[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

Xue Pan was imprisoned in the Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen, and the Xue family did not get a letter about this immediately.It wasn't until two or three days later that Aunt Xue found out that Xue Pan was not at home, so she panicked.When people inquired, they only said that no one had seen the uncle in the shop, and that he had never been seen in the old house.This frightened Aunt Xue so much that she begged Mrs. Wang to come over.

"Sister, tell me, I'm just a son like Pan'er, if he has something wrong, what do you want me to say!" Aunt Xue kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief as she spoke.It's just that when I think of Xue Pan's unknown where he is now, I feel guilty for a while, and tears can't stop falling.

Mrs. Wang also frowned when she heard this, she has a lot of troubles that have not been resolved yet, how can she spare her time to help Xue's family.It can be seen that Aunt Xue was crying like this, and she couldn't bear it in her heart, so she comforted: "Pan'er has been deaf since he was a child, maybe he went outside to play with others, don't worry, let others After inquiring, let's add up again."

Aunt Xue cried even more when she heard this. "My sister thought I didn't ask! I just told my sister. We have visited all the shops in the capital, and no one said that I have seen Pan'er. The boy who went out with Pan'er that day They're all gone too, it's not like I'm going to die in a hurry!"

Just as I was talking, I heard Jin Chuan'er laughing outside: "Second Master Bao is coming to say hello to his wife sooner or later. Come on in quickly." As he spoke, he pushed Baoyu's voice as if smiling.

Baoyu smiled and came in to greet Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue, and was pulled by Mrs. Wang to sit beside her, then turned her head to look at Aunt Xue's red and swollen eyes, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with Auntie? Eyes are red, but who is mad at you?"

Aunt Xue just covered her eyes with a handkerchief and sobbed a few times. Baoyu was surprised, when she heard Mrs. Wang take his hand and said warmly: "You don't know, your big brother Xue went out the day before yesterday, and he didn't sleep anymore. Home. Your aunt was in such a hurry that she sent people to inquire everywhere, but there was no news. Although you and your big brother Xue are not often seen, there should be a time to see each other. Think about it, have you seen your big brother Xue recently? Never?"

When Aunt Xue heard this, before Baoyu could answer, she hurriedly asked: "My son, you must be considerate of my heart. Your big brother is the most insensitive thing, but it's okay if someone restrains you when you are at home." , If he went out, at what moment did I not worry about him. You and your elder brother have always been the closest. If he has something to say to you in private, or tell you that he is going to Which one is crazy, you must not hide it from me."

Baoyu then said, "I'll keep it from my aunt." After thinking about it, he frowned slightly, and said, "I met brother Xue the other day."

Aunt Xue was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly asked when and where it was.Baoyu thought for a while, and then said: "It seems to be in the school. I was going to school with Qin Zhong that day, ah, the younger brother of Brother Rong's daughter-in-law in Dongfu, Xiao Qin Xianggong. I ran into Big Brother Xue Talking with a few elementary school students in the school, at that time, we went over to say hello."

Aunt Xue asked again: "What happened later? Why didn't you come back that day?"

Baoyu touched his head and smiled foolishly. "I don't know about this. Auntie, don't worry. Maybe Brother Xue went out of the city for a while, so I can't say anything." Then, he stayed on the bed and held Aunt Xue's hand, and comforted him: "Auntie, don't be too worried. I'm worried, Big Brother Xue has always been very measured in doing things. Even if he forgot to explain for a while, it's just that he is used to being generous. It's just that Auntie is like this. If Big Brother Xue sees Auntie's worried look when he comes back, he must Blame myself."

These words made Aunt Xue's heart very warm, so she hugged Baoyu in her arms, cried out "beloved", then wiped her tears and smiled: "Sister usually only talks about how naughty Baoyu is." , but today I don’t believe my sister after hearing Baoyu’s words. Look at his sensible appearance, who is naughty in what he said? It’s all my sister’s humble words, so I still believe it.”

For a while, most of the worries about Xue Pan were put away in her heart. Seeing her in such a state, Mrs. Wang laughed and said, "Since Baoyu is here, you don't have to worry about it." She also said, "Although I am a housewife People, but I can help you a little bit. All you need is Zhou Rui to walk around and see if Pan'er is out of town."

Aunt Xue heard this, and thanked her with a smile.Mrs. Wang then asked Jin Chuan'er to call Zhou Rui's family over, explained the matter, and then told her not to say anything.That Zhou Rui's family was originally Mrs. Wang's companion. When he was in Wang's family, he was also a person who was used to doing things under Mrs. Wang's hands.Looking at the way Mrs. Wang explained the matter, she knew that Mrs. Wang was not very concerned about this matter.So he agreed to the matter, but when he went back, he said to Zhou Rui that he was not in a hurry.

This is a later story, so I don't need to list it for now.

It's just that Aunt Xue heard that Mrs. Wang had talked to Zhou Rui's family in this way, and a stone fell from her heart.He only smiled at Mrs. Wang: "I'm here to thank my sister, and when Pan'er comes back, let him personally prepare a generous gift to thank you."

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "They are all relatives of our own family, who is patient with this. After saying this, we don't have to make us lose our lives." Then she smiled at Aunt Xue: "I am a child today. Why didn't you see Bao girl at the old lady's place?"

Aunt Xue sighed, and said, "Sister, I don't know. That little girl caught cold a few days ago. She was heavy and light at times. I advised her to take a rest, but she refused. She also said that my aunt is now When she was busy, it was fine if she couldn't help, and she couldn't make any more trouble. Because she had to hold herself together for two or three days, her face was flushed when she came together today, so she asked the doctor to come and see, and she just said it was false The heat is rising, so you should take a good rest."

He said again: "No, Pan'er didn't come back for two or three days. If it wasn't because of Bao girl's poor health, she would have come with me long ago."

Mrs. Wang paused for a moment with her fingers pinching the beads, then smiled lightly and said, "She's a little girl from every family, so please trouble her and think about everything for me. It's because I didn't realize it. What's going on now? If the medicinal materials If it’s not enough, just come to me to get it, our family has it.”

Aunt Xue thanked her again, and because she missed Xue Pan and Baochai, she didn't want to sit down any longer. She only said a few more words before getting up and going back.Seeing Aunt Xue get up, Baoyu hurriedly got up and said, "Sister Bao is sick, so I should go and see. I'm fine now, ma'am, I'll go with my aunt."

Aunt Xue touched Baoyu's cheek with a smile, and said with a smile: "My son, you still have a heart. It's just that your elder sister Bao has a fever. You go to fear that you will be sick."

Before he finished speaking, Baoyu interrupted in a hurry and said, "how can such a thing happen? I'm in good health." Then he took Aunt Xue's hand to go out.

Mrs. Wang smiled, called Baoyu softly, and said with a smile: "Since I went to see your sister Bao, you can speak carefully. Your sister Bao is sick now, but I can't stand your tossing. If someone The naughty one asked your aunt to come and tell me, and I will never forgive you."

Baoyu responded happily and hurriedly followed Aunt Xue.Mrs. Wang was left behind to glance at Aunt Xue's leaving back, and gave a cold snort softly.It was a coincidence that two things happened so sooner or later.

Baoyu followed Aunt Xue through a hand-painted veranda and around the rockery, and saw the gate of Yueyue Cave. After entering, he walked straight forward and walked a small path, and he could see the three characters "Lixiangyuan" hanging on the gate of the courtyard. .I only sighed softly at the moment, since Sister Lin and the others moved out, Sister Bao is now living in this Lixiangyuan again.

Baoyu was in a trance, and had been dragged into the house by Aunt Xue.Seeing the coolness from the ice basin in the corner of the room for a while, Baoyu smiled and took the handkerchief from the servant girl and wiped the sweat from her forehead.When I was handing the handkerchief to the maid, I saw that the maid was born with pink make-up and jade, and she was very cute, and a rouge mole the size of a grain of rice between her eyebrows added a touch of coquettishness.

Baoyu laughed and said, "You are Sister Bao's maid, why haven't I seen you before?"

The maid pursed her lips into a smile and lowered her head shyly.Baoyu wanted to ask again, but when he heard a noise from the inner room, he looked up and saw Yinger coming out.Seeing Baoyu and the maid standing together, he also smiled and said, "I just said who is talking outside. It turns out that the second master Bao is here." Then he said to the maid, "Why is Xiangling still standing here? Well, hurry up and collect your things, so that others can have a rest."

Baoyu saw that the maid went out after saying yes, so she wrote down the word "Xiangling" in her heart, thinking that the name was very elegant.Just as she was thinking about it, Ying'er chuckled again, and only said to him, "Second Master Bao, are you here to see our girl? Why don't you go in?" As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pushed Baoyu into the inner room.

Baoyu's face was slightly red, and seeing that Ying'er didn't follow in, she walked to the screen by herself.Only four or five steps away, Baochai was seen wearing a half-new goose-yellow small coat and a white middle coat, leaning against the head of the bed with a flushed face.Seeing him coming, he opened a pair of almond eyes and looked over softly.

Baoyu's mind was shaken, and Baochai laughed softly: "Brother Bao, it's hard for you to come to see me. It's just that I'm a little rude now." Then, she coughed softly, which seemed a little weak.

Baoyu has only seen Baochai with a beautiful face and a tactful manner, but has he ever seen such a sick and weak Xizi like Baochai?Immediately, she was a little stunned, and she didn't stop walking. She just sat down on the edge of the bed and looked straight at Baochai's flushed cheeks.Seeing that the blush on Baochai's face is getting deeper and deeper, she is even more fascinated.

Baochai's face burned when she saw Baoyu's eyes, so she cleared her throat and said, "Brother Bao, why are you looking at me like this?" Then she glanced sideways at Baoyu and said, "If you do this again, I'll be annoyed."

When Baoyu was caught by her, she immediately felt a little bit Tao Taoran.But listening to Baochai's words that seemed to be smiling but not angry, she came back to her senses and just smiled and said, "Sister Bao doesn't look at me, so how do you know I look at you?" After a little bit, he couldn't help but feel distressed: "How is Sister Bao's health? Have you taken any medicine?"

Baochai smiled lightly and said, "How can I answer you when you ask so many questions?" Then he laughed and said, "I just invited the doctor to come to see you in the morning, and I just said that I suffered from the cold a few days ago and accumulated in my body." In the body, the virtual fire is rising now, and it will be fine after a few days when it flares up."

He smiled again and said, "I heard that brother Bao has been studying in school these days, which is a good thing."

Baoyu didn't have much interest in going to school, and now he's just hanging out in that school, but because Qin Zhong is by his side, and there are other children with him, he doesn't feel uncomfortable talking and having fun anymore.But listening to Baochai's words, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she had to laugh and said, "Where is this saying, I just took a look."

Baochai just smiled and said: "Why do you say that? You know, there is a lot of knowledge in the economic career. Brother Bao, you are now at the age where you should study hard. Don't mess with those people who have no rules. It's not good to have a temperament."

When Baoyu heard this, he felt a little unhappy.I also thought that when he was not in school, sister Lin never said these things to him.But when he arrived at Sister Bao's place, there was a carload of sour and rotten words, just listening to them already made him uncomfortable.Turning his head to see Baochai's flushed cheeks and panting lightly, Baoyu couldn't bear to refute her face, so he had to respond with a light smile.

Baochai was also very happy to see Baoyu being taught in this way.Looking at the purse tied around Baochai's waist, and seeing a green lotus leaf embroidered on the lotus-colored base, she smiled and said, "What a clever handwork, Xiren's needlework is getting better and better."

Baoyu looked down at the purse on his waist and said with a smile: "Where is it made by Xiren? It was made by sister Zijuan for me. Sister Bao, look at the stitches, are they very fine?"

Baochai was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, but when he looked again, he found that the stitching was quite different from what Baoyu used to wear.Then he also laughed and said, "So it was made by Zicuckoo." Then he asked with a smile, "I had a cold a few days ago, and I was busy. I just remembered when you mentioned it now. Why did sister Lin go to her house and didn't take care of it?" How about taking Zicuckoo away together?"

When Baoyu heard this, he thought of the scene of that evening.Thinking of Xiren coming up to fight Zicuckoo with red and swollen eyes from crying, and thinking of Zicuckoo kneeling weakly on the ground to bear Mrs. Wang's anger.Sister Feng was also on the sidelines to comfort her. Brother Lin packed up his things overnight after being wronged and left...

Immediately he hurriedly said: "I don't know, I don't know."

Baochai also regretted her slip of the tongue, and hurriedly said: "Brother Bao, don't worry, I made a mistake." Then he stretched out his hand to hold Baoyu's hand, and only smiled comfortingly: "I wanted to ask, Miss Zijuan is used to working with her aunt now?"

"I don't know about that, and my wife doesn't know how to arrange her. It's very difficult for me to go to pay her respects every day, and it's extremely difficult to see her." As he said, he smiled again, "It's just that my wife is always the most easy-going and charitable. I'm sure I won't embarrass her. Perhaps I have arranged another place for her to live in." It's just that these words are too feeble, and I can't even convince myself when I say them.

The two people here were talking and talking and laughing softly.Aunt Xue took a look in the outer room, then went to Xiangling's room with her lips pursed and a smile.As soon as she entered the door, she saw Xiangling was slowly embroidering with a stretcher in her hand. Looking closer, it turned out to be a leaf of duckweed.Aunt Xue was a little displeased, and her face was a little pale, she just said: "Your uncle hasn't come back for two or three days, why are you as silent as a dead man?"

Xiangling heard Aunt Xue's voice unexpectedly, she was so frightened that she even dropped her tent on the ground, and was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

Aunt Xue was annoyed, so she just scolded a few more words and that's all.I only thought in my heart that now that Mrs. Wang is concerned about this matter, it is expected that Pan'er will be fine.How could he know that in only two days, Zhou Rui's family came in and said that Xue Pan was being imprisoned in the yamen.

It turned out that Aunt Xue was talking and joking with Mrs. Wang that day, and Baochai was much better, so she came here with Aunt Xue.Mrs. Wang held Baochai's hand and praised her, which made Baochai blush, but refused to obey.Mrs. Wang then ordered Jin Chuan'er to bring in some fruit for Aunt Xue and Baochai, and then she started talking about her brother Prince Teng's promotion.The two sisters talked and laughed at Yan Yan, just when they were proud, they heard Zhou Rui's family come in with a shudder, and said: "Master Xue's family has been captured!"

In a word, Aunt Xue almost fainted from fright, but fortunately Baochai was there to support her.Mrs. Wang was also taken aback, she didn't care about Aunt Xue's good or bad, and hurriedly asked Zhou Rui's family what was going on.

Zhou Rui's family was also a clever person, so he told the whole story.He said again: "At first I thought it was just a matter of money, but now it's no longer possible. Mr. Xue is now locked up in the Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen. We shameless people don't have any qualifications." go!"

Mrs. Wang groaned, and said to Jin Chuan'er, "Go and call your Lian's second grandma." Seeing Jin Chuan'er in a daze, she drank, "Be quick, you are so lazy, I will send you out tomorrow." I have good fruit for you!" Jin Chuaner was so frightened that he hurriedly ran out.

Mrs. Wang comforted the weeping Aunt Xue and said: "Don't worry too, when Feng girl comes, we will make a deal together!"

But it is said that Jin Chuan'er went to Sister Feng's place, but was in vain.Sister Feng is no longer interested in this corner place.It was just pretending to be passable on the surface, but in fact, he fell asleep in the big room for eight out of ten days.Jia Lian's life has been much easier since Sister Feng changed her sex.Seeing that Sister Feng is more gentle and considerate than she used to be, I feel very satisfied.Because of capturing Jia Lian's mind, Sister Feng felt that her life was much better than before.Since then, he has not cared about the steward's power and other matters.

When Jin Chuaner saw that Sister Feng was not here, she hurried to look for Jia Mu.She wholeheartedly thought that if Sister Feng was not in her room, she must have gone to Jiamu's to please her.But who would have expected that Sister Feng is now self-cultivating, so she is lazy to go out to flatter her.He only pushed and said that he was not well, and Mrs. Wang secretly mentioned her to take care of her. The two boxes of ginseng held by Sister Feng were the most painful feet of Mrs. Wang.

When they arrived at the upper room, seeing the mandarin ducks coming out of the room, Jin Chuan'er hurriedly grabbed her hand, and didn't care to catch her breath, so she asked anxiously, "Is Second Grandma Lian here? Our wife has something urgent to find." What about her!"

Yuanyang wondered: "Why are you here looking for someone? The old lady is still asleep in the house, but you tell me, what is your wife's urgent matter?"

When Jin Chuan'er heard it, she didn't care about anything else, and said out of breath, "You don't know, then, the Xue family, the master of the Xue family beat someone, and was arrested by the commander of the Wucheng Army Division." Now, now people are being locked up there, Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen!" Holding Yuanyang's hand again, he said: "Good sister, go in quickly and call Second Mistress Lian to come out. If I go back later, madam Not sure how to deal with me!"

Yuanyang was about to explain that Sister Feng was not here, when she heard a low shout from the inner room. It turned out that Jia Mu woke up.He hurriedly let go of Jin Chuan'er's hand and went in.Jin Chuan'er only thought that Sister Feng was also inside, so she gritted her teeth, thinking that after going in, she invited Ann to find some excuse, and just asked Sister Feng to go with her.

Her calculations were good, but after entering, she found that there was no one else in the huge inner room except three or five serving maids.Immediately her face turned pale, and when she was about to leave, she heard Mother Jia snorting coldly: "What did you just say outside? The elder brother of the Xue family beat someone and was locked up?"

As soon as Jin Chuan'er raised his head, he saw Jia's mother looking over sharply. He was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground and cried, "Old lady Mingjian, we slaves can't say this." of."

Mother Jia snorted coldly, only knocked the agarwood walking stick in her hand on the ground twice, and said angrily: "What kind of relatives are leading us here, and I don't even think about what kind of stupid people they are, even It is not uncommon for someone to be beaten to death, but now that he has come to the capital, he pretends to be in Jinling! He is not restrained at all, and offended a nobleman, so what is going on now!"

Just as he was talking, he heard a maid say that Lian's second grandma had come to pay her respects.Mother Jia hurriedly said, "I want her to come in soon."

At first, Sister Feng wondered why the old lady was so quiet here.As a result, as soon as he entered the room, he saw Jin Chuan'er kneeling in the middle, with a pretty face that was pink and white, and cold sweat on his forehead.Sister Feng was startled, just when she was in doubt, she heard Mother Jia shouting at Jin Chuan'er: "Damn bastard, since your second grandma is here, why don't you tell your second grandma seriously?" Grandma listen!"

Jin Chuan'er wept and told the whole story, and said: "My wife wants me to come to grandma, grandma should follow me quickly. I'm afraid my wife will punish me if I'm late!"

As soon as Sister Feng heard this, she knew who Xue Da idiot had provoked again.I'm not happy to take care of this mess in my heart, but after all, it's my natal relative.Looking at the old lady's face again, it's not very good.At that moment, she only frowned and said, "I'm a woman in this matter, how can I help?" Then she said to Jiamu: "Old lady, now I don't care about the house, and many things in the house are done by hand. I can't help with the affairs of the inner house, and even less with the affairs of the outside."

When Jia Mu heard this, her face sank.It can be seen that it is not easy for Sister Feng to be like this, so she just said: "I don't care about you, since the second wife wants you to go, you go." In the end, I don't want to say this for Sister Feng Mrs. Wang.

Sister Feng gritted her teeth and said with a smile, "That's right. It's time to go and answer the second wife's words in person." As she spoke, she winked at Ping'er, helped Jin Chuan'er up, and turned to Jia Mu again. Blessing Fushen said: "Old lady, I'm going now."

Mother Jia just waved her hand casually and refused to look any further.Sister Feng walked in front, followed by Ping'er and Jin Chuan'er, who was crying all over her face.There was no sound along the way, and when she arrived in front of Mrs. Wang's house, Sister Feng stopped suddenly, turned her head and said to Jin Chuan'er, "You have nothing to hide about this?"

Jin Chuaner quickly shook his head and said, "Don't dare to lie to grandma again." Jin Chuaner has also seen the methods of Sister Feng's housekeeping in the past.There are people who dare to lie because Sister Feng is not at home these days!

Sister Feng narrowed her eyes and went to Mrs. Wang again.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw that Aunt Xue had already cried into tears. Baochai persuaded her, but her eyes were pink and smooth, and she could tell that she had been crying for a long time.Looking at Mrs. Wang again, she was sitting upright, although she said comforting words, there was not much emotion in her eyes.

Sister Feng blessed her body and greeted Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang.Just when she was about to get up, Aunt Xue ran over staggeringly and grabbed Sister Feng's hand, crying, "Brother Feng, when you were at home, you often heard your second sister-in-law praise you as the most talented and capable person. Now you My brother was kidnapped by the yamen, you have to think of a way."

Mrs. Wang also chimed in and said: "Yes, Brother Feng. It's not easy for your aunt either. She has only Pan'er under her knees. If you can figure out a way, not to mention that your aunt's family is grateful to you, even I will do it too." I see you differently."

Sister Feng sneered in her heart, for such an idea of ​​gratitude and admiration, should she go all out to help?Thinking about it, he said: "Auntie, sit down first, let's smooth this matter out. I just heard that girl Jin Chuan'er was not clear, and I haven't figured out anything yet. With that said, he and Baochai helped Aunt Xue to the couch again.

Baochai then said, "Sister Feng, let me talk to you. My brother hasn't come back for a few days. My mother and I are very worried, but we have no one in our hands. We went out and asked about the work of the shop, but they said we didn't see him." Brother. I came to ask my aunt for help when I had no idea, and my aunt asked people to inquire, but who knew that it was my brother who was imprisoned in Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen for beating someone." As he spoke, he burst into tears again.

Aunt Xue also cried: "Although your younger brother is usually a bit stupid, since he came to the capital, he has been trembling since he came to the capital. Why did these things spread and take your younger brother to suffer in that yamen. I feel sorry for you." Pan'er!" As he spoke, he began to howl.

Sister Feng frowned, saying this as if that idiot Xue was a law-abiding person.I don't even think about why he went to the capital, isn't it because he killed someone and suffered a lawsuit?Thinking of this, Sister Feng glanced at Mrs. Wang indiscriminately, seeing that Mrs. Wang still had that indifferent expression, she felt even more disgusted.Really good aunt, for the sake of future schemes, this trick is well buried.

Sister Feng then said, "Don't worry, Aunt, did you think that he has offended anyone?" Then she said to Baochai, "Your brother also goes out on weekdays. Do you know who he is with?"

This can't be true of Xue's mother and daughter.They are all women's families, so there is no reason to inquire about the whereabouts of men.What's more, Xue Pan is a little out of tune, sometimes he goes out without saying anything, and sometimes he goes out without saying anything.Because of this, he was arrested and locked up in Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen for three full days before the Xue family realized something was wrong.But he wasn't too vigilant, he just thought that he went out to have fun outside the city with some cronies.

Who would have thought of this!

Aunt Xue just cried: "Don't you know what kind of person your eldest brother is? Someone must be looking for him, and he is not pleasing to the eye. How long has our family only been in the capital? How can there be no reason? I offended someone. Brother Feng, you have to think of a way for your elder brother. Where is the Yamen where he should be? Either way... woohoo, I'm not alive anymore!"

Baochai went to persuade again, then turned back to Sister Feng and said, "Sister Feng, how did our woman's family find out about these things? My brother is locked up in that yamen now, so I have to ask Lian's second brother to help him move around. Here we are Thank you so much.”

Sister Feng shuddered, so this trick was waiting here!

Immediately said: "Your Lian's second brother is a famous figure. I'm afraid not many people know him when he goes out. Everyone in the net day is running errands for common affairs. How can anyone really do it. Let me tell you. , this matter has to be discussed and discussed, if not, you have to talk to the second master."

Mrs. Wang sneered and said, "If you bother to go to the master for such a big matter, why can't we do it?" Then she said: "Lian'er is also a successful person now. He walks outside on weekdays. Don't talk about it." If you know any noble person, there must be someone who can talk. As long as he makes a mouthful, you will push back here and refuse. Isn't your elder brother suffering now?"

Sister Feng's face turned blue and white, and Aunt Xue cried and said, "Brother Feng, we don't want you to run errands for nothing. You just let Lian'er talk, and if you want money or silver, just come and talk to us." Take it. We have nothing more to say."

Sister Feng gritted her teeth, forcefully forced a smile, and said: "Where is this, just don't worry, aunt, I'll go back and tell the second master."

After receiving such a sentence, Aunt Xue stopped crying and stopped crying.He just said to Sister Feng: "Brother Feng, you can remember your elder brother's life now, your aunt is only this son, if something happens to him, how do you want me to live!"

It made Sister Feng's forehead hurt, so she hurriedly resigned.

After returning to the eldest room, Mrs. Xing came over to see that her complexion was not good, so she asked when.Sister Feng kept a cold face and refused to say anything, so Mrs. Xing asked Ping'er again.Ping'er looked at Sister Feng's face, and said everything to Mrs. Xing, who was so angry that Mrs. Xing also said angrily: "Where is this rule, do you really think her brother is a good one? Even our family knows Yes, the elder brother of the Xue family came to the capital after beating someone to death, where in the capital is he allowed to be presumptuous!"

Sister Feng hurriedly got up to persuade, Madam Xing looked at Sister Feng's reddish eyes and said, "I know it's hard for you. It's just that the second wife said these things, it doesn't look like you don't help. Wait for Lian'er Come back, please talk to him. Help if you can, if you can't help, just do your best."

When Jia Lian came back in the evening and had dinner, Sister Feng mentioned this.Sure enough, Jia Lian looked angry, threw the bowls and chopsticks in his hand on the ground, pointed at Sister Feng and said, "They are all good relatives of your family, why don't other people's family walk around the street every day without being caught?" Go to Masi Yamen, only your relatives can!"

If these words were to be put in the past, Sister Feng would have turned her face a long time ago.But at this moment, he just said with a bitter face: "Second Master, don't be angry, I'm also thinking of a solution."

Jia Lian said angrily, "A way? What can I do? I don't have any friendship with those people from the Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen. I haven't met any of them. Now they want me to beg for mercy and run errands, and they don't laugh their ass off!" What kind of person am I, I'm afraid people won't look at me directly!" As he spoke, he felt a little bitter again.

Sister Feng also sighed: "Second Wife said here, if we don't help, it seems that we are not humane. Second Master just try his best, it doesn't matter if he succeeds or not."

Jia Lian snorted coldly, thinking of what Sister Feng said about the second wife, she sneered a few times and said: "The second wife said that well, I just take that idiot Xue for who! I don't even think about him. Why did he go to the capital and beat people to pieces just because of a girl. It was still in Jinling City, and he still wanted to sneak into the capital with a life lawsuit on his back. But I didn't see him restraining himself, every time He fights cocks and dogs in the daytime, lest others will not focus on him!"

Sister Feng didn't know Xue Pan's temperament, but she was somewhat related, so she felt bitter but couldn't tell.When Jia Lian had had enough of scolding for a while, when she turned around and saw that Sister Feng's eyes were red and she didn't speak, she just sat there with her lips pursed, and she felt a little regretful again.He just leaned over and put his arms around Sister Feng, and said in a gentle voice: "I also know how you used to be. Now you are such a good person, but such a terrible thing has come to your door."

Sister Feng hugged Jia Lian's neck and wept, "I just hope that the second master understands my heart."

It made Jia Lian's heart soften, and he couldn't bear to criticize Sister Feng anymore.I only put all this account on Mrs. Wang and Xue's family, and when I looked down and saw Sister Feng's face weeping, the feeling of spring gradually grew.There was some restlessness in the hands.

The next day, Jia Lian went out early.After running for a few legs, he saw Li Renfu. Li Renfu didn't wait for him to speak, and the first thing he said was: "There is no way to let Xue Pan go. You must know that Xue Pan has offended no one else!"

Jia Lian was startled, thinking that Xue Pan had offended some official's son.Then he asked: "Commander Li, please tell me who he offended, and I will come to the door to apologize in person." But Xue Pan was scolded to death in his heart!

Li Renfu smiled coldly, and said: "This man is afraid that you will be thrown out if you don't even see your face." As he spoke, he saw Jia Lian's complexion changed slightly, so he gave his name as water-soluble, and he ignored his expression after speaking. Jia Lian, who was as pale as paper, went in alone.

Jia Lian stood blankly at the gate of Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen for a long time before recovering from the news.Oh my god, it wasn't someone else offended by idiot Xue, but King Shui Rong of Beijing Jing? !How can he help now!

After Sister Feng heard the news, she was also very frightened, she just felt dizzy, thinking that Xue Pan was doomed.

The husband and wife were talking, and the old lady over there ordered someone to come and invite Jia Lian and his wife to talk.Sister Feng and Jia Lian looked at each other and sighed.When I got to Jia Mu's place, I saw not only Mrs. Wang, but also Aunt Xue.The rest of the sisters didn't come.Sister Feng frowned, and the two greeted everyone, and Mother Jia asked them to sit down.

Just asked Xiang Jialian, "Can you inquire about the matter of Mr. Xue's family?"

Jia Lian then said, "Find out everything."

Jia Mu nodded and asked again: "Is there a way to get Master Xue to come out?"

Jia Lian shook his head, "Lian'er is incompetent, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do."

Aunt Xue straightened up impatiently, and hurriedly asked: "Do you want money to unblock it? How much? Do you want a banknote or a spindle?"

Jia Lian just shook his head and said nothing, Aunt Xue's face flushed red with anxiety.Mrs. Wang also frowned, looking at Jia Lian with a somewhat unfriendly look.He only said to Sister Feng: "Now that your eldest brother is in trouble, we, our flesh and blood relatives, naturally want to help. If you have difficulties, just speak up."

Sister Feng was silent, and just as Jia Lian was about to speak, she heard another person running in from outside, glaring at Mrs. Wang, and said, "Your second wife can't handle their difficulties if you just tell them about them!"

Jia Lian stared dumbfounded at Jia Amnesty who rushed in suddenly, feeling that she couldn't accept it for a moment.Is the valiant and high-spirited Jia She in front of me really his father who is drunk every day?Although during the period when Sister Feng and herself moved to Huayuanzi, Jia Lian also saw Jia She occasionally show a bit of arrogance, but it was not like today... so mighty and domineering!

Mrs. Wang was reprimanded by Jia She, and angrily squeezed the Buddhist beads in her hand, and said with a sneer, "Why, if you don't mention any difficulties, how come you know we can't help!"

Jia Amnesty was too lazy to talk to Madam Wang, so he bowed to Jiamu, and then sat down on the first chair on the lower right of Jiamu.As an uncle, if he quarreled with his second sister-in-law like this, wouldn't everyone else be able to take offense at him?Touching his chin, Jia Amnesty thought he might try this route.

Mother Jia glanced at Jia Amnesty who came uninvited, but didn't chase him away, but followed Mrs. Wang's words and asked: "Lian'er, what is the matter?"
