Especially, these benefits should all belong to my son!
Xue Baochai was a little dumbfounded, and finally couldn't help but remind her: "Mother, don't forget that my brother is also an imperial merchant!"
As an imperial businessman, how could he mess around in the officialdom?
Aunt Xue was stunned for a moment, and then a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.
If her daughter didn't remind her, she would have forgotten that since Xue Pan was an imperial merchant, it was naturally impossible for her to enter the officialdom through formal channels.
The route he can take is actually similar to that of his ancestor Ziwei Sheren, both of whom follow the path of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In other words, if Xue Pan wanted to have an official position, it would be best to enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then give up his status as an imperial merchant to his clan members.
At this time, Aunt Xue was a little hesitant.
Being an imperial merchant represents a huge amount of money and is the foundation of the Xue family.
If you give up your status as an imperial merchant to your clan members, won’t the Xue family’s power in the shopping mall be lost to others in the future?
But if you want Xue Pan to become an official, you have to make a choice.
The problem is that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not easy to get into, and the relationships inside are complicated. The Xue family is not sure that Xue Pan can gain a firm foothold and rise rapidly.
I haven’t seen Jia Qiang, the direct descendant of the Ning Mansion, until now. Is she still only a seventh-rank official in the Ministry of Internal Affairs?
Aunt Xue felt a little depressed for a while, and felt quite empty and uncomfortable.
"Mom, whether my brother will inherit the family business or let him go to the officialdom to work hard in the future, there is still a long way to go!"
Xue Baochai looked natural and chuckled: "I think it is a good thing for my brother that my second uncle will come forward at this time!"
"How can this be a good thing? Your second uncle has a brother under his knees!"
"Don't forget, mother, that my brother is the patriarch of the Xue family. At this time, almost all of the Xue family's business in the north is in his hands!"
"So what? With your second uncle's ability, how can your brother be able to handle it?"
"Aren't there still aunts and uncles? Second uncle doesn't dare to mess around!"
"I'm so angry when you talk about your aunt and uncle. You didn't know anything about such a big thing in advance?"
"Mother, I guess you mistakenly blamed your aunt and uncle. They were definitely not the ones who helped my second uncle enter the officialdom!"
"Who else could it be besides them?"
"Ning Mansion, the second uncle must have fallen in the eyes of Jia Rong of the Ning Mansion. Only then did my daughter say that it is a good thing for the second uncle to be an official!"
Ning Mansion?
Aunt Xue's face suddenly became a little stiff.
I was indeed a little confused before. My brother Wang Ziteng was not the head of the four major families in Jinling at this time, but Jia Rong of Ning Mansion was.
For example, when it comes to allocating benefits to Uncle Xue, only Jia Rong has the say, and his brother Wang Ziteng can only have the right to make suggestions.
No wonder neither Mrs. Wang nor Wang Ziteng informed them in advance.
Now that Second Uncle Xue has come under the radar of Jia Rong of the Ning Mansion, it doesn't matter whether he has the support of his relatives or not. Jia Rong now has such ability.
It's just that Uncle Xue was able to gain the respect of Jia Rong of Ning Mansion, wasn't it because of the three of them, mother and son?
After hearing Aunt Xue's complaint, Xue Baochai was startled and said hurriedly: "Mom, please don't say that. If my second uncle hears this, he will really have a beef with us!"
"My daughter has found out that the Jinling clan has sent someone over to contact the second uncle!"
"What, there is such a thing?"
Aunt Xue was shocked. Such a thing definitely exceeded her tolerance limit.
"Mother, the Jinling clan has nothing to do with us anymore!"
Xue Baochai had no choice but to remind him again: "If my brother comes forward..."
It must have been a one-and-done affair. How could there be other endings?
Xue Baochai persuaded: "If my second uncle comes forward and contacts the Jinling clan, there may be a time when the northern and southern clans can be unified!"
"At that time, my brother's position as the clan leader will be considered complete!"
"In addition, our Xue family really needs official figures. Otherwise, if we encounter something, we go to our aunt and uncle. What will others think?"
Aunt Xue's expression instantly became obscured, as if a restraining spell had been cast on her.
If this is the case, outsiders will naturally think that the Xue family is nothing more than a vassal of the Rong family and the Wang family. Once the money in their pockets is emptied, they will lose their use value.
A family is a family, and they only form alliances based on interests, not on any kind of tenderness. Aunt Xue still knows that.
As long as Xue Pan is here, Aunt Xue will not reach that point even if she is beaten to death.
By this time, the resentment in her heart had almost dissipated, and she naturally understood her daughter's intentions.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore!"
He waved his hands and said helplessly: "It's just that your brother, when should he graduate? I feel like if he continues, he will miss more opportunities?"
Xue Baochai was also helpless. She didn't know why her mother was so confident about her brother.
It seems that as long as brother Xue Pan takes action, everything can be solved?
Don't even think about it, Xue Pan's performance in family studies is not even comparable to that of those ten-year-old boys.
Of course, she would never say this.
No matter how much her mother loves her, she still needs a scolding.
She thought about it and felt that there was really no use for her brother Xue Pan to continue studying in the Jia family.
I have all the friends I should make, and the relationship is pretty good.
As for other people, there are some things that I really can’t say, so let’s forget about it.
She smiled and said: "Mom, my daughter heard that many children trained by the Jia family school are about to rush to work in Jinmen. Why don't you let your brother follow?"
"Is this happening?"
Aunt Xue was very moved and said subconsciously: "Your uncle happens to be there. Pan'er can take care of him when he comes over!"
Xue Baochai was speechless again, wondering why her mother didn't mention it and let her brother Xue Pan mix with the children from the Jia family to get some practice?
However, she also knew that her mother had a soft temper. Since her father's death, she had always relied on her aunt and uncle for support, and she had become accustomed to it.
I don’t even think about it, what will I do in the future if my brother Xue Pan also forms a habit?
Fortunately, it's still a long time, and she and her brother are not very old, so there will still be a lot of opportunities to fight for in the future.
The mother and daughter decided on Xue Pan's future destination without even thinking of listening to the opinions of the person involved.
As for Xue Pan himself, when he heard that he could leave the Jia family and learn from that big prison, he naturally wanted to do it as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wang was quite capable and easily added Xue Pan's name to the ethnic studies students rushing to Jinmen without causing any disturbance at all.
As for why she is so active, apart from Aunt Xue throwing away money as usual, she also has some other thoughts...
