"Mother, you are back. How is it? What did the other end say?"

In Xue's new house, Baochai had been waiting in the main courtyard for a long time. When she heard the noise from outside, she rushed out to meet her.After seeing Mrs. Xue's family, Baochai couldn't wait to ask.

No, Mrs. Xue's family just sighed lightly and shook her head slightly towards her.At that moment, the smile on Baochai's face fell silent, leaving only a little embarrassment, and she reached out to help Mrs. Xue's family into the room together.

After entering the room, Baochai regained his composure a little, looked at Mrs. Xue's complexion again, and said with a forced smile, "Mother, this marriage is all about your love and my wish, even if it is discussed It's no big deal if they don't fit together, mothers must not take it to heart, maybe it's because they have never seen tadpoles before."

"Ah." Mrs. Xue knew that Baochai was trying to comfort her, but when she thought about what happened in Jia's house, she couldn't help feeling sad.In fact, if Wang Xifeng declined her face to face, he would be more relaxed, but he didn't accept her at all. Although it was said that Xichun was young and not in a hurry, in fact, he just didn't bother to listen to her about candidates.

... Is it because she has absolutely no good candidates, or does she simply not want to have anything to do with the Xue family?But yes, the Xue family used to have the name of an imperial merchant, but now it has become a real merchant family.

"Mother?" Baochai looked at Mrs. Xue's complexion differently. Looking carefully, she didn't look upset or angry. The other side of Jia's house was stimulated, wanting to win face but also thinking about the current situation of his family, his complexion changed again and again, but in the end he endured it forcefully.

It was also at this moment that Mrs. Xue's family finally calmed down, stretched out her hand and patted the back of Baochai's hand comfortingly, and sighed, "Brother Feng did not refuse."

"Didn't you refuse?" Baochai looked over in surprise, and said in surprise and joy, "Is that agreed?" No, if this marriage is completed, Mrs. Xue's family will definitely not have the same expression just now, let alone Sighing again and again, "Mom, what's going on?"

"It's very simple. Brother Feng didn't even listen to what I had to say, so he changed the subject. I never explicitly said that I wanted to marry the fourth girl, and I never had the opportunity to mention that child Tiao'er."

Baochai's complexion changed drastically.

Her thinking is almost the same as Mrs. Xue's, even more sensitive and extreme.That's right, no matter how generous, kind, and general she is, to put it bluntly, she is just a young girl who has just reached her age, and she is indeed outstanding among her peers, but when something really happens, It is also easy to panic, and even go into a dead end.

Once upon a time, she thought that although she came from a merchant family, she was far more noble than those official ladies.Whether it's the girl from the Lin family, the many sisters in the Jia family, or the eldest daughter of the Shi family who is a double lord, although they are all outstanding, they are still not as good as her.It's a pity that such a sense of pride didn't last long. Since the accident in Rongguo Mansion, bad news came one after another. If it was just that, those girls who were not as good as me before seemed to be doing better than me. There were so many mixed feelings in her heart that she couldn't distinguish the taste for a while.

Daiyu was conferred the title of Lord of Jianing County, and married to King Shui Rong of Beijing County.

Yingchun is engaged to the third elder brother of the Xu family, an official family, and will be married only after the filial piety period has passed.

Although Xichun is not engaged yet, it is obvious that there will be no difference in the future.

Even Shi Xiangyun, who had traveled far away with his uncle before, was said to be engaged to Prince Wang and grandson.

What about her?What about her? !

She does have a marriage gift today, but it is a pity that it is Tong Baoyu.If it was put in a few years ago, Baoyu would be pretty good.However, today is different from the past, the Ningrong Second Mansion has completely collapsed, the virtuous concubine in the palace has also died, and Baoyu has nothing except the money that came from Jiamu himself, and even his relatives do not want to see him...

"Mother, does Feng girl dislike our family as a merchant? Mother, tell me, don't you? Don't you!" Involuntarily, Baochai raised her voice and cried out with reluctance.

Mrs. Xue's family was taken aback by her appearance, and hurriedly said: "It's very good, what's the matter? I was a little uncertain about the marriage of Tiao'er, and it's nothing if it's returned now. Why are you bothering?" ?There are many good girls in this world. The fourth girl in Jia's mansion looks pretty good, but compared to those real high-ranking concubine daughters in the capital, they are more than a star and a half behind. It's okay, it's really okay, you girl Stop crying now."

Now that Xue Pan has been sentenced to exile for three thousand miles, the wife of the Xue family has only Yu Baochai as her only sweetheart, so she is reluctant to suffer any grievances in her heart.Seeing that Baochai got angry because of Xue Biao's marriage, she felt pain and regret at the moment.

What hurts is that Baochai is sad and tears, and what regrets is that she shouldn't meddle in such nosy matters. Even though Mrs. Xue's family is very grateful to Xue Biao for what happened before, she can't compare to her own heart and soul.Another thing is that Xue Biao's marriage is important, but there is no need to cherish the spring. It is really not worthwhile to make Baochai sad because of this matter.

"Mother..." Baochai threw herself into Mrs. Xue's arms and cried very sadly.

In fact, she wasn't feeling sad for Xue Biao's marriage, it was for her own sake.Previously, the reputation of the imperial merchant had fallen into disrepair, but now she has become a real merchant, and Baoyu, who was engaged to her, is in such a recent situation. It can be said that she will be like this in her life.

Without the phoenix crown and Xiapei, she couldn't become an imperial wife, and she couldn't even enjoy silk and satin. How could she accept such a life, such a life?

"Don't cry, Bao girl. If you have any grievances, you can talk to your mother. If you speak out the unhappiness in your heart, you will naturally feel better. Bao girl, be good." Mrs. Xue's family vaguely felt that Baochai was not Purely sad for Xue Biao's marriage, but still did not guess Baochai's real heart, just thought that Baochai was too exhausted because of all kinds of troubles these days, so she hurriedly tried to comfort her, but the effect was not obvious .

Fortunately, Baochai's temper was there, and after she lost her composure and cried out the aggrieved emotions accumulated in her heart, she felt a lot more relaxed.After that period of emotion passed, she felt embarrassed and ashamed about it.

Naturally, Mrs. Xue's family would not blame anything, and after confirming that Baochai was fine, she ordered the servant girl to take good care of her, and she herself called someone else to invite Xue Biao to come.

Xue Biao is the same age as Baochai, but a few months younger than Baochai.However, Xue Biao is a man. His father died early and his mother was seriously ill. He has a young younger sister. He is much more mature and stable than his peers, and looks a little older than his actual age. He looks very much like Baochai. fellow brother.

Knowing that Mrs. Xue's family called him, Xue Biao also said that something happened, and hurried over.Only after seeing Mrs. Xue's family was fine, did she heave a sigh of relief, saluted respectfully, and asked, "Why are you calling me, Auntie?"

The wife of the Xue family called Xue Biao to come over to talk to him about marriage issues, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her words temporarily and said: "Tad, thanks to having you these days, otherwise it would be me I really don't know what to do with your sister. I was thinking, Brother Pan doesn't know when he will be able to return to Beijing, and I really can't live without you here. But your mother and sister are far away in Jinling. I'm afraid you can't worry about them, and you can't bear to separate your mother and son, brothers and sisters. I think it's better to go back to Jinling and bring your mother and sister to the capital while the autumn is clear, okay?"

Speaking of which, the Xue family has always stayed in Jinling. If not for Xue's father passed away a few years ago, the wife of the Xue family was worried that the clan would rob the family property, and Xue Pan's murder happened, they would not have given up their ancestral home. Go to the capital.

But now, although Mrs. Xue's family can return to Jinling's ancestral home again, the problem is that Xue Pan was sentenced to exile. If there is hope to return in the future, he must return to the capital first.Even if the matter of Xue Pan is left aside and Baochai is mentioned, because she is married to Baoyu today, it is impossible for her to leave with Mrs. Xue's family. After all, the Jia family settled in the capital more than a hundred years ago.

Since they can't go back, they can only let Xue Biao go to the capital.

Although this kind of thinking is somewhat selfish, Mrs. Xue thinks that this kind of thinking can be achieved in one fell swoop.Regardless of their mother and son, for Xue Biao alone, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

The reason lies in the marriage of Xue Baoqin, Xue Biao's younger sister.

"Auntie, what you said is true. However, if I go back to Jinling to pick up my mother and sister, then I will have to leave Beijing for at least two months. Is it appropriate to leave you and Sister Baochai alone in Beijing during these two months?" Xue Biao said Very euphemistic, but the implication is very clear.That is, he must pick up his mother and sister himself, and he does not want to use the hands of others.

Mrs. Xue's family thought about it for a while, then nodded and said: "It's just two months. You go and come back quickly. When I go back to buy Baochai's dowry, I might as well buy a dowry for your sister by the way."

Both of them are not stupid people, and they already know a lot of things without elaborating.At that moment, Xue Biao nodded in agreement, and only said that he packed his bags immediately when he went back, and left Beijing for Jinling early in the morning.

Jia Fu.

Wang Xifeng chuckled a few times looking at the greeting cards that Feng'er handed over, with a mocking expression on his face: "The greeting cards from sister-in-law Zhu, the third younger sister, the Shi family's... unexpectedly there are Wang Xiluan's, she What are you going to do again? Or are they finally joining forces to deal with our family?"
