Generally, the women basically come forward to solve the affairs of the family, and only if the women cannot solve it, they will inform the men in the family. This is such a custom, which leads to the affairs of the family, and is often the last to be known to the male owner of the family. In the same way, if the eldest head of the family speaks for something, it means that the matter has been decided, and there is basically no way to turn back.

The same was true of the Jia family in the past.

A few days ago, Jia Yu said that, Jia Jiu also thought that he just had to do what his father told him, but he forgot about it, although he said that it was separated by a garden, but Xue Baochai still lived in his house, and there were some things that he could avoid if he wanted to.

When Jia Jiu came back from Duofuxuan, he was faced with Xue Baochai, who had been waiting for a long time.

"What, Sister Bao came over in person? Waited a long time? ”

Qingwen, who was in charge of guarding the house, immediately said, "Yes, girl." The maid originally said that when the girl came back, the maid would naturally return, and asked Miss Bao to go back first. Who would have thought that Miss Bao actually said that it didn't matter, and then sat in the hall for most of the hour. The tea has been served twice, and I haven't seen Miss Bao go back. ”

Jia Cong in Jia Jiu's arms shook his little head uncomfortably, and Jia Jiu had to look down to see if he was awake. Seeing that he didn't wake up, Jia Jiu gently tossed and slightly changed his posture to make Jia Cong sleep more comfortably, and then said, "That's it." You go and talk to Mother Wang. Just say I'll be late. ”

Qingwen hurriedly retired and went to the main room, and Jia Jiu took her younger brother to the house. Inside his hall, Xue Baochai was facing away from the door, admiring the "Spring Tour" on the wall, and when he heard a sound outside, he immediately turned around.

Jia Jiu smiled: "Please wait a moment Sister Bao." We'll talk again when I'm settled down. ”

Xue Baochai hurriedly said: "It's not mine, it's not at the right time." Sister please. ”

Jia Jiu smiled, took people to the innermost bedroom, and waited for the girls to put down the railing of the rocking car, he gently put the sleeping Jia Cong in, installed the railing, put down the mosquito net, let Jinxiu guard on the side, and changed his clothes again, and then came out.

Xue Baochai outside still didn't change his patience, if he changed Shi Xiangyun, he was afraid that he would have rushed into Jia Jiu's bedroom long ago.

Jia Jiu went to the outside room, and Xue Baochai met each other, sat down with the guests, and the little girls changed the tea and fruit, and then heard Xue Baochai say: "In the past, I heard of Zhan Ziqian's "Spring Tour", my father used to seek it in every possible way but couldn't, but now I see it here in my sister, and it really deserves its name." ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "My sister is too famous. Where is it so easy to get your authentic handiwork! ”

Xue Baochai said with a smile: "Although my sister's painting is not genuine, it is almost the same." This "Spring Tour" depicts objects with lines, bright colors, and the characters are directly dyed with pink dots. His double-hook leaf clamping method and dotted flower method had a great influence on later paintings. It is said that this remark was obtained by the nobles of Guanlong, and the Tang family could not ask for it several times. Even the painting saint Wu Daozi had to accept the conditions of the Dugu family in order to observe this painting. Although my sister's painting is not genuine, it is a copy of the famous family that came out of the Dugu family, and it is well preserved, and it is already a rare thing. ”

Jia Jiu said with a smile: "It is said that my sister is knowledgeable, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." ”

Xue Baochai blushed and said, "It's me Meng Lang, but I just know that the fur is showing off here with my sister." Since the eldest master gave this painting to his sister to decorate the house, he obviously told his sister. Sister, don't be annoyed that I'm happy to see the hunt. ”

Jia Jiu hurriedly said: "Where, where, my sister made fun of me." ”

The two were polite, and then they picked up the tea bowl and looked at each other by eating tea.

I saw that today's Xue Baochai was wearing a bright yellow gauze dress, still wearing his Yingluo and his golden lock. The best palace veil can see the moles on the skin even if you wear seven or eight layers. Therefore, the light gauze wrap here is synonymous with a prodigal woman. The daughter of the good family wants to wear a palace veil, and she will also wear opaque satin clothes and single clothes inside, but in this way, it will be difficult for the fat man to endure the scorching heat. Xue Baochai is one of them.

That's right, Xue Baochai's body is on the fat side, and he is most afraid of heat. In order to lose weight, he has suffered a lot, and in the summer, he can not go out without going out. This time, if something big hadn't happened, Xue Baochai wouldn't have taken this trip against the sun. It is precisely because of this that he envies Jia Jiu's figure even more.

Obviously three pounds heavier than me, why are you still thinner than me? How much does God love this second sister?

Xue Baochai was attracted by miscellaneous matters, but Jia Jiu was full of worries. Although his father had already warned Jia Jiu, he couldn't stop Jia Jiu's curiosity. Even in his original world, the world's praise and criticism of Xue Baochai is also very extreme, some people say that he is dignified and steady, gentle and generous, open-minded and generous; Some people also believe that Baochai is ruthless, hypocritical and treacherous, and is a "female Cao Cao". Of course, some people say that Xue Baochai's horror does not lie in his two extremes, but in his scheming, in his constant trade-offs, and finding the best balance, so that he can be comfortable in any situation.

In other words, Xue Baochai is a typical businessman who will change his strategy at any time according to the chips in his hand and the changes in the surrounding environment, so as to seek the best interests for himself.

Such a person, even if he is an old fox and an evergreen tree in the court, it is impossible for him to be perfect, but he can do it with ease. Such a woman is undoubtedly terrifying. It's just that he is a girl, he is young, he lacks enough vision and judgment in major matters, and he does not have enough experience to support, and his future is really difficult to say.

For a moment, the room was cold.

Xue Baochai put down the tea bowl and said with a forced smile: "Second sister, why do you look at me like this, but is there anything wrong with me?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "If I say it, sister, don't be angry." ”

Xue Baochai said: "Sister, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

"My sister's skin is fair, and this bright yellow dress is even better for my sister's complexion. It's just that this capital is not as good as the south, and there are some unwritten rules to be followed. For example, the founding emperor of the previous dynasty once issued a ban, Ming Huang is exclusive to Long Live and the Queen's mother, and Xinghuang is exclusive to the imperial concubine. Although there are no laws and regulations in this dynasty, people like us will try to avoid them. ”

Xue Baochai was taken aback: "It turns out that there are such rules, it turns out that I made a mistake." Sister Xie reminded. ”

"Where, Sister Bao is serious. Speaking of which, my sister still has to apologize to Sister Bao. ”

Xue Baochai said with a strong smile: "Where did my sister say it, why did she apologize to me." ”

Jia Jiu put down the tea bowl and said: "Although it is said that our family's family affairs are still taken care of by the sister-in-law of the Zhang family, but the servants in the family are not angry, and it has affected my sister's reputation, so I still have to compensate my sister." ”

Saying that, Jia Jiu was about to stand up, but Xue Baochai hurriedly held him down and said, "Look at what my sister said, how can this matter be blamed on my sister?" I used to know that a family like my sister's family, which is known for its benevolence, has some minions below in the south, which has been an old rule for several lifetimes, and it can't be changed. Just like the matter of my golden lock, if my sister wants to admit this fault, it is also my failure to discipline my own minions first. ”

Seeing this, Jia Jiu hurriedly grabbed Xue Baochai's hand and said in a low voice: "But how is this matter involved with my sister's lifelong event?" This is no small matter. Good sister, you make a deal with your sister, and let your sister have a charter in her heart. ”

Xue Baochai didn't want to say it yet. But think about it again, this matter turned out to be Jia's mother and his mother talking to each other, and there is Jia Yuanchun in the middle, although it is said that the marriage book has not yet been made, but this matter is also nine times out of ten, this will be his cousin-in-law in the future, just for the sake of his favor, and now befriending him will also be beneficial to Jia Baoyu's future.

Thinking like this, Xue Baochai finally nodded and said in a low voice: "The old lady asked the eldest sister to come over and tell her mother in person." It's just that now the two of us are still young, and Baoyu has been in many disasters since she was a child, and her mother is not at ease, so she agreed not to make a marriage letter now. Now I only sue my sister one, and I ask my sister not to go outside. ”

Jia Jiu was really stunned for a moment, and said, "It's already decided?" That's really to congratulate my sister. ”

Xue Baochai blushed and said, "I don't have a marriage certificate yet." Sister, don't be loud. ”

said this, but Xue Baochai's face still revealed a trace of pride. He finally got rid of his identity as a merchant girl and flew up to the branches to become a phoenix.

Jia Jiu was stunned for a while in his position, and then said, "But, didn't you say that my sister still wants to participate in the draft?" ”

Xue Baochai shook his head and said, "I've already inquired, and with an identity like mine, even if I go in, I won't be able to get into a good place." What's more, my mother is reluctant to let me suffer. ”

Jia Jiu said: "I see. My aunt really loves my sister. ”

Xue Baochai also nodded, with a hint of relief on his face.
