Because Xue Pan was going to Beijing on an errand, Mrs. Xue arranged her family properly, and after packing her luggage, she set off in a hurry.

Well, in addition to Pan'er to be on an errand, Baochai is also going to enter Beijing to be selected, so I have to go everywhere, so I can rest assured that I should enter Beijing early.

The Xue family was in a hurry along the way, and Xue Baobao pinched the opportunity to persuade, "Mom, the emperor has given our family such a great grace."

If you send me to the palace to be elected at this time, I am afraid that the emperor will think that we think that the grace he gave is not enough, and he is insatiable, and he will definitely annoy our family."

Mrs. Xue hesitated, and Xue Baobao said coquettishly, "Even if I can be selected, it is rare for my wife to be willing to marry into the royal family, and it will be difficult to see my wife again for the rest of my life?"

Moreover, my wife also knows that our family is a merchant after all, and even if it is chosen, most of it will be the side room of the emperor, or the princes and princes.

Madam, our family is not short of food or clothing, do you really want to give me to the royal family as a concubine? ”

Just kidding, although in the original book, Xue Baochai was defeated in the end.

But now that Feng Yuan is not dead, and Zhen Yinglian is still recognized as a righteous daughter by the Xue family, who knows how this butterfly wing will be fanned?

What if you get selected?

What did she do?

If you don't enter the palace, you will be killed, and the three clans of the Xue family will be unlucky.

Entering the palace, Mrs. Xue can prepare the coffin and wait to collect her body at all times.

Mrs. Xue hurriedly slapped Xue Baobao, "Don't say it, whether you are a mother or a side concubine, it is a great grace, what kind of concubine is not a concubine!" ”

Xue Baobao pouted, "Anyway, in my opinion, they are all concubines!" I'd rather my mother recruit me a door-to-door son-in-law who eats soft rice in the future, rather than be a concubine! ”

Mrs. Xue smiled angrily, "My daughter's son-in-law is not ashamed!" Don't say it, and see if I don't hit you! ”

The conversation between mother and daughter ended here, only Mrs. Xue knew that her daughter had an idea, if she really decided that she was sending her to be elected, she was going to send her to be a concubine with the royal family, and it would be difficult for her to force her, lest the mother and daughter become enemies.

Moreover, what the daughter said is also right, their family is not short of food and inheritance, and now Pan'er is also angry, but there is really no need to send her daughter into the palace, and the mother and daughter may not be able to see each other again in their lives.

Thinking like this, Mrs. Xue snuffed out the heart of sending Xue Baobao to be selected.

They were in a hurry, set off at the end of the first month, and arrived in the capital at the beginning of February.

As soon as he entered the capital, Xue Baobao lifted the curtain and looked out, and beckoned Zhen Yinglian to look.

Mrs. Xue didn't care about them, but pointed them out one by one.

She grew up in the capital since she was a child, and she hasn't been back for nearly 20 years.

When I arrived at Ningrong Street, it was very magnificent and luxurious as described in the original book, and the words "Rongguo Mansion" shone dazzlingly in the sun.

Like Daiyu when she entered Jiafu, they also entered through the corner gate, and when they entered the second gate, Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, who were surrounded by a group of maids and wives, greeted them.

Mrs. Wang is dressed very old and dignified, but she can still see that she was a beauty when she was young.

Wang Xifeng is even more beautiful, Xue Baobao couldn't help but sigh when he saw it, he is really a hero in the fat powder team, which is even more rare in this feudal society.

Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Wang haven't seen each other for nearly 20 years, so they hugged their heads and cried, and Wang Xifeng also shed a lot of tears.

It was easy for the sisters to control their emotions, and Mrs. Xue called a few children to come to visit, and Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng both gave a gift and led them to meet Jia's mother.

At this time, it was close to noon, and Jia Mu was bustling there.

After a visit, Mother Jia rewarded Xue Pan with a set of four treasures in the study, Zhen Yinglian and Xue Baobao sisters each had a pair of gold bracelets, which was a very heavy gift.

Mrs. Xue also gave gifts to the juniors of the Rongguo Mansion one by one, and Mother Jia smiled and pointed out that Jia Baoyu, Sanchun and Daiyu recognized the brothers and sisters of the Xue family.

At this time, Jia Baoyu and the others were still eleven or twelve-year-old hairy children, all of them were carved in pink and jade, and they were very cute and cute.

Among them, Lin Daiyu is obviously more beautiful than the Sanchun sisters, and even a few points more beautiful than Zhen Yinglian.

Xue Baobao doesn't remember the series of praises for Daiyu's appearance in the original book, but now that he sees the real person, he only feels that Daiyu's appearance and temperament are very similar to Lin Ruhai, which is a kind of unearthly beauty that cannot be kept in the world, so beautiful that it is very aura, and the kind of aura that can play a fairy without adding some dry ice at his feet.

As described in the original book, the Jia family kept them to live in Lixiangyuan, and Xue Baobao and a few people ate at Jia's mother's place, and they didn't mention it in Lixiangyuan that day.

Early the next morning, Xue Pan went to the Five Cities Terracotta Division to report, and Mrs. Xue took Zhen Yinglian and Xue Baobao to ask Jia's mother for peace.

Jia's mother gave breakfast, and after the meal, she instructed Jia Baoyu and a few people to lead Zhen Yinglian and Xue Baobao to play, so as not to be restrained.

They all took off their coats in the house, and as soon as they left Jia's mother's house, each of their maids waited to put on their coats.

Lin Daiyu was wearing a snow-white fox fur, which set off her aura of beauty more and more dusty.

It was the one that Xue Baobao Tuolin Ruhai brought to Lin Daiyu at the beginning.

Although the weather was cold at the beginning of February, it was not to the point of wearing a fox fur, but Lin Daiyu picked this unseasonal fox fur to wear, which shows her carefulness and her importance.

This character is very similar to Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai is a salt patrol imperial history, needless to say, he also knows that there are many affairs, but because of the fate with Xue Baobao, when the Xue family entered Beijing, he specially sent someone to send a generous gift, and also sent two guards to escort them all the way into Beijing, which is really rare.

Because of Lin Ruhai, because of the love and pity of the majority of Chinese for Sister Lin, and because of Lin Daiyu's crushing beauty, Xue Baobao already looked at Lin Daiyu differently.

At this time, he felt even more pity and pity, and pulled Lin Daiyu to talk about his trip to Yangzhou to see Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai came to the capital at the end of last year, but he came and went in a hurry, and only came to see Daiyu, and forced Jia's mother to move Lin Daiyu out of her yard on the grounds that she didn't dare to disturb Jia's mother, and she didn't have time to talk to Lin Daiyu in detail.

only told Lin Daiyu not to wronged herself in everything, and to write to him in case of trouble, to ask Jia's mother to be the master, and to ask Li Kun to be the master.

He strives to be transferred to the capital before the end of the year, and if he can't, he will also take her back to Yangzhou before the end of the year.

also mentioned Xue Baobao, saying that she would come to the Rongguo Mansion soon, so that Daiyu could get closer to this sister.

Lin Daiyu already had a very good impression of this sister Bao who had just met because of her father's words, and when she heard Xue Baobao talk about her father's affairs in Yangzhou, she was naturally very willing to listen, and asked for details again and again, and the two chatted very well.

Over there, Jia Baoyu was obviously very curious about Zhen Yinglian and Xue Baobao, but Xue Baobao only cared about talking to Lin Daiyu and didn't pay attention to him at all.

He had no choice but to surround Zhen Yinglian to ask about the situation in Jinling, ask about the situation on the road, and sighed, "It's really a good place in the south of the Yangtze River, and the two sisters are so beautiful."

Sister Bao is as her surname, she is actually a beauty made of snow, and Sister Zhen has a cinnabar mole between her eyebrows, which is even more popular in the world-".

Before he finished praising it, he heard someone shout, "My cousin is also twelve years old, even if he hasn't read a book, he should know etiquette, righteousness and shame!"

In front of my sister and me, they talked about our appearance so frivolously, and my sister and I would never be so insulted even if we were from humble backgrounds! ”

Xue Baobao doesn't think about any golden and jade good fate, and he doesn't want to be a third party and a light bulb between Bao Dai, and he is worried about how to draw a line with Jia Baoyu, it is best not to get along with each other, and when he heard Jia Baoyu's words, Yi immediately turned his face, and scolded mercilessly when he caught the opportunity.

Jia Baoyu was stunned, he was sincere, and at this time, he also sincerely praised Zhen Yinglian and Xue Baobao, and he did not have a frivolous and obscene heart, but Xue Baobao was so angry, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

However, Tanchun reacted quickly, hurriedly pulled Xue Baobao's sleeve, and said with a smile, "Sister Bao, the second brother is such a demented character, but he didn't deliberately insult my sister and Sister Zhen."

The second brother came to make amends to his sister, and my sister spared the second brother this time, right? ”

Xue Baobao sneered, "That's the character?" The son of the dignified Guogong Mansion is like this? Such a character?

Even if the third girl is telling a joke, it's good to pick up something nice to say."

Tanchun was so anxious to push Jia Baoyu, "Second brother, you should make amends to Sister Bao and Sister Zhen!" ”

Jia Baoyu has always been a person who can be a small low, and he is busy leaning over.

Xue Baobao only sneered again and again, and pulled Zhen Yinglian away.

Tanchun paused, "Second brother, how many times have you been told, you are getting older now, and you should be respectful when you see your sisters."

Look at it now, Sister Bao has offended you as soon as she arrived at our house! ”

Jia Baoyu was anxious when she heard this, so she raised her feet and went to chase, "I'll go and ask Sister Bao for guilt."

"Hey, don't worry, don't alarm the old lady and the lady."

Tanchun shouted and chased Jia Baoyu away.

Lin Daiyu pinched the handkerchief and watched the backs of several people disappear into the flowers, and muttered to herself, "The second brother spoke like that, it turned out to be disrespectful, so that Sister Bao felt that she and Sister Zhen were insulted?" ”

As soon as the second brother met, he said that he frowned, and he also gave himself a word, is it also disrespectful? Are you insulting yourself?

Yingchun heard it, his eyebrows moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

Xichun was still young, and she didn't understand why her brothers and sisters suddenly quarreled, and she was a little scared and snuggled into the nurse's arms.

Daiyu pulled the veil and thought for a while, but she was still not at ease in the end, so she followed.

Xue Baobao took Zhen Yinglian and ran back to Jia's mother's room, and after seeing the ceremony, she sat down on the small pestle beside Mrs. Xue.

Mrs. Xue saw that her expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked what was wrong, but Xue Baobao only said that she was tired and went into the house to sit for a while.

Mrs. Xue knew that this was definitely not the case, and after saying a few more words, she got up to say goodbye, and she was in a hurry to go back and ask her daughter if she was being bullied.

Jia Baoyu followed Xue Baobao and the two in, and saw that Xue Baobao did not mention the quarrel between the two just now, and he didn't dare to say it, for fear of making Xue Baobao angry again.

At this time, seeing that Mrs. Xue was about to take Xue Baobao away, and was about to speak, Tanchun, who came closely, hurriedly pulled his sleeve and said in a low voice, "Sister Bao lives in our house, don't worry."

If you shout at this time, it will annoy the old lady, and maybe Sister Bao will be even more annoyed."

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he really didn't dare to speak, so he just stood in a sneer.

Mother Jia has always known his temperament, and knew that he was probably having a quarrel with Xue Baobao's sisters, so she smiled and ordered Mrs. Wang to send Xue Baobao's mother and daughter out.

asked Jia Baoyu why he provoked Sister Xue Baobao, Jia Baoyu said truthfully, and said, "Ancestor, you help me intercede with Sister Bao, I don't mean to Sister Tang Tubao and Sister Zhen."

It's just that when I saw the two sisters with beautiful appearances, I was ashamed of myself, and I couldn't help but praise a few words."

Mother Jia didn't put the quarrels of a few children into her heart at all, and smiled and diluted the mud, "Don't worry, your sister Bao is dignified and polite, and she will definitely not really annoy you."

Only you have to remember the lesson of this time, you are not young now, even if you are your own sister, you can't be so presumptuous and disrespectful! ”

As soon as Lin Daiyu arrived outside the door, she heard Jia's mother's words, and couldn't help frowning, even the old lady said that it was disrespectful for the second brother to talk like that.

Then why did no one stop the second brother from saying such things to himself on weekdays, not even the old lady.

Is it because he is closer to his second brother, or is he sending someone under the fence, and he can't be respected?

Lin Daiyu has always been thoughtful, sensitive and suspicious, thinking of this, she can't help but hurt herself, her mother left early, and her father can't be around.

Although the old lady loves her, the old lady is old and has many grandchildren around her, where can she take care of her granddaughter from time to time?

On weekdays, thanks to the second brother who treats her as his own sister, he thinks about everything thoughtfully, which can comfort her away from home and her father's sorrow.

I didn't expect that the words and deeds of the second brother were disrespectful, and it was a word that could make the dignified and gentle sister immediately change color and reprimand.

No wonder my father came to the capital, and he didn't even have time to say a few more words to himself, but he desperately made the old lady angry, and insisted on moving himself out of the old lady's yard, and begged the eldest sister-in-law to take care of him.

Father is not afraid of the old lady's tiredness at all, but he also thinks that the second brother's words and deeds are frivolous, and it is even more inappropriate to live in the old lady's yard with him!

It's just a pity that she doesn't have a mother to teach, and none of the uncles and cousins in Jiafu reminded her!

Now those people don't know how to choreograph her!

I'm afraid they are all scolding her for not knowing etiquette, having no tutor, being frivolous and disrespectful!

When Lin Daiyu thought of this, tears had already flowed all over her face, and she didn't go in, so she turned around and left.

Zijuan, the eldest girl who was serving her, suddenly cried again for some reason, looked inside the door, and looked at Lin Daiyu who wiped her tears while walking, so she had to chase Lin Daiyu away.
