Xue Pan's order, Li Man could directly refuse, saying that Xue Pan was not qualified to point fingers at him about Baoyu, after all, he was not the serious master of Rongguo Mansion, just a relative of Rongguo Mansion, and he couldn't give orders, but who didn't know that this Xue Pan Uncle Xue would turn his face and deny people, and the officials of the Terracotta Division dared to fight, didn't they dare to beat a few slaves, besides, now that Uncle Xue is the official of the Xicheng Terracotta Division, he dares to give orders seriously, this official doesn't dare to take it lightly, Li Gui didn't dare not agree, but this order conflicted with Jia's mother's meaning, "The old lady specially ordered, saying that it was to accumulate blessings and virtues for the second master, so she asked us to bring silver money, if we meet monks and nuns outside, all of them must give alms to help the poor, and the second master will personally give alms, if the uncle orders like this, I am afraid that it will ......"

Li Gui was a little embarrassed, Xue Pan slandered what virtue can be accumulated like this, in his opinion, it is useless, but Jia Mu said this, in the end, it is not easy to refute directly, "That's the case, first check the degree, if it is issued by our Dayue Dynasty, it means that it is a serious monk, and it is natural to give alms, if not, then there is no need to give silver, and if it is a difficult person, some lonely old people or those who sell their sons and daughters, it is good to give them some silver, why stick to monks and nuns?" ”

Li Gui hurriedly responded, so Xue Pan turned around and went in, and before he arrived in the courtyard where he was listening to the play, Xiangling pounced out, with a little girl like a crane by her side, she took Xue Pan's hand, "Uncle, I just heard Baoyu say that I met my father outside, didn't you?" ”

Baoyu's big mouth was so fast that he couldn't say it, he went to tell Xiangling again so quickly, "Yes," Xue Pan saw Xiangling's pleading expression, and he regretted it a little, regretting that he didn't ask someone to take Zhen Shiyin down just now, but it is estimated that it is not easy to take, since Zhen Shiyin is a master in the world, at least there are some means, "Yes, but I said to invite him to come in and meet you, but he said that it was not too late to meet, so he still left." ”

Xiangling was obviously a little sad, her eyes were full of tears, but she couldn't bear to roll in her eyes and refused to cry, "I haven't seen you for so many years, why don't you want to come to me." ”

"There must be a last resort," Xue Pan explained and comforted, "In the future, if you are free, you will definitely come again, don't be sad, he said that he will come again when he is free." ”

Seeing Xiangling so sad, it was not suitable to go in to listen to the play again, so Xue Pan instructed He'er to take Xiangling back to the yard to rest, don't come out again, and specially persuaded her, and directly coaxed Xiangling to laugh, He'er smiled, "Sister Qingwen and the sisters in each room are holding a tea party in the uncle's courtyard, if Xiangling passes, I'm afraid that Sister Qingwen will laugh at me, so it's better for me to take it to the girl's room." ”

Xiangling left, Xue Pan arrived at the back, before entering the garden, he felt very lively, lively to the point of noisy, or to the outside to be deserted, so he instructed his mother-in-law, "Talk to my wife, just say that I will go around outside, and I will go back later." ”

After saying this, he raised his feet and walked out of Lixiang Courtyard again, and walked casually towards this side of the road, but this walk came to the back door of Jia Yuyuan.
