[Red Mansion] Princess Ji
Chapter 12
King Yongkang, a foreign surname king with military exploits.
Daiyu was startled, she lowered her head and said nothing, she seemed to be unable to hear the voices of discussion coming from her ear, she was still thinking about what was on her mind.
When Ji Yuanlan came last time, Xueyan also mentioned Ji Yuanlan's background. She knew that Ji Yuanlan was born in a noble family and had a prominent family, but she didn't expect that he had something to do with King Yongkang.
No wonder there was such a big battle when Ji Yuanlan came to the house.
When she came with Mrs. Jia just now, she glanced in hastily, and the woman sitting in the main seat should be Ji Yuanlan's mother.
"Why are you talking bad about you? You still have my mother in your eyes? If so, you should have packed up your things and returned to the palace. You are embarrassed to stay here, and I am also embarrassed to let you here to make trouble for others." Yongkang The princess looked up at Ji Yuanlan, reprimanded, but smiled.
Concubine Yongkang is the younger sister of the current queen mother. Although the sisters are more than ten years apart, they have a deep affection for each other. Even the marriage with King Yongkang was pointed out by the queen mother.
Hearing this, Ji Yuanlan stepped forward and bowed to salute, "What mother said is true, but Brother Bao's big day will be in a few days. How can I return home at this time, at least I have to wait until I have drunk this glass of wedding wine."
Princess Yongkang glanced at Ji Yuanlan, she was the one who was born, and she knew what she was planning as soon as she rolled her eyes, and she looked at Mrs. Jia.
"It turns out that there is a happy event in the house. Congratulations to the old lady."
The faces of the people in Jia's mansion changed. Ji Yuanlan couldn't hide this matter from what he said.
Mrs. Jia came to her senses first, put down the tea in her hand and nodded: "The little prince is right, my grandson has known the eldest girl of the Xue family since childhood, and she is also an aunt of my mother's family. After the marriage, his father will go to Jiangxi to take up the post, so while he was in Beijing, he settled the marriage and let his father go to the post with peace of mind."
"Mother, I'm not lying to you this time. Brother Bao is sitting outside, and Miss Xue, who has never been married, is also there. It's really a perfect match." Ji Yuanlan found a seat and sat down. He took out his fan and smiled, "A while ago, you regretted that Concubine Xian went early, but the younger sisters of Concubine Xian are as talented as her, and they are sitting outside right now."
He could also think of the trick of stealing the beam and changing the post, but fortunately Jia's mansion is still the Duke's mansion, to do such a thing, if he didn't know Daiyu, it would be fine, and he would just mention it casually with others as a conversation piece.
But now Daiyu is still living in the mansion, and two days ago she almost fell ill and saw the King of Hades, but these people were busy congratulating Jia Baoyu, who was in a daze, and thought of such a sinister trick.After the marriage is completed, what do the servants in Jia's mansion think of Daiyu?I'm afraid it's a laughing stock.
If she wanted to take someone out, she had to let Daiyu see clearly whether the Jia Mansion was something she could rely on.
Zhong Wuyan has nothing to do, Xia Yingchun has nothing to do.In vain of Lin Ruhai's trust in entrusting his daughter to Jia's family, Jia's family really has one heart.
This marriage not only needs to be done, but also has to be done in a big way, so that everyone in the capital knows that Jia's family and Xue's family are married, and that Jia Baoyu married Xue Baochai.
While Mrs. Jia was talking to Princess Yongkang, Ji Yuanlan looked out, and his eyes fell on Daiyu.
The wound on the body seems to be healed, but the flesh underneath is still rotten, and the rotten flesh has to be dug out to be thorough, otherwise it will hurt if touched.
"Let you talk nonsense!"
Concubine Yongkang saw the changes in the faces of the Jia family when they heard Concubine Xian, and she scolded, "Concubine Xian is a virtuous and virtuous concubine in the palace, and she is well-read poetry. It’s all because of the old lady’s good teaching.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Jia sighed softly, wiped away her tears, and asked Yuanyang to invite some girls to come in to see the guests.
The curtain was lifted, and Yuanyang walked to the side hall with two maidservants, glanced at everyone, nodded and said: "The old lady let the two second masters, grandma and girl in."
Everyone stood up and looked at each other, only Daiyu walked behind with her head down, silent and preoccupied.
Why did you suddenly let them in?
After everyone entered the main hall, Mrs. Jia and Princess Yongkang said their names one by one and saluted before allowing everyone to sit down.
"Since you're here, why don't you go back to the palace after dinner?"
"There is an old lady who wants to keep me, but I can't refuse." Princess Yongkang laughed and nodded, "I think Baoyu and Miss Xue are a perfect match. After the old lady's date is fixed, the wedding invitation must be sent to the palace. Prepare a gift."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that except for Ji Yuanlan, Princess Yongkang, and Mrs. Jia, the expressions on the faces of everyone present had changed, and they almost subconsciously looked at Daiyu.
Jia Baoyu stood up and looked at Mrs. Wang, "Mother, that's not what you told me, I——! Grandma, I don't know what's going on with Sister Bao——"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Jia scolded hurriedly: "Miss Bao is thin-skinned, are you thin-skinned too? Parents, matchmakers, and the princess just said that your temperament is similar to that of the young prince when it comes to marriage, so let the young prince stay in the house for a long time." Two days, after eating your wedding wine, go back to the palace."
Jia Baoyu was stunned, quickly looked at Daiyu, and called out in a low voice, "Sister Lin?"
Hearing these three words, Daiyu twisted her silk handkerchief tightly with her fingers, lowered her head and said nothing.It seems that she was not the last to know, this fool was the last to know.
Forget it, let's take it as a lesson, lest he come to Xiaoxiang Hall to make trouble in the future.
Seeing the look on everyone's face, Jia Baoyu felt unbearable headache, wronged and angry, so angry that he sat on the stool, making a lot of noise.
"Mother's date is set, February [-]th, there are only a few more days left, and the invitations will be sent to each house in a few days, but I have prepared a big gift for Brother Bao alone." Ji Yuanlan saw that everyone was silent , said in a voice: "Madam, my mother has heard about the scenery of the Grand View Garden, and today is after the snow, why not visit the Grand View Garden together, so as to pass the time before dinner."
"It's just right, the snow scene is just right, and there are red plums against the backdrop. My granddaughters are not as clever as the county master, but they can also write a few poems." Ji Yuanlan eased the atmosphere with one sentence, and Mrs. Jia followed the words Next say.
"Old lady, you think highly of my younger sister. My younger sister only knows how to ride horses and shoot arrows, and go to the house to uncover roof tiles. She doesn't know anything else." Seeing Mrs. Jia get up, Ji Yuanlan also got up and walked to the side of Princess Yongkang, motioning the servant girl to get out of the way. Just hold him up.
Princess Yongkang glanced at Ji Yuanlan, saw Mrs. Jia greeting her, and nodded with a smile.
"What kind of medicine do you sell in your gourd?"
"Mother is smart, but still can't understand? It's just that the walls of Jia's courtyard are too high, so it's hard to spread such a happy event. I have to rely on my mother to speak up for the golden and jade marriage."
"Okay, don't be courteous in front of me, your eyeballs are almost glued to people, and others can't see it, how can I not see it? Go and let Mingyu come over."
Ji Yuanlan laughed, let go and walked away, and Mingyu came over.
Concubine Yongkang and Mrs. Jia were talking and walking towards the Grand View Garden, followed by Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, Mrs. Xing, and Mrs. Wang. Ji Yuanlan retreated to Jia Baoyu's side.
"Fortunately, I have dug my heart and soul for you. Why are you talking nonsense in front of the old lady? Sister Lin will definitely not talk to me now! This matter-worse, how could my sister Bao and I be husband and wife? Sister Lin from Suzhou."
"There are lanterns and festoons in the house, are they fake? You can't see it these days? You pretend to be crazy and you count yourself in. In the past, you always said that you only had Miss Lin in your heart, but I see the attacker in your house." Aren't people also yours? Besides, Miss Lin was almost the same as your big sister the day before yesterday, did you know that?"
"I—" Jia Baoyu was at a loss for words, unable to answer.
Glaring at Ji Yuanlan, his heart is sour.
"Sister Lin and I have been inseparable since we were young. If I want to marry, I will also marry her. This marriage, let it go!"
"Are you going to piss off the old lady and madam?" Ji Yuanlan shook his head, "Miss Xue is a bit sophisticated, but she is also smart. Do you still feel wronged with you?"
Hearing this, Jia Baoyu thought of Baochai's smooth muscles and bones, and his erudition and talents, but the two were really different. When he thought of official career and economy, he had a headache.
If two people get married, wouldn't they be able to hear these words every day, he would listen to them at school and still listen to them at home, life would be difficult.
"Don't come to me in the future, you friend, I won't make friends."
After Jia Baoyu finished speaking, he first went to Daiyu to explain, but he didn't know that there was Tanchun and Li Wan beside Daiyu, who blocked him tightly and didn't give him a chance to say a few more words.
Just as she was about to reach out to pull Daiyu, Wang Xifeng pulled her aside.
"Second sister-in-law, what are you doing?" While talking to Wang Xifeng, he looked towards Daiyu, feeling anxious, he had to explain clearly that he didn't want a good relationship, but an alliance of wood and stone.
Wang Xifeng was secretly annoyed, the pot of porridge was overcooked, "Your brother wants to talk to you, will you go?"
Standing behind Ji Yuanlan caught a glimpse of Jia Baoyu's anxious look, and shook his head.
Jia Baoyu has already won the favor of the only Jia family. No matter what happens to Jia's house, Jia Baoyu deserves to suffer. Wealth and poverty are the destiny of Jia's house, so why drag down Daiyu who has no parents.
Daiyu is from the Lin family in Suzhou, not from the Jia family.
"Little prince kills two birds with one stone, really amazing."
Ji Yuanlan glanced at Baochai who walked to her side at some time, and said with a smile without changing his face: "Ms. Xue is not amazing, she can even see this."
"I'm afraid that Shao'er has seen through your thoughts. With her temperament, she wants to annoy you."
"Miss Xue, now that the marriage has been decided, you might as well pay more attention to it. Baoyu has no interest in official career and economics, but with your intelligence and the foundation of the Jia family, it is not difficult to get things done. You might as well put your mind on other things. Put it on Jia's house." Ji Yuanlan looked at Baochai whose complexion changed slightly, cupped his hands and said, "I have to say congratulations first, congratulations to Second Grandma Bao."
The latter sentence was so soft that only the two of them could hear it. Baochai looked at Ji Yuanlan's leaving back, thoughtful, and didn't come back to follow the crowd until Ying'er came calling.
Daiyu was startled, she lowered her head and said nothing, she seemed to be unable to hear the voices of discussion coming from her ear, she was still thinking about what was on her mind.
