[Qing Chuan + Red Mansion] Midas touch

Zuo Xi's aura of wanting to eat Xue Pan was blown away, and when she sat in Ying'er's arms with tears in her eyes, she was still wondering why she didn't wear contact lenses.

In the small apartment, there are yearly and monthly contact lenses that she hoarded before, but there are not many of them, so Zuo Xi has been reluctant to wear them.When in space, she usually wears her pair of black-rimmed glasses.And when she was outside, there were tortoiseshell glasses bought by the Xue family from foreigners at a high price for her.

But the pair of glasses bought by Xue's family didn't know whether it was a problem with the pupils or the prescription. Zuo Xi felt dizzy when he put them on.So he wore it a few times, but Zuo Xi stopped wearing it.

But the result of not wearing it is that these days, she often hits here and there, and what's more, she has made troubles like admitting the wrong person.

Alas, it can only be said that time travel is difficult, and myopia is even more difficult~

When Zuo Xi lamented that she had cut corners during this time travel, Yinger and the others felt that God was too unfair.

The master was gone, and the girl was so sad that she almost cried and went blind.But as for their uncle, he was so happy that no one would take care of him, so he blindly caused trouble.Before, according to the rules, he stayed at home honestly for three months. He didn't want to have a hot filial piety on his front foot, and then such a catastrophe on his back foot.

It's really hard to know what to say.

The Xue family is rich and noble, and there are many servants serving them.Besides Ying'er, Miss Xue also had a few second- and third-class maids, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law by her side.Now when they heard Ying'er calling for someone, they all came together.Three times, five divisions and two divisions helped Zuo Xi and Yinger's meat pads up from the ground.

For people with short-sightedness, this kind of breaking is commonplace, Zuo Xi herself has already become overwhelmed, and no matter how nervous the people around her are, it won't affect her.Let Ying'er pat the dust off her skirt, Zuo Xi only caressed her little face calmly.

Come on, let the pillars come more violently.

"Is the girl hurt?"

Zuo Xi groaned inwardly, turned his head to look at Ying'er who was concerned about asking questions, and shook his head: "This little flesh injury is not worth my heartache. There is no need to delay, let's go quickly."

But this time Zuo Xi learned to be smart. She held Ying'er's hand, and Ying'er led her to the main courtyard where Aunt Xue lived.

He hurried to the main courtyard, and then entered the main room along the curtain raised by the girl at the door.

"Mom, brother, I heard that brother fought with someone?" After entering the room, Mingwu walked in and asked Aunt Xue and Xue Pan's mother and son who were sitting in the room at this time, "How is that man? still alive?"

Aunt Xue and Xue Pan saw that Zuo Xi's forehead was red when Zuo Xi came in, and they knew it was broken again without asking.Aunt Xue waved to Zuo Xi distressedly, and asked Zuo Xi to sit beside her.

When the master left, the girl cried so sadly that her eyes were broken.Although filial piety is commendable, it has caused a lot of inconvenience after all.

After Zuo Xi sat down, Aunt Xue started to talk about today's incident, "It's not that your brother is so unconscious, he's having fun like a wild horse without a bridle..."

When the two mothers said this, they both turned their heads to look at Xue Yema at the same time.As soon as Xue Pan raised his head, he met his sister's clear eyes, a little uncomfortable but still very confident and loudly argued: "It's that poor man who insisted on robbing me, so I asked someone to teach him a lesson. Paused. Who knew he was so, so." Impatient to be beaten.

After being stared at by Zuo Xi with fierce eyes, Xue Pan's voice became smaller and smaller, and he stopped talking at the end.Seeing him like this, Zuo Xi felt even more furious, but she has understood the situation of the family these days since she came here.

Aunt Xue is a middle-aged woman with soft ears and no opinions.In the past, everything was done by the late Mr. Xue, but later Mr. Xue fell ill, and the precocious original owner helped to advise on matters outside the family, so she became even more careless.

But what makes Zuo Xi speechless the most is the patriarchal thinking mode in this person's bones.On the surface, he loves his sons and daughters equally, and even loves his daughter more, but in fact, he loves and pampers his only son the most.

It can be said that most of Xue Pan's lawless temperament in the original book was cultivated by Aunt Xue's pampering and spoiling.

As for Xue Pan, not only is his temperament simple and rude, but he also has all the qualities that a dude from a wealthy family possesses.But this person may be too young, or hasn't been nurtured and influenced by the children of the Jia family, so he is still a little 'innocent' at the moment.

But in any case, it is an indisputable fact that slavery and murder are committed.If he was allowed to escape the punishment he deserved this time, wouldn't he have to make more money in the future?

"What's wrong with people being poor? Should they die if they are poor? Today, if you have money, you can kill those who have no money at will. Then when he has power tomorrow, can he kill rich people like you?" Ruthless After glaring at Xue Pan fiercely, Zuo Xi raised his voice and called Xue Da, the housekeeper of the Xue family, to come in, "Please ask the housekeeper to find out if the poor ghost that brother talked about is dead. Take the century-old ginseng at home Take it too, if you are still alive, you must try every means to save him. By the way, first find out if that person's surname is Feng, with a single name of Yuan? If the surname is good, send someone back to let me know."

"My son, what are you talking about." Aunt Xue felt that Zuo Xi's words were really not pleasant to listen to, so she said something to her with a little dissatisfaction after Xue Da went out.

"My daughter hasn't said anything even worse. If it wasn't for the fear that you won't be able to bear it, my daughter wouldn't say it so tactfully."

Aunt Xue: "..." Although she doesn't know how to write the word euphemism, it doesn't mean she doesn't know how to say euphemism.

"My sister is too fussy. She dies when she dies. What is his identity, what are our identities, is it possible that we should pay for his life? Give him a few taels of silver later, and let him go." Only then did Xue Pan realize what was wrong with what Zuo Xi said just now, "By the way, how did my sister know the name of that poor ghost?"

".Father told me." Zuo Xi suppressed the urge to spout socialist morality to Xue Pan, and attracted Master Xue with a meaningful expression and a flat tone.

"Huh, nonsense. Father, father is gone, how could he know these things." Xue Pan instinctively shivered for a moment, and then refuted Zuo Xi sternly.

"Father just gave me a dream because he was worried about you. Father also told me that the person you killed was named Feng Yuan, and our whole family will suffer retribution for your reckless disregard of human life. Especially you, brother, will be punished for robbing the oiran. A group of clan children were pushed down from the second floor of the brothel, and they were beaten to death. As for me, because I wanted to avenge you, and because I was so beautiful, I was regarded as a strong enemy when I entered the palace. People planted and framed people at will, and the corpse was thrown into the mass grave to be fed to the dogs." After a pause, Zuo Xi turned to look at Aunt Xue, who had a very bad face after what she said, and began to howl, "If you are killed The person my brother beat is really Feng Yuan, so father, mother, if my brother and I have fulfilled what father said, what will happen to you? I will die when I die, but I can’t worry You are all alone."

Aunt Xue was completely dumbfounded, she couldn't respond when she saw Zuo Xi opening and closing her small mouth.Although Xue Pan on the side was also shocked, he still retorted stubbornly with a fluke mentality, "Yeah, maybe not, let's call it Feng Yuan."

"Is it called Feng Yuan? You can tell Dad." After saying something to Xue Pan, Zuo Xi turned his head to scare Aunt Xue, "There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. We are richer and richer than our family." There are too many powerful people, if something happens to my brother, how will you explain to your father in a hundred years, and how will you explain to the ancestors of the Xue family?"

"Your uncle is the military governor of Beijing, and your aunt even married into the Rongguo Mansion. We still have your uncle and your aunt, why is this?" Aunt Xue, who was flustered by Zuo Xi's sudden words, calmed down He carried her brothers and sisters out.

"No matter how close uncle and aunt are, how can they still offend the royal family for the sake of brother?"

"... Aunt Xue was stopped by Zuo Xi's question, and after a while, she looked straight at Zuo Xi and asked: "My son, what else did you dream about. "

"Uh, dad asked you to personally hold the baton to beat brother fifty sticks for him, and then you and brother will kneel in the ancestral hall for three days." After saying that, Zuo Xi sighed softly again, and glanced at Xue Xue in a listless manner. Aunt and Xue Pan, mother and son, "Let's wait and see, maybe that person's name is not Feng Yuan."

Yes, if it is not named Feng Yuan, then the girl/sister's dream is not the master's dream.So after Zuo Xi finished speaking, the main room was completely quiet.

Aunt Xue was confused, she didn't want to believe that it was really her man who lived in Xue's ancestral hall, she was worried that their girls would come back in a dream, and she was afraid that this dream would really come true.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue's hands and feet began to feel cold.For a moment, Aunt Xue began to regret her doting and pampering her son in the past.And Xue Pan, who was sitting at the bottom, writhed and fidgeted as if he had lice on his body.As soon as this pair of virtues was displayed, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was afraid.

Zuo Xi looked at Aunt Xue, and then at Xue Pan, also very upset.

Having nothing to do these few days, Zuo Xi looked through the laws of the dynasty.She found that even though there was no protection law for minors in ancient times, Xue Pan didn't seem to have to pay for Feng Yuan's life.

First of all, he committed a murder with slavery, even if the circumstances were serious, but because Xue's family was a coat of arms of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is often called the coat of arms of the Shangsanqi, the heaviest punishment for this matter was nothing more than the exile of the slaves.Secondly, it was the cause of this incident. The kidnapper entrusted the two families and took two shares of money, which means that Xue Pan was also a legitimate buyer.It is justifiable to protect one's own legitimate interests. Even if there is a mistake, it is also excusable.

From this point of view, even if Xue Pan came to be an upright official, nothing major would happen to Xue Pan.If we look at this matter from a gray perspective, then the result of this matter will be even more frustrating.

Officials in ancient times were not officials in the place of household registration, but the catchers, gangsters, and even the masters in the yamen were all locals.Because of such positions, locals are the most suitable and the easiest to start working.However, there are advantages and disadvantages. Once there is a case, unless the sufferer goes to the county government to appeal, or even if there is a murder case, before the parents and officials know about it, they may be directly arrested by the master and others.Even if the sufferer beats the drum of grievances and everyone knows that the parents and officials have taken over the case, the case needs to be investigated. Once the arrest is made, one of the gangsters is bribed by the local gentry, and they can neglect their duties and deceive others.If the parent officer is still a stepfather and stepmother type, then cases like Xue Pan's ordering slaves to kill ordinary poor people, maybe the money will be in place, and it will really be over.

Zuo Xi also knew which hills to sing and which songs to sing, but people who received modern education and humanistic concepts could not directly look at this kind of life-or-death matter in a short period of time.

Even if Xue Pan became his own brother.

However, even what she can think of, others can't think of?So why did the original book make such a fuss, maybe it was really just a plot need, or... was tricked by someone.

Because of Zuo Xi's words, needles could be heard quietly in the room, and everyone's nerves were tense.It wasn't until the sound of hurried footsteps came from the yard outside that everyone looked at the door together as if they had come to their senses.

Aunt Xue was the most impatient, she raised her voice to ask someone to come in and answer without waiting for the girl to report.

The boy who came in was Xiaodouzi who often went to the inner courtyard to answer questions. He wanted to salute as soon as he came in, but he was interrupted by Xue Pan who had been fidgeting for a long time.

"Tell me what's the poor man's name?" Name.

Xiaodouzi paused in saluting, and replied directly and cleverly: "So that the uncle will know that the person who offended the uncle today is named Feng, named Yuan, and lives in..."

After hearing this answer full of resistance, not to mention Xue Pan, even Aunt Xue had to believe that Master Xue really came back in a dream.

If the dream is true, wouldn't the retribution in the dream be...
