Chapter Fifty-Seven: Baochun's Family Affairs!

Sun Langzhong is right, Miss's ability to provoke right and wrong is indeed extraordinary. Lao Meng couldn't help but sigh.

Baochun was speechless, sitting at home behind closed doors, and the disaster could still smash the door, what could she do? Seeing Lao Meng's sad face, he comforted, don't you all say that our emperor is a holy monarch? Will the Holy Monarch have anything to do with us insignificant little people?

Lao Meng shook his head and sighed, I hope so.

Baochun was reading a book in the house when he heard a voice in the courtyard outside.

Lanxiang, what are you doing here? It's the voice of the eldest aunt Tian.

Just listen to Lan Xiang greet her, is the eldest lady coming? I'll make some pickles and wait until it's hot for dinner.

This is bamboo shoots, right? Why is it so tender, so much? Lan Xiang is really capable, the people in my yard are not as good as you, I have never been able to buy such good bamboo shoots back, so much, I can't finish eating, it is better to pickle them. Tian said.

It's not bought, it's given by someone else. Lan Xiang replied to her, the eldest lady is here to find my young lady, right?

Yes, it's nothing important, just come and see her, she has no mother since she was a child, and now she has a child, and life is not easy......

Baochun didn't wait for her to continue, she opened the curtain and walked out, the eldest aunt is here? If there is anything to send someone to command, I will go to you, it is not warm this day, but it is my sin to be freezing.

The eldest aunt is not papery, so I can't stand the cold, besides, the weather is not bad today, I will come out to you for a walk, call you back, this yard aunt has not come to see it, now this look, I found that this yard is really good, according to me, your mother's yard is not comparable. Tian looked left and right, and sighed.

Baochun didn't answer her words, turned his head and called Lanxiang to make tea.

Since this Tian clan entered this courtyard, he was full of taste.

The garden is planted with hardy greenery and flowers, lush, and on the other side, there is also a single separate field for martial arts training, swords and sticks, but everything is complete.

Look at the surrounding furnishings, furniture, isn't that elaborate?

A woman who gave birth to a child out of wedlock and was divorced by her in-laws should have been sunk in the pond, but she lived a very comfortable life, and the third child was too eccentric.

Auntie, please be seated. Bao Chun led her to sit down in the house.

Baochun greeted quietly, and secretly guessed, why did this aunt come here today? If she really cares about her orphans and widows as she said, then as soon as they return to the General's Mansion, she should come over to see it, and it will not be delayed until more than half a year to come to see it.

Plainly, Baochun has also heard about this aunt.

This Tian family, the background is not high, and his father is only an insignificant petty official, married to Shen Duchang, the boss of the Shen family, the general's mansion at that time had not yet declined, and it was prosperous for a while, it was really a high marriage.

The reason why he married her was that Mr. Shen considered that his son had no outstanding ability, and he married a powerful mother, afraid that his son would not be able to control it, and he would be bullied and oppressed, and his family would have no peace.

But his background is low, but he doesn't necessarily have a small heart.

After the Tian family got married, although her husband's ability was mediocre, the general's mansion was in great power, and after the old man was a hundred years old, the housekeeper would not wait for her turn.

But he didn't want to, the old man was too biased, and directly passed the position of head of the family to the third child.

This is really a bamboo basket for water, and the daughter-in-law has not become a mother-in-law, can she not be angry?

But no matter how angry you are, you can only endure it in your heart, who called the third child to read with the emperor, and the emperor likes it?

didn't want to, but the third child went wrong in the middle, fell out of favor, was shelved by the emperor, and became an idler.

As the saying goes, the tree fell and scattered, and the general's mansion fell into a slump and slowly declined.

The declining General's Mansion made the idea of Tian suppressing pop up.

Although she has no destiny to be the master of the house in this life, it does not mean that her son does not.

The old man can ignore the rules and let the third child take care of the housekeeper, why can't he let her son take care of the house?

Besides, Shen Yan's rabbit cub was still born to a concubine and was born from a humble background, how could she compare with her son? Besides, that's still a fool, so old, he can't even read all the words, and he is not an idle eater when he grows up.

Those bamboo shoots outside, if the eldest aunt likes to eat them, she will take some back. Baochun instructed Lan Xiang to fill her some.

Lan Xiang reluctantly responded, these fresh bamboo shoots were picked by the young lady's patients on the mountain, for those who were extremely poor, in addition to minimizing the cost, the Gui Ji Tang also let them have money to pay back, these people were grateful, so they sent some souvenirs or something, although it was not worth a few dollars, but it was precious in the heart, Lan Xiang thought fiercely, even if she poured it out, she didn't want to give her food.

That's a good feeling, the eldest aunt is not polite to you, wait for you to go, I'll take some back. Tian looked around again, you are really good here, and this snack, it is exquisite, delicious, and it is about to catch up with the imperial dining room, you girl Lan Xiang is really capable, unlike the aunt's house, all of them are lazy to do, clumsy, and can't do anything well, you say, why don't I have such a capable girl as Lan Xiang?

Lan Xiang glared at her behind her back, bared her teeth, and waved her fist at her, what do you mean by this, do you still want her to do it?

Not to mention that the dim sum was not made by her, but brought by Bai Dingshan, that is, she has this craft, is it difficult for her to make it for her to eat?

Did my aunt eat snacks from the imperial dining room? Baochun raised his eyebrows and asked.

The eldest aunt waved her hand hurriedly, no, no, I was just making an analogy, an analogy.

Bao Chun smiled.

The eldest aunt was busy slapping her mouth, she was really confused, this is what we can compare casually, sin, sin.

Lan Xiang shook her fist behind Tian's back, Baochun glared at her, and she said, I'm going to prepare lunch, and the little young master and the fifth young master should come back for dinner.

Bao Chun nodded.

Tian ate another piece, the size of a finger, and a dim sum with a pattern, drank a sip of water, and said, your sister is really good enough to Xiao Wu, I heard that he is about to eat and live with you, and the relationship between your sister and brother is really good, unlike the two in my family, who almost don't have anything to say when they meet.

Aunt is polite, but I have children here, and children like to play together. Bao Chun said with a smile.

This Tian family doesn't get into the topic, and she doesn't take the initiative to mention it, if you go around, I will accompany you around.

Tian said for a long time, I really couldn't find the words, so I had to say, your father loves you, but he can't hurt you for a lifetime, what about women, after all, they have to find a home, there is a person who knows cold and hot to rely on for you, stronger than anything else, you have wasted your life, lonely and old, we are all women, we know the suffering of women, our Shen family is such a daughter as you, watching you suffer, the eldest aunt can't bear it......

Baochun sobbed, what did she want to do?

The eldest aunt is strict, I am very good here, besides, I have a son, how can I die alone?

Son? The son is going to marry a daughter-in-law after all, and if he marries a daughter-in-law, then remember you as a mother, listening to the eldest aunt is right, if there is a good marriage, you can't miss it...... Tian talked about this endlessly.

Bao Chun winked at Lan Xiang, who opened the curtain.

Lan Xiang immediately understood, coughed dryly, opened the curtain and walked in, Miss, didn't you promise the little master to make yellow stewed chicken today? If you don't prepare, it's too late.

Baochun patted his head, look at me, patronizing and talking, I actually forgot about it, Lanxiang, you too, don't you see that I am talking to my aunt, and I will do the same tomorrow?

But the little young master, he ...... Lan Xiang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Baochun, okay, okay, it's not an important thing, just coax the child well, if he loses his temper, let him make trouble? Who hasn't broken their promise?

Tian next to him didn't say what he should have said, his face couldn't help but stiffen, so he had to get up, since he promised the child, he could break his promise lightly, how can the child believe you in the future, go quickly, anyway, the eldest aunt has nothing to do here, and it's not too late to talk about it another day.

Auntie, what are you anxious about? Why don't you just eat here? Lan Xiang made a fish, a pork ribs, and I made a chicken, and it was complete. Baochun said.

It's okay not to say it, the more Tian goes, the faster he goes, this Tian has always had a bad stomach, so he can eat such a big fish and meat dish.

When they left, the smiles on the faces of the master and servant were gone.

What does she want to do? Lan Xiang said angrily.

Who wants to do what? Aunt Zhou entered the hospital and answered, looked at the looks of the two, and said suspiciously, On the way here, I seem to see the eldest lady going out from here? Here she comes?

It's not her. Lan Xiang snorted, saying that she came to see my young lady, and in the end, she actually said something, if there is a good marriage, let my young lady not miss it, it is better to have a good father, it is better to have a good husband, I don't know what kind of heart I pressed.

Baochun looked at Aunt Zhou, why did Aunt Zhou come over?

Aunt Zhou sighed, oh, I made a few pairs of shoes for you and a little wine, come over and let you try to see if it fits.

You make shoes and clothes, look carefully, don't I have orchids? Baochun's heart was hot.

Lan Xiang does other things, these fine words, can she compare to me? Aunt Zhou said.

Lan Xiang smiled, Miss, don't say it, these needlework, I am really not as skilled as Aunt Zhou.

By the way, what did you just say about a good marriage? Aunt Zhou asked again.

That is, the eldest lady came to the door coldly and came to persuade the young lady to find a home, this eldest lady is really strange, I haven't seen her care about my young lady very much...... Lan Xiang said.

Aunt Zhou sighed, she was not cold.

Baochun and Lanxiang were both stunned.

Let's go, go into the house and say. Aunt Zhou said.

After entering the house, Aunt Zhou spoke, I also heard it, and I didn't know if it was true or not, so I didn't dare to tell you, I heard people say that your mother found you an in-law......

In-law? Bao Chun and Lan Xiang exclaimed at the same time.

Who else dares to marry me? Bao Chun was even more surprised by this.

So what does this have to do with the eldest lady? Lan Xiang also asked.

How does it matter? Aunt Zhou said, the eldest young master Shen Jin, seems to have climbed up to Wang Shilang and is ready to marry his daughter, Gao Pan, just thinking about the dowry, but you also know that the General's Mansion has been operating with money over the years......

So, the eldest aunt hit me with the idea and used my dowry as a façade, which means that the in-laws that my mother found me are quite rich? Bao Chun's mouth opened wide.

Lan Xiang spat on the side, and knew that the weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he didn't have any good intentions, my young lady is like this, and you still want to sell my young lady?

According to them, the family was very wealthy. Aunt Zhou said.

Are people still willing? That's how I took my son? Baochun was simply stunned.

Coincidentally, this person wanted to find someone with a child because he couldn't have children. Aunt Zhou said.

There is also this, Baochun's eyeballs are about to come out.

Just listened to what they said, and they didn't say anything. Aunt Zhou said.

This Wang Shilang should be from the prince's side, right? Marry their family, uncle, what are they going to do? Baochun immediately thought of the powerful relationship.

Aunt Zhou sighed, they just wanted to go up, and then press us so that the eldest young master could take over the family.

Just now, the eldest lady was provoking, saying that the fifth young master is always with us, and I am afraid that I will not recognize my own mother in the future. Lan Xiang said.

Speaking of this, Aunt Zhou knelt down busily, Third Miss, you can't believe her words, care, you really feel Shen Yan, I can't feel this, Shen Yan has been by your side since Shen Yan, the whole person has changed, and his brain has also opened up, I wish he was here with you every day, with you to teach him, I can rest assured, Shen Yan's changes, they must also see it in their eyes, so they want to provoke, I wish Shen Yan didn't learn and didn't know, Third Miss, my aunt is grateful to you in my heart, and my aunt has no ability, no knowledge, I want to do my best in your food, clothing, shelter and transportation......

Baochun hurriedly helped Aunt Zhou up, not being educated is not necessarily a bad thing, some people are too smart, but it is easy to cause trouble.

Two days after the eldest aunt came, the old lady sent someone to call her over.

Baochun wondered at first, according to the old lady's dislike of her, didn't she wish she was far away? Why did you take the initiative to call her over today?

When I got to the place, I saw that everyone was there, and I suddenly understood, and my heart said, Bacheng was said by Aunt Zhou.

The old lady sat on the top seat, and behind her stood Yahuan.

The bottom are the eldest aunt Tian, the second aunt Zheng, and the general's wife Cui.

The ladies and daughters of the family are all here.

Baochun said hello one by one and found a corner to sit.

Cui Shi glanced at Baochun and said to the old lady, Baochun, this child is still young, can't just take the child like this, otherwise, the whole life will not be delayed? If it is delayed, isn't it my fault as a mother that I have not fulfilled my responsibilities?

After a pause, she added,...... When the daughter-in-law was worried, someone happened to find me here, to Baochun to say kiss, that family is a family surnamed Xu on the edge of the capital, the wife died of illness for a year, the family is rich, people also agreed to take the child, the person just can't have children, said that the child went, it should be treated as a biological child, the family business is naturally left to him, the daughter-in-law listened, the heart was happy, busy people to probe, found that this is indeed the case, and the person is also good-looking, not very old, just thirty years old, the daughter-in-law does not dare to call the shots, specially to ask the old lady's opinion.

As soon as Cui's words fell, the eldest aunt Tian said that this is a good family, although it is a house, but it is no different from a wife, anyway, this person will not have children, and if you want to have a person who supports the elderly and sends her to the end, she will treat our family's wine......

Under her boasting, this Xu family is simply difficult to find with lanterns, and it is not a problem to marry a famous lady, and if you can take a fancy to our family Baochun, it is also stained with the light of a child.

The old lady took a sip of tea, looked at Cui's and Tian's, and then asked the second aunt Zheng, what do you think?

Zheng said that Baochun's marriage is different from others, especially to be cautious, the daughter-in-law thinks that the general should investigate and survey before making a decision, if there is really something, not only ruined Baochun, but also ruined the child.

Tian snorted coldly next to him, but Zheng didn't hear it.

The old lady asked Cui's family, does the third child know about this?

Cui Shi replied, he still has a few days to come back, but he has already sent a letter.

The old lady glanced at Baochun, and got up with the support of Yahuan, I, I'm old, and I've long been gone, so you can do it yourself.

That means she doesn't care.

Baochun was also angry, from beginning to end, these people didn't ask her.

This is the words of the matchmaker of the parents!

Coming out of the old lady's place, the second aunt chased after him from behind and instructed, "You have to tell General Sù about this matter quickly."

But my father went far away, and he couldn't come back for ten days and a half months. Baochun said.

Why do you say that this is not early or late, and why is it just in time for this juncture. Zheng couldn't help but be annoyed.

It wasn't necessarily my father's coincidence. Bao Chun means something.

Zheng was stunned, isn't it, go back and let your second uncle send someone to look for it, and come back as soon as you find it, this is a big deal. As he spoke, he turned around and left.

Her second aunt was born in Jiangmen, so she always speaks and does things so neatly and capably.

Without waiting for Baochun to say anything, the person was gone.

As soon as Baochun returned to the courtyard and said, everyone was very angry.

If the general is at home, see if they dare or not. Uncle Ma said fiercely.

My father is not at home, and I am, if my third sister is unwilling to marry, I will block the door, come one to kill one, come two to kill a pair, and see who dares to come to the door. The fat black boy said with his chest puffed up.

Bao Chun slapped him aside, wait until you practice kung fu.

Shen Yan touched his head and pulled the wine outside, why aren't you in a hurry? Is my mother ready to marry you all?

Xiaojiu glanced at him.

The fat black boy sighed and squatted on the stone bench, are you all gone? So what do I do? Why don't I marry with you?

Xiao Jiuxin said, what a fool, touched Rhubarb's head and said, she won't get married.

I heard that the family was not bad. Shen Yan said.

Xiaojiu glared at him, on money, we are not nothing, in terms of kung fu, he may not be able to beat you? What's the use?

When the fat black boy heard that it made sense, he smashed his fist on the stone table, that is.

Shen Cheng heard about this, got out of school, and hurried over, do you really want to get married?

Just take care of yourself, it's almost the exam, what are you running around? I'll ask Lan Xiang to send you some medicinal herbs to make up for it, and look at this little face. Baochun said.

The innocent child was even more ashamed, after all, his mother was very supportive.

Okay, I have my own measure in this matter, I don't want to, no one can force me, by the way, how are you doing with your studies? Baochun asked.

The boy lowered his head, and the gentleman said that I couldn't do it well......

Asking, Baochun knows, that is, his views and suggestions on the current affairs of the imperial court today.

She said, you are only 16 years old, how much knowledge and experience can you have, talk about the border, talk about the political malpractices of the DPRK, these big aspects, it must be nothing, empty and powerless, it is better to start from a small aspect, what you are familiar with, what happens around you, even if you can't get a high score, you won't give people a high-minded, far unrealistic and unstable image......

After listening to the third sister's nagging, Shen Cheng suddenly opened his mouth, and he was so excited that he almost didn't come forward to hug him, every time he talked to the third sister, he benefited a lot......

Baochun pushed him away, okay, okay, don't drag the text, hurry back and review your homework.

The old lady is not in charge, Baochun's heart is a lot more stable, no matter how much the Cui family is excessive, he will not dare to cross the general's father, if the general's father knows, he will not agree.

But who knew that this Cui family had another calculation.

On this day, Baochun was just about to go out, but was blocked by Cui's Mama Li, saying that the general's wife wanted to see her.

Baochun had no choice but to follow Mama Li.

When I entered the house, there was a living person, and my eldest brother Shen Jin was talking with him.

When Cui Shi saw her come in, he hurriedly said, what are you doing there? Don't come in yet.

Bao Chunxin said, can this door be entered lightly? Even a fool knows who is talking to Shen Jin? What are they trying to do when they bring people into their homes?

Want to create a pleasant, consensual meeting between the two parties?

Baochun was about to faint or something, so that Lan Xiang could help her back, but Mama Li in the back pushed her hard and pushed her directly into the house.

This old woman is simply very bad, Bao Chunxin said.

This is Xu Gongzi, your eldest brother's friend, you also come over to say hello. Cui Shi said quietly.

The surname is Xu, and it can't be wrong, but the appearance is Zhou Zheng, and the age is not bad, about thirty, when she came in, this person's eyes never moved from her, from the head to the feet, deep and deep.

Baochun stepped forward and gave a salute.

Sure enough, as soon as she came, Shen Jin and Cui's left under the pretext of excuse.

There were only two people left in the room.

This Xu Gongzi picked up the conversation, Miss Shen, you don't have to worry, if you marry into my Xu family, Xu will not let you be wronged, let alone care about those gossips, I will be my own child......

If you want to be your own child, then you have to ask if my son is willing, Baochun sneered in his heart, but asked on his lips, when did Mrs. Zun die? What disease did you die?

The surnamed Xu Baochun opened his mouth to ask this, why did the young lady ask like this?

Baochun said, it's good to ask clearly, I also suffered from illness in the past of the province, so a good thing has become a bad thing.

That Xu Gongzi's face was gloomy, she was not in good health, she was weak and sickly since she was a child, you don't have to worry about this.

When Bao Chunguan said this, it didn't seem as natural as just now, didn't it? Are you in a good relationship?

That Xu Gongzi was patient and hesitated, very good.

It turned out to be a deep love between the couple, I read idle books, I saw some birds, husband and wife have deep feelings, one is dead, the other will not live alone, people's feelings are the same as birds, even if they don't go to martyrdom, they can't live for ten or eight years, of course, some of them are filial piety for three years and don't marry, if Xu Gongzi really likes me, then I am willing to wait for Xu Gongzi for two years...... Baochun said.

The face surnamed Xu was already blue, and he didn't squeak for a long time, and Bao Chuntuo left, which can be said to be unhappy.

When I walked to the door, I met Shen Jin, who was about to go in, and said hello to her, I see that Xu Gongzi is very satisfied with you, here, the eldest brother is going to congratulate his sister.

Baochun was happy at him, if you want to say congratulations, it should be the younger sister to congratulate the eldest brother, Wang Shilang's daughter heard that she is as beautiful as a flower, gentle and virtuous, and really good fate, but this wife is not only married to this beautiful flower, but also to be careful of the poisonous snake under the flower, the team is not so easy to stand.

With the emperor here, which team are you standing on, aren't you dragging the whole family to die together?

Shen Jin gritted his teeth angrily behind his back.
