The Red Mansions

Chapter 202 Blind marriage and dumb marriage

in the afternoon.

Jia Yun took time to come to Wu Wangfu for a follow-up consultation.

After entering the mansion, the eunuch of the palace led him to the king's bedroom.

As soon as he entered the room, the temperature dropped sharply. He looked around and found several basins of ice cubes in the corner.

The sixth prince is not recuperating in bed at the moment, but sitting by the window, reading a book.

Seeing Jia Yun coming in, the sixth prince put down the scroll and stood up to greet her.

"I have seen Your Highness." Jia Yun saluted.

The sixth prince smiled and said: "Your Majesty Jia, you don't need to be too polite. It's a hard work for you. Please come with me."

After saying that, he took Jia Yun to sit down at the round table in the inner room, and sent out all the maids waiting in the room.

After taking her pulse, Jia Yun pondered and said: "The remaining poison has not completely disappeared. I need to detoxify His Royal Highness' golden needle again, and then drink a few doses of medicinal soup to restore vitality."

Next, Jia Yun gave the sixth prince another injection, and all the remaining poison was gone.

The sixth prince was grateful for his kindness, and in words, he wanted to get closer to Jia Yun.

After all, Jia Yun is not only valued by the emperor, but her first-hand medical skills can save lives at critical moments.

However, Jia Yun's reaction was somewhat flat, respectful and distant, which disappointed the sixth prince.

Before leaving, the sixth prince insisted on giving him a pair of mutton fat jade pendants, but Jia Yun refused several times, but still accepted it.

Come out from the palace.

Although it was still early, Jia Yun didn't go to the Yamen to work, but went home directly.

In fact, Yushi's working hours are relatively free, and it all depends on self-consciousness.

The power of censors to play rumors and hear rumors is actually given to them to inquire about the people of the world for the emperor.

The censor was originally set up to deter corrupt officials and clean up the social atmosphere, but it was gradually transformed into a weapon of court party struggle.

When he got home, Xiren took off his loose clothes and waited for Jia Yun to change into them.

"I've said it countless times, you just let Xiangling and the others do this kind of job of serving people," Jia Yun said helplessly.

Xiren turned his head and glanced at Xiangling and the others outside the door, then turned around and asked, "Does the master despise concubines?"

"It's not that I dislike you, it's that I don't have much work here. If you rush to do it, they will be uneasy." Jia Yun shook her head.

Generally speaking, he still takes care of the feelings of the maid at home.

Although they are slaves, they are human beings after all, and human beings will have emotions.

Comparing your heart with your heart, if you can prevent them from being wronged for nothing, try to accommodate them as much as possible.

Xiren sighed, nodded and said: "Okay, from now on, the concubines will listen to the master and stop taking their jobs."

After all, she has been a maid since she was a child, even if she is an aunt, she still can't take time off.

Jia Yun has reminded her several times, and today is the most direct, so she almost said that she is not following the rules.

Although this matter is not a big deal, it is very important to Xiang Ling and the others.

Because this is their value in Jia Yun's room.

If Xiren did all these tasks, not only would Xiangling and other girls not feel relaxed, but they would feel restless.

But they were embarrassed to tell Xiren directly, after all, Xiren is also the master now, and there is no maid to teach the master the rules and how to do things.

Seeing that Xiren felt aggrieved, Jia Yun hugged her and kissed her little mouth, and said with a smile:
"You are also here as a maid, if you know that Xiangling and the others have nothing to do in the room, you should be in a panic."

Xiren bit his lip, nodded lightly and said: "The concubine knows all these reasons, but she puts all her thoughts on the master, and wishes to take all her heart out and give it to the master."

"Haha, don't say it is so bloody, it makes one's scalp tingle just thinking about it." Jia Yun laughed loudly.

Talking and laughing, Jia Yun took Xi Ren and all the maids out to Xue Baochai's courtyard.

Today Xue Baochai's yard is not as lively as before, because she is pregnant, and the family members try not to make noise about her.

Under the shade of the big tree in the yard, Mrs. Xue Wang was chatting and laughing with Xue Baochai.

Jia Yun stepped forward to salute Mrs. Xue Wang.

Mrs. Xue Wang stepped forward to hold his hand, said with a smile: "My Di'er, you came just in time. Pan'er told me this morning that there is a good girl in the third room of your Jia family. Is it true?"

"Um, I just said that I can ask my ancestors to help me set up a relationship. I don't really know if there are any good girls." Jia Yun hesitated.

There must be many girls in the third room, but neither the original owner nor him paid much attention to it.

After all, girls nowadays, as long as they are over twelve or thirteen years old, they will be kept in the house, the door is not out, the second door is not open, and they rarely show their faces.

So even if Jia Yun knew that there were unmarried girls in the third house, she still didn't know their looks and characters.

Xue Wang patted Jia Yun's hand and said, "Baochai and I have discussed it carefully, and the marriage of Pan'er really cannot be delayed any longer."

"If we can find a virtuous and fertile girl from your house, we don't care about the other party's family status."

"So, I would like to ask Yun'er to help you with this matter. Put more thought into it. If Pan'er can start a family sooner, he can also calm down earlier, and Baochai and I can also calm down sooner."

Jia Yun agreed wholeheartedly: "Okay, I'll discuss this matter with my ancestors later. If Sanfang really has a suitable girl, I'm still willing to help with the matter of getting married."

As he said, he pulled out his hands without a trace, and then walked to Xue Baochai's side, carefully sizing up and checking her complexion.

"Why do you look at my family like this? Is there anything wrong?" Xue Baochai touched his face and asked doubtfully.

Jia Yun shook her head and smiled, "That's not true, I'm just a little surprised why you haven't been happy yet?"

Xue Baochai hesitated, "Isn't it time yet?"

"It stands to reason that you should be sick in two more months. It may be because of your special constitution, so you haven't been sick yet." Jia Yun guessed.

Xue Baochai said worriedly: "My family is not happy, so it won't affect the child, right?"

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter, don't think about it." Jia Yun smiled.

Xue Baochai breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "When you are pregnant with a child, you must pay attention to this and that. There are taboos about food, clothing, housing, and transportation. My family is almost bewildered."

Jia Yun said with a smile: "Don't worry about it too much, just be generous. As long as you don't do strenuous exercise and drink blood-melting medicine, there will be no big problem."

Mrs. Xue Wang who was on the other side answered, "Baochai, you should rest assured now. Even Yun'er said that you don't need to worry too much, and you don't need to have too much pressure yourself."

That's what I said, but Xue Baochai was pregnant with her first child, so she valued it very much, so she was naturally cautious, lest something might go wrong.

Jia Yun knew that pregnant women were not emotionally stable, so she could only comfort her in a low voice.

Xue Wang saw that the couple had something to say, so she got up and said goodbye and went back to the guest room.

"Why didn't I see Brother Xue today?" Jia Yun asked Xue Baochai.

Xue Baochai shook her head and sighed: "I went out early in the morning, so I guess I'm going somewhere to be happy again?"

As she said that, she hesitated and said, "Husband, what should I do if I conceive a girl?"

"What should I do? Isn't the girl pretty good? If you want a son, you will do it in your next life." Jia Yun said with a smile.

Xue Baochai thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's all I can think of. The slave family still hopes that the first child will be a son."

"You, you used to be very cheerful, why are you so obsessed with horns?" Jia Yun pinched her little nose and said.

Xue Baochai sighed: "My family doesn't know what's going on. Before I was pregnant, I thought about having a child every day. Now that I'm pregnant, I think about whether it's a boy or a girl. I can't calm down."

"I really don't know what to say about you. By the way, you are pregnant now. Let Keqing take care of some family matters. Don't work too hard." Jia Yun warned.

Xue Baochai nodded and said: "Mr. Qin came here early this morning to talk about this matter. I have already handed over the family account books and warehouse keys to her. After she has fully mastered it, I will not care about anything."

While talking, Lin Daiyu came in from the outside.

"Ah, why did you come back so early today?" Lin Daiyu was surprised when she saw Jia Yun was there.

Jia Yun laughed and said, "I'll be back first when I have time."

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was walking awkwardly, Xue Baochai whispered in Jia Yun's ear, "You want her body?"

"Well, I couldn't bear it last night, so I want it." Jia Yun said truthfully.

Xue Baochai glanced at Lin Daiyu, stood up, held her hand and said, "Now we are really sisters."

Lin Daiyu blushed, glanced at Jia Yun, then turned to Xue Baochai, "Is it easy for others to see me?"

Xue Baochai shook her head and said, "That's not true. It's just that you deliberately walked with your legs crossed. I just doubt it."

Jia Yun stepped forward, pulled the two of them to sit down and talked, and then asked Lin Daiyu, "Are you still hurt?"

"Okay, I'm just not used to it." Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and said.

Jia Yun frowned and said, "It shouldn't be. Now that the injury is healed, how can you not get used to it? Isn't it the same as usual?"

Xue Baochai patted his arm, and said angrily, "Sister Lin has a thin skin, why are you asking so many questions, she will return to normal soon."

Jia Yun chuckled, looking at the two gorgeous women on the left and the right, feeling very satisfied.

Xue Baochai rolled his eyes at him, and said, "Don't smirk, since you're free now, go talk to your ancestors and help me find a sister-in-law, so that my mother and I won't have to worry about it."

Lin Daiyu asked curiously what was going on.

Xue Baochai said the matter with a smile.

Lin Daiyu asked strangely, "Is this a matchmaker for your brother?"

"Uh, that's not true. If there is a good girl in any family, the Xue family will invite a serious matchmaker to come to the door." Jia Yun explained.

After saying that, he got up and greeted the two women, then went out to find Jia Dailing.

Lin Daiyu watched him leave in a daze.

Xue Baochai smiled and did not disturb her.

At this moment, Lin Daiyu has just broken her body, and her relationship with Jia Yun is getting closer. When the honey is mixed with oil, she can't wait to get tired of being together all the time.

Xue Baochai also came here in this way, and she understood Lin Daiyu's mood and feelings very well at the moment, so she didn't make fun of her.

When she came back to her senses, Lin Daiyu saw Xue Baochai looking at her with a smile, blushed, and whispered, "Why is Sister Bao staring at me like this?"

"Hehe, I didn't do anything, it was just a little accident." Xue Baochai said with a slight smile.

Lin Daiyu knew what she meant, sighed, and said, "I've already restrained myself very much. After all, I couldn't restrain myself when I was so emotional. Am I being unfeminine?"

Xue Baochai shook her head and said: "That's not true. Before we got married, my husband and I were too affectionate. If it weren't for the fact that we passed the door very quickly, I probably wouldn't be more restrained than you."

"But you have to pay attention to one thing. No matter what, you must not conceive before you get married. It's not that your sister is jealous of you, but it's bad for your reputation."

Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "Thank you, Sister Bao, for reminding me. If you don't tell me about this, I will pay attention to it. Besides, brother Yun also said last night that he has a secret method of contraception. When will I want a baby?" Talk to him again."

"Let's not talk about me, but you ask Brother Yun to introduce a girl from their clan, can you hold Brother Xue down?"

Xue Baochai knew that her elder brother was a rascal, so she pondered: "My husband said that some of the girls in his clan have practiced kung fu, so they should be able to hold my elder brother down?"

Lin Daiyu was surprised and said: "Look for someone who has learned kung fu, aren't you afraid that Brother Xue will be beaten every day in the future?"

"Hee hee, as long as I can control my brother, even if my sister-in-law is a bit more aggressive, that's fine." Xue Baochai said with a smile.

……

Jia Dailing's family.

Hearing Jia Yun's explanation of the purpose of coming, Jia Dailing hesitated and said: "Brother Yun, Xue's family is a big family, so naturally there are good girls in our room, but it's not right for this family to be wrong, I'm afraid that after the girl goes, she will be wronged. what!"

Jia Yun nodded and said, "That's why we need to find someone with a more generous and cheerful personality, who can calm people down."

After pondering for a while, Jia Dailing said: "Alright, no matter how troublesome Mr. Xue is, the girl went to Xue's house. She has no worries about food and clothing. After all, she is going to enjoy happiness, and she is still a regular wife. Anyway, she is a high-ranking man. This Let me help."

Jia Yun nodded, took out two ingots of silver from her sleeve, and handed them to Jia Dailing.

"If there is a girl who is more suitable, the ancestors will send the 20 taels of silver to let the girl buy some good outfits and dress up, and then I will ask the Xue family to invite a matchmaker to come to the door."

Jia Dailing didn't refuse, took the silver and said with a smile: "Let's say first, the silver is sent out, no matter whether it is successful or not, you can't get it back."

Jia Yun laughed, bluntly saying no.

After discussing the business, Jia Yun and Jia Dailing chatted for a while, then took their leave and left.

Jia Dailing moved very quickly, and the letter came in the evening.

It is said that the girl from a family in Sanfang is not only beautiful and a good female celebrity, but also good at martial arts and has a straightforward personality, which should meet Jia Yunti's requirements.

So Jia Yun told Xue Wangshi and Xue Baochai the general information about the girl's family, and told Xue Pan again when Xue Pan came back in the evening.

Xue Wang was most concerned about this matter, and went home the next day to ask the matchmaker to take care of it.

Xue Pan, on the other hand, heard that the other party knew martial arts, and three or five people couldn't get close to him. He was a little scared, so he was more entangled.

The key point was that Jia Yun took the initiative to handle this matter, and he couldn't refuse. When drinking with Jia Yun several times, he wanted to inquire about the details of the girl's family.

In fact, he asked Jia Yun, but Jia Yun didn't know either.

Jia Yun also only listened to Jia Dailing's general remarks. He had heard of the girl's name before, but had never met a real person. He didn't know much about what the girl looked like, and her temperament was better than Xue Pan's.

These years, blind marriages and dumb marriages, until the end, both parties are in a state of ignorance.
