Chapter 196 Xue Baochai Wants to Add Fragrance to Her Red Sleeves, Aunt Xue's Eyes Are Moist (please subscribe and ask for a monthly ticket)
Su Ran felt extremely comfortable after being praised by Xue Baochai.

Looking at the pink-cheeked woman with red lips and white teeth in front of him, he suddenly remembered that the mother and daughter had come to visit and they probably wanted to talk to him about something.

And sending this square inkstone is probably just a stepping stone.

Thinking of this, Su Ran turned her head and looked at Aunt Xue with a smile on her face: "You two are here today. Do you have anything to do? If you have something, you might as well just tell me."

When Aunt Xue heard this, she smiled hesitantly, but she did not speak immediately.

In her heart, she seemed to be afraid that what happened to her son Xue Pan would ruin the good impression her daughter Baochai had just established in his mind.

When Xue Baochai saw her mother's appearance, she also understood her inner thoughts.

However, Xue Baochai didn't think so in her heart.

Asking a man to do things for you is also a way to show his ability and courage.

As for the incident involving his brother Xue Pan, although it involved the official family, it only caused minor injuries and did not involve a life lawsuit.

As long as the regent in front of me says hello and the Xue family pays some money, I guess this matter will be over.

This kind of thing that is neither light nor serious and has room for maneuver should not offend the other party by troubling him.

What's more, it was his brother who was causing trouble, not him.

Even if he has a bad impression of his brother Xue Pan, it probably won't involve him.

Thinking of this, Xue Baochai said to her mother: "Mom, just tell me, there are no outsiders here anyway."

When Aunt Xue heard this, she couldn't help but admired secretly.

This sentence "no outsiders" immediately narrowed the distance between the Xue family and the regent in front of them.

The next moment, Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Actually, I really have something to trouble you, the Regent."

Su Ran didn't speak when he heard this, but just looked at Aunt Xue silently.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue sighed softly and said: "It's all my Pan'er, Baochai's brother, who doesn't let me worry all day long. Yesterday, when he just came to Beijing, he actually ran to the Goulan Wasi Land, but I didn’t expect that he injured someone there, and now he was taken away by Shuntian Mansion.”

After hearing these words, Su Ran looked at Aunt Xue and said, "Who is the injured person? Is his life in danger?"

After hearing this, Aunt Xue quickly responded: "I heard that the man was the watchman of that brothel. His shoulder was stabbed by Pan'er's sword, but his life should not be in danger."

When Su Ran heard this, he finally understood everything.

Since the person is fine, wouldn't it be okay if he pays some money?
Is it possible that that brothel is determined to have trouble with money and insists on sending this son of the Xue family to jail?

However, since the Xue family can seek help from themselves, it is estimated that things are not that simple.

Thinking of this, Su Ran looked at Aunt Xue and said, "In this case, let's just settle the matter of paying some money. Is there any hidden secret here?"

When Aunt Xue saw this, she laughed dryly and said: "It's not anything else, but the brothel seems to be run by a government official, so we are afraid that we can't persuade others, so we came here to trouble you."

After hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but feel secretly amused.

Although he had captured the capital, he didn't know that there were still so many doorways in the streets and markets.

The official's business is just to make money, but he doesn't know exactly which branch is in charge of this matter.

However, this Shuntian Prefecture Yin was recommended by Zhao Wenyuan, and this matter is within his jurisdiction, so let's assign this matter to him and see his ability first.

Thinking of this, Su Ran said to Aunt Xue: "Let's do this. I'll write a note to Shuntian Fuyin now. You can take my note to him later. I guess he can do it for my sake." Help me deal with it."

When Aunt Xue heard this, she was extremely grateful and quickly kowtowed to Su Ran.

Seeing this, Su Ran quickly helped her up: "Don't be like this, we are all a family, there is no need to give such a big gift."

Seeing this, Xue Baochai on the side quickly bowed to Su Ran and said, "Thank you, Your Highness the Regent."

Seeing mother and daughter taking turns to salute, Su Ran had no choice but to help Aunt Xue, and then help Xue Baochai.When the two of them stopped being polite, Su Ran smiled and said, "Then I'll go to the study. The pen and ink are all there. You guys stay here for a while."

Aunt Xue didn't say anything when she heard this, she just smiled and nodded.

However, at this moment, Xue Baochai on the side suddenly spoke: "If it is convenient, why don't Baochai go to the study to polish ink for His Highness."

When Su Ran saw Xue Baochai taking the initiative to invite her, she couldn't refuse, but thinking about it in her mind, her mother nodded and had to look at Aunt Xue.

After all, Xue Baochai has not yet left the cabinet, so to be alone with a grown man like herself, she must first obtain the consent of her family.

To be honest, Aunt Xue never thought that her daughter would be so bold and want to do something so beautiful as red sleeves.

However, now that the daughter Baochai has spoken, one of the purposes of the mother and daughter coming here is to make the regent fall in love with Baochai.

If there is a chance for the two of them to be alone at this time, Aunt Xue will naturally not object.

Thinking so, Aunt Xue looked at her daughter Baochai and nodded gently.

When Xue Baochai saw this, her cheeks turned slightly red, and then she lowered her head shyly.

When Su Ran saw that Aunt Xue agreed, she immediately said, "Since Miss Xue is interested, I'll do it for you."

After saying this, Su Ran nodded to Aunt Xue, and then made a gesture of invitation to Xue Baochai.

Seeing this, Xue Baochai didn't hesitate and walked out with Su Ran openly.

Seeing her daughter Baochai and the Regent both walk out of the living room, Aunt Xue couldn't help but smile with relief on her face.

She secretly thought in her heart, if Baochai could be chosen and married into the palace, then the Xue family would be able to enjoy the shade under the big tree in the future.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue couldn't help but think of her husband who had been gone for seven or eight years.

Since her husband's death, she has been raising two children alone until now.

Over the years, despite all the hardships, I have been worried that I will not be able to maintain the family fortune passed down by the ancestors of the Xue family.

Nowadays, although his son Xue Pan is still unable to achieve success and indulges in sensuality, his daughter Baochai has become more and more steady in dealing with things and has the air of a lady.

If the matter with the regent can be settled, then the Xue family will have a reliable person to rely on.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue couldn't help but think of herself again.

Looking at the still white and tender skin on her hands, she sighed secretly in her heart.

I have been guarding it for so many years, and it seems that I am about to see the end.

How many women can endure being alone and helpless every night?

If it wasn't for the sake of handing over the Xue family's fortune to the next generation, why would I have to endure that kind of suffering?

In two years' time, I will be 40 years old. If I continue like this, I will really become old and yellow.

I have been guarding it for eight years, but there are still a few more eight years left in my life.

If you don't find a partner while this skin is still not loose, this life will be too hard.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue felt that her eyes were a little moist.

She took out a brocade handkerchief from her arms and silently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

The next moment, a smile appeared on her face.

There was relief in that smile, but also hope and desire...
