Jia Rong didn't know what was going on outside at the moment, so he entered the room eagerly. Xue Baochai was really the only one in the room. She was wearing a honey-colored placket, leaning on the couch, holding her head with one hand and looking out the window at the greenery.
The open sleeves slide down smoothly, revealing a snow-white arm.
What a beautiful girl taking a nap, with her bright eyes and long eyelashes that are also moving. Incense slowly rises from the incense burner next to it, and the gray-white incense cloud is particularly conspicuous in the simple room without any unnecessary furnishings. This fragrance seemed to be alive, drifting towards Xue Baochai on the couch.
The wisps of incense dispersed on Baochai's head into a cloud of fairy mist, which just happened to envelope a great beauty like her in the incense cloud. Just like a fairy descending from heaven, her appearance is graceful and refined, giving people a feeling that they can only be viewed with respect from a distance but cannot be approached.
"Aunt Bao is really resting?"
Brother Rong came in through the door, smiling bitterly.
The fairy on the couch turned a deaf ear and was not moved by the sound, but her deep breaths caused the clothes on the couch to rise and fall.
Brother Rong raised his brows and walked over. Just now he saw that this girl had her lapels half open, even her tender collarbones and soft clouds were facing the wind. For a moment, Brother Rong's eyes were attracted by the white flowers, as if there was an invisible force, which made Jia Rong unable to move his eyes even half an inch.
A woman's sexiness is never naked.
Rong Ge'er is convinced of this. Currently, Xue Baochai's clothes are half open, and his snowy skin is half exposed, and he can still see a vaguely deep ice valley. I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
What a girl, how dare you seduce people like this.
Brother Rong's eyes shone and he looked carefully, only to get a blank look from Baochai on the couch.
"Auntie, why don't you tie up your clothes? It's still windy outside, so you won't catch a cold. Although this is Hengwuyuan, it's not like there are no other people coming here. It would be bad if you take a look."
The expression on Xue Baochai's face did not change at all, and he replied calmly: "No one else comes to my place except you. Now even you are not very willing to come. We made an appointment the afternoon before, but now we have arrived after noon." "
Jia Rong smiled and knelt down, reached over to take Baochai's open lapel and buttoned it. Haosheng said: "I encountered some confidential matters outside the Dongfu Gate this morning. I came here after we took care of them."
Xue Baochai didn't appreciate it and untied the clothes that Jia Rong tied up for her. He frowned and said, "Don't touch it, it's very dry."
Autumn dryness?
Brother Rong carefully observed Baochai's expression, and finally found that there was something wrong with Baochai's expression. He hurriedly held her hand and asked nervously: "Have you ever eaten Lengxiang Pills? Have you boiled the Huangbai juice?"
Baochai shook his head.
"Why don't you eat? Go and ask Ying'er to make juice." Brother Rong immediately stood up and hurriedly went outside to find Ying'er. These two girls, the one who is the master is ignorant, how come the people around them are also ignorant?
"Stop calling her. It's not like she's sick. Why should I take Laozi Lengxiang Pills? And the bitter cypress juice, I'll eat it later." Baochai stood up quickly and grabbed Brother Rong and said, "I I don’t know why, but I’ve been thinking about you so much these days. For some reason, my mother kept coming over the past few days, and it was not convenient to see me. Today I finally have some free time."
Baochai Xiaonizi has such a gentle side, which really surprises Brother Rong. Gently hold her delicate hands and rub them tenderly. He also talked about what happened after entering the Grand View Garden today.
"I thought that the maid was called by Bao'er to greet me, but I didn't expect that she would take me to the Aojingxi Pavilion, but it was Bao'er's wife waiting there."
"Mother, did you find Brother Rong today?" Baochai suddenly frowned and asked, "Why did mother call you over for no reason?"
Brother Rong smiled bitterly and ignored the embarrassment of meeting Aunt Xue. Said: "I don't know how my concubine found out about my relationship with Aunt Bao, so she came to ask me for guilt."
"Ah? Mom, kiss her..."
"I can see that my concubine cares about Bao'er very much, so she gave me a scolding. Fortunately, my concubine is kind-hearted and only wants Bao'er to live a happy life. With all my promises, we were able to get along with each other."
"Promise?" Xue Baochai frowned and thought. Based on her understanding of her mother, even if she had many scruples, she would not agree so easily. Besides...how did my mother know that she had an appointment with Brother Rong today?
Suddenly he woke up and said, "Brother Rong came out of the Aojingxi Pavilion, where did you see your mother going?"
"What do you mean, Bao'er?"
"My mother probably doesn't know our exact situation, so she might be on her way here right now." Xue Baochai hurriedly buttoned up his coat and said, "Brother Rong, please sit back here while I go outside and take a look."
As a daughter, you never want to behave inappropriately in front of your mother.
Baochai just thought that no matter whether her mother comes over today or not, she must let her maid watch from outside and come in to notify her whenever she sees his wife. Although I wanted to stay with Brother Rong in every possible way, I had to be careful first.
Miss Xue quickly walked out of the room, but Ying'er was nowhere to be seen outside. I have a lot of doubts in my heart, and I am secretly annoyed about where Ying'er's hooves have gone. She can't even see anyone on this fateful day.
"Ying'er?" Baochai called several times in the courtyard, but no one responded.
Where have people gone?
Could it be that he went to Girl Yun next door? Baochai lowered her eyebrows and thought, could it be that Girl Yun was interested in something again today? She came here to find me but was blocked by Ying'er, in case Brother Rong was seen by Girl Yun and pulled away?
People always think about the good, and Baochai is no exception.
Little did she know that at this moment Golden Eagle was listening to Aunt Xue's questions, hesitating for a long time and unable to answer a single sentence. As a maid, Ying'er would find it difficult to betray the girl Baochai, but she would not dare to disobey and hide anything from her wife.
In Ying'er's heart, heaven and man are at war.
Suddenly I heard the call from the girl over there, and I looked at my wife eagerly, not knowing whether I should answer or not.
Aunt Xue glared at the maid. "I'll take care of you later, just go back."
Ying'er hurriedly nodded her head, responded urgently, and shouted back to the girl: "Ying'er is here, what do you want me to do?"
Baochai stood at the door and planned to turn back, but suddenly heard Ying'er's voice and frowned even more. The little hooves is becoming more and more unruly. It needs to be properly disciplined in the future, so as not to cause trouble one day.
"Where did he go?" Xue Baochai asked with a frown.
Ying'er hesitated and blushed, but before she could answer, Baochai noticed something strange. Just listen to Ying'er whisper: "Mrs. just now..."
Baochai's brows tightened, and before Ying'er could finish her words, she saw her mother coming in from the outside, leading a maid behind her. Bao Yatou also changed her face very quickly. When she saw Aunt Xue appeared, she immediately put on a smile.
And he said: "Why is mother here? I didn't know if I came here and asked someone to notify me so that my daughter could prepare for mother."
Prepare? Clean it up.
Aunt Xue smiled lightly, looked at her daughter gently, and asked, "Brother Rong is here."
Although Baochai had never thought of hiding Brother Rong's visit today, Baochai was still quite surprised to hear her mother's direct question. He had no choice but to reply: "I was resting in the room. Since I didn't see Ying'er serving tea, my daughter came out to ask."
Xue Baochai said this, and Aunt Xue only listened.
One only talks and the other only listens. Only the parties involved know whether they believe it or not.
Aunt Xue didn't want to embarrass her daughter. "Now that Brother Rong has arrived, let's have a good chat together."
Xue Baochai's words, which were just out of good intentions for her daughter, made her feel uncomfortable, as if her mother was going out of her way to embarrass her and Brother Rong.
Baochai asked warily: "What does mother want to talk to Brother Rong?"
Aunt Xue sighed: "You silly girl, you used to think you were smart, but why did you lose your sense of proportion when you met him? What else can we talk about? Naturally, we should talk about the future, at least let him give an explanation. We can't just delay it like this. Well, as you get older, there will be more changes in the future."
How could Baochai not know this? Carefully taste what the variables in my mother's mouth refer to. It means that when you get older in the future, you will not be able to marry outside the family, or you are still worried about the variables between yourself and Brother Rong.
"Didn't mother promise her daughter to associate with Brother Rong?" Xue Baochai said leisurely, feeling even more anxious now. If her mother hadn't come over, she would have been in the room with Brother Rong, warming up and getting angry.
Aunt Xue felt her legs tremble when she heard that it was Brother Rong who was the bastard. How could she have said such a thing if she had no other choice. Finally, he let go and saw Brother Rong running away like a horse.
"Even if you don't allow it, why don't you stop interacting with each other? Why bother? I'll be the bad guy, but..." Aunt Xue sighed quietly, pulled Baochai aside, and asked in a low voice: "Did the girl have any deviation from him?"
"Mom..." Most girls are embarrassed when their mothers ask extremely sensitive questions in front of them. Even a strange woman like Baochai was no exception. She looked a little shy and asked, "What is mother referring to?"
"Girl, what else can you do? Just..." Aunt Xue looked around and dismissed the two maids next to her with her eyes. She held hands tightly and then asked, "Brother Rong, have you done anything inappropriate in front of you?" ? He is so bold and bold, has he ever looked down on you?"
This... Baochai really couldn't answer.
What frivolity? I have also found naked joy. How else to be thin and light? But can you say this to your mother? Can you tell your mother-in-law?
She was afraid that her mother would make it more difficult for Brother Rong. If something big happened, would Baochai still be shameless? After all, such behavior is not tolerated by this society, but the rumors and accusations make the Xue family feel uncomfortable.
Xue Baochai shook his head.
"It's okay if you don't." Aunt Xue breathed a sigh of relief. This bold bastard does have a certain bottom line. Although she couldn't imagine how Baochai kept the bottom line, she believed it as long as her daughter shook her head.
Even if you are deceiving yourself, believe it.
Aunt Xue said: "Since you don't have that...behavior, I won't prohibit you from going out in private. Just teach the girl to know and don't lose her temper. If...what if...the girl's belly suddenly grows big, where will our Xue family still have it?" Your face is in Shenjing? Even your deceased master was... stabbed in the spine."
Baochai lowered his head and hummed.
She and Brother Rong have done everything that should happen and what shouldn't happen.
It's too late to say this now.
Xue Baochai knew in her heart that as she interacted with Brother Rong over the years, she became increasingly inseparable from Brother Rong. Even if she was given a better choice in the future, she would still be reluctant to leave. Even now when I am talking to my mother, my mind is filled with the image of Brother Rong.
Brother Rong is so bad and yet so good. The Xue family also needs help from Brother Rong, and she also needs a partner like Brother Rong. Even if she is not the real wife, even if she has no name or status, she recognizes her now.
If Aunt Xue didn't know the inside story, she wouldn't know how much influence a habit had on Baochai; nor would she know how much influence the surrounding environment, such as Wang Xifeng, Lin Daiyu, Li Wan and others, had on Baochai.
Feng Yatou, who has always been strong, is willing to follow Brother Rong regardless of fame or status. Lin Daiyu from Master Lin's family, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is also thinking about Brother Rong. Now the iron trees that are about to wither like Grandma Lianzhu have also blossomed.
She... the daughter of the Xue family of the declining emperor, what does she mean? Lin Daiyu was still eager for it, but she had no chance. Women's thoughts are very strange. In the past, Baochai would compare herself with Grandma Qin, Yirong's grandmother, but now she only compares herself with Wang Xifeng, Lin Daiyu and others.
"You girl." Aunt Xue sighed quietly. Seeing Baochai's expression, she lost her confidence now.
No matter how long one deceives oneself, one cannot continue to deceive oneself when many signs show it. She understands her daughter so well, and her expression will be different whenever she sees her. A variety of unusual things are blended into one place, and what comes out is the truth.
"Could it be that... you and Brother Rong have already... ugh. How amazing is this."
Baochai said something at this time that all silly women would usually say.
"Brother Rong treats me very well."
Is this a good or bad question? Aunt Xue sighed several times. It was difficult to discipline her daughter when she was older. Why are there so many troubles happening at home? My son is not at ease, and my girl is not at ease either.
"Mom is a person who has been here before. Whether you are good or bad at the moment cannot mean anything." Aunt Xue said earnestly, but she couldn't help but ask again: "Girl, tell the truth to mother. Is Brother Rong doing that well? There are so many women around him, I'm just afraid that I'll be empty at a young age. If you follow him, you'll have a hard time... in the future."
The biggest difference between girls and women is that women can ask girls about the abilities of their husbands without any scruples. Of course, the higher the status, the more likely it is that such a girl will appear. Just like in the Tang Dynasty, the princesses in the palace chose their husbands and sent their maids to try out marriages.
Its purpose is nothing more than to ensure the inheritance of the bloodline and at the same time prevent an unfortunate life in the future.
Baochai, who had never been coy or pretentious, actually became coy when faced with this question and replied softly: "Brother Rong... is very... very brave."
"Very brave? Are you strong or not?"
"..." Xue Baochai's pink face turned red, like a ripe peach, and she was so embarrassed that water could squeeze out of her face.
"Not strong? It's...it's better to end it early. Do you want to be like Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law Li Shi and Brother Zhen's daughter-in-law Youshi? They were widowed at a young age, and the girl is determined to follow Brother Rong. Is it possible? Do you want to be a widow early? Girl, you..."
Normally, this kind of topic should be discussed by Aunt Xue before Baochai gets married. It's just that Baochai now has this relationship with Brother Rong, so he has no qualms about asking whether it is for the woman's happiness.
When Baochai recalled Brother Rong's state every time, the fire in her heart became even hotter. There are dancing flames under the skin again and again, they are burning and longing.
This kind of thirst makes your heart feel numb and your mind dizzy.
It's dry, itchy, and very uncomfortable.
Bao Yatou snorted, secretly tightening her leg bones, and said embarrassedly: "Mom... don't say this. Brother Rong is very strong."
"You girl, what girl is too old to be a mother without teaching her or asking questions?"
