Ask for family advice

Uncle Xunshun recounted the troubles during this period, the assets of Uncle Xunshun's mansion that had shrunk by half, and what Mingshuo said in the early court.

When the two sons heard that the matter was so serious.

The family's assets have been reduced by half, so what will happen to them in the future?

The eldest son said: "Dad, you have more than just two children: me and my brother!"

Uncle Xun Shun thought it was right, he also had two concubines.

Was it those two unworthy people who did it?

So, when I called people over, I also asked for help from the family, and each person received ten boards.

The legitimate son would be beaten ten times if he had no faults, but the concubine might be the one who offended Mingshuo, so he should be beaten even more.

However, upon asking, the two concubines were even more unjust!

The difference between the concubine and the concubine in Xun Shunbo's mansion is very obvious. The concubine can go out to fight cocks, race horses, and have sex, but the concubine needs his personal approval to go out.

A legitimate son is entitled to two hundred taels of silver per month, and a concubine is entitled to twenty taels of silver per month.

The legitimate son went to an academy to study, and the concubine went to a private school.

His two legitimate sons were completely different from each other in front of Ming Shuo, and they were not enough, let alone a bastard.

Who is that?

The eldest son guessed: "Could it be the sisters?"

Xun Shunbo was very aggressive today. If this matter is not resolved, Mingshuo will not stop.

Although he is young, his skills are extremely powerful.

I think back then, Gui Yuping, the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Rites, just offended Mingshuo for some reason, and was demoted several levels in a row to the eighth-rank county magistrate!

In Mingshuo's eyes, Uncle Xunshun's Mansion was really not enough. He waved his hand, fearing that the Ni family would no longer be able to stay in the capital.

Xun Shunbo said: "Call everyone over here!"

Soon, the four daughters of Xun Shunbo's first concubine and third concubine all came.

Looking at the little concubine who was only four years old, Xun Shunbo asked the wet nurse to take her away.

Then, he looked at the three daughters with majestic eyes and said in a deep voice: "You should think about it, when did you offend someone named Ming!"

Xun Shunbo is talking about Mingshuo, but considering that his daughters may not have anything to do with Mingshuo, it would be good to know that his surname is Mingshuo.

When he asked this question, the two concubines were baffled, but Ni Yuxi's heart skipped a beat and her face suddenly stiffened.

Xun Shunbo's eyes were fixed on his three daughters. The strangeness about her did not escape his eyes. Xun Shunbo suddenly said: "You are so brave. Do you think life is better now? Lian Mingshuo

Do you dare to offend me?"

Ni Yuxi stammered: "No, I didn't, I didn't offend Mingshuo!"

"what is going on?"

Ni Yuxi said aggrievedly: "At that time, I just said it casually..."

Uncle Xun Shun was about to be furious. He said with a sullen face, "Don't avoid the important and take the easy. Tell me carefully from the beginning. If you dare to hide the slightest bit, I will break your legs!"

Ni Yuxi was so frightened that she shed tears. She had always had a high status in the family, and her father loved her very much. Her two brothers let her go. As for those brothers and sisters, she didn't look at them seriously.

But now, her father is being cruel to her.

Seeing that she still didn't say anything, Xun Shunbo lost his patience and said viciously: "Speak!"

Ni Yuxi didn't dare to hide anything, so she had to tell everything about the seventh prince's reception banquet.

Xun Shunbo felt the veins on his forehead twitching, and his face became more and more gloomy.

The eldest son said: "Dad, the younger sister is targeting Ming Qinxue. Besides, Qinxue has left the Ming family and is not counted as a Ming family member, so the younger sister is not considered to have offended the Ming family, right?"

Xun Shunbo looked at him with a sullen face, wondering why you are so stupid: "Who can reason with you? Go and reason with Mingshuo?"

The eldest son took a step back unconsciously.

He had heard about Mingshuo, who was so wise that he seemed like a demon, but on the surface he was a gentleman, but secretly he was determined to retaliate. Of course, the term "revenge" did not refer to those who offended him, but to those who offended his family.

people.

Therefore, there is a saying quietly circulating among the dandies in the capital: It is better to offend Mingshuo himself than to offend his family. Offending Mingshuo himself will only peel off the skin. If you are lucky and meet him in a good mood, it will only break the skin. But offending Mingshuo himself will only peel off the skin.

If he kills his family, it means he has no skin!

It's so terrible, who dares to offend it?

Thinking of what his father had said before, he couldn't help but look at Ni Yuxi complainingly: "Little sister, I asked you to attend the gathering of ladies in the capital to perform well in that circle, not to offend others. Miss Fu's request

When you play the piano, it doesn't matter to you whether someone dances or not? If you want to dance, why do you want to talk about Ming Qinxue?"

Ni Yuxi sobbed and said: "Dad, brother, I am doing this for our family too."

The younger son said dissatisfiedly: "Bah, sister, you are doing our best to let our family suffer such a big loss because of you?"

Ni Yuxi cried: "I, how did I know that Mingshuo would still protect Ming Qinxue? Doesn't it mean that Qinxue and the Ming family had fallen out a long time ago. The Ming family didn't care about Ming Qinxue. Miss Qin bullied her in the street before. Ming

Isn’t there anyone in the family who stands out? I was thinking that back then, Ming Qinxue broke off the engagement and humiliated the eldest prince. Sister **... no, even though the eldest prince’s concubine married the eldest prince, she must have hated Ming Qinxue in her heart.

Yes, if I embarrass Ming Qinxue, the eldest princess will definitely remember my loyalty. As long as she gives a little support in the future, our uncle will still worry about not having a good life."

Uncle Xunshun said nothing.

The eldest son said: "Didn't you say that Mr. Jiang has a good impression of you?"

The youngest son shouted: "That's the son of the Taifu family, the second-largest figure next to Mingshuo among the younger generation in the capital!"

The eldest son was dissatisfied: "So what? Our uncle is a noble man, so we are not far behind!"

The youngest son looked at him with disdain: "You are the only one who thinks that a lord from an uncle's house can surpass the family background of the Taifu!"

Uncle Xunshun didn't like hearing these words anymore, and he said calmly: "You don't have to say that. The more you marry a girl, the more you marry her, and the more you marry her, the wife you marry less. Our uncle's house is slightly inferior to the Taifu's house, but as long as the Taifu's son

Is this little difference a problem when I like your sister?"

The youngest son did not dare to quarrel with his father, so he had to change the subject: "Father, let's talk about the fact that my little sister offended the Ming family first!"

Xun Shunbo glanced at Ni Yuxi and asked, "Didn't you also accept the post? I think Mr. Jiang will also attend the poetry tea party held by Princess Rilan in Yuqing Garden later, right?"

How did Ni Yuxi know?

But she knew in her heart that because of Ming Qinxue's incident, Ming Shuo was provoked to deal with Xun Shunbo's house, and now her father and brothers were resentful of her. Her eyes flashed and she whispered: "Yes... But Mr. Jiang

Even though he helped me last time, he and I... are not familiar with each other!"

The eldest son smiled and said: "Sister, what you said is a bit modest. Who doesn't know that you and Jiang Xin... Princess Jing are close? In the past, Princess Jing liked to take you with her to parties. You must have met Mr. Jiang too.

.Otherwise, why did Young Master Jiang speak for you last time?"

is that so?

Ni Yuxi remembered that she had indeed met Mr. Jiang several times.

After all, the Jiang brothers and sisters are so outstanding, and their family background is so prominent. Taifu Jiang has an honorable status. Whenever there is a gathering in Beijing, who wouldn't be proud that their brothers and sisters can come? Regardless of whether they come or not, the post must be sent.

The Jiang brothers and sisters are also very approachable.

Just because of the strong defense between men and women, she never spoke to Jiang Mian until the reception banquet of the Seventh Prince.

And that square white silk handkerchief!

Ni Yuxi had a slight smile on her face, with a slight blush on her face. Maybe her elder brother was right, she had never seen Mr. Jiang, and Mr. Jiang had not seen her too.

Daddy has said that you should marry a wife at a low level and a husband at a high level. Although her father and brother are only serving as casualties and are not above the sixth rank, Mr. Jiang is now also at the sixth rank.

No one needed to say anything else, she had already figured out the entire possibility in her mind.

Xun Shunbo's face was still not cheerful, and he said calmly: "Xier, if you have the opportunity the day after tomorrow, if you have a good chat with Mr. Jiang, if you become friends with the Jiang family, offending an abandoned daughter of the Ming family will not be a big deal.

I believe Mingshuo will give the Jiang family this face!"

Before Ni Yuxi could understand, she saw that Xun Shunbo's face had darkened and his voice was a bit colder: "If you can't get Mr. Jiang to intercede for you the day after tomorrow, then you should go to Ming Qinxue's residence and kneel down to apologize.

Until she expresses forgiveness herself!"

Uncle Xunshun knew that if no one else interceded, that madman Mingshuo would continue to target the mansion of Uncle Xunshun. An apology was necessary. Only when Ming Qinxue forgives, that madman Mingshuo will stop.

Why not just apologize tomorrow?

Ming Qinxue would probably not accept a general apology, and Mingshuo would also feel it was insincere.

If Ni Yuxi is asked to kneel down and apologize tomorrow, if Mr. Jiang really thinks highly of Xi'er, he will probably feel disgusted when he learns that Xi'er apologized to the abandoned daughter of the Ming family!

Even if Mr. Jiang doesn't dislike it, what about the Jiang family and Princess Jing?

Princess Jing definitely has feelings for Ming Qinxue. If she apologizes first, even if Mr. Jiang has thoughts about Xi'er, Princess Jing will not agree.

Even for such a long time, Xi'er has been trying to please Princess Jing in every way, and she has been in vain.

The younger son was surprised: "It's just an apology, why kneel down? If I really have to kneel down, how can I, the Xunshun family, have any dignity?"

Uncle Xunshun said coldly: "Do you think my uncle's house has any face now? If you want to make my uncle's house look good, you should work hard! Then you can also become a sixth-grade Hanlin bachelor at this age. What do you think?
