Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

Chapter 64 Not a Good Match

Although Xue Pan's gloating tone was not very good, but his words were not wrong.

On the other hand, Baochai laughed and said, "When did my brother start biting at the words and dropping the bookbag?"

But one is Bo Yang and the other is the younger sister. Xue Pan has no temper towards them, so he can only say, "I have been studying for so many years. If I don't make any progress, I am afraid that the two gentlemen will feel ashamed to lead our family's Shu Xiu. Shibie will look at me with admiration in three days, and my sister will be surprised if she still looks at me with old eyes."

Bo Yang smiled and said, "That's right. If that's the case, let Second Master Bao listen to his career and economics for two days. Later, you can tell those two gentlemen his identity and ask them to be more attentive."

Baochai rolled her eyes, at first she wanted to say that there was no need to be so narrow-minded, but thinking that Baoyu would come here every day, even if things didn't work out in the future, it would not be appropriate after all.What's more, he came so often, it's hard to say that my mother's thoughts after waking up with great difficulty changed back again.

Thinking of this, she showed a look of worry on her face, and said to Bo Yang and Xue Pan, "By the way, I was only focusing on gossip and forgot about business. When I first arrived a few days ago, my mother told me, and I guessed it in words." Now that we have reached the purpose of Jia's family, the situation is not as bad as we thought. It's just that my aunt has always brought Baoyu over these few days, and I don't know if she mentioned it, but I watched coldly, and my mother was afraid that she might be persuaded again. , so I am in a hurry!"

After all, she is a girl, so it is not good to always talk about these right and wrong in front of Aunt Xue, so even if she is worried in her heart, it is not good to show it. —— Mrs. Wang seems to have not mentioned the matter of borrowing money again, but if Baochai always talks about it, it doesn't seem like it.

But there is no other way to make Aunt Xue vigilant and not be taken advantage of by others.

It was precisely because of this worry that she made up her mind to come, even though going out secretly would damage the girl's reputation.This is always something to discuss.

"After so many years of sisterhood, it is difficult to let go of it for a while." Bo Yang said, "But I think, in my wife's heart, you two are more important after all. Since she can't let her be wary of Mrs. Wang, then from another Just start in the direction."

"Brother Yang has an idea?" Xue Pan immediately asked with dignity.

Since Bo Yang arranged this meeting, he said it was a "discussion", but it is obviously impossible for the three of them to come up with a solution here at once - if it is so easy, there is no need to meet and discuss.So Bo Yang must have made some preparations in advance.

When Baochai heard this, she also looked at him expectantly.She heard her brother mention a lot of Bo Yang's deeds, and she always felt that there was nothing in the world that could stop him, so she immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Bo Yang had a solution.Although she is high-minded, she is still a little girl after all, and it is difficult for her to be alone in many things. She has a reliable brother, so she naturally relies on her subconsciously.

Bo Yang asked Xue Pan, "How about the things I asked you to do yesterday?"

"It has been done." Xue Pan said, "With Master Liu's face, the adults in the inner palace are not embarrassed, and the matter will be settled soon." He took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Yang, "Didn't I already write a note to me, and just go there and do it when I go back."

Bo Yang took a look at it and said with a smile, "That's right."

Then he passed the note to Baochai, "Take this back and show it to your wife later."

"Neifu...spices?" Baochai couldn't help wondering after reading it, "Although our family has a spice business, what does it have to do with the Jia family's affairs?"

Xue Pan said, "This is not the kind of spice from our family. Back on the boat, it was the kind of fragrance that Yang Geer Tete sent to Mom, you and Miss Lin."

"The smell of the incense is good, light and elegant, whether it is reading and writing, needlework, or sleeping at night, it can burn a little bit." Baochai said, "Sister Lin also said that she likes it, but mother said that she likes it more when she is older." Those sweet and warm aromas."

Xue Pan nodded and said, "Brother Yang made this incense, and now it's only made in our shop. If it can be sent to the palace through the line of the inner government, it will be of great benefit."

Although in the inner palace, because of the face of Mr. Liu in the Jiangning Weaving Mansion, Xue Pan can now be considered unimpeded, no matter what he does, there will be no problem, but after all, it is taking advantage of others, it is better to cultivate himself.Now Xue's fabrics are all made in cooperation with Jiangning weaving, and they are delivered from there. In this way, here in the inner palace, there should naturally be other things to support the scene, and this incense is a good choice.

Hearing Baochai's words, Bo Yang thought deeply, "Sister's words reminded me. I only thought of light and elegant, but I forgot that elderly ladies might not like it. The light fragrance, I'm afraid it is more popular among young ladies and literati. I will think about the formula later."

When Baochai heard this, although Bo Yang hadn't said what the solution he had thought of, she had already guessed a little bit, "I see, Brother Yang intends to use this spice business to let Mom use the money in his hand. Take them all out?"

Doing this kind of business naturally requires capital.Of course, there is no need to worry about making a profit when doing business with the royal family, it is very appropriate.That's how she could persuade Aunt Xue to take out all her savings, otherwise she would always have to keep some for emergencies.

And they were all taken out and used up, so naturally there was no need to worry about the calculations of the Jia family.After all, even if Aunt Xue is soft-hearted, regrets, and wants to support the Jia family, she will not have the money in hand.

"This is called 'drawing the bottom from the pot', am I right?" Xue Pan said with a smile.

In the past two days, he has been a little obsessed with showing his "talent" in front of Bo Yang, but it's a pity that he performed too hard, and he was always holding a shelf with his book bag dropped, which made people laugh.Even Baochai couldn't help looking sideways, but Xue Pan didn't realize it, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Bo Yang nodded with a smile, and said, "Exactly. My wife is always looking forward to making a career for Brother Pan, and this is the best opportunity in front of me, even if it can't achieve the goal that made the ancestor Ziwei give up Xue Gong. Achievement, but it is enough to make the ancestors of the Xue family smile at Jiuquan."

A look of excitement flashed in Baochai's eyes.

She is a very thoughtful girl. She knew that her brother was unreliable, so she somehow meant to work hard on her own. If it weren't for this, she would not have entered Beijing to be elected.But she also knows that if she wants to go that way, she has to borrow the power of others, and how can others be as reliable as herself?If the Xue family can restore its former glory, then as a daughter of a direct relative, she will naturally rise with the tide and no longer need to rack her brains to find ways to go up.

"If it's really feasible, Brother Yang will be our Xue family's benefactor." She murmured.

Bo Yang said, "You're talking nonsense again, we are a family now."

"Yes." Baochai came back to her senses, and her expression became completely relaxed, "I'm the one who missed it, Brother Yang, don't blame me." But she still lamented her brother's good luck again in her heart. When I met a person like Bo Yang, and then the prodigal son turned around, he was on the right path from then on.

I don't know that my brother is lucky to have cultivated for several lifetimes to meet such a person as Yang brother, who is always willing to consider him in every way. ——Although Bo Yang himself said that they are a family, Baochai always felt that he was closer to his elder brother than anyone else. Although she couldn't tell the difference, she could feel it.

Of course, his brother treated him the same way.

If you want to come to the mountains and rivers, you will be friends with your friends, and that's all there is to it.

Things have been agreed upon, Baochai put down the burden in her heart, no worries in her expression, Bo Yang and Xue Pan led her away from here, strolled in the market outside for a while, saw a lot of excitement.It wasn't until it was getting late that Baochai was thinking about Aunt Xue's place, and then she proposed to go back.

"That's fine," Bo Yang said, "The capital is so big, you can't finish it in one day. Come back later when you are free."

Baochai returned to the carriage, only to find that there were a lot of things in the carriage, and when he looked closely, he found that they were all things he had seen on the street before, but everything was here after playing with it for a while.Can't help but sigh Bo Yang's carefulness, and said to Xue Pan, "I don't know which girl from a family will be so lucky to marry such a good man as Brother Yang."

Xue Pan carefully looked at his younger sister's face, and was sure that she had no romantic thoughts about Bo Yang, but pure emotion, so he breathed a sigh of relief.Then he snorted and said, "No girl is good enough for Brother Yang!"

Baochai couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, "That's true. Brother Yang himself is so outstanding, where in the world can we find a woman who is more beautiful than him? If I marry someone who is not as good-looking as himself, I will not be wronged."

After she finished speaking, she thought silently in her heart that in terms of appearance and demeanor, among the people she had met, Lin Daiyu was probably the only one who could compare with Bo Yang.However, sister Lin... is good, but there are too many things involved in her body.At this moment, Baochai suddenly understood the thoughts of the old lady and Mrs. Wang. After all, people’s hearts are biased. The old lady and Mrs. Wang are biased towards Baoyu, and she is biased toward Bo Yang. One word: not a good match.

Thinking of this, Baochai only felt that his face was burning very hot.A few days ago, she felt that Daiyu was not worth feeling sorry for, but now she is no different from others, so her guilt towards Daiyu is even deeper.

So after returning to Jia's house, she changed her clothes, took the little things she bought from the street, and went to Daiyu's place.

Daiyu was leaning against the window in a daze, bored.Because of the old lady's advice, Zijuan and others simply put away the books, paper and pens, and did not let her touch them again. Even the needle and thread were said to hurt the mind and eyes, so she could only let her have a good life.However, he was not allowed to get out of bed and did nothing, so he could only be in a daze like this.

Seeing Baochai approaching from a distance from the window, she hastily turned her face away, frowned slightly, and her expression dimmed again.
