[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

Jinling is not far from the capital. In one month, even if you take the inland waterway, you can go back and forth once, but the Wang family still didn't come. Xue Wang, who had been waiting for her natal family to come, was gradually disappointed and was waiting for her baby. After the full three months, it was even more gloomy.

The world is complicated, and it's not that Xue Xun wants to have a good relationship with Xue Wang, so he won't come to him for other things.

Just received the news from the Secretary of General Administration that the emperor had a secret order to let him go to Beijing.

Xue Xun took a deep breath and guessed what the intention behind this secret order was.Did the emperor believe his lies about his ineffective cash flow, or did he hate him for his incompetence and think he was not good enough to be in charge of the General Secretary?At this time, the imperial power is as great as the sky, even if he keeps comforting himself in his heart, isn't he just an aborigine, he still can't stop feeling uneasy.

Xue Xun put the secret order in his arms and walked to the west wing.

"A Su, how good is your baby today?" Xue Xun interrupted Xue Wang's recitation loudly.

"Brother Hao is here, take a seat." Xue Wangshi greeted Xue Xun while sitting on a chair. She is now used to such a lazy and casual look, unlike before, she immediately stood up and greeted her husband when he appeared.Brother Hao is right, the rules are for outsiders to see, it is better for the family to be more casual.

"Didn't you still read the Analects yesterday? Why are you back to the Book of Songs today?" Xue Xun asked.

Xue Wangshi is sorry, she has been out of her mind for the past few days, just picked up a book and started reading, like a conditioned reflex, she didn't pay attention to what she was reading.When I woke up, I felt sorry for the sage book.

"Brother Hao came so early today, is there something wrong?" Xue Wang changed the subject.

"The weather is getting colder, there are no ground dragons in the family temple, and there is not enough firewood. It just so happens that the old house has been repaired, so I think it's time to move back."

"Listen to Brother Hao." Xue Wang nodded softly. Her pregnancy is three months old, and there is still no one from her natal family. It was too embarrassing, and I was even more afraid that my husband would neglect me because of my natal family's neglect.Since ancient times, the in-laws and the two surnames have been good, and the daughter's family is just a bond.

Xue Xun lightly stroked Xue Wangshi's shoulders, hugged her in his arms, and comforted her: "Don't worry, maybe it's because the slaves are greedy for comfort and delayed on the road."

Xue Wangshi didn't speak, and after a while Xue Xun felt the clothes on his chest began to get wet, "A Su, don't cry, what's wrong with you? Don't cry, crying makes my heart ache."

Xue Wangshi was sobbing, while crying: "Brother Hao, don't need to comfort me, I know that my mother's family is definitely not going to send me something, I shouldn't expect extravagantly, I'm just a concubine..."

"What's wrong with the concubine? When I asked for marriage, I married the daughter of the Wang family. You are the daughter of the father-in-law, so why bother with the concubine? Now my wife is A Su. Even if others look down on you, I still respect and love you. Hmm~ "The last word "um" brings out the wavy line of pampering and expecting.

"Brother Hao..." Xue Wang couldn't bear it any longer, and burst into Xue Xun's arms, crying loudly, "I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you..." My brother Hao is so good, but I can't help him , didn't even fulfill the duty of a woman, entered the door for seven or eight years, and now she's only pregnant...

"Okay, okay, I'm not sorry, you and I are a husband and wife, so why not say sorry." Xue Xun gently patted her on the back, comforting her softly.

Xue Wang wailed for a while, and when he calmed down, he felt a little embarrassed again, for such a big person, he still cried like a child.

Xue Xun didn't seem to notice her embarrassment, and said with a normal expression: "I'm about to leave for the capital to announce the good news to my father-in-law and mother-in-law in person. You draw up a gift list, and I'll send it along."

"Are you going to the capital?" Xue Wang asked in surprise, "When? After moving back to the old house?"

"Departure tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Regarding business matters, you shouldn't think too much about it now that you are pregnant. I will talk to you in detail later."

"No, no, I don't mean to get to the bottom of what the men say about things outside and me, a woman in the house. I just said something casually..."

"Here again, didn't you say that a good husband will be responsible for a thousand pieces of gold and a wife for five hundred pieces? How can the mistress of the house not know the outside world? When our daughter is born, how will you teach her to manage the household?"

"I'm pregnant with a son!" Xue Wang interrupted.

"Pfft..." Seeing how nervous she was, Xue Xun laughed out loud, and said, "How do you know it's your son?"

"I..." Mrs. Xue couldn't say that she had been looking forward to this son for seven or eight years, only thinking that this was a son.

Xue Xun knew that if there were no accidents, this would be the famous Xue Pan, and he would naturally be his son, but he still comforted Xue Wang and said, "Don't worry, Ah Su, it's the same for boys and girls, my father has already chosen the name, yes A son is called Xue Pan, who looks like a dragon; a daughter is called Xue Mi, and our daughter will be sweet all my life."

Xue Wang was moved and nodded, "Well, my daughter's family still chooses a nickname to make it easier to raise her. Baochai is a good name."

Xue Xun replied with a smile, sighing in his heart, Xue Pan and Xue Baochai are all complete.

Xue Xun was undecided whether to have a frank and honest talk with Xue Wang. In the past month, Xue Xun had tested her knowledge level, which was equivalent to that of a schoolboy in Kaimeng. classics.The good news is that I know more about poetry, and I am good at arithmetic, which is enough to be the head of the house.If you don't wake her up, you will focus on the inner house for the rest of your life, that is, an ordinary woman, but she is pregnant now, the time to wake her up has not yet come.

Xue Xun secretly touched the letter on his chest, feeling very hot.

Xue Xun accompanied Xue Wang to eat and take a walk, and went back to the East Wing to rest.Since Mrs. Xue Wang became pregnant, their husband and wife lived separately, and the nurses they invited all meant this, fearing that the young couple would hurt the child unknowingly.Under the advice of her mother, Wang Xue wanted to give Xue Xun two concubines, but Xue Xun pushed them away. At this critical moment, don't use sex as a distraction.

As soon as he returned to the East Wing, Uncle Zhong came over, holding the sealed and secured letter from the Secretary of the General Administration, a red wax seal.

Fearing what would happen, Xue Xun opened it up and saw that going to Beijing this time was really not a good job. The prince complained in front of the emperor, implying that Xue Xun would not do anything.Xue Xun was in a daze at the time, and when the people below gave the money, they gave it according to the money in the letter from the prince, without any extra money.In the past, when Master Xue was around, in addition to the amount in the letter going to the official account of the General Administration, he had to make up for the Xue family's private filial piety.The money passed through several hands, and many people benefited from it in the middle. The total amount was reduced, and there were many people who offered their hands in private, but in the hands of the prince, there was a lot of money lost.

Now the emperor's attitude towards the prince is still gentle, even if he is not gentle, there is no reason to wrong his son for the sake of his subordinates.

Xue Xun looked at the current situation, the trip to Kyoto is difficult!

The next morning, Xue Xun bid farewell to Mrs. Xue. Mrs. Xue took out the gift list that she had drawn up overnight. Xue Xun took it and saw that it was nearly three levels less than usual. Does she not take it seriously?

Xue Wang looked nervously at Xue Xun's face, seeing him nodding his head in agreement, she finally let go of her concern.The married daughter and her natal family acted coquettishly and lost their temper, which affected the relationship between the two families. Xue Wang was not sure that her actions would pass the test.

Xue Xun supported Xue Wangshi to sit down, but stopped talking.

"Brother Hao, but I didn't do well. Just say what you have to say, and I will definitely change it." Seeing his expression, Xue Wang felt relieved and lifted her heart again.

"Oh, I didn't want to bother you with these mundane things, but I can't do it now."

Wang Xue looked at her husband nervously, "Brother Hao, what happened to the family's business? I still have some money in my dowry, how about..."

Xue Xun shook his head and laughed, "Where did you think it was? It's not business. The Xue family's business can't go down. It's another matter."

"Well, tell me." Xue Wang sat down firmly, consciously able to bear any bad news.

"Do you know how we became husband and wife?"

"Ah?" Xue Wang's face was confused, didn't he tell the bad news, why did he get here.

"The Xue family is just a businessman, and their ancestors only have the false name of Ziwei Sheren. How can they marry the daughter of the county grandson. Since ancient times, the marriage is well-matched, don't you think it's okay?"

"We are old relatives, marry high and marry low..." Xue Wang said, this is what the nanny kept talking to her in the past, isn't it because the Wang family is strong, they have been married for seven or eight years, and the husband didn't take a concubine?In the past, Wang Xue believed in such a statement, but now she would rather believe that brother Hao loves herself than let people disturb them.

"If you talk about old relatives, those who were born in Jinling are from the same hometown, and most of the nobles in the imperial court are old relatives, but I have never seen them marry. The Wang family's generation is only the eldest sister and your two daughters. How precious, how did you come to Xue's family?" What? No matter how low the marriage is, a lieutenant general can still be found, why marry a businessman who can't give you a phoenix crown and Xiapei for the rest of his life?"

"I...I..." Mrs. Xue did not dare to admit that she sometimes had such doubts, but how could she say this to belittle her husband's family.

"Everything is for this!" Xue Xun took out a black face token from his bosom, and wrote a Tong character in official script.

"Talk?" What do you mean?

"Have you heard of the General Secretary?" Xue Xun asked. The General Secretary is well-known, but not many people know who is in charge.

"General Secretary! That General Secretary?" Xue Wang exclaimed. The General Secretary is a sharp weapon used to scare people. "Don't do anything wrong, God, the General Secretary is watching!" wait.

Xue Wang put down the sign tremblingly, and asked tremblingly, "Tell me this... Could it be that my natal family..."

Xue Xun can't laugh or cry, Xue Wang is not only naive, but also has a big brain.

"I said this because His Majesty secretly ordered me to go to Beijing. Misfortune and fortune are unpredictable. I am afraid that you will be used by others when I am not at home."

"Brother Hao, don't worry, I will stick to the door and never step out of the second door." Wang Xue said nervously, her mother's family is fine, her husband's family is her foundation.

"Not only that, but I have something else to tell you. Originally, you were pregnant, so it shouldn't be used to disturb you." Xue Xun sighed.

"Brother Hao, it's okay, the child is very considerate, and I'm not tired at all." Xue Wang said hurriedly, this month she exercised according to the doctor's doctor's advice, and the insomnia before she became pregnant is gone, and she feels that her body is better than before.

"When I married you, I swore in my heart that I would protect you for the rest of my life, so that you would not have to worry about foreign affairs. Now I broke the promise with my own mouth. How embarrassing is it."

"Brother Hao..." Xue Wangshi was moved to tears. Brother Hao had never said this to her.
