Chapter 177: The Shen Family Is Cheap (Fifth Update)

After sending away Imperial Physician Qin, Xue Maoye completely lost his previous worry, got up lazily, and said to Aunt Mei and Aunt Lan: "Let's go, go back to the courtyard." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info "Since Old Madam Xue can't die, it won't be a bad thing, so he won't care if she will collapse on the couch and can't get up, so that she can be much cleaner, and there will be fewer people to block him."

It's just that before he left the Liqing Courtyard, a mother-in-law quickly stepped forward to communicate: "Master Hou, Mama Yu from the Eldest Princess of Shouning Mansion sent a letter, saying that the eldest princess gave it to Master Hou." ā€

Xue Maoye was stunned, and looked at the letter in his mother-in-law's hand: "The eldest princess of Shouning asked someone to send it?" "Could it be that King Kang has some orders?

He hurriedly took it and opened the letter and looked at it at a glance, but the more he looked at it, the more weird his face became, and then he was a little bruised, full of anger, but he couldn't come out, so he could only hold the letter tightly, gritted his teeth and told his mother-in-law: "Go to the ancestral hall and invite the third master out, let him come to the Zizhu Courtyard, I have something to tell him." ā€

The ancestral hall of the Xue family is in the backyard of the Hou Mansion in Guangping, this time there is no sound, Xue Wenhao sat on the side eating tea, bored listening to Xue Xing talking about the Hou Mansion, when he was bored, a mother-in-law came in quickly and gave Xue Wenhao a salute: "Third master, Hou Ye asked you to go to Zizhu Courtyard quickly, he has something to order." ā€

Xue Wenhao suddenly had a bitter face, what can he do in this New Year's month, he must be taught a lesson again, although he has not been beaten in the past two days, but he has been locked up in the ancestral hall and punished for kneeling, which has made him very depressed, if he has to teach him a lesson, it will really make him miserable.

He had to hang his head, slowly get up and follow the woman to the inner courtyard, and when he arrived at Zizhu Courtyard, he dragged his steps, and it took a long time to go in to see Xue Maoye and salute him: "What do you have to call me to?" ā€

Xue Maoye stared at the third son in front of him, in fact, among the three sons, he valued the third son the most, not only because he did a good job of making art articles and was outstanding, but also because his temperament was quite similar to Xue Maoye, and he was the most like him among the three sons. But now he is so ridiculous that he doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and when he thinks of losing 30,000 taels of silver for his Hou Mansion in vain, Xue Maoye is a fire in his belly.

He forcibly suppressed the fire and said with a straight face: "You can figure it out, if there is another mistake, don't blame me for driving you out regardless of the relationship between father and son." ā€

Xue Wenhao lowered his head and said, "It's my son's fault, I don't dare anymore." ā€

"That's it, you go back to the courtyard today, and in two days, you and the Shen family will go to the Yuzhen Temple and see the Xuanqing people." Xue Maoye frowned and said vaguely.

"Go to Yuzhen to see the Xuanqing people?" Xue Wenhao was stunned, "Why did you go to meet Xuan Qingzhen with the Shen family?" "Yuzhen Temple is the Taoist temple of the imperial palace in the palace, and the Xuanqing Zhenren is even the Queen Mother who is enshrined as a true person, why did he let him go with Shen Ruohua to meet that real person?

Xue Maoye couldn't say it clearly, so he could only say with a tiger face: "If you go, you can go, in the first month, your mother is sick again, what's wrong with you going to help the Hou Mansion offer incense and pray for blessings?" ā€

Xue Wenhao didn't dare to ask again, so he had to agree.

Xue Maoye waved his hand and asked him to step back: "You go back, early the day after tomorrow, I will have someone prepare a carriage to send you over." With this impatience in his expression, Xue Wenhao had no choice but to retire.

When Xue Wenhao went out, Aunt Mei dared to come forward, took hot tea and said softly: "Master Hou, why bother, the third master is just young and confused, and he will definitely not dare to gamble with others in the future." ā€

Xue Maoye sighed: "Where am I for that, as long as Princess Neng Shang, there will be no amount of silver in the future, but the eldest princess doesn't know who she has heard, and now she won't let the third child divorce his wife, but think of a way to let him get away from ......."

Aunt Mei said in surprise: "Do you want the third master and the third lady to reconcile?" But if he is divorced, wouldn't he bring back all the dowries? "Even she knew that the dowry of the third room was worth a lot of silver, so letting the Shen family take it back for nothing really didn't look like the Xue family's practice.

Xue Maoye rubbed the corners of his forehead irritably: "If you just return the dowry, it's just that, if you want to do more than just dowry!" The eldest princess's letter instructed that she should simply send Shen Ruohua away, not only to take all the dowries away for her, but also to give her another silver field and shop, so as not to be said to be Xue Wenhao's unkind and unrighteous wife, who will be forced to divorce from others, and will not ruin Xue Wenhao's reputation.

If Shen Ruohua mentioned this by himself, Xue Maoye would never have agreed, but now it is the order of the eldest princess of Shouning, and he has to agree to it, otherwise he will offend the eldest princess, let alone think about making other plans.

It's really cheap for nothing! Xue Maoye's chest felt stuffy for a while, he originally thought that he would be able to get a dowry if he married the daughter of the Shen family, but he didn't expect that in the end, not only did he not get the dowry, but he would have to send so much money out! It's so terrifying that I want to vomit blood!

Xue Wenhao went back to Qiongbi Courtyard dejectedly, since he owed Changle Fang the silver, he couldn't sleep a few well, and now although he was scolded and closed in the ancestral hall, he finally paid back the silver, and his heart was finally steady, and he was no longer afraid of someone coming to ask for debts. He didn't change his robe, he simply fell asleep on the small couch in the hug, and didn't wake up until dark.

When he opened his eyes, he had already turned on the lamp, sat up lazily, and was about to call someone in to serve, but he heard someone on the side: "The third master is awake?" I'm afraid I'm hungry after sleeping for a long time. ā€

When he turned his head to look, it was Aunt Gui in a delicate pink jacket and goose yellow satin dress, looking at him with a smile, and there was a food box beside her.

"Why are you here?" Xue Wenhao came forward to serve him by her, put on a robe and sat up.

Aunt Gui deliberately put on some rouge today, and her mouth was still rubbed with bright red lipstick, and there was a bit of charm between her smiles: "The concubine heard that the master had returned to the courtyard, and she was afraid that she would not be able to eat and sleep well in the ancestral hall in the past few days, so she specially asked the kitchen to stew wild duck soup and a few side dishes and brought it to the master." ā€

She opened the food box diligently, brought a bowl of hot and fragrant soup cup to the table, and also put the four-flavor small plate on the table, and said with a smile: "As soon as I came, I saw that my master was still asleep, and I thought I was tired, and I didn't dare to make noise, so I waited here." ā€

Xue Wenhao glanced at her, Aunt Gui didn't look very haggard under the bright light, that supple temperament hadn't changed, he lowered his head and looked at the dishes on the table, he really felt a little hungry, smiled and nodded: "You have always had a heart, and I know your mind." He walked to the desk and sat down, took the dishes and chopsticks given by Aunt Gui and ate them.

Aunt Gui stood aside with a smile, her head hanging and serving him to eat, as docile as before, but the hand tightly held in her sleeve seemed to hide something.
