Xue Pan definitely experienced the most difficult day in his life that day.
When I returned to Lixiangyuan, the soreness and numbness in my arms seemed not to be my own, and I didn't dare to show it.
I was so frightened by Jia Cong that I felt angry and scared. After all, there was more of a fear component.
At this time, Xue Pan was just stupid, or spoiled, thinking that he could do whatever he wanted with his own money.
But when he arrived in the capital, no matter how arrogant he was, he knew that this was not a place where he could run wild.
Xue Pan in the Dream of Red Mansions truly became a hateful bastard after he settled in the capital and was influenced by the Jia clan members of Ningrong Street and Jia Zhen from Ningguo Mansion. At this time, he has not completely degenerated.
As for asking the servants around him to teach Jia Cong a lesson, that doesn't happen.
After all, Jia Cong is the bastard of the General's Mansion, so he can't do whatever he wants. At least he doesn't have the courage to do so without being familiar with the internal situation of the Rongguo Mansion.
If you really want to do it, you don't have to think too much about who the Jia clan will help.
That is to say, Xue Pan had just arrived in Beijing and was quite unfamiliar with everything in the capital. He was still a little nervous and afraid. At this time, he did not have the courage to explode randomly.
At the moment, I was so frightened by Jia Cong that I almost peed my pants in the clan school, and I didn't even dare to show my face.
He was really scared. Whenever he thought of the tragedy of Jia Cong wielding two stone locks weighing twenty kilograms and throwing them directly on him, he couldn't help but get chills and dare not continue thinking about it.
"Sister, prepare a generous gift!"
Holding back the pain in his arm, Xue Pan told Xue Baochai: "I will personally deliver it to Brother Cong in the first room tomorrow!"
An eighteen-year-old strong boy didn't show any signs of abnormality when he called his eight-year-old brother "Cong San Ge", which is enough to illustrate the nature of this bully and fear of the strong.
"Why did you think of giving a gift to Brother Cong in the first house?"
Xue Baochai was much smarter than Xue Pan, and he immediately noticed something was wrong, and curiously asked: "Even if you are interested in Baoyu, your brother is not that interested, right?"
She often stayed with the Sanchun sisters, so she naturally knew the status of the concubine in the Rongguo Mansion. She was not surprised to see her brother paying so much attention to the eldest son Jia Cong.
"Sister, don't worry so much, remember to prepare a generous gift!"
His arms were really sore, and Xue Pan didn't want to be exposed in front of his sister, so he responded casually and went back to his room.
He lifted the stone lock forty times in a row!
When did Uncle Xue suffer so much?
It's a pity that he didn't dare to confront Jia Cong, so he could only suffer.
He didn't know how he would live in the future, but Jia Cong had warned him that he would have to go to the clan school and report on time in the future, otherwise he would not look good.
Xue Pan has no courage to resist now!
…
On the other side, the more Xue Baochai thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
She is very clear about her brother's virtues.
If something hadn't happened, with his brother's temperament, how could he have given gifts to the eldest brother Jia Cong for no reason, and he had repeatedly emphasized giving generous gifts.
Feeling confused, he summoned his personal maid and ordered her to go to her brother's servant to inquire about what happened.
The eldest maid Ying'er went out as ordered and came back soon with a white face.
"What's wrong with you?"
Xue Baochai was taken aback and hurriedly asked what happened.
The eldest maid Ying'er was obviously frightened. It took a while before she finally came back to her senses and told all the information she had found out.
"..."
Xue Baochai was also shocked and didn't know how to react.
I felt a little angry in my heart, and I felt a little more disgusted with Jia Cong, the eldest concubine.
Although she knew that her brother had some wrongdoings, but she could not help her relatives, she had no good feelings towards Jia Cong who threatened her brother.
But when she turned around, she felt quite incredible.
If she remembered correctly, Jia Cong, the concubine of the eldest son, was only in his early eight years!
And the elder brother Xue Pan is already eighteen years old...
A strong young man was threatened by an eight-year-old child, and was forced to lift a stone lock forty times. She really couldn't imagine such a ridiculous scene.
But the fact is that her brother is obviously cowarded, and he still wants to send generous gifts to her to please him, which makes her feel aggrieved no matter how much she thinks about it.
At this moment, Xue Baochai really wanted to get angry, stand up for her brother, and teach Jia Cong a lesson.
There is no doubt that with her knowledge of the inner courtyard of the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Cong, a wealthy concubine, would definitely not be able to take advantage of her with just a little provocation.
But if this happens, my brother's life will be even more difficult.
On the other hand, she actually hopes to have someone who can control her brother.
The experience of going to Beijing this time was definitely not easy for the Xue family.
I have been wandering on the road for more than a year, and as long as I have a clear mind, I will be able to detect something wrong.
The root cause of all this is that my brother beat the squire to death in Jinling.
Jinling is one of the most prosperous places in Daqing, and the Xue family is an out-and-out local snake in Jinling, one of the most powerful locals.
The Xue family's wealth is mainly due to their close relationship with the powerful people in the capital. Even the prefect of Jinling would not dare to provoke them easily, so their life should not be too smooth.
Even if Xue's father passes away suddenly and the sidelines are watching him with eager eyes, there is no need to worry too much with the power of his uncle Wang Ziteng.
Absolutely no, no, my brother beat a country squire to death in broad daylight. This is no joke.
The local clans in Jinling are extremely powerful, have complicated relationships, and have a prosperous literary style. They are not friendly to imperial merchant families like the Xue family. Otherwise, their family would not have left in a hurry. They had heard some rumors that were very unfavorable to their brother.
What?
When they arrived in the capital, in order to maintain their influence, the Xue family had to rely on the Rongguo Mansion, and life was not as easy as it seemed.
Xue Baochai was naturally angry and hoped that someone could restrain his brother.
The capital is not as good as Jinling, and there should not be too many dignitaries, emperors, relatives, and with my brother's arrogant temper, offending anyone at will may bring disaster to the Xue family.
Therefore, Xue Baochai was angry and somewhat hopeful about Jia Cong's attitude, which was very complicated.
…
Jia Cong had absolutely no idea that teaching Xue Pan a lesson would cause such a big psychological disturbance for Xue Baochai. Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
But when he received the generous gift from Xue Pan himself the next day, and the man's careful and courteous appearance, he couldn't help but smile.
"You kid, be honest and don't bother studying in the family. And don't disturb other people's self-study. As for other times, I can't control it!"
He opened his mouth with a smile, and his tone was relaxed but extremely firm: "But there is one thing. Since you have gone to Jia clan school, you can't be late and leave early. You have to survive the class even if you sleep. Otherwise, I don't mind asking you to play with stone locks. Forty
The kind that weighs a pound!”
Xue Pan was so frightened that his face turned pale and he nodded repeatedly, probably...
