Chapter 496: Xue Baochai is a matchmaker
Originally, the pavilion here was surrounded by some verandahs and curved bridges, built on the water in the pool, and the four sides were withered with paper on the lake.
Xue Baochai was standing outside the pavilion at the moment, and suddenly heard someone talking inside, so he hurriedly stopped his steps, stopped and walked slowly inside, and listened carefully, only to hear the person inside talking: "Look at this handkerchief, it is really the piece you lost, you take it, if not, you will return to the second master." Another man spoke: "It's not mine!" Bring it to me. Then he said, "What do you give me thanks?" Could it be that it was found in vain? Then he replied, "Since I have promised to thank you, I will not coax you." Then he said, "When I find it for you, thank me, but if you are only a picker, you will not give him any thanks?" He replied, "Don't talk nonsense. He is a gentleman, and he picked my things, so he should naturally return them. What shall I thank him? Then he said, "If you don't thank him, how can I repay him?" Besides, he told me again and again, if you don't thank you, you won't be allowed to give it to you. After a while, he replied, "Well, give him this from me, and thank him." ---- you want to tell someone? You have to swear an oath. Then he said, "If I tell a man, he will have a boil, and he will not die well." Then he said, "Oh! Let's just talk, and see someone come and whisper outside. It's better to push this mallet away, that is, when someone sees us here, they only let us say nasty things. If you come to it, we can see it, so don't talk about it. But when Xue Baochai heard this outside, he was also taken aback, and secretly thought: "No wonder those people who have been roosters and dog thieves from ancient times to the present day have good scheming." Now this is what has opened my eyes, if these two people see me here, wouldn't they be ashamed to panic? What's more, the voice of what these two people said just now was similar to the words of Hong'er in Sister Feng's room. ”
"This Hong'er used to follow Baoyu's house to listen to errands, and then she was asked by Sister Feng, she has always been hollow-eyed, and she is a first-class tricky and eccentric thing."
"Today, I listened to her short, and for a while people rebelled in a hurry, and dogs jumped over the wall in a hurry, not only did they make trouble, but I was not interested. Now I'm in a hurry to hide, and I can't hide from it, so I have to make a 'golden cicada out of its shell'. At this moment, Xue Baochai was still staying in this place, and before he finished thinking about it, he suddenly heard it again
With a "squeak", Xue Baochai deliberately lowered his steps again, and shouted with a smile: "Feng'er, I see where you are hiding!" While speaking, he deliberately rushed forward.
As soon as the red jade pendant in the pavilion pushed the window, they heard Baochai say this and rushed forward, and both of them were stunned.
Xue Baochai smiled at the two of them and said, "What are you two maids doing hiding here?" When Shen'er saw Xue Baochai coming, he hurriedly said: "We are not hiding here to do anything bad, but to discuss the things we will be busy with later, and arrange the division of labor." Xue Baochai is not a character who loves to embarrass people, and when he heard Shen'er's words, he also said with a smile: "I just watched a few maids squatting over there on the other side of the river, but it was lively, why didn't you two go?" It is also busy, and you can also relax and play a little bit, so as not to get tired and have problems. Speaking of which, you two maids are also regarded as old maids in our Rongguo Mansion, who followed us more than a hundred years ago, and can be regarded as loyal figures, but today I want to quietly bluff you, and before you come to the front, you have seen me first, and I will go into the inner room to take a look, and I will sit down and listen. While speaking, Xue Baochai deliberately went in and sat down, and after sitting down in the room, he moistened his throat and said, "Do you two have anything to tell me?" I'm not Sister Feng, even if I know about you, I won't embarrass you. If you don't say it, let Sister Feng know, but you can be careful about this layer of skin on your body. While speaking, Xue Baochai also looked at the two maids, originally she didn't plan to come over to take care of this matter, but she saw that Hong'er and Shen'er were the old maids in Rongguo's mansion, and the maids next to her were also settled, how could she not arrange for them!
And the news that Xue Baochai heard before is not bad news, if it can really fulfill a marriage, it will be a good thing.
Seeing Xue Baochai asking about his words, and hearing Xue Baochai move Wang Xifeng out, the mentality of the two of them was not good, and they were anxious and helpless, so they had to look at Xue Baochai and said: "Concubine Bao, we didn't mean not to say it, but this matter is also funny." ”
"What's a funny way to talk about it?" Xue Baochai was also interested when he heard this, and hurriedly looked at the two people and said.
Shen'er also looked at Xue Baochai, didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said bluntly: "But it has something to do with Sister Hong'er!" ”
"Concubine Baoniang, I was wrong! I won't dare next time, so just spare me this time! Unexpectedly, when Hong'er heard Shen'er's words, she also knelt on the ground with a plop, which made Xue Baochai also stunned, and hurriedly said, "What's wrong with you?" What's going on? ”
"But that's not the case." Hong'er knelt on the ground, as if she had fallen into a memory, and hurriedly said: "A hundred years ago, I once gave my embroidered handkerchief to Second Master Yun, and after Second Master Yun got my embroidered handkerchief, because I never had the opportunity to see it, it was already a hundred years later. ”
"A few days ago, Second Master Yun asked someone to send this embroidered handkerchief to me, just to let me know that his mind has never changed, and he has been waiting for a hundred years, but I have to cry." Xue Baochai also felt amused when he heard this: "This matter is a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier?" Why do you delay until now? If you had told me about it, I wouldn't have embarrassed you. ”
"Concubine Baoniang, it's not that I don't say it to Hong'er, but I don't dare!" Hong'er trembled, her heart became bitter, and she said, "Please also ask the noble concubine to forgive me for the crime of missing words, otherwise, I will not dare to say it." ”
"There is no one else here, Daiyu and they have all gone elsewhere, they have gone to other places to play, I am the only one here, you tell me, I will forgive your sins." Xue Baochai is a good heart, and when he heard Hong'er's words, he also nodded, forgave Hong'er's sins, and spoke.
Seeing that Xue Baochai was unwilling to pursue the matter, Shen'er next to him also thought that this matter should be covered up like this, but he didn't know what the final result of the two of them was.
After more than 100 years of waiting, Second Master Yun is really an infatuated seed! But speaking of which, Second Master Yun is also a capable person.
Jia Huan treats this Jia Yun well, this nephew is a real talent in Jia Huan's eyes, much more powerful than Jia Baoyu and others.
Therefore, after Jia Huan ascended the throne, he also took good care of this Jia Yun. Such a Jia Yunguan is a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and he can be regarded as a member of the court of the second grade.
At this point, it's not low. However, Jia Yun has not married a wife and had children so far, which is also strange.
Now that Xue Baochai heard about this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said, "Hong'er, are you worried about Your Majesty's thoughts?" You're a lake! Your Majesty, if it was really interesting to you, I would have attacked you a long time ago. ”
"Look, Xiangling, Raider, Ping'er, didn't they get into their pockets early?"
"This marriage between you and Brother Yun, Your Majesty will not easily break up the two of you. If one of you speaks before your husband, you will not end up in this fate. ”
"Two people playing dumb riddles with us?" When Xue Baochai heard this, he was also painted by Hong'er's actions.
How many beautiful women are there in this world? Jia Huan is accompanying Lin Daiyu and others, and it is not enough.
Not to mention these maids! Regarding Hong'er's matter, Jia Huan really didn't plan to include Hong'er in the harem.
It's just because the love between Jia Yun and Hong'er is a rare love in the world of Red Mansions. These two people also came together.
It's a really valuable pair. It's just that Jia Huan is not sure whether the pair of mandarin ducks can become a pair again because of his arrival, so he didn't take the initiative to ask about it.
Unexpectedly, this has passed a hundred years in a hurry! These two people have also been waiting for a hundred years, and if it weren't for Xue Baochai accidentally bumping into these two maids laughing, I'm afraid that this matter would have to be delayed.
Although Jia Huan is also greedy, they are all maids such as Qingwen, Raiders, and Ping'er, and that is the existence that makes Jia Huan tempted.
Hong'er's words are not of much interest. When Hong'er heard it now, she felt the distress of the five thunders.
She really felt sorry for herself and Jia Yun. If I had said it earlier, I might not have had to wait for more than 100 years.
Who knew that Hong'er listened to Xue Baochai's words, so she nodded, and asked Xue Baochai to preside over her life's major events and complete the delayed matter.
In a hundred years, Hong'er's parents Lin Zhixiao and Lin Zhixiao's family have not died. This is also thanks to Jia Huan's blessing, after the establishment of the Qiyun Dynasty, the resources of heaven and earth and the average life expectancy of human beings have directly increased to three hundred years.
It only takes a little cultivation to reach this age. This is the benefit of cultivating the world. The higher the level of cultivation world, the longer the immortality of all beings.
Just like those people at the beginning of the desolate world, they were born as innate sacred, either immortals or saints, and it can be said that they have already been immortal.
The more you go to the back, the thinner the resources of heaven and earth become, and the lifespan of sentient beings decreases.
Now Jia Huan rebelled against the origin of heaven and earth, and by sacrificing the ancient core resources of other stars, supplementing the resources of the entire Red Mansion world, it was also beneficial to these people, even if it was just those little people, they could still get amazing benefits.
This is the great change brought about by the transformation of the world, everyone is like a dragon, nothing more than that! Xue Baochai looked at Hong'er in front of him, shook his head and sighed, then let the pendant next to him pull up Hong'er and said, "It's amazing!" The fact that the two of you have been able to hide it for more than a hundred years must have shocked me! Shen'er also heard about this incident, and he was silent for a long time.
Ruby said again, "What about this? I also hope that Concubine Bao will be in charge. Shen'er said in her heart: "It is the concubine who is in charge, and the opinions of other girls, especially the opinions of the queen." Xue Baochai also looked at Hongyu when he heard this, and said, "I will discuss this matter with my husband and others, and I will give you a satisfactory answer." After that, Xue Baochai just got up and left directly.
Hongyu looked at Xue Baochai, who was leaving, and said in her heart: "Is there really hope for this matter?" As the two were talking, they saw civil officials, Xiangling, Si Qi, and waiting for books to come to the pavilion.
They had to hide their words and laugh with them. Seeing that Wang Xifeng was standing on the hillside at the moment waving and shouting to everyone, Hongyu hurriedly abandoned everyone, ran to Wang Xifeng, and asked with a smile on her face: "Concubine Xi, what did you ask me to do?" Wang Xifeng glanced at Hong'er a few times, her eyes went up and down to forgive her, seeing that she was clean and pretty, and her words were interesting, she smiled and said, "You girl has followed me for many years." I'll think of one thing at this point, and I'm going to get someone out, and I know you're a capable, well-spoken person, so I'll send you there. Hongyu smiled and said, "If Concubine Xi has anything to say, just tell me to go." If you don't say it completely, and you miss Concubine Xi's mother, you can punish Concubine Xi's mother. Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "What were you talking to Baochai just now?" Hongyu said: "Concubine Xi, I didn't say much to Concubine Bao, just said some small things." Wang Xifeng only smiled when he heard this, and said, "Hmm! I don't believe you, weird. Well, when Baochai comes over later, I'll go and ask in person to see if you have anything to hide from me. How many years have you been in our house, tell you Sister Ping: There is a roll of silver under the Ru kiln plate rack on the table in the outer room, which is one hundred and sixty taels, and the salary for the embroiderer. Then there was a small purse between the bedside and brought it. ”
"Okay!" Hong'er nodded hurriedly and said.
"Let's go!" Wang Xifeng looked at Hong'er and said with a smile. Then, Hong'er disappeared in front of Wang Xifeng and ran away as if flying.
It wasn't until after Hong'er left that Xue Baochai walked over from not far away, looked at Wang Xifeng with a smile, and said, "How?" Do you think this can happen? ”
