12 (six thousand)

Xue Baochai is a caring person, but he didn't stand by Jia Yuanchun's side, he is also a character who sees and listens to all directions. Even if he didn't hear what Xiaohong said to Jia Yuanchun, he instinctively felt that something had happened. It's just that in addition to his own girl Ying'er Wenxing, only Aunt Xue's girl is happy and noble.

It is a recognized fact that the Xue family is not as good as the Jia family, and the gap is not only because of status, but also because of other aspects, including the girls' Su zhì. The first thing to say is that the two women of the Xue family, whether it is Aunt Xue or Xue Baochai, are the ones who bear the name of everyone's girlfriends, and they have indeed done a good job in many aspects, just like Xue Baochai's ability to manage accounts is top-notch, but they lack the overall situation that everyone must have. It doesn't matter if you are not sensitive enough to the shape of the outside, and you don't know enough about the big shape, that is simply Xue Baochai's death hole.

Similarly, the girls who have been trained by such two heroines are even more unable to show their hands in front of the countless beautiful and clever girls of the Jia family, each with their own strengths. The most outstanding girl in the Xue family is only Ying'er, except for a pair of skillful hands, there is really no place that can be handled.

It is impossible for Xue Baochai to let such a girl run errands and find out news for him, he is not Jia Yuanchun, or the two families have separated, and his grandmother plans for him, and his cousin is going around for him, but the congenital disadvantage does not mean that he has no choice. For example, keeping an eye on Jia Yuanchun is a way.

Xue Baochai's plan Jia Yuanchun didn't know, but Jia Yuanchun knew that Xue Baochai had the same idea as himself, and flew up the branch to become a phoenix. The problem is that you only get one chance. Only one of the two of them can make it happen in the end. Jia Yuanchun will definitely not let Xue Baochai have a chance to climb on his head.

He must have made up his mind in his heart, and Jia Yuanchun also let go of his heart. said to Xue Baochai, who was still busy: "Cousin, you are also tired." Drink a quick saliva. ”

Xue Baochai was holding Jia Lian's clothes and half of them, and saw Jia Yuanchun personally serving him a cup of lime fruit tea, and he was very proud. He is a merchant girl who can let Jia Yuanchun, the eldest daughter of the Jia family and the daughter of the Guogong Mansion raised by Jia's mother, pour tea for him, of course, he has face. It's just that face is face, but Xue Baochai's subordinates don't dare to stop.

"Bothered the big sister. I'll be here for a while, and I'll be fine eating tea when I'm ready. Baoyu's clothes can't be delayed. ”

Jia Mu, who was kneeling on the main seat, said to Aunt Xue: "It's not me who said, Bao Yatou's needlework is really good." There are so many girls in our family, and none of them are as good as Bao Girl. ”

This time, Aunt Xue didn't dare to be proud in front of Mother Jia anymore. Who knows if the girl in Jia's mother's mouth refers to his granddaughter or the maid below?

Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Where, where." Old lady. You're overrated. ”

Jia Mu said: "This is not a lie. Although I am old and dizzy, Baoyu is a picky child, so he can be speechless, and Baoya's needlework is naturally needless to say. I heard that your brother's most annoying thing is those account books, and it is thanks to Bao Girl to help take care of them, so that they will not be a mess. Is this true? ”

When Aunt Xue heard this, her face immediately brought three points of worry: "It's not." Old lady, it's not my mother's excessive modesty, my son. I really can't help it. Although it is said that the second master of the house helps to take care of it, he dozes off every time he gets the books, and the things on the account cabinet are more and more reluctant to pay attention. If it weren't for Bao Ya's help, I'm afraid that my family business would have been ruined by that loser. ”

It is said to be self-humble. Aunt Xue belittled her son so much, what did Xue Pan become? In contrast, Xue Baochai is good. But what does it feel like to hear it in the ears of outsiders? Although Aunt Xue knew that she was not qualified to put on the score, she leaked the bottom in just a few words. Don't talk about Jia Mu, even You Shi feels that something is wrong.

You covered his mouth with a handkerchief. Secretly looked at Jia Mu. He knew that his uncle and grandmother were a very powerful person, but his face was still kind, and he didn't know what kind of idea he had in his heart.

Mother Jia comforted Aunt Xue: "My brother is still young, and when he becomes a family, it will be fine." My boss was like that, too, when I was a kid, and I wanted to get him up and beat him up. But with children, they gradually became more and more presentable. The children and grandchildren here have their own children and grandchildren, and no one knows what will happen in the future. But this is thinking in my heart, since Xue Pan is not a weapon like this, there are only two women in charge of the Xue family, the old ones are confused, and they don't even know when to say anything and what they can't say. With such an opportunity, how could Jia Mu try to take out the Xue family's silver?

It's just that it's not in a hurry now, the most important thing now is to use the Xue family's way to send Jia Yuanchun to the palace.

The Xue family is now unqualified, but their family is still a royal businessman for many years, but the things they do are not outstanding. The question is, how to use the connections of the Xue family to pave the way for his granddaughter.

Jia Mu paused slightly, and said, "Mrs. Auntie, do you know who are the people who came with the nobles in the palace today?" It would be nice if they could let them know and introduce us to one or two. ”

Aunt Xue straightened up and said, "Old lady, I only know that a Xia Shouzhong Xia father-in-law is the person in front of the noble concubine. When the queen mother was pregnant with the dragon son twice, this Xia Gonggong ran errands in front of the concubine and helped with palace affairs. It's just that I heard that the concubine Niangniang has an opinion on the eldest girl in the house, but I'm afraid that even if he has the heart, he can't help the old lady. ”

It's really not wrong to say that Aunt Xue is stupid.

You Shi sat on the side with his head bowed, thinking so in his heart.

Although it is impossible to say that there is no money, but at the level of the Jia family, money is important, but this network is even more important. It can be said that connections are an important bargaining chip for a family to avoid crises in time. Especially now, since this uncle and grandmother-in-law are planning to send their granddaughter to the palace again, and the Jia family is on the cusp now. Using other people's connections has become a necessary first choice. It is unwise for Aunt Xue to confess Xia Shouzhong so lightly. This is one of them. Of course, You didn't think that Aunt Xue would have the brains and guts to lie in front of Mother Jia.

Second. Knowing that Jia Yuanchun left the palace because Concubine Li mentioned Jia Baoyu's jade and Jia Yuanchun's life in front of the emperor and empress, he also mentioned Concubine Li, which is the second proof that Aunt Xue is not smart enough. If I had changed someone else, I would have used more euphemistic words a long time ago, where would I mention Concubine Li in such a stunned manner. Isn't this poking at Jia's mother's weakness?

But You will not open his mouth at this time. He flattered Jia's mother, but because Jia's mother was his cousin's uncle and grandmother, as for the Xue family, what was it? Is it worth it for him to sabotage his own uncle-grand-in-law's plans?

Mother Jia also hesitated when she heard Aunt Xue say that Xia Shouzhong was Concubine Li, and then frowned. Of course. He felt that anyone in this palace could get Jia Yuanchun into the palace, and it was impossible for Li Guifei and Li Guifei's people to get Jia Yuanchun into the palace. Because Jia Yuanchun entered the palace because of Concubine Li, if Jia Yuanchun enters the palace in the future, he will definitely be Concubine Li's mortal enemy, and Concubine Li will definitely not ask for trouble.

Mother Jia thought so, but she didn't know that this was also one of the reasons why Concubine Li was determined to get Jia Yuanchun into the palace. Because in that case, no one would believe that Jia Yuanchun would be the person of his Li Guifei. In the future, the emperor favors Jia Yuanchun, and then Concubine Tali can use this hostile relationship to see which person is the one who calculates himself behind his back; If Jia Yuanchun can't be favored, he can only mix among the lower-class concubines, and he also knows which people will be potential opponents; As for Jia Yuanchun himself. There is also a handle to the food in the hands of Concubine Li. This is the pair that Jia Yuanchun formed with Xia Shouzhong when he was still a female historian in the queen's palace, and Concubine Li believes that if this matter comes out in the future, the unsightly person may not be him. The queen is primarily responsible.

Over there, Xue Baochai quickly got his clothes. Although Jia Baoyu never wears other people's clothes, this dress is brand new. After the following was done, Jia Lian never got on at all. This is what Jia Jiu specially picked out for his brother and prepared to wear when he met the nobleman in case. Just a light green crewneck shirt. There is no embroidery, only pinching and fringing. The style is simple and the style is simpler, which is very suitable for those who have just entered the officialdom and those who are about to enter the officialdom.

Jia Baoyu was reluctant, but Xue Baochai had already sewn it for him, and he couldn't help but give Xue Baochai face. As for wiping the forehead, it is not something that can be done in a while. Jia Baoyu had no choice but to have no days to wipe his forehead, which made him very unaccustomed to it.

This enclosure was originally intended for the ladies, but now that the lectures have entered the lunch break, even the adults can restrain themselves, and the children cannot always maintain their elegant manners. Soon, the little girls were running up and down the hallway with the permission of their loving mothers. Because the door was in the way, they were not afraid that their voices would reach the middle of the house.

The house is such a big place, and all the people who come are people with status, and these little girls naturally started their own boudoir relationships. Of course, Jia Baoyu couldn't resist such a temptation.

However, if Jia Mu made a mistake in the rules, she would not make a second mistake in the same place. Someone who falls twice in the same place is a fool, and Jia Mu is clearly not. Jia Mu was not stupid enough to break the rules twice in the same day. Even if Jia Baoyu was twisting candy in his arms, Jia Mu didn't nod.

But the girls outside are not something that Jia Mu can control, especially the royal girls, like the daughter of King Luling. Although she is a concubine, she is also the daughter of a side concubine who is upbringing, and she is raised by her grandmother, so she is bold and bold, and she is still a smart person who makes big mistakes and does not make small mistakes.

When the little county lord opened the door of Jia Jiu's house, he was very surprised: "Hey, I heard that the voice that made the imperial grandfather and the imperial uncle very uncomfortable came from here. ”

Jia Jiu didn't recognize it, and the little county lord's grandmother hurriedly explained: "This is the little county lord of the Luling Palace. ”

Jia Jiu remembered that although this little county lord has not yet been officially canonized, he still has a little face in front of the Emperor Taishang and the emperor, especially now that the concubine of the King of Luling is raised in the palace, he is the only two female babies in the Luling Palace, and the other is from the concubine, of course, it is not as decent as the daughter of the side concubine who brought him in.

Jia Jiu hurriedly saluted.

But the little lord did not answer, but only tilted his head and said, "You haven't answered me yet." ”

Jia Jiu lay on the ground and said, "Go back to the words of the county lord's mother." Whether it's a brother, or this cousin. I'm young, and I can't speak yet. ”

The little lord said, "I don't believe it. How old are they? ”

Jia Jiu said: "The younger brother is slightly smaller. He is only thirteen months old, and although his cousin is slightly older, he is only one and a half years old. ”

"Really? But I've heard that two-year-olds are already able to speak. ”

The grandmother hurriedly explained: "County Lord, although it is said that the two imaginary children have been able to speak, most of them are monophonic, and some children speak a little later. It will take several years from the beginning of speech to monophony. ”

"Is that really the case?"

Mama replied, "Yes." ”

Jia Jiu also said: "When I go back to the county lord's mother, the people in the courtier's family speak very late, and few of them speak before the age of three. ”

"Really? The same goes for your cousin with a background? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Go back to the words of the county lord's mother." This courtier doesn't know. Although the courtiers were a year older than their cousin, they were actually only a few months apart, and when the cousin spoke, the courtiers were too young to know when he started talking. ”

"Is that so? It's boring. I thought he would be able to speak as soon as he landed. Let's go. The little lord immediately spread his feet and ran away.

knew that Jia Baoyu would definitely be the focus of everyone, but first Concubine Li, and then the little county lord, Jia Jiu didn't dare to go out, so he only hugged Jia Cong with Zhang Qian. One holds the cherished spring. Poor Jia Cong and Xichun, both of whom are only a little older, are most curious about things outside, and see such a lively and open scenery outside. The two of them couldn't help it, one or two of them babbled to go out, but Jia Jiu and Zhang Qian didn't dare to step out of the door. The two of them were even more aggrieved, and they simply cried loudly.

Notice that the people in this room are secretly watching. Seeing these two milk dolls like this, I also dispelled the thoughts in my heart. Seeing that Jia Jiu and the Zhang sisters took care of these two children without hesitation, they naturally understood that these three female dolls were bear children who could not shout "I don't wear other people's clothes".

Immediately, someone came over to tell Jia Jiu and the others, and if you don't want the people in the center of the house to hear the sound in the house, you can put down the curtains in the house. There are three layers of curtains in this room, in addition to the Xiangfei bamboo curtains, there are two other layers of curtains, all of which can be put down to effectively isolate the sound. Jia Jiu immediately thanked the maid who had passed the message.

After Jia Mu next door heard about it, she also lowered the curtains in the same way, and then she breathed a sigh of relief. didn't know that what he did was just covering his ears and stealing the bell.

Of course, these contemptuous shì can't stop Jia Yuanchun and Xue Baochai's heart to climb upward. After hearing that the little county lord of the Luling Mansion also came to look for Jia Jiu, Jia Yuanchun immediately knew that those nobles preferred to go next door to Jia Mu's place. He immediately stood up: "Old lady, I'll go see the second sister." There was only the second sister in the house, who was young and had no one around, and the two nieces and nephews were even more uncomfortable. Baoyu, would you like to spend more time with the old lady here? ”

"Big sister, can't I go with you?"

"Baoyu, the old lady is not very comfortable, and she is worried about the second sister, so I will run on behalf of the old lady. Would you honor the old lady on my behalf? ”

Jia Baoyu said obediently: "Okay." He is very close to his sister, and of course he will not refuse his sister's request, especially he doesn't like Jia Cong, a milk doll who always pulls his hair.

As soon as Xue Baochai wanted to say that he would go with him, he heard Jia Yuanchun say: "Cousin, you have always been careful, so please accompany the old lady more." Baoyu also has a hard time. ”

Xue Baochai couldn't refuse, so he had to sit down again. Seeing that Xue Baochai was unhappy, Jia Baoyu immediately picked up the food box and said, "Sister Bao." Are you hungry? We eat snacks. I heard that there is an excellent vegetarian meal here, but it has not been delivered at this time. Sister Bao, you pad first. ”

Xue Baochai wanted to excuse himself, but in the face of Jia Baoyu's sparkling eyes, and behind Jia Mu's sharp eyes, he couldn't refuse him at all. At this juncture, Xue Baochai didn't dare to offend Jia's mother by rejecting Jia Baoyu, you must know that Jinyu Liangyuan is the only spare tire in front of him, and it is definitely not a smart thing to cut off his back road before the dust settles.

Xue Baochai didn't know that Jia's mother already knew that he used Jia Baoyu as a spare tire. Even if he felt like a cat cub scratching with a tender paw, he was smiling and chatting with Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun without a match. His ears were pricked up, trying to distinguish the voice from the next door. It's a pity that he was doomed to hear nothing.

As for Jia Yuanchun, as he imagined, not long after he arrived at Jia Jiu's side, he saw what he wanted.

The walled house is actually a huge circular building, generally speaking, the corridor is built on the inside, but this walled house is built on the outside. Daomen is rich and wealthy, and hangs a lot of Western crystal glass lamps in the corridor, and also hangs a lot of large mirrors to facilitate these ladies to tidy up their appearance. A well-trained person will certainly be able to glean the information he needs from the reflections of the glass lamps and large mirrors, as well as the extremely shiny wooden floors. And this kind of training, Jia Yuanchun also learned a fur in the palace.

No, he noticed on the Western crystal glass lamp in front of the door, in the past eight or nine rooms of this room, there was a little eunuch who made a gesture, which meant that the emperor went to the back mountain to relax, and there were only two chamberlains and one guard by his side.

Jia Yuanchun immediately got up and said to Jia Jiu: "I'm sorry, second sister, I'll come when I go out for a walk." ”

Jia Jiu was stunned, but Zhang Qian immediately reacted, Jia Yuanchun was in a hurry. If Jia Yuanchun wants to go to the back mountain, he naturally has to pass by Jia Mu's side, and Xue Baochai will definitely not mistake Jia Yuanchun's figure. He also got up shyly and said, "Old lady, the juniors will retire first, and come when you go out for a walk." ”

Jia Mu smiled: "I forgot that you ate a lot of food and drank so much water." You go first. ”

Xue Baochai blushed and walked out of the house backwards. He thought he would soon be satisfied, but he didn't expect that he had only walked a few steps away when he heard a child say, "Wow, this woman is so fat!" ”

Immediately, a girl said, "You are really, even if it is the truth, you can't say it like this!" Be elegant, don't make people think you're uneducated. ”

Xue Baochai's face was red before, but now his face is pale. Even if he was holding the shelf, his feet unconsciously quickened his pace. He forgot about it, there are countless children from noble families playing in the corridor at this time, these people don't even look down on the Jia family, who cares if he is the daughter of the Jia family or the daughter of the Xue family? If you know that he is the daughter of the Xue family, I am afraid that you will not be able to pass the test with these two sentences.

It is the real horror of innocent children to be cruel.

But Xue Baochai had to bear this, and the day he wanted power, he was destined to face this, instead of shrinking into a turtle shell and feeling sorry for himself.

Leaving the enclosure quickly, Xue Baochai turned slightly sideways and wiped his face with a handkerchief. Although it was only a few short steps, it had already made him cry of embarrassment. He can cry, but he can't make a fool of himself in front of nobles, especially since the other party is likely to be the one who changed his fate, Xue Baochai must let himself show his most perfect side.

He didn't know that after following Jia Yuanchun around the Taihu Lake Stone, walking through the lotus pond, and disappearing into the woods, behind a door on the upper floor of the walled house, a woman showed a satisfied smile.

Xue Baochai's steps are not very fast, because it takes time to show the best side of yourself. But he didn't know that for men, especially the king of a country, women who were worth his time were rare in this world. And Jia Yuanchun is obviously not in this case.

Soon, Xue Baochai heard a strange sound. The man's wheezing and the woman's moan.

If it were someone else, maybe they would have turned around and left at this time, when nothing happened. But Xue Baochai is too young, he is only ten years old, no matter how smart he is, he has received a serious lady education. He had no idea what the voice meant.

So, when he poked his head out and saw only two overlapping sounds and shadows that didn't really reflect it, he was held down. (To be continued......)
