Hearing Baochai's words,
The girls were interested.
Growing up in the garden,
Naturally, he was curious about everything.
Otherwise, books like The Western Chamber and The Peony Pavilion wouldn't have become the favorite of girls.
Tanchun teased mischievously,
"Oh, long time no see! He must have seen her often in the past. Tsk tsk, Sister Bao, I didn't see it!”
Xiang Yun also teased,
"Right, right! He was a scholar, and at such a young age. It was no wonder that Sister Bao was thinking about him. Oh right, just now in Rongqing Hall, he heard the concubine say it. Sister Bao, is this Brother Huang good?”
Seeing that Daiyu was looking at him with gossipy eyes,
Baochai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"You guys, don't come here to mess with me. How is it like this? I only met Brother Huang twice. Although I was still young at that time, I still had to be polite. I just have a good personal relationship with my brother and have been to my house a few times.”
Hearing that Jia Huang and Xue Pan were on good terms,
The girls immediately stopped gossiping.
Although he had never met Xue Pan,
But he also knew what Xue Pan was like.
Seeing their expressions, Baochai said helplessly,"
"Don't think that Brother Huang is like my brother. They got to know each other because Brother Huang helped my brother deal with some troublesome matters back then. Speaking of which, Brother Huang's background was also very miserable.”
Daiyu's eyes lit up.
Miserable?
How could this be what he imagined?
Thinking back to the time when he first arrived at Rong Mansion, he was cautious and afraid of being laughed at.
Although it won't be like this anymore,
However, without his family by his side, who would know the pain in his heart?
If Jia Huang knew what Lin Daiyu was thinking,
He was probably going to laugh out loud.
She was still a little girl.
She had been sad since she was young.
Seeing Daiyu's expression, Baochai smiled and said,"
"When he was young, his family was infected with a serious illness. Later on, his parents didn't make it and both passed away. He was lucky to have survived. Although he had his clansmen to take care of him, his life was tough, but he didn't have to worry about food and drink.”
"If it were anyone else, they would probably continue to be decadent, but he didn't. Instead, he started studying hard. Later on, he even found some lost recipes from ancient books and started a business with others. Just like that, she studied while taking care of her family. In just a few years, not only did the family's complexion gradually improve, but they had even become a scholar.”
Xiang Yun opened her mouth wide and said,
"So powerful? Doing business while studying? Wouldn't he be a capable person? I'll go ask them later. What kind of business are they doing? Maybe they can't support the family?”
Tanchun patted Xiang Yun with her fan.
They all knew that Xiangyun's family wasn't doing well.
After all, the Shi family was divided into two.
However, there were no more rewards.
After the original family assets were divided, their lives became even worse.
Sometimes, Xiang Yun would help the family with needlework and even stay up late to do it.
Actually, there was nothing too dark about this.
The women of this era…
No matter what else,
Needlework alone was a must.
The wedding dress was usually embroidered by herself.
Xiangyun also made food for her aunt and herself.
He wasn't being harsh on purpose.
Tanchun smiled and defended,
"Even if he has such an idea, it's not something you should ask. Could it be that he was in a hurry to get married and wanted to ask about the other party's family background?”
"Bah! The third girl was not a good person! Watch how I deal with you!"
Xiang Yun's face turned red.
She immediately ran to Tanchun to scratch the itch.
Seeing Baochai, Daiyu, Yingchun, and Little Xichun giggle happily.
Baochai shook her head and laughed.
"I'm not sure. I just heard from my mother that his business is doing well and that he works well with the four big families in Jinling. But thinking about it, he knew that he must have received the help of many people. Otherwise, at that age, wouldn't he have been deceived by many people?”
"Actually, business is just a small matter. Only those who have insight into the path of Confucianism and become a scholar should talk about it. Lord Lin was devoted to the country and had been a salt inspector in Lianghuai for so many years. When had he ever accepted a disciple? He must have seen some good points in him that would make him like him, just like Second Elder Wen.”
Although Daiyu always felt that she and Baochai did not get along,
But hearing Baochai praise her father like this,
She still looked up proudly and said,
"Father's strength of character is rare in this world. Now that he had accepted him as a disciple, he must have discovered something extraordinary. Otherwise, why would he take in disciples so easily? This lineage was very important!”
Tanchun was pressed against the chair by Xiang Yun and tickled.
As he resisted, he begged for mercy,
"Little Yun, I was wrong. I won't talk to you anymore! I was wrong. It wasn't you who was in a hurry to get married. It wasn't you. Think about it, if he was Lord Lin's disciple, wouldn't he be Sister Lin's Senior Brother? Aiya, so many storybooks were written like this!”
When Daiyu heard this, she said,
Instantly, her face turned red.
He stood up and spat,
"Third girl, you're so talkative. I won't forgive you today!”
