Sure enough, on the first day of the eighth month, on the day when everyone asked Jia's mother to say goodbye, Jia's mother pointed to Xing Xiuyan and said: "Buddha relies on gold clothes and people rely on clothes." The words of the older generation are really not wrong. As soon as Xing Yatou dressed up like this, she looked more and more like the beauty in the painting. It's a pity, it's not our family. ”

Jia Jiu said with a smile: "It's still the old lady who has vision." Just rushed to his indifferent appearance, which was just a little worse than Sister Lin. It's a pity that I'm a layman, so I can't be so idle. ”

Jia Mu pointed to Jia Jiu's nose and said, "You second girl, are you here again?" There is already a four girls in the family who want to be a sister-in-law, and now you have to learn from the idle clouds and wild cranes, are you going to be angry with me? ”

Tanchun had already laughed below: "Old lady, the second sister said that he can't do this idle cloud and wild crane." ”

Jia Mu said: "It's good if you can't do it." Second girl, the way of cultivation is the way of cultivation, but you are not allowed to become a monk or a female Taoist. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Old lady, isn't it appropriate to talk about this matter today?" This matter of becoming a monk is not so easy to decide. ”

Jia Mu snorted.

Jia Jiu didn't want to say more, and Jia Mu didn't want to say much. Jia's mother knew that if Daomen really needed his granddaughter to become a monk, or if the court ordered his granddaughter to become a monk, he would be reluctant to let go.

The future of this granddaughter has never been in the hands of the Jia family, let alone in the hands of him, the wife of the Jia family. It is the Daomen who has the right to speak about the future of this granddaughter. It's the two in the palace, not their mother and son.

Jia Baoyu was not interested in Jia Jiu's future, and he never thought about it. The real situation of this cousin. At this moment, he was already fascinated by Xing Xiuyan.

Just like Jia Jiu's evaluation of him, although he is very careful about these young and beautiful girls, whether they are girls or young ladies, in fact, he is just a greedy and lustful mortal. He has a good temper and a good upbringing. It's all for those young and beautiful girls, girls who are not young or beautiful, but it's rare for him to have blue eyes.

Just like Xing Xiuyan before. Xing Xiuyan, who just came to Jia's house. The family is not good, there is no money to dress up, and even a girl is bought on the road to make up the number. Such Xing Xiuyan stood in front of Jia's mother. Dusty. It's not brilliant at all, Jia Baoyu's attention went to the glamorous Xue Baoqin, and even the Li Wen and Li Qi sisters only got a little bit, but Xing Xiuyan, Jia Baoyu didn't have any impression at all.

Now, Xing Xiuyan is dressed up, Jia Baoyu suddenly found that Xing Xiuyan is also a beauty, and immediately divided a large part of his attention to Xing Xiuyan.

Jia Baoyu thinks. Last time, he was rude and didn't take care of Xing Xiuyan. Now it's time for him to say yes.

He immediately stood in front of Xing Xiuyan, made a gesture, and said, "Sister Xing, it was Baoyu who was rude last time. ”

Panicked, Xing Xiuyan hurriedly got up and returned the salute.

Jia Jiu said on the side: "I remember that Sister Xing and Baoyu have the same birthday, and Sister Qin is also on this day. I don't know if that's the case. ”

Xue Baochai said in surprise: "Could it be that Sister Xing's birthday is also on April 26?" That's a coincidence. ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "It's not a coincidence. ”

Jia Baoyu was surprised and delighted when she heard this, and was immediately stunned on the spot. He was a little stupid, he had read a few scripts, listened to a few plays, and was teased by those girls, so he had a stupid thought in his heart, that is, "the same birthday is husband and wife". The current Jia Baoyu is different from the original book, in the original book, Lin Daiyu came to Jia's house when she was six years old, and was raised by Jia's mother and Jia Baoyu together. But now, Lin Daiyu has been at Jia's house for more than half a year, but Jia Baoyu has never seen Lin Daiyu at all, let alone what Lin Daiyu looks like. In such a situation, how can two complete strangers have any feelings?

On the contrary, Xue Baoqin, who has been in front of Jia's mother for the past two days, is an excellent person, Jia Baoyu revolves around him every day, and has imprinted him in his heart.

However, Xue Baoqin may be a man, maybe not as sophisticated as Xue Baochai, and maybe a little bit of Shi Xiangyun's chivalry, but he is a secular person after all, and his family background determines that he cannot have the high level of Lin Daiyu and Xing Xiuyan, and his beauty also belongs to the kind of flamboyant beauty, not the restrained beauty.

This kind of beauty is indeed attractive to a young man like Jia Baoyu. Maybe Xue Baoqin is indeed a pretty perfect girl, but his beauty lacks a spiritual resonance for Jia Baoyu, and it can't satisfy Jia Baoyu's deep desire.

At this point, not only Xue Baoqin, but also Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun are unable to satisfy this desire in Jia Baoyu's heart.

With a young son like Jia Baoyu, he grew up in the Qiluo bush, ate jade grains and golden ulva, wore splendid clothes, and was surrounded by slaves and maids, delicate maids and luxury children, but his heart was empty. Even if he was held in the palm of Jia's mother's hand, even if he had never suffered a trace of grievance, Jia Baoyu's heart was lonely.

With Shi Xiangyun, Jia Baoyu can have a lot of fun, but when Shi Xiangyun is not in front of him, Jia Baoyu will still feel bored and bored.

Like those girls, Jia Baoyu spoils them and coaxes them, except for Jia Baoyu's nature, there is no such factor in it: the people around him are too obedient to him, so he lacks or a sense of reality, so he needs someone to stab him to make him feel real and alive.

It is also because of this mentality that those who don't take him in their eyes, those who are very unkind to him, Jia Baoyu will put it on the top of his heart.

Jia Baoyu has been playing with Xue Baoqin for two days, and he is also familiar with Xue Baoqin, so he naturally discovered that although this Xue Baoqin is young and naïve, he is still the same as Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun.

Xue Baoqin's behavior made Jia Baoyu feel empty again. A sense of unreality. Of course, Jia Baoyu didn't know his feelings, but he just felt faintly. Xue Baoqin is not the person he is looking for.

Xing Xiuyan is the opposite.

Xing Xiuyan knew that neither Jia Lian nor Jia Baoyu was a person he could imagine, so his mentality was also very correct. Xue Baoqin can laugh with Jia Baoyu, but Xing Xiuyan is different. After being reminded by the girls and grandmothers around her, Xing Xiuyan knew very well that Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang would never be willing to let themselves and Jia Baoyu have any results. What's more, his own aunt is still lying in the house. I got close to Jia Baoyu, and I was the first to be sorry. is the aunt who was hurt by Jia Baoyu's biological mother and still doesn't know about it.

So Xing Xiuyan made a decision from the beginning to keep her distance from Jia Baoyu. In this way, he will not offend Mrs. Jia Muwang, nor will he discredit his aunt, Mrs. Xing. I won't offend my cousin or cousin.

But where does Xing Xiuyan know. It was because of his attitude that Jia Baoyu was even more sticky to him.

Polite and self-controlled.

This is Jia Baoyu's first request for the person he likes.

This may be the inferior nature of men, when they see a beautiful girl, they want to provoke it and take advantage of it. But if it is his future wife, he hopes that this girl will be reserved enough and self-loving enough, and will not be swayed by money, wealth, and power, and will not be close to him because of these things.

Because most men know it. A woman, since she will be close to herself because of external factors such as money, wealth, and power. In the future, they may also have sold themselves for these things.

Nowhere was this more evident than in that palatial court. The emperor will pamper one woman after another, give them fame, give them glory and wealth, but he will never forget to beware of these women, let alone give trust.

Because the emperors of previous dynasties knew very well that these women entered the palace for the glory of the concubines, which was not only their inner ambition, but also their family's requirements for these women. As long as the emperor is clear-minded, they will not think that they have this honor and encounter exceptions.

Jia Baoyu is the same.

Although no one told him about these things and not, although Jia Baoyu was a little sick, Jia Baoyu himself knew very well that those girls would please him, not because of him, but because he was Jia Baoyu, Jia's mother's favorite grandson, and with him, these girls would be able to enjoy a rich and easy life.

Jia Baoyu also knew very well that his cousin would not please him, that was because his cousin had never wanted to get any benefits from him, and she didn't need to please someone by herself.

As for the other girls in the family,

His sister Tanchun needs him to curry favor with Madame Wang and seek a future for herself.

His cousin Xue Baochai needed him to curry favor with his sister in the palace and seek benefits for their Xue family.

What's more, he even knew that Shi Xiangyun also needed to curry favor with Jia's mother in exchange for a more comfortable and relaxed living environment.

Jia Baoyu has always been clear.

Therefore, on the surface, he often plays with Tanchun, Shi Xiangyun, and Xue Baochai, but these three people together do not have as much weight as Jia Jiu in Jia Baoyu's heart. is also very clear that this cousin can't wait to keep his distance from him, so Jia Baoyu respects Jia Jiu's choice and doesn't bother this cousin when he is idle.

Jia Baoyu always thought that there was only one second sister in the world, and now there is another Xing Xiuyan who obviously wants to keep a distance from him, why doesn't Jia Baoyu care?

Jia Baoyu thought for a while, thinking that the girls in the world were all in our house, but now I realized that she was the frog at the bottom of the well, and she looked down on the women in the world. After a while, I thought about it, and said that the same birthday is husband and wife, Sister Qin and herself are on the same birthday, but they have a family, and now Sister Xing is the same year, the same month and the same day as herself, he was originally from the south, but he came to this mansion, is it not the fate of God?

With such a thought in my heart, this stupidity became more and more obvious. It is also thanks to his beautiful face, coupled with Jia's mother's attention to him, so that his upbringing is not too bad, otherwise, he will be Xue Pan's second.

Rao is like this, Xing Xiuyan was also made by Jia Baoyu's cheeks crimson, very embarrassed.

Jia Baoyu's abnormality, everyone here has noticed it, Jia's mother has noticed it, Mrs. Wang has noticed it, Aunt Xue has noticed it, and even Xue Baochai Shi Xiangyun and others below can see it clearly.

Mrs. Jia Muwang was very sure that it was impossible for Xing Xiuyan to marry Jia Baoyu, because they would not allow it. But Aunt Xue's heart was like playing a drum.

Aunt Xue regretted it immensely.

Why didn't he take the opportunity to add fuel to the fire back then, and directly let the official media exchange the marriage letter and Geng post? At that time, if you don't think about it, the matter of the two children has already been settled. Now it's good, Qin'er came first, and suddenly fell into the eyes of the old lady, if it wasn't for the fact that she took the child's marriage contract with her, she pushed it away, but I was afraid that this old lady would propose to Qin'er for Baoyu. Qin'er is her niece, and she can still speak, but what about this Xing Xiuyan? Although this Xing Xiuyan's family is not very good, the old lady once said that Baoyu's wife does not need a high family, nor is it rare to have any dowry, as long as she is good and good-looking. Although Xing Xiuyan's family is poor, he is a serious official eunuch, and his grandfather has also been an official. Even if he doesn't have a dowry, but looking at his current dress, he knows that he is very much in the eyes of this Jia Junjun.

Jia Junjun's energy, others don't know, how can their Xue family not know? And how did the old lady not know?

only took pity on his daughter Xue Baochai, who delayed her youth in vain, and she has no place until now.

Aunt Xue is worried.

Xue Baochai was also worried.

His age was among the girls present, and he turned out to be the oldest, not to mention that he had been delayed for a few years, and he would definitely be delayed for at least a year!

Xue Baochai is already sixteen years old this year, and if he delays for another year, he will talk about family affairs, and he will have to wait until he is seventeen years old, or even eighteen years old. At that time, he was already an old girl, no, he can be considered an old girl now.

Xue Baochai is really able to understand Jia Yuanchun's feelings at the beginning, and he also knows very well what kind of mood Jia Yuanchun is in to calculate him.

It's just that it is clear and clear, but he can't accept it in his heart.

Why do I have to pay so much and only get this?

Xue Baochai was not convinced.

Fortunately, his reason told him that Xing Xiuyan was Mrs. Xing's daughter, and Mrs. Xing was still lying in the house because of Mrs. Wang. Therefore, the possibility that Xing Xiuyan will marry Jia Baoyu is very low. As long as Jia Jiu shows his attitude, this Xing Xiuyan will keep his distance from Jia Baoyu.

As for Mrs. Wang's considerations, Xue Baochai didn't think it would be a problem at all. He knows better than anyone what kind of person Mrs. Wang is and how soft her ears are. As long as the people around Mrs. Wang say a few words, Mrs. Wang can change her mind. What's more, Xing Xiuyan can't directly bring any benefits to Jia Baoyu, these benefits are all indirectly leaked out of Jia Jiu's hands. If Jia Jiu showed his attitude, then his good aunt who hated the poor and loved the rich, greedy for power and short-sighted, would definitely give up Xing Xiuyan.

The only thing that can give him a headache is Jia Baoyu's heart for Xing Xiuyan.

If Jia Baoyu is sincere, it will undoubtedly be a troublesome matter. Because Jia's mother will not wronged her own grandson. Xing Xiuyan is different from Shi Xiangyun, it is impossible for Shi Xiangyun to be a concubine for Jia Baoyu, Shi Xiangyun and Xue Baochai are fighting for the position of Jia Baoyu's wife. But Xing Xiuyan is the daughter of the Xing family, and the Xing family is in such a situation, if Jia's mother has a temper, if Jia's mother wants to make Jia Baoyu happy, she may force Xing Xiuyan to be a concubine for Jia Baoyu.

Xue Baochai is not afraid that Jia Baoyu's heart is on the woman outside, because the woman outside will not threaten his status. But a second-room grandmother who has a strong background and has the heart of her husband more than him can threaten his status and even the future of his children.

Xue Baochai couldn't take this risk.

Looking at Xing Xiuyan and Jia Baoyu in front of him, one silently refused, and the other was diligent, Xue Baochai told himself in his heart that Xing Xiuyan's marriage, he can't make the decision himself, and the one who can really influence his marriage is the old lady above, and the other is this Jia Junjun sitting below.
