Chapter 128 Baochai is a guest at the Hou Mansion

Wuhou Mansion.

Jia Jing returned from the palace, but saw Lin Daiyu in the room sitting on the kang embroidery and chatting.

"Sister Xue is here! He is a rare guest!"

Jia Jing put the collection of poems, pocket watch and cage in his hand on the table in the room, took the tea cup in front of Lin Daiyu, and drank the already cooled tea in it in one go.

"Oh, you guys!"

With Xue Baochai here, Lin Daiyu was a little embarrassed and angry, "It's no problem to ask the maid to add a cup of tea, but I just drank my tea again!"

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was a little embarrassed and annoyed, Jia Jing hurriedly smiled and said, "Isn't this the newly poured tea a little hot! I came back in the sun again, so I was so thirsty!"

After hearing this, Lin Daiyu saw that Jia Jing was indeed sweating on her forehead, so she hurriedly called Xueyan outside and said, "Go and get a pot of my specially iced sour plum soup for the Marquis!"

After saying that, Lin Daiyu asked Jia Jing to be by her side, picked up the round fan on the table, and fanned Jia Jing to cool off the heat.

...

Next to him, Xue Baochai looked at the objects that Jia Jing placed on the table and asked curiously: "Where did Brother Jing get the three objects?"

Jia Jing smiled and said, "It was all obtained from the palace lord. Your Majesty asked me to get three things from his treasure house, and then I took them out..."

When Lin Daiyu heard this, she looked at the three things on the table and couldn't help but smile: "I walked into His Majesty's treasure house, why did you take out these three things?"

Jia Jing said speechlessly about the incident to Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai, especially when talking about the difference between Emperor Hongde’s treasure house and the inner treasury, which made the two women laugh so hard.

For a moment, a crisp laugh like a silver bell rang out in the room from time to time.

After a pause, Jia Jing pointed to the three items and smiled: "But the things I chose are also good!"

As he said that, Jia Jing handed the collection of poems to Lin Daiyu and said, "For example, the wife has always loved reading books. I happened to find this book "Yi'an Jushi" in it. I think the wife must like it!" (Li Qingzhao, named Yi'an Jushi.)

Sure enough, Lin Daiyu was still very interested in the collection of poems, so she hurriedly took them over and looked them up for a while and said, "This is indeed a rare thing. Most of the collections written by Mr. Yi'an have been lost. This book "The Collection of Mr. Yi'an" is a rare lonely book!"

Jia Jing smiled and said, "I don't know anything but lonely. I just didn't know anything. I didn't see this book in my wife's collection, so I took it back and filled the bookshelf for my wife!"

He handed the pocket watch and bird cage to Lin Daiyu, "This pocket watch has been passed down from the West, and it will be left for you to see the time!"

Finally, Jia Jing took the exquisite bird cage and smiled and said, "This is for the parrot you raise under the eaves. After living in that small cage for so long, it's time to change to a bigger house for others!!"

Lin Daiyu heard this and said, "It's really hard for you. Even the parrots I raised in my house are thinking about!"

He smiled and said to the parrot outside the curtain: "The Marquis brought you a delicate and spacious new house. Why don't you give me a gift to the Marquis!"

After hearing Lin Daiyu's words, the parrot immediately turned his head bit by bit and said, "Mr. Marquis is lucky!"

Everyone laughed so much that they made people laugh.

...

After a while.

The laughter in the room gradually stopped.

Jia Jing said to Xue Baochai on the side: "I forgot to ask just now, why did Sister Xue come here today?"

Gu Xue Baochai smiled and said, "After staying in her yard for a long time, I naturally feel irritable. Isn't this going to come out to relax!"

"Sister Xue is a rare trip, so I have to be well served today!" Jia Jing said to Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu glanced at Jia Jing and said, "Sister Xue and I are like sisters, so I should tell you? I have already told you. We have to have a good meal today!"

...

On the side, Xue Baochai looked at the person in front of her with a deep happiness and joy. Where was the faint melancholy and melancholy shadow she saw when she first arrived at the Jia Mansion two years ago?

All of this is because of marrying a good husband!

Xue Baochai was full of envy.

Thinking of this, Xue Baochai couldn't help but look at Jia Jing, who was listening to Lin Daiyu's words attentively.

When Jia Jing noticed Xue Baochai's gaze, he smiled apologetically at him, and turned his head to respond to Lin Daiyu's words.

Look at Jia Jing's patient and gentle appearance. Even if he gets married, there is no change. Instead, he has a little more love and pampering towards Lin Daiyu.

I remembered the birthday of Jia Mu yesterday.

In the entire Shenjing, there are top-notch gatherings of destiny women. Even Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, who are Lin Daiyu's mother-in-law and aunt, must stand behind Jia Mu and serve them properly.

But Lin Daiyu could sit next to Jia Mu openly because her husband was Zhaowu Hou. On the day of marriage, she achieved the lifelong goal of many women and obtained the second-rank imperial edict.

Even Jia Yingchun, although she was a concubine, was competing for a number of high-ranking families because of Jia Jing.

Xue Baochai thought about the scene when everyone turned their eyes away after learning that she was from a merchant family, and she felt very mixed in her heart for a while.

At this point, Xue Baochai realized the strength of the Jia family and the importance of Jia Jing's status and power!

This time, Xue Baochai came out to relax because after Jia Mu's birthday yesterday, Mrs. Wang's words in full view were learned by Aunt Xue. Aunt Xue was extremely angry and wanted to see Xue Baochai as soon as possible.

How could Aunt Xue not know what Mrs. Wang is thinking?

It is nothing more than completely extinguishing the signs of Xue Baochai marrying into the high school.

When Xue Baochai was not elected in the palace, the two sisters had the intention to match Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai. However, later Jia Jing returned and with Jia Jing's pearls and jade in front, Aunt Xue naturally extinguished Jia Baoyu's phoenix egg that was not motivated.

As Jia Jing was granted the title of Marquis Yuanchun to be a concubine, the power of the Jia family became increasingly grand, and Mrs. Wang was not so satisfied with the Xue family, so naturally she was happy to give up the tacit agreement between the two.

But the Xue family's rich property has already fallen into Mrs. Wang's eyes, so how can we let go?

Even more said, with the rapid rise of the Jia family in the past two years, especially Yuanchun was named a concubine in the palace. As Yuanchun's younger brother, Jia Baoyu's status has also increased with the rise of the current situation, and his wife's choices have increased.

Even though she was her sister's child, in Mrs. Wang's plan at this time, there was only one concubine's seat left for Xue Baochai, who was a merchant.

But when Aunt Xue is going to be a concubine for Jia Baoyu, how could Aunt Xue be willing?

It was also after Xue Baochai went back to Lixiangyuan yesterday that she talked about Jia Mu's birthday and learned about it from her mother that she immediately couldn't hold back her mentality.
