The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 664 Hit it off

"real?!"

After Xue Baochai half-concealed and tried to tell him her thoughts as tactfully as possible, Xue Pan rubbed his sleepy eyes and said in disbelief: "You... are you guys telling the truth?"

Aunt Xue grabbed Xue Pan's hand and advised, "Son! Your sister is also thinking about the family..."

"Brother, are you okay?" Xue Baochai also said with a guilty look on her face, "Brother, don't worry. I promise that I will treat your child as my own in the future."

"It's okay! It's okay!" Xue Pan didn't care about their expressions at all. He jumped three feet high and said with a smile, "Brother really loves you well!"

"This……"

Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai thought he was just angry and looked at each other in surprise.

But Xue Pan rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Before, brother was considering his sister, so he proposed that method. Now that my sister has married, she also knows to help her brother!"

At this point, he sighed, "It's ok for Lian Er and Rong Ge'er to show off in front of me, but the eldest master is also a decent person. This time, I can finally hold my head high!"

Xue Baochai could understand Jia Lian and Jia Rong, but she didn't understand why Xue Pan was angry with Jia She.

However, although she didn't understand, she was greatly shocked and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Xue Baochai didn't understand, but Aunt Xue realized that he was referring to Lady Xing, and she quickly scolded him, "What nonsense are you talking about with your sister, you fool?"

"Right, right, right!" Xue Pan scratched his head and responded, then turned around and got angry again. He complained to Xue Baochai, "Sister, you don't know that before you got married, not to mention Lian Er and Rong Ge'er, even Huan Lao San dared to boss me around. I was so miserable as a brother! Although I'm still not as good as Lian Er, I can barely be considered as good as Rong Ge'er..."

Seeing Xue Pan leaking more and more money like a colander, Aunt Xue glared at her silly son in annoyance and thought to herself, Mrs. Xing is only Jia Lian's stepmother, why do you have to belittle yourself?
But he spat, "Pah! The matter has not even been settled yet, and it is still unclear whether Yun Yi will agree or not, why are you talking nonsense!"

"Ah?" Xue Pan's face suddenly turned pale and he exclaimed, "What? Didn't my sister tell her brother-in-law about this?"

"Didn't I just want to ask my brother what he thinks first?" Xue Baochai said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Oh! Do you even need to ask this?" Xue Pan looked at Baochai anxiously and begged, "Sister, you must help me with this. Whether I can be proud of myself or not depends entirely on you..."

I originally thought that it would take some effort to convince Xue Pan, but I didn't expect that he would turn against Tian Gang and beg me for help.

Xue Baochai was a little at a loss for a moment. After a pause, she said, "Don't worry, brother. I will persuade our master to help!"

At this point, he changed the subject and said, "However, we still have to find a marriage for my brother as soon as possible..."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xue Pan responded hurriedly, "Sister, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"

"My sister and mother have discussed this just now. It's better not to look for a family of equal status. Small families are easier to control..."

Xue Baochai told Xue Pan the general results of her previous discussion with Aunt Xue, and Xue Pan agreed with it.

"My sister is right. My illness is no secret anyway. I think we should be frank when proposing marriage, so that she won't be coy and upset with her brother-in-law. It would be best to ask my brother-in-law to help check, so that we don't end up with someone who doesn't suit his taste."

Xue Baochai said angrily: "Brother, what nonsense you are talking about. I'm not asking you to help our master to beg for money, but he is helping the family to continue the incense..."

Xue Baochai didn't take it seriously, but Aunt Xue kept it in mind.

There is nothing new in the mansion. Although Xia Jingui has been married for only a short time, she has already made trouble for Lady Wang several times. Her reputation for being willful and capricious has also reached Aunt Xue's ears.

When he originally intended to marry Xia Jingui, Zhang Yun逸 had given his opinion before, so this time it was no problem at all.

She was extremely alert, interrupting Xue Pan's nonsense from time to time, while helping him to come up with ideas and fill in the gaps.

The three of them talked about finding a matchmaker until lunch time, and continued to talk while eating until they had finished lunch, when they had finally reached a general agreement. When Xue Pan left, Baochai asked in confusion, "Why does my brother talk so strangely?"

"What...what's strange about that?" Aunt Xue asked knowingly.

Baochai frowned slightly and said, "Brother Lian and Brother Rong, I can understand them, and the eldest master can also make sense, but what about the third brother Huan?"

Baochai was quick-witted. Although Xue Pan was interrupted by Aunt Xue every time he spoke about the key points, it was not difficult to see from the tone of his voice and his attitude before and after that that he was blaming Jia Huan for his rising status.

She didn't suspect Aunt Zhao, but she was worried that it was related to Tanchun.

After all, as early as when listening to the story and filming the play, it was obvious that Tanchun was quite enthusiastic about Zhang Yun逸's affairs.

However, Jia Huan, a hopeless person, was doing very well in the study of Taoism and even became a seventh-rank doctor.

If you say there is no inside story, Xue Baochai would never believe it even if you kill her.

She is now completely focused on the position of concubine and is particularly sensitive about this.

Looking at Zhang Yun逸's harem, although there are many people, Qin Keqing and Youshi have awkward identities and can basically be ruled out.

Xiangling's children inherited the Zhen family's bloodline. The two sisters of the You family, who came from a small family and were completely dependent on Zhang Yunyi, were not within her consideration.

Only Yuanchun, Yingchun, Xiangyun and Xing Xiuyun, the sisters who left the Grand View Garden, are most likely to compete with her for this position.

Although she never belittled herself, after all, there were too many people and too little porridge. With the addition of a strong competitor like Tanchun, complications were inevitable.

Aunt Xue had not considered this, and no one knew why she was thinking this. She said, "Since you asked, I won't hide it from you. I heard that Aunt Zhao asked Huan Ge'er to recognize Yun Yi as his godfather!"

"Hmm? Godfather?" Xue Baochai was stunned at first, then asked in surprise, "Mother, are you kidding? Wouldn't this mess up the generations?"

"Oh! Why don't you understand?"

"Could it be..." Xue Baochai said in astonishment, "Mother is saying?"

Aunt Xue stared at Baochai's expression and nodded silently.

Xue Baochai let out a sigh and asked quickly, "How soon?"

"It is said that your uncle wanted to be sent to a foreign post as an academician..."

Aunt Xue didn't want to put the blame on Zhang Yunyi, so she mixed up the reasons given by Mrs. Wang and attributed them to Aunt Zhao.

"Do the old lady and aunt know?"

"I guess he knows." Aunt Xue asked tentatively, "Are you...are you okay?"

Xue Baochai did not comment, took a deep breath, and sighed, "No wonder Aunt Zhao always had a seat at the old lady's table the last few times. So this is the reason."

At this point, she smiled, stood up and said, "My daughter will be back soon. Mother should hurry up and arrange things for my brother as soon as possible. Also, don't forget to talk to my aunt."

"Hoo! Hoo!"

Seeing that Baochai did not show any displeasure, Aunt Xue breathed a sigh of relief and agreed quickly.
