[Red Mansion] Hairpins fly when they are

The banquet in the Chen family was very lively. Although the guests were not powerful people, Mr. Chen had accumulated some connections over the years of doing business. In addition to relatives and friends, there were more than [-] tables in the front and back yards. Beat the gongs and drums, bursts of joy.

After the banquet, Jia Yucun took Fan Jiaoxing and Baochai to say goodbye, just entered the house, the senior management came out to greet him, and reported that the young master of the Xue family had arrived and was resting in the guest room.

Jia Yucun had known it for a long time, so he was not surprised at all, and nodded to show that he knew.

Fan Jiaoxing had heard of Xue Pan's reputation, and disliked that he had been in prison, and since he was Baochai's elder brother, why should she praise his stinky feet, she looked at Baochai with a smile, with With a hint of sarcasm.

"Congratulations sister, you brothers and sisters are reunited again." After finishing speaking, before Baochai could answer, she immediately turned around and blessed Jia Yucun, "Master, mother must be waiting at home. Please."

Jia Yucun would not force her to meet a foreigner. Hearing what Fan Jiaoxing said, he nodded and said softly, "Then you go, tell my mother, I'll go to the guest room first."

Fan Jiaoxing agreed, and went straight to the inner courtyard. On the way, she heard the little girl say that the old lady was sleeping, so she turned and went back to the east chamber to rest.

"Master, my brother..." Baochai automatically filtered out Fan Jiaoxing's yin and yang aura, stood on the spot and tilted his head for a while, then quietly stretched out four fingers to compare, "Could this help me?"

The reason why she didn't guess about Jia Yucun was because after getting along with her, she found that Jia Yucun was actually a very thoughtful, principled and bottom-line person, even though he had two faces under the bed.

He should be very supportive of Xue Pan's imprisonment.

Jia Yucun did think so.

Although he is not in the officialdom, after so many years of being an official, he has also established his own contacts and relationship network. Not to mention others, only the fourth prince values ​​him so much. As long as he asks for it, the fourth prince will definitely not refuse to give him this. face.

Back then, when he entered the officialdom for the second time relying on the recommendation of Lin Ruhai and Jia Zheng, he was so ambitious, trying to be a good official for the country and the people, and the person who gave him the blow was Xue Pan.

Xue Pan connived at his servants to beat Feng Yuan to death in order to snatch Xiangling in his hometown. Jia Yucun was so angry that he immediately ordered people to arrest him, and the result...

Power comes first, so what can he do as a small magistrate?

Later, he rescued Baochai and gradually fell in love with her, and Xue Pan became his uncle. Even with this relationship, he never thought of getting Xue Pan out of prison in advance.

Xue Pan's temperament is too stubborn and lacks discipline. If he is not taught a harsh lesson, he will be a disaster when he comes out.

Of course, it's a different story if you encounter a situation like amnesty.

Therefore, from the very beginning, what he promised his mother-in-law, Xue Shi, was to wait for Dahe in the future, and he would pay Xue Pan's atonement money.

It is precisely because Xue's family did not give much hope at the beginning, so Xue and Xiangling also recognized it, and only hoped that the amnesty would come sooner.

This time the fourth prince offered to help, and he couldn't deliberately block it, but he just sighed in his heart that Xue Pan has a good sister.

"You begged him for this. He is lucky to have a sister like you." Jia Yucun stretched out his hand to pull Baochai, "Let's go and see your brother."

Xue Pan was sleeping soundly on the bed in the guest room, Xue Shi and Xiang Ling were reluctant to leave, guarding the outside room like guarding a treasure, for fear that Xue Pan would fly away if he didn't pay attention.

As soon as Jia Yucun entered the door, he saluted Mrs. Xue: "Mother-in-law, I heard that uncle is back?"

"Yes, I was sent back in the morning. Are you tired from going out? Come and sit down."

After Baochai sat down, she raised her eyes and looked around the room, but she didn't see Xue Pan, so she asked, "Where's brother?"

"He's sleeping inside." Mrs. Xue's face was full of joy, and she looked even happier than Mrs. Chen who married her daughter-in-law today.

Xiangling was a little afraid of Jia Yucun, so she slipped out to make tea, leaving them to talk.

Mrs. Xue didn't know about the fourth prince, and she didn't even know that Baochai was responsible for Xue Pan's release. She put all this on Jia Yucun's head, thinking that this good son-in-law used her relationship and spent a lot of time with him. Only financial resources allowed Xue Pan to escape from the sea of ​​suffering.

Looking at Jia Yucun, Mrs. Xue was very moved and her voice was choked up: "Pan'er was able to come out because of my uncle's blessing. I don't know how much money I spent? My uncle will accept the 1000 taels first, and we will make up for it if it is not enough. .”

With that said, he turned around and took out the purse that he kept next to his body, and handed it to Jia Yucun.

Jia Yucun glanced at Baochai first, then pushed the purse back, and said to Xue with a smile: "Mother-in-law, take it back quickly. This matter is done with the help of noble people, and it didn't cost me half a penny."

Although Mrs. Xue often lived in the backyard, she didn't know much about the major events outside, but her son's affairs were very serious. Thinking back when she spent all her family property, Jia Zheng still said that there was no way to rescue him.

My uncle said it lightly, and I don't know how much effort I spent in private. Even if it didn't cost much money as he said, is the debt of favor owed easy to repay?

Mrs. Xue handed the purse forward, and said stubbornly: "Even if you didn't spend your money, you have also used your favor. Treating guests and giving gifts, what kind of money is not required? You put it away quickly. In the past, we did not have the ability to let you Don't worry, now that Pan'er is out, we have hands and feet, and we can live a good life slowly, so don't worry about it."

Seeing that she insisted on giving it, Jia Yucun saw that it would not look good to push and pull, so she had to take it first and hand it to Baochai. Baochai smiled and stuffed the purse into Xue's hand.

After going around and going around, the purse still couldn't be given away. Xue couldn't laugh or cry, and was very grateful in her heart. Now she looked at Jia Yucun with the same eyes as when she looked at Xue Pan.

Xiangling came in with a tea tray, Baochai got up to pick it up, everyone handed one, and then looked in the direction of the room.

She is not like Xue Shi and Xiang Ling, who can sit here and wait for Xue Pan to wake up until the end of time, she asks Xue Shi: "Mother, how long have you been sleeping?"

Xue's excitement of seeing her son again calmed down a little, and then she realized that the uncle should not keep waiting like this, so she got up and said, "I've slept all morning, I'll go and have a look."

Xue Pan didn't sleep soundly. He was always worried that this was just a sweet dream. When he woke up, he found that he was still curled up in the dark and damp prison, so when there were voices outside, he slowly opened his eyes.

The room was lit with incense, and the fragrance was overwhelming. Under the body was a brocade mattress and embroidered pillows. Xue Pan took two deep breaths, got up and got out of bed.

There were two robes hanging on the screen beside him, one was the one he had just worn that didn't fit well, and the other was brand new.

He took off the new robe and tried it on, and it fit very well. Looking closely at the stitches, it was obviously made by Xiang Ling, and it was much more comfortable to wear than his brother-in-law's tight robe.

Xue Pan put on his clothes and went out, and happened to bump into Xue Shi head-on.

"You're awake." Mrs. Xue took two quick steps, with a smile on her face, "Your sister and uncle are back, come and see you soon."

Xue Pan's footsteps stopped, his mouth was tongue-tied, and he couldn't speak for a while.

When Jia Yucun was Jing Zhaoyin, he was in charge of public security in the capital and had a strong official authority.Back then, when Xue Pan committed a murder outside, Xue asked people to intercede everywhere, and Jia Zheng also greeted Jia Yucun, but Jia Yucun ignored it and only ordered the local officials to follow the rules.

Xue Pan didn't know who Jia Zheng entrusted later.

However, this does not prevent Xue Pan from reflexively being afraid when he hears his name.Don't look at how loud he was when he was in prison, saying that if Jia Yucun treated his sister badly, he would teach her a lesson when he came out.As a result, hearing this name now makes me shiver.

Jia Yucun is not his brother-in-law, but a terrible thing that can put him in prison again!

Xue Pan remained silent, turned his head and wanted to go back to the bed to hide, it would be better to cover his poor, helpless and weak body with a quilt.

He misses his sister very much, but this brother-in-law is really scary, he should hide for a while, and then see his sister quietly after the brother-in-law is gone.

Mrs. Xue grabbed him and joked, "Are you sleepy? Your sister and uncle are outside."

"Brother." Baochai stood up and greeted Xue Pan with a smile from afar.

Although Xue Pan is a jerk, he really loves Baochai. When he heard Baochai's delicate voice, he immediately suppressed his fear of Jia Yucun. ,hey-hey."

Jia Yucun was sitting next to Baochai, and when he saw Xue Pan approaching, he also stood up quickly.

He was half a head taller than Xue Pan, and when he was sitting there, there was a faint official authority all over his body, Xue Pan tried hard to control his eyes, and resolutely refused to glance over there.

After he stood up, the sense of oppression intensified, and Xue Pan even tightened his breathing.

Baochai didn't know that this tall and big brother was actually a cowardly baby at heart, and she was looking at Xue Pan.

After losing weight, this guy still looks like a man, with straight eyebrows and eyes, and wearing a well-fitting satin dress, he can vaguely see the demeanor of a nobleman.

It would be better if the smile wasn't so goofy.

I hope that he can change his face and start a new life in the future, and it would not be a loss for Xiangling to wait for him.

"My uncle is still here." Seeing that her son was messing around again, she didn't even say hello to my uncle, so she hurriedly pushed him behind his back.

"Brother Uncle." Jia Yucun had a smile on his face. Xue Pan was obviously several years younger than him, so calling him Uncle was smooth and not at all awkward.

"Brother-in-law." Xue Pan only glanced at Jia Yucun halfway, then quickly saluted him and thanked him for his kindness.

"Uncle is too out of touch, sit down and talk." Jia Yucun stretched out his hand to help him, and then pulled him to sit beside him.

He knew that Xue Pan was not worth much, and to put it bluntly, he was useless.But once a man has a family, he should establish a career, not to mention how much he has to achieve, at least he must be able to support the whole family.

Jia Yucun suggested in a gentle voice according to his own ideas: "Since the uncle is out, he should plan for the future. In my opinion, it is better to open a shop and invite some good guys. The uncle will take care of it every day, even if the Earning only a dozen taels of silver is enough for monthly household expenses.”

Xue Pan sat upright, without squinting. He had never been so nervous when facing the teachers in the school. Hearing this number, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to loosen his shoulders, he immediately took another breath and tensed his back. , Pretentiously nodded slightly.

Fortunately, his brother-in-law didn't ask him to earn a few thousand taels a month, otherwise he would really hit the wall.

In terms of momentum, you must not admit defeat. If Baochai is wronged at her husband's family, he, the only male, will have to stand up and protect her!
