[Qing Chuan + Red Mansion] Midas touch

Steward Xue saw that his girl did not seem to be joking, so he quickly told Zuo Xi what he knew: "This Mr. He is a guest of the Eighth Master, and I heard that he is very important to him. Maybe the girl doesn't know it yet. The eighth elder brother has been intelligent since he was a child, possessing both ability and political integrity, and his behavior is all praiseworthy. For many years, he has been deeply loved by the present, and his courtiers support him, even the crown prince can't match him."

Hehe, not to mention Ba Ye, she can still treat this surname He differently and greet him with courtesy.But Ba Ye is really unlucky, he sounds like that Jiu Ye, who brought his own BGM to settle accounts after autumn when he appeared on the stage.

Those who have studied history and watched Qingchuan's novels, movies, TV dramas, who doesn't know that the next one to sit on the dragon chair is the fourth master of Master Kang's family.

The legendary fourth master is narrow-minded, stingy, vengeful and stingy.It is as warm as a spring breeze to one's own people, and as cruel as an autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves to embarrassment.

Those royal elder brothers who competed with the fourth master for the dragon chair, the worst end is the eighth family.Then can people from his house get involved?

Absolutely no way.

If she knew what was going to happen and didn't avoid the risk, she would be really stupid Xue Er, Xue Dadai's own sister.

╭（╯ε╰）╮

Having said that, Xue Pan has been in the capital for more than half a year, and half of the people in the capital know how naive and stupid he is.It's okay to pretend to be stupid when you encounter a hard stubble now.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was good. Zuo Xi frantically swiped the screen in his heart to slander while listening to what the big housekeeper said about Ba Ye.Even though the butler said nothing, he didn't take it back.

After a while, Zuo Xi personally poured a cup of tea for the big housekeeper, before Zuo Xi said in a simple and rude way: "If you don't have anything to show courtesy, you can either rape or steal."

The housekeeper might as well say that, Zuo Xi froze for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth began to twitch violently.It took a long time to say another small matter, "I heard that Mr. He has a daughter, and now she is raised in front of Bafujin. She is about the same age as the girl, only two years younger than the uncle. She is gentle, generous, and educated."

"What kind of young talent is my brother? Can he be good and beautiful?" After hearing the hint in the words of the big housekeeper, Zuo Xi curled his lips very bluntly. "Stop it, if this word gets out, it will make people laugh out loud." Not only did they make fun of their wishful thinking, but they also made trouble with that surnamed He.

"Girl." Zuo Xi's words made it impossible to continue. The housekeeper called Zuo Xi with a wry smile, still hoping that Zuo Xi would change his mind.

"The person surnamed He posted the post today, either because of his own intention, or because of the mission of his master behind him. It has been a year and a half since my father passed away, and we have been in Beijing for more than half a year. If he really has that old friendship in his heart, It should have come to the door a long time ago. Most of the time when I post the post now, I came here on an errand."

"Why didn't this old slave think of it. If this is the case, it would be even more difficult for us to offend him."

Zuo Xi shook his head straight after hearing this: "The butler is an old man in the house, and my father entrusted our three mothers and the Xue family to you before he died. You are my own, so I might as well tell you something from the bottom of my heart My brother is stupid enough, I am stupid enough, and my mother is soft-hearted and has no idea when things happen. Now our family is just relying on our uncles and aunts to live, supported by the big housekeeper and the loyal servants of this house. Ask yourself, What else is there besides the few taels of silver left by daddy. We all know what they are up to."

Zuo Xi paused for a moment, glanced at Yinger, and told her to go out and watch. After Yinger went out, Zuo Xi continued to talk to the big housekeeper, "I have also heard the outside things that the big housekeeper said just now. I’ve talked to you a few times. Although I’m a bit stupid, I also know the truth that when the first bird is shot, the first citron rots first. Let me say that the eighth master is too sharp. After the new emperor ascends the throne, he may not tolerate it. I can let him go. This Mr. He is afraid that he will be difficult to dismiss, and he is thinking about the foundation of our Xue family."

Seeing that he and Zuo Xi were the only ones in the room, the chief steward also expressed his true thoughts when he saw Zuo Xi's straightforward words, "In recent years, the crown prince has become more and more arrogant and immoral, and he has not restrained himself after several reprimands. Ba Ye is praised by the court for his work, and there is no way to know how to go further." Doing business has the risk of losing money, but if you can spend money to buy a dragon's work, then this business is worth doing.

As soon as Zuo Xi heard this, he knew that the old housekeeper also wanted to bet on Lao Ba.

"What if it's not? What if you bet on the wrong treasure?" Zuo Xi asked the old housekeeper slowly, "This is not an ordinary business. It's a matter of paying a few taels of silver. Once you make a wrong bet, if you want to retreat, you can't It's not that easy anymore. Those people are ruthless characters who eat people and don't spit out their bones. Just like my brother, it's not easy to be deceived and ruin the family. It is too risky for a small family like us to take this risk, and there is no need to take this risk. Tell me, it is better to stay at a distance than to seek skin from a tiger." As for the Xue family Wouldn't it be nice to be a rich and idle person with such luck and IQ?

"..." That's right, no matter how good the business is, it must be regarded as the person who does the business.Their uncle is not that material.

The big steward said: "What the girl said is very true. It's the old servant who wants to do something wrong. I'll send someone back to Mr. He tomorrow." Except for saying that I'm stupid, everything else seems to be quite reasonable.

"You are looking forward to your family's well-being, so you care about it and make trouble. Uh," it was as if she didn't expect Xue's family to be well. "But you're right. My brother will be thirteen after the new year, and our family will be filial piety at the end of next year. My brother's marriage must really be taken care of. A good mistress can benefit three generations of the family. With my brother like this, The hopes of the Xue family can only be pinned on the sister-in-law and nephew. This is an important matter, and the housekeeper has time to spare, so why not start talking now."

"Don't worry, girl, I won't worry about it for the old slave." The butler showed his loyalty, then turned his head to look at the door behind him, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Madam?"

Seeing him asking, Zuo Xi shook his head without thinking, "It's good that you and I know what's going on today."

"...Listen to the girl." Coincidentally, he thought so too.

……

Since half a year ago, the ninth elder brother and the eighth elder brother have grown up.Don't look at Brother Jiu is still a bald brother, but the power behind Brother Jiu and the money he holds in his hands are beyond the reach of others.Not to mention the power behind the tenth elder brother who has always been inseparable from Meng and Meng.

Without the help of Brother Nine, Brother Eight is increasingly stretched.So He Zhuo, who is a member of the No. [-] elder brother, thought of Xue's family in "a good harvest and a lot of snow".

They sent someone to investigate the situation of Xue's family, and found that the shrewd Master Xue had died long ago, but the head of the Xue family of this generation is an out-and-out two hundred and five.So He Zhuo was about to reach out to Xue Pan and pull him onto the boat of Eighth Brother.

When people get on the boat, are you afraid that there will be no money to help the eighth elder brother?

not too much~

But what He Zhuo didn't expect was that the result he handed over was such a response.

He Zhuo was so angry that he didn't want to deal with the Xue family's silly spores anymore, but thinking of the lack of gold and silver on Ba Ye's side, he had to start thinking of other ways to get people and money.

At this time, Ba Ye, who didn't know that He Zhuo's side had been frustrated, was also making two-handed preparations.Even if the Xue family has an idea, the eighth master doesn't want to give up his ninth brother.

Behind Lao Jiu are not only Guo Luoluo and Dong E, but also the fourth son who married to Mongolia and the fifth son who was brought up by the queen mother.Moreover, Lao Shi and Lao Jiu advance and retreat together. There are not many places where Lao Shi married a Mongolian daughter-in-law. However, Lao Shi's natal family should not be underestimated.

Ba Ye spread a lot of eyeliner in the palace, so when all the clues pointed to him in the incident on the eleventh day, Ba Ye felt that something was wrong.Sure enough, Lao Jiu got into a fight with him because of this incident.

For his brother's distrust, he was angry and sad, but what made Ba Ye even more worried was that the mastermind who planned all this has not been found so far.

Who the hell wants to frame him by killing Eleven?

While Ba Ye hated this person in his heart, he also hated the source of all these disasters from the bottom of his heart, his good brother, the eleventh elder brother in the dynasty.

This day, when he went to the palace to play something, he heard that he had suffered from an old illness on Eleventh, but Eighth Master went to Elder Brother's office with a cold face but pretended to be concerned.

This winter, Eleven became sicker than usual and hardly ever left the house.Hearing that Master Ba was coming, after a flash of cruelty flashed in Eleven's eyes, he returned to his gentle and gentle appearance.

Ba Ye came in from the outside, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Eleven sitting on the kang with a pale face, opening his mouth to speak but coughing non-stop.

After a heart-piercing cough, Eleven bowed slightly and asked Ba Ye to take a seat with an apologetic face.While panting and asking Tian Guo to serve tea, he asked Ba Ye weakly: "Why do Ba Ge come here when you have time?"

Ba Ye looked at Eleven with gentle concern, and said like a good brother: "I heard that you are sick, so I came to see you. What did the imperial doctor say? What kind of medicine did you take? Are you feeling better?"

Hearing the words on Eleventh, he smiled wryly and shook his head, "A useless person like me, cough cough, can neither be loyal to Qing Dynasty, cough cough, nor be filial to Huang Ama, and let Er Niang and brothers worry about it, cough cough, cough cough Cough, it’s better to go like this.”

"Children's words." Eighth Master said sadly, then turned around and asked Tian Guo, the eunuch who was waiting on the side, what the imperial physician said.

When Tian Guo saw Ba Ye asking, she looked at Eleven with a troubled face, Eleven glared at him impatiently, and answered Ba Ye's question by herself, "What can they say, it's just a few words that are repeated over and over again. That's all."

"Then you have to pass on to the imperial physician." After Eleven finished speaking, Tian Guo on the side muttered in a low voice.

When Ba Ye heard this, he thought that Eleven was so self-willed that he didn't even pass on the word to the imperial physician, so he immediately came to give some affectionate persuasion from his confidant brother.Eleven was persuaded once, and with a moved face, he agreed to Eighth Master, and he will send someone to call the imperial doctor to check the pulse in a while.

Eleven's obedient appearance made Baye feel much better.It's just that what Ba Ye didn't expect was that he left elder brother's office on the front foot and invited the imperial doctor on the eleventh day on the back foot, which caused his good ninth brother to misunderstand.

It's just spicy grass eggs.

→_→

When Brother Jiu heard about this, he rushed to Eleven's yard.

As soon as I saw Eleven, I asked mynah what he was doing here.Eleven lowered his eyes and said nothing at first, and then teased his ninth brother with a wry smile:

"Ninth Brother, Mynah also cares about you. All the money you earned in the wind and rain all these years has almost filled my bottomless pit. I know that Ninth Brother treats me well, but you have to think more about yourself. Flower All the money on me can add up to a solid Buddha. Ninth brother, I don't deserve your kindness to me."

Master Jiu: "..."
