Chapter 275: Baochai: It is true to say that both Wen and Wu are perfect.
In Jia’s mother’s courtyard, watching the couple singing a double act, Jia Heng’s expression was indifferent and he did not reveal anything.
In fact, no matter how hard Jia She and Mrs.
Even if he used it to attack Jia She, he would not use force on this matter because it would not bring him to the stage.
It's totally unnecessary to get to the bottom of it and chase after it, but it will make yourself smelly.
After this incident, Jia She has almost no one to look forward to in the government. After next year, it will be almost possible to close the net.
However, Mrs. Xing has been targeting Sister Feng, and her words are somewhat unpleasant.
Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "Jia Lian has been looking for flowers and willows for more than one day. All told, he is just as lustful as life. Now that the thieves have sneaked into his father's room, how can he be blamed on the people in his room?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Xing raised her eyes and glanced at Jia Heng. She also suffered a lot. She curled her lips and did not dare to say anything back.
Sister Feng listened to the fair words and pursed her lips. For some reason, the pain in her heart seemed to ease a little.
Jia Heng said: "The old lady is in the house. Let me go in and talk to the old lady."
It is difficult for an upright official to stop household affairs.
Regarding this farce, it would be nice to just watch the joke, but since he is the leader of the clan, it is impossible for him to really hold his arms and watch the joke.
Of course, the sense of presence cannot be too strong, otherwise, even if Jia Lian is beaten, will Jia She be grateful to him? Will Sister Feng be grateful to him? Or will the Jia family be grateful to him?
After a period of time, if they reconcile again, then leave him to sit on the wax?
Therefore, the proportion must be grasped well.
Jia She snorted coldly, said nothing, and left with Mrs. Xing looking at Rongqing Hall.
At this moment, Jia Heng turned to look at Sister Feng, who looked in pain. He saw that the beautiful and bright young woman's face in the past was now as pale as paper, and two lines of clear tears flowed silently along her cheeks.
In fact, whether Jia Lian stole his mother or was a greedy child, if there was one person who was "deeply hurt", it was Sister Feng.
"Sister-in-law Feng is not unaware of Lian Er's temperament. As for the gossip, don't take it too seriously." Jia Heng thought for a while and said with relief.
When Sister Feng heard this, her delicate body trembled and she took a deep breath. The tears in Danfeng's eyes almost burst out. She looked at Jia Heng, covered her face with her hands and cried: "What evil have I done?
They treat me like this..."
Ping'er quickly advised from the side.
Jia Heng said: "Although Jia Lian has not done anything worse than a beast, the family has family laws and the clan has clan rules. If Sister-in-law Feng is unhappy, just tell the old lady and she can do whatever she wants."
When Sister Feng heard this, she just cried and said nothing. She was so embarrassed at this moment, what else could she do?
If she keeps holding on to her, won't she be convinced of her mother-in-law's words?
It's all her fault as a "jealous wife"!
Jia Heng looked at Sister Feng, who was "in agony". He was silent for a moment, sighed, turned to look at Aunt Xue and Baochai, and said: "Aunt, cousin, Wen Long has such a problem with his talk and bluffing, you guys
Let’s take good care of it.”
Hearing this, Aunt Xue had a wry smile on her face: "Brother Heng, Pan'er... alas..."
Baochai pulled Aunt Xue's sleeve, looked at the young man opposite, and said softly: "Thank you for your concern, Cousin Heng."
She was just watching, and she saw the young man's handling style, which was upright, free and easy, and he acted with ease.
Even if someone wanted to beat her brother, it would be justified and unquestionable.
Jia Heng nodded, catching the gratitude deep in the girl's eyes, and said softly: "As long as my sister and aunt don't blame me."
In fact, he didn't like Baochai calling him cousin. Jin Yong almost spoiled him by calling him cousin.
As for Baochai thanking him, it was expected. If he hadn't slapped Xue Pan twice just now, both Aunt Xue and Baochai would have been in an extremely embarrassing situation.
As for the Jia family when they first arrived and bumped into each other like this, would they laugh at the Jia family?
Well, this is all the trouble caused by Xue Pan, no one should laugh at anyone.
Aunt Xue also realized the joints at this moment, with a look of gratitude on her face, and said: "Brother Heng, you just taught me the right lesson. Wenlong has no good intentions, so it is good to make him suffer."
Jia Heng's face was indifferent, but he did not continue to answer the question and said: "Let Wenlong go and rest in front. Let's leave this matter alone for now. Don't take it personally, aunt and sister, just follow me in first."
Xue Pan raised his big head at this time, with a look of grievance on his face.
Jia Heng waved his hand and said, "Take him out."
After Xue Pan left, Jia Heng turned to look at the pale Sister Feng, pondered for a moment, and said: "Ping'er, why don't you help Sister Feng back to the room to rest first?"
Sister Feng waved her hand and said with a depressed expression, "I'm going to see my ancestors."
Jia Heng did not insist and took the lead.
While several people were talking, they entered the Rongqing Hall. As soon as they entered the hall, they heard Jia Mu's angry scolding: "The upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked! You bastard, you eat wine every day and marry a little wife, go to
There are so many maids caged in the house, and that bastard Lian'er has taken care of them, so he is like a dog guarding the food, doing such shameless things!"
Jia She was scolded so hard that he lowered his head tightly, but did not dare to answer.
"What do you think Lian'er should do now?" Jia Mu asked.
Jia She said coldly: "I don't have such an evil son!"
Jia Mu smashed her cane and cursed: "I don't have a son like you!"
Jia She: "..."
Mrs. Wang and Li Wan quickly comforted her.
When Jia Mu saw Jia Heng, Aunt Xue, Baochai, Sister Feng, and Ping'er come in, she asked, "Brother Heng, what do you think we should do now?"
Jia Heng looked silent and said, "It depends on what the old lady wants."
Mrs. Xing interjected: "If you ask me, Qiu Tong, a shameless maid, can just be Lian'er's concubine."
When Jia She heard this, he snorted coldly.
Sister Feng had already held back her tears now. After hearing this, she was extremely heartbroken and said expressionlessly: "Just listen to the eldest lady and take her into the room as a concubine."
When Jia Mu heard this, she sighed in her heart, then looked at Jia She coldly and said, "What do you mean?"
Jia She snorted coldly. Although he didn't respond, he didn't deny it either.
Jia Mu sighed and said, "Then let's leave it at that."
With that said, he waved his hand and asked Jia She and Mrs. Xing, who looked ugly, to go back.
For a time, the brief and eerie calm returned to Rongqing Hall.
Jia Mu turned to comfort Sister Feng and said: "Girl Feng, I know you are wronged, but it is common for men to have three wives and three concubines, but Lian'er is too shameless. I will vent your anger on you later."
.”
Sister Feng smiled and said: "What did our ancestors say? It's too late for me to be happy about the addition of an imported child to our family."
Now the elbows are folded and hidden in the sleeves!
Mother Jia sighed secretly and turned to look at Aunt Xue, "Auntie, look at what happened."
Aunt Xue smiled bitterly and said: "It's Wenlong's kid Hu Chen who has caused so much trouble. My kid is careless. Old lady, I have no shame staying here."
Mother Jia quickly said: "Don't say such nonsense. A child's words are neither serious nor serious, and it is a big deal to cause such a commotion? You want to say that the child is not worried, but you just listened.
, Lian'er and the other two, who can make me worry-free? I am a man with old bones buried up to his neck in the soil. Why don't I just relax after such a fuss?"
Li Wan and Mrs. Wang were also persuading.
As for Sister Feng, she was obviously out of shape and did not join in the warm-up atmosphere.
Mother Jia added: "Which of these men were not greedy and secretive when they were young? You can't get angry at this kind of thing."
With that said, he pulled Sister Feng aside and said: "Girl Feng, don't take it to heart. You can't be wronged in vain about Lian'er. You have to ask him to apologize to you tomorrow."
Sister Feng quickly smiled and said: "Old ancestor, don't say goodbye. If you fall in the eyes of others, it will be me who is jealous and can't tolerate others."
Jia Mu sighed and said no more. She turned to Yuanyang and said, "Yuanyang, call Baoyu and the others out and let's have dinner."
Yuanyang responded and left.
The old man Jia Heng was there without saying a word.
When everyone sat down at the same table again and ate together, the happy and joyous scene just now disappeared, and the meal was finished in a slightly dull atmosphere.
Jia Heng stood up and said goodbye first.
Seeing this, Aunt Xue and Baochai had no intention of staying any longer, so they said goodbye and left.
Sister Feng now calmed down a bit and said, "Ancestor, I'll go take care of you."
Jia Mu smiled and said, "Just go."
After Jia Heng, Sister Feng, Ping'er, and Zhou Rui's family led Aunt Xue and Baochai away, Jia's mother in Rongqing Hall sighed heavily.
It was a wonderful double happiness, but the boss was unhappy because of Jia Lian's incident.
…
…
Lixiangyuan
After seeing off Sister Feng and He'er's party, Aunt Xue and Baochai sat in the backyard room and sighed softly.
"My dear girl, why do you think we encountered such an incident?" Aunt Xue smiled bitterly and said, "And your brother, he caused such an incident at a relative's house just after he came to Beijing."
Baochai picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea, then pushed the teacup over. A slight smile appeared on her plump and beautiful face, and she comforted her softly: "Mom, a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise? After this, my brother is also able to eat."
A chasm can lead to wisdom."
Aunt Xue frowned and said, "My dear girl, what do you think happened to me today? How could this prince's son do such a thing?"
Baochai said softly: "In a large family, there are virtuous and foolish people. How can everyone be satisfied? It's enough to have one or two people who can support each other."
Aunt Xue said with emotion: "It's the same reason. Brother Heng... is quite a powerful person. Didn't you ask people to inquire about Brother Heng earlier?"
Baochai nodded slightly and said: "It hasn't been long since I sent the people out, but I still don't have any accurate information yet."
While the mother and daughter were talking, Xue Pan strode in, shook his big head, and said in a loud voice: "What do you want to ask about, sister? But cousin Heng?"
However, Xue Pan, who had been scratched a few times, came in with a playful smile and did not hold any grudge.
After all, he was pushed into the mud and beaten by Liu Xianglian in the original work, and afterwards he was considered worthy of the Liu Xianglian brothers.
Baochai frowned and asked, "Where did my brother come back from?"
"After sitting in the front yard for a while and chatting with a few servants, I finally know the origin of cousin Heng." Xue Pan scratched his head.
"What do you say?" Aunt Xue and Baochai asked in unison.
Xue Pan smiled and said: "Originally a side branch of the Ning Mansion, but later Brother Zhen of the Dong Mansion wanted to snatch his unmarried daughter-in-law, but he broke the news. He said that he had received a memorial for conferring a title, and then led his troops out.
In order to suppress the bandits, I made him a third-class general, and by the way, he also wrote a storybook and became quite famous in Shenjing City."
Although Xue Pan didn't speak clearly clearly in a few words, he also showed the tip of the iceberg.
Aunt Xue looked at Baochai aside and saw a thoughtful look on her daughter's face.
Baochai said softly: "The shopkeepers of our business shop in Beijing would like to know more details. In the afternoon, the general will come to inquire and check the accounts."
Xue Pan: "..."
Aunt Xue nodded and said: "This is a good idea."
In the evening, the winter sun sets in the west, and the slanting rays shine in the small and unique Lixiang Courtyard. Through the carved windows, the shadows of bamboo leaves and hibiscus are projected on the snow-white walls that are not obscured by the scrolls.
After Aunt Xue and Baochai moved into Lixiangyuan, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang sent Yuanyang and Jin Chuan over to ask if there was anything wrong with the Xue family.
They were all rejected by Aunt Xue and Baochai.
In the spare room with simple decoration and few furnishings, after taking a shower and changing clothes, Baochai, who was washed away from the dust of travel, sat behind a long desk with only a few books on it, lighting a candlestick and holding a blue book.
I read the words in the color cover attentively.
Because there was an earth dragon burning in the ground inside the house, it didn't feel cold at all.
The girl in a light red coat and skirt has a curly eyebrows, a plump figure, skin that looks like gelatin, and a focused expression. The green gauze curtain behind her is plain and new, with no bright patterns visible.
Ying'er held the tea in front of the desk and said with a slight smile: "Girl, I've been reading for almost half an hour, I have to rest my eyes."
Hearing this, Baochai raised her head and felt that her neck was a little stiff. She closed the book in her hand. The afterglow of the setting sun was as bright as fire, adding a bit of beauty to her white and shiny face. She chuckled.
Said: "I was immersed in it without realizing it. The writing in this Three Kingdoms dialect book is really good."
Ying'er smiled and joked: "Previously, the girl said that the Cijue Biao was well written, but I don't know which one is better, this Cijue Biao or the Three Kingdoms script?"
Baochai took the tea cup from Ying'er, took a sip, and said softly: "The memorial table and the script are very different. Cousin Heng wrote the memorial table with sincerity and sincerity. It's touching to watch. No wonder."
Being able to win the praise of scholars, as for the script, it is the most important thing to judge of one's mind and magnanimity, and this kind of historical work cannot be achieved without learning from the past and the present and gaining insight into the world."
Aunt Xue and Baochai also learned about Jia Heng's deeds through the narrations of some shopkeepers in the shops in Beijing.
Ying'er smiled and said: "Uncle Heng can not only write storybooks, but also lead troops to fight. Girl, do you think this is the civil and military skills often mentioned in dramas?"
Baochai's bright, clear water-apricot eyes sparkled, and she said softly: "It's true that he has both civil and military skills."
The master and servant were talking, and Baochai smiled and asked, "Where is Xiangling?"
Ying'er smiled and said, "I'll teach her how to tie a knot."
At this time, Xiang Ling seemed to hear a voice from inside. She entered the side room and asked, "Miss, are you calling me?"
Baochai glanced at Xiangling and said softly: "It's nothing, go and do your work."
Xiangling said a dumb "hmm" and turned around.
Ying'er lowered her voice and said: "Girl, my wife just went to my lady's house to ask about the candidates. I don't know what the result will be."
When Baochai heard this, her jade face paused slightly, worry appeared in her bright eyes, and she said softly: "Let's take a look at what happened to the Ministry of Rites first."
She was born with a heat poison hidden in her body, which she needed to be quelled by cold-scented pills. Because she was a merchant, and her brother had just been involved in a life-threatening lawsuit in the southern province... When she was selected to enter the palace, it was probably extremely slim.
At the same time, in Mrs. Wang's courtyard, Aunt Xue came to Mrs. Wang's house with her two maids who were both happy and honored. While the two sisters were chatting, they were also talking about the things to be chosen.
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Sister, where do you think Bao Yatou is?"
Mrs. Wang frowned and said softly: "Sister, we sisters won't hide it from you. I'm afraid it's not that easy to get into the palace. As you know, my eldest girl also spent a lot of effort in the beginning, but now
In the palace, for many years, money has been spent, but there has been no movement. When did this happen?"
At the end of the sentence, Mrs. Wang sighed heavily.
When Aunt Xue heard this, she felt a little worried and asked: "Sister, do you think Bao Yatou should report to the Ministry of Etiquette that she is waiting for selection?"
Mrs. Wang thought for a while, although she was not optimistic about it, she would complain if she did not let her sister try it, so she said: "Don't rush this matter, first go to the Ministry of Rites and submit your name, surname, and place of origin, and see what the Ministry of Rites wants."
.”
In fact, she just thought that Baochai looked good. The old lady said that she was lucky. If they could get closer, she could be matched with her Baoyu.
