The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 567 Must get one, right?

After leaving the Forbidden City, Jiao Shun looked back at the palace gate, then at the waist badge in his hand, then shook his head and sighed secretly.

Who would have thought that just for such an absurd reason, he would get the advantage of walking in the palace?

But the most regrettable thing was that even though he was so close, Jiao Shun couldn't see Jia Yuanchun's true face.

Gein had her back to Jiao Shun most of the time, and even if she turned around, Jiao Shun didn't dare to look up—two articles were presented one after another, and the emperor had already understood his lustful nature, so he would go to see her at this time. Peeping at the concubine in the palace, isn't the old birthday star getting impatient with arsenic?
I don't know if there will be a chance in the future...

Filled with regret, he found the carriage, Shuan Zhu was standing shoulder to shoulder with the driver, dozing off wrapped in an old leather jacket, he heard footsteps in a daze, looked up and found that it was his uncle, hurriedly opened the door The fur coat jumped out of the car, and while pushing the coachman to wake him up, he took the steps from the car frame and placed them behind the car.

When Jiao Shun got into the carriage, he pulled out the ladder and asked, "Master, shall we go home directly, or go to the yamen?"

"Let's go to the nearest yamen first, I don't know what's going on with Liu Changyou."

Shuan Zhu agreed, and trotted back to the front. Not long after, the coachman drove the carriage to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry not far away.

After returning to the Secretary's Office, a few faces that I have seen or haven't seen poured out of the wing room after two visits. Those who have enough status will come up to strike up a conversation, and those with lesser status will try their best to puff their chests and belly, intending to give Jiao Shun left enough impression.

Half of these people were sent by the Qingshui department to beg for alms. Although the Ministry of Industry is a rich temple, there are still a few poor monks.

Half a month ago, Gongxue was also regarded as the Qingshui Yamen, but now it is different. First, the nobles pledged a sum of money, and then the major imperial merchants also left. The Qingshui yamen has become a fat job that everyone envies.

As a result, it is inevitable that another "poor monk" will come to alms for alms.

The other half are petty officials, book clerks, or those who want to pave the way for their nephews who want to transfer to engineering and become officials—most of these people can't touch Jiao Shun, so they come to look for Liu Changyou all day long. Wait for the Secretary to be soft and hard.

In short, because of the relationship between these two groups of people, the Office of Secretary Affairs, which was already busy with affairs, became more crowded.

In fact, Jiao Shun was already bored, and now that he has an errand to go to the palace every afternoon, he can take the opportunity to hide for a while.

only……

He has no idea what he wants to build to bluff people, and he urgently needs this chapter to talk about brainstorming and enlightenment.

After finally sending away a few beggars, Jiao Shun just wanted to find someone to ask someone, set up a table at Caishikou, and contacted various newspapers for the latest progress, and suddenly reported outside, saying that Mr. Xue Pan Xue was out asking for an audience.

How did Xue's big head get into the yamen?
Could it be that he got into some serious trouble again and asked himself for help?
Thinking of Xue Pan's bad deeds in the past, Jiao Shun couldn't help but feel uneasy, so he hurriedly ordered someone to invite Xue Pan in, and when he saw his rosy face, he was slightly relieved, and then asked Xue Pan's reason for coming.

"My mother would like to ask my brother to come over to the house during his holiday."

Xue Pan grinned and sat down at the bottom, crossed his legs and said with a smile: "Actually, there is nothing else, but my brother and I will get married next month. On the [-]th day of this month, my uncle is at home because of his illness. After pondering over and over again, it is most appropriate to invite you to go, brother—my mother also wants to entrust you in person when she invites you to go."

It is indeed suitable, after all, he is a quasi-father-in-law.

hmm~
If Wang Xifeng really made a move, he might be the brother-in-law or the father-in-law first.

With such a taciturn and shameless mind, Jiao Shun naturally would not shirk his refusal, but just take a rest...

He frowned and said: "It's really a coincidence, I just got an imperial order, and I'm afraid I won't have much chance to rest in the next few days."

As he said that, he suddenly changed the subject: "But since it's related to your life, brother, I'll go through whatever I say--how about it, you stay here for a while, and I'll be with you when I leave the office go home."

"That's a good feeling!"

Xue Pan didn't know that his mother and aunt were still arguing in secret, but when he heard that Jiao Shun was going to visit today, he readily agreed.

Next, while Jiao Shun handled the official documents, he chatted casually with him.

The topic of the conversation at the beginning was naturally inseparable from Xue Pan's marriage.

"Your family has just moved back to live, and you will be posting monthly posts in a blink of an eye, isn't it a bit rushed?"

Jiao Shun always felt that something was wrong. It was understandable for the Xue family to be anxious. After all, it was very difficult to find a marriage that was well-matched, but why was the Xia family so anxious?
Generally speaking, it takes several months to prepare for the marriage of a daughter at the gate of a mansion.

"No rush, no rush!"

Xue Pan grinned and waved his hands again and again: "If you and Baoyu are like you and Baoyu who can't be touched like this, you won't marry a wife until the beginning of next year. I'm so anxious!"

Jiao Shun rolled his eyes when he heard the words, did he ask this?
After a few more words on the sidelines of being straightforward, the idiot finally realized it, and then laughed and said: "Of course there is a reason for this. I also found out recently that my mother-in-law had a good friend when she was young, and now the old love Resurrection, I wanted to recruit a husband, but my wife bit me to death and refused to agree, even if I made a written agreement, agreeing that all the wealth of the family would belong to her in the future, my mother-in-law really had no choice, so she decided to marry her daughter as soon as possible Thinking about getting out."

That's what happened.

Thinking about Xia Jingui's dominatrix-like temper in the original book, it's really hard to deal with it, and she's not sure what's going on, so it's no wonder Xia's mother is eager to throw her daughter out.

Knowing the key point, Jiao Shun didn't ask any more questions, and instead chatted with Xue Pan about the anecdotes in and out of the capital.

In this way, when it was time to disperse the office, the two left the Ministry of Industry and rushed to Zijin Street together.

Speechless all the way.

When the news of Jiao Shun's visit reached the inner courtyard, Aunt Xue was a little caught off guard. She had made an appointment with Mrs. Wang and asked her to be a cover so that the two of them could be alone in private.

Who would have thought...

But after thinking about it, the son's marriage is the most important thing now, and the business should be settled first, and when we become neighbors in the future, there will be opportunities for communication inside and outside.

So he ordered someone to send a message to Xue Pan, and asked Jiao Shun to meet him in the flower hall in the backyard.

As the beginning of winter was approaching, Aunt Xue's wrapping was very neat, but the more so, Jiao Shun couldn't help laughing at the memory of the last time in the ear room, searching up and down for the size and scale, and couldn't control it for a while.

It's a pity that it was in front of Xue Pan, no matter how bold he was, he didn't dare to say clearly: I call you brother, you call me father.

at the same time.

Xue Baoqin also got the news in the inner courtyard, so she asked her mother for leave, hurriedly found outside the gate of the flower hall, and wanted to stop Jiao Shun when she went out, and tell him about Lin Daiyu's situation.

I didn't want to poke my head inside, when someone patted me on the shoulder.

Xue Baoqin couldn't scream, and turned around covering her small cherry mouth, but saw her cousin Baochai standing behind her with a serious face, and couldn't help but patted her breasts that had just taken shape and blamed: "Sister, why don't you?" There is no sound at all, so Xuan didn't scare me to death!"

Xue Baochai ignored her complaints, turned her head to the side and said, "Come with me."

Xue Baoqin didn't know why and followed her to the corner, but Baochai said in a deep voice: "Brother Jiao worked so hard and worked so hard to reverse the matter of the Mei family's resignation with his extraordinary skills, and he was so angry for you. It's normal to have feelings, but don't forget that Big Brother Jiao has already made a marriage arrangement!"

It was only then that Baoqin realized that she had missed the mark, and she couldn't help but blushed immediately, not knowing what to say.

"Let's go."

Seeing this, Baochai took her by the hand and said, "I'm going to say hello to my aunt."

However, Xue Baoqin refused to give in. She bit her lower lip and struggled for a while, before she said seriously under the puzzled eyes of her cousin: "Sister, I dare not say that I don't have such thoughts, but today I am really not for this, but Yes, but... I can’t say clearly what it is for, but it’s definitely not for my own business.”

As he said, he shook Baochai's bright wrist with his backhand and said coquettishly: "My dear sister, just trust me for a while!"

"This……"

Xue Baochai hesitated for a while, seeing that her expression did not seem to be fake, then reluctantly nodded and said: "This time is not an example."

"Thank you sister, thank you sister!"

Xue Baoqin was overjoyed, pulled Baochai up and down and cheered a few times, seeing that Jiao Shun and Xue Pan had come out of the flower hall, she wanted to hurry up to meet them.

Xue Baochai hurriedly pulled her back: "What's the hurry, wait for me to lure my brother away first!"

Saying that, he rushed forward, and he used some excuse to lure Xue Pan to another place.

Seeing that Jiao Shun was alone, Xue Baoqin quickly showed up, and raced against the clock to tell about Mrs. Wang's intention to serve as a matchmaker for Lin Daiyu.

After Jiao Shun heard it, he thought of Jia Baoyu's madness several times before, and immediately understood that this was a plan to draw salary from the bottom of the pot.

Lin Daiyu and Xue Baoqin think this matter is very difficult, but for Jiao Shun now, it is not a difficult matter, all he needs to do is tell Mrs. Wang secretly about his family's preparation for sex.

Mrs. Wang is willing to offer her even her own sister, let alone a niece who is not liked very much?
What really puts Jiao in a difficult situation is that you can't have it both ways.

With this cake, Xu Sanjia finally had to make a decision.

Considering his nature alone, he naturally prefers the lively and healthy Baoqin, but...

After all, it was Lin Daiyu!

Of the two big names in Dream of Red Mansions, you have to take one home, right?

At this moment, Xue Baoqin was not without contradictions, she hoped that Jiao Shun could help Sister Lin, but she didn't want herself to have no status in Jiao Shun's eyes.

"Ah~"

After a while, Jiao Shun sighed quietly, and kicked the ball back: "After all, I'm an outsider, so it's not good for me to interfere in Rongguo Mansion's housework. To solve this matter, unless it's... But how can I let my sister down?"

Xue Baoqin's heart was relieved, and her eyes wet unconsciously, she hurriedly opened her beautiful eyes and tried her best to stop the tears, and said with a forced smile: "I thought I was going back to the south, so... now it's really absurd to think about it Don't worry, brother Jiao, please don't mind."

Saying that, he made a deep salute: "Sister Lin, Zhong Lingyuxiu, is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, she is really a first-class good woman in the world. I hope Brother Jiao will not let her down in the future."

As he spoke, he was afraid that tears would fall from his eyes, so he turned around and ran away.

Jiao Shun looked at her back with a sense of loss.

Why didn't this motherfucker allow herself to transmigrate into an emperor, a prince or something like that, wouldn't she be able to marry as many as she wanted?

But Xue Baoqin was tearful, and was not distinguishing between east, west, north and south, when she suddenly saw a person blocking the way in front of her, she wiped away her tears and found out that it was her cousin Baochai, so she threw herself into Baochai's arms without hesitation and began to cry loudly.

Baochai was a little puzzled at first, but quickly guessed something vaguely, so she sighed, hugged her back and spoke softly to comfort her.

…………

Rongguofu.

Sitting alone in the boudoir, Wang Xifeng showed a sullen look on her face, frowned and sighed at other times.

It wasn't until the sound of hurried footsteps outside that she calmed down and looked up at the door.

When Ping'er picked up the curtain and came in, she couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? What did the thief say?"

But it turned out that she had waited for two days and saw no reaction from Jiao Shun, so she couldn't help but send Ping'er to spy on the military plane again.

Ping'er shook his head slightly, and Wang Xifeng was immediately annoyed: "What? Does he still have a grudge?!"

As he spoke, he unconsciously took out scissors from the sewing dustpan.

"I didn't see anyone."

Ping'er hurriedly explained: "Maybe it's because the yamen is busy, or there is some entertainment..."

"Pooh!"

Halfway through hearing this, Wang Xifeng threw back the scissors in his hand, and spat in distaste: "What's the matter with socializing? I'm afraid this thief is going out to have a good time again!"

Thinking that he was still going out to play around at this time, obviously he didn't take his 'threat' seriously, Wang Xifeng gritted his silver teeth, wishing he couldn't make a clean break with him, but he couldn't bear to part with the vigor and many benefits.

Besides, if you want to bring him and Baochai together, you must first make him less defensive.

Because of thinking like this, he started to take the initiative to heal.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "It's not good to delay the matter of Miaoyu. Tomorrow, you will let the wind out and say that I dreamed of that fake nun again, so I want to find her."

This can be regarded as actively offering an olive branch.

Besides, it will be convenient to make an appointment with the thief after the joint of Muniyuan is opened up.
