Red Mansions I am Aunt Xue

Xue Qian rushed back to Jinling day and night, and went to Xue Xun's courtyard without resting.As soon as he arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, he heard a woman shouting and scolding from inside.

Frowning, he stopped and asked sideways, "What's going on with your master? And who is serving the second master here, so loudly? Your wife doesn't care?"

The person being questioned was the old housekeeper of Xue Xun's mansion. He was originally someone who was needed by Mrs. Xue's side.Before Xue's mother died, she was afraid that her second son would suffer if she left, so she gave him to Xue Xun to take care of him.

Xue Xun originally liked the idea of ​​talented scholars and beautiful ladies, and Xue Qian was suppressing him in Jinling, so he didn't dare to do anything.It's just that Xue Qian and his family have gone to the capital in the past few years, so how can they bear it.In a few days, the "confidantes" who made friends were taken to various fireworks places, and then even took in several beautiful concubines.The old housekeeper is a servant after all, so how can he control him.

When I met Xue Qian for questioning, he said: "Second master is weak in nature, and he has worked hard every day for the past few years. Even his body made of iron can't stand it! The doctor said that he might not succeed. My wife fainted when she heard the bad news. In the past, this meeting is also sick in bed. As for the person inside, it is Aunt Wang. The wife has been ill for the past few days, and it is Aunt Wang who is taking care of the master."

Glancing at the fine old man, Xue Qian remained silent.Although others are in the capital, they should know most of the things in Jinling.Overworked?snort!Finding fun every day is not hard work.It's just that their brothers have already separated, so he can only write occasionally to mention things.But Xue Xun is always yin and yang, and he naturally doesn't want to care about it after a long time.

After entering the room, squinting and snorting, the harsh voices in the room stopped immediately.Aunt Wang had never met Xue Qian, but she knew that there were not many people who could keep the old housekeeper so respectful, at least in Jinling City, she could count them on her fingers.She was not stupid to be able to take care of family affairs when Mrs. Xue Li was ill.

Seeing that the old housekeeper did not treat this man as alienated as others, he thought about the time to send the letter to Beijing.With a wink, he guessed who it was.

The old steward Wuxu said, he approached him courteously and said with a smile: "I have seen the first master, the second master is awake now, I know you are coming to see him, I may be very happy."

"Go and send someone to see if the second wife is better. If you really can't get up, go to the ancestral house and ask Nanny Lin to come over and help with the house first." As soon as Xue Qian said this, Aunt Wang turned pale.Is this going to take away the housekeeping power from her?But she looked at Xue Qian's face, but she didn't dare to argue.

And the person Aunt Wang scolded in the outer room just now was Baoqin.She is several years younger than Baochai, but she is born of Baiwei.When Bai Wei gave birth to her, she passed away due to dystocia, so Xue Xun carried her to Xue Li's courtyard and recorded it under her name to raise her.This time he timidly stepped forward, saluted, called his uncle in a low voice, and said no more.

Nodding his head slightly, he stopped looking at Bao Qin's cautious appearance, and stepped into the inner room.After all, he is a family member, and Xiao Ning is not around, so it is really hard for him as an elder brother to take care of him.It would be much better when Nanny Lin came.As soon as Pu entered the door, he saw the frail but healthy Xue Xun lying on the bed with a pale complexion and half-closed eyes.Sitting on the edge of the bed was a brother about eight or nine years old, who was carefully feeding the medicine.Although we haven't seen each other for two years, Xue Qian still recognizes that this is his nephew Xue Bian.

"Brother?" Raising his hand to push away Xue Biaoshen's approaching hand, he propped himself up and called.

Xue Pan turned around and immediately put down the medicine bowl.Kowtow to pay respects, "Nephew pays respects to uncle."

"Get up." After a little help, he said with a cold face: "Since you are not well, just lie down and don't move around. The tadpoles go out first, and let everyone outside go down by the way."

No one knows what the two brothers talked about in the house, only that Mr. Xue came out with a pale face.Then he didn't stay in the mansion any longer, so he went back to the ancestral house.

"Ahem... the Elder Master really ordered it that way?" Xue Lishi took a big breath, and then said it smoothly.She gave birth to a child in the early years and fell to some roots of illness, and then she got a cold back and didn't take care of it. The chest tightness and shortness of breath have never stopped.

He was helped to lean on him halfway, and said with a smile: "It must be true, the elder is the most disciplined person. Now that he is back, how can he pay attention to the matter of favoring concubines and destroying wives." Then he laughed out loud, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

In fact, Xue Xun didn't change until after Xue Qian and others came to Beijing. As early as before Bai Wei passed away in dystocia, Xue Xun had become more indifferent to her.But she really didn't attack Bai Wei, why doesn't the master believe it?Thinking back on this, she thought of Bai Wei who wouldn't let her live in peace after death, and when she thought of Bai Wei, she thought of Xiao Xue Ning who lived a very happy life.

"Have you sent someone to inform my aunt about the elder master's return?" Seeing the grandmother nodding, Xue Lifang lay back, "The aunt will come later, bring me here first."

Speaking of Xue Yu, Zheng Jiaming did not dare to treat her badly because of the greatness of Xue's family.Even in these years, she only had two sisters, and no one in her husband's family could surpass her.It's just that she is now in Zheng's family, so she is left as the main wife.

Her husband, Zheng Wenbo, took a concubine when she gave birth to her first sister, and soon gave birth to his eldest son.The mother-in-law who was kind to her before changed her face in a blink of an eye.When she went to talk to her husband, he coaxed her at first, but then brought women into the mansion one by one.

It's not that Xue Yu went back to Xue's mansion to beg, but Xue Qianxue Ning didn't care too much.Firstly, Xue Yu couldn't give birth to a son, and secondly, Xue Ning taught her a few methods, but Xue Yu didn't agree with them all, and also looked like you were so sinister, which made Xue Ning angry.

Up to now, Xue Yu actually regrets not listening to Xiao Ning's words.And after being trained by the group of women in Zheng Wenbo's backyard, she felt that what Xue Ning taught her was pediatrics.It's just that when she understands, it's useless to regret.

This is how people are. When you are not doing well, you will feel uncomfortable when someone is doing better than you.Besides, Xue Yu felt a little bit resentful towards Xiao Ning in her heart, wondering why she didn't persuade her more.What if she and her elder brother tried their best to dissuade her from marrying into the Zheng family?If she and her elder brother supported her earlier, Zheng Wenbo was not allowed to take a concubine?How could she be like this now!

Here Xue Yu took a carriage to Xue Xun's mansion, and Xue Qian also returned to his ancestral home here.After taking a bath and changing clothes, he took a rest and finally regained some energy.

In the evening, dinner has just been served.Someone outside came to report that the second wife was invited, thinking of Xue Xun's almost out of breath yesterday, he didn't care about eating, Xue Qian rushed over immediately.

Only to the main courtyard, the room where the second master stayed this morning.Seeing that there was no one in there, he rubbed his aching temples and said wearily, "Tell me, what's the matter?" If there is no problem, he is not Xue Qian.

"This... I don't know about the small ones. Why don't I ask the small ones"

Xue Qian frowned when he heard the words, and waved his hands, "No need." After saying that, he was about to shake his sleeves and leave, but found that his body suddenly lost strength, and suddenly raised his head to look at the servant, but there was no one there.

Not long after, a beautiful woman in a light veil flashed out from behind a screen, walking forward slowly.

"I met Master Xue."

In the East Wing, Xue Yu ate tea, and asked the maid who was close to her, "The people brought by the old master are all stuck?" Seeing her nodding, she said again: "Sister-in-law, you think you're going to be okay? "

"What can be the matter. How can there be a cat in this world that doesn't steal? Just wait for uncle to taste the skinny horse I bought from Yangzhou, and he will be full of emotions. It's too late to thank us, so why would he blame us?"

Speaking of Xiao Xiao who had read the letter, she had been sitting there without changing her position since she read it.It wasn't until Caiju entered the door that he came back to his senses.But when it was time for dinner, he sighed softly.

"I don't have any appetite, you all go down." Although she told herself to calm down, she only needed to wait for Xue Qian to return to Beijing to find out the truth, but a faint sadness flashed in her heart.

The two have been together day and night for so many years, so there is no need to talk about their feelings.Even if it's not a continuation of love, but the converted love similar to family affection is also a real feeling.

Xue Qiu, who received the letter at the same time, looked strange and gloomy for a while, then got up and went to Xue Ning courtyard.
