Chapter 728: The Xue Family Forgets Sadness, The Shi Family Is Displeased

Xue Pan was among the first batch of targets to be severely punished. This group of people were considered chickens that scare monkeys, so everyone from top to bottom took it seriously.

The Jinyiwei sent out elites, led by Kou Zhong and others, to train them intensively for half a month. They were all trained to be black and thin, and could obey the instructor's instructions. They looked a bit like an army.

, had just been arranged to work in the village outside the city. Of course, those who had committed the most heinous crimes had gone to build the imperial mausoleum.

The days of reeducation through labor are not scattered.

In addition to four hours of forced labor during the day, they also had two hours of cultural classes at night.

To put it simply, in addition to letting them know the majesty of the emperor and national laws, they also need to understand themselves and why they are here.

Then teach them to practice writing and calligraphy.

You must know that although the Great Zhou Dynasty was a Han Dynasty, the literacy rate was still as low as ever. Xue Pan was born into a wealthy family, so he naturally knew a few words. As a result, he was promoted to the team leader. He led the team to read articles in their spare time. They were nothing more than some studious and motivated people.

It's just an article of praise.

This day was the day to release them. Early in the morning, Jinyiwei sent dozens of four-wheeled carriages, stuffed a group of people into them, and sent them to the Jinyiwei Commander's Yamen to screen them one by one and release them.

Naturally, their family members got the news early in the morning, and Aunt Xue also arranged for her servant to drive and wait outside the Jinyiwei Yamen.

At that time, a large number of people came out, and it was so crowded that many family members could not help but rush over and cry when they saw their own family members coming out.

So the Xue family boy was dumbfounded.

There are too many people, and everyone is dark. Where is my uncle?

It wasn't until Xue Pan walked up to him that the young man realized what he was doing and saluted quickly. However, Xue Pan grabbed him and said, "The old man is going home today, so there is no need to salute. Are the wife and girl okay?"

"Replying to the uncle, the wife and the girl have been looking forward to the uncle coming home. Early this morning, they arranged for the little one to come over and wait. At the moment, the wife and the girl are probably waiting at home and are tired of waiting." The boy said quickly.

"Well, let's go, they have been worried in the past!" Xue Pan said lightly.

With such a calm style, how could he have any trace of his old uncle’s blaring style?

It seems that a lot of changes have been made in the labor camp in the past two months!

The boy complained in his heart, but didn't say anything. Instead, he was a little more in awe. After Xue Pan got in the car, he drove home.

When we arrived at Xue's house, some servants had already prepared things, stepped on the brazier, and used leaves to wash away the bad luck all over their bodies. When they entered the main room, they saw Aunt Xue, with Baochai's support, rushing towards her with a cry.

He hugged Xue Pan and said words such as "My son, my heart and my heart are suffering" as he cried.

Xue Baochai comforted her mother while staring at her brother. She saw that although he had lost a lot of weight, his former exuberant and excited expression was gone. Instead, he was restrained and calm, and his eyes were not as bright as before due to excessive play.

Full of bloodshot eyes, but actually much brighter.

Could it be that in this regard, the labor camp not only did not destroy his body or make him suffer, but actually made him mentally strong?

Baochai just thought of this when she saw Xue Pan gently pushed her mother away, knelt down directly and said: "Mom, in the past, I was disobedient and lost discipline, which made my mother worried all day long, and my sister who was affected also felt sorry for me.

I have lost a lot of money. All of this is due to my son being unfilial and my brother failing to set an example. Now that I think about it, it is really shameful. From now on, I have decided to change my ways. If I ever worry my mother and sister again,

That day, I will never live again.”

After hearing what Xue Pan said, Aunt Xue felt relieved and emotional at the same time, and couldn't help crying again.

Baochai was still sensible and hurriedly comforted her mother and said to her brother: "If my brother can change his past, my mother and I will definitely be ecstatic."

Aunt Xue finally finished crying. Seeing that Xue Pan was so dark and thin, she said: "Poor child, he must be very hungry." She quickly ordered the kitchen to serve food and wine, and she wanted to comfort her son.

But they didn't expect that Xue Pan was sitting there, not even drinking. Although he wolfed down his food, he was very polite. Aunt Xue and Baochai were stunned to see it, but they were deeply relieved.

It seems that Xue Pan has really changed.

Just when the Xue family was happy, the Shi family was unhappy.

Although Shi Nai, the Marquis of Baoling, was sent to another place, Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, was at home. Considering that Xiangyun was getting older, he thought of getting her engaged.

Marquis Zhongjing took office as his aunt, and raised Xiangyun from an early age. In fact, he treated her as his own daughter. After a long selection, he chose Wei Ruolan, the prince of Wing Chun Marquis, because of their family background, wealth, age of the child, and appearance.

All match very well.

But when I asked for my name, something went wrong.

Because according to common sense, asking for a name means asking the woman's name and date of birth, and the purpose is to calculate whether the horoscopes are compatible. Calculating the horoscopes before marriage is a wedding custom that continues to this day, and people also attach great importance to it.

However, according to common sense, when both families are satisfied with each other, the fortune teller will naturally want to ask for a good omen, and at least he will find a match made in heaven, so that he can get a big fortune.

But when the horoscopes of the two families were combined, problems arose.

Of course the fortune teller said yes, but someone in the Qintian Prison who was familiar with Lord Wei quietly told him that the horoscopes of Miss Shi and Young Master Wei were very different.

mother.

As for how this Qin Tian Jian had nothing to do to calculate the fortunes of his family, that is unknown. Lin Zhao would not admit that he had tampered with this.

Marquis Wei was also experienced in the world, so he naturally did not believe that his friends in Qintianjian would test his children's horoscopes for no reason, so he arranged for someone to conduct a thorough investigation of Shi Xiangyun.

So the Marquis learned that the girl from the Shi family lost her parents when she was an infant, and was raised by her uncle. She complained about her aunt's harsh treatment outside the home, and could not do anything at home. She was so exhausted from doing work in the middle of the night that the delicate work was only for her cousin.

The girl is now eleven or twelve years old. When she came to live in Rongguo Mansion, she still lived in a separate room with her cousin. She also remembered the friendship that she and her cousin had eaten and slept together since they were young, so her cousin accidentally broke in.

In the boudoir, I washed my cousin's face and combed her hair, and remembered the story of how I promised my cousin's maid to spend a long time together. It's just that according to the critics, this girl has a tough life and is the easiest to conquer.

So not two days later, news came out from the Wei family of the Wing Chun Marquis that Wei Ruolan's stepmother, Mrs. Wei's housekeeper, was unlucky and found a lot of shortfalls. The Marquis Wei was furious and put her in solitary confinement, along with her biological son.

After a lot of frustration, Lord Wei then announced that the eldest son Wei Ruolan had been ordered by the Qin Tianjian not to marry early. He took him to practice every day, hoping that he would first establish a career and then start a family, so the Wei and Shi families discussed marriage.

Let it go.

However, the subsequent news is also gratifying. The Shi family did not relax Shi Xiangyun's upbringing because of the failure to discuss marriage with the Wei family. They kept her doing needlework at home every day and learned the rules. She was not allowed to go out easily. Even Mrs. Jia sent someone to

I picked it up twice, but still didn't agree.

Because of his busy official duties, Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, had not been able to do much about his family. After he learned that the engagement between the Wei and Shi families was unresolved, he hurriedly put aside his official duties and hurried home.

After he and his wife sorted out the matter in detail, he couldn't help crying and laughing, and he and Mrs. Shi looked at each other for a long time.

In the end, it was Mrs. Shi who broke the deadlock and said with a wry smile: "Master, do you think I should choose a day to go to Lord Lin's house to pay a courtesy? After all, it was Xiangyun who was rude before."

Shi Ding sighed: "Isn't it too late to go now?"

Mrs. Shi said: "That's better than not going." Then she said: "Sir, Xiangyun is also old. Since the Wei family's affairs are not going to work out, I'm going to look at it and tell her to have another family quickly? After all, she

There are two more people below, Xiangxia and Xiangwei. Xiangxia followed her second brother to take office. The second sister-in-law also said that they would keep an eye on her, but Xiangyun is her sister after all. If she is determined, Xiangwei can also marry her, right?

"

Shi Ding said: "It's up to my wife to make the decision."

Mrs. Shi sighed and nodded. Shi Ding looked at her tired face and felt a little guilty. He took Mrs. Shi's hand and said, "I know I have wronged you these days."
