The Red Chamber: Daiyu's eldest sister is not easy to be

Chapter 130 The Grand Banquet of the Sun Family
Seeing her like this, Aunt Xue couldn't help crying: "How long will you have to wait? You have a few years to wait. If nothing happens in the end, what will you do with the rest of your life?

The money is gone, our Xue family can still make money, but how do we turn back the time, do you want to go to Guanli to be that aunt? "

Xue Baochai didn't look at her when she heard her cry, and stared blankly at the roof of the tent, and said in a very firm tone: "Being an aunt is better than marrying into the Jia family. The Jia family is already rotten. Even if I marry in, I will just rot and stink with them.

One hundred steps, I have already walked 99 steps, it is impossible to give up because of failure in this step, Mom, please stop persuading me, it is impossible for me to marry Baoyu. "

How could Aunt Xue not know that Baoyu is not a good man, but the Jia family is the best choice for them now, if she had no choice, she would not want Baochai to marry him.

She opened her mouth and wanted to persuade her again, but seeing Baochai's stubborn appearance, she couldn't persuade her anymore, so she sighed, got up and went back to the room to cry.

Seeing her leave, the tears in Xue Baochai's eyes could not help but slowly slipped down and flowed into the already wet hair.

Since her father passed away, she has been holding on. Her brother is useless, and her mother is not a troublemaker. Apart from suppressing the panic in her heart to support her, she has no other choice at all. Otherwise, she would not have Agree with my mother's proposal to live in Jia's house.

She thought that she had found a new way out, that she could get rid of that greedy aunt, and that she no longer needed to curry favor with Jia Baoyu, that idiot at Jia's house, but reality dealt her another painful blow.

Why is it so difficult to enter a palace?
Could it be that if there is no support behind him, it is really impossible to survive in this capital?

Why can't she have a sister who supports her like Daiyu?

Daiyu! ! !

By the way, she can't go the way of the Jia family, but she can still go the way of the Lin family!
If she hadn't reminded her before, she wouldn't have thought of moving out, let alone find other ways to enter the palace. Since she could remind her once, there might be other ways.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly wiped the tears off her face with her hand, and called Yinger, the servant girl, and said, "Go and tell the housekeeper to send invitations to the two girls of the Lin family, and just say girl, I invite her to come." Enjoy the flowers."

After hearing this, Ying'er hesitated for a while, and asked aloud, "Are you only sending posts to the two girls of the Lin family? What about the Jia family?"

After she reminded her, Baochai realized that it was not right to invite only two people for the first time after moving, so she hurriedly added: "Send a post to Yingchun and the others, just say I haven't seen you for a long time." I miss them so much, I specially invite them to enjoy the flowers together.”

Ying'er heard the words, and then went out in response, and asked the housekeeper to send someone to deliver the post.

After Aunt Xue knew about this, she was silent for a long time, and she just ordered people to go out and buy some new gadgets, and after she had prepared all the things for guests, she didn't care about it anymore.

Since Baochai doesn't want to give up the matter of entering the palace, and wants to fight again, then let her do as she pleases, if it really doesn't work, let's talk about other things.

The invitations from the Xue family were sent to the Jia family early the next morning. In order to show their importance, the invitations to the sisters of the Lin family were not sent directly to the members of the Jia family. .

People are willing to save face, so Mother Lin is naturally willing to make it easier for them to wait for a while, and then go in with the post to ask Jiu Si for instructions.

In the past few days, Jiusi and the others have received a lot of invitations, most of them are the family members of those officials, and there are also some people with malicious intentions, but they didn't expect there to be an invitation from Xue Baochai.

Jiusi took the post and looked at it, and saw that the above content indeed invited their sisters to enjoy the flowers in two days, so she asked in surprise: "Why did she remember to send us the post, she is not busy entering the palace ?"

San Yue reminded with a smile: "Girl, you forgot, this year's general election has been postponed to next year, and her plan will naturally come to nothing."

Daiyu recalled that Baochai first came to Beijing for the small election, so she couldn't help asking curiously: "If the general election fails, isn't there still a small election?"

At this time, Jiusi had already reacted, and after hearing the words, he explained to her: "Although the Xue family is down and out, they are also from the imperial merchants, and they are constantly involved with other families, so this relationship has become irrelevant. No, that is also related, and does not meet the requirements of this small election.

However, the invitation came so suddenly that she might be asking for something. "

Presumably, it should be related to the matter of entering the palace, but somehow I found her, do they know each other that well?

After Daiyu heard this, she nodded and said, "Oh, so that's the case. Then sister, shall we go?"

Jiusi didn't reply to her, but asked Mother Lin: "You said that the person who sent the post was accompanied by the servants of Jia's family?"

Nanny Lin nodded and said, "If you go back to the girl, it's the people around Mrs. Wang."

After hearing this, Jiusi thought for a moment before saying: "That means she invited not only the two of us, but also Yingchun and the others.

Yingchun and the others have a good relationship with her, and they haven't seen each other for a long time. She sent a post to invite them to enjoy the flowers, and they will definitely go.

A few of them have gone, if we don't go, it will inevitably cause people to gossip, if that's the case, then let's go! "

Afterwards, he handed the post back to Nanny Lin: "Tell them, our sisters have agreed to this matter, and we will definitely come to bother you when the time comes."

Seeing that she agreed, Daiyu didn't say anything, picked up the book and started to read again.

Nanny Lin took the invitation and responded, then went out and returned to the person. Then, after recording the matter according to the rules, she looked through the invitations from other families.

However, what came earlier than the Xue family's flower appreciation banquet was the literary friendship banquet held by the grandson of the first-rank family member.

It is said that the reason why the other party sent them posts was because they heard about the reputation of their Gusu Lin family and came here to ask for advice. As for whether it was true or not, they didn't know.

But judging from the news from Jiu Si De, I'm afraid it's a lie to make friends with literature, but it's true to be weak and tempted.

Originally, the two of them didn't plan to go, but on the day the post was sent, the news that they were going spread all over the capital, making it impossible for them to think about it.

If the matter hadn't spread, no one would have said anything if they didn't go, but the matter had already spread, and if they didn't go, they would become the daughters of a first-rank official, and what would happen at that time.

So, on the second day after the Xue family's invitation was delivered, the two sisters dressed up and took the maid to the Sun's residence for the banquet.

When the two of them arrived in front of the Sun Mansion, many carriages had already parked there, and there were quite a few young masters and servants accompanying them, presumably they all came to the banquet today.

Daiyu lifted the curtain and took a look, and saw that there were people chatting and carriages outside. It was very noisy, and she put it down again if she thought it was noisy.

She frowned unhappily: "Sister, there are too many people here. If they are all against us, I'm afraid it will be troublesome to deal with."

　I am completely speechless about the weather this year. Yesterday I was sweating in short sleeves, and today I was so cold that I wanted to wear a jacket. How could I not get sick on such a day!
