Aunt Xue of the Red Chamber is not easy to mess with

"But this is just Auntie's own idea." Wang Xifeng looked at Mrs. Wang wonderingly, and said: "According to Auntie, Bao girl is good-looking, good-natured, and talented. It should be easy for such a woman to be selected. Let’s do it.” It’s up to me whether I choose or not.

Mrs. Wang raised her eyebrows, glanced at Wang Xifeng, and said, "Of course it's very difficult to be selected, but it's very easy if you can't be selected."

After hearing this, Wang Xifeng suddenly stood still. What does this mean?Could it be that she wants to do something?After thinking about it randomly, he shook his head again, and hurriedly chased after her, saying: "Auntie fell in love with Sister Bao? Did you mention it to Auntie? Does Auntie have such an idea?"

"Sister, can she still disagree?" Mrs. Wang raised her eyebrows and said, "Although Baoyatou is nice, she is not suitable for Baoyu. After all, she is just a merchant girl, but I really like Baoyatou's temperament. And she is the niece of my direct relative, so don't worry about this disproportion." She smiled, looked sideways at Wang Xifeng and said, "The Xue family can't even think about marrying into the Rongguo Mansion. Yes, is it possible that my sister can disagree?"

Wang Xifeng twitched the corners of her mouth, and even the corners of her eyes twitched a little. From her point of view, Aunt would probably not agree to marrying Sister Bao to Baoyu. I don’t really want to.” How could it be possible for Sister Bao to marry into Jia’s mansion happily?

"Where is the royal family? In my opinion, your sister Bao is very good, but according to the status of the Xue family, even if Bao girl enters the palace, she is just a job of serving people. Naturally, your aunt is I don't want to." Wang Shi frowned, and looked at Wang Xifeng impatiently.

Wang Xifeng looked at the carriage in the distance, sighed slightly, and didn't speak anymore, secretly thinking about taking the right opportunity to tell her about her aunt's plan, and let her be prepared.

Wang Wan got out of the car with Baochai and Chan'er, and saw Wang Shi and Wang Xifeng standing on the door, walked quickly a few steps, and said with a smile: "Sister, why wait at the door in person, just send someone to say that's all. .”

"It's okay." Wang said with a smile.

Wang Wan didn't talk too much, seeing that Wang Xifeng looked very happy, she looked at her carefully and said, "Young girl Feng looks good, so I'm relieved." Then she pulled Baochai and Qingchan over, and said with a smile: "Come and meet your sister Feng, she played with you back then."

"Auntie, don't say that." Wang Xifeng said with a sneer, "Looking at Sister Bao who has grown into a big girl, it makes me feel much older." She looked at Qingchan and said: " Is this Sister Chan'er? At first I thought that Sister Bao was extraordinarily beautiful, but now I see that she is on par with Sister Bao." He said with a smile to the woman standing behind him: "Ping'er, you Usually you only say that the girls in our house look good, how do you feel when you look at my two younger sisters now?"

"Look at what grandma said, the girls are very good, but they are all different, so Ping'er really can't tell which one is the best." Ping'er joked with a smile.

Wang Wanle couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, pointed at Ping'er and said: "This girl is getting more and more slick, no wonder your grandma dotes on you on weekdays, but you are so good at talking."

"Let's not talk too much, the old lady is still waiting in the room. I heard that my sister is coming today, but I specially asked someone to set up a stage to clean up my sister." Wang said with a smile.

"That really bothered the old lady. They are all relatives of her own family, so there is no need to spend so much money." Wang Wan smiled and waved her hands.

"How much does this cost?" Mrs. Wang stared angrily, then pouted, and said: "Nowadays, this Jia's mansion is all headed by Feng girl. With such a God of Wealth here, are you afraid of spending money?"

Wang Xifeng could only laugh, and said: "Auntie comes here, even if she takes out all the private rooms I secretly hid, she will never say anything."

Wang Wan let out a chuckle, and said, "This is a good relationship, and now our girl Feng can save her money?"

Baochai said joyfully, "Then Chan'er and I will also spend Sister Feng's private house?"

Listening to their jokes, Wang Xifeng was not annoyed, and smiled and said a few words to Chan'er, but she never left anyone in the cold. Wang Wan looked at it, and her heart was particularly ironed. She was already a little worried that Chan'er was left out. , but looking at it now, she seems to be paranoid.

Mother Jia still lives in Rongxi Hall. When Wang Wan and her party came, a little girl in red and green came running in to complain. As soon as she entered the outer hall, she saw several girls coming out of the inner hall. , Judu Jinyi and Luoqun, Mrs. Zhang also came out with a woman, and said with a smile: "My aunt has been away for a few years, but it really made us panic. Come on, go inside, the old lady is waiting inside." .”

"It's my fault. I'll punish myself for three cups and ask my sister to forgive my sister." Wang Wan said with a smile. After entering the inner room, she saw Jia Mu sitting on the couch with silver hair. , with a red face, looking at it is kind and rich.

"Greetings to the ancestors." Saying this, Wang Wan took Baochai Qingchan to salute Jia Mu.

"Get up, get up." Mother Jia said with a smile, and asked a few more words before introducing the sisters. After greeting each other, Wang Wan said with a smile: "The old ancestor is now enjoying a good life. There are granddaughters waiting in front of you, eating, drinking and playing cards is really a fairy day."

"My concubine is not bad either." The old lady said with a smile: "A well-behaved girl like Bao Yatou, doesn't she accompany you every day?" She looked at everyone and laughed: "It's all said that a girl is a mother's caring." Little padded jacket, look at my aunt now, isn't that the case?"

Everyone talked for a while before the old lady opened her mouth and said: "The courtyard where my aunt lives has already been tidied up, let Feng girl take you to tidy up later, after noon, go to the front theater to listen to the opera Auntie just listen to what she likes."

"Then I won't be polite to my ancestors." Wang Wan flattered with a smile: "If the ancestors don't like to hear this, don't be angry with me."

"You don't need to be polite to me." The old lady stared at her eyes pretending to be annoyed, and then said with a smile: "As I get older, I always like to be more lively. Now that I am in Beijing, it is convenient, and I can walk around a lot on weekdays." moving."

"What the ancestor said is true." Wang Wan said with a smile.

Not to mention Wang Wan, but said that Baochai came to Jia's mansion, looked at these sisters, but was also happy in his heart, and said: "It's really kind of you, most of the time in our house, there are only me and Chan'er." The two sisters are playing, how can it be as lively as here."

"It's not easy. I'll just send someone to tell you in the future, and someone will pick you up to play in the garden." Tanchun said with a smile.

"That's right." Xiangyun clapped his hands cheerfully and said, "Brother and sister will be happy when the time comes."

"Pfft, Yun'er still loves his brother one by one." Tan Chunle said, even Daiyu bent her mouth, shook the handle of her fan lightly, and said: "No, you love your brother most like playing with your sisters and sisters .”

Baochai smiled, walked up to Daiyu, and said, "My sister is here too. Earlier, my mother said she would go to the house to visit."

Daiyu smiled, and said softly: "My brother was talking about my aunt a few days ago, now that I know that my aunt and my sister have come to Jia's residence, I'm afraid I will come over to say hello to my aunt in the next afternoon."

"Brother Xuan is coming next afternoon?" Baochai's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, "Mother is right."

Qingchan saw that she was a little outrageous, so she had to change the topic with a smile: "This is Sister Lin? I often heard it mentioned by my aunt before."

"Look, Sister Bao only sees Sister Lin in her eyes, and we are all completely ignored." Tan Chun raised his eyebrows and said.

Qingchan frowned, but Baochai didn't seem to hear it, raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's not true, brother Xuan is my senior brother."

Qingchan pursed her lips and smiled, but she had never met this senior brother, but her father valued this senior brother Xuan very much, and often heard others mention it, so she became a little curious.

After hearing this, Tanchun didn't say much, only Baochai said: "A while ago, I bought some foreign goods with my mother from the West Sea, and some gems and glazes. After I brought them back, I made them into pearl hairpins. They are beautiful. It’s terrible, I brought some for my sisters.” As he spoke, he led someone to open a box, and there were many pearl heads neatly placed, and for a moment, he felt dazzled by this gem.

Tanchun and the others were speechless for a while, they only thought that their family was extremely rich, although they had heard that Xue's family was rich, but when they looked at Aunt Xue on weekdays, they didn't feel that How rich it is, but judging from the things Baochai handed out, the wealth of the Xue family is probably higher than that of the Jia family.

Baochai casually took out a pearl hairpin from the box, wrapped it with silver thread to form a flower branch, with a drop-shaped ruby ​​hanging from below, simple and exquisite, she put it on Daiyu's hairpin with a smile, and said cheerfully: "This Although the hairpin looks simple, it is extremely difficult to make, it was drawn by my mother herself, and when I first got it, I thought it fit Sister Lin very well."

Daiyu raised her head in surprise, and asked in surprise, "Auntie drew it herself?"

"That's right." Baochai said with a smile: "Most of the pictures in the Qizhen Pavilion were drawn by my mother herself." She said with a smile: "Sister Qingchan is also learning to draw from her mother now." Sheng Yue said: "It's a pity, my mother often said that she can't do anything except this piano, chess, calligraphy and poetry, so she often asks us to learn more from my sister."

"Yo, what are you sisters talking about? It's just a coincidence that we came here." Wang Xifeng said with a smile, and walked in from the outside, along with Jia Hu's daughter-in-law, Sun Shi, and Zhu's daughter-in-law, Li Wan.

Tan Chun smiled and said: "It's just a coincidence that the sisters-in-law came here. Sister Bao brought some good things and is sharing them. If you come late, you won't have the role of sister-in-law."

"Hey, this is really a coincidence, sister Bao, don't be partial, but we don't follow."

"Sister Feng, don't worry, if anyone is missing, you will be missing, sister."

"It's a good relationship, and it's not in vain to hug you when I was a child."

These words made Baochai blush, Wang Xifeng sat down, picked out carefully, picked up a plum blossom hairpin, and said to Sun with a smile: "This plum blossom hairpin looks exquisite. It does match."

Mrs. Sun also looks very good, but she is a member of the big family after all, but she is not easy to take Aunt Xue's things, so she seems a little hesitant.

Wang Xifeng didn't have such worries, she just smiled and said: "Sister-in-law just hold it." Then she looked at Baochai and said, "My aunt is still talking to the old lady, so I just ask you to pack your things." It's really too much to worry about, there is a girl and a woman around, so there is no need for my sister to clean it up."

"That's true. With Miss Feng here, Sister Bao just needs to live in peace." Li Wan smiled, and she also picked one, seeing that they all had it, and it matched them all. It took some thought to think about it. Aunt Xue, a widow who can be called Qi Xue's family and can make the business of Xue's family prosperous, has some skills. In comparison, she is not as good. It's the fact that Lan'er has suffered so many grievances, no matter how hard she is, but with Jia's family and her monthly silver, how can she suffer so much just to teach Lan'er.

"Girl, Second Master Bao is back. He is talking to the old lady now. I'm afraid he will be here soon." A little girl came in and said.

Baochai was a little surprised, and heard Xiangyun say happily: "Really? When will Brother Ai come?" He turned his head to look at the crowd and said cheerfully: "Second brother is late, and he must get well soon. Punish him! Do you agree?"
