Chapter 176: Step Over Me
Xue Baochai really has something on his mind.
At the beginning, Master Xue moved his mind and wanted to give Xue Baoqin to Jia Lian. But later, Xue Baochai chose Jia Lian by himself, and the matter was naturally done.
This Xue Baoqin is younger than Daiyu, and he is now in his early eights. But he decided to marry early.
It turned out that Xue Baoqin had followed Second Uncle Xue around to do business since he was a child. Last year, I passed through Hubei and met my old acquaintance Mei's family.
This Mei family is very peculiar, it is a Hanlin family, and several generations of the family have served in the Hanlin Academy after being admitted to the Jinshi. But unlike Mr. Minghui, who concentrated on his studies in the Hanlin Academy, the Mei family is for hope.
Mei Sheng, the contemporary head of the family, spent eight years in the Hanlin Academy, and finally went to the prefect of Jingzhou Mansion in Hubei.
Mei Sheng liked Xue Baoqin very much when he saw him, and it happened that his sister-in-law was about the same age as Xue Baoqin. So he made a covenant with the Xue family about Qin and Jin.
Originally, this was a good thing, and the Mei family's family style was also upright, and Baoqin's marriage into the Mei family could even be regarded as a high climb.
This time, Second Uncle Xue was seriously ill, and he brought the letter to Shenjing to ask Jia Lian to come forward and ask the Mei family to get married as soon as possible.
After all, Second Uncle Xue knew that his life was short, and Baoqin's mother had phlegm again. Second Uncle Xue was worried that once the two died, the Mei family would ruin their relationship.
No, Xue Baochai just heard today that the son of the Mei family has entered Beijing.
Moreover, the Mei family entered Beijing at the invitation of another big businessman, the Xia family. And the Xia family also has a daughter of the right age to be married.
"Sister Bao, what's wrong with you?"
Xue Baochai looked up, and it turned out that Jia Lian, who he hadn't seen for a day, came back, followed by Liang Ruowei.
Baochai was happy all of a sudden: "Second brother, you're back." ”
Jia Lian stood with his hands in his hands and said to Xue Baochai: "Early tomorrow morning, Ruowei will go to Jiangnan with Jia Yun." I brought her here today to see if you and your aunt have anything else to explain. ”
"Okay, please come in."
Xue Baochai and Jia Lian's wives and concubines were already very familiar, so they generously took Liang Ruowei's hand and walked inside.
It turned out that after Jia Lian returned home, he called Liang Ruowei and went to Lixiangyuan. Before entering the door, I saw Xue Baochai coming over thoughtfully, and I didn't feel a little curious.
Jia Lian followed into the door, and Aunt Xue had already greeted her after hearing the letter. It's rare that Xue Pan didn't go out to fool around today.
"It's not easy to meet you once." Jia Lian glanced at Xue Pan and snorted coldly.
Xue Pan was not as afraid of Jia Lian as before, he scratched his head and laughed.
Seeing that Jia Lian was getting more and more angry, Aunt Xue had already calmed down. I just wanted to rely on Jia Lian wholeheartedly, and when I heard Jia Lian say this, I hurriedly explained to my son: "Pan'er has made a lot of progress these days, and she doesn't go out to fool around much." Every day, I hold the old people at home and discuss something, and I feel happy when I see it. ”
Jia Lian was busy with business and repairing the garden during this time, but he didn't pay attention to Xue Pan for a while. It's just that from time to time, I heard my friends mention the "great achievements" of Xue's big head, of course, to ridicule him.
Unconsciously looked at Xue Baochai with some confusion, could it be that the big fool really changed his ways, Jia Lian said in disbelief.
Xue Baochai wanted to say something, but thinking that his brother really rarely went out during this time, he nodded.
Aunt Xue and Xue Pan both breathed a sigh of relief, they both knew that Jia Lian's belief in Baochai was better than her mother and son.
But maybe it was a little floating, Xue Pan immediately said: "There are only so many people in the Shenjing circle, and I can be regarded as having seen it." A few days ago, I had a drink with the one named Feng Ziying in the Shenwu General's Mansion, and there were two boys. At first, he was crazy, but a hundred taels of silver smashed over, and he didn't obediently take off his pants at Uncle Xue and pouted his ass......"
Before he finished speaking, he was kicked aside by Jia Lian.
Xue Pan saw his sister and Liang Ruowei, who were already blushing, scratched his head, and smiled embarrassedly.
"From today, a one-month lockdown. If you dare to go out one day early, I will use the Xue family's family law to punish you. ”
Aunt Xue saw that Jia Lian was angry, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lian'er, Pan'er is used to being reckless, and she can't talk with her brain." He's not trying to be disrespectful to his aunt, don't be angry. ”
Xue Baochai also hurriedly said to Liang Ruowei: "Sister, my brother didn't mean to despise my sister. Please don't mind, sister. ”
Liang Ruo shook his head slightly, indicating that he was fine.
Jia Lian didn't say anything, and bypassed Xue Pan and entered the main hall.
Seeing Jia Lian, who was already sitting in the main hall and posing for a long time, Aunt Xue and the others quickly sat down in the hall.
"Auntie, do you think I punished my cousin just because he was abrupt?"
Aunt Xue was stunned: "Is there another secret?" "I really didn't expect that. Aunt Xue was still a little unhappy just now, and her son was speaking inappropriately. But Liang Ruowei is just a concubine, why did Jia Lian get so angry.
Especially when she saw her daughter bow low and make herself small, and apologize to Liang Ruowei, Aunt Xue's heart was even more unbalanced.
The old lady in Rongqingtang had already revealed her words, and after the New Year, let Baochai enter the door.
After all, Baochai has been following Jia Lian without a name or a point in the past few years, even if the Jia family is not afraid of any rumors, they have to think about Baochai.
In this way, it is a matter of time for Xue Baochai to officially become the wife of the Jia family. Moreover, Xue Baochai is the position of a flat wife.
Jia Lian is now an earl, and Xue Baochai will be the only equal wife. is second only to Wang Xifeng, but now he sees his daughter apologizing to a concubine.
Of course, Xue Baochai can understand better than Aunt Xue. Although Liang Ruowei is only a concubine, she is excellent in medical skills.
If you want to make yourself and your future children healthy, you must not be able to do without Liang Ruowei.
Of course, Jia Lian saw through Aunt Xue's thoughts, and he sighed: "My cousin has only been in Beijing for a few months, and now the upper circles of Shenjing accept him, and that's because I said hello."
If my cousin is just having fun in my circle, naturally I don't have much to say.
At that time, he was burdened by his uncle's orphanage, even if he couldn't teach his cousin to become a talent. It's okay to keep him safe and happy all his life.
When my cousin has a child in the future, I will teach my aunt if she wants to. When the child grows up, Fengzihao can be handed over to him with confidence. I also fulfilled my uncle's trust back then. ”
Seeing Aunt Xue and the others changing color one after another, Jia Lian didn't know what to do. continued: "But Shenjing is no better than Jiangnan, and the water is too deep. My cousin is simple-minded, and not everyone can touch it.
That Feng Ziying and General Shenwu's Mansion have a big stake, and their every move involves the court situation. I don't dare to set foot easily, Brother Xue is dating him, do you think your neck is too hard. ”
After saying this, Aunt Xue's face had turned pale: "Don't go, don't go, don't go out again." After that, Pan'er was grounded at home, and when he went out again, he stepped over me. ”
