Chapter 185: Baochai asks for help
When Wang Xifeng heard that it was just a matter of the imperial businessman, he secretly despised the Xue family in his heart, what kind of big deal should he be.
Xue Baochai said and took out two silver tickets, and continued: "I won't let you and Second Brother Lian work in vain, these three thousand taels will be regarded as a thank you gift, if the matter is done, the Xue family will still have a lot of thanks." ”
When Wang Xifeng saw the silver ticket, he suddenly felt a little angry in his heart, and sneered: "You are cold to me, if I accept this money, who else will dare to come to me in the future, and my relatives will not treat me as a person who only recognizes money and does not recognize people." ”
When Xue Baochai heard this, he immediately understood that he was reckless, and he only knew that Sister Feng collected money to do things, so he thought about taking the money to ask for help, but he forgot the relationship between the two families, and hurriedly smiled: "It's that I just said the wrong thing, I have always known that my sister is the most warm-hearted, but this time I want Second Brother Lian to come forward to help the Xue family, and we can't let you help us, and we have to pay for it ourselves." ”
Wang Xifeng's face looked better when he heard this, and he still excused himself: "I shouldn't excuse you when you open your mouth, but this matter is very important, and I don't dare to follow." ”
Xue Baochai saw that Wang Xifeng still didn't let go, and couldn't tell for a while whether she was pretending to be a gesture or really didn't want to help, so she hurriedly continued to beg: "Just let Second Brother Lian help restrain my brother, and I can help say a few words when I encounter something, and I won't let Second Brother Lian bother with anything else." ”
When Wang Xifeng heard this, he reluctantly said: "Since I want the second master to come forward, I still have to discuss it with him." ”
Xue Baochai was relieved when he saw Wang Xifeng's mouth, and said with a smile: "Thank you Sister Feng for being so little sister." ”
Wang Xifeng hurriedly said: "Don't be busy thanking you first, it doesn't count if I promised." ”
Xue Baochai said with a smile: "With Sister Feng coming forward, how can Second Brother Lian have no reason not to do it." ”
Wang Xifeng was a little proud when he heard this, but he said: "I can't be the master of their masters." ”
Xue Baochai continued to compliment Wang Xifeng, and during the chat, he intentionally or unintentionally expressed that he didn't want to marry Baoyu.
Wang Xifeng understood, his hostility towards Xue Baochai was slightly reduced, and his attitude was closer, promising to persuade Jia Lian.
The two talked for a while, and Xue Baochai saw that there was something in charge, so he offered to say goodbye and quietly left the silver ticket on the couch.
Wang Xifeng caught a glimpse of Xue Baochai's movements, but he didn't see it, and didn't say anything to stop it, but just asked Ping'er to send Xue Baochai out of the yard.
When Jia Lian came back, Wang Xifeng talked about Xue Baochai's visit today, and took out three thousand taels of silver tickets.
When Jia Lian saw the silver ticket, he wanted to reach out to get it, but he was slapped on the back of his hand by Wang Xifeng, so he hurriedly retracted his hand, touched the back of the beaten hand, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Isn't it just to look at Xue Da Fool and help the Xue family say a few words, this matter is simple, promise them." ”
Wang Xifeng reminded: "It's easy to say, but if the Xue family loses the election, they will blame you if they can't keep it!" ”
Jia Lian smiled indifferently: "What's this, whether the Xue family is an imperial merchant or not has something to do with us, if it really loses, it's a good thing, the second wife of the province talks about the Xue family all day long." ”
Wang Xifeng hesitated for a while and nodded: "Okay, Ming'er, I'll let Ping'er tell Bao Yatou." ”
Jia Lian thought for a while and said, "But if you have to deal with a group of businessmen, you will lose the identity of our Guogong Mansion, and I can't come forward in person!" ”
Wang Xifeng shook his head and said: "If you don't come forward, I'm afraid it won't be easy to fool the past, Bao Yatou is very shrewd!" ”
Jia Lian smiled: "It's okay, just let Brother Yun go for a trip." ”
Wang Xifeng nodded and said: "That's okay, Yun'er can speak habitually, and she has eyesight, so it's just right for him to be sent to him." ”
When Jia Lian heard this, he thought of something, so he asked, "I heard Brother Yun say that you let Xiaohong out?" ”
Wang Xifeng explained: "Yun'er and Xiaohong are always in the house, sooner or later they will be discovered, if something happens that is not investigated, then it will affect the reputation of the two of us, and when Yun'er marries Xiaohong, I will call her in." ”
Jia Lian nodded and said: "It's still thoughtful for you, it's really inappropriate to put the two of them together, but if you do this, I'm afraid you will offend Lin Zhixiao and his wife." ”
"It's okay, I'll ask Ping'er to say hello to Lin Zhixiao's family one day!" Wang Xifeng said that he still wanted to win over Lin Zhixiao and his wife through Xiaohong.
Jia Lian nodded and said, "Now Brother Yun is not young, I will go and talk to Lin Zhixiao about his marriage to Xiaohong after a while." ”
Wang Xifeng smiled: "You love him, it's all about him." ”
Jia Lian smiled and said: "Brother Yun has been following me these days, and if you do your best, I can't treat him badly." ”
Wang Xifeng nodded, and after saying a few words about Jia Yun, he asked, "Have you been looking for Uncle Lin these days?" ”
Jia Lian's expression was a little serious when he heard this, and he shook his head and said, "Uncle Lin asked me not to go to him for this time, and said that we should be patient for the time being." ”
"What does Uncle Lin mean by this? Did we find out that we lied? Wang Xifeng frowned.
Jia Lian shook his head and said: "I don't know, I shouldn't have found it, Uncle Lin just said that the second wife is protected by the concubine and the Wang family at the moment, and it is not appropriate to startle the snake now, to be honest, you took the liberty of making a move on Baoyu last time, I don't agree very much, if the second wife really finds out that you are playing a ghost, and sue the old lady, we will not be able to end well." ”
Wang Xifeng said angrily: "What are you afraid of, it's a big deal that the fish dies and the net is broken." ”
Jia Lian hurriedly reassured: "I didn't say that I wouldn't let you make a move, but you have to be careful." ”
Wang Xifeng nodded when he heard this, his anger calmed down a little, he thought about it and said: "It's okay not to shoot directly, but you can't just cheapen her like this, it just so happens that the second master is going to be released, we can do more things on Baoyu." ”
Jia Lian nodded and said, "That's fine, but you should be careful yourself, don't be plotted by anyone again." ”
After Wang Xifeng heard this, he thought of being plotted against him a few months ago, and nodded with palpitations, although he had a few suspicious targets in his heart, but he couldn't find out who it was.
After Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng discussed, they asked someone to call Jia Yun and hand over the affairs of the Xue family to Jia Yun to handle.
Jia Yun told Lu Jing about it that day, and Lu Jing sighed in her heart, Xue Baochai's move was okay, and he could even think of asking Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng for help, and this errand fell on Jia Yun by mistake.
Jia Lian and Jia Yun are the two most capable people in the Jia family's lineage and side branches, although they do not have an overall view of political affairs, but they are outstanding in general affairs and have good abilities.
After Lu Jing thought about it for a while, he instructed Jia Yun to help the Xue family as much as possible.
The next day, Wang Xifeng asked Ping'er to lead Jia Yun to meet the mother and daughter of the Xue family, and conveyed Jia Lian's words, let Jia Yun come forward for him first, and when he was needed, he would go out in person.
Aunt Xue saw that Jia Lian only sent a side branch of the Jia family to deal with the matter, and she was so angry that she couldn't sit still, and she almost went to Wang Xifeng to recover the silver, but was stopped by Xue Baochai.
Although Xue Baochai was also dissatisfied in his heart, he still forced himself to calm down, asked Jia Yun a few questions through the curtain, and saw that Jia Yun's answer was reasonable and well-organized, and he was suddenly a little curious in his heart.
Hurriedly sent someone to inquire about Jia Yun's deeds in detail, and after learning about Jia Yun's affairs, he recognized Jia Yun's ability, so he persuaded Aunt Xue to be calm for the time being, and see Jia Yun's performance.
