The four of them casually talked a few words about the topic of "The whole He family has been executed.”
Seeing that the lingering charm of the storm had gradually subsided, Sun Shaozong found a way to explain his idea of inviting Daiyu to live in the Sun Mansion for so ti, because he was afraid that he might eat and live on the river embanknt for a while and he was afraid that Ruan Rong would be at ho alone and worry about affecting the fetus too much.
Jia Lian pondered for a while, tasting the wine in his mouth, and says, "Erlang, it's not that I deny your idea. There's no decent hostess in your Mansion. Sister Lin is also the precious of the Old Lady and Brother Bao..."
Sure enough, he hit a nail.
It's a pity that Jia Baoyu was ill now. Otherwise, if he talked about it to him first, he would still have so hope. Now…
Sun Shaozong was about to laugh at himself for being "rude" and "rash," but he heard Xue Pan say, "If Sister Lin can't go, I have a suitable candidate here. Xiangling in my house is usually the most obedient person. Even my sister-in-law saw her a few days ago, she couldn't help but like her. You might as well take her back to serve sister-in-law."
At that ti, when he was drunk in the Jinxiang Courtyard, he also said that he would give Sun Shaozong, Xiangling. However, when he woke up, there was no news. Therefore, Sun Shaozong only regarded it as drunk nonsense.
Who knew that after a few months, he has brought up the old sayings again!
Rembering Ruan Rong's words at that ti, Sun Shaozong didn't rush to refuse. He had to wonder, "I heard that Xiangling was the concubine you took, not a simple servant girl without any title. How can you be willing to let her serve others?"
"Well..."
Xue Pan's eyes turned wildly and his mouth stamred, "I'm going to get married now. I heard that Wang's daughter is a person that gets jealous easily. It's better to send Xiangling away first and wait for her to pass the door before she causes trouble."
Hearing this, they knew that it was not true and there was sothing hidden.
But since he intended to hide it, Sun Shaozong didn't ask much in front of the people.
.
He was hesitating whether to go along with it or to make a few more concessions, but he heard Jia Lian yell, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Since both of them are concubines, how can we let Xiangling serve? It's better to choose two effective servant girls from my side and keep the concubine of Erlang comfortable!"
Not only Sun Shaozong and Feng Ziying could understand his expression, but even Xue Pan, who was so big-minded and naive, could also see that Jia Lian was having thoughts about Xiangling.
Xue Pan felt the displeasure at once. It's nothing to send “plaything-like” concubines to people on their initiative, but they couldn’t be stolen by others!
If it was in the past, he would have had to endure it. But now that he was going to be the son-in-law of Minister Wang, his courage has been strengthened.
So he glared with his cow's eyes and shouted, "What kind of concubine is not a concubine? It's just a ”plaything.” If I give it to soone else, I may not be willing. But I'm happy to give it to Brother Sun!"
With this, Xue Pan shouted to the servant and said, "Go and tell Xiangling to pack up first, and then she will return with brother sun!"
This remark made Jia Lian lose face. He poured a few cups of wine despite himself. However, when he thought of Xiangling’s body shape, the wine always seed to have a sour taste.
Not to ntion how Sun Shaozong went along with his words and thanked him.
It was only said that after Xiangling got the news. She was stunned for a long ti before she went to look for Concubine Xue with red eyes. When she ca to the front of Concubine Xue, she didn't say anything but knelt on the ground, wipe her tears, and sobbed.
Concubine Xue also got the news long ago. She was always pleased with her cleverness normally. She could not help but hold her in her arms and cry together calling, "My dear, my dear".
Xue Baochai stood by silently, waiting for the two of them to vent their emotions. She then pulled Xiangling and said, "You should know that this is an important ti, Sister. Although my mother and I like you very much, we have no choice."
"Fortunately, Mr. Sun has a great future and always favors people. If you go to his mansion later, I'm afraid it's a hundred tis better than my brother, who doesn’t care about anything. "
Although this remark was completely different from what she had said with Ying'er at that ti, it was about "fighting between wives and concubines.” When Xiangling went off, she was at most just a concubine, and her rank was still under Ruan Rong's, so there was no need to worry about any conflict between Ruan Rong and her.
That Xiangling only covered her face and sobbed. After a mont, she sobbed, "I... I just can't bear to part with my madam and my lady..."
Hearing that she only said she was reluctant to part with her mother and herself and did not ntion Xue Pan at all, Baochai knew that she had actually "agreed" to this marriage in her heart. So she decided on Concubine Xue and chose a set of festive headgear to exchange with her, which should be a dowry.
When Xiangling was dressed up and packed up two bags of her luggage, she heard another report from soone in the pavilion saying that the banquet will have to end ahead of ti because the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Now that Sun Shaozong was about to leave for his house, Xue Pan asked soone to call Xiangling out.
After hearing this, Xiangling said goodbye to Concubine Xue and Baochai with red eyes and then followed the young servant out of the Yiran House.
—Dividing Line—
After the banquet in the pavilion was over, Feng Ziying took a step ahead with a feeling of intoxication. After two rounds of pleasantries, Jia Lian said that he was unable to drink and went straight back to his yard.
Therefore, only Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan were waiting in front of the Jia Mansion.
Sun Shaozong took the opportunity to pull the foolish Overlord aside and asked in a low voice, "What's the secret of sending Xianglian to ?"
"I can't hide anything from my Second Brother!"
Xue Pan did not continue hiding it, so he told Sun Shaozong the reason in the doorway.
It turned out that when he bought Xiangling, Xue Pan clashed with a young man surnad Feng. As a result, his servants accidentally killed the man and got into a lawsuit. At that ti, Jia Yucun was the one who handled the case.
Jia Yucun pretended that Xue Pan had died of illness and ended the case in a muddle.
At that ti, Xue Pan thought that he had gotten a bargain. Who knew, he was already a "dead man" in the official registered residence? He could no longer be an official, receive a salary, and return to his hotown in Jinling!
He was a worthless Lord, and because he could not inherit his father and grandfather’s title of nobility, he beca more and more unable to restrain those in charge below. He could only watch the business of the Xue family decline year by year.
He had no idea how Minister Wang heard about it and used it as a bargaining chip for this marriage. He said that as long as the Xue family agreed to marry, he would settle the lawsuit for Xue Pan, and later he would be able to inherit his father's rank of nobility. It was for this reason that Baochai urged Xue Pan to marry the Wang family's daughter.
Since it was necessary to completely end this case, how could Xiangling, as the cause of this matter, continue to stay within the Xue family?
Therefore, Xue Pan ntioned giving him a concubine for the second ti today.
Sun Shaozong listened to the causes and consequences, and only then did he dispel his doubts.
Just as he was about to instruct Xue Pan to be careful, he saw a young woman curling up in the rain.
She was about 15 or 16 years old, she ca slowly with a paper umbrella in her hand. Her head was a little fluttering with pearls. In the dignified tranquility, there was so flavor of a young girl. In particular, the natural rouge mark in the middle of her eyebrows, just like the finishing touch, added a lot of charm.
If he were to look at that figure again, although she was wrapped in a skirt, he could also see that she was 70 percent mature and 30 percent pure. It was the best ti to pick and polish!
After watching it for a long ti, Sun Shaozong couldn't help looking back and asked Xue Pan suspiciously, "Are you really willing to send such a beautiful girl?"
