145 Wrath of the King

Sitting in Aunt Xue's main house, Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "My sister is still comfortable here." There's a lot going on these days, and I feel like I haven't come to my sister for a while. ”

Aunt Xue wanted to complain in her heart, you sat here with me yesterday and said bad things about Jia Junjun for most of the day. But he replied with a smile on his face: "Look at what my sister said, my sister is a capable person who works hard, where is it like me, sitting at home every day has nothing to do, I can only hope that Pan'er will settle down as soon as possible and give me a big fat grandson." ”

As he spoke, he asked the little girl to go to tea.

Xue Baochai had already won her mother's eyes, and pulled Xue Baoqin and Tanchun to the back room to talk. However, Xue Baochai is a worrying person, worried that her mother will not be able to carry Mrs. Wang, even if she is sitting in the back room, she is next to the door, pricking up her ears, eavesdropping on the movements in the hall.

As for not listening to indecent things or anything, before the interests of the family, I can't take care of it.

When Mrs. Wang heard that Aunt Xue intended to let Xue Pan marry, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.

In his heart, the property of the Xue family is the same as Xue Baochai, destined to belong to his son Jia Baoyu. Now, Aunt Xue wants her son to marry a daughter-in-law, and he is naturally unhappy in his heart.

If it is the case of Jia Yucun in the original book, although Xue Pan lives in Jia's house and is the nephew of Mrs. Wang, Xue Pan is already a dead man in law. Mrs. Wang naturally doesn't have to do superfluous things, as long as she waits for Xue Baochai to enter the door, and then he lets people denounce her, Xue Pan can't escape. He is the biological mother of the imperial concubine, and he is holding the post of Rongguofu in his hand, which person outside dares to disobey him? How could Aunt Xue beat him? had to collect his son's corpse, and then gave all the property of the Xue family to Xue Baochai as a dowry.

Now it's different. Because of Jia Jiu's reminder. Aunt Xue turned her head and begged Wang Ziteng, although Wang Ziteng was tired of the stupidity of his sister and nephew, he also helped smooth things out. The case of Feng Yuan has been set as a model for slaves to take advantage of the opportunity to harm their masters, seek wealth and kill their lives. Although Xue Pan was negligent. But the main fault is not him.

In other words, if Mrs. Wang wants to annex the Xue family through marriage, she must find a way to do it to Xue Pan, not only can she not let Xue Pan stay, but she can't even let Xue Pan leave any children, whether male or female.

Whenever she thought about this incident, Mrs. Wang scolded her daughter more than once for not being thoughtful enough. asked someone to grasp the handle and not say anything, and left a future trouble.

In the original book, Xue Pan was a dead man at the beginning. What if you marry Xia Jingui? Even if the world recognizes this marriage, they will only think that Xia Jingui is married to a tablet. But in fact, Xue Pan married Xia Jingui and never returned to the Xue family's old mansion at all. Instead, they got married in the Jia family. In the eyes of others, the person who married was not Xue Pan at all, but a young master of the Jia family, or simply the child of a big housekeeper of the Jia family, such as Lai Shangrong and others.

If it goes to court, the Xue family's behavior of marrying relatives in the Jia family will only reduce the world's recognition of this marriage.

Again. From a legal point of view, Xue Pan died of illness a few years ago. Xia Jingui just gave birth to a child, even if it is Xue Pan's biological son and Aunt Xue's own grandson, it is impossible to be recognized by the law, and even Xia Jingui himself may be sunk. At that time, even Aunt Xue testified that it was useless.

Because the world will only believe that after Xia Jingui married a rank, he couldn't bear the loneliness and stole people.

Moreover, Xue Pan's household registration had been cancelled a few years ago, and he couldn't go to the yamen to make a marriage certificate, let alone marry him.

In this matter, whether it is positive or negative, Mrs. Wang has countless articles to do. The Xue family can't take any advantage, not to mention that Xia Jingui is not a very good woman, and when the time comes, it will be good that the Xia family will not hold back.

But now, Xue Pan is not a dead man, in law, he is still the head of the Xue family. If he marries a daughter-in-law and gives birth to a son, then the property of the Xue family will naturally belong to his son, and it has little to do with Xue Baochai; Even if there is no son and only a daughter is left, the Xue family can let Xue Pan's daughter give birth and recruit a husband, which has little to do with Xue Baochai. Xue Baochai can only get a dowry at most.

Mrs. Wang took a fancy to Xue Baochai, of course, because Xue Baochai was his niece's daughter, and he could handle it. But Mrs. Wang insisted that Jia Baoyu marry Xue Baochai, and his purpose was still the property of the Xue family.

Mrs. Wang knows her son very well, her son loves to enjoy and can't support things, but Jia Zheng's eldest son and grandson are Jia Zhu Jialan and his son, and Jia Baoyu is only the second son, even if Jia's mother prefers him, he didn't get a lot of property in the end. Moreover, Jia Baoyu's Qingyun Road is broken, and Li Kun is cold, if you want Li Kun Jia Lan to nod and take care of Jia Baoyu, you have to give them benefits.

From her own life experience, Mrs. Wang knew that her dowry could not be all left to Jia Baoyu, and he had to take out a considerable part of her dowry in exchange for Li Kun Jia Lan's care for Jia Baoyu after his death.

Not to mention, Mrs. Wang herself is not sure how much dowry she will be able to leave in a hundred years.

Therefore, Mrs. Wang can only find a rich daughter-in-law for Jia Baoyu.

If the Xue family's property is destined to belong to Xue Pan, Xue Baochai can only get a dowry, so why does Mrs. Wang have to marry her son to this nephew's daughter? is old, seventeen or eighteen years old, no one cares about it, and he doesn't have a good mother's family, and it is impossible to provide any protection for his son Jia Baoyu. If Xue Baochai can only get a small dowry in the end, Mrs. Wang might as well find Jia Baoyu a second Li Kun.

As long as the in-laws do not fall and the daughter-in-law's brothers have a good future, how can the benefits here be comparable to a dowry?

Moreover, even if the Xue family is rich, even if Xue Pan feels sorry for his sister, the dowry is counted. Can Xue Baochai's dowry surpass Jia Min? With Mrs. Wang's vision, how can she look at such a small dowry?

Not to mention the batch of stones that Xue Baochai took away from Jia Jiu.

As soon as she thought of those stones, Mrs. Wang's heart was congested, and her heart became more and more angry, but her face was not obvious at all, and she still said with a smile: "Oh, sister, if you don't say it, I forgot about it." It's been a few years since you entered Beijing, when Pan'er first entered Beijing. is also childish, and now in a blink of an eye, Pan'er is already an adult. This matter really can't be delayed. Regarding Pan'er's marriage, what kind of family does my sister like? ”

When Aunt Xue heard this, she was also stupid.

He just said this to Mrs. Wang, but when Mrs. Wang asked him this, Aunt Xue found out that her daughters were seventeen years old, and her son was over twenty. I thought. After entering Beijing, it was only a two-year delay, waiting for the woman to enter the palace. You can worry about your son's marriage. Now, my daughter is seventeen or eighteen years old, her future is uncertain, and her sons are over twenty. There is no one to settle down.

Aunt Xue was in a hurry.

He now lives in the mansion of the Marquis of Rongguo. said that he was a relative of the Jia family, but in fact, he was just a guest of the guest. Although he was blessed by the Rongguo Marquis Mansion and his face was bright, in fact, most of the original business partners of the Xue family were still merchants, and who dared to come to the door lightly? Even the doors at the back door won't let these merchants in.

Aunt Xue herself is proud of her identity and is unwilling to bow down to these people. When Jia Yuanchun became the imperial concubine, Aunt Xue was the aunt of the imperial concubine. The more I pay attention to it, the farther away I am from those people. But Mrs. Wang's reputation is not good, and people with status outside don't even want to pay attention to Mrs. Wang, Jia Yuanchun's biological mother, so where are they willing to pay attention to the Xue family?

As a result, the Xue family almost cut off contact with their former business partners, but the nobles didn't know a few, and their connections shrank more and more. Aunt Xue didn't think it before, but now she has to talk about the marriage of her children, and then she finds out that something is wrong.

Mrs. Wang is a person who has been mixed up in Jingshi's social circle, and as soon as Aunt Xue hesitates, of course he knows what the problem is.

He snickered in his heart, but his mouth was considerate: "My sister is like this, but it reminds me of the time when Zhu'er got married." At that time, I also wanted to marry a rich and noble daughter-in-law for Zhu'er, so as to help Zhu'er. But then, I changed my mind. Although it is said that this daughter-in-law marries into the door, most of them are flattered in front of our mothers-in-law, but it is the children themselves who live their lives after all. If you marry a child who you don't like, the more unsmooth the life is, it is still the child himself. In the future, if the husband and wife are separated, will the children not be sinned? Not to mention at home. ”

When Aunt Xue heard this, this was not the case, and hurriedly smiled: "It's still my sister who thinks carefully." I didn't pay attention to that. is also said, since he wants Pan'er to marry, how should he marry someone he likes. ”

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Yes, as soon as Pan'er marries and Xue Baochai marries, our sisters can be hands-off shopkeepers, and we don't have to worry about those who don't have it." ”

Aunt Xue nodded again and again.

He thought that Mrs. Wang was assuring him that she would never wronged her daughter.

Xue Baochai in it is more and more wrong, but unfortunately, he is a junior, and he is eavesdropping, so there is no way to give his mother a hint.

In a hurry, it was inevitable that his mind would wander, and naturally Shi Xiangyun noticed it.

Shi Xiangyun said: "Sister Bao, what are you doing, this peach crisp tastes good, it is not quite the same as the old lady's house, and it is also a little different from the small kitchen in the back garden." ”

Xue Baochai hurriedly reacted and said, "What's the matter, the dim sum in the back garden is different from the dim sum in the old lady's house?" ”

Shi Xiangyun replied: "It's really different. The snacks in the old lady's house should be sweeter, and if you eat too much, you will get tired. The snacks in the back garden should be a little more refreshing, even if you eat two more pieces. But it's still not as crisp as Sister Bao's here. ”

Xue Baochai smiled: "It's hard to believe that Sister Yun likes to eat." This is the signature confectionery of Kichijosai, a long-established restaurant in Kyoto. They only sell a few servings of dim sum there every day, and when it's late, it's gone. However, everyone who knows Kyosato loves their sweets. The big eight pieces of their family are also the signboards of hundreds of years. ”

Shi Xiangyun said: "A century-old signboard, no wonder it's so delicious." Sister Bao is really willing. ”

Xue Baochai smiled: "What is this?" If you want me to say, the really delicious thing is the dim sum in the second sister's house. It is said that there are many of them, and they are still the signature dim sum of the imperial kitchen in the palace, which is the recipe that Princess Changle asked for her second sister. ”

Shi Xiangyun said: "So what? The ingredients in the palace are exquisite, and the imperial chef is the world's first-class craft. Without those ingredients, and without that kind of craftsmanship, what if there is a recipe? ”

As he spoke, Shi Xiangyun took another piece of peach cake.

Of course, Xue Baochai will not sue him, in this world, the most particular thing is the palace, and the people who don't know how to eat and don't have to eat are also those nobles in the palace.

If nothing else, it is fresh vegetables, some seasonal vegetables, which are available in summer and not in winter. If it's winter, the lotus root that only has spring and summer on the top, and the people below are not allowed to hang themselves! There are also those concubines, in order to have no peculiar smell on their bodies, not only do they not eat onions, garlic and ginger, but they also rarely eat meat. But what can you eat if you don't eat these?

The most blessed people in this world are the eunuchs who are in charge of the imperial kitchen. They do enjoy the real goodies every day.

It's just that Xue Baochai won't tell Shi Xiangyun about these things.

He just smiled and didn't speak.

It was Shi Xiangyun who couldn't help but say: "To be honest, today really scared me." At the beginning, for the sake of Niangniang's entry into the palace, there was a lot of trouble in this house, and I don't know how many articles came out, and Niangniang even ...... spent a lot of money and a lot of connections, and then sent the mother to the palace. But when I got to the second sister, I couldn't help the second sister not enter the palace. When the eldest sister was at home, everyone knew what the eldest sister was like and what the second sister was like. But now, it's reversed. That's just the way things happen in the world. ”

Xue Baochai smiled and didn't speak.

It was Xue Baoqin, and there was some worry between her eyebrows: "But it may not be a good thing to be like this with the second sister." ”

Shi Xiangyun was stunned, but he didn't talk immediately.

He was pleased with Jia Baoyu, so he naturally stood on Jia Baoyu's side. Jia Baoyu's interests are directly linked to Mrs. Jia Zhengwang, but Mrs. Jia Zhengwang will have today, all thanks to Jia Jiu. It can be said that even if Jia Jiu made a move to protect Shi Xiangyun's reputation, in Shi Xiangyun's heart, he didn't have much gratitude to Jia Jiu.

First, because he and Jia Baoyu have a limit on the amount of time they spend with each other every day, they are not as close as before. Second, it is naturally because Jia Jiu hurt Jia Baoyu's interests.

However, Xue Baochai is very confident in Jia Jiu: "Don't worry." The second sister is not an ordinary girl. Now that the second sister has calmed down and thought about it, she will definitely find a solution. ”

Shi Xiangyun shook his head and said, "This is not necessarily. In my Daqi, at the same time, two high-ranking concubines with the same surname are not allowed in the harem. Since the eldest sister is already a virtuous concubine, where can the second sister be accommodated? Could it be that the second sister wants to be a concubine? There are so many concubines in the palace, and this time Long Live canonized the harem, and then they got the positions of Jieyu and nobles. Before, they weren't nothing? The oldest of them has been in the palace for how many years? If the second sister becomes a concubine, it will be a joke! The second sister is the only first-class county monarch in the imperial court! ”

Before Xue Baochai could say anything, he saw Shi Xiangyun jump up suddenly: "It's broken." Doesn't this mean that if the second sister enters the palace, the position of the eldest sister will not be kept? ”

The little girl's voice was already sharp, and Shi Xiangyun's volume was not small, not only Mrs. Wang in the hall heard it, but even Xue Pan, who had just come back outside, heard it.

Mrs. Wang's face immediately changed.

Good you cloud girl! Dare to curse the mother! (To be continued......)
