Chapter 741: Promise in Guining Province [Part 1]

After sending Jiao Shun away, Jia Baoyu returned to the old lady's courtyard and unexpectedly saw Xue Baochai, who had been invited by She Yue.

Although Xiren winked at the side, signaling Baoyu to seize the opportunity to get close to Baochai, Jia Baoyu, who had suffered too many cold receptions, was obviously a little stiff and uncomfortable. He laughed a few times, but he couldn't find the right one for the moment.

Opening remarks.

Since he didn't take the initiative to speak, Xue Baochai naturally just responded indifferently.

In fact, Xue Baochai was willing to come with She Yue not because he wanted to see a second evaluation, but just because he didn't want the conflict to intensify.

After all, women these days are naturally the weaker side. If they act too tough in front of their husbands, even if they are being reasonable, others will criticize them.

With Baochai's intelligence, she would naturally not let herself fall into such a situation, so her attitude has always been one of never leave. Although she is indifferent, she will not completely deny Baoyu a chance - even if the opportunity given is just a false one.

.

For example, when she came here this time, she didn't care about Baoyu's performance at all, because the news that Jia Baoyu had angrily cut the official document template had reached her ears a few days ago.

This kind of behavior, which is not only shameless but courageous, but gives up on oneself and vents anger on dead objects, naturally once again greatly disappointed Baochai - you know, this was just a short time after Jia Baoyu announced that he would change his past mistakes, study hard and make progress every day.

It's less than half a moon.

What made Baochai even more disappointed was that Jia Baoyu regretted it again the next day and called on the maids to puzzle together - although the maids were illiterate, they could still use words as patterns.

Not to mention such a capricious temper, which is hard to believe, just to mention how many tricks the maids around him have caused in the past few years? Doesn't he have an accurate estimate in his heart?

Unfortunately, he doesn't even know how to learn from it.

Although Baochai got the inside information of that night because of this, he still shook his head at Baoyu's unscrupulous approach.

If Baoyu didn't make such a fuss on the wedding day, although she would be disappointed with him, she would still find ways to try to change Baoyu, but now...

Tired, hurry up and destroy it!

"Bao, sister Bao."

Just when Xue Baochai was silently thinking about his thoughts, Jia Baoyu finally took the initiative to speak under Xiren's urging: "It's strange to say that the doctor just now was mistaken for his aunt by the old lady, and she kept talking..."

"Ahem!"

Hearing which pot he was not opening, Xiren hurriedly interrupted with two dry coughs, and then changed the subject and said: "Grandma, I just heard from She Yue that the wife of the in-laws is going back?"

No matter what other people call Baochai, Xiren changed her name extremely firmly - although she once fell in love with Baochai, between Baoyu and Baochai, she will undoubtedly choose Baoyu firmly.

Baochai glanced sideways at Xi Ren. In fact, now that things have happened, she is not so afraid of Lin Daiyu. If possible, she would even give Jia Baoyu to her.

It is a pity that this is a marriage ordered by the emperor. It does not mean that divorce cannot be reconciled, but a clear reason must be given - but once what happened at that time is revealed, Rongguo Mansion will undoubtedly be in disaster again, and Xue and Jia will

The family is tied together again.

Although there is now another Jiao family with greater potential, why aren't the Jiao family inextricably linked to Rongguo Mansion? If Rongguo Mansion suffered a catastrophe because of themselves, the Jiao family would still be willing to be Xue's

Do you rely on your family?

Xue Baochai was not sure, so she would never do this.

So she smiled calmly and said: "We have a big family over there, and no matter how much my mother loves me, it's not easy to live here permanently - in the next two days, it's probably time to go back to Zijin Street."

In fact, Aunt Xue was not in a hurry to leave. After all, she had lived in Rongguo Mansion for several years before, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with staying a few more days.

But in the past two days, Baochai persuaded her to return to her old house on Zijin Street as soon as possible on the pretext that her brother would become suspicious if time passed. What Jia Baoyu did on the wedding day has been kept secret by the Xue family until now.

I was worried about Xue Pan mainly because I was afraid that he would do something irrational in anger.

Although Aunt Xue went to the Rongguo Mansion the next day and successfully blocked Mrs. Wang's pressing advances for Baochai, the two parties have now made a preliminary contract - first to see Baoyu's performance next year, and then to do anything.

Decision - If Aunt Xue continues to stay here, it will make the Rongguo Mansion feel that the Xue family is unreasonable and unforgiving.

Therefore, letting Aunt Xue leave at the right time will help alleviate her dilemma in Rongguo Mansion.

At this time, Jia Baoyu finally realized belatedly that it seemed inappropriate for him to mention Sister Lin's mother in front of Sister Bao, so he hurriedly followed the topic raised by Xiren and said: "Then wait

Aunt...when your mother-in-law is leaving, please be sure to let me know so that I can give her a ride."

After hearing this, Xiren's eyes flashed for some reason.

Xue Baochai nodded slightly and replied: "That's natural."

Then he said that since the assessment was cancelled, he would go back to help his mother pack her bags after seeing the old lady.

"Then I'll see my sister off."

Baoyu felt as if he had been granted amnesty after hearing this. Although he wanted to get close to Sister Bao, he instinctively did not want to face Sister Bao's seemingly polite manner, but in fact she was repulsive.

Baochai did not refuse, but when he led Ying'er to the gate of the courtyard, he suddenly turned around and said: "I still have a lot of letters from 'Miss Su'. If the second master wants to read them, I will send them to you."

past."

Miss Su’s handwriting?

Jia Baoyu was a little confused at first, and then he remembered the letters that seemed to be written under the pseudonym of 'Lin Daiyu'.

In fact, he had wanted to ask for it several times before, but every time the words came to his lips, he didn't have the courage to speak. Now Baochai took the initiative to send those letters over, and Jia Baoyu was naturally very happy. He opened his mouth and was about to agree, but suddenly

The attacker pulled him from behind.

Jia Baoyu's words suddenly stuck on his lips. He understood that Xiren hoped that he could show that he didn't care about Sister Lin in front of Sister Bao, or at least make some choices, so that he could better win back Sister Bao.

but……

How could he ignore the clues left by sister Lin?

Especially since he was recently forced to embark on the most annoying official career, he missed Sister Lin even more when he was depressed.

So I refused and couldn't say anything.

I wanted to agree, but felt it was very inappropriate.

Seeing Baoyu's hesitant and hesitant look, Xue Baochai was not surprised at all.

This time she took the initiative to give those letters to Baoyu, not because she had any intention of testing Baoyu, but because she thought that after her mother left, she would have to take another insurance measure to prevent Baoyu from acting like in the dream.

Although this possibility is slim, Baochai has always hoped to eliminate all hidden dangers - but unfortunately he is also cautious about success and failure. He missed Jiao Changqing's uncut jade and instead regarded a fake jade as a treasure.

It's too far off topic. In short, Baochai gave those letters to Jia Baoyu in order to rekindle his attachment to Sister Lin, so that he would naturally not be harassed so frequently.

Of course, even though she thought so, she saw with her own eyes that Baoyu was indecisive, wanting but not daring to get it. The disappointment in her heart still accumulated, and then she just thought that Baoyu had acquiesced: "Then I will do it in a moment.

Have someone send him to Yihongyuan."

After saying that, without waiting for Baoyu to react, he took Ying'er and left.

"Second Master!"

As soon as Baochai left, Xiren stomped his feet angrily, clenched his fists and punched Baoyu's shoulders moderately twice, complaining: "What a good opportunity, why did you just... Oh, as long as you are with grandma,

It's as good as ever, why would it be difficult for you to read those letters again?"

Baoyu said coquettishly: "But, if that is really the letter written by Sister Lin, maybe we can find a way to find her. What if we delay it for a long time and she leaves?"

He was a little stumbled at first, but then his eyes sparkled with excitement. He wished that Baochai could send the letter immediately so that he could verify the authenticity and carefully study the clues in it.

If Sister Lin could be brought back, losing Sister Baochai would not be completely unacceptable - at least, that's what he thought before losing Baochai completely.

When Xiren saw Baoyu's appearance, he was too lazy to say anything else. If Baoyu had listened to her advice, he would not have ended up in this situation.

After calling She Yue and asking her to take good care of Baoyu, he found an excuse to escape and went directly to Qingtang thatched cottage.

After meeting Mrs. Wang, she first told the news that Aunt Xue would be leaving soon.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. Every time she saw Aunt Xue these days, she, the elder sister, couldn't hold her head up. Besides, now that Aunt Xue is gone, the young couple will have less barriers and more things to do.

room.

Although unlike Xiren, she always believed that her son would have a bright future, but as the saying goes, it would be best if the couple could get back together in advance.

"Mrs."

At this time, Xiren reminded again: "This matter may be a good opportunity."

"good chance?"

Mrs. Wang wondered: "What good opportunity?"

Xiren said: "Originally, according to the rules, we should return to Ning Province to get married three days after the wedding, but because the in-laws' wife came to our place in advance, we didn't mention the matter of Guining. In my opinion, why don't we just go with the flow and let the two of us go along with the situation?

Are you going back to your parents' home with me and grandma to visit the bride?"

Mrs. Wang was still puzzled: "What kind of good opportunity is this?"

"I heard that grandma kept it secret because she was worried that Uncle Xue would be upset. In this way, when the second master and grandma arrived there, they would not be able to show off too much. Then they would naturally be able to

…”

Hearing Xiren's explanation, Mrs. Wang's eyes suddenly lit up, and she thought that this was really a good opportunity, and it was so logical and reasonable that Baochai had no way to object.

only……

She said with some concern: "If Wen Long knew what Baoyu had done, I'm afraid..."

"Just bring more people. Besides, grandma always takes the overall situation into consideration and will definitely not let Uncle Xue cause trouble."

Mrs. Wang thought the same thing. If she had been in the same situation as Baochai, she would have become unbearable, but Baochai could still remain calm and would never let Xue Pan do anything irrational.

action.

So she finally made the decision: "Then I'll do what you want. I'll discuss this matter with my wife later."

"No!"

But Xiren hurriedly opened his mouth to stop him: "If grandma gets the news, she might make some arrangements in advance. It would be best to tell her before leaving, so that grandma won't have time to deal with it."

When Mrs. Wang thought about it, this was indeed the truth, and she drew a picture of joy at that moment: "Thank you for being here, don't worry, when this matter is settled, no one will be able to treat you badly."

This was what Xiren was waiting for, but he said: "This servant only hopes that the second master and grandma will be in harmony."

…………

at the same time.

Baochai also told Aunt Xue that Baoyu would come to see her off when she left.

Aunt Xue sighed after hearing this: "How do you think this can end? We can't just keep going like this, right?"

She has a soft temper and feels that it is natural for a woman to rely on and obey a man. Therefore, although she is indignant at Baoyu's actions, she still instinctively feels that the two will eventually reconcile.

Baochai had heard a lot of similar words from her recently, but she just smiled and didn't answer.

She actually has Mu Qiang's gene in her heart. Otherwise, she would not have written the poem "The good wind, relying on its strength, will send me to the blue clouds." But the problem is that she is now completely disappointed with Baoyu, and she has a person like Jiao Shun as a comparison.

, but how can you be willing to be soft to Baoyu?

Seeing that her daughter didn't respond, Aunt Xue couldn't help but sigh.

She once thought that as long as her children's marriages were settled, she would have no regrets, but who would have thought that her son would marry a dominatrix and come home, but her daughter would be entrusted with a wrong person.

In this year alone, she had been upset more often and to a greater extent than in the entire previous half of her life. Fortunately, she had someone like Jiao Shun by her side, who knew both cold and heat, otherwise she might have gotten sick early.

Alas~

I really should have...

But it's too late to think about this now. The most important thing is to find a way to reconcile Baochai and Baoyu - of course, the premise is to make a three-part agreement to make Baoyu give up those ridiculous ideas and live a life wholeheartedly for progress.

But Baoyu's performance these days has been really disappointing, making it hard for people to expect anything from him.

Since Aunt Xue lived with Baochai, she naturally knew that Baoyu cut off the official document template and regretted doing the puzzle the next day.

Compared with Baochai, she has an extra layer of anger. Chang Qing obviously takes into account the friendship between all parties - and naturally he has a part in it - so he spares no effort to teach Baoyu.

It’s just that he didn’t appreciate it, and he ruined what he took time out of his busy schedule to prepare!

For a moment, Aunt Xue even wanted Jiao Shun to stop caring about this matter.

But after all, this is related to the rest of my daughter's life.

Alas~

Why did I end up with such a son-in-law?!

That night, Aunt Xue lay in bed and thought about it for a long time, and finally made up her mind. When she returned to Zijin Street, she hung up the lantern on the back wall and invited Jiao Shun to her home to discuss it.

Let's see how this matter is resolved.
