every spring [comprehensive]

Chapter 139 The hairpin in the dowry 33

Mrs. Xue sighed to Baochai: "Now you have recognized Prince Yi Fu Jin as your godmother, and she has brought you into the palace to meet the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, which shows that she attaches great importance to you, and your future marriage may not be up to you." I'm in charge of my mother."

Xue Baochai said: "Look at what you said, no matter who you accept as a godmother, you can still surpass your own mother. You, it's better not to mourn the spring and hurt the autumn. It's the right thing to get rid of the younger sister now!"

Lin Daiyu said angrily, "Hum, look at my mother, my sister is here to tease me again!" She acted coquettishly and foolishly in front of Mrs. Xue, but she took the conversation away for a while, so as not to let Mrs. Xue get entangled in Xue Baochai's marriage.Baochai quietly gave Lin Daiyu an appreciative look, and Lin Daiyu smiled triumphantly.

Since coming to Xue's mansion, maybe the things in her heart have finally settled down, and Lin Daiyu is much more lively and comfortable than usual. In that way, when you think of sad things, you can't restrain yourself, leading to tears all day long.

On the Jia's side, ever since Jia Baoyu found out that Lin Daiyu was betrothed to him by his family, he was really in a state of mist, and the beauty was almost bubbling.No matter who he met, he always had a silly grin on his face.

During those few days in the school, Master Jia Dairu was even more puzzled, just because Jia Baoyu would not be downcast every time he came to school, but he would often be listless. He couldn't stop laughing, and the old scholar in the clan felt a little overwhelmed.

This marriage is certain, naturally some people are happy and some are worried, like the attacker in Jia Baoyu's house, not to mention how uncomfortable they are!She is considered to be the aunt Mrs. Wang decided to give to Jia Baoyu earlier, but after all, she is a side room that is not as good as the main room. She originally thought that if there was a good luck, Jia Baoyu would marry a tolerant and virtuous wife. Others can also follow suit.

Xiren was afraid of marrying Lin Daiyu to Jia Baoyu before, because everyone knew Lin Daiyu's temper, and if she didn't like her for a while, no one would dare to give her shame.Coupled with Jia Baoyu's obedience to Lin Daiyu's words, I am afraid that these concubines will have a bad life. Maybe this Daiyu will find a reason to punish them not long after she enters the house. told everywhere.

Jia Baoyu even forgets others when he has a younger sister, and he doesn't realize it at all.

Mrs. Wang thought about it, and she felt that she was not satisfied. She wanted to call Baoyu to ask a few words.When Jia Baoyu came to see Mrs. Wang, he naturally maintained that joy.When Mrs. Wang saw him smile, she smiled too: "What's so happy about it?"

Jia Baoyu said embarrassedly: "It's nothing special, there is only one big happy event this month, and my wife knows about it."

Mrs. Wang felt cold when she heard this, and said: "I'm still happy about the engagement, I'm going to tell you about your sister Lin!"

Jia Baoyu hurriedly asked: "What's wrong with Sister Lin? She's not used to living in Xue's house? I said that living in the Grand View Garden is good, but at worst I don't go there. Why do I have to go out to live with my aunt?" Home, we have avoided so far, even if there is a hot and cold place, our side can't know, what should we do!"

Mrs. Wang suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and said: "I just mentioned you, Sister Lin, how did you pick up these words? Who said that she didn't live well in Xue's residence? If your aunt knows what you said, I don't know how frustrating it is!"

Only then did Jia Baoyu realize that he had been reckless, and he bowed his head and apologized, "I said nonsense in a moment of impatience, mother, please don't pay attention to it, what do you want to tell me about Sister Lin?" After getting engaged to Daiyu, he only regarded Aunt Xue as his first benefactor.

Mrs. Wang originally planned to test Jia Baoyu's attitude towards this marriage, but she just saw his anxious look, so she had nothing to ask, so she said casually: "I want to tell you, after she gets married, you can get married. You can't just let you play around like before, but you have to supervise and remind you to study and improve."

Jia Baoyu quickly responded: "That's right, even if the wife doesn't tell you, I also know that after getting married, I will be an adult, and I can't be like before. Sages and sages say that this is the truth of self-cultivation, family governance, and world peace."

Mrs. Wang said a few more words, and sent him away. After he left, she couldn't stop sighing. Her son would be a typical example of having a wife and forgetting his mother.Originally, he thought that when his Baoyu married a daughter-in-law, he would put the power of housekeeping in the hands of his daughter-in-law again, but if Lin Daiyu was compared with Wang Xifeng, Wang Xifeng was more caring to her.

Xue Baochai became the adopted daughter of Prince Yi and his wife, and was personally summoned by the emperor, empress dowager. From the perspective of others, she was a blessing in disguise, and she flew up the branch and became a phoenix.Baochai's life at home has not been affected in any way, and it is no different from usual.

After Lin Daiyu arrived at Xue's Mansion, Baochai even took time out to accompany her every day, and accompany her through the uneasy period before marriage.

Lin Daiyu said: "To tell the truth from my sister, there was a time when people in Jia's mansion spread the word "golden jade marriage". Wearing a piece of jade, you are all gold and precious brothers and sisters that people put in the palm of your hand, so you have the energy to provide those gold and jade, only me, a grass and trees whose parents died early, are not welcome That's all. For a while, I alienated my sister because of this. Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't! After such a long time, I also realized the truth at that time. I think Baoyu is very good, but in the eyes of others, he is naturally It’s not that good, because it’s absolutely wrong for a Baoyu to spoil the heart of my wonderful sister!”

Xue Baochai half-jokingly said: "You can think of this level now, which shows that you have grown a lot, and not all the pink bubbles of love are in your mind! It can be seen that after the dust settles after the engagement, it makes people clear-headed .”

Lin Daiyu was very embarrassed, but she didn't care about it in front of Baochai, and said, "Sister, I see that my stepmother has been preparing some wedding supplies for me recently, and it costs a lot to think about it, because she has already left my business to her." You have a lot of heart, how can I let you spend money again." She took out the collection of poems that she never left, and handed it to Baochai, saying, "Sister, you and I are the only one who knows in this world, and I still have some money by my side. Even if it was left by my father back then, it’s useless to keep it by my side, so you can take it.”

Xue Baochai stood up and said, "You are all about to get married. You should change your temperament of treating money like dung. After you get married, you will know how hard life will be if you lose a penny. And you I have been in that mansion all the time, and I should know the current situation of Jia's mansion. There are money envoys everywhere in and out of the mansion. You only have the money left, so it is natural to use it wisely. The dowry is prepared for you, and there is no other money at home. How much is it? Since I was born, my mother has prepared everything when she sees the right things, so they are all ready-made for use, so put them away quickly!"

Lin Daiyu couldn't say no to her, so she had to put it away again, feeling even more grateful in her heart, the maid came to report that the second young lady had come to welcome the spring, and she was paying her respects to Mrs. Xue.So Baochai went to Mrs. Xue with Daiyu.Now the number of times Yingchun comes to Xue's mansion is much more frequent than going back to Jia's mansion, because her son-in-law is dissatisfied because she will be subject to control when returning to Jia's mansion. He was also willing to pay for her to bring some gifts with her, for fear of neglecting Shangguan.

Daiyu asked, "How is Second Sister doing? Has Second Brother-in-law improved?"

Yingchun sighed and said: "Compared to the time when I first got married, my life is much better now, but it's just for Brother Xue's face, he is a little more polite to me, don't mention the relationship between husband and wife, life is counted as a day. That's all."

In fact, there are naturally many grievances. For example, Sun Yaozu usually doesn’t give her the silver taels that she spends on a daily basis. She came in debt.

At this time, Jifang Building's monthly dividends helped her a lot. At the beginning, in Jia's mansion, she had food, clothing and relatives to rely on, but she didn't see the importance of having a property. Now Yingchun doesn't rely on this She doesn't know how to live with money, and it is even more impossible for her to go back to her mother's house for a married girl, and she can't open her mouth with her character, so she is even more grateful to Baochai for taking precautions.Since Sun Yaozu also wanted her to come to Xue Pan frequently, Yingchun was even more willing to come here. Later, she knew that even Tanchun had been hired by Xue Pan, and the two families became closer, only feeling closer.Now that Lin Daiyu is living in Xue's residence again, she has nothing to do and there is one more person to talk to, just like returning to the garden when she was not married.

On this day, Xue Pan came back and said: "The lady of Jia's family seems to be in a bad mood. When she went down to the court, she vaguely heard people say that today the higher-ups issued an order to let all her family members enter the palace to visit!" The visit after the hospital has declared that they are helpless is usually the last visit.

Mrs. Xue was very surprised and said: "Could you have heard wrong? Your cousin is not yet 40 years old, she should be very strong, and she was asked to visit the sick in the palace last time, your aunt She also whispered to me that her pulse is clearly a happy pulse, and the entire family in the Jia family is waiting for the news that she will give birth to a little prince or princess, so how could it be impossible to tell?"

Xue Pan said: "No mistake, there is only one concubine surnamed Jia in the Holy Mountain Palace. I think Jia's family is already in a mess this time."

Baochai said: "In this case, let's just know it first, and wait to see if the lady has any other news, or hide it from Daiyu first, she is delicate and prone to overthinking, and it may be useless to think too much at this time." , but to put an extra burden on herself."

Xue Pan said: "It's good for my sister to discuss this matter with my mother. I don't often see this sister Lin, so naturally I won't talk too much in front of her. It's just that I am a little worried about Tanchun, and I can't send someone to greet me personally. It is necessary Take advantage of my sister, go and deliver something to her, and inquire about her safety along the way."

Xue Baochai said: "Brother, don't worry, you know that there is such a thing. Although we don't need to go to the palace to say goodbye to your mother, the Jia family will send someone to greet you."

On that day, all the prefectures in the capital heard the news of Concubine Jia's death, so Mrs. Xue and Baochai sent people to visit Mrs. Wang and Tanchun in Jia's mansion respectively. The visitors came back and said: "There is an imperial order in Jia's mansion these days. Running to the palace, busy resigning mausoleum to thank you, etc., the third girl and the widowed Li Wan stayed in the mansion to take care of the family, so the third girl was not affected too much, but she was busier than before, although she looked sad But not too much.

What made Jia's family murmur the most was that Concubine Jia's posthumous title has not been issued for a long time. She has nothing to do in her life. Adding one or two words to the title, even if it is bestowed with mourning after death, but the emperor seems to have forgotten about her, and there is no posthumous title for a long time. What should have been a very grand funeral, unexpectedly hastily suspect.
