[Comprehensive] With a deep golden finger

Chapter 64

In the Lihuayuan, stood a group of guards, the leader with a knife stuck in his waist, looking around at everyone, and finally fell on Aunt Xue and Zhou Lang.

"You'd better stop talking, just ask Xue Pan to come out with us! This is the emperor's grace!"

Aunt Xue wiped her tears and sobbed: "Master Li, this, my son was injured two days ago and is still lying on the bed! Can you please tell him to go on the road after two days?"

The leader surnamed Li waved his hands impatiently, called two guards over and said, "Both of you go and help Master Xue clean up together!"

It was said to clean up, but it was just to ask someone to find out where Xue Pan was, and just carry it out.

Aunt Xue wanted to stop her, but she didn't dare, so she leaned against Zhou Lang and wept again, sobbing.Although Zhou Lang was happy in his heart, he was concerned about Aunt Xue's mood and had to pretend to be sad.

Outside the courtyard gate, Mrs. Wang brought Sister Feng and several family members from Rongguo Mansion in a hurry.

"Which adult is this? But what's the matter?" In fact, Sister Feng had already told her what happened in Lixiangyuan, but she had to pretend that she didn't know anything.

One can tell it's not a good thing at first sight, as one of the hostesses of Rongguo Mansion, no matter if it's inappropriate, she wants to take care of it, but she's afraid she won't be able to.

What about the emperor!Who can control?

Master Li glanced at Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng, seeing that they were dressed in jewels, he sneered in his heart, and secretly cursed the country moth.

However, the Rongguo Mansion has not yet collapsed, and it is still a family with a lot of face, so he has to give some face.

"Second Madam, I have followed the emperor's orders, and I have come here to invite Mr. Xue Pan to take up his post! Mr. Xue is young and promising. Although he is only a hundred households now, he will be a general in the future."

The hundred households sounded good, but in fact they were just using a name to arrest Xue Pan. After he went there, it was up to the army to decide whether to become a hundred households or a soldier without a title.

"Sister, my son is injured and still on the bed! And this..." For the sake of such a big name, going to the remote place in the northwest is better than taking care of business at home.Her Xue family doesn't care about this petty official!

Aunt Xue pulled Mrs. Wang, the more she thought about it, the more wronged she became.

However, no matter how wronged I feel, I can't say it.That is the emperor's will, whoever is not willing, that is to resist the decree!

Mrs. Wang is also embarrassed. Although the Rongguo Mansion is powerful and powerful, it doesn't dare to take care of the emperor's affairs!

"Sister, this is also a happy event!" Mrs. Wang said awkwardly, not daring to say anything, she just looked at Sister Feng with a stiff face, and motioned her to say something nice.

This is a good aunt, let all the bad things be pushed to her!

Sister Feng was unwilling, but also a little proud, she raised her smiling face and smiled at Mr. Li: "My lord, it's almost noon, why don't you go to the front hall for dinner first?"

Master Li naturally refused, and stood in Lixiangyuan without saying a word.But what kind of person is Sister Feng, she has a lot of tongue, flattering and coaxing, so she let these people go to eat.

At the dinner table, needless to say, good wine and good food were served, and Sister Jia Lian and Feng accompanied her and said many good things.Everyone ate happily, so naturally they didn't follow Xue Pan's affairs so closely.

In the end, Lord Li finally let go and said that he would bring Xue Pan back the next morning.

It's just a day's delay, but Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue seem to have gained some great benefits.

Xue Pan was still moaning in the room enjoying Xiangling's massage for him, but he didn't care about what was happening outside and making such a noise.

Zhou Lang pouted secretly, a little unhappy.

Why is the person in charge so off the hook?It was agreed that Xue Pan would be taken away, after a meal, and after collecting some money, he let go for a day.If this trick is still used tomorrow, when will Xue Pan leave!

Zhou Lang was absent-minded, but Aunt Xue seemed to be winding up, and she gave a few thousand taels of silver to Madam Wang, asking her to ask Jia Zheng to walk around to see if there was any way for Xue Pan to only have a name in the army. People didn't go; on the other side, the storeroom was turned around, thinking about what to bring for Xue Pan if he had to go to the northwest.

Mrs. Wang took Aunt Xue's 5000 taels of silver, but only gave Jia Zheng 500 taels of silver.

Sister Feng was really not happy when she got the news.She was the one who dealt with all this nonsense with a smiling face, but none of Aunt Xue's money fell into her hands.

But who told Mrs. Wang to be her mother-in-law and gave her the right to be the housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion?If you are not happy, you can only be unhappy.

After returning to the room, Ping'er said that Jia Lian had sent someone to deliver a letter, and that Uncle Daolin had gone to clean up the Lin family's belongings.

Sister Feng thought that when Jia Lian came back, there would be a lot of money in her income, so she felt more at ease.After thinking about it, he sternly told the boy who delivered the letter: "I know the matter. If you don't say anything else when you go back, you must take good care of your father, and you can't tell him to be promiscuous! Carefully, I know how to peel off your skin!"

After hearing that, the boy obediently agreed, shrank his body twice, and muttered to himself: Second Master Lian goes to play in the brothel every day, how can a servant dare to take care of him?The second mistress spoke harshly, but she didn't miss much money in her hand, it was still the second master who was generous.

So, everyone still kept it from Sister Feng.

On the second day, the man surnamed Li came to bring Xue Pan again, urging him to leave quickly.Although he was very urgent, he didn't go out, but took his brother to eat and drink in Rongguo Mansion again, and passed the day as usual.

And so again on the third day.

Aunt Xue also deeply felt that Madam Wang and Jia Lian had helped her a lot, and she was very grateful, but Zhou Lang knew that there was nothing to turn around Xue Pan's matter.

One is that Itachi begged the emperor's oral order to drive him to the army; the other is that a lot of money has been swallowed up, and Jia Lian reckoned that he would not be able to do anything.

Sure enough, on the fourth day, the person surnamed Li came again.This time, he was not as indifferent as the previous few times, trying to pretend to be aloof, but said to Aunt Xue cheerfully: "The emperor is sympathetic to Madam and he is not willing to let the child leave, saying that Mr. Xue Pan should go out to make meritorious deeds. There is no need to enter the palace to select talents, let me talk with you at home!"

"This, this, this!" Aunt Xue was shocked, she couldn't breathe, she collapsed on the ground, and she didn't care about her face, crying and calling "injustice".

"Mrs. Xue, don't yell anymore. If it reaches the emperor's ears, you will lose your head!" Master Li put away that fake smile, and instantly changed back to the cold look of the first time we met, and called a few guards. Forcibly tied Xue Pan out.

"Ma'am, the errands have been finished, we're leaving now. Farewell!" With a perfunctory handcup, Master Li walked away without looking back.

Aunt Xue lay paralyzed on the ground crying, calling Xue Pan's name for a while, Xue Baochai for a while, her heart and soul for a while, and finally passed out.

Mrs. Wang hurriedly sent the doctor to see him, and Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng also stood in the yard very embarrassed.

Although Zhou Lang was a little worried about Aunt Xue's health, he was very happy that Xue Pan was finally captured.

Aunt Xue was ill, and Zhou Lang brought a few maids to feed her soup and medicine in her room, while busy with business affairs outside.

Now that Xue Pan is away, Aunt Xue is sick and illiterate, so she has to leave the business affairs to her daughter.

But in fact, Zhou Lang couldn't go out often, and the shopkeeper outside just came to hand in the account book and report whether the business was good or bad, which was all a lie.

Zhou Lang also knew that there was a mess in the middle, but he couldn't manage it for now.Just wait for Aunt Xue's health to improve, and when she can go out, I will check the situation one by one.

Sanchun and the others are very well-behaved, knowing that Aunt Xue is ill, they come to visit every two days, making Aunt Xue happy and talking with Zhou Lang.

Zhou Lang wasn't afraid of being bored, but facing Aunt Xue's resentful wife's face of missing her son every day, he would be depressed if he wasn't bored.With the addition of Sanchun and others, Aunt Xue was so busy chatting and talking, she didn't think about Xue Pan that much anymore.

After all, Xue Pan has already gone to the army, so it is useless to think about it.

When it comes to Xue Baochai, Jia Baoyu is the happiest.Not only can play with sisters and sisters, but also avoid homework, killing two birds with one stone.

Because the Rongguo Mansion did not protect Xue Pan and sent him to suffer in the army, and Aunt Xue was ill, Jia Zheng felt that his face was shamed, and he was not so unhappy that Jia Baoyu went to visit Aunt Xue every day and neglected his homework. .

In the past two days, Jia's mother heard the news of Lin Ruhai's death and the Xue family's affairs, and she was not feeling well. She was lazily lying on the bed all day and couldn't eat anything.

The whole Rongguo Mansion was silent, only Jia Baoyu occasionally dared to laugh and say a few words.

On this day, Zhou Lang took care of Aunt Xue to drink medicine and sleep, and looked through the books of Xue's family by himself, frowning a lot.Although she doesn't know much about business, she is pretty good at mathematics, and she doesn't understand the market at all like Miss Qianjin.Just by looking at the ledger, one can see how the Xue family's business has fallen under the hands of Xue Pan.

This year, the Xue family's imperial business was supposed to be deprived of its quota. Xue Pan spent 5 taels of silver and spent a long time trying to keep it.

With the reputation of an imperial merchant, no matter how stupid a person is, he can earn [-]% to [-]% of his income.But looking at the books of the Xue family, some of them only made [-]% to [-]% of their profits, some made even less, and some were flat or even at a loss.

Zhou Lang secretly complained, Xue Pan is so blind that he can't see that his property has been swallowed up by others!

Among the few families that Zhou Lang was familiar with, if they were rich, they would definitely be the Xue family and the Lin family.

The decline of the Lin family can be attributed to the wolf-like relatives in the Rongguo Mansion. Lin Daiyu, a lonely little girl, was swallowed so hard that she couldn't keep it.But the Xue family has sons and daughters, and Aunt Xue is still there. It's really self-inflicted, and you can't blame others for your decline.

Fortunately, Zhou Lang is not Xue Baochai's original style now, thinking about making Aunt Xue happy in everything, or willing to be a good-looking butler's wife in the inner house, the Xue family should not fall too quickly.

Thinking of Lin Daiyu again, Zhou Lang's expression darkened.

After all, the Xue family and the Lin family are separated by several floors, so they can barely be called relatives.

□□, about the embezzlement of the Lin family's property by the state government, how can she, a relative who is a good relative, go and talk nonsense with Lin Daiyu?It's bad if Lin Daiyu doesn't believe it, but if she does, she will probably cry too.

After thinking about it, I can only be Lin Daiyu's best friend and ask her to save as much as possible to live and live.
