The seventh year of Hongde, September 1st.

In another four days, it will be Jia Jing’s birthday in Ningguo Mansion.

On this day, Jia Jing returned home during the scattered court and had just had lunch with Lin Daiyu.

Suddenly, a servant from Ningguo Mansion came to invite him, saying that he wanted Jia Jing to go over and discuss the matters on Jia Jing's birthday on the fifth day of the lunar month.

Jia Jing asked, "In previous years, Brother Zhen made his own decisions, why did everyone discuss this year?"

When the servant heard Jia Jing's inquiry, he hurriedly bowed and replied: "Our master originally planned to come according to the examples of previous years, but yesterday the Taoist priest from Xuanzhen Temple came to send a message saying that the great master had spent the birthday of this year and would not come back.

The master thought it was good, so he could take the opportunity to ask everyone to gather together, so he asked the slave to invite the masters from both sides to come over and discuss how to arrange that day!"

Jia Jing nodded, "Since that's the case, then go and have a look!"

After saying that, Jia Jing got up and followed the servant to Ningguo Mansion.

…………

But it was said that Jia Jing had just left the mansion.

Zijuan came in outside and reported to Lin Daiyu: "Madam, the concubine is here!"

Lin Daiyu hurriedly said, "Come in quickly!"

After a while, Aunt Xue lifted the curtain and came in.

As soon as Fang entered the door, he smiled and said, "Since the old lady's birthday, I haven't seen you for nearly a month, and her complexion is getting better and better!"

Lin Daiyu asked Aunt Xue to sit down.

Hearing Aunt Xue's words, he also smiled and said, "Brother Jing is at home recently. I have eaten and drunk all day long, so I naturally have gained weight!"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Xue sincerely exclaimed: "Brother Jing treats you so much! I don't know how many people have envied you!"

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but laugh.

...

After Aunt Xue talked with Lin Daiyu for a while, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and her face slowly became silent.

Lin Daiyu naturally noticed Aunt Xue’s changes and asked, “Auntie, is there something wrong with me?”

"this……"

Aunt Xue wanted to speak but stopped, her face full of embarrassment...

When Lin Daiyu saw this, she ordered Xue Yan Zijuan beside her to say, "You two go outside and guard them. Everyone else will go down first. I'll talk to my aunt!"

The maids and mothers who were serving inside and outside bowed down after hearing this.

At this time, Lin Daiyu said again: "Auntie, you have always loved me, and I remember it all in my heart! I lost my mother since I was a child, and I have long treated my aunt like my mother in my heart. Now that my aunt has something to do, why doesn't she refuse to tell me?!"

After hearing Lin Daiyu's words, Aunt Xue first glanced at the door.

Then Qiqi Aiai said, "I shouldn't have asked this, but I can't ask at this time... Is it... Have you ever thought of taking a concubine to Brother Jing?"

"Take a concubine?"

Lin Daiyu was stunned when she heard this, but she said to Aunt Xue truthfully: "We have just gotten married, and we have never thought about taking a concubine for the time being!"

Then, he frowned again and asked Aunt Xue, "Is there a family who asked Aunt to be a matchmaker?"

Speaking of this, Lin Daiyu's pretty face, which was as beautiful as a flower, also had a ray of angry face.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue waved her hand and said, "No one asked me to be a matchmaker!"

"Why did my aunt talk about taking a concubine to Brother Jing?"

When Aunt Xue heard this, she sighed and her eyebrows were all shrugged, "I'm asking our Baochai..."

"Sister Xue?" Lin Daiyu was shocked, "Sister Xue is also a figure, why is it time to be a concubine?"

"Bao Yatou is a strong person, and this is all her own choice!"

Looking up again, Aunt Xue's eyes were already red, "Last month, you were also present on the old lady's birthday. At the birthday party, what did your good aunt say? After a while, she almost called Baochai, who almost found a crack in the ground and crawled in on the spot.

When I got home, my eyes were swollen when I cried inside the house."

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but sigh when she thought of the scene that day.

After taking out the silk squid and rubbing his eyes, Aunt Xue continued, "After I knew about this, I thought about it and quickly searching for a good family for Baoyao and asking her to marry her, which would be considered a matter of my mind.

But our family is from a merchant, and what we found is just a similar family. Baoya was in a state of mind and would rather be a concubine than marry a wealthy family.

I thought about it all, and I was pregnant with concubines, so I might as well marry Brother Jing as my concubine, so I can feel at ease!

First of all, as the wife of Zhengtang, you are a good person, and there is no need to say much about Jing Ge'er's character.

Now, I'm here with my face licking my face today, right?!"

As he said that, tears fell from his eyes.

Lin Daiyu's eyes were also a little red when she heard this, so she hurriedly comforted Aunt Xue and said, "Auntie, don't cry. When you go back, tell Sister Xue that as long as she is willing to come, she dare not say anything else, there must be her yard in the mansion!

Then we sisters will be able to play together for a long time!”

"Good boy! Good boy!" Aunt Xue held Lin Daiyu's hand tightly, her face extremely moved.

But he was worried again, "But will this make you embarrassed?"

Lin Daiyu said: "This is okay. I will take my concubine to Brother Jing one day. Sooner or later, I might as well ask Sister Xue to accompany me! It's something I can't ask for!"

When Aunt Xue heard this, her eyes were red and she was moved as if nothing had happened.

In order to avoid changes, Aunt Xue immediately agreed with Lin Daiyu that on the third day of September, she would pick Xue Baochai up and enter the door.

Afterwards, Aunt Xue left in a hurry with joy.

...

"Madam, didn't Miss Xue come to our mansion a lot a few times ago? I didn't see it as the concubine said! The concubine's words were fragmented, obviously just being fooled, why did she coax you, Madam?"

After Aunt Xue left, Xue Yan came in and said anxiously: "Mrs. I'm sending an aunt to the Marquis. How can you agree?"

Lin Daiyu, with a calm face, picked up the hawthorn honey water in front of her, took a sip, and asked back, "Why do I disagree?"

Xueyan opened her mouth and wanted to say the word "fight for favor".

Lin Daiyu put down the teacup in her hand.

He continued: "Sister Xue is used to being familiar with me, and her relationship in the past is like a sister. Since she is willing to come to the house to be with me, then naturally there is nothing better.

Besides, sooner or later, what does it matter if you have to take a concubine to the marquis sooner or later?

After taking a concubine, if I suddenly get pregnant or something, I can have someone to take care of Brother Jing’s daily life.”

...

Zijuan next to him also understood.

Then he smiled at Xueyan and said, "What the lady said is reasonable! Besides, Miss Xue is also a beauty second only to our wife. In addition, her charming appearance, cann't this hold the Marquis's heart more closely?

Just like the second grandmother Lian in Rong Mansion, she is in charge of the second grandmother Lian, even Ping'er, who is a concubine, rarely touches him.

In the end, Mr. Lian was forced to do nothing and secretly raise his wife outside. Now he doesn’t return home all day long. Which one is the best one?"
