Chapter 167 Hearts(1/2)
At this moment, Xue Baochai really felt that she would lose all her face for the rest of her life.
Especially when he is still in front of Jia Cong, he has almost no face to live!
What made her even more angry was that she didn't know about this at all.
Originally, she was talking at Tanchun in Rongfu and talking about yesterday's events, and most of them were upset by Jia Cong.
It was Aunt Xue who suddenly asked Ying'er to call her back and said that there was something wrong.
Not long after she came back, Baoyu came, and then Jia Cong came.
But Jia Cong would definitely not think she didn't know. Besides, even if she didn't know, her mother and brother planned to savior her life, she felt disgraced and ungrateful...
Baochai was so angry that she trembled, and she didn't even have the courage to look at Jia Cong. Tears of shock and anger rolled down.
Not only Baochai, but even Baoyu felt that his aunt was really unauthentic and had lost her dignity and kindness.
Seeing that even the dust in the air in the Lixiang courtyard was stained with an awkward temperament, Jia Cong laughed and said, "It is a good thing that Brother Xue has such a thought. Sister Bao, what's wrong with you?"
When Baochai heard this, she couldn't speak sourly in her heart. She only thought that Jia Cong was talking slander and thought that he would be looked down upon by him in the future. Her heart was like a knife and tears kept flowing.
Although Aunt Xue felt sorry for her, she felt even more sorry for her son.
It's okay to curse a few times, but now Xue Pan is thinking about doing big things, so she can't bear to scold her anyway.
I was thinking about how to get back to this embarrassing situation...
Jia Cong didn't need her to do it, and smiled at Baochai and said, "Sister Bao, this world is so difficult. If you want to live in the world, you will inevitably use your brain and use your means.
Not to mention anything else, Baoyu should know that before my aunt and sister Bao came, I was abused and scolded by my nanny in the East Road Courtyard, and I was short of food and clothing, and almost couldn't live.
Later, even the pen and ink of the book were burned away. I was forced to do so, so I could only use some means.
On the birthday of the eldest master, he exposed his wounds to the old lady, master, and wife, and he was able to survive until now.
This move is not Cong's original wish, so he has to do it.
The same was true in the Xinghua Pavilion that day.
I don’t know how difficult it is to study for Cao Zi’ang, and it is very difficult to win the top spot.
But since he was insulting me and acting in a despicable manner, I had to take the initiative.
It is also a means of self-protection.
In life, although we must always insist on being upright and upright in our hearts, we must not lack the means of adaptation, otherwise wouldn’t we become pedantic?
Brother Xue wants to run soap and also wants to get in touch with the Ye family. He has a motivated intention and is not harmful to me.
Therefore, Sister Bao really doesn't need to do this.
Unless Brother Xue and I can be like Baoyu, we will never be as rich and idle as a lifetime, we will never have the character of his daughter."
Baoyu was caught in the shooting, but he didn't think he was annoyed. Instead, he looked at Jia Cong with a faint admiration:
This guy is really good at hype...
But Baochai only felt that every word Jia Cong said was engraved in her heart.
What kind of people are most comfortable to get along with and can win the most favorable impression?
There is no doubt that people with a consistent view of the three views, especially those with a consistent view of the world and the outlook on life.
You will feel that everything the other person says and does is so satisfactory.
How could the good wind relies on the power of sending me to Qingyun to resist the means of leveraging power?
Just now I just couldn't erase my face...
Aunt Xue also breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "Amitabha! Brother is really a wise man! He can understand people's hearts...
This world is difficult, what can we do without any thought? I wonder how many hardships our Xue family has gone through back then..."
In order to save the face he had lost before, Aunt Xue began to tell the sinister story of the Xue family's experience back then.
But except for Jia Cong who is interested in listening to these things and learning for a long time, how can anyone else listen to them?
Baoyu is the most impatient with this.
He blocked all the sounds from the outside world and began to see what he cared about and liked in the room.
What does Baoyu like the most?
Of course, it's a pretty girl...
Otherwise, can't I go and see Xue Da's head?
It would be fine if Baoyu turned his eyes to Baochai and felt that his heart was about to be broken.
I saw Baochai's eyes fascinated, looking at Jia Cong's side face in a daze, and she couldn't care about the movements around her...
Baoyu naturally understood what this meant, because in the past, he also looked at Lin Meimei in this way.
If I hadn't liked it to the extreme, how could it be like this?
Besides, Baochai has a different personality than him. He acts freely and doesn't care what others care about.
But Baochai is different. She is cautious in her words and actions everywhere. She hides fools in front of others and keeps her clumsy behind her. She never makes a mistake.
Now she doesn't even care about all these things, which shows that she is so loving...
Thinking of this, Baoyu couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
Half a year ago, there was a saying that a good marriage was in the mansion.
Although he liked Lin Meimei even more, but...
Seeing that the girl who should have been looking for him but now looking at other men like this and facing him, Baoyu felt really sad.
But, even so, what can he do?
I can only sigh in my heart: The tears of my daughter's family in the world cannot be shed for him only...
Fortunately, after waiting for half an hour, Aunt Xue finally finished talking about the history of the Xue family's suffering and the hardships she had since become a widow.
Xue Pan lay on the kang, his head almost falling asleep little by little.
Baochai kept looking at Jia Cong quietly, but Baoyu was full of sorrow and grievances, sad about spring and autumn.
Thinking of the two poems written by Jia Cong, although he was not very willing, he had to admit that they were really good quatrains, which were not something he could do.
It's getting sadder...
"Listen to my aunt's words, it's really better than years of hard study. I heard that Jiangnan has beautiful scenery, picturesque country, and outstanding people. But I don't want the world to be so deceitful and dangerous. The powerful and gentry outside the land are grouped together to xenophobia and vaguely compete with the imperial power. The four families of Jia Shi Wang and Xue started their own family in Jiangnan, and were old clans in Jiangnan, and had countless friends in the past. But I don't want my aunt to be so difficult for years..."
Jia Cong sighed unexpectedly.
Aunt Xue sighed and said, "Actually, the wind and rain outside are covered by old friends. The most difficult thing to guard against is the family. If it weren't for your family and the Wang family's close relatives who helped us back, we wouldn't have been able to endure today."
It was precisely because of the difficulties I have been through over the years that your elder brother Xue was thinking about turning enemies into friends. He had told me before that it was to repay the favor. Your soap was sold in Feng's name and did not take any commission.
The Feng brand has door shops in the thirteen provinces, ninety-three provinces, and one hundred and forty prefectures.
Although many places have suffered disasters over the years and the market is unfavorable, the local door shops have been closed, but in Fusheng, Feng's font size is still very abundant.
I am afraid that it will be much more convenient than sending someone to you.
As Brother said before, if the powerful people from other provinces covet and compete, there will be many troubles.
Although the Ye family is extremely valuable, there are no troubles on the surface and there are too many trips in secret.
Secondly, if we really get along with the Ye family, it will be beneficial to our Xue family. As Brother said, it is not easy to be born, and if you have multiple ways, you can always be more convenient."
Jia Cong laughed and said, "What my aunt said is very true. It is indeed a good thing that can benefit both sides."
Aunt Xue was overjoyed when she heard this, and Xue Pan didn't care about being "shy" anymore and looked up at Jia Cong in surprise.
If he really wanted to get on the Ye family's line, Xue Pan felt that he would be able to travel in Shenjing City in the future.
These days, the more he inquired about the foundation of the Ye family, the more invincible he felt!
I thought that their Xue family, Jia family and Wang family were all first-class high-ranking families, but compared with the Ye family, it was not enough to see them.
Although the Ye family can only prosper for a lifetime, that is, when the empress dowager is alive.
But Xue Pan is not greedy either. I heard that the empress dowager is very healthy, and living for another 17,800 years is not a big problem, it is enough for him to be majestic.
At this moment, I was so excited that I didn't care about the pain of my butt and wanted to struggle.
However, Baochai was not so confident. With her understanding of Jia Cong, if he let others plot and step on it, it would not be his temperament, although this pit may not be a bad pit...
Sure enough, Jia Cong smiled and said, "Things are naturally good, but unfortunately, I have no right to decide on this matter. The Young Master Furong of the Ye family is actually not very concerned about soap. Today, he only sent a girl to come forward...
Let's do this. After finishing this time, I will take some time to go to Ye's mansion and talk about this matter with Mr. Furong, and see what her constitution is.
If she nodded, she could cooperate.
But even if you cooperate, you have to wait a long time.
The production of soap is very troublesome and the output is really limited.
The family’s money that I had saved for so long was sold out in half a day today.
I want to open the door again, but I have to wait ten days later..."
To be continued...
