Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

"Sister!" Aunt Xue, with a droopy head, found Mrs. Wang.

A look of apology.

Mrs. Wang was in Baoyu's room, watching Xiren feeding him. She felt very uncomfortable ever since she tore up Xue Baochai's birth date and horoscope.

He is a precious jewel, the favored son of heaven, yet he is despised by others.

She could never have imagined it.

And it happened in front of Lady Jia, which made her feel ashamed and upset.

Now that her younger sister was coming, Mrs. Wang didn't want to pay any attention to her.

What are you here for?

Aren’t you ashamed?

Seeing that her sister ignored her, Aunt Xue had to force a smile again, and even reached out and took a glass of water from the table for Mrs. Wang.

Madam Wang turned her head and glanced at her, "Don't show off your cunningness in front of me."

"What else do you want to do?"

"If it's about what happened before, and you've gotten what you wanted, don't come and hurt my feelings again."

"Sister! That's not what I meant!" After saying this, she hesitated a little, with an embarrassed look on her face.

Mrs. Wang sighed. This sister always made trouble but never cleaned it up.

So he said to her in a gentle voice, "You don't have to say it, I know."

"Are you afraid that I won't let you live in the Jia family?"

"Don't worry, you can stay here if you want, right?"

"Bao girl is my niece anyway. In the future, she can find a good family as the cousin of the Duke's Mansion."

"No, no, no..." Aunt Xue shook her head repeatedly.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was glaring at her, she finally gave in.

I slapped myself hard.

"Sister, please forgive me. I just bumped into someone and I am mentally ill."

"You also know that I have been too busy lately. I can't sleep well and I am often in a trance."

"So what happened just now was my fault."

At this point, she burst into tears, filled with shame, anger, and pain.

She saw that Madam Wang finally looked at her straight in the eye, and her face was full of surprise.

Aunt Xue continued with a sad face, "I just came to my senses when I got home."

"Sister, I agreed to Baoyatou marrying Baoyu. It's not Baoyu who is confused, it's me who is confused."

Mrs. Wang looked at Aunt Xue's face and was not surprised.

Instead, he looked at her suspiciously, "Are you serious? You're not forcing it?"

"You should know that the old immortal and the old lady know about this matter."

"You are so inconsistent, it's unbelievable!"

Aunt Xue shook her head repeatedly, "Sister, don't worry, I won't force you, it's me who is marrying above my station."

"Look how smart and talented my brother is."

Jia Baoyu, who was eating at the side, suddenly overturned the bowl and said, "I don't want it! I don't want it..."

The leftover food was scattered on the ground, and Xiren was busy cleaning it up.

Aunt Xue saw this, her face full of bitterness, and she murmured to herself, "What a beautiful and charming girl!"

Mrs. Wang frowned and looked at Xiren and said, "Serve her well!"

"Don't be clumsy."

After saying this, Mrs. Wang stood up and said to Aunt Xue, "Since you have no objection, come with me."

"I will go and look for the old immortal again at the cost of my dignity."

After that, she complained angrily, "This is you, our biological sister."

"No one else can do that."

Aunt Xue nodded earnestly, "Yes! Yes! Yes, sister has always been tolerant of me."

"If I didn't have my sister, I wouldn't know how I would have gotten through these past few years."

The two sisters walked towards Grandmother Jia while talking.

Now it’s just a matter of persuading them one by one.

Fortunately, since Jia Baoyu was ill, Grandmother Jia would not make things too difficult for him.

Instead, he looked at Aunt Xue and said meaningfully, "Madam, you have to explain this matter clearly to Bao."

"If she is so reluctant, then this matter will not be beautiful."

Aunt Xue nodded heavily, perhaps because Grandmother Jia couldn't see clearly.

Then he added, "Old Madam, don't worry. Our precious girl is very obedient and filial. She will definitely have no objection to what I say."

"I will also treat Baoyu willingly."

"I can guarantee this with my life."

"It's me who is often confused and makes my sister and the old lady worried."

Grandmother Jia looked at Aunt Xue with a half-smile, and said slowly, "We are all parents, so it doesn't matter whether you are confused or not."

"As long as our Baoyu can get better, everything else will be easy." Grandmother Jia said lightly.

Aunt Xue's heart shuddered. What did the old lady mean? Was she warning her? Her mind was in a mess, but she remembered one thing firmly.

"Sister, do you think this matter can be settled?" Aunt Xue asked anxiously.

Mrs. Wang nodded, turned the Buddhist beads in her hand, and waited quietly.

Grandmother Jia poked the ground with her cane and said to Mrs. Wang, "Second daughter-in-law, now both sides agree."

"It is easy to get engaged."

"But there is one thing. Should I tell the Queen about this?"

Madam Wang smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, mother. I mentioned this to Your Majesty the last time I entered the palace."

"The Queen is very pleased with Baochai."

"Your Highness has no impression of other girls, but you like Baochai's talent, appearance, and character very much."

Mrs. Wang was secretly proud in her heart, but there was one thing she didn't say out loud, which was that the Queen also understood the matter of breaking off the engagement with the Lin family.

At this point, the matter was done and Grandmother Jia could not find any reason to object.

But there is still one thing that needs to be resolved, that is Yingchun. The second girl has reached the marriageable age, and she is older than Baoyu.

Before Baoyu gets married, he has to marry Yingchun off first.

But Yingchun's identity is awkward. Her father doesn't love her and her mother doesn't care about her. Jia She is like that, and Mrs. Xing is also a confused person.

Where can she find a husband immediately?

Thinking of this, she asked Mrs. Wang, "Have you ever seen a suitable young man?"

"Yingchun has to come before Baoyu!"

Mrs. Wang's heart skipped a beat and she had forgotten about that maid.

She is usually as quiet as a log, so how could she find someone immediately?

But if I skip Yingchun, I'm afraid that Mrs. Xing will take the opportunity to make trouble.

Mrs. Wang tossed the Buddhist beads in her hand back and forth, thinking about the unmarried man she knew.

The Wang family does have one, but Yingchun clearly doesn’t look like the mistress of the household.

Others...

Mrs. Wang frowned more and more as she thought about it, and finally decided,

This is not something we should worry about. Let Mrs. Xing worry about it.

Whatever she chooses is fine.

No one complained anymore.

Thinking of this, she said directly to Grandmother Jia, "Mother, Yingchun's affairs must be handed over to the eldest sister-in-law."

"No matter what kind of person we find, we'll probably end up complaining."

"She has never done anything good. How could she do such a thing?"

After hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Grandmother Jia said with some doubt, and expressed her worries.

"Besides, if I let her rush to look for it all over the city, no one will think that I, the daughter of the Jia family, have done anything wrong."

"The remaining two girls will be affected."

At this time, Aunt Xue, who had been quietly standing aside, suddenly said, "Sister, the Wang family still has Feng's brother Wang Ren, who is still unmarried!"

Madam Wang glared at her fiercely, "Shut up!"

Aunt Xue took back her words, looking sad.

Grandmother Jia was amused by what she saw. It seemed that she really despised the girls from the Jia family.
