After visiting Jia Lan, Shi Xiangyun felt a little uneasy. He tossed and turned all night. Before dawn the next day, he found Baochai in his room. He pulled Sister Baochai, who was looking at the mirror with yellow stickers, and said, "Sister Baochai, what are you talking about?"

Will anything go wrong?"

Although she didn't specify what it was, Baochai knew that she must be worried about Jiao Shun's plan.

Then he smiled and joked: "Isn't my sister full of confidence yesterday? She forced me to do something evil, and now why is she so panicked?"

"Oh, dear sister, I'm really worried that's why I came to ask you~!"

Shi Xiangyun reluctantly held Baochai's arm and acted coquettishly. Sister Baochai, who was upright and had her lapels slanted, hurriedly begged for mercy.

Baochai rearranged her clothes and was about to have a serious discussion with Xiangyun when she found this girl staring straight at her front.

Baochai covered her chest uncomfortably and said angrily: "What kind of monster are you doing?"

But Shi Xiangyun chuckled, covered his mouth and said, "It's strange that there are always people comparing my sister to Concubine Yang. If this continues, I'm afraid I will catch up with my aunt."

"Pooh!"

Xue Baochai turned around in shame, covered her chest with her cross arms, and said angrily: "What on earth are you here for? If you keep doing this, I will ignore you."

"I was wrong, isn't it okay that I was wrong?"

Shi Xiangyun decisively begged for mercy again, and after a few words of playful coaxing, the two sisters got down to business again.

I only heard Xiang Yun say in distress: "I was originally supposed to do this. Firstly, I wanted to help Brother Jiao, and secondly, I wanted to have fun. But after hearing what happened to Brother Lan yesterday, I was very upset.

It is said that a gentleman talks but does not take action, but those students did not hesitate to fight with fists and kicks when facing the innocent and implicated Langeer. If they face the real master like Brother Jiao..."

"Besides, the implications of this matter are far beyond our expectations. What should we do if something goes wrong?"

"You can rest assured."

Baochai hurriedly comforted him and said: "Since Brother Jiao took the initiative to provoke this matter, he has probably already prepared a strategy of advance and retreat, and will never put himself in danger."

Although this was what she said from her heart, it was not without reservation.

From Baochai's point of view, no matter how well planned something like this is, it is difficult to eliminate variables. This is in line with her original evaluation of Jiao Shun. He is full of talent and scheming, but his actions are somewhat reckless.

Take risks.

However, these words will only increase Xiangyun's troubles and have no effect at all.

Seeing that Xiangyun was still frowning, she smiled and joked: "Besides, how do you compare Brother Lan and Brother Jiao? If Brother Jiao is really going to encounter such a scene, I'm afraid it will be those scholars' turn.

The rat is scurrying away."

Shi Xiangyun thought of Jiao Shun's increasingly burly and majestic body, and the anxiety in his heart finally eased a lot. He chatted with Baochai for a while, and then went back to the house to wash up and eat.

After sending Xiangyun away, Baochai simply drank half a bowl of porridge, seven or eight quails wrapped in beef soup, and then set off for Qingtang thatched cottage.

She told Aunt Xue yesterday that she wanted to find out. Now that she got the news, she naturally wanted to report it back. However, since she had already made an oath, she couldn't be too clear about what she said.

So when I saw Aunt Xue, I could only say vaguely: "I have found out, but I promised others not to explain it clearly. In short, the matter is far more complicated than my uncle thought. Is there some other reason? It's best

Let's be patient and patient first, the Jiao family will move out by themselves after the new year at the latest, why bother to create unnecessary trouble now?"

"Alas~"

Aunt Xue hesitated to speak, and in the end she could only sigh: "Who says it's not the case? I'll discuss it with your aunt again."

Worried about her daughter asking about the reason, she hurriedly took out a letter from the box and handed it over: "Your second aunt sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that your sister will be sent to Beijing in July and a half. I guess.

At this moment, the brother and sister have already set off."

"Why are you here in such a hurry?"

Baochai was surprised and said: "Didn't you say you would leave after celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival at home?"

"Isn't the Mei family in a hurry?"

Aunt Xue said helplessly: "The old lady is seeing a lack of energy and energy. I hope your sister can leave as soon as possible, and all the customary rituals will be carried out as easily as possible."

“Isn’t this a happy occasion?!”

Baochai couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He sat across from the kang table, shook his fan vigorously and said, "As the saying goes, 'If the name is not right, the words will not be obeyed.' Now his family is pushing them regardless of etiquette, and the second aunt is completely obedient to him.

How do we know that the Mei family will not take advantage of it in the future?"

"Alas~"

Aunt Xue sighed again, straightened her loose skirt, and said with a wry smile: "Your second aunt is just like me, a woman with no independent opinions. Now the Xue family... plus this was decided by your second uncle during his lifetime."

Naturally, she only dared to go along with Cao Cao's marriage, for fear that the Mei family would regret the marriage."

Baochai silently opened the envelope and looked at it, and saw that the content inside was the same as what her mother said, except that she asked her family to help purchase some of the betrothal gifts, which were difficult to raise in a short time.

Baochai put down the letter and said helplessly: "This is more than a month ahead of schedule. The old house can't catch up with the construction period, so we can just pay it back. The old lady's birthday is coming soon. How can we suddenly withdraw at this time?"

"I'm worried about this too."

Aunt Xue suggested hesitantly: "Why don't we let the brothers and sisters live in the old house first, and we can wait until the old lady celebrates her birthday and then go over to meet up?"

"inappropriate."

Baochai shook his head: "If it were just Xue Biao and Bao Qin, it wouldn't matter if they went one day earlier or later. But since the Mei family is in such a hurry, they will definitely come to visit when the time comes. There won't even be any elders in the family by then.

Doesn’t it make the two siblings more embarrassed?"

"That……"

Aunt Xue opened her lapel in frustration, wondering: "Then what should we do?"

Baochai glanced at it unconsciously and found that there was still an insurmountable gap between them. It seemed that unless she waited to have children in the future...

Bah~

She secretly spat, cleared away the distracting thoughts in her mind, and said seriously: "In my daughter's opinion, it's better to tell the aunt and the old lady."

"That's all it can do."

Aunt Xue said, clasped her hands together and said: "I hope the old lady will be kind and let us move back to the old house in advance."

Although Baochai came up with the idea, she felt that things probably wouldn't go so smoothly.

At this time Aunt Xue resealed the letter, stood up and changed into casual clothes and said: "I will give this letter to your aunt to have a look at. I may go to the old lady's place later. Will you come with me, or..."

Baochai said hurriedly: "I still have some things to discuss with Sister Yun and Third Sister. Mom can do whatever she wants."

Aunt Xue took the letter and went to Mrs. Wang's room.

However, after meeting Mrs. Wang, she was not in a hurry to talk about her private affairs. Instead, she repeated Baochai's words, and then sighed: "Bao girl doesn't know the secret behind this after all. If my brother-in-law is really obedient,

It won’t get to the point where it is now.”

Mrs. Wang had just finished her morning classes. Although the weather was getting colder, she still refused to restrain herself and cover up. Fortunately, Aunt Xue had long been accustomed to her sister's open appearance.

Mrs. Wang frowned and said: "It's okay for others to say these things. If I say them, I'm afraid he will become more suspicious..."

Aunt Xue was about to nod her head when she heard this, but suddenly she heard Mrs. Wang say decisively: "But why should I have to take into account his feelings?!"

"elder sister!"

Aunt Xue was shocked. When she was about to persuade, Mrs. Wang raised her hand to stop her. She touched her heart without any barriers and said: "After I was persuaded by you yesterday, I also thought about enduring the calm for a while and taking a step back from the rain.

The weather has cleared up, but even when I was reciting the sutra, the shame and anger in my heart had not diminished even a little bit. Instead, it was so heavy that it made me breathless!"

To put it bluntly, it means being patient and getting angry the more you think about it, and the more you think about it when you step back, the more you will lose.

Aunt Xue saw that her sister couldn't hide the bitterness in her brows, so she couldn't persuade her anymore, but she couldn't hide the uneasiness on her face.

Instead, Mrs. Wang comforted her and said, "I just said a few words impartially. I never revealed the matter to Chang Qing. So what if he becomes suspicious for a moment?"

Mrs. Wang's words were not completely unreasonable, but she could not have imagined that Jiao Tailang's ears and eyes had already reached the east and west mansions.

…………

at the same time.

Li Wan's Daoxiang Village welcomed two more female guests, but the news finally reached Dongfu, so Mrs. You dragged Mrs. Xu to visit them.

After last night's enlightenment, Jia Lan's condition is much better now. He is willing to eat in the morning and knows how to say hello to people he meets, but he is very sleepy and has no energy.

Youshi pulled Jia Lan and asked a few questions, and saw that he was indeed not injured. Then she felt relieved. She turned around and took Li Wan to the outside, complaining repeatedly: "You didn't even say a word about such a big thing.

I heard the random news spread by those dogs this morning, and I thought something had happened to Langeer!"

As he spoke, he patted his chest and said, "I was so frightened that my heart was beating so hard, don't you believe it. I might not have been able to understand you before, but now that I have Brother Xiong, I know what it means to be connected by flesh and blood."

After a pause, he looked Li Wanqi up and down and said, "The child has been wronged. Why do you look better?"

Although Li Wan was a capable general in actual combat, after putting on his clothes, he still knew what etiquette, justice and shame were. He immediately interrupted and said: "Don't just talk about me and Brother Lan, how is the health of Brother Zhen in your house? I

I heard that your illness is not serious this time?"

"Why bring him up so well?"

Youshi showed an expression of extreme disgust, and then lowered his voice and said: "To tell you the truth, I only found out recently that what he has this time is actually a heart disease. At the end of last year, he was kept in Sifangguan Street because of his greed for novelty.

Two foreign ladies with yellow hair and blue eyes probably got infected at that time."

As he spoke, he sneered with gloating: "I said at the time that the foreign woman looked like she had white-collared wind. What good could she get with such a coquettish attitude? Nowadays, everything in our house is gloomy and gloomy.

Everyone who has had a relationship with him in the past six months, from the few concubines in the side house to the pretty rough wives, are all on tenterhooks for fear of being implicated by him."
