Gourmet Red Chamber: A Chronicle of Baochai's Rebirth
Chapter 48 The Poppy's Condescension
Chapter 48 The Poppy's Condescension
Mrs. Xue subconsciously looked at Xue Baobao, and Xue Baobao gave her a meaningful smile, then turned to ask Jia Baoyu, "Cousin Baoyu, I just discussed with Sister Lin and the others to play with sandbags and draw flowers, will you go too?"
Xue Baobao originally smiled at Mrs. Xue, but when he turned to look at Jia Baoyu, the smile on his face had not faded.
During these days, she tried her best to give Lin Daiyu food, so naturally she would not wrong herself.
She has grown taller, and she has lost a lot of her girlishness, and her snow-like skin has become more radiant. With such a smile, she is so charming and charming that there is no winner.
Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment, thinking, "I didn't expect Sister Bao to be so beautiful when she smiled. I only hate that she is usually dignified and serious, and she won't let me get close easily, otherwise I'll be worth it if I die..."
Lin Daiyu had not smiled since she got up in the morning. When she saw Jia Baoyu's stupid look, she became even more angry. She snorted heavily and turned away.
Xue Baobao shouted cheerfully, "Madam, we're going", pulling Tanchun with one hand and Xichun with the other, and quickly caught up with Lin Daiyu, Zhen Yinglian also smiled and led Yingchun to follow.
Jia Baoyu was stunned, and started to chase after him.
Xue Pan scratched his head and asked, "Mom, cousin Baoyu doesn't want me to accompany him, so why don't I go on a business trip? Those two loan sharks were still locked up yesterday!"
Xue Pan was a fool and told the truth, but Mrs. Xue felt sad. If the Rongguo Mansion hadn't been so powerful, how could she have asked her son to delay his mission to entertain Baoyu!
However, Baoyu is not rare, he just wants to drill around her daughters!
Wang Xifeng didn't sound like it, so she hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Brother Pan is really promising now, and it looks like he has official authority!
Come on, Brother Pan, come sit next to me and tell me who the loan sharks are, what trouble they got into, and why were they arrested by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division? "
Xue Pan was flattered, obediently sat down next to Wang Xifeng, and replied honestly, "It's not a big case, it turned out that two local ruffians gave loan sharks, and the debtor couldn't pay, so they tied up his daughter. go.
Those who owe the money are in a hurry, go to our place to file a complaint, and Shangfeng will go and ask me to bring someone to arrest those two people, there is no time for interrogation! "
Mrs. Xue hurriedly asked, "How is that daughter?"
"I found it and sent it back."
Xue Pan said with a proud smile, "If I hadn't found it, I wouldn't be able to go home yesterday, and I would have to track it down overnight."
Mrs. Xue recited the Buddha's name repeatedly, "That's how it should be. As officials, the most important thing is to be the master of the people. Human life is a matter of heaven, and you should work harder yourself."
Wang Xifeng asked again, "If it is verified, what will be the sentence?"
"They dared to put loan money at the emperor's feet, and they dared to kidnap the daughter of a good family. They will be punished for both crimes, at least they will be sentenced to confiscation of their homes and exile."
Wang Xifeng had a sudden thought and asked hurriedly, "Two crimes and punished at the same time? Lending loan sharks is something you and I agree on, so how can it be considered a crime?"
"Anyway, it's written in the law that anyone who dares to usury and exploit the common people will have to ransack their homes!"
Mrs.
Thanks to being at the feet of the Son of Heaven, Pan'er and the others dealt with it fairly, so how many people were killed outside!
Those loan sharks are commanded by gold slaves and silver servants, they are really black-hearted! "
Mother Jia also nodded, "That's the reason, the worst ones are those who give loan sharks to casinos.
How many sons of rich and noble families went bankrupt overnight because of a single gambling word or a loan shark."
While talking about Xue Baobao came back again, smiled and said, "And those wives and wives from rich and noble families also give loan sharks!
My father once told me that the wife of a wealthy family loaned money so that she could get some interest to support her family.
She let it go for many years but it was fine. When her daughter-in-law came in, she handed over the business to her.
However, this daughter-in-law was not as lucky as her mother-in-law. She was reported on, her property was confiscated, and she was divorced.
She argued that her mother-in-law had instructed her to do it, but at that time, no one would listen to her argument, so she had to dismiss it severely, so as not to embarrass the whole family.
The daughter-in-law hated it so much that she hanged herself overnight in front of her mother-in-law's door.
On the other hand, the mother-in-law continued the string for her son and gave birth to a pair of twins. Her life was prosperous and proud.
That daughter-in-law’s biological daughter asked someone else to become her mother and has to make a living under her stepmother. It’s really pitiful and deplorable.”
But Xue Baobao was worried about Mrs. Xue, didn't leave at all, just stood in the corridor, listening to what was said inside, but didn't want to but heard them talking about usury, so he couldn't help but walked in.
Mother Jia couldn't help being amazed when she heard this, Baobao Xue went to pull Wang Xifeng with a smile, "Sister Feng, the sisters said they have something to ask for you, send me to run errands, please trouble sister to come with us?"
Wang Xifeng was out of her mind, afraid of being spotted by Jia Mu and Mrs. Xue, so she took the opportunity to leave with Xue Baobao.
Xue Baobao's words just now were adapted from the experience of Wang Xifeng in the original book, just to scare Wang Xifeng so that she would not dare to lend usury any more.
There are so many female characters in the Red Chamber, during this time, Xue Baobao has come into contact with quite a lot, the one she likes most is definitely Lin Daiyu, but the one she admires the most is Wang Xifeng.
Whether it's readers or various books on red studies, some praise Wang Xifeng and many criticize it.
Wang Xifeng was most criticized for being, first, greedy for money, second, jealous, and third, vicious.
In the eyes of Xue Baobao, a woman in the new era, Wang Xifeng's so-called "envy" is definitely the horn of feminism!
I only hate that Wang Xifeng was not jealous enough, not thorough enough, leaving behind a product of feudal residual poison - Ping'er.
Wang Xifeng's "ruthlessness" is the most concentrated expression of dignity in the whole text. First, he "set up a lovesickness trap" that killed Jia Rui, and second, he "killed someone with a borrowed sword" and forced Sister You to death.
Xue Baobao said that Jia Rui is a bastard himself. How dare he be such a bastard to Xiao Xiang's sister-in-law? Why not kill him and let him continue to harm society?
Moreover, the tricks Wang Xifeng set up for him were nothing more than freezing him overnight, or dousing him with feces and urine, which were more like teasing.
What really killed Jia Rui was that he had emptied his own body. Later, he died while looking at the Feng Yue Baojian, which was exactly what he meant by the word "seeking death."
Wang Xifeng was the fuse, but not the root cause.
Let's talk about Second Sister You, not to mention Second Sister You's history, just look at her knowing that Jia Lian has already married a wife and had a daughter, but she still thinks about the second wife's grandmother, but anyone with blood wants to crush her to death, by the way Jia Lian.
Xue Baobao said that Wang Xifeng's biggest failure was due to the limitations of the times, and he never thought of solving Jia Lian easily.
Let's talk about the first word "greedy", this is definitely a black history that Wang Xifeng can't wash away.
Wang Xifeng is absolutely greedy for money, but why is she greedy, and why does she need to engage in usury and intervene in lawsuits to collect money?
Isn’t it to blame that Jia Lian, who is supposed to make money, knows how to spend it!
As long as Jia Lian can gain some of his ancestor Rong Guogong's skills, wouldn't Wang Xifeng be happy to be another "rich and idler" old lady Shi?
Wang Xifeng is a back-home girl who is illiterate and has limited vision. Apart from making money from places she is familiar with, where else can she make money?
The misfortunes of ancient women cannot be said to be 100%, but at least most of them were caused by men.
Thinking of this, Xue Baobao couldn't help but secretly sighed, but she didn't mention usury directly, instead she talked about Lin Daiyu, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Feng, don't bother the two masters.
My sister handled our affairs so beautifully last time, so I have to ask my sister for another favor this time. I will definitely thank you very much in the future! "
Wang Xifeng reluctantly turned her mind away from loan sharks and laughed and scolded, "You are a clear-sighted person. Just ask yourself, how can I help with this matter?
Today I'm only looking at my aunt, you messed up the first bait my ancestors laid, and you won't be sure about the next one.
Even if the aunt doesn't accept the old ancestor's fault, the old ancestor will never ask sister Lin to stay here again when he gets angry.
So, today, either Brother Bao stays or Sister Lin leaves, you have to choose one, and you can't get all the benefits."
Xue Baobao handed Wang Xifeng a string of purses, yes, it was a string of purses, each about the size of a child's palm, embroidered with auspicious and wishful patterns, and connected in a string with red thread, it was unique and lovely.
"This is for Sister Qiao, please help me take it back."
Wang Xifeng looked up and down and smiled, "It's quite interesting and cute. Sister Qiao will definitely like it. You just want to bribe me with just this wallet?"
Xue Baobao didn't answer her words, and pointed to the willow green princess dress with tassels and sash, "That was an idea I came up with, so that I can put more snacks around, so as not to taint the smell. This kind of Western princess dress Too".
Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "It's true that our little girl has a unique and clever mind, I thought you were only thinking about eating!"
Xue Baobao also laughed, "This Western princess dress was only sold out in various shops of the Xue family in the twelfth lunar month. After the new year, our family handed over all the business to our third uncle.
Because this western princess dress was my idea, my third uncle loves me, and promised that in the future, as long as it is a western princess dress, I will give me [-]% of the profits to add makeup."
Wang Xifeng is also a fuss about dressing up. She knows how to dress up and likes to dress up. Hearing that [-]% of the money is spent on makeup, she couldn't help swallowing, "How much is that?"
"From the first month to now, exactly ten months, this number."
Wang Xifeng looked at the number she compared and paused before speaking, "Six thousand silver?"
Xue Baobao laughed out loud, "Sister can coax me, how can my third uncle be embarrassed to give it to me for six thousand silver?"
Wang Xifeng, "..."
The Xue family is rich, the Xue family is rich!
"My third uncle also told me that if I have such a good idea in the future, I can let Xue's shop deliver it to me, and he will still give me a [-]% profit.
My sister also knows that I don't pay much attention to what I wear, and I only care about it to make our wife happy.
A few days ago, because Sister Lin came here, I came up with this thing in order to coax her to eat more.
Sister Youyang Lin painted many novel patterns and colors for me. With such a little thing, it took just over three months for Sister Lin to come to our house and she already had three to four thousand silver."
Xue Baobao looked at Wang Xifeng meaningfully, "Sister Feng, are you still saying that a small purse can't impress people?"
Wang Xifeng grabbed Xue Baobao's hand violently, her pair of red and phoenix triangular eyes were burning hot, "Sister, do you mean that you want to bring your sister to make a fortune together?"
Xue Baobao pursed his lips and smiled, "It depends on whether my sister can make my sister Lin and I get what we want!
It won't take long, just transfer Aunt Lin to the capital at the end of the year, or take Sister Lin back to Yangzhou."
Will this work?
Wang Xifeng was overjoyed, "Don't worry, sister, I will guarantee my sister this matter now, and I will never let my sister and sister Lin have any troubles!"
Xue Baobao shook her hand heavily, and smiled happily, "So I like to play with my sister, no matter what, just leave it to my sister.
In this way, in the future, I will share this line with my sister. Whether my sister has a good idea or a good ability to make those fresh and beautiful clothes and jewelry sell well, I will give all the profits from the third uncle to my sister. make money out of it."
Wang Xifeng said angrily, "Don't embarrass me, your Xue family can still argue with me for such a thing, that is, I am petty, but it is a joke for my sister."
Xue Baobao praised her sincerely, "My sister earns money with her skills, how can I laugh at her?
What I want to laugh at is the other wives and grandmas in your house!
Yesterday, I heard from my brother that he just caught those two loan sharks, but he was still yelling, the wives and grandmas of Rongguo Mansion are also lending interest, why not arrest them!
Compared with them, the little money my sister and I earn is cleaner than the snow on Tianshan Mountain! "
Wang Xifeng's heart, which was still hot just now, suddenly cooled down, and he hurriedly asked, "Which wife or grandma did they say it was?"
Xue Baobao just didn't know, "That didn't say anything, my brother is also my sister's first cousin.
Although those two people were talking about other wives and grandmothers, my brother could not let others ruin the reputation of the ladies and grandmothers of Rongfu, and let my sister follow suit.
Immediately, he kicked those two people a few times and told them not to spray dung all over their mouths. The two people were afraid of being beaten, so they stopped yelling.
If my sister is curious, I can't help but secretly beg my brother to ask in private, but it's also easy."
She spoke vividly, with action descriptions, language descriptions, and psychological descriptions. Wang Xifeng never thought that she would lie to her with such a thing, and hurriedly waved her hands, "I don't need it, so that it will be difficult to be a person in the future, and it is not good to say it." , it’s not good not to say.”
Xue Baobao nodded in agreement, "My sister is right, I told my brother that way at the time.
It's fine if you don't know, if you know, they are all relatives, do you agree or not?
If the usual words and deeds are accidentally brought out, it will be even more hated, it is better not to know."
Wang Xifeng hurriedly nodded in agreement, "My good boy, you have a bright eye and a bright heart, and you are very right. If your brother does something wrong, you have to persuade him more."
Xue Baobao agreed wholeheartedly, and said, "I have a ready-made idea about my sister's [-]% profit.
I heard that Brother Bao is very good at mixing rouge and water powder. Others use lead powder, and he uses hosta flower sticks.
People's rouge is all in sheets, but what he makes is like rose ointment. It is convenient and clean to use in a jade box, and it can also be used as blush.
If my sister can ask for a prescription, the shop will make it according to the prescription, and my sister will give it to the wives, grandmothers, and girls who are acquainted.
As long as they use it well, they all use that, and once they spread it to ten or ten, the sales will naturally increase, and within three months, at the end of the year at most, my sister will be able to see the profit."
As for why she knew what kind of rouge Jia Baoyu had, of course she had to thank Cao Dada!
Wang Xifeng was overjoyed, holding Xue Baobao's hand and praised repeatedly.
She is very confident in Jia Baoyu's prescription, as long as she coaxes "All daughters in the world can use better rouge and gouache", Jia Baoyu will send it over immediately, maybe it will be fresher again , better use it for her.
Sister Yingchun has read so many books, it must be a coincidence that she has insight and thinking, and the fourth girl also likes to draw, so she can also be called to draw flowers, think about new clothes and so on.
Xue Baobao laughed again, "Sister, I love you very much as a person. Now we have become business partners again. From now on, I will only treat you as my own sister. Sister, you must not dislike me!"
Wang Xifeng agreed repeatedly, this is the God of Wealth, the God of Wealth sent money to the door, and also wanted to be her own sister, she was so stupid to rush out!
Wang Xifeng has always been very talkative and cunning. Before, she didn't want to offend Jia Mu easily, but now that Yin Zi was beckoning in front of her, she forced her to keep Daiyu and take Baoyu away, all in vain. And back.
After returning to Jia's mansion, Wang Xifeng didn't even want to wait for a moment, and went to Jia Baoyu's yard overnight to ask him for a prescription.
Sure enough, as soon as she said a few words, Jia Baoyu gave it back without hesitation, and said that he would return it to her when he got a good one.
Early the next morning, Wang Xifeng sent someone to give the prescription to Xue Baobao. At the same time, he used Jia Mu and others as the reason to make fresh and beautiful clothes and jewelry, and told Sanchun to draw more patterns for her if she had nothing to do.
She is the head of Jia's family and the elder sister-in-law. Yingchun and Tanchun naturally agreed.
Xichun was still young, but she liked to draw. Wang Xifeng even bought a complete set of paints and brushes for her.
Xichun is also a pitiful little girl. Her father only wants to make elixirs and become an immortal, and her brother only wants to eat, drink, whore and gamble, and doesn't care about her.
In the original book, when Mother Jia asked her to paint the Grand View Garden, she, a lady who was obsessed with painting, had only a few colors of paint and a few brushes, which Xue Baochai helped her fill up.
Now that I have received Wang Xifeng's gift, I am full of gratitude and promise to paint flowers well.
After Wang Xifeng settled the matter swiftly and resolutely, he began to think about loan sharks.
(End of this chapter)
Mrs. Xue subconsciously looked at Xue Baobao, and Xue Baobao gave her a meaningful smile, then turned to ask Jia Baoyu, "Cousin Baoyu, I just discussed with Sister Lin and the others to play with sandbags and draw flowers, will you go too?"
Xue Baobao originally smiled at Mrs. Xue, but when he turned to look at Jia Baoyu, the smile on his face had not faded.
During these days, she tried her best to give Lin Daiyu food, so naturally she would not wrong herself.
She has grown taller, and she has lost a lot of her girlishness, and her snow-like skin has become more radiant. With such a smile, she is so charming and charming that there is no winner.
Jia Baoyu was stunned for a moment, thinking, "I didn't expect Sister Bao to be so beautiful when she smiled. I only hate that she is usually dignified and serious, and she won't let me get close easily, otherwise I'll be worth it if I die..."
Lin Daiyu had not smiled since she got up in the morning. When she saw Jia Baoyu's stupid look, she became even more angry. She snorted heavily and turned away.
Xue Baobao shouted cheerfully, "Madam, we're going", pulling Tanchun with one hand and Xichun with the other, and quickly caught up with Lin Daiyu, Zhen Yinglian also smiled and led Yingchun to follow.
Jia Baoyu was stunned, and started to chase after him.
Xue Pan scratched his head and asked, "Mom, cousin Baoyu doesn't want me to accompany him, so why don't I go on a business trip? Those two loan sharks were still locked up yesterday!"
Xue Pan was a fool and told the truth, but Mrs. Xue felt sad. If the Rongguo Mansion hadn't been so powerful, how could she have asked her son to delay his mission to entertain Baoyu!
However, Baoyu is not rare, he just wants to drill around her daughters!

Those who owe the money are in a hurry, go to our place to file a complaint, and Shangfeng will go and ask me to bring someone to arrest those two people, there is no time for interrogation! "
Mrs. Xue hurriedly asked, "How is that daughter?"
"I found it and sent it back."
Xue Pan said with a proud smile, "If I hadn't found it, I wouldn't be able to go home yesterday, and I would have to track it down overnight."
Mrs. Xue recited the Buddha's name repeatedly, "That's how it should be. As officials, the most important thing is to be the master of the people. Human life is a matter of heaven, and you should work harder yourself."
Wang Xifeng asked again, "If it is verified, what will be the sentence?"

Mother Jia also nodded, "That's the reason, the worst ones are those who give loan sharks to casinos.
How many sons of rich and noble families went bankrupt overnight because of a single gambling word or a loan shark."
While talking about Xue Baobao came back again, smiled and said, "And those wives and wives from rich and noble families also give loan sharks!

Immediately, he kicked those two people a few times and told them not to spray dung all over their mouths. The two people were afraid of being beaten, so they stopped yelling.
If my sister is curious, I can't help but secretly beg my brother to ask in private, but it's also easy."
She spoke vividly, with action descriptions, language descriptions, and psychological descriptions. Wang Xifeng never thought that she would lie to her with such a thing, and hurriedly waved her hands, "I don't need it, so that it will be difficult to be a person in the future, and it is not good to say it." , it’s not good not to say.”
Xue Baobao nodded in agreement, "My sister is right, I told my brother that way at the time.
It's fine if you don't know, if you know, they are all relatives, do you agree or not?
If the usual words and deeds are accidentally brought out, it will be even more hated, it is better not to know."
Wang Xifeng hurriedly nodded in agreement, "My good boy, you have a bright eye and a bright heart, and you are very right. If your brother does something wrong, you have to persuade him more."
Xue Baobao agreed wholeheartedly, and said, "I have a ready-made idea about my sister's [-]% profit.
I heard that Brother Bao is very good at mixing rouge and water powder. Others use lead powder, and he uses hosta flower sticks.
People's rouge is all in sheets, but what he makes is like rose ointment. It is convenient and clean to use in a jade box, and it can also be used as blush.
If my sister can ask for a prescription, the shop will make it according to the prescription, and my sister will give it to the wives, grandmothers, and girls who are acquainted.
As long as they use it well, they all use that, and once they spread it to ten or ten, the sales will naturally increase, and within three months, at the end of the year at most, my sister will be able to see the profit."
As for why she knew what kind of rouge Jia Baoyu had, of course she had to thank Cao Dada!
Wang Xifeng was overjoyed, holding Xue Baobao's hand and praised repeatedly.
She is very confident in Jia Baoyu's prescription, as long as she coaxes "All daughters in the world can use better rouge and gouache", Jia Baoyu will send it over immediately, maybe it will be fresher again , better use it for her.
Sister Yingchun has read so many books, it must be a coincidence that she has insight and thinking, and the fourth girl also likes to draw, so she can also be called to draw flowers, think about new clothes and so on.
Xue Baobao laughed again, "Sister, I love you very much as a person. Now we have become business partners again. From now on, I will only treat you as my own sister. Sister, you must not dislike me!"
Wang Xifeng agreed repeatedly, this is the God of Wealth, the God of Wealth sent money to the door, and also wanted to be her own sister, she was so stupid to rush out!
Wang Xifeng has always been very talkative and cunning. Before, she didn't want to offend Jia Mu easily, but now that Yin Zi was beckoning in front of her, she forced her to keep Daiyu and take Baoyu away, all in vain. And back.
After returning to Jia's mansion, Wang Xifeng didn't even want to wait for a moment, and went to Jia Baoyu's yard overnight to ask him for a prescription.
Sure enough, as soon as she said a few words, Jia Baoyu gave it back without hesitation, and said that he would return it to her when he got a good one.
Early the next morning, Wang Xifeng sent someone to give the prescription to Xue Baobao. At the same time, he used Jia Mu and others as the reason to make fresh and beautiful clothes and jewelry, and told Sanchun to draw more patterns for her if she had nothing to do.
She is the head of Jia's family and the elder sister-in-law. Yingchun and Tanchun naturally agreed.
Xichun was still young, but she liked to draw. Wang Xifeng even bought a complete set of paints and brushes for her.
Xichun is also a pitiful little girl. Her father only wants to make elixirs and become an immortal, and her brother only wants to eat, drink, whore and gamble, and doesn't care about her.
In the original book, when Mother Jia asked her to paint the Grand View Garden, she, a lady who was obsessed with painting, had only a few colors of paint and a few brushes, which Xue Baochai helped her fill up.
Now that I have received Wang Xifeng's gift, I am full of gratitude and promise to paint flowers well.
After Wang Xifeng settled the matter swiftly and resolutely, he began to think about loan sharks.
