Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord
Chapter 35
After listening to Xue Pan's words, Bo Yang said honestly, "I don't know how to speak, but the eldest girl of Rongguo Mansion dares to make a big show like this, whether she is a concubine or a prince?"
Those who have daughters in the palace have no choice but to keep a low profile even for the sake of fame before they take over the position, so as not to be too busy to help and implicate the daughter in the palace.It's not too late to become a relative of the emperor.
Bo Yang remembered that Jia Yuanchun was indeed a concubine in the end.In order to build the family-saving villa for her, it was necessary for other relatives to help Zhe. At that time, Baochai and Baoyu's marriage had already begun, so Xue's family must have paid a lot of money.But he didn't expect that the Jia family was already calculating the money so early?
Xue Pan was embarrassed when he heard the words, "Isn't that what you said? Our family can't get involved in this kind of thing, it's just a little bit of relatives' duty. It's just that our wife is a little embarrassed thinking about the friendship between brothers and sisters." .”
In fact, I have been busy these days, but there is no result.What Aunt Xue meant was that she wanted to live in the capital for a while. As for the money, she could take out a few thousand taels from her dowry.But neither Xue Pan nor Baochai agreed.
Although Baochai lived fairly well when he was in Jia's house, after all, he only lived for more than half a year, so it's hard to say how deep his feelings are.What's more, she has a plan in mind, knowing that her family's wealth is actually not as good as it was a few years ago, but fortunately, her brother has made progress, and this bit of family wealth must be left to him as capital, so it is not easy to take it out.
As for Xue Pan, he really didn't have a good impression during those days in the capital, and he wasn't even close to the Jia family, so naturally he didn't want to.
The two sons and daughters persuaded, but Aunt Xue finally changed her mind.It's just that, because of this, he was very happy, and he said he didn't have the face to see Mrs. Wang, so he even let go of going to the capital.
Thanks to this, Xue Pan was able to get away and come to look for Bo Yang.Because she couldn't be with her sisters, Aunt Xue suddenly felt lonely living at home, so she sent someone to invite Bo Yang to live there. After Bo Yang refused, Xue Pan immediately volunteered to pick him up.
These things were originally family matters, but Xue Pan never shy away from him in front of Bo Yang, so he told him everything.
This result made Bo Yang feel amazing.It's like a little surprise, but not too much.It's no surprise that after so many things, everything will no longer go according to the original script. It's surprising that the change seems to come easily.
But after thinking about it carefully, they are relieved, after all, they are in Jinling now, if they still live in Jia's house, the result will definitely be very different.Not to mention anything else, Xue Pan and Baochai are juniors after all, if Mrs. Wang or even the old lady comes out in person, how can they have room to talk?
Perhaps this is why they invited Aunt Xue and Baochai to Beijing at the same time?If Aunt Xue can't be persuaded, maybe Baoyu and Baochai's marriage can become one of the bargaining chips!
It doesn’t matter what the truth is. On the contrary, Xue Pan’s handling this time made Bai Yang very appreciative—he took a lot of things from his own shop, packed two large carts, sealed them with 200 taels of silver, and distributed them together. Sending people to the capital is regarded as the sincerity of their family.certainly.In order not to be scolded for paying the money, Xue Pan wrote another letter.
From this letter, it can be seen that he has made progress in the past six months, and his words are sincere and serious.First, he complimented the eldest cousin and the Jia family, and then said that he should be duty-bound to help out in such a matter, but now he is powerless.Then he explained his situation in such a way that it was almost impossible to reveal the truth, as if the 200 taels was the last cash the whole family could scrape together.
He recounted the contents of the letter vividly, and Bo Yang was amused when he heard it, "You send this letter out, and if you read it over there, I'm afraid they will really hate you." It's fine if you don't give money, this letter is simply It's like playing tricks!
Xue Pan said, "Anyway, I don't expect to gain their favor, since that's the case, it's better to stop thinking about it early."
After finishing speaking, seeing Bo Yang staring at him, he couldn't help asking, "What is Brother Yang doing looking at me like that? Could it be that I said something wrong? Or is there something wrong with me?"
"Not at all," Bo Yang said, "I just didn't expect you to say such a thing." It can be seen that sometimes the situation of great wisdom and stupidity really exists, and Xue Pan also has times when he is transparent.
Isn't this the way to deal with the Jia family?Otherwise, if you hesitate, you will be involved sooner or later, and you will not be able to escape.From Bo Yang's point of view, he naturally hoped that Xue's family and Jia's family would draw a clear line, otherwise he would be powerless even if he wanted to help.
However, before Bo Yang finished thinking about it, he saw a relaxed smile on Xue Pan's face and looked at him expectantly, "Brother Yang also thinks my approach is good? In fact, I am also very nervous, just to please Yang Brother's idea!"
Bo Yang couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, "That's all. If you want to ask for my advice in the future, come earlier. You only say that after everything is over. Are you stupid or do you think I'm stupid?"
"I'm stupid." Xue Pan said immediately.
After lingering for a while, he finally talked about inviting Bo Yang to live at home.
Bo Yang didn't plan to go, after all, even relatives don't need to be so close, let alone his half relative?
However, Xue Pan was always able to grasp his veins and persuaded him, "Although it's only October, the sky is already getting warmer. Brother Yang, aren't you the most afraid of the cold? We have an earth dragon in our house, and the weather is getting worse. It's been warming up for a while, and it's like spring in the house. Brother Yang hasn't finished the yard yet, why don't you come to my house to spend the winter?"
Bo Yang was very moved.He is afraid of the cold and the heat, but this is an era without heating or air conditioning. Rich people have various ways to survive the winter, but they are all costly, and he can't afford them now.
If there is no other way, just carry it and pass.But now that Xue Pan has given a better solution, how can he not be tempted?
But Bo Yang still said, "You also said it's winter, but it's still early. Besides, I have to make arrangements for things here."
"Then after the Lantern Festival, I will come to pick you up in person!" Xue Pan said immediately, "Brother Yang can't refuse, can he?"
Xue Pan did what he said, and immediately sent a carriage to pick up Bo Yang as soon as the Shangyuan Festival was over. ——Bai Yang, a modern man with a delicate body, is not yet able to master such a high-level skill such as horseback riding.
It was at this time that Xue Pan felt that Bo Yang was a young man who was not much different from his own age, and he also had things he didn't like and was not good at, so it didn't seem so out of reach.
When he came, Bo Yang was looking at the cloth in the yard. From a distance, he saw him riding a tall horse and walking in front, looking left and right, with a high-spirited look, which was really a bit indescribable.
Bo Yang's affairs here are almost done, so he packed up his things and can set off immediately.
When Xuan'er cleaned up, Xue Pan kept following behind to give advice.It might be useful to bring this one and that one, I really wish I could remove all the two boxes of clothes, shoes, socks and belongings of Bo Yang, Xuan'er is so annoyed that she doesn't want to talk to him at all.
The uncle said, just go to rub the earth dragon for the winter, and come back in the spring, why bring so many things?
After tidying up, when he got into the carriage, Bo Yang couldn't help but ask, "You ride the horse yourself, can I take the carriage?"
It always feels weird, if the carriage is replaced by a sedan chair, and the person inside is replaced by a girl, it will be like a wedding ceremony!
Bah, bah, why did you suddenly think of this?Bo Yang shook his head quickly, and drove this thought out of his mind.
Xue Pan was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and quickly climbed into the car, "Then I will ride with Brother Yang, and we can still talk on the road."
All the way back to Jinling smoothly, but after getting out of the car, Bo Yang realized that he was still being fooled by Xue Pan.
Probably everyone will suddenly be proficient in a skill called "Concealment" at some point. Even Xue Pan, who is usually honest in front of him, will hide important information when he speaks!
The small yard originally arranged for Bo Yang to live in was used by Mr. Xue to study in the summer, because it is facing the water, the breeze is blowing, and the heat will soon disappear.However, such a place is naturally not suitable for living in winter, so there are no earth dragons laid here.
"Brother Yang just lives here in my yard." After someone moved his things to his side, he explained to Bo Yang, and then said, "This place is spacious and has all the rooms. It will be crowded, and we brothers can talk together."
Bo Yang looked at him with a half-smile, it's really scary for an honest person to commit a crime, he had already thought about everything.There is no room for rejection at all!
The Xue family has three masters and two daughters, it is impossible for Bo Yang to choose another place to live even if he wants to.
Xue Pan watched Bo Yang's expression carefully, for fear that he would turn around and leave.The original joy in my heart has turned into apprehension.Seeing this, Bo Yang couldn't help laughing, "I was very courageous before, why are you scared now?"
"Brother Yang, don't be angry with me." Seeing that Bo Yang didn't intend to get angry, Xue Pan quickly said, "Let's go in and have a look at the room."
Bo Yang finally stayed.Anyway, there is nothing to see at the moment. He has lived in the six-person room in the university dormitory. Although it is a courtyard, the rooms are divided. What is there to be afraid of?
Having said that, Xue Pan still has a strong memory in his heart, and there will be opportunities to fix him later.
In the next few days, Bo Yang took the initiative to teach Xue Pan, tortured him to death, and finally he was able to breathe a sigh of relief.But well.Seeing Xue Pan's reaction, Bo Yang thought it was torture, but he probably didn't think so.
Those who have daughters in the palace have no choice but to keep a low profile even for the sake of fame before they take over the position, so as not to be too busy to help and implicate the daughter in the palace.It's not too late to become a relative of the emperor.
