After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber
Chapter 216 Xue Baochai
After returning, Mrs. Xue Wang told Xue Duan that Mrs. Xin's family was pregnant as a concubine, and she paid homage to Buddha with great fanfare.
"His grandma followed, and Mrs. Xin brought the concubine with her. This is really not particular! I think her stomach is not even full for three months, but she can't stay in the room to recuperate , but want to come out and follow the bumps, it looks like a restless person!"
As the main wife, there is a kind of hostility and faint malice towards the concubine's room naturally.
For example, now, Xue Wang didn't even consider the possibility that the reason why the concubine followed was requested by Mrs. Xin's family, and directly characterized her as restless.
However, just looking at her standing behind Grandma Xin's family, without the slightest fear, but with a hint of complacency, Wang Xue did not wrong her.
Xue Duan frowned when he heard the words: "This is to offend the Xiao family to death."
"Isn't it?" Mrs. Xue Wang also didn't understand, "I don't know what the head of the Xin family thinks, why did he let Mrs. Xin do this?"
Xue Duan said, "Grandma Xin has been in the house for seven or eight years, and her stomach hasn't moved. The Xin family wants to take a concubine for their son, which is justified."
Not to mention, the second and third children of the Xin family are already full-fledged, and it is understandable for Mrs. Xin to be anxious to hug her grandson.
Xue Wangshi pouted and said nothing.
In fact, she was very disdainful in her heart: If a man doesn't go to a woman's room, no matter how capable a woman is, would she dare to admit that she is pregnant with a man?
It's just that she never likes to go against her husband, so naturally she won't say such things.
But even though she didn't say it, Xue Duan and her young husband and wife, and she never liked to hide her emotions in front of Xue Duan, how could he not see it?
However, since my wife cares about my face, I naturally have to worry about my wife's face.The two of them stopped talking about each other, and turned to chatting about other things.
"Didn't you say that you want to take this opportunity to seek marriage for Pan'er and Chai'er? How about it, what instructions does the Buddha have?"
As soon as this was mentioned, Mrs. Xue Wang couldn't help but show a look of joy: "Shangshang sign, it's all the top sign!"
Most businessmen believe in gods and Buddhas, and even go out to pick up the zodiac and the underworld. Xue Duan was very happy to hear that they were all signed up: "That's good, that's good. In the future, both Pan'er and Chai'er will be good." Marriage, madam, don’t forget to fulfill your vows in front of the Buddha, and add more sesame oil money.”
Xue Wang said angrily, "Is it up to you to say that?"
Xue Duan said with a smile: "Madam is always thoughtful, and as a husband, I only give a few words in vain."
Mrs. Xue Wang smiled complacently, but suddenly sighed again: "It's okay to talk about Pan'er. I said early in the morning that I want to marry someone who is good-looking. But for Chai'er, I asked more than once. I don't know for sure, what kind of person is she looking for?"
Xue Duan murmured: "Chai'er is not something in the pool. I'm afraid ordinary men won't catch her eyes. I originally intended to send her to run for election, but after all, I don't want our beloved daughter to go in and serve others... Hey, Besides, she's still young anyway!"
Hearing that her husband intends to send her daughter to the election, Wang Xue became nervous all of a sudden, and then she was relieved when she heard that he was reluctant, and complained: "Why does the master have such an idea? Don't say that our family is just a business. It's Miss Yuan from the Rongguo Mansion, but that's the lady of the Duke's Mansion. Once she enters the palace, she hasn't had a bright future for several years? My hairpin is so big, and she has never held anything heavier than a teacup. How can she serve others? "
Xue Duan saw that he had slipped the tongue by accident, so he felt guilty and put down his body to coax his wife: "I just think about it, how can I be willing? Madam, don't worry, I will never think about it like this again in the future!"
Xue Wangshi was happy again: "I believe in the master."
But she didn't know that at this time in her previous life, her husband died of illness and her son was young. For the sake of her son and the family business, she had to find contacts to send her daughter to run for election.
However, such a spot that she had worked so hard to get was lost by her good sister, Jia Wangshi.And she was foolish enough to let people fool her, only treating people as life-saving straws.
Now that her husband is still alive, her son seems to be getting more and more promising, and life is going very smoothly, so naturally she doesn't want her daughter to suffer that.
******
Xue Duan and his wife are already thinking about their daughter's marriage, while Baochai over there is also worrying about his own marriage.
It's just that the former is worried that his daughter won't find a good husband, while the latter is worried that his parents are too enthusiastic about it.
If Baochai was still a little apprehensive about her choice before, after in-depth contact with Xin Xin, Grandma Xin and Xiao Ling, she became unwavering in her decision.
Among them, of course, there is her rebellious psychology caused by being suppressed too hard in her previous life.Jia Baoyu, who abandoned her shortly after marriage, also contributed a lot.
In their marriage, she, Xue Baochai, was indeed at fault, and he, Jia Baoyu, was completely innocent?
You and I get married, although it is impure, but it is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.How many couples in this world are childhood sweethearts who hit it off?Don't they have a good life after marriage?
You were powerless to resist your parents, so why did you abandon me without saying a word?
In addition, she has been in Jia's family for many years, and she has seen many Jia's men who are greedy, lustful and irresponsible, and she is even more disappointed with the men in this world.
Are there any good men in this world?
Baochai also has to admit that there are still some.
However, she didn't believe that she had such a good life to meet her.Today, her mother Xue Wang asked for three marriage lottery for her, all of which were signed, which made her believe that she would not meet the so-called lover.
Then simply don't look forward to it, and you won't be disappointed in the future, let alone despair.
So, from this day on, Baochai began to express his liking for Buddhist scriptures and rituals.
At the beginning, Xue Wang didn't care.After all, she herself believed in Buddhism.
However, after staying for a long time, she saw that her daughter was actually obsessed, and she didn't even like studying with her father anymore, so she panicked.
"Master, why do I feel that there is something wrong with Chai'er?"
"There's something wrong," Xue Duan also said, "She hasn't asked me for business advice for several days, and she's not keen on making jewelry by herself anymore."
You know, in the past few years, Baochai has designed several pieces of jewelry that have won the favor of the nobles and earned their family a lot of face.
Xue Wang said worriedly: "In the past, she didn't like those flowers and powders. The room was always clean and refreshing, and there was no fragrance on her body. But recently, she lit sandalwood, which is even more so every day. Recite the Buddha's name for two hours. This... This is a lay Buddhist who has worshiped the Buddha for many years, and she is not as pious as her!"
Hearing what his wife said, Xue Duan also realized the seriousness of the matter: "Is she going to see through the world?"
Xue Wangshi nodded with a sad face.
She used to think that Baochai was a girl from a family, and instead of learning knitting all day long, she wanted to learn how to do business from the master.
However, today's Xue Wang feels that it is good even if her daughter is obsessed with business!No matter what, it is better than indulging in Buddhism, right?
Xue Duan spent a long while in the room with a sullen face, and said with a strong attitude: "Tomorrow you will take someone to collect all the Buddhist scriptures in her room, and I will take her and Pan'er to manage our family's property together. Break your mind back into the world of mortals."
"Hey, good." Xue Wang's family has long been confused, and at this time, it is natural that her husband will do whatever he says.Thinking of my opposition to my daughter's business studies before, I blamed myself, "It was all my fault in the past. I only wanted to find a good husband's family for her, but ignored her own preferences. From now on, I will not stop her again."
Xue Duan said: "It's good if you can figure it out."
In his opinion, it would be better for her daughter to be smarter and stronger. When she comes to her husband's house in the future, even if her husband is incompetent, she won't suffer a loss.
Xue Wang quickly said: "I understand, I understand, what else do I not understand?"
——The daughter is going to see through the world of mortals!
So, early the next morning, as soon as Baochai was called away by his father on the front foot, Mrs. Xue Wang personally led people to Baochai's yard on the back foot.She first respectfully invited the statue of Medicine Buddha away, and then threatened Baochai's maid, collected all the Buddhist scriptures in her yard, and took away every single page.
Anyway, when Baochai came back after dealing with her father, there was only a mess left in her yard, and a group of maids with bitter faces.
"Girl," Ying'er and Que'er greeted her as if mourning, Ying'er said, "It's the servants who are useless, they can't stop Madam."
After hearing this, what else does Baochai not understand?It must be that her parents noticed that she was obsessed with Buddhism, and when they couldn't persuade her, they took coercive measures.
An imperceptible smile flashed in Baochai's eyes, and she said calmly, "I see, it's not your fault."
Ying'er and Que'er looked at each other, and they both saw worry in each other's eyes.
——Although the girls in their family were lenient in the past, there is still a clear distinction between rewards and punishments.Today, my wife came. Although it is a fact that they cannot resist, it is also a fact that they did not keep the yard well.
If it were left in the past, the girls would have to reprimand them to make them do it differently.
But today, it was just so lightly carried away.
This is so abnormal!
Ying'er thought to herself: No wonder my wife wants to take away the Buddha statues and Buddhist scriptures. The girl is indeed a little stupid in reading.
But Que'er was distressed: If the girl continues to be so lenient, all the girls in the yard will have their minds wandering, it's the wrong way.It seems that Sister Ying'er and I still have to work harder to suppress it, and we must not let our yard be messed up.
Baochai ignored the entangled two at all, and walked slowly to the room where she used to worship Buddha. Seeing that the futon was gone, she simply sat on the ground, slowly twisting the prayer beads she carried with her, and murmured:
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva walks in the depth of Prajna Paramita..."
Ying'er and Que'er, who had chased to the door, looked at each other with helplessness on their faces.
——Madam’s tricks are useless at all!
