Princess Changle sat high, naturally reading everyone's reactions one by one. Shi Xiangyun thought that he was sitting below, his voice was so soft, he didn't even hear the two sisters Jia Qian and Jia Qing, let alone Princess Changle who was sitting opposite or even sitting on it, but he didn't expect that his every move would be watched by others.

Maybe in the eyes of Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang and others, even Jia Baoyu is a child, let alone Shi Xiangyun, who is one year younger than Jia Baoyu. But in the eyes of the world, thirteen-year-old girls can already participate in the draft and prepare to get married, how can a twelve-year-old girl be a child?

In this world, it's too late to show the girls in the family at the age of twelve, let alone the beautiful upbringing.

Shi Xiangyun still talks about Jia Baoyu, is this what everyone should do?

He was not tied to Jia Baoyu's body by the elders.

Princess Changle couldn't help but look at Jia Jiu, and then looked in the direction of Xiangxue Villa from a distance.

At this moment, Princess Changle can probably understand Jia Jiu's intentions, and his friend, is to prevent the girl of the Lin family from being tied to that unsuccessful thing.

Of course, Princess Changle would not think that Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang had the courage to calculate his marriage.

If he Princess Changle is so calculating, then the royal family has long become a puppet in the hands of powerful ministers, where will he, the princess, be carefully flattered by these courtiers?

Seeing that Jia Jiu didn't notice him, Princess Changle squinted slightly, but said, "Although this palace has lived in the deep palace for a long time. But I've also heard that when it comes to eating, drinking, and having fun, except for a few uncles. Your Jia family is the most particular. It's a pity that the nine girls are eccentric, and they haven't seen one or two things when they have been in the palace for so long. I don't know, can Mrs. Tai open her eyes to this palace? ”

Princess Changle's words are not easy to answer.

Of course, Jia Jiu would not be angry with Princess Changle for these few words. Because Jia Jiu and the people around him knew that Mrs. Wang and Xue Baochai had calculated on Princess Changle. Princess Changle just said a few words lukewarmly at this time, but she was actually very polite.

As a princess, he naturally has this power and willfulness.

Jia Jiu didn't think there was anything strange about Princess Changle's attitude. But the others here are not good, especially Jia Mu, even if she is used to seeing big scenes, her hands are still shaking. He spilled half a glass of wine on his clothes.

Jia Mu wanted to stand up and plead guilty immediately. But he couldn't help but look up at Jia Jiu, and when he saw that Jia Jiu didn't hear it, Jia's mother immediately sweated on her forehead.

The uncles in the mouth of Princess Changle are all royal relatives, and they are also the young and old sons of the Emperor Taishang, and they don't need to go further, plus the Emperor Taishang has never stopped between him and today, so these royal brothers are naturally as far as they can flash. Capable of it. indulged in calligraphy and painting; If you don't have the ability, you just raise yourself to be fat and fat. As for the affairs between the Emperor and the present, they have never cared.

These uncles eat, drink and have fun, it is their way to save their lives, but what is the Jia family? What is the capital to eat, drink and have fun?

Princess Changle's words are really hard to answer.

Shi Xiangyun also heard it below, and couldn't help but speak: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you are talking confused, okay, our family has our own money?" ”

Princess Changle smiled slightly and said, "Is that so?" ”

The people in the palace don't like to say too clearly in public, and Princess Changle is the same.

Don't say anything else, just say this last sentence, in fact, a few girls here, even Xichun can hear that Princess Changle's words are wrong. Xue Baoqin even glanced up at Shi Xiangyun.

Not to mention the fact that Shi Xiangyun choked with Princess Changle, it was enough to make people shake their heads at him, not to mention Shi Xiangyun's own family. Shi Xiangyun's surname is Shi, and like their Xue family, they are not members of the Jia family, at most they are just guests of the Jia family. The Jia family itself never spoke, he spoke first, which is wrong.

Second, although the day of entering Beijing was not long, Xue Baoqin also heard about many things. Not to mention anything else, let's just say that before the division of the house, the court owed a deficit of no less than 800,000 taels of silver, and the marquis in this mansion withstood the pressure of the internal and external layers to pay back the deficit. If it weren't for this, now, this majestic Rongguo Marquis Mansion would not know whose money it was.

Third, today's crab banquet said that the second wife invited the entire mansion, but in fact, it was their Xue family who spent money, and the purpose was still on Her Royal Highness the princess.

How many of you don't know this? It's just that everyone is pretending to be confused. It is precisely because she knows that she is the target of other people's calculations that Princess Changle will speak like this. Don't talk about others, just say that it's him Xue Baoqin, if he is calculated, he may not be able to speak well, let alone say that he is a princess.

Shi Xiangyun speaks, many times with his own will, even if he says the wrong thing, he will only use strong words to reason, instead of bowing his head. Just like in the original book, he compared Lin Daiyu to a play, and when he turned back to Jia Baoyu to mediate, he still used strong words. Advocate women and excellent women, since ancient times, have been linked together, let me ask, which girl will not be angry when she is pointed at her nose and scolded by her?

In the original book, if Jia Mu was a little sincere to Lin Daiyu, when Shi Xiangyun said that kind of thing, she should have made a statement, or at least stopped it. But in reality, he didn't say anything.

Jia's mother's love can be seen.

It's just that Shi Xiangyun forgot about it, Princess Changle is not Lin Daiyu in the original book, where both parents died and even the family property was spent by the Jia family.

As soon as Princess Changle spoke, Mother Jia knew that there must be a reason, and when Shi Xiangyun and Princess Changle raised the bar, Mother Jia's back was covered with a layer of cold sweat.

At this time, Jia Mu reached an agreement with Mrs. Wang on Shi Xiangyun's issue for the first time.

This niece and granddaughter, if she treats him as an ordinary guest, if she really wants to hire him for her grandson, it is simply the rhythm of inviting disaster to her own family and her grandson.

Jia Mu had to stand up tremblingly, leaning on her back. Said: "Your Royal Highness the princess, this is the niece and granddaughter of the concubine's mother's family, surnamed Shi." The milk name is called Xiangyun, and his parents died when he was a child, so the concubines have a lot of pity, but they don't want to be spoiled by the concubines. ”

Princess Changle squinted her eyes, and when Mother Jia said a few words, she finally eased her expression and said, "Mrs. Tai is really loving. A child is not a pampered person. ”

Mother Jia is Jia Jiu's grandmother in the end, and now she realizes that she is wrong, Princess Changle still has to give face more or less.

Jia Jiu didn't hear it. just took a list of plays and said, "Changle, didn't you say that our family's drama troupe is good?" Why don't you pick a track? ”

Princess Changle smiled: "Why should you recommend one or two?" ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Say." This kind of babbling drama. I rarely have the patience to listen to it. I prefer clean songs to those that are like the lyrics. Speaking of which, our old lady once said that the sound of the piano is very nice when it comes to water. ”

Princess Changle said, "Oh? Mrs. Tai, is there such a thing? ”

Mother Jia had no choice but to say: "Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, in the old years, when the concubine was still in her mother's house, my father had a banquet." The family made up an opera, one of which is called "Listening to the Qin". My father let the serious pianist take the piano to the stage. At that time, the concubine was younger than the second girl in our family, and she remembered the situation that day very deeply. ”

When Princess Changle heard this, she immediately smiled: "Piano person, please yourself and your heart, if the piano has a spirit, I am afraid that I will cry a lot." ”

As long as you are a person who practices the qin, you know that touching the qin is for self-cultivation, and it is a good story to have a confidant, but the sound of the qin is originally a static word, and it is used to please others with the pleasure of your own piano, and even in the public to sensationalize and openly go on the stage, it is already inferior, and it is also the biggest taboo of practicing the qin.

As a royal princess, how could Changle not know these taboos, and only nouveau riche like the Jia family and the Shi family would do such a thing of burning the qin and cooking cranes and ruining the scenery.

You know, if someone overhears someone when they are practicing, they will also say a word of incivility, don't listen.

Jia Jiu said: "The way of the piano is naturally to pay attention to pleasing oneself and pleasing one's heart. Of course, there are also people who feel happy because of the appreciation of others. I thought that the people who practice the piano in the world are about the same. But that year, when I came back from the palace, I saw an old man who was blind sitting at the door of a shop, and the gonghou was dilapidated, and there were only two or three strings left, and even the old man's fingering was not right. But his piano sound can't help but make people smile. I think that's how the piano works. ”

Princess Changle couldn't stop laughing when she heard this: "Let's go, Jiu girl, how many people in this world do you think can touch the way of the qin?" Most people are just joining in the fun. However, since you said so, is it possible that you have a few good pianists in your family? ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Where is there a good pianist." But for a while, I passed by the corner of the west side of the back garden, and overheard the master of the opera troupe practicing, although most of them were lower riba people, but there were still some outstanding skills in this skill. So just remember. ”

Princess Changle listened to it and said in a good voice: "The newly arranged tunes are not changing back and forth, and there are few outstanding features, either they are clichΓ©s, and they are not as pleasant as the clean tunes." ”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she hurriedly asked the little actors who were transferred from the provincial villa to go down, leaving only the masters in the troupe, picking up their familiar and classic repertoire, and playing them one by one.

Shi Xiangyun's faux pas were exposed like that.

It's just that everyone here knows that after today, Shi Xiangyun will only be a guest of the Jia family.

Mrs. Wang was very happy. As a mother, of course she doesn't like her son to marry a daughter-in-law who doesn't deal with her, and this Shi Xiangyun is really not highly evaluated in Mrs. Wang's heart. No father and no mother is one layer, no dowry is another layer, and the most important thing is that Shi Xiangyun obviously has a mother's family, but he is not close to the two aunts. This is Shi Xiangyun, if he goes out in the future, I am afraid that the relationship with his mother's family will end here.

If someone else is replaced, and the strength of the Shi family is not needed, then it will be forgotten, but Jia Baoyu needs others to take care of him the most, and he needs a powerful Yue family the most.

How could Mrs. Wang nod and let Jia Baoyu marry Shi Xiangyun?

was also relieved, as well as Xue Baochai.

Xue Baochai knows very well that he only has Jia Baoyu as an option now. His good aunt would never want to see him marry someone else. The problem is that he only has one choice for Jia Baoyu, but Jia Baoyu has more than one choice for him. If he is lucky, he can marry Jia Baoyu as his wife, but if he is unlucky, or his aunt is ruthless, he can only be a concubine for Jia Baoyu.

With Xue Baochai's temperament, where can he endure such a future?

His Qingyun Road has never been a concubine for Jia Baoyu.

However, what can he do? Their Xue family was stuck in the neck by his good aunt, and he could only endure it.

Today's Shi Xiangyun's expression made Xue Baochai faintly relieved.

Xue Baochai has always known that regarding the candidate for Jia Baoyu's wife in Jia's mother's heart, his ranking has always been below Shi Xiangyun, the reason is that their Xue family has fallen and they don't have a powerful in-law, but Shi Xiangyun is the eldest lady of the Shi family.

To marry a son-in-law like Jia Baoyu, the first thing to consider is family background. Even if it is a mediocre-looking woman, if she can have a powerful father, it is enough to captivate the country and the city. But no matter how good a girl's appearance is, if her family background is unbearable, she is just mediocre in the eyes of others.

However, the girl's own su zhì also adds or subtracts to this evaluation.

is like Shi Xiangyun, regardless of the occasion and nonsense, even if it is aimed at a noble lady who is also fatherless, motherless, and foundationless, it is a very uncultivated and enough thing for the elders to shake their heads and lower their evaluations of him, not to mention, he is now facing Princess Changle, today's beloved daughter.

Xue Baochai can even imagine that if the Shi family is in Beijing now, if Princess Changle doesn't gently reveal this matter according to Jia Jiu's words today, then the two marquis of the Shi family will have to go back to ask for guilt.

Although today, their Xue family's own purpose has not been achieved, but seeing Shi Xiangyun's results, Xue Baochai's heart is also faintly relieved.

After a year of big and small things, Xue Baochai also understood a lot of things. For example, Jia Yuanchun's cousin is not as beautiful as he imagined; Jia Baoyu, the younger brother of the imperial concubine, is not as valued as he imagined.

Especially the second point, Xue Baochai has deep feelings.

His good aunt is bent on finding a good family for Jia Baoyu, but from all indications, people outside don't look down on Jia Baoyu at all, and Jia Baoyu's future wife candidate is afraid that it will fall among these girls who are now living in the Jia family or living in the Jia family.

Xue Baochai will not worry about the Li family sisters, because Mrs. Wang already has a daughter-in-law named Li Kun, and she will not let Jia Baoyu marry any of the Li Wen and Li Qi sisters.

Shi Xiangyun is out today.

Because of Mrs. Xing, the possibility that Xing Xiuyan will marry Jia Baoyu is extremely low and almost negligible.

Then, there is Xue Baoqin, who already has a marriage contract, and Miss Lin, who has never come forward so far.

Thinking of Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai was shocked, and couldn't help but look up at Mother Jia, but saw that Mother Jia only cared about flattering Princess Changle, but she was more attentive than Jia Jiu.

Xue Baochai's heart was clouded with a layer of darkness. (To be continued......)
