Red House Shoufu

Chapter 140
Under Wang Xifeng's constant intimidation and persuasion, Wang Xue finally reluctantly accepted this fact.

"Then... about Pan'er, I'll leave it to you and my wife. If you need money, let Bao girl pick it up."

Wang Xifeng took Xue Wangshi's hand, and replied with a smile: "Is there anything you can ask for? You are my aunt, and we are members of our own family. Don't say such nonsense."

Xue Baochai thought that he could get through this time safely, and Lin Shu was of great help.She said to Mrs. Xue and Wang Xifeng: "Scholar Lin, we have to prepare a generous gift..."

Before finishing speaking, Wang Xifeng quickly interrupted and said, "Don't do it. After all, this incident has slapped many people in the face. It's fine for the second master to bear the burden of this bad guy. Although it is explained that anyone can see what is going on. It’s still not appropriate to show it on the face.”

Lin Shu is different from Jia Lian, in the future he will hang out in the circle of civil servants.Xue Pan's incident can be regarded as a fig leaf for some people.

From Jinling Mansion to the Ministry of Punishment, several officials were involved.The most frightening thing is Jia Yucun, who has had one or two dirty deals in private in recent years.

Since Jia Yucun entered the Imperial Prison, many people are anxiously watching the movements in the palace.I was afraid that when I woke up, the embroidered guards would surround the gate of my house.

Hearing what Wang Xifeng said, Xue Baochai stopped thinking about giving gifts for the time being.

The three of them skipped over this topic, discussing what Xue Pan should prepare when he went to the imperial mausoleum in the west of Beijing...

In the evening, Wang Xifeng saw that Mrs. Xue was in a better mood, so she said goodbye and left Lixiangyuan.

When Xue Baochai sent her out, Wang Xifeng persuaded: "It's not an option to go on like this. You have to find an opportunity to explain the whole story to Auntie. After all, there will definitely not stop calculating."

Xue Baochai also heard what Wang Xifeng said.She nodded in response.After seeing off Wang Xifeng, she returned to the room and sat on a chair blankly, thinking about how to tell her mother about these things.

……

Lin Shu, who was on duty in the cabinet all day, dragged his exhausted body back home.After dinner with Daiyu, the brother and sister sat in the courtyard to enjoy the cool.

After Snow Goose brought fresh fruit juice, pastries and mosquito repellent incense, he retreated quietly. Lin Shu lay on the rocking chair and looked at the sky full of stars.

"Brother, sister Wan'er sent a letter today, saying that it was the first day of June for us to go there earlier, and the concubine also sent a lot of pastries."

Daiyu handed Lin Shu a small pastry: "This is made from my brother's favorite mung bean, try it."

Lin Shu took it and threw it into his mouth, smashed it twice: "It tastes really good, but it's too small."

"Then sister Yuan and I will try to make some tomorrow, big ones, so that I can satisfy my brother's hunger."

Daiyu pushed the plate of cakes to Lin Shu's hand: "For some reason these two days, many wives have come to visit at home, so I don't even have time to read."

Since the Rongguo Mansion conferring banquet, many people in Beijing have noticed the Lin family, and of course, the Wang family living in Lin Mansion.

Lin Shu knew what these people were here for, but he felt quite uncomfortable.Daiyu was already thirteen, and she was about to reach her prime, so it was time to worry about her marriage.

The brother and sister have lived together for several years, and Lin Shu has always raised Daiyu as a daughter.Suddenly thinking that Daiyu would lose her family in two years, his heart was full of reluctance and sourness.

"Silly girl, someone has taken a fancy to my Lin family's daughter, and she's here to find out."

Daiyu's face turned red in an instant when Lin Shu said it, and she drank fruit juice to hide her shyness.

Lin Shu planned to take this opportunity to say something in advance and ask Daiyu what she meant.

"Yu'er, there is nothing to be shy about marrying a male college and a female college. You are already thirteen, and there are some things that my brother has to prepare for you in advance..."

"I'm not going to marry, I'll be with my brother for the rest of my life." Daiyu hurriedly interrupted Lin Shu, although she also understood this, but she felt flustered when the matter of marriage was mentioned so suddenly.

Since Lin Ruhai died of illness, Daiyu has always regarded Lin Shu as her last support.The two brothers and sisters have supported each other until today, and when they suddenly mentioned these things, both of them felt uncomfortable.

Seeing that Daiyu's expression was visibly sluggish, Lin Shu could only press the matter down, and comforted him: "Okay, let's not mention this matter. You are still young, and my brother is reluctant to marry you off so early..."

"Why marry or not? What are you two talking about?"

Just then Wang Yuan came over, Lin Shu seemed to see a savior, and quickly pulled her to sit next to Daiyu.

Daiyu took Wang Yuan's arm and whispered in her ear for a while, causing Wang Yuan and Daiyu to stare at Lin Shu in hatred.

"Brother Lin is also true. Sister Lin is only so old, so tell her these things."

Wang Yuan squeezed Daiyu's pretty face: "My sister Lin is a fairy, she can't take advantage of those stinky men. Why don't you just marry me, I can disguise myself as a man!"

As she said that, she learned the movements in the opera, got up and bowed and said, "This girl, Xiaosheng is polite. The girl's fairy appearance is ethereal. I don't know if Xiaosheng is lucky enough to invite the girl to visit the beautiful scenery of the West Lake?"

"This scholar is so shameless, how can he be so frivolous..."

……

Lin Shuhui lay on the rocking chair, closed his eyes, and Wang Yuan and Daiyu babbled and sang duet.With the cool breeze blowing, Lin Shu's fingers beat to the rhythm of the duet of the two sisters.

Although because of Daiyu's emotions, he couldn't talk about the marriage.But Lin Shu still reminded himself in his heart that as he grew older, many people noticed Daiyu, he had to be prepared, and not delay Daiyu's life because of his reluctance.

……

Xue Pan was punished with a cane, and under Jia Lian's management, he was taken back to Rongguo Mansion for recuperation.As soon as the Supreme Emperor's birthday is over, he will go to the Imperial Mausoleum in the west of Beijing to perform hard labor.

The imperial mausoleum in the west of Beijing is not far from the capital. Tian Xiang's decision was of course based on the face of the Tuanlong Jinling in Lin Shu's hand.

He was not stupid, when Lin Shu held up the Golden Order of Tuanlong, he knew that the matter of the Xue family might involve a struggle for power, and Lin Shu was definitely on Xue Pan's side.

Lin Shu, who is in the emperor's heart, is very likely to enter the cabinet to pay respects in the future, and being convenient to others is convenient to himself.Giving Lin Shu a favor within the scope of not violating the court's laws may bring unexpected rewards in the future.

Xue Pan lay on the bed, and said to Jia Lian who came to visit him: "Second brother Lian, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you, the twenty sticks were actually beaten down, and these legs might be useless."

"What are you talking about? You are Feng'er's cousin, that is my Jia Lian's cousin. The family does not speak of two families. When you go to the imperial tomb, I will ask someone to take care of it. After a year or so , I will bring you back to the capital."

Jia Lian had discussed with Lin Shu a long time ago, and it would be a good thing to let Xue Pan suffer some hardships.This stupid person is not subject to setbacks, and will cause trouble in the future.

The Xue family is tied to them now, and they must not allow anyone to take advantage of their loopholes.The loopholes that should be plugged should be filled as soon as possible.

　Something happened tonight, will continue to update at noon tomorrow.
