29. Willing to help

Aunt Xue asked Mama Wang to call Xue Pan, Mama Wang didn't move, and she didn't want to go out at all, "Madam, the uncle changed his clothes and went out early in the morning, saying that there are still important things in the yamen, and he can't delay it, I'm afraid that he won't be able to come back in the next few days, so he can only live in the yamen." ”

Aunt Xue said, "Why are you so busy? Do you still want to live in the yamen? ”

"Uncle said, there is a mess in the market outside, there are thieves everywhere doing illegal things, as the commander of the Soldiers and Horses Division, he is naturally duty-bound, to serve the court, to share the worries of the officials, so he went out early in the morning." Mama Wang is not polite to speak, no matter whether you are a friend in the world or not, "In my opinion, Mrs. doesn't have to call Uncle to talk about this matter, the people in our inner house shouldn't care about the outside affairs, isn't that what Mrs. meant last year?" ”

The woman couldn't help but sobbed again, and Aunt Xue gave Mama Wang a white look, "Don't say that, since Pan'er is not at home, then ask someone to go to the yamen and talk to Pan'er, saying that the name of this family is good, in any case, for the sake of the old feelings, don't be too harsh, as for how to deal with it, I don't dare to say anything, after all, it's a matter of official business, I'm such a woman, it's really not easy to talk." ”

It can only be like this, although the woman is helpless, but she also knows that she has not been in touch for many years, so once she asks to come to the door, it is not easy to get Aunt Xue to promise so, so she can only thank her again and again and say goodbye, Aunt Xue said angrily, "Look at you, what are you talking about, in front of the guests, you don't save her face at all, what is the matter and then send someone to tell her that it can't be done?" Why embarrass the family like this. ”

"Mrs., you are too kind, you have not been in touch for many years, you have to say such a thing, if it is something inside, it doesn't hurt if Mrs. agrees, but this is a matter of official business, she also said it so lightly to beg, saying that she was young and ignorant, so she was caught, I don't believe it at all, if it is really so well-behaved, the uncle is not saying that it is so cruel, everyone has to be detained, it must not be so avoided, I am afraid that there are many things here, if the uncle listens to his wife, Let go of this person, I'm afraid that I will be talked about by others on official business, but I heard Zhen'er say, many people outside the yamen are very dissatisfied with the uncle, and they want to think about wearing small shoes for the uncle, at such a time, it is not the most important matter, why bother to find trouble. ”

Mama Wang is not a fair and selfless person who never goes through the back door, she just thinks that at this critical point in time, there is no need to delay Xue Pan's serious errand for some people who are not very good relations, if there is any close person who talks about it, then it is naturally different, Aunt Xue smiled, "I don't know this truth, it's just that she came to ask in person, and she had an old friendship in the past, so it's not easy to refuse, but why should you be like this, you can't come to the stage in front of others, but let people say that we don't want to help people." , and the number of courtesies is missing. ”

"It's hard for my wife to say this, but I can say it, and I can't make them think that our family is willing to help with anything."
