[Red House] The Twins of Purple Pearls

When Shi Taijun learned that Jia Min was going to marry his daughter to Shi Jin, he was both happy for his granddaughter and also a little sad.

Brother Jin is now promising, and her grandnephew is going to marry her granddaughter.Before, Shi Taijun thought about letting Baoyu marry his aunt's cousin, so that Baoyu could get help from the Yue family, and the cousin would not be bullied by her mother-in-law like marrying someone else's family.

It's just that whether it is Yanyu or Daiyu who is married to Shi Jin now, the other will not marry into Jia's family again.

Since his granddaughter could not be a granddaughter-in-law, Shi Taijun called Jia Min to go to the mansion to discuss with her about marrying the Shi family after much deliberation.

Jia Min guessed Shi Taijun's intentions, so she took Yanyu and Daiyu there as usual, leaving Yan'er at home to study with her husband.

Shi Taijun and Jia Min talked in the main room and sent their sisters to play with Sanchun.

Baochai was leading the maidservants to play with fish by the waterside pavilion, and when they met a group of them coming, they sat down and rested in the pavilion.

"I haven't seen Sister Yu for a long time." Baochai sat down next to Daiyu and said with a smile.

"How is Sister Bao recently?" Daiyu asked.

"It's just learning the rules from the mother-in-law," Baochai said.

Xue's family came to Beijing to prepare for Baochai's selection as an accompanying female official, and the official selection of female officials will begin in the early spring of next year;

Knowing the situation of Xue's family, Daiyu said, "I wish Sister Bao her wish will be fulfilled." After a pause, she pretended, "But if I want to see Sister Bao again in the future, it will be difficult."

Although Baochai knew that it would be difficult to be selected as an accompanying female official, she couldn't help but hope that if she was lucky enough to become an accompanying female official and leave the palace after three years, she would be incomparable even to ordinary official girls identity.

Thinking of this, Baochai became even more motivated.

"Sister Bao, sister Yu, what are you talking about?" Tanchun looked back and saw Baochai and Daiyu talking near the waterside pavilion, and asked with a smile; Just two sentences."

But she didn't see Yanyu in the pavilion, Tanchun sensed Daiyu's eyes and told her: "The fourth younger sister took Yanyu to her room to look at the paintings just now."

Because Xichun Youxi took Yanyu to look at the paintings, Daiyu didn't feel anything wrong.

Yanyu and Xichun walked under the shade of the tree, the faint light fell on them through the shade of the tree, if there were mottled spots of light.

"What paintings have you drawn recently?" Yanyu asked Xichun.

"I just drew a few random pictures, and I think the paintings are not good." Xichun looked at the green color of the willows, with a lonely expression, and asked Yanyu casually, "Sister Yan, I heard from Lian's second sister-in-law that my aunt It seems that he intends to marry the historian's third cousin? Now that Cousin Jin is on the gold list, the historian is coming to propose marriage."

Yanyu suddenly heard this, and wondered: "Is this what Lian's second sister-in-law said?" Thinking of the frequent encounters between her mother and the Zhuang family's cousin and aunt recently, she felt that it was not a lie; when it came to the important matter of marriage, it only needed two elders to invite the elders. The media discusses relatives, and the Qin and Jin Dynasties are good.

Xichun nodded with certainty: "Yesterday, Mrs. Xiangpinghou came to the mansion and said that she wanted to tell her niece from her natal family to Cousin Jin, and asked the old ancestor to be the matchmaker. Hearing that the old ancestor declined Mrs. Xiangpinghou, Said that Cousin Jin's mother had already talked about marriage for him before his death."

"I don't know very well, and I haven't heard from my mother." Yanyu hesitated for a moment and said.

In fact, after hearing Xichun mention this matter, Yanyu has already gone through the matter of getting married in her heart.

Since Jia Min hasn't made it clear to their sisters yet, it's obvious that the marriage has not been finalized yet.But if it is said that Shi Jin's mother had already arranged a marriage with her before she was alive, why had she never heard of it before?

So far, when she hears Shi Jin's name, what Yanyu thinks of is not the proud Xinke Tanhualang, but the gloomy boy in white clothes she met that night when she followed Mu Yun to the imperial mausoleum.

Does father know that Shi Jin still has contact with the lineage of Dong'an County King?Or maybe there are many causes and effects that she doesn't know about?

Xichun came out to talk with Yanyu alone for a while by looking at the painting, and then turned back to the pavilion with Yanyu.

"Fourth Sister and Sister Yan are back." Tanchun saw them from a distance with sharp eyes, and said to Daiyu with a smile.

Seeing her younger sister and Baochai sitting close to each other, Yanyu calmed down a little, then went around quietly and sat down on the other side of Daiyu, passed Daiyu and talked to Baochai seemingly unintentionally: "Look at my house. Yu'er likes Sister Bao very much, and I'm so envious!"

Hearing her inexplicable and sour words, Daiyu turned her head and said softly, "Sister!"

Yanyu took Daiyu's hand and stroked it silently, while continuing to talk to Baochai: "Sister Bao doesn't know. My Yu'er is a boring gourd at home, and she can't say a few words when playing chess with her." ;It was only after seeing Sister Bao that I opened up the conversation, perhaps it is Sister Bao who is knowledgeable and talented.”

Daiyu heard her sister's increasingly outrageous remarks, and she didn't know when she would become a boring gourd like her second cousin?I don't know what kind of medicine is in my sister's gourd.

Xichun used the round fan to hide the smile on her face, as if she heard something very interesting.

"Sister, how can you bury me like this." Daiyu whispered to Yanyu coquettishly, Yanyu still held Daiyu to talk to Baochai, as if she would disappear if she let go.

After returning to Shi Taijun's courtyard in the afternoon, Nanny Lai said that the old lady was still talking to her aunt and told the girls to go back and rest first.

After closing the door in the room, Yanyu calmed down instead, she still needs to ponder over what she heard from Xichun.

Yiyan served snow bud tea for Daiyu to drink, seeing the elder sister's eyebrows tightening, she became more and more puzzled: "Sister, what's the matter? Did something happen?"

"Let Jin Qing go out and find out when I go back." Yanyu only said.

Seeing her sister's inscrutable expression, Daiyu was puzzled.

Shi Taijun talked to Jia Min in the front room, and asked her for an idea: "Next year, the second girl in the family will reach the age. It's just that your elder brother is a jerk, and Xing's family is incomprehensible, so the second girl will be delayed for a long time." No. I can't take care of so many things anymore, you are outside now, and you happen to be watched by the second girl; you don't want to be rich, as long as you can live a stable life."

Jia Min is now also taking care of her daughter. Hearing what Shi Taijun said, she immediately responded: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely see a good family for my second niece."

Shi Taijun nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "You have made a decision for my sister as soon as possible. Whether it is Sister Yan or Sister Yu, I cherish it very much, and I hope they can be well. I am afraid You haven't made a decision yet, but the Wen family has already made up their minds, and it will be difficult for you when the time comes."

"Fortunately, my mother reminded me that I will go back and discuss with the master." Jia Min agreed.

However, it was too late. Before Jia Min mentioned this matter to Lin Ruhai, Mrs. Zhongjinghou came to propose marriage with great fanfare, and invited her natal Mrs. Wen Er to be the big matchmaker.

Mrs. Wen Er sat in the hall with Jia Min with a smirk and said: "Mrs. Zhongjinghou asked me to be a male matchmaker, and she proposed marriage to the second girl in your house. The second girl is gentle and kind. Madam thinks that she can be with her." A son is a good match."

"Madam is asking my second daughter to marry me?" Jia Min looked shocked, and Shi Taijun's worries came true, "My eldest daughter has not yet made an appointment, how can the second younger sister make an appointment before the elder sister? Ma'am I really failed to respond to what was mentioned, which is not in compliance with the rules."

The Lin family has two daughters. Although Yanyu and Daiyu are siblings, they are different in temperament and appearance. Now the historian has appointed Daiyu to be married, but they don't know what their intention is; how dare Jia Min accept it easily.

Fortunately, when Mrs. Wen Er first arrived, Jia Min asked Mammy Liu to report to Zhuang Shishi at the dealer's house. She was fighting with Mrs. Wen Er, and Zhuang Shishi also came over after hearing the news.

Mrs. Wen Er seemed to have guessed that Jia Min would refuse in this way, so she chuckled and said: "Mrs. I am not willing to marry my daughter so early, and want to wait until the girl is old enough to become a big gift, but our brother is already weak. Master Hou and his wife are sympathetic to his wife's love for daughters, so they agreed. The girl will come back to marry after she reaches Ji. The second girl has made a marriage agreement, and we will marry the eldest girl when she finds her husband's family to leave the court in the future, which is not considered a violation of the rules."

Although these words are suspected of being unreasonable, but there are indeed people in the capital who act like this, and it is not impossible.

"What the second wife said is reasonable. Then let me discuss it with my master again, and I will definitely give my wife and Mrs. Wen a satisfactory answer." Jia Min could only force a smile and said.

"That's fine." Wen Er's wife smiled eccentrically, and then she seemed a little reluctant to say, "Our eldest son is Xinke Tanhualang, so there are many people in the capital who want to be the daughter-in-law of the Shi family." Because Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin have an alliance of in-laws, our wife rejected all other marriage proposals; but no matter how good the girl of the Lin family is, she is not at the same age as our son, and our wife, Mrs. Hou, also obeyed. It's the meaning of my wife."

This time, Jia Min understood that Mrs. Wen Er's claim that the relationship was fake was probably the truth by deliberately finding fault.

As Mrs. Wen Er said, if it weren't for the half-true agreement with Princess Qingdu and Zhuang Shi's efforts to match her two daughters, there are countless people who want to marry her, so why bother to go to the court? The muddy waters in Jinghou Mansion, but it was said as if their girl couldn't get married and begged to be married to their Zhongjinghou Mansion.

Just as Jia Min was about to speak, she heard Liu Mama hurried in to report: "Madam, Mrs. Zhuang is here!"

Then I saw Zhuang Shishi coming in from outside the house with an unsuspecting expression, glanced at Mrs. Wen Er coldly, snorted, and said, "Who am I? Come to find fault, so that you can cancel this marriage so that Brother Jin can marry your niece? I have to ask my third brother and tell him what Mrs. Wen said." Wei Dun added, "Besides, Qingdu back then My sister-in-law entrusted me to take care of this marriage, and my brother also entrusted me to be the big matchmaker, why did Mrs. Wen Er bypass me and come directly to propose marriage?"
