Chapter 221 Progress

Shen Ning didn't want to find out too much about what kind of person Xue Baochai was.

The Jia family is no longer the Jia family in Dream of Red Mansions, and Baoyu is not the phoenix egg of the entire Jia family.

As for Lin Daiyu, she has both parents and a smart and lovely younger brother Lin Changan. Her life trajectory has long been different. Xue Baochai wants to be someone else's sister, but to be honest, she is not qualified at all.

But these are what Jia Min has to take care of.

Shen Ning has no intention of interfering with what happens to them.

Personally speaking, Xue Baochai actually has what she likes.

If she hadn't been so thoughtful, if she hadn't been so ruthless...

Shen Ning felt that she would like her very much.

It's a pity that there are not so many ifs in this world.

"Mrs. Xue raised a good daughter."

Don't reach out to hit someone with a smiling face, especially if they come to visit you in the name of a relative.

Shen Ning smiled at the girl who looked very girlish.

In the Grand View Garden, Sister Bao's erudition is obvious to all.

He has extensive exposure to literature, art, history, medicine, various schools of thought, Buddhist classics, etc.

But she is also worldly, smooth, hypocritical, cunning, ruthless, indifferent, and good at using means.

The former is appreciated by Shen Ning, the latter...

The smile in Shen Ning's eyes faded a lot, "I wonder what book you have read?"

"Read four books!"

This time Xue Baochai didn't talk about the Four Books for Women.

She had already inquired that Mrs. Shen herself was a scholar. Because she loved reading, she specially invited the female teachers to come here to study in Yingchun.

If possible, she would also like to come and study.

Although her background was inferior to that of the ladies from the Duke's family, Xue Baochai felt that she could crush all of them academically.

"I heard from my cousin that Sister Yingchun and the others are studying here..."

"Oh, their little sisters are still helping me manage the house."

Inexplicably, Shen Ning didn't want her to come over.

If Baoyu is no longer the target of the Xue family, then who will be next?

Brother Rong's age and background may be more attractive to the Xue family.

Shen Ning interrupted what Xue Baochai wanted to say, "I heard from Feng Yatou that Mrs. Xue wants Mr. Ling to go to the Jia family to study as an associate student?"

ah?

"Yes!"

Aunt Xue immediately forgot about her daughter and focused on her son's affairs, "I have heard about the Jia family learning famous names for a long time. My Pan'er is naughty. I wonder if I can learn from him?"

“Mrs.

In the Red Mansion, neither mother nor daughter liked Wang Xifeng very much. In many cases, Xue Baochai would directly call her Feng girl.

It was as if she was not a cousin but an elder.

Shen Ning loves Sister Feng very much.

After a series of changes in the family, Sister Feng and Jia Lian were full of desire for survival. She looked at it from a distance and found it quite cute.

"Although there is no relationship between the Jia family and the Wang family, Feng girl is a good girl. We elders will naturally see her. You go tell her. You don't have to tell her everything. She can just do whatever she wants."< br>


Shen Ning said: "However, has Mrs. Xue inquired about the clan school? It's not a place where you can fish for three days and dry nets for two days. Once you go in, you can't be lazy. At least within three years, he can't drop out of school. .”

"I asked about it."

In fact, I didn't inquire carefully.

Aunt Xue is more concerned about Jia Rong, the heir to Ningguo Mansion, who is studying there.

It is said that next year my aunt Jia Min's son Lin Chang'an will also enter.

If her Pan'er also goes, he will be classmates with them from now on.

"I heard that the school also organizes children to do eye exercises every day?"

This is something new.

Xue Pan was very interested after hearing this.

"Oh, children's eyes are hurt by studying. Choose a fixed time every day and rub and massage them according to the method recorded in "Saint Franciscan Records". It is very friendly to the eyes."

She found the "Saint Ji Zonglu" compiled by Song Shitai Hospital while searching her original memory.

Of course, arrangements must be made for the children.

Shen Ning smiled and said: "As long as Mr. Ling likes it, I wonder if I should go to school before the new year or after the new year?"

There is no such thing as winter vacation here.

However, Shen Ning hopes that Xue Pan will go in again next year.

Otherwise, what if he doesn’t want to study anymore and runs away while visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year?

Shen Ning also planned to read more jokes.

Of course, transformation is also her goal.

Xue Pan here hasn't killed anyone yet, and he doesn't have a maid named Xiang Ling by his side.

It is always good for him to read more Dazhao Laws and have more respect for life.

Xue Pan is a typical playboy.

He is wanton, arrogant and domineering, indulges in lust, and does not even take human life seriously.

But Shen Ning remembered that when he went to Jiangnan, he also remembered to bring some toys from his hometown to Sister Lin.

He values ​​loyalty and affection, and knows how to be a companion when his sister and mother are sad.

To Shen Ning, it was completely out of control.

Aunt Xue indulges and pampers her without any restraint, plus she is seduced...

“It wasn’t very good a year ago.”

Aunt Xue didn't know how much was going through Shen Ning's mind at this moment, but she was still very happy that people cared about her son, "I haven't been to Beijing for many years. The relatives are leaving, the shopkeepers want to meet, and I will be busy after the new year." The work is almost done and he can go to school in peace and contentment.”

But whether it's visiting relatives or meeting the shopkeeper, it can be said that Pan'er is going to study in the Jia family.

"...That's the truth!"

Shen Ning smiled and chatted a few more words before seeing the guests off.

"Mother~"

You brought the gift list over and said, "Look, the Xue family has sent many gifts."

"Well, I'll tell the guards who are on duty at clan school later to be more strict with Xue Pan when he goes to school."

Shen Ning only glanced at it and said: "When Mr. Wen can't control it, they will come."

ah?

Youshi was a little dazed.

"Children, if they don't obey, just spank them more."

Shen Ning smiled and said, "Although Xue Pan is a little older now, it is precisely because he is a little older that we need to take better care of him."

After crossing over, she kept trying to hit Jia Zhen, but unfortunately she never succeeded.

She wanted to hit Baoyu, but the little guy was still young and pitiful now.

If you get a rare Xue Pan, your wish may come true.

"...Oh!"

Youshi was thoughtful.

Not to mention anything else, it is true that the mother-in-law wanted to discipline Xue Pan.

Then just take care of it!

Herding a sheep is herding, and herding a flock of sheep is herding.

The guards have experience in this matter.

They happily decided Xue Pan's future, but Xue Baochai, who returned to Rongguo Mansion, couldn't help but look back at Ningguo Mansion.

Everyone said that Mrs. Shen liked girls very much.

But why does it feel like this is not the case today?

She doesn't seem to like her very much.

Xue Baochai didn't know what he had done wrong.

If she wants to enter the palace, she needs Mrs. Shen's help.

It is said that Mrs. Gaoming of the first rank has a very good relationship with the queen. When Prince Jin was still very powerful, she could slap Princess Jin in the face in front of many wives without giving her any face.

For the emperor and the queen, it must be their own people.

Last night, mother and daughter were shocked by the news that my brother came back from his inquiry.

The Zhen family, which was thought to be very powerful, is likely to collapse soon.

It's a pity that their family has already given out this year's New Year's gift. However, the Zhen family fell and they moved into the Jia family. Whoever rises in Jiangnan in the future should be more polite to the Xue family.

Xue Baochai sighed lowly.

"My son, do you also want to go to Dongfu to study like Miss Min and Miss Lin?"

"Hmm~"

Xue Baochai's voice was muffled.

She wanted to go to school, but Mrs. Shen obviously supported her brother to go to the Jia family to study as an associate student, but pretended not to hear what she meant.

Baochai suspected that this was related to her origin.

She is a businessman.

But those who study in Dongfu, even Min Mei's father is an official.

She is still the serious granddaughter of the Jia family.

There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

She...

"Don't worry yet!"

Aunt Xue patted her daughter's hand and said, "Didn't you hear that they are going to help Ling return to his hometown next year? I will tell your cousin then that you should also go to Yingchun and Tanchun more and wait for them. I’m going to school, I’ll beg the old lady again, it will definitely work.”

So what if you sacrifice your face for a pair of children?

Besides, her Baochai is so nice, Aunt Xue believes that Mrs. Shen will definitely like her if she sees her more.

"Well, I listen to my mother."

Baochai nodded.

The mother's plan was actually her plan.

The Jia family is the only place that can elevate her status.

The daughter of the Jia family is now very distinguished in the capital, and studying with them... no matter whether she can enter the palace as she wishes, it will be a matter of great benefit and no harm to her.

Xue Baochai looked forward to coming early next year. When she returned to the small courtyard with her mother, Xue Pan had already gone home.

"Why don't you stay in the shop longer?"

The shopkeepers in the shop are all very capable, and Aunt Xue wanted her son to learn more from them.

"The new year is here and shopkeepers are very busy."

Xue Pan said hurriedly: "Mom, do you know what they are busy with now?"

"What are you busy with?"

"My son heard that the imperial army was dispatched today and ransacked the home of an adult from the Ministry of Revenue."

Xue Pan's voice became softer, "With so many things copied, we must put them out! Today, Shopkeeper Li and the others were called by the Ministry of Internal Affairs for valuation."

this?

Aunt Xue couldn't help but get excited.

Doing business is just about buying low and selling high.

The items confiscated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are lower than the market price. If the Xue family can get more...

"Did Shopkeeper Li tell you how much money our family needs to prepare?"

"Not yet."

Xue Pan shook his head, "He only said that the items sent out by the Ministry of Internal Affairs this time are likely to be good and inferior, and sold together."

That's it!

"Brother, you should be with Shopkeeper Li. Even if you don't know anything, it's good to gain knowledge!"

My brother actually came back.

Baochai couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"Did you hear that? If you encounter this again, just follow."

"...What's there to follow?"

It's boring to say the least, and I have to bow down to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Xue Pan was not happy, "Didn't Mom say that I should go to the Jia family to study as an associate school? Is it done?"

Instead of following Shopkeeper Li and the others around, he might as well go to school to play.

"It's done, you can go to school at the beginning of next year."

Seeing that her son was unhappy, Aunt Xue hurriedly comforted her: "It's almost time for a holiday now..."

"I want to go to school, but you won't let me."

Xue Pan immediately said: "What kind of holiday? Aren't there still a few days left?" He would go and have a look first. If it doesn't work, he wouldn't go next year. "Mom, either I will go to study tomorrow, or..."


“Go if you want to!”

Baochai stopped her brother's angry words and said, "But the Jia family's family education is better than other places. It will take at least three years to go there."

What?

Xue Pan stared, "Why didn't I hear about it?"

"My mother and I just came back from Dongfu. Mrs. Shen said it herself."

ah?

Xue Pan looked at his mother.

Aunt Xue nodded, "Are you still going?"

Xue Pan retreated.

But my sister looked at her and looked like she was waiting for his rejection...

"I'll go!"

"...Okay then!"

Aunt Xue had no choice but to say, "I'll go tell Feng Yatou."

"Mom, don't worry!"

Xue Baochai grabbed her mother and said, "I heard in a daze yesterday that there is some sweet rice over there. Can my brother get used to it? How about we find out more about it before we talk!"

Everyone has said that you can’t fish for three days and dry your nets for two days.

My brother is gone. If he breaks other people's rules... I'm afraid he will even have a bad impression of her.

"Why do you think of bitterness and sweet rice? If the Jia family can eat it, I can eat it."

Xue Pan shouted: "Sister, don't underestimate me."

Can you blame him for not making progress?

He finally wanted to make progress, but either his mother or his sister stopped him.

Xue Pan considered himself a man. The children of the duke's family could eat it, so why couldn't he eat it?

"But... Mrs. Shen also said that you can't fish for three days and dry the nets for two days."

Xue Baochai seemed to hesitate and said: "She is the first-class wife. My brother also said yesterday that she dared to beat up Princess Jin. If you continue to pretend to be sick or lose your temper like before, even if mom wants to speak for you, she will just I’m afraid.”

"Yes, yes!"

Aunt Xue was secretly pulled by her daughter and quickly echoed: "Pan'er, why don't you go and inquire again?"

"...No need!"

Xue Pan gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to study!"

Today, he was going to his uncle's house.

But the second uncle is not at home, and neither is the cousin.

Only two aunts were there.

This is obviously a disdain for their family.

Hum~

They looked down upon him and he was not willing to go.

Although Xue Pan is very messy, he can still feel how others treat him.

If he didn't go to school, his mother would definitely cry and yell, asking him to go to his uncle's house.

After studying, his mother would definitely focus on his studies.

"Sure, I'll go find Feng Yatou right now."

It was rare for her son to want to make progress. Although Aunt Xue still had some doubts in her heart, she was more happy and said, "Baochai, help your brother prepare some apprenticeship ceremonies."

Although this year has passed, it is equivalent to giving one more apprenticeship ceremony and training, but how can money be as important as Pan'er's progress?

Aunt Xue hurriedly went to find Sister Feng.

"The aunt of Gangdong Mansion also told me."

When Sister Feng heard her aunt recounting her uncle's praise for her, Sister Feng pursed her lips and smiled. She was so proud, not to mention energetic, "But didn't aunt say next year?"

"Hey, that's what I said at the time."

Aunt Xue was beaming with joy, "But isn't it because Pan'er heard that the Jia family has learned well and wants to make progress?"

"That's it, I'll ask cousin Min to go to the school and talk to the gentlemen."

Wang Xifeng didn't even ask for help.

Letting Min Jianbai go is a sign of respect, "It's convenient to have cousin Min here to become a disciple."
