152 question

"Yes! Your Majesty, but... but at today's auction, Prince Hai also arrived. He also deliberately asked the fourth lady of the Pu family and the Miaojiang princess about something. I'm afraid it's..." Eunu looked at it, so I'm afraid..." Eunu thought for a while and then spoke.

"...It's okay, I will investigate this matter carefully. What happened back then... Oh, okay, you go down first!" This sudden news made the face of Emperor Qi, who was in a very happy mood just now, and he fell into the thoughts of the past. Is it a coincidence or...

Pu family house

After Xu took Pu Jinxue back to the Pu family in shame, Pu Jinxue cried again. She was so embarrassed today. The people with outstanding talents in Kyoto are all here today. The affairs of her concubine's daughter were revealed in this way. And the friends she just made all looked at her with questioning eyes. In this way, what bright life will she have in Kyoto in the future? How can she live?

"Xue... Xue'er, it's because my mother is not good, but because we shouldn't go to this banquet today, and we shouldn't be so popular!" Xu patted Pu Jinxue's back and blamed herself.

"Mom, why am I not your daughter? Why shouldn't my daughter go to this banquet? Is there anything less daughter than them? And Lin'er's cousin, how can she be so indifferent to her daughter today? Mom, what should I do? What should I do?" Pu Jinxue threw herself into Xu's arms and cried.

"It's because of my mother's bad, it's because of my mother's bad! Xue'er, don't worry, one day my mother will seek justice for you, and your life will definitely be better than Pu Jinxuan's. Don't worry, Xue'er!" Xu said with great confidence, as if he was painful and very firm.

Today's thrilling was something she didn't expect. She really didn't expect to meet with the royal family so soon. As soon as she arrived, her daughter became so sad. Xu couldn't help but wonder whether her choice back then was right or wrong.

"Madam, it's not good, it's not good, the second young master has been carried back!" Just as the mother and daughter were still crying with their heads in their arms, Ying'er ran in panic and said.

"Release... I carried it back? Who carried it back? What happened again?" After hearing Ying'er's words, Xu suddenly shook his body involuntarily for a few times, and finally asked in disbelief.

"Back to the wife, the second young master... The second young master was carried back by some gangsters. The second young master was beaten so hard that his body was covered in blood. Now they are still calling outside!" Ying'er deeply felt that since she followed Xu and others to Kyoto, this family had never survived, and it was all a concern.

"What... what, covered in blood? Why didn't you say it earlier? Master, hasn't the master come back yet?" Xu was very anxious, but after all, she was just a woman. Women are born to be a weak person in some things, so Xu asked.

"The master and the eldest young master have not come back yet. Madam, should you ask the second master to come and help?" Ying'er also knew what Xu was thinking, so she suggested.

"Hurry! Go and find the second master. I'll go out and see now. Why is Lin'er so uneasy? Xue'er, stay in the house and don't go out. Wait for my mother to come back! Xi'er, go out with me!" Since Ying'er had just said that the person coming was a group of gangsters, she couldn't let Pu Jinxue go with her. After all, Pu Jinxue is a woman waiting to marry into the boudoir.

But there was still someone around her, otherwise she would feel uneasy.

"Mom, is it okay for you to go alone? Otherwise, my daughter will accompany you. After all, we are more powerful, can you really deal with them alone?" Pu Jinxue now put all her hopes on Xu, but she doesn't want anything to happen to Xu now.

"Xue'er, stay in the house honestly and don't go out. If you have any problems, mom will solve them!" Xu just said to Pu Jinxue very sternly this time, and then turned around and left.

"..." To be honest, Pu Jinxue didn't want to go out with her. She had not completely digested the pain today. How could she have the heart to take care of other things now? What's more, Pu Jinlin deserves to be beaten. Isn't it because of their family's life like this now?

When he arrived at the entrance of Pu's house, Xu saw that he was now thrown on the ground, covered in blood, and kept on Pu Jinlin.

****************************************************************************************************

"Lin'er! Lin'er, what's wrong with you?" When Xu saw that his precious son had become like this, he didn't care about being afraid and wanted to go up and see Pu Jinlin's injuries!

"Ah...ah...ah...this lady, Pu Jinlin is indeed your son?" However, before Xu walked forward, there was a gangster who blocked him with his body like a leader.

"Bastard! Give me some respect!" When Xu was anxious, she almost hit the gangster leader. Her face turned red and she suddenly said with some anger.

"Oh, you woman is really shameless. Even a woman like you, I call you a wife, respect you, but you are so unloved. What kind of beauty do you think you have to make me covet? Compared to my girl in Ruyifang, when you go there to wash your feet, you will never look at you, and you will talk about respect with me, bah!" The gangster's head's eyes also looked up and down with his stingy eyes, back and forth, left and right of Xu. While looking at him, he also slandered his lips.

"You...you..." Xu has lived for so many years and has never been insulted, so she was so angry that she couldn't speak at this time.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Your son owes me three thousand taels of silver from Ruyifang. Do you pay it back for him? You dare to find a girl in our Ruyifang without money. You are so brave!" The gangster leader didn't wait for Xu to be there, but he said his purpose.

"What? Three...Three thousand taels of silver? Like... Ruyifang? Don't bully people too much. How could my son go to such a place? It must be yours, it must be accusation!" Xu said in disbelief.

Of course she knew where Ruyifang was? How could she not know Ruyifang for people like her who have been living in Kyoto since she was born? But she really didn't want to believe her, Lin Er would go to that kind of place, and even owed 3,000 taels of silver. How could she be willing to believe this?

"We slander, let's see if this is your son's handwriting, is it the owed note written by your son? OK, if you really don't believe it, then let's go to the official position? Anyway, for someone like your son who can actually owe money, I'm afraid there will be people who will be unforgivable wherever you go!" The gangster leader deliberately shook the owed note in front of Xu's eyes and said.

"..." Xu of course recognized that it was her son's handwriting, so she stood there with a pale face and trembling body, but she didn't know what to say.

"Mom... Help!" Pu Jinlin also listened to their conversation for a long time, so he could only ask Xu for help.

Pu Jinlin knew that if the money could not be paid back today, he would probably have to be borne in his life, so she endured the pain in her body and asked Xu for help.

"What happened to my sister-in-law? Who are you, Jinlin? What's wrong with this?" Just when Xu was still at a loss, Pu Laoer walked out with Ying'er.

"Second brother... Lin'er... is unfortunate... oh..." Xu started crying. Finally, when she saw Pu Laoer, she started crying as if she had found her backbone.

"..." After that, Xu told Pu Laoer about the incident.

"Three...three thousand taels of silver, what should I do?" Pu Laoer didn't know what to say about his nephew, but he understood one thing, that is, if there was no three thousand taels of silver, this matter would definitely not be good.

"Mom, save me! Save me!" Pu Jinlin was frightened when he heard his second uncle's words. He had no idea whether this family still had money, so he could only ask for help from his mother.

Now Xu is also powerless. She originally had some money, but the dress and jewelry she bought for Pu Jinxue would cost her five thousand taels of silver. She originally thought that she could find a good husband for Pu Jinxue at the auction today, but she never expected that such a thing would happen. So today she and Pu Jinxue are both talented. Where can she take so much money now?

"You guy, do you think this is OK? I will give you one thousand taels of silver first. If you come to take those two thousand taels in two days, our family will not be able to escape even if we live here. Moreover, you have heard of the Xu family, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War? That is my mother's family. Don't worry, give me two days, and I will definitely give you the silver!" Xu's family now has completely lost the spirit she had just now. Now she said to him with a low attitude.

****************************************************************************************************

"What you said is just a human word. If it's easy to discuss, we can go back and report, right? Since that's the case, I'll give you another two days. However, I can't give you this debt. You can bring Pu Jinlin back!" The gangster leader was originally just for money, and he also told him about his identity when Pu Jinlin was beaten, so they also went to investigate. Of course, they also knew the identity and background of Xu. Although they are not allowed to be from the Minister's Mansion now, they are a family, so these gangsters cannot do too much.

When Xu saw that the man agreed to let him go first, he quickly winked at Ying'er and asked her to go into the house to get the silver notes. Here, she helped Pu Jinlin up with Xier and Pu Laoer.

Now Pu Jinlin has been beaten to the point of being beaten and covered in blood. When Xu saw him like this, his tears couldn't stop flowing down. Although Pu Lao Er was also very sad, he was a man after all, so he just carried Pu Jinlin back to the house first.

After Ying'er took out a thousand taels of silver bills, Xu handed them over to those people, and the people also left with the silver bills.

"Go and ask the doctor!" Xu said to Ying'er while looking at the backs of those people as they were leaving. After that, she quickly walked into the yard.

So Xu, who rushed into the yard, did not find out. At this time, Ying'er left the direction not to look for the doctor, but to the direction of the minister's mansion.

The Minister's Mansion

"Okay, I know everything. You can go back first!" After hearing Ying'er's report, Mr. Xu waved his hand and said.

Now he doesn't care about Pu Jinlin's small matter. What he cares most about now is Pu Jinxuan's problem. At an auction today, the emperor raised too much money. It is not difficult to imagine that Pu Jinxuan will definitely rise in the future. Today, the Crown Prince and others also see the attitude of Pu Jinxuan. After all, what he was most worried about was how to win over his granddaughter. As for the other unsuccessful ones, he didn't even want to pay attention to it.

"Grandfather, my aunt's trouble is really a big deal now. Now Pu Jinxue was asked in public by Prince Hai like this. Many people know her relationship with us. It's really a shameful person. Don't you know that the lady from Shangshu family and the lady from Duke Xu just came to ask her granddaughter. Now my second cousin is having trouble again. Do they still think this person is not disappointed enough?" Xu Lin'er, who was sitting with her, said very angrily.

At today's auction, she originally wanted to bid, but her grandfather told her that she would not be allowed to bid today. The storm in the Minister's Mansion was finally over. They could not participate in such a storm, so she could only vomit blood and swallow it into her stomach.

"What can you do if you are embarrassed? Can you still not recognize your aunt?" Mr. Xu was also upset now, so his tone was quite bad.

"Grandfather, Lin'er... Lin'er didn't mean that..." Xu Lin'er was also a little confused, not knowing how to explain.

Originally, she just wanted to exclaim bitterly, but she didn't expect her grandfather to speak to her in such a tone, so she didn't know how to react for a while.

"Master, do you have something to do?" The wife of the minister first gave a wink to her granddaughter, and then asked her old man.

"Is there anything wrong in my heart? Don't you know? Look at what you asked you to do, but you can't do it well. At today's auction, haven't you seen the situation clearly? That Pu Jinxuan will definitely be a blessing in the future. Even if she can't use it for us, she can't treat her as an enemy. Look at the good things you did, hum!" Mr. Xu looked at Mr. Xu's wife, then looked at Xu Lin'er, and finally said with a hum.

"What can we do if that girl doesn't eat the hard and soft girl? If we have a little solution, we won't be like that. Pu Jinlin is also in a bad mood. Even if he has changed the Geng Tie, how can he return without success?" The wife of the minister said with resentment on her face.

****************************************************************************************************

"Don't mention Geng Tie to me anymore. Don't think I don't know your thoughts. I advise you to put away all your little thoughts quickly. It's yours, it's yours, it's not yours, and you don't want to get it delusionally. You won't be able to see where Prince Yi's heart is, so don't do things that make the Xu family shame. Pu Jinxue is the best example. Lin'er, you have always been the smartest, and your grandfather values ​​you the most. You can't do things that disappoint your grandfather!" Mr. Xu said to Xu Lin'er in a targeted manner.

As early as today's auction, he discovered the strangeness of his granddaughter. It turned out that the root of everything was Prince Yi, but his granddaughter didn't think about it. The second lady of the Marquis of the Marquis of Qi Bo's mansion and the granddaughter of Mr. Zhang Ge, were not beautiful and talented, but in the end, they succeeded. Prince Yi paid a million taels of silver to redeem himself. The money was a small matter, but it was a big deal. Therefore, if he didn't knock on his granddaughter, it would be impossible.

"Grandfather, I..." After Xu Lin'er was told that her face was slightly red and her eyes were filled with tears.

She had always been smart, but suddenly became stuttering. She didn't know what to say, because what her grandfather said was indeed what she was thinking in her heart.

"Lin'er, you are smart and clever. Grandfather knows you will understand. You and your grandmother must continue to work hard on Pu Jinxuan. I believe the Empress Dowager and the Emperor should see her soon!" Mr. Xu sighed and said.

Xu Lin'er's tears couldn't stop flowing, Pu Jinxuan! I and you never ended up! All the humiliation today is thanks to her, and she will definitely not let her go!

Pu family house

"Mom! Mom! Have you heard that Pu Jinlin went to the fireworks place. As a result, people were chasing their debts and came to the door. Just now, Xu took 1,000 taels of silver to them. I heard that he still owed them two thousand taels. Mom, if this continues, then our Liu'er's dowry should..." At this time, Luo ran in and said.

"What? Who did you hear? One thousand taels of silver? That loser actually took one thousand taels of money at one time? She discussed this with the boss whether she was really going against the will!" When Mrs. Pu heard the amount of 1,000 taels of silver, she immediately became energetic.

Mrs. Pu is really sensitive to the amount of 1,000 taels of silver. What period is it now? It was the period when the Pu family needed money the most. Then Xu made a decision privately, saying that if he took 1,000 taels, he would pay the money to the prodigal son? How could this be true?

"Who said that? The head of the house has already gone. I heard that a group of people just came and shouted in front of our door. Ying'er called out specifically. The head of the house has not come back yet. I just asked Yuzhu to inquire. Is it still fake? I really didn't expect that this sister-in-law always told us that she had no money and no money every day. When something happened to her son, she was so generous!" Luo continued to delete the wind and ignite the fire here.

"Hmph, we're going to see what big a thing her son did. He spent so much money, all of them were children of my Pu family. Do you have to treat Bo'er and Liu'er equally?" Mrs. Pu acted as she stood up and went to Xu's place to question her.

She now completely treats herself as a matter of trouble, and she doesn't think about who she lives in and who she eats. Now she still wants to question others. After all, she is too selfish after all.

"Milk, you can't go there like this. We want to go there, just to visit my second cousin's body. Milk, before my granddaughter gets married, my granddaughter really doesn't want to cause any more trouble. If the second cousin's affairs are known to everyone, do you think this will be a good thing for my granddaughter? So, let's be patient for a while. Anyway, the money is not what we have taken, and she has agreed to my dowry. Even if she can't pay it back then, it's better to make trouble now!" Pu Jinliu has figured out a lot of things after so long. Her foundation is too shallow and needs Xu's life to come later, so she must never tear her face with Xu.

"Old lady, it's not good. The master is back and fights with the lady. The big room is now in chaos. Old lady, hurry up and take a look!" At this time, Yuzhu's anxious voice came in, but if you look carefully, you will find that there was pride in her eyes.
