Return to the Red Chamber: Jia Min Xiuxian

Chapter 77 Goodbye Xingyin at Hanshan Temple (1)
"Otherwise, just do as the master said. This is the fault of the Xue family in the final analysis. Although the Xue family is named as an imperial merchant, it is only a merchant after all. There is no one in the officialdom. The family of Jia and Wang are connected and related, after all, it is not his Xue family. Besides, the long-distance water cannot quench the near thirst. We only need to reveal the identity of that master in a subtle way, and his Xue family dare not do anything. It’s just that you have some power in Jinling, and you dare to offend the royal family? Besides, we should stay away from the Xue family in the future. I don’t think that Mrs. Xue’s family is sensible. If she is polite, she should respect us. At any rate, we are the parents of Jinling, and we are officials. I don’t know how much higher we are than his family, but they treat us like servants of the family. It seems that we are shallow. The master of the Xue family again I haven’t been at home all year round, and now this happened again, I’m afraid it will be unpredictable in the future. Originally, we didn’t need to curry favor with them, but we just wanted to be polite, and we opened a dyeing workshop just to give some color. It’s also a little arrogant. If this goes on like this, accidents will happen sooner or later. How about we alienate them earlier, so as not to hurt us. In this way, we can also explain to that master. What do you think, master?"

"That's the only way to go. Let's do as Madam wishes."

Mrs. Xue's family over there was originally waiting for the good news at home, and she thought she could arrest the bastard who beat his son and teach him a lesson.How did they know that this group of servants who went there came back after being beaten up again, and they couldn't get things done, so they couldn't help feeling depressed, scolded those servants a few times, and lost their temper.As for the words brought back by those servants, she selectively ignored them and didn't take them to heart at all.From her point of view, it was nothing more than a threat from that person.

After getting bored, I thought about it again, and there is the magistrate.Don't believe that he still dared to resist the officials?The magistrate's wife had made a deal with her.

Thinking of this Xue Wang's heart is proud.So what if you are an official wife?Don't you have to curry favor with me, a businesswoman?Thinking about it makes me feel refreshed.Just sit at home and wait for the good news from the magistrate's wife.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, the good news didn't come, but the official came, saying that his son was arrogant and making trouble, and wanted to arrest his precious son and put him in jail.

Xue Wang immediately turned his face.I was puzzled, obviously I told the prefect's wife, why did I come to arrest my son instead?When she wanted to get angry with those officials, they didn't know that the officials didn't like her at all, they just detained her son and dragged her away.

Xue Wangshi hated him to death, but had no choice but to watch his son being taken away by officials.Xue Wang couldn't do it, so he had to clean up indiscriminately, got in the car in a panic, and went to the magistrate's house to question Xingshi.

The magistrate's wife was also annoyed by Xue Wang's arrogant appearance on weekdays, so she didn't talk to her too much, but said: "Your son has provoked a big shot this time, and even we were almost implicated. Before he left Jinling today, he specially I went to the yamen to find my master, and asked to punish your overlord, but we have nothing to do. You go back, it’s just a small punishment and a big punishment, and it will be released after a while. As long as he doesn’t cause trouble again, everything will be fine , if there is trouble again, then we will talk about it."

The Xue Wang family is used to covering the sky with one hand in Jinling, so why are they afraid of some big shots?She only thought that she still has the support of the Jia Mansion and the Wang family in the capital, and if there are too many people in the capital, can they all be nobles?Don't believe that he is bigger than the Duke's Mansion in the capital?So he opened his mouth with disapproval.

"What kind of person is it? How could the magistrate be scared like this? My sister is married to the Duke's mansion in the capital, and no matter how bad it is, she still has my natal family. I don't know what the magistrate is afraid of?" The tone was thick Contempt and disdain.

Madam Zhifu has been dealing with her for so long, how can she not know what she thinks?What an ignorant fool.In the capital, where there are nobles everywhere, what is the Wang family of Jia's mansion?Or its coating.It's just that they have a bit of weight in Jinling, and who cares about them in other places?It was hopeless that she could be so self-satisfied.Thinking of this, his face became even colder.

"Mrs. Xue has such a big tone! I don't know how powerful the Jia family and the Wang family are, can they overwhelm the royal family and the clan? I don't know if Mrs. Xue's words are heard by the royal family. What do you think? Mrs. Xue should be cautious. It is better to discipline your son in the future, so as not to offend people who shouldn't be offended, and hurt the family, and it will be too late to regret. Today's matter is a foregone conclusion, and our master will never Cover up for your family, so as not to hurt my master's future. Please Mrs. Xue and your son can do it for themselves. If there is nothing else, Mrs. Xue, please go back. There is no change in this matter today."

Although Wang Xue was still dissatisfied, she still didn't believe how high the status of the person who beat her son was, but he had already issued an order to evict her son, so she couldn't hold on anymore, so she had to be even more frustrated than when she came. gone.

When Xue Wang came back from the magistrate's house, the house was already in a mess.Her son is in jail, and her husband is away on a business trip, so she has nothing to do now.Although my family has some influence in Jinling, it is only in the shopping malls, and there is really nothing to talk about in the officialdom. Now that my son has been arrested and imprisoned, the magistrate is not as cooperative as before, and I don’t know what happened this time. How long will it be closed?My son has always been spoiled and spoiled, how can he stand it in that kind of place?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Xue felt uncomfortable for a while, feeling sorry for her son's hardship, and resenting the magistrate for not giving her family face, she was really angry.She couldn't help but resent the man who beat her son and sent her son to prison, and cursed him in her heart.

The Xue Wang family is the same as the Wang family of the Jia Mansion. It comes from the Wang family, one of the four major families. Look at the ledger.This person said that reading is sensible, and the women of the Wang family are illiterate, and their knowledge is short, otherwise they would not be able to do things like profiteering and exploitation that would hurt the family.And this Mrs. Wang Xue is the most thoughtless person, who just wipes away tears whenever something happens.

It took a long time for Xue Wang to remember that she still has a smart daughter, maybe she can do something.Naturally, this person was definitely not Baochai.

Because Baochai is more obedient than her elder brother, and she is also very talented in reading, unlike her brother who messes around all day, so this master Xue actually values ​​Baochai a little more, and usually pays attention to cultivating Baochai in some things. Ability, even talking to her about some business matters, so that Baochai has gained a lot of knowledge, and he has read books, and he has more ideas than Xue Wang, who does not know a lot of characters. many.Usually Xue Wang would ask for Baochai's opinions on matters that were difficult to decide.

Thinking of this, Xue Wang sent someone to call Baochai.At this time, Baochai was checking the account books in the account room.Hearing my mother calling me, and thinking about what happened at home today, can I still not know what happened?
