Chapter 200 B Scroll Mother and Son, Mother and Daughter, Brother and Sister
It's rare for Aunt Xue's family to come, so naturally they want to save food.
After the meal, it was inevitable that the family members would talk about their family affairs together, and they didn't return to Lixiangyuan until the third quarter of Shenchu.
After returning to his own home, Xue Pan immediately regained his vigor, and he no longer had the sleepy look he had when he was at his uncle's house, which made Aunt Xue and Baochai frown endlessly.
"Wenlong also knows that he is now in Jingzhong. Your uncle is right. We should act cautiously. Then Xiangling will follow your sister. You don't have any other thoughts."
Although she felt sorry for her son, Aunt Xue also knew that her brother had always said what he said, and it was for the benefit of her son.
Now that the whole family dare not even go back to Jinling, living in Beijing, this life is not easy.
Xue Pan was annoyed for a while.
This Xiangling was born so beautiful and handsome, she followed her sister along the way, she was looking forward to arriving in the middle of the capital, to find a good day to move into the house, but unexpectedly, she was beaten by uncle's stick.
But if he wanted to defy his uncle's order, he dared not.
The Jinling matter has not yet been settled, and Xue Pan is still a little afraid when he thinks that he may be imprisoned one day.
Who would have thought that the son of the Feng family was actually the son of a squire, and fortunately his family had long since fallen and had no relatives, otherwise this matter would have been even more difficult.
This year's ups and downs still made Xue Pan realize that there are some people who can't be provoked.
Xue's family used to be so beautiful in Jinling City, but now that they changed to another magistrate, the whole family was so scared that they ran away.
This made Xue's family feel more and more that the current situation is different, and their family's downfall is unsatisfactory.
"Mother, my uncle asked about my younger sister today, and said that entering the palace is like a 'living dead'. I heard that means that I don't agree with my younger sister's election, but what about the eldest daughter of my aunt's family?"
Don't think that Xue Pan is a fool with his name, but he is not stupid about some things, and his memory is quite solid.
Aunt Xue and Baochai's faces changed slightly.
Of course they heard what Wang Ziteng said very clearly.
Especially the sentence that all concubines of the Great Zhou Dynasty came from a poor family, followed by the sentence that the current emperor never likes Wu Xun, which also means that even if a daughter enters the palace of a Wu Xun family like Jia Shiwang Xue, there will be no what a good result.
It's just that why the eldest daughter of the Jia family wants to enter the palace again?
Even though there is still some difference between being a female history and entering the palace, but now the eldest girl is afraid that it is time to leave the palace, but now there is no news.
It is also fortunate that my daughter has no intention of being elected, but is just looking for an excuse to go north to Beijing.
But today, my elder brother obviously pays more attention to Baochai than Xue Pan. Even though there is a reason why my son is not good enough, Aunt Xue still feels a little different here.
"And mother, uncle treats younger sister differently today. Could it be that he wants to find a good family for younger sister?"
Xue Dafool's next sentence made Xue Baochai's face blush, and at the same time, it also moved the hearts of Aunt Xue, mother and daughter.
Wang Ziteng's unusual attention cannot be concealed from others, and there seems to be no other explanation except this one.
Baochai has already turned 12 years old. According to the practice of the era of the Great Zhou Dynasty, marriage can be considered after reaching [-] years old. It does not mean that you need to get married, but you can consider the issue of marriage partner.
Families like the Xue family are well-known families at any rate, it is certain that marriage is not a casual matter, if you want to find a satisfactory family, you need to carefully consider it.
It is normal to spend a year or two. When Baochai turns 14, he can basically consider when to get married.
According to the regulations of the Dazhou side, the age of marriage for a woman must not be younger than 14 years old, but the convention is that it is best to be around 16 years old, and if it exceeds, it is a little older.
So generally speaking, ladies will not get married when they are over 20 years old. Basically, if they are over 20 years old, they have some problems and it is difficult to get married.
There are not so many restrictions on men, except for the minimum age of 14, there are not many other constraints, but generally speaking, it is better not to exceed 20 years old.
Seeing that her daughter was a little shy, she was afraid that her son would say something inappropriate again, Aunt Xue hurriedly said: "In short, your uncle will not harm you. A good family, and that's a good thing, too..."
"Mother, my daughter is still young..." Xue Baochai didn't want to say too much at first, but she was afraid that her mother's words would be too explicit.
"Mother, this Baoyu runs to our courtyard all day long, do you think uncle wants to make friends..."
Xue, who was sitting on the side with his big head, suddenly said this on his own.
"I see that Baoyu is about the same as me. He can't read books. He hangs around in ethnology all day long, and he is no better than me. Why does everyone praise Baoyu, but he says no when he sees me? "
Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai's faces darkened, and they were a little touched.
The son (elder brother) is his own good.
In the past few days, the aunt, sister-in-law Zhu, sister-in-law Lian, second sister, third sister, and fourth sister who came to Lixiangyuan all praised Baoyu in every way. Except for that sister Lin who rarely commented, everyone else inevitably wanted to Mention my brother.
They all said that it would be all right for my brother to be like Baoyu, even Aunt Xue and Baochai could only echo Baoyu's benefits, but it was a bit unpleasant to hear too much in my heart.
In order to prevent Xue Pan from wandering around, the family simply let him go to the Jia family school to hang out. They never thought that the family school is not a place to study after going here for a day. If so, it is better to be at home. .
Ask him why it is not the place to study, but he can't say one, two, three, just say that it is a place where you can come when you want to come in and out, I am afraid that you can't read books.
However, under Aunt Xue's strict persecution, Xue Pan did not go too far, and still went there from time to time, but now he gradually became familiar with the people in the East Mansion, which made Aunt Xue worry.
It would be a lie to say that Aunt Xue had no intention of getting Jia and Xue's family married, even Baochai vaguely knew some of her mother's thoughts.
Now the decline of the Xue family is becoming more and more obvious, especially if his brother is acting like this. If he continues like this, the Xue family will really reveal its true colors in less than ten years.
Along the way, from Songjiang to Yangzhou, and then to the capital, the family's livelihood was unsustainable, blood loss, and some of them were taken over by some rascals, and they owed them money And wages, many industries have completely lost.
But the family doesn't have a backbone, and the elder brother doesn't care about anything except banquets and joy.
It seems that Erfang has rarely seen people, and it is said that they are running a business in Shandong.
Therefore, those who still have room for recovery can only watch the silver turn into water.
Now that my elder brother had an accident in Jinling, if he had to deal with it, he would have to stay outside for at least two or three years to avoid the limelight.
Here in Jingzhong, if it is a daily business, there is no problem, but the Xue family in Jingzhong only has some ordinary business, which is not as good as Jinling's many connections. It can be said that apart from the uncle and aunt's family, there are no other relatives. acquaintance.
It is said that the two cousins of my uncle's family are also worthless.
The eldest cousin has already been married, and even took five or six concubines, but he played roles in the theater all day long. It is said that there are three concubines who were born in the opera troupe Xiaodan, and it is also said to be a "good story" in the capital. ".
And the second cousin is even in the Imperial College, hunting, drinking and feasting outside all day long, or just wandering around the building and fighting dogs and crickets.
It is said that my aunt also went to several families to propose marriage on purpose, but was declined by others, or she was only willing to marry a concubine daughter, which made my aunt very angry, but there was nothing she could do.
Everyone in the capital city knows the basics, everyone knows what your son is like, and you don't plan to fool anyone.
Being able to marry a concubine is all about looking at the face of your Jiedushi family, otherwise, as usual, even concubines would not want to marry you.
At first, I thought that this Jia Jiabao was born with a jade title, and I was afraid that he was a good-natured person, but after coming here, although he felt that this brother Bao's appearance was not bad, but he always felt that something was missing.
Especially when his son said this, even Aunt Xue felt that her elder sister's son was a bit difficult to support the family business.
"Brother, don't say such things in front of others. Brother Bao is just young and hasn't made a decision yet. After two years, he will go to the academy to study."
Baochai was deeply afraid that her elder brother would speak freely, so no matter what he said at home, if it was overheard in Jia's mansion, it might cause a rift between the two families.
"I also know that the academy has to endure hardships. I spend my days in this family school. I think it will be difficult for Brother Bao to bear it, but Baoyu is indeed handsome and kind. I talk to him, and he is also the same. Extra polite,..." As if remembering something, Xue Pan grinned and said, "He also said that he would buy me a drink some other day."
Aunt Xue looked at her son's ignorant appearance, but occasionally she could say something that seemed reasonable, and she blamed herself in her heart. If she could have strictly disciplined her son back then, maybe her son would not be as mature as he is now. The Demon King of Confusion.
"By the way, sister, even though Xiangling has been following you, he belongs to me. Now uncle wants me to be with you, but I don't want to."
Xue Pan suddenly remembered something, "I also know that I am now a bereaved dog. Everyone can't see it, and I can't compare to people like Baoyu. Forget it, I will go to my own life. If something really happens in the future, It's just that one person should do the work and one person should be responsible, so that mother and younger sister won't be hurt,..."
These words made Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai's eyes turn red, and Aunt Xue reprimanded him sharply, forbidding him to say such unlucky words again.
But Xue Pan didn't care, and swaggered out the door, and went happily with Jia Zhen and Jia Rong of the East Mansion.
