4.41 Being able to enter the Zhou family is your greatest luck
Ever since Xue Pan was injured and imprisoned by Zhou Yang, the atmosphere in the entire Xue family's house had become very depressing. Every servant and maidservant who saw him turned pale with fright and knelt down to salute; interestingly, after that, he also The mistress of the Xue family was never seen again. Xue Baochai did not ask or come to plead for mercy. Even Wang Shuying, who was completely fed by him that day, did not show up again. She was obviously dissatisfied.

"Brother Zhou, we can't go on like this." Two full days later, in the courtyard of the guest room, Zhao Qiying persuaded worriedly, "After all, the Xue family is here, and we are outsiders. Although they don't say it, I'm afraid they will blame you in their hearts. Overbearing; should we take the initiative to contact Mrs. Xue or the Xue family sister to alleviate the situation? "

"Huh——" Although he kept scolding "long hair and short knowledge" in his heart, Zhou Yang also knew that he could not go on like this. Otherwise, the small crack might really grow into a cliff. Fortunately, he was also prepared, "Don't worry, I Yesterday, someone was sent to the Zhen family. They paid money in the name of the Xue family's second room and applied for the right to use the Xuanwu Lake Royal Garden. They will go there today to visit.

The main purpose this time is to bring Baochai over, explain it clearly and let her calm down, so we can't bring too many people. Qiying, you come with me, Yan Ling and Qing Yatou stay at home; and , I have just arranged for people to prepare carriages and horses, and now I will go to the back house to call for people. Yan Ling, don’t forget to inform the Li brothers and ask them to be careful with the people. "

"Brother-in-law, you mean someone in the Xue family will cause trouble?" Zhao Yanling asked worriedly.

"My wife and sister Bao definitely won't. They can tell the difference, just in case." Zhou Yang said lightly, "Okay, the carriage and horse are here. Qiying, take them outside the inner house and wait. I went inside and asked Sister Bao to come out."

"Brother Zhou, Sister Bao is very ambitious. What if she doesn't agree?" Zhao Qiying said worriedly.

"Don't worry, she won't." Zhou Yang smiled and nodded to her, turned around and walked out of the room.

The Xue family's old house was not big, and without half a stick of incense, he entered the inner house, Xue Baochai's courtyard. The whole journey was completely smooth, and no one blocked him. When he entered the door, he saw Xue Baochai and Ying'er sitting on the edge of the bed doing needlework together. They had not forgotten something. Let’s chat for a while.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhou?" Seeing him coming in, Xue Baochai just made a move, and then continued to be a female celebrity as if nothing had happened, but Ying'er was not so good-tempered, "This slave didn't see it, it's really disappointing, Mr. Wanwang Forgive me, but don’t get angry. If you beat me to death, you can only blame me for your suffering!"

"Ying'er, you go out first!" Zhou Yang glared at her and glared back fiercely.

"The maidservant has been with our girl since she was a child, so she won't bother—oh!" Ying'er wanted to say a few more words, but she couldn't prevent Zhou Yang from stepping forward, hugging her horizontally, going straight out and placing her in the courtyard, and before she could react Close the door and forget to bolt it.

"What do you want to do, Mr. Zhou? But you want to beat up and imprison the little girl together?" Seeing that there was no obstacle between the two of them, Xue Baochai forced himself to stare with beautiful eyes. He originally expected to scare someone, but he didn't want her. As soon as she finished speaking, she was hugged horizontally. She was so frightened that she struggled hurriedly, "Let go, I still have a needle in my hand. If you don't let go, I will prick you!"

"Fool, you really don't understand why I hit people that day?" Zhou Yang gently played with the girl's catkins and said with a bitter smile, "Your elder brother is like this. If you let him be like this, the Xue family will be worth hundreds of millions in the future. I'm afraid it won't be corrupt enough." ; besides, I didn’t really do anything to him, I just locked him up so he could wake up.

Apart from anything else, what are the names your elder brother mentioned that day?If you just made a little inquiry in the past two days, I'm afraid you already understand it, right?What's the use of hanging out with them other than learning from them? "

There is another thing he did not say clearly, that is, Xue Pan must not be allowed to play around outside. It doesn't matter whether he is good or bad. The key is his IQ. He may be plotted by others at some point. Zhou Yang can control the Xue family in name only. It was Dai Xue Pan and Wang Shuying who were in charge.

In case something happens to Xue Pan, for example, in the original book, he was turned into a "living dead" by Jia Yucun because he snatched Xiangling, and he even died in the end. According to the clan rules, other houses can confidently come to divide up the property of the big house. Zhou Yang Even the son-in-law of the Xue family is unreasonable in this regard. Without the support of Xue Zihao, how can he get millions more money?
"I know what Brother Zhou means, but what do the servants in the house know? I'm afraid they will think that Brother Zhou is abusing my brother." Xue Baochai said helplessly, "One more thing, once these are spread, outsiders will What do you think of him? You also said that he will take over the family's property in the future. With your scolding, how can he have any prestige in front of outsiders in the future? "

"Although it's hard to say it, I still have to say, he has prestige now? Not to mention that he left the Xue family, but in this courtyard, does he have any prestige?" Zhou Yang said in one sentence Xue Baochai was silent, "If he can't stand up, what will happen no matter how much wealth the Xue family has?

Don't forget, the Xue family in Jinling doesn't only have two people, will the others wait honestly?Also, I did go overboard with what I did the day before yesterday, but you should understand what I mean, right?If we delay it any longer, what if someone in the other houses takes the opportunity to cause trouble, saying that I am the heir to the Xue family who was cruel to me, trying to seize the property of my in-law family, and want to drive me away? "

There are now only three people left in the Xue family's main house, two women living in the house, and one useless person who can't stand up. Once Zhou Yang's support is no longer supported, the second house of the Xue family will also be separated in name, and they will immediately become the most important person in the family. The fragrant meat on the chopping board soon became like the original work. Within a few years, because he could no longer support it, he had to go to Beijing to seek refuge with Jia's family. "So, Brother Zhou has decided to visit Xuanwu Lake and wants to take the opportunity to shut up some people?" Report it to mother; since you deliberately asked them to go out and make arrangements, you thought you should have told them in advance?"

"You understand, what else do I have to say?" Zhou Yang smiled, hugged his girl and walked out of the room, "The carriages and horses are waiting outside the inner house, how about we go and relax now?"

"You are all." Xue Baochai's cheeks turned red in embarrassment, and he lightly punched someone a few times, obviously dissatisfied with his dominance. "Now, what can I say, little sister? I'm just letting you bully me!"

"Girl!" When Ying'er saw the two of them going out, she hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, not forgetting to give someone a hard roll of her eyes, "Miss Zhao is already."

"Okay, bring the things I asked you to pack yesterday. The weather is nice today. It's time to go to Xuanwu Lake to relax." , just say I won’t be back for lunch.”

The carriages and horses are very simple. There are two two-wheeled carriages. One is more luxurious and is for Xue Baochai and Ying'er. The other is more ordinary looking, so it is naturally for Zhao Qiying. Then there are two coachmen and Zhou Yang riding his own horse. , in the true sense of "light carriage and simple obedience", naturally in order to create as much private time as possible, even the people led by the Li brothers only followed from afar.

Moreover, this time Zhou Yang deliberately arranged the tour according to the last route. As soon as he entered the garden, he arranged for two coachmen to drive a carriage to find a place to wait near the entrance. He drove another car and took three people with him. The girl continued to tour.

"Okay, there are no outsiders here, let's all come down and take a walk!" After taking a few turns to stay away from the open line of sight, Zhou Yang opened the car door with a smile, and without waiting for Xue Baochai's consent, he took her out of the car and put her down, "Such a beautiful scenery, It’s better to visit it yourself.”

"Brother Zhou, how can you be such a bully?" Even if Xue Baochai had any objections, she could only say something with a blushing cheek. She had no choice but to let him hold his hand, and the two of them traveled side by side, just because she was less than 1.7 in height. meters, which was a bit worse than Zhou Yang who was eight feet away, so that Zhou Yang had to slow down to let the girl keep up.

It was the end of August at this time, as the so-called "autumn is high and refreshing", it refers to the current time period. The gardens in the south of the Yangtze River do not have the yellow leaves and bleakness of the north, but they also add a bit of autumn, which is already a bit cool. A strong breeze swept through the forest, causing the pleasant person next to him to frown slightly, obviously feeling slightly uncomfortable.

"You, you are walking too slowly. There are no outsiders today. You might as well let me indulge." Zhou Yang smiled, looked around a few times, and saw Ying'er, who was slowly pulling away, pouting. Zui'er, and the sweaty horse held in Zhao Nuxia's hands, he simply went back and flew onto the horse, turned the horse's head and ran to Xue Baochai's side, leaning forward and making a "please" gesture.

"This -" Sister Bao obviously couldn't adapt, her expression was very complicated.

"My good sister, you have forgotten the historical records that the ladies from famous families in the prosperous Han and Tang Dynasties were not trapped in the inner house and only chatted with women." Seeing her hesitation, Zhou Yang simply jumped off the horse, picked her up and put her away. On the saddle, he sat on the cushion behind the saddle, "I'll let you experience it today - driving!"

The sweaty horse neighed, spread its hooves and ran forward along the avenue, causing the beautiful woman in his arms to exclaim, but Zhou Yang just laughed and let go of the speed and ran all the way. There were days when he was not as good as he is today. So arbitrary.

"Miss Zhao, how is this possible?" Ying'er looked stupidly at the two people who had only their backs left, and said in disbelief to the only family member beside her, "Don't women in the boudoir should never leave the front door or step out of the second door? ? But the girl and Uncle Zhou?"

"Fool, why can't you?" Zhao Qiying couldn't help but laugh, "Brother Zhou is not one of those rotten literati. He keeps an eye on his own house every day and only dares to show his authority on the female family members; you will also follow in the future. Sooner or later, you girls who are just starting out will understand that it is your greatest luck to be able to enter the Zhou family in this life!"

Ying'er stopped talking and just looked at the figure that was about to disappear. She didn't know what she was thinking, but her expression gradually became crazy.
