Prince of the Red Chamber and his father

Chapter 15 Baochai's Birthday

"Grandma, don't worry, I sent Xing'er to inquire every day, and said that he is already well. The Eldest Master is afraid that the Second Master will catch cold when he goes out, so he will be detained in the yard and not allowed to go anywhere." Seeing Wang Xifeng's embarrassing face, Ping'er said, busy road.

"It just so happens that I need to discuss something with him. It's a good thing. I won't be able to touch him for half a year." Wang Xifeng complained.

"If grandma has something to do, send Xing'er to say that it's the same with the second master."

"Forget it, it's Miss Bao's birthday, how can it be passed around, I have to make my own decisions." Wang Xifeng sighed for a while.

"I can't blame grandma for making things difficult. This matter is really not easy to handle." If it is done well, it will offend the old lady and Miss Lin.

"It's not what you think. The old lady is old and mature. She suddenly asked about everyone's age and birthday yesterday. Didn't she remind Miss Bao that she will soon be old?" can't remember.

"So, everyone in the family knows what is going to happen?" If the old lady really wanted to promote Baochai's age to be married, then this birthday couldn't be too simple.

"The old lady wants to be the master for Miss Bao's birthday, but she only gave 20 taels of silver. It's really embarrassing. We can only add some from the public, and people will talk about how much we add."

"The big ones for birthdays are only two banquets. The banquets have not been interrupted since the beginning of the first month. It is not too much to add a little to the birthday. As for the theater, there is a ready-made troupe at home." Ping'er made the bed while Come up with an idea.

"That's the only way to go." Wang Xifeng took off the decorations and went to bed with Ping'er.

Xue Baochai's birthday was really lively.

When the spring came and Ji Huai greeted him far away, he mentioned Xue Baochai's birthday, and Yinfeng and Baye were stuck in the yard looking at each other and hated each other. They wanted to go out for a relaxing day, so they agreed to go to the theater together, and then they glared at each other.

Seeing that his son and daughter were going there, Ji Huaiyuan couldn't help thinking about it, and ordered Mrs. Xing to buy presents, and after dinner the next day, he went to listen to an opera in Mother Jia's backyard.

In order to get away from Yinfeng, Ba Ye sat between Yingchun and Xichun.

With such a big battle, everyone watched the play quietly, and Shi Xiangyun didn't casually say anything about being an actor.

When Jia Mu saw that the sisters were silent, she knew it was because of the old man. Seeing that he was enjoying watching the play, she could only suppress her displeasure. She was thinking about how to send the eldest son away when she heard the younger son come too. up.

Yinfeng and Ba Ye stood up and looked at each other before turning away.

"Where is Baoyu, why didn't you go to school?" When Kangxi came back from the Ministry of Industry, seeing that it was still early, he went to the family school to take a look, and saw that except for the wretched Jia Huan, none of the direct descendants were there. ?I am nearly half a hundred years old, who can I hand it over to after I seek to win the big position.

"It's Girl Bao's birthday today, so I'll make the decision and ask for leave from school." Mother Jia said, taking Baoyu into her arms.

"Girl's birthday, what do you want a cousin to do?" Kangxi dissatisfied, saw that besides Baoyu, there were two other people among the sisters. Even Baoyu can't match Baoyu's appearance as a scholar.

The Ningrong Second Mansion started with military exploits, but now they can't achieve martial arts, and none of the descendants in the next generation can support them. Kangxi sighed, is it possible to start from scratch?

Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai turned pale when they heard this.Normally, on Lin Daiyu's and Jia's Sanchun's birthdays, Jia Baoyu would not have to go to school.Originally, there was an old lady celebrating her birthday and she was secretly happy, but seeing that the eldest master's family also came, and the second master also rushed back from the Ministry of Industry, which gave the Xue family enough face. Who would dare to say no to this golden and jade marriage in the future?Unexpectedly, when the second master opened his mouth, he shaved the Xue family's face clean.

After Kangxi thought about it, he took a look at Mrs. Wang, and seeing her stiff and dull, he couldn't help but lose interest.He has seen Aunt Zhao before, and he doesn't understand how such a vulgar woman with empty appearance can win the favor of the master of the Duke's Mansion.

Then he looked at the girls sitting there. Li Wan was dressed in plain clothes without any makeup, and she was also the daughter-in-law.Beside Jia Mu must be the birthday girl, sitting with her head slightly lowered, Kangxi looked sideways and only saw a section of snow-white neck.The girl sitting next to Baoyu has never been seen before, she is graceful and elegant, and she is from which family?The one on the side was actually a bit free and easy, quite like a Manchu aunt.Kangxi's energy for the past two days was devoted to Chaotang and Jia's heirs, and these three girls had never met before.

"Second brother is busy with work, how can I have time to listen to the play? I just happen to have a few words to discuss with my second brother." When Kangxi looked at Lin Daiyu, Ji Huaiyuan sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly got up to block the way.

Yinreng couldn't help but glanced at Ba Ye, seeing him looking over with a pale face, he couldn't help but feel sick, so he forced himself to hold back.

Ji Huaiyuan held Kangxi back and started discussing about family studies. Kangxi listened to each sentence without saying a word, and Yinfeng and Ba Ye quietly resigned.

"What's on the mind of the emperor again?" After returning to the house, Ba Ye lay on the couch and asked Yinfeng with a smile.

"Didn't the eighth brother understand?" Seeing the fox eyes of the eighth master smiling, Yinfeng couldn't help being a little puzzled, isn't he the same as him now?Take this matter to vomit himself, won't he feel sick himself?This is to injure the enemy one thousand and self-injure eight hundred?Make it difficult for both of you?

"The imperial father is indeed worthy of being the imperial father. He has only been here for a few days, so he started to plan like this. He is nearly half a hundred years old. Could it be that he fell in love with that merchant girl?"

"Lin and Shi didn't miss it." Yinfeng frowned, the emperor's father usually had the most important family background, and he paid attention to the importance of son and mother, so he might not look down on Xue Baochai.It would be fine if he fell in love with Shi Xiangyun. If it was Sister Lin, it would be a little troublesome. Dad would definitely not sit idly by. Just look at his actions today.

"The imperial father is too impatient. If I really want to sit in that seat, do I need any beautiful women?" It is still a bit difficult to speak now. Although there is an official position of a member of the Ministry of Industry, there are wives and concubines who are over half a century old. I am afraid that there may not be any. If a noble girl from a noble family wants to marry, she really has to be close to the water to get the moon first, and she can't eat the grass by the side of the nest.

After listening to the words of the eighth master, Yinreng quite agrees, with the ability of the emperor's father, even if he is six or seventy years old, he will never have a younger brother or sister, so why be so anxious.

"If the imperial father seeks to seize the throne, what should the eighth younger brother do? Shall we fight again?" Yinfeng sighed.

"I don't know what the second brother thinks." Ba Ye squinted his eyes, and the warm spring sun reflected on the face of the prince, making it difficult to distinguish.
