dream of red mansion

Chapter 272
Jia Qing didn't expect that the first face-to-face conversation with Wang Ziteng was actually for Xue Pan, a fat man!
Hearing that Jia Qing came to visit on the first day he was appointed, even though Wang Ziteng was really busy these days, he took the time to meet Jia Qing in the study in person.

"So, is the person all right?"

"Returning to my cousin, I am sure that there is no danger to my life. But according to the doctor, I am afraid that it will not get better within half a year, and I will need to take care of it in the next few years.

Moreover, this matter has been spread throughout the Bifu, and it cannot be concealed.

My cousin will be appointed soon, and my nephew thought that there is no need to worry about such matters at this time.If the cousin can trust the nephew, he might as well let the nephew take full control of the matter.

It's just that my nephew's intentions have been expressed to my uncle before, so I don't know what the uncle's intention is? "

Wang Ziteng listened to Jia Qing's words, nodded, and said: "You are right, since there is no big trouble, you use this to scare and wake up, it is a good thing for Pan'er and us.

It's just that you have to be careful not to overdo it. "

"Yes... and what about Auntie?"

Wang Ziteng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know how to say it."

Jia Qing was completely relieved now, stood up and said: "Thank you, cousin! I heard that my cousin is not going to hold a banquet when he leaves Beijing, so my nephew is here to wish my uncle great achievements in this trip, and my nephew is waiting for you in Beijing at any time." Uncle is triumphant!
... If my cousin has no other orders, my nephew will leave..."

Wang Ziteng said: "You don't need to be busy. When you came just now, my mother heard about it and told me to bring you in after the discussion."

Jia Qing said excitedly: "The old lady still remembers the boy?"

Wang Ziteng said with a smile: "Whoever saw you once, it's hard not to remember. Let's go, it happens to be a celebration for you!"

"Thank you cousin."

Jia Qing smiled and followed Wang Ziteng's footsteps.

……

In the afternoon, You Shi, who was ready, brought Qin Shi over to Rongguo Mansion to invite Jia Mu.

"Old lady, we have a banquet over there tonight, please honor yourselves when the time comes."

In the Rongqing hall, Youshi said to Jiamu with a smile all over his face.

Jia's mother was also very happy, and said with a smile: "Okay, this is a happy event. I will definitely come then, have a good drink or two, and congratulate Brother Qing!"

Wang Xifeng jokingly said: "It's also a grandson, why can't Qing brothers be relatives? Usually, our family Lian invites the old ancestor to enjoy the food and drink several times, but the old ancestor just doesn't go. Why is he going over as soon as he invites you today? ?”

Mother Jia raised her face and said: "You still have the face to speak for Lian Er. If he can also get a reward from the emperor, he can be an official in a serious manner, let alone a fifth-rank official, even a ninth-rank sesame official, and I will do the same. Drink his wedding wine!

Just go back and ask him carefully, and ask him if he has the ambition.If not, don't say I'm eccentric! "

As she spoke, Mother Jia couldn't help laughing.

Wang Xifeng's expression was embarrassing, and she dared not speak while "hiding"...

Jia Mu asked again: "Brother Qing, why don't you see me now? It's okay to be busy every day, why don't you take some time off now, and when you become an official and lord in the future, I'm afraid you won't even want your home."

You Shi said: "Second Uncle came back from the palace around noon, but left in a hurry after a while, even we don't know what he was up to."

Youshi knew that Xue Pan beat Du Feng, but according to the usual practice, if Jia Mu didn't ask her about these bad things, she wouldn't take the initiative to mention them to her.

Mother Jia didn't mind listening to it, but Aunt Xue, who was sitting on the side, changed her face when she heard the words.

In Mrs. Wang's room, Mrs. Wang said helplessly to Aunt Xue who was sobbing: "Maybe you are thinking too much, and you are simply talking nonsense. After I escort those tongue-twisting women over, the interrogation will be done." knew."

As she was about to call for instructions, Aunt Xue quickly stopped her and said: "His aunt wait a minute, this matter must not be brought up to the public! If it is a rumor, that's all. In case, if what they said is true, isn't Pan'er There is no place to die!
Although he is very unfilial, but I am only such a sinner, if he takes his life, who will I rely on in the future?"

As he spoke, tears flowed down uncontrollably.Then the sadness came from it, and I burst into tears.

Seeing Mrs. Wang, there was nothing she could do.

"Miss Bao is here."

All of a sudden Xue Baochai came in with a letter in his hand, greeted Mrs. Wang, and then said to Aunt Xue, "Uncle's letter."

Aunt Xue quickly hid her tears, sat up straight and took the letter.

There were no words on the envelope, and there were traces of it being opened. Aunt Xue knew that it was Xue Baochai who was anxious to open it first.Without paying attention, he took out the letter paper inside, opened it, and saw that there were only a few words on the large white letter paper:
Brother already knows
Aunt Xue didn't understand for a moment, she looked at Xue Baochai.

After she heard what those women said, she scolded Xue Pan severely when she went back, but it was useless, and she became more and more restless.Unable to hold back, he wrote a letter to Wang Ziteng.

It's just that she didn't dare to say that Xue Pan beat him to death, only that he beat him hard.

Now Wang Ziteng just replied these few words, which made her unable to understand the meaning.

Xue Baochai shook her head and said, "That's what my uncle wrote back."

Aunt Xue was so lost in thought that she didn't even realize that Mrs. Wang had taken the letter paper from her.

Suddenly, her body trembled, a chill came out of her heart, she raised her head, and said to Xue Baochai with some difficulty: "Could it be that the court already knew about your brother's beating to death? Otherwise, how could your uncle You know, you still reply such a letter without beginning and end?"

Don't blame her for guessing wildly, such a short letter, without mentioning specific matters, let alone signed the letter, made her think of bad things all at once.

I don't want to leave any evidence!
For a while, I thought: Wang Ziteng will soon be appointed as the ruler of the nine provinces. If the matter becomes unbearable, will he abandon their orphans and widows?
The more she thought about it, the more flustered her heart became, and the stronger her fear became.

Xue Baochai said dissatisfied: "It is not certain whether my brother has hurt someone's life or not. Mom, don't scare yourself. Uncle is probably afraid that we will worry, so he doesn't say much.

Mom, think about it, if something really happened, uncle can still ignore it.The way it is now just shows that Uncle doesn't think it's a big deal, and we don't have to worry too much. "

It's just how Aunt Xue can listen at this time.Concerned about it, she was in a mess, all she could think about was bad things at the moment, the image of Xue Pan being arrested and even beheaded lingered in her mind like a nightmare.

Mrs. Wang is naturally dull and not good at talking, and she is not sure about the truth now, and she doesn't know how to comfort her.only said:
"It's useless for us to speculate here. I have sent people to inquire, and I will soon understand."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard that Zhou Rui's family was coming, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly let him in.

Aunt Xue hid her tears secretly, and only listened to Zhou Rui's family: "Go back to Madam, I have inquired about what Madam ordered. I asked a few people in charge in the house, but they couldn't understand.

Later, I went to ask the person who came to Sheng's family, and she said that she was fine, and she would be fine after two days of raising her. "

Mrs. Wang questioned: "Did she really say that? Didn't you go and see for yourself?"

"That's what she said. Later, I said to go and have a look, but the one who came to Sheng's house refused to let me."

Mrs. Wang became more and more puzzled, and said: "Since it will be good to raise it for two days, why don't people go to see it?"

"She said that it was ordered by the second master over there, and no one is allowed to go in without his words.

I sent my servant to ask Lai Sheng again, and he also said the same thing. "

Lai Sheng is Lai Sheng, because a master casually called Lai Sheng Lai Sheng, and later the two mansions became accustomed to calling him Lai Sheng.

After Zhou Rui's family finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Aunt Xue, mother and daughter at the side, and hesitated: "And"

Aunt Xue hurriedly said: "And what, just say it quickly!"

Zhou Rui's family pretended to be relaxed and said: "I heard some nonsense from people. Don't be surprised if my aunt heard it. That is, someone in the mansion over there said that Mr. Du was actually dead, so the courtyard he lived in was called Qing Er Grandpa asked someone to seal it up.

Auntie, you say it's ridiculous, it's not so easy for a good person to die.When Zhao Er and the others came back, they clearly said that they were all right, just some skin trauma.

Thinking about it, Uncle Xue and the others were just impulsive, a battle of spirits, a few pushes, no one could really die.

After two days, I will come back to the school to teach the young masters to read. I can see how the villain with a bad screwdriver is still gossiping!

When the time comes, they won't know until they are caught and beaten. "

She didn't say it was okay, but the more she felt relieved, the more Aunt Xue was worried. After thinking about it, she was sure that Xue Pan had accidentally beaten him to death.

Looking at Mrs. Wang who also had no calculations, Aunt Xue stood up and said in a panic: "I'll go back first, and I'll bother my sister later."

Mrs. Wang stood up and said: "There is a banquet over there in the evening, you can go too, and call Pan'er, I will tell the old lady, let her send someone to take a look, it will be clear when you think about it."

After hearing this, Aunt Xue didn't know what to think about, and said: "Okay." Then she took Xue Baochai and left Mrs. Wang's courtyard.
