Detective in the Red Chamber

All the way to Yiranxuan, I heard the clang of the pipa in the yard, mixed with the sound of pattering rain, but it didn't appear chaotic at all, but added a touch of lingering meaning.

this level...

Sun Shaozong probed in and saw that the person playing the pipa in the gazebo was indeed Yun'er from Jinxiangyuan - besides her, Jia Lian and Xue Pan, there was also Feng Ziying and another person whom he didn't know. Handsome boy brother.

Because he didn't want to disturb the song, Sun Shaozong waited for a while outside the gate of the courtyard. After the song was over, he entered the courtyard laughing loudly, "You guys are really in a good mood, and it's raining..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the face of the strange boy changed color, he put the wine glass in his hand on the table, and said with a nose that was not a nose and a face that was not a face, "So you invited him! If you knew In this way, I will never come to make this boring——Leave me!"

With that said, he got up and walked out, gnashing his teeth while glaring at Sun Shaozong.

Chapter 91 My brother-in-law shows off his power

Where is this bitch coming from?

Sun Shaozong looked at the little boy inexplicably, but he couldn't remember meeting him there, let alone offending him.

Although Monk Zhanger couldn't figure it out, Sun Shaozong still reached out his hand to stop the little white face, and said neither humble nor overbearing, "Although I don't know who the venerable is, I have to clarify something first. I have something to discuss with Brother Lian today. , but it’s not someone’s invitation.”

Even if he didn't come to ask Jia Lian for help today, he wouldn't let others bear the blame for nothing.

The little boy's expression softened a little, he turned his head and cupped his hands at the people in the pavilion, and said, "If that's the case, I'll tell you guys first."

Jia Lian, Xue Pan, and Feng Ziying also hurriedly got up and returned the gift.

Jia Lian was about to say something with a smile all over his face, but when the little boy changed the subject, he pointed at Sun Shaozong unceremoniously and said, "It's just that if this guy is here, I still have to go, otherwise my brother will be hard to explain!"

This is clearly to force the three of Jia Lian to choose between him and Sun Shaozong!

"Ruolan."

Jia Lian looked embarrassed, and forced a smile, "Brother Ling and Sun Can lead a grudge, but what does it have to do with Erlang? I think it's still..."

"Second Brother Lian."

The little boy didn't want to save face, he flicked his sleeves and added stiffly, "If my brother-in-law finds out that I'm sitting at the same table with this kind of people, I'm afraid I'll be annoyed too—it's me or he, Lian Er." Just give me a happy word!"

This bitch is really arrogant!

But he does have the ability to be arrogant - after listening to Jia Lian's remarks just now, Sun Shaozong already guessed that he is Wei Ruolan, Wei Rusong's younger brother and the brother-in-law of the King of Beijing.

Wei Rusong was fine, now he was just the commander of the right guard of the patrol battalion and the deputy of General Feng Tang.

But the King of Beijing Jing is the head of the four kings and eight princes, a proper honorable leader, let alone now, even when the Rongguo Mansion was in its heyday, he was a head shorter than others.

Therefore, when Wei Ruolan mentioned 'brother-in-law', she was actually trying to overwhelm others!

Seeing Jia Lian's face become more entangled, and when he occasionally looked at himself, his eyes were full of twinkles and shame, Sun Shaozong knew that he had made a choice in his heart.

Hey~

Those who are called brothers and sisters on weekdays can't even pass this small test. It seems that Jia Lian really can't get along well!

"Ha ha……"

Before Jia Lian could open his mouth to drive people away, Sun Shaozong sneered twice, and said with disdain, "Second brother, don't be embarrassed. How can I, Sun Shaozong's indomitable man, be with the yellow-mouthed kid who opens his mouth to 'brother-in-law' and shuts his mouth to 'brother-in-law'?"

As he said that, the eagle stared at Wei Ruolan's face like a vulture, "Please, Mr. Wei, please be more polite in the future. Your brother only lost two front teeth that day. If it were my punch, Mr. Wei would be fine." I'm afraid my face will turn into a pancake!"

He was ridiculed in public that day as 'no seed'. Although Sun Shaozu was very angry, Wei Rusong couldn't get any benefit. He was punched by Brother Cheap and knocked out two front teeth, and he is still talking out of breath even now. .

If not, Wei Ruolan would not have to lose face to Sun Shaozong today.

"you you you……"

As soon as Wei Ruolan raised her eyebrows, she was ready to speak out rudely, but when she met Sun Shaozong's murderous eyes, her tongue immediately became unbearably soft, she only said "you" a few times, and then there was no more words.

"Farewell!"

Only then did Sun Shaozong cup his hands, and turned around proudly.

"Wait!"

At this moment, I saw Xue Pan coming out of the gazebo quickly, and shouted with a dark face, "Second brother, stay here! Since I set up the table today, whoever goes and who stays should naturally be left alone." I, Xue Pan, have the final say!"

As he spoke, he was about to step forward and pull Sun Shaozong to the table.

Wei Ruolan and Jia Lian at the side changed their colors together, and Wei Ruolan said angrily, "Big head Xue, what do you mean?!"

"Means nothing!"

Xue Pan pouted his neck and said tit for tat, "Although my old Xue is incompetent, I prefer to sit with those who are capable! Since you are full of 'brother' and 'brother-in-law', why don't you just go back to have a family dinner? But there is no good relative of your Young Master Wei at the banquet!"

After talking, Wei Ruolan's neck turned red, she gritted her teeth and pointed at Xue Pan and said, "Okay you big head Xue, just wait for me, let's see my future..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Feng Ziying also came out of the gazebo, and said loudly, "Second Brother Sun, come and taste this fish, Xue Tou Da Dao and I caught it with our own hands at Lugou Bridge yesterday!"

Although these words are not as straightforward as Xue Pan's, they are also meant to support Sun Shaozong!

Wei Ruolan trembled like sifting chaff out of anger, before she paused for a while and said, "Okay, okay, okay, I, Wei Ruolan, remember today!"

As he said that, he walked out angrily.

This time, no matter how hard Jia Lian tried to persuade her after chasing her, Wei Ruolan never stopped.

To be honest, the status of Xue Pan and Feng Ziying in Sun Shaozong's heart was far lower than that of Jia Lian, but after this incident just now, the ranking of the three of them in Sun Shaozong's heart has completely dropped. !

However, Sun Shaozong, surrounded by Xue Pan and Feng Ziying, sat in Wei Ruolan's original seat, and saw Jia Lian return to the table with a bitter face, and scolded angrily, "Wenlong, Xue Pan's name is Wenlong, this is originally Wei Ruolan's seat." Why do you insist on provoking him when you talk about good things? Does his brother-in-law, the King of Jing, really want to be with him?"

"What can I do if I provoke him?"

Originally, Xue Pan respected Jia Lian and Baoyu because he lived in Jia's house, but today he was uncharacteristically and sneered unceremoniously, "He is the brother-in-law of the King of Beijing, and my old Xue is also the son-in-law of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was taken aback.

No one here knows that he has been worrying about this marriage for a long time, but he suddenly changed his tune today.

Sun Shaozong wondered, "Why did you suddenly figure it out?"

"It's not because of the He family!"

Xue Pan didn't shy away from it, and said angrily, "It's said that he was involved in some major treason case, but who really saw it? My sister...cough, in my opinion, maybe his family is because they are too publicized. , and without a strong backer, he was slaughtered as a fat pig!"

"Originally, I came to Wei Ruolan because he was working in the Dragon Guards, and wanted to find out what happened - but since this guy became a brother-in-law, she has become more and more disfigured!"

As he said that, he slapped the table and said angrily, "I don't even bother to ask any more questions! Isn't she just a woman? I, Xue Pan, have fists the size of vinegar bowls, can't I still be able to make a fool of myself?!"

Unexpectedly, the tragedy of the whole family of the He family being raped and beheaded contributed to this 'happy marriage'.

However, with Xue Pan's knowledge, I'm afraid he can't think of so many others. What he said is [-]% what Xue Baochai meant!

Chapter 92

The four of them chattered a few more casual words on the topic of 'He's family copying and beheading'.

Seeing that the lingering aftermath of the turmoil just now subsided, Sun Shaozong took a chance and said that he might go to the river embankment to eat and live often. He was afraid that Ruan Rong would be too worried about hurting the fetus in her womb when she was alone at home, so he wanted to invite Dai Yu tactfully expressed his idea of ​​going to Sun's residence to live for a while.

Jia Lian pondered for a while, smacking the yellow soup in his mouth and said vaguely, "Erlang, it's not that my brother refuted your face, it's because there is no decent mistress in your house, and Sister Lin is the heart of the old lady and Brother Bao. Meat……"

Sure enough, it hit a nail.

It's a pity that Jia Baoyu is ill now, otherwise, if he can be explained first, there is still some hope, now...

Sighing secretly in his heart, Sun Shaozong was about to laugh at himself a few words of 'abrupt' and 'reckless', but he heard Xue Pan say, "Sister Lin can't go, I have a suitable candidate here--Xiang Ling in my house is usually the most She's cute, but my sister-in-law loved her when she saw her a few days ago, so my brother might as well take her back to serve my sister-in-law."

Back then in the Jinxiang Courtyard, when he was drunk, he also said that he would give Xiangling to Sun Shaozong, but there was no news after he woke up, so Sun Shaozong only thought he was talking nonsense after drinking.

Unexpectedly, after several months, he actually brought up the old matter again!

Thinking of Ruan Rong's remarks at that time, Sun Shaozong did not refuse in a hurry, but curiously said, "I heard that Xiangling was kept in your room as an aunt, and it wasn't that nameless maid, how could you be willing?" Let her serve others?"

"This is..."

Xue Pan's eyes rolled wildly, and he hesitated even more, "Aren't I going to get married? I heard that Wang's daughter is a jealous woman. Instead of waiting for her to go through the door and start messing around, it's better to send Xiangling away first."

As soon as I heard this, I knew that it was not true, and there was something else hidden.

It's just that since he wanted to conceal it on purpose, Sun Shaozong didn't want to ask too many questions in front of everyone.

Just as he was hesitating whether to go along with the flow, or to give in a few more words, he heard Jia Lian yelling anxiously, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Since both are concubines, how can we let Xiangling go and serve? Why don't you follow me?" Choose two capable servant girls there, and take care of Erlang's aunt comfortably!"

Not to mention Sun Shaozong and Feng Ziying could understand this impatient face, even Xue Pan, who was so big-headed and simple-minded, could see that Jia Lian was planning Xiangling.

Xue Pan's heart suddenly felt displeased. It's okay to give away such a concubine as a 'thing', but it's the worst thing for others to miss!

If it was in the past, he would bear it if he had to, but now seeing that he has to be the son-in-law of Wang Shangshu, his courage has grown a bit.

So he stared at the bull's eye and yelled, "What kind of concubine is it?

As he said that, Xue Pan called the servant again and said, "Go tell Xiangling to tidy up first, and then go back home with Second Brother Sun!"

These remarks made Jia Lian very embarrassed, and he poured a few cups of yellow soup in a fit of anger, just thinking of Xiangling's figure and color, but the wine always seemed to be mixed with a sour taste.

Not to mention how Sun Shaozong thanked him smoothly.

It only said that Xiangling got the news from behind, and was stunned for a long time before stumbling to find Aunt Xue with red eyes, and when she was in front of Aunt Xue, she didn't speak, just knelt on the ground wiping tears and sobbing.

Aunt Xue also got the news early, and she always likes her well-behaved on weekdays, so she had to pull her up and hold her in her arms, crying, "Kiss, meat".

Xue Baochai silently accompanied them, and only waited for the two of them to vent their emotions, and then pulled Xiangling to comfort him and said, "Sister, you also know the joints. Although my mother and I are reluctant to part with you, we really have nothing else to do." Law"

"Fortunately, Mr. Sun has a bright future, and he always loves others—my sister will go to his house in the future. I'm afraid it will be a hundred times better than following my brother who is not stingy?"

Although these words are completely different from what she said to Ying'er at the beginning, what she said at that time was "wives and concubines fight each other". what conflict.

After hearing that, Xiangling just covered her face and sobbed, and choked up for a while before saying, "I...I just can't bear my wife and girl..."

Hearing that she only said that she was reluctant to part with her mother and daughter, but never mentioned Xue Pan, Baochai knew that she had actually "promised" this marriage in her heart, so she made the decision for Aunt Xue again, choosing a festive appearance Putting on jewelry with her should be regarded as a dowry.

After Xiangling was dressed neatly and packed out two loads of trivial luggage, someone in front reported that the banquet in the gazebo ended early because of the rain, and now that Sun Shaozong was about to leave for his residence, Xue Pan asked Xiangling to go out.

After hearing this, Xiangling bid farewell to Aunt Xue and Baochai with red eyes, and then followed the servant out of Yiranxuan.

--split line--

However, after the banquet in the gazebo was over, Feng Ziying took a step forward with a six or seven point drunkenness. Jia Lian was bored after begging for two in a row, so she said that she was too drunk and went straight back to her yard.

Therefore, only Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan were waiting in front of Jia's house.

Only then did Sun Shaozong look for an opportunity, pulled the stupid overlord aside, and asked in a low voice, "You gave me that Xianglian, but what's hidden in it?"

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the eyes of the second brother!"

Xue Pan didn't hide anything, so he told Sun Shaozong the reason in that doorway.

But it turned out that when Xue Pan bought this Xiangling, Xue Pan had a conflict with a young man surnamed Feng, and as a result, his servants beat him to death by mistake, and got into a lawsuit - it was Jia Yucun who was trying the case at that time.

Jia Yucun pretended to be a ghost, and even pretended that Xue Pan had died of illness, so he closed the case in a daze.

At that time, Xue Pan thought he had gained a lot of money, but later he realized that he was already a "dead person" in the official household registration, and he would never be able to be an official, receive a salary, or return to his hometown in Jinling!

He was already incompetent, and because of this, he couldn't inherit his father and grandfather's lord, so he couldn't hold down those in charge, so he could only watch the Xue family's business deteriorate year by year.

Now Wang Shangshu did not know where he heard about this matter, so he used it as a bargaining chip, saying that as long as the Xue family agreed to the marriage, he would understand the lawsuit for Xue Pan, so that he could inherit his father's lordship in the future - that's why Baochai was so talented. Advise Xue Pan to marry the Wang family.

Since this public case is to be completely resolved, how can Xiangling stay in Xue's house as the cause of this matter?

That's why Xue Pan gave a concubine for the second time today.

After Sun Shaozong listened to the cause and effect, he dispelled the doubts in his heart.

Just as he was about to instruct Xue Pan to be careful in the future, he saw a young woman lingling in the rain.

But seeing her about fifteen or sixteen years old, she came here with a paper umbrella in her hand, her head full of pearls and emeralds trembling slightly, she was dignified and quiet, and there was a bit of girlishness, especially the natural rouge mark between her eyebrows, just like that The finishing touch is general, adding a lot of charm.

Looking at the figure again, although it is wrapped in a skirt, it can be seen that it is half-ripe and half-ripe when walking, which is the best time to pick and grind!

After watching for a long time, Sun Shaozong couldn't help turning his head back, and asked Xue Pan suspiciously, "Such a beauty, are you really willing to give me away?!"

Chapter 93

But Xiangling arrived at the west gate of Rongguo Mansion with a paper umbrella, seeing Xue Pan and Sun Shaozong standing side by side in the door opening, her feet slowed down a little, but immediately quickened her pace and entered the door opening.

She saw that she put away the paper umbrella first, and then stepped forward to pay respects to Xue Pan, saying, "Xiangling is afraid that she will not be able to serve you in the future, please take care of me, and don't let your wife or girl worry about it anymore." .”

As a concubine who was given away by Xue Pan, being able to say these words in front of her new master shows that she is a woman who values ​​affection.

pity……

"My lord, how do I act, do I need to use your little hoof to teach me?"

Xue Pan waved his hand like chasing flies, and said impatiently, "Get in the car, get in the car, don't keep the second brother waiting for a long time!"
