After rebirth, the female supporting role only wanted to have a grand funeral

Chapter 440 Silver and Osmanthus Cake
Seeing the three fingers raised by Xue Chen, Xue Shu remained indifferent.

Does she look like someone who can be bought with 3 taels of silver?
Xue Chen gritted his teeth secretly, and added two more fingers with great difficulty.

Five-month sweet-scented osmanthus cake!This still can't take you little girl? !
Xue Shu blinked.

5 million taels?
That's more or less.

"Mother, my elder brother is going to start a family in the future. If you don't let my elder brother look here, what if I don't understand things in the future and make my sister-in-law angry?" Xue Shu said.

Hearing this, Xue Lu looked at Xue Chen with a kind of scrutiny. After thinking about it carefully, what Xue Shu said made sense: "Then you stay here, don't talk nonsense!"

"...Yes." Although he felt very uncomfortable after being scolded around the corner, Xue Chen was very pleased to be able to stay anyway.

Xue Lu looked at him again, got up and went back to the house.

As soon as Xue Lushi left, Xue Shu stretched out her hand towards Xue Chen.

Xue Chen: "...?"

Seeing Xue Chen's confused face, Xue Shu couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Brother, didn't you agree on 5 taels of silver? You don't want to renege on your debt!"

"Fifty thousand..." Xue Chen's face turned pale, "Isn't it five osmanthus cakes?!"

The two brothers and sisters were relatively silent.

Xue Shu twitched the corners of her mouth, and opened her mouth slowly: "Mother—"

"Here you are!" Xue Chen hastily interrupted her, "I'll just give you this! It's really dark!"

It's all Jing Xing's fault, his good sister has only been with him for so long, and it has become like this.

I'm so pissed off.

Only then did Xue Shu stop talking. Seeing Xue Chen gnashing his teeth, she even wanted to hum a little tune.

"Miss." Hong Ling, who had just left, trotted back and saw that Xue Lu was not in the yard, so she lowered her voice, "Miss, we can't use tricks on Aunt Wu, right?"

"That's natural. If there are any traces of torture left on her body, we can't tell." Xue Shu said, "Why, even you can't ask?"

With a bitter face, Hong Ling said: "Girl, what the servants learned in the Hou Mansion...it was all a bunch of torture instruments smashed down on their heads and faces, and even people who were beaten by iron could not stand it, but now...the servants are really a little bit out of control. .”

What the Hou Mansion taught was how to use instruments of torture to give people the greatest pain without harming their lives, but what Xue Lu wanted now was to ask what she wanted to know without using torture.

For Hongya, this is really a bit out of line.

Xue Chen frowned slightly, and wanted to say something at first, but thinking of Xue Lu's instruction just now, he had no choice but to swallow the words in his mouth, and turned to look at Xue Shu.

"In that case, bring Aunt Wu here," Xue Shu said, raising her chin towards the open space not far away, "Let her kneel there, don't give her water or food, Kneel down for a day before talking."

Since there is no need for a sharp edge, use a soft knife to grind the meat.

"Yes." Hong Ling responded, and quickly turned around and ran back.

Xue Chen curled his lips and said, "Shu'er, just kneel? Do nothing?"

"Just kneel." Xue Shu nodded.

"Can this be useful..." Xue Chen sighed, "In my opinion, we should focus on His Highness the Third Prince now."

"Brother, what do you mean, let the third highness marry the third younger sister first?" Xue Shu looked at him with strange eyes.

Xue Chen nodded and said, "Yes, as long as we find a way to let His Highness marry the third younger sister, then all these things can be easily solved? There is no need to spend so much thought, is there?"

What he thought was very simple, for such a big scandal, the most important thing to do now is to calm the matter down, first to preserve the reputation of the female family members of the Xue family, instead of interrogating a woman in the back house.

Now that the matter has already happened, the most important thing is to settle the result first.

"Brother, do you think that my mother has suffered so much for no reason, and if she doesn't let her vent her anger, can she go and speak for the third sister?" Xue Shu poured a cup of tea and moved the cup to Xue Chen. At hand, "Brother, you should drink tea."

Xue Chen: "..."

He had just reached out to take the teacup, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Xue Yue being stopped outside the door.

Xue Shu followed his gaze and asked without getting up to salute, "Father, why are you here?"

Xue Yue sighed, and said, "How can I keep your mother busy with such a big event at home?"

Xue Shu smiled, but didn't speak.

Sometimes good intentions do not bring good results.

"How is the matter going? Did your mother tell you when she will go to the Third Highness's house?" Xue Yue didn't dare to take Xue Shu's indifference to heart, but hurriedly spoke about what he thought was a serious matter, " Shu'er, this matter is very important, no matter what, the Third Highness must settle down! After all, he is a prince, if the matter is heard by the heavens, then, then..."

Then his work for so many years was in vain!
"Father, the family is in a mess and things haven't been sorted out yet. How can you rush to the door of His Highness the Third?" Mother is back? Father, you have arms and legs yourself, why can't you go to the Third Highness's residence in person?"

He just wanted to push the embarrassing job to Xue Lushi, and he just wanted to get cheap in the back, what kind of daydream was he doing!

Xue Shu glanced at Xue Chen who was facing Xue Yue with full firepower, and pursed her lips.

No, the so-called peace of mind is also your own idea.

How could he be so ruthless that he scolded himself.

Xue Yue also looked at him, disbelief written all over his face.

Why is even Xue Chen so rude to him?

"In short, mother has her own reasons for what she does. If you are impatient, father, you can go to the Third Highness's residence by yourself." After speaking, Xue Chen shifted his eyes to other places and stopped looking at him.

Xue Yue stood at the door for a while, seeing that the brother and sister seemed really not going to talk to him anymore, so he turned around and left numbly.

He hadn't gone far when he saw Hong Ling dragging Aunt Wu who was tied up like a broken sack, walking towards her.

When Hong Ling saw him, she didn't salute, and she didn't even pause in her steps, she just dragged people and walked past him.

Xue Yue looked down and landed on Aunt Wu.

Aunt Wu's bun was already in a mess, her hair fell loose, like a lunatic, her mouth was tightly blocked by a ball of cloth, she could only scream "woo woo woo", she looked very miserable.

After all, Xue Yue had given some sincerity to Aunt Wu, and seeing her like this now, he felt uncomfortable.

"Hong Ling, Aunt Wu is the master of the family after all, how can you drag her around like this!" Xue Yue looked at Hong Ling who had no sympathy for her, and angrily said, "Hurry up and let her go!"
