Xue Rui went to see Yu Xiaoxiu, and the next morning, when he was free, he asked the steward to prepare a door-to-door ceremony, and took the time to go to Beppu to visit his cousin.

Without beating around the bush, Xue Rui directly mentioned Xue Wenzhe's injury in the academy, he talked about Yu Xiaoxiu as the brother of a friend, and did not say much about Yu Shu, but deliberately said that Yu Xiaoxiu's injury was more serious, in fact, Yu Xiaoxiu did fall "head broken blood" and "bedridden" Yes.

"Don't hide it from the fourth uncle, although my friend has no family background, he is stubborn and the most fearless of the powerful. She had to go to the official to ask for an explanation, but I happened to meet her, so she stopped her, otherwise this matter would make a big fuss, and it would inevitably make outsiders talk nonsense and slander our Xue family for bullying others. ”

"This beast! Someone is coming—go to the academy and call the second young master home!"

As Xue Rui expected, this bad-tempered cousin was furious, and sent someone to the academy to find Xue Wenzhe on the spot.

Xue Rui also persuaded on the side: "Don't be angry first, wait for him to come back and ask clearly, maybe he will hurt people, and there is another secret."

Xue Rui knew that Xue Wenzhe was fighting with Yu Xiaoxiu for what he wanted, but he didn't say a word.

Baichuan Academy is not far from the house, send a carriage to pick it up, Xue Rui sat down and drank two teas, and the people came back.

"Master, the second young master is back."

"Let him get in!"

Xue Rui turned his head to look out of the door, and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy walking in, with a pair of red boots, covered with a brown and gold rice shirt, his face was as white as jade, and his appearance was excellent, but his expression was impetuous, and he was not a big deal.

Seeing this cousin with excellent appearance, Xue Rui vaguely felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, and he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Dad, are you looking for a child?" Xue Wenzhe was in class, and he was called back in the middle of the center, and he just heard the scolding at the door, and he knew that it was no good to come back. Therefore, as soon as he entered the house, he lowered his head, for fear of upsetting his father.

"Bastard, didn't you see your lobby brother here, why don't you hurry up and say hello." Uncle Xue Tang reprimanded unhappily, in the past, his son was raised in his father-in-law's hometown, and he hadn't seen him a few times a year, but now when he received it, he was afraid that he would be doted on by his mother. Therefore, it is very severe.

Lobby brother? Xue Wenzhe was stunned for a moment, and then his face stiffened, he hadn't forgotten that last summer, his lobby brother went to Yiyang City to propose to the Ji family. At that time, his mother also took him to the annex to visit, and after he learned about it, he made a big fuss, and he didn't see this cousin in the end. Although he later heard that the marriage was not negotiated, he still did not have a good impression of this "lobby brother", and he had the impression that the other party was a gentleman who intended to get involved with the person he liked.

Xue Wenzhe raised his head and saw a young man in brocade clothes sitting on his father's left side. He looked a few years older than him, smiling, and a hypocrite, and a little familiar.

Xue Wenzhe ignored the familiarity, secretly disdainful, and said in his heart that this lobby brother had a romantic face, and he didn't look like a good person.

"Why are you still stunned?"

Under the high pressure of Uncle Xue. Xue Wenzhe reluctantly shouted, "Brother Hall."

"Wen Zhe," Xue Rui nodded, his tone was close, and his surface work was not bad, "You lived in other places in previous years, and it was rare for us brothers to see each other, so we will move around more when we have time in the future, and there are not many heirs in our Xue family." It is more important to take care of each other. ”

Uncle Xue Tang nodded again and again, although he was angry, he didn't forget to take advantage of the situation to get closer to the relationship between the monk and the Shangshu Mansion, "That's right." I wanted to take him to see your grandfather a while ago, but I didn't come to the door when I heard that he was sick. Okay now? If it's convenient, I'll take this bastard boy to see him later. ”

"Grandfather is in good health, the fourth uncle doesn't need to worry," Xue Rui pointed at Xue Wenzhe and reminded him of the matter: "Let's ask this matter clearly."

Uncle Xue then turned his head to look at Xue Wenzhe, pulled down his face and asked, "You tell me honestly, did you get into trouble in the academy the afternoon before yesterday and injured someone?"

Xue Wenzhe was staring at Xue Rui in his heart, and suddenly listened to his father's question, dumbfounded, and suddenly Yu Xiaoxiu fell off the horse and fell bloody, and his face began to panic.

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, looking at his face, Uncle Xue Tang knew that there was indeed something wrong with Lu Dao, and slapped the table angrily: "You dare not say a word if you hurt someone, you are so bold, do you know that you almost killed someone!" People are now lying unconscious on the bed, and they are about to sue the official to arrest you and ask for the crime, do you know it!"

Xue Wenzhe was frightened by the two sentences, and stammered: "Dad, Dad, I didn't, I didn't mean to, it was he who fell off the horse, it has nothing to do with me, I didn't push him."

Xue Rui frowned, Yu Xiaoxiu would not lie about this matter, it was clear that Xue Wenzhe pushed him off the horse, and now he is still arguing, why does the fourth uncle have such a son, and he is not angry.

"Fourth uncle, I heard from that child's classmates that many people have seen with their own eyes that it was Wen Zhe who hit people first and pushed people off the horse," Xue Rui said to Uncle Xue Tang with an embarrassed face, obviously worrying about Xue Wenzhe, but actually exposing his lies.

"You talk nonsense!" As soon as Xue Wenzhe saw Xue Rui, the fear just now disappeared, and he blushed and said angrily: "It's just, he fell down by himself!"

"Shut up!" Uncle Xue Tang roared, glared at Xue Wenzhe and said: "You son of a, no big or small, don't say anything if you hurt people, and dare to lie and deceive in front of your father, I don't think I will teach you a lesson today, you will do evil things of killing people and setting fire sooner or later!" Go, go and ask for family law, I'm going to teach this bastard a good lesson today!"

Xue Wenzhe had seen the power of family law, and when he saw that his father was going to move seriously, he was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he almost knelt down, which was because Xue Rui was present and didn't want to be embarrassed in front of his rival, so he stubbornly held on.

"Fourth uncle, fourth uncle, extinguish the fire, don't be angry first," Xue Rui pretended to persuade a few words, in fact, he was waiting for Xue Wenzhe to be beaten, and he turned around to explain to Yu Shu.

After a while, the person in charge entrusted the family law, a two-thick horse stick, and Xue Wenzhe's mother Liu came over at the same time.

"Master, why are you so angry, if you can't say anything well, why do you need to beat the child - Wen Zhe, don't kneel down for your father to admit his mistake."

Liu must have known Uncle Xue's temper, and he cried as soon as he came up, hugged Xue Wenzhe, beat him twice, and pushed him to kneel.

However, Xue Wenzhe was stubborn, he didn't bow his head alive or dead, and said aggrievedly: "What kind of father is he, he has left me outside for more than ten years, and as soon as he gets home, he beats me and scolds me, if he wants to beat me, beat me to death, I see where his son comes again."

His attitude is tantamount to adding insult to injury, Uncle Xue Tang originally had three points to be a drama godson in front of Xue Rui, but now he became really angry, he took two steps forward and grabbed the horse stick, and knocked on Xue Wenzhe, scolding while beating, Liu cried and blocked, the people were helpless, and they didn't dare to pull the master, and the house was suddenly a mess.

"Son of a, son of a sinister!"

"Master, sir, stop it!"

"Mother, don't stop, let him beat me to death!"

Xue Rui saw this situation, did not rush forward to dissuade him, silently counted how many sticks Xue Wenzhe received, and after falling to the ground, he coughed, stepped forward to grab Uncle Xue, and used a little strength to take off the horse stick and hand it over to the steward Nayuan, so as not to really make a mistake with people, then it would be boring.

Under Xue Rui's dissuasion and Liu's tears, Uncle Xue Tang stopped angrily, looking at this only son with love and hatred:

"Say, Why do you hurt!"

"Wen Zhe, say it quickly, don't make your father angry," Liu pushed his son, urging him.

Xue Wenzhe sat on the ground with his shoulders clutched, his eyes teary, and he said tremblingly, "Yes, they are not good, I am not wrong, they killed Star Swirl's grandfather, and she suffered and suffered."

Uncle Xue Tang didn't understand what it meant after listening to it for a long time, the Liu family was a little clear, the old lady of the Ji family was gone a few days ago, and sent someone to their house to inform her, she was reading the old feelings, and the day before yesterday she took Xue Wenzhe to the right judgment house to mourn, and heard some inside information, it seems that the Ji family is suffering today, it was framed by someone, and his son is looking forward to the Ji family's Sixiu, presumably because of this dispute with someone.

"Don't say it," Liu quickly interrupted Xue Wenzhe's words, lest he leak his thoughts about Ji Xingxuan, so he wiped his tears and said:

"Master, it's this child's fault, let him come to the door tomorrow to apologize to others, it's because I didn't discipline him strictly, you want to beat and punish, the concubine has listened, but the eldest nephew is present at this time, don't let him see the jokes again."

Xue Rui also said: "Fourth uncle, don't be angry, I have persuaded my friend not to sue the official, as long as Wen Zhe goes to make amends to others and prepares a generous gift, this matter will be settled."

Uncle Xue Tang glared at Xue Wenzhe fiercely, and sighed to Xue Rui: "Thanks to you for this trip, otherwise I would have been kept in the dark, this matter is a big trouble, and it is not ashamed, tomorrow, tomorrow I will let this bastard go to make amends to others, of course it is best to make a big thing small."

It's not that this Uncle Xue Tang is afraid of things, if he is an ordinary person, he will fight and fight, he will not be so on the line, but after all, Xue Rui came forward and asked him to know that if he didn't give an explanation, the other party would not give up, so he caught Xue Wenzhe and beat him.

After the decision was made, Xue Rui said goodbye, did not stay to mix in other people's housework, before leaving, he glanced at Xue Wenzhe on the ground, and shook his head secretly, just this temper and style, even if it is in the name of their Xue family, it is indispensable to suffer a loss when walking in Anling City in the future, I hope that he will learn a lesson this time and be able to remember it for a long time.

Xue Rui left, Uncle Xue sent him out of the house, Xue Wenzhe's mother and son were left in the house, Liu called someone, carefully helped Xue Wenzhe up, carried him back into the room, called someone to call Langzhong, opened the next person, and Lu asked his son alone:

"Wen Zhe, you tell your mother, the day before yesterday evening, my mother took you to Ji's house to mourn, which one did you listen to, if Old Lady Ji was killed? Did Star Swirl tell you?"

Xue Wenzhe avoided the wound, lay on the bed with grinned teeth, and said unhappily:

"Mother, it's not Star Swirl, she doesn't like to speak ill of people behind her back."

"Who's that?"

"Yes, it's the maid next to her, called Yunhe." (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to u8 novel () to register as a member to read, your support is my biggest motivation. )
