Chapter 20

Fortunately, Xue Baochai is Xue Baochai, but after being sad for two days, he quickly recovered. On this day, Aunt Xue carried a bowl of bird's nest, "Good boy, get up and drink some!" ”

Xue Baochai sat up with her clothes on, with a familiar and dignified smile on her face, "Mom, what are you doing, just let Ying'er bring it, why bother Mom!" Then he took the bowl and looked at it, it was a blood swallow, and he couldn't help frowning, "Mom, it's okay to use white swallows, why use blood swallows!" Blood swallows are rare, and it is good to keep them for others in the future. ”

Aunt Xue smiled, "Silly child, to my mother, nothing is more precious than you." As long as you're well, don't talk about blood swallows, you can ask for my meat. ”

Xue Baochai's nose was a little sour, and then she lowered her head when she drank bird's nest, she didn't want Aunt Xue to see her vulnerability. Being disqualified this time is really the biggest blow in her life, which is why she is so out of shape.

"Hai'er, yesterday your aunt came to me about something, about your life." Aunt Xue said hesitantly, looking at Xue Baochai's expression as she spoke, hoping that she could see something on her face.

Xue Baochai paused with the hand holding the spoon, and then finished drinking the bird's nest porridge slowly, Ying'er brought water to rinse her mouth at the right time, and then wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, "Mom, please speak." ”

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Your aunt hired you for Baoyu." ”

Xue Baochai's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he looked up at Aunt Xue, "Mom, what are you talking about, I'm two years older than Baoyu!" What's more, Jia Baoyu was not in his sight from beginning to end! Even if you can't make a small election, you can't look down on someone like Jia Baoyu!

"My son! What does it matter if you are older, you can control Baoyu when you are older! Think about it, among the four major families of Jia Shiwang and Xue, the Jia family is the first, and the Xue family is the last. The Jia family is the prince of the country, and the Xue family is just a housekeeper, and in terms of identity, we were originally high. And Baoyu's temperament is the most gentle, in the future, you will be together in the future, it will be much better than the man who gets drunk and beats his wife! Moreover, your aunt personally promised me that in the future, the Rongguo Mansion will be inherited by Baoyu! Aunt Xue said proudly.

This last sentence completely hit Xue Baochai's heart, the mistress of Rongguo Mansion, will she live in the magnificent Rongxi Hall like her aunt? No, she is a little better than her aunt, she lives in Rongxi Hall openly, she is an upright hostess!

Xue Baochai did not doubt Mrs. Wang's words, as smart as her, she had already gained insight into the shape of Jiafu, the big house was weak, the second room was rising, and the uncle was promoted to the capital of the nine provinces, not to mention that the big house has no heirs so far, the second room already has Jia Lan, and Jia Baoyu is the heart of the old lady, so it seems that the possibility of the second room getting the title is very great.

Xue Baochai quickly thought in his heart, indeed, what my mother said was right, this was already my best way out.

"My son, what do you mean, you say it, I also have a score in my heart!" Aunt Xue asked anxiously.

When Xue Baochai heard this, he blushed, "Mom, what are you talking about!" Since ancient times, marriage has been the order of parents, and the words of the matchmaker have no reason for the daughter's family to make their own decisions. Although the mother is in charge, the daughter listens to the mother. ”

Aunt Xue's eyes lit up, knowing that Xue Baochai agreed with her, she was overjoyed, "Great, then I'll tell your aunt to go!" Good daughter, you are so resting. With that, he hurried away.

Xue Baochai sighed when she saw Aunt Xue leave, and Ying'er looked at Xue Baochai puzzled, "Girl, why are you sighing?" ”

Xue Baochai shook his head, "It's nothing, what about my brother?" ”

Ying'er shook her head, "I don't know, it seems to be out." I haven't been back for a few days. ”

Xue Baochai sighed, pulled the quilt up, his chest was stuffy and a little painful, and he covered his mouth and coughed a few times. "Ying'er, you will bring another cold incense pill."

The warbler should be crisp, and then go down.

Xue Baochai's heart was complicated, his brother was a horse without a halter, uncontrolled, and straight, and he would get into trouble if he was instigated. The road to the palace seems to be impossible, and at present, only by attaching to the Jia Mansion and taking advantage of the power of the Jia family and the Wang family can he protect his brother! That's it, my mother wants to promote this, and Baoyu is such a gentle character, although it is a little soft and glutinous, but it is okay to do this, so that there is room for her own play. Moreover, there is an aunt in front of her who paves the way for herself, and when the time comes, Baoyu will inherit the title, and she will be the rightful mistress of the Jia family, and she will eventually become a person like an old lady! When the time comes, I will find a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family for my brother, and if I can control my brother, I can also bring the Xue family back in the future, so that the Xue family can be revived and the glory of the ancestors will be restored!

When Xue Baochai thought of this, he was excited in his heart, but his chest tightness was even worse, and his cough was also a lot worse. It happened that Ying'er took the fried cork, saw this and hurriedly put down the cork, took out a wooden box from the cabinet, opened it, and immediately the house was fragrant, Ying'er took a pill and sent it to Xue Baochai, Xue Baochai took the cold incense pill in his mouth and took it with cork soup. Fang just felt better.

"Girl, this cold incense pill really lives up to its name, it smells so good, even the girl is stained."

Xue Baochai gasped for breath before he spoke, "Ying'er, how many cold incense pills are left?" ”

Ying'er thought for a while, "When we brought it from the south, there were a total of thirty-three pills, and in the past few days, the girl was unwell, so she took three pills, and the girl took the third pill." ”

Xue Baochai closed his eyes, "I know, you go down first!" I want to take a break. Ying'er nodded, packed up her things and went out.

Xue Baochai was lying on the bed, but he was tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep. At that time, when the Xue family was in its prime, how much silver was sprinkled, how many people were made, and it took two or three years to complete it, and a total of fifty pills were made, and twenty pills have been lost over the years. When the thirty cold incense pills are finished, what should I do?

Today's Xue family no longer has the financial resources to gather those flowers. Moreover, even if it is really done, there is only one pack of medicine primers given by the monk, where can I find it in the future! When my father was alive, he always taught himself to be calm and self-controlled, hoping to suppress the hot poison brought by the womb with his own strength, and he finally failed his father's education.

Xue Baochai opened his eyes, and today he has already chosen the path he will take in the future, so he must have no distractions and move forward wholeheartedly. It's just a small bump now, and I can't get through it, how can I revive the Xue family in the future?

Xue Baochai made up his mind and began to meditate and recuperate. At the same time, among the people of Jiafu, the rumors of the high-profile golden and jade good fortune began to spread quietly. A few days later, from the mouth of Zhou Rui's family, the miraculous cold incense pill came out. caused Lin Daiyu in Yilan Courtyard to sulk, but fortunately, after the persuasion of Mama Wei and Mama Jiang, she was quickly relieved.

As for Shi Xiangyun, she didn't know about it. Because of this incident, the Shi family's stool was taken to the backyard of Nan'an Wangfu before it was hot.

Looking at the old concubine in front of her, who was looking at her with loving eyes, Shi Xiangyun was a little dazed, this was the first time she knew that she still had something to do with Concubine An.

Concubine Nan'an smiled and beckoned Shi Xiangyun to stand beside her, then took Shi Xiangyun's hand and said with a smile: "I am your mother's cousin, have you ever heard of me?" ”

Shi Xiangyun shook her head honestly, in fact, no one had ever told her about her grandfather's family.

Concubine Nan'an laughed disdainfully, "I think so, she will definitely not tell you about the Zhang family." Princess Nan'an, who was sitting at the bottom, saw that her mother-in-law was stubborn again, and she was busy making a look at her daughter, and the county lord of Shaohua hurriedly stepped forward to pull Concubine Nan'an's arm and coquettishly, "Grandmother, good grandmother, there is such a fairy-like sister, why don't you introduce us to one or two!" ”

Concubine Nan'an smiled, she glanced at her daughter-in-law, and pulled her granddaughter and Shi Xiangyun into her arms, "It is only right that you two sisters should live in harmony." Come, Yun girl, this is your sister Hui, Hui'er, this is your sister Xiangyun. "It's kind of unveiling the topic of Fang Cai.

Shi Xiangyun smiled and saluted the county lord of Shaohua, "Sister Hui." ”

Mu Hui, the lord of Shaohua County, is as his name suggests, he is incomparably smart, and he has long found out from his grandmother's attitude that his grandmother cares about this girl of the historian very much, although he doesn't understand what makes his grandmother so, but as the most favored daughter of Nan'an Palace, Mu Hui has long understood that in Nan'an Palace, grandmother is the one who speaks. There is no other reason, when the old king Nan'an was alive, he spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and wanted to abolish the position of the son of the world several times, so that the son born to the concubine could become the son. Concubine Nan'an suffered hard and tortured, kept her son and daughter safe, and finally survived the old prince to death, and supported her son to ascend to the throne. Because of this suffering, the current king of Nan'an County is very filial and does not dare to disobey his mother at all.

"Sister Yun, don't be polite." Mu Hui hurriedly helped Shi Xiangyun up, "Good sister, how old are you this year?" Have you ever studied? Where's the reading? What do you like to play? But what do you like to eat? ”

Shi Xiangyun answered one by one with a smile, and when Concubine Nan'an saw it, she nodded with a smile, "Yun girl will stay with me for a few more days, Sister Hui, you take good care of your sister Yun." ”

Mu Hui smiled and took Shi Xiangyun's hand and said, "Exactly! Grandmother, I was planning to invite Sister Yun to my Mingyue Pavilion to rest together, so that we sisters could talk together. ”

Sure enough, Concubine Nan'an's eyes became more and more satisfied when she looked at Mu Hui, this is a serious girl from eight hundred years, but she is different from others! Thinking of this, Concubine Nan'an looked at several concubines and concubines with disdain.
