105 Be open and honest

Jia Jiu and Xue Baochai were relatively speechless.

Xue Baochai is very considerate of others, but to be considerate of this kind of thing, you need one who has spare strength and can help others, otherwise it is a cool talk, and you also need another person who is really in a bad situation and needs the help of others, otherwise the other party is nosy.

In the original book, Xue Baochai is no longer as majestic in the garden, but because he has a strong backstage, Mrs. Wang is Jia Yuanchun's mother and supports his nephew's daughter.

But now it's different.

Xue Baochai and Jia Jiu, Jia Jiu's strength is stronger and more confident. Mrs. Wang is borrowing the light of his daughter Jia Yuanchun, but Jia Jiu himself is the county monarch canonized by the imperial court, and there is still Princess Changle standing behind her, not to mention that the Wang family has fallen, and Wang Ziteng has also become a commoner, but Jia Jiu, not only stands behind him, but also faintly says that Jia Jiu's biological mother is likely to be a member of the royal family of Broken Island.

……………………

Every time he thought of this, Xue Baochai hesitated in his heart.

No matter how high a person thinks of himself, when facing the royal family, he will always be a little weaker, whether the royal family is the royal family or the royal family in their own country.

The same goes for Xue Baochai.

In Xue Baochai's opinion, Jia Jiu has the blood of the Broken Island Royal Clan on his body, which can explain a lot of problems. If the broken island was the same as those fanbangs, they were all so weak and relied on the help of Daqi, Xue Baochai would not care about such a weak broken island. However, Broken Island is such a powerful country!

Even though Xue Baochai was a boudoir woman, as soon as the big vat of gems on the broken island came out, the blood of the natural businessman immediately boiled. Xue Baochai spent a lot of effort to inquire about the broken island. The girls in the Mansion of the Marquis of Rongguo, except for Jia Jiu, know the most about the broken island.

It's because I know a lot about the broken island. Xue Baochai was also full of entanglements with Jia Jiu.

The Broken Island is so powerful that even the Daomen have to retreat. As for the Daomen, it was a behemoth that even the Great Qi royal family did not dare to offend. Thinking about all kinds of rumors about Jia Jiu's combat power, even Xue Baochai himself felt that no matter who was sitting on that chair, he couldn't scold or touch this person, so he was afraid that he could only grit his teeth and mix blood. Swallow all the depression.

Because he has carefully thought about the forces behind Jia Jiu, Xue Baochai's attitude towards Jia Jiu is also full of twists and turns.

When he was in the south, Xue Baochai looked down on Jia Jiu. The Xue family has been friends with the Jia family for generations. The two families are very familiar, and Xue Baochai's father has heard about the Jia family more than once: the lord of the Jia family's big house who inherited the title is very incompetent, so it is his aunt and aunt who live in the main hall, and it is his cousin who is respected as the eldest lady. And this girl from the big house is only the second girl.

Wait until you get to Kyori. Xue Baochai knew how different reality was from the world he knew. It's not that the old man is cowardly and incompetent, but that he is filial to his mother and loves his younger brother, so he chose to back down. It's not that his own cousin is a head taller than the second girl, in this world of fighting fathers, looking at the fathers of the two, people will dump their own cousins a few streets, not to mention the daughter of a businessman.

Xue Baochai originally thought that this second girl was just a good father. But who would have thought that people would turn around and get themselves a knighthood. also mixed a court dress, and even pulled a backer for his family!

If it was someone else, seeing that Jia Jiu had something to do with the broken island, he would have kept his distance from Jia Jiu, but Xue Baochai didn't see it that way. He had miscalculated on Jia Jiu many times, and he didn't think that this time, he could be accurate once.

In the face of a guy like Jia Jiu who often refreshes people's cognition, it is okay to be more cautious.

"Sister Bao......"

"Second Sister ......"

Xue Baochai hesitated for a while before he spoke, but he didn't want Jia Jiu to speak at the same time, both of them were stunned, and laughed at the same time.

I am more and more similar to Xue Baochai, and I really didn't say anything wrong about this.

Xue Baochai said: "Second sister, please speak." ”

"It's better for Sister Bao to say it first."

"Second sister, please first."

"Sister Bao, please first."

Xue Baochai looked at Jia Jiu, he didn't know why Jia Jiu was so polite to him today. But he also knew that if the two of them continued to be so polite, he was afraid that the two of them would not have to say anything useful today.

Xue Baochai thought about it, and still said: "Second sister, the jar of jewelry that the person from the broken island gave ......"

Jia Jiu smiled: "What do I want to say when I am still Sister Bao, it turned out to be that." As he spoke, he pointed outside: "It's under the porch, on the edge of the rockery." From here, you can see it at a glance. ”

Xue Baochai had already noticed the jade vat on the edge of the rockery, and he thought that he had seen it wrong, but he didn't expect that Jia Jiu would be so willful.

"Second sister, aren't you afraid that someone will take the sheep by the hand?"

Jia Jiu replied: "Look at what Sister Bao said, there are a few people who can enter and leave my yard. Who dares to move? As he spoke, he looked at Xue Baochai again, and saw that Xue Baochai's face was still a little hesitant, so he said, "Sister Bao, are you worried about my aunt?" ”

Xue Baochai was stunned for a moment, then panned all over, and said, "Second sister, do you know everything?" After that, he paused again, and said: "The second wife has always said that there is no treasure of the town house in the provincial villa......

Hearing the strings and knowing the elegant meaning, Jia Jiu immediately understood what Xue Baochai was going to say next: "So, the idea of hitting these stones?" Are you going to pull out the king branch, and then resist the vat of jewels, and by the way, find a random place to insert the king branch into the ground? If I ask him, I am afraid that he will say something, all the trees under the sky are planted on the earth, and how can anyone plant them on the pearl and jade? Yes and no? ”

When Xue Baochai said this, he was suspected of provoking, and when he saw Jia Jiu so angry, he immediately stopped talking.

Jia Jiu said coldly: "That second lady wants to take away that vat of jade as the mother of Concubine Xiande?" Okay! I'm okay with that! I just don't know if the people of the broken island have any opinions, or if they can accept that their king branch has been so neglected. Of course. If the branch of the king is planted to death, or if it is damaged, I don't know how the virtuous concubine will bear the consequences. ”

For Mrs. Wang. Jia Jiu's patience has reached the edge.

As for Xue Baochai's careful thinking, Jia Jiu also saw it in his eyes. However, Xue Baochai's small actions were still within Jia Jiu's tolerance, but Mrs. Wang ......

It was also at this time that a notice came from outside: "Girl, the wife of the outsider, Wang, is here." ”

Although Jia Jiu still calls Mrs. Wang her aunt. But in Jia Jiu's courtyard, no one would call Mrs. Wang the second wife. Everyone directly uses Jia Zheng's official position to call Mrs. Wang, and. There is no edict on Mrs. Wang, just a commoner, so the official title is Jia Wang, the wife of the Ministry of Labor. When at home. The word Jia will be omitted. Call him Wang directly. But if he goes outside, he is Jia Wang, not Jia Wang, the wife of the Ministry of Labor.

Hearing that Mrs. Wang was coming, Xue Baochai's head lowered slightly, so that Jia Jiu couldn't help but look at him more.

After pondering for a while, Jia Jiu said, "Auntie rarely comes to me." It's also inconvenient for me to let my aunt in. Sister Bao, why don't we go out together to greet you? ”

Xue Baochai said: "Second sister, my aunt will come." Obviously, I have something to say to my second sister, and I am inconvenienced by being there. As. I'll eat tea here, and when the second sister returns, our sisters will talk about it in detail, okay? ”

Xue Baochai didn't want to see Mrs. Wang, let alone let Mrs. Wang know that she had come to report to Jia Jiu. He knew very well that between Mrs. Wang and Jia Jiu, he could only choose Jia Jiu.

Jia Jiu was not reluctant, but he still left Xiaohong and Qingwen here to accompany Xue Baochai, but he took Qiu Dianzan and other four life-level maids and four nurturing grandmothers to the front.

This outer study, which originally belonged to Jia Yu, was given to her daughter by Jia Yu, and many important books, as well as Jia Yu's beloved antique calligraphy and paintings, were taken away by Jia Yu, but the books and furniture left here were still very considerable, which made Mrs. Wang, who suffered from pink eye, more and more hot.

The first thing Mrs. Wang said when she saw Jia Jiu was not to let Jia Jiu, who saluted him, get up, but pointed to the rows of bookshelves full of books, and said, "Look at these books, even if it is our master's study, it is nothing more than that." ”

Jia Jiu smiled, and without waiting for Mrs. Wang to speak, she stood up, and said while beckoning the little girl to have tea: "Look at what my aunt said." It's no secret that my father has always been fond of playing with antiques and collecting unique calligraphy and paintings. Of course, my father's vision is not as good as that of the Lin family's aunt, but the most important thing about books is the content in them. Auntie, am I right? ”

Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Jiu and said, "So your father gave you all the books he collected?" ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "Look at what my aunt said." How is this possible? The only ancient books that really mattered, my father took them back. As for these here, they are all new books, or more common editions. Otherwise, I copied it myself. I only know that my father has good books there, and if I cherish them, my father is willing to borrow them from me to copy them. So unconsciously, it has accumulated so much. ”

Mrs. Wang was stunned for a long time, and said: "You are the only daughter of the eldest master, the eldest lord, the lord will naturally treat you well." However, my daughter's family doesn't need to read so many books, and it's not good to change her temperament. ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "Now, my aunt will say such things to me." A woman's lack of talent is virtue. I haven't heard of that for a long time. Auntie, don't worry, the books I read are either the ones my father helped me to watch, or the books listed by Daokui himself. There are two elders to check it, and it's not easy for me to change my temperament. ”

Mrs. Wang froze.

He thought of his son Jia Baoyu.

Hope that the son will become a dragon and the woman will become a phoenix.

Every parent wants their children to be promising, and every parent wants their children to get ahead and raise their eyebrows, and Mrs. Wang is certainly no exception. Otherwise, why did he desperately calculate, regardless of the qualifications of Enyin belonging to Jia Lian, and stuffed his son Jia Zhu into the Guozijian? Isn't it to create a good environment for his son, so that his son can take a little less detours?

Probably Mrs. Wang herself didn't expect that her own calculations would force her son to death!

But this does not mean that Mrs. Wang will not plan for Jia Baoyu. On the contrary, it was because she knew that her son could not go through the imperial examination and could not be an official, that Mrs. Wang wanted to save a little more money for this son. Lin Daiyu was not chosen in the original book. That is Lin Daiyu's family property has been spent, and Lin Daiyu has become a poor egg. Now Mrs. Wang does not choose Lin Daiyu, it is because the Lin family has a son. The property of the Lin family belongs to Lin Daiyu's younger brothers, and Lin Daiyu can only get a dowry for herself. And Xue Baochai's Xue family has a lot of property, not to mention Aunt Xue, Xue Pan, or Xue Pan, they are not smart enough. Mrs. Wang was sure of this, and got all the property of the Xue family to his son Jia Baoyu.

As for Shi Xiangyun, it was not in Mrs. Wang's consideration from beginning to end.

Mrs. Wang could accept that her son was raised in Jia's mother's house. It is also acceptable that his son will not take the imperial examination and become an official in the future, but he cannot accept that his son is still ignorant when he is old.

Jia Baoyu is in Jia's mother's house and doesn't touch books all day long. I only know how to make those girls low, mess around with those girls, and eat the rouge on the mouths of those girls, one by one, one by one, just like thorns, stabbed in Mrs. Wang's heart.

In contrast. With the help of Jia Jiu. Jia Huan, who has learned a lot of homework, is particularly dazzling.

If you don't know that Jia Huan is a servant, if you don't know that Jia Huan is destined to go through the imperial examination, I'm afraid that Mrs. Wang will eat Jia Huan's heart raw.

Why can't my son study and become an official, but you, a girl, can go to school instead?!

Mrs. Rao knew what she couldn't do to Jia Huan at the moment, so he still asked Jia Huan to copy Buddhist scriptures for him to dispel his anger.

also because of Jia Huan, Mrs. Wang also made a note of Jia Jiu in her heart. Now, listen to Jia Jiu say this. Mrs. Wang also lowered her face and said, "Second girl, you are blessed." It's a pity that my Baoyu, he is only half a year younger than you, but he is still an ignorant doll! I don't know when he'll be able to reassure me. ”

Jia Jiu didn't notice Mrs. Wang's dissatisfaction, and said with a smile: "Look at what my aunt said." Girls are sensible early. As for Baoyu, it may not be a blessing that he can live happily and carefree. Furthermore, the ancient sages, which one read early? Lao Tzu was nineteen years old before touching a book. When Sage Kong entered school, he was almost twenty years old. Not to mention Dong Zhongshu, he studied late. Speaking of which, didn't Da Su Suxun also start studying when he was twenty-seven years old? If you want me to say, Baoyu is not in a hurry. When he has a family and a wife and children, he will naturally be sensible. It will not be easy to be the master of the house in the future, and now he can relax for a few days. ”

When Mrs. Wang saw Jia Jiu comparing Jia Baoyu to an ancient sage, she was naturally happy in her heart, and her face softened a little, and said, "Where is Baoyu's great creation!" ”

As he spoke, his tone softened.

After the two of them took their seats, Mrs. Wang said, "Second girl, I won't talk about unnecessary nonsense." I'm here today to ask you what you think of Baoyu's future. ”

Jia Jiu was stunned for a moment and said, "Auntie, you can ask the wrong person about this." Baoyu is raised in the old lady's house, and the second uncle takes care of you, and there is the sister of Niangniang, where does he need me to talk more in his future? ”

Mrs. Wang sighed and said, "Second girl, I'm already old. ”

Even if Mrs. Wang herself does not admit defeat, that is, no matter how much Mrs. Wang cares about her son, every time she looks in the mirror and sees her full head of white hair, Mrs. Wang always finds it difficult to hide the desolation in her heart.

He is already old, but his son is young and ignorant, how can he be at ease? But his mother-in-law has always been willful, and she doesn't allow juniors to disobey his words. Mrs. Wang has countless dissatisfactions, and she can only suppress them in her heart.

Mrs. Wang knew very well that he couldn't find anyone to say a lot of things. Especially in the past two years, after he came out of the Buddhist hall, he found that his sister Aunt Xue seemed to have lost his previous respect for him, and his words were a lot more casual, and he seemed to look down on him a little. As for Xue Baochai, he has always had a plan in his heart, and even if he told him, he was a master who shook his head and didn't know.

After all, only this second girl can discuss something with him.

As for whether Jia Jiu was willing to say these words to him, Mrs. Wang had never considered it. Because he had already heard that when he entered the Buddhist hall, Jia Jiu had said good things for him. In Mrs. Wang's opinion, Jia Yu didn't have an accident, Jia Lian was fine, although Mrs. Xing was lying, but Jia Jiu didn't crawl out of Mrs. Xing's stomach. You must know that there is no Aunt Zhao behind Jia Jiu who comes out disgusting from time to time.

Mrs. Wang was also very depressed, so she came to talk to Jia Jiu. Seeing that Jia Jiu didn't answer, Mrs. Wang realized that she seemed to be bored with herself.

If you change someone else, you are afraid that you will sit down and leave, but if you change Mrs. Wang, he is not the master who gives up so easily. Seeing that Jia Jiu didn't speak, Mrs. Wang also softened her figure and said, "Second girl, do you know, you are really similar to your wife, and your wife is also like this, you are polite to outsiders, and only when you are facing your own people, you will not listen to your temper." Maybe your wife is a little worse in the means of the inner house, and she can't play with the minions in the house, but in this big aspect, he has never missed it. ”

Jia Jiu raised his head and said, "Our wife? ”

"Yes." Madame Wang replied, "Why, do you think that it is all my fault that your wife has been lying in the house so far?" ”

"Freezing three feet is not a day's cold."

Mrs. Wang said, "Do you think so? That's it. I confess that your first wife was my hand, as well as your late eldest brother. However, do you think that if no one hints that with my means, I can really kill your mother and the eldest grandson of the serious Changfang in this house? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Auntie, what do you mean by this?" ”

Madame Wang pulled a strand of hair from her sideburns behind her ears and said, "That's just how I told you." It's not that I'm ruthless and want the lives of your first wife and your eldest brother, but that someone wants the lives of your first wife and your eldest brother, but they are just borrowing my hands to do this kind of thing. I did dream of replacing it, but I also knew that it was hard to break the rules. At that time, I didn't have the courage to do such a thing, but after something like that happened, I let go of my courage. Are you credible? ”

Jia Jiu glanced at Mrs. Wang fixedly and said, "I believe it." But in that case, you shouldn't tell me, auntie. ”

Mrs. Wang nodded and said, "It's a pity that now, I can only see a few of your family." As he spoke, he sighed again: "Second girl, I came to you, but I just made you soft-hearted." Baoyu is raised in front of the old lady, even if you have returned to your father's side, as long as the old lady is still the lady in this house, as long as you have to give the old lady a morning and dusk every day, your reputation will also be questioned. Even if you have a bunch of grandmothers around you. Others don't say it in front of them, they always say it behind their backs. ”

Jia Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Mrs. Wang and said, "What does Auntie mean by this?" ”

Mrs. Wang said: "It doesn't mean anything, but it's just to say this to you." Baoyu, the child, said that he was smart, he was vague about many rules, and he didn't know how much harm his crazy words would bring to the sisters in the family; said that he was confused, but he spoke very methodically, and sometimes, when he spoke, he was even more set. As you just said, he's just a boy, so it's okay to play for a few more years. But, second girl, you're not too young anymore. If your reputation is ruined by him, do you think about your future? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Auntie, are you here to warn me?" ”

Mrs. Wang shook her head and said, "I came to you, first, because you may be the only person who can help me, and secondly, naturally because things are related to your reputation and your future, and you won't care." Well, would you like to talk to me now? ”

Mrs. Wang deserves to be Mrs. Wang, and finally opened a door for herself.

Jia Jiu stared at Mrs. Wang and said, "I understand, what does my aunt want to tell me?" ”

Madame Wang replied, "About Baoyu's future." ”

Jia Jiu said: "As long as Baoyu's stone has been preserved, Baoyu's future is doomed." ”

Mrs. Wang said: "But you also said that I made that stone to fool people in order to seize power." It's nothing at all. What I want to discuss with you is Baoyu's marriage. ”

Mrs. Wang also knew how terrible Jia Baoyu's stone was. For the sake of her son, Mrs. Wang doesn't mind putting the black cauldron on her head, nor does she mind the eyes of others.

He is a mother and he is willing to do anything for the sake of his children. (To be continued......)
