[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

When Lin Ze received the letter from Jia She, he was very surprised, because he still remembered that he didn't even see Jia She's face when he lived in Jia's house for a year or two. Besides, what is there to talk about?Rubbing his chin, Lin Ze raised the corners of his lips, hey, doesn't this look very interesting?

When Lin Lan came to look for Lin Ze, he saw Lin Ze smiling happily at a letter.The little chubby pouted his little butt and climbed onto the couch, then leaned on his brother's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Brother, when can I go and play with Brother Huan?"

Lin Ze turned his head to look at Lin Lan, and smiled softly.He really can come wherever he wants, so he smiled and said: "Lan'er wants to go to Brother Huan?"

"Yeah!" Xiao Pangdun blinked his dark eyes, his small appearance was not to mention very pleasing.

Lin Ze pretended to be distressed and said: "Ah, what can we do then, Jiji has fallen out of favor." When he said this, Jiji, who was brought in by Qingmei early in the morning and placed on the table, yelled twice unwillingly, hooking Xiaoji Fat Dun suddenly felt a little bit of guilt in his heart.

Lin Ze smiled and said, "I miss Brother Huan so much, I don't know if Brother Huan misses you or not."

Lin Lan blushed slightly, and then said loudly: "Of course I thought about it, Brother Huan even wrote me a letter!" As he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms.

Lin Ze took the letter. He still remembered how much Lin Lan didn't like writing and reading. Can he understand the letter Jia Huan wrote to him?

Of course... I understand it!

Looking at the specific animals, plants and pictographs appearing in the letter every few words, Lin Ze felt that his forehead was throbbing.Glancing at the proud little chubby, Lin Ze almost couldn't help but laugh.Lin Ze was also a little surprised that Lin Lan and Jia Huan got along so well.At the beginning, Jia Huan was attracted to him because Jia Huan hadn't grown crooked yet, which meant he could be trained and trained. Who would have thought that he hadn't gotten started here yet, but Jia Huan was familiar with Lin Lan here.

Tsk!Lin Ze flicked Lin Lan's small forehead, and said with a smile, "I'll treat you just once, and I'll let Chang'an envoys pick up Brother Huan and come over to accompany you."

Sure enough, Lin Lan, who had just been stunned by his brother, was about to pout and get angry, but when he heard Lin Ze's last sentence, the angry expression that hadn't been shown immediately changed into a happy and joyful expression. I lost my manners and ran out to play wild or something.

Seeing his happy look, Lin Ze was very puzzled.

Why does he always have a feeling that if Lin Lan and Jia Huan stay together, the relationship will be better?Is he thinking too much?He must be thinking too much!

Asking Chang'an to pick up Jia Huan might be an easy task, but it's actually not easy.It's a big joke for a bastard to want to freely come and go in the mansion.Besides, Jia Huan is not very old now. Compared with the nine-year-old Jia Baoyu who can go out and walk around with friends from time to time, Jia Huan can be said to be copying Buddhist scriptures at home while being watched by Mrs. Wang.

So what Lin Ze told Chang'an was to go to find Second Master Lian first, and then ask Second Master Lian to bring Jia Huan to come to Lin's mansion as guests.The big deal is to go back together at night. Anyway, Master Jia She's thinking is nothing more than that, right?

Rubbing his chin, Lin Ze once again read the letter from Jia Amnesty from beginning to end.Hey, I really didn't realize that this old man hides such an unruly heart under his sensual appearance, hey, he almost missed it!It's still Father Lin who has the ability, one sentence has stimulated the potential of Mr. Jia.

Well, just help this time.

Changan drove to Jia's mansion, and when he saw Jia Lian, he was also surprised by Jia Lian's politeness to him.Thinking back when he was in Yangzhou, the Second Lord Lian was invisible, unlike the descendants of some aristocratic families like he is now.Chang An slandered a few words in his heart, then came over respectfully to salute.After repeating Lin Ze's meaning, Jia Lian smiled and said, "Since it's Cousin Lin's meaning, I must wrong you and wait outside until I pick up Brother Huan and come out. Let's go together again." .”

Chang An also thanked him, and went back to the carriage to wait.

Because Jia Lian wanted to go to the second bedroom, he was always a little hesitant, but thinking about what Cousin Lin said, it was hard to refuse.Then the family came to change clothes and went to look for Jia Huan. Who would have thought that Wang Xifeng would come back from Mrs. Xing just in time.The husband and wife said a few words. Listening to Jia Lian's voice, Sister Feng smiled and said, "I think it's something that stumped the second master. It turned out to be this. Just don't worry, the second master, just leave it to me." .” Saying that, he already went to the second room first.

After hearing what Sister Feng said, Jia Lian was no longer worried, so she also smiled and went back to the house to sit down and have tea, just waiting for the good news.

But she said that Sister Feng went to the Baosha behind Rongxi hall, walked around a yard, and walked through a chasing corridor, and saw a small courtyard.A few maids inside were chatting, joking, and playing around, but none of them were hardworking and willing to work. One of them saw that Sister Feng was coming, so she stood up to say hello.Sister Feng sneered, and said with a straight face: "It's against you, you have to stand up in front of the master, and you don't even think about what it is. If you push your nose on your face, you don't know how you will die any day!" The faces of the girls turned pale for a while.

After scolding a few words, Sister Feng was reluctant to say any more. When she was in charge of the house, she always stood on the same side as Mrs. Wang.At that time, I didn't even look down on Aunt Zhao and other vulgar vixen, and often pointed at Sang and Huai when they talked.Seeing the laziness of the girl in her yard now, I feel a little sympathy in my heart.

Before Sister Feng could ask her a question, she heard a gust of fragrant wind behind her, and when she looked back, it was Aunt Zhao who came with red eyes.

Aunt Zhao just had a meal at Mrs. Wang's, and she was feeling wronged and resentful in her heart, who wanted to come to her, and saw such a powerful person blocking the door.I felt bad for a while, and my tone was a little bad. I just looked at Sister Feng and said, "Oh, who is here! It turns out that the second grandmother of Lian is here. My temple here is small, how can I accommodate your Buddha! "

Sister Feng was not angry when she heard her sarcasm, she just looked at Jia Huan behind her and said: "I came to meet Brother Huan, so I won't go in and sit here with my aunt."

When Aunt Zhao heard this, she opened her arms like a hen guarding her cubs, glared at Sister Feng angrily and said, "What kind of reason is this? I just talked it over with my wife, and when I went back to the yard, there was another Good words from grandma are waiting. Our mother and son are both low-born bastards, but we have saved our face in the house, and we were trampled on like this.

Sister Feng heard her talking more and more shameless, frowned and said: "Auntie, please shut up, and give yourself some respect! Who in this mansion didn't earn their own face, but they came to bully Auntie's head. Why are the two aunts in the second room rushing to you, aunt? They are also aunts, so why don’t you open your eyes to see how Aunt Zhou behaves!”

Saying that, regardless of Aunt Zhao's reaction, she just said to Jia Huan: "Brother Huan, your cousin of the Lin family asked me to pick you up to play. If you want to go here, come with me. If you don't, Go, just stay at home, I don't care."

When Jia Huan heard that it was Lin Ze who came to pick him up, he knew that it was Lin Lan who wanted to see him.Looking up at Aunt Zhao who was still standing there stupidly, she walked two steps forward to Sister Feng and said, "Of course I'm going."

Sister Feng pursed her lips and smiled, "That's right." Then she turned and left, regardless of Aunt Zhao's behavior.

Jia Huan followed Sister Feng's footsteps, then looked back at Aunt Zhao, her lips moved, but she still didn't say anything.

When Jia Lian brought Jia Huan to Lin's mansion, Lin Cheng had already come up to greet them, and said that the uncle was in the flower hall.The two hurriedly came to the flower hall to look for Lin Ze, and before they could say a few words, Lin Ze smiled at the restless Jia Huan: "Brother Huan, Lan'er is in Dongfanger's room, I'll let someone take you away." Go there." Saying that, he glanced at Bai Guo.

Bai Guo understood, and went forward to bless the body, and said with a smile: "I will take you there."

Jia Huan hurriedly got up and resigned from Lin Ze and Jia Lian, and followed Bai Guo to Lin Lan's place.

Lin Ze looked at Jia Huan's back until he left the flower hall, then smiled with lowered eyes: "Second Brother Lian, since you are here today, we must have a few words."

When Jia Lian heard this, he straightened his waist involuntarily.Looking at Lin Ze's movement of slowly skimming off the tea foam, it was obviously calm, but he didn't know what was going on. Hearing his tone, demeanor and actions, Jia Lian felt a little guilty.

Lin Ze curled his lips into a slight smile, thinking of the words in Jia Amnesty's letter and the family letter from Lin Ruhai, he just smiled and said, "Second Brother Lian, I used to live in your residence, so I can understand your difficulties. You are running the general affairs outside, and the whole family depends on you alone. It is really hard work, and I admire it very much."

These words really hit Jia Lian's little heart.

Isn't it!In Jia's mansion, not to mention Ningguo Mansion, which is ineffective, but in Rongguo Mansion, the elder Jia She doesn't care about things, even if he wants to take care of it, it's not his turn to take care of it.The second master, Jia Zheng, seems capable, but what is the real situation?In the whole town, I knew that I was raising a family of Qing Ke Xianggong, who talked about knowledge every day, but I was very busy that day, but I didn't make any contribution to the family.

If you want to say that the most capable person in the family is the eldest son Jia Zhu in the second room.Studying hard at a young age, it is easy to win a master, who wants to marry a wife and die before the child is born.The one with the most high hopes is Baoyu, who is melted by the old lady with fear in her mouth every day, holding it in her hand for fear of falling, being beaten and scolded repeatedly, so angry that the second master took up the family law I can't do it either.why?Because the old lady and the second wife are protecting it.

Therefore, the two masters don't care about the general affairs of the family.Not to mention those bastards, they couldn't handle it.Jia Lian is really the only one in the family who can run errands!

How else to put it, sometimes, you don’t find it hard to do a lot of things.But when someone understands your suffering, you can't stand it.The grievance in my heart seems to be hidden in a place where you can't see it. Now that there is an outlet, it will burst quickly.

Jia Lian is obviously such a person.

He worked for the Jia family before, so he really didn't feel the word "hard work", he was just doing it for his duty.But now that Lin Ze said this, his nose felt a little sour.Isn't it!The old lady is so eccentric that there is almost no limit. Which family has raised a boy who is eight or nine years old, and he can't read and study, and he can't do things!Even when he was as old as Baoyu, he knew that the way of studying and taking the imperial examination was useless, so the elder knew how to find a job for him quickly to hone his temperament.

Lin Ze saw Jia Lian's expression and knew that Jia Lian was wronged.But Lin Ze didn't intend to persuade them at all, and there was no reason why. If he did, when would he be able to achieve the goal of disintegrating the internal unity of the enemy!

Seeing that Jia Lian was almost thinking about it, Lin Ze changed the subject with a smile, and talked about the most concerned issues of the Jia family and the Xue family: "Second brother Lian, why did I hear that the Xue family seems to have entered Wucheng?" Bingmasi Yamen?"

Jia Lian slapped his thigh, gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't that right? I didn't know what I did in Jingri, but I was caught by the people from Wucheng Bingmasi. I'm angry here, thinking about my relatives." Anyway, I will be the top leader, but where is the Wucheng Bingmasi Yamen, how can I be willing to give me this face!"

Lin Ze smiled lowly and said, "Since Xue's family has money, is it possible that they can't get it out personally?"

Jia Lian snorted softly, "Even if there is money that can reach the sky, it can't stop this idiot Xue from offending someone who can't be offended!" As he spoke, seeing Lin Ze's half-smile, Jia Lian thought he heard it from outside. He just said in a low voice: "Cousin Lin didn't know, and that idiot Xue didn't know what he did to offend the prince!"

"Oh?" Lin Ze raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little interested, and smiled with his lips hooked: "Which prince is it? Could it be the most temperamental and obedient prince in the capital?"

"Hey, if it's a loyal and obedient prince, we can still say a few words!" As he spoke, he only sighed and said, "I'm afraid Cousin Lin doesn't know that there is a prince in this capital, who is a hereditary substitute." Even though he is not as powerful as before, the emperor still trusts him. Besides, the prince of Beijing Jing has always had the best temper and never blushed with anyone. That's why I said it , I don’t know what fool Xue did to make the prince of Beijing so angry that he asked Commander Li of the Wucheng Bingma Si Yamen to personally arrest fool Xue.”

Lin Ze seemed to be listening with great interest, and when he saw what Jia Lian said, he still nodded his head and echoed a few words: "That's right, although I have only been in the capital for a short time, I also know that there are many people in this capital. Noble man. How else to put it, the place under the Son of Heaven is naturally different from other places."

In a word, Jia Lian was even more annoyed.

He didn't know how many times he was criticized by Mrs. Wang overtly and secretly because of the matters of the Xue family during this period of time.Even Sister Feng suffered accordingly. Every day she paid her respects to the old lady, without saying a few words, she had to bear the cold eyes of the old lady and Mrs. Wang and the crying of Aunt Xue.Sister Feng was so angry that she really had a headache for two or three days, and she wished she would just get sick and not go to ask for peace.

Seeing that Jia Lian stopped talking, Lin Ze also smiled and said, "Second brother Lian, I thought of something, maybe I can help you."

Jia Lian hurriedly said, "What's the matter? Cousin Lin, come and let me hear."

Lin Ze smiled and said, "I heard that Master Wang Ziteng has now been promoted to the Nine Provinces. Why don't you write a letter and ask him for help?"

Jia Lian sighed and said, "Cousin Lin is not the only one who thought of this. I also went to the door to ask. It's just that he is outside and not in Beijing. After all, he can't quench his thirst." Fake, ever since something happened to Xue Pan, Aunt Xue was so anxious that she begged everyone who could beg for Xue Pan. The first thing she thought of was Mrs. Wang. After entering the Yamen, Wang Ziteng was the one who thought of it!

The letter written overnight was sent out, but there was no response at all.Aunt Xue was so anxious that she couldn't eat well, and she couldn't sleep well.Even Baochai was very anxious about this matter, and he lost a lot of weight.Only Baoyu would say, "Looks better than sick Xizi." Baochai was so angry that he almost kicked him out.

Lin Ze only smiled and said, "Although Mr. Wang is outside, there may not be any female relatives staying behind in Beijing. Besides, with the friendship of their aunts and sisters-in-law, wouldn't Mrs. Wang help out? It's not good to say it. of."

When Jia Lian heard this, he thought it was the same reason.

Lin Ze woke him up with a word, and led the flames to the Wang family, so it has nothing to do with them.Since Jia Amnesty asked him to find a way to pick Jia Lian out, the best way is to find someone more reliable than Jia Lian.In this regard, no one is more suitable than Wang Ziteng.

Jia Lian sat there thinking on his own, Lin Ze didn't worry or rush him, just let him.But he was thinking in his heart that he had to go to Shui Rong's place tomorrow, tsk, at least I can't let that idiot Xue come out so easily!

Jia Lian stayed in Lin's residence for most of the day, and when Jia Huan and Lin Lan came together, he stood up and said with a smile, "Cousin Xiaolin, long time no see."

Lin Lan raised her face and said with a smile, "Second Cousin Lian, long time no see."

One sentence made the servants who followed behind him also laugh.Seeing them, Jia Lian was a little surprised, pointing to the boys who were about the same age as Lin Ze and asked, "I've never seen these guys before."

Lin Ze smiled and didn't speak, just heard Lin Lan laughing and said: "Second Cousin Lian doesn't know, I am also an adult. If I am an adult, I will have a servant to follow. My brother found it for me. Second Cousin Lian, you Does it look good?"

If you want to tell Jia Lian that Lin Ze spoils his younger brother too much, he is the eldest son of the eldest son, and it is not his turn to get this kind of treatment.But seeing Lin Ze smiling softly and Lin Lan puffing up his nose, Jia Lian smiled enviously and said, "That's because your brother loves you."

As soon as Lin Lan heard this, she trotted over and grabbed Lin Ze's arm, acting like a spoiled child.Lin Ze nodded his forehead and said with a smile: "You are so naughty, Brother Huan is still here, let Brother Huan watch to see if he laughs at you." Then he smiled at Jia Lian and Jia Huan: "It's better to be there at night. Let’s eat here, but it’s just a matter of two more pairs of chopsticks.”

Jia Lian just declined with a smile and said, "I've been here for half a day, and it's not good if I don't go back. Just come back next time." He smiled at Jia Huan and said, "Brother Huan, let's take our leave now? "

Jia Huan also smiled, and said goodbye to Lin Ze.Lin Ze smiled and nodded, only Lin Lan pouted a little unhappy, seeing that Jia Huan was leaving, he personally sent Jia Huan to the door.The two children held hands and talked affectionately, and when they talked about when and when they would get together to play together again, Lin Ze laughed a little.

It was indeed getting late, so it was better to let Changan drive them back as soon as possible.As soon as he turned his head, he saw Lin Lan watching the carriage drift away with his mouth pursed. Lin Ze smiled and said, "What's wrong? You look so unhappy again, could it be that you Brother Huan bullied you? Then don't allow it next time." he came."

Lin Lan hurriedly said: "That's not true, brother, don't guess randomly!" After thinking about it, he said: "I just feel that Brother Huan is so pitiful. He has no one to play with him, and no one to play with him. Reading books, guessing puzzles and playing games, how boring.”

Lin Ze smiled and took Lin Lan's hand to enter the door, and said with a smile as he walked, "Brother Huan has something he should do, it's a bit difficult for him in that mansion, it will be fine when he grows up. "Just saying this, but I can't convince myself in my heart.According to Mrs. Wang's temperament, it is strange that she can accommodate a concubine.I am afraid that the older Jia Huan is, the more difficult the situation will be.

Lin Lan wrinkled her nose and muttered, "I don't like that second cousin." She raised her head, grabbed Lin Ze's sleeve and said, "I don't like that second cousin named Baoyu, he doesn't look good at all. .”

Lin Ze laughed out loud, feeling that his three brothers and sisters didn't even look down on that phoenix egg, and they got along with each other too tacitly.Then he stroked Lin Lan's hair and smiled, "Who forced you to like it?"

Lin Lan said with a bitter face: "Brother Huan said that. He said that everyone in the house likes Baoyu. Even if they don't like it, they have to act like they like it. Otherwise, they will be talked about." .” As he spoke, he frowned and said only: “But I just don’t like him, and if I don’t like him, I don’t like him.”

Lin Ze sighed lightly after hearing what Lin Lan said.As a bastard, Jia Huan is in a difficult situation that is hard to see for ordinary people.That Jia's house was bright and beautiful on the outside, but the inner bag was rotten.The so-called psychic gem is actually nothing more than a stubborn stone.However, because of the favor of those in power in the Jia family, the people below were all courteous and obedient, and praised Jia Baoyu high.

It's a shame that at such a young age, he has already understood the warmth and coldness of human relationships and the fickleness of the world.

On the second day, Lin Ze quietly sent someone to Shen's house to deliver a letter, saying that it was for water soluble.But I am an old god staying in the mansion, just waiting to see a good show.There is no need to elaborate on Shui Rong's thoughts after receiving the letter, just looking at his dumbfounded look, he knows what kind of evil Lin Ze has played.But who made Lin Ze's backer big? Shui Rong put the letter into his arms with a smile, waved to the person on the chair with a face as dark as the bottom of a pot, and went back to his palace.

Sure enough, after a short wait, people from the Wang family in Shui Rong's mansion brought many big gifts to show their love.Shui Rong only reasoned that he was unwell, but refused to see him.This made Wang Ziteng very anxious, he couldn't figure out whether Shui Rong was a real illness or a fake illness, but the prince has always been a good talker, so there must be a reason why he is suddenly so difficult to serve at this time.

Wang Ziteng scolded Xue Pan several times in his heart, but in the end it was his own nephew, and he couldn't do it without saving him, so he had to send someone to inquire again.

This inquiring was very serious, there was a word from the Prince of Beijing Palace that Xue Pan insulted the prince in the street that day when the King of Beijing was dressed in micro-clothes.The prince was so angry that his blood surged up, and he almost didn't get mad at him.Fortunately, Commander Li of Wucheng Bingma Division came later and took Xue Pan away, otherwise he might not be so angry with the prince!

These words frightened Wang Ziteng quite a bit.Just thinking about Xue Pan's temperament, if he doesn't restrain himself well, there will be a moment when he will die!It's just that the top priority now is to get the person out first.Cursing fiercely in his heart, Wang Ziteng deeply felt that the reason for bringing up Xue Pan to the way he is now is ultimately at Aunt Xue's place.

If it wasn't for Aunt Xue who spoiled Xue Pan too much, how could he allow him to be so lawless!It's really impossible to treat the capital as Jinling, and I only use my own temper to make things happen!

There are also more people visiting the Beijing Prince Teng's mansion. Those officials who have a close personal relationship with Wang Ziteng are there to intercede, and those officials who can't understand Wang Ziteng's attitude on weekdays are also The big and small bags are rushing to make trouble.But these officials, without exception, were blocked at the door.The housekeeper of the palace said that the prince is in poor health, and he just needs to relieve his anger!

Oops, this is a big deal.

After Wang Ziteng heard the news, he rushed back from outside overnight.Although this matter started from Xue Pan, since he is the one who took over the matter now, wouldn't the prince have to blame him for it!

Thinking of this, Wang Ziteng was about to break out in a cold sweat.

Shui Rong was still trying to save face for the prince. Hearing Wang Ziteng's cautious tone, he finally just sighed and said, "After all, he is young and ignorant. I don't blame him. Hey, it seems that Commander Li made a big fuss."

The prince hurriedly said: "My lord, you must not say that. It was the nephew of the lower official who offended the lord. The lord lord has a lot of people so he doesn't care about him. When I see him, I must bring him to make amends in person!"

Shui Rong was lying on the couch with a pale face. Hearing what Wang Ziteng said, he waved his hand feebly and said, "It's very unnecessary. I just say a few words carefully, so that he will have something to fear. I won’t do it again.” He coughed a few more times, and said to a maidservant beside him, “Take my post and give it to Mr. Wang, and ask the doorman to set up a carriage and take Mr. Wang to five. City soldier Ma Si Yamen."

The prince hurriedly said that he didn't dare.After accepting Shui Rong's famous post, I went there with a thousand words of thanks.

When I saw Xue Pan, I saw that his face was swollen, his mouth was drooling, the clothes on his body were already torn, and even the pants on his lower body were crumpled up, accompanied by a bad smell.Wang Ziteng frowned, and said to Li Renfu who came with him, "Is this how you treat people?" Seeing Xue Pan suffering such a serious crime, even though there was no trace of torture, Wang Ziteng was very angry.

Li Renfu didn't buy it, and only said coldly: "I insulted the prince in the street. I have never punished him. I have already forgiven him. Why do you have anything to say, Mr. Wang? Why don't you talk to the prince face to face?"

One sentence made Wang Ziteng's chest stagnate, wishing he could yell angrily.It's just that he also knew that at this moment, he was in the yamen of Bingma Si in Wucheng, which was Li Renfu's territory. Li Renfu had never had any friendship with him, so naturally he would not sell his face.Immediately, he said to the young man who followed behind him: "I helped Mr. Xue out, so let's go back."

The young servants held back the stench and came to help Xue Pan.As soon as he got up, Wang Ziteng found that Xue Pan's limbs were weak, his eyes were swollen, and he was obviously demented after being frightened enough.Then he gave Li Renfu a hard look, and strode out.

Li Renfu looked at the back of Wang Ziteng waving his sleeves away, and silently raised the corners of his lips.

"Doctor, what's wrong with him?" Wang Ziteng greeted the doctor immediately when he saw the doctor come out.

I saw the gray-haired old doctor twirling his beard and sighing: "Brother is afraid that he has some dementia, he seems to be very frightened. I am not sure about the cure. Besides, my lower body is festered and swollen. In the future, I'm afraid there will be a little..." As he spoke, he stopped talking.According to the old doctor's thinking, this person is already insane, and even if he has sound limbs in the future, he may not be able to do it.Now even the lower body is festering like that, whoops.

When Wang Ziteng heard this, his face became very ugly.Just as the doctor was about to be sent out, a young man from the gatehouse came over and reported that Aunt Xue had come with Mrs. Wang in a carriage.Hearing this, Wang Ziteng's expression became even worse.

"My Pan'er, why did it become like this! Look at mom, Pan'er..."

Aunt Xue's constant howling made Wang Ziteng frowned impatiently, and a teacup immediately fell to pieces on the ground, startling both Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang.Even Xue Pan, who was lying on the bed and somewhat unconscious, trembled.Then Wang Ziteng shouted angrily: "Shut your mouth, now that you know you are crying, where did you go? If you hadn't spoiled him blindly, how would he have gotten into such a disaster today!"

Aunt Xue cried, "What do you mean by brother? I am a woman, and Pan'er's father left early. How can we leave us orphans and widows!"

Wang Ziteng said bitterly: "When my brother-in-law was here, I used to say, don't spoil Pan'er blindly. Now it's good, Baochai is old enough to enter the palace, and she has the management of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. What things are not perfect. Pian Pan'er filed a life lawsuit and deprived of the small election quota, do you just think it's a good thing?"

As he spoke, he shook his head and said bitterly: "Now you have the face to cry, it's all because of you that Pan'er became what he is today."

One sentence made Aunt Xue burst into tears, and she almost cried to death when she threw herself on Xue Pan.

Mrs. Wang was sitting beside her, listening to Wang Ziteng scolding Aunt Xue one sentence at a time. She felt a little apprehensive, so she said to Wang Ziteng, "Second brother, how are you doing now? Pan'er's behavior is not a problem after all. .Since the doctors say there is nothing we can do, why don't we just ignore it?"

Wang Ziteng frowned and said, "I have met a doctor by chance, he is a miraculous doctor who can rejuvenate. I just don't know if Pan'er will be lucky enough to meet him."

Aunt Xue quickly stopped her tears and said: "Which genius doctor is my brother talking about, I will spend any amount of money, just to cure Pan'er!"

Wang Ziteng snorted coldly: "Do you still think that silver can communicate with ghosts and gods? Don't even look at Pan'er's current appearance! That genius doctor loves to travel all over the world. I don't know where to find him now. I just remember him vaguely saying Where are you going, now I am going to patrol the border, maybe I will meet you."

As she said that, she glanced at Aunt Xue again, and said with a sneer, "If you want Pan'er to be well, you must let him go with me. If you want him to stay, you may not be able to heal for the rest of your life."

It made Aunt Xue weep again and again, she just cried and fell on Xue Pan's body, almost crying to death.She neither wants Xue Pan to leave, but also wants Xue Pan to recover from his illness, but the doctors in Beijing are helpless to deal with Xue Pan, even if they invite the imperial physician to see him with the Jia family's famous card, they just shake their heads and refuse. Look again.When Aunt Xue thought of asking Wang Ziteng to take Xue Pan away, her heart felt like a knife was being cut.

Seeing her like this, Wang Ziteng just snorted a few times and was about to walk away.Mrs. Wang hurriedly stopped her, and said: "Second brother, don't be angry, after all, she only has one Pan'er under her knee, and there is some partiality."

These words seemed to light firecrackers, so Wang Ziteng pointed to Mrs. Wang's nose and shouted: "You still have the face to say this, I will ask you later, Baoyu is now eight or nine years old, and he is still in charge of human affairs." I don’t know. If you can’t study and study, you can’t learn martial arts, but you have to talk about how he will rely on to settle down and establish a career in the future!”

When Mrs. Wang was told by Wang Ziteng, she felt a little uncomfortable.According to Mrs. Wang's thinking, it's all right for Baoyu to be undistinguished all his life. Anyway, with the old lady taking care of him and the Jia family's big family business supporting him, can Baoyu still starve?But listening to Wang Ziteng's words, he didn't dare to refute a word.

There, Aunt Xue gradually stopped crying, and only said to Prince Teng Fushen, "Brother is thinking of Pan'er, and I never don't know about it. It's just that I can't let him go, and I hope my brother will live well." take care of him."

"You don't need to say that."

Aunt Xue's eyes turned red, and she said again: "I'm a woman, so I can't restrain him no matter how much I can. Treat him better, and I just ask you to help me discipline, brother and sister. "

Hearing what she said, Wang Ziteng couldn't help feeling like a brother and sister, so he only sighed and nodded in agreement.Aunt Xue took care of Xue Pan for a few more days, but because Wang Ziteng was busy with business and couldn't stay long, she had to see him off in tears.Seeing the carriage going further and further away, Aunt Xue couldn't stop crying.

"It's a coincidence, and I didn't expect that idiot Xue to be so unlucky."

Shui Rong wiped off the lotus powder on his face with a smile, and then smiled at Lin Ze: "What's the matter, you pick and choose the things from the Xue family and the Wang family, so you should leave some good ones for me? Otherwise, why not Didn't I play a play in vain but get nothing!"

Lin Ze gave him a blank look, locked the stack of thick banknotes into the small box he carried with him, and said with a smile: "You are a prince, you have never seen or used anything good, and you are looking at it These worthless things."

Shui Rong wanted to laugh even more.He said this as if he was being unreasonable, don't you know that this person in front of you, once he came to the mansion, he rummaged through all the gifts sent to the door by the Wang family and the Xue family, taking away the exquisite and fun ones, the real gold and silver You have to take it away, and you have to take away the interesting and delicious food.Hey, it's really no different from a bandit, and I don't know how Lin Ruhai was raised, how Lin Ze developed such a temperament.

"This Xue family is really a nouveau riche." Counting the banknotes in his hand, it's strange that there are a total of thirty or forty thousand taels.Look at the things in that little box again, oops, there are still some antique calligraphy and paintings.It really doesn't look like something the Xue family has.

Shui Rong followed his gaze and saw that there was a copybook in the box, which was Song Huizong's calligraphy in Song and Jin styles, so he smiled and said: "This Xue family is a bit elegant, although it is from a merchant, I heard that their family The girl also has something interesting."

Lin Ze snorted coldly, and when Shui Rong looked at him, he smiled and said: "Which big family has a girl who is not raised in a deep boudoir, is it possible that there are girls who take out girls all day long to talk about?"

Shui Rong smiled and said: "Hey, you don't know, there is a Jia Baoyu in Jia's family. It is said that he was born with jade in his mouth and has a great fortune. But I don't think so, I met him once when I went out in Weifu , listening to him and Feng Tang's son talk about the sisters in the family, that's a no-brainer."

When Lin Ze heard this, his face became a little ugly.This big-mouthed Jia Baoyu really does not make people feel at ease!

Glancing at Shui Rong, Lin Ze said with a half-smile, "What? Have you taken a fancy to the girl from the Xue family?"

Shui Rong spat at him with a smile, and then said: "Then what's wrong with the girl from the Xue family? I heard what Jia Baoyu said, that 'Sister Lin' is really stunning. Even if I am Mu Shaoai's age, I'm going to beg that 'Sister Lin' too." Saying that, she winked at Lin Ze without fear of death.

Lin Ze sneered, raised his hand to pick up Song Huizong's calligraphy, knocked it on Shui Rong's head, and scolded fiercely: "Just because you miss my sister,
