child is older.
"I'm going to see my brother-in-law." Xue Biao got up, and he didn't stay here any longer, just in time to see his little nephew.
"Let's go." Xue Baochai nodded, and asked someone to take Xue Biao over.
After Xue Biao left, Xue Baochai, Mrs. Xue and Xue Baoqin continued to chat, and Xue Baoqin still asked some things about the Mei family.
Xue Baoqin didn't think there was anything to be shy about, she still had to learn a thing or two about this kind of thing, so that she would know how to get along with the Mei family in the future.Knowing their characters will also help her gain a firm foothold in the Mei family.
Mrs. Xue talked to Xue Baoqin a little bit more, but Xue Baochai said less.
"Girls from the Mei family may not be so easy to get along with." Xue Baochai said, "It's not a big problem. The girls from the Mei family are also getting married. After the Mei family is transferred, they may not necessarily go out of Beijing. They also want to send their daughter If you marry in the capital, even if you go to another place, it would be better not to be under the same roof."
As for what the Mei family girl will do then, I don't know.
After all, Xue Baochai is not very familiar with the girl from the Mei family, so it is hard to talk about it.It was enough for her to remind Xue Baoqin a few words.
"Mei's family..." Xue Baoqin didn't say much after all, she couldn't possibly order her husband around like Xue Baochai after all, Situ Jin and Xue Baochai's childhood sweethearts had a good relationship, so it was different.
It is difficult for other women to do this, and there is nothing to learn from it.
In the final analysis, it still depends on the man's mind. It is impossible for Xue Baoqin to run to see her future husband, and if she doesn't like it, it is impossible to change her at this time.
Blind marriages, dumb marriages, parents' order and matchmaker's words, most of them are like this.
"I hope it's okay." That's all Xue Baoqin could say.
Rongguo Mansion, because a new girl came to the mansion, Jia Baoyu wanted to take a look.It's just that Wang Xifeng knew Jia Baoyu's virtue long ago. When Jia Baoyu came, he didn't see Xing Xiuyan, but he saw Wang Xifeng.
"Isn't this our Second Master Bao?" Wang Xifeng said with a smile, "Where's your sister Xiangyun? Could it be that you played hide-and-seek and came here?"
Wang Xifeng didn't know whether to call Jia Baoyu lustful or hospitable.Jia Baoyu never pays attention to the defense of men and women. The men's reputation is not damaged much, but the women's reputation is much damaged.
"I heard that a cousin girl came to the mansion, come and have a look." Jia Baoyu explained.
"You are a big man, and you come to see the cousin girl alone, who is the harm?" Wang Xifeng sneered, "If you really want to come, it will be your sister Xiangyun."
Wang Xifeng was not polite to Jia Baoyu, and directly said something wrong with Jia Baoyu.
"We are all relatives." Jia Baoyu likes to say this sentence very much, they are all relatives, why do they pay so much attention.They are still in the mansion, not outside.
"Neither are relatives." Wang Xifeng said coldly, "Second Master Bao, if you could care more about your own mother, that would be great."
Wang Xifeng felt that her aunt, Mrs. Wang, was at fault, but Jia Baoyu didn't care too much, and she didn't go there a few times, which was really chilling.
Especially a few days ago, something happened at the family temple, and the person in charge actually used some nuns as brothel girls.A good family temple was messed up, but fortunately nothing happened to Mrs. Wang.
This kind of thing was suppressed, and I didn't dare to let the outside know.But if Jia Baoyu really cared about his mother and asked Jia Lian a few more questions, he would naturally know the situation there.
But Jia Baoyu didn't ask, and he didn't say why his mother didn't come when he got married.Or do you think Mrs. Wang is really a monk now that she is eating vegetarian food and reciting Buddha's name?
A son like Jia Baoyu is really chilling. Wang Xifeng felt that Mrs. Wang should not have been so kind to Jia Baoyu back then.What's the use of being good to Jia Baoyu, Jia Baoyu doesn't remember at all.
"I..." Jia Baoyu was silent. When it came to his own mother, he couldn't say much.
He really has no past, and now that he is old, it is hard to say that his mother made a mistake, so he should stay in the family temple.If he said that, these people would definitely call him unfilial, even Mrs. Jia would not let Jia Baoyu say more.
Mrs. Jia was worried that Jia Baoyu's reputation would be ruined, so she didn't let Jia Baoyu say more.After all, Jia Baoyu didn't visit Mrs. Wang much, rarely went there, and didn't send anything there.
As for Mrs. Jia, she was thinking that Mrs. Wang would release usury money to take out the Rongguo Mansion completely, so it would be impossible for her to give Mrs. Wang anything.
In this way, Mrs. Wang's life will be even worse.But Jia Baoyu didn't do anything, didn't go to see more, once or twice a year, and now he went less often, and said that Mrs. Wang was eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha, and she didn't want to see people anymore.
Hehe, how could it be that Wang Xifeng didn't know, that's what Mrs. Jia said.
"If it's okay, go back." Wang Xifeng waved her hand, "My cousin has already engaged in a marriage, not those little maids around you, Xiren and the like."
Wang Xifeng deliberately talked about Xiren. Xiren was pregnant with Jia Baoyu's child at the beginning. After Xiren had a miscarriage and was kicked out of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Baoyu had nothing to do with her. "She should be in good health."
"..." Jia Baoyu didn't say anything, he really hadn't thought of Xiren for a long time.If Xiren's health is better, maybe he should go and have a look, and people can't say that he is ungrateful.
After Jia Baoyu left, Wang Xifeng went to find Xing Xiuyan, but she couldn't let her cousin get closer to Jia Baoyu, so as not to ruin her reputation.
"The Mei family?" Mrs. Xue didn't have a good impression of the Mei family. Don't think that the Mei family is a scholar's family, but when Mrs. Mei looks at people, it depends on the identity of the other party.If someone's status is lower, Mrs. Mei would still dislike her.
