Chapter 1909 Renzijuan Baoqin commits stubbornness, Xue scorpion trains sister

  When Xue Biao stepped into Feng's residence, Feng Ziying was not there.

  He went to his cousin first.

   Baochai kept him talking for a while before he left.

Although he has been running around in the past two years, his main focus is on business, especially after Baoqin got married, he didn't worry so much about family affairs. After all, he knew Baoqin's ability, even Feng Ziying They are all full of praise, and they are willing to hand over many affairs to Baoqin, so there is nothing to worry about.

Perhaps the only thing that makes him think about it from time to time is when his younger sister will be able to conceive and have a child. This is something that every woman cannot avoid. Only by giving birth to a son can she gain a firm foothold in her husband's family. In fact, if you have no confidence in the issue of offspring, it will be easy to be criticized.

   Xue Biao felt that the cousin was a little absent-minded, but it was not easy to ask further questions.

  After he came out, he didn't go to his sister's place, but asked Zhang Dehui, the old servant of the Xue family, to inquire about the situation.

  Zhang Dehui has been with the Xue family since the previous generation. For decades, his son Zhang Yihao has always been loyal to the Xue family.

However, the Xue family's business is declining day by day, especially Xue Pan's main role as the mascot of the Daguanlou. After Xue Biao went away to start shipbuilding and shipping, the Xue family's other businesses are actually in a state of gradual shrinkage. Let go of what should be let go. The transfer is the transfer.

  For example, the jewelry business of the second room of Xue’s family, Xue Biao decisively sold it because he didn’t have the energy to manage it. And Zhang Dehui's son, Zhang Yihao, followed Xue Biao to the sea.

The same is true for some businesses in Changfang. Feng Ziying mentioned that the only grain shop that will be kept will be in a booming period in the next few years. An important cargo in Xue Biao’s sea transportation is to transport grain. There is this channel. , so in the capital city, Tongzhou and Tianjin Wei, there are still Xue's grain shops.

  But if you really want to compare with these large grain merchants and grain stores in the capital city, the Xue family's grain store business is still not ranked, and it is not worth mentioning.

  Everything in Feng's residence is normal, the only thing to say is that the second aunt of the second room, that is, Yingchun is pregnant.

  One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and it seemed that it was for this reason that the entire Feng residence became a little restless, and even the demure and indifferent cousin couldn't sit still.

Even the cousin can't sit still, the younger sister who has always been so strong will definitely find it hard to sleep. Xue Biao can guess that his younger sister will definitely not tolerate this situation going on forever, but this kind of thing can't be changed by humans. The second sister is pregnant Yes, what the cousin and younger sister can do is to work **** their own, but it depends on the opportunity.

   After pondering for a while, Xue Biao went to see his sister.

   Xue Baoqin was naturally overjoyed at her brother's return, and wanted to keep Xue Tiao for dinner.

  Of course Xue Biao will not refuse. He also needs to wait until Feng Ziying comes back in the evening, and some things need to be discussed.

   There were only two brothers and sisters left, Xue Biao naturally didn't shy away from anything, and asked about Yingchun's pregnancy.

   "Brother, why is he concerned about such things?" Baoqin chuckled, "Could it be that the little sister is also under pressure and unwilling to reconcile? No,..."

   "Really not?" Xue Biao also smiled at the corner of his mouth, how can he not understand his sister who is strong in everything? "I think even the eldest sister has something on her mind, can you still hold on? That's really not like the younger sister I used to be."

Baoqin's face darkened slightly, and she shook her head: "I'm afraid that the eldest sister's mood may not be entirely because of the second sister's pregnancy. Anyway, she is also the second wife. The eldest sister is the first wife, so she gave birth to a son. The eldest sister is also the first mother, and she How big of a storm can you stir up with your temperament?"

   "Oh?" Xue Biao frowned, "Then what can make elder sister worry?"

  Bao Qin hesitated for a moment, but said nothing.

   "What's the matter, brother, is there anything hard to say here?" Xue Biao was surprised.

   "No, I just feel a little surprised, then maybe Xing Xiuyan also wants to marry into the mansion." Baoqin finally said.

When the brothers and sisters of the Xue family first came to Beijing, Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang actually wanted to match Xue Biao and Xiuyan, but Xue Biao was not thinking about it at the time, and later he became more and more angry, so he naturally wanted to If they wanted to find a better family, the Fang family became the choice, and Xiuyan's side was naturally not considered.

   "Miss Xing?" Xue Biao raised his eyebrows, he was a little surprised.

  He had a good impression of Xing Xiuyan, but it was only a good impression, and nothing else was involved.

   Xue Biao also knew that his elders intended to match his marriage with Xing Xiuyan, but from the bottom of his heart, he didn't think it was a good marriage.

The situation of Xing Xiuyan's parents, especially his father who is addicted to gambling and greedy for money, is a typical bad person who is easy to cause trouble, and Xing Xiuyan is still an only daughter. dragged down.

  It would be fine if it was just a drag on money, but with such a gambling and greedy temperament, accidents will inevitably happen in the future, which will affect the Xue family's reputation.

The Xue family is no better than the Feng family. It is still in a period of bottoming out and rebounding. It takes the good life of my generation to accumulate and accumulate for the Xue family to have a chance to prosper again. There can be no mistakes, and I am not a genius like Feng Ziying. , can be promoted in the official career, in a sense, Xue Biao hopes that his generation can lay a good foundation and pave the way for the next generation to step into a higher level.

  So although Xue Biao didn't explicitly refuse at the time, he actually wouldn't agree. When there was a better choice for Fang's family, he immediately made a choice without hesitation.

   "Well, maybe someone wanted to strengthen their reputation, so they used it as a bridge. Maybe the Xing family felt that they could not repay the favor they had received from their husband, so they simply let Xiuyan marry in. This kills two birds with one stone..."

Xue Baoqin's words didn't have too much emotional color, obviously she understood that she didn't have much say in such matters. If Xing Xiuyan really wanted to marry into Feng's family, it could only be Lin Daiyu's side, and Miaoyu's fake nun was just a matchmaker. People with great momentum don't know what Lin Daiyu thinks about this matter?

Xue Baoqin actually has a feeling of sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight in her heart. Although she also knows that if Sanfang is too powerful, it will definitely squeeze Erfang's influence and status in the Feng family, but in her opinion the most The direct threat and influence are still within the three parties.

Miaoyu is Lin Daiyu's half-sister, and she wants to marry in as a concubine. This is a marriage arranged by Lin's father. Naturally, Lin Daiyu has no way to object, but Miaoyu, a fake nun, has a sudden whim and wants to drag Xing Xiuyan into the marriage. Her own camp is nominally to boost Sanfang's momentum, but to Lin Daiyu, it means a lot.

  Based on the close relationship between Miaoyu and Xing Xiuyan, is this to build momentum for Sanfang, or to help Miaoyu maintain her favor? No matter how stupid Lin Daiyu is, she can't even see this, right?

  Although Xue Baoqin's words don't have much emotional tendency, but who is Xue Biao, and he still doesn't know his sister's temperament? No matter how well Bao Qin's words were hidden, the dissatisfaction and jealousy could not be hidden from him.

"Baoqin, this kind of thing has nothing to do with your second wife, it's about Brother Feng and Miss Lin." Xue Biao frowned and said, "You and eldest sister had better not ask too much, to avoid unnecessary disputes .”

"Brother wants to say that, it's really nothing, but..." Baoqin hesitated for a moment, "My husband doesn't have any heirs yet, so my wife is inevitably a little anxious. Now that my second sister is finally pregnant, if the third wife just gets married all at once If there are several people who come in, maybe my sister is a little worried about this. They say that my sister's body is also fertile, but it has been more than a year, and there is no movement, and now I am facing the pressure of the third family. It's inevitable that my sister has some worries."

Xue Biao took a deep breath. He felt that there might be nothing wrong with Baochai, but his sister's thoughts were a little impetuous and sharp, especially the dissatisfaction and hostility towards Sanfang, that is, Lin Daiyu's side. Living.

  This is not a good sign. Feng Ziying is mainly focused on court affairs, and doesn't have much energy to take care of the inner house. If Baoqin acts as a demon in the inner house, I'm afraid the result will not be good.

"Bao Qin, Brother Yu feels that you are not in the right mood." Xue Biao looked at the other party with bright eyes, "I just said, it's not your second room's turn to ask about the matter of the third room. It's just the opposite, don't think Brother Feng doesn't have the energy to ask about the inner house, he just turned a blind eye, but it doesn't mean he will indulge indefinitely, I think you should understand this,..."

  Brother's suddenly stern tone made Xue Baoqin startled, and his heart was filled with anger. How could even his elder brother have such an attitude?

  Is Lin Daiyu so popular? Or do you think the Lin family can hold up much more glory?

   "Brother said so, but you think I'm going to make trouble in it, little sister?" Xue Baoqin said with a sullen face, word by word.

   "I know what you have done and what you want to do. In fact, I guess Brother Feng and Sister Feng also know it in their hearts. Maybe it's to take care of your face, so everyone doesn't mention it." Xue Biao snapped back angrily.

He realized that he could no longer spoil this younger sister. This younger sister is very shrewd most of the time, but she is prone to commit violence when it comes to emotional matters. Especially Lin Daiyu seems to have become a demon in her heart. I mentioned it to myself, and now it seems that it is true.

  Xue Baoqin's heart trembled, but her mouth refused to back down: "What did I do? It's worth my brother making such a big move to open eyes for outsiders..."

   Xue Biao gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Bao Qin, I repeat, don't treat others as fools. Brother Feng is shrewd in big things, and he is not confused in small things. Even if he is stupid, he is pretending to save face for you!"
