The Red House Returns the Pearl Lin's Home

After Hai Lancha left, Lin Lu took Lin Lin to walk around the street leisurely and leisurely, and bought a lot of small toys. Looking for it, I just went back home.

Before they leisurely returned to Jia's mansion, Xue Pan was carried back to Lixiangyuan. Aunt Xue cried a lot when she saw her son was bruised and out of shape. I also shed tears for a long time, and quickly called the boy who followed me to ask about the matter.

What can I say, that the uncle is not successful in molesting others, and he was beaten up?The young servants didn't dare to report the truth, they hesitated for a long time, and only reasoned that there was a quarrel with the population outside.

Aunt Xue hated her so much that she kept asking her again and again, and when she heard that the person who beat her was the boy from the Lin family who also lived in Jia's house, the evil fire in her heart couldn't be suppressed no matter what, she wanted to report the incident to her sister aggressively. shape.

It just so happened that Mother Jia heard the news and learned that Xue Pan was injured, so she sent someone to inquire because of her affection. Xue Pan is the only son of Aunt Xue. After being beaten up like this this time, Aunt Xue heard her son's wailing and screaming, how could she swallow this breath, her heart was torn apart, she grabbed the sent Amber and kept crying Ask Jia Mu to give their orphans and widows justice.

Jia's mother was sitting on the couch joking with her three granddaughters, Li Wan and Lin Daiyu. Wang Xifeng was accompanying her, and Xue Baochai was there.

Mother Jia didn't take it seriously at first, but after waiting for no one to come back for a long time, she knew that she was seriously injured, so she hurriedly sent Hu Po over to have a look, and ordered Mrs. Wang of the Yuanyang branch to take the post from the house to invite the imperial doctor.

Unexpectedly, Amber also went away for a long time and didn't come back. Wang Xifeng told a joke and made everyone laugh. Jiamu faintly heard the noise and crying outside. She thought it was the maids arguing. Her face sank and she asked, "Outside What's the matter, when the New Year's Eve is approaching, instead of talking about being happy and wishing auspiciousness, there is such a commotion? Which little girl is so naughty and ignorant?"

Wang Xifeng has always been a smart person in every way, seeing the old lady's face is not good, she hastily went out to see it herself, when she saw Aunt Xue crying and seeing Xue Baochai crying, she was also taken aback, and hurried up to meet her and said: " What's the matter, but brother Xue is seriously injured? The old lady has ordered someone to call for the imperial doctor, aunt and sister, please rest assured."

After waiting patiently for a while, I saw that the mother and daughter were just crying, and they were about to go inside while crying. How could Wang Xifeng dare to let it go? Eighty, but she can't bear to be frightened and noisy. If something bad happens, she is a junior, so she can't afford such a crime.

So he supported Aunt Xue's arm and tried hard secretly, and he kept persuading her, not telling her to go in rashly, and winking at Hu Po.

Amber naturally saw it and understood what she meant, but she had been there for so long and only heard howling and crying, and she really didn't get much definite information. After thinking for a while, he whispered: "Second Grandma Lian, I found out that it seems to be related to the uncle of the Lin family, Second Master Lin."

What, could it be that the two of the Lin family beat Xue Pan?Wang Xifeng was stunned again, knowing that there must be a reason for this, she immediately stopped asking Aunt Xue what happened to Xue Pan, and comforted her with kind words for a while, seeing that she had calmed down a little, she led her in.

They waited for such a long time, Mother Jia had already heard something wrong with the voice outside, when she saw someone coming in, she squinted her eyes, and said with [-] points of surprise: "What's wrong with my aunt?"

Seeing that all the juniors were there, Aunt Xue's face turned red, she didn't know how to speak for a moment, she just thought of her son's miserable appearance, and didn't care about his ugly face, so she wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "I won't hide it from the old lady, we The old lady also knows what Pan'er is like in normal times, she is the most gentle and courteous, but now he can't get out of bed, and his leg bones are broken. Looking at his current appearance, I wish I could die with him! "

Jiamu glanced sideways at Wang Xifeng's face at this time, saw her embarrassed expression with hesitation, felt that this seemed unusual, not just the accident where Xue Pan was beaten, doubts suddenly arose in her heart, and her face was still very serious. Concerned, but also brought out unconcealed anger: "Auntie, calm down, everyone in the whole family knows what kind of person Pan'er is, who would want to cause such a disaster, and which family is so frivolous, How dare you hit someone?"

Wang Xifeng winked at her again and again, seeing that she finally asked this question, her heart sank, she stopped speaking now, and stood still behind Jiamu.

Aunt Xue opened her mouth, but before she could make a sound, Xue Baochai had already stepped forward, and said softly with red eyes: "Forget it, mother, after all, it's a relationship with relatives. It doesn't hurt to say it. The old lady and uncle and aunt If they don’t know it, it’s hard for them to do it, so why bother?”

When Jia's mother heard this, she sneered, Xue Baochai's words were very skillful, she didn't ask Aunt Xue to tell her what she said, but in fact she was urging her in disguise to make decisions for them.

However, Mother Jia did not show any displeasure in her heart, she just glanced at Xue Baochai with a little anger, and said sternly: "Bao girl, what are you talking about, my concubine only has your brother and you two precious bumps, now your brother is being killed by someone. Hit, not to mention my aunt, my old lady is also distressed, just tell whoever hit you, and I can't spare him!"

Aunt Xue was just waiting for her words, and seeing that she finally said it, she couldn't care less about anything else, and yelled, "It was the old lady's two grandsons who beat my Pan'er!"

When this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Wang Xifeng had inquired about it from Hu Po before, but now she still pretended to know it for the first time, and she was also surprised. She paused and looked at Jia Mu. Seeing that she was still calm, she immediately understood, and hurriedly said: "Auntie, you can ask about it." Clearly, Auntie and Sister Bao can also see how Cousin Lin is doing on a daily basis. He is not a bad guy who is fighting fiercely. , and didn’t catch the murderer, so he was afraid of taking the responsibility, so he made it up casually?”

Lin Daiyu also said in a soft voice: "How can brother act like this, Mrs. Xue don't misunderstand..."

Combined with Lin Lu's sudden hostility towards Xue Baochai in the morning, she had a faint understanding in her heart, and she also knew that Lin Lu and Lin Lin were all daring people, and she knew that Xue Pan's beating was probably due to them this time.

When Aunt Xue heard it, she felt that the words of these people were quite reckless, and her crying instantly rose a full octave.

Xue Baochai kept on crying, and it took a long time to sob and say: "The servant who followed me said it himself. My mother and I didn't believe it, so I asked again and again. Seven or eight servants all said the same thing. It's really not true. I don't know what to do, so I have to come to my ancestors to seek justice..."

Mother Jia couldn't help it, so she called Amber and said, "Go and ask someone, where is my grandson?

He also comforted Xue's mother and daughter with good words: "If it is really found out that the two of them did it mischievously, I will give my aunt an explanation. Although I am old, I am not confused, so don't worry, my aunt."

Hu Po came back after going there this time, with a bit of hesitation on his face, and replied: "Uncle Lin and Er Ye went out at noon today, and he hasn't come back yet, but the second master and the wife have both passed, and the second master has already passed away." Let people go find them."

As soon as Jia's mother heard it, she knew that it was Mrs. Wang who heard the news and ran to complain to Jia Zheng. With Jia Zheng's temper, she must be furious and ran to question and scold Jia Zheng herself.

She sighed secretly, knowing that the matter could not be suppressed, and seeing that the girls in the room were a little panicked, she hurriedly gave Li Wan a wink and told her to take all the girls away.

Xue Baochai is the master of suffering, so of course she will not leave. Lin Daiyu also said: "Since I have something to do with my elder brother and younger brother, grandma will let Yu'er stay."

Mother Jia thought for a while, but before she could express her opinion, a little maid outside informed the Second Master and Second Wife that they were coming.

Jia Zheng was so angry that he couldn't understand clearly. He barely suppressed his anger and greeted Jia's mother. Then he looked at his wife's sister and niece, and saw that their eyes were swollen from crying. Thinking about how pitiful orphans and widows are, he said guiltily: "It's because I'm not strict in discipline. When I find out about Gong Yuziyu, if there is such a thing, I will have to worry about it!"

"We also don't want to believe that the two young masters of the Lin family could have done this, but thinking about the number of people in the capital, why did the boys bite them out?" Aunt Xue said while wiping away her dirty tears. .

Mrs. Wang persuaded: "Sister, calm down. The imperial doctor has already seen the nephew. Although the injury is serious, as long as it is carefully recuperated, it is expected to be fine. However, such unhealthy tendencies cannot be encouraged. Play hard and play hard." It's on my family's head, and the Lin family has done too much, let alone my sister, seeing Pan'er's situation at this time, I feel very uncomfortable..."

She wiped her tears with a handkerchief as she spoke, and quietly covered the corners of her lips that could not stop rising. Although Xue Pan is her nephew, to be honest, she doesn't have deep feelings for him. It depends on Jia Zheng's reaction at this time. However, it was worth it in her opinion to use this to give the Lin family brothers some color.

The last time Lin Lu severely humiliated her in front of so many people, that bitter and mean Lin Daiyu seduced her Baoyu every day and didn't think about making progress. Mrs. Wang thought about the disdain in the corners of Lin Lin's eyes and eyebrows. I hated these three people to death.

Mrs. Wang looked at Lin Daiyu in a blink of an eye, and seeing Mother Jia hugging her affectionately was still very protective, she said: "Lin girl, our treasure girl is usually the most gentle and courteous, and you get along well, why do you turn around and scream?" Why did your brother do such an asshole?"

These words were clearly accusing Lin Daiyu of instigating Lin Lu and Lin Lin to beat Xue Pan. Jia Zheng frowned and looked at Jia Mu's kang.

Lin Daiyu's eyes were also red, and she retorted without showing any weakness when she heard the words: "I'm afraid the second aunt has made a mistake. Since ancient times, women have three obediences and four virtues, and only follow the father and brother. How can there be any reason for a younger sister to discipline an elder brother? Brothers naturally have their own ways." His thinking, what can I understand as a boudoir daughter's family?"

After a pause, she ignored Mrs. Wang's bluish face, only looked at Jia Zheng, and continued: "Furthermore, if you listen to both, you will be enlightened, and if you listen to only one, you will be dark. Brother and younger brother have not come back, and we have not yet learned what happened. Maybe there is something hidden in this? Mrs. Xue also said just now, why are there so many people in the capital, and the boys don’t bite others, but they just bit out my brother, my niece is not talented, I would like to ask, why are there so many people in the capital , No one else was beaten, but the elder brother of the Xue family was beaten?"

Lin Daiyu looked very much like Jia Min who had passed away, and what's more, what she said made some sense. Jia Zheng looked at her in silence for a long while, and finally sighed: "Shut up, we will discuss it after the two nephews come back and ask clearly."

In all fairness, Jia Zheng doesn't have much affection for these two groups of people. Xue Pan is used to causing trouble, and Lin Lu is not much better. Because of his background, he also thinks that "everything is inferior, only reading is high", so he has a bit of disdain for martial arts.

But after all, the Lin family is slightly better. After all, Lin Lu's nonsense is nonsense, and she has never bullied others to cause a death. Moreover, Xue Pan is only the blood relative of Mrs. Wang, and Jia Min is Jia Zheng's only sister. The two got along with each other when they were young. It's also quite good, Jia Zheng has a passion for the Lin family after all.

It's just that Jia Zheng prided himself on being a gentleman and would not be biased. Besides, Xue Pan was really hurt this time. No matter how biased he was, he still needed to explain to the Xue family, so he was full of anger and planned to teach the Lin brothers a lesson.

A group of people waited for nearly an hour before they heard the little maid tremblingly report that Uncle Lin and Second Master Lin had returned.

Jia Zheng waited for this for a long time, and the original seven-point anger had already risen to ten-tenths. Seeing that Lin Lu was still smiling and saying hello to the elders, without any guilt, the invisible fire in his heart burned even more vigorously, and said angrily: "Say, did you go out to the streets today?"

Lin Lu froze for a moment, looking very surprised, looked at Mother Jia, and said, "We just came back from the street. Didn't uncle send someone out to find us? Why do you ask such a question again?"

Jia Zheng choked for a moment. He naturally knew the answer to the question just now, but he wanted to put on airs as an uncle, so the interrogation naturally couldn't be too straightforward. It had to be done step by step and deep in depth. Lin Lu asked him directly. When I came back, I saw that the surprise on his face did not seem to be fake, and he didn't know how to answer the words for a while, and he was very embarrassed.

Originally all the people in power in Jia's mansion were present, and Mrs. Jia's mother Wang didn't speak. It was not Wang Xifeng's turn to speak at this time. Stop talking, and answer the master's question first."

Lin Lu made a look of sudden realization, nodded and admitted straightforwardly: "That's right, my brother and I went out for a trip today."

"Did you meet Pan'er? Did you start a quarrel with him?" Jia Zheng asked with a dark face.

Lin Lu was stunned again, touched her bald forehead, and made another expression of sudden understanding: "So you're looking for me this time because of Xue Pan's business?"

Without waiting for Jia Zheng to speak, he patted his chest, let out a long breath, and said with a relaxed and joyful expression, "I'm scared to death, your nephew thinks he's done something rebellious by putting on such a big front. So it was because of this? Then you are asking the wrong person, it was not me who beat him, but my brother."

Is there any essential difference between what you fight and what your brother fights?Seeing that there was no guilt on his face for his younger brother beating a relative, but a little gloating, Jia Zheng was so angry that his heart was trembling, but now is not the time to get angry, and everything has to be settled after asking, so he took a deep breath , forced himself to suppress his anger, and looked at Lin Lin in a blink of an eye: "Is what he said true?"

"That's right, I beat him." Lin Lin didn't deny it either, and sneered, "You're so mean-spirited, full of dirty words, and I came up to beat him by myself. I taught him a lesson."

Jia Zheng was choked again. He was so confident after beating someone. He wondered how his brother-in-law, who was always gentle and courteous, could teach these two sons, one was tricky and weird, and the other was cold-blooded.

Sure enough, Aunt Xue quit immediately. If you hit someone, you can hit someone. How can you still have such an attitude with your nostrils upturned after the beating? She doesn't take the Xue family seriously, so she hugged Xue Baochai crying, beat her chest and screamed. Said: "Master, master, why did you leave so early, leaving us orphans and widows to be bullied like this!"

He stretched out his hand to grab Lin Lin again, "Pan'er has been a single seedling all my life, if there is something good or bad about Pan'er, I don't want to live anymore... You guys are too bullying, just look at us and have no one to back you, so you blindly bully me , Master, open your eyes and see, Master, your two sons and daughters make people look like ghosts, someone stabbed my heart with a knife, I don’t want to live anymore, I don’t want to live anymore!” It was crying so loudly that he could hardly breathe, and was about to fall over while twitching.

Wang Xifeng rushed over to support her, pinched her, and even ordered the servant girl to prepare ginseng soup.

What are you pumping for? The hand is still holding on to the monk tightly. She is so strong that she doesn't look like someone who is about to faint. Seeing that Aunt Xue's eyelids are trembling, Lin Lu knows that she is definitely faking it. Debunking, just watching the fun from the sidelines.

Lin Lin looked at the hand tightly clasping her wrist, and used her right index and middle fingers to take out a copper plate from the kit, flicked it lightly, and hit her elbow.

Aunt Xue only felt that half of her arm was numb, unable to exert any strength, her hand loosened unconsciously.Since she couldn't grab the little bastard who was bullying Pan'er, she didn't have the will to faint, and struggled to stand up straight.

Mrs. Wang helped her younger sister pat her chest to calm her down, and took the opportunity to say: "Sister, what are you talking about? Whoever it is, there is no reason to bully us. Since the master makes decisions for your mother and daughter, after such disheartening words Don't mention it again."

Jia Zheng was disturbed by such things. Seeing the Xue family's mother and daughter in pain, and seeing Lin Lu's warm smile and Lin Lin's iceberg poker face, he got angry and ordered: "Take the expert Take out the French guy!"

The servant at the door had already expected such an event, and hastily handed over the wooden sticks he had prepared earlier.

Lin Lu's heart trembled, thinking that Lin Ruhai used to beat him often with a board, and now when he touched his buttocks, he still felt a dull pain, so he hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute!"

Jia Zheng laughed angrily: "Why, your father and mother have gone. As an uncle, don't I still care about you? It is unrighteous for you to hurt your relatives; it is inhumane for you to be so vicious; Your Excellency, being rude to Mrs. Xue is out of filial piety - such an unrighteous, unkind and unfilial thing should be killed as soon as possible!"

"Isn't uncle even willing to listen to us? There must be a reason for what happened. Otherwise, uncle thought that someone had been beaten in the capital, so why weren't we arrested and imprisoned by the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture?" Lin Lu said at the same time. While pushing Lin Lin with his hands, Jia Zheng's words were too classic. He had watched countless TV dramas, and he would definitely be able to laugh out loud in the usual way, but at this time, he couldn't care less.

The latter was pushed three times in a row, and finally got impatient. He raised his hand and easily stopped the stick that Jia Zheng raised with all his strength, and said lazily: "Master Jia has thought clearly. If the stick falls, I have rough skin and thick flesh, but I am not afraid, if my brother is hurt, it will not be very pleasant to spread the name of this peerless heir."

When Jia Zheng heard that Lin Lu had deliberately or unintentionally raised the governor of Shuntian Mansion, and heard that Lin Lin suppressed it with morality, he was shocked, and his anger rushed out along the Tianling cover. His sanity was three points clear, and he had hesitated. It's not easy to repent immediately, so he still held up the stick and asked calmly: "Then tell me, what's going on?"

"It was Xue Pan who was rude to my younger brother first, ambiguous and entangled in his mouth, which annoyed people for no reason, and then he started to attack my younger brother. He was no longer serious, and my younger brother got angry." Lin Lu bluntly. Staring at Jia Zheng's face, seeing that he heard an undisguised strange expression on his face behind him, full of disgust and disgust, he knew that he had understood the meaning, and immediately closed his mouth without making a sound.

Since Jia Zheng prides himself on being a gentleman, he has to use the code of conduct of a gentleman to restrain himself on weekdays. He has always hated masculinity. Although he had heard Xue Pan messing around outside, he didn't expect that the other party would hit his relatives. , Immediately, it was like swallowing a fly alive, and I wanted to vomit.

Compared with Xue Pan's behavior, Jia Zheng felt that Lin Lin's behavior was not so rude.

Mother Jia has lived to such an advanced age, she has never seen any nasty things, and she understands Lin Lu's vague words. Looking at the female relatives present, except for Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai who are ignorant, only Aunt Xue is still crying , Mrs. Wang bowed her head to recite the Buddha, Wang Xifeng's red lips were slightly parted, and her face was pale. These three people obviously understood.

"Even so, we Pan'er have always been confused, why did we do such a cruel thing?" Although Aunt Xue was embarrassing, seeing that Lin Lin hadn't damaged a single hair, she thought of her son lying on the bed, and hated her again.

"Joke, it's his business whether he is confused or not. I have no obligation to tolerate him. If you don't reflect on yourself for not teaching your son well, you will turn around and blame me for not forgiving him?" Lin Lin slightly raised her neck, her eyes were dark , with a proud expression, "I think this is the first time, I just broke his leg, and next time, I'll just break his neck!"

Lin Lu chimed in and said, "My ancestor of the Lin family was the twelfth lord when he was Emperor Shizong, and he was an official for five generations. He has been a scholar for many generations. How can he be insulted by a merchant like this? If Mrs. Xue refuses to accept it, let's go to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion. , I want to see if Lord Yin of Shuntian Prefecture will sentence my younger brother to hurt people in the street, or sentence your family Xue Pan to be insulting and gentle!"

Jia Zheng's face turned green and pale, and after hearing such wild words, he wanted to scold them, but he really despised Xue Pan's behavior. Looking at his mother who also had a bad face, he felt that he had lost his face this time. Ugly, stomped his feet, gave Mrs. Wang a hard look, and walked away angrily.

Jia's mother also felt a headache. Seeing Xue's mother and daughter making an embarrassing scene, the two men of the Lin's family were still as normal as they were, and each said a few words of comfort to them, telling them to break up.
