Red Mansion Beijingwang

Xue family.

In the inner room, Baochai and Baoqin were sitting on the kang couch by the window. The two sisters both had bright eyes, white teeth, and fair skin and bones. One was bright and charming, while the other was naive and innocent.

At this moment, Aunt Xue sat down next to Baochai, holding Baochai's soft little hand and chatting with her, and whispered, "Bao girl, your brother is getting married soon. I hope he will be a little better in the future and stop making trouble."

The marriage between the Xue family and the Xia family was decided early on, and Xia Jingui would marry into the Xue family soon. As the saying goes, starting a family and establishing a career, Aunt Xue hoped that Xue Pan would be able to settle down after getting married.

Baochai chuckled and said softly, "Mom, my brother is much better now, you don't have to worry."

Although Xue Pan still often goes out to drink and listen to music, he has become much more restrained than before. He may have fun, but he won't cause any trouble. This is already a huge change.

Of course, Baochai also knew the reason. It was nothing more than Shui Rong's warning that made Xue Pan restrain himself. Another important reason was that with the relationship with Prince Beijing's Mansion, other people would generally give the Xue family some face, so naturally they would not make trouble.

Aunt Xue naturally knew this. Ever since they had become close to Prince Beijing's Mansion, their Xue family had gradually gotten out of their predicament. She was very grateful that Baochai was able to enter the palace.

After a moment of silence, Aunt Xue's eyes moved slightly, and she turned to say, "Precious girl, didn't the prince say that he would be the master of ceremonies when Pan'er got married? When you are free, tell the prince about it, and don't delay his business."

This was a big deal for the Xue family. The words had been spoken. If the prince didn't come, the Xue family would lose face. Apart from anything else, the Xia family was so straightforward and prudent, wasn't it just for the sake of the Beijing Prince's Mansion?

Baochai frowned and replied, "Yes, I understand."

In fact, the girl thought that since the prince had agreed, he would most likely not break his promise. She didn't want to say anything more, as it would make her seem utilitarian.

Aunt Xue did not notice the change in Baochai's face. Seeing Baochai agreed, she felt relieved. She looked up at Baoqin, who seemed to be indifferent to the matter, and said with a smile, "Qin girl, Pan'er is going to get married, and you are the only one left in our Xue family."

Elders always like to talk about the marriage affairs of their younger generations. It has been like this since ancient times.

Baoqin was startled when she heard this. Her delicate eyebrows and eyes were shrouded in shame. She said, "Aunt, why are you saying these things for no reason? I'm still young!"

Aunt Xue looked at Baoqin with smiling eyes and said in a clear voice, "You are almost thirteen, not young anymore. In another two years, when you grow up, it will be difficult for you to find a good family."

The girl is not even as old as a 14-year-old girl, so she is really still young. However, in this era, the 14-year-old girl is not considered young, and many of them are married.

Besides, marriage is not something that can be done overnight. Apart from other things, Xue Pan and Xia Jingui had been discussing their marriage for more than half a year.

Baoqin's delicate face was covered with a barely perceptible rouge. She blinked and said, "Aunt, my brother-in-law told my father to let me play for two years. There's no rush."

She had begged her brother-in-law to postpone the marriage, but now that she had the golden order, there was no need to rush. She didn't want to worry about whether to get married or not. Wouldn't it be nice to just stay in the palace and have fun?

Aunt Xue glared at Baoqin and scolded her, "You little girl, just take advantage of the prince's favor and act recklessly. When you get older and can't find a good family, you will regret it."

Aunt Xue was also aware of this matter. However, if Baoqin wanted to get married, could the prince stop her? In her opinion, it was just Baoqin's own fault.

Baoqin looked unhappy. She lowered her head and playfully stuck out her tongue. Then she took Baochai's arm and said softly, "If I can't find the right one, I won't marry. I'll stay with Sister Bao as a companion. Sister Bao can't chase me out."

Aunt Xue didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a joke of a little girl, and scolded her with a smile: "You little girl, there is no girl who doesn't get married, you are just making a fuss."

Regardless of whether Baoqin gets married or not, how can a sister-in-law settle down in her brother-in-law's home? What kind of nonsense is that?

Baochai had a gentle face and a smile on her plump face. She reached out and rubbed Baoqin's head, saying lovingly, "I'm so happy that you can stay and keep me company. How could I chase you away? But mother is right. We girls will get married sooner or later and raise children. We can't make trouble. You've played enough in the past two years. I'll find a good husband for you then."

Baochai also likes Baoqin's playfulness, but she will not let Baoqin act recklessly.

Aunt Xue looked at Baochai with a face full of satisfaction. She was very satisfied with Baochai's understanding of things. This kind of dignity and steadiness was what a sister should be like.

Baoqin leaned in Baochai's arms, slightly pouting her pink lips. Her big, elf-like eyes twinkled under her willow-shaped eyebrows, and her heart was filled with thoughts.

Although the girl did not agree in her heart, it was undeniable that what Baochai said was irrefutable. Otherwise, why would her father be in a hurry to find a husband for her? If she had not been smart enough to beg her brother-in-law, her marriage would have been settled by now.

Once you get married, all kinds of rules come with it. This is not the life she wants. Even if she gets married, she wants to marry someone as open-minded as her brother-in-law who will never restrict them.

Fortunately, at least I don’t have to worry about these things in the next few years. If I really can’t bear the pressure, I will marry my brother-in-law, and my father and the others will have nothing to say!
Thinking of this, Baoqin's delicate little face suddenly turned red, and she felt extremely embarrassed. She didn't know why she was thinking about marrying her brother-in-law. The most important thing was that she didn't reject it in her heart, which made the girl's heart tremble.

As a sister-in-law, how can I be worthy of my sister if I always think about my brother-in-law?

Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Inside the side room, at the desk by the window, Daiyu was bent over the desk, holding a brush in her hand. Outside the window, there was a bamboo forest with green waves and a cool breeze blowing, which was very cool and pleasant.

The girl was wearing a white dress with a pink and green collar embroidered with bamboo leaves and plum blossoms. Her delicate bun was adorned with white pearl hairpins, making her look fresh and elegant. Under her curved eyebrows were a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water. She wrote attentively for a while, then put down her pen and sighed softly.

"Girl, what's wrong?" Zijuan was cleaning up nearby. When she heard the girl sigh, she asked with concern.

Daiyu's bright eyes were dim as she said sadly, "I don't usually see him coming here. I haven't seen him for a few days."

In the heart of the young girl, she longed for her brother to visit her often. However, her brother's ambivalent attitude made Daiyu feel uneasy. She knew that her brother was a playboy. He might be busy trying to please one of his sisters and had no time to pay attention to her.
Zijuan obviously knew who "he" was. It was none other than the girl's boyfriend. However, our Miss Lin fell into her old habit of becoming sentimental.

"The prince may be busy with government affairs and has no time to spare. Don't think too much about it. Besides, if the prince doesn't come, you can always go find him!" Zijuan suggested as she continued to pack.

"I'm not going. Don't bother me for no reason." Daiyu raised her eyebrows slightly and pouted her pink lips, but the sourness in her tone could not be hidden.

Zijuan laughed and said, "Miss, what are you talking about? The prince is concerned about you. If you take the initiative to visit the prince, he will be very happy."

When Daiyu heard this, a blush appeared on her fair cheeks. Her bright eyes, like the drizzle on a spring mountain, flickered slightly under her curved brows.

If she takes the initiative to visit him, will her brother be really happy?

Just as the girl was in a state of confusion, Xiren walked in, a smile appeared on her graceful face, and she said, "Miss Lin, the prince is here."

Daiyu was delighted when she heard this. She looked outside the door with her bright and moist eyes. Seeing the young man standing there happily, she looked at him with affectionate eyes and excitement between her brows.

As expected, her brother came to see her.

Shui Rong raised his eyes and looked at the girl in front of the desk. The autumn wind blew in through the window, blowing the girl's drooping black hair. This peaceful and quiet scene was like a painting. A smile appeared on his gentle face, and he called out in a gentle voice: "Pin'er."

When Daiyu heard that gentle call, her heart trembled slightly. She stroked a strand of black hair swaying in the wind with her slender hands. She lowered her delicate head, closed her eyelashes, and said softly, "Brother is here."

Zijuan's eyes moved slightly, she winked at Xiren beside her, and walked away, leaving the girl and the prince some private space to have a good chat.

Seeing this, Xiren glanced at the affectionate looks between the prince and Daiyu with her beautiful eyes. Her heart skipped a beat, but she said nothing and left with Zijuan knowingly.

As a senior maid, Xiren had actually long been aware of the improper relationship between the girl and the prince, but she did not... or did not dare to think about it.

However, now it seems that it is exactly as she guessed. There is nothing fishy about these two people. Her name, Xiren, is pronounced backwards.

However, Xiren didn't care about the relationship between the two. After all, they were just sworn brothers and sisters, not blood relatives. Moreover, Xiren was Daiyu's maid. If Daiyu followed the prince, she would benefit a lot as a maid. So Xiren was happy to see this.

But as for Master Bao... Well, Master Bao has that kind of temper. If Miss Lin really follows him, I'm afraid she won't have a good life!
Shui Rong didn't care about Zijuan and Xiren. He walked forward slowly, looked at the charming girl, and asked with concern, "Is Pin'er doing well these days?"

Daiyu raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. She looked up at the young man with a twinkling gaze and said in a clear voice, "I'm fine, brother. Have you finished your work outside?"

It would have been fine if it hadn't happened these past few days, but as soon as this matter was mentioned, the girl felt a surge of resentment in her heart. If he really cared about her, why had he not been seen for the past few days and was pretending to be so serious now?

Shui Rong understood what she said, or to be more precise, he got used to it. "Weird and weird" was Daiyu's nature.

Knowing that the girl was being petty, Shui Rong lowered his eyes to look at the paper on the desk that had not yet dried, reached out his hand and changed the subject: "What is Pin'er writing?"

"No, don't look at it." Seeing this, Daiyu felt anxious and embarrassed. She quickly stretched out her hand to stop him, and her fair face turned red.

Shui Rong was quick to take the paper and then turned his body to read it intently. This scene made Daiyu feel ashamed and angry, but she could do nothing about it. She was so angry that her face turned red, and her eyebrows were filled with shyness and a little moist.

"I live at the head of the Yangtze River, you live at the tail of the Yangtze River. I miss you every day, but I can't see you. Let's drink the water of the Yangtze River together."

Shui Rong recited it softly, and her heart was slightly moved. This was not the poem of Li Zhiyi from the Song Dynasty. It expressed the sorrow of missing her lover.

Thinking of this, Shui Rong turned around and looked at the girl. He saw that the girl's cheeks were flushed and her bright eyes were misty. It was obvious that she was extremely embarrassed.

Seeing this, Shui Rong stepped forward, reached out to wipe the tears from the girl's eyes, and said gently, "Pin'er, don't cry. Your brother feels bad for you when you cry."

Daiyu's nose twitched, she turned her head away, wiped it with her embroidered handkerchief, and said angrily: "Well, brother, if you want to laugh at me, then laugh at me. Anyway, I am just a worthless person, no one loves me."

I told him not to look at it, but the boy didn't care and just bullied himself.

Shui Rong knew that the girl was embarrassed and annoyed because her thoughts were exposed, so he reached out and gently stroked the girl's shaking shoulders, saying softly: "Pin'er, how could your brother laugh at you when you said that? You are so happy that you can't wait."

As a young girl in love, who else could Daiyu be in love with other than her brother? It is a happy thing that Daiyu can express her emotions through poetry.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Daiyu is the kind of romanticist. What she yearns for is a life of companionship. It’s not that this kind of life is bad, it just depends on the person.

Daiyu's body trembled slightly when she heard this. Her bright eyes twinkled under her two curved eyebrows, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red. She said, "Really?"

Shui Rong leaned close to the girl's crystal earlobe and whispered in her ear: "Pin'er's poem is missing the second verse, which also reflects my feelings for Pin'er."

When Daiyu heard this, her heart trembled, her two curved eyebrows frowned, and her eyes revealed joy and shyness.

"I only wish your heart is like mine, and I will never let you down." It turns out that her brother and she are the same.

Shui Rong pulled the girl's body back. Daiyu resisted symbolically for a while, then let it go. He reached out and gently pinched Daiyu's chin, lifted it up slightly, stared at the girl's creamy cheeks, and leaned over.

At this moment, no words are as effective as actions.

When Daiyu saw the young man approaching, a warm breath rushed towards her, making the girl's heart tremble. Her two curved eyebrows drooped, and her beautiful eyes closed. Then the young man held her lips, and a wanton breath swept over her.

I don't know how long it took, Daiyu leaned her delicate body in the boy's arms, her fair face was as gorgeous as clouds, her misty eyes were full of water, and her bright red lips were sparkling.

The girl raised her eyes to look at the boy who was savoring the moment, her heart was ashamed, her eyebrows were full of shame and anger, and she said in a trembling voice: "Brother, why don't you let me go quickly."

He came up to me while I was talking. How could I have such a brother?

Shui Rong gently stroked the girl's slender waist, smiled, and said, "Pin'er, we have been honest with each other, why are you still embarrassed?"

To be honest, although Shui Rong and Daiyu did not cross the line, they knew each other well, so a kiss was not a big deal.

When Daiyu heard this, her cheeks turned red and she felt even more ashamed. What was the point of being honest with each other? Don't think she didn't know the young man's insinuations.

This brother is really shameless.

The girl bit her pink lips with her pearly teeth, and placed her delicate hands in front of the boy. She lowered her head, her face flushed, and said shyly, "Brother, let me go first."

Even though they had been honest with each other, the girl still felt embarrassed when the man's breath was on her face. She felt her body go limp and her heart trembled.

Shui Rong didn't care. His hand had already reached for the button on the girl's collar. He gently pushed it, revealing the green inside. He said softly, "As soon as I saw Pin'er, I couldn't help but get close to her and couldn't bear to let her go."

Daiyu's delicate body trembled, and she secretly cursed in shame and annoyance. What does this mean by "can't help getting close"? Isn't it just about doing shameful things, and yet she says it in a high-sounding way?

Moreover, the young man's skillful movements took her a while to react. She didn't know how many people's buttons he had unbuttoned to practice this move.

However, Daiyu was still delighted by the boy's infatuated look. Her hand, which was raised in the air, dropped slightly. She did not stop him and let him do whatever he wanted.

Shui Rong looked at her carefully and said in a gentle voice, "Pin'er's skin is so icy and clear, and her complexion is so rosy and smooth."

It has to be said that Daiyu is such a beautiful girl as white as jade and with a snow-white body, she is truly fascinating. She is worthy of being called the Twin Beauties of the Red Chamber.

Of course, there is only one drawback, which is that the children will probably be hungry in the future.

When Daiyu heard this, she felt even more embarrassed and annoyed. She was criticized and treated like a prostitute and was just trying to please her.

But before Daiyu could say anything, her delicate body suddenly trembled, and she felt her heart beating. She lowered her eyes to glance at the young man, her heart pounding with shame. She slightly turned her head away, her snow-white face turned red as fire, and her beautiful eyes trembled constantly.

Really, such a grown-up person seems like a child who never grows up.

After a while, Shui Rong finally let go of the girl, staring at her shy face. His tightly closed eyes relaxed a little, as if a heavy burden had been relieved, and he couldn't help but smile in his heart.

Pursing his lips, Shui Rong leaned close to the beautiful woman's earlobe and whispered softly, "Pin'er, can I serve you?"

Daiyu's heart trembled when she heard this. She opened her beautiful eyes that had been closed and looked at the boy with slightly wide eyes. Shyness flashed between her brows and the straight hair under her skirt involuntarily came closer together.

This was not the first time, how could she not know how the young man served her? For a moment, Daiyu was so embarrassed that she could not help herself, and hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "Don't..."

At this moment, she felt a little uncomfortable down there. If the young man saw it, she would be so embarrassed.

However, just as she finished her words, she felt the familiar warm breath coming over her, blocking her from saying anything, leaving her feeling extremely ashamed and angry.

How can we communicate normally if you shut people up as soon as they disagree with you?

After a while, Daiyu's heart trembled, and she felt the plumpness of her waist changing, and then rising into the air like riding a cloud, which made her feel very embarrassed.

How could my brother do this? (End of this chapter)
