Quick Wear: The female supporting role makes a comeback by giving birth to a child

Chapter 231: Red Mansion: I am Baochai’s wet nurse (12)

These words were extremely sharp, like a sharp knife stabbing Aunt Xue's heart.

She staggered and shook her head in a daze:

"No, no, how could I do this to you... I'm doing this for your own good, I'm doing this for your own good..."

As if Baochai still felt that this was not exciting enough, she dropped a bombshell:

"I guess mother doesn't know yet? My brother has passed the Imperial College exam and is now a student."

After a pause, she smiled and said,

"The teacher said that you can take the imperial examination this autumn. Maybe after the examination, you will become a juren."

After hearing Baochai's words, Aunt Xue felt dizzy.

After a long while, she finally steadied herself with the help of Yao Hong: "Are you serious?"

Baochai sneered: "Whether it is true or not, mother can ask brother and find out."

Aunt Xue suddenly fell down on the chair: "Sister, you are wrong!"

Families like theirs have neither lack of power nor money.

Anyone who wants to be an official, from the fifth rank or below, can donate one.

But this is different from taking the formal exam.

A child who can pass the exam, with the blessing of his family, will surely become a marquis or a minister in the future.

Every noble family has expectations for their own children.

It’s just that the family conditions are too good, which makes many children lose the motivation to make progress.

Anyone who has a child who is well educated will be envied by many families.

But this also means that this family has to be more well-behaved and there can't be any scandals.

Aunt Xue felt a pang of fear when she thought about how she almost ruined her daughter's reputation.

As Xue Pan's sister from the same mother, once Xue Baochai's reputation is ruined, it will immediately become evidence for others to attack Xue Pan.

I'm afraid Xue Pan's journey to the imperial examination will end here!

The more Aunt Xue thought about it, the more frightened she became.

Xue Baochai ignored her mother.

She had long seen through that her mother only cared about her brother.

Fortunately, her brother loves her.

Baochai was thinking about Xue Pan, who had already been called over by the old woman.

Since he was admitted to the Imperial College, he has been studying there every day.

After the little maid reported, she opened the curtain and let Xue Pan in.

As soon as Xue Pan came in, he was stopped by Aunt Xue: "Pan'er, did you really pass the exam to become a student?"

Because she did not live in this mansion and often hung out outside, Aunt Xue did not even know that her son had started school.

Xue Pan was stunned for a moment.

He looked at his mother, with some surprise in his eyes: "Mom, don't you know?"

Aunt Xue was also stunned for a moment. Should she know?

Xue Pan didn't know what he was thinking of, and smiled: "Yes, I passed the exam."

But there was a hint of self-mockery in this smile.

Everyone, including my sister, thought that he was the person my mother cared about the most.

But only he knows that the person his mother cares about most is herself!

She cared about him only because he was her son.

With him around, the Xue family won't be able to take back all the family property, and she can still enjoy a rich life!

Xue Pan lowered his eyes slightly and looked at his sister:

"Sister, how are you? You called your brother in a hurry, but what happened?"

The old woman who came to call him didn't know what had happened, she just said that her sister had dealt with Ying'er.

Xue Baochai stood up and said, "Brother, take me home."

Seeing his sister's determined look and his mother's silence, Xue Pan instinctively felt that something unspeakable had happened.

He didn't ask any more questions and nodded:

"Okay. Let someone pack up first, and I'll go and say goodbye."

"Everything has been packed. Mother is still here, so my brother doesn't have to go."

If it weren't inconvenient for her as a girl to go out alone, Baochai would not have asked her brother to come back.

Xue Pan nodded: "Okay. Let's go."

Long before, when Xue Baochai wanted to leave, she asked someone to pack up her things.

After what happened today, she couldn't stay here any longer.

If she stayed in this house any longer, she was afraid that she would lose everything!

"Pan'er!"

Seeing that her son ignored her, Aunt Xue hurriedly tried to pull someone back.

Xue Pan dodged sideways and looked back at her:

"I know mom likes it here, so don't worry, stay here. I'll take my sister home first. If you get homesick, you can ask someone to call your son."

Baochai was walking in front, and upon hearing this, she sneered:

"My mother and my aunt have a very close relationship, so how can I miss home?"

She didn't even turn her head and walked out the door.

Xue Pan hurriedly followed.

For a moment, the whole house seemed empty, and the loneliness made people feel uneasy.

The brother and sister left directly through the back door without even saying goodbye, which showed that they were very angry.

After returning home, when everyone had left, Baochai told Xue Pan what had happened.

And then he said:

"Mother thought that since she was supporting her with money, my aunt would treat her sincerely. But I feel that my aunt was plotting against my brother after what happened today!"

Xue Pan has now entered the imperial examination arena and also knows some of the internal rules of the examination.

After his sister told him that story, he was angry but also vaguely understood.

Finally, he laughed out of anger:

"First, when I went to school at noon, I saw Baoyu. He is good friends with Feng Ziying and knows my situation."

If Baoyu knew it, how could Mrs. Wang not know it?

Baochai couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "I'm afraid I've never seen such a stupid person in the world!"

Xue Pan didn't respond.

He is now in the middle of it, and even if he is disappointed with his mother, he has to respect her.

Not for filial piety, but for the future of myself and my sister.

"Speaking of Feng Ziying, has brother found out Li Ning's identity?"

"No." Xue Pan shook his head.

"However, Yan Zhiting is the grandson of Master Yan. I guess he might be the one."

Baochai was stunned for a moment, then she understood:

"Yes. The one who made General Feng's son and Grand Tutor Yan's grandson rank second to him, and whose names are similar, must be him, no doubt about it."

"My sister is smart."

Xue Pan always knew that his sister was smarter than him.

If she were not a woman, with her talent and character, she would definitely have a place in the imperial examination!

"Brother was in a hurry to come back, I think he asked for leave. Now I have nothing to do, brother, please go back quickly."

Xue Pan: ...

Sighing, "Sister, can't you let your brother take a break?"

Finally I have a legitimate reason to skip school!

Xue Baochai:ヾ( ̄0 ̄; )ノ

Seeing that his sister was about to get angry, Xue Pan immediately stepped back:

"Sister, brother is leaving first! If you need anything, ask someone to call brother!"

slip away!

Why is my sister becoming more and more strict?

ah~

So worried~

When will this imperial examination end?

When will I finish reading this book?!

Xue Pan was in terribly pain.

I miss the carefree days when I used to play with cats and dogs.

That kind of happiness is gone forever.

The matter of the Xue brothers and sisters leaving the Jia Mansion was soon reported back to Lady Wang and Lady Jia.

Rongxi Hall.

Mrs. Wang was twirling her rosary beads in her hand, her eyes half closed:

"Oh my god, that girl must have been frightened. It's also because we didn't handle things properly. Mrs. Zhou Rui, go and give the jade ruyi in my storeroom to Bao, and tell her that I, as her aunt, am here to apologize to her."

Zhou Ruijia responded: "Yes."

Rongqing Hall.

Hearing Mrs. Wang's way of handling the matter, Grandmother Jia sneered and asked Yuanyang to pick out a jade ruyi and send it over, saying:

"Go see what Yu'er is doing. Why haven't you been around these days? Are you bored by an old woman like me?"
