Xia Jingui of the Red Chamber

Mrs. Xia was also very satisfied with her expression. Xia Jingui withdrew her hand from the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and said to Xia San: "That's what I said when I was young and ignorant. What kind of Chang'e flower is not afraid of people's jokes when I say it. Sweet osmanthus."

Mrs. Xia looked at Xia Jingui in shock, and Xia Jingui had already put her arms around Mrs. Xia's arm and said coquettishly: "Mother, Daddy named me Jingui, which means that I am the most precious osmanthus in the Xia family. In this case, I Changing the name to Chang'e Flower, wouldn't it be a disappointment to my father?"

Hearing Xia Jingui mention Mr. Xia, Mrs. Xia's tears fell again, and she choked up and said, "Your father wants to know that you are so sensible at the moment, and you don't know how to be relieved? How much did you and your father have to fight because of this name?" The famine still tortured your father in the end, so it was called Chang'e flower. Now, you know your father's painstaking efforts, and mother is really happy in her heart."

It turned out that Xia Jingui was really a brat at that time, Xia Jingui stuck out his tongue quietly, looking at the yard, the new house, the new beginning, everything in the past would be turned into clouds of smoke, and he had to work hard to make his future road wider and clearer. wide.As soon as the ambition was filled, the housekeeper said to Xia San respectfully: "Third Master, since you and your wife and aunts like this house, then I will go to make an appointment with someone, and ask Third Master to come over and press your fingerprint."

Hey, in this damn feudal society, women are just objects, but some are luxury goods, some are daily necessities, and some are from two-dollar stores.Otherwise, with the characters and appearances of all the Fangs in the Red Chamber, they would not have to be trapped in their respective small courtyards.

During the inspection of the Grand View Garden, what Tanchun said was blood and tears, but any man can really walk away and make a difference instead of watching the family decline, powerless, and even follow him. Be buried together.

"Sister, look, this house is rented." Xia San happily ran over with the contract in hand. Xia Jingui hurriedly put away her thoughts and took the contract from Xia San. Mrs. Xia glanced at it and clicked her tongue twice. Sheng: "This house in Beijing is really not cheap. It costs 20 taels of silver a month."

"Mother, when the brothers and daughters-in-law pass through the door, and the brothers start their business again, you will move into a bigger house." Xia Jingui's words comforted Mrs. Xia a little, but thinking about it again made it even worse. Sighed, 20 taels of silver, when I celebrated my birthday, a table of banquets cost more than that, but now I think it is too expensive.

Xia San couldn't understand the meaning of Xia Jingui's mother and daughter's words. He rubbed his hands together, looked at the new house, and thought of marrying a daughter-in-law, couldn't stop his smile.

Well, I can't make Sam Xia too happy and forget about other things.Xia Jingui comforted Mrs. Xia, and when she turned around to see San Xia there, Xia Jingui frowned slightly and said to the housekeeper, "I have brought the account books, so I would like to ask the housekeeper which accounts are easy to collect. Bill received."

"To say it's easy to collect, the best thing to collect is the account of the batch of sweet-scented osmanthus saplings sent to the palace the year before last. This account has actually been hung up for two years, and it should have been collected long ago." The housekeeper didn't even look at the account book. , Open your mouth is such a sentence.Sure enough, no matter when, such an account is the best to collect, of course, it may be the most difficult to collect.

Sure enough, the butler said again: "However, this account is probably the most difficult to collect. After all, it has been two years, and the person who handled it at the beginning may not be there anymore. I just want to say that it was done by my predecessor, we don't know, then..."

The housekeeper didn't finish his sentence, but Xia Jingui fully understood what he meant. Sure enough, when the time came, this habit of making IOUs would still not stop.Xia Jingui nodded slightly: "As expected, you are very understanding. However, I think business is always done by people. Even if the person who handled it at the beginning is gone, let's talk to the person who is in charge of this now, and be careful. Flattery, I always kowtow on my birthday."

Xia Jingui's words made the housekeeper look at her with admiration. This aunt took some medicine, and she became enlightened immediately. I remember that when this aunt was at home, she also took care of housework for a period of time. Seeing the account of going to drink and sing with the eunuchs, That face was so dark that water dripped down, and he kept saying that he would use the Xia family's money to fill the pits of these people.At this moment, he took the initiative to kowtow, it was too...

Thinking about it this way, the butler's tone became more gentle: "My aunt is so transparent, so the little ones can do things easily. Back then, when the elder master was alive, and when the second master was temporarily in charge, every year, holidays, and birthdays, I would personally In the past, I kowtowed to several old grandpas. Although the old grandpas often refused to accept them, they smiled very kindly when they saw the elder master and the second master. With this kind smile, things are much easier to handle."

"These old grandpas are Xia Dujian?" Xia Jingui tried hard to recall, and finally remembered the eunuchs mentioned in the Dream of the Red Chamber. The housekeeper looked at Xia Jingui in surprise and said, "In addition to Master Xia, there is also Master Yang, Chen The master waits for the masters to go there."

Speaking of which, the housekeeper frowned again: "However, Auntie, you are now married to the Xue family. The Xue family is related to the Jia family. I'm afraid..."

Xia Jingui understands, I'm afraid I'll have to look for Sister Feng for this matter. If you want to say that Jia Lian and Sister Feng are really a perfect match in the Dream of the Red Chamber, they both love money and have the same means. If there is a difference, it is Jia Lian. And the bottom line, he is just lustful and greedy for money, he is a typical dude.As for Sister Feng, she is a woman that people love and hate at the same time. They both want to get close and feel that it is better to stay away from her.After all, watching someone die for three thousand silver, regardless of ancient or modern times, is still very bottomless.

Seeing Xia Jingui thinking there, the butler didn't say anything, just waiting for Xia Jingui to speak.Sure enough, Xia Jingui smiled and said, "I understand. I'll ask Second Grandma Lian about this matter. They have been dealing with the palace all year round."

"That's the best." The housekeeper's words made Xia Jingui smile again, because he just didn't have the chance to meet this Second Mistress Lian, ah, this is a great opportunity.

After the house was settled, the date of moving was fixed. According to Xia Jingui's intention, there was no need to choose a date for the move, just move here.But these words did not make sense to the ancients. Mrs. Xia saw that the house was settled, and she wanted to find someone to calculate the auspicious day of moving, and she had to pack her things. There is no moving company these days, and it's only a matter of calling someone else.

Therefore, Xia Jingui had to keep Mrs. Xia busy, and Mrs. Wei was going to make an appointment. According to Mrs. Xia's intention, the two things of moving and marrying a wife should be done together, so that it would be lively.Moving house and need a big treat?Xia Jingui was intimidated by Mrs. Xia's proposal, and hurriedly stopped her, saying that if it took a day to do it, it would seem too disrespectful to the new wife, and she should move first and marry the wife later.Because the days of the two are close, moving is not a big treat.

Anyway, Mrs. Xia reluctantly agreed. Xia Jingui persuaded her mother, and told the housekeeper that she would go back to see Sister Feng first. After explaining everything, Xia Jingui took Baochan and left.

As soon as he got in the car, Baochan brought a cup of tea: "Grandma, you've been busy this morning, so you haven't even drank tea, so moisten your throat."

Baochan didn't say that Xia Jingui hadn't noticed that his throat was a little sore, he took a sip of the tea, and before handing back the teacup to Baochan, suddenly something hit the carriage, and the carriage shook like that, Xia Jingui almost rolled out of the carriage.

Baochan next to Kui hugged Xia Jingui, but the cup of tea spilled all over the carriage.Baochan didn't have the temperament to suffer, so he raised the curtain and said to the outside: "Which company can't do things, why do you just bump into someone else's carriage?"

A man who looked like a servant hurriedly stopped the horse, and bowed his hands to Baochan repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't hold my master's horse." The young man who was sitting immediately said to Baochan: "I'm sorry, I don't often ride horses, and now the horse ran too fast, and the boy ran into it without stopping."

Baochan saw that the man on the horse was young and handsome, he didn't look in his twenties, and he didn't look like an ordinary person in his clothes, so his arrogance first dropped a little, and then he pouted his lips: "It's a trivial matter to hit the carriage, it scares us Grandma, that's the big deal." The young man repeated his apologies again and again.

Xia Jingui listened to what Baochan and the young man had to say in the carriage, and quietly pulled up the curtain to look out. He saw the man sitting on the horse. Bad health dude.Xia Jingui has always had a bad impression of such a person, and now his affection has dropped to the bottom.

I'm afraid that this person said sorry because he saw that the carriage he hit was a bit gorgeous. If it was really a simple carriage of common people, he might think that the carriage blocked his horse's way.Xia Jingui made a bad judgment on the young man in his heart, so he pulled Baochan's sleeve: "Baochan, don't tell anyone, we have to hurry to see Second Mistress Lian."

Baochan put down the curtain of the car, glared at the man, and beckoned the coachman to drive the car to Rongguo Mansion.The man waited for the Xue family's carriage to leave, and then said to the boy: "You, you have caused trouble again."

The boy was about to cry: "Master, everyone said that you are not in good health, you don't need to ride a horse, but you prefer to ride a horse. Is something wrong now?" The young man coughed and asked the boy to pull his horse again. Get up: "You talk too much, let's go, or father will find out and scold me again."

The boy smiled and pulled the horse back, and said to the young man, "My lord, that maid just now is really handsome, better than ours..."

Before he finished speaking, the boy took a whip on his head: "I'm ashamed to say that you were the one who saw the girl just now, and that's why I bumped into the carriage." The boy put his hands on his head, laughed again, and said nothing.

☆, Rongguo Mansion

Xia Jingui didn't take this matter to heart. Originally, Xia Jingui could go directly to Rongguo Mansion from a small alley where the Xue family lived. in front of the gate.Although the owner of Rongguo Mansion is being impeached recently, the front door is still very lively, welcome and send off.

Xia Jingui watched in the car for a while before ordering Baochan to hand over the film. Baochan was very surprised by Xia Jingui's behavior, but obediently obeyed the order, got out of the car and took the film to the gatehouse of Rongguo Mansion.The gatekeeper saw that it was Xue's carriage, and he was still wondering why Aunt Xue came here today, when he saw Baochan walking over with the film.The gatekeeper's surprise was not small. The relationship between Xue Pan and the Rong Mansion was obvious to all. When did his family want to deliver the film to the door?

But the gatekeeper only took the film, and said to Baochan: "Miss, please ask your grandma to go in, and I will pass it on." Baochan agreed, and the gatekeeper handed the film to a boy, asking He quickly spread the news to the inside, saying that the grandma of the Xue family came to visit the second grandma Lian, and asked the women inside to come out quickly to meet Grandma Xue and sit in the inner hall for a while.

After they were all busy, the gatekeeper smacked his lips: "Hey, what do you think Grandma Xue is thinking, she came to our house, and she wants someone to pass the film?" The person next to him smiled and said: "I heard that Grandma Xue Grandma took the wrong medicine that day, now, I'm afraid she's taking the wrong medicine again."

The people next to him laughed, and the gatekeeper slapped the man on the head: "Little bastard, you can say such things. After all, she is also the sister-in-law of Second Grandma Bao, so she should be called uncle and grandma."

"If I hadn't taken the wrong medicine, why didn't I see that she wanted to see Second Grandma Bao, but Second Grandma Lian? Who didn't know that Second Grandma Lian was always sick, and my wife ordered Second Grandma Bao to help with the housework." These You don't need to be told by the people next to you, the doorkeeper will know it, but he still smacked his lips again and looked at the sky, hey, why do you care so much about the people above?Just keep guarding the gate.

Because Baochai is helping Sister Feng with the housework these days, those who deliver letters inside should go to Baochai first.

Hearing that his sister-in-law was coming to see Sister Feng, Baochai was not surprised, but was surprised that his sister-in-law came to deliver the film.Seeing that Baochai was holding the post in his hand and not speaking, the old woman was watching her words and said with a smile: "The people outside have invited my uncle and grandma in, and they are sitting there waiting. The little one knows that she is grandma's sister-in-law, and this sister-in-law is waiting." Sister-in-law, it is inevitable..."

Baochai had already stood up and said: "This is what I said, I should go out to meet you." Then Baochai handed the film to the mother-in-law: "Take it and send it to Sister Feng. Just say, I will be with my sister-in-law for a while." We'll be there." The mother-in-law respectfully left.Baochai asked Yinger to follow her, and she was about to go out with her.

Baoyu lifted the curtain from the inside and came out. Seeing Baochai going out, she called to Baochai, "Sister Baochai, where are you going? If you go to say hello to the old lady, tell me that I am already well, and I really want to go to the garden. Walk."

Ever since Baoyu moved out, Daiyu passed away, and Xiangyun Yingchun got married in Grand View Garden, it was only Li Wan who lived in Tanchun Xichun Miaoyu and others. Baochai remembered Jia Zheng's letter and said that he had found a husband's house for Tanchun and wanted to prepare a dowry , sent to Ren Shanghao to get married, the people in the Grand View Garden were so lively at the beginning, but now they are getting more and more lonely.

Baochai put away the sigh in her heart, smiled at Baoyu and said, "The old lady told you that you are weak. There are few people in the garden at the moment, so it's not easy to go. When you feel better, I will ask the old lady for instructions. Go to the garden with you again, okay?" Baoyu smiled and said nothing, Baochai patted Baoyu's hand and went out, and heard Baoyu say behind him: "The garden was so lively at that time, now, Also lonely."

This sentence almost brought Baochai to tears, how interesting it was in the garden.Also, the most difficult thing to get in a person's life is a confidant, and Daiyu is a confidant to Baochai.

"Girl, you don't have to think so much about the Xue family." Xia Jingui's words from yesterday rang in Baochai's ears again. Baochai's eyes became hot and she almost burst into tears, but what if she didn't think about the Xue family?Baochai gently raised her sleeves, swallowed the tears in her eyes under the cover of the sleeves, and said to Ying'er, "Why did sister-in-law come here today?"

"No one can understand the temperament of my uncle and grandma." Ying'er frowned after saying a word: "But it's really strange to pass the film seriously." The master and servant were talking, and they arrived at the little girl waiting for Xia Jingui. Looking at the living room from a distance, through the curtain, one can vaguely see Xia Jingui sitting there dignifiedly, and if you look carefully, you can see that he is not in a hurry.Ever since this sister-in-law woke up, she seemed to have seen it a lot, and even said that she should stop thinking so much about the Xue family.Baochai had mixed feelings in her heart, restrained her emotions, Baochai walked into the room, and smiled before saying anything: "Sister-in-law is here, you should send someone to say so that she can come out to meet you."

"I made a sudden decision, and I don't need anyone to greet me." Seeing Baochai walk in, Xia Jingui put down the teacup in his hand and stood up: "I have something to do with Lian's Second Mistress, so there is no need to exchange pleasantries. Miss, take me to see Lian's Second Mistress." It was so straightforward, Baochai's prepared polite words were all stuck in her throat, and then Baochai smiled and said: "I think there must be something urgent, if that's the case, please, sister-in-law."

Xia Jingui walked out of the house. Along the way, he could see how imposing the house of a century-old family was.However, behind this prosperity, there is a deep-seated decay.The pillar has been eaten away, but the people underneath still think it is indestructible.

Baochai watched Xia Jingui carefully all the way, saw Xia Jingui sighing from time to time, wanted to ask, and told the sister-in-law seriously that she was not familiar with Sister Feng and the others, so she really didn't know how to ask.

"It's really a rare visitor, a rare visitor." A group of people walked to the gate of Sister Feng's courtyard, and heard Sister Feng's laughter coming from the gate of the courtyard.Xia Jingui raised her eyes to look at Sister Feng. This important figure in Dream of Red Mansions, who stole the limelight from the protagonists and could not be bypassed by any adaptation, was indeed as described in the book.He heard it before opening his mouth to smile, although his pair of phoenix eyes were full of smiles, but from time to time there was a stern look.

However, no matter how much Sister Feng tried to cover up, Xia Jingui could still tell that she looked haggard, and the thick makeup couldn't cover up her sickness. After the Lantern Festival in Jia's Mansion, according to the book, she The number of sick days and the few good days, coupled with the divorce from Jia Lian and his wife, even if the second sister You was killed, the relationship between the husband and wife would only decline rapidly.

Xia Jingui thought to himself, the smile on his face remained unchanged, he and Sister Feng greeted each other, exchanged a few words of pleasantries, and then entered the east room where Sister Feng entertained guests.The maid who lifted the curtain had a beautiful face and dignified demeanor, giving people a sense of spring breeze. Presumably this must be Ping'er. Xia Jingui swept Ping'er's hair style and made a judgment in her heart.

Sister Feng had already taken Xia Jingui's hand and told her to sit down on the kang, and said to Baochai, "Sister Xue is here to talk to your sister-in-law, or..."

Baochai had already sat down by herself, and said with a smile to Sister Feng: "Look at Sister Feng, she drove me away before she sat down." Everyone in the room laughed, and Sister Feng laughed the loudest: "I'm not driving you away. , I was thinking, Baoyu can't leave you now, this is one or two, you are in charge of the house at the moment, you have a lot of things, how can you stay here and gossip?"

Ping'er had already brought tea, and laughed when he heard this: "Grandma used to say that Grandma doesn't know how to love others, but now, you don't love Second Grandma Bao."

Sister Feng stretched out her hand and slapped Ping'er on the shoulder: "You are the only girl who talks a lot." Amidst laughter, everyone took tea.Sister Feng sat down opposite Xia Jingui, seeing Xia Jingui looking at her and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Uncle and grandma look at me like this, but they think I treat you girls badly, and want to say something for your girls?"

Sister Feng's speech is really watertight, no wonder she is favored by Jia's mother.Xia Jingui put down the teacup, smiled at Baochai and said, "I don't dare to accept what Second Grandma Lian said." Baochai was a little surprised to see Xia Jingui turning towards him.Sister Feng laughed again: "It turns out that you two sisters-in-law came to see my shortcomings."

Speaking of which, Sister Feng pondered for a moment: "Well, uncle and grandma, please don't talk first, let me guess, but because Second Master Xue is going to marry Second Grandma Xue, uncle and grandma came here and wondered what I can do for you?" Xia Jingui Shaking her head and smiling: "Second Mistress Lian guessed wrong right now, what I did was..."

As Xia Jingui paused on purpose, Baochai, who had never been surprised at the meeting, raised her eyes slightly, and Xia Jingui continued: "Today, I did come to ask for your help, but it's not for our second master to marry the second grandma. It's for my natal family. Second Mistress Lian, you also know that my natal family used to send some sweet-scented osmanthus saplings to the palace. Although they haven't sent any more in the past two years, the original bill is still unsettled. My brother can't say What's good or bad, right now he is going to marry a wife, and he wants to get back the debt first, so that he can deal with the matter before him. Since our family hasn't been in contact with the palace for a long time, we don't know the depth of it, I came here specifically to beg Second Mistress Lian."

It turned out to be such a thing. Just as Sister Feng was about to agree, she saw Baochai next to her face move slightly. Baochai knew that this was not a good place to be.So Sister Feng smiled and said: "It's easy to say about this matter, but because the empress is dead, our family and the palace also..."

☆, conflict

Sister Feng deliberately paused while speaking, and looked at Xia Jingui's face.Why didn't Xia Jingui understand that Sister Feng was intentionally talking about the benefits, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, Jia's mansion was still vigorous, and the eunuchs in the palace wanted to show off the Jia mansion's face.I'm afraid that Sister Feng still wants to ask for more gifts, and now that the Xia family is in a situation, the money is still a waste.So Xia Jingui didn't take up the quarrel, and still waited for Sister Feng to continue with a smile on her face.

What a smart person Baochai is, and now he comes with ears but no mouth, and doesn't speak there.Sister Feng originally wanted to wait for Xia Jingui to speak up, but who knew that Xia Jingui would not answer, Sister Feng couldn't help being surprised, Xia Jingui was really a different person.Thinking of this, Sister Feng didn't know what to say for a while, the room fell silent, only sunlight came in through the glass windows, shining on the faces of the three people.

After being silent for a while, Sister Feng saw that the other two did not open their mouths. The scene couldn't go on like this. Thinking of these days, Sister Feng couldn't help feeling disheartened. She made suggestions for the family and earned so much money. There are a few people who know their hard work, so when Sister Feng spoke, she couldn't help feeling a little discouraged: "Our family and the palace are not as close as before. Grandma Xue has always known it well."

Xia Jingui heard the discouragement in Sister Feng's words, and Xia Jingui couldn't help but looked at Sister Feng in surprise, seeing that Sister Feng's expression was more haggard than before.Xia Jingui looked at Baochai again, Baochai was still sitting there dignified, as if nothing had happened.Xia Jingui couldn't help sighing in his heart, it was already this time, and the people who were supposed to support Jia's house still couldn't.However, no matter how you have to pass this level.

Xia Jingui smiled again, and then said to Sister Feng: "Second Grandma Lian dislikes us?" , but with a flick of the little finger, it’s done, so I’m saying this on purpose now, are you really disgusted?”

Sister Feng didn't expect Xia Jingui to be so direct, and she took back the idea that Xia Jingui had changed just now, and forgot what kind of temperament Xia Jingui was.When Sister Feng thought about it, the smile on her face became a little fake: "What did Grandma Xue say? We are all relatives, so how can we dislike each other, but it is true that there are difficulties. If you don't believe me, you can ask the eldest sister?"

When Baochai saw that Sister Feng asked her directly, she could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, so she pondered for a while before saying, "Sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law Lian is telling the truth, but..."

"However, we are so close to each other, even if it's difficult, let's ask Lian's second grandma to help us this time." Xia Jingui interrupted Baochai, and said to Sister Feng with a smile. Look at Sister Feng.Sister Feng pressed her forehead with her hand, a little impatience appeared on her face.Seeing Sister Feng like this, Xia Jingui sighed even more in her heart, but it doesn't matter if she is selfish or whatever, as long as she can keep herself, as for the future of Jia's mansion, no one can save it, and there is no need to save it. They were all made by the Jia family themselves, no wonder others.

Even though she thought so in her heart, Xia Jingui's words still contained some sincerity: "I know that Second Grandma Lian is not in good health at the moment, so it's wrong to trouble my cousin again, but I thought, my natal family wants It will be beneficial in the future to be able to be the same as before." While talking, Xia Jingui glanced at Baochai again, and sure enough, Baochai's eyes changed when he heard this. With such an attitude, Xia Jingui's daughter will definitely benefit a lot, and she will be able to help Xue's family at that time.

Baochai smiled eagerly, and said to Sister Feng: "Second sister-in-law, we also know that this matter is embarrassing, but it is not difficult, and we will not come to trouble second sister-in-law, will we?"

Sister Feng put her hand on her forehead again, exhaustion welled up in her heart. Seeing Sister Feng like this, Xia Jingui felt pity and sighed in her heart. As for Baochai, for the sake of the Xue family, it could be said that she would kill her.For a moment, Xia Jingui didn't know who was the sadder among the three people present. When she thought about it, tears were about to flow out. Xia Jingui had no choice but to turn her head and look outside so that she could swallow her tears.

After clearing her mind, Xia Jingui turned her head and smiled at Sister Feng: "Although this is just a matter of little effort for Second Mistress Lian, it will be a blessing to our Xia family. When Second Mistress Lian has any orders, There must be no other words." Xia Jingui's words were 12 very sincere, and Sister Feng raised her eyelids slightly, looked at Xia Jingui, and smiled reluctantly: "It's all about this, if I don't help you, what kind of person will I become?" Yes. It’s just Grandma Xue, there are some things...favorite, use it once and use it less.”

Sister Feng's sudden change of mouth made Baochai's eyes droop. At this moment, Baochai was thinking of her brother in prison. Seeing that his life was about to die, he hoped that Xiangling would be saved if he entered the prison. So that my mother can have comfort for the rest of her life.After Sister Feng spoke, the three of them fell silent again with their own concerns.

After a while, Sister Feng wiped away the tears that appeared at the corners of her eyes, and called Ping'er to the outside. There is also the silver for the sweet-scented osmanthus saplings of the Xia family. There are always several thousand taels. She said that she wanted to invite our family to pass a word to the person in charge of the palace to settle the silver. You let people go to find Wang'er, let Wang Take the housekeeper of the Xia family with you, and go to the Xia capital prison."

Ping'er should have gone out, and Sister Feng said to Xia Jingui after she had finished giving her orders: "At this moment, there are only a few people who can talk, and then it depends on luck." Xia Jingui had already stood up and saluted Sister Feng repeatedly. Chai also stood up and said two or three polite words. Sister Feng hurriedly declined a few words, and Xia Jingui said again: "When my brother's daughter-in-law passes through the door, I will bring my brother's daughter-in-law over to thank Lian's second sister-in-law."

The address has changed. Although Sister Feng knew that she should smile, she couldn't get rid of the exhaustion all over her body, so she forced a smile to Xia Jingui.This kind of exhaustion really can't be covered up. Xia Jingui looked at this beauty who made people hate and love. If it was in modern times, people like Sister Feng would live a very carefree life instead of being trapped in the back house. There are only men's sisters-in-law, all kinds of entertainment.

Xia Jingui said a few more polite words, and said goodbye to Baochai.Baochai and Xia Jingui walked out of Sister Feng's courtyard, and after walking silently for a while, Baochai said to Xia Jingui, "Sister-in-law, why don't you come and sit in my room?"

"No need, there's still something to do over there." Xia Jingui knew that he would find no one to talk to here, and he was not in the mood to entertain Baochai, so he refused and left.Baochai responded and said to Xia Jingui: "My sister-in-law's family has taken back the money, and I think I will start the business again in the future, when the time comes..."

Xia Jingui stopped and looked at Baochai. Baochai was a little confused by Xia Jingui's actions, and her eyes were full of doubts.

"Miss, your character, talent and appearance are much better than your brother's." Xia Jingui's compliment came so suddenly, Baochai was even more puzzled.Xia Jingui's eyes became a little fiery: "Then girl, have you thought about why you have to live like this for your foolish brother. Girl, do your calculations carefully, it is your foolish brother who hurt you, not helping you .”

"You, you, you..." Baochai didn't expect Xia Jingui to say this. Although she knew that Xue Pan and Xia Jingui were not in harmony, Baochai thought, Xia Jingui is also a literate person, and her brother is in prison. I also feel distressed, now that she actually said something wrong with her brother, Baochai even said a few things about you, and wanted to refute Xia Jingui, but she was always limited by her upbringing, so she couldn't even utter a curse word.

"Miss, do you think I've said something wrong? Miss, think about it carefully. What's going on in Jia's mansion right now? You understand better. Could it be that the girl is so beautiful and talented, and she wants to ruin you for these rotten mud?" Himself?" Seeing that Baochai's face had turned pale with anger, Xia Jingui simply spoke out.

"You, you are really crazy, if it wasn't because you were noisy all the time, and the family was not peaceful, my brother wouldn't..." Baochai had only spoken halfway before seeing the mockery on Xia Jingui's face. To go the other way.Xia Jingui stretched out her hand and grabbed Baochai's sleeve: "Girl, you know that it's not me who is crazy, nor is it wrong, it's your brother, it's him who is looking forward to Shu, eating what's in the bowl and thinking about what's in the pot. Ling, wanting Baochan again, how he begged Xiangling at the beginning, and now he is humiliating Xiangling for Baochan. Willful and angry, he will lose his temper when things don't go his way."

"Enough!" Baochai turned to look at Xia Jingui, her face flushed slightly annoyed: "Why do you say this?"

"No reason, girl, I know you are willing, but Xiangling is not, don't let Xiangling go to prison, Xiangling has suffered enough in the past ten years, why make her suffer more?" Eyes widened, Baochai laughed, "Sister-in-law can go and talk to Xiangling herself."

"Xiangling won't listen to me, girl, in Xiangling's heart, she is only willing to listen to you, girl. As for... girl, you know, the wife will think that I am just jealous, so she doesn't want to let Xiangling go. Xia Jingui made a helpless gesture, and Baochai smiled: "But Xiangling did it voluntarily."

Voluntary, these three words made Xia Jingui speechless, she looked at Baochai and suddenly laughed again: "Yes, I forgot, girl, you are willing to take your own life for the sake of the Xue family , how can you care about a Xiangling. Girl, you have always been cold-hearted."
