Xue Qing hurriedly found clothes from the sick pavilion and changed them, and the two little maids also hurriedly changed their clothes. After changing their clothes, the three of them had to comb their heads and hair ornaments and put them on, and they ran into Xue Qing's wound in anxiety.

"Oops!"

The little girl was in tears, and she gritted her teeth and straightened the sleeves of her clothes. She greeted beaming and smug with a burst of warning. Don't say anything about the injuries she got outside, and don't say what she did when she went out.

The two little maids nodded and swore an oath, and Xue Qing relieved himself and took the two of them to Lanfang Courtyard.

In the inner hall of Lanfang Courtyard, Mrs. Xue sat on the Taishi chair in the middle of the room, and a young man with a long and jade body stood aside elegantly and squarely, replying to Mrs. Xue's question.

"Big brother, you're back!"

Hearing Xue Qing's yellow oriole-like voice coming from outside, Mrs. Xue's eyebrows and eyes smiled, and even the jade-like young man had a gentle smile on his face.

Xue Yu was wearing a light blue scholarly shirt from Yuelu Academy, and it was also printed with the academy's courtyard flower, the proud blue lotus. That Qinglian has the meaning of honesty and integrity, which is to remind the students of the college to be honest and honest.

Xue Yu's eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, just like the fairy in the painting, and his appearance is very good, so everyone in the academy calls him a jade lang. Xue Qing walked quickly to Xue Yu's side, pounced on Xue Yu, and threw himself into Xue Yu's arms. It happened too suddenly, and it was too late for Xue Yu to stop him, so he had to hurriedly catch the little body that rushed towards him, and said to Xue Qing with a displeased face:

"Qing'er, don't make trouble. You have grown up, and men and women are not at the same table at the age of seven, and you can't be so ignorant in the future. Being seen by others will say that you are frivolous and uneducated. ”

When Xue Qing rushed towards Xue Yu, she knew that the brother who was self-denying and polite would definitely count her down, and she got tired of Xue Yu and withdrew from his embrace, and said to Xue Yu unconvinced.

"You are polite, but you pushed me away! Talking so much about breaking the rules, keeping a straight face all day long, how boring. ”

After Xue Qing finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue at Xue Yu, turned around and threw herself at Mrs. Xue, she was tired of being in Mrs. Xue's arms, and squeezed her eyebrows at Xue Yu.

"Mother, my eldest brother always bullies me! Teach me his teachings, he just came back like this, if I let my eldest brother stay at home, how miserable I would be! ”

Mrs. Xue smiled gently, looked at her gentle and dignified son, and then looked at her lively and playful daughter, and felt very relieved. She raised her hand and scratched Xue Qing's little nose, and pinched her little daughter's little head, the doting look made people jealous.

"Your eldest brother behaves according to rules and etiquette, unlike you. It's a broken monkey. In the future, you must listen carefully to what your eldest brother says, and you are not allowed to make petty trouble with your eldest brother. ”

"Huh? Mother, you are so gentle with me, just to let me listen to my eldest brother? Xue Qing looked at his mother aggrievedly, and then timidly looked at the upright and rigid eldest brother standing aside. Although they are several years apart, the eldest brother has an old-fashioned appearance, no, it should be said that his upright and inflexible appearance really makes Xue Qing a little timid.

"Mother? Where did Qing'er make her petty? Qing'er is the most well-behaved. Xue Qing took Mrs. Xue's hand and didn't let go, looking at her mother with tears in her eyes, and her pitiful appearance suddenly made Mrs. Xue's heart soften.

Xue Yu was very helpless when she saw this, every time she pretended to be a little pitiful and her tears were full, her mother would be captured. Sure enough, seeing Xue Qing's teary eyes, Mrs. Xue hurriedly said:

"Okay, okay, Qing'er is the most well-behaved, Qing'er is the most sensible. Don't let your big brother take care of you! Xue Qing got her mother's answer, smiled with satisfaction, and the little face with teardrops immediately bloomed.

"Why is Qing'er's face red?" Helping Xue Qing wipe away her tears, Mrs. Xue looked at the place where Xue Qing was smeared red by Zhang Luo under her eyes and asked puzzledly.

"It's nothing, it's just crying too sadly." She couldn't tell her mother that she was touched by a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy. Although his original intention was to wipe his tears, being touched on the face was touched.

"I feel sorry for my mother. When my mother comes back, there are a lot of things for my mother to deal with. Mother didn't want to pay attention to it, but we can't let others dominate the power of the house and oppress us! It's only to blame that after your father took his wife, he still had to take a concubine. Alas! ”

Mrs. Xue shook her head helplessly, although Mrs. Xue didn't go to any aunt these days, she paid special attention to the concubine. He saw that Mrs. Xue had invited Mr. to Xue Qing, so he also planned to invite Mr. to the other two.

That concubine was arranged to enter Taixue early, and studied with the heirs of the powerful in Beijing, without any disadvantage, I heard that Xue Yu was going to take the imperial examination, and Wen Qing insisted that Xue An also take the exam. It's a pity that Xue An is not angry, and he hasn't even passed the Taixue academic exam, let alone participated in the exam.

"Mother, I looked at a few embroidery villages today, and I think I can improve the appearance of my own embroidery villages, and change a single Beijing style into a variety of national styles. The costumes in many places in our Celestial Empire are very distinctive and beautiful. We can use these clothes to pull the fashion and trends of the powerful, so that we will definitely make a lot of money. ”

"Qing'er, you want to do business?" Xue Yu was stunned as she listened to her sister's words. She's a ten-year-old girl who wants to make money? He also talked about making money. It's just that in this Celestial Empire, businessmen have the least status, and once their sister enters the business industry, it will be difficult to marry a good family in the future.

Xue Qing listened to Xue Yu's words and said to Xue Yu seriously:

"Well, brother, you don't know, our family is so poor that we can't open the pot."

Mrs. Xue was embarrassed for a while when she heard Xue Qing's words, her daughter was a little too much.

"Ahem, Qing'er, it's not that serious."

"Why is it not serious, I have calculated, according to the current situation, there are only four words left in our Taifu Mansion."

"What four words?"

Xue Yu saw that Xue Qing's serious appearance was extremely serious when he spoke, and he unconsciously wanted to know what his situation was.

"Sit and eat empty. Our family will be wiped out in less than two years. Unless the eldest brother marries a noble girl from a noble family and earns a large dowry back, we will wait to drink the northwest wind. ”

Xue Qing's determined tone and unquestionable attitude when he spoke made Xue Yu and Mrs. Xue have to face this problem. Is it really that the situation in our own country has really reached this point?

"Mama Fu, you bring all the account books, I'll check them."

It was very terrifying for Mrs. Xue to be in color, Xue Yu and Xue Qing saw that Mrs. Xue was going to do something, and they pushed out the inner hall one after another.

"Big brother, when are you going to marry a sister-in-law for me? We don't have anyone in the family to keep me company. ”

"Aren't there still two sisters, Xue Lan and Xue Fang? Go back and talk to my father and let you learn from my husband together. "Xue Yu still has a few other cousins and sisters in his heart, after all, they are all members of the Xue family, and they have the blood of the Xue family.

"No, big brother, do you really think they can be my family? On the day I first came back, Xue Fang poisoned me, made me vomit for a long time, and steamed it in a steamer. ”
