Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 258

Xue Wang said with a smile: "Holy will is unpredictable, who knows if there will be such a day? However, it seems that Jia's mansion is still safe, especially in Rongguo mansion, your brothers are still promising, Baoyu... If he can study hard in the future, I'm afraid he won't have a bright future. We're not fortune tellers, so who can predict what will happen in the future?"

Baochai nodded, but said nothing.It's just that this matter still made her worry about it, so she went home and told Xue Hong.

After hearing this, Xue Hong nodded repeatedly.The historian of strange ways is the only one among the four major families with a clear mind. It turns out that it is not because their minds are clear-headed, but because their family was the first to recover their life from the edge of the cliff, and they exchanged the peace and happiness at the cost of the death of their eldest son and grandson. , don't you want to cherish it?
Xue Hong just smiled and said: "You can also say that Sister Shi has become a woman after she got married, but why are you still worrying about it now?"

Baochai frowned and sighed: "It's not that I don't see it, but now that Yun'er lives in Rongguo Mansion, where is there a good place to stand? The slaves are like wolves, and Yun'er has no money in his hands. She is such a naive and lively person, knowing that she will be wronged, I really feel bad."

Xue Hong said seriously: "Baochai, listen to what my second brother said. Although our family is used to doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, we are not living Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. We can help anyone who is in trouble in life. What about Sister Shi? Can't reach out, she has uncles and aunts who love her, what level of people are we? It's really inconvenient to intervene. Besides, even if we want to take care of it, where do we start?"

Sometimes Baochai really doesn't like Xue Hong's overly cleverness. Seeing that Xue Hong saw through her little thoughts, she was a little unhappy, but she knew that what Xue Hong said was very reasonable, so she just said in a dazed way: "Then...then I can't bear to see Yanyun girl being abused like that by the servants of the Rongguo Mansion..."

Speaking of the servants of the Rongguo Mansion, Xue Hong hated it too much, but after all, it was not his family's business, so what could he do?
Xue Hong sighed: "Hey... That's really too much. But after all, we can't control so many. But... if Sister Shi wants to make more money, it's not impossible, but she As a girl, there are some things that are not convenient to come forward..."

As soon as Baochai heard this, she knew that her resourceful second brother had already softened her heart, so she said coquettishly: "My good brother, I knew you would have a way, and you have to listen to what kind of way you want to know if it is feasible or not." Okay?"

Seeing Baochai's appearance, Xue Hong struggled for a long time, but finally shook her head: "I really can't do anything with you, girl. If you insist on listening, then listen to me."

Baochai joyfully followed Xue Hong's advice, but as for what the little siblings said after biting their ears for a long time, of course no one knew, only Baochai happily clapped her hands after hearing Xue Hong's words. He clapped his hands: "Oh, what did I say? You will definitely find a solution! I will tell Sister Yun tomorrow, and she will be happy to hear it."

However, Baochai didn't go to Chengrongguo's mansion the next day, not because of anything else, but because Baoyu lost his temper last night, not only smashing the teacup, but also driving his own nanny, Nanny Li, out of the mansion.Xiangyun stayed with Baoyu all the time, persuading and enlightening Baochai, but Baochai felt very boring when she heard it, and she was talking privately with Xiangyun, and she didn't like Baoyu listening, so she simply didn't go.

And on this day, Li Shouzhong's family welcomed a distinguished guest, and Li Zhixing came back.

This Li Zhixing, named Du, styled Zhixing, was Li Shouzhong's uncle. He was originally a concubine, and his biological mother was a lowly concubine. His status was not high, but he was famous all over the country because he was the youngest Jinshi since the founding of the Qing Dynasty.He was just 16 years old when he was admitted to Jinshi, and he became famous for a while. To this day, anyone who can read and write will know Li Zhixing when he mentions it.

It's just that this person's luck was bad, his mother passed away just after high school Jinshi, and he returned to his hometown Ding You for three years.At the end of the three-year period, his father passed away, and Ding You had another three years.Two or three years later, Li Zhixing's official career was wasted.Although his reputation is still there, as time goes by, the Holy Majesty will inevitably forget it. When he thinks of this person, and because Li Zhixing has no money to move up and down, none of the officials in the court has managed it, so Without his knowledge, he was put on little shoes and slandered, and the official position that originally belonged to him also fell on someone else's head.

For a long time, Li Zhixing didn't know the tricks, and just lamented his bad luck.Later, after decades of touring the world's mountains and rivers, it was by chance that I heard someone mention it by chance before I knew the truth of the matter.

At that time, Li Zhixing, who was used to being free, had long since given up hope for an official career. He just played around blindly, and he didn't even get married. Now he is over forty, and the world doesn't know whether this person is dead or alive. I didn't want to show up at Li Shouzhong's home today.

When Li Zhixing reported his family name, the concierge thought he was a liar from somewhere, but when Li Shouzhong went out to return to his residence, he recognized Li Zhixing at the door, and then invited him into the inner hall.

"I haven't seen you for many years, why are you here?"

Li Zhixing said with a smile: "I've been wandering outside for half my life. Now that I'm old and my body is not as good as before, it's time for the fallen leaves to return to their roots. It's a pity that there is only one male Shaoyou left in our family. Listen Said that he is in your house now, didn't I come to join him?"

After hearing this, Li Shouzhong immediately called for Li Shaoyou.When Li Shaoyou saw Li Zhixing, he was taken aback for a moment, and then fell to his knees with a thud: "Grandpa Tang! Grandson please greet Grandpa!"

After all, Li Zhixing is quite old. After wandering all his life, seeing his beloved grandchildren, his eyes are already moist.

He came over to help Li Shaoyou up and said, "Good boy, stop kneeling and let grandpa see. Well, he has grown taller and stronger, he is a big boy!"

Li Shaoyou only felt that his nose was sore. Their family was thin. When he was young, he lived with this grandfather for a while.At that time, Grandpa Tang only came back to stay for a short time, but because he loved himself and taught him in every possible way, he stayed for a year and a half before starting again.

Li Shaoyou's family background did not allow him, so he did not invite famous teachers to teach him literature and martial arts. I have read all the books, so I have talents and wisdom higher than ordinary people.In Li Shaoyou's heart, his grandfather was the person he respected and admired the most in his life.
