Mrs. Wang had already received the letter about the Xue family's entry into Beijing, unlike picking up Lin Daiyu and ignoring it, she personally arranged it, the Xue family had a lot of things, opened the middle door early, and led Wang Xifeng to pick them up.

After seeing each other, let Jia Lian lead Xue Pan to see Jia pardon Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang led Aunt Xue's mother and daughter to ask Jia's mother for peace.

Baochai's heart is steady, and now he can't take his eyes off, although the Xue family is rich in millions, the house in Jinling is also beautiful, in the end it can't compare to the solemnity and exquisiteness of the Jia family, I have heard my father say that this mansion was originally the house of the former dynasty's favored eunuch Delong brothers, their brothers collected 10,000 gold to let the court painter build, and the Emperor Kang Yuan rewarded the favored ministers after he conquered the world, and he thought about what kind of beautiful house this should be when he was a child, but when he came here, he felt that his imagination was too vulgar.

Baochai thought that he was the one who wanted to enter the palace to accompany him, it was not good to be so shallow-eyed, neatly dressed, thinking about his mother's teachings, bowing his head and eyebrows, and walking dignified. Mrs. Wang nodded with satisfaction, and the maids and daughters-in-law next to her did not dare to underestimate it.

When I entered Jia's mother's house, I saw an old woman who was several times more noble than her grandmother, surrounded by flowers, and she didn't dare to look at it, so she asked the old woman for peace with her mother.

Mother Jia asked the mandarin duck to help people, saying, "Aunt Xue doesn't have to be polite, her own relatives, it's nothing." ”

Let them and Mrs. Chen, Li Kun waved his hand when he saw Lifang, let Xue Baochai come closer, took her hand, looked at it and said, "This is your daughter, she looks so good, I thought that a few of our family were already good, but I didn't think that God would send me a better one." Hehehe!"

Wang Xifeng said with a smile, "No, two years ago, I sent a fairy-like sister, and the ancestor almost forgot about me, and finally enveloped the ancestor a little, and I didn't dare to ask the ancestor to rest assured, so I wanted the ancestor to remember this monkey, this god sent a peony concubine, hey, my mother, how much time does it take to let the ancestor cast some eyes on me, one year, two years" and counted with that finger.

Everyone laughed, and Jia Mu pointed to her forehead and said, "You monkey, if I don't look at you, are you going to beat God's Heavenly Palace!"

Baochai also laughed, thinking that her mother's niece and nephew were very powerful.

The girl served tea, and everyone used the prescription to ease up.

Mother Jia said to Mrs. Wang's Aunt Xue, "You two sisters haven't seen each other for many years, and I won't keep you anymore, just go and talk about it privately." ”

He pulled Xue Baochai again and said, "You just stay here for a while, your brother Bao and a few sisters will be back soon after school, you can stay with my old wife for a while." Baochai looked at her mother, Aunt Xue knew it, and said with a smile,

"The old lady is blessed to take a fancy to Baochai, Baochai, accompany the old lady well!"

Baochai responded, and said yes.

Mrs. Wang retreated with Aunt Xue, and Li Kun silently followed and left. Jia Mu and Xue Baochai chatted together and asked about Jinling's hometown. On the one hand, Chen did not leave, and chatted with Wang Xifeng about family affairs on the side.

Chen asked, "Did your aunt say how to arrange it?"

"No, my aunt meant to let Aunt Xue live in the mansion so that she could be closer, but I haven't asked my aunt what she means. ”

Mother Jia happened to listen, Mother Jia is a lively person, and said, "If there is anything to ask, go, pass on my words, and let Aunt Xue live in the house." ”

It just so happened that someone came to report that "the second master said that his aunt has a spring and autumn season, and his nephew is young and ignorant of the world, and he lives outside, so he is afraid that something will happen to him." Let the second wife clean a dozen rooms in the northeast corner of Shanglixiangyuan, and ask his aunt and his brother and sister to live. ”

Chen knew that Jia's mother liked this son the most, and complimented, "It's not the old lady's son, they all want to go together." "A few words of compliment, a few words of joy for Jia's mother is also worth it.

Jia Mu really smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Good, good, good!"

Chen Shi saw that the time was not early, and said, "Old lady, the girls are about to get out of school, and the daughter-in-law and Feng Yatou will go to prepare for the dust washing banquet for Aunt Xue first."

Jia Muyun, "Go, by the way, Daiyu and Lu are back, and what about Baoyu?"

Chen replied, "Daiyu and Lu haven't come back yet, but they sent the girl to say that they will come back before dinner." Baoyu was called out by the second uncle, and he was still in front of the Xue family brothers!"

Mother Jia, "What's the matter with these two girls, I don't know how to stay at home when they come to the guests." ”

Baochai saw that although Jia's mother was complaining, she was not really angry with them, although she was a little dissatisfied in her heart, she still spoke, "The two sisters are afraid that they haven't gotten the news that we are coming, and it has rained heavily in the Qian'er River, and it has been delayed for a few days, so it is our fault that the ancestors, aunts, aunts, and sisters and sisters have waited for a long time." ”

When Chen heard this Baochai's words, he knew that this was a thoughtful person. Wang Xifeng is the most good at livening up the atmosphere, saying, "No, these two girls really don't know, don't you just get the news that Miss Xue is here, I'm afraid that the girl will say that she will come back before dinner." ”

He tugged on Chen's sleeve and said, "Okay, my good wife, if you don't prepare it again, you won't have dinner, you will be hungry for the old ancestor, and you will stop the mouth of Sister Lin and Fourth Sister." Chen also knew that Wang Xifeng was to entertain Jia's mother, and he didn't care about her offense, so he cooperated with pulling his sleeves and pretending that he couldn't pull it out.

Jia Mu looked at Le He from above, and said to Chen, "Go ahead, this monkey, don't get used to her too much." ”

He reprimanded Wang Xifeng again, "Don't rely on your mother-in-law's good temperament and make a little petty nature." ”

Chen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said yes and left. Listening to Xue Baochai's voice of Jia Mu laughing from afar, I thought, I am afraid that there is another favorite in the house.

Not long after, the two sisters came to welcome the spring and visit the spring, and they greeted each other with Baochai, talking and laughing. Then, Wang Xifeng personally came to ask for a banquet and asked Jia's mother to move.

Mother Jia took the three girls to the main hall of the front yard. Although Baoyu wanted to sit at the table of his sisters and sisters, his father didn't dare to move, although he didn't like Xue Pan, who was chubby like him, when Baoyu wanted him to inquire about her sister, he poured it out like pouring beans, and Baoyu chatted with him about Sister Bao's time.

On the other side, Lin Daiyu and Jia Lu arrived before the final banquet. Aunt Xue's mother and daughter saw Daiyu and Jia Lu finish their salute casually, and naturally did it on the empty seat next to Jia's mother, and the two sisters and the people around them looked extremely natural about this, knowing that this was Lin Daiyu, the daughter of Aunt Lin's family, who was very loved by Mother Jia, and Jia Lu, the eldest lady in Ningguo's mansion.
