Chapter 48: The Head of the Family

Zhang Lu and Huo Ran got up, glanced at each other, sat down at the same time, and continued to drink tea and chat leisurely.

"When the uncle comes back, he must go to the backyard to report his safety first, and when the uncle summons me, it is estimated that it will take three or two hours." Doctor Lu shook his head and said.

Steward Zhang also laughed: "Uncle is the time when his blood is strong, and this farewell is a month time, so naturally I want to vent well, so let's wait with peace of mind." ”

He instructed the little guy who listened to their conversation and smiled warmly: "Go and call Ding Yuan's nursing homes, and wake up those who are not worth it, don't wait for the uncle to come out of the backyard, and still sleep there, the uncle doesn't have much patience." ”

The little guy got the order and ran away again.

Sure enough, as Dr. Lu said, Xue Dongyuan went to the backyard as soon as he came back, and he waited for three hours before coming out, and it took more than two hours just to be with the beautiful concubine Lu.

It's really energetic.

The people waiting in the outer study were also like the little guy before, smiling warmly, waiting for Xue Dongyuan to meet his physiological needs, and then come to the outer study to ask.

Xue Dongyuan is twenty-five this year, tall, dignified, extremely handsome facial features, and he is calm and calm in his gestures, and he has a bit of a gentle and elegant bearing.

has earned such a large family business at such a young age, not only supporting two rooms, but also so many domestic servants and maids, it can really be said that he is young and promising, and he is in his prime.

He was so young, even in the outer study, more than half of the people were older than him, but no one dared to underestimate him.

He wore a dark dark flower cloud satin plate collar robe, covered with a black inlaid velvet with gold trim moire, and wore an amber bun hair crown, with a mutton fat jade cloud hairpin in the crown.

With a smile on his face, Xue Dongyuan raised his hand and motioned for them to get up.

He walked behind the bookcase, sat on the Taishi chair padded with thick velvet satin, and asked everyone to talk about the big and small things that happened after he left the Xue family.

There are more than a dozen people sitting or standing in this outer study at the moment, but they start with the nursing home first, and finally Ding Yuan, Doctor Lu, and Steward Zhang.

Xue Dongyuan and Steward Zhang have known each other for the longest time, and with a slight look from Steward Zhang, Xue Dongyuan knew that something unusual must have happened.

He patiently listened to the reports of the nurses, and saw that everything was fine at home during the time he left, and his mood was obviously very good, so his tone was very gentle: "During the time I entered Beijing, you have worked hard, from today onwards, I will give you five days off, and you will go to the tent to receive the reward for a while, and I have prepared a big gift for everyone." Okay, let's all go down, and when Steward Zhang arranges the date, you can take turns to rest. ”

Everyone's faces showed joy, knowing that the gift Xue Dongyuan said would not be thin, they couldn't help but be very happy, and responded with their fists clasped in unison: "Yes, I will thank you for the reward." ”

Everyone rushed out, leaving only Steward Zhang, Doctor Lu and Ding Yuan.

What the three of them want to talk about is about Lu Yang.

They spoke in great detail, not even missing a single detail.

Xue Dongyuan listened silently.

The hand he put on the bookcase was slender and well-jointed, and it was even more slender and beautiful than a woman's hand, which showed that he was also well-maintained on weekdays.

After listening to their narration, Xue Dongyuan was silent for a while, and his eyes were a little drifting, as if he was caught in some kind of reminiscence, as if he was talking to them, and as if he was talking to himself: "My leg hurts." ”

He didn't say this to ask a question, and the three of them didn't answer very knowingly.

Xue Dongyuan was silent for a moment, his fingers tapping the book case slowly, and one by one it seemed to hit their hearts, making them nervous for no reason.

After a while, Xue Dongyuan sighed faintly, "Why do you want to come back, can't you stay in Guyu Village well, I have already let you go twice, why do you have to come back." ”

Steward Zhang and Dr. Lu both quietly breathed a sigh of relief: Uncle really wants to rectify the eldest lady.

But Ding Yuan was excited because he finally got Xue Dongyuan's trust: Uncle told such a secret thing in front of him, didn't he trust himself? Didn't you see that the nursing homes were all sent out?

But then, Xue Dongyuan's face suddenly sank.

He always has a smile on his face on weekdays, and he always gives people a feeling of getting along very well, so that people who see him for the first time can't help but feel that he is gentle and close, but in fact, this is just a appearance.

His face sank, and he was covered with a haze, like a dark cloud.

Before he could speak, Steward Zhang took the lead in kneeling down as soon as his legs were weak, and when Dr. Lu and Ding Yuan saw this, they also knelt on the ground.

"Know it's wrong?" Xue Dongyuan sneered.

Steward Zhang replied tremblingly: "The little one knows his mistakes, the little one shouldn't be the one who takes his own hands, the uncle will punish the small one if he wants to punish him, and the little one will never complain, and he is willing to accept the punishment." ”

Following Xue Dongyuan for many years, Steward Zhang knew that in front of Xue Dongyuan, it was far more useful to take the initiative to admit his mistakes than to explain in a hurry.

Don't look at Xue Dongyuan's youth, his methods are more cruel than anyone Steward Zhang has ever seen, and it is precisely because he is young that he is already the head of the family, and he has so many people under his hands, it is inevitable that he will be a little complacent, in recent years, his temper has become more and more irrepressible, and he does not allow others to disobey him at all.

In Datong Mansion, there is no one Xue Dongyuan is afraid of, even if it is the king of prayer who guards Datong, Xue Dongyuan does not take it seriously.

"Punishment is naturally punished." Xue Dongyuan's face sank like water, making people unable to see through what he was thinking.

Ding Yuan didn't know how powerful Xue Dongyuan was, he didn't turn pale like Zhang Lu and the others, and his legs and stomachs trembled, but he was also affected by the almost frozen atmosphere in the room and lightened his breath, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

After Xue Dongyuan put down that sentence, he didn't say a word, and his right hand, which was more beautiful and slender than a woman, tapped the desk rhythmically, again and again, as if time had stopped, and only the dull sound of 'knock knock' remained.

Ding Yuan couldn't figure out how Xue Dongyuan was going to punish them, did he want them to kneel here all the time? After all, he is young, his heart is not as calm as Zhang Lu and the others, he has been kneeling for a long time, he has a little drum in his heart, and secretly raised his head to look at Xue Dongyuan's expression, but the moment he just raised his head, he vaguely saw a trace of extremely small cold flashing in his eyes, he thought he was dazzled, and when he wanted to take a closer look, he heard a very slight 'poof' sound in his ears, and the collarbone suddenly seemed to be bitten by an ant.

He was surprised and inexplicable, and when he looked at Xue Dongyuan again, he found that he was looking at him with a smile, and hurriedly lowered his head, only feeling extremely frightened in his heart.
