[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

"My lord, the little one is guilty, so I'm here to plead guilty." Outside the house, Steward Cheng personally pressed Yu Dalai, who was tied up, and knelt on the ground to plead guilty.Yu Dalai's mouth was tightly blocked by the cloth towel, and he could only let out a whining sound. He didn't understand how things turned out like this in a blink of an eye. It was different from what I thought!

"Oh? What are you guilty of?" Mr. Xue asked calmly after being pushed to the corridor, as if he was not surprised by Cheng Guanshi's sudden self-explosion.As for Aunt Xue, Master Xue ordered someone to boil the Anshen soup, lighted the Anshen incense, and just fell asleep, so that she would not worry about Xue Pan all the time.

Cheng Guanshi looked at the indifferent Mr. Xue, his eyes seemed to have seen everything, and his kneeling posture, which was quite upright, suddenly slumped. It turned out that the master had known it a long time ago, and he foolishly thought that he could cover it up by buying a few idiots.Fortunately, I didn't continue to be stupid and reined in in time, otherwise what awaited me would definitely not be a good end.

"The little one was blinded by lard for a while, and did not follow his wife's instruction to reduce or exempt the tenants' rent, and secretly paid [-]% of the rent. This is all the relevant accounts that the young one has earned through this in the past two years. The young one is willing to return all the income. I just ask the master to spare my little life and give my little family a way to survive." The steward put the booklet with both hands, knelt down on the ground, his words were full of remorse, there is nothing to cover up now, it is better to explain it clearly , maybe the master can show mercy outside the law.

A servant took the booklet and handed it to Master Xue respectfully. Master Xue probably flipped through two pages and read it, then threw it aside and ignored it.

"The little one knows that his crime cannot be pardoned, and he is willing to pay for his merits." Cheng Guanshi seized Da Lai, "This is a famous Lai son in Hedong Village, known as Yu Da Lai. He said that the uncle discovered the secret, so he arrested him. This threat is small, as long as the small one gives money, he will create a fake death and sell the old man far away. Although the young one is greedy for a while, he will never forget the kindness of the master and his wife, let alone be ambiguous With conscience, I shot the uncle, so I arrested him and came to plead guilty."

Yu Dalai whimpered to defend himself, Cheng Guanshi took the cloth from his mouth, so that he could have a good time, anyway, there is nothing to be afraid of now!

"My lord, don't listen to Cheng Guanshi's nonsense. He was greedy for the rent and was afraid of being exposed, so he spent money to find villains to help him cover it up. When the villains arrested him, they didn't know it was the master. They just thought it was yours. My servant, otherwise I would not dare to touch a single hair of the master if I borrowed a hundred courage from the villains. The villains..., the villains are only going to be locked up for a few days, and they will be released when you leave. There is no suspended animation. There is no betrayal. The villains have always been small and troublesome, and dare not do things that are harmful to nature, master, you have to trust the villain, trust the villain..." Yu Dalai turned his head quickly, hoping Minimize the severity of this matter.

Master Xue waved his hands, not in the mood to listen to the two continue to argue, "It's easy for me to believe you, just tell me where you locked him up." As for what happened, Master Xue knew exactly what was going on.

"I'll say it, I'll say it." Yu Dalai only thought that he had a chance to make meritorious deeds and atone for his sins, so he quickly expressed his attitude. At this moment, his previous self-confidence disappeared completely.

"That's right there." Yu Dalai found the cave where Xue Pan was imprisoned in the dark under the pressure of others.

Cheng Guanshi held a torch and looked carefully for a long time before he found a hole that only adults can enter and exit by bending over. It is so secret, no wonder I didn’t find it after going back and forth several times before. How to describe it.Forget it, the people who can earn the Xue family's family business are naturally not ordinary people. It's normal for ordinary people to not figure out their ideas. Cheng Guanshi gave Yu Dalai a push, and Yu Dalai lowered his voice and shouted into the cave. road:

"Third brother, third child..." After calling several times, there was a rustling sound in the cave.

"Da Lai, why are you here now?" The third child stared at the faint fire at the entrance of the cave with sleepy eyes.

"You come out first, I have something to tell you."

The third child didn't ask any more questions, and walked out of the cave obediently. As soon as his front feet came out of the cave, his back legs were pinched by the necks of several waiting people and pressed to the ground, "Don't shout!" The third child took a look and was also pressed down Yu Dalai of the head, well, brother and brother, no one will say anything.

"Take it away!" Cheng Guanshi finished the task of arresting people and took them away. He came quietly and left quietly, waving his sleeves without intending to take Xue Pan away.Xue Pan, who was so sleepy that he was sleeping soundly, would cry like a fool if he found out. His father really didn't love him, and he didn't rescue him immediately, leaving him alone in the cold and dark fear in the cave.

A group of people came and went in a hurry, not to mention Guanshi Cheng's various doubts, even the two people who were arrested were in a daze, how could they catch a prisoner and not save him?They couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for the kid in the cave who called himself Uncle Xue. Wasn't this kid picked up?

Afterwards, according to Yu Dalai's identification, Cheng Guanshi arrested the remaining three accomplices and kept them in Zhuangzi for the time being, and sent them to the government in the morning.

As for Xue Pan, who was left alone, he was tired all day and didn't even drink his saliva at night. He was thirsty and hungry and had to wake up from his sleep.Because his hands were bound, he could only lean halfway on the stone cave, his blood was blocked, and his whole body was stiff and uncomfortable.Xue Pan looked around with the little light from the entrance of the cave. There was no one else in the cave except himself, and the guard had long since disappeared.

The quiet environment quickly made Xue Pan unbearable. The two big eyes slowly continued to shed tears, but they refused to let them fall. Finally, the eye sockets could no longer bear it, and the big tears fell drop by drop. landed.Xue Pan only felt extremely wronged, thinking that his dignified Xue family had fallen to such a point. Not only did he have no food or drink, but he also worried about his life. Why is life so difficult and why did he go through these things.Xue Pan issued a torture from the depths of his soul!

Gradually, the silent crying turned into soft sobbing, and finally into howling. Xue Pan, who only cared about himself, didn't realize that the gag was gone.The cries echoed in the small cave, one after another sounded very sad, and some of the voices were heard outside, whimpering, and it sounded scary in the early morning when there was just a ray of morning light on the horizon.If someone breaks into this place, they will mistakenly think it is a mountain spirit haunting, and they will be frightened to death.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, Xue Pan finally stopped crying. The bad guys hadn't been seen for so long, Xue Pan thought maybe they thought he couldn't escape, so they left him alone.He couldn't continue to wait here to die, he had to take this opportunity to run out, otherwise he would really have no chance when the bad guys came, Xue Pan couldn't help himself when he thought that they were discussing to sell him to a shameful place I shuddered all over.Regardless of his young age, Xue Pan knows a little bit about what that kind of place is like. He is curious about the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion, but it doesn't mean he wants to become a member of it.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm not afraid!" Xue Pan pumped himself up, wriggling his body with difficulty and trying to stand up by the cave wall, but unfortunately his fat and puffy body became an obstacle, and after a lot of effort, he got out again Sweating, Xue Pan stood up unsteadily.

Xue Pan, who finally stood up, didn't care to catch his breath. He tentatively called out twice: "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?" Except for the echo from the cave, no one responded for a long time. After confirming that the bad guy was not there, he raised his foot. run outside.

Xue Pan ran forward at the fastest speed in his life, but his bound hands hindered his movement, saying that running was actually about the same speed as walking.In order to escape as soon as possible, Xue Pan didn't care about the weeds that were as high as him stabbed his face and left small wounds on his hands, and he didn't know how many times he tripped over the stones under his feet and fell. There was only one thought in his mind, he had to quickly find a place where there were people, so as not to be caught by those bad guys again.

Just walking aimlessly like this, walking, I don't know how long I walked, until the sun was rising above my head, Xue Pan still didn't see any people, looking at the surrounding mountains, rocks and trees, Xue Pan was dizzy and physically exhausted The only thought is: as long as he escapes this catastrophe, in the future he will study hard, be obedient, and stop thinking about eating, drinking and having fun all day long.If it wasn't for a few days of vacation this time, he wouldn't have disguised himself as a servant; if he hadn't disguised himself as a servant, he wouldn't have worked in the fields, and he wouldn't have heard secrets by accident, so he wouldn't have been tied up So much suffering in the cave.In short, as long as An Ansheng is good at being the master of the Xue family and don't make any fools, there will be no messy things. Think about it carefully, every time he does something that shouldn't be done, something that shouldn't happen Thoughts, there will be a series of chain reactions immediately, and he will be the one who suffers and suffers and is punished in the end.After this battle, Xue Pan finally figured out some things, and realized the truth of life that if you don't do something, you won't die.

Before Xue Pan couldn't bear it and completely fainted, he seemed to see a figure and a faint human voice, maybe he was about to be saved, Xue Pan fainted with confidence.

"Here, here..." Someone finally found Xue Pan, untied the rope, and ran into the village with his back on his back.

When he woke up again, Xue Pan was already lying on a soft bed, which was actually not as soft as the one at home, but after spending the night alone in the hard cave, even with only one bedding, he felt like he was in heaven.

"Brother, you're awake." Xue Baochai's surprised eyes first came into view, followed by Aunt Xue with a worried face, and finally Master Xue.

Xue Pan glanced at each of them, his eyes were astringent, and his voice was choked up: "Father, mother, sister..." He threw himself into Aunt Xue's arms, as if he had found the warmest and safest safe haven, and finally came back, which is great.

Xue Pan, who suddenly became emotional, made several people feel a little uncomfortable for a while. Aunt Xue, who hadn't been so close to her son for a long time, felt especially obvious. never mind."

Enough of acting coquettishly, Xue Pan finally got down to business, "Have the bad guys who arrested me been caught? There is also a problem with Zhuangzi's management."

"Brother, don't worry, those bad guys have been sent to the government by my father, and the steward has been punished."

Only then did Xue Pan breathe a sigh of relief. When he arrived at a safe place, Xue Pan's emotions slowly recovered, and he was also in the mood to tell about the thrilling day and night that he had just experienced, how he discovered the secret, how he was arrested, How to run away alone... just talking, the meaning inside changed. Anyway, Uncle Xue didn't have any fear and fear throughout the whole process. He was fighting wits and courage with the bad guys. He and Xue Baochai cheered and listened to a few words. As for Master Xue, he looked at Xue Panqiu quietly.
