Chapter 769: Aunt Xue's Mind

"Going to a village outside the city for vacation?" When Daiyu heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Although she seemed to be the mistress of the back house, she was only twelve or thirteen years old after all, and she had a natural yearning for playing. Although she didn't nod when she heard her brother's suggestion, she was absolutely convinced in her heart.

You must know that since the brother and sister came to the capital, although they have lived a wealthy life, they have rarely been so relaxed and comfortable.

Hearing her brother's arrangement, Daiyu didn't care that it was still the middle of the night, and excitedly twirled her fingers and said: "Then I will post tomorrow and invite the three sisters of the Jia family, plus Miss Xue, to come."

There are Miss Li, Miss Zhang, and by the way, Feng Yanei’s sister is also a good girl..."

In her excitement, she ordered a dozen girls at once, all of whom she had met after coming to Beijing.

Among them, Miss Li is Li Long's sister, Miss Zhang is Zhang Wannian's daughter, and Feng Yanei is naturally Feng Ziying.

Several other girls also came to Lin's house as guests and got to know Daiyu.

Daiyu was beautiful, demure, well-spoken, and known as "Li Qingzhao of the Great Zhou Dynasty". Naturally, many girls were willing to associate with her.

Therefore, in the past year, Daiyu has gotten to know a lot of people.

Hearing Daiyu nodding her friend enthusiastically, Lin Zhao laughed and interrupted her train of thought: "Sister, let alone the cold weather, there are a few parents who are willing for the girl to come out, even if their parents agree

, plus the maids and wives, I’m afraid there won’t be seventy or eighty people? Although our hot spring resort is very large and can accommodate a lot of people, but with so many people going together, what’s the point of talking about a vacation?”

The maids next to him, including Lingge, also laughed.

Daiyu's face turned red, and the beauty under the lamp looked even more beautiful. She said angrily, "Brother, too. Talking about these things in the middle of the night, I'm so excited that I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep."

"My sister is in good health and can't sleep. Just make up for it when the time comes. According to me, just invite the three sisters from the Jia family and Miss Xue this time. I only called two or three friends here, plus

Baoyu Xue Pan is included, so the two families can rest assured."

Apart from Baoyu, Xue Pan, and Sun Shaozong, who must be invited, there are not many people worthy of Lin Zhao's invitation.

When he was in Yangzhou, he often went out hunting with his former subordinates such as Gu Haiquan, Han Wenchong, etc. But now he is a third-rank imperial guard, and several of his subordinates are also in high positions. Although they often get together to drink, they go out like this.

I'm afraid I won't be able to take a few days off.

Everyone is in the same yamen and they are all in the core class. If a lot of people leave, wouldn't the entire Jinyiwei yamen be paralyzed?

Besides, since I am the capital, these brothers below me are here to support myself, so I might as well not greet them.

After some calculation in my mind, I heard the watchman's voice outside and knew that it was already very late, so I smiled and said: "Okay, my plan here will take a day or two to be completed. Let's go and rest now, sister.

You and I have been chatting for a long time, and it’s time to go and rest. No matter how excited you are, Grandma Rong is too old to resist."

Daiyu smiled slightly and left with everyone.

Lin Zhao looked at their figures entering, then turned around and looked at the four candles. He smiled slightly, and the four candles were extinguished.

He smiled at Lin Fu who was hiding in the check-in room and said, "Okay, it's been a bit cold these days. You don't have to stay up late to follow me. You're in your forties or fifties, but you can't compare with me after all."

Lin Fu was moved when he saw his master being so considerate, and he quickly bent down and agreed.



On the second day, Lin Zhao went to Jinyiwei to take charge.

Daiyu took Xichun and took a bus to Zijin Street.

Because after Daiyu and Baochai met, although their status was very different, they felt that each other's character, appearance, conversation and knowledge were extraordinary, and they felt a vague sympathy for each other, so they often exchanged letters.

Therefore, Daiyu knew that Baochai had returned to Xue's house on Zijin Street in the past two days to take care of her mother and brother. After all, the weather was getting cold. Baochai, a sensible person, did not want to have fun in the Grand View Garden by herself in the cold weather, so she could help her brother cook at home.

For business, that's great too.

Zijin Street, Xue Mansion, Yijingju.

Yijingju is Baochai's small courtyard, located in the northwest of Xue Mansion, next to the garden next to it, making it convenient for the Xue family girls to play here.

Going up to the west room, Baochai asked Ying'er to get some snacks to entertain Daiyu and Xichun who came to visit: "This is made according to the recipe passed down by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Although it is not unusual, it tastes good. You two can try it."

Bar!"

Xichun glanced twice and said to Baochai: "Sister Bao, this one is yellow and that one is red, they look sweet and must be delicious!"

Baochai smiled and said: "Fourth sister has always had a quiet temper. After spending two days with Lord Lin, she has become more and more like a female official. If you like it, then eat more and take the prescription back later."

Xichun's maid had already entered the painting, and Daiyu's maid Lingge helped the two girls clean their hands. After hearing what Xichun said, Daiyu also became curious, picked up a thumb-sized snack, put it to her mouth and took a bite.

He smiled and praised: "It's really good!"

After eating, Daiyu wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said to Baochai: "Sister Bao and I hit it off immediately and exchanged letters. We call ourselves sisters. If Sister Bao calls me the head of the county, wouldn't it be a stranger to me?"

Baochai smiled slightly and said, "That's what my sister said."

Daiyu nodded and said to Baochai: "I heard that my sister has been helping Brother Xue handle business during this period. She must be exhausted, right? I asked my brother to find two good Korean ginseng."

Baochai thanked her hurriedly and said with a smile: "Actually, I am not tired during this time. My brother has already started, and there are not many people who need my help. What's more, it is freezing today, and the guys are not willing to come to the door at this time. Fortunately,

Give them a few days off."

After hearing this, Xichun immediately became happy: "That's good, that's good, let's go to the hot springs together!"

She is still a child after all.

"What hot spring?" Baochai was a little surprised.

"Sister Lin's family has a village in Zhongnan Mountain, and I heard that it also has hot springs! Cousin Lin has finished the emperor's official duties, so it's natural to take a few days off. Everyone has agreed to go to Zhongnan Mountain to play in the village. I'm here today.

I came here specially to invite Sister Baochai!" Xichun said happily.

Although Xichun now lives in Lin Mansion, she is not alone.

Because the official documents from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Rites alarmed Jia Jing again, Jia Zhen gritted her teeth and took out tens of thousands of taels of silver and gave two shops to Xichun. Daiyu helped Xichuan invest in several shops and also invited

Several Jinyiwei family members became shareholders.

Therefore, the shopkeepers and clerks in those shops were trembling with fear and did not dare to have other thoughts.

Therefore, today's Xichun is much freer than welcoming the spring and exploring the spring, so my personality is becoming more and more cheerful.

Baochai looked happy after hearing this, but then frowned, lowered his head slightly, and did not respond.

Xichun didn't notice anything strange about Baochai, and continued: "I plan to stay there for three or two days, so I can prepare my luggage and clothes in these two days!"

Daiyu saw Baochai's expression and was slightly surprised. She didn't understand why Baochai was so hesitant. But in her heart, she really had the young master of Rongguo Mansion, so she wanted to avoid suspicion?

It's just, it's not necessary.

At this time, the main room in the inner courtyard of the Xue family.

Aunt Xue sat on the chair, thinking about the two people she had just met, Daiyu and Xichun. One was quiet and lovely, the other was charming and lively. Their appearance was the best choice. No matter where they were born, they would be worthy of her.

My precious son Pan'er.

However, Aunt Xue also knew that she could only think in her heart.

Because she knew that the status of the two of them greatly exceeded that of the Xue family.

It is said that King Xue Shi of Jia is one of the four major families in Jinling, but in fact, the Jia family has a family with two princes, and now there are concubines and queens in the palace, and the Wang family now has Wang Ziteng, the governor of nine provinces, and the Shi family now has a family with two princes,

In terms of status, they far surpassed their Xue family.

Pan'er is now far away from the gang of friends and associates with officials and officials like Lin Zhao and Feng Ziying, but in the final analysis, he is just an imperial businessman.

It's enough to be friends with the government officials and officials, but when it comes to getting married, that's far from it.

However, my own Baochai is a very good person. In terms of appearance, mind, and knowledge, she is the best choice. Even noble people like County Lord Lin like to make friends with her, and she is no better than the empress in the palace.

Difference.

But Aunt Xue is not like Mrs. Wang, who only wants to send girls to the palace for glory and wealth.

Although she seemed to be led by Mrs. Wang, she still understood in her heart.

No matter how powerful the person in the palace is, Pan'er will be of no use when he is captured by the Jin Yiwei.

If Baochai can marry into a good family and find a suitable husband, that will be the blessing of Amitabha and Bodhisattva.

Speaking of a wishful husband, is there anyone better and more suitable than the one from the Lin family?
