Volume C Chapter 29 Suddenly Transparent (Second update please vote!)
Xue Pan, who had been sitting aside in a daze, realized that the fire had finally burned on his head. He glanced at his sister with some displeasure, and felt that what his sister said was right. With Feng Ziying's current situation,
I am indeed qualified to support and help myself.
He remained silent in the end, but changed his bored attitude into one of lowering his head and pretending to think.
Feng Ziying also didn't expect Baochai to show up like this, so she quickly stood up and said, "Sister, you are too polite. Although Wenlong is a bit rough and lazy, he has a good temper. And I quite like Wenlong's natural and casual temperament. As for Wenlong's natural and casual temperament,
This is making a living. An inch is good and a foot is short. It’s normal that Wenlong is not good at making a living. Well, when it comes to dealing with people, take your time..."
Xue Baochai bowed gracefully, sat down again, pursed her red lips and smiled: "Brother Feng is so complimentary, so I should be careful. What the younger sister said before was true from the bottom of my heart, and there is absolutely no falsehood."
Feng Ziying shook her head, "My sister's kindness was accepted by my brother. Since this matter was proposed by my brother, naturally the Feng family cannot have a successor. Twelve thousand taels of silver is not a big sum, and the Feng family can afford it..."
"Brother Feng, my little sister also knows that this little money is nothing to the Feng family, but if you receive a drop of kindness from someone, you should repay it with a spring. This is the Xue family's creed. Since Brother Feng said this, then what?
The shares are 35% of the Xue family and 15% of the Feng family. What do you think, Brother Feng? If Brother Feng is still unwilling, then he is looking down on us, little sister..."
Xue Baochai's eyes turned red and there was a sad look on his face. Feng Ziying saw this and shook her head helplessly: "My sister doesn't need to do this, so just do what my sister said."
A bright smile suddenly bloomed on Xue Baochai's face, like a flower in the sun quietly opening its sweet and charming petals, even with a bit of moist dew and breath, like feather fan's eyelashes flickering lightly, dark eyes
The surprise in his eyes lingered.
This girl... Feng Ziying is in a complicated mood.
It seemed that the whole room fell into silence again, and the sound of falling leaves outside the window seemed to be heard. However, Xue Pan was like an old god at this time, turning a deaf ear to everything around him, truly acting like a clay statue of Bodhisattva.
Facing such a beautiful girl with a smart, generous and temperament, Feng Ziying suddenly felt that her response to the Jia family seemed a bit hasty.
So what about the Huangshang family, what about Xue Pan's troubles, am I still afraid of such challenges?
I have never tried hard on my parents’ attitude issues and how to deal with them, so how do I know it won’t work?
Sometimes I feel that I have no choice but to consider everything carefully and calculate all the pros and cons, but when it comes to marriage, it seems that I have intentionally or unintentionally put aside my personal likes and dislikes, which seems too utilitarian.
I obviously think the girl is very good, but I still feel so scrupulous, so regretful, so inappropriate, so flawed, how can I be so afraid of wolves in front of me and afraid of tigers in the back?
Aren't you afraid that such women will fall into the arms of other mediocre people in the future, and you will regret it endlessly?
Thinking of this, Feng Boai Ziying's heart suddenly became clear, and he tilted his head slightly: "Wenlong, you go out first, I still have a few words to say to my sister."
Xue Pan raised his eyes blankly, at a loss.
Huh? I'm going out? Where is this? Where am I going? Is this my sister in front of me, or your sister?
But at this time, Xue Pan was stunned for only a moment. He quickly returned to his daily "qingming" and stood up straight away, "Okay, sir, please talk to your sister for a while. Brother, I suddenly fell asleep and I want to take a nap."
, Ying'er, you go out too!"
Ying'er, who was standing behind Xue Baochai, was only slightly startled. She glanced at the girl who was blushing but said nothing. She followed Xue Pan quietly and left without saying a word.
Feng Ziying took a deep breath and thought about her words.
Now that she has made her decision, Feng Ziying will not back down.
At this time, he had already guessed the reason why Aunt Xue was uneasy before.
Most likely, Mrs. Wang had already gotten through with Aunt Xue and knew that the reason she came to visit today was to talk about the marriage between her Feng and Xue family.
It's just that Aunt Xue didn't know what Feng Ziying meant by coming here, so she was uneasy. She probably should have gone to Mrs. Wang to inquire about the news.
This means that Baochai in front of him probably knows something about this matter.
After gathering herself, Feng Ziying said: "I'm afraid my sister knows that my brother went to the Rongguo Mansion today and met Uncle Zheng Shi and his aunt..."
"Ah?..." Xue Baochai didn't expect Feng Ziying to get straight to the point and go straight to the topic. His face suddenly turned red and then turned white, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly. Was he coming to apologize and say that it was fate or not?
Xue Baochai felt a little sad and desperate. In fact, when she knew that her mother and aunt were handling the matter, she was not optimistic about it.
The gap between the Feng family and the Xue family is not too big, but Feng Ziying is so outstanding. Before he passed the imperial examination, it was still possible for the two families to discuss marriage, but after he passed the imperial examination, it was still possible.
This possibility continues to shrink, even to the point where there is a huge and insurmountable gap between the two parties.
Xue Baochai is not the kind of romantic and passionate person. The decline of the Xue family in the past few years and all the things she encountered along the way to Beijing and even after going to Beijing have made her more mature than other girls of the same age.
Look at how different the performance of Jia Baoyu and his brother, who are both the legitimate sons of the four families of King Jia Shi and Xue, are. However, their reputation in front of and behind others and everyone's attitude towards them are completely different. This is really brought about by their performance.
Did you come?
In Baochai's opinion, there may be, but it is by no means the main factor.
If the Xue family were now in the same situation as the Jia family, and the Jia family was a family like the Xue family, I'm afraid the result would be reversed, and Baoyu would become a non-farmer in the eyes of everyone and would only ask why he didn't eat minced meat.
of waste.
Of course, this does not mean that she does not have the romantic aspirations of girls of her age. Feng Ziying's appearance is like the sunshine shining on the entire Jia family, attracting countless people, and she is no exception. She can even appreciate Feng Ziying better than other girls.
It's not easy and wonderful, so she has such extravagant hopes for such a marriage with obvious mismatches in family background.
"...Uncle Zhengshi and aunt both mentioned my brother's marriage, um, they also mentioned my sister,..."
Feng Ziying looked at her with clear eyes. Xue Baochai didn't know what to do for a moment. After all, she was only a fifteen-year-old girl. Even though she had been mentally prepared, she was talked about her marriage.
It's hard to avoid being a little scared and shy.
"Maybe my sister also knows that brother Wei's marriage should be decided by his parents, but they may think that brother Wei is a little different and may have a certain say in his own marriage. Well, brother Wei also admits that his father and mother
I will respect my brother's decision in many matters, but marriage is no different than other matters. It involves both families and even clans, and it also involves many follow-ups in the future, so even my brother cannot completely make the decision..."
Xue Baochai's heart slowly sank. She could feel that the handsome and handsome Brother Feng opposite her had a good impression of her, but this good feeling was difficult to transform into a substantial impact on the marriage agreement.
Seeing that Baochai's cheeks were slightly faded but still maintained a stubborn and self-respecting expression, Feng Ziying felt more and more that if she really missed such a good match, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
"So, Brother Wei wants to confess his crime first, and then take the liberty to ask his sister. But my sister also thinks that Brother Wei can be trusted and relied on?"
This statement was obviously a bit abrupt and reckless, so it is no wonder that Feng Ziying wanted to plead guilty first.
Xue Baochai's eyes suddenly lit up, what did he mean by this?
Now that the time has come, does it make sense to ask such questions?
Facing Feng Ziying's sharp eyes, Baochai, who was pink and dimpled, did not speak for a while. After a while, she whispered softly: "Brother Feng is well known to everyone, why do you need little sister to comment?"
The answer was very tactful, but the meaning was very clear. It is impossible for a girl to say anything too explicit. Feng Ziying nodded: "In that case, I will ask you one more question. It is difficult for me to decide this matter myself at this time. I don't know."
My sister is willing to wait another two years..."
Baochai stood up suddenly and looked directly at Feng Ziying: "What does Brother Feng mean by this?"
Feng Ziying also stood up and looked back at her: "If my sister loves you, I will make it clear here that I will never let my sister down, but..."
"Just what?" Xue Baochai's breathing became rapid, and her cheeks were hot. It involved a major event in her life, and it was discussed in such an incredible way. How could she not be nervous, worried, and shy at the same time?
Could it be that he wanted to make her his concubine? A kind of shame and anger overflowed in his chest, and Baochai's slightly sizable chest couldn't help but rise and fall sharply, and his eyes became more intense, but why did he still have some expectations?
"It's just that as Brother Wei said, these matters involve too much, and I'm afraid my sister also knows that Brother Wei's matters are not just Brother's..."
Feng Ziying pondered the explanation with some difficulty, but she saw Baochai's almond-shaped eyes widening, and said decisively: "Brother Feng, there is no need to say more, my sister understands that as long as Brother Feng says a word, my sister is willing to wait for three to five years!
"
Feng Ziying was surprised, "Sister, you have to think carefully..."
"Brother Feng, although the younger sister is a woman, she still knows how to keep one's word. How can someone like Brother Feng deceive the younger sister? If that is the case, the younger sister will think that her life is miserable and she cannot bear to serve Aunt Weng..."
The determination in her words shocked Feng Ziying, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
After a long time, Feng Ziying said in a deep voice: "Thanks to my sister for being so trusting and loving, I will never dare to betray my beloved as a brother!"
