Chapter 1232 Gengzijuan is subtle

Seeing that the mother and son were a little excited, Feng Ziying wisely did not go over to disturb them. With these two brothers-in-law by her side, Feng Ziying was not lonely.

"Wenlong, the business here in Daguan Tower is booming, are you interested in taking charge of it alone? I think Brother Liu may not be willing to keep working in this theater, and he will eventually leave."

Xue Pan's performance is much better than in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", at least not so muddy. In addition, Xia Jingui of the Xia family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Aunt Xue was a little anxious, and she planned to take in two concubines for Xue Pan, but Xia Jingui refused to agree, and the two sides were still fighting.

"No, Ziying, I know my own affairs. I just go for a walk every day. Brother Liu will naturally arrange what he can do. If he can't, leave it to me. There are only bad things. I don't have the ability. , If Brother Liu really quits, this theater will either have to be sold or hired to take care of it, but I think the business is good now and it would be a pity to sell it."

Xue Pan's words were quite satisfactory, which surprised both Feng Ziying and Xue Pan.

It should be said that Xue Pan's behavior in the past two or three years has been greatly restrained from the absurdity he had in Jinling. Especially after getting married, Xia Jingui's strength made Xue Pan even more afraid. He was unscrupulous in Jinling, but when he arrived in the capital The changes in the environment after the city, coupled with Feng Ziying's beating and discipline, in itself made Xue Pan gradually get on the right track, and Xia Jingui intensified this situation.

Nowadays, Xue Pan can only go crazy after drinking, and he can't cause much trouble. Besides sleeping in in the morning, he goes for a walk in the theater in the afternoon, and if there is a drinking party in the evening, he will have a good time. There is also a group of friendly friends, but basically they all have a certain sense of propriety, so life is enjoyable.

"Well, what the elder brother said makes sense. Even if Brother Liu doesn't want to run the business anymore, he can still find someone to help him take care of it. This can be regarded as a very generous fixed income every year."

Xue Biao also felt that it would be a pity if the Daguan Tower was sold. There are not many ordinary businesses in the capital city that can have stable profits. Many of them make money this year and lose money next year. How can a business like the Daguan Tower be so stable, and it is also Can he be good at dancing and make friends with the children of many high-ranking families in the capital?

At least in terms of connections, it can enrich the Xue family a lot. Although Xue Pan is a little dull, but with Feng Ziying's relationship, even Daguan Tower's biggest competitor, Prince Zhongshun, the owner of Mingyue Tower, has to give him some face. Said this is the most suitable for Xue Pan.

"That's true. Then the only way is to hire someone to take care of it. Then you might as well give some stock, which can also tie people's hearts."

Feng Ziying thought about it, Daguan Tower is also a weather vane, many religions and people like to hang out in this area, if used well, it is a good place to get all kinds of news and rumors in the capital city, and intelligence can often come out from these places.

There are more than a million people living in the capital city. Merchants and travelers from the entire Zhou Dynasty are all proud to have been to the capital city, and their contacts can bring news from various places. A place like Daguan Tower where you can play, eat and drink is undoubtedly the most popular place. It is a gathering place where communication is easy, and various underground social conditions and public opinions among the people are often fermented in this kind of place.

 Such a platform is a natural place for gathering intelligence, so Wang Wenyan attaches great importance to the Daguan Tower.

The three of them were chatting on one side, while the two pairs of mother and daughter on the other side also entered the room and asked about their married life in detail.

Here it is inevitable to ask about some topics that the daughter's family is too shy to mention, but they are very important to Mrs. Xue Wang and Mrs. Xue Cui.

What the uncle's attitude is towards his daughter, what his daughter's status will be after she gets married, how she gets along with her eldest brother, and the attitude of Mrs. Feng's wife and concubine towards their two wives, are all related to the daughter's future happiness, and also to the future of the Xue family. fate.

"My husband treats my daughter and Baoqin very well. The emperor also gave special gifts to me. My wife and concubine are also very kind. My daughter and Baoqin have already been served tea." Baochai wiped away his tears and slowly regained his composure. , but the joy on his face did not diminish.

"Then what they did to you and Baoqin..." Mrs. Xue Cui asked eagerly.

She knew that her daughter had a strong temperament and was now a concubine, and there was also a eldest lady from a scholarly family and an official background, so she was particularly worried that her daughter would not get along well with the Feng family.

"Auntie, don't worry. My husband is very fond of Baoqin. He said that Baoqin is sensible and sensible, and he can discuss current affairs with him. He is about to become his think tank. My wife and aunt only have a son like my husband. My husband's attitude towards my wife and aunt The impact is great." Baochai knew her aunt's worries.

Judging from the current situation, Feng Ziying does like herself and Bao Qin very much, otherwise she would have shown a very doting and close attitude in the past few days. She and Bao Qin were both feeling a little unwell after their wedding. I'm afraid a man might not be so patient, and he wouldn't be so attentive to taking care of him, but it really seemed natural to him. This moved both Baochai and Baoqin very much, and it also showed that their husband really cared about them. of.

Baochai's words made Baoqin raise his eyebrows. Discussing current affairs and being a think tank seemed like a compliment, but how should you listen to this.

Discussing current affairs was a private conversation between myself and my husband, but I didn’t expect that my husband also told my cousin. I don’t know if it was because my husband said it carelessly, or because he favored his cousin more than me.

 But this always seems to have some other flavor when thinking outside of what he says.

Perhaps my cousin is a little jealous too?

 Baoqin felt an unreasonable joy in her heart. It was not easy to make her cousin feel jealous. She had always shown herself to be generous and generous.

"Oh? Really?" Mrs. Xue Cui naturally couldn't understand the mystery. She only knew that her daughter was very popular with her uncle, which was not easy.

  Baochai and Bao Qin are both outstanding figures. Xue Cui is more aware that her niece is not simple-minded. Although her daughter is also smart and wise, she may not be able to compare with the other, especially since the other is her legitimate wife.

"Auntie, can this be fake? Baoqin knows better. Look at how beautiful her smile is, and you know that her heart is sweeter than honey right now." Baochai said with a genuine smile.

Seeing her mother's expectant and concerned eyes looking over her, Bao Qin could only nod: "Don't worry, mother, my daughter knows how to do a good job. My husband treats his sister and daughter very well. My wife and concubine also said that they would move the eldest and second bedrooms home as soon as possible." After the property is divided, the second bedroom will be left to the elder sister and daughter. However, the elder sister and daughter still feel that it is not appropriate. Let's wait for a while. If we can wait until Sister Lin gets married and the third bedroom is all taken care of, then we can come again. It’s better to say this.”

Seeing that her daughter was so sensible, Ms. Xue Cui was also very happy, "Baoqin, you and Baochai should discuss it carefully if you have anything to do. The situation of the Feng family is special, with three bedrooms side by side. The wife and aunt will inevitably have to compare, but everything else is fine." It's easy to say that Baochai and Baoqin are still confident in all aspects, but as for this heir, neither Baochai nor Baoqin can slack off. The eldest son, Mrs. Shen, gave birth to a daughter, but she also has two concubines, so You have to step up, it would be best if the eldest son is born in the second bedroom."

Xue Cui's words did not mention who would be the heirs of the second wife, but Baochai felt like a bright mirror in her heart.

My aunt may even hope that Bao Qin will be her husband. Anyway, the son she gives birth to is a legitimate son, so it will have no impact. If Bao Qin gives birth to a son, even if he is not a legitimate son, he will still be the eldest son of a concubine, and the status of a son born by a concubine is different from that of a son born by a concubine. Bao Qin This eldest son of a concubine can almost establish the most valuable status besides the legitimate son.

"Auntie, please be at ease. Since Baoqin and I have married into the Feng Mansion, we will naturally fulfill our responsibilities, but this also takes time..." There are some words that even Baochai can't explain clearly. Her cheeks were slightly hot, and Baochai mused. : "My husband takes great care of the health of Sister Shen and us. Sister Shen just gave birth not long ago, so my husband said that he doesn't want Sister Shen to get pregnant again within a year to avoid any impact on her health..."

Both Aunt Xue and Mrs. Xue Cui immediately understood that this meant that there was no possibility of having a legitimate son within a year, but this was an opportunity for Baochai and Baoqin, well, especially Baochai's opportunity.

Although the eldest son’s second and third eldest sons each belong to the same house and their children are unrelated, to Feng Ziying, the eldest son must have an extraordinary weight in her mind.

"Baochai, it's good that you understand the importance of this." Aunt Xue finally spoke, looking at her daughter with a little more care and love in her eyes, "Brother Keng is a good boy. He has always been caring for you, and mother knows it. But in the Feng Mansion, you must learn to take care of the housework, learn to be harmonious with your sisters-in-law, learn to be filial to your parents-in-law, so that Brother Keng can feel at ease when you are away from home, and don’t care about small immediate gains..."

Aunt Xue didn’t quite agree with her sister-in-law’s point of view. In her opinion, how could someone like Feng Ziying not see through the mystery here? Since Baochai is already deeply loved and can stand on her own feet, if things don't work out, as long as she gives birth to a son, he will be his legitimate son. As for the bastard, it doesn't matter much to Aunt Xue. Anyway, Baochai will be pregnant sooner or later. If it can be Of course it is good to have the eldest son, but if it is a step later, he will be regarded as the eldest son of the second wife and will not suffer much. As for Baoqin, it is a little different. If you can give birth to a noble son early, the eldest son of this concubine will be more promising in the future. Jean would definitely give it a try.

There was something hidden in Aunt Xue's words that made both Xue Cui and Xue Baoqin aware of something. Aunt Xue didn't seem to want her to be too dominant, but Baoqin didn't care either. Faced with Shen Yixiu's recovery and Lin Daiyu's marriage, if both sisters were If they still want to go their own way and can't work together, then the two families will really break up.
