The sad reminder of the science man

Jia Baoyu was beaten here, and the Xue family knew it immediately. Hearing the report of Jia Baoyu's tragedy, he imagined Mrs. Wang's heartache. A little cheerful.

Xue Jia waved back the person who reported the letter, and raised his foot to find Xue Pan. He couldn't tell others, but Xue Pan knew that Xue Jia was in a good mood and wanted to share with someone, so he naturally went to Xue Pan.

Xue Jia knew that Xue Pan didn't go out today. When Xue Jia found Xue Pan, Xue Pan was writing a letter in his study. Xue Jia knocked on the door, and walked in without waiting for Xue Pan to call.

"Brother, do you know, I just got the news that our good cousin Jia Baoyu beat his uncle." Xue Chi's voice was full of joy.

Xue Pan put down his pen, "Well, what's the matter, what happened?"

Seeing that Xue Pan asked as he wished, Xue Jia raised his voice a little bit, "Brother, let me tell you, this Jia Baoyu is hiding in the study to read the story book, and that story book is still wrapped in the book cover of "Historical Records". My uncle found out that he had been beaten with a board."

Xue Pan nodded, "Well, you did it. Did you sweep the tail clean?"

Xue Chi was unhappy when he heard this, "I did it, it was Jia Baoyu who did something wrong, how could it be blamed on me, I haven't been to Jia's house for a long time, how could it be involved in me?"

Xue Pan looked at Xue Chi, stood up and patted Xue Chi's head, "Okay, I know you didn't do it, it's Jia Baoyu's own fault, right?"

Xue Chi nodded sharply after hearing this, "Well, that's right, that's right."

Xue Pan looked at Xue Chi with a righteous face, and didn't know whether to let him just like this or just say him, "Jia Baoyu is a trivial matter, even if he is injured, it will be fine in a few days. This is how you want to get revenge. Don't you It's too easy!"

Xue Jia thought for a while, and it seemed that it was true. Xue Jia hesitated, "Then what else can I do?"

Xu Pan sneered, picked up the pen again and started writing letters, but he kept talking, "I don't know who is more important in the eyes of uncles and aunts compared to cousins ​​and aunts?"

"Cousin, empress? Aren't this aunt and cousin mother and daughter? What's there to compare?" Xue Chi pulled a chair and sat down, asking doubtfully.

Xue Pan casually said: "Of course it's not the noble and virtuous concubine. I said it was Sister Feng. I heard my sister said that Sister Feng was almost killed by her aunt. I don't think Sister Feng is so open-minded. She wants us to be happy." It’s good if the aunt is busy. We have to help her realize that other people’s family affairs should be left alone, brother, don’t you think so?”

Xue Pan's voice was not loud, but it was very loud to Xue Jia's ears, but Xue Jia knew that Xue Pan would not harm this family, although he didn't know what he was going to do, but he still supported Xue Pan, "Uncle, aunt It must be Sister Yifeng, but it’s just that my cousin is a concubine, is this useful?”

"I don't care if it's useful or not. First, let the uncle and aunt have a gap in their hearts. Who can say what will happen in the future? Flowers can't be happy for a hundred days, and people can't be successful for a thousand days." Xue Pan's voice was cold.

Xue Chi nodded, and when he was about to say something, a servant's voice came from outside the door.

"Grandpa, Second Master, someone from the Jia family came to ask to see the wife, but the wife is not at home, so the big housekeeper asked Xiaolai to report to the uncle."

Xue Pan responded, "Well, I got it, take him to the living room, and I'll be there in a while." He blew on the letter paper, pressed it with a paperweight, and said to Xue Chi, "Let's go, I guess it's for Jia Baoyu came to ask for medicine when he was beaten, I remember you said that Jia Baoyu came here last time when he burned his face."

Xue Chi nodded, and followed Xue Pan out of the study, "Well, I don't know what's wrong with this Jia's family. Why did Jia Baoyu come to our house once to ask for medicine when he was injured? Didn't their family call the Duke's Mansion? Madam, why do you still come to our house to ask for a sore medicine, what do you think our house is, Shantang?"

Xue Pan glanced at Xue Chi, ignored him, and called a servant instead, "You guard the door for me, no one is allowed to enter this study."

Xue Pan brought Xue Chi to the living room. The person from the Jia family was Mrs. Wang accompanying her to Wang's house. Originally, Mrs. Wang wanted Zhou Rui's family to come, but Zhou Rui's family could clearly see that the Xue family did not like the Jia family these days. Just don't join in the fun.

Laiwang's family didn't say anything, just said that Jia Baoyu was injured, and he heard that Xue's family had good sore medicine, so he came here to ask for some, but this time the Jia's family didn't ask Xue Hao to see Jia Baoyu.

Xue Pan and Xue Jia sent away the Jia family, Xue Chi gloated and let go. He was a little troubled recently. Since Xue Pan got married, his marriage has also been put on the agenda, and the pre-wedding ceremony is almost completed. It's also decided, in February next year, there is still more than half a year left, Xue Chi is trying to figure out if he can meet the princess.

Xue Jia knew that if he told others about it, he would definitely be told about it. He also knew that this matter had been settled, and there was no room for change, but he just wanted to see if he could see him, so he wanted to break it these days. I scratched my head, but still couldn't figure out a way.Originally, I was thinking about what the son-in-law would come to, but in this era, and Xue Jiayue's family is so powerful, Xue Jia has nothing to do.Xue Jia was extremely anxious. For the past few days, Xue Jia was busy taking revenge on Mrs. Wang, which relieved his anxiety a little, but now that the result came out, his mind inevitably turned to thinking about meeting again.

Seeing Jia's family leave, Xue Pan glanced at Xue Chi, and found that he was still frowning, and asked, "What's the matter, what's the trouble?"

Xue Chi opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.

Seeing Xue Chi like this, Xue Pan knew he didn't want to talk about it, so he said, "You're going to the Ministry of Industry in a few days, are you ready?"

Xue Zhi also turned his attention when Xue Pan said something serious, "Well, master taught me to talk less and listen more. After all, I am not a serious imperial examination background, nor a formal official of the Ministry of Industry, but there is a walking man from the Ministry of Industry on my head." Name. According to Master, it is this name that allows me to borrow documents from the Ministry of Industry without going through Master, and I still have the opportunity to get in touch with technology."

Xue Pan nodded, because he knew Xue Chi's hobbies, "That's fine, then keep your mouth shut, maybe someone will make things difficult for you at first, but anyway, you are a future county matriarch, so I won't make you too ugly." When Pan said this, he remembered something, looked around, and saw that there were six or seven people away from Xue Pan and Xue Jia, Xue Pan approached Xue Jia, and whispered: "Brother, I guess the people behind you noticed it. "

It’s not that Xue Jia has never thought about this possibility since he received the imperial decree. Otherwise, for no reason, why did he give a marriage and go to the Ministry of Industry? He also asked his father and master, but they all told him not to think too much, just do it. Take care of your own affairs, now that Xue Pan mentioned it, he was not surprised, but he also said in a low voice, "Well, I know, it doesn't matter what father and master have said, just do what you should do. Brother, don't worry. "

Xue Pan thought for a while, then glanced at Xue Chi thoughtfully, "Since Dad said it, you do it. I heard that a reservoir will be built in the official hall. This is the first time I heard that this large reservoir will be built. I heard something about a small reservoir, but I don’t know if it’s true.” Then he glanced at Xue Chi again.

Xue Chi couldn't bear Xue Pan's gaze, coughed, "Really? It should be! This large reservoir can control the water flow more than the small and medium-sized reservoirs." Cheng Gong once told me about the large reservoir, and no one should do it during this time. Said, you must know that this large reservoir is led by Yang Gong.

Hearing what Xue Jia said, Xue Pan naturally knew that he didn't understand it. He saw that Xue Jia was not ignorant, so he put it down first, but instead said, "I can stay at home for less than a month, your sister-in-law I will also walk with me. Grandma is not at home, so you should take care of your home, don’t be as careless as before. There are still a few months until Qiu Wei. Parents want to find a husband’s house for Hao’er, and you too Pay attention, if you have a suitable candidate, remember to write to me."

Xue Jia agreed without thinking, "Isn't that natural? Brother, what do you think we should find for my sister?"

Xue Pan saw that Xue Chi was out of tune again, so he reprimanded lightly, "What are you thinking, the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, there is no need for you to intervene, wait until the parents are optimistic about the candidate, you go and check their family background, Character, behavior, etc."

Xue Chi grew up under the oppression of Xue Pan when he was a child. Now that he heard Xue Pan say this, he dare not say more, even if he wanted to meet the princess before, his thoughts have faded a lot. "Brother, I will. But I can always look first!"

Xue Pan didn't hit Xue Chi, but said, "My sister is no better than us. My sister is a woman. This husband's family must be found well. These days, it's not that no one comes to our house to propose marriage to my sister, but why do you think parents bother me?" No? I don’t believe that none of these people are willing to make progress.”

Xue Chi thought for a while, then tilted his head to look at Xue Pan, "Yes, why?"

Xue Pan was asked by Xue Chi like this, so he patted Xue Chi angrily, and patted Xue Chi's head back, "I was asking you, why did you ask me instead!" Xue Pan looked at it and thought about Xue Chi, He said directly, "Think about it, after you give marriage, there will be more people coming to hint at you?"

Seeing Xue Chi nodding, Xue Pan asked him to stop talking, but continued to explain, "Most of these people are dudes, or bastards with good backgrounds, but there are still a few good ones. You mentioned it to me quietly, but you You can't just look at people on the surface. The situation in the capital is complicated, and it affects the whole body. You have to be cautious about this marriage. Think about it, our family was originally connected with the four major families of Jinling in Jinling. Over the years, our family has gradually We are estranged, so there are still people who connect us. In fact, the important thing is that our family’s foundation is too shallow. Nearby, our family is also full of limelight, but you have to remember that this is too much, and it is applicable at any time. So at this time, my sister is good Find an examiner, don’t want to be number one or second in the list, the second best is good. Pay more attention to this imperial examination when you wait for Qiu Wei, if it is suitable, you have to make a decisive move.”

Seeing that Xue Pan's expression became more and more serious, Xue Jia didn't dare to refute, and replied obediently, "Got it, brother."
