Red Mansions I am Aunt Xue
Chapter 48
Mrs. Wang looked around the room and saw that there were only two simple landscape paintings by famous masters, and a set of white porcelain tea set and fruit plate on the small table between the two of them, but there were no other valuables.
As an imperial businessman, why is it so poor? Mrs. Wang suppressed her doubts and turned to say, "Your sister is doing well recently, and you are too. We didn't talk about keeping filial piety before. Now it's all filial piety, why don't you?" I don’t see you coming to my sister’s place to play.”
Xiao Ning put the tea bowl down with a smile, and said with a smile, "Didn't my sister say something wrong last time, and she was angry with her? My sister also has the cheek to say hello to her." Mrs. Wang wanted not to mention what happened last time , but she wanted to mention it.By the way, she secretly sarcastically said that she has a thick skin, anyway, Mrs. Wang's visit today will not be a good thing.
The smile on Mrs. Wang's face froze, she tightened the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a smile: "My sister really likes to joke. We are sisters of the same mother, how can my sister be angry with you, my sister? By the way, early I heard that my sister-in-law's brother is at my sister's house, why haven't I seen anyone?"
"My sister doesn't know something. Brother Yu is weak, and after arriving in the capital, he was not acclimatized, so he has been bedridden."
"Really? That's hard to handle. After all, it's a child of a relative's family. What if something happens? Don't let the relative fail to do it and make a grudge."
Xue Ning smiled, not to mention that Lin Yu was pretending.Even if it wasn't, her master would have made an agreement with Lin Ruhai, so nothing like this would happen.As for Mrs. Wang, it seems that this remark is for her own good, but there must be some intention behind it.
"Brother Yu's health is not good, and the brothers and sisters of the Lin family know about it. When the Lin family cousin sent him to Beijing, he also wanted the help of the Beijing Chinese imperial physician to take a look at his health. Our master has already handed over the post, Just wait for the people from the Tai Hospital to come over."
"Since you want an imperial doctor, why do you need brother-in-law to hand over the post so much trouble. Why don't you let brother Yu live in Jia's mansion." Seeing the change in Xue Ning's face, Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "Oh, I don't mean it. I just feel Firstly, Jia's house is Brother Yu's natal family, and secondly, the imperial doctor who came to see the old lady is also a master. In a few days, it will be the day when the old lady will diagnose Ping'an pulse, and it is good for Brother Yu to see it too. "
Xue Ning finally knew the reason for Mrs. Wang's visit, she wanted to take Yu'er into Jia's residence.As for the idea of playing, it is not difficult to imagine.But now, Xue Ning is afraid that she has disappointed Mrs. Wang.
"The Jia family is Brother Yu's natal family. It is said that Brother Yu should have gone to greet the old lady. This is because I am keeping a filial piety, so I can't take Brother Yu there. The other is that Yu'er is small and has a small body. It's not good, I can't get out of bed. Now? It's not that my sister doesn't want to, it's because my brother is sick again. It's moving around, in case there is a wind? My sister just said that my brother died in our house That would be very bad.”
Mrs. Wang's face froze again, she hated Xiao Ning from the bottom of her heart.She could tell that her younger sister didn't think of her as an older sister at all.Thinking about it now, I'm afraid he didn't take Jia's family seriously.
Xue Ning didn't care about the cold light in Mrs. Wang's eyes, instead she said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Zhu also ended up in Qiu Wei this time, I wonder how the result is?"
Mrs. Wang's complexion recovered, and she sighed with a smile: "This child, I have already told him. People like us don't need to study hard to steal other people's fame. But he doesn't listen, so he insists on giving it a try. It's all right now, I just won No.2." Mrs. Wang was afraid that Xue Ning might not be able to hear it, so she specially emphasized the words "cai" and "second".There is a lot of self-satisfaction in the words,
Xue Ning did not change her face as Mrs. Wang wished, but instead said with a smile: "That's really congratulations to sister." Then she said with a melancholy face: "Our family's Qiu'er is no different from Zhuge'er, and he was born in a duke's family. Since I was young, I have to work very hard. As a mother, I see it in my eyes and feel pain in my heart. Fortunately, the hard work pays off, and Qiuer understands Yuan this time. Sister, you don’t know, my master is called a one when he hears the news Happy."
Approaching Mrs. Wang, Xue Ning took her hand, and said: "That's all right, the two brothers will end up at the same time next year when Chunwei is finished. It would be best if the two brothers won the top two like this time."
When Xue Ning wanted to continue talking, Mrs. Wang continued with a kind face and said, "That's really congratulations to my sister. Isn't Brother Qiu going to Beijing in a while? Let Zhu Er be your brother." If you teach Qiu'er more, you will be able to win the top two places." Seeing that Xue Ning's face remained unchanged, Mrs. Wang said again: "Come here today, and I have another news to tell my sister. We will enter the palace in October of Yuanchun. In addition, Brother Zhu is very happy to be elected, so half a month later there will be a wedding banquet in the mansion, and my sister also sent a message to my younger sister."
Xue Ning took the post from Zhou Rui's family, and said, "Don't worry, sister, my sister will come to congratulate you at that time. There is only one thing that my sister still doesn't know, so I ask my sister to help you out?"
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Wang looked at Xue Ning quite vigilantly, fearing that she would speak harshly again.
Sure enough, Xue Ning did not disappoint Mrs. Wang, and asked: "As far as my sister knows, the election was held as early as last year. But in October, it was the female history. My sister wants to send Yuan girl into the palace to serve people. go?"
Mrs. Wang couldn't help standing up after hearing the words, and said sharply: "Sister, be careful. Nushi is a female official, how can she serve others? Since my sister doesn't want me to pick up Brother Yu, then I will go back to the mansion first. Old lady." After saying that, he left in a fit of anger.
In fact, Xiao Xiao didn't want to be so angry with her.Since she went to Beijing, Mrs. Wang never thought of benefiting herself or her.When did she not come up with an idea out of self-righteousness, but still put on the face of being a good sister?It was really bad for her to see.
She is not afraid that Mrs. Wang will suppress the Xue family or something like that.Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng in the future, who didn't rely on Wang Ziteng to straighten their backs and do things without scruples.She is also Wang Ziteng's biological sister, and has a simple family and a motivated son.If there is a fight, Wang Ziteng is not sure who to help.
As for Yuan Chun, Xue Ning smiled.Not to mention that it will be more than ten years before she becomes a noble concubine, so what if she becomes an imperial concubine now.The fact that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics means that today's empresses dare not cross the threshold.Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao sighed again.I just feel sorry for the girl Yuan Chun, who is going to that shady place at such a young age.
In the west wing of Xue's mansion, Lin Yu was writing with her back straight.With a good sound, Fang stopped writing with a sore wrist.This is what Sister Bao told him, saying that it was a combination of work and rest.Thinking of Sister Bao, Lin Yu's jade-like cheeks flashed a blush.Then he hurriedly looked back and saw that Xue Pan, who was practicing calligraphy with him, was lying on the table and sleeping in the dark, so he was relieved.
Everyone thought he didn't know.In fact, the last time Aunt Xue asked Cousin Qiu how he was and whether he had the same interests as Sister Bao.He happened to be looking for Cousin Qiu, so he listened rightly.Lin Yu is no longer a naive child who didn't know the world, but matured much earlier than ordinary people.Therefore, after hearing what Xiao Xiao said, he naturally understood the meaning.Lin Yu, who had long had no feelings for Baochai, tried her best to suppress the ecstasy in her heart, and quietly retreated into her room.
It turned out that Baochai felt sorry for Lin Yu who lost her mother at birth, and it happened that she had no younger brother, so she treated Lin Yu as a younger brother to love her.Thinking of Baochai's care for him, Lin Yu's face turned even redder.
At this moment, Baochai led the girl who brought snacks into the door, and said with a smile, "I must be hungry after practicing calligraphy for so long. I made the snacks myself. You can try them." With a wave of her hand, the little maid hurriedly Put the snacks on the table.
Walking to Xue Pan's side, Baochai lightly shook her head.He pondered for a while, but finally did not wake him up.Turning around, he beckoned Lin Yu to have a snack, lest he swallow, and asked someone to pour tea.After some action, it is very meticulous.
Since she was seven years old, she hadn't had much contact with Lin Yu.I just don't know what my parents think?He actually told her to take more care of him.He also said that there was nothing wrong with Xue Pan, his brother, by his side.So it doesn't matter so much.
As careful as Baochai, she felt that something was unusual.But she didn't guess much.Seeing that Lin Yu's face was flushed, he asked, "What's wrong with Cousin Lin, but he has a cold and fever again."
"No..." She turned her head to avoid Baochai's hand reaching out to touch her forehead, her face turned even more red.Then she turned her head and stared at Baochai, saying, "I'm fine, maybe it's a little hot." Baochai turned his head to look at the sky, the sun isn't shining today, so how could it be hot?
Seeing Baochai's movements from the corner of her eyes, Lin Yu hurriedly lowered her head and ate the cakes Baochai sent, murmuring that they were delicious, delicious.
Baochai is also precocious and intelligent.Seeing his appearance, she didn't know anything, so she blushed and took a sip from him, then got up and said: "Eat slowly by yourself, I'll be back."
Lin Yu hurriedly dropped the pastry in his hand, got up and grabbed Baochai, "Sister Bao, are you angry? I... I... Don't be angry, I..." Lin Yu stammered, not knowing what to say, feeling anxious It's terrible, sweat is coming out of his forehead.
Baochai lightly shook Lin Yu's hand, and covered her red face with a handkerchief in the other hand, and stopped pinching for a while, "Don't talk nonsense, I am such a stingy person. It's just that mother is still waiting." I'll go to read the post together, and you should go and read as soon as you have used up the snacks."
Lin Yu stood there in a daze, until Baochai was about to leave the courtyard, and then said: "Sister Bao, don't worry, I will study now."
Baochai paused and left quickly.After returning to his own room, he stomped his feet and said, "You can rest assured for me when you study, not for yourself, hum..." He hummed softly again, and somehow, there was a hint of sweetness in his heart.
………………
"They really thought I was asleep, but I was just squinting."
Xue Ning, who was leaning on the soft couch, listened to Xue Pan dancing and dancing, smiled, and then said seriously: "You can tell me about this and it's over. Don't tell others about it, or you will be bad for your sister." good."
Xue Pan patted his small chest when he heard the words, and said, "Mom, just don't worry, even father, I won't say anything."
Xiao Ning touched Xue Pan's little head and smiled in relief.
As an imperial businessman, why is it so poor? Mrs. Wang suppressed her doubts and turned to say, "Your sister is doing well recently, and you are too. We didn't talk about keeping filial piety before. Now it's all filial piety, why don't you?" I don’t see you coming to my sister’s place to play.”
