Xue Pan thought about what those two people said, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it became. What the Jia family needs now is money, so why should they pretend to be the uncle in front of him?
When Xue Pan went back and talked about it, Aunt Xue also thought it made sense. But even if it made sense, the Xue family couldn't get off the boat.
"Mom, why are you still so stubborn? The Jia family is begging our family now. If Jia Baoyu wants to marry his sister, he must show his sincerity. It is better than letting my sister follow Jia Baoyu in a unclear way."
Xue Baochai blushed with anger and shed tears. She was not satisfied with the current situation.
Aunt Xue cried and shouted: "You don't care about anything, you only know how to bully your sister."
Xue Pan said: "Why did I bully my sister? You are thinking of marrying Jia Baoyu. Isn't the method I said wrong?"
Aunt Xue held back her tears and hesitated to speak.
Xue Baochai also noticed something was wrong and asked: "Mom, how much money did you give to your aunt?"
Aunt Xue couldn't hide it when her two children asked her, so she said, "It's almost 800,000 taels of silver now."
Xue Pan was unhappy and shouted: "You have been saying that I am a prodigal all day long, but you are more powerful than me."
Aunt Xue was no longer happy and cried: "Who am I doing this for? It's not for you. Don't forget, your aunt was the one who made the most of your problem back then."
Xue Pan said unconvinced: "That incident at the beginning was not for my uncle's sake, so what does it have to do with my aunt."
This is a bit of a strong statement, but it is also true. Without Wang Ziteng's face, who would betray Jia Zheng's face?
"I gave you 800,000 taels of silver. This can help you repay the Jia family's favor. You are very generous. Others are still mocking our family as fools behind our backs. From what I say, if you want to borrow money again, that's fine. Or
Formalize the engagement between my sister and Baoyu and tell my four friends in exchange for Geng letters; or ask my aunt to write an IOU and return the money."
Aunt Xue still couldn't bear to look like this and said: "We are all relatives, how could this happen? If your uncle knew about it, how should he explain it?"
"Baoyu is my uncle's nephew, and I am also my uncle's nephew. If we don't have nephews, we have to separate them. Even if we sue my uncle, so what, anyway, it's not that our family doesn't care."
Xue Baochai didn't help Aunt Xue this time. After thinking about it carefully, Xue Pan was actually right. Mrs. Wang's method of dealing with the Lin family may not be used on the Xue family.
With no IOU and no formal engagement, the Xue family had no insurance at all.
Xue Baochai doesn't care about so much wealth. What she wants is an opportunity. As long as she has the opportunity, she is confident that she can earn more money with her own ability.
Jia Baoyu is Xue Baochai's only choice at the moment. Even if he doesn't want to study, Xue Baochai can only accept it.
But if this idea fails again, there will be nothing left.
Now the Jia family's garden is at a critical stage, and the Xue family still has room for negotiation with the Jia family. Once the garden is built, what else can the Xue family do to force the Jia family to pay back the money?
"Mom, I think what my brother said is right. If my daughter is not shy, the emperor can't even marry a princess with a dowry of 800,000 taels. The garden at my aunt's house has not been completed yet, and a lot of money will be needed in the future.
.You should always leave some for your brother."
At this time, Aunt Xue had nothing to say. Compared with her daughter, her son was the most important. Originally, she was waiting for Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai to get married so that the Xue family's money could be lost. Now that she said this, even her marriage was not guaranteed.
, let alone silver.
After constant persuasion, Aunt Xue also made up her mind to go to Mrs. Wang for a showdown.
How could Mrs. Wang agree?
In the entire Jia family, only Jia Baoyu is the empress's biological brother and has the most noble status. Xue Baochai is good, but there are many girls better than Xue Baochai in the world.
Mrs. Wang wants to be like Jia Mu and enjoy the treatment of the old feudal lord in the future. It is impossible to count on Jia Zheng. The only hope is her children.
The daughter has become a queen, and now she is waiting for Jia Baoyu to come of age, become the next Duke of the Kingdom, and earn her a super-class title.
No matter how many fantasies and unwillingness Mrs. Wang has, there is nothing she can do. Who makes the Jia family short of money?
So, she said: "I don't want this marriage, but the old lady really can't go against it. What my sister said makes sense. I'll go discuss it with the old lady and get back to you in a few days. What do you think?
?”
After all, they were biological sisters, and Aunt Xue didn't want to cause an ugly scene, so she had no choice but to agree.
Mrs. Wang also wanted to take the opportunity to ask for some money, but Aunt Xue said: "Pan'er, that worthless thing, is getting angry with me at home. Without his seal, I really can't get money from home."
Mrs. Wang knew that this was a lie, but she did not expose it. She could only go to Jia Mu to discuss it first.
Jia Mu sat there with a gloomy face, so scared that Mrs. Wang did not dare to speak.
"Zheng's daughter-in-law, there are only two options now. One is to agree to the Xue family's request and ruin Baoyu's life. The other is to do what I said and marry the Lin family. Not only is the Lin family rich, but Lin's son-in-law can also support him in the officialdom.
Baoyu."
After all, Jia Mu still hasn't given up on the Lin family.
Mrs. Wang did not respond immediately and sat there thinking.
My daughter needs to be married, and the garden has already been built like this. It must not be stopped. If she hears about the villa, the empress will become a joke, and there will be no future.
Then we can only sacrifice Baoyu.
Comparatively, apart from money, the Xue family is just a Xue Pan who causes trouble everywhere. If he doesn't cause trouble for Baoyu, then Amitabha will be the best.
Although the Lin family only has one daughter left, Lin Ruhai has a high official position and is of great help to Baoyu.
"Daughter-in-law, listen to the old lady."
Now that Mrs. Wang had bowed her head, Jia Mu no longer pursued her past mistakes.
Jia Mu said cheerfully: "For the sake of Baoyu, I will give up this old face and go and beg Lin's son-in-law."
What Jia Mu said was begging, but in fact, she felt in her heart that there was no problem at all. There is no better person in the world than Baoyu, and Lin Ruhai is also a prostitute, so she still has this point of view.
The current quarrel between the Xue family and the Jia family actually affected King Zhongshun first. The Xue family cut off the Jia family's money, and his income dropped sharply. The people below soon noticed it and reported him
.
Fortunately, the Jia family has no secrets, and the people below quickly found out the context of the matter.
King Zhongshun came directly to the door.
"My lord, you should go find Mr. Lin. If you find me, you are a bit unreasonable."
King Zhongshun said: "Although Lin Ruhai did this, you dare to say it was not your idea."
Can this be found out?
"What evidence do you have?"
"You still need evidence? Lin Ruhai would never have come up with such a damaging idea. He has a good relationship with you. Apart from you, I can't think of anyone else who could come up with this idea."
Wang Tingxuan looked at the proud King Zhongshun with a dark face, I have helped you so much, and this is how you look at me?
Regardless of Wang Tingxuan's expression, King Zhongshun continued: "I have already sent someone to call Lin Ruhai. When he comes, you won't be able to hide it."
Wang Tingxuan didn't want to hide it, and asked: "What are you doing with Lin Ruhai? That idea does not conflict with your plan. If Jia Xue marries, wouldn't it be more beneficial to your plan to make money?"
"Isn't it because Lin Ruhai suddenly took action to take revenge on the Jia family?"
Forget it, this involved Lin Ruhai's family affairs, Wang Tingxuan couldn't say anything, he might as well wait until Lin Ruhai came over.
