What should I do when I meet my sister-in-law in Red Mansions?

Time passed quickly, just as Baoyu missed Sister Lin and had a hot fight with some Qiguaner, it passed away in a flash.Unexpectedly, on the occasion of Jia Zheng's birthday, there was news of Yuan Chun's appointment of a virtuous concubine. Jia's family celebrated with joy, and the running water table was set up for three to five days, which attracted the attention of everyone in Beijing.

Xue Pan sighed, what should come will still come.It's better to visit Jia's mansion less often in the future!Xue Pan is now well-known in the painting circle. He specializes in the painting of various animals, and adds a little modern style on the traditional basis, which is more realistic and somewhat novel.Even if there are people who can't see him and can't accept it, Xue Pan's paintings are still praised.

Soon, Baochai's shop, which was somewhat similar to his painting style, became popular, and she made a small profit by asking her brother to help her.

Baochai looked at the money on the ledger and smiled, not because she loves money, but because of a sense of accomplishment.Through my own efforts, what I got was really satisfying.

The Jia family acted even more aggressively, which made Chen Jinsheng somewhat worried that Xue Pan was too young to hold his breath.Today, after class, he asked.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jia's house is just a relative's house. It has nothing to do with Xue's family. I have now restrained the men and women in the family, and I will have less contact with them in the future. Besides, there are so many people in Jia's house who are flattering, but there is no shortage of them." The Xue family."

"It's rare for you to see clearly, so I can rest assured. The emperor is afraid that he will do something to these noble families. Alas, there is another storm, just don't shake the foundation of the country!"

"Teacher, don't worry. The students have watched the new emperor's behavior in the past few months. It is very different from the emperor's benevolence and harmony. However, it is a rare Dao Mingjun. There are some ups and downs in your heart, but you don't need to worry about it."

"I'm an old man in the countryside, what's the use of worrying, it's nothing but unfounded worrying!"

"..."

If Xue Pan wanted to say something else, don't interrupt Chen Jinsheng.

"Okay, you can go back. But you have to finish the homework left behind, otherwise I will give you good fruit."

"Yes, the student understands, so I'm going back now. I brought a basket of fresh shrimp this time. If the teacher eats well, I will bring it back next time."

"Okay, during the four seasons of the year, when will you give less. Go back, if I like food and use again, I will ask you for it."

"Teacher, rest early, the disciple is leaving."

Xue Pan always felt that something was wrong today, but he didn't think too much about it, and he will find out in the future.

Chen Jinsheng turned into the inner room, looked at the emperor and the emperor's father and son, and rolled his eyes helplessly. What's the matter with the two most noble people in the world living in their own homes?

"Okay, everyone is gone. What are you guys doing so mysteriously? Just give an order. Could it be that Pan'er can resist the order?"

"Well, I used to think that this Xue Pan was rare, but I didn't expect to be trained by you for a few months, which is even more remarkable. I can see clearly the general situation in the court."

The emperor said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, don't put money on my face. Pan'er was recommended by you. If there is Bole, it is you."

Chen Jinsheng has a stubborn temper, but he doesn't accept the emperor's affection.The emperor looked at the two bickering with a smile on his face, a little envious in his heart.It is really rare for the father to have such a close friend!

"Okay, just tell me what you have? When will you become a mother-in-law!"

Chen Jinsheng said again impatiently. He also knew that the matter might have something to do with Xue Pan, but he couldn't figure it out, so he asked.

"Neng, the emperor wants to build a Mongolian school, and wants Xue Pan to take charge of the matter in your name, what do you think?"

"Meng Xue Guan? Why do you have to have Pan'er?"

Chen Jinsheng stared at his old friend with burning eyes, wanting to see a flower.

"Don't be so nervous, you won't sell your master and apprentice, but you are more suitable. Besides, Pan'er doesn't mean to take the scientific examination, you should find a job for him. With your appeal , isn’t the aristocratic family in Beijing flocking to it?”

"Okay, let me think about it!"

"If you don't want to, then forget it. In short, this matter is just a proposal of the emperor. It is just a coincidence that I propose you."

Seeing that he still had some doubts, the emperor opened his mouth and said.

"Sure, let's open it. I have agreed in advance that if my mentor and apprentice are really in charge of this Mengxue Hall, then the royal family can't get involved, and we have to follow our rules."

"Of course, I still don't know your bad temper."

The emperor laughed and joked, knowing that he agreed, he was naturally happy, so he didn't care about his bad temper.

Chen Jinsheng angrily sent away the emperor and his son who ate it, and took half a box of fresh shrimp from him. If he hadn't hidden it well, the good wine that Pan'er sent in his wine cellar might not be able to keep.

Of course, after he listened to the butler's report, he cursed and swears directly.The emperor moved away his favorite ten bottles of Lihuabai in his private collection!

Forget it, let Pan'er send some more in the future.Thinking of this, he felt a little funny, it was not his own, it was sent by Pan'er!

Speaking of which, Xue Pan is also a filial person. Xue Pan takes care of his fresh fruit and food throughout the year, but he is also caring.

Xue Pan didn't know that he had a lifelong career, and now he was walking around restlessly.This Mrs. Wang Xue didn't know what was going on, but she even lent money to Jia's mansion behind her back.

Even if they are sisters, they are all family members now. Besides, they haven't seen each other for more than ten years, so there is such a strong relationship that made her easily hand over 20 taels of silver to Mrs. Wang, and even The IOU was not issued!If Xue Pan hadn't kept his eyes open, he might still be kept in the dark.

"Pan'er, your aunt has already agreed to the marriage between Baoyu and Baochai. Now there is an empress in the palace. Isn't it safe to find an errand for Baoyu in the future?"

Xue Wang was also a little annoyed, how could it be such a coincidence that his son broke through this matter.She also knew that her son didn't like to associate with the Jia family, but how could it be the same now as before?

Yuan Chun is now a noble concubine!And once it is sealed, it can be seen that the royal favor.Furthermore, she was conferred the title of imperial concubine on the front foot, and the emperor issued a decree to visit her relatives on the back foot. Isn't this the emperor's emphasis on Yuanchun?

"Mom, how many times do you have to ask me to tell you before you listen! I'll tell you the truth today, I'm afraid this Jia's mansion won't last long. If you don't want to implicate Xue's family, you should avoid dealing with your aunt. Baoyu is like that. Dude, how can he be worthy of my sister? Do you know that the girl in his courtyard named Xiren just had a miscarriage? Besides, how can he have a good reputation in Beijing? How could he have a good reputation? Future? Are you going to push your sister into the fire pit?"

Baochai heard Tongxi whispering from her mother's side, and the uncle and his wife had a quarrel, so she hurriedly put down the accounts in her hands, and took Yang Nanny to her mother's yard, but unexpectedly, at the door, she heard This big string of nonsense from my brother.

Baochai dropped the handkerchief in her hand and quietly left the yard.

"Baoyu is still young now? How could Xiren have a miscarriage? Don't talk nonsense!"

Xue Wang obviously didn't believe it, she had always had a good impression of Baoyu, and asked.

"Mom, that's not the point. Okay, the point now is to find a way to get back the 20 taels of silver, and stay away from Jia's mansion in the future!"

For the first time, Xue Pan felt very impatient. He didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune to have such a mother.She didn't even mention the things that Jia's house couldn't grow, and she didn't know if she grasped the point!

"Pan'er, don't scare me, that's your aunt! My own sister, just borrowed it, and I can't ask for it back, how will relatives communicate in the future?"

Xue Wang said embarrassingly to his son.

"I'll go to my uncle about this matter. Don't worry about it. As I said before, I have my own opinion about my sister's marriage. Why do you still promise a good marriage?"

"..."

Mrs. Xue flirted with her son, but she did not expect his son to object to this matter so much.But now that it's done like this, what else can it do?

"Didn't Baochai's Geng Tie be handed over?"

Xue Pan thought of an urgent matter, so he looked anxiously at Wang Xue.

"Of course not. You also know that Baoyu's marriage has to go through the old lady in the mansion. She obviously prefers Miss Lin. I just made a verbal agreement with your aunt..."

Mentioning this, Xue Wang was obviously even more embarrassed.She wanted her son to see how good the marriage with Jia's family was, but now it turned out like this.

Xue Pan walked up and down restlessly, finally there was good news, it was just a verbal agreement, only the Wang sisters knew, it would be easy to renege on debts in the future.It's just that the 20 taels of silver may be in vain now.

Xue Pan has no hope of getting back the 20 taels, and besides, it's not the time to completely tear up his face with the Jia family, so that's the only way to go.

"Mom, by the way, where did you get the 20 taels of silver?"

Xue Pan suddenly remembered that in order to prevent the Jia family from borrowing money, he ordered the accountant in the house that if the wife moved the money, she must find an excuse and delay it until he came back.So where did she get such a large movable amount of 20 taels!

"Uh, this is the money I saved for my private house. I wanted to give it to you in the future when you and Chai'er get married. Now I have lent it to your aunt. When she repays it, it will be Baochai's dowry money."

Xue Wang's smile was a little stiff, afraid of what his son was thinking, Xue Pan could see what his mother meant, and sighed.

"Mom, you are ready to spend this money in vain. If you want to marry your sister, I don't have any objections, as long as you can get it back."

"Pan'er, don't worry, with a family as big as the Duke's Mansion, you can still renege on your debts. You are too careful. Besides, she is my own sister, can you still cheat me?"

"It's good that Mom knows it in her heart. By the way, who did Auntie send to get the money?"

"Of course it's her companion, from Zhou Rui's family."

"Okay, if something like this happens in the future, you can send someone to tell your son first, okay?"

"Okay, okay. Don't worry, if something happens in the future, I will definitely discuss it with you and Baochai."

Xue Pan was already tired, but now he made a fuss again, so he resigned and left.At the door, he picked up a handkerchief.

Looking at the fine stitches and the familiar pattern, she sighed in her heart, and asked the girl to send the square handkerchief to Baochai's yard, and not to mention it since she went to rest...
