Her anxious little face twisted into a ball.

Xu Qi'an found her annoying, and discussed: "I'll give you a chicken leg, and you'll lose."

"Okay." Xu Lingyin really stopped punching, with a happy face.

"What about your dignity?"

"Brother, what is dignity?"

"have a future."

He led Xiao Douding into the living room, and the banquet was held soon. The dinner was very rich, like a festival.

The maids put the best dishes in front of Xu Qi'an intentionally or unintentionally, and he couldn't help but look at his aunt, who was wearing a dress embroidered with dull patterns, with a delicate face, a pair of watery eyes and thick eyelashes, It contains the unique style of women, just like a plump crabapple flower.

As always, with a high and cold attitude, it seemed that what Xu Qi'an did today was just a trivial matter.

But without her instruction, the mothers-in-law would not dare to treat Xu Dalang so favorably.

Xu Lingyue ate with chopsticks and chopsticks, finally summoned up her courage, and said, "Brother, mother will make winter clothes for the family, and I will measure your figure later. I, I want to make it for my brother myself."

My brother, my mother, Xu Qi'an felt that half of her bones were brittle, and her younger sister changed into a rather gorgeous dress. The dress was embroidered with burning lotus flowers, and the goose-yellow cloak had intricate cloud patterns. She was only sixteen or seventeen years old. The gorgeous dress, set off by the delicate and pretty face, reveals a sense of incomprehension of the world.

"Okay, okay?" Xu Lingyue had a thin skin, and when she saw that he was silent, she blushed and lowered her head.

Changed to Baoyu, a scumbag, how should he answer at this time? Xu Qi'an hated that he didn't see many Dreams of the Red Chamber in his previous life, so he nodded: "Thank you."

Xu Lingyue smiled sweetly, complementing the aunt beside her.

Xu Qi'an withdrew his gaze and said, "Second Uncle, Erlang, go to the study after dinner, I have something to tell you."

study!

After Lu'e served three cups of hot tea, she resigned and left.

Xu Qi'an picked up the teacup and moistened his throat, once again lamenting the food without MSG, he always felt that something was missing.

"What do you think about what happened this afternoon?" Xu Qi'an cut to the chase, asking for opinions from his second uncle and cousin.

Isn't the matter over? Uncle Xu's face was a little dazed.

Xu Nian frowned: "You want to say that Mr. Zhou might take revenge?"

The son of the dignified servant of the household department, if he stumbles at the hands of a small subordinate, he will definitely not let it go.

Second Uncle Xu waved his hand: "No, no, it's fine if it's normal, but today there are great Confucian scholars from Yunlu Academy and Si Tianjian's white clothes coming forward, I guess that Zhou will not dare to stir up trouble."

That's right, it makes sense.

It is not uncommon to see common people in the yamen, but when it comes to officialdom or powerful forces, they will become quite cautious.

Half of it is from childhood, no matter how stingy Ya Nei is, he also knows the depth of the capital.The other half comes from parental warnings.

Xu Nian shook his head: "Father, since elder brother said that, there must be a reason."

He looked at Xu Qi'an.

Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice: "I just got a piece of news from Sitianjian today. The man behind the tax and bank case is Zhou Shilang."

Chapter 35 Study Room Discussion

The man behind the tax and bank case was Xu Pingzhi, Zhou's servant, who slapped the coffee table to pieces, stood up angrily, his eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to scold his mother, but there seemed to be something stuck in his throat.

Xu Nian glanced at his impotent and furious father, his handsome face was extremely serious, "The news is reliable?"

Xu Qi'an nodded: "One of the chief officials in charge of the tax and bank case, Chu Caiwei from the Sitianjian told me."

He repeated Chu Caiwei's words.

Xu Nian raised his teacup, put it down again, and said in a deep thought, "It seems that what happened today was not accidental, but Zhou immediately wanted revenge."

Yes, as expected of a scholar who can pass the exam, his brain is very good.

Xu Qi'an was a little happy, knowing that this conversation would not be in vain.

If it was just Second Uncle Xu, he would not have brought up this secret conversation, it would be meaningless.

Because the second uncle was in a hurry, he would only say: I am a brother, so I will kill someone with me.

There is no way, after all, he is a vulgar martial artist, he is good at cutting people, but he is blind when he is scheming, and his professional fields are different.

Xu Qi'an asked the school: "What does Erlang think?"

Xu Nian glanced at his cousin and frowned, as if he was dissatisfied with his tone of the school exam, and said in a bad mood:

"What should I do? Of course, it is better to strike first, and then to suffer disaster."

Yes, Xu Qi'an was taken aback, it was hard to imagine that Xu New Year would say such decisive words.

Hearing this, Second Uncle Xu, who considered himself the head of the family and the backbone of the family, felt that he could no longer remain silent, and reprimanded his son:

"Put away your ignorant and arrogant thoughts, don't say that you are a mere candidate, even if you win the first prize, you still can't afford to offend the servant of the household department."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was ruthlessly rejected by his nephew: "I think Erlang's idea is right."

Xu Qi'an went on to say: "We didn't offend Zhou Li, but Zhou Xianping, the Minister of the Household Department. Maybe Zhou Li didn't dare to retaliate, but what about the Minister of the Household Department?"

"We not only spoiled his good deeds, but also injured his son-in-law. As long as he is a person with a sense of fireworks, it is absolutely unreasonable to bear it. Besides, in the eyes of Zhou Shilang, the Xu family is no different from an ant. ? He has no reason to let us go."

Xu Pingzhi refused to accept: "No, we can't beat Zhou Shilang. Ning Yan, you met Si Tianjian's white clothes, and you are a student of Yunlu Academy in New Year. With these two relationships, as long as we keep our own, no one will dare to provoke you."

Is it really?

Xu Qi'an reminded: "Second Uncle, you may not know that Si Tianjian's white robes do not interfere with court affairs."

Xu Cijiu went on to say: "Didn't I also be a student of Yunlu Academy during the tax and bank case? Today, the eldest brother can come back because Zhou Li is unreasonable and his methods are too low-level, but if Zhou Shilang takes action, there will be another tax and bank case." , Reasonably and legally let the whole family of the Xu family be executed, could it be possible that Sitianjian and Yunlu Academy can still rob the prison for us? For us to fight against the law?"

Xu Pingzhi, who felt that the majesty of the head of the family had been impacted, frowned, "But, what should we do, deal with the Minister of the Household Department, and be dignified and upright?"

I don't know, I'm just a simple time traveler Xu Qi'an cast his eyes on the handsome little brother:

"What does Jiro think?"

Xu Xinian was silent. After a long time, when Xu Pingzhi was getting impatient, he said slowly, "I've been thinking about one thing just now."

"The tax money was robbed, and the emperor was furious. It is obvious that he attaches great importance to the money. The prisoner should be severely punished."

"Didn't those two punks commit suicide in fear of crime?" Xu Pingzhi said.
