Raven Hung Bridge.

In the rain curtain, a car stopped in the center, horses tied to the forest, and more than ten Beishan guards hid in the forest to avoid the rain. In front of the Yahong Bridge, because it was still early at this time, Li Weijian and his entourage did not plan to stay here, but waited for the showers to stop and start again.

As soon as the horse came, the knight was dressed in a cloak and flew off his horse when he got close, and gently buttoned in front of the carriage. After a while, the car door opened, and Wu Zhong, who was dressed in a robe, arched his hand and said, "Master, I only bought a copy of the Di newspaper three days ago." ”

"It would be nice to have." Li Weijian took it and ordered: "You also go to shelter from the rain." ”

Wu Zhong retreated in response and went to talk to the Beishan guards. Li Weijian closed the car door, unfolded the newspaper to look at it, glanced at it slightly, and immediately laughed.

The first article in the Di newspaper was that Dali Temple found out that the silver money raised by Shanxi coal mine stocks, and most of them entered the mansion of King Zhongshun, and the sage was furious and ordered King Zhongshun to return all the proceeds raised. And because there was no order before, it was because the saint only reprimanded him, and strictly ordered the loyal king to guard the gate and not to raid the people's fat and ointment.

Today's saints are masters who don't rub sand in their eyes, and millions of silver dollars don't know where they go, so how can saints sit idly by? This time, the king of Zhongshun ate chicken and rice, and he was expected to be indignant.

Looking further back, it is sparse in various places, and it is urgent to say that the fire is returned to the public, because of the great differences in various places. In the rich land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, you can earn a lot of money if you collect a little less; In the remote land of Yungui, plus three points is not enough for the yamen's expenses.

Li Weijian secretly thought that this was the disadvantage of the imperial power not being lower than the county. As far as he knows, now the tax collection is all issued by the county yahufang, and the little official received the ticket and went to the countryside to urge grain. Most of the small officials are native to their hometowns, and they have a lot of collusion with the gentry, and there are endless things about flying and trickery.

The total number of acres of land cannot be changed, so make a fuss about the upper, middle and lower fields. As a result, the gentry and the big households are all inferior land, and the small people are mostly good land.

With such a shift, how can the taxes borne by the small people be more than 30 taxes?

However, Chen Hongmou of the New Party planned to re-check the acres of land and also intended to raise the commercial tax, and as soon as this proposal came out, it caused an uproar in the government and the opposition, and the voices of condemnation of Chen Hongmou were endless, and they flew to Beijing like snowflakes.

Li Weijian touched his chin and secretly thought, this is poking the lungs of the gentry! It's just a few acres, so how many coins will be produced? Moreover, Taizong has long had a law to strictly investigate the encroachment of land, which is based on the fact that the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River have few acres of land in their homes.

There is less land, so it is natural to make up for it from other livelihoods, so the industrial and commercial trade in Jiangnan is prosperous.

Fortunately, Taizong Li Guo did not learn from Zhu Yuanzhang's rules and regulations, otherwise with the heart of a saint, he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the pressure from the gentry.

Li Weijian thought for a while, it seems that the best way is to set up a tax police, change the coinage to two yuan, and then implement the tax system?

If you are not in her position, you can talk to your teacher Yan Xiyao about this matter later.

There was a lot of nonsense behind the newspaper, and after a few glances, Li Weijian threw it down.

On this trip, Li Weijian was extremely satisfied. Not to mention the three new blast furnaces, the two open-hearth furnaces can also produce steel day and night, which is quite stable.

The next step is to build a series of processing plants around Letin. Rolling mills, continuous casting workshops, long product factories, wire rod factories, plate mills, etc., the required equipment must be specially designed and built.

Thinking of this section, Li Weijian couldn't help but sigh, it really has a long way to go.

The rain poured outside, and after a few moments it stopped completely.

The Beishan guards who sheltered from the rain in the forest led their horses out of the forest, and Wu Zhong came to report in a robe: "Master, do you want to rest in front?" ”

Li Weijian shook his head and said: "Buy some food and leave, it has been raining recently, and I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Beijing in time if I am late." ”

Wu Zhongying went down, opened the road first, led a group of people to wait for the set, bought some meat buns, sauce donkey meat, and distributed them to everyone. The Beishan guards did not have to dismount to eat and drink, but rode while eating and drinking. After crossing the Yahong Bridge, the mountains in front are high and dense, and the road is winding.

A Beishan guard took out fresh meat and fed Hai Dongqing on his shoulder, shouting and commanding, and Hai Dongqing rose to the sky with a 'whoo'. Circling around the mountains and forests, suddenly there was a cry again.

The guard frowned, and hurriedly caught up with Wu Zhongdao: "There is someone ahead." ”

Wu Zhong reined in his horse, reached out and grabbed the ash rod with his hand, and asked, "How many?" ”

The guard looked up at Hai Dongqing, counted for a long time before saying, "Ten up." ”

Wu Zhong said hesitantly: "Barren mountains and wild mountains, where are so many people from? We're hitting a shear beam. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand back, and the guards took off the short bows they were carrying and loaded their rapid-fire archery boxes. Wu Zhongdou turned back, went to the carriage and said, "Master, I'm afraid there is a strong beam ahead." ”

"Just send it away."

"Yes."

Wu Zhong led the order to return, pointed out the three horses, and followed them to open the way. At this time, Li Weijian opened the car door, and saw the four horsemen hidden at the end of the road, and suddenly heard the sound of 'bang bang bang' sparsely, and Li Weijian suddenly changed color: "There is a fire gun?" ”

In the blink of an eye, he saw the three horsemen coming back from their suicides, and Wu Zhong pulled the horse and shouted: "I don't know where to come from, but there are only five or six firearms, follow me around and go back, and kill him by surprise!" ”

At that moment, several guards caught up, and more than ten horsemen drew bows and arrows, and they fought in the forest in a moment.

Li Weijian first breathed a sigh of relief, and then his heart sank, and he secretly said that it was not good. The guards were all called away by Wu Zhong, and there was only one coachman left by his side.

Li Weijian reached out and touched his waist, and at this moment, he heard a muffled snort, and the driver on the wheel fell down in response to the sound and fell under the car. Immediately, two people rushed out of the forest, one was armed with a red tassel spear, and the other was armed with a Yanling knife, and the latter shouted: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, capture this official first, and then turn around and go to rescue the brothers!" ”

The former echoed, and the two of them came close in an instant. I saw Li Weijian take out something from his waist and aim it at the two of them. The one who was holding a single knife first knew that it was powerful, and hurriedly shrank back to dodge: "There is a fire gun!" ”

Bang –

The smoke filled the air, and the man holding the red tassel gun was shot in the chest, and fell to his knees with a scream.

"Dog officer!" The man with a single knife was stunned and shouted, "I'll cut you!" ”

But seeing that Li Weijian still didn't put down the firearm in his hand, the man said: "Your firearm is single-piped, can you still shoot two shots?" ”

Li Weijian nodded seriously: "It's really possible." ”

"When death is imminent, you dare to coax me-"

Bang - bang!

"Ahem-" Li Weijian fanned the gunpowder smoke in the carriage, looked at the man who was stunned and fell to the ground, and took out a handcuff from his waist while muttering: "No one believes the truth these days, it's really unancient." ”

With that in mind, he jumped out of the carriage with a wary look on his face. After a cursory glance, the coachman had been hit by a dart in his throat and could not survive.

Two horses flew in front of them, but it was Wu Zhong and a guard. In an instant, before he got close, Wu Zhongfei fell off his horse, and raised his hand to shoot the thief in the chest.

Li Weijian hurriedly said: "Keep alive and ask what the origin is." ”

Wu Zhong stopped at this time, turned his head and bowed to Li Weijian and said, "I actually fell for the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, the small one-"

"Looking back, what's going on?"

Wu Zhongdao: "The thieves are vulnerable, and the carving has already collapsed, and the small ones let people catch them alive." ”

Li Weijian nodded, looked at the half-dead thief, and asked, "Why don't you report your name before you die?" Lang Zhong of the Military Reserve Institute of the Inner Government of this official, Li Weijian, the uncle of the Ling, if you report your name, you will not be able to go to the history books in the future. ”

The man who was shot in the chest opened his mouth and tilted his head in a fit of rage.

Li Weijian was stunned for a moment, only to feel that his saliva was in vain.

After a while, the guards really returned, except for one who was shot and died, and most of the rest were all tailed. After arresting two live mouths, Wu Zhong used a trick, stepped forward to split his muscles and bones, and spat on the man after only two blows.

Wu Zhong returned and reported to Li Weijian: "Master, this person said that they are from the gossip sect, and this time he followed the incense master to Zhili to do something big." ”

"Gossip Sect?"

Wu Zhong was originally from Shandong, and he knew about the Bagua Sect, so he hurriedly said: "The Bagua Sect is widely spread in Shandong, and five years ago, the sage ordered the governor of Shandong to investigate it, and since then the Bagua Sect has disappeared, and I don't want this to come out again." ”

Li Weijian accepted the revolver with only one bullet left, and said: "It's weird, take it back and throw it to the good students of the Shen Criminal Division for interrogation, I always feel that there is something else hidden in this matter." ”

Because they didn't know if there would be an ambush from the Bagua Sect in the future, Li Weijian and the others cleaned up the battlefield slightly, and set off again with two living mouths. This time, he only took the official road, and went straight to Beijing to return.

At this time, it was already the fifth day of the sixth month.

……………………………………………………

Rongguo Mansion.

Wang Xifeng freshened up, used it early, and was about to go to Mrs. Wang to listen to it, when he went out, he bumped into Li Kun walking out. The two of them gathered together to gossip a few words, and Li Kun suddenly pulled Wang Xifeng aside, and said in a low voice: "I went to the east yesterday and talked to Qiu Fang specifically. ”

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Sister Qiufang must be overjoyed. ”

Li Kun also said: "Joy is naturally joy, but it's just ...... I asked her privately if she used safflower or musk, but she was speechless for a long time, and even a few maids were blushing. It's also weird, do you know what shameful way to not do it? ”

Wang Xifeng pushed Li Kun with his hand: "Sister-in-law asked me this?" Who is going, I ask? ”

Li Kun said: "They are all from the past, what is there to say?" ”

Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "I only know these two things, at most there are sheep intestines and fish swim bladders?" ”

Li Kun frowned and said, "How do you use such pickles?" ”

Wang Xifeng didn't say anything more, every time Ping'er and Jia Lian had the same room, she was trying to catch up with Ping'er Tiankui just after the time, and the rest of the time was not allowed.

Li Kun didn't understand it, so he said: "That's it, the left and right are just trivial things, I'll take a step first." ”

Sister Feng said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is on an errand now, so I don't dare to slack off." Go for it. ”

Seeing Li Kun go away, Sister Feng went to Mrs. Wang first, and saw that there was nothing to do, so she returned to her small courtyard.

Now that Jia Jing's funeral has passed, Sister Feng is a lot more relieved. According to the usual practice, I called the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law from all over the place to give orders, and I did not rest until the hour was approaching.

Ping'er brought warm tea, Sister Feng held it in her hand, let the little maid Feng'er shake the fan, frowned and said: "It can be regarded as a little rest, is there anything else to do at home recently?" ”

Ping'er said: "It's not around, it's just that the third girl is still sick." ”

"Not already?"

Ping'er said: "The biological mother like that on the stall, she was so angry that she couldn't sleep at night, and a cool breeze blew, it is not easy to get cold in this summer, and it will take some time." ”

Wang Xifeng bowed slightly, thinking of Aunt Zhao, and suddenly remembered that Aunt Zhao had sued her before, saying that she was greedy for Aunt Zhao's monthly case.

Thinking around, Sister Feng instructed Feng'er: "You go, call Xiao Jixiang'er, Xiao Que, and Brother Huan'er together." ”

Feng'er responded, and the fan in his hand was taken by Ping'er, and then walked away quickly. After a while, Feng'er called someone to come, and the four little maids entered the hall tremblingly, and bowed down to Wang Xifeng in unison, saying, "I've seen the second grandmother." ”

Wang Xifeng said 'um', his eyes swept over the four little maids, and said: "The monthly rules in this house are all based on the rules, the first-class maid is one or two silver per month, the second-class maid is one hanging money, and the third-class maid is five hundred yuan.

According to the rules, all four of you are five hundred dollars. It was only when the money fell into the hands of each house that it was distributed from each house downwards. There is no difference between the rooms, and somehow, when it comes to your side, it is a string of money. A few days ago, my wife made a special trip to ask me about it, and I did my best, and I didn't want to be good! ”

The four maids trembled more and more, and did not dare to speak.

Wang Xifeng sighed and said, "Well, since you have a business trip to the monthly case, then change the rules and receive the monthly case directly from me in the future." Ping'er? ”

Wang Xifeng looked at Ping'er, who hurriedly brought a tray, with neat eight strings of money inside, and an account book on the side.

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Don't be stunned, take the monthly example and press the handprint, and then disperse." ”

The four maids were overjoyed, and shouted repeatedly: "Thank you for the second grandmother." ”

Wang Xifeng waved his hand and said with a smile: "This money is directly in your hands, and in the future, don't say that I will deduct you." ”

The two maids beside Jia Huan hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "In the past, we blamed the second grandmother and kowtowed to the second grandmother to make amends." ”

At that moment, the four maids pressed their handprints, divided the money, and went away happily.

When the people left, Wang Xifeng secretly wondered, this time the money was not in Aunt Zhao's hands, and she dared to collect the money sent down...... Without financial power, how many of the four maids are really willing to listen to Aunt Zhao?

Wang Xifeng has never forgotten the poisoning, and he is not in a hurry, so he will grind Aunt Zhao a little bit in the future!

After drinking a cup of tea, seeing that the morning was approaching, Wang Xifeng said: "The girl is sick, so I have to go and see." Go and find some nourishment, and come with me to see it. ”

Ping'er responded, turned his head and found some dendrobium wrapped in an oiled paper bag, and followed Wang Xifeng to the Grand View Garden.

Just entered the Grand View Garden, I heard a few mothers-in-law talking around from afar, startled, and I didn't know what was going on.

Wang Xifeng approached quietly, and heard a mother-in-law say: "...... It is absolutely true that my nephew went to the temple and happened to bump into the yamen to ask. said that Ma Daopo was hung on a roadside tree, and I don't know who this offended. ”

Another mother-in-law said: "Amitabha, I don't think that Ma Daopo is a good one, she is swaggering and deceiving all day long, sooner or later." ”

The previous mother-in-law said: "Didn't you say that Ma Daopo's magic is extremely effective?" ”

"Phew, where did it work? I kept coughing when I went home, and I donated 500 yuan of sesame oil, but it didn't get better for a long time. I still asked the imperial doctor in the house to take a look, and I took the half-moon decoction medicine to get better. ”

The mother-in-law sighed.

Wang Xifeng suddenly spoke: "Ma Daopo is dead? ”

"Huh? Second grandma! ”

Several mothers-in-law hurriedly saluted, but Wang Xifeng frowned and continued to ask: "Say, Ma Daopo is dead?" ”

A woman only said: "Yes, I heard that Lu met a strong man and was hanged on a tree." ”

The revenge was avenged, but Wang Xifeng did not see happiness, but frowned. Instinctively, Sister Feng thought in her heart that Ma Daopo's death was only afraid that it would be inseparable from Mrs. Wang.

I just don't know who Mrs. Wang is looking for, and there is no such character in the eight rooms where she is married.

She couldn't control this outside matter, but her heart was more and more awake. Mrs. Wang's methods are far more vicious than her calculations, and she must be prevented from killing Mrs. Wang.

When he came back to his senses, Wang Xifeng stretched his brows and scolded: "It's just some gossip, just say it's over, and then disperse, have you done your errands?" ”

The mother-in-law should go down and scatter.

Wang Xifeng and Ping'er crossed Qinfang Pavilion, Cuiyan Bridge, and Beewaist Bridge all the way, and arrived at Deqiu Shuangzhai in a blink of an eye.

Cui Mo caught a glimpse of Sister Feng's figure from afar, and hurriedly greeted her. Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Is the girl better?" ”

Cui Mo smiled: "The girl is fine, I won't take medicine today, but it's a little cold." ”

While talking, Sister Feng and Ping'er were brought into the middle, and Tanchun was happy to greet her: "Why is Sister Feng here?" ”

Wang Xifeng has always liked Tanchun's temperament, and he touched Tanchun's forehead with his hand and said with a smile: "I knew you were sick, and I wanted to come and see it early in the morning, but I couldn't be empty." No, I hurried over after I just rested. ”

Tanchun pulled Wang Xifeng's sleeve and walked to the hall, and said, "I'm just catching a cold, where is it worth being Sister Feng to see?" Sit down, go and make tea. ”

Sister Feng sat down and said with a smile: "I have just eaten it, and I am afraid that I will not be able to eat it again." The girl also sits, let's talk for a while. ”

Tanchun sat with him and said with a smile: "I'm going to find Sister Feng." ”

"How?"

Tanchun said: "Now there are many sisters in the family, and the daily wandering is mostly a waste of time, rather than this, it is better to learn to form a society in the south of the Yangtze River, or erect a word altar, or open a club, although it is a momentary occasion, it is a good talk for the ages to say that the coming day is a good talk for the ages." ”

Wang Xifeng blinked, smiled and couldn't close his mouth, and said: "Eh, I only know a few words, this poetry is right, I'm only afraid to find my sister-in-law." After a pause, he suddenly woke up: "Yes, the girl is looking for me where I want to recite poetry, and I am obviously here to eat a big family!" ”

Tanchun giggled for a while, and said, "Sister Feng, this is wrong, I looked for my sister-in-law before, and my sister-in-law has already promised, and she will cover all expenses." ”

Li Kun is no longer as picky and searching as usual, and he is next to Jingshi Water Affairs, and there are dividends every year; In addition, there is the support of Uncle Jingling Li Weijian. That is, Li Kun doesn't want to take care of things, that's the case, and now no one in Li Kun's house dares to slack off.

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but feel envious, and secretly thought that her sister-in-law Li Kun is really going to be windy and rainy now.

At this time, I heard Tanchun say again: "I, I thought that Sister Feng would also come to have fun, there are sisters in the family on the left and right, wouldn't it be lively to come?" ”

Wang Xifeng thought of Li Kun, and was a little unconvinced. said: "I can't help anything, since my sister-in-law has paid for it, why don't I also give a share?" These two sisters-in-law, it's not good to let the eldest sister-in-law be beautiful, right? ”

Tanchun said to Cui Mo: "Listen, Sister Feng is blurting out now, where does it seem that she can't compose poetry?" I see, it must be hidden. ”

Wang Xifeng was amused again, and said: "Spare me, let me compose poems, why don't you let me pay for it." ”

The two of them were talking, and suddenly a mother-in-law chased in, greeted the two of them, and said eagerly: "Grandma, the old lady sent me to find the second grandmother, and asked the second grandmother to go to Rongqing Hall quickly." ”

Wang Xifeng smiled and wondered, "But something happened?" ”

"This-" The mother-in-law glanced at Tanchun, secretly thinking that this matter would spread sooner or later, so she said: "The second master of the Xue family came to the door and wanted to take Miss Baoqin out of the house." ”

Wang Xifeng exclaimed: "Good and decent, what are they moving out for?" ”

The mother-in-law is silent, and it is difficult to say anything in the future.

Seeing this, Wang Xifeng sighed, got up and said, "Tan girl, this matter is decided." In the future, how much money I need will always be counted as my share. I'll go to the old lady first and hear what's going on. ”

Tanchun said: "Sister Feng, go quickly." ”

At that moment, Sister Feng and Ping'er walked out with their mother-in-law.

After coming out of the autumn season, Sister Feng asked the woman in a low voice: "What's going on?" ”

The mother-in-law said in a low voice: "Grandma also knows about the Mei family's divorce, and Mei Hanlin is afraid that someone will chew her tongue behind her back, so she simply starts first and spreads the word in the house...... unbearable, this dragged down the reputation of the Baoqin girl. Although the second master of the Xue family never said it explicitly, it is because of this that he insisted on taking Miss Baoqin out of the house. ”

"This ...... Extremely? ”

Wang Xifeng has been taking care of the funeral, but he has never cared about the gossip outside.

The mother-in-law's voice became lower and lower, and said, "It seems to say that the second master of Bao is not very decent......"

Wang Xifeng was suddenly silent.

The previous time Zhongshun Wang Changshi came to the door, he knew that Baoyu was inappropriate. Now that the old things are brought up again, the partial Rongguo Mansion is irrefutable.

If the eldest sister wants to live in a reputable relative's house like Rongguo Mansion, I'm afraid that Sister Feng won't want to, right?

There were no more words at the moment, and the group hurriedly walked towards Rongqing Hall.

……………………………………………………

Rongqing Hall.

"What does that mean? Pick up the tadpoles! ”

Mother Jia spoke, when even a maid came over to help Xue Zhen, who was kneeling on the ground, up. Xue Zhen got up and bowed to Mother Jia and said, "In short, the younger generation has nothing to worry about, just for the sake of his sister's marriage, this is ...... As a last resort. ”

Mother Jia was indignant, partial, and blameless. Previously, Mrs. Wang accepted Baoqin as her goddaughter, and this way was to promote the marriage with the Mei family. Unexpectedly, it backfired!

The Mei family used this as an excuse to ruin the marriage contract! That's it, it's still spreading the word about Rongguo Mansion outside, especially how unbearable Baoyu is.

At this time, the name of the girl's family is greater than the sky, if the reputation is bad, where can I find a good mother-in-law in the future?

Thinking of Baoyu again, these days, Baoyu goes out early and returns late every day, and is stopped from entering the garden, but it looks more obedient. As for homework, Jia Mu never forced it.

Yesterday Jia Zheng came back, and he was going to beat Baoyu again, but it was not Mrs. Wang's desperate stop, but I was afraid that Baoyu would be hit by the board again.

Suddenly remembering Daiyu's piece of jade, Jia's mother felt a tingling in her heart for a while.

After this incident, Mo said that Baoyu had a bad reputation, but I was afraid that even the girl in the family would not be able to find her mother-in-law's house.

Jia Mu came back to her senses and was about to say something, when Baoqin leaned over and said, "Old lady, I was just living temporarily, and now I can't move out." After a few days, I think of the old lady, even if the old lady doesn't invite me, she will come to the door. ”

Mother Jia suddenly smiled bitterly, reached out and hugged Baoqin and said, "Good boy, it was the Jia family who dragged you down." ”

Baoqin shook her head, and said with a bright smile: "There is a way that there is nothing in life to ask for, maybe I have no relationship with the Mei family, and I can't say that there will be a better one waiting for me in the future." ”

Jia Mu said: "It will be so." If you can't find it for a while, don't worry, you're still young. The old woman turned around and told her relatives that she would find a good marriage for you. ”

Bao Qin smiled: "It's still early, I'm not in a hurry." ”

Wang Xifeng's voice came from outside: "Why do you want to move away?" ”

The words fell, accompanied by a gust of fragrant wind, Wang Xifeng and Ping'er came. After seeing the ceremony, Wang Xifeng asked knowingly, and Xue Zhen had to say that it was not good to live in Jia's house for a long time.

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "They are all relatives, since the tadpole brothers have rented a house outside, they should also move out." It's just that you have to come and go more often in the future. As he spoke, he looked at Baoqin again: "I'm very proud of the piano girl, it's been okay for three or five days, it's been a long time, and it's hard to think about it." ”

Xue Zhen responded with a smile, and Baoqin said, "Sister Feng, I just said, I will have to come back to see the old lady and Sister Feng in the future." ”

Wang Xifeng suddenly smiled and stepped forward and poked Baoqin's face: "This girl is so amiable." If the eldest sister has half of your character, I, I'll be snickering in my dreams in the future. ”

Wang Xifeng's gags warmed up Rongqingtang. At that moment, he instructed his mother-in-law to salute Baoqin, accompanied Jia's mother to laugh naughtily, and mentioned that Tanchun was going to set up a poetry club, but he covered up the parting feelings in the past.

From beginning to end, Aunt Xue, Baochai and Mrs. Wang never showed up.

Mrs. Wang didn't show up, because she knew that this matter was because of Baoyu, and she really didn't have the face to face Xue Zhen and Baoqin; And Aunt Xue and Baochai did not show up, which has another deep meaning.

Xue Zhen and Baoqin, who are in the second room, would rather rent a house and live elsewhere, and the big house has a property in Beijing, and they still rely on the Jia family to survive. At this time, it was really faceless to be yin and yang by Jia's mother! Rather than that, it's better not to go.

Baoqin did not have many clothes with her, and her mother-in-law picked up only one big and one small two burdens, and when it was noon, Jia's mother told the kitchen to prepare Baoqin's favorite dishes, and pulled Baoqin to eat lunch, so she was reluctant to send Sister Feng to send her away.

Sister Feng sent Baoqin to the front of the Yimen, and told her again, so that the maid and the mother-in-law carried the Baoqin out of the Yimen, and then boarded the carriage and quietly left from the corner gate.

Sister Feng looked at it for a long time, sighed, and then returned to Rongqing Hall in her heart. Not mentioning how Sister Feng explained to Mother Jia for the time being, but said that the second brother and sister of the Xue family in the carriage.

The chariot walked along, and Baoqin looked out through the veil, and her eyes were not disappointed, but full of curiosity. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the steam engine rumbling with a pump to lift the water from the well into the water tower, and Bao Qin said, "It turns out that the tap water is flowing down from a high place, and I wonder how to draw water from that high place." ”

Xue Zhen said in a deep voice: "This is Uncle Li's merit. ”

"Well, I already knew."

Xue Zhen pondered for a while, and then said, "This time...... dragged down my sister to clear her name. ”

Bao Qinhun didn't care and said: "Since my brother has a plan, why bother with temporary gains and losses?" After a pause, he said, "When does my brother plan to send me over?" ”

"As soon as possible." While speaking, Xue Zhen took out a deed from his sleeve, with a lijia painting on it, and the official seal, which was a serious red deed.

There is only one place for Li Weijian to sign and seal - this is a concubine document.

Bao Qin took it curiously and glanced at it a few times, then carefully folded it and returned it to Xue Zhen, and said, "Then as soon as possible." ”

Xue Zhen groaned, "My sister is not afraid...... Uncle snubbed you? ”

Bao Qin smiled, shook her head, and said, "No." She looked at Xue Zhen playfully and said, "I bumped into him in the garden that day, and then in the Rongqing Hall, he never looked at me." ”

Xue Zhen frowned and said, "If you don't look at it, isn't it-"

Bao Qin smiled and said, "He must be afraid that he will see too much and mess up his mind." ”

"Hmm." Xue Zhen responded, and his heart was still worried.

went to the rented house near the left to settle down, and turned around and the old servant looked for him, and said, "Second master, the little one saw that Uncle Ling went home!" ”

"Oh?"

Xue Zhen thought about it for a while, and immediately rode to Jinglingbo's mansion. When I got to the place, I explained to Menzi, and after waiting for a while, I was introduced into the study by Wu Haiping.

At this time, Li Weijian had just changed his clothes, looked at Xue Zhen and said, "Have all the family affairs been handled?" ”

Xue Zhen frowned and said: "I'm ashamed, the Mei family regrets the marriage, and I'm afraid that my mother's explanation will not be done." and even affected my sister's name...... Please also ask the uncle to help! ”

"Huh? Repentant? Li Weijian was surprised on his face, and he was slightly happy in his heart, but he was also surprised.

Xue Zhen immediately made a long story short, and told the reason for this matter from beginning to end, and Li Weijian was dumbfounded when he heard it. It seems that because of him, Baoyu's reputation was completely ruined...... Tsk, it's better to say that Baoyu made it herself. In short, when I heard that Baoqin worshipped Mrs. Wang as her godmother and lived in Jia's house, Mei Hanlin immediately exploded, and she was very angry, and after regretting her marriage, she also spread the reputation of the Jia family to clear up her own involvement.

After hearing this, Li Weijian bowed his head and said: "What are Wendou's plans now?" ”

Xue Zhen got up and arched his hand and said, "I wish to attach the tail wing of the uncle." My sister was affected by this name, but I was afraid that it would be difficult to find a good marriage, so I had a reluctant invitation below. ”

As he spoke, Xue Zhen took out the deed from his sleeve cage and handed it over with both hands.
