Chapter 214 Dragon Boat Festival Banquet
What caused everyone to fall into silence was that Mrs. Wang actually told her that she had previously wanted to hold Xue Baochai in her hand and then take Jia Baoyu as her concubine, and said in front of everyone.
I think of the fact that Xue Baochai hurriedly married into the Wuhou Mansion as a concubine before.
Everyone's expressions changed.
As soon as Mrs. Wang said this, how could people not think too much?
Later, Aunt Xue's face had long been as dark as the bottom of the pot, and Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai's faces were also extremely ugly.
After all, Xue Baochai is now Jia Jing’s concubine!
At this point, no matter whether Mrs. Wang did it on purpose or unintentional, she has completely offended the entire Zhaowu Hou Mansion and Aunt Xue!
...
After listening to Xueyan’s story, Jia Jing’s face was extremely ugly, as if it was about to drip out of water.
Jia Jing glanced around and did not see Mrs. Wang.
Suddenly, an inexplicable heavy pressure was shrouded, making everyone feel heavy.
Seeing that Jia Jing's face was really ugly, after Jia Mu hurried over to smooth things over, "Brother Jing, let's sit down first. I have scolded her, this time it's really unreasonable! But it's all because of drinking too much. Brother Jing, you're more responsible..."
"be magnanimous?"
Jia Jing looked at Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai who were bowing their heads and silently, and had long lost the mood to attend the banquet.
So, he bowed to Jia Mu, Jia Jing stood up and said goodbye, "Old lady, grandson will not sit here. There are some urgent matters in my house that need to be dealt with, so I will go back first!"
After saying that, he said to Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai on the side, "You can go back with me."
When Daiyu and Baochai heard this, they both stood up obediently and followed Jia Jing.
Then, Jia Jing said to Aunt Xue: "Aunt Xue, come with me too. Some news from Xue Pan will be sent back, and I will send it to you!"
When he heard the news about Xue Pan and the embarrassment he had before, Aunt Xue hurriedly stood up, and after accusing her of Jia Mu, she followed Jia Jing.
So, Jia Jing and his party took their maids back to Wuhou Mansion in a mighty manner.
The rest of the people couldn't help but look at each other, and then, in Jia Mu's extremely ugly expression, they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
…………
On the way back to Wuhou Mansion.
Jia Jing did not ride a horse for the first time, but accompanied Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai in the green carriage.
After leaving the Grand View Garden, Lin Daiyu's mood improved significantly, but Xue Baochai kept looking down with her head and looked depressed.
Seeing this, Jia Jing comforted: "You don't have to take things to heart, everything has passed, right?"
Hearing these words, Xue Baochai finally raised her head, her eyes were slightly red, and she asked, "Third Brother, do you think I went to our mansion when I saw that I was desperate?"
Only then did Jia Jing realize that Xue Baochai was sad and depressed for this reason, so she immediately started to laugh.
"I still wonder what's going on!"
He reached out to wipe away the two crystal drops that had fallen from Xue Baochai's eyes, and Jia Jing's face was full of smiles, "You, you just think too much, but I have never thought about it like that before!"
After saying that, Jia Jing took the two of them and said, "I can't even hurt you two!"
In a word, Xue Baochai can’t care about being sad?
Only those who blush like Lin Daiyu were left.
...
Wuhou Mansion.
Jia Jing first asked Amber to arrange the kitchen and quickly set up a banquet, and waited to entertain Aunt Xue.
Afterwards, Aunt Xue was invited to sit in the main hall.
Aunt Xue naturally refused repeatedly. She came here as Baochai's mother today, so how could she sit down in the main hall?
Seeing this, Jia Jing smiled and said, "This is not the Rongguo Mansion next door, there are so many rules. Now in our own mansion, I will tell you that Aunt Xue doesn't have to be too restricted!"
Xue Baochai also advised: "The third brother is right, just take your seat! You don't have to be too restricted in our own house!"
Lin Daiyu also advised, "Aunt Xue just sit down, it's okay!"
Seeing the three of them freely at home and their casual names, Aunt Xue realized that every time Xue Baochai went home, the daily things she said were not fabricated...
In Aunt Xue's perception, it is really hard to imagine that Xue Baochai can get such status and respect at home as a concubine!
Immediately, Aunt Xue smiled and sighed: "It is Baochai's blessing to be a concubine for Brother Jing!
Now that I have seen Baochai live so well with my own eyes, I feel completely relieved as a mother!”
Afterwards, when Jia Jing invited me again, Aunt Xue finally sat down with joy.
...
After a while, Amber led a few maids to bring dishes of dishes.
Jia Jing smiled and said, "In a hurry, the food is not as luxurious as the next door. Aunt Xue is even more forgiving!"
"As long as you can eat happily at home, you can even give me a table of delicacies!" Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Eating at home requires comfort and food. This is the most important thing!"
When Jia Jing and Daiyu Baochai heard this, they all laughed...
Have enough wine and full meals.
While everyone was sitting idle, the maids served hot tea.
Jia Jing said: "Actually, I'm asking Aunt Xue to come here today, and there's really news about Brother Xue..."
As he said that, he took out a letter from his pocket in his sleeve.
He handed the letter to Aunt Xue, and Jia Jing continued: "Brother Xue has been walking on the grassland recently and has gained a lot. He asked me to tell Baochai and Aunt that he didn't have to worry about him. By the time of autumn harvest, he would almost come back!"
Aunt Xue looked at the letter in her hand and tears immediately fell.
"This bastard is now sensible! Finally, I don't have to worry about him all day long!"
In a word, Xue Baochai's eyes couldn't help but turn red...
…………
In a blink of an eye, several more days passed
On this day, Jia Jing was at home.
While reading a book in the study, a servant suddenly came to report, "Mr. Marquis, Second Master Lian is here!"
"Come in with the Second Master Lian!"
"yes!"
A few moments.
Jia Lian was brought over by a maid.
Seeing Jia Lian come in, Jia Jing put down the booklet in his hand and smiled and said, "By the way, why did Brother Lian remember me today? You are a rare guest in the mansion!!"
Sitting on the big chair, Jia Lian smiled embarrassedly as he listened to Jia Jing's words.
Then, my mouth opened again and again, but I didn't know where to start.
Seeing this, Jia Jing smiled and said, "Looking at the second brother Lian, I really have something to look for me today, but I just feel it's hard to speak. What I said is not right?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Lian nodded with a wry smile.
After hesitating for a while, he slowly said: "It is true that I was entrusted by someone to do this, so after I tell you, 555 Brother Jing, don't be angry!"
Seeing that Jia Lian was still laying the groundwork back and forth, Jia Jing frowned slightly, "Whether you are angry, you have to ask Brother Lian to tell the matter first, so I can know it, right?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Lian gritted his teeth and asked, "Someone asked me to ask me to marry the second lady in our house!"
"Someone wants to ask for the second lady?"
Chapter completed!
