[Red Mansion + Martial Arts] The Virgin Strikes

"Nephew doesn't dare." Qian Xiaoqiao sneered, this time he had to go if he didn't.Mrs. Wang's plan was shrewd. When she heard that they were leaving, she didn't play tricks to keep people, but started with Xue Pan instead.Xue Pan went to their Jia family's school to study, so how could the three members of Xue's family not live in Jia's house?Qian Xiaoqiao gritted her teeth with hatred, if anyone dared to say "Second Wife is kind" in front of her in the future, she would immediately chop him off.

"Since I agree, I'm relieved." Mrs. Wang asked Aunt Xue to play cards at Jiamu's place, and happily patted her butt and left.

Baochai understands elder brother's difficulties and stays here to comfort him.

"It's okay for us to wait any longer."

Qian Xiaoqiao gritted his teeth and sneered: "Come on, we've given enough to live this time, there will be times when they regret it!"

Qian Xiaoqiao caught a small spy that day, and threw it to Yazi to sell him to Mongolia.This move made an example of others, and shocked the servants of Lixiangyuan to live their lives with a knife hanging over their heads, and they dare not speak too much in the future.

Early the next morning, Qian Xiaoqiao hid in the house after breakfast to settle accounts, thinking about ways to make money and accumulate wealth.Baoyu came suddenly and asked him to go to school with him.

Qian Xiaoqiao was even more upset. In the past, Xue Pan went to Jia's Academy casually every day, and no one cared about him. How could she be forced like this?People with younger generations have limitations in doing things, so Qian Xiaoqiao had no choice but to go to school with a stack of ledgers.

Once there, Qian Xiaoqiao put his legs on the table and leaned over to look at the account book.The masters had heard about Uncle Xue's reputation, so naturally they didn't dare to say more, besides, his servants would give them benefits afterwards.

In the school, there are really two beautiful young men nicknamed Xiang Lian Yu Ai who have their eyes on Xue Pan. The two of them are in love with Xue Pan, and because they see the Xue family's generosity, they like Uncle Xue even more. Because of Uncle Xue's cold air, he dared not approach him.

The relationship between Baoyu and Qin Zhong has always been good, but Qin Zhong's attention was distracted by Xue Pan's arrival.Qin Zhong also liked to look at Xue Pan for some reason, and even when he was alone with Baoyu, he would ask questions about Xue Pan from time to time.

Baoyu was a bit jealous, and after secretly comparing with Xue Pan in his heart, he felt that he was inferior to him in everything, so that he felt ashamed every time he saw Xue Pan.Gradually, he didn't dare to see him anymore, and the words Mrs. Wang told him to pick up Xue Pan from class every day were forgotten.

Qian Xiaoqiao finally had some free time, and coincidentally, the test of Li Qing's character was just released there, and there were basically no problems, so Qian Xiaoqiao decided to meet Li Qing in person for a while.

Rejuvenation Hall, the capital branch of the Xue family.

Li Qing, who was wearing plain clothes, came in and asked the waiter in the shop to weigh him six taels of wild ginseng.

"My lord, six taels of wild ginseng is good, and the total is 120 five taels of silver."

Li Qing frowned: "120 five taels? You only sold 70 taels two days ago."

"Yesterday, a high-ranking official bought more than a hundred catties of wild ginseng from a small shop. The remaining stock in the small shop is not much. Right now, when the wild ginseng is in short supply, the price can only be raised, and even this price is about to be robbed. Master, do you want this wild ginseng or not?"

"Yes!" Li Qing said firmly, and he handed all the broken silver in his purse to the waiter. "I'll pay half of it first, you keep the things for me, and I'll go home and get the rest of the money."

The waiter hesitated for a long time, seeming unsure of paying attention, so Li Qing hurriedly begged him.The shop waiter finally pouted towards the inner hall, Li Qing followed his pointer and saw a handsome young man sitting in the inner hall, with a proud demeanor and extremely luxurious clothes.Li Qing knew that he was the young master, so he stepped forward and told the young man about his difficulties.

The young man smiled, and there was a bit of warmth in his icy eyes. "What's so difficult about it, just take the things first, and I'll go get the rest of the money with you."

"Are you going back with me?" Li Qing looked at him slightly surprised.

"Why, do you want to renege on your debt?"

Li Qing explained with a smile: "No, no, I see that you are dressed in rich and noble clothes, and you must be pampered. How can I ask you to run errands with me to get money."

"I'm the only one idle here, so I'll go naturally." Qian Xiaoqiao smiled at him with crooked eyes, she thought he was not bad.

Hearing this, Li Qing expected that he was unusual, and secretly sighed in his heart: So he is not some playboy!

Qian Xiaoqiao followed Li Qing through Jiutiao Street, spent half an hour, and finally came to the slightly dilapidated Li Mansion.The paint on the vermilion door has long since peeled off, and weeds grow sparsely on the walls and roofs.Entering the house, there is something different about it, it is clean and tidy, the flowers and plants planted are not expensive, but they grow luxuriantly, the furnishings in the house are simple and quiet, with a bit of a dusty smell.It can be seen from this that although the owner of this house is not rich, he also tried his best to keep the things left by his ancestors.

The spirit is commendable!

Qian Xiaoqiao's impression of Li Qing improved, and he followed Li Qing to the study.Li Qing asked the servant girl to serve him tea, while he went to the back room to get money.Qian Xiaoqiao sipped his tea slowly, his cup of tea was almost finished, but Li Qing still didn't come out.Qian Xiaoqiao raised his eyebrows and looked at the little maid, who immediately understood, smiled and asked him to wait, and then went into the room to call the master.After a while, Qian Xiaoqiao saw Li Qing with an embarrassed face holding a scroll of drawing.

Li Qing apologized to Qian Xiaoqiao in embarrassment: "Forgive me Mr. Xue, I am too shy to collect the money for a while, I would like to use this painting to offset it temporarily, and I will definitely come to redeem it when I receive my salary next month. "

"Your century-old family can't come up with dozens of taels of silver. Brother Li is joking." Qian Xiaoqiao took the painting, didn't open it, and said: "The price of your painting is about a few hundred catties of wild ginseng. I'm not afraid that I'll rely on you?"

Li Qing was ridiculed by the other party at first, and his face was a bit embarrassed. Later, he heard that Mr. Xue knew the value of the painting without looking at it.

"The wood for your scroll is century-old huanghuali wood. Such a small piece costs at least a hundred taels of silver. Who would use this good wood with a piece of rough paper?"

"Brother Xue is really well-informed. Yes, this painting is "Summer Mountain Dwelling" by Wang Meng of the Yuan Dynasty. It is indeed very valuable. It's just that this painting was passed down by Shizu. Even if I die, I can't sell him. Because benefactor wants to recuperate and take medicine, he has to temporarily mortgage it to Mr. Xue.” Li Qing was worried that Xue Pan would buy this painting because he was so knowledgeable, so he hurriedly blocked the conversation in advance.

Wang Meng, one of the four Yuan families? "Good painting!" Qian Xiaoqiao couldn't help unfolding the painting excitedly to see the authenticity of the ancient objects. If this painting is brought back to modern times, she will become a billionaire.In the era of the Red Chamber, this painting was also worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.

"Forget it, betting such an expensive painting of yours for 50 taels of silver, I'm afraid I'll lose my life." Qian Xiaoqiao rolled up the painting and returned it to Li Qing.

"I believe in Mr. Xue's character." Li Qing and Xue Pan rejected it a few times, and when they saw each other's insistence, they put away the painting with a smile, and when he looked at Xue Pan again, his eyes flickered with unclear emotions.

"On the way just now, brother Li said that he bought the medicine to save Mr. En, can you take me to have a look?"

Li Qing nodded, and led Xue Pan to the West Wing. As soon as the two of them reached the door, a man's groan/groan came from the room.Qian Xiaoqiao raised the corners of her mouth unconsciously, and when the maid in the room opened the door, she and Li Qing went in, and saw Laiwang lying on the bed half dead.When Laiwang saw his master coming, he immediately acted surprised.

"Why, do you know each other?" Li Qing looked at Xue Pan in surprise.

"My valet, I haven't seen you for a few days, so I'm hiding here." Qian Xiaoqiao asked Li Qing what happened.

"I met robbers on the lower road the day before yesterday, and it was this little brother who sacrificed his life to save him. He accidentally broke his leg, so I took him home for medical treatment. The doctor I invited said that he needed to eat more wild ginseng to replenish his body... "

Qian Xiaoqiao raised her eyebrows and smiled, and interrupted Li Qing's words. She directed the matter, so she naturally knew it had passed. "Brother Li is really troublesome to take care of him. I will ask someone to carry him back. As for how much he ate, I will pay you all."

"It's not good, it's me—"

"Brother Li, why be polite, my family does not lack this. But Brother Li still has a younger brother to take care of him, besides, the Imperial Academy is a Qingshui yamen, and Brother Li's salary is not much."

Li Qing was slightly taken aback, then smiled and bowed to thank him. "Then it will cause trouble for Brother Xue."

"I'm a businessman, and everyone in the world says we're only looking out for profit. Let me put it bluntly. Is it not good for Brother Li to help others regardless of himself? Your family will be ruined sooner or later." Qian Xiaoqiao's request can Higher, the heart must be kind, but not too kind. The so-called chivalry who disregards family members in order to help others is also selfish. She doesn't like it, let alone hand Baochai to such a person.

"Brother Laiwang is kind to me, so I naturally want to repay him. As for other people who have nothing to do with it, I should do what I can; frankly speaking, it is good that Li can take care of himself in the current situation, and people who have nothing to do with it are really powerless. " Li Qing answered fluently.

Qian Xiaoqiao nodded, feeling that Li Qing's answer was not bad, and left immediately.Li Qing handed him off until Xue Pan disappeared, and then he entered the room, shaking his head helplessly, with an embarrassed smile on his lips.

After Laiwang was carried to the car, he swiftly took off the gauze wrapping his legs and moved his legs deftly. "Master, the doctor you hired is too real. He wrapped my legs three times. It's so hot that I'm so hot." After Laiwang complained, he saw his uncle staring at him all the time. , Laiwang was frightened by the stare, moved his body to avoid it, and found that the uncle's eyes were still in the same place, so he knew that he was distracted.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Qian Xiaoqiao came back to his senses, rubbed his chin with his hands and thought, "This guy is too smart, or is our play too lame?"
