Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 458 Baoqin: Sisterly Love

As for Xiangyun, after parting with Shuirong, the girl went straight back to her own courtyard. Just as she sat down and hadn't even had a sip of tea, Baoqin came in and called out, "Sister Yun."

Xiangyun looked at Baoqin intently, and her mind couldn't help but recall the scene of peeping. Her plump face flushed slightly, especially when she thought of Baoqin having slapped her brother-in-law in the face. Then she felt her heart tremble for a moment, and she lowered her head, not knowing what to say.

Baoqin understood what was happening, and her plump face looked a little unnatural, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

It's embarrassing, but since Xiangyun knows everything, there's no point in hiding. In that case, I can only speak out openly.

Otherwise, how should the two of them get along with each other since they will see each other every day?

Thinking of this, Baoqin suppressed her shyness and walked in. She looked up at Xiangyun who was feeling uneasy. Her beautiful eyes flashed and she asked, "Sister Yun, what did your brother-in-law say to you just now?"

Xiangyun's heart was shocked when she heard this, and her face turned red as rouge. She and her brother-in-law didn't say anything, but she was kissed and touched by him. However, how could she tell Baoqin about this?

Pursing her pink lips, Xiangyun clutched the embroidered handkerchief with her bare hands. She smiled nonchalantly and said, "Nothing, it's just that my brother-in-law told me to keep my mouth shut and not gossip about it."

Speaking of which, Baoqin and her brother-in-law are much closer than she is. Why is Baoqin questioning him now? It seems as if it is her fault alone.

Baoqin's lips twitched slightly when she heard this, then she calmed down, blinked her eyes, and said, "Sister Yun, why did I see my brother-in-law holding your hand?"

Xiangyun: "..."

How did Baoqin know that her brother-in-law was holding her hand? Could it be that she saw it?

At this moment, Xiangyun's plump and white face was burning hot, and she was ashamed. She said in a trembling voice: "You went back, how do you know about your brother-in-law?"

Baoqin's beautiful eyes twinkled, she smiled and said, "No, I'm just watching outside."

That's right, although Baoqin left the house, she didn't go far. She vaguely felt that this matter was not simple. Firstly, it was Xiangyun's sour taste, and secondly, it was beyond her understanding of her brother-in-law.

After all, my brother-in-law is a bad guy. He knew Xiangyun was outside, but he still did his own thing. She even keenly noticed that her brother-in-law was acting strangely and felt a little suffocated.

According to Baoqin's guess, Sister Yun could not escape either, so she deliberately found an excuse to leave, but in fact she was observing in secret to verify her guess.

When her brother-in-law walked out with Xiangyun, Baoqin understood what was going on and came forward with confidence.

Humph, now they are all on the same boat, so no one should laugh at anyone else.

When Xiangyun heard this, her cheeks turned red, and her bright eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows looked at Baoqin with burning affection, her heart filled with shame and anger.

Unexpectedly, Baoqin also peeped at Xiangyun, but Xiangyun could do nothing about it. After all, she was not much better, so it was just a tit-for-tat.

Baoqin understood what was happening, and stepped forward, holding Xiangyun's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Yun, don't be angry, I was just curious for a moment. I won't say anything more. Now we are all my brother-in-law's people, and we will be good sisters for life."

Xiangyun's heart trembled when she heard this, her cheeks flushed, and she whispered, "Sister Baoqin, you... don't tell me, when did I become my brother-in-law's person?"

Since when did she become my brother-in-law's woman?

Baoqin's beautiful eyes flickered, and she said, "Could it be that Sister Yun doesn't like Brother-in-law? But I see that Brother-in-law likes you, Sister Yun."

As she spoke, Baoqin seemed to remember something, and a strange thought surged in her heart. She leaned forward and murmured in a low voice: "Sister Yun, let me tell you, when you are outside, your brother-in-law can..."

She knew that both her brother-in-law and Sister Yun had some intentions in their hearts. If that was the case, she would be the one to break through this barrier.

Xiangyun felt as if her ears were burned when she heard this. Her slightly chubby white face almost blushed as she stammered, "Sister Baoqin, you...you..."

She told all the details of serving her brother-in-law. This girl is really crazy and dares to say anything.

It was only from Baoqin's words that Xiangyun keenly grasped the key point. It turned out that her brother-in-law's bravery could change, which was truly frightening.

If what Baoqin said was true, then her brother-in-law really liked her. For a moment, she felt secretly happy deep in her heart.

Baoqin blushed at this time and said, "Sister Yun, what's the big deal? You will have to serve your brother-in-law in the future."

Now that things have come to this, she has nothing to be shy about. After all, she had traveled extensively with her father in her early years, and her personality was not as reserved as other girls in the boudoir, such as Xiangyun. She was more forthright than the usually generous Xiangyun.

Besides, as best friends, they should share the joys and sorrows. Could it be possible that Sister Yun could escape the suffering she had endured?

Xiangyun's cheeks flushed red, and she felt her heart pounding. She said shyly, "Sister Baoqin, what are you talking about?"

To serve my brother-in-law would be like being like Baoqin. How could I bear it considering how brave and heroic my brother-in-law is?

At this moment, the girl felt embarrassed, but also worried. She covered her pink lips with her slender hands, her bright eyes slightly widened, and even her legs were slightly brought together under her skirt.

Although Xiangyun was worried, she never thought of refusing.

Baoqin's snow-white face blushed, but she didn't hesitate. She took Xiangyun's hand and said, "Sister Yun, we are all my brother-in-law's people. It's just that I don't know what to say to my elder sister and Baojie."

This time Baoqin and Xiangyun had a showdown, but there was another purpose, which was to please Yuanchun and Baochai. It wasn't because she was afraid that they would dislike her and reject her, but she just felt a little sorry for them.

After all, her sisters all treated her well, but she and her brother-in-law had a bad relationship. It was hard to explain.

Xiangyun was shocked when she heard this. An unnatural look appeared on her originally shy face. She didn't know what to say for a moment.

In fact, it was not only Baoqin who was worried. Xiangyun herself was not much better. Her sisters treated them so well, but they were having affairs with their brothers-in-law in secret. How could she be worthy of them?

However, now they were all bullied by their brother-in-law, so how could they have any way to regret it?

Besides, if they really have to part ways with their brother-in-law, the girls are still very reluctant in their hearts. Otherwise, how could they allow their brother-in-law to bully them like that.

Biting her pink lips with her pearly teeth, Xiangyun raised her delicate head and looked at Baoqin. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she said, "Sister Baoqin, what do you think?"

She knew that Baoqin was a mischievous person with many bad intentions. She was confronting her this time, probably to drag her into the water with her.

Baoqin pouted her lips slightly and said softly, "How would I know? I have discussed this with you, sister. Besides, it was my brother-in-law who bullied us, so he has to step up."

She just felt that she was alone and weak and had no idea what to do, so she discussed it with Xiangyun, who was also in an awkward position.

Xiangyun blinked and didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, what Baoqin said was right, it was her brother-in-law who bullied them.

There is no one who would kiss you right away and become more and more addicted to it.

At this moment, Xiangyun also subconsciously regarded Baoqin as an ally. Their purpose was not to compete for favor or anything, but to think about how to stay by her brother-in-law's side without disgusting her sisters.
Xue family, Xia Jingui's courtyard.

Xia Jingui stood in front of the window, looking up, an unnatural look appeared on her beautiful face, and she seemed a little impatient. She said, "Baochan, do you think Mr. Xue is going to come back? He hasn't come back yet."

Baochan's beautiful eyes flickered and she said, "Grandma, you know what kind of temper the master has, but I don't know." This Master Xue has always been unreliable. If she were to reply to this question, and something went wrong, she would most likely be the target of his anger, which would not be worth it.

But when Baochan saw Xia Jingui's murky face, she was startled and said hurriedly, "However, considering the relationship between the Xue family and Beijing Prince's Mansion, I think the prince will grant this favor."

Xia Jingui's eyebrows relaxed a little after hearing this, and she said, "That's true."

Not to mention the relationship between the Xue family and the Jia family where they share weal and woe, just because her sister-in-law is favored by the prince, she basically won't ignore the Xue family.

Although the prince is not in the Xue family, he is everywhere in the Xue family.

At this moment, Xia Jingui saw Xue Pan in the yard. Her beautiful eyes slightly smiled, and her eyebrows were filled with joy. She hurriedly greeted him at the door and said with a smile, "Master is back."

Xue Pan looked at the graceful Xia Jingui who took the initiative to greet him, and felt relieved. He nodded and said, "Well, I'm back."

Xia Jingui's beautiful eyes flickered, and she asked impatiently, "Master, what did the prince say?"

It was she who instigated the idea of ​​inviting the prince to be the host, and she didn't want any accidents to happen.

Xue Pan said with a proud look on his face: "My lord, there is still something that I cannot accomplish. The prince said that he will come to our house when he is free in two days."

Xia Jingui's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, but when she saw Xue Pan's lack of ambition, her narrow and long eyebrows slightly raised, and she secretly felt disgusted in her heart. Xue Pan still thought that he was something great, and he only rose to power by relying on his sister.

However, Xia Jingui did not expose the truth and welcomed Xue Pan into the house with a smile.

Xue Pan thought that his face had been greatly improved, and his masterly demeanor was revealed. He sat down in a dignified manner, and said earnestly: "The prince has given us this honor, so we must not neglect it, and do a good job, and don't save those scattered silver."

Xia Jingui raised her eyebrows, picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea. Her narrow eyes flashed under her crescent-shaped eyelashes, and she said, "Don't worry, sir. I know what I'm doing."

How could Xia Jingui neglect such a distinguished man as the prince? The heroic figure who made the final move lingered in her mind for a long time, making Xia Jingui's heart flutter, and the straight hair under her skirt couldn't help but slightly close together.

After Xue Pan was proud of himself, he sighed and complained: "But why do we have to work so hard? It would be better if we have mom and little sister."

Although Xue Pan invited people, he was actually afraid of Shui Rong. Thinking about having dinner with the prince, Xue Pan could recall the discomfort he felt that day.

But under Xia Jingui's charming attack, he had no choice but to go ahead.

Xia Jingui glanced at Xue Pan with contempt in her eyes. If it weren't for the reliance on Prince Beijing's Mansion, how could the Xue family be so prosperous?
It's a pity that the Xue family is a business family, but they don't even know how to maintain the most basic relationships. They just rely on the beauty of their sister-in-law. They don't have the opinions of the head of the family at all. They are really not up to the standard.

However, Xia Jingui was thinking about "business" and could only suppress her temper and explained softly: "My dear master, the prince has taken great care of our Xue family. As the head of the family, how can you not express your gratitude? If I am not doing this for the good of my master, I would not have to lose face."

As she spoke, Xia Jingui wiped the corners of her eyes with an embroidered handkerchief and pretended to sob.

Xue Pan saw Xia Jingui's aggrieved face, and his heart softened. He knew that the prince had scolded Xia Jingui and even asked her to kneel down and apologize. However, he was touched that Xia Jingui could be humble for his future. He stood up and comforted her, "Okay, I know what my lady meant, don't worry."

Xia Jingui's beautiful eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and she was secretly delighted. However, when she saw Xue Pan's hand approaching her, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and she turned away inconspicuously, choking and saying, "It's good that you know what's going on, Master."

Xue Pan looked at his empty hand, but didn't take it seriously. He had been moved by Xia Jingui's bright and charming face, her graceful body wrapped in a brocade dress.

Putting his hands on Xia Jingui's shoulders and massaging them gently, Xue Pan said with a smile: "My wife, you have worked hard. I will reward you well."

When Xia Jingui heard this, a look of disgust appeared on her beautiful face. If she wasn't afraid of something going wrong, she would have used these dog paws to get close to him. What kind of reward would she give him? If she couldn't control that thing, she should just say so.

With a "pa" sound, Xia Jingui swung her hand and knocked down the hand that was gradually moving downwards, and shouted: "I am not one of those pimps, don't try to play tricks on me."

He said he was not feeling well, but he still wouldn't give in. He was truly a bastard controlled by that thing. If he wasn't still of some use, he would have been kicked out long ago.

Xue Pan let out a cry of surprise, then glared at Xia Jingui angrily, feeling furious. He thought Xia Jingui had changed her personality, but he didn't expect that she was still so cruel and ruthless.

At this time, Baochan hurried forward and said, "Hey, sir, the young lady has been feeling unwell these past two days, please don't worry about it."

Xue Pan suddenly realized what was happening when he heard this. He was not feeling well and there was nothing he could do about it. He just vaguely remembered that something was wrong with Xia Jingui's life. However, he never cared about this matter and did not think much about it.

Baochan saw that Xue Pan had been calmed down, and then said, "Master, please go back first!"

Xue Pan thought what she said made sense, but at the moment he was a little angry because of Xia Jingui, and he felt very depressed. He stared at Baochan, and his heart was slightly moved.

Baochan was a rather charming girl. Actually, Xue Pan had had this idea for a long time. However, facing the powerful Xia Jingui, he did not dare to be presumptuous. After thinking about it, he felt that he had just displeased Xia Jingui, so he did not shamelessly ask for it. He left angrily, planning to have some fun outside.

Xia Jingui looked at Xue Pan's departing back and secretly cursed in her heart. He didn't even hide his dirty eyes. Did he think she was blind?

After secretly spitting twice, Xia Jingui ignored him. After all, her mind was no longer on Xue Pan, but she had to think about the time when the prince would arrive. So she said, "I'm tired, you go out and wait!"

Baochan's beautiful eyes flickered, but she did not respond. Instead, she carefully asked, "Grandma, what is your plan for inviting the prince?"

As a personal maid, Baochan has followed Xia Jingui since she was a child, so how could she not know her temper? This time, she took the trouble to ask Master Xue to invite the prince, and she must have had bad intentions in her heart.

Xia Jingui paused for a moment, turned around, raised her narrow eyebrows, stared at Baochan with wide eyes, and shouted, "I still need to ask you about my work, who the hell are you?"

Baochan was shocked and hurriedly explained, "I am on the same side as Grandma. I am afraid that I might neglect something and cause trouble for Grandma."

Xia Jingui was annoyed to see Baochan dare to talk back, but on second thought, she felt that it made sense. After all, as Baochan's personal maid, if she wanted to do something, she would have to ask her for help. Others could hide it, but how could she hide it from Baochan?
Looking at Baochan with lowered eyebrows and eyes, Xia Jingui's beautiful eyes flashed and asked, "Do you know what I want to do?"

Baochan was stunned when she heard this, and said angrily: "How can I know what grandma is going to do, but grandma, don't worry, I am with you, how can I have two hearts? No matter what grandma wants to do, I will support you 100%."

Something has been wrong since her grandmother was punished by the prince. Baochan guessed Xia Jingui's intention. She had been spoiled since she was a child. She liked all good things, and if they were not available, she would try every means to get them.

Which girl can ignore a man of the prince's character? My grandmother has set her sights on the prince.

But even though she guessed it, Baochan wouldn't be stupid enough to expose it.

Xia Jingui was satisfied when she heard this. She looked up at Baochan and asked with a smile, "What do you think of the prince?"

Baochan's heart moved, and she rolled her eyes to scare Jingui into a smile, saying, "I am a person of low status, so how can I comment on the prince? However, a man as noble as the prince must be very good. In my opinion, with your beauty, you are worthy of the prince."

Xia Jingui was overjoyed when she heard this. Her beautiful face smiled and she scolded, "You are not a good girl. I guess you like me but you are using me as a scapegoat, right?"

When Baochan saw Xia Jingui's expression, she immediately understood what was going on and said hurriedly, "That's just what grandma thinks. I feel bad for her. If grandma really wants to please the prince, I have an idea."

When Xia Jingui heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She was just worrying about what to do, but she didn't expect Baochan to have an idea. In that case, maybe she could listen to him.

Thinking of this, Xia Jingui looked at Baochan intently and asked, "Tell me about it. If the method is useful, I will give you a reward and I will definitely not treat you unfairly." (End of this chapter)
