[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

Xue Pan has a straightforward personality, he only cares about the past and the future, and only wants to make himself happy. People like him are the easiest to be incited by others.

Xue Pan was not angry about the incident in Yangzhou before. Yangzhou salt merchants wrote to him to complain, or came to the city to complain to him in person. Everyone in the family knew about these things. Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai persuaded He didn't want to make trouble, and the guys at home also advised him to be patient and not to provoke Lin Jian.

Xue Pan is impulsive, but he also knows his own weight. Except for complaining once or twice when drinking with others, he really doesn't have the trouble of going to find Lin Jian beyond his capacity.

This time Xue Pan came up with the idea of ​​framing Lin Daiyu, and it was really someone behind the scenes who instigated him, which made Xue Pan's heart burn hotter and hotter, but he still didn't dare to confront Lin Jian head-on, so he turned his idea to Lin Daiyu's. body.

Xue Pan also knew that he couldn't find someone irrelevant to do such a harmful thing, so as not to let the wind leak and the thing didn't work out, so he put himself in it.

Yun'er was a friend he used to associate with, and he could trust him, so he asked Yun'er for Lin Daiyu's poems.As for making those poems into lanterns and making lantern riddles, Xue Pan didn't want to find anyone else, but quietly found a few folks at home who he had always been close and familiar with.Even the matter of disseminating those poems to the outside world was written by Lin Daiyu, Xue Pan also left it to his own tricks to do it.

Xue Pan was so bold that he was not afraid of anything, but the servants of Xue's family knew in their hearts that if this matter was released, it would break the sky.

Even though they didn't know the temperament of the young master of the Lin family, after the event that the plaque bestowed by the emperor Tai/Zu in the Rongguo Mansion was cut off, they all saw it clearly. Young Lord Hou protects Miss Lin in his heart.

It's fine if this matter is not discovered. If it is discovered, will the Xue family be able to survive?

What's more, the young master of the Lin family is very capable. As long as these things get out, it's impossible not to find out.

The guys were afraid that Xue Pan would hurt the already precarious Xue family, so they secretly told Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai about it.

Aunt Xue had lost her mind, but Xue Baochai immediately told the guys to stop doing this, and directly sent someone to call Xue Pan back, persuading him earnestly, telling him not to be obsessed with obsession, and asking him to promise not to let him go. The news spread that Lin Daiyu was the poet.

Xue Pan didn't take it seriously at the time, saying that even if he didn't spread it, as long as the poems were still circulating in the market, sooner or later someone would find out that Lin Daiyu was the author of these poems, and Lin Daiyu's reputation would not be preserved at that time.

Xue Baochai didn't ask Xue Pan to take care of this, of course she knew that what Xue Pan said was the truth, but being picked up by others was definitely different from Xue Pan actively spreading it.Xue Baochai immediately forced Xue Pan to agree, but Xue Pan had no choice but to be annoyed by Aunt Xue's crying and frightened by the consequences Xue Baochai said, so he finally complied with Xue Baochai's words and let the matter go.

Xue Baochai captured Xue Pan, but she was like a bright mirror in her heart, knowing that the Lin family would definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, what Xue Pan had done before would not be erased, and her Xue family would not have the ability to let it out Xue Baochai knew that Lin Jian had to rely on Lin Jian to do this.

But Xue Baochai is just the daughter of an imperial merchant, and she is waiting to be married. With her status and situation, not to mention that she will not see Lin Jian, it is impossible for her to rush to see Lin Jian in the West Garden of the Lin family.Xue Baochai could only come to see Lin Daiyu, and even though it was hard to talk about it, she had to make it clear, let Lin Daiyu know her apology, and then let the Lin family come forward to save the situation.

The incident happened only overnight, and Xue Baochai did not expect Lin Jian to act so quickly.

She got up in the morning and hadn't gone out yet, but she heard that Lin Daiyu had gone out from West Garden to her newly opened medicine hall and medical clinic. Xue Baochai had just decided to meet her in Lin Daiyu's medicine hall and medical clinic, when something happened at home.

Xue Pan was taken away by the yamen servants of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Aunt Xue was so anxious that she cried again, and then she was too emotional to cry and fainted. She woke up after a while. Xue Baochai asked her cousin Xue Biao, who had just arrived in the capital, to take care of Aunt Xue. go out.

When people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate came to arrest Xue Pan, they had made it clear that the Jia Yucun incident had occurred, and that the murder case committed by Xue Pan in Jinling was now being retried.

Xue Pan had really committed the murder case in Jinling back then, but Jiayu Village cared about the family of Xue's family, the support of Jia Zheng in the Rongguo Mansion and the reputation of Jia's family, so in the end he insisted on protecting Xue Pan.Although Keren survived, the Xue family couldn't stay in Jinling any longer, so they entered the capital.

This is an old thing, and it has been many years since now. Rongguo Mansion has been fine, Jiayu Village has been fine, and Xue Pan is naturally fine.

But now that the Rongguo Mansion is gone, the Jia family and the Xue family cannot protect themselves. No one in Jia Yu Village touches him, and once they do, he will never be able to escape.As soon as Xue Baochai heard the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate say that the arrest of Xue Pan was the result of the Jia Yucun incident, she immediately realized that it was Lin Jian who moved Jia Yucun after learning about the incident, and Xue Pan was the target.

Xue Baochai knew that Xue Pan was involved in a life-and-death lawsuit back then, and since the Metropolitan Procuratorate has detained Xue Pan this time, it must have been a disaster.Xue Baochai was afraid that Aunt Xue would ask Xue Biao to go outside to deal with worse things in a hurry, so she privately asked Xue Biao not to go outside to deal with Xue Pan's affairs.

Today's officialdom is not as good as before. With the Lin family's young master, the Metropolitan Procuratorate strictly investigates the conduct of all officials, and the power of the four kings and eight princes has also been weakened. The Jia family and the Xue family are all unable to protect themselves. Going to take care of Xue Pan, I'm afraid it won't help the matter, the current plan is to wait for the disposal, otherwise, Xue Pan's affairs may be endless.

And when she came to see Lin Daiyu, she didn't need to tell Lin Daiyu the inside story, she just wanted to apologize in person, and in the final analysis, it was her Xue family's fault.

She has always known that Lin Daiyu is extremely intelligent and can perceive people's hearts from the subtleties, but she never thought that Lin Daiyu would know that she was the one who persuaded Xue Pan behind her back, and from Lin Daiyu's words, Xue Baochai also knew Knows more about this than she imagined.

Thinking about it, how could the Lin family have no way to know what happened last night?

Lin Daiyu heard that Xue Pan had been detained by the People's Procuratorate, and thought that Lin Jian's action was really fast.

But she said with a slight smile on her face: "Brother Ling is blessed to have a younger sister like Sister Bao. It's just that Brother Ling is Brother Ling, and Sister Bao is Sister Bao. What Brother Ling does next does not need to be treasured." My sister apologized to me for him."

Lin Daiyu implied that she would not forgive Xue Pan.

Xue Baochai knew Lin Daiyu's temper well, and she had tried her best to mediate, so she was not surprised to hear this, but she just sighed in her heart and kept silent.

Xue Baochai asked Lin Daiyu how to deal with the current situation: "To tell you the truth, my family's ability is limited. My brother made things like this, and my mother and I are unable to deal with it. My brother may be punished for the old things. This is all in my family. I shouldn't have brought this matter up to my younger sister. Now that my younger sister is under the care of the Lin family, and also valued by Lord Lin, Lord Lin knows everything, so there must be a way to rescue my sister from this predicament, right?"

The matter of printing the collection of articles has not yet come out, and the things have not been sent to Yangzhou. Lin Daiyu will never tell Xue Baochai about this matter, she still just smiles lightly, reassuring Xue Baochai.

"Wait a few more days. Wait a few more days, and Sister Bao will know."

Seeing that Lin Daiyu didn't want to say anything, Xue Baochai didn't force her either.

She is used to being a person who can read words and demeanor. When she talked about Xue Pan, she knew that Lin Daiyu would be unhappy, but she couldn't do it if she didn't speak clearly. Now that she speaks clearly, she sees that Lin Daiyu's attitude is lukewarm. I am interested, so I will not mention this topic anymore, and turn to something else.

The Xue family is an imperial merchant, and Xue Pan is in charge of the Xue family's business, but a person like Xue Pan must not be able to manage it well, but it is just following the old rules of the family, and the guys are doing business according to the old rules. There is no improvement, but life can still go on.

Xue Baochai didn't care about the family's business, but she could always hear and see some of them. Seeing that Lin Daiyu's medicine hall and medical center were running decently, she just had a few words with her.

She asked Lin Daiyu: "Is my sister going to start a business in the future? I thought that no matter what others do, my sister will not be contaminated by these things anyway."

The residual tea in Lin Daiyu's teacup was cold, Zijuan replaced her with new tea, and she asked Zijuan to replace Xue Baochai with new tea. With the light tea fragrance in the room, Lin Daiyu smiled.

"My father passed away and left these things with me. I have no brothers or sisters. I am alone, and I dare not abandon these properties. Besides, there are still some people in the family. Not all the Lin family has died, and there are still some people. If you want me to support you, you can’t just sit and eat with these industries, naturally you have to do some industries for long-term development.”

"In the past, people took care of food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. If you don't get contaminated, nothing will happen. Now you hold your own things in your hands, relying on others is worse than relying on yourself. Holding your own things in your hands is better than being uncomfortable under the fence."

Xue Baochai smiled faintly: "Isn't the Lin family taking care of my younger sister's daily necessities? The Lin family will never wrong my younger sister. My younger sister will not be short of anything. Look at my younger sister's life today, it is better than before. .”

"If my sister wants to be at ease and worry free, why not hand over the family property to Master Lin to take care of it, and my sister can also take care of her health with peace of mind. Otherwise, doing business is also a labor-intensive thing. If my sister is exhausted, wouldn't it be Is it worth the loss?"

"Besides," Xue Baochai pursed her lips into a smile, and said softly, "Besides, my sister and the Lin family don't need to be separated from each other anymore, right?"
