Chapter 135: Xue Baochai Tactfully Counsels her Mother for his Brother's Sake

Bang!

As soon as the servant girl and the nannies left the room, Xue-Wang immediately brushed off several cups.

The celadon from the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty was broken into eight pieces on the ground, and Xue Baochai, who had just entered, was shocked.

After seeing clearly the angry look on her mother's face, Baochai did not hurry to ask the truth. Instead, she shouted outside and said, "Sister Tongxi, I dropped a cup by mistake. Please send someone in to clean it up."

With that, he went forward and pulled Xue-Wang into the room.

Until the servant girl outside was busy cleaning and took away the fragments of the cup, Xue Baochai then said, half coquetry and half complaint, "Mom, they haven't been far away and you have slammed the cups down. If this was leaked, how can my brother get close to Lord Sun in the future?"

"Does such people..."

Xue-Wang was so angry that she wanted to spit out Sun Shaozong's rude behavior just now, but when it came to her words, she forced herself to hold back. She was a widow for many years, so how could she say such things in front of her daughter?

She then changed her words stiffly, "You all praise that Lord Sun is unordinary. But today, I see that he is not as famous as those in the small Yamen of the Shenwu General's family! Let Pan'er stay away from him in the future!"

Xue Baochai knew that there must be a secret behind her, and she was busy showing her soft and hard ways to ask the truth.

Xue-Wang evaded her for a few words, but when she saw that she could not defeat her, she had to say, "That guy's eyes are good. He just... stared at me in front of your brother!"

While talking, she turned the handkerchief into a fried dough twist with a red face.

"What?!"

Xue Baochai stared in amazement, paused, and then couldn't help adding, "How could that be?!" Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

Xue Wang didn't want to talk about it in detail, but when she saw that her daughter didn't believe what she said, she was very angry.

For a moment, she didn't care about the taboos of decency. He raised his hand to hold half of her heavy conscience and angrily said, "I saw his thief move, looking straight here. Can it be fake?"

Xue Baochai could not help but disbelieve the ”heavy evidence” before her eyes, so her evaluation of Sun Shaozong fell by half in an instant, and some disappointment still haunted her heart.

However, after a moment's hesitation, Xue Baochai, thinking of her current situation, said on behalf of Sun Shaozong, "It's human nature to admire as a young man. Don't mention others, doesn’t my brother have the same problem? Even Brother Bao. At a young age, he already has... has..."

Baochai breathed a sigh of relief. She then reasoned, "Mom, if you are annoyed by him, you can just not call him in to speak, but you should never let my brother know about it!"

"Although Minister Wang promised to promote brother, how could he easily control the intrigues in the official arena?"

"Our Uncles can advise a few words for us, but my brother is stubborn, and he may not follow the elders' instructions."

"Only Lord Sun, who can convince my brother and cut through the difficulties in the officialdom, is his best help in the future!"

"Therefore, you must not indulge in temporary likes and dislikes, which will ruin the brother's future."

When Xue-Wang heard this, she was stunned for a long time. At last, she suddenly said, "Dear, do you like that Sun Erlang?"

This time it was Xue Baochai's turn to blush. She stamped her foot and said angrily, "What do you mean?! I was just... I was just planning for my brother. Why did I become... Besides, how could I like a rough man who wields knives and guns?!"

Xue-Wang burst out with a smile, put out her hand, and poked a finger at her forehead. She said with a smile, "So you still like the weaker one, such as Baoyu?"

"Mom!"

Xue Baochai could not resist any longer. She threw her handkerchief to hide her face and left.

After watching her daughter leave, Xue-Wang smiled on her own for a while again and then sat in front of the dresser.

Looking at those red cheeks in the mirror, and thinking about her daughter's words just now, she suddenly held her face, and a cherry-like little mouth gushed, "What a shame!"

She didn’t know whether this sudden remark was cursing others or herself...

—Dividing Line—

When Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan arrived in the back garden, they saw a young man waiting for a long time in the sea of chrysanthemums. It was the Second Master Bao of the Rongguo Mansion.

It turned out that Xue Pan had invited Jia Baoyu and Feng Ziying to accompany him yesterday, in addition to Sun Shaozong. Baoyu was a relative of the family, so he naturally arrived early, but Feng Ziying was late.

"Second Brother."

The three people made a few polite remarks to each other, and then listened to Baoyu's conversation and asked curiously, "I saw that your flower beds were all bulldozed to the ground that day. I don't know what the meaning of this new rule is?"

Hearing that he asked about this matter on his own initiative, Sun Shaozong smiled bitterly. He was about to explain the reason, but suddenly he had an idea again, and he thought, why not turn the trick to his own use?
