Red Mansion Wind

Chapter 16

"Dong Dong Dong~"

"Who is it, it's late at night~"

General Xuanwei's mansion, the door is an old man, but the Zhou family has no children. In the early years, Zhou Suyuan went to war with Zhou Suyuan, and there was always a veteran who was injured and had no family. He asked Zhou Suyuan to take him home. Whether it is looking after the house or nursing home, chopping firewood and carrying water, there is always a mouthful of food and a piece of clothing to wear.

The family couldn't make arrangements, so they sold a few acres of land outside the city to build a Zhou family village.

What is the old man's surname Zhao and his first name? I guess he has forgotten it himself. Because he has big teeth, Zhou Xu usually calls him Zhao Yazi.

Zhao Yazi opened the door, a gust of cold wind squeezed through the gap, tightened the jacket on his body, looked through the gap, and saw two night lights at the door, seven or eight people in a carriage, he asked hoarsely: " Which one is it, and you still come to the door so late?"

Aunt Xue wiped her eyes in the car, and pinched Xue Pan's arm desperately, and he grinned in pain before giving up.

"Go, tell the disciples that the Xue family in Jinling has something important to visit General Xuanwei and his wife, please pass it on."

Aunt Xue gave instructions in the car, and said: "Be polite, and give me enough tea."

The boy got the word, walked to the door with a night light, first put on a smile on his face, and said: "Master, we belong to the Xue family, and this car is my wife, Mrs. Miss, I really have something urgent tonight." Looking for your master, please let me know."

As he spoke, he handed over a small bag.

Zhao Yazi thought it was some invitation card and took it, Xin Dao said it was strange that he had to visit in the middle of the night, and what was even more strange in the back, he found out that it was a small bag containing money, and he reckoned that it was worth a dozen taels of silver.

This is really strange. He has served the general for so many years, and it is the first time someone has sent money for tea. Although he is old, he is not confused. Such a heavy gift must be a big deal. He dare not accept it and sent the money back. , the boy was anxious to speak, Zhao Yazi said: "You wait for me to ask the general."

"boom!"

The door closed with a bang, and Madam Xue scolded Xue Pan angrily when she saw the scene through the gap in the car curtain.

"Good bastard, look what evil you have done, let me and your sister be humiliated with you, are you happy now?"

Unexpectedly, after scolding someone in the afternoon, she would be sent up to be shut up at night. Aunt Xue really didn't know that she had committed a crime. When she met this living Hades and gave birth to such a troublemaker, Xue Baochai felt better now.

Mrs. Wang arranged to go to Wang's house just now, and she came here overnight to show her sincerity, and then gave Xiangling to Zhou's house as an apology. After hearing this, Jia Mu said a few words to Xue Pan, and comforted Aunt Xue, saying that the emperor's wife The concubine is the most tolerant, with a bodhisattva heart. Tomorrow, she will go to the palace to talk with a few old concubines, even if she sacrifices her old face to beg for mercy, she will not let Xue Pan do anything, so let them not worry.

"Mother, don't scold your brother anymore, just hope that this experience will make him remember. This capital city is not our Jinling, what kind of nonsense, what nonsense, if you can't, brother, do you remember?"

Xue Pan and a chicken cub who beat the plague, just nodded when they heard Xue's mother and sister's words, and felt a little aggrieved. Who knew that they would meet someone from his family by such a coincidence, and this time they would really suffer a lot. Without saying a word, even the Xiangling that was snatched from others will be given away.

Zhou's wife, Zhou Suyuan, took a rest early in Zhou's courtyard.

Only Zhou Xu had just arrived and was used to being a night owl. How could he fall asleep? After reading a book for a while, how could Li Chun, the maid, sleep on the bed early? Zhou Xu stretched his waist and rubbed his swollen eyes. He was really tired after reading the traditional automatic translation.

"I have to change this word when I have time"

But the mood is good. The senior invented a lot of things, but he didn't copy many poems and songs pretending to be female. He didn't make any travel through the Four Treasures, and he didn't make a perfume soap steam engine. I guess he didn't have the conditions at that time. These are not the most important things. Yes, the most important thing is that this guy died of a bad cold. Starting tomorrow, he will be exercising more, so if he thinks about it, he will go to bed and sleep.

Lichun was warming up in the quilt, Zhou Xu still had nothing to dissatisfy with. He was just about to pull off his clothes and someone called him outside the door, and the voice was Bailu, the maid from his mother's side.

"Da Lang, Da Lang, are you asleep?"

Zhou Xu opened the door, and he shivered in the wind. Bai Lu was standing at the door, rubbing her hands together from the cold. Zhou Xu pulled her in and closed the door to ask.

"Sister Bailu, why are you still not sleeping? Why did you come here to find me? Is it because my mother is afraid that I will be cold and asked you to come and warm my bed?"

Bai Lu was the first to enter the Zhou family. This year, she was older than the two sisters of the Zhou family, and she was also the head of all the maidservants. When she heard Zhou Xu say this, she pressed her ice hand to Zhou Xu's neck, which made him tremble.

"But you still need me to keep you warm. It was Madam who asked me to come and call you. I didn't know that the lights in your room were still on. Why haven't you rested since it's so late?"

Looking at the bed again, Li Chun was sleeping wrapped in a quilt, and said angrily: "This girl is getting more and more unruly, no matter if the master lies down first."

"Good sister, I want to read some books, so I asked Lichun to go to bed first, but you can tell me what mother will tell me to do?"

Zhou Xu reckoned that it would be almost twelve o'clock instead of eleven o'clock. Did the ancients sleep so late?

"I don't know about the matter. Just now, a message came in from the door, saying that someone told the general about Xue's family. The general didn't want to see them. Madam persuaded me a few words and ordered me to see if you were asleep. If you woke up Go to the front too, you~"

"The Xue family?"

Zhou Xu was stunned for a moment and then laughed. Unexpectedly, he came very quickly, so he wanted to see what kind of face Aunt Xue was at this moment, so he turned and opened the door before Bai Lu finished speaking, and was about to go out.

"Hey, my lord, just go out like this and be careful of catching a cold, put on your cloak before you go!"

"Yes, yes, almost forgot"

Hearing Bai Lu's reminder, Zhou Xu hurriedly came back and put on a wool sticky cloak. He said just now that he had to be careful of a severe cold.

The lights were turned on in the central courtyard, Mother Zhou arranged for someone to make some hot tea and bring out a charcoal basin to drive away the cold. The three members of the Xue family had already been arranged to sit down. It's more comfortable for Mother Xue to come out to meet guests.

"Ma'am, it's really me. Hey."

Aunt Xue hesitated to speak several times, but she didn't know how to start. Zhou's mother also wondered why Xue's family came to the door in the middle of the night. Could it be that what happened to the boy who was beaten in her family?

Xue Pan just acted like a quail and didn't sit down and stood there. Xue Baochai saw his mother was in a dilemma, so he said: "Madam doesn't know anything, you know, my brother is a mess, and he just eats, drinks and has fun on weekdays, and he doesn't know much about it." The thing, this time it was him who said stupid things out of his mouth, we didn't know it before, but he told us about it when he recovered today, and that's why he's bothering and apologizing in the middle of the night."

". I shouldn't have said anything. Your brother has also suffered a lot, and he has learned a lesson, but what he said is too insignificant. It's all about my family. How can it involve the old concubine and her old man? No respect."

Zhou's mother said lightly, Xue's mother was ashamed, but she didn't know how to refute, so she just scolded Xue Pan again and again.

Xue Baochai bit her lip. If she couldn't get Zhou's forgiveness, she would go to His Majesty and tell her that the old concubine might not take it to heart, but the emperor might not. Even if the emperor let his family go, there is still a prince. She looked at Xue Pan and then at her mother, Yingying took a few steps to the hall, bent her legs and knelt down.

"Ma'am, my brother didn't mean it. Baochai took him to apologize to the general's mansion, please accept my gift."

"girl!"

"Baby girl."

"younger sister!"

The three of them didn't expect Xue Baochai to be like this. Xue Baochai had kowtowed his head as a salute when he uttered the sound. At that moment, Zhou Xu broke in through the back door, yelling: "What is the Xue family here for? They brought their daughter here!"

"Hey! Damn!!!"

Unexpectedly, he kicked the stool, and a dog rushed out to snatch the food. The floor was slippery. He sprinted forward with his knees on the ground and his hands on the ground, and he came to a head-to-head with the kneeling Xue Baochai before stopping.

"ah!"

This bump was not light, Xue Baochai didn't know that such a disaster would happen, she covered her forehead with her hands and looked at the person in front of her with tears.

Zhou Xu didn't look up when he looked at the shadow on the ground, he didn't have the face to look up, he just shouted in his heart.

Is there a society to die in ancient times?

What should I do if I die in the ancient society?
How can we resolve it gracefully after the death of the society, urgent!
