Although Xue Baochai has more ideas than Xue Wang and Xue Pan, and was raised by the head of the Xue family as a son since childhood, but after all, she is a little girl who has never been out of the house. Even if she has ideas, how can she be so powerful?Thinking about it, Xue Baochai heard that Princess Chang Rui was going to have a banquet again, and for some reason, she remembered her meeting with Princess Chang Rui and Princess Lin Daiyu, so she begged Xue Wang to give money to the Zhen family, and opened up the joint , got a post about the princess banquet.

Although Wang Zhen looked down on Wang Xue, the Xue family still had millions of dollars. She and Wang Xue were both from the Wang family, and they could get a lot of private money with just a little effort. Why not?

It's a pity that Xue Baochai's poem about peonies didn't attract the princess' attention, and she didn't have a chance to chat with Lin Daiyu, so she had to return without success.

It's just that I didn't expect that not only did I not get any benefits from going to the banquet this time, but it aroused people's jealousy and almost caused a catastrophe.

As I said before, when Xue Baochai was at the banquet, because of his ancestral virtue and his status as an imperial merchant, he was more noble than the Li sisters who were born as salt merchants, and his rank was also higher.And Xue Baochai is more human than the Li sisters. Although she didn't talk to the high-ranking lady at the banquet, some daughters of small officials who also came through their relatives were willing to talk to her.Some officials' wives were also very kind to Xue Baochai, and praised her a few words.In contrast, the Li sisters were too neglected.

The Li sisters were also spoiled and spoiled at home since they were young, and they usually met some officials and ladies, and they were polite to them, but have they ever received such a cold reception?If other people here can't compare, but the daughter of the Xue family who is already half dead, is it possible that they can't compare?They naturally channeled their anger at Xue Baochai for being left out at the banquet.

Originally, if Xue Baochai would have returned to Jinling like this, even if the two of them vented their anger, it would be impossible to trouble Xue Baochai.But the problem is that Zhen Wang was invited to celebrate the Li family's birthday, and Xue Baochai wanted to stay in Jiangnan to look for opportunities. Zhen Wang didn't bring the unsightly concubine, so she simply brought Xue Baochai.The Li family and the Xue family have always had a good relationship. Although the Xue family's hostess and hostess fell ill, they still had gifts. Xue Baochai took the Xue family's birthday gifts and moved into the Li family.

The Li family was used to being arrogant, and when the Xue family was still prosperous, they might still have some respect for Xue Baochai.But the Xue family is almost on the verge of collapse now, and some lecherous people are eyeing Xue Baochai's color.The Li sisters hated Xue Baochai very much, thinking that Xue Baochai would be relieved if she became her brother's concubine, so she begged her mother to keep Xue Baochai to match her up.Although the Li family said they looked down on the Xue family that was about to decline, they were still very excited about the Xue family's money, thinking that Xue Baochai could still be an aunt.Zhen Wang returned home soon, and Xue Baochai was invited to stay for a while.

And Xue Baochai is not a submissive woman. When the eldest son of the Li family took advantage of the opportunity to make a move, Xue Baochai would naturally resist and accidentally hurt the lifeblood of the eldest son of the Li family. The doctor said that the eldest son of the Li family might have no hope of heirs.

Now Xue Baochai has stabbed a hornet's nest.Before being sold to the brothel, she had been locked up in the firewood shed for three days. Fortunately, she was usually popular and hid some scraps of money close to her body. A servant girl took pity on her and asked her to use the scraps of silver in exchange for some food.

The wife of the Li family hated Xue Baochai deeply, and at the instigation of the Li sisters, she decided to sell Xue Baochai into the fireworks land, and told the Xue family that Xue Baochai had fallen into the water.The Li salt merchant wanted to give some more money to the governor of Jinling Mansion, and beheaded Xue Pan as soon as possible, then the Xue family would be completely ruined, and then he could bite a large piece of meat.

Originally, the Li family wanted to force Xue Baochai to marry their son who may have no heirs, and then kill Xue Pan. In this way, Xue Baochai will be an extinct daughter, and all the Xue family's money will belong to the Li family.But Mrs. Li felt that it was cheaper for Xue Baochai to marry her son.Anyway, looking at the eyes of the Xue family's family, Xue Baochai will definitely not let Xue Baochai take away all the money. There are so many sons in the side branches of the Xue family. It's not stupid, it's impossible for Xue Baochai to give all the property of the Xue family to the Li family.

After Xue Baochai heard the news, she felt that the sky was falling.But she was still calm, and quietly exchanged the last silver for a pair of small scissors, and pretended to be hungry and fainted to confuse the people in the Li family, and finally took advantage of the little gangster to negotiate the price with the old bustard of the brothel, leaving only one guard At that time, he found an opportunity to stab the guard, escaped, was recognized by Lin Daiyu, and fled the fire cave.

Shui Jue leaned on the imperial concubine's couch, looked at Xue Baochai, who was weeping and paralyzed on the ground, and said indifferently: "Pay debts, pay with murder. It's not that your brother killed someone once or twice, but it was just settled with money. Now that you can't settle the situation with money, it's only natural to plead guilty. You don't have to take chances."

Xue Baochai fell on the ground and choked with sobs.Why doesn't she know that her brother deserves what he deserves, but this is her brother, the only hope of the Xue family, what else can she do?

"By the way, the news that the daughter of the Xue family has fallen into the water has already spread, and the Xue family is already in Zhang Luo Lingtang." Shui Jue looked at Xue Baochai who was dumbfounded for a moment, "If you want to go home, you have to do it as soon as possible."

"I can't go back... I can't go back..." Xue Baochai trembled slightly, and said to himself, "I can't go back..."

How is she going back?Even if the princess was willing to lie for her with good intentions, saying that she was rescued from the lake, how could the Li family give up?Xue's family was left with nothing but an empty shelf, and his elder brother was hopeless.If she was still alive, the Li family would definitely retaliate against her like crazy. By then, both herself and the Xue family would be worse than now.

Now the Li family is still unwilling to spread the story of Mr. Li to everyone, so they still have some concerns in their actions, and they just wait for the Xue family to bite a piece of meat after they get into chaos.

What's more, the family is already in that state now, and I can't protect myself.My mother is an uninitiated person, and my father is seriously ill in bed. Hearing that I have offended the Li family, what can I do?At best, send yourself far away.

As for the Zhen family... Xue Baochai thought that before Zhen Wang's departure, she would act like a matchmaker for herself and Mr. Li, and also wanted to ask her to help save her brother. Home is nothing to count on.

Seeing that Xue Baochai had fallen into despair, Shui Jue suddenly felt bored.I thought she was a capable little girl, but if she calmed down and exchanged some benefits that would make her feel excited, maybe she would intervene.The Li family has also been arrogant for too long, she has long disliked the Li family.

"Princess..." Lin Daiyu has been with Shui Jue for so long, of course she is confused about Shui Jue's thoughts.She saw that since Shui Jue was willing to take the time to meet Xue Baochai and listened to her cry for so long, it was obvious that she might intervene in this matter, it just depended on Xue Baochai's sincerity.Although Lin Daiyu had only met Xue Baochai twice, for some reason, she had a good impression of Xue Baochai. Seeing that Shui Jue was getting impatient, she hurriedly smoothed things over, "Sister Xue is also tired. I talked to her and persuaded her." .”

"Then you can persuade me." Shui Jue covered his mouth with his sleeve and yawned, Ziyun hurriedly reached out to help Shui Jue up, "I'm going to rest first."

After saluting and sending Shui Jue away, Lin Daiyu helped Xue Baochai up: "Sister Xue, wipe your face and stop crying. Although your brother can't be rescued, you are still in the Xue family? It's not hopeless."

Xue Baochai is such a smart person.She couldn't believe that it was Prince Zhongshun who rescued herself—she had never had any contact with Prince Zhongshun.The only person who might have an impression of her is Lin Daiyu.Although she didn't know why Lin Daiyu appeared in such a place, she had long realized the essence of pretending to be stupid, and she just pretended not to know.For Lin Daiyu, she can only feel grateful from the bottom of her heart.Now that Lin Daiyu persuaded her, she couldn't help but speak the truth.

"I'm just a woman. I can't carry on the Xue family's lineage, nor can I extend the Xue family. I hate that I am not a man. If I were a man, why would I not be able to support the family business?" Xue Baochai is proud of herself, He also has the ambition to be as good as a man.She boasted that if she could take charge of the family business, she would definitely bring the Xue family to a higher level.But she happened to be a daughter.

Lin Daiyu hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "What's the matter with my daughter? You don't have to show your face in this business matter. You can choose someone you trust to do things in front of you. Your daughter can also hold the power and make a career. Besides, It is not that difficult to carry on the family line. The blood of the adopted offspring is also passed on to the lineage, and the daughter's child is also passed on to the lineage with the mother's surname. How can you be desperate?"

After Lin Daiyu finished speaking, she smiled embarrassedly: "So sister Xue should take a good rest. There is always a way, and there will always be a way. Many Zhuangzi under the name of the princess are in charge of female stewards. Women's property, or Don’t worry about giving it to women, isn’t it? Only women know what women like about those rouge and gouache. Oh, I’m full of copper stench when I talk about it. I must have read too much of the account book for the princess. "

Xue Baochai let Lin Daiyu send her back to the temporary guest room in a daze.She sat on the edge of the bed, silent for a long time, suddenly her eyes lit up as if seeing the sun through the clouds.

..................................

"What did you tell her? Why did you realize it all of a sudden?" The next day, Shui Jue agreed to Xue Baochai's request to see her, and after chatting for a stick of incense, he was satisfied and sent someone to secretly escort Xue Baochai back to Jinling.

Lin Daiyu pinched the sunspot and worried, and replied: "It's nothing, it's just that the daughter can also be in charge of the property, whether it's adoption or letting the children follow their own surnames is all right."

"That's all." Shui Jue lightly swallowed Lin Daiyu's black spots, and said with a chuckle, "Didn't you mention it?"

"Hmm... And what's more, the princess's Zhuangzi is also in charge of the female steward." Lin Daiyu smiled flatteringly, and blinked slyly, "I won!"

"It's good to put it to death and come back to life. It's not bad, it's getting better and better." Shui Jue didn't care if she lost, she just played casually without any thought.Seeing that Lin Daiyu had won, she threw the white pieces in her hand into the jar, "We'll have a good show next time, I should go back to Beijing."
