Lu Wuyuan naturally didn't know what Jia Baoyu was forcing his family to do again.

Since Jia Baoyu left, the courtyard gate has been closed.

Baochai also collected his emotions and turned around and went back to the room.

Aunt Xue didn't sleep, she sat on the edge of the bed and looked at a handkerchief she had embroidered before.

When he saw her come in, he beckoned her over.

"Baoyu is gone?"

"Hmm", Baochai nodded.

Aunt Xue didn't say anything, let Baochai continue to make up, and after she cleaned up, the maids also went back to their rooms, and she asked, "Baochai, I have a few words I want to ask you, you have to tell me truthfully." ”

Baochai was slightly startled and was about to stand up.

Aunt Xue pulled her and patted the back of her hand to make her feel at ease.

"Mom has something to say, just ask, naturally I don't dare to lie to you......"

Baochai was reserved.

Aunt Xue took her hand and looked at her, knowing that she was sure to see all her daughter's expressions clearly, so she restrained her expression and said, "Tell me honestly, do you and Baoyu have a personal relationship?" ”

Although it was a night talk between mother and daughter in a private room. But Aunt Xue's question still caught Baochai off guard, and she looked a little panicked.

If it had been before, she would have denied it.

However, Jia Baoyu personally told her this morning that she would go to Xue's house in two days to propose marriage.

In this way, it seems that there is no need for her to hide from her mother anymore.

However, as a lady, the word "private love" is too shameful and difficult to say.

Aunt Xue's expression suddenly turned cold, and she said, "You are not honest!" ”

Baochai trembled, hurriedly got off the ground, knelt in front of Aunt Xue, and sobbed: "My daughter is not filial, admit the beating and accept the punishment, I just beg my mother not to be angry and hurt her body......"

As he spoke, he was already shedding hot tears.

Aunt Xue said, "So, is it true?" ”

Baochai nodded sheepishly.

Aunt Xue's expression changed slightly.

As a young lady, the most shameful thing is naturally to give and receive private things with men, so that they have private feelings.

A long time ago, she never thought that her daughter, who was raised by herself, knew books and etiquette since she was a child, and had generous rules, would also step into the "wrong way".

Baochai saw Aunt Xue's expression, her face turned paler, and she cried: "It's my daughter's unfilial piety that has ruined the family's style, my mother will punish me, I just beg my mother not to be sad and break her body......"

Aunt Xue was stunned for a moment, and found that her daughter had cried into tears.

She hurriedly put away her expression, pulled her up, and said, "Silly daughter, knowing a daughter is like a mother, do you think that your heart, I, as a mother, don't know anything at all?" ”

Baochai was stunned.

Aunt Xue sighed: "As early as after Baoyu's marriage was decreed by the Holy Decree, I guessed that it would be difficult for you to pass that hurdle, but the blame is only on our family's lack of blessings, and on the fact that I didn't do a good job at the beginning, and didn't take the opportunity to completely finalize your marriage with Baoyu......"

Baochai said: "Mom, don't say that, it has nothing to do with Mom, it's because my daughter is not blessed enough." ”

Aunt Xue shook her head and continued: "But there is no way, it has happened, and it is impossible for our family to fight for the prime minister's family after all."

I also know you're sad, but you've been smart and sensible since you were a child, and I thought you could stand it. ”

Baochai was stunned, she could stand it, but she couldn't keep someone using means to coax her.

"Later ......"

"Later, I was surprised to see that you and Baoyu did not get separated or estranged because of that incident, but became closer and closer."

Baochai is ashamed,

Yes, the two originally had a marriage contract, although it was only verbally from the parents of both sides, but so many people knew about it.

After the marriage contract naturally dissipates, how can the two of them get along as cousins and brothers as if nothing happened, how can it not be suspicious?

If this is the case, the mother is the only one who can see this, and how can none of those people in their house have such doubts?

So what did they think in the first place?

Baochai was a little surprised.

Aunt Xue glanced at her daughter, understood in her heart, and then said, "Originally, I thought it was because of what happened between you that the two of you could completely eliminate the estrangement.

Later, I saw that you were more concerned about Baoyu's affairs than before, and ...... I never mentioned re-entering the palace to be elected, and I knew that you must not have let go of Baoyu in your heart. ”

Aunt Xue didn't mention it, Baochai almost forgot about entering the palace. 7 Q

I was first shocked, and then relieved.

I heard that the emperor was dead, and even if she was willing to go again, she would not have a chance.

Therefore, he did not speak, but obediently listened to his mother.

"Over the years, you have suffered a lot in order to help me and the Xue family. You are my daughter, don't I feel sorry for you at all?

After perceiving your intentions, I am also conflicted.

I have the heart to fulfill you, but no matter what my Xue family says, it can be regarded as a century-old family, although it is declining, it will not let you marry someone else as a concubine. ”

Baochai said with tears in her eyes: "What the mother said is that her daughter is ignorant......

Aunt Xue shook her head, suddenly showing a look of surprise.

"Baoyu is a good boy, I saw it when he came to Nanjing. There is no one in our family, and I also know that if I want you to enter the palace, I am afraid of difficulties.

In fact, if you are really happy with each other, I also think that it would be good for you to simply fulfill you.

Even if you don't have wealth and honor, Baoyu is a good person, and you have something to rely on for the rest of your life.

But I didn't expect that Baoyu had such a great creation, went out to experience a catastrophe, and after returning to Beijing, he was knighted!

You don't know how relieved I was at the time.

I thought, if that's the case, if you marry over, it won't be too shameful for the Xue family, and after I die, I will have the face to see your father. ”

"Mom is kind, Baochai is ashamed." Baochai was moved, she didn't want to, her mother had thought so much about her.

Aunt Xue touched Baochai's face, pulled her back to the couch and sat down, and said, "But, after all, you can't be a wife, so, there is no such thing as a stammer."

You are all young, so I didn't show it to you.

Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, things had changed dramatically, Baoyu was actually a royal descendant, and he was also named a prince......"

Aunt Xue said, her eyes glistening.

She is different from Mrs. Wang, she has long believed that Jia Baoyu is a royal bloodline.

Although Baochai felt that her mother's current expression was a bit of a philistine, which damaged her glorious image, she also knew her mother's feelings, so she only lowered her head and listened to the next training.

"I never dreamed that we would have such a transformation. You know, before his death, your father was still thinking about letting you into the palace......"

Baochai blushed.

Entering the palace is not necessarily a woman for the emperor.

In people like them, most of the daughters who enter the palace are talented and good for the princesses and county lords.

Between entering and exiting the palace and the imperial city, you have the opportunity to see the dragon son and dragon grandson, and fly on the branches to become a phoenix.

But I don't know, the high branch is by his side, why bother to enter the palace?

That's how the mother feels, though it's different from her.

Aunt Xue sighed for a while, retracted her gaze, and said, "So, why are you hiding it from me now, can I still fulfill you at this time?"

This is where I you off!

Let me ask you, you and Baoyu used to be in contact with each other in the garden every day, but did you lose yourself to him? ”

Baochai's face was shocked, and he quickly shook his head.

Aunt Xue glanced at it twice, and finally relieved, and said, "Don't blame me for being troublesome, you should know that fornicating with a man without a name is despised by the world."

And even if Baoyu likes you, if it's too easy to get, the man's family will not be so easy to cherish. ”

Baochai bowed his head.

Aunt Xue also knew that this topic would make her daughter ashamed, but she still had to ask the most crucial point.

"Do you know that Baoyu was named King Jing, and according to the royal family etiquette, he can canonize two side concubines......

Aunt Xue looked at Baochai, and the meaning was self-evident.

Baochai's expression moved, looking at her mother's expectant and hopeful gaze, she couldn't bear to hide it from him anymore, and suddenly said ruthlessly: "Mother must not be suspicious of Baoyu, he said that in a few days, he will personally come to the door and ask his mother for marriage."

When the time comes, the mother will know. ”

Baochai said, her face unconsciously showing a shy and sweet look.

Baoyu, who was excellent to him, did not lie to her.

When he came back, he told her as soon as he could.

Aunt Xue didn't understand her daughter's answer at first, but when she looked at it, she understood.

So, Aunt Xue was full of comfort, exhausted all her bad emotions, took Baochai's hands, and lay down together. Then in the quilt, the mother and daughter asked and answered, talking about the experience of Baochai and Jia Baoyu getting along, and the shame and concealment cannot be described in detail.
