Chapter 447 Volume C is perfect
Seeing Feng Ziying's expression, Baochai felt a little flustered and pretended to be calm: "What's wrong with this? Sister Lin's life was saved by Brother Feng. Isn't she unwilling to help now?"
"Well, that's different. Saving a life is saving a life, and giving a helping hand is a helping hand. It's only right that Brother Lian escorts and helps take care of it. If I want to get involved, there might be a story."
Feng Ziying still had the same expression that was half-smiling but not smiling, teasing Baochai and making her teeth itch with hatred.
"Is there any story coming out? If it is intentional, Brother Feng will turn the story into facts. If it is unintentional, then it is worthy of others. Why should you be afraid of such rumors?" Baochai gritted his silver teeth and said every word.
“Then sister, does she wish for her brother intentionally or unintentionally?” Feng Ziying took a step closer, so frightened that Baochai quickly looked around and said seriously: “It depends on what Brother Feng wants to do and how he arranges it.”
Feng Ziying was taken aback for a moment, and then she slowly studied these words. She was very pleased with Baochai's intelligence and she nodded, "As expected of Hui Baochai."
Hearing Feng Ziying mention her maiden name, Baochai's face was pink and red, and her charming glance almost took away half of Feng Ziying's soul.
But I saw that this girl's lotus-colored long skirt was covered with a thick silk cotton quilt, and her round and round face had a faint aura of wealth and wealth, which was as gorgeous as a peony. Compared with the pretty girl Lin's beautiful face, it was different. There is style.
"Brother Yu will be leaving Beijing the day after tomorrow. I'm afraid my sister also knows that this official business is of great importance. The provinces in Jiangnan are quarreling over this matter, which also disturbs the court. The court also intends to finalize the matter as soon as possible, so this Jiangnan trip." Feng Ziying said sternly: "I also know about the affairs of Sister Lin's family. Since Brother Lian is also going south, it is good to be able to go with him all the way. If I can help, I will naturally help, but I am worried that it will probably be Sister Lin. In family matters, second brother Lian must take charge."
Seeing Feng Ziying's expression become more formal, Baochai felt a little relieved.
For people to be able to say this in front of themselves shows that they have confidence in their hearts and have a clear conscience.
Baochai is not a person who likes to be petty, and she also understands the priorities of things.
"Brother Feng can go with peace of mind, but my little sister understands the importance clearly. Sister Lin has a bad fate. She always thought that her life was miserable after losing her father when she was young. But seeing Sister Lin, she is afraid... If Brother Feng can take care of her and comfort her, "Fan, Sister Lin must be in a much better mood."
As expected of Baochai, Feng Ziying secretly praised her, not asking about anything else at all, which not only showed her trust in herself, but also showed her magnanimity. No wonder she was able to move around like a fish in water in the Jia family, and no one could say that she was half-incompetent. Character.
Feng Ziying would not look down on such a girl just because she behaved so well. Everyone's destiny and circumstances are different. How can outsiders understand what the declining Xue family has encountered?
How can anyone else criticize a girl whose father died young and whose brother is unreliable, and what she must consider when facing such a big family’s challenge of survival and livelihood?
Feng Ziying can only say that those people are either childish and naive, or they don’t mind the pain in their backs while standing and talking.
"When my sister said this, Brother Yu felt relieved. Well, Brother Yu will hurry up and come back as soon as possible..." Feng Ziying looked at the slightly shy Baochai and blinked.
Baochai was so embarrassed that she pursed her lips and turned her head away, while Xia Fei's cheeks fell.
“Besides, I don’t know if Auntie is back. Brother Yu also wants to talk to Auntie.” Feng Ziying pondered briefly.
Baochai had also heard about Feng Ziying's maverick attitude. When Feng Ziying said this, she was naturally a little nervous, "Brother Feng, you don't have to worry about my mother. My little sister will naturally have ideas..."
"No, I know my sister has an idea, but my aunt may not think so." Feng Ziying's calm eyes made Baochai feel particularly reassured, "So I'd better talk to my aunt."
Baochai hesitated for a moment, as if he was considering the meaning of Feng Ziying's words. After a long time, he said quietly: "How should Brother Feng explain to Sister Lin?"
Feng Ziying laughed, "I thought my sister wouldn't ask this question."
Baochai’s cheeks turned red with embarrassment, her beautiful eyes were full of affection but also a little angry, “Brother Feng hasn’t answered the little sister’s question yet.”
"Whether it's Lin Yatou or my sister, I have my own arrangements for my brother." Feng Ziying said meaningfully: "My sister just needs to be trustworthy as my brother."
Feng Ziying was waiting for these words, and he felt at ease.
Although the two girls Baochai and Daiyu are very different in temperament in many aspects, there is one thing that is particularly similar, that is, they will not change things easily.
"Don't worry, sister. Brother Yu may not be able to stay together forever, but he can be sincere to others. He has admired my sister for a long time..." Feng Ziying's words were brisk but there was an unquestionable determination in her eyes. The momentum revealed by his perseverance made Baochai's heart win over.
Before Baochai could react, Feng Ziying came over, took Baochai's hand, and then kissed Baochai's astonished face like a dragonfly touching water, then let it go happily.
Baochai was stunned by Feng Ziying's sudden attack. She didn't expect that Feng Ziying, who had always been strict with etiquette, suddenly became so wild. It wasn't until Feng Ziying kissed her and left with a smile that she came to her senses and stomped her feet in a rare and shy manner. , but didn’t know how to react, so he could only look at the figure disappearing outside the door bitterly.
Aunt Xue was also shocked and confused when she learned that Feng Ziying asked for an audience.
Of course she knew that her sister and brother-in-law actually mentioned her daughter to Feng Ziying, but Feng Ziying politely declined without giving a clear answer, which disappointed Aunt Xue.
Later on, when Uncle Feng Ziying was granted the title of Marquis of Hulun by the imperial court, which meant that the Feng family could have Feng Ziying take over the family as well, Aunt Xue had another hope in her heart.
It’s just that my brother-in-law and sister seem to be focusing more on Baoyu’s future. In addition, due to the incident in the Shi family and the Ma family, they don’t have much energy to bother with the matter anymore. This also makes Aunt Xue very depressed and disappointed.
"Auntie, don't worry too much, because the situation in my nephew's family is more complicated. I'm afraid auntie also knows that in addition to the third room where my father and mother belong, my eldest uncle died in Hulunsai in the war. Now the court has named Hulunhou, and the second uncle died of illness in After taking up the post of General Soldier of Datong Town, the imperial court also intends to commend him..."
Feng Ziying's words are half true and half false. The matter about the eldest uncle is of course true, but the matter about the second uncle is groundless.
Of course, if you want to say that there is no evidence at all, that is not necessarily true. It is a fact that my second uncle died of illness and he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Datong Town. It is also a fact that he has no heirs. But as for commendation or whether there are other arrangements, it is hard to say. .
Just like his uncle who was granted the title of Marquis of Hulun, if it were not for the dazzling performance of his father and himself in suppressing the rebellion in Western Xinjiang, if it were not for his performance in the palace examination and even the selection of concubines, it would be in line with Emperor Yonglong's political views , Emperor Yonglong would take the initiative to proclaim a commander-in-chief who had not been remembered for more than ten years?
That really makes the Zhang family of Da Zhou too kind and grateful.
So Feng Ziying also saw through this. As long as she and her father showed enough use value, or made achievements that Emperor Yonglong found difficult to reward in other ways, the court might still play this trick and I commend my second uncle for his deeds of devoting all his energy to his job.
What's wrong with conferring a title on someone like a prince?
A run-down farm, a false title, free of charge, even more cost-effective than other rewards.
"Brother Keng, what do you mean..." Aunt Xue still didn't understand what Feng Ziying meant and asked in surprise.
"Aunt, my nephew can't say much about things that have not yet been determined by the court. However, the court has made it clear that my eldest uncle will be granted the title of Marquis of Hulun. However, my eldest uncle has no heirs. Isn't this pursuit of the title meaningless? Yes? So the imperial court also intends to let us, the Feng family, also serve as family members, in order to continue the incense of the Feng family in the capital..."
The words can only be said to this extent. You can't go into more depth, otherwise it will appear too obvious.
Before Lin Yatou's affairs are finalized, everything can only be left in a state of ambiguity. You can understand that your uncle Hulun Hou needs to share a house, and you can also understand that your second uncle may also be granted a posthumous title. Then you will share the same bedroom, so that no matter how you interpret it, you can make sense, and you will not be seen as a lie in their eyes.
After all, these are all facts, but it takes time and opportunity to fully implement them.
Aunt Xue didn't really understand it until Feng Ziying sent her out, but she vaguely felt that it was the Feng family's elder brother who was interested in her daughter and even promised her, but it might take some time to resolve the issues, and Feng Ziying even vaguely felt that It is not appropriate to mention this matter in a public way.
Hmm, the specific reason is maybe because you are worried about other people coming to propose marriage? It seems possible. Didn't Duan's own sister also say so? If you have a rough temperament, maybe you will choose another family?
All in all, Feng Ziying used clever rhetoric techniques and various psychological hints to make Aunt Xue understand his intentions in a confused way. This at least alleviated the pressure on Baochai and prevented Baochai from facing the pressure of her mother. It's hard to explain, it's so unfair to a girl waiting to be married.
Everything was perfect. When Feng Ziying left Lixiangyuan, she happily told Xue Pan again. There is no doubt that Aunt Xue will still ask Xue Pan, and with Xue Pan's help, everything will be perfect.
