These girls from rich families, as long as they are a little more valued, they usually start to discuss marriage when they are about twelve or thirteen years old. After all, it takes time to find a good family, and they also need to consider unexpected situations, such as horoscope mismatches or other problems. It is not too early to start preparations two or three years earlier, and even those who love their daughters will start preparations earlier. I scratched and touched it thoroughly, just for fear that my girl's entrustment is not human.

But Yingchun is already 15 years old this year, the age at which most girls are about to get married, but she seems to have been forgotten, neither the old lady in the house nor her father and stepmother, no one mentioned it, and I don't know why Thought.

On this point, Wang Xifeng has some guesses, "After all, the empress in the palace is not fresh anymore. Whether it is for the sake of her children or to be a favorite, I am afraid that she wants to send another girl into the palace. Yingchun is now at the right age. When she is in the water, she is soft-tempered and easy to control, but she is the girl of the first wife...Although Tanchun is from the second wife, she has a much stronger temper than Yingchun, and she is more careful... The two sisters have their own personalities. The pros and cons, I am afraid that the old lady and my aunt have never thought about it, so they simply stay at home."

"What's this called?" Lin Daiyu sneered immediately after hearing this, "The men in the family don't make progress, and they know that they are drunk all day long, but they will force the girls to 'move up', which is really ridiculous! The world is so slippery Funny!"

Lin Mohan shook his head and sighed: "One counts as one, and as many as you send in, you have to take in as many as you want. Don't hurt the girls anymore."

Wang Xifeng said: "Yingchun is the girl of our eldest house, the elder can make the decision, but the old lady will not nod easily, and the elder has always been filial, so I am afraid he will not disobey the old lady. We have to think about it...Tanchun is a girl from the second room, but Xichun is a girl from the East Mansion, no matter what, it's not our turn to make decisions."

In fact, even if the Jia family collapses, those innocent girls will not be punished, but it will be difficult to marry into a good family after that time, at least the wives of the official family should not be considered.

But this is something that can't be helped. Marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words. It is impossible to go beyond other people's parents to do something, and Xichun is still young now, so she can't arrange it even if she wants to.

Lin Daiyu also understood this truth, no matter how worried she was, she had no choice but to press the button, and chatted with some pleasant gossip.

The three of them were holding tea, eating melons and fruits and chatting passionately, when they saw a woman come in and report, "Madam, Miss Xue has arrived."

Xue Baochai?

Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "Please come in quickly."

"You don't need to invite me, I have come uninvited."

I saw Xue Baochai walking in with a smile, followed by two people, one is the girl Yinger, and the other is Xiangling who was snatched home by the dumb king.

When Xue Baochai saw the two sisters of the Lin family, the smile on his face became more intense, "It's been a long time since I saw these two sisters, and it's so hard that I don't even dare to recognize them. I think they are fairies descending to earth."

Lin Daiyu raised her brows slightly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "Sister Bao secretly ate honey on the way here?"

Wang Xifeng took her hand and sat down, and said: "It's just in time for you to come, so I don't need to post another post. After ten days, you all remember to come and have a drink."

"What's the reason? Is there any happy event?"

"It's her happy event." Wang Xifeng pointed to the flushed Ping'er, and said, "I will arrange a drink for her in ten days, and she will be a serious aunt in the family in the future."

Lin Mohan was surprised, "Are you thinking about it?"

"Now that I'm pregnant, I have no time to take care of Lian Er, so I have to ask Ping'er to spend more time..." Wang Xifeng looked at Ping'er, and couldn't hide the sadness in her heart, and sighed: "Besides, Ping'er has followed me so much. In [-], she has already belonged to Lian Er, so it is appropriate to give her a proper status."

Taking a concubine for one's own man, who really doesn't care at all?The sour water in her heart couldn't stop pouring out, but she knew very well what kind of virtue her man was. Instead of letting him go out to find some stinky meat and make it embarrassing, it's better to ask Ping'er to take good care of him and take care of him. Although her son has been unknown for the past few years, she has been real, so it's not easy for her to be so vague all the time.

Ping'er's eyes were slightly red, "I will never forget the kindness my wife has treated me in my life. If I dare to betray my wife in the future, I will be struck by lightning and die!"

"Why are you saying that?" Wang Xifeng turned her head away, her eyes were a little red, "I know your character."

"Okay, okay, put it away soon, I know you two have a good relationship." Xue Baochai sighed again, "But I'm afraid I won't be able to come to have this glass of wedding wine."

Wang Xifeng asked, "How do you say that?"

Xue Baochai bowed her head in silence for a moment, and the smile on her face faded, "I applied for this year's election, and I have already been selected, and I will go to the palace to work as an errand in two days...but I don't know when I will go. Only then can I meet my sisters again..."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but after thinking about it, they felt that it was a reasonable choice.

Xue Baochai's high spirits are known to all the sisters. She was not satisfied with being married to Jia Baoyu in the first place, but her background doomed Qingyun's ambition to be difficult, and entering the palace would be a convenient way. After all, her appearance is indeed good. There are so many nobles in the palace, even if it is not easy to enter the emperor's harem, but if you are lucky, some empress will take a fancy to give it to elder brother.

Lin Mohan felt that the possibility of Xue Baochai being rewarded to a certain elder brother was still quite high. The first thing a lady considers when giving a woman to her son is not anything else, but whether to have a good child. Xue Baochai's figure is slightly plump, and her face The silver plate is exactly what everyone said at this time to be blessed and have a good birth, and it should be very attractive to the elders.

I just hope that Xue Baochai will not be assigned to the Yonghe Palace, otherwise, if Concubine De knows Xue Baochai's identity, she will most likely send someone into the backyard of the fourth elder brother to dissuade her.

"You really kept it a secret, but you never heard any rumors before." Wang Xifeng blamed.

Xue Baochai just smiled and said nothing.

Don't hide it from death to death, let the Mrs. Wang know about it, and it will definitely add more twists and turns.

"I came here today because I still have something to ask Sister Feng for help."

"Go ahead."

Xue Baochai showed a faint smile, and said: "My brother is not too young. He still hangs around like this every day, and he talks about getting married and starting a business. My mother wants to marry a daughter-in-law and come back to take care of him... The sweet-scented osmanthus summer The family is also a well-known imperial merchant, and our family can be regarded as a close match, so my mother is very close... But this marriage is not only based on family background, I think character is the most important thing, but unfortunately I am about to enter the palace. You also know about your temper, so you don't need to mention it, I'm just afraid that they will get married in a daze before they figure out anything, and it will be too late if there is anything wrong."

"Sister Feng has always been a smart person, and no one can fool you easily, so I licked my face and begged Sister Feng to help find out about the girl from the Xia family..." Xue Baochai pursed her lips, her expression full of worry, "This time I Entering the palace, I don't know what the future will be like, let alone when I can reunite with my relatives. The most worrying thing is my family... my brother is a homeless man, and my mother is soft-tempered. I have never had an idea. No, I'm afraid mother's life will be difficult."

Wang Xifeng has always been a person who is easy to deal with. After hearing this, she immediately held Xue Baochai's hand and said, "Don't worry, sister, I will definitely find out about this matter. Your mother is also my real aunt. Can you not take a second look? Just rest assured."

Lin Mohan raised her eyebrows in surprise, and now she has entrusted Wang Xifeng to inquire about the girl from the Xia family. I am afraid that the marriage is really pending. The fate should not be so miserable, right?

But having said that, Xue Pan himself is not stingy, even without the Hedong lion, Xiangling probably wouldn't be much better off, with Xue Baochai watching it would be better, and when Xue Baochai enters the palace, only Aunt Xue How can the doting temperament control the dumb bully?What will happen to Xiangling is yet to be known, I just hope that the Feng family will come to recognize their mother and daughter sooner after receiving the letter, and whether to leave or stay at that time depends entirely on Xiangling's own wishes.

I don't know if the Xue family hid it too well, or if the Jia family really didn't hear anything out of the window. Mrs. Wang didn't hear about it until Xue Baochai went to the palace, and she was so angry that she smashed the whole thing immediately. tea set.

"I knew she was ambitious! No, I can't let her stay in the palace, I have to expose her brother's affairs!" Mrs. Wang was angry and anxious, after all, Xue Baochai was also her favorite candidate for daughter-in-law Regardless of her family background, she is really impeccable in other aspects, and she is ten years younger than Yuan Chun!

Yu Chuan'er hurriedly persuaded: "Think twice, madam! Once this matter gets out, the Xue family will not be the only ones to suffer. Why is madam in a hurry to hurt the enemy by one thousand and self-damage eight hundred? Then Miss Bao is just a court lady now." However, the Empress is already a high concubine, and it is not easy to deal with her, so there is no need for Madam to worry so much."

Remembering Xue Baochai's threat last time, Mrs. Wang also died down for a while.

Indeed, once the matter got out, Wang Ziteng, who helped Xue Pan take care of the matter at the beginning, would have to follow suit.

Mrs. Wang was silent, sitting on the kang with a gloomy expression.

At this moment, I heard a slave shouting outside: "My wife is overjoyed! Just now there was news from the palace that the emperor took pity on the pain of the separation of the mothers and daughters, and not only allowed the family to come to the palace to gather on the [-]th day of every month, but also said, For those who have other homes in the family, allow Niang's mother's family to visit relatives!"

"Really?" Mrs. Wang was overjoyed.

At the same time, the old lady who also got the news suddenly became happy, and the family quickly gathered together and began to discuss the matter of proposing a family home.

Mrs. Wang opened her mouth and said: "The provincial house is built with a lower standard than the royal house..."

"What the hell?" Jia Amnesty was overjoyed, "How dare you say it! Where's the money? You pay for the money?"

Mrs. Wang's face froze, "It's the honor of the whole family to visit your relatives. Our family is of flesh and blood. We should work together to make this matter well... Now that your mother is an imperial concubine, she represents the face and dignity of the royal family. If our family Neglect, that is a loss of royal dignity, how can there be good fruit then?"

Jia Amnesty had a rascal face on his face, and sneered, "So what if there is no good fruit to eat? After all, my son and grandson were all forced away by you, and this Rong Mansion has become your second wife. Whether it is good or bad is none of my business." ? Anyway, I’m going to leave the conversation here today. How you want to build the provincial house is your business. I don’t care about it. The only thing is to divide the family property in advance, and no one wants to touch my share!”

"Boss!" Mother Jia glared at him, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not dead yet, and you two want to shake the world?"

"Whatever you want to say, in short, that's what I say, it's fine if you don't want to divide the family property, then don't build any family homes. If you dare to use a copper coin that belongs to me to build Naoshizi's family homes, I will Just beat the drums and sue her!" Jia She pointed at Mrs. Wang with a sinister smile.

Mrs. Wang's complexion changed drastically.

"Jia Amnesty!" Jia's mother was furious, "You really want to do this? The first room and the second room are both damaged and prosperous. Even if Lian'er and the others are separated, they will still be the descendants of Jia's family. Naturally, when the mother is well, they will also have big children. Good thing, why do you have to do this?"

Jia Amnesty rolled his eyes, "Pull it down quickly, it would be good if the second wife didn't come and hurt our first wife if she became powerful, and still want to gain fame? Dreaming will come sooner! Old lady, you don't have to hang a carrot in front of me to coax me , anyway, I don't want to take advantage of my mother, and you don't want to take advantage of me. I, Jia She, have been a bastard all my life. You really pissed me off. I don't know what bastard things I can do. I hope you think twice Then go ahead." Then he scolded Mrs. Xing, "Still sitting here waiting to be sold and help count the money? Go back to the house with me!"

Staring at his back, the old lady and Mrs. Wang were both frustrated, they really didn't dare to stop him, who knows what absurd things he would do with such a stingy bastard?What if he got really anxious and the net was broken... Since the incident last time, this bastard has become more and more devoid of family ties, and even the old lady dare not say that she can handle him.

"Forget it, think about it again, it really won't work..." Let's divide the family property first, but in this way, it will be even more difficult to build a family home.

Thinking of the predicament at home, even the joy of mother-in-law's visiting relatives faded for a while. Where can I get such a large sum of money?

On the first day of the next month, Mrs. Wang dressed up early and rode a carriage towards the palace. She got off the carriage at the gate of the palace, and the long-awaited sedan chair carried her to Jingyang Palace.

Mrs. Wang was extremely proud, and felt more and more that the empress was really favored.

Counting carefully, the mother and daughter hadn't seen each other for ten years, and now that they were reunited again, they held hands and looked at each other's tears, and cried a lot.

"Although I know that you have become a concubine, life will not be bad, but after all, I haven't seen each other for ten years. I am always worried. Now that I see it with my own eyes, I am completely at ease." Mrs. Wang kept talking. Wiping away tears, he just stared at Jia Yuanchun, as if he couldn't get enough of it.

Jia Yuanchun was even more moved when he heard the words, and couldn't help crying, "My daughter is not filial, and failed to serve her mother and grandmother..." He asked whether his father, grandmother, Baoyu and other people in the family were well.

Mrs. Wang came with her one by one, and when they only talked about the big house, she couldn't help but gritted her teeth and said, "You don't know what kind of bastard your uncle is now. Don't touch a copper coin that belongs to him..."

Jia Yuanchun frowned slightly, and said: "It's fine, there is no need to build a family home."

Mrs. Wang was stunned, "How can it be done? Without the mother-in-law of the other courtyard, I can't go home to visit my relatives."

Jia Yuanchun pursed her lips, she always felt that this was not a good thing, but she didn't know where to start, so she was silent for a while and could only say: "If you want to build it, you can do it, just don't be extravagant and wasteful, and don't need to be extravagant."

Mrs. Wang's expression clearly disapproved, and she wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jia Yuanchun, "Mother, tell me honestly, what happened to Lian'er and the others? Why did mother act so foolishly?" What's up?"

"You really wronged me to death, I really didn't do that!"

Jia Yuanchun was stunned, "Really?"

"You are my own, what did I lie to you for? I really don't know where that doll came from..."

Jia Yuanchun's face darkened slightly, thoughtful, "Does mother know what Lian'er and the others are doing now?"

"It seems that I heard that Lin Ruhai found a seventh-rank official for him. I really laughed to death. If you don't want it in Rongfu, you ran out to get a sesame official to do it. Then Lin Ruhai is really a dignified first-rank official. Give it to yourself. My nephew has only become a seventh-rank official, so I don't think it's shabby!"

Mrs. Wang was still chattering, but Jia Yuanchun seemed to have fallen into the ice cellar. Her guess seemed to be verified. The Jia family... I'm afraid it's really going to be bad.

Jia Lian must have defected to Uncle Lin's family early on, and was lucky enough to get Uncle Lin's advice, but... Uncle Lin's family knew something bad was going on, but why didn't he want to mention something at home?Why only mention Jia Lian alone?And Jia Lian, the same descendants of the Jia family, got the news but only cared about running for their own lives, while the rest of the family didn't care...

For a while, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help feeling resentment in his heart, resentment towards the Lin family, resentment towards Jia Lian and his wife.

Looking at the beaming mother, Jia Yuanchun wanted to say something, but when he glanced at the nurse next to him, he lost his words in an instant, leaving only bitterness in his mouth and panic in his heart.

Mrs. Wang babbled for a long time, and seeing her daughter kept silent, she couldn't help losing interest, thinking that her daughter didn't like to listen to these gossips, so she changed the subject and talked about Jia Baoyu's recent situation.

Jia Yuanchun was still very concerned about this younger brother, but he became more interested and asked, "How is Baoyu studying? What have you learned?"

Mrs. Wang's complacent expression suddenly froze, and she said uncomfortably: "Baoyu is still young, so play more seriously..." Seeing Jia Yuanchun frowning and wanting to preach, Mrs. Wang preemptively said, "Don't talk about that evil, but Ma'am, has your stomach ever moved?"

Jia Yuanchun lowered her eyes, she spent quite a lot of time in bed, and the emperor never rewarded her with soup, but her stomach never moved, and she was also very anxious, especially seeing that Jia's family was about to suffer, she was even more urgent. If you want a child, you might be able to save your family by pointing at the dragon fetus.

"Your Majesty, it's time." The nurse next to her reminded her softly.

Both mother and daughter were red-eyed, but the rules are like this, no matter how reluctant they are, they had to say goodbye with tears in their eyes.

Before leaving, Mrs. Wang suddenly remembered something, "Xue Baochai has also entered the palace. She is very ambitious and has a good appearance. You have to be careful."

Xue Baochai...

Jia Yuanchun sat quietly and meditated for a long time, then called to hold the piano, and whispered: "Go and find a way to get the word into the ears of Concubine De, and say that the new maid named Xue Baochai is a good sister of Miss Lin's family."

Baoqin frowned slightly, and went down in response.

Holding a cup of tea in his hand, Jia Yuanchun was lost in a daze.

She was not afraid that Xue Baochai would threaten her. Now that she was in such a situation, what future did she have?What threats are you afraid of?She just couldn't help being resentful, hating that the Lin family's uncle knew the crisis was coming but stood idly by the family, so she wanted to use Concubine De's hand to send Xue Baochai to the fourth elder brother's backyard, so as to disgust Lin Mohan.

As expected, Concubine De was really interested when she heard the news, she immediately sent someone to say hello, and made an appointment for Xue Baochai.

Qiuwen couldn't help worrying, "What if the two of them are sisters and they work together to fight against other people?"

Concubine De sneered, "A good young lady insists on entering the palace to serve people, so it can be seen that she is also an ambitious thing. I don't believe that she doesn't want to fight."

Rao Lin Mohan himself was afraid that he would never have imagined that he didn't know when he gave birth to a crow's mouth, a spirit that was good but not good.

After more than half a month, the person who often came to the house to eat dinner finally reappeared. Seeing that he moved freely and swiftly, I felt relieved.

"How did you do it? Why did you get fined if you were doing well?"

Yinzhen smiled helplessly, "It's also because I have too many things to do, and I insisted on giving some gifts when I have nothing to do, but after tossing for a long time, I ended up giving something that didn't meet people's wishes."

Lin Mohan frowned, there was indeed something wrong with this Concubine De, and she was not seriously ill.

"What did the imperial doctor say? Have you ever hurt a bone?"

"If you're worried, why don't you go to the paddock and I'll get on a horse and show you?"

Lin Mohan's eyes lit up, "Are you going to let the wind go again?"

Seeing her like this, the smile in Yinzhen's eyes became softer, "I know you're always looking forward to it, but this time it's not just the two of us... The two demon kings, old nine and old ten, probably heard it from old eight." I got the letter, and it has been a long time since I have to follow, but I am really annoyed by them."

Lin Mohan was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it, these elder brothers are still young now, so there is no enmity, and the brothers should still get along well.

"I originally planned to take my sister for a release..."

"It's okay, let's go out to play together, and there's no need to be so strict."
