Chapter 798 Let Him Go

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth and entered Baochai's boudoir. However, after greetings, she really didn't know how to open her mouth.

You can't just go straight to the point and directly urge Baochai and Jiao Shun to communicate privately, right?

She was hesitant and did not dare to reveal anything, and Xue Baochai was even less anxious. She felt regret for Jiao Shun, hatred for Baoyu, and resentment for Mrs. Wang. All kinds of emotions were mixed together, which led to her half-hearted resignation in the snow that day.

To put it bluntly, there is no sincere relationship between her and Jiao Shun, not even a love affair. Just now she got emotional and impulsively sent Ying'er to contact Jiao Shun; now she has calmed down again and is with Jiao Shun.

Jiao Shun's matter is in a dilemma.

As for whether it is possible or not, it depends on Mrs. Wang's performance.

She wanted to force Mrs. Wang to take the initiative to speak out. Firstly, she wanted to expose Mrs. Wang's hypocritical face; secondly, she wanted to turn passive into active and prevent this matter from becoming a handle for her.

If Mrs. Wang refuses to point it out, it will most likely break up.

With this in mind, she sat quietly in the Diaoyutai. Seeing that Mrs. Wang didn't speak, she took the initiative to start a conversation. The family in the east and the west had shortcomings. Even though Mrs. Wang asked and answered every question, she still talked with gusto.

But things are different here with Mrs. Wang. Jiao Shunke is still waiting in the hut in Qingtang. If he continues to chat so endlessly, when will he be done?

But she couldn't open her mouth and couldn't keep up, which was as uncomfortable as possible.

Gradually, I was filled with anger, and I wished I could go back to Jiao Shun for a showdown: I want the big ones too, and you can flirt with the little ones too. Aren't you afraid that I will sue the Xue family and beat you to pieces?!

But this is just thinking about it in your mind.

After all, she had no real evidence, and she really wanted to expose the matter. If the two of them tried to frame themselves up, it was not certain who Aunt Xue would believe.

Even if Aunt Xue believed it, her role in this matter was not very glorious. Even if she could not be considered as aiding the evildoers, she was at least tolerating and conniving. How could Mrs. Wang have the confidence to expose this matter?

When I was in a dilemma, I suddenly saw two letters on the coffee table, with Baoyu's name clearly written on the header.

"This is……"

Mrs. Wang subconsciously pointed towards the coffee table.

Xue Baochai stopped talking, his expression suddenly became much lighter, and he said softly: "That is the letter from Baoyu that Baoyu sent yesterday - the thick one is for Xi Ren."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but secretly scolded Baoyu for being ignorant. He wrote so many letters to the maid, but didn't even write a tenth of the letters to his wife. If this happened to her, she would definitely not be happy.

But thinking about all the bastard things he has done, it seems that this one is not bad.

While Mrs. Wang was cursing, she reached for the thick envelope, opened it and read it - the young couple's private family letters. As a mother-in-law, it was natural for her not to read them randomly, but what should be kept secret about something written to the maid?

?

She looked through this thing, not only to see what Baoyu wrote to Xiren, but also to take the opportunity to organize her thoughts and think about countermeasures.

So she read it very quickly at first. After all, Jia Zheng had already mentioned the really useful information in the letter - for example, the Zhen family was ransacked - until she saw those Buddhist verses, Mrs. Wang's reading speed suddenly slowed down.

In terms of her cultural level, she is only slightly better than Wang Xifeng, who is roughly literate (and can read account books), but not to the level of being able to appreciate poetry and songs.

But this Buddhist verse is a special case.

When Mrs. Wang started to practice Zen and worship the Buddha, she was afraid that Miaoyu had not even been born yet. She was naturally familiar with these principles of Zen, so she immediately saw the strong world-weariness in her.

This evil obstacle that does not know how to restrain itself!

Mrs. Wang felt that her chest was congested, and she repeatedly ordered him to stay away from these things. He had promised well at that time, but who would have imagined that not long after leaving home, he would be trapped deeper than before.

What might happen when we come back from the south?

Especially when you look at what he wrote to Xi Ren, you can tell that he is attached to Xi Ren. If after returning to the capital, he finds that Xi Ren has become the dowry of the third girl, I am afraid that he will have to find out more about the world.

But what can I do?

The three girls came to ask for her, and Xiren wanted to go, but the Jiao family was willing to accept her, so how could they still stop her?

Mrs. Wang was getting more and more uncomfortable when she thought about it, and suddenly a thought came to her mind: Now that Baoyu has been dismissed from office and has been punished with a punishment that will never be used again, there is no hope for anyone around him, so she might as well just let him go!

"Baby girl!"

Mrs. Wang bit her silver teeth and suddenly raised her head: "If Baoyu really can't let go of the idea of ​​becoming a monk, let's just let him do it!"

"Leave it to him?"

When Xue Baochai was reading the letter silently, she was also thinking about something in her mind, so she couldn't react for a while, but soon a look of surprise appeared on her face: "What does the madam mean, does it mean...

"

Mrs. Wang took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, and said with a hint of sobs: "Hey, maybe this is the family's favorite. Didn't Brother Jing from the East Mansion practice Taoism for half his life? We have a monk from the West Mansion, which is quite complete.

Got it!"

As she said that, she stretched out her hand to hold Baochai's catkins: "It's just a pain for you."

Xue Baochai responded silently.

She had a vague feeling that Mrs. Wang might be trying to show her off.

Sure enough, Mrs. Wang waited for a while and saw no answer, so she sighed again: "After all, I am also your aunt, and I have watched you grow up since you were a child. How can I bear to let you become a widow at such a young age? What if?

If one day comes, I will allow you to remarry to another family!"

"How does this work?!"

Xue Baochai immediately shook his head after hearing this: "Not to mention that a martyr girl does not serve her second husband, this marriage was given by the late emperor. Based on this, how can we talk about remarriage?"

"The late emperor has passed away after all."

Mrs. Wang quickly said: "Besides, this is a helpless move for us. As long as there are people in the palace to help us with the matter, and the people will not take action against the officials, this matter will be over."

At this point, she finally revealed her true purpose: "But we have to help your eldest sister get over this hurdle first."

It’s a shame she can take such a big detour!

Xue Baochai sneered secretly, with a look of concern on his face: "Didn't you say that Brother Jiao must come forward to be sure about this matter? Did Madam just negotiate this matter with Brother Jiao?"

"It's not that easy."

Mrs. Wang lamented and said helplessly: "You have also seen these days, those civil servants are eager to get rid of him and move on. At this juncture, he really does not want to cause trouble. Besides, the past several times have long since faded away.

I have been clean, and now I want to make things difficult for him - if there were not three girls here, he would probably be angry on the spot."

Xue Baochai also started to panic: "Then if Brother Jiao refuses to come forward, what should we do about this matter?"

"this……"

Mrs. Wang hesitated half-heartedly, then took Baochai's hand and said: "Because your mother was kind to him, and your mother and his mother were sisters, he has always been close to your family. If you are

If you are willing to come forward and offer some persuasion, maybe..."

After all, Mrs. Wang still didn't want to make things too clear. The idea of ​​such an excuse was already the result of her racking her brains.

This was not what Baochai expected, but it was also what she expected.

Therefore, he just pondered for a moment and then said solemnly: "For the sake of your Majesty, I will give it a try - but if it doesn't work, Madam, please don't blame me."

"No wonder, no wonder!"

Mrs. Wang felt like she had been pardoned, and thought that as long as she brought the two of them together, the matter would be 70% settled. She immediately patted her chest and promised: "Don't worry, as long as I can help your eldest sister get through this disaster, I just said

It counts for sure.”

"What are you talking about, madam? I just want to help."

Xue Baochai wanted to make some excuses, but Mrs. Wang was afraid that Jiao Shun would be impatient, so she grabbed her and said: "Good girl, you come with me back to the hut in Qingtang first, lest he can't wait and leave directly!"

Just like that, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dragged themselves outside.

Ying'er was talking to Caiyun. When she saw this, she hurriedly stood up to greet Baochai and winked at Baochai.

Baochai frowned slightly when she saw it, knowing that she must have done something unnecessary again, but it was not the time to care about it now, so she pretended not to see it and followed Mrs. Wang to the Qingtang thatched cottage.

…………

Jiao Shun drank a lot of tea in the living room and went to the toilet twice, but Mrs. Wang didn't come back for a long time, and he gradually became a little anxious.

Just as she was thinking about whether to send Caixia to inquire about whether there would be any drama today, she suddenly saw the door curtain raised, and Mrs. Wang led Xue Baochai in from the outside.

Jiao Shun was overjoyed and curious about how Mrs. Wang invited the people here. Was it really obvious that the carriage and horses were going to be pimped?

When Mrs. Wang saw him getting up to greet him, she hurriedly said, "Are you anxious, Chang Qing? I originally thought of going back as soon as I could, but who knew that your siblings also had something to say to you, so I was delayed for a while."

With that said, he turned aside to let Xue Baochai behind him.

Xue Baochai expressed his blessings generously and said sternly: "In addition to being able to protect this family, how can the empress not be Brother Jiao's future helper? If Brother Jiao can help her in times of need, it is expected that the empress will also return the favor of Cao Huanhuan.

Pay it forward!"

Upon hearing this, Jiao Shun and Mrs. Wang frowned at the same time.

Needless to say the reason why Jiao Shun frowned, Mrs. Wang did not expect that Xue Baochai would ask for such a serious request.

Of course, it would be best if it can succeed in this way.

But……

"Alas~"

Jiao Shun reacted quickly and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to help, it's just that I can't help. If I get annoyed by this..."

"Chang Qing!"

Mrs. Wang was afraid that he would run out of words, so she hurriedly stopped him and said: "Things are easy to discuss, easy to discuss."

After saying that, he pointed to the West Room Zen Room and said: "It's not good to talk about things in the palace outside. This is where I used to meditate and worship Buddha. It is the most pure place. Why don't we go inside and talk?"

Jiao Shun looked at Xue Baochai, raised his hand and said, "Sister, please go first?"

Baochai ducked slightly: "Brother Jiao should invite you first."

Mrs. Wang said: "Let's go together, let's go together!"

The three of them all understood each other tacitly, but no one was willing to stir up trouble.

But Mrs. Wang is definitely the most anxious one among them, so she is also the most explicit one.

As soon as she entered the door, she turned around and said, "By the way, there is no tea prepared in this room. I will bring some from outside."

Usually, even if the maid is not allowed to do this kind of thing, it should be done by Xue Baochai as the daughter-in-law. However, she did not give others a chance to object and rushed out of the meditation room, leaving this private space to Baochai.

With Jiao Shun.

Seeing the door being closed, Jiao Shun and Xue Baochai, who were originally on separate sides, immediately looked at each other.

Jiao Shun smiled and whispered: "Sister, are you trying to force her to expose the matter?"

Xue Baochai said nothing, acquiescing to Jiao Shun's guess.

Without saying anything, Jiao Shun quickly stepped forward and grabbed Baochai's arm.

Baochai was startled, and when she was about to struggle and call out, she saw him stopping there with a half-smile, showing no intention of further intruding on her. She couldn't help but was stunned again.

But soon she suddenly understood under Jiao Shun's playful eyes, and immediately turned her head to look in the direction of the window. When she saw that it was a thick glass window, she shouted outside without hesitation: "Madam, come quickly, madam."

come!"

Although it was said to be a shout, the sound was actually not very loud and could only be heard by outsiders.

Mrs. Wang had a ghost in her heart. Her face turned blue and red when she heard the noise. She clenched her fists but did not respond. Instead, she silently recited Amitabha.

But she wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but the commotion inside gradually became louder, and even the door of the room was hit hard. The bang frightened Mrs. Wang's face to pale.

Now that things have happened, she can accept whatever happens inside, but such a family scandal must never be spread out!

The same goes for this master, why don’t you know how to stop this little girl’s mouth?!

She hesitated for a moment, and there was another bang on the door, so she had no choice but to push open half of the door, probed her head and asked: "Baochai, what, what's wrong?"

Jiao Shun retracted his hand in a sullen voice, while Baochai looked like her hairpin was slanted and her lapel was in disarray. She rushed to the door with a blushing face and grabbed Mrs. Wang's sleeve, saying with tearful eyes: "Madam, he, he just...

Just now..."

She looked like she had been greatly wronged and humiliated, but she was too embarrassed to say it.

Mrs. Wang secretly screamed that she was wronged.

It seems that there was no real deviant behavior between the two of them on that day when it snowed heavily. Otherwise, Bao Yatou would not be like this.

When she thought that she had dyed her son green with her own hands, her heart felt like a knife twisting, and her originally cold heart softened.

At this time, I heard Jiao Shun chuckle and say: "Madam, don't worry, once my siblings and I have a good discussion and come up with a perfect plan, this matter may turn around."

As he spoke, he winked at her.

This is almost equivalent to a showdown.

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a moment, thinking that the arrow had to be fired when it was on the string. If it stopped midway, Baochai would be in trouble later!

So she gritted her teeth, broke away from Baochai's pull, and hardened her heart: "Well, you discuss it in a low voice, and I'll go outside first to give you some instructions, so that no one comes to disturb you."

"Mrs?!"

Xue Baochai showed an expression of disbelief and shock.

Mrs. Wang hid her face and ran away in shame when she saw her. Before leaving the house, she added sarcastically: "Don't worry, what I said before must be true!"

With that said, he closed the door again cruelly.

She covered her heart and leaned against the door, crying silently for a moment. Then she wiped away her tears and ran outside, finding an excuse to order Caixia Caiyun and others not to come near the main room.
