The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 220 Choose to accept fate
When Rongguo Mansion was in trouble because of Jia Baoyu's marriage, Mu Xu was saying goodbye to Dai Quan with a smile, "Thank you, Eunuch Dai, for your help this time, and I appreciate your disrespect!"

Dai Quan waved his hand and said indifferently, "What's the point, it's just a trivial matter, there's no need for the prince to say thank you."

"Haha, then I'll take my leave and come visit Eunuch Dai again when I have time."

"Then our family is looking forward to your son's grand visit again, and we will definitely sweep the couch to welcome you."

Watching Mu Xu leave, Dai Quan stood at the door shaking his head and laughed. He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the prince of Dongping. Thank you at the door.

Dai Quan has served people all his life, and he has a deep understanding of people's hearts, so although he was a little curious about Mu Xu's purpose, he didn't ask any more questions.As he himself said, this is just a trivial matter, and it is worthwhile to sell the favor of the dignified Prince Dongping.

A few days later, suddenly a servant came to report on this day, saying that Jia Lian from the Rongguo Mansion asked to see him. Dai Quan was puzzled when he heard the news.After all, he has no friendship with people from Ningrong and Rongfu, and the only one who has some money exchanges is Jia Zhen, who is not here anymore.Curious in his heart, he ordered Jia Lian to be invited in.

As soon as Jia Lian came in, he first said hello to Dai Quan respectfully, and then said some unnutritious polite words, until he saw that Dai Quan was a little impatient, Jia Lian hesitated to talk about his reason for coming.

Hearing that Jia Lian's purpose was also related to the girl from the Xia family, Dai Quan was very surprised at first, and even thought maliciously that this girl surnamed Xia might be a stunning beauty, and that the boy from the Jia family came here to marry Mu Xu. Fight for women.

It wasn't until Jia Lian finished explaining the ins and outs of this matter that Dai Quan realized that he was thinking badly, and then he laughed at himself, yes, he is the son of Dongping Prince, the cousin of the current emperor, what kind of woman can't get it, and what kind of woman is it? Where would he need the help of an old eunuch who has lost his power?
Facing Jia Lian's request, Dai Quan refused with a smile on his face, "Master Jia, please take the gift back, our family won't accept it. My god-granddaughter has a beautiful face and a virtuous personality. You guys from the Jia family can definitely earn money by marrying her, but don't be ignorant of your blessings."

"My father-in-law has something to say, and I'm just running errands for my old grandmother. I don't have any other intentions." Jia Lian was afraid that Dai Quan would be misunderstood, so he hurriedly dismissed him.

"That's good. For the sake of the deceased old man, let's advise you, boy, don't meddle in this matter." Dai Quan is a good at observing words and demeanor. As soon as Jia Lian said it, he immediately Read his implication.

"Yes, thank you for your kindness, father-in-law. Then I won't disturb your father-in-law's rest." Jia Lian didn't delay at all, and didn't mention the gift, just turned around and wanted to leave.When he walked to the door, he heard Dai Quan behind him talking to himself, "We don't have to worry about this even if we make trouble in the palace. There is no one who regrets the marriage just after signing the marriage certificate. Isn't this driving people to death! "

Jia Lian's heart moved, and he realized that Dai Quan was teaching him how to do business with Jia's mother, so he turned his head and saluted her, "Thank you, Dai Gong, for your reminder, when I go back, I will definitely persuade my grandmother to let my cousin marry Miss Xia as soon as possible. "

"A child can be taught, you boy can go."

Jia Lian went back to Rongguo Mansion, and after seeing Jia Mu, he added fuel and vinegar to what Dai Quan had said, but Jia Mu had nothing to do at this time, she just sat on the couch with a cold face and said nothing.Jia Lian stood at the bottom, unable to bear the atmosphere in the room, so she winked at Wang Xifeng who was waiting beside her.

Wang Xifeng rolled his eyes at him, and had no choice but to cautiously ask Mother Jia, "Old lady, do you think the mansion is going to start preparations, after all, it will be a month and a half away."

After Jia Mu heard the words, she wanted to get angry at Wang Xifeng, but after thinking about it, it made sense, and now she can only admit it by pinching her nose.That being the case, it's better to get the marriage done quickly, so as not to offend Dai Quan, she knows nothing but the power of those great eunuchs.

"Forget it, let Zhu'er's daughter-in-law open a private treasury for the second room. Together, you two will take out Baoyu's wedding needs. If there is anything missing, report to me. As for Lian'er, you go and tell your second uncle. He asked Liu official media to confirm the time for the next appointment."

As Jia's mother nodded and agreed to Jia Baoyu's marriage, the whole Rongguo Mansion became busy all at once, with servants coming in and out of shopping every day, and people who were acquainted with Rongguo Mansion gradually got wind of it.For example, when Aunt Xue knew about it, she took the opportunity to visit her daughter and told Baochai about it as a surprise.

"Who do you think will be Baoyu's future wife?" Baochai opened her almond eyes in disbelief.

"It's the Xia Jingui I was going to tell your brother earlier."

"This is too surprising. How could the Rongguo Mansion set up such a marriage for Baoyu?"

"Who says no, I really want to see the face of the old lady of Jia's family now. She always disliked my son before, saying that our family can't climb up to theirs, and now she has found a merchant woman , just Xia Jingui, hmph, she is not worthy to carry your shoes!" Aunt Xue gloated.

"Mom, what are you talking about, and you don't even look at where it is. If those words fall into the ears of someone who cares, I will die!" Baochai was speechless at her mother's indiscriminate words.

Seeing that her daughter was annoyed, Aunt Xue immediately realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, and quickly admitted her mistake, "It's my fault, I said the wrong thing, you must not get angry, don't forget that there is a little ancestor in your stomach right now." Woolen cloth!"

After coaxing Baochai a few words, Aunt Xue looked at her daughter's swollen belly, sat next to her and asked in a low voice, "You are pregnant now, did your son-in-law say to raise your position?"

Baochai rubbed his belly, shook his head lightly, and said, "He doesn't care about these things at all on weekdays. He treats all of us equally except for a little difference in his treatment of Sister Lin, and the most annoying thing is that others pay attention to etiquette at home. I reckon, He didn't have that awareness at all."

"Ah, what should I do, or else you will give your son-in-law a hint in private?"

"How can I open my mouth about this kind of thing? If he misunderstands that I value fame and fortune, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?" Baochai looked at it rather openly, "Besides, I think it's good now. We've been married for so long, and we don't even have a face. I've been popular, he loves me a lot on weekdays, what more can I ask for!"

Seeing the happy expression on her daughter's face, Aunt Xue was happy for her, but at the same time she was a little angry, "You have only been married to him for a long time, and you have completely regarded yourself as the Mu family. Do you think it is my mother who insists on making you fight?" Well, I was thinking about the child in your womb! Don't even think about it, the title of the palace has already fallen on the son of Lin girl, if you don't fight, what will my grandson have in the future?"

Baochai frowned slightly, "This...Mom, you are thinking too long-term, let's not talk about whether I am a man or a woman in my stomach, even if it is a boy, then there is no need to worry so much, our family has a big business, can we Wouldn’t it be possible to have a family business without him?”

"Bah, bah, what are you talking about! I went to the temple to ask for a lottery, and the Bodhisattva said that your birth will definitely be a son."

Naturally, Baochai also hoped that she would have a boy, but she still comforted Aunt Xue, "Who can say this kind of thing for sure, and our elder son said that it is the same to have boys and girls, and he prefers girls to boys. So, don't worry about it."

Aunt Xue took it for granted that the son-in-law said this to reassure his daughter, and she was very satisfied and praised Mu Xu.

After sending her mother away, Baochai sat on the couch, and involuntarily began to think wildly in her mind. For some reason, when she heard her mother mention Jia Baoyu's marriage just now, she felt for no reason that this matter could not escape Mu Xu's handwriting.Although there is no sign to prove this, she thinks so, otherwise how to explain so many coincidences.She didn't want to defend Jia Baoyu, but she was simply very curious and couldn't figure out how Mu Xu did it.
