Sister Xue of the Red Chamber

Seeing parents, Bao Hyun, talking about the past, the sister and the princess pointing out the way forward

Enter the side door, change the sedan chair, turn around the screen wall, and then there is a long corridor.

This is the first time for Baochai to enter Duke Zhongxiao's mansion, while she listens carefully to the movement outside, she slowly calculates the layout of the house in her heart.It was only after the sedan chair had entered the vertical flower gate and stopped firmly that Yinger was asked to raise the curtain of the sedan chair.

What is waiting outside is Cultivation Heart.

Baochai paused as she leaned forward, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

I also know what kind of "friendship" I have with Xiuxin. If a father loves his children so much, he will definitely not ask her to pick him up.The Feng family has always been a person who doesn't care about everything, and Xue Pan, a big bastard, would never have thought of this.Presumably, it was my good sister who made the decision.

It's just that I have to bear this down.

Baochai supported Ying'er's hand to get out of the car, and the smiling fellow practitioner thought, "Sister Xiuxin."

Xiuxin frowned, but said again: "Miss Baochai. The master has an invitation from the side hall." As he spoke, he motioned for the woman beside him to lead the way.

Just as Aunt Wang was about to follow, Xiu Xin turned to her side and said, "Wait a minute, Aunt Wang, the Eldest Princess, please go back to the flower hall to talk."

The two were taken aback, and Aunt Wang looked up at Baochai.

Baochai lost her mind for a moment.But now that I'm here, I can't help myself.She shook her head and said softly, "Don't worry, mother, let's go."

When Baochai came to the side hall, he saw Xue Tianxiang sitting upright drinking tea.

Seeing her coming, she put down the teacup, looked up and down, sighed lightly, pointed to the chair at the bottom and said, "Sit."

But Baochai took two steps forward, knelt down and cried, "Father!"

Xue Tianxiang slowly raised his hand and rubbed his second daughter's head. "How have you been doing these years? Back then you didn't take much money, but was it enough for chewing?"

"It's okay. There is never any shortage of money. It's just that I often miss my father." Baochai said.

"Are you wronged outside?"

"No. My aunt has been kind to us."

Xue Tianxiang frowned and said: "The second wife of Jia's mansion...I heard that she likes the yellow and white things very much." This is what Bao Xuan said, but Xue Tianxiang is not easy to say it clearly.

Baochai lowered her head and wiped her tears, "It's not too bad. My mother and I were staying at their house. They don't have money at the moment, so we should help."

"Forget it. You are here to drink tea and play chess with me, and your sister has something to say to Aunt Wang. I will take you there later."

Back flower hall.

Aunt Wang looked at the woman in the flag dress in front of her, and sighed, "You are so old, I can't even recognize you."

"My aunt is worried." Bao Xuan replied flatly.

"You still blame me?"

Baoxuan sneered, "I don't blame you, who do I blame? Baochai?"

Aunt Wang hurriedly said, "It's none of Baochai's business, why bother to involve her."

Bao Xuan laughed and said, "Auntie is really a loving mother."

"Baochai crawled out of my stomach, if I don't treat her well, who should I treat well?"

"And me?"

After Aunt Wang entered the door, she resisted listening to her calling her "auntie" for a long time. A pile of anger had already accumulated in her heart, and she blurted out and cursed: "So what if you crawled out of my stomach, you are born to eat inside and outside! Now that you see me being disrespectful, it’s all right, and you’re still talking about my aunt, I should have strangled you to death when you were just born!"

"It's not mine." Bao Xuan didn't look at her, and reached out to pick up a piece of preserved apricot from the snack plate, "I'm afraid my aunt has a bad memory, the nurse next to you was going to strangle me to death, but it's a pity I have great fortune and fate, and let my aunt down."

Aunt Wang was very angry, but then she thought of Baochai again. She suppressed her anger and said, "It's a pity that you were taken away by Mrs. Tai. If you are kept by my side, I will treat you like Baochai."

"Save it! Auntie looked at me and didn't know about the full moon banquet!"

Aunt Wang jumped up: "Who told you? Is it the old godly woman? Or the lowly servant girl Xiuxin?"

Baoxuan frowned, "Since my aunt is always thinking of Baochai, she should also pay attention to what she says. Baochai is raised by her side, so she has a loving mother's heart. Putting herself and others, Baoxuan was raised by her grandmother since she was a child, so it is natural for her to love her. Grandma also has a feeling of admiration. Please also ask my aunt to accumulate virtue!"

Aunt Wang pointed at Bao Xuan and tremblingly said: "I am your biological mother! How dare you treat me like this!"

"Birth mother? It's better not to give birth than to give birth! Besides, the imperial decree enshrined in the ancestral hall clearly states that my elder brother and I are twins born to Mrs. Feng. Could it be that Aunt Wang is talking about the emperor's death?" lied?"

At this time, Aunt Wang finally remembered why she came to Xue's mansion today. She slumped back on her chair and said powerlessly: "It's okay, okay. There is no need to say more good things. We mother and daughter have been left and right for so many years. It's just that they look at each other and hate each other. It's just that Baochai...is your biological sister after all. I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you to find her a good family."

Bao Xuan stood up, wanted to take a few steps inside but stopped, without turning around, and asked: "A good family? What kind of family is a good family? A poor family, a scholarly family, a noble family, a famous family, or ... the royal family?"

Aunt Wang said: "Baochai's character, appearance, and family background make her even a noble concubine."

Baoxuan let out a wry smile, "I have already made up my mind about Baochai's marriage. Although not in the capital, it can be said to be a first-class noble. Only one thing is, after Baochai gets married, you will stay in Xue's ancestral hall, Chanting scriptures and offering incense to grandma every day!"

Aunt Wang finally agreed.

She thought, even though Baochai didn't marry in Beijing, since she was a very noble family, it wouldn't be a big deal to ask someone to take her away after Baochai married and gained a firm foothold!Besides, with Baochai's intelligence, I'm afraid I can follow him in less than a year!

Later, Aunt Wang found out that the place where Baochai was going to marry was absolutely impossible for her to follow.Although she complained, she was reluctant to ask Baochai to abandon the wealth and honor that was within reach, and finally prayed for Baochai's life's peace and joy in Xue's ancestral hall.

This is later.

On the one hand, Baoxuan ordered Bai Shao to invite the master and Miss Bao, and on the other hand, he asked Zisu to invite the wife and the young master.

Aunt Wang said, "What are you two doing here?"

"Let's talk together." Bao Xuan didn't bother to talk to him.

Xue Tian and the Feng family took the main seat, Baochai and Xue Pan sat on the left side, and Wang's mother and daughter had to sit on the right.

Aunt Wang couldn't help but said, "Tell me quickly, what kind of marriage is arranged for Baochai?"

Bao Hyun looked at her with a half-smile.

Aunt Wang's scalp was numb from her look, Baochai stood up with a smile and said, "Baochai hasn't seen sister for a long time, how is sister?"

Bao Xuan rolled his eyelids, and said: "You don't have to be so polite. You are a smart person, let's spread the word out and explain it clearly. In the end, whoever blames whom will be saved."

Baochai stopped exchanging pleasantries, "Although Baochai is stupid, she still has some self-awareness. My mother told me in a whisper earlier that it's not a very noble marriage in Beijing... but Hefan?"

"What!" Aunt Wang jumped up.Baochai hastily stretched out her hand to grab her.

Baoxuan raised his eyebrows, "You are filial." He then ordered, "Red apricots, rice and peaches, go and guard the door; white peony and basil, look outside and look under the windows. This is the emperor's brother." Command, the Queen Mother agreed, the matter is of great importance, you all need to be vigilant."

"Yes."

Seeing that the four of them were guarding the place, Baoxuan turned to Baochai and said, "As women, it is not up to us to worry about the country's major affairs. But there is one matter, although it is related to the country, we have done a good job, but It is to share the worries of the Queen Mother."

Aunt Wang muttered, "That's not He Fan."

"It's He Fan, but it's not He Fan." Baoxuan talked about the separation of Jia's family when he was proud of himself, so he discussed the arrangement with Qianlong and Lin Heyu.

"Have you ever heard of Baochai, England?"

Baochai thought for a while, and while comforting Aunt Wang who was about to jump, she asked, "Foreigner?"

"Auntie is right. Baochai's character, appearance, and family background are worthy of a noble concubine. But now that I am the righteous sister of the current emperor, it is hopeless for you to enter the palace as a concubine. You can think... ...to be the Queen of the King of England?"

Aunt Wang said, "How old is the King of England?"

Any other Aunt Wang would definitely look down on her.This foreigner's queen is really honorable.Among other things, on the ground of the king of England, isn't she just like the queen!

Bao Xuan laughed and said: "Where can it be so simple to be a queen directly. What I'm talking about is the youngest son of the King of England, William Augustus, who is now 21. They don't like to marry early, and they are not allowed to take concubines. It’s quite a good match.”

Aunt Wang said, "It's not good to take concubines... that's the royal family among foreigners, so there are not many concubines. Besides, you can't take concubines, but this heir can..."

Baochai also said, "We don't have much contact with people from England on weekdays. Our family is not very good in the capital. How can we become the son of the King of England? Besides, as the youngest son, in the future... ..”

"England is different from ours. There is no such thing as a concubine, a concubine, and a concubine. Even if you have a concubine, the son of the concubine is not allowed to inherit the throne or share the property. Then the king and queen will have two sons. He has always been at odds with his eldest son. At that time, his son was very popular with the King of England. He was named Duke of Cumberland at the age of five, and now he is in the army, and he was named "Colonel". It is said that he has made a lot of achievements."

Saying that, Baoxuan showed a smile, "Such a person, plus our Baochai's intelligence, why worry about him not succeeding? Our home is the residence of the first-class duke. In England, counting down from the king of England, First the prince, and then the duke, isn’t that the highest title? If Baochai marries England, then asks the imperial brother to become a princess, and only says to the English king that she is the younger sister of the Qing emperor. How can the British understand us? The first-born, the concubine, and the relatives did it in a crooked way, let alone the righteous sister, who didn't understand it yet! Besides, the heirs, they have their rules, and we have ours. Not to mention Baochai. The body has always been strong, even if you can't get a man and a half woman, it's enough to carry one or two concubines from the dowry maid. The British only know whether to take concubines, but they don't know that there is such a thing as concubines in the world. You will let us here Speaking of the rules of concubines and concubines, it is natural to sit back and relax if one of the children in the common room is recognized as the son of the concubine."

Baochai thought for a while, and said, "Why is this so important? Why do the emperor and the queen mother care about this so much? Why me?"

"You are smart and beautiful. You come from a good family background, and your knowledge is not bad. Although you can't see yourself clearly, you can learn it. After a while, learn a few days of foreign language, and learn some tricks with the old people in the palace. , when the time comes, the guards, maids, women, and servants will only have a long history in the Princess Mansion, and you will be allowed to take them all. Then pick a few good foreign languages ​​from the foreign language school, count them as envoys, and listen to your dispatches. "

"As for why this matter is so important...England is different from us. Most of their queens are princesses from other countries, so they don't worry about princes being mixed with blood from other countries. If that's the case, then let's join in. .Look at Mongolia, how many Mongolian princes are the grandsons of the Aixinjueluo family! Whether you will be the queen at ease in the future, or support your son to succeed to the throne, the Qing Dynasty will support you behind you!"

Baochai gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go! It's just mother..."

Aunt Wang immediately said: "Mother is old, and it is a long way to go to England, and she has to go to sea again. Mother's body can't hold on. You are struggling in England, and mother is happy in Beijing. Remember to write a lot of letters, and mother is It is also worth praying for you in front of the Bodhisattva every day!"

Xue Pan suddenly said, "I'll take Baochai off."

"Brother..." Baochai saw Xue Pan treat her like this for the first time, just like Baoxuan.

Bao Xuan shook his head and said, "A few years ago it was fine. It's just that this year is the draft year..."

"A draft?" Baochai asked.

Xue Pan scratched his forehead with a smirk, and it was Bao Xuan who said for him, "Brother's marriage has a name with the queen mother, and it is decided by Daiyu."

Aunt Wang said: "It's so!"

Baochai said with a smile, "Although I don't have much contact with Daiyu, she is indeed talented and beautiful. Brother Xi is such a rough man!"

Bao Xuan laughed, "Don't laugh at the other. Both of you should prepare congratulatory gifts!"

"Just don't forget, you have to prepare for the eldest princess's wedding!" Feng Shi also joked.

The family talked and laughed, as if they were really a happy family.
