The destiny of all heavens begins in the Red Chamber

Xue Pan was quite direct, saying helplessly, "This promising young military talent was supposed to be my brother-in-law, which would have been a great source of pride for me. Now I can only watch helplessly!"

Wow……

Xue Baochai was already filled with regret, and with Xue Pan expressing his remorse in various ways, she couldn't help but burst into tears, completely breaking down.

"Baochai, Baochai, don't cry! Pan'er, look what you've done!"

Aunt Xue panicked and hurriedly tried to comfort him, but couldn't help giving Xue Pan a disapproving look.

Although Xue Pan felt sorry for his sister, he stubbornly did not take the initiative to comfort her.

It wasn't that the siblings had grown distant, but rather that he wanted to teach his sister a profound lesson.

With his help as the elder brother to make decisions on such an important matter as marriage, there's no need for so much calculation of interests, making it seem like a business transaction.

Who is Huan-ge? How could he possibly stand this?

It's actually not so bad if the conflict breaks out early; at least it's better than causing trouble after the marriage.

Of course, Xue Baochai, the younger sister, would have to pay the price. Becoming Jia Cong's legitimate wife would not be so easy, or rather, it would be unlikely.

Xue Pan now thinks it's actually quite good. His younger sister has clearly climbed the social ladder; given her background, it would be extremely difficult for her to integrate into the circle of noblewomen.

With his attitude, Xue Baochai, being so clever, immediately understood and cried even more bitterly.

If she had seen "A Chinese Odyssey," she would probably have imagined it in her mind.

After crying until she was exhausted and stopped, Xue Baochai naturally went back to her room to rest, leaving the space to her mother, Aunt Xue, and her brother, Xue Pan.

Only close relatives would appreciate such shrewdness; otherwise, to outsiders, it wouldn't be so appealing.

"Pan'er, do you think there's still a chance for Cong-ge'er and your sister?"

Although it was difficult to say, Aunt Xue had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak up for her daughter's sake, her face full of trepidation and anticipation.

"It's impossible for me to become the only legitimate wife!"

Xue Pan said directly, "Times have changed. Even if Brother Cong has no objections, Master She will not agree. It's because my sister and Brother Cong couldn't get married smoothly before."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Xue became somewhat dazed and her expression turned dejected.

"Mother, don't think too much about it!"

Seeing this, Xue Pan couldn't help but say, "When Huan-ge'er turned hostile before, since he didn't make any absolute statements, there's still room for maneuver!"

"At most, my sister can only fight for the status of a secondary wife!"

Seeing that Aunt Xue did not show any dissatisfaction, he continued, "I think it's alright. My sister will have the opportunity to become a noblewoman in the future. I just don't know what my sister thinks!"

If he still wanted to take a gamble, he wouldn't bother with all this nonsense.

The rules outside are, after all, set by men, and Xue Baochai, the younger sister, isn't the kind of person with the courage to break them, which can only mean that her standards are too high.

In fact, Aunt Xue and Xue Pan had similar thoughts.

After all this trouble, Jia Cong is the most suitable marriage partner, without a doubt.

As for Jia Baoyu, get out of here! Didn't you see that even the three sisters of the Spring Festival are avoiding him?

That silly girl, Shi Xiangyun, insisted on coming over to keep Jia Baoyu company, causing a ruckus at home.

Given the Xue family's circumstances, the only official families they could marry into, besides the Jia and Wang families, were the Jia and Wang families.

The Wang family clearly looks down on the Xue family, so why bother trying to win them over?

As for the Rong Mansion, Lady Wang has been vague in her answer, so it would be better to choose Jia Cong, who has a better future.

"Mother, you must find out what my sister is thinking as soon as possible!"

Seeing that Aunt Xue had taken his advice to heart, Xue Pan then instructed, "I will go over to offer my congratulations by noon at the latest!"

"The only way is to take advantage of that time to clarify things with Huan-ge, otherwise it will only be more difficult later!"

"Tell Huan-ge'er?"

Aunt Xue looked puzzled and asked, "Isn't it Master She?"

Xue Pan chuckled and said, "Master She is indeed Brother Cong's biological father, but he never cared about Brother Cong before. Mother knows that!"

Aunt Xue nodded. The Rong family's rules were also strange, and they looked down on children born out of wedlock.

Sometimes she wondered, if they looked down on illegitimate children so much, why did they have to be born to suffer?

"As for Huan and his brother, they pulled Cong and his brother out of the Rong Mansion to study!"

"After that, when Brother Cong practiced martial arts, it was basically Brother Huan who helped collect martial arts techniques and other training resources, all of which were provided by Brother Huan!"

"The saying 'the poor study literature, the rich study martial arts' is not just a joke. When Brother Cong was practicing martial arts, the medicinal meals he needed, as well as the various auxiliary medicinal baths and other methods, were all bought with real money!"

"The most outrageous thing is that Brother Huan somehow managed to persuade the Ning family to give up the martial arts training method passed down from the late Duke of Ning and let Cong-ge practice it!"

"It's fair to say that without Brother Huan's strong support, it would have been impossible for Brother Cong to become a martial arts 3rd-ranked scholar at such a young age!"

At this point, Xue Pan took a breath and smiled, "Brother Cong is a calm and steady person, and he is not an ungrateful person. Naturally, he will follow Brother Huan's lead!"

Aunt Xue was stunned, and stammered, "Is this true? That's too exaggerated!"

If that's the case, then Jia Huan has a huge influence on Jia Cong, so his opinion must be taken seriously.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel regretful again. I really shouldn't have revealed my presence to Jia Huan.

I'm afraid that in Jia Huan's mind, she and Baochai have a very bad impression of each other, and it won't be easy to change that.

"Exaggerated? There's something even more outrageous coming up!"

Xue Pan was naturally unaware that his mother, Aunt Xue, had thought of so much in such a short time.

At this moment, he said with a sigh, "In terms of martial arts alone, Brother Huan should be stronger than Brother Cong!"

Seeing the incredulous look on his mother, Aunt Xue's face, he smiled wryly and said, "Brother Cong said it himself. Given his personality, it's highly credible that he would say such a thing!"

"In other words, if the Huan brothers participate in the martial arts examination, they could probably become the top martial arts scholar with ease!"

These words struck like a thunderbolt, leaving Aunt Xue feeling numb and unsure of what to say.

That's an exaggeration. What Xue Pan said must be quite an exaggeration.

But if that's true, then Jia Huan's future would be even more outrageous.

If I remember correctly, Jia Huan is only twelve years old this year, right?

"Mother, Huan's opinion is very important!"

Xue Pan smiled wryly and said, "It's just that I've known him for several years, and our relationship is quite good!"

"Only then can I bring up the matter of my sister with him again. We absolutely cannot allow any more setbacks, otherwise the marriage will have to be called off, lest we offend both of these brothers, which is no laughing matter!"

Aunt Xue nodded subconsciously, her heart filled with trepidation.

She listened to Xue Pan's reminder and felt that it was the right thing to do.

Let's put aside Xue Baochai's ambitions for now. We can't afford to lose such a good marriage prospect; it would be too late to regret it later.

In fact, Xue Baochai overheard Xue Pan and Aunt Xue's conversation.

At this point, there's no room for arrogance; the priority is to seize the opportunity.

Therefore, when Aunt Xue came over in a hurry to ask, Xue Baochai agreed without hesitation.

We're all blood relatives, there's no need to play any tricks like playing hard to get. What if we go too far?

With his sister's approval, Xue Pan hurriedly headed to the martial arts school, carrying the generous gifts he had prepared beforehand.

When he arrived, the martial arts school had already turned into a sea of ​​joy.

The news that Jia Cong had passed the martial arts exam and become the third-ranked martial arts scholar reached the martial arts school immediately.

It could be said that everyone was overjoyed and encouraged. The brothers surrounded Jia Cong, showering him with congratulatory words as if they were free. It was a truly festive occasion.

Jia Cong could not hide his excitement, his face flushed with joy as he repeatedly clasped his hands in thanks.

His first glance was at Jia Huan standing on the steps; his eyes quickly turned red with gratitude.

Jia Huan smiled slightly and waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to do that, and was very satisfied with Jia Cong's calm attitude.

Even at this point, he hasn't completely lost his head; he's destined for greatness!

"Give the order to have the best restaurant nearby, Zuixianlou, send thirty tables of food to the martial arts school as quickly as possible. We need to have a proper celebration!"

People are in high spirits when they are happy, and Jia Huan had no intention of suppressing his brothers' emotions. He waved his hand and shouted, "Brothers, drink to your hearts' content today! We won't leave until we're drunk!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was greeted with cheers and shouts!

"He actually passed the exam, and he's even the third-ranked martial arts scholar!"

The core members of the Rong family were completely dumbfounded when they received the news.

Despite having been somewhat mentally prepared, hearing such news still left me shaken and unable to recover for a long time.

"Brother, congratulations!"

The Second Master Zheng was the first to react. Despite being filled with envy, he still congratulated the First Master She.

Even though Jia Cong had left the mansion, he was still the son of Master She.
