The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 292 Isn't This Elopement?
Wang Xifeng spouted furiously, still not relieved.But seeing Baochai's and Li Wan's expressions were unfriendly, finally his heart softened, he poohed three times at Jia Huan and the others, and walked away.

Although Wang Xifeng didn't say a word against Baochai, but because her brother was also among them, Baochai felt that she couldn't hold back her face.

"Brother, you should go back quickly, don't be ashamed of yourself here."

Xue Pan wanted to say something, but he was usually a little afraid of his younger sister, so he quickly slipped away.

"What's wrong with Lian's second sister-in-law today? She's with us all the time, why did she help Min's fourth brother talk?"

Baoyu hasn't reacted yet.

Seeing that Baoyu is still like this up to now, Baochai can't help sighing in his heart: "It really is an idiot."

"Second brother Bao, let's go to our ancestors and ask them to make the decision."

Hearing what Jia Huan said, Baoyu woke up like a dream.

"That's right, why did I forget about my ancestors? Let's go, go to my ancestors, and tell my ancestors to reprimand that Min Lao Si severely, and only then can I relieve my hatred. Sister Lin, let's go, let's go back. "

"Go back first, I'll play here for a while."

Seeing that Daiyu really didn't want to leave, Baoyu had no choice but to leave.While walking, I was still thinking: Why is sister Lin unwilling to leave with me?

There was no result in finding Jia's mother, but he just said to write to Jia Min, asking him to send a letter to the Ministry of War, acknowledging that he agreed with Baoyu and others to stay.

As for going to Pukui, no one can change it.Just wait for Jia Min's reply, when the time comes, they will have to go to Bu Kui.

Naturally, Baoyu was unwilling, and Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang coaxed them ten thousand times, and they made sure that when Bu Kui arrived, Jia Min would not let Jia Min lock them up in a cage, keep eating and so on.

Baoyu also knew that there was no room for change in this matter, so he had to wait anxiously while eating, drinking and having fun every day.

On this day, Baochai was in the East Flower Hall, and Wang Xifeng came with a happy face.Screened off the maids, revealing a mysterious look.

"Miss Bao is overjoyed."

Seeing Wang Xifeng like this, Baochai understood that the matter had finally come.

"Second sister-in-law is joking again. How can I have any happy event?"

"Yesterday, I heard something. That Mei Hanlin's family was asking around for Miss Bao, and they wanted someone to propose marriage."

"It's rumors again, it can't be true."

"That's true. Last year, I said that I would betroth you to the fourth brother Min. In the end, it didn't happen... Alas, it's a pity. In fact, in the eyes of my sister-in-law, Miss Bao and the fourth brother Min are really a natural match, but It's good luck to make people, some things, you can't help yourself."

Thinking of Jia Min, Wang Xifeng felt emotional.

After chatting for a while, Wang Xifeng left, and Baochai went home, and she was about to start acting.

When I got home, I saw my mother talking to my aunt. When Baochai came back, they stopped talking.

"It just so happens that my aunt is here, and I'm leaving for Jinling in the next two days. I've already explained the business matters to Mrs. Zhu and Miss Tanchun."

"So urgent? Can't wait?"

"I can't wait any longer, take advantage of the warm weather, and hurry back before it snows."

"That's good, it won't snow, and the road is hard to walk, so go early and return early. Who will accompany you?"

Mrs. Wang still likes Baochai very much, and her concern for her is also sincere.

"I have greeted the soldiers of Yeduju, and they will send three soldiers to escort me, so that it will be more convenient on the road."

"That's true. With the escort of the government soldiers, no one dares to make things difficult on the road."

After talking with Mrs. Wang here, Baochai went to say hello to the ancestors again, and then went to Yeduju.

When he arrived at the gate of Yeduju, he saw several soldiers who looked neither male nor female. Baochai knew that this was the Li An who was training soldiers here.

Last winter, when the family members of Jia's family went to the flower house to enjoy the flowers, Princess Chang'an noticed Baochai. For some reason, she was a little wary and hostile towards Baochai.Jiao Baochai came suddenly today, which aroused her suspicion again.

Baochai said she was looking for Zhang Decai, but she couldn't say anything, and she didn't talk to Baochai, so Baochai went in.

After half an hour, Baochai came out.So Princess Chang'an told Lichun to monitor Zhang Decai quietly.

Baochai had already been here twice, which made her feel a little unusual.So he called Li Chengbin, and after muttering for a while, Li Chengbin rode out on horseback.

In the evening, Li Chengbin came back.

"What news did you hear?"

"Miss Xue is going to Jinling. Their Xue family and Jia family have some property there, and she is going there to rectify the property."

"Since it's about rectifying the industry, just go there in an open and aboveboard manner. Why are you sneaking around here with the fat squad leader? Have you heard any other news?"

"It's nothing else, but this Miss Xue is very shrewd and capable in the mansion. Everyone says that she is a female Zhuge, and there are some rumors about her marriage."

"Marriage rumors? Tell me?"

Chang'an immediately regained his spirits.

"Last year, there was a rumor that she was going to be betrothed to Chief Min..."

"What? To be betrothed to Chief Min? Whose bad idea is this?"

Princess Chang'an stood up.

Why is betrothing to Chief Min such a bad idea?I think Miss Xue is a good match for Chief Min.

"However, this matter did not come to fruition. After Chief Min arrived in Bukui, this theory disappeared."

"That's right. I don't think this Miss Xue is worthy of Chief Min."

Chang An's expression seemed to be a lot more relaxed.

How do you know that people are not worthy?
"However, there have been rumors about Miss Xue's marriage these two days."

"Why are there rumors again? Is she afraid that she won't be able to marry, so anxious?"

What's wrong with His Highness, it seems that he has a grudge against Miss Xue.It's none of your business whether someone gets married or not.

"This is the news that came out only yesterday. It is said that Mei Hanlin's family asked someone to inquire about Miss Xue's character. That means they are going to propose marriage."

"Well, okay, this Miss Xue is not bad, she should get married soon."

How did it get better in the blink of an eye?
"Li Chengbin, we are training here now, and we are using those things from Chief Min. You know, these things are extremely useful, so we must keep them secret. Our secrets cannot be easily learned by others. went."

"Yes, what His Highness said is very true."

"This Miss Xue has come to look for Fat Squad Leader twice. I suspect that there seems to be some secret between them. You have to pay attention to monitoring them. Now that Chief Min is not here, we have to take care of this home for him."

"I understand, Your Highness."

When Baochai came back from Yeduju, he went directly to see Qin Keqing.Although I have to leave, the affairs in the mansion still need to be arranged after all.

Although Li Wan and Tanchun have already started to take over the business, they are still far behind Qin Keqing.

For Qin Keqing, Baochai has complicated feelings.

Qin Keqing's IQ and EQ are on par with Baochai.However, Baochai's emotional intelligence is more about human management.It is the result of her intention to be kind to others and maintain a good relationship with everyone, which contains many elements of calculation.

However, Qin Keqing's emotional intelligence seems to be natural, and she has a strong affinity.It seems that as long as you get in touch with her, you will unconsciously have a feeling of trust and even closeness to her.

Although the two are in charge of affairs in their respective mansions, they don't communicate much on weekdays.In Baochai's heart, there seemed to be a faint feeling of competing with Qin Keqing.

Of course, both of them are extremely shrewd characters, and on the surface, they get along very harmoniously.In fact, the two sides do not think there will be any conflict between each other.

Of course, this is under the premise that they don't know that they are rivals in love.

Qin Keqing already knew that Baochai was going to Jinling.Ningguo Mansion also has some properties in Jinling. The two had also discussed before, so they entrusted Baochai to check the situation of Ningguo Mansion's properties.

Inspired by Baochai's rectification of the properties of Xue's family and Rongguo Mansion, Qin Keqing is also planning to reorganize the properties of Ningguo Mansion in Jinling.

Qin Keqing readily agreed to help take care of the business in Xifu.It is the duty of the two governments to take care of each other, and there is no reason to shirk it.

He also said that when Jia Rong and others went to Bukui in the future, he would probably follow him. At that time, he would have to ask Baochai to help take care of Dongfu's business.

It's just that Qin Keqing always felt a little strange that Baochao was going to Jinling suddenly.But it's just a feeling, even if I ask her to talk about it, she can't understand what it is.

However, thinking of having an excuse to go to Bukui in the future, Qin Keqing couldn't help feeling a little hopeful.

When we get to Bukui, we can meet Fourth Uncle Min, but it's almost as if we stay with each other.

The next day, Baochai went out to buy some supplies for going out, leaving Yinger at home to pack her things.When I arrived at the Jiafu Supermarket in Chongwenmen, I saw Fenghua, gave Fenghua the silver tael and the purchase list, and told Fenghua to purchase according to the order, and suddenly put them in boxes, waiting for her to pick them up tomorrow.

After Baochai left, Fenghua looked at the list and felt a little puzzled.

It's only summer now, so it's too early to buy winter supplies so early?

The next day, Baochai went to Jinling. As usual, she gave a farewell order, and she looked a little reluctant.

"My daughter is not filial, she can't serve her mother, she has gone far away, and I don't know when she will see her again. I hope my mother will take care of herself."

Baochai knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Aunt Xue a few times, and then got up to get into the car.No more hesitation, just ask the coachman to drive.

Looking back at my mother, my brother and the people who saw me off, I couldn't help crying.

When we arrived at Yeduju, the fat squad leader and two soldiers were already waiting.He moved the contents of the car to the car prepared by the fat squad leader, and sent the carriage from the mansion back.

After a while, two carriages set off from Yeduju.

These two carriages belong to the Fubingtuan.On the buttocks of the horses that pull the chariot, there is also the logo of a military horse. As long as you take a closer look, you will know that it is a military vehicle and a military horse.

Soon I arrived at the Jiafu Supermarket in Chongwenmen and loaded a bunch of boxes into the car.Then, two carriages, two government soldiers, Baochai and Yinger, four people and two carriages drove towards Tongzhou.

In the afternoon, I arrived at the gate of Tongzhou City.Another mansion soldier who was waiting here came up and said a few words, but the car didn't enter the city gate, just like driving towards Tianjin Wei.

Ying'er still remembered that when she came to the imperial capital from Jinling, she came by boat from the Grand Canal, and she still remembered the direction of the pier.

As I walked, I felt that something was wrong.

Last year, she was going to betroth Miss to Fourth Master Min, and she knew about the matter of proposing marriage to Miss these two days. She knew that Miss was troubled by this matter, so she devoted herself to taking care of Miss.

Now it seems that I have gone the wrong way, I think that the young lady is troubled by these things, and I am afraid that I am a little confused mentally.

"Miss, it seems that I went the wrong way. I remember the pier is over there."

"Ying'er, you're not going wrong. We're not going to Jinling."

"Miss, if you don't go to Jinling, where are you going?"

"Let's go to Bu Kui and find Fourth Brother Min."

Baochai replied calmly, with a determined look on her face.

Oh my God, I went to Bu Kui to find Fourth Master Min!

It took a long time for Yinger to come back to her senses.

Isn't this, this, this elopement?
God, the lady elopes!I turned out to be her accomplice!
