Chapter 290: Xue Pan went far away
Aunt Xue couldn't help crying on the side, moved by the reunion of mother and daughter.
Xue Baochai frowned.
Xiangling is already his brother's person, but I'm afraid that I can't let Xiangling go.
But Xiangling's mother came here, and there were people from the government to accompany her, and if their family didn't let them go, it would be difficult to do.
Xue Baochai thought to himself, it would be nice if there was a way to get the best of both worlds.
Mrs. Zhen took out the silver and asked for forgiveness for taking her daughter.
The silver was given by Feng Ziying and Jia Huan, Feng Ziying sympathized with the two mothers and daughters, and Jia Huan was to watch the excitement of the Xue family.
Aunt Xue was very embarrassed, although she sympathized with the Zhen family's mother and daughter, she knew in her heart that her son would not let Xiangling leave easily.
Sure enough, Xue Pan didn't let Xiangling go at all, and asked someone to drive Mrs. Zhen out.
At this time, the people in the official mansion who accompanied Mrs. Zhen came forward.
Both of them are small officials, and they are generally not looked at by Aunt Xue.
Xue Pan will not give face to the little officials, and even let his subordinates drive the little officials out.
Although the two officials don't have any cards, they are from Shuntianfu.
The Xue family doesn't give Shuntianfu face so much, and Shuntianfu can bear it.
A large group of officials from Shuntian Mansion came to the door and directly kidnapped Xue Pan.
Aunt Xue was so frightened that she hurried to Mrs. Wang to rescue Xue Pan.
After Mrs. Wang knew what had happened, she knew that such a thing could not put Xue Pan to death.
In addition to regretting, Mrs. Wang took the opportunity to extort tens of thousands of taels of silver from Aunt Xue, saying that she was spending money to help dredge it.
Ninety percent of them were greedy for ink by Mrs. Wang, and she only took out one-tenth of it and asked Zhou Rui to go to Shuntian Mansion Yin with the silver ticket and Jia Zheng's post.
Shuntianfu Yin is the emperor's confidant, and he has a position with the emperor and looks down on these nobles of the four kings and eight princes.
However, this matter is very simple to deal with, and Yin of Shuntian Mansion accepted the silver ticket with peace of mind and took out a part of it and distributed it to his subordinates.
Shuntian Mansion Yin told Zhou Rui that as long as the Xue family let Xiangling free, Xue Pan would be able to get out of prison here.
Zhou Rui reported the words to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang told Aunt Xue in turn.
After Aunt Xue went back, she immediately put Xiangling's deed of sale, and she didn't even ask for the redemption silver, and gave Xiangling's mother and daughter a hundred taels of silver.
Xiangling was worried that Xue Pan would come to her and her mother again after she was released from prison, and after discussing with Mrs. Zhen, the two decided to leave the capital as soon as possible.
Feng Ziying was a good person to the end, and asked his subordinates to contact the two mothers and daughters with a reliable caravan, and asked them to follow the caravan south and return to their hometown Gusu.
Although the Zhen family was burned down, the land is still there.
It's located in a bustling and lively area, and the land is not cheap.
Mrs. Zhen simply sold the land to the monopoly, exchanged it for money, and then bought a small courtyard in the city, and the mother and daughter moved into it.
Feng Ziying, Jia Huan and Aunt Xue gave Mrs. Zhen a lot of silver, and Mrs. Zhen used the silver to buy two shops and rent them out.
The annual rent is enough for the daily life of the two mothers and daughters.
And the two of them are not sitting on the empty side, they do embroidery work to sell, and they can also have a lot of income every time.
Two years later, Mrs. Zhen recruited an honest man to come in as a door-to-door son-in-law.
This man is very filial to Mrs. Zhen, and he loves and respects Zhen Yinglian even more.
Mrs. Zhen felt that she should give her son-in-law a little sweetness and allowed Zhen Yinglian's second son to have a man's surname.
The man was overjoyed and treated the Zhen family's mother and daughter better.
Zhen Yinglian can be regarded as a bitter and sweet come, and her life since then has been mediocre, but her children are around her knees, which is very satisfying.
After Xue Pan was released, he was depressed.
He only felt that he had lost all his face, and he had no face to see his relatives and friends, so he simply pretended to be sick at home.
In a blink of an eye, it was almost the end of the year, and the shopkeepers of the Xue family's shop came to the Xue family to report the accounts.
One of the shopkeepers said: "This year's paper is short of spices, and next year will be expensive." Next year, I will send my children up to take care of them in the pawnshop, and I will sell some paper incense fans to sell before Duanyang. In addition to the cost of customs duties, you can also get several times the interest. ”
When Xue Pan heard this, his heart moved, and he thought: "Now that I am beaten and imprisoned, it is difficult to see people, and I want to hide for a year and a half, but I have nowhere to hide." It's not a problem to pretend to be sick every day. It's better to go out into business and go out for a year with Zhang Dehui. It doesn't matter if you make money, or if you don't make money, and hide and hide. The second is to visit the landscape, which is also good. ”
made up his mind, Xue Pan told Aunt Xue in the evening.
Although Aunt Xue is reluctant to let her son go far away, her son is there to do business, which is a growth.
Therefore, even if he was reluctant, he was happy, and only said: "Then if you bring more people, I can rest assured." ”
Xue Pan nodded vigorously, saying that he would definitely bring more people, and he also knew that it was not peaceful outside.
After Xue Baochai heard this, he was happy in his heart and said with a smile: "My brother is really going to go through the right thing, it's good." Now that he was thinking of going out to do business, his mother looked at the eight hundred or one thousand pieces of silver that had been lost, and gave it to him to try. Hengzhi has the help of the guys, and he may not be embarrassed to coax him. Second, he went out, there were no people to help the fun on the left and right, and there was no one to rely on, and when he went outside, who was still afraid of whom, who had something to eat, and those who had nothing to eat, and he was hungry, and he had nothing to rely on. ”
Aunt Xue nodded: "That's exactly what Li'er." ”
The mother and daughter then helped Xue Pan salute, arranged six personal servants for Xue Pan, hired three carts, pulled luggage and goods, and hired four long mules. Xue Pan rode a big mule raised by his family, prepared a horse, said goodbye to Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai, and left the capital.
Jia Huan only heard about it two days after Xue Pan left.
The only male member of the Xue family left, and the mother and daughter of the Xue family were sad for several days.
Xue Baochai asked Aunt Xue to live with her in the Grand View Garden to accompany her.
Aunt Xue refused.
Nominally, Wuyuan is Xue Baochai's residence, but it is actually Jia's family.
Aunt Xue couldn't move in without the consent of the Jia family.
Aunt Xue said: "Lixiangyuan is not far from the courtyard where your aunt lives, I live in Lixiangyuan, and I can go to your aunt's place every day to chat." Living in the Grand View Garden is not so convenient. ”
Xue Baochai then rested his thoughts about letting Aunt Xue live in Wuyuan.
She returned to Daguan Garden with the maid and found that Lin Daiyu had been taken to live in Daguan Garden again.
Xue Baochai smiled and went to play with Lin Daiyu.
Now Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai have no conflict of interest, and Xue Baochai loves to play with Lin Daiyu.
Although Lin Daiyu knew Xue Baochai's careful thoughts, she liked Xue Baochai's talent very much and didn't mind being friends with Xue Baochai.
Two excellent girls chatted and tasted poetry together, and the relationship is getting better and better, and now they are a pair of good sisters.
Xue Baochai felt that the Xiaoxiang Pavilion was too cold and unsuitable for people to live in except in summer, so he often invited Lin Daiyu to live with him in Wuyuan.
