Chapter 29 Xue Baochai persuades his mother

After hearing what her daughter said, Aunt Xue also understood, and said embarrassingly, "I was wrong."

Then he said, "I have to thank Lian'er, we will prepare a generous gift for him and Feng girl later."

Xue Pan and Xue Baochai nodded in agreement.

Aunt Xue let go of her worries, looked at her son in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Pan'er, you have been busy all afternoon, go and have a rest, I will let Xiangling stew ginseng for you later."

Hearing Xiangling, Xue Pan was shocked, and hurriedly stopped his mother, and hurriedly told him about being tricked by Jia Yucun.

Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai were shocked when they heard this, and they didn't feel relieved until they heard that Mu Xu would settle the matter.

Aunt Xue scolded, "This Jia Yucun is really not a thing? Your uncle and uncle must not let him go lightly."

But Xue Baochai thought about it a little bit more, first she ordered her girl Yinger to guard the door.

Then he said to Aunt Xue, "Mom, I don't think Jia Yucun is alone in this matter. Think about it, if something happens to my brother, can our mother and daughter keep our family's wealth?"

Aunt Xue turned pale and stammered, "You said, this is impossible, right? He, he is my brother after all?"

Xue Baochai smiled wryly, "Mom, I also hope that I am wrong, but think about it, can Jia Yucun not tell uncle about such a big matter?"

"Think about it again, since you came to Beijing, how does your uncle's family treat our family?"

Aunt Xue thought about it. When she visited her elder brother's house, her brother and sister-in-law's lukewarm attitude towards her made her feel cold, and she said hoarsely after a while, "Do you think your aunt knows?"

Xue Baochai looked at her mother's hopeful eyes, and said cruelly, "I don't think it doesn't matter whether my aunt knows or not. Since we moved into Jia's house, my aunt asked you how much money you borrowed?"

Xue Pan was listening, and couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted to ask for clarification.

It took Xue Baochai a lot of effort to persuade her, but seeing that her mother was silent, she still asked, "Mom, tell the truth, how much money did you borrow from your aunt?"

Seeing the eyes of her son and daughter looking at her, Aunt Xue smiled wryly, "In the past year, it's almost [-] taels."

Hearing that his mother borrowed so much money to go out, Xue Pan paused and said, "Mom, you are still talking about me, look at you..."

Xue Baochai patted Xue Pan's arm, motioned him to stop talking, and then asked, "Did Auntie give you an IOU?"

Aunt Xue shook her head, Xue Baochai didn't know what to say, and said after a while, "I'm afraid the money will never come back."

Aunt Xue said anxiously, "Your aunt promised me to let Baoyu marry you in the future, so I promised her. She can't keep her words."

Before Xue Baochai could speak, Xue Pan said, "No, I don't agree, even Baoyu's embroidered pillow wants to marry my sister."

Seeing what her son said, Aunt Xue also said angrily, "What do you know, your aunt said that Baoyu will inherit Rongguo Mansion in the future, and the entire Rongfu Mansion will belong to Baoyu."

Not wanting to hear this, Xue Pan sneered, "Auntie is thinking about beautiful things, she also doesn't think about the fact that Lian's second brother is here?"

Aunt Xue was still dissatisfied, "Your aunt said that the old lady is there, so it's not a problem."

"Mom, what brother said is right. Don't forget, the title belongs to the Eldest Man. If he has a son, he doesn't pass it on to his nephew in the next room. Besides, the imperial court has the final say on who the title is passed on to."

"At that time, the old man is not willing, what else can the old lady do?" Xue Baochai also agreed with her brother's words. Seeing that her mother still didn't quite believe it, she explained,

"Even if the aunt and the old lady had a solution, they can't do it now. Don't you forget that Lian's second brother is now working with the prince of Dongping?"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Xue was also dumbfounded, and said after a while, "Then what should I do, I'll go get the money back?"

Xue Baochai shook her head and said, "Mom can try it, but I don't think my aunt will pay it back."

Then he looked at Xue Pan, "Brother, you have time to clean up our house in Beijing."

Xue Pan nodded, "I have long wanted to live in our own house, why should I suffer here?"

Seeing that Aunt Xue was a bit reluctant, Xue Baochai persuaded,
"In the future, my brother will work in the Embroidery Guard, and he will always socialize with others. It's always bad to live in someone else's house."

"Besides, if you can get back the money you lent to Auntie, Mom, it's fine for us to continue living here. I'm afraid Auntie has no intention of paying it back at all."

Hearing what her daughter said, Aunt Xue had no choice but to agree.Then the mother and son discussed it and decided to move back to their own house when they found a chance.

Then Xue Pan talked about Xiangling again, and they heard that Mu Xu meant it, so they didn't dare to be negligent. In the end, they could only plan to keep Xiangling in their own house, and then they would talk about what to do after asking Mu Xu what he meant.

Besides, on Mu Xu's side, after returning to the mansion from the yamen, he first went to talk to his grandmother and mother for a while.

When he left his mother, Princess Changning told him not to forget to pick up Lin Daiyu tomorrow, Mu Xu replied that he would never forget.

Going back to his own yard, he asked Mei Jian, "I'm not at the house, what's the matter?"

Mei Jian replied, "Not long after the son left, Prince Zhongjing sent someone to tell the son not to forget the horse he gave him."

When Mu Xu heard this, he patted his forehead, "There are so many things going on these days, I forgot about it."

Thinking of the promise he had promised to send Tu Yinger's horse, he immediately said,
"You send someone to call Yang An to see me."

After freshening up and coming to the study, Yang An was already waiting at the door.

He said directly, "You send someone to take the snow-riding black horse I brought back from Liaodong to Prince Zhongjing's mansion for his son."

"And pick another docile pony, and bring it along with them, and give it to their princess."

After Yang An left, Mu Xu was in the study again, thinking about rebuilding the embroidered clothes guard, and had a plan in mind.Seeing that it was almost time, I got up and went to my grandmother's house to accompany the old man for dinner, and then I went to bed early.

The next day, Mu Xu got up early, and naturally practiced the body training formula unshakably first, and then asked Mei Jian and others to wait on him and change his clothes.

According to the usual practice, I went to greet my grandmother and went to my mother's place.

When my mother arrived, Princess Changning was having breakfast with Hongxiu and a few little girls waiting for her. Mu Xu had eaten at her grandmother's, so she naturally rejected her mother's idea of ​​letting him eat more.

After my mother finished her meal, she rinsed her mouth again under the service of Hong Xiu.Mu Xu stepped forward, "Mother, I'm going to Rongguo Mansion to pick up the younger sister of the Lin family, what else can mother order?"

Princess Changning thought for a moment and said no.But I still asked Hongxiu, "I asked you to order
The servants cleaned up a yard, but it was done. "

Hong Xiu replied, "The Qingyi Courtyard has been cleaned up, and all the supplies are new."

Princess Changning nodded, and smiled at Mu Xu, "Don't worry now, everything has been arranged, you can go pick him up yourself."

Mu Xu rolled his eyes and complained, "What care do I have, why does mother always make such jokes?"

Princess Changning ignored her son's mischief, and waved her hand, "Okay, mother is joking with you. Hurry up, I'm anxious to see Miss Lin."

Mu Xu saluted helplessly, then turned around and prepared not to mention it.

Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall.

Jia's mother was also asking Zijuan who was beside Lin Daiyu, "Have you brought the clothes and accessories that your girls are used to?"

Zijuan replied, "Last night, Xueyan and I packed up the things that the girl is going to bring."

Mother Jia nodded in satisfaction, seeing Lin Daiyu's timid expression.Busily pulled her to his side, comforted her,
"Don't be afraid. Before Min'er came out of the cabinet, she had the best friendship with Princess Changning who was not Princess Dongping at that time. Now that she is picking you up, she must want to meet you."

Before Lin Daiyu could reply, Jia Baoyu started to make a fuss, "According to me, sister Lin should not go to the Laoshizi Palace, since we won't be at home there, and there is no one to play with my sister."

After finishing speaking, she didn't give up, and went forward to beg Jiamu, "Old lady, please leave my sister behind."

When Jia's mother saw her, she quickly let go of Lin Daiyu, hugged Jia Baoyu in her arms, and comforted her.

"Your sister is only going to stay for a few days. Then you will miss your sister. I'll ask Lian'er to pick your sister up."
