Chapter 168

Lin Daiyu had a grudge against Xue Baochai in the first few years. Most of the servants said that Daiyu was not as good as Baochai. She was mainly in dealing with people. Lin Daiyu was very angry at that time and often sarcastic when she met. For example, when Xue Pan made a big fuss about the Xue family, Baochai cried and swollen face, and tears were still there when she entered the Grand View Garden. Lin Daiyu wanted to sarcastically say a few words. For example, Li Xiangyuan ate a terrible goose paws, and Lin Daiyu said to Xueyan, "If you don't listen to my words, you will listen to her (Zijuan) words, just like an imperial edict." This is a sarcastic sense that Baoyu listened to Baochai's words "will eat wine warmly", Lin Daiyu deserves to be "a more sensible than a dry heart". She doesn't react quickly, and she really can't hear it.

There are countless things like this, Lin Daiyu is guarding against Xue Baochai. Because she and Baoyu were originally close, the knot between the two was not until Xue Baochai "resolved her doubts" in the thirteenth year that she let go of her past grudges.

So now Lin Daiyu not only does not ridicule Xue Baochai, but also has a little more respect. People always change according to time and place, and Lin and Xue are no exception.

"When Miss Shi came, it was a room of joy. Mr. Cong had never talked to her." Xiangling asked Baochai's words with a letter and said in her mouth.

Xiangling usually follows Baochai in Hengwu Garden in Grand View Garden. Because of that bet, Xue Pan has less contact with her and is influenced by the poetry and books environment. She has a bit of a dull personality, "Dai Xiangling is a pomegranate skirt". Therefore, she joined the poetry club and became a teacher of Daiyu. After careful consideration day and night, she finally made a commendable "the essence is to cover up the problem of materials, and the shadow is from the beauty to the soul is from the cold", which is also Xiangling herself.

"Dai Xiangling, Han Xiangyun, you two are both talking too much." Xue Baochai was so annoyed by them. Compared to herself, they seemed innocent and lively and didn't know much about the world. Shi Xiangyun, a daughter of the Marquis, didn't know what it was. Xiangling also turned around and left when she treated Baoyu's concern for Xue Pan's wife.

"Baoyu is happier than him. At least the old lady sent people to greet him day and night. Last autumn, my second uncle asked me to study poorly. Baoyu's temperament, who hates fame, is becoming less and less willing to study, and makes him happy. But if my second uncle comes back, he will always be anxious." Lin Daiyu analyzed: "Brother Cong is different. You are the most familiar with the second sister."

"There is always a character named "女" and "女" is born in the vassal state. No matter whether a man or a woman, it is always much more difficult. Nowadays, the official family is married, and I am also born in the vassal state. In addition to the monthly routine, the eldest wife does not give a penny. Let's look at the third sister, how annoyed about Aunt Zhao's grandmother..." Jia Yingchun sighed in a low voice.

"Brother Cong is so knowledgeable, enlightened, and progressive. Men, regardless of legitimate and illegitimate, can always go out and live. There is a way of living. According to you, whoever has no worries about things, will only cover up the external story. If you really can be transcendent, indifferent, and everything will not linger in your heart, the wonderful jade from the Changcui Temple cannot be." Xue Baochai said.

When Daiyu talked about Baoyu not listening to the advice, Baochai felt quite disappointed. Who else could persuade Baoyu besides her? Baochai and Xiren are almost the same type of people. Qing is Daiying and Xi is the deputy of Chai, but it is different in the end. Xiren's persuasion is to care for Baoyu, just be perfunctory to the master and wife, and do not require an official, or even to be tired of studying. Baochai's rationality is to take career as a priority. Once, Jia Baoyu persuaded him in public and turned against him and left, making Bao sister anxious. This is her. Others are afraid that they will hold grudges. Baochai and Baoyu cannot become close friends after all.

What Lin Daiyu wants is Jia Baoyu's sincerity, and what Xue Baochai wants is Mrs. Baoyu's status.

As early as before the Xue family entered Beijing, Aunt Xue made a big fuss that Baochai's golden locks would be matched with jade, so wouldn't it be a way out for a good marriage of gold and jade?

There are two ways to put Xue Baochai. One is to marry Baoyu. Baoyu is favored by the old lady and a concubine sister, who can maintain the wealthy status of the Xue family.

The Xue family was rich but not noble, and the ancestors were the Zhongshu Sheren. What official was the Zhongshu Sheren? This was just a small official. Since the Ming Dynasty, Zhongshu Sheren, Shang Bao Si Shaoqing and other positions were all Beijing officials who did not need to be a Jinshi. Some big bosses could arrange relatives to come in and could not control military and national affairs. The court was concerned about politics. Other officials had titles, and there were no ones. At present, Jia Baoyu was the safest. Aunt Xue was a cunning man and had a bit of foresight, which was to teach her children without any reason.

The second candidate was Jia Cong who participated in the imperial examination. However, Jia Cong had almost no status at home, and Baochai didn't know his future, although Jia Cong's idea of ​​entering the world was consistent with her.

Baochai talked about Jia Cong's understanding of the world, Lin Daiyu remembered the funeral in Yangzhou, and remained silent. Qingwen glanced around and her almond eyes turned: "It's sixteenth today, I just happened to appear, she has to come back. Could you ask her about the private carving?"

"That's right, my brother and sister thought we were here to play?" Lin Daiyu made fun of her.

Qingwen really couldn't do anything to her. She was so anxious that Jia Yingchun held Qingwen's shoulder-cutting: "Don't care about Pin'er's mouth. She laughed at everyone and was unscheming in her heart."

"When it comes to not planning, Sister Yun is even more serious. When she entered the door that day, she said to Baoqin: Don't go to the second wife's house. The girls in the room are all trying to harm us. Listen, is this a child?" Xue Baochai joked everyone and looked at Qingwen and said, "Now Qingwen is also a little housekeeper. The male lead is outside and the female lead is inside. He finally has a face. No wonder he tells you everything."

Lin Daiyu touched the porcelain vase where the flowers were arranged. Before she could feel lost, she saw Jia Cong rushing in with a hot sweat on her face: "Is this a welcome to me?"

"You think? Others don't want to do it. How is the juren's exam? I'm polite." Qingwen came out and took off her coat and asked Xiangling to fetch water. Xiangling said seriously: "The girls are here to ask me about the matter of private carving."

Jia Cong went into the inner room to clean it, wipe it clean, and came out and said, "If you don't say it, I almost forgot about this. When the results are released, I will go out and take a look."

"You made the Shanhai Alliance, isn't Shanhai Bookstore yours?" Lin Daiyu put down the vase, and the azalea and peonies were well inserted and well-tailed. In ancient times, flower arrangement was a science, bottles, water sources, tailoring, and monographs were discussed.

"If it were mine, could my family tolerate me? I have sent the supervisor to accept it long ago, so I will not be named." Jia Cong sat down and said, "If you don't take the lead, you will not be the master."

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "It's better not to be deaf or dumb, and not to be the head of the family."

Xue Baochai asked him if he remembered how he wrote it in the exam room. Jia Cong wrote a few sentences. Xue Baochai savored it carefully and said in surprise: "It is better than before, especially the last chapter titled "By using clothes and silk, you can know the heart of the old man." "The spirit of the elderly is still healthy, and the prison is a prison for sacrificing and wise, and it is very popular."

[Note: The reason why I change the vest and open it is to survive, I get two guarantees. If I hate it, I will scold you.

In addition, my mother, who has been away from her for more than ten years, suddenly came back and her parents' home to make trouble. She had to go through legal procedures. I would like to remind her that she might stop updating.]
