A Dream of Red Mansions Unexpected Visitors

Mrs. Wang thought she had a trick, and drove Aunt Zhao and her son out, leaving people speechless.Afterwards, he thought of Baoyu's marriage again, but he secretly rejoiced that he didn't cancel this golden marriage because of Xue's family's decline.Originally, I was just embarrassed to come to the door to cancel the agreement with Aunt Xue when the Xue family was just robbed, for fear of being said to be indifferent, but on the other hand, I was also reluctant to part with the money of the Xue family. They have to rely on their own family, Baochai is a concubine, they are afraid that they dare not say a word.

At this moment, I am afraid that the previous families will not look down on Baoyu. In this way, the Xue family is still a good candidate. Baoyu knows that he does not like reading. There is no one to support him in official career. After getting through, I should also find a good time to discuss with my good sister.So on this day, Mrs. Wang found some time and posted a post to invite Aunt Xue to come.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Aunt Xue came and entered the room, Mrs. Wang found that her face was no longer haggard from the previous days.Mrs. Wang thought that Aunt Xue had found out from Zhou Rui's family that she wanted to bring up the golden and jade marriage again, so she was even more proud. a spare tire.

When Aunt Xue sat down, she was about to talk about the old days when Aunt Xue said, "Sister, we Baochai have already made an agreement with her, so I'm afraid we have to let go of this good marriage." Annoyed, the imperial concubine in Jia's palace has gone, Jia's family is still the mansion of the Duke, and my family has not disliked Xue's family as a commoner now, but their family has reneged on this agreement first.He sneered and said, "My sister doesn't take our Jia family seriously anymore. Such a big matter is settled without even saying a word. On that day, our sisters agreed that Baoyu has jade, Baochai and golden locks. The golden marriage of heaven and jade is that something happened to my sister's family and I became white. I didn't say anything about repentance, and I said something that annoyed my sister. If I don't give my sister an explanation today, my Jia family's face will not be like this. It's all right."

Aunt Xue made preparations early and said with a smile: "Why do I disagree with my sister's words? It's just that we just made a verbal agreement. There is no token or decision. Our Baochai is one year older than Baoyu. She is not too young, her own brother Pan'er had an accident, and now everyone in the family is in charge, if I make a plan for her earlier, should I wait for her brother to come back after the amnesty. I have come to beg and met my sister, that is, someone from Baochai in our family proposes a marriage. I want to come to my sister to make a promise. If the gold and jade are settled, I will naturally refuse. Who knows that my sister is too busy and has no time to see me. I really can't give up this opportunity. After passing this village, there is no such store. Our Xue family is indeed white, but the person who came to ask for marriage was a fifth-rank general manager. After all, Baoyu is the young master of the Duke's mansion. Except for Chaier, how many noble girls can he have? Choice, there are no fragrant grasses anywhere in the world, so I have no choice but to accept this marriage."

Aunt Xue saw that Mrs. Wang's face was still annoyed, so she understood that Mrs. Wang didn't see rabbits and didn't scatter eagles, so she took out a small sandalwood box and said, "Now we don't have much to say. Relatives and friends, although Pan'er's incident was rescued by her uncle, I really understand my sister's friendship. This box is the IOU for the 10 taels that day. Don't worry, my sister will not owe each other from now on. The bento is probably our family's congratulatory gift for Baoyu's marriage."

Only then did Mrs. Wang remember that when she asked Aunt Xue for an IOU, she refused to give it to herself because the case had not yet been settled. Later, King Nan'an was defeated, Tanchun became the princess, and Wang Ziteng and the empress passed away. It's still in the hands of others, so I can't go too far. 10 taels of silver, although I could get it out, but my mother was pregnant that day, and I sent a lot of good things into the palace. Later, the Xue family lost the qualification of the emperor, and in order to send some good medicinal materials and hands, I took a lot of real money. Gold and silver, the ones sent by the Zhen family that I could sell one after another were all sold at a discount of 30 taels, and the rest had official marks, but they could only be used by myself. It's a pity, now except for some high-quality goods, I only have more than one hundred thousand taels in my hand, if I really take it out, I will cut my own flesh.As a result, his face changed, and he said with a smile: "I didn't mean to blame my sister. It's just a pity that such a good girl as Baochai didn't take advantage of my Baoyu. It's my fault. I forgot Baochai like this A good girl naturally has many people asking for marriage. I don’t know who the person is? Will she treat Chaier well in the future? After all, when she enters the door, she must have a mother-in-law on her head. How can there be an aunt like me?"

Aunt Xue has now recognized Mrs. Wang's true face, ignored her harsh words, and smiled to herself: "It's also Chai'er's luck. After Pan'er left, our house felt a little empty, so we not only called Xue Big brother Tad helps with housework, and even Baoqin lives with Baochai. The two sisters get along better and better these days. Only then did we know that after Baoqin retired from Mei Hanlin’s family, she was another There was a family who came to propose marriage, but it was Liu Xianglian, the down-and-out direct branch of the Bagong family. It’s only when you become famous that you officially come to the door. Baoqin is also very ambitious, and she would rather wait for others. Sure enough, God has eyes, after the accident of Prince Nan’an, the lieutenant who tried to turn the tide came back to the capital to report the news. It was Liu Xianglian and his comrade-in-arms named Ning Yuan Yes. The emperor asked them about the situation of the battle, and they answered in an orderly manner. They also learned that both of them were comforted by the king of Nan'an without panic when he was taken into captivity. The two of them were promoted to three ranks in succession as soon as Sacred Heart pleased them. Now Liu Xianglian He is the general manager of the fifth rank, and Ning Yuan is the chief executive of the fifth rank. Liu Xianglian lived up to the agreement and came to our house to propose marriage. It was a fate destined, and Ning Yuan also came with him. I was careless and let him see us at a glance. Chai'er, such a handsome young man fell in love at first sight, and came to propose marriage after a few days. I also inquired carefully. Although there are no parents above and no brothers and relatives below, our Baochai is the head of the house when he enters the house. , the young man has no parents to supervise him and no concubine. In terms of identity, we Baochai can't climb high. At a young age, he is only in his twenties. Not only did we not dislike the situation of our family, but he also said that since there is no one in my family, when Baochai comes in, even I will be taken in as a parent to take care of him, not to mention whether this matter is possible, but this kind of heart makes me feel relieved .”

Mrs. Wang hated and was jealous when she heard this, but she had to give up Baochai just because of the 10 taels of IOU. What's more, she thought that it would be better to marry Baoyu, except for the rumors in the mansion. What kind of agreement was made, even if he said that the Xue family broke the agreement, there was nothing to reason about, and besides, he had no one to rely on now, if something happened that the old lady didn't like, he might have to be locked up for how many days, it would be better to stay still .She also thought that there are quite a few people in the capital who are richer than Xue's family in terms of wealth regardless of their status, and there are also a few who are also only daughters who can inherit ten thousand households. The old Baoyu is just accepting concubines and accepting beauty, and marrying a wife will naturally marry a virtuous one. When he marries in, he can just give Baoyu a few more good-looking concubines, so why bother with Aunt Xue for this.So after putting away the IOU, he talked to Aunt Xue kindly for a while before letting her go back.

After Aunt Xue returned home, she saw Baoqin and Baochai smiling, and said, "Don't worry, Chai'er, your matter is settled, and it's a good thing for us to save money and avoid disaster." I really thank Baoqin for bringing such a good marriage to her persistence.After Baochai recognized Mrs. Wang's true face last time, she only knew about needlework after sending her brother away, and never wondered about her future again, so she was a little worried that she had gone to another extreme.Fortunately, Brother Ningyuan is really good this time, the first time he couldn't beat Baochai and came to the matchmaker himself after rejecting the matchmaker.Fortunately, I don't know what Baoqin came up with. Baochai asked Mr. Ningyuan a few questions. He really wasn't greedy for the wealth of Xue's family. I don't guarantee that I won't be suspicious, but I promise that I will give Chai'er the dignity of being a wife for the rest of my life, so Chai'er should agree.Speaking of the teacher's words, I was relieved after hearing this. If he really said that he would not change his mind in this life, I would not be at ease. Men eat what is in the bowl and look at the pot, and they love color. Her husband respected himself and allowed him to conceive two concubines, Chai'er and Pan'er, so he stopped the other concubines' Bizitang, but after that, he seldom entered his concubines.Being able to promise respect for a lifetime shows that he is a committed person, and he will not talk about things that he can't do at all.How can I not thank Baochai for having such a good husband at his age.

However, Baoqin did not have any hostility towards Baochai when she was in Jia's house, but it was only after the two families talked about it that they realized that after her father's accident, Aunt Xue wanted to help her family, but Wang Ziteng and Jia's family They all came and refused to help, Aunt Xue only relied on these two families, and her family was just a widow and a lonely person with a pair of children, how dare she defy them.At that time, Aunt Xue didn't know Mrs. Wang's true face, and thought that the Jia family and the Wang family did such a wrong thing for their own sake.After talking about it, Aunt Xue decided to divide the family property into two and gave half of it to Xue Biao and Bao Qin. Seeing them, Xue Biao and Bao Qin were sincerely repentant and thought that there were only such people left in the Xue family's direct branch, so why bother to fight in the nest? Well, they also made a settlement.Living together these days is really more harmonious, and the remaining grievances that are hard to dispel can only be healed by time.Baoqin waited for Liu Xianglian to come, and these days she was indeed preparing her dowry. Although Liu Xianglian left with Chen Yun, she had already made an appointment to get married when she came back.She also made an appointment with Ning Yuan on the same day, so these two sisters have endless whispers these days.
