Enter the red building

Chapter 33 The girl in purple

The festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year lasted until the end of January, but Mrs. Xue had been worried that Xue Qiu would go to the capital alone to take part in the examination since the end of the year, so she was worried.The Xue family was very excited about Xue Qiu going to the capital this time, after all, maybe the Xue family would stay in the capital forever.The house of the Xue family in the capital is already being sorted out, and the servants are very happy to know that the uncle will take part in the test in the capital, especially now that it has been rumored in the capital that Xue Qiu is the number one talented person in Jinling, and Jie Yuan of Jinling .Moreover, the Qiangu that no one in the capital has confronted so far was definitely given by Xue Qiu.

Xue Qiu himself was also very excited, thinking that when he first came, he just hoped to change the status of the Xue family businessman, so that the fate of his younger sister Xue Baoqin would not be so miserable.Now that I have really embarked on this road, I will soon go to the capital at the foot of the emperor, and my official career will start from there.

Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Qiu, who was already taller than her, and felt very relieved. She straightened Xue Qiu's skirt, and said: "Qiu Er, you must be careful on the road. Last time I heard Bai Xia say that you are very seasick. This time I put a lot of medicine for seasickness in my bag, you must take it. And when you arrive in the capital, you must pay attention. There are many high-ranking officials there, so you must endure some things and don't push yourself. Your aunt and the others also In the capital, I can ask them for help. Your sister and I will be there soon." At the end, Mrs. Xue had tears in her eyes.

Looking at his mother, Xue Qiu was also very moved, and comforted him: "Mother, don't worry, your son will be fine."

Xue Baoqin next to him interjected: "Brother, you must remember Sanyuan Jidi."

Xue Qiu said: "Sister, you have to take good care of your mother." Xue Baoqin nodded, feeling a little sad in her heart.

Mother Li saw that the masters were all sad, and said with a smile: "Ma'am, don't be sad. Uncle, this is for the imperial examination, so you should be happy and make yourself happy."

Mrs. Xue nodded, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, then smiled and said, "That's right, I'm still crying. Qiu'er, you don't have to get three yuan, don't tire yourself out, and pay attention to your body." Turning around, he said sternly to Xue Qiu's close maids, Lu Lian and Lan Rui: "You have to take good care of the uncle, don't let the uncle be cold or hungry. Do you understand?"

Lulian and Lanrui hurriedly responded.

Mrs. Xue thought of Xue Qiu's cousin Xue Pan again, and told Xue Qiu: "Qiu'er, you know about your cousin, don't mess around with him in the capital."

Xue Qiu said with a wry smile: "Mother, you don't think your son will change like that, do you?"

Before Mrs. Xue could speak, Bai Xia who was standing aside said: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely take care of you, and I will definitely not let those foolish people take you with me."

Seeing Bai Xia's serious face, Mrs. Xue couldn't help laughing, "Qiu'er, I know it. It's just a reminder."

Nanny Li looked at the time and reminded: "Ma'am, the time is almost here, uncle should go."

After Xue Qiu bid farewell to his mother and sister, he took Bai Xia, Lvlian, Lan Rui and the others from the Lin family to the capital by boat.I don't know if it's because Xue Qiu's symptoms of seasickness are not as severe as before after being on the boat twice.

Twelve days later, the boat docked, and Xue Qiu and his party arrived in the capital.

The capital city deserves to be under the foot of the emperor, so it is not only prosperous, it is even more lively than Jinling.The bustling market, carriages, sedan chairs, etc. shuttle on the street.In the capital city, Xue Qiu's servants prepared a carriage to pick him up early in the morning. Xue Qiu did not take the carriage, but asked the others to bring their luggage back to Xue's house, while he himself took a look at the prosperity of the capital.

Wang Fu, the steward of the capital house, is about 40 years old, but he looks very healthy, so he asked the others to go back first, and he walked back to Xue's house with Xue Qiu and Bai Xia.

Wang Fu introduced briefly in front, and asked, "Master, when are you going to visit the eldest wife?" The eldest wife that Wang Fu said was Xue Pan's mother Xue Wangshi.

Xue Qiu looked at the surrounding shops and stalls, and asked, "They don't seem to live in their own house?" Xue Qiu naturally knew that Xue Wang lived in Jia's mansion.

"Indeed, they live in Jia's mansion. I heard that Miss Xue was not selected when she came to the capital this time." Wang Fu thought for a while and said.

Xue Qiu naturally knew about Xue Baochai's draft in the capital, and also knew that Xue Baochai was selected because there was no one in the court and no backer.This also caused Xue Baochai to marry Jia Baoyu later.In fact, for Xue Baochai, the cousin, Xue Qiu is very admired both in the previous life and in this life. After all, she did a good job as a lady in ancient times.She seemed to be a model of an orthodox lady at that time, but she had a cynical personality factor in her bones. She had a strong critical spirit towards the society at that time. No.30, "Crab Ode" written in eight chapters, sharply satirizes the domineering officialdom figures at that time, such as Jia Yucun.And her favorite lyrics and music are actually "Shanmen · Parasitic Grass", which is full of loneliness and rebellion.Xue Qiu was quite emotional about his cousin's fate, thinking that he must change it.It's just that for his cousin Xue Pan, Xue Qiu is really helpless, and he only hopes that he will not be dragged down by Xue Pan.

Xue Qiu thought for a while and said, "Let's go tomorrow! Prepare an extra generous gift and visit Jia's residence."

Wang Fu nodded to show that he understood.

Hearing a loud noise coming from the front, Xue Qiu took a closer look, and found that it was a girl in purple riding a white horse, with a man tied up with a strong rope behind her, and the man was dragged on the ground, in great pain and embarrassment Looking at him, there is a blood mark on his body, which makes people palpitate.The horse was running very fast, and the passers-by on the street hurriedly avoided it for fear of being hit by the horse.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" The purple-clothed girl scolded loudly with a frosty face.

Suddenly Xue Qiu saw a little girl frightened, standing in the middle of the street blankly, without thinking of avoiding it at all, just staring at the horse running towards him with wide eyes.

It's close, it's close!

The purple-clothed girl saw the little girl hastily tightened the reins, and made a sound of "stroking", wanting to stop.But at the beginning, he rushed too hard, and there was no way to stop the horse all of a sudden.

The distance was less than two meters, and they were about to be hit.

The girl in purple was also frightened by the scene in front of her, desperately trying to stop the horse.

At this moment, Xue Qiu rushed to the girl's side in one step, and before he had time to hug the girl, he turned over and rolled aside, holding the girl tightly with both hands, letting himself roll on the ground, so as not to hurt the girl.Xue Qiu's hands were bleeding from grinding, Xue Qiu frowned and got up and hurriedly asked: "How is it? Is there something wrong?"

The purple-clothed girl finally stopped the horse, gasping for breath and still terrified by what happened just now.Seeing this scene, the people around couldn't help cheering for Xue Qiu and applauding.Bai Xia and Wang Fu didn't react at all, their uncle rushed out to save people, and hurried to Xue Qiu to ask if there was anything wrong.

Only then did the girl realize that it was Xue Qiu who saved her, and she said with lingering fear: "I'm fine, brother, your hands are bleeding." The girl cried out in fear when she saw that the blood had stained her sleeves red.

"It's okay! It doesn't matter!" Xue Qiu quickly comforted him.

The purple-clothed girl at the side got off her horse, still holding a whip in her hand, and asked tentatively, "Hey, are you all right?"

Only then did Xue Qiu turn around, the girl in purple clothes had a smooth and fair face like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the flowers of the dawn of spring, exuding a sharp-edged and cold handsomeness.His eyebrows are like ink paintings, under the long drooping eyelashes, his deep eyes twinkling like black crystals, his tall nose, his temperament exudes nobility and elegance, and he has his own unique ethereal and handsome.

Xue Qiu didn't bother to pay attention to how the purple-clothed girl looked, but only paid attention to the girl's clothing and knew that she was a noble girl from the official family. He glanced at her vaguely, with a kind of indifference in his eyes.

Of course, the purple-clothed girl also saw the indifference in Xue Qiu's eyes, and her pretty face was furious, but she looked at Xue Qiu's resolute face, and she was still wrong, so she suppressed her anger and said to Xue Qiu, "I'm sorry."

Xue Qiu didn't care about the girl's words, asked the girl a few words, and let the girl go first.

Xue Qiu tried to raise his right arm, looked at the blood on his right hand, and couldn't help thinking: "My right hand is really full of disasters."

Xue Qiu didn't want to pay attention to the purple-clothed girl. He glanced at the man dragging behind the horse, and then took a deep look at the purple-clothed girl. He turned around and took Bai Xia Wang Fu to leave.

The girl thought that Xue Qiu would say something to herself after taking a look at the man lying on the ground, but she never expected him to leave just like that.

Pointing at the man lying on the ground, the girl subconsciously asked, "Why don't you let me let him go?"
