[Red Mansion + Martial Arts] The Virgin Strikes

Chapter 6 A Dream of Red Mansions--Mother Jia

"Well," Qian Xiaoqiao was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "I heard that your nephew had some trouble in Jinling?"

Mrs. Wang's complexion looked bad, and she said awkwardly: "The case has already been judged, it's nothing serious."

"That's good." Qian Xiaoqiao nodded, closed his eyes and rested his mind, and said nothing more.

Mrs. Wang made fun of herself, and quietly resigned with a dark face.

Daiyu on the side thought that Qian Xiaoqiao had rested, so she quietly put down Jiu Lianhuan and turned to reading quietly.After a while, seeing her open her eyes, Daiyu asked her with a smile what kind of person Xue's elder sister was.

Qian Xiaoqiao smiled and hugged Daiyu in his arms, without answering, he asked about Baoyu instead: "Has he secretly gone to bother you lately?"

"He reads his book and comes to me for what to do. Even if he dares to come, I will beat him out for my grandmother!" Daiyu replied seriously.

Daiyu has already memorized the skills her grandmother taught her to distinguish people; now in Daiyu's eyes, boys who are responsible, good moral, and self-motivated are excellent.She is too lazy to deal with the devil king like Jia Baoyu. She is ignorant all day long, except for molesting the maids.It's no wonder that his grandmother often scolded him for not being able to live up to expectations. He is really worthless, and his talents and learning are not as good as hers, let alone his nephew Jia Lan.Daiyu looked down on Baoyu from the bottom of her heart.

……

Before Xue's family arrived, Qian Xiaoqiao called Jia Zheng: "Your nephew has no father, so you have to teach him well. Baoyu's homework has only improved recently, so don't let anyone spoil it."

Jia Zheng bowed his head and nodded. In the past year, his mother has managed the Rong Mansion in an orderly manner, and the education of his children and grandchildren is very good.The day before yesterday, he inspected Baoyu's homework and found that his improvement in this year was better than his three years of teaching, so he had to admire his mother's ability.Now in Jia Zheng's heart, Jia's mother's words carry more weight.

Since Jia Zheng was obedient and obedient, Qian Xiaoqiao also followed suit.After she greeted Xue's family with a smile, she asked someone to set up a banquet.

The meals adhere to the consistent principle of simplification, small but delicate.Mrs. Wang was afraid of being laughed at by Aunt Xue, so she added extra food with her private money.

Qian Xiaoqiao didn't stop him either, no one would eat for free, anyway, it wasn't the Rong Mansion who paid for it.

After the meal, Aunt Xue asked Qian Xiaoqiao politely about his hobbies. Qian Xiaoqiao said he liked playing cards, and Aunt Xue clapped her hands and said she liked it too, and immediately started playing.

After one game, Aunt Xue lost, she smiled and said she wanted to ask someone to help her, and casually called Baoyu.Aunt Xue searched around the house with doubts, and was surprised to find that Baoyu was not there.

"He has to go to school in the afternoon." Qian Xiaoqiao explained the facts with a smile.

"Oh, it's a good thing that he is eager to learn. I'm really afraid that we will delay him when we come." Aunt Xue smiled innocently, and quickly changed her words to echo Jia Mu.

Qian Xiaoqiao smiled, thinking that Aunt Xue was interesting, but Xue Baochai's temperament is all-round and exquisite, so she inherited her mother's relationship.

Qian Xiaoqiao lost his mind just now, and the cards in his hand fell to the ground.Baochai was coming this way, and hurriedly picked up the cards before the maid.As soon as she bent down, the golden lock on her neck slid out.

Qian Xiaoqiao took the card to thank him, glanced at Jinsuo Wuxin, and smiled softly.

"She still wears this, what's the point?"

Aunt Xue was very surprised that Mother Jia would ask this question, and ignored Mrs. Wang's wink, she talked about the origin of Jinsuo and explained the verse behind Jinsuo.

"I heard that Baoyu also has a piece of jade, can you borrow it for us?" Aunt Xue said with a smile.

Qian Xiaoqiao grinned: "It's not a good thing, it was broken long ago."

Mrs. Wang thought that there was no jade, so she said that the two lines of poems on the jade would work, which happened to be a pair with Baochai's.As a result, Mother Jia said 'it's not a good thing', which completely choked her to death.

Qian Xiaoqiao looked on coldly at the two Wang sisters who were not looking well, and raised the corners of his mouth proudly: "Wang sisters, I'm so sorry, there has been no good marriage since I was here.

In the afternoon, because Qian Xiaoqiao was used to taking a nap, and Mrs. Wang was willing to have some private conversations with Aunt Xue, the two moved to Mrs. Wang's room to catch up on the old days. This conversation lasted for two hours. Seeing that it was getting dark, Mrs. Wang strongly invited Aunt Xue to live in Rongfu.

"I'm afraid I'll disturb the old lady's cleanliness." Aunt Xue smiled honestly, and she had some concerns about Jia Mu's attitude today.

Mrs. Wang would not lose face in front of her sister, and lied that Mother Jia also meant to keep her, so Aunt Xue should not worry.

Hearing what my sister said, Aunt Xue agreed with a smile.Mrs. Wang smiled and took her to Pear Fragrance Court for resettlement, and told her to live in peace of mind, no matter how long it took.

Xue Pan was reprimanded by his uncle Jia Zheng on the first day of his arrival, and he was not very refreshed. Before he entered Beijing, all his worries were answered.So he hurried to find his mother and urged her to move back to Xue's house in the capital.

"Anyway, our mother and I won't go back. If you want to move, you can move by yourself." Aunt Xue's handsome appearance flashed in Baoyu's mind, and she couldn't help being happy in her heart.Besides, Baoyu has a good temper, very steady, and knows how to love her daughter's family.

Xue Pan became more energetic, and quickly cut through the mess: "Okay! Move it!"

"You're crazy!" Aunt Xue didn't expect him to be serious, she quietly grabbed her son's sleeve and whispered, "Just bear it for your sister for a few days."...

Besides, Mrs. Wang boasted that she left her sister's family in Haikou, and she hadn't had time to tell Jiamu.She wandered along the way, and when she reached Jia Mu's house, she dared not enter.

Yuanyang came out to pass the meal, saw Mrs. Wang there, and said with a smile: "The old lady told you not to come here."

"I have something to do with her, how is she feeling now?" Seeing Yuanyang nodding, Mrs. Wang bravely entered the room, and then she saluted, and Jiamu, who was sitting on top, called her to sit down.

Qian Xiaoqiao was not surprised when Mrs. Wang explained that she had left Xue's home without permission, and nodded in agreement with squinted eyes.After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked Mrs. Wang: "Are there any good matchmakers in the capital?"

Where is the old lady going to sing?Do you want to propose marriage to Baoyu and Baochai, or to that Daiyu?

Mrs. Wang's heart trembled, but she didn't show it on her face. She pretended to be happy and replied: "The matchmaker Liu who lives in Plum Blossom Lane is the most famous. It’s a beautiful story that makes others envious! Grandpa, you suddenly asked about this?”

"It's nothing. I suddenly saw a girl from your sister's family today, and I remembered what happened."

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed, and asked with a smile, "Old Ancestor, what do you mean?"

"This daughter's family says she grows up really fast. It's time to think about her husband's family for Daiyu. Pick and choose, and she's almost at the age. If it's too late, you won't be able to find a good one."

"Ah, so that's how it is." Madam Wang was disappointed, and laughed, "She's not very old, so don't worry, Baochai is two years older than her, and my younger sister is not in a hurry."

"Nonsense, they came to Beijing to choose Baochai's servant. She will go to the palace in the future. Her path has already been chosen." Qian Xiaoqiao took Mrs. Wang's hand and said with enthusiasm: "Speaking of Baochai's selection, you have experience, and you should help your sister more. I will also ask someone to invite some old nuns from the palace to teach her the rules."

Mrs. Wang froze: "That's unnecessary, why should we bother with her family's affairs?"

"You're heretic, but that's your own sister, you should take care of it."

Qian Xiaoqiao solved all the problems in Rongfu one by one, and the rest is to urge Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng and others to follow the right path, supervise Baoyu and Jia Lan's studies, and manage Zhuangzi's property.These things are not achieved overnight, but must be developed slowly.

Qian Xiaoqiao took advantage of this time to do side missions to find a good home for Daiyu.

A blind date is a long road, and it was even more difficult in ancient times.If you want to be steady and ruthless, you must do your homework and be mentally prepared to find a needle in a haystack.

Qian Xiaoqiao did some calculations, from determining the target to investigating the target, to contacting the target, and finally promoting the marriage between the target and Daiyu, this process will take at least a year, and at most indefinitely.

There are some objective facts that you cannot deny, that is, some people belong to that type of life, who will never meet true love in their life.Of course, Qian Xiaoqiao would never allow Daiyu to encounter such a situation, simply because she didn't want to stay in this ghostly place and die of old age.

After Qian Xiaoqiao went to the Pear Fragrance Court and entered the two palace maids to monitor Baochai, he quickly recruited Liu Matchmaker to collect information about the children of the aristocratic families in the capital.She is not idle here, and writes to Lin Ruhai with a pen, focusing on three aspects: first, tell him to take care of his body, everyone knows that his body is notoriously weak in Dream of the Red Chamber; second, discuss Daiyu the marriage; thirdly let Lin Ruhai look for opportunities to work in Beijing.

After Qian Xiaoqiao arranged these, she conducted auditions from the information provided by Matchmaker Liu, and eliminated all those who were ugly, those with poor family background, those who were too high-born, and those whose family relationship was too complicated.Among them, the so-called too high birth refers to the fact that there are several county kings in Liu Matchmaker's information. In this era, the princes all have a small harem. The number is not limited, and this kind of royal life is obviously not suitable for Daiyu.

Qian Xiaoqiao selected six out of the 32 materials. Some of them were of similar family background, and some were of low family background but came from a scholarly family. Their ages ranged from 9 to 14 years old.Qian Xiaoqiao was divided into six groups, and spent half a year inquiring into the character of these people respectively. During this period, two who exposed their bad habits were brushed out, and the remaining four had one who was too dull and always bullied, so he was also excluded; There is also a cousin who lives in a sojourn, who tends to be a childhood sweetheart, and is listed by Qian Xiaoqiao as a candidate.The remaining two became Qian Xiaoqiao's key contacts. One was Tian Xi, the youngest son of Zhennan Marquis, and the other was Hou Tiansu, the eldest son of Hanlin University scholar Hou Chunmao.

Both of these two families are from a scholarly family, and they are proud of themselves, and have never made friends with people like Rongfu.After many twists and turns, Qian Xiaoqiao used the relationship between the old concubine and several imperial wives to contact the Tian family.The first time he saw Tian Xi, Qian Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt that he had found the right person.

[System: Congratulations to the player for correctly selecting the target. May I ask if the player has entered the side mission guidance mode? 】

Qian Xiaoqiao hadn't heard the system sound for a long time, and he missed it for some reason, so he quickly chose "Yes".
