Baochai is a mermaid

At the beginning of April, Xing Xiuyan successfully gave birth to a boy. Considering that Xue Pan was captured and Xue's mother was in poor spirits, Xue Biao didn't plan to make a big deal of it. He only wrote a letter to Jinling to announce the good news and sent it to several relatives in the capital. Xiner.

Unexpectedly, on the day before the full moon, the second master of the Xue family came over with his second wife. Although the journey was tiring, both of them were in good spirits.

Seeing Xue's mother, the second master turned around and bowed. Xue's mother was startled, but she couldn't help herself, so she hurriedly motioned for Xue Biao, but Xue Biao also knelt down.

Hearing him say: "If there is no auntie, the second room would not be where it is today."

As he said that, Xue Biao helped the second master up, knelt down again and kowtowed three times to Mother Xue.

Xue's mother wet her eyes, she helped Xue Biao herself, and then glanced at Xue Baoqin who was wiping tears in the second wife's arms, and said: "We are all a family, so what are you talking about? When the old master passed away, the third and fourth households persecuted her. Dafang, if it wasn’t for the help of the second younger brother and younger siblings, how could Dafang be where he is today.”

The second master shook his head with tears in his eyes. It was because they were the first to receive the favor of the big house. The two children lived and ate for free in the family for several years, and every month there was a monthly allowance of money brought back to subsidize the family.

When Xue Biao got married, he only took out 1000 taels of silver, which Xue Biao earned to subsidize his family.But the second wife heard from the matchmaker that the Xue family’s dowry was as much as 1000 taels of silver. corresponding dowry.

The extra 9000 taels of silver, no need to think about it, was taken by the long house.

There is also Xue Baoqin's marriage, the more the second master thinks about it, the more afraid he becomes.

The Mei family regretted their marriage first, and he wanted to bear it, pretending that he didn't know the family, but the Mei family came to pester him again, wanting his second son to marry Baoqin.

Back then, Mei Hanlin was still a poor scholar, Shu Xiu and living expenses all depended on the second master, a classmate, to help him. Mei Hanlin's eldest son was born in Xue's family, and the second master also took his name.

Mei Hanlin said that the child had a relationship with the second master, and also said that if the second wife gave birth to a son, they would make the two brothers of the opposite sex and support each other in the future.If you give birth to a daughter, don't dislike their poor family, you must get married.

The second master only listened to polite words, but who knew that when Xue Baoqin was on the full moon, Mei Hanlin, who had already passed the exam, really invited a matchmaker to come to propose marriage, but Xue Baoqin was only full moon, and the second master did not confiscate their family's dowry, but only made a verbal agreement.

Later, Mei Hanlin became a Jinshi and became an official, so the two families moved less, and only gave gifts during the New Year and holidays.

Until two years ago, the Xue family gave the Mei family a New Year gift, but the Mei family did not return the gift.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Pan made a fuss about the division of the clan and wrote a letter to ask Xue Biao to help him. The second master told him to visit the Mei Mansion to see what was going on, but in the end he waited for the news that the Mei family had married another man.

The second master was furious, and wanted to go to the capital to ask Mei Hanlin what he said back then and how he did it now.

But Mei Hanlin is no longer the poor scholar of the past, the Mei family has also become the Mei family, and the second house of the Xue family is still the same, if it is not for the long house to take care of Xue Tiao, it may not be as good as before.

Time has passed, and after all, he is useless and has delayed his children for nothing.

After several months of this, when the second master finally calmed down and accepted his fate, Mei Hanlin suddenly wrote a letter in his own hand, sincerely apologizing to him, and said a lot of high-sounding reasons, and finally proposed to let the second son Marry Xue Baoqin to fulfill the agreement of the year.

So the second master became even more angry, how can one daughter have two promises, if she can't marry the first son, she can also marry the second son, really the daughter of the Xue family can't marry?

One must know that Xue Bao'er is married to the son of An Guogong, the present Jianguo, the future emperor, and the queen's life is certain.As her cousin Xue Baoqin, it's fine if she can't add color, but she can't add trouble.

In the past, for Xue Baoqin's future, the second master might still think about it, but now he is only full of anger.

He also personally wrote a reply letter to Mei Hanlin, sternly refusing.

Unexpectedly, the letter was dropped by someone.

It wasn't until he received Xue Biao's letter, which also included another letter signed by Xue Jiao, that the second master knew that the daring concubine at home actually asked the Mei family for a deposit of 1000 taels of silver behind his back, and planned to do it like this He sold his eldest daughter.

No more, no less 1000 taels of silver, just to make up for the shortfall when Xue Biao married his wife.

He confronted the concubine's room, but the concubine's room actually said something brazenly. She didn't want to sell Xue Baoqin, but hated the Mei family for being ungrateful and wanted to blackmail their family for some money.

I didn't have much hope at all, how could I know that the Mei family was so sincere, and they sent someone to send the silver just because of a letter from Xue Jiao.

He also said to persuade the second master to think again.

The second master asked her to return the money, and the concubine's house started arguing with him, saying that all the money in the family was used for Xue Biao's marriage, and he wanted to prepare a dowry for Xue Baoqin. What will Xue Jiao do in the future?

Then he began to criticize the second master for his incompetence, failure to pass the examination, and failure to do business.

The second master didn't compromise this time, and asked people to put the concubine's room on the ground for interrogation, only then did he know that Xue Jiao went to the casino with the third and fourth roommates to owe gambling debts, and the 1000 taels of silver had already been paid off debt.

The second master was so angry that he beat the concubine to death with his own family law. He wanted to beat Xue Jiao, but Xue Jiao beat him up.If it wasn't for the house watchman from the big house who heard the movement and rushed over, the second master might have been beaten to death by the concubine.

The family couldn't stay anymore, the second master and the second wife discussed it, and simply went to the capital to join Xue Biao.

They set off without receiving the letter of good news, and they didn't know until they arrived in the capital that Xing Xiuyan had given birth to a fat grandson for them.

Something happened to Xue Pan, and the long house was still in chaos. Xue Biao wanted to buy another house for his parents to live in. He had also made some money over the years, so buying a house in the capital would not be a problem.

Just need a little time.

Xue's mother said that there was no rush, and let him choose slowly, and he must choose the one he liked, so she personally chose a yard with an open door for the second master and second wife of the Xue family to live in.

I don't know how the Mei family got the news and sent someone to ask for money, but the second master couldn't get it out, and it was Xue Biao who filled the hole.

Seeing that Xue Baoqin had also reached the age to talk about marriage, Xue's mother was a widow and it was inconvenient to come forward, so she had to ask Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing for help.

It stands to reason that with Xue Baoer's relationship, plus Xue Biao's reputation in the capital, Xue Baoqin was born like a flower and jade, and has a well-behaved personality. How could it be so difficult to marry?

After careful inquiring, I found out that it was the Mei family who were spreading rumors, saying that the eldest daughter of the Xue family's second bedroom had long been engaged to the second master of his family, and now that the Xue family has become bigger, they are going to regret the marriage.

"I only said that the Mei family was ungrateful, but I can't imagine that they are so shameless!" Mrs. Xing was furious, "Repent the marriage first, and spread rumors later. If you don't get it, you will destroy it!"

Mrs. Wang was also very angry: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it's the woman who suffers. Fortunately, the Shizi Concubine took back the letter with a clear mind, otherwise it would be impossible to argue."

As he spoke, he looked at Xue's mother: "I'm afraid that Baoqin's discussion of relatives will be delayed for a while."

Mother Xue nodded, that's all she could do.

When Xue Baoer came home, Mother Xue told her about it, complained angrily, and then began to sigh again.

Xue Bao'er couldn't stand Mother Xue's sigh the most, and turned her eyes to Mother Xue's ear and said a few words, Mother Xue held her breath in her throat, and then sucked back: "This, can this work?"

Xue Baoer winked at her: "You'll know if you try it."

Before the Dragon Boat Festival, the Yu family held a flower viewing banquet. After the flower viewing banquet was over, rumors spread that the reason why the third daughter of the Yu family reconciled with the uncle of the Mei family was because the uncle of the Mei family had a hidden disease. The secret recipe in the palace just conceived a child, but she had a miscarriage within three months.

"Really or not? I heard that the two families had a very unpleasant quarrel when they were separated. It couldn't be a rumor deliberately made by the Yu family."

"I don't know if it's true or not. Anyway, Yu's business is spreading rumors that during the flower viewing feast, a mother in charge of Yu's family accidentally made a slip of the tongue..."

"Uncle Mei is suffering from a serious illness, what good will it do for my aunt who has returned home? It's probably true!"

So the hidden disease has become a serious disease.

The uncle is suffering from a serious disease, will the second master also...

Thinking of the Xue family regretting their marriage for no reason, everyone was stunned.

No wonder.

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and the parties are often the last to know.

It was only when Mrs. Mei was expelled from the aristocratic circle of the capital, and no one invited her to various gatherings, that Mrs. Mei heard about this rumor. She was so angry that she couldn't eat or sleep well for several days, and her mouth started to burn. Bubbles, eating and speaking are all problems.

Da Lang and Li are still discussing marriage just now, Er Lang has also reached the age of engagement, and several concubines' children are also getting married. At this juncture, such rumors spread, how can she live?

The power of rumors is that they cannot be proven. She can't rush to the street to explain to people one by one. The only thing she can do is to wait until new rumors come out to replace these rumors.

At the beginning, she was well versed in this way, so she deliberately released the words, saying that Erlang had long been engaged to Xue Baoqin, and wanted to force the Xue family to compromise.

In the end, before the Xue family compromised, the Yu family's revenge came first.

She had inquired about it, and the rumors spread from Yu's family's flower viewing feast, and from Yu's family's business, it was the most naked revenge.

But the Yu family is a foreign relative after all, and Concubine Shu gave birth to Princess Jingxian, which is not something the Mei family can afford to provoke.

If you can't afford it, you can only endure it.

Tolerance is not so easy to bear.

The more wealthy the family, the more they care about the reputation, because there are so many choices, and even a little trouble may come to naught, let alone rumors of a serious illness.

It was passed down from his ex-wife's family.

Ruomei's family is a rich family like the Duke of An's, not to mention suffering from a serious disease, even if they are about to die of illness, there are many people who want to stuff their daughter in there to celebrate.

But the Mei family is not. The Mei family is weak and cannot afford it at all.

This kind of influence may not be digested within a few years. After a few more years, Da Lang will only be able to marry a daughter from a small family.

The Mei family is completely over!

Just when Mrs. Mei's blisters grew and grew, and she was struggling to drink water, a little maid ran in to announce the good news: "Madam, the second master has won! He won No.7 in the second class!"

Mrs. Mei sat up startled in her dying illness, and as if she remembered something, she rolled her eyes and passed out.
