Xue Baoqin - Chapter22

Baoqin's words put Yinchun at ease. She immediately nodded and said, "Sister Chin is right. We'll do as you say."

Seeing that Yinchun had agreed, Ping 'er said, "Okay, then it's settled."

Hearing this, Wang Zhuer's family members couldn't help but collapse to the ground. Their eyes were filled with despair.

Yinchun didn't have much of a place in their hearts. They were used to putting on a brave front in front of Yinchun.

They didn't expect that today's occasional complacency would cause their entire family to suffer.

If they went back like this, they would probably be beaten to death by Wang Zhuer, right?

Thinking of this, Wang Zhuer's family members hurriedly knelt beside Yinchun's feet and hugged her legs. They begged bitterly, "Miss, Miss, we won't dare to do it again. Please speak for us and spare our family … I'll go back and immediately redeem that silk golden phoenix hairpin. I won't dare to do it again. Miss, I beg you …"

Seeing Wang Zhuer's family members' pitiful faces covered in tears and snot, Yinchun's eyes couldn't help but show signs of hesitation.

At this moment, Baoqin walked over, picked up the Taishang Induction Scripture, and stuffed it into Yinchun's hands. He smiled and said, "Go read your book. Sister Ping will take care of things here!"

After hearing Baoqin's words, Yinchun glanced at Wang Zhuer's family members again. She sighed softly and shifted her gaze back to her book.

Ping 'er frowned and asked, "What silk golden phoenix hairpin? What's going on?"

Hearing Ping 'er's question, Xiu Ju hurriedly explained, "This Wang Zhuer's family pawned our Miss's silk golden phoenix hairpin. We went to her to redeem it, but she beat me up. She's really hateful."

Ping 'er said, "How can this be?

You deserve to die a thousand times over! "

As she spoke, she called two older female servants in. She pointed at Wang Zhuer's wife, who was still crying and begging, and said, "Take her out. She is not allowed to enter the garden again!"

Wang Zhuer's family was taken away, crying to the heavens. Qiushuang Zhai immediately quieted down.

Xiu Ju hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Ping 'er. Her eyes were filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Sister Ping' er, for getting rid of this scourge for our Miss."

Ping'er smiled and said, "This is what I should do. Why should I thank you?"

On the other side, Yinchun said hesitantly, "Her mother-in-law is my wet nurse after all. If this matter spreads, will it affect my reputation?"

Ping'er did not answer immediately. Baochai smiled and said, "Even though they are old, servants who have made contributions should be tolerated, but those who rely on their age and contributions to climb above their masters should not be tolerated.

In the long run, what kind of master would it be if they were neither master nor servant?

Second Younger Sister, you don't have to worry. Your wet nurse has a good reputation. Everyone knows what her family is like. They won't say anything bad about you. "

Yingchun was at ease when she heard this, and she revealed a beautiful smile.

When Baoqin saw this, he couldn't help but be startled. Only then did he realize that Yinchun's appearance was the best among the Three Chun sisters.

It was just that she was usually quiet and quiet, which made the high-spirited Tanchun stand out.

Now that she looked as if all her worries were gone, her outstanding appearance was immediately revealed.

It seemed that the quality of a person's temperament greatly increased the appearance of the person.

Not long after Yinchun's wet nurse's family was driven away, an extremely absurd thing happened in the Grand View Garden.

That was, for some reason, Lady Jia sent people, led by Wang Xifeng, to search the Grand View Garden.

If word of this got out, people would probably laugh their heads off.

Tanchun's words that night reached the ears of the Xue Clan sisters, causing them to sigh with emotion.

Baochai said, "For a big family like ours, if outsiders want to kill their way in, they won't be able to kill us in a short time. Only by killing our own family members first can we be defeated … Third Younger Sister's words are really enlightening."

Baoqin said, "What's the use of listening to her?

If the head of the family doesn't listen, then her words are useless. "

Baochai shook his head and silently sighed with emotion for a while before saying, "Younger Sister, I think it's hard for us to stay here for a long time.

What do you think? "

Although the Xue family still had two males, when it came to important matters, it was still the two young ladies who made the decisions.

Baoqin said, "I also think the same. We should move out.

They searched everyone but left us here. I don't know if they're protecting us or harming us.

If this is the case, how can other people feel at ease? "

Baochai nodded and said, "Don't worry about scarcity, but worry about uneven distribution. That's the reason."

The two of them talked about Zi Jia's family for a while, and finally talked about their own family's matters.

Baochai said, "Brother Jian, you saw a house a few days ago. You said that you've already negotiated the price, right?"

Baoqin nodded and said, "Yes, that house belongs to the former Minister of Justice. The owner's surname is Gu.

Now that Minister Gu has retired and returned to his hometown, the whole family will follow him.

Therefore, they want to sell the house.

Every household item was complete. Elder Brother said that although the garden was not as big as the Grand View Garden here, it was still neat and tidy.

It's said that it has the style of Jiangnan gardens.

Sister will definitely like it when she sees it. "

Baochai said, "Jiangnan gardens are the best in the world. Since that's the case, it must be good."

As they were talking, a young servant girl opened the golden bamboo curtain and Xue Wu slowly walked in, wearing an upright green robe.

He really deserved to be called a handsome young master with outstanding grace.

Baoqin and Baochai both stood up. After greeting each other, Baoqin asked, "Brother, you look happy. You must have found a house?"

Xue Wu took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Yes. Originally, Minister Gu's wife didn't want to sell it to us when she heard that our family was only a merchant family.

Later, I mentioned that sister is this year's beauty candidate and will enter the palace in a few days.

Only then did Minister Gu's wife agree.

Today, we've signed the contract and paid the money.

Sister, now we have our own house. "

Baochai heard this and asked, "How much money did you spend?"

Xue Wu stretched out three fingers and said, "A total of three hundred thousand taels of silver."

Baochai was speechless and said, "Isn't that too much?"

"It's not much, it's a fair price." Xue Wu hurriedly said, "Their garden was renovated two years ago and took a lot of effort.

Although it's not as big as the garden here, the scenery is not bad at all.

The furniture is also neat and tidy. Almost all of it is made of yellow rosewood and rosewood.

Moreover, the neighbors are all officials' families and the location is very good.

This price is not considered expensive. "

Baochai heard this and felt that the price was fair and did not say anything else.

Since they had found a house, they should choose a day to move out.

Baochai was still hesitating about whether or not they should move back to their family's old residence when she heard Baoqin say, "Why do you have to do this?

Why don't you move into the new house with us?

Your family's old residence is not in a good location and has been in disrepair for a long time. If you want to move in, you'll have to repair it.

Now that you don't want to live in a good house, why waste time?

Moreover, when I enter the palace, my brother will be the only master at home. How can I be at ease?

Sister's family will move in and take care of each other … "

Hearing Baoqin's words, Baochai nodded in agreement.

She originally wanted to move into Baoqin's house, but she didn't know how to bring it up.

Because in the future, the whole family would rely on Baoqin to take care of them. Wouldn't it be more convenient to cultivate feelings if they lived together?

As such, after Bao Qin's persuasion, she agreed to it.

Thus, after finding an auspicious day to move, Aunt Xue took Baochai and Baoqin to say goodbye to Mother Jia.

Mother Jia was eager for the Xue family to move out as soon as possible. Therefore, she only pretended to say a few words and quickly relented.

On the other hand, Lady Wang was probably very unwilling to let the Xue family leave. However, she was still grounded, so her wishes were not important.

The Xue family was finally going to move out.

In order to prevent Jia Baoyu from doing something absurd, Mother Jia specially sent him away on the day the Xue family moved out.

The Xue family smoothly left the mansion and was about to board the carriage and head back to their home.

The sisters sent the Xue Clan sisters off until they reached the Second Gate. They were very reluctant to part with them.

Especially Daiyu, her eyes were red from crying.

Baoqin held her hand and couldn't help but laugh, "You are really made of water. Why are you crying?

It's not like we won't see each other in the future. After we settle down, we will immediately send an invitation to invite you to stay for a few days. "

Daiyu held Baoqin's hand and cried, "You must remember your words. Come and pick me up as soon as possible so that I can relax for a few days …" As she spoke, she choked up and couldn't say anything else.

Baoqin saw her like this and felt very sad. He knew that Daiyu's life in the Jia family wasn't good. He nodded fiercely and said, "Of course I remember. You must take care of yourself.

Don't cry and eat more. Do you remember? "

Immediately, the two of them left in tears. Daiyu didn't turn back until Xue Baoqin's back could no longer be seen.

After returning, she was depressed. It took a few days for her to feel better, so I won't talk about it here.

Baoqin and Baochai both boarded their newly purchased Jade Lid Zhu Yu Eight Treasures carriage. The wheels rolled as they left Ningrong Street and headed towards Wutong Street where their new residence was located.

When they reached the street, Baoqin lifted the curtain and saw a tall and lush old wutong tree at the end of the street. Only then did he know the origin of the street's name.

Baochai looked outside and said with a smile, "People say that phoenixes live in wutong trees. This is really true.

Isn't my younger sister that phoenix?

She deserves to live here. "

Baoqin also said with a smile, "Then sister also lives here. Isn't she also a phoenix?"

Baochai said with a smile, "My phoenix is fake. Yours is real …"

The two sisters talked and laughed along the way. Not long after, they saw the carriage stop. Xue Wu's voice came from outside, "Sister, Sister Baochai, we are home. Let's get off."
