Xue Baobao eased his tone and persuaded, "I know that my mother is for my good, although our family is not short of money, in the end I have a lower background, if it weren't for this kind of kinship with my aunt, I would never be able to climb the son of the Guogong Mansion."

Mrs. Xue was even more sad when she heard this, "You know, you are still like this, you want me to die!" ”

Xue Baobao sneered, "The son of the Guogong Mansion, it sounds good, when the old lady is gone, it is the second master Lian who inherits the title of the Guogong Mansion!"

My uncle is just a fifth-grade official, and my cousin Baoyu doesn't like to study, so what can he do when the time comes? ”

"What do you know? Your cousin Baoyu was born with a jade, and he has great creation! ”

Xue Baobao was simply shocked by the three words "Great Creation", and sorted out his mood before saying, "It is said that since childhood, Uncle Lin was a show when he was as old as him, but he only knew that he was in the middle of sisters and maids, what can he do in the future?"

Besides, it's not a business to catch up, listen to what your aunt said today, you basically treat me as Baoyu's cousin's maid!

They already look down on us so much, if we catch up and stutter again, won't it be even more despised?

Even if I marry into the Guogong Mansion as my wife wishes, how can I gain a foothold? ”

Mrs. Xue only said, "No matter how smart you are, what can you understand?" This family business was discussed by your father when he was there, and your uncle also said that it was better than your idea! ”

Xue Baobao, "......"

It turns out that there is still this reason, no wonder in the original book, Mrs. Xue has been holding on to Rongguo Mansion and Jinyu Liangyuan.

Xue Baobao saw that it didn't make sense here, so he changed directions, "Even if that's the case, we don't have to stay in the house every day!"

My brother is not as good as before, and he is also a person with a serious official position, and he is on the same level as his uncle!

Always send people under the fence like this, don't tell people jokes, those gentlemen in Jiafu are staring at my brother every day! ”

Mrs. Xue's expression moved slightly, in addition to Xue Baobao's relatives, this matter can be regarded as another knot in her heart.

Xue Baobao saw that there was a play, and hurriedly said, "The martial arts arena that my brother said he wanted has already been built, but it is just right to take advantage of his freshness to move over, so that he can learn more skills."

It's not easy for my brother to walk on the right path, my mother always has to push it behind, what's the point of dragging his feet like this? ”

Mrs. Xue snorted, "Don't look at me, I don't know, you're just using your brother's business to move away!" ”

Xue Baobao admitted calmly, "Mom just said that I was reasonable? Besides, my cousin Baoyu and I are still young, even if my mother lives in Rongguo Mansion every day, or even lives in my aunt's Rongxi Hall, my aunt will be able to loosen up my relationship with my cousin Baoyu?

It's better to slow down for a while, I'm still young, and wait for two or three years to explore my aunt's mind.

If it is successful, it is natural to congratulate my wife on fulfilling her wishes.

If it doesn't work out, it's better to think of other ways than to live here without knowing anything now.

After a long time, if one day someone can see my mother's mind, it will inevitably damage my reputation, and if it fails, won't it affect my future?

Besides, my mother knows that my brother will not be able to make a profit in the future, and she will not have to wait for three or five years, but my aunt is begging us to get married."

Xue Baobao's last sentence simply reached Mrs. Xue's heart, although Xue Pan was not successful, it was very good in Mrs. Xue's eyes.

She was already convinced in her heart, but she refused to admit it, and said, "The girl's family, who is full of family affairs, is not ashamed!" ”

Xue Baobao saw that she was loose, and he was even more energetic, and said with a grin, "The so-called one person is short, two people are long, although my future is worried about my wife, wouldn't it be better for me to worry about it with my wife?" ”

Now, there are more than 30 candidates for your son-in-law on the Zhuangzi outside Jinling!

"Besides, my brother's future at the beginning, isn't it also that my wife and I are worried about, my wife thinks, isn't my brother a hundred times better now than before?"

Mrs. Xue thought about it, and sure enough, during this time, she had been glad that her daughter had far-reaching vision, and she stood up with Pan'er.

In Pan'er's matter, Sister Bao can see far and right, and most of her relatives will not make a big mistake.

Mrs. Xue became more and more shaken, first Lord Xue and Wang Ziteng had already planned a future for Xue Baobao, and sent them to the palace to be selected first, if they were selected, they happened to help each other with Yuanchun in the palace.

If you don't choose, you will choose a good relationship and marry into the national government.

She has always admired her husband and brother the most, and she thinks that such a plan is no better.

Even now, she didn't give up the family affair of Jinyu Liangyuan, but she felt that what Xue Baobao said was also reasonable, and it didn't hurt to slow down, and it didn't cold the hearts of her children, so she said, "Anyway, I want to get back from Sister Lin's golden lock first, and then I will talk about it later!" ”

Xue Baobao grinned and flipped out the golden lock in his collar, "It's not here, I just coaxed my wife."

Mrs. Xue couldn't help but scold, and the mother and daughter gossiped again, and each slept without mentioning it.

……

……

The next day coincided with Xue Pan's rest, and Xue Baobao sent him to inquire about where there were more books and better books, and then buy some famous pastries and candies in Beijing.

She herself took the opportunity to ask her husband for leave, after all, she wanted to entertain Sister Lin for dinner, didn't she?

I didn't want her to prepare the meal, Lin Daiyu also came to Lixiangyuan after school, but Xue Pan didn't come back for a long time.

Xue Baobao was about to send someone to find him, but Master Wu sent the little servant back to say that Xue Pan was stopped by Jia Rong and Jia Qiang, saying that he wanted Xue Pan to invite them to drink.

Xue Baobao, "......"

Catch up with Ming'er, she must invite Jia Rong and Jia Qiang to dinner, this is definitely a divine assist!

Sure enough, Mrs. Xue became anxious when she heard this, and scolded, "Are those two masters of Jiafu eyeing us Pan'er or what?" If they are short of money, they will go to work as errands to earn money, what is the idea of always beating Pan'er? ”

The little guy said, "The two masters of Jiafu have blocked the uncle several times before, but the uncle has hidden, and he doesn't want to be caught by the two masters on the street today, so he pushed the uncle into the restaurant."

The uncle is soft-skinned, and he promised to invite the two masters of Jiafu to drink, but he had to go, before the little one came, he also heard the uncle say in a loud voice, please drink, but he himself is absolutely not drinking, and the two masters of Jiafu should be."

Xue Baobao smiled with satisfaction, it seems that the last time a hard pour worked!

"Now they want to coax your uncle to go, naturally say what they should say, and when it comes to the real food, they will naturally have something to say.

Pity my Pan'er with a soft face and a solid heart, where can I stop those two masters! ”

Xue Baobao said with a smile, "If my mother is worried and sends someone to call my brother back, she will say that there is really something at home, and the wine money will be paid, but my brother can't accompany me."

When Mrs. Xue heard the reason, she hurriedly ordered the little maid to go.

About half an hour later, Xue Pan came back, and sure enough, he had already been drunk by Jia Rong and the others.

Because the little guy shouted in time, he didn't drink much.

Mrs. Xue was relieved at this time, and ordered to divide the food for Xue Pan to eat in her house, and she took Xue Baobao and a few people to eat.

After the meal, Xue Baobao once again instigated Lin Daiyu to skip class, and said, "It's rare that my brother is at home today, I am going to ask my brother to take me out for a walk, buy some books and buy some food to play, Sister Zhen will also go, Sister Lin, you will also follow us?" ”

Lin Daiyu is still in her mother's filial piety, but she has long passed the hot filial piety, and it doesn't hurt to go out for a spin once in a while.

Lin Daiyu hesitated, Xue Baobao heaved, pulled her and left, "What are you afraid of, my mother will go too, the old lady will blame it, let my mother bear it."

Lin Daiyu saw her kindness, so she had to respond.

In ancient times, women had many rules, although they were going out to shop, Mrs. Xue would not allow them to really walk on the street, instructed the car, chose the kind of big and regular shop to go to a private room, and then instructed the female shopkeeper to take things for them to choose.

Lin Daiyu has been in poor health since she was a child, and she has hardly been out of the house, and after she arrived in the capital, she has never been out because she has to guard her mother's filial piety.

Zhen Yinglian was abducted by a kidnapper when she was a child because she went out to see the lights, let alone go out for a walk.

Therefore, even though it is such a regular and cumbersome walk, they are also full of interest.

Women, no matter how old they are, from ancient times to the present, there are only a few things they like, and they go to a jewelry store first.

Mrs. Xue saw her daughter chattering and laughing with the handkerchief in the boudoir, holding a hairpin bracelet and so on, and her son accompanied her in a regular manner, only to feel that her life's wish was satisfied.

I saw that a few girls picked the delicate but not expensive ones, and said with a smile, "You are young, it is most appropriate to choose this one, it looks coquettish, and it is not too ostentatious."

If you choose today, I will not ask your brother to bring out the money and pay the bills! ”

Xue Pan is now very sensitive to silver, and said nervously after hearing this, "Well, yes, even if I don't have enough, I still have more than a hundred taels of silver to pay my sisters."

His two hundred taels of flowers were blackmailed by Jia Rong and Jia Qiang today, and there are more than 100 taels left.

All the girls laughed, and Lin Daiyu said with a smile, "I remember what Auntie said, although we are young now, we will be old one day, and we will inevitably drag my aunt to visit the shop again."

Aunt Xue smiled from ear to ear, "Then I don't care, I don't want a few of you to be sisters, and you will pray for Buddha every day, and bless your brother to be promoted to the rank of chief, and you can afford to pay the bill when the time comes!" ”

Lin Daiyu and Zhen Yinglian both covered their lips and looked at Xue Pan eating and laughing, although Xue Pan was messing around outside, he couldn't cope with such a scene, and his face was red with embarrassment.

Xue Baobao was afraid that if he continued to talk about it, he would expose his true nature, so he hurriedly changed the topic, "Come on, let's pick quickly, our wife has spoken today, and my brother has made a promise, we will return with a full load!" ”

The three girls picked out the jewelry, and Mrs. Xue took them to the cloth village and snack shop, Xue Baobao begged, "Mom, we still want to go to the bookstore for a turn, this time we don't want to enter the private room, we have to go shopping and find it ourselves, in order to find the one we like, left and right Mom and brother accompanied, we promise to wear hats obediently, and we will never be rude."
