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

Xue Pan looked at the news gathered in his hands, and asked people to carefully adjust some uncertain issues. After nearly half a month of work, he finally found out the situation of Ma Yu's concubine-Ma Wu and The situation in his family.

Xue Pan even listed a simple swot matrix, analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of various aspects, and then made up his mind, and now he is waiting for news from Xue Wang.

Of course, Xue Wangshi is also very satisfied with this Ma Wu's situation, especially the fact that he has no roommate makes Xue Wangshi satisfied.

In the end, the mother and son summarized the news they had received, and they both felt satisfied, so they agreed.Xue Pan notified his brother, saying that he wanted to see his younger brother.

Ma Yu knew that this matter might come true, and was overjoyed at the moment, and brought his younger brother to the restaurant that Xue Pan had decided on.Looking at such a shy young man, Xue Pan actually felt a little uncomfortable. Can such a person really make his sister happy?

After drinking and eating, Xue Pan was somewhat satisfied with him. Although he looked shy, he was not cowardly.

Ma Yu watched his always gentle cousin pick all kinds of things, and while he was amused, he also sweated for his younger brother, fearing that Xue Pan might be dissatisfied.

In the end, Xue Pan and Ma Wu stayed in the room, staring at him seriously, and when Ma Wu couldn't bear his eyes, he spoke,

"Can you guarantee that my younger sister will be the only one in the future? Don't talk about taking concubines, even people in the house are not allowed to have one! Of course, I promise, my younger sister is worthy of you. She is by no means inferior to you in terms of appearance, knowledge and character." !"

"Yes, Brother Xue, don't worry, I promise to treat her well."

Ma Wu babbled and babbled for a long time before he managed to utter such a sentence.

Within a few days, Ma's family invited the official coal, and went to Xue's house to exchange their Geng posts, which was considered successful.Since the two of them are not young, they set a wedding date in October in the second half of the year.

The Xue family started to prepare the dowry for Baochai in a hurry. Fortunately, the dowry of the daughters of the aristocratic family was prepared from an early age. Even if it is a little out of fashion, it is very cheap to modify it or buy it again. of.

Xue Pan bought all kinds of good things for his sister as if he didn't need money and land. In the end, the dowry list was a thick stack, which made Xue Wang feel a little distressed, and Xue Pan still felt a little insufficient!

Baochai was embroidering her wedding dress in the inner courtyard, and was constantly being asked by the wives sent by her brother for their opinions on various things. Even her fiancé would give her interesting things to relieve her boredom from time to time, which made her panic. With a trace of anticipation.

"Sister Bao, Aunt Xue and Big Brother Xue love you very much. I see, these things are all very good."

Since Daiyu moved back to Beijing, she has been passing Baochai a handkerchief and flowers from time to time, and she gets on well.

After hearing that Baochai was engaged, Daiyu was going to come to congratulate her. She was introduced by Baochai and saw her dowry, so she expressed such emotion,

"It's all prepared by my brother, and my mother can't stop it. According to me, it's too much."

Although Baochai tried her best to suppress it, Daiyu saw it clearly, the corners of her mouth were raised extremely high.

"Okay, I know you have a good brother, but you don't have to show it off to me, it's so annoying!"

"It's not the same for you to have a good father, and I envy you too. If my late father was still there, I don't know how gratifying it is to see my brother making progress like this now."

The two sisters joked with each other again, and Daiyu also knew that Baochai was short of time, and she would not sit down soon, so she took the girl and mother to leave.

Now she has another girl by her side, the previous Zijuan was sent back to Jia's mansion, and there was only one snow goose left. Lin Ruhai also felt that it was useless and wanted to change her. If Daiyu hadn't begged for mercy and let her stay Come on, I don't know where I'm going to go now.It made Xueyan feel more grateful and loyal to Daiyu.

Although Lin Ruhai was also a little worried about his daughter's future, but as a big man, although he could get in touch with young men, his eyes were dark about what was going on in the inner house.

Of course, he also has close friends in Beijing, and he wants to ask for his inner house, but he feels that his precious daughter is still young, and he has various reluctance, so he has no choice but to continue in this stalemate.

As for the neighbor Xue Pan, he is a good boy, humble and polite, but Lin Ruhai never chose him as a son-in-law candidate, and the two seem to have forgotten their friendship.It is also because Xue Pan is able to pretend, and has always portrayed a gentle and gentle image of a man.

After receiving the dowry gift from Ma's family, Xue Pan personally brought some of Baochai's dowry to Ma Wu's new house. , it's totally fine.

Ma Wu accompanied his elder brother to inspect the layout of the mansion. He would stay in the old mansion when he got married, and he would bring his belongings here to live with his wife and children after the new couple finished the tea ceremony and worshiped the ancestral hall.

And this house is also counted in his share of the family property, because it is about the same distance from the main house and Xue's house, and it is very convenient in the inner city, so he makes this his small home.

He is also a little stressed about the future wife's so much dowry, but he is more happy. Although the Xue family has not made a statement now, but in the future, Blue and White Academy will obviously be on the rise. After the accumulation is over, then Xue Pan, the future Blue and White It is conceivable how much help the head of the academy can bring to him.

Although he is a bastard, the Ma family's education can be regarded as dedicated. In the future, he will not be able to inherit the Ma family's connections, so he has to develop it himself.

August [-]th was an auspicious day, so Jia's house naturally received the post. Regarding his sister's repentance, and Xue Pan put her on the sidelines, Mrs. Wang didn't have the slightest affection for Xue's family, let alone her At that time, she was forced to send an IOU to Xue's family. Such a shameful thing is one of the few embarrassing things she has done since she became the mother of a noble concubine.

So this time when Baochai got married, Mrs. Wang just asked Jin Chuan'er to pack up a small gift and handed it to Wang Xifeng, asking her to bring the three sisters of the Jia family to Xue's house to congratulate her.

Xue Wang, who originally wanted to ask her sister for support and help, listened to Wang Xifeng's explanation, her face became stiff and stiff, but today is a good day for her daughter, and she really can't turn her face.Otherwise, she really wanted to throw away the small gift from her sister.

Wang Xifeng knew the inside story, she was very embarrassed and could only laugh dryly.But soon, Qi Lin's mother brought her daughter-in-law to the door again, and Xue Wang was busy entertaining guests, and it was over.

Of course, another reason Mrs. Wang didn't come was because she was worried that the people who came to Xue's house were merchants, afraid of lowering her style.

As a result, Wang Xifeng identified them carefully, but found that there were many wives of important court officials.Sister Sanchun came to Baochai's boudoir, and seeing the dazzling array of dowry and bride price, envy flashed in her heart, Aunt Xue really loved Sister Bao.Especially Yingchun, she is seventeen this year, and no one has mentioned her marriage yet.Thinking of this, Yingchun could only bow her head in silence, even her smile was a bit forced.Because of Xue Pan's Blue Flower Academy, this year's children's exam, the thirty students who took the exam from Blue Flower Academy all passed the boy's exam, and only passed the last exam this August.As a parent, he was naturally grateful. Hearing that the Xue family married daughters, many of them came uninvited.

Of course, Xue Pan's three senior brothers also made great efforts, not to mention Chen Jinsheng who loved him the most. The banner of "beautiful children and beautiful women" added a lot to the wedding banquet.

Baochai's various worries were relieved a lot by his brother's nagging explanations, yes, with his own ability, can he still live a bad life?Besides, I have my brother backing me up, so what are I afraid of?

Although the Ma's family was a concubine's wedding, the preparations were quite sufficient, which made the Xue family's senders quite satisfied.

Baochai left the house at an auspicious time, Xue Pan stood at the door watching the sedan chair leave, feeling quite disappointed, and began to greet the guests amidst the jokes of the people around him.

There are a lot of people here today, and there are also a lot of people who can't be neglected. It's really not good that his master is not here.

However, everyone also fed him sincerely. Xue Pan, who was already worried, got drunk, forced to send away the last batch of guests, and after letting his teacher settle down, he dragged his exhausted body back to his home. yard.

Along the way, I saw red paper, confetti scattered everywhere, and trampled everywhere. For some reason, there was a sense of depression.

He sighed and commanded,

"Give me the pot for my daughter Hong, and prepare a few dishes of side dishes, and you all go to rest."

"Yes, Grandpa"

The girl next to her bowed her head in obedience and prepared to go.After Xue Pan washed up under the maid's service, looking at the moonlight in the sky, he drank up the jar of Nurhong and died of drunkenness.

However, he felt much more relaxed. On August [-]th, his younger sister got married, and his mission was completed, and he had worked hard in the past few years. But it is completely different. My own hard work and commitment are actually considered achievements, right?

Listening to his uncle muttering to himself, the housekeeper and Lai Shun were quite distressed. Only those who accompanied Xue Pan knew how hard he worked.

Helped Xue Pan to the bed, watched him fall asleep peacefully, and gave instructions to last night before everyone backed out.

Three days later, seeing Baochai with a rosy complexion and a hint of shame, Xue Pan felt at ease, sent her to the back house to meet his mother, and went to the flower hall with Ma Wu himself.Naturally, he found a few senior brothers to accompany him.Everyone is acquaintances, and they are not polite, and they got Ma Wu drunk.

Although Baochai had only been married for three days, she felt that it had been a lifetime. The moment she saw Mrs. Xue, her eye circles turned red. The mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried for a while. I wiped away my tears.

Xue Wang carefully asked about the affairs of the Ma Mansion since they got married, and after hearing that her mother-in-law is very kind and that although the sister-in-law has some minor conflicts, they are not difficult to get along with, she is relieved.

There are naturally more things between women, than the natal family, the husband, and the children.Their natal family is strong, so they naturally have to be a little bit jealous. Moreover, Baochai's dowry is generous, so they are naturally confident.

Furthermore, Baochai has made it clear that he is an ally and has been separated, so it is impossible to grab the family property with him, isn't it!Everyone naturally wants to get along with each other.

Only Ma Wu's own younger sister, the concubine of Ma's family, is slightly hostile to Baochai. She is still young, but Baochai doesn't take it seriously. Don't worry about it.

Of course, Baochai didn't tell Mrs. Xue about this matter. She can handle it herself, so there is no need to say it, which made her mother worry.
