[Qing Chuan + Red Mansion] Midas touch

Zuo Xi has always had a question that he didn't want to understand, that is, whether the Xue family intends to live in the capital for a long time or simply travel.

The book listed three reasons for the Xue family to go to the capital, none of which meant that they would never return.But when Xue Pan and others moved into Lixiangyuan, they gave people the air that they wanted to live in the capital for a long time.

It was also thinking of this that Zuo Xi thought about sorting out the Xue family's study first, so as not to spoil the collection of this house in the end.Moreover, these books are kept in the small apartment, and she can take them out and look through them from time to time, which does not count as burying them.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, even imperial merchants are still merchants.The Xue family knew why the Wang family married their daughter to the Xue family.This marriage is just a matter of what they need and what they want.Therefore, after marrying into the Xue family, Master Xue purposely created a very comfortable living circle for Aunt Xue in order not to let Aunt Xue get involved in the Xue family's business money, and to make the Xue family an appendage of the Wang family. , did not tell her to use the back house as a battlefield like other royal daughters.The long-term comfortable life and comfortable environment made Aunt Xue lose all the skills she learned in her natal family.

Completely useless.

At this moment, Master Xue is gone, and the members of the Xue clan are all staring at their family wanting to tear off a piece of meat.Aunt Xue panicked after Xue Pan went to the street a few days ago and was beaten up by a group of masked men who appeared out of nowhere.However, her temperament is really hard to stand up, and her son has such a temper. Although her daughter is sensible and can help, it is not a long-term solution.

The letter from the capital was read several times and asked Aunt Xue to take her children to the capital.So Aunt Xue decided to go to the capital.

Let's live with my brothers and sisters for a few years, and when my son grows up and is sensible, it won't be too late to come back after marrying a daughter-in-law.And seeing her daughter enter the palace with her own eyes, she can feel more at ease.Maybe with her daughter's talent and appearance, she could hear the good news from the palace before leaving Beijing.

That's right, although Aunt Xue is not smart, she understands the advantages of living in Jinling.

With the support of Wang and Jia's family, the Xue family was the emperor of Tu in Jinling.So why not be the local emperor in Jinling, and have to live timidly at the feet of the emperor.

So Zuo Xi, who was thinking about what it would be like to become the empress dowager in the study, was called over by Aunt Xue.

Because Xue Pan was still recuperating on the bed, Aunt Xue and Zuo Xi came to Xue Pan's bedside at this moment, talking with Xue Pan while discussing with him about going north.

What Aunt Xue meant was that they would leave for the capital as soon as Xue Pan recovered from his injury.Xue Pan was severely beaten, and he lay on the bed wilted. Hearing what Aunt Xue meant, he felt a little refreshed.

Xue Pan has always heard people say that the foot of the Son of Heaven is the most prosperous place in the world, so he wanted to have fun, how could he object.

Zuo Xi didn't think too much, after all, the Xue family in the original book came to Beijing.Although the ending is not good, staying in Jinling may not bring good results.The Xue family is too rich, it would actually be more dangerous to live in Jinling all the time.

Furthermore, Xue's family is indeed a local snake in Jinling, and Xue Pan is lawless, staying in Jinling may harm many people.When he arrives in the capital, he may learn to be bad like in the original book, but at least the capital is not a place where he can play wild at will.

"Since mom and brother have decided, why don't we send someone to the capital to clean up our house first. Whether we live in it or not, there must be a place to worship our ancestors. One more thing, it's extremely inappropriate for us to travel during the filial piety period. If you don't offer daddy's spiritual seat, it will be outrageous."

People in this era have a strong sense of ritual.Every year and festivals, we have to open a shrine to worship our ancestors or something.Coupled with multiple reasons from Mr. Xue, I think Aunt Xue will not be like the original book, where the house is not cleaned up and she just wants to live in someone else's house.

This is not a big deal, after all, what makes people feel that the Xue family is disrespectful is that the Xue family married all their wives in the Jia family.

Thinking of this, Zuo Xi couldn't help thinking of Xia Jingui.If Xue Pan is really asked to marry Xia Jingui back, then she would rather enter the palace and become a palace maid than stay in Xue's house.

Zuo Xi's suggestion to tidy up the house was a reminder to Aunt Xue. It is not reassuring to leave only a few old servants to watch the house after leaving for several years, especially Xue's family still has several fully furnished Big warehouse.Just taking it to the capital, it will inevitably be laborious and mobilizing.

"What is this? It's just that there are people below. At most, it's just a matter of chartering two more ships."

After the three mothers had discussed it for a while, Dang even called the first housekeeper and the second housekeeper of the Xue family to talk.

Because it was already autumn, Xue Pan was ill again, and the river was frozen in winter, making it difficult to walk, so the three of Xue's family planned to go north after the spring of next year.And because soon after the beginning of spring is Master Xue's anniversary, the time to go northward is pushed directly to after the anniversary.

Therefore, there is definitely more than enough time to tidy up the house in the capital.

The matter of tidying up the house was handed over to the second housekeeper of the Xue family, and when the second housekeeper took the order to go out, Zuo Xi hurriedly stopped him, "Everyone is busy in autumn, and no one asked relatives to bother about such a trivial matter in our house." Be sure to keep a low profile when tidying up the house, and don't disturb your relatives."

When Aunt Xue heard Zuo Xi's order, she also expressed her thoughts, "I originally wanted to ask him to go to various places to say hello."

"Mom, why are you in such a hurry. During Dongyue, isn't the head housekeeper going to Beijing to deliver gifts? It's only a month or two before and after, so I'll just say hello at that time."

Moreover, when the butler goes to the capital to give the New Year's gift, he can also directly transport part of the inventory in the Xue family's warehouse to the capital together with the New Year's gift.In this way, when they set off for the capital next year, they can leave with ease.

It can also be relatively safe.

Xue Pan didn't care about these matters at all, so after Aunt Xue and Zuo Xi had another discussion, the matter was settled.

In this short half day's time, Feng Shi has already recognized her daughter.At this time, he was proposing to kowtow to Zuo Xi, thanking her for her righteous help and reuniting their mother and daughter.

Zuo Xi didn't intend to meet them.One is that they can't see the scene of the reunion of mother and daughter, and the other is that people who are not used to this time and space always express their hearts by kowtow and kneel.But when he turned around and saw Xue Pan lying on the bed bored, Zuo Xi changed his mind again.

After Xue Pan was beaten, Zuo Xi deliberately hinted at the Xue family's mother and son, saying that this happened because the two of them were not punished properly before.If he is punished well, maybe this matter can be avoided.

Right now, Zuo Xi is a good person and the reason is to do more good deeds to accumulate some merit so that he can protect his brother who is in trouble.

The last time the stick and the penalty kneeling were cut corners, the two women knew it well.At this moment, Zuo Xi hinted at it again, and he was already guilty.

Because of this, even if he is as willful as Xue Pan, he dare not mention the little girl who was snatched back by him.

Don't blame Zuo Xi for destroying relatives righteously, if Xue Pan still dares to pester him endlessly, she would dare to find someone to beat him up again.

That's right, the person who beat Xue Pan was found by Zuo Xi.

Zuo Xi said earlier that no matter whether Feng Yuan was rescued or not, Xue Pan must be punished.Aunt Xue was reluctant to teach Xue Pan a lesson, so she did it herself.

However, due to her height and status, Zuo Xi could only ask for foreign aid.

Ordinary people, Zuo Xi, dare not invite them, for fear of leaking the news and letting Aunt Xue and Xue Pan know that even she and the daughter of a boudoir have no connections.And order the girls around her to help her go out of the house to find someone. This is not a small risk, Zuo Xi can't trust Yinger and the others.

Fortunately, Zuo Xi heard that the monks in the temple are willing to help others and relieve their worries.So Zuo Xi went to Linggu Temple in those days, and lobbied the master abbot for a long time, and promised that she would give out silver taels to give porridge in Linggu Temple for three years, and the abbot reluctantly agreed to help.

Since it is for the people of Jinling, who will go to hell if he does not go to hell.

Zuo Xi first asked Aunt Xue and Xue Pan to accompany him to Linggu Temple on the pretext of going to the temple to worship Buddha and eat vegetarian food.The master abbot talked about karma for a while.First give Aunt Xue and Xue Pan two ideas, and then dispatch a few young monks in the temple to help exercise their muscles and bones.

You beat Feng Yuan half to death, and look, the retribution came back, and you were beaten half to death again.So don't care if you have money or not, if you do something bad, you will be punished.

It's just that some report early and some report late.

……

Brightly speaking to Aunt Xue and Xue Pan, he went back to the west courtyard to meet Feng's Yinglian mother and daughter.Entering the house, before Zuo Xi saw the person clearly, Feng Shi pulled Yinglian and kowtowed to Zuo Xi: "Girl is very kind and virtuous, reuniting the women and their daughters, women..."

After receiving several heads from the Feng family, Zuo Xi asked someone to help their mother and daughter up quickly.Zuo Xi sat at the head, and asked Feng Shi and Yinglian to take their seats, and then they talked about the arrangement.

"My brother is a reckless bastard, and he did a good deed by mistake. It is our family's apology for frightening your daughter and reuniting your mother and daughter. Please forgive me now, Mo Blame my family."

"What did you say, girl, it's too late for us to be grateful, and we dare not harbor resentment." Hearing this, Feng Shi quickly expressed his opinion, and then expressed gratitude again.

Regardless of the original intention of this matter, it is true that their mother and daughter are reunited.Moreover, the Xue family treats each other with courtesy, which is already a rare kind family.

A few days ago, Zuo Xi asked someone to buy a small courtyard with only three rooms not far from Feng's house.At this moment, Ying'er was asked to hand over the house deed and 100 taels of silver to Feng's family. Although the two tried their best to evade it, Zuo Xi knew the financial conditions of the two of them well, so he didn't take it seriously.

"... At the beginning, I thought that if I couldn't find my wife, I was going to send her to Feng's mansion according to Jinqianjin's wishes. Now that I have picked up my wife, it is better for my wife to take her home to resettle." To Feng Yuan or to marry someone else, that is the responsibility of the Feng family as a mother. "The house and the silver are all for me to add makeup to Ling Qianjin, please don't refuse."

When Zuo Xi talked about this, the mother and daughter of the Feng family really needed money to settle down, so they stopped declining, got up and thanked Zuo Xi, and took the house deed and bank note.

After the work was done, Zuo Xi asked Ying'er to send them away.Looking at their backgrounds, Zuo Xi suddenly thought of the saying that people often say, "Give someone a rose, and your hands will have a lingering fragrance", so Zuo Xi rubbed his hands together stupidly, and then sniffed them with a proud face.

Huh~, why does it smell like chicken cakes?

At the same time, in Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi was chatting with Guo Guiren.For some reason, I started talking about the little maid who hurt Elder Brother earlier.

It's too strange to die.
