Chapter 807: It's a pity for Baochai
Xiangyun's heart was full of embarrassment, but in the end, she still knew the severity, Daiyu is now the appointed princess of Heng, and she has been promoted to the county lord, which is not something she can easily offend. The ancestor specially explained yesterday that he is a married person, and he must know the rules, and he can't be "straightforward and fast" anymore, otherwise even she won't be able to protect herself.
The ancestors have said so, what else can Xiangyun do now? She was so angry that she cried all night in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion yesterday, and she had to admit that Daiyu is now a sparrow flying on the branch and has completely turned into a phoenix.
Yingchun and Xichun were overjoyed to see Daiyu, they were originally close to Daiyu, Daiyu had a lifelong dependence, and her status was noble, and they would also be guaranteed in the future.
Tanchun is in a complicated mood.
The only crazy thing she did in her life was to take the opportunity to express her affection to her sweetheart Lin Zhao, and then received feedback from the other party, and once thought that she had a lifelong hope.
Who knew that it didn't take long for the news that this cousin Lin and Baochai were engaged, and for a while, it was like five thunderbolts, making her almost sick in bed.
Fortunately, she has always been strong, and she has known to protect herself with a hard and thorny shell since she was a child, so when she heard the bad news, she didn't even have a single tear, but she just stayed in Qiushuang for a day and recovered as before.
When she saw Daiyu at this time, she was happy that Daiyu could have a good life, but she was secretly sad, and she didn't know where her life was. Look at the sisters who grew up together on weekdays, Yingchun has been ruled by Sister Feng and has a good family; Xichun is still young; Baochai is clearly scheduled to give it to the negative person; only herself, obviously only a few months younger than Daiyu, but Mrs. Wang is still reluctant to open her mouth to show herself, you must know that you have always been filial and polite to Mrs. Wang, and even crossed her aunt.
Now that the old man is out, he has not taken away his aunt, and the aunt has listened to the advice of herself and Brother Huan, and has stopped causing trouble for her wife, but why is she?
The waiter secretly tugged at his own girl and reminded her to come back to her senses. Tanchun was stunned for a moment, hurriedly put on a smile, and frolicked with everyone.
The servant sighed in her heart, she grew up with Tanchun since childhood, and thought that she naturally knew her girl's thoughts, and the girl had been serving her wife carefully in the past, and it was also for this, but unfortunately Aunt Zhao always couldn't see through it in the past, and she caused a lot of trouble to the girl. The poor girl, who did not know what the future would be, and the thought that she would marry with the girl in the future, could not help but be worried.
Because there is venison today, Baoyu is clamoring to roast venison to eat, and everyone loves to play and coaxes. Daiyu is now well, and she has eaten a piece, and when she wants to eat it again, she was quickly stuffed with a cup of tea by the snow goose, and Mama Rong coughed again, Daiyu, as the master, naturally has to be more self-disciplined, so she smiled faintly, stood aside, drank tea and watched everyone eat. Baoqin didn't eat much before she stood up, and Snow Goose quickly brought her a cup of tea. She thanked her and started talking to Daiyu.
Baoqin is not an ordinary woman, since she was a child, she and her father have traveled from south to north, she has seen a lot of the world, her knowledge is also high, and she has read a lot of Daiyu's travelogues and miscellaneous notes, and the two of them are very compatible with the customs and habits of many places, and they can't help but hate each other late. Baoqin is an old-fashioned and warm-hearted person, and he is young, and after a while, he introduced Daiyu as a confidant, and talked about the purpose of his family coming to Beijing: it was for his marriage to the third son of Mei Hanlin's family.
Because Prince Heng was working in the Hanlin Academy, Lin Zhao copied out several bachelors and edited character records of the Hanlin Academy and showed them to Daiyu.
In the document, this Mei Hanlin has the lowest evaluation, this person is obviously from a poor background, but he looks down on poverty the most, and he is a hypocritical and thorough person.
Jin Yiwei wants to investigate an official in Beijing, but he is afraid that even his ancestors can find out for eight generations, and Daiyu is an unforgettable character, remembering his understanding of Mei Hanlin, he can't help but secretly worry about Baoqin's marriage.
She thought for a while and said cryptically: "Miss Qin, your marriage contract with the third son of the Mei family is scheduled before the Mei family enters Beijing, right?"
Daiyu blushed and said: "Because of Prince Heng, my brother specially investigated the background of all the Hanlin Academy, this eldest lady of the Mei family, married to the eldest son of the Jinling Jiedu envoy family, I heard that the eldest prince of the family was also married, and he was a young lady of a wealthy merchant in his ancestral hometown, only to regret it later, and married another Miss of the Mei family." ”
Baoqin is so smart, as soon as she heard Daiyu say this, her face immediately changed: she and her brother came to Beijing, attached themselves to the Xue family's big house, lived in the Xue Mansion, and went to the Rongguo Mansion with her sister E, in order to borrow the power of the Jia family so that the Mei family would not regret the marriage. But according to Lord Lin, this Mei family is ruthless and unjust, even if he doesn't dare to offend Rongguo Mansion now, he is afraid that he will still regret his marriage if he has the opportunity in the future. Baoqin's mind spun quickly, and after a while, he asked, "I don't know if the county lord knows, is there anyone in the Mei family who is at home now?"
Daiyu couldn't bear to be delayed, so she whispered: "My brother's document makes it very clear that Mei Hanlin will be released after the Dragon Boat Festival. ”
Baoqin's face suddenly turned pale, and her body was a little shaky.
She has been in Beijing for a while, and she and her sister have been guests in Rongguo Mansion a lot, and her brother has also gone to Mei's house to deliver the post, but they haven't even seen her brother, and now they want to go out again, are you going to drag yourself alone?
Daiyu stopped talking about it. Baoqin reluctantly settled down, dignified her face, picked up the teapot, poured tea for Daiyu herself, and said softly: "Thank you, Lord County." ”
Over there, Baochai shook over and said with a smile: "What funny things are you talking about?"
Daiyu said with a smile: "I heard Miss Qin say about the monuments she walked since she was a child, Miss Qin has really a wide range of knowledge, which is admirable." It's my sister-in-law's sister, but I'm very envious. ”
Bao Qin smiled: "I'm surprised." The county lord said that he had never been to those places, but the county lord was familiar with the customs and customs of those places, and he was very knowledgeable, which really made me admire. My sister is like this, but I don't know what kind of character my brother is. ”
When Daiyu said this, Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, Baochai's face was full of clouds, and she reached out to grab Baoqin's face in disgust: "You little hoof......"
Baoqin begged for mercy again and again: "Good sister, please spare me." ”
Baochai bypassed her in the middle of the ring, glanced at Daiyu and Baoqin, and said with a smile: "There are cups and plates of fruits and vegetables in the inner room, let's hurry up and go in and compose poems." ”
Daiyu and Baoqin looked at each other and smiled, and then went in hand with Baochai.
This time it was an instant couplet, the beginning was Li Kun, everyone was originally in order, and then it gradually became chaotic, robbed each other, and finally calculated, Xiangyun Lian was the most, Baoyu Lian was the least, Li Kun punished Baoyu to take lotus flowers with Miaoyu, and punished Li Wen, Baoqin, Xing Xiuyan to make lotus poems, and looked at the painting of Xichun, young sisters got together, and it was a lively day.
In the evening, Lin Zhao personally came to pick up Daiyu, Baochai's face was thin, and he had already avoided it, and everyone surrounded Lin Zhao for a good time, Lin Zhao saw that in addition to missing Baochai in the crowd, Tanchun was also missing, and he paused in his heart, and couldn't help but feel good.
He knows Tanchun's character better.
If Tanchun has passed this hurdle in his heart, he will definitely come to play with his cousin.
But she hid, presumably because of her shyness.
His own witty words, it seems, said that he went to his heart.
However, although Lin Zhao was enthusiastic, he didn't even eat dinner, so he took Daiyu away.
After Jia Mu heard about it, she thought about it for a long time and couldn't get the point, so she glared at Mrs. Wang hatefully and said, "Go yourself, I'm also tired, and I don't need you to serve in front of me." ”
Mrs. Wang saw that the Lin family was thriving now, and Daiyu was promoted to the county lord again, and she also had some regret in her heart. With the Lin family's father and son being the earl, won't Baoyu have no worries for the rest of his life in the future? Just thinking that the Lin family's property had been returned to the royal family, Mrs. Wang's heart hardened a little.
But after thinking about it, I didn't notice it, and let my sister promise Baochai to Lin Zhao, and the family lost millions of family assets.
My own sister is really, but she just let Baochai ascend for a year or two, as long as there is no movement in the belly of the lady in the palace, Baoyu will definitely marry Baochai.
Could it be that the status of the uncle's wife is not as good as the "lady" of the third grade?
You must know that Mrs. Wang herself is just a "pleasant" (Jia Zheng is a five-grade official), and her status is not comparable to Mrs. Xing and You Shi, but at home, she is firmly above Mrs. Xing, even when You Shi sees herself, she has to bow down.
It's a pity that Baochai is indeed a good boy.
