Aunt Xue of the Red Chamber is not easy to mess with

Wang Wan is not a good person, which she admits, but if she is said to be a bad person, she has been wronged again. This unprecedented heavy snowfall and the reduction in food production have caused many people to lose everything in the cold and hungry environment. Life and natural disasters are often cruel. She wants to do something, but now she feels powerless.

She didn't know how much relief food the imperial court had, but when she saw the porridge in the porridge shed that could be seen in a mirror, she felt sad again. Although the food was in short supply, it probably wouldn't reach this level.

Xue Cheng looked at his wife who was running outside all day, couldn't help frowning, and said, "You don't have to go see it." He naturally knew what she was doing every day, so he said, "How much is the relief food?" In the hands of the victims? Replace the good grains with moldy old grains and distribute them to the victims. This is done in all places." He was very calm, looking quite calm, as if this incident It's nothing more than normal.

Wang Wan was silent for a moment, her voice was a little hoarse, and she said after a long while: "I went to taste the porridge..." Wang Wan lowered her eyes, sighed softly, and said, "I can't eat it at all." At least she almost When you spit it out, there is always a pickled smell.

Xue Cheng patted Wang Wan's back, not knowing what to say, and said after a while, "If you feel uncomfortable, just go to the temple and donate some sesame oil money, and the monks will donate porridge." Looking at him, he sighed, and said: "This Jinling City has a governor, a governor, and even rich and powerful families, but it is not our Xue family's turn to do this kind of good deeds." Xue Cheng saw whether Wang Wan had As he spoke, he could only continue to say: "For disaster relief and porridge, it is always better for the government to come forward. If we set up a porridge shed privately, it is buying people's hearts and plotting wrongdoing. Perhaps it is a serious crime of destroying the family."

Wang Wan was silent for a moment, then suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said: "Although I can't do such a thing, Yunhui can do it!" I didn't think of this before, and this time I said that the government should take the lead in this matter. Thinking of Yun Hui, Mr. Tang is doing this now, and there will be no way to buy people's hearts. "Give the food to Yun Hui, and I don't have to worry about anyone taking the food!"

"Why do such a thankless thing? No one knows." Xue Cheng curled his lips and sighed: "No one thinks of you."

Wang Wan snorted, and said again: "What do you know?" She rolled her eyes and said, "I'm an ordinary person, since I did such a good deed, I naturally want someone to remember my good deeds." She Glancing at Xue Cheng, she said again: "Although the common people don't know that I donated the grain, Master Tang knows it." As she said that, Wang Wan gave Xue Cheng a meaningful look, and said again: "Come on, I really don't know. I don’t feel guilty for helping those common people. Secondly, I will help Mr. Tang get through this difficult time. He is also willing to come here. The third is to let our Xue family have a good impression in front of Mr. Tang. , at least let him know that our Xue family is a kind family, and we have a good relationship with Mr. Tang, and he will think about our Xue family first if anything happens in the future."

Xue Cheng had obviously thought about this, seeing her triumphant look, he just smiled and said: "If there is anything, you just do it." He is her husband, as long as he is within the rules, he still doesn't mind helping with her.

The next day, Wang Wan went straight to the magistrate's yamen, Yun Hui greeted her with a smile, and said, "Why do you have time to come to my place today? I heard that you were busy with business in the shop a few days ago." But never Not much free yet.

Wang Wan said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss my sister." Although she hasn't known Yun Hui for long, she has always taken an interest in her, so she gets along very comfortably, as if she has known her for a long time.

The two of them talked a little more, and Wang Wan said the future briefly. Yun Hui seemed very surprised, but she said in a moment: "My sister is righteous! You don't know, there is not much relief food from the imperial court in the master's hands." , we also have more than enough heart but not enough energy, I am not very clear about the affairs in the officialdom, but I am afraid that the water in it is also deep." Yunhui sighed and said: "This matter is usually Master Li doesn't tell me much, but I just can't bear to see him busy outside every day."

Wang Wan smiled and said: "Master Tang is a good official, and it's only a matter of time before he rises to the top." The magistrate Tang came from a family, and he was promoted through a serious imperial examination. It is not easy to be an official in Jinling directly.

After Wang Wan came out of the Tang Mansion, she took a deep breath, she had tried her best, at least she had no regrets.

After sending all the food and many worn-out clothes and satins to the Tang Mansion, Wang Wan stopped paying attention to the victims' affairs, Pan'er should also be enlightened, and Wang Wan did not intend to send Pan'er home All the children in the clan study at home, there are good and bad among them, he is not older than Brother Yu, and now he can't distinguish right from wrong, good from bad, so he can't learn badly.

Wang Wan intends to hire a husband to teach him alone, and then send him to the academy to study when he is a little older in the future. The Xue family is also eligible for the imperial examination because of their status as an imperial merchant. Therefore, Wang Wan also plans to let Pan'er try In the last trial, if she really didn't have this talent, she wouldn't force anything.

"Are you going to hire Mr. Pan'er?" Xue Cheng looked at her suspiciously, then at the tiger-headed Xue Pan, and asked hesitantly, "He's still young... isn't he in a hurry?"

"It's not too young, it's four years old now, it's time to be enlightened." Wang Wan frowned, looked at the crazy Xue Pan outside the hospital, and said: "It's time to calm down, otherwise it will be difficult to discipline in the future. .”

"Brother is fine." Xue Baochai is now two years old, like a little tail, likes to play wildly behind Xue Pan, leaning on Wang Wan's leg at this time, pouted dissatisfied.

Seeing her cute appearance, Xue Cheng said with a smile: "What do you know to say that brother is very good?" He hugged the little guy up and said, "Our sister Bao is getting heavy."

"Father, I eat well!" Baochai raised her hand and said emphatically, "Mother said that if I eat well, I will grow taller, so that I can play with my brother."

Wang Wan smiled and teased Baochai for a while, then saw Qiaozhu hurried in and said, "Ma'am, there are people from Beijing!"

Wang Wan was stunned for a moment, and said: "Please come in quickly, do you have anything to say?" As she spoke, she asked the girls to carry the two young ones down, and within a short while, two daughters-in-law hurried in.

"But what happened in Beijing?" Wang Wan saw that something was wrong with them, so she asked here.

The two daughters-in-law didn't bother, and after greeting Wang Wan, they cried: "Auntie, the master asked the wife to come to Beijing immediately." Our old lady has not been feeling well since the first lunar month, and she has been talking about my aunt, so the master asked my aunt to pack up and go to Beijing to have a look at the old lady!"

Wang Wan felt a little weird in her heart, a sour feeling permeated her heart, which made her a little dazed, Xue Cheng pulled her sleeves before she came back to her senses, her nose was sore, tears fell down He got down and cried, "What should I do? Why didn't I send someone to notify me before!"

"Don't be too anxious, you have my uncle here, so you can relax." Xue Cheng said softly, and then said to the two women: "Go and rest first, I will pack up and go to Beijing." Mother-in-law My lord is seriously ill, so I have to go there anyway.

The Xue family also had a house in the middle of the capital, so there was nothing to clean up. Let people go to the capital to clean up the house first, and Xue Cheng took Wang Wan into the carriage and drove to the middle of the capital. Because of Xue Cheng's body However, there is a doctor accompanying her. Wang Wan just sits silently in the carriage every day. The original owner has not been as well-behaved as her sister since she was a child. From Wang Wan's point of view, her mother really loved her, but Xue Wang couldn't see clearly, and she was taken advantage of for nothing.

Wang Wan sighed slightly and rubbed her eye sockets. This was her first time traveling far away, and the bumpy road conditions made her quite uncomfortable, so she obediently nestled in the carriage.

"How long will it take to get to Beijing?" Wang Wan lifted the curtain irritably, her tone was a bit aggressive, Xue Cheng didn't bother with her, glanced at her, and flipped through the book again, or Qiao Zhu comforted her, saying: " Ma'am, don't worry, you will be able to enter Beijing around tomorrow evening."

Wang Wan nodded, and said again: "Are Pan'er and Sister Bao still well-behaved?" She frowned, originally she didn't plan to take the two little guys with her, but if they all left and other people looked after them, Wang Wan was also not at ease, so she brought the two of them out. Fortunately, the two little guys ran wild in the garden on weekdays, and their bones were still strong, which made Wang Wan feel relieved a lot.

"Don't worry, ma'am." Qiaocui twitched the corners of her lips, and said with a smile, "there are nuns taking care of her, and there is no time to stop in the carriage." She looked at Xue Cheng, and Wang Wan understood that every time During the day, Xue Cheng would take time out to play with the little guy for a while, trying to act like a good father.

He didn't have the slightest concept of having grandchildren but not children, and he had a lot of fun playing with children. Wang Wan pursed her lips, which was a bit beyond her expectation.

I was talking here, but I didn't want the carriage to brake suddenly. Wang Wan couldn't sit still. She rushed forward and hit her head with pain. Xue Cheng just tilted her head and touched her nose. With a flushed face, she read the book again quite honestly, Wang Wan gritted her teeth angrily, but she was not an unreasonable person, she didn't lose her temper at him, but she just opened the curtain with a swipe, and said angrily: " How do you drive!"

The coachman said aggrievedly: "Ma'am, there is someone lying on the road." He pointed to a place not far ahead with his whip.

Wang Wan was stunned for a moment, squinted her eyes, looked at the man who was rushing forward in the middle of the road, and subconsciously said: "Don't meddle in other people's business, move him to the side!" She put down the curtain and sat back in the carriage Going up, frowning, with bitter hatred on his face, he curled his lips in frustration after a while, and jumped out of the carriage without anyone's support, walked up to the man, and said, "Look at him, he's still alive." Is it?"

The coachman carefully turned the man over, poked under the tip of his nose, and said: "Madam, you are still alive." While speaking, a folding fan fell from his arms, Wang Wan frowned, wondering secretly, In this cold weather, I still carry a folding fan in my arms, which is really inexplicable. The folding fan is very exquisitely made, and it is quite heavy. Wang Wan picked it up and looked at it for a while. Wang Wan looked at the picture carefully for a while, and felt that the painting method was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while, so she had to let the driver put the fan into the man's arms again.

Wang Wan frowned a little irritably, this is really bloody!Is it possible to have a hero to save the beauty?This man looked quite handsome, but he was seriously injured, and he didn't know if he could survive. Wang Wan shook her head irritably, and said, "Please bring Dr. Li over here."

Xue Cheng walked over slowly at this moment, and said, "Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

"I don't know when the master has such kindness." Wang Wan sneered, ignored him, and said: "Qiaozhu, take the two little ones to my carriage." She said commanding The man carried the man into the carriage and said, "Leave a woman to take care of him." After the distribution was finished, he said, "Master, is there anything else that needs to be added?"

"You did a good job." Xue Cheng squinted his eyes, and said, "You can make decisions about these things." He doesn't care about everything now, he reads books, walks and sees his children every day, and is extraordinarily leisurely.

Wang Wan raised her eyebrows and got into the carriage first. Pan'er blinked and asked suspiciously, "Mother? Who is that? What's wrong with him?"

Wang Wan pinched the little guy's cheeks. Although Sister Bao was smart, she didn't quite understand. When she saw Wang Wan, she threw herself into Wang Wan's arms and said, "Mother hug!"

"Come on, Daddy is in your arms." Xue Cheng came up, packed up the books, clapped his hands, and said, "Go to Daddy's place."

Wang Wan kissed Baochai's forehead and said, "Go." She patted her little buttocks as she spoke, and after a moment of silence, she said, "That man doesn't look simple." Judging by his clothes, it seemed that he was What about the children of the family.

"You've already lifted the person up, so you're only considering this issue now, don't you think it's too late?" Xue Cheng shook his head, and after whining with Baochai for a while, he took the time to say.

At least Wang Wan didn't understand what Sister Bao said. If she spoke slowly, she could still understand, but if she spoke quickly, she always had to react for a while to understand, but Xue Cheng didn't seem to have this trouble at all. Very speculative.

Wang Wan rolled her eyes, despising him a little, she just said yes, echoed yes yes yes, it is estimated that 50.00% of them didn't understand.

After returning to Beijing, there was already someone in charge, and the Wang family also came. Wang Wan asked Qinyue and others to go home first, and she went to the Wang family with Xue Cheng.

Wang Ziteng was in the mansion and was not on duty, he looked a little haggard, when he saw Wang Wan, he just said wearily: "Go and see mother." His eyes were a little red.

Wang Ziteng married a girl from the Shi family, and because they are family friends, he is also familiar with Shi. Shi's eyes were a little red, and when he saw Wang Wan, he just nodded and said, "The old lady has been talking about you all day long. Come in and have a look."

Wang Wan felt that her tears couldn't control her anymore. She didn't know whether it was because she suddenly became sensational, or it was the emotion that Wang Xue had left in her body before. She just felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't control her tears no matter what.

"Mother?" Wang Wan walked into the inner room, there was only a woman who waited by her side, and there was no one else. The woman Wang Wan knew. She didn't leave even after getting married, she had some face and said, "Nurse, what did the imperial doctor say?"

"The second girl is finally back." Madam Cheng stood up excitedly, took Wang Wan's hand, and said, "The old lady has been waiting for a long time." Then she pulled Wang Wan to the old man's bed, and cried: " Old lady, do you see who is coming?"

Wang Wan blinked her eyes and looked at the weak woman lying on the bed. She looked much older than the woman in her impression. Her mother always took care of her hair. She was a delicate person who never forgot to tidy up her hair. Son, she has never seen her so old, Wang Wan's eyes were sour, tears fell quietly, and she said tremblingly: "Mother..."

"This winter is extremely cold. The old lady was in high spirits and was still admiring plums in the garden. She caught a cold at night." Shi wiped away his tears and said guiltily, "It's all my fault. Looking at the old lady, it's not like that."

Wang Wan held the old man's hand, and listening to Shi's rambling, she felt very uncomfortable. Wang Ziteng even asked for leave early to take care of the sick at home.

I don't know how long it took before the old lady slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were confused for a moment, and after a long while, she focused on her, her fingers tremblingly wanted to touch Wang Wan's cheek, Wang Wan was stunned for a moment, She leaned forward again so that her hand could touch her cheek. The old lady's voice was dry, and Wang Wan hurriedly said, "Bring me a glass of water!"

Wang Wan touched the teardrops, brought the water to the old lady's mouth, and said, "Mother, drink some water first."

The old lady nodded with a little effort, "Wan Wan..." She took Wang Wan's hand, exerted a little force, and said after a long while, "I'm most worried about you~~~" She burst into tears as she spoke. It flowed out, and said: "You resent us for favoring your sister, but in that kind of Duke Houmen's mansion, how can we relax with your temper!" Although she was a little struggling to speak, she was exceptionally clear and tight Clutching Wang Wan's hand, he said again: "Master, he has a gentle temper. If you get along well with him, you don't have to make trouble like this." He coughed violently as if out of breath.

Wang Wan quickly patted her on the back, and said anxiously: "Mother, I can save it, you can lie down and rest." After saying that, she waited for the old lady to lie down.

Shi quickly brought the imperial doctor to have a look, and prescribed some medicine before leaving.

Wang Wan wiped away her tears and looked at the old lady who had fallen asleep again, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart. Madam Cheng sat on the footrest, looked at Wang Wan and sighed, "Second Miss, what the old lady is thinking It's still you I miss."

Wang Wan cried and twitched, she raised her red eyes, and nodded her head sobbing, only to hear Mammy Cheng say again: "The second girl has been strong since she was a child, and she has a stubborn temper. The old lady can't bear you in high school." The big family is restrained and abides by the rules, the Xue family and our family are also family friends, and the uncle sincerely proposed to marry him, so the old lady accepted the marriage with the Xue family." The most important thing is that the second girl is stubborn and unfeeling. Brain, Wang Wan thought while crying.

"My aunt is here, why don't you come in?" Shi Shi asked as soon as he lifted the curtain.

Wang Wan was stunned for a moment, then heard a gentle voice, said: "Just arrived, I saw my sister-in-law coming out." Saying that, a woman opened the curtain and walked in.

Seeing the woman walking in, Wang Wan didn't care to continue crying, she stood up and called her sister.

Mrs. Wang was accompanied by four maids, wearing tunic embroidered double-breasted trousers, and a set of ruby ​​headbands on her head, which was very luxurious. She glanced at Wang Wan and said, "Have you seen your mother?" She said with a handkerchief The son wiped the corners of his eyes, but there were no tears, but his voice was a little tearful, and said: "Mother's heart towards my sister has never changed. Although my mother has been in Beijing these years, she has never forgotten that my sister is still in Jinling." As he spoke, he touched his tears again, and said, "Earlier, I also wanted you to come to Beijing to visit my mother by taking advantage of Baoyu's full moon."

"My sister's words are really untrue." Wang Wan raised her eyebrows, looked at Wang and said, "My son Zhou Rui's family came to Xue's house before, but he didn't mention anything about his mother." Go back to the old lady and wait on her.

With the imperial physician here, Wang Wan found good medicinal materials to nourish her. The old lady's life was finally hanging, so Wang Wan was slightly relieved and returned to Xue's house.

"Is mother-in-law feeling better?" Xue Cheng looked at Wang Wan's face, and then asked worriedly: "If there are any medicinal materials that I need, I'll find some more."

"It's been slowed down for a while." Wang Wan breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed the center of her brows, and said, "I have to take care of it slowly."

Xue Cheng nodded, he understood the torture of this disease better than anyone else, he was almost killed with a piece of poisonous pastry by the woman he tried his best to protect, in Xue Cheng's view, it was already an extremely shameful thing , and now dragging such a weak body to linger on, but even so, he still doesn't want to die, he just wants to live as hard as he can, and live well.

The man picked up by Wang Wan was already able to stand up and take two steps. Xue Cheng took a fancy to him, and after asking about the old lady's health, he said, "Aren't you still thinking of finding a husband for Brother Pan?" Is it?" The interest was quite high, "I see that Ziyan's knowledge is quite good, if he can be Pan'er's husband, it is also Pan'er's good fortune."

Wang Wan frowned, looked at Xue Cheng, and said rather puzzled: "What kind of identity is he, the master has not figured out yet, and he wants to hire Pan'er as a teacher? This is too careless." She turned over Rolling his eyes, he said again: "At that time, his body was full of scars from swords, how can this be a joke?! Let's find out his background first."

Xue Cheng shook his head and sighed: "That's not the case." He waved his hands and said, "I see that his behavior and behavior are all in the style of everyone, and he must have been well-bred."

"Bad people don't write two words on their faces." Wang Wan said disapprovingly, "In short, if you don't care about Pan'er's matter, I will find a way. I don't want to make someone who doesn't understand Come and be Pan'er's teacher." What should I do if the teaching fails?She still counts on this son for the rest of her life.

Xue Cheng frowned, although he was a little displeased, he didn't say much, and said after a while, "Just listen to me, if Pan'er can be taught by Ziyan, you don't have to worry about him in the future."

Seeing that he was firm in what he said, Wang Wan was a little suspicious, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Is this true?" She lowered her eyes and said, "Do you know his last name? Is it a word? Tell me Let me listen, so I can inquire about it?"

"Don't say such things." Xue Cheng frowned and said hastily: "He has good manners. If you act like this, I'm afraid you will annoy him." He shook his head and said: "More What's more, he's just staying at home, if someone finds out, people will say that our Xue family doesn't understand the rules."

Wang Wan frowned so much that a fly could be crushed to death, and said, "Just taking in a person like this is to find out about his temperament, isn't it? Isn't this a normal thing?" For those who are enemies, what should they do if they get into trouble in the future?

"It doesn't have to be like this. One can get a glimpse of one's temperament through one's daily words and deeds. Since you saved him and he doesn't bring up the past, you don't have to rush to inquire about it. You won't be left behind." Xue Chengyao He shook his head, and then said: "I'm afraid he won't stay in our Xue family for a long time, and you don't have to trouble yourself like this."

Wang Wan raised her eyebrows noncommittally, only to hear Xue Cheng say again: "You were not at home all the time, so that's all." He looked at Wang Wan and said, "Now that you're back, let him give you a walk outside the screen. The ceremony should be a repayment for the life-saving grace at the beginning."

Wang Wan twitched the corners of her mouth, and said dryly: "This kind of life-saving grace is really cheap." It's enough to make a bow, who can't do it.

Xue Cheng only acted as if he didn't hear it, and after explaining for a while, he said: "You should take a good rest, I was also very tired earlier." Then he stepped forward and left.

After Xue Cheng left, Wang Wan sat on the soft couch with her chin propped up, thinking of the man's embarrassed look when she picked him up, and thought deeply.

At noon, Cui Ziyan, accompanied by Xue Cheng, bowed to Wang Wan and said, "Thank you Madam for saving my life. Grace is in my heart, I can't think of it..."

"Wait." Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Wang Wan.

Xue Cheng was a little embarrassed, he quickly waved his hand comfortingly and said, "Don't mind Ziyan." After speaking, he planned to walk into the screen.

"It's okay, Brother Xue, we're still waiting for Madam to finish speaking." Cui Ziyan was not annoyed, with a smile on his face.

Wang Wan could vaguely see it, and disdained the screen, but he was a foreigner after all, so she went to see the shopkeeper in the shop, the manager in the village, that's all, she couldn't chat and laugh happily with a strange man in front of Xue Cheng Well, Wang Wan rolled her eyes, raised her voice and said, "It's still the same sentence, I'm an ordinary person, anyone can say such beautiful words, after all, it doesn't hurt or itch, and there is no loss."

Xue Cheng blushed with shame, and couldn't help but said, "Don't say such things again." He was a little embarrassed.

Cui Ziyan curled the corner of his mouth and said, "Ma'am is right."

Wang Wan shook her head, but thought that he couldn't see it, so she said: "I can't afford to be a wife, I'm just a businessman's wife." All wives are of high rank, so I ignored him Silently, he said again: "I see that Mr. is a scholar, does he have a reputation?"

"No." Cui Ziyan replied.

Wang Wan looked at him carefully for a while, and saw that his behavior was the style of everyone's children. She only felt that this person's background was not simple, and thinking of Xue Cheng's high praise for him, she gradually made up her mind. , Sui said: "This debt of favor has always been difficult to repay."

Cui Ziyan pursed his lips, but at this moment he couldn't help but raised his head, only to hear the woman say again: "It's only natural to have money to pay and debt to pay, and this debt of favor is naturally a kind of debt, sir. right?"

"Naturally." Cui Ziyan nodded.

"That's good." Wang Wan was happy, and said directly: "Sir, I am happy, I heard that Zhaoming Academy is quite famous in Beijing, and my son Xue Pan is four years old, and he is about to enter school. If you have a recommendation letter from Zhaoming Academy One copy, this so-called life-saving grace, let it go." Wang Wan squinted her eyes, looking vaguely through the screen, and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't have this recommendation letter, sir, you only need to be a teacher in Xue's family for three years , with the respect of the teacher, after three years, there will be no so-called life-saving grace." Wang Wan paused, and then said: "Sir, do you think this is good?"

"It's just nonsense!" Before Cui Ziyan could speak, Xue Cheng was trembling with anger. How dare he make such a request?How could she be sure that Cui Ziyan would agree?

The author has something to say: we need to speed up the steps, and the Xue family can get involved with everyone in the Jia family after they enter Beijing, otherwise they will not be able to develop if they stay in Jinling...

The house rented by the company has finally been found, and they are going to a small village.What a joy!
