[Red House Chai Dai] Salted Pork Knuckle, Crab Rice Wine

Even the matchmaker bowed her head and thought for a while, and suddenly felt that her daughter's proposition was very agreeable.Because of these reasons, no one in the Fu family was willing to interfere in the marriage of his siblings, and they told the Xue family that no matter if it was successful or not, they would be able to do business with her old sister.On the side of the Xue family, there is also a lot of talk: if Baochai can't be the mistress of the Fu family, and encounters misery, then she has been mistaken, and there is nothing to be afraid of; Everything was wiped out, and the husband and the child helped the Fu family to flourish day by day, so she could take the opportunity to claim credit. It was a good move that could be attacked and defended.

Thinking of this, even the matchmaker went to Fu's house to drink a cup of tea first, to let the meaning of getting married a little bit.When Fu Shi first heard that the official media planned to tell his beautiful girl to Xue's family, who was born in an imperial merchant, he felt a little displeased.

It must be known that Fu Qiufang was born with a beautiful face and beautiful appearance. She was originally quite famous in the capital. The Fu family's foundation is shallow. Originally, she wanted to rely on her to form a good relationship and take the opportunity to cling to her. The good goods are left at home, so I can't help but feel depressed.During the period, Fu Shi also made an idea of ​​Jia's family, and found out that Jia's family had a son who was born with jade, and was loved by Mrs. Shi, who liked to hang out with his daughters the most, so he dismissed the women Visit Jia's house every year and festival, and tell him about Fu Qiufang's talents and looks.Unexpectedly, Baoyu treats all girls like that. Hearing Fu Qiufang's kindness, he respects and pities her, but she never has the idea of ​​marrying back home, wasting Fu Shi's heart in vain.

Such flowery girls are all older, but if they are looking for a continuation or something, there are still opportunities, so Fu Shi did not give up his desire to marry a wealthy family.So what is the Xue family?Which one in the capital does not know about the reputation of Big Idiot Xue?How could Fu Shi be willing to marry his younger sister into his family?

But when he thought of Miss Xue from the Xue family, Fu Shi couldn't help but move his mind.Marry a daughter from a high family, marry a woman from a low family.The identity of Miss Xue's family is more than enough for him, and he has heard that Miss Xue's dowry is generous and her reputation for being the best at business management.Originally, with a family background like Baochai's appearance and reputation, he would not be able to marry Xuxian, but since it is a marriage exchange, it is not surprising.

Fu Shi was happy in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he asked the matchmaker, "I have heard about Miss Xue's reputation. There is only one thing, how can such a good daughter with such a reputation in his family be reduced to changing relatives?" the point?"

Even the matchmaker is the best at observing words and expressions. When she was at Xue's house, she saw Aunt Xue's attitude that she only wanted to send her daughter away and would not refuse anyone who came to her, so she guessed that Baochai must have something wrong with her biological mother. She is aggrieved.But even the matchmaker has gone through many things, no matter how tragic the experience is in her eyes, her heart has long been as cold as a knife, and she explained with a smile: "It's not because of her ineffective brother. Her brother has been I didn't find a reliable family, and she is a filial child, so it's not good to just marry like this, regardless of the life and death of her mother's family. Because I thought that it was time for the master and lady in the house to talk about their marriage, I thought about matching them up for a while .”

Fu Shi was already very willing in his heart, but he pushed to the matchmaker that he had to see the girl's appearance in person before making a decision.This is not in compliance with the rules, and it is not something that decent people can do.Even the matchmaker had scolded Fu Shi thousands of times in her heart, but she had to put on a polite look on her face, and said to him: "Is there any elder female relatives in the house? Why don't you let the old lady arrange it, go to see each other once, then Know the bottom line." But Fu Shi called it wrong.His parents died early, and there are no reliable female relatives among his close relatives, otherwise, he would not be allowed to do such a foolish thing.

Even the matchmaker had no choice but to think hard, but she couldn't evade it, so Fang came up with an idea: "If the master wants to see others, the old woman is helpless. It's just that since the Xue family is open for business, the young lady of the Xue family occasionally comes to the shop Walk around, when the master wants to see, I'm afraid he will land on it."

As soon as Fu Shi heard that it was reasonable, he rewarded the matchmaker with some tea money, and sent a young man to Xue's shop to inquire.The boy went to inquire for a few days, and when he came back, he said: "The Xue family's shop is very messy, and most of it is under the management of the uncle of the Xue family. There are only two shops under the management of Miss Xue, but they haven't been in charge for a few years." , but it has grown into a large area. It is common for her family members to come and go, and the small ones have only seen it from a distance, and the grandeur is no more than that of an imperial concubine in the palace."

Fu Shi inquired clearly, thinking that his sister was already 23 years old, and it was estimated that relying on her to cling to the noble family would be hopeless, so it would be better to exchange the younger sister for the cash cow of the Xue family, and it would be of some use.Although that idiot Xue has a bad reputation in the capital, but with Miss Xue's family in hand, he is not afraid that he will humiliate his sister too much.So he sent someone to tell the matchmaker Nalian, asking her to come to make peace.

The matchmaker got the letter and hurried to Xue's house to tell Aunt Xue about the ins and outs. Aunt Xue was a little happy when she first heard that the future uncle would be an official and might be able to support Xue Pan. After inquiring, Fu Qiufang was said to be 23 years old, an old girl, and she began to dislike her in her heart, her words were slow, and she pushed back and forth.

Even the matchmaker's originally excited win-win move was delayed by her so much, she didn't say it would work, and she didn't say it wouldn't work. Tucao said to her daughter: "Women have long hair and short knowledge. I can't blame her husband who would rather die early than let her go! I don't care about her son's virtue. If there is a girl who is willing to marry, it will be a high incense. If it is not Miss Xue With a good reputation, this marriage could not fall on her family's head. It is unreasonable to dare to delay?"

Although her daughter is young, she is very clever, so she suggested to her again: "What's the problem? I heard that the overlord Xue Dai is most greedy for beauty, as long as his appearance is a little better, he doesn't care about anything else. Up to now, there is no other way, you just start with him."

Even the matchmaker made sense when she heard it.Fu Qiufang doesn't leave the gate every day, and if he doesn't step out of the second door, he goes to the homes of noble ladies and ladies in the capital, and he walks cautiously.How could Xue Pan have the chance to see him?However, she has professional ethics, and she spent a lot of money to make this matchmaking, especially since she has already done half of it, and naturally there is no reason to give up halfway. Er'er was a good friend, so he bought some money to buy off the little maid who served Yun'er, and while Uncle Xue was resting in Jinxiangyuan, he whispered Fu Qiufang's good name in his ears.Then it was revealed to Xue Pan's servant, saying that Fu's family intended to marry, but Aunt Xue would not allow it.

Xue Pan heard Fu Qiufang's good name from Jinxiangyuan, and his heart was itchy like being scratched half by a cat, but Fu Qiufang was a lady from an official family, no better than a family like Jinxiangyuan who opened their doors to do flesh and blood business Wanton and frivolous, I am regretting in my heart, but I don't want his little servant to reveal the news that the Fu family intends to marry.

Xue Pan was overjoyed when he heard the news, and hurried home to question Aunt Xue, saying what he said, begging Aunt Xue to facilitate the marriage.Aunt Xue was an old widow who lived by pointing at her son, so she doted on her son for no reason. Seeing Xue Pan's appearance now, she couldn't stand it, but she changed her tune in a few words.

Even the matchmaker got the letter and hurriedly went to inform the Fu family, so the two families made intensive preparations.

Baochai didn't know Duandi until Xue Pan went home to make trouble with Aunt Xue.She had met Fu Qiufang at the flower appreciation banquet held by Wang Ziteng's daughter before, and knew that she was a good girl with outstanding character and refined character, which was completely different from Xia Jingui married by Xue Pan in the previous life.Therefore, after hearing the news of the marriage exchange, although he felt sorry for Aunt Xue's disregard for him, but thinking that if Xue Pan could marry a good girl like Fu Qiufang as his wife, he would forget about it.Therefore, there is also the idea of ​​sacrificing oneself and fulfilling others.So he pretended not to know.She thought in her heart that even if the Fu family was a dragon's lake and a tiger's den, she might not be unable to find a chance.

Unexpectedly, there was no response from the Xue family, but something went wrong with the Fu family.Although Miss Fu Qiufang was held back by her brother, she wasted her time, but she has a strong opinion.Her nanny found out that her brother was the main betrother to marry her to Xue's family, and hurriedly went outside to inquire about Xue Pan's temperament and behavior, Fu Qiufang was not happy at that time.The girl went to see her elder brother Fu Shi in sackcloth and filial piety, and frankly said that if Fu Shi dared to marry her to Xue Pan, she would bump her head to death in front of him.Fu Shi felt a little guilty towards Fu Qiufang, although he wanted to rely on her to get a good relative, but he never thought of letting her die, so he panicked for a while.From now on, the marriage will be over.

When Baochai found out the news, she deeply felt sorry for her elder brother Xue Pan, but she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.If Fu Qiufang's handsome appearance, if she really married in, it would be a good thing for Xue's family, but would it be another Xiangling?Now that she has a strong temper, she rejected this marriage, although Baochai felt quite regretful, but she also felt relieved and lost a layer of worry.

However, Aunt Xue's desire to find a marriage for Baochai never stopped, on the contrary, she became more and more frantic.

Although Baochai is calm and self-absorbed, everyone around her can't help worrying about her future.She paid a sum of money to do business with the eldest princess, Han Qi, a certain concubine cousin of the Wang family, etc., and discussed maritime business. She just went to the eldest princess's mansion to pay a visit, and her highness called her to stop After leaving her, he asked her with a worried face, if she knew that Aunt Xue was going to marry her daughter regardless.
