Since Xue Pan married Xia Jingui and entered the family, the Xue family has not lived a peaceful day. Aunt Xue, Baochai, and Xiangling are all boiled like oil.

On the other side, Jia's mansion breathed a sigh of relief. Yuanchun's illness was almost recovered, and he sent someone to give gifts to the family, and asked Baoyu's recent situation.Therefore, Jia's mother mentioned Baoyu's marriage to Jia Zheng: "Now that Baoyu is old, you should also pay attention to finding a good girl for him. It doesn't matter whether you are poor or rich. It doesn't matter if you look good and have a good temper." Jia Zheng said: "The most important thing is for Baoyu to learn well first, otherwise she will ruin a good girl for nothing."

Jia Mu said: "Baoyu has been favored by me a little bit, and he still has a child's heart, but he looks neat and has a solid heart. He may not be worthless. He is better than Huan'er anyway."

Jia Zheng laughed and said, "What mother says is what she says."

Jia Mu laughed and said, "When you were young, you were much more mischievous than Baoyu. Now you still say that Baoyu is useless. I think Baoyu is better than you were then."

Now that it was brought up, Jia Zheng had to take this matter to heart. Apart from strictly paying attention to Baoyu's homework as usual, he also asked everyone to help pay attention when chatting with the diners in private.

For a while, all the candidates mentioned by outsiders were rejected by the female family members of the Jia family.Sister Feng smiled and said to Jia Mu: "Such a good marriage is in front of me. Where else can I find it? Two little friends who know everything!" It's a good temper." Sister Feng said: "There is another one with a golden lock, isn't Heyu a good match?"

Jia's mother said, "Baochai is a nice kid, but I haven't thought about putting them together yet!"

But he said that in a few days it would be King Beijing's birthday, and Jia Zheng ordered him to give gifts as usual. Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng brought Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, and Baoyu to celebrate his birthday in person. He talked for a long time.

When she returned to Jia's mansion, Jia's mother was very happy when she heard that Baoyu was very popular with King Beijing. She smiled and said to Mrs. Wang: "On my birthday, Princess Nan'an and Princess Beijing saw some girls. Seeing how Concubine Nan'an likes Tanchun very much, she didn't mention it later, but Princess Beijing asked about Daiyu several times!"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "This is also the fate of the eyes!"

On the evening of the fifteenth day, Jia Zheng went to Mrs. Wang's room as usual. Mrs. Wang talked about Baoyu's marriage: "These girls in front of me are all good, but Baoqin and Xiangyun have already made promises to good people. Chai and Daiyu are also top-notch, which one do you like?"

Jia Zhengdao: "Naturally, I prefer my sister's daughter. Daiyu has outstanding literary talents, and has a lovely personality. She and Baoyu have also been close since childhood. The old lady also likes Miss Lin."

Mrs. Wang said: "What you said is reasonable, but I think that living at home, Bao girl who is dignified, dignified, gentle and generous is the best choice. Do you know that the empress also said that she likes Baochai more!"

Jia Zheng asked, "When did she say that?"

Mrs. Wang said: "During the last visit, she said that if Baoyu gets married, it is best to choose a girl like Bao. Think about it, master. Miss Lin is still childish with such a weak constitution. Wouldn't it be confusing for both of you to live life? If you ask me, Baochai is at least in good health, and can urge him to study hard."

Jia Zheng frowned: "I don't worry about who Daiyu will marry. My younger sister is the only one."

Mrs. Wang said: "Recently, the Beijing Palace has been asking Daiyu about her ideas. Don't worry, your niece is a rich man!"

On this day, Aunt Xue was going to Jia's mansion to have a good time with his wives and grandmas, avoiding Xia Jingui and the smoky house, but the Xue family sent someone to ask Aunt Xue to go back quickly. Aunt Xue thought it was Xia Jingui who was making trouble again, so she didn't want to answer , When he heard that Xue Pan had an accident, he went out in a panic.As soon as they got home, Xia Jingui was crying and making a scene, and Baochai's face was full of tears, and Aunt Xue knew that Xue Pan had died again.

Aunt Xue cried: "Back then there were still people who protected me, but this time I spent all my money. I don't know if I can get rid of the death penalty."

Baochai said: "Now that the trouble is raging, the family may not give up even if they get the money."

Aunt Xue cried: "Then I will die with your brother!"

At this time, someone spread the news that Xue Pan had been arrested by the government, and he did not know how to convict him.Aunt Xue was so anxious that she just used the money to do things indiscriminately. She entrusted Baochai's cousin Xue Bian to ask for help, and she grabbed Xue Pan's servant to ask why.

It turned out that Xue Pan couldn't bear Xia Jingui's nonsense at home, and was determined to go to the south to buy goods and start a good business. He just hoped that several business partners would go together.It happened that there was a businessman in the south of the city who was also going to the south to buy goods, so Xue Pan went to find him, but he met Jiang Yuhan while eating.This Jiang Yuhan was exactly the one that Prince Zhongshun asked Baoyu for back then, but now that he is too old to sing those operas, he led the opera troupe to perform everywhere by himself, which is considered a downfall.Seeing the shop assistants staring at Jiang Yuhan, Xue Pan felt jealous, but it was fine at the time.The next day Xue Pan took his business partner to drink, and had a conflict with the shop assistant the day before. He remembered Jiang Yuhan's matter again, so he immediately picked up the wine bowl and called that person.

The man didn't dodge either, he stretched out his head and asked Xue Pan to hit him quickly, Xue Pan hit him once, and the man fell down, and he was dead.

Aunt Xue was so anxious that she had to go to Rongguo Mansion to find Mrs. Wang, and asked her to ask Jia Zhengwan to help. Jia Zheng was furious when he heard this: "Back then when someone died, I said that this prodigal son should be strictly guarded, and now it is like this. , not to mention that I don't have that much face when I speak lightly, and the Jia Mansion is no longer as powerful as it used to be, even if I have this ability, I don't want to protect such a thing anymore!"

Here, Aunt Xue can only go all out to use the silver, and ask the boys to send it to the Yamen, so as to save Xue Pan from suffering.He also thought that Xue Pan should at least be guilty of negligence, and it would be best if someone replaced him.

The Xue family did their best to turn Xue Pan's crime into negligent death, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since Jia Baoyu came to Jia Dairu's private school, he was so busy going around every day that he went to the Xiaoxiang Hall much less frequently.It was so cold that day, Jia Dairu asked for leave, and Baoyu went to play with Daiyu. The two seemed to have nothing to say, so Baoyu got up and went to Tanchun's place.

Daiyu lay down sullenly, only to hear Xueyan and Zijuan whispering outside the house, Xueyan said: "Don't shout, I heard that Baoyu is engaged!" Zijuan was surprised: "Who said that?"

Xueyan said: "I heard from the servant book that she is the daughter of the magistrate's family. It is said that everything is excellent."

Zijuan said: "No wonder the second master Bao came here just now, he seemed to have a relationship with Miss Lin."

Daiyu was always full of thoughts, but now her heart hurts like twists and turns, she lay on the bed and pretended to sleep, her tears wet the pillow.

Baoyu didn't know about it, and every time he went to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Daiyu seemed to be not as friendly as before. He only thought that she was old and knew the etiquette.Daiyu saw that Baoyu no longer whispered and asked for warmth, and she was even more convinced that what she heard was true.Baochai and Aunt Xue haven't been seen for a long time, Daiyu doesn't know about Xue Pan, and also suspects that Baochai may be the betrothed one.

Since then, Daiyu has no intention of eating and drinking, and gradually loses her strength and does not want to talk.Fortunately, Tanchun sent his servant to visit Daiyu, Xueyan quietly asked: "Is the prefect's daughter really settled?"

The servant said: "I recently heard that the masters and ladies disagree. I also heard that the old lady already has someone in her heart, and she is in our garden."

Zijuan heard that Xueyan was chattering again, so she hurriedly pushed her away and said, "If you have anything to say, don't worry about forcing her to death?"

Unexpectedly, starting from this time, Daiyu was willing to drink water, and gradually she was able to eat something, and her illness seemed to be getting better day by day.

Mrs. Wang guessed what was on Daiyu's mind, and said privately to Sister Feng: "This girl Lin is strangely ill, and she is also very strangely well. It must be because of Baoyu. She is scheming, unlike Baoyu who is stupid and does not avoid suspicion."

Sister Feng said: "It would be suitable to match her with Baoyu, but she is weaker."

Mrs. Wang said: "She had this idea in her heart early, so it can be seen that she is not a serious child, but Bao girl is safe."

Sister Feng laughed and said, "Then we should find a suitable family for Miss Lin. Otherwise, if she is really selfish and knows that she is destined for Bao girl, there will be troubles!"

Mrs. Wang said: "Of course it is Baoyu who gets married first, and then finds someone else for Miss Lin. After all, Baoyu is older. This is what the empress meant. I have to go and ask for instructions."

Aunt Xue's only son had an accident, and the situation of the Xue family naturally dimmed. Needless to say, spending money for Xue Pan was like running water, and even Baochai almost fell ill.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang and Jia's mother agreed, and adding Yuan Chun's opinion, Jia Zheng also agreed to the marriage of Baoyu and Baochai, because he said to Mrs. Wang: "The Xue family is very busy. Let's make a decision next spring. After my wife's birthday, I will officially marry you, so go tell Aunt Xue."

Aunt Xue was naturally very satisfied with this marriage, and the date soon settled down, Baochai and Daiyu were still kept in the dark.

Jia Zheng's life was not easy, because of the incident in Yuanchun, he almost became the target of Wu Guifei's father, Wu Tianyou, and Wu Tianyou's party also held Jia Zheng tightly. Jia Zheng spent every day like walking on thin ice.

Yuan Chun is pregnant, she always puts the child first, bears it if she can, and only thinks that everything will be fine after the child is born. She doesn't have to be a royal concubine, as long as she can live safely in the deep palace with the child, she is satisfied.But how could Concubine Wu Gui give her this chance?The unstoppable persecution every day made Yuanchun nervous, afraid that if he was not careful, he would be doomed.

Yuan Chun was originally a kind and elegant person, if she hadn't held the piano to protect her with death everywhere, she would have died in this turbulent battle long ago.

She knew very well in her heart that she was the only backer left in the Jia family. If she died, the family would also be destroyed.Therefore, she must do her best to survive.
