The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 215
What made everyone fall into silence was that Mrs. Wang actually said in front of everyone that she planned to hold Xue Baochai in her hand and then make Jia Baoyun a concubine.

Reminiscent of Xue Baochai's hasty marriage to Wuhou Mansion as a concubine.

Everyone's expressions couldn't help but change.

As soon as Mrs. Wang said this, how could people not think too much?
Aunt Xue's complexion in the back had already turned black like the bottom of a pot, and the complexions of Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai were also extremely ugly.

After all, Xue Baochai is now Jia Jing's concubine!

Up to now, no matter whether Mrs. Wang did it on purpose or not, in short, she has completely offended the entire Marquis Zhaowu Mansion and Aunt Xue!

……

After listening to Xue Yan's narration, Jia Jing's expression was also extremely ugly, gloomy as if water was about to drip.

Jia Jing glanced around, but she did not see Mrs. Wang.

Suddenly, an inexplicable heavy pressure enveloped everyone, making everyone feel heavy in their hearts.

Seeing that Jia Jing's complexion was really ugly, Mother Jia hurried over to smooth things over after rewarding the actors, "Brother Jing, sit down first, I've scolded my old lady, this time it's really shameful! It's all caused by drinking too much, Brother Jing, you should be more patient..."

"be magnanimous?"

Jia Jing looked at Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai who bowed their heads silently, and they were no longer in the mood to go to the banquet.

So, bowing to Jia's mother, Jia Jing got up and said goodbye: "Old lady, grandson won't sit here anymore, I still have some urgent matters to deal with in my house, so I will go back first!"

After finishing speaking, he said to Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai, "You all go back with me."

When Daiyu and Baochai heard the words, they both stood up obediently and followed behind Jia Jing.

Then, Jia Jing said to Aunt Xue: "Aunt Xue, come with me too, Xue Pan has some news, please let me convey it to you!"

Hearing the news about Xue Pan, coupled with the previous embarrassment, Aunt Xue got up in a hurry, and after a hasty confession to Jia's mother, she went with Jia Jing.

So, Jia Jing and his party took their maids and went back to Wuhou Mansion in such a mighty way.

The rest of the people couldn't help but looked at each other, and then they all lowered their heads and remained silent amid Jia Mu's extremely ugly expression.

…………

On the way back to Wuhou Mansion.

For the first time, Jia Jing did not ride a horse, but accompanied Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai in the green curtained carriage.

After leaving the Grand View Garden, Lin Daiyu was obviously in a much better mood, while Xue Baochai kept her head down with a sullen look on her face.

Seeing this, Jia Jing comforted: "You don't have to take things to heart, it's all over, isn't it?"

Hearing these words, Xue Baochai finally raised her head, her eyes were a little red, and she asked, "Third brother, do you think that I came to our house because I saw no way out?"

Only then did Jia Jing realize that Xue Baochai was sad and depressed for this reason, so she immediately laughed.

"I still don't know what's going on!"

Reaching out to wipe away the two drops of crystals that fell from Xue Baochai's eyes, Jia Jing's face was full of smiles, "You, you just think too much, but I have never thought about it like this before!"

After all, Jia Jing took the hands of the two of them, and said: "I treat you two, it's too late for the pain!"

In a word, how can Xue Baochai care about being sad?

Only the blushing like Lin Daiyu was left.

……

Wuhou Mansion.

Jia Jing first asked Amber to arrange the kitchen to set up a banquet quickly, and to entertain Aunt Xue later.

Then, Aunt Xue was invited to take a seat in the main hall.

Aunt Xue naturally refused again and again, she came here today as Baochai's mother, how could she be willing to sit down in the main hall?
Seeing this, Jia Jing said with a smile: "This is not the Rongguo Mansion next door. There are so many rules. Now in our own mansion, I can do whatever I say. Don't be too restrained, Aunt Xue!"

Xue Baochai also began to persuade: "Third brother is right, mother can just sit down! In our own house, there is no need to be too restrained!"

Lin Daiyu also persuaded, "Aunt Xue just sit down, it's okay!"

Seeing how the three of them were at home and how they addressed each other casually, Aunt Xue realized at this time that the daily things that Xue Baochai said every time she went home were not fabricated... …

In Aunt Xue's cognition, it seems that Xue Baochai can get such status and respect in the family as a concubine, which is really unimaginable!
Immediately, Aunt Xue sighed with a smile: "It is Baochai's blessing to be able to serve as a concubine for Brother Jing!

Now that I have seen Baochai live so well with my own eyes, as a mother, I am completely relieved! "

After that, when Jia Jing invited her again, Aunt Xue finally sat down graciously.

……

Not long after the four of them were seated, Hu Po led a few maidservants and brought out plates of dishes.

Jia Jing smiled and said: "In a hurry, the food is not as luxurious as next door, Aunt Xue must forgive me!"

"As long as you can eat happily at home, you won't change it even for a table of delicacies!" Aunt Xue said with a smile: "When eating at home, the most important thing is to eat comfortably!"

When Jia Jing and Daiyu Baochai heard the words, they all laughed too...

Full of wine and food.

While everyone was sitting idle, the maids served hot tea.

Jia Jing said: "Actually, I asked Aunt Xue to come here today, and there is really news about Brother Xue..."

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve pocket.

Handing the letter to Aunt Xue, Jia Jing continued: "Brother Xue has been walking on the grassland recently, and the harvest has indeed been quite fruitful. He asked me to tell Baochai and Auntie that there is no need to worry about him. When the autumn harvest comes, he will almost Just come back!"

Aunt Xue looked at the letter in her hand, tears immediately fell down.

"This bastard has grown up now! Finally, his sister and I don't have to worry about him all day long!"

In a word, Xue Baochai's eye sockets couldn't help turning red...

…………

In the blink of an eye, another ten days have passed

On this day, Jia Jing rested at home.

While reading a book in the study, suddenly a servant came to report, "Master Hou, Second Master Lian is here!"

"Quickly invite Second Master Lian to come in!"

"Yes!"

a while.

Jia Lian was led over by a maid.

Seeing Jia Lian coming in, Jia Jing put down the book in his hand and said with a smile, "By the way, how did Second Brother Lian come to my place today? You are a rare guest in the house!!"

Sitting on the big chair, Jia Lian smiled embarrassedly when she heard Jia Jing's words.

After that, he opened his mouth again and again, full of words, but he didn't know where to start.

Seeing this, Jia Jing said with a smile: "Looking at the appearance of Lian's second brother, I really have something to ask me today, but I don't think it's easy to speak. Am I right or not?"

When Jia Lian heard this, she nodded with a wry smile.

After hesitating for a while, he said slowly: "It is true that I was also entrusted with this matter, so after I tell you, don't be angry, Third Brother Jing!"

Seeing that Jia Lian was still laying the groundwork there, Jia Jing frowned slightly, "Whether you are angry or not, I have to tell my brother Lian what happened first, so I can know, right?"

Hearing this, Jia Lian gritted his teeth and asked, "Someone asked me to speak, and wanted to marry the second lady of our family!"

"Someone wants to marry Second Miss?"

Jia Jing was taken aback for a moment, then frowned again and asked, "Who is that person?"

　The second one is before 2:[-] noon, I have to go to the hospital in the morning, sorry!
