Chapter 094: The Xue Family

Early the next morning, Xue Changqing and his wife entered Beijing.

The couple took their children and drove a decent carriage to Chang'an Hutong, and their hearts were still trembling.

I don't know what happened in the capital yesterday, so I suddenly sealed the city gate. Today, they got up before dawn, and when they lined up in the long procession to enter the city, they could no longer see the facial features of the guards guarding the door.

Fortunately, everything went well, because of the post of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the guards guarding the city treated their family very favorably, and called him and his wife very faceless!

"Husband, look at this capital, how magnificent!"

Xue Changqing's wife, Liu, is so old that it is the first time to enter Beijing, and everything she sees is fresh.

"Our sister-in-law is really lucky, she is a lady who is a lot taller than her aunt, and she is a lot taller! Tsk......"

Liu's heart was sour, and when he looked at Xue Changqing again, his eyes showed disdain.

When the old lady of the Xue family was alive, he was the leader of the Xue family in Meizhou, but when it fell into the hands of Xue Changqing, the family was only left with an ancestral house and a hundred acres of land that could support the faΓ§ade, and he couldn't even get a decent shop.

Xue Changqing is a pretentious person, who has been reading poetry and books for ten years, and is just an unknown talent. I still look down on those who farm and do business, and the life of this Xue Mansion is not as good as day by day. If it weren't for the old lady of the Li family who fell in love with her sister-in-law, I am afraid that she would not be able to step into the capital half a step in her life!

Xue Changqing couldn't listen to Liu's words the most, and kept the word aunt on his lips all day long, and mentioned that Xue Suqin was going to be carried into the door by the Prime Minister's Mansion whenever he met people, I really don't know what to say!

But the life of the Xue family is not easy at the moment, in order to provide Xue Suqin with Beijing, he spent a lot of savings to buy clothes and jewelry for her. Now the life in the house is counting on the Liu family's dowry.

Xue Changqing quietly glanced at the Liu family, stiffened his body and said:

"After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion for a while, you can't be so talkative and make people see a joke."

Liu lowered his head and teased his son and daughter, and said absentmindedly:

"The province of the province! Even if the sister-in-law just marries into the second room of the Li family, it is worth it! As long as I can get close to the Li family, I will definitely be able to find a good errand for you in the future, and what can I not be satisfied with at that time? ”

Xue Changqing's eyes showed satisfaction, Liu's words really spoke to his heart!

What glory can an aunt bring to his Xue family? The future of the Xue family still depends on him, Xue Changqing!

With the Xiangfu family, are you afraid that he won't be able to get an official and a half-job?

Thinking like this, Xue Changqing's face was filled with joy, and he asked the coachman to wave his whip, and the carriage ran quickly.

When I arrived at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I looked up and saw that the three huge gilt characters almost blinded the eyes of the two!

"Rui Wangfu?"

Xue Changqing was a little stunned, muttering in his heart that it shouldn't be the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong?

Liu was illiterate, handed over a pair of children to the mother-in-law sitting in front of the car, and turned his face to ask Xue Changqing:

"What? Could it be that we are in the wrong place? ”

As soon as the words fell, a well-dressed little maid walked out of it.

Seeing that this little girl was dressed better than the material on her body, Liu Shi hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and asked with a shy smile:

"Dare to ask this girl, this is the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong?"

The little girl frowned, looked Liu up and down carefully, and then looked at Xue Changqing behind her, and said:

"Our Zhongyong Marquis Mansion has been personally named the Rui Wang's Mansion the day before yesterday, and Madame hasn't heard of it?"

Liu's heart jumped, and he hurriedly glanced at Xue Changqing behind him, with a surprise on his face that could not be hidden.

"Oops! What a great event! ”

Liu covered his lips and smiled, and explained to the maid,

"We just came from Meizhou, we don't know about it yet, we must say hello to the old lady today!"

When the little maid heard that the woman in front of her had mentioned the old lady, she couldn't help but wonder:

"Madame, which house in Meizhou is from? I don't know that our palace has not seen outsiders recently? ”

Liu Shi was stunned, holding the handkerchief and exclaiming:

"Don't see outsiders? How could this be? ...... We are the Xue family in Meizhou, and the ancestor and the old lady are cousins......"

As soon as the maid heard this, her face immediately changed, and she said coldly:

"It was originally Aunt Xue's house......"

After speaking, without waiting for Liu's reaction, he turned around and called out a small servant, whispered a few words to him, and said to Liu:

"Mrs. Xue go in, don't make our old lady wait for a long time."

The little maid put down a sentence, bowed to the Xue family and his wife, and went out without looking back, leaving Xue Changqing and the Liu family looking at each other.

"Please!"

The little guy looked at the two of them, his face was not enthusiastic, Xue Changqing even noticed a hint of shame, he was a little inexplicable, but it was not easy to ask. The two of them glanced at each other, and could only straighten their clothes and enter the door.

The little servant brought the Xue family's coachman into the yard, arranged for him to have tea in a small flower hall, and raised his head to ask Liu:

"Madame, do you want to leave the son and the girl here to rest?"

"No, no...... The children can't live without me......"

The Liu family has already calculated that the child is still young, and it is the first time to come to the door, so Mrs. Li has to stuff a decent meeting gift.

When the little maid saw her say this, she didn't force it. The Liu family led a pair of children, and asked the mother-in-law to carry the gift and follow behind Xue Changqing.

This Li family is not an ordinary style!

Carved beams and paintings, nine curves of the corridor, Liu who watched all the way was dumbfounded.

Hearing some noise in the courtyard to the west, Liu stopped and craned his neck to look.

"Dare to ask my little brother, is there a family over there that is doing a funeral?"

The little servant froze, looked at the other end of the Qiutang Courtyard, glanced at the Liu family again, and sneered:

"That's our second master's Qiutang Courtyard, and I'm holding a funeral for the second lady today."

The Liu family sighed in his heart, this Li family is really wealthy, and the courtyard as big as the west is still the prime minister's!

Xue Changqing heard something and said in surprise:

"You just said...... The second lady is gone? ”

The little guy snorted, didn't speak, and turned his face away.

Liu's eyes lit up!

Isn't her sister-in-law about to be carried into the second room? But now that the second lady is gone, then she ...... Wouldn't she have had a chance to fill the house?

The joy in Liu's eyes was too conspicuous, Xue Changqing hurriedly covered his lips and coughed, and Liu's came back to his senses. Fang Xiang quietly tugged on Xue Changqing's sleeve, whispered a few words to him, and asked the little guy to urge a few times.

The Liu family was helpless, so he had to suppress the excitement in his heart, took a pair of children, and followed behind Xue Changqing in a proper manner.

After walking for a long time, I arrived in front of Mrs. Li's Hua'an Hall, and Liu's eyes were shining in the three-deep courtyard! Good boy! What shit luck did her sister-in-law go! can marry such a family!

Mo said that she is an aunt, she is just a maid, and she is more expensive than the lady next to her!

Xue Changqing glared at the Liu family, who couldn't get on the stage, and gritted his teeth with hatred.

The little maid entered the courtyard and said goodbye, and in a moment, two maids came out and saluted the couple.

One took the mother-in-law and the children to Huxia for a snack, and the other led the husband and wife inside.

Liu leaned over to the child, and when he saw that the Prime Minister was so particular, he naturally didn't dare to say much, so he took the gift box in his mother-in-law's hand and followed in.

The husband and wife raised their feet and crossed the threshold of the inner hall, and they heard Mrs. Li say coldly:

"Someone! Bring me the Xue family in! ”

Liu's feet softened when he heard the sound, and he fell down holding the gift box......
