Chapter 60: Min and the Sixtieth Chapter
As soon as Lin Daiyu set off, Xue Baochai's family arrived in the capital.
Her mother and daughter did not go to the other courtyard in the capital, but went directly to Rongguo Mansion and went to Mrs. Wang.
The so-called good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, although they are far away in the capital, but what happened to the Xue family, Jia Fu has already heard about it.
But Aunt Xue is also Mrs. Wang's sister-in-law, and she can't turn away if she really comes to visit.
It's just that compared to the previous hospitality, this time it was really much simpler, the mother and daughter entered directly from the small door, and there was no one to greet them at the door.
But Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai could only endure it, who let them lose their identity as imperial merchants.
As soon as Aunt Xue saw Mrs. Wang, she immediately burst into tears, only saying that why her life was so bitter, and it didn't matter if Mrs. Wang really wanted to hear it.
Before the bitterness was finished, Mrs. Wang became a little impatient, "This is fate." She said such a sentence from beginning to end, obviously not wanting to get involved in the Xue family's affairs.
The reason why she was so close to Aunt Xue in the past was that the two were indeed sisters-in-law, and secondly, although the Xue family was a merchant, at least it was an imperial businessman, and the power in her hands was small, but she was rich.
And although the Jia family is said to be a big family, but when it comes to this money, it is really not much, and it has reached the limit to feed so many people with that little industry alone.
Otherwise, this Jia's mother can't rush to take Lin Daiyu over, the Jia family has begun to decline, and she must take refuge in a big tree to survive, and Lin Ruhai is the golden thigh who is targeted by the Jia family.
Every time Aunt Xue came before, she would give her sister some silver taels more or less, which was considered to please the Jia family, although this Jia Mansion had little power in the court, but it was still much stronger than the Xue family, a merchant family.
Because of Aunt Xue's help, Mrs. Wang has a lot of money, and her position in Rongguo Mansion is stable, unlike that Mrs. Xing, who is obviously a big house, and she has a small family spirit everywhere.
Although Jia Mu doesn't treat anyone well, when she has no choice, she still seems to have more of a second room.
Seeing Mrs. Wang's attitude, Aunt Xue was not stupid, she touched her tears with a silk handkerchief, then sighed, and then said, "Fortunately, the shop in Beijing is still there, so that it will not become homeless." ”
"And the shop?" Mrs. Wang said silently in her heart, and her face suddenly softened, "I heard a while ago that the Xue family's wealth was taken away by that little white-eyed wolf named Xue Chen, and my sister still hid it privately?" ”
The rumor was like this, and in the end, although some of it was true, the rest of it was infinitely exaggerated, just like this Xue family.
This matter was originally the Xue family changed hands, and it became Xue Chen who was in charge, and Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai took half of the family wealth, but it was rumored that the mother and daughter of the Xue family were robbed of all their family wealth and swept away.
It's not a little bit exaggerated, which is why Mrs. Wang will treat Aunt Xue coldly, Aunt Xue who has no money is a burden in her eyes.
"Just leave the shops in those small places to him to take care of." Aunt Xue said, although this statement is also adulterated, but it is just to maintain that half of the face.
"Why did that sister suddenly come to the capital?" Mrs. Wang seemed to be the same person she used to be, she held Aunt Xue's hand, and asked with a concerned face, but there was still three points of doubt in this tone.
Aunt Xue sighed, her eyes turned red again, "I don't want to stay in that sad place, but fortunately I came to the capital." ”
Seeing Aunt Xue like this, Mrs. Wang's eyes also reddened, "Don't mention these sad things, since you have come to the capital, you will stay in the house for a few more days." ”
Aunt Xue shook her head, "Why are you embarrassed to disturb my sister, the Xue family has several houses in the capital, just let Baochai and I go to live there." ”
"That house still needs to be repaired by someone, how can it take some time, you and my sister, what are you doing outside?" Mrs. Wang pretended to be angry and said.
Aunt Xue was a little "hesitant", and finally said, "Then I will bother my sister." ”
"There's a sister at home."
Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue were talking about "sisterhood" when they were interrupted by a sudden remark.
Mrs. Wang smiled dotingly, looked at Jia Baoyu who came in from outside, and saw that he was wearing a silver and red half-worn coat with flowers, still wearing a collar, Baoyu, a name lock, a talisman and other things, a half-dew pine flower sprinkled silk trouser legs, brocade elastic ink socks, and thick-soled red shoes.
The face is like powder, and the lips are like grease, just looking at this appearance is really excellent.
"Jin Chuan, go get the sour plum juice with ice." Mrs. Wang commanded, and looked at her phoenix eggs dotingly.
Jia Baoyu wiped his face casually with a sweat towel, and the person greeted him.
"This sister has never seen it." He said to Xue Baochai with a smile on his face, the gentleness of this smile made Xue Baochai blush all of a sudden, how to say that it is a woman raised in the boudoir, except for his brother, Xue Baochai rarely deals with strange men.
"What sister." Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Baoyu dotingly, with a smile in her words, "This is your sister Baochai." ”
Jia Baoyu's eyes widened, with a playful face, "It turned out to be Sister Bao, I actually recognized it as my sister, I really deserve to be punished." As he spoke, he picked up Xue Baochai's hand and hit the corner of his mouth.
Jia Baoyu and the maids in the mansion are used to making trouble, and they feel that there is nothing wrong with it, but Xue Baochai has been treated like this, and he blushed at the moment, because of the incident in Xue Mansion a while ago, Xue Baochai's whole person has lost a lot of weight, and the original round face also has a pointed chin, and his body is also thin, which makes people feel distressed when they look good.
At this time, she was adding that blushing face, which suddenly made Jia Baoyu obsessed, and the little hand on her face was also tender and tender, Xue Baochai pulled back, but Jia Baoyu was already holding on, and her hand was clenched tightly, so she didn't let go.
If it was an ordinary family, seeing such a scene, as the eldest lady in the backyard, she would have been angry, it would have made Jia Baoyu so nonsense, but when it came to Mrs. Wang, she didn't care at all.
The current Mrs. Wang is such a baby bump, she is too late to feel distressed, how can she be willing to accuse her phoenix egg.
is saying that this Xue Baochai is Jia Baoyu's cousin, even if this action is more intimate, it is nothing.
And Aunt Xue already had the intention of letting Xue Baochai get closer to Jia Baoyu, and she didn't care when she saw the two of them so close.
To say that the current Xue family, although they have lost the imperial merchants and scattered half of their family wealth, their strength is not bad, why did this Aunt Xue fall in love with this Jia Baoyu.
It is said that this Aunt Xue is very superstitious, she heard that this Jia Baoyu was born in Lingyu, so she concluded that this person must have great blessings in the future, and in addition to the relationship between herself and Mrs. Wang, Xue Baochai will not suffer if she really marries Jia Baoyu.
The mother and daughter of the Xue family lived in this Jia Mansion, knowing what their mother meant, Xue Baochai did not refuse, after all, this Jia Baoyu's appearance, as long as it is a woman, she will like it, and with his tenderness and sweetness, within a few days, this Xue Baochai has completely fallen.
Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai are fighting hotly here, and Lin Daiyu has also arrived in the capital over there.
Like in her previous life, Lin Daiyu took a sedan chair to Rongguo Mansion, and did not enter through the gate, but only entered the west corner gate. The palanquin man carried him in, and walked a shot, and when he was about to turn, he stopped and withdrew.
The mothers-in-law in the back had all gotten off the sedan chair, rushed forward, and changed into three or four well-dressed seventeen or eighteen-year-old servants who came up and lifted the sedan chair again.
Lin Daiyu looked at the familiar Qiē in front of her, and she didn't have the amazing appearance of the year, she was generous at this time, and she was not as cautious as in her previous life.
On the top of the platform, there were a few girls dressed in red and green, and when they saw them coming, they hurriedly greeted them with a smile and said, "The old lady was still reading it just now, but it happened to come." ”
So three or four people scrambled to open the curtain cage, and while hearing someone reply: "Miss Lin has arrived." ”
Lin Daiyu had a faint smile on her face, this smile did not penetrate into her eyes, she nodded towards the pearl and mandarin duck at the door, and walked into the house.
As soon as I stepped in, I heard Jia's mother's voice with a crying voice, "My heart and liver, come to my grandmother." ”
When she encountered such a scene in her previous life, Lin Daiyu's eyes immediately turned red, but in this life, she is very calm, I have to say that her grandmother is really good at acting, and she can cry so much even if she has no feelings.
The people who were waiting around him watched this old ancestor cry, and they also echoed it, and they all hid their faces and wept, this scene really looked like crying.
Lin Daiyu walked in front of Jia's mother, separated her by a distance, and leaned over to say goodbye.
"My heart, liver, and flesh have grown so big, and Min'er is really the same." Jia Mu cried as she spoke, she wanted to take Lin Daiyu into her arms, but she didn't want the two to be separated by a person, so she could only give up, but the cry was getting louder and louder.
It stands to reason that Lin Daiyu at this time pretended to cry a few times, but this fairy dew is precious, and it hurts her body when she cries, Lin Daiyu has no interest in acting with her.
"Grandmother, if she cries and hurts her body, Yu'er will become a sinner." Seeing that the people around her were busy acting, Lin Daiyu could only comfort herself, this cry was really annoying.
Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing on the side heard Lin Daiyu speak, calculating that this scene was enough, rubbing the corners of their eyes with a silk handkerchief, and comforting together, Mother Jia also gave enough attention to the steps, so she stopped crying.
It seems that the only person in this room who is not crying is Lin Daiyu, seeing that Jia's mother face is a little ugly, but Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing on the side are gloating.
This play is not successful, what if it is his own granddaughter, people do not cooperate.
cried and cried, Jia's mother ordered someone to serve tea fruits, and a room full of people chatted about homely things.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the maid came in and smiled: "Baoyu is here!" ”
