[Quick Transmigration] The Red Chamber abused me a thousand times

Baochai didn't know, because he only put two health cards in the peace amulet, which caused Jia Min to start planning for Daiyu's future.At this time, she had worshiped all the temples around Yangzhou, and was about to leave for Jinling.

"Sister Xue, can't you stay for a few more days?" Daiyu followed Baochai to go to the temple to offer incense every day these days, she did more activities, ate more, slept enough, and her little face became rosy. up.In addition, Baochai had poems and books in her stomach, and she got along very well with her, so she was even more reluctant to leave this young lady.

Baochai said with a smile: "We have been out for half a month. If we don't leave, we won't be able to go home in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival. My mother is also worried about it. How can we let her celebrate the festival alone?"

Seeing that Daiyu was getting better every day, Jia Min also became more and more fond of Baochai who gave her the peace talisman, and persuaded her: "Your sister Bao is right. Now that you get together with your mother every day, naturally you don't like it." I know what it feels like to be homesick. When the spring is warm next year, you invite Sister Bao to come over, or you go to visit her, it's the same."

After hearing this, Daiyu hurriedly asked, "Will mother go with me then?"

Jia Min's heart was twisted, and she didn't know if she would survive until the spring day, but she didn't want her daughter to be sad, so she said kindly, "If I can still move in the next spring day, I will naturally go with you."

After hearing Jia Min's words, Daiyu burst into tears: "Who said that mother's health is not good, you don't have to wait for the spring day, and mother will be fine in the next day. I asked my mother for peace charms everywhere, and it must be effective. "

After hearing Daiyu's words, not to mention Jia Min, even Baochai felt uncomfortable.It's just that there is one less health card, and she has no reason to give Jia Min another one now.It doesn't matter if you say she is ruthless, or you say she is stingy, but what she does is to complete the task.Helping Daiyu is only because of getting along with each other in the previous two lives. Daiyu is sincere, making Baochai not want her to suffer, but avoiding others if he can.

Now Baochai is getting along well with Daiyu's mother and daughter, and Xue's father and Lin Ruhai are also getting along well. The two of them have achieved their goal in this trip, and they are naturally in a good mood on the return trip, washing away all Baochai's worries about parting.Even Aunt Xue, seeing that her husband and daughter were safe, let go of her worries and hoped that her son would come back soon so that they could have a happy reunion together.

Seeing Xue Pan again, Baochai felt a little unfamiliar, but felt that not only had he grown taller, but also that his unruly face had become less, his behavior had become more orderly, and his speech was no longer as arrogant as before.Aunt Xue only felt that her son had suffered a lot to become like this, and she refused to let go of her hug: "My good boy, I sent him to the academy to study. How did those gentlemen torture my son? It makes the child stupid."

This is really reasonable.Baochai, who was listening, finally realized that Aunt Xue was actually a fool in her eyes to be polite and courteous!No wonder Xue Pan has such a domineering temperament in the original book, even a good boy has to be taught to be like that, okay?

Xue's father who was on the side didn't like to hear it either, and he didn't have to be like Baochai who couldn't tell his mother's fault, so he shouted impatiently: "What nonsense! Pan'er finally learned to be more polite, and you don't expect him to be okay? In the past, it was only said that the people who followed led him to the ground, but I don’t think there is any need for people to follow, just you are enough.”

Aunt Xue was a little guilty when she saw her husband get angry. She didn't want to hear Father Xue accuse her of bringing up her son, so she stopped doing it: "What did the master say? I just complained because Pan'er was suffering."

Baochai couldn't help it, so she had to come forward and say, "My brother just came home, let him wash up, and then let the kitchen bring some food over."

This Aunt Xue had no objection, she kept calling for water to be brought quickly, and went to the kitchen to urge food.Fortunately, Xue Pan has made a lot of progress in the past few months, and he grooms himself to look good. Except for Aunt Xue who is more distressed, Father Xue and Baochai feel a lot of comfort.

The academy gave the students a three-day holiday so that they could spend the holidays at home.On the first day, Xue Pan was still able to get up and read according to the schedule of the academy. On the second day, he went out to enjoy the wind for half a day in the afternoon, and on the third day, he went out early.When Xue's father asked, Aunt Xue still covered him up: "Pan'er hasn't come back for quite a while, and his friends invited him to get together, so he should be allowed to relax."

Xue's father didn't take it seriously: "He only knows some cronies. He can have no serious business. The meeting is just for eating, drinking and having fun! Maybe he will cause some troubles."

Afterwards, Baochai kept thinking, father Xue's mouth must have been opened, so how could he be sure of what he said.That day Xue Pan really got into trouble again, even fighting with the magistrate's son because of a prostitute.Fortunately, there were people around to persuade him, so it didn't cause a catastrophe.

Father Xue was not in a hurry to send his son to the academy, so he had to bring someone with him, and prepared a generous gift to apologize to the magistrate.Xue Pan was unwilling: "He didn't suffer, and I didn't take advantage, why should I apologize to him?"

Father Xue said angrily: "You scoundrel. I thought that you have made some progress after entering the academy, but who knows that you don't have a long-term personality. You have only been home for three days, and you have caused trouble again. Why do you say you are going to someone's house to apologize? , isn’t it because he is an official and my family is just a merchant?!”

Xue Pan was still not convinced: "Even if he is an official, my family is also one of the four major families. There are uncle and aunt's family, why bother to be inferior to a fourth-rank official like him!"

Father Xue was so angry that he threw the teacup in his hand: "I said, where did you get the courage! What four major families, it's just flattery. You believe it? Besides, your uncle and aunt's family, even if it's sending letters now In the past, it took a month or two to hear back, and with this effort, ten Xue families have been cleaned up!"

Not to mention Xue Pan, even Aunt Xue, who was trying to persuade him, couldn't refute Father Xue's words.After a while, Xue Pan muttered unconvinced: "What's the big deal, isn't it because he is an official?"

Pian Xue's father listened to his son's words. He couldn't keep the teacup he had just changed in his hand, and threw it at Xue Pan again: "Yes, he is relying on himself as an official, and our family is a merchant, so he You can ask people to trouble our family at any time. If you are not convinced, you can also be an official and show me."

Aunt Xue just wanted to say that our family is different from other merchants. It is an imperial merchant, but her son has already said angrily: "Isn't it just to be an official? Who can't do it? I just want to study hard and be an official for my father." look!"

Xue's father didn't take Xue Pan's words seriously, and still detained him. He took a generous gift to the magistrate's house to pay the gift, and then sent Xue Pan to Qingshan Academy again, and ordered him not to go home until the Chinese New Year.This Xue Pan was also stimulated, and he decided to read the book well. Although it was a harsh word for a while, it was still valid at this time, and he did not dislike Father Xue's order.

But Baochai didn't think it was accidental, so she went to Xue's father and asked, "Did father ever check the people who followed brother?"

Father Xue thought about it and asked, "Do you think someone deliberately caused your brother to get into trouble?"

Baochai nodded and said, "Father, think about it, my brother was honest on the first day home, but why did he return to his original temper on the second afternoon? If no one said anything to my brother, my daughter would not believe it."

Father Xue nodded, "I've thought about it too. But it's not like your mother didn't say what your brother said." It's suspected that Aunt Xue was nagging her son secretly.

Baochai shook her head again: "If my mother didn't tell me, my daughter dare not lie. It's just that my brother has been in the academy for more than four months, and his temper has almost worn out. This time, it's just a little longer when I go home. My son has wasted several months of hard work, and my daughter really can't figure it out—it's not like my mother didn't say such things when my brother came back a few times ago, why did my brother change this time?"

Baochai didn't know what Father Xue was thinking, but he only heard that some of the servants who followed Xue Pan were called by the master for questioning.A few days later, these young servants, together with their family members, disappeared in Xue's house.A few days later, the girl in Aunt Xue's yard sent a letter, saying that the old lady had invited the girl over.

Parents called, but Baochai didn't dare to delay. After seeing that her makeup was decent and her clothes were neat, she followed the girl who came to inform her to go to the room.As soon as he entered the room, he found that the atmosphere was not right. His father was full of anger, but his mother had tears on her face.After paying his respects, Baochai had to ask, "Is mother worried about brother?"

Father Xue said angrily: "She is worried, worried that your brother will not be a bad student, and has never killed anyone!"

What is this nonsense?And Aunt Xue started crying again, and she didn't even refute!Xue's father didn't play dumb with Baochai either, and said in an evil voice: "Do you know that those little servants who make your brother mess around are all children of your mother's companion?"

Baochai shook her head blankly.Father Xue went on to say: "Your mother's few good companions actually took money from your good aunt and asked them to lead your brother to have fun. That's not counting, those slaves are still honored every day. How prestige the children of the Guofu are in Beijing, how they regard human life as worthless, how they boss officials around, you tell your brother every day, let him think that his relatives can do it, and he can learn a lesson! Hmph, this is really good relative!"

Seeing Xue's father talking excitedly, Baochai couldn't help offering tea to her, and then asked: "The two families are close relatives, why does my aunt have such thoughts? If my brother is not well, what can I do for my aunt?"

Father Xue snorted again: "Why is there no benefit? Why do you think our family has to prepare heavy gifts for your uncle and aunt's family during the New Year's festival? Didn't we ask for their protection! But what happened to our family? It's just that your uncle is busy with work, and your mother feels that she is close to your aunt, so many things are begged to the Rongguo Mansion. But whenever you ask, not a lot of money is also given Come on? The money given to your aunt all these years is enough to beat a man as big as your brother."

Father Xue can reveal Mrs. Wang's private wishes, but Baochai is a junior but he can't say anything.It's just that in my heart, I have no choice but to convince Mrs. Wang that she is so fishing and collecting money.This is still a relative. How can there be an enemy with such a relative?This is to destroy the Xue family from the root!

For a moment, there were only the sound of father Xue's heavy panting and Aunt Xue's crying in the room.Because the servants had asked Father Xue to throw Baochai out when Baochai entered the house, Baochai had no choice but to twist the towel by himself, and handed it to Aunt Xue to wipe his face: "Mom, don't cry. Auntie did such a thing, and Mom wouldn't do it." I know, father should not blame mother either. As long as we stay far away in the future, it will be fine."

How about not far away?If you get closer to such a family, the role of the money bag of the Rongguo Mansion in the original book will not be far away.Father Xue also had no choice but to sigh: "Forget it, you don't have to cry. You should remember this matter yourself, don't let your good sister-in-law coax you away with a few words. The etiquette in the future will be compared to what they give you." Our return gift is enough. And your remaining companions, also take care of them again. Throw out the useless ones together!"

Hearing Father Xue's tone loosened, Aunt Xue cried even louder.In this cry, there is the unwillingness to be deceived by relatives, the embarrassment of having no one to use, and the bitterness of separation between husband and wife.

Father Xue went on to say: "In the future, when you are housekeeper, bring some hairpins with you. If you have any doubts, ask me more."How could Aunt Xue not understand?It's just that her elder sister was leading her son to be bad for the sake of money, and she had no objection, so she had no choice but to agree reluctantly.

When Father Xue left, Aunt Xue felt sad again, hugged Baochai and cried, "My son, your mother's life is so miserable."

Baochai wanted to say that you deserve it, but she was facing the original owner's own mother, so she shouldn't have said such words from her own mouth.I had no choice but to persuade: "Mom, don't be sad. Fortunately, my brother is still young, and he discovered it early, so there are still other ways to think about it. As long as we don't ask for the house in the future and move around less, she will have nowhere to start. "

After hearing this, Aunt Xue gradually shed her tears, and said in a harsh voice: "My elder sister has always loved money since she was a child. Back then, she was a legitimate daughter, so it was okay to get ahead of everything. Now that they are all married, the letter said it was full of hype. It was only for the money."

Baochai, on the other hand, felt that it would be nice to be vigilant about such a thing, not to mention breaking up contact with Jia's family, but to maintain a face-to-face relationship. This meant that half of his task had been completed!And Mrs. Wang, without the support of the Xue family's money, certainly can't give money to Yuanchun in the palace at will. The mission is off to a good start!

Aunt Xue didn't know what was going on in Baochai's mind, and she was still angry: "Your aunt has already sent her eldest daughter to the palace. She said that the palace costs too much. I was thinking of giving my private house to you." She said, who knows she would do such a thing. Does my own daughter know how to spend money? There is someone who paves the way for her daughter, why don’t I pave the way for my own daughter?”

"Mom?" Baochai was startled by the amount of information in Aunt Xue's words: "What are you talking about?"

Aunt Xue also realized that she had said something wrong and wanted to explain it away with other words.But Baochai has already heard that the wind is wrong, how can he let it go like this?It was only through soft words that I learned from Aunt Xue: The Xue family is an imperial businessman, but in the eyes of the royal family, it is just a family with children.Therefore, the daughters of the Xue family are not subject to the restriction that the candidates must not be merchants, but only those who cannot enter the palace can marry themselves after a small selection.It's just that, after all, they have some money in their hands. Generally, the royal merchant's family puts some money into the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it's not a problem to lose the election.

But Aunt Xue let Mrs. Wang irritate her so much, she felt that if her daughter entered the palace and became a person next to the nobleman, then she would no longer have to look at the face of her sister-in-law, and she might be able to overwhelm Mrs. Wang. The idea of ​​letting Baochai enter the palace!

"Does father know about this?" Baochai asked Aunt Xue uncertainly.She originally thought that with Father Xue in this life, maybe she would not need to enter the palace by herself, but would find an official marriage for herself - to be a lady of the head, to be ordered by imperial order, is it considered as overpowering Yuanchun?Who would have thought that the daughters of the Imperial Merchant's family would all be chosen by the young ones!No wonder in the original book the Xue family heard that the princesses chose to read as companions, so they hurried to Beijing to make arrangements. Compared with being a court lady serving people, the reputation of being a companion is much better.

Aunt Xue was a little embarrassed: "I haven't mentioned this matter to your father. Don't worry, your father loves you so much, he will definitely find a way for you." It's better not to explain, it makes people feel guilty.

It may be that Aunt Xue had said something to Father Xue. Today, Father Xue found Baochai and asked directly, "Do you think that your family has made you feel wronged by letting you participate in the election?"

Baochai just lowered her head and didn't answer, her face was also calm, as if Father Xue was talking about someone else's business.This is not the reaction an eight or nine-year-old child should have.Xue's father was reminded by Baochai several times, knowing that this is a child with great ideas, if he can't talk to her, it will be bad if she has something wrong in her heart.

"Does Chai know the identity of our family?" Father Xue asked, but before Baochai could answer, he said, "Our family is a merchant and an imperial merchant. We are merchants who work for the royal family. Don't look at this." Merchants are looked down upon, but imperial merchants are different, how many merchants are willing to add the word "imperial" in front of themselves."

This is natural, after all, it is such an era of supremacy of imperial power, anyone who is associated with the royal family is covered with a layer of mysterious brilliance, even businessmen are superior to others.Baochai shook her head helplessly, it was really a helpless fact.

Seeing Baochai shaking her head, Father Xue thought that she didn't believe her words, so he explained to her: "There are more than [-] imperial merchants in the country, and they buy clothes and food for the royal family. It is impossible for the Xue family to get the title of imperial merchant. But after the capital was moved, many imperial merchants went to the capital with the royal family, but the ancestors of our Xue family could not leave their homeland and still stayed in Jinling."

Baochai didn't know there was such a passage, because whether it was the original novel or the fanfiction, most of them revolved around the Jia family, and rarely mentioned the history of the Xue family.Father Xue didn't care whether Baochai understood or not, and continued to tell her why he wanted to do this:

"But after all, the Imperial Merchant wants to serve the royal family. Even if our family has taken over the purchase of Jiangnan, the relationship with the capital and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is somewhat alienated. If the relationship with the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not repaired, your grandfather's old How long can I save face? I'm afraid it won't be long, and our family's qualification as an imperial merchant will be revoked."

Baochai finally raised her head, and asked puzzledly: "Then why can't our family also move to the capital, so that we can get closer to the House of Internal Affairs? Besides, this draft, isn't there another family fault? Are you a merchant? Our family is always a merchant, so my daughter might not be eligible for the election, right?"

Hearing this childish words, Father Xue smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this. Let's talk about the matter of entering Beijing first. There are more than [-] imperial merchants in the world, each of whom has an errand. Let's enter Beijing, let's not talk about who will buy from Jiangnan Do it, some people are willing to do it. It’s just that after entering Beijing, who will take on the errand? You know, those people and the adults of the Ministry of Internal Affairs communicate with each other. It’s not that we only come to Beijing once in the past few years Comparable."

"Let's talk about your election. My family is an imperial merchant after all. So, Chaier, don't blame your father for being cruel and want to send you to the palace. Not only can our family not prevent you from being elected, but we have to use you as an excuse to send you to the palace. Send the money into the hands of those gentlemen in the House of Internal Affairs. Let them know the Xue family and remember the Xue family!"

Hehe, this is really a family member, a family member that Xue Baochai saved after wasting his precious health card!For the sake of the family, Xue Baochai has been weighed now!It's no wonder that the original owner of the family has always had ambitions for the sky, but he is warm-hearted and cold-hearted towards people.Whoever let one's relatives calculate and evaluate like this, the heart will not be warmed up.

Baochai lowered her head early to prevent Father Xue from seeing the sarcasm in her eyes.Then Father Xue may have been suppressed for a long time, and his interest in talking continued: "It's fine if your brother is upright, but you know what kind of temperament he is. Don't talk about expanding the family's business, as long as he can keep it, I will do it." It's time to smile secretly. So, Chai'er, when you enter the palace, you must find a way to help your brother."

That's right, having a daughter is to serve the son. This is the common thinking of people at this time. Marriages that can be married can increase the strength of the son.Those who can't find good in-laws are sent to the high family as concubines, which can be regarded as finding a backer for their son.Even if the son is such a jerk that he can't stand it anymore, he has to make full use of the value of his daughter to add more protection to his son.

But why haven't these people thought about the truth that mountains will fall when they are backed by mountains, and water will flow when they are backed by water?When a daughter marries into someone else's family, she is a member of another family, and she has to obey the orders of her husband and in-laws.At that time, maybe these people will have to scold their daughters at home for their incompetence, so they can't move the whole family of their in-laws to their mother's house.

If it turns out that Baochai still thinks that Father Xue is a rare understanding person in the Xue family, and has different expectations for him, how much hope he had at the beginning, and how much disappointment he has now—it turns out that Father Xue can listen Baochai's persuasion was simply that what she was persuading was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Baochai was only upset for a moment, and had already made a decision in her heart: so be it.Anyway, I was doing it to complete the task, and they were doing it for their family to rely on in the palace, or just to have an excuse to give someone money.Although the purpose is different, the result is destined to be the same.

So what Father Xue saw was that his daughter just lowered her head and thought for a moment, then she raised her head with a smile and said, "If you think the rules in that palace are different from those outside, then please trouble father to find a proper nanny for your daughter. Starting from elementary school is better than cramming."

"Okay, okay." Father Xue was very satisfied: "I know that my chai'er is a person who knows the importance. Although our family is far away from the capital, it is possible to find a nanny for Chai'er. .”

Baochai smiled like a spring flower: "Then I will leave it to my father."
