Shenjing, Xue Mansion.
After passing a few thresholds, we arrived at the small courtyard where Xue Biao's mother was.
When they learned that Jia Yun was coming, Xue Baochai and others had already sent people over to spread the news, so as not to see some bad things or messy and other eye-catching things when they passed by, which would affect everyone's good mood today.
An, who sent people to invite Xue Baoqin inside, said: "Miss Baoqin, the second master of the Yun Mansion is here. He also took the eldest lady back to her parents' house and is on her way here! The eldest lady, please let me know. I'll come over and let the girl know so that she can prepare in advance so as not to reveal anything bad when the time comes."
There are many inconveniences in walking inside the boudoir.
Even if someone like Jia Baoyu wanted to go in to visit Mrs. Wang and others, they would have to ask the maid to pass on the news and ask if it was convenient.
Otherwise, not even Jia Baoyu can go in casually.
Knowing that it was Jia Yun who had brought Xue Baochai back, Xue Baoqin couldn't help but think of something, which was something that had been discussed before. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, you go outside and wait for a while. If they come, just bring them in, it’s convenient for me.”
After that, Xue Baoqin looked at the maids beside him and continued to give instructions: "You guys go and clean up the house, don't disturb the eyes of the distinguished guests."
There are some medical things in this room, which is a little messy. Therefore, every night, the maids will clean the room before going to rest and sleep.
Just like cleaning.
It's just that in the homes of wealthy families, there are many maids who are dedicated to this task, but it is not the turn of the few maids who stay by their side during the day.
However, now that distinguished guests are coming, naturally we cannot wait to clean up in the evening, we have to clean up now.
At least you can't let others see it, it's very unseemly.
Jia Yun led Xue Baochai, Aunt Xue and others into the small courtyard. She couldn't help but look at Xue Biao and asked, "How is your mother's recent symptoms? Is she feeling better?"
"It's better! Thanks to the prescription and the medicinal materials provided by the second master, my mother is getting better now. It's just..." Xue Biao said this, but it was extremely difficult to remain silent for a while. .
When Xue Baochai saw this, he also smiled and said, "What? Are you having any difficulties? Can you tell us about it, so that we can give you some advice and help you solve your problems."
Hearing Xue Baochai's words, Xue Bian shook his head slightly and sighed: "Sister Baochai, you don't know that our family is not as wealthy as yours. Although we are also in business, it is difficult to sustain such high medical expenses for a long time. !」
Every day, Xue Biao’s mother eats some precious Chinese medicinal materials. Which of them does not require a lot of money to treat?
It can be said that after a few months of eating, Xue Biao's financial resources gradually became tight.
If the Xue family was not rich, they might not be able to withstand such food and would have died long ago.
Jia Rui was manipulated by Wang Xifeng before and lost his vitality. He needed precious Chinese medicinal materials such as ginseng to nourish his body. His grandfather Jia Dairu begged his grandpa to go to Wang Xifeng to intercede, but he did not get any benefits. , but helplessly watched Jia Rui die of illness, which can be said to be mentally and physically exhausted, and endlessly sad.
This also led to the trouble that later Jia Dairu stood up and sued Wang Xifeng.
All this is not unintentional, but because there is really no money, and the poor can only wait to die.
It is so difficult for rich people, let alone the poor.
Therefore, after Jia Yun learned about this, she sighed silently, and then said: "It doesn't matter, I guess the subsequent treatment will not cost much money. Don't worry, if you are really short of money, But if you borrow some from our family, it’s not a big deal.”
Since ancient times, brothers have settled accounts openly.
Regarding this matter, Jia Yun did her best to be benevolent and righteous, but she was not someone who was taken advantage of and could fully support these people.
Xue Baochai saw
Jia Yun said so and fell silent.
She had a rough idea of the assets in this family. As Jia Yun's position improved, the expenses increased, and it was far from being able to maintain the wealth and luxury for several generations.
Moreover, the Rongguo Mansion often came to borrow money. Xue Baochai and others had no choice but to borrow money due to their past friendship. After doing this several times, everyone's mentality changed slightly.
To be more specific, although Xue Bian, Xue Baochai and others of the Xue family are relatives and a family, they are like Jia She and Jia Zheng of the Rongguo Mansion. They appear to be harmonious on the surface, but in fact they are two families. It's impossible to be considered a family.
This is a small family within a big family. Everyone has their own plans. Unless they are their biological parents, they are just relatives. If they can help in the name of the past, they are just helping.
Just like Wang Xifeng helped Grandma Liu.
But if it takes a long time, I am afraid that the good heart will turn into a bad heart.
Xue Biao naturally knows the truth.
In the capital, the two brothers and sisters lived a life of dependence on others, and received a lot of support from Jia Yun, Xue Baochai and others. Not to mention financial help, they also helped a lot in other aspects.
Greed demands excessively, but cannot get anything in return.
I'm afraid everyone has an idea.
Helping once is a favor, but what happens after ten times and a hundred times? People's hearts eventually change.
Xue Biao thought about it for a moment, then sighed and said, "It's my incompetence. Otherwise, why would my mother be embarrassed about the silver?"
Upon seeing this, Aunt Xue also came over and comforted Xue Biao: "It's not your fault. It's just that the world is not good and it's not easy to make money. You have a lot of expenses now and it's really difficult to maintain a decent face."
Aunt Xue also had a very good attitude towards Xue Biao and Xue Baoqin.
It turns out that Aunt Xue is a kind-hearted person who can help one or two, that is, she can help one or two.
It's just that the cost of treating Xue Biao's mother is really huge. Even Aunt Xue is unlikely to empty her own house to help Xue Biao. At least ordinary people cannot be as selfless as a saint. .
While everyone was chatting, Xue Baoqin took the initiative to walk out of the room, looked at the people outside with a smile and said, "Sister Baochai, brother-in-law, aunt, please come in quickly, mother is thinking of you!"
As soon as the words were spoken, another plump woman who looked similar to Aunt Xue walked out of the room.
This person is the mother of Xue Biao and Xue Baoqin.
