The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

After being pushed away by Yingchun for half a day, Shi Taijun was tired and angry, but he had no choice but to let go of this wooden girl who couldn't understand human language, and came straight to Jia Amnesty, intending to start with warmth and tell him about the love between mother and child.

Because Jia Amnesty was coming, Aunt Xue hurriedly took the girls and said goodbye.She regretted that Xue Pan was not invited together today. Her daughter Baochai had already told her in a private voice. Good words, help him get promoted and make a fortune.Aunt Xue was very itchy and wished she could replace Jia Zhen with her precious son.

Baochai was more sober and shrewd than her mother, knowing that her brother's lazy temper would not please General Ning.If the Marquis of Pardon is still the slutty dude he used to be, he can make his elder brother show more filial piety and make friends with friends.However, for the sake of his son's face, the Marquis of She has changed his temper, so it is absolutely impossible for him to talk to her brother.Instead of expecting her elder brother to climb up to General Ning and pardon the Marquis, it is better for her and her mother to work harder to cling to the second girl and the eldest wife.Sometimes, the friendship of female relatives can also come in handy.

Now Baochai has basically persuaded Aunt Xue to give up the so-called "golden jade marriage", that is, the huge gold collar and the golden lock have been suppressed by Baochai.She also knew that most of her eligibility to enter the palace was delayed by her brother's murder. However, in this world, snakes have their tracks and mice have their ways, and sometimes the rich and rich have their own way.I don't see the pair of prodigal men in the East Mansion, who can donate to officials with money.Although their family is an imperial merchant and cannot be an official, the most important thing they lack is money.If there is no way out, just use money to break open, if you are not qualified, just use money to buy.As long as he finds the right method and perseveres, Baochai believes that one day he will be able to realize his ambition of Qingyun.

Speaking of which, Baochai is also a poor girl.Because her father died young, her mother was weak, and her brother was useless, she had to give up her innocence early and plan for the whole family.Even your own future, you have to worry about yourself.In order for Xue's family to remain undefeated, she must find a capable husband's family for herself, so that she can help the family in the future.

In fact, if possible, the best way is to find a sister-in-law who can support her, but with her brother's appearance, how can a daughter of a good family be willing to marry her?For the sake of the Xue family, Baochai could only choose to sacrifice her own happiness. Her goal was in the court, she gave up the red attire of the main room, and being a concubine who was dominated all her life, even if she was a concubine of the royal family, was also a kind of heartache.But she has no choice, only when she enters the palace, is favored, and promoted, the Xue family can be guaranteed.

The best example is her aunt who committed a crime, who is still able to be the head of the house in a glorious manner, isn't it because she gave birth to the empress?If she can climb to Yuanchun's current status, or even a little lower, her mother will also benefit.The entire Xue family can also be supported, at least the prosperity and wealth in front of them will be preserved.If she is really lucky and can give birth to dragon sons, the Xue family can at least be prosperous for three generations, and she will live up to her father's love and teaching.

At Ning's house that day, she saw Yingchun learning the rules with the nuns who came out of the palace, and she knew that it was not easy to enter the palace.Yingchun, Daiyu and Xichun are all on the draft list, and they can enter the palace in the year of the general election. If they are favored, they will soar into the sky.However, the three of them have no ambitions here, and none of them like to mention the word "draft".Baochai was extremely envious. She would rather be a court lady than enter the palace, but others dismissed her.

Without the qualifications for the draft, if you want to enter the palace, you can only go heresy.Baochai thought of Caipin holding the qin who came out with Jiapin on the day of visiting relatives. That was Yuanchun's maid since she was a child, because she was able to bring a maid into the palace under the name of the eldest granddaughter of the Duke's mansion.Now what Baochai wants to do is to please Yingchun, and when she is drafted, she will act as a maid and follow her in.Baochai is as careful as a hair, and from the teachings of Yingchun by Mother Yue, it can be seen that General Ning has no intention of letting his sister enter the palace to be a concubine, and he didn't even bother to teach Yingchun's maids to adapt to the court. Put down the sign, go home and marry yourself.

Baochai envies that Yingchun has a good brother, but she is also unwilling to complain about her brother, everyone has their own destiny, and her brother who is not worth a share can only be a younger sister.Baochai is willing to lower her price to be a maid for the Spring Festival, and enter the palace with her attendants.She only seeks an opportunity, an opportunity for her to show herself in front of superiors.If she entered the palace and failed to stay, she would give up.But she couldn't even get in, she couldn't be reconciled anyway.

Originally, Yingchun was far away in Ningfu, and she was out of reach even with eight poles.Fortunately, now that she has such an opportunity, Yingchun moved back to Rongfu, which is very close at hand. If she doesn't seize the opportunity firmly, where will she go to wait for the next time?There is still more than a year before the general election. She will be 15 years old now. By the time of the general election, she will be more than 16 and a half years old. She is only one line away from the required maximum age of 17 years old. This is the only chance.If following Yingchun doesn't work, even if she can climb up to the younger Xichun, she won't be able to enter the palace.

The next general election, the [-]th year of the Spring Festival, and the [-]th year of Daiyu are all in the election year; however, Xichun is not yet old enough to wait until the next election.But Baochai has only one chance, either Yingchun or Daiyu, and he must climb up to one of them, and then enter the palace.As for how to use her skills after entering, she still doesn't care about making plans. After all, if she can't get in, any plan will be useless.If she had time to think about that, it would be much more useful for her to quickly make friends with the two girls.

Yingchun and Daiyu discover at the same time that Baochai, who was originally gentle and affectionate, has become more cordial.Because Shi Taijun passed on Jia Amnesty to speak, these little girls could only go to the side building to avoid it, or go home with the eldest wife.But Mrs. Xing didn't dare to go back before Jia She left, so she left them to watch a play together in the east building.

The play was not very interesting, and the girls didn't like to watch it very much. In addition, the weather was extremely hot, so they hid in the shade in twos and threes, and the maids kept fanning, fanning the cool breeze, and talking lazily.

Xichun was the youngest, and she had no taboos. The unbearable heat made her drowsy, so Youshi took someone to send her to take a nap.Tanchun was pulling Daiyu to talk, asking her how she went to Ronghou's mansion, she might often see the old man and so on.Baochai then sat beside Yingchun, waving the palace fan that concubine Jia had rewarded that day, and said with a slight smile, "I didn't expect the weather to be so hot. I don't want to come tomorrow. Will my sister come another day?"

Because Yingchun let go of her knots, she now has a more open-minded and lively heart, and she has a good sense of Baochai, so she also called Sister Shengbao, saying: "I want to go back now, but my wife is here, so I can't go away." That's all."

Baochai immediately bowed down and said, "My mother also thinks it's very hot. If you want to go home, why don't you come with us, the eldest lady will be at ease."

Yingchun felt that Baochai was really considerate and thoughtful. Wouldn't it be possible to go home with Aunt Xue? She smiled and said, "Thanks to Auntie. I'll ask my mother and second sister-in-law."

Baochai also got up and said, "I also need to say goodbye to the eldest lady. Let's go together."

Yingchun said: "It's also called Sister Shanglin, but Fourth Sister, she's asleep, so that's all. When the weather cools down in the evening, let Second Sister-in-law take her back."

The two of them went to find Mrs. Xing together, and said that it was hot and wanted to go home with Aunt Xue.Although Mrs. Xing has no relatives with Aunt Xue, and she doesn't like the stain of being Mrs. Wang's younger sister, but in terms of temperament, Aunt Xue always smiles and greets people. The Xue family is very rich, and they are very generous every time they make a move.Mrs. Xing's love of money can't be changed. Aunt Xue always finds excuses to honor her with gemstones, jade bracelets, gold and silver necklaces and other things, which quite suit her wishes.Therefore, there was no objection, and she took the initiative to entrust Aunt Xue and said: "I will leave these girls to you."

Aunt Xue agreed, and took Yingchun's caress without letting go: "It's not that I flatter the eldest lady. From Jinling to the capital, I have seen so many girls from other families, and the sum of them can't compare with the eldest girl. They are so gentle, peaceful, well-behaved and capable. No. I'm bragging that my family's treasure girl is very helpful to me at home, but she can't compare to Yingda girl who is in charge of Nuoda's Marquis Mansion, and she can't make any mistakes. I just said that of course General Ning went to the sea, and the closed door lock The decisiveness of the government is not something ordinary girls can have. With such a daughter, the eldest wife is stronger than ten sons."

Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "Her elder brother thinks highly of her, and Tete invited a nanny to teach her, but I don't care too much. I can stand on my own after all, but she is still young, and occasionally she does things well. But there are also times when I can't stand the praise of my aunt."

The two came and went, boasting about each other's daughter, taking care of their face before leaving.Aunt Xue walked in front in a four-person sedan chair, followed closely by Baochai, Daiyu and Yingchun in a red-wheeled canopy car.Jia Zhen was clever, and asked Jia Qiang to take a few reliable servants to escort her, with Xue's own family members accompanying her, and they entered the Rong Mansion without incident.

After passing through the second gate, Aunt Xue got out of the sedan chair, and the girls got out of the car. Baochai took the opportunity to invite, "There is no one at home, and it would be boring for you to stay alone. Why don't you come to my house and sit down." Aunt Xue also pulled Daiyu and said: "The third day of junior high school is your big brother Xue's birthday. Cheng Rixing from the antique shop didn't know where he found such a thick and long pink and crisp fresh lotus root, such a big watermelon, and such a long fresh sturgeon. Such a big cypress-scented Siamese pig that Siam paid tribute to. Your big brother Xue respected me, and rushed to give some to your old lady, the elder master, the second master and the second wife. I'm afraid that there are too many people and the division will be thin, so you sisters come with my house today and try something new."
