In the room, the atmosphere was a little cold.

After a while, Mrs. Xue sighed, she didn't ask her husband if he had contacted her natal family.The Xue family can make a decision on this kind of thing, there is no need to ask her mother's reason.After she gets married, she should make a clear distinction and not treat her husband's family as a foil to her natal family.

"It's good that the master has made a decision." Mrs. Xue said, "There is indeed no one at home."

"According to the past, if I'm gone, your three mothers' lives will not be so easy." Master Xue patted Madam Xue's hand lightly, "Without support, orphans and widows, should they go to Beijing or stay in Jinling When we arrive in the capital where rich and powerful are everywhere, who will we rely on?"

The Xue family is a big piece of fat that everyone wants to bite.

"Second brothers and the others are traveling around, if something happens, they won't be able to help you." Master Xue has already figured it out, if someone really wants to harm their family, they, the adults and elders, can easily be wiped out.

For example, his health is not good. According to his previous condition, he will be gone after a few years of illness.And his second brother was outside, and if a bandit or the like appeared casually, his second brother would easily disappear.

As long as Master Xue thinks about this, he feels that the Xue family is not prosperous now, that is, it is in the crater of a volcano, and it may be destroyed by the lava of the volcano at any time.

Instead of waiting for destruction, it is better to think of a way.It would be good if the Xue family donated most of the silver and also donated most of the future profits.Of course, future profit donations can be presented to the emperor in private, so there will not be so many people staring at it, and the emperor will make the first donation.

The Xue family is loyal to the emperor, and the emperor must not be jealous of the Xue family's money when he sees it.In history, there have been rich merchants who were confiscated by the emperor.The Xue family is said to be the richest man in Jinling, but in the eyes of many people, it is estimated that they can catch up with the richest man in the world.

Thinking of this, Mr. Xue's eyes turned red. He used to think that something happened to him, and there was still so much money in the family, which was enough for his wife and children, but he didn't think about these things.If he is gone, leaving his wife and children behind, and someone with a heart to provoke his son, the Xue family will end even more early.

"This time, I didn't tell my uncle." Master Xue sighed, "It's not good for him after this matter has passed."

If it is known by outsiders, it will be passed to the emperor's ears.Should the emperor think that whether the Xue family donates money or not depends on the Wang family's wishes.If the Wang family refuses, the Xue family will not donate

Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is even more impossible for Master Xue to discuss with Wang Ziteng.

"It's all money from the Xue family." Mrs. Xue said, "You don't have to spend it."

Perhaps Xue's family is also considered to have a guardian from the Wang family, but the Xue family's money is not Wang's after all.The new emperor has been on the throne for two years and is still young. Of course, the Wang family is also loyal to the emperor, so there is no problem for her husband to do so, and she is considered to be on the same boat.

Mrs. Xue didn't understand politics, so she didn't think that much.She cared more about her children than her elder brothers.

"I've been worried all these years." Mrs. Xue didn't hide it, and it's not a secret. "At night, there are times when I cry. I'm worried that my husband is really going, and I won't be able to protect my children. What about the family business?"

It is impossible for Mrs. Xue not to be sad when her husband is ill, and sometimes she sheds tears secretly, but she dares not let others know, especially her son and daughter.The relationship between her and her husband may not be particularly deep, but there is still a big difference between having a man to rely on and not having a man to rely on.

Everyone said that the Xue family's wealth was comparable to that of an enemy country, and that the Xue family was powerful and powerful.But Mrs. Xue understood that during the years when her husband was ill, she was much more careful outside.I don't dare to make those official wives unhappy, and I don't dare to bother my mother's family too much.

Favors are not so easy to use, and you can't just go to your mother's family whenever there is a problem.I have searched too many times, so what should I do next?

When she first married into Xue's family, Mrs. Xue was quite arrogant outside and put her status higher.In recent years, Mrs. Xue has kept a low profile and calmed down a lot.

"Walking outside, I thought about being more stable, so I was more stable." Mrs. Xue said, "Sometimes I wonder if others think that the Xue family will fail."

The daughter of the Xue family does not study much, and has not learned many things. The daughter of the Xue family is also arrogant.Over the years, Mrs. Xue has changed a lot, at least she is much more tactful in dealing with the world, and her temperament is much gentler and kinder.

"Thank you for your hard work." Master Xue looked at his wife, his eyes were reddish, "Is it my fault that made you worry."

"The husband must take good care of himself. Brother Pan and Baochai are still young." Mrs. Xue smiled, "I still need a father."

"Yes." Master Xue nodded.

In the capital, the emperor specially asked the great eunuch Jiang Sheng to read the Xue family’s papers in the court hall. Patriarch Xue had a good dream. The Buddha believed that the current emperor is a wise king. The Xue family wanted to donate money because the emperor was a wise king.Otherwise, if the Xue family didn't donate money sooner or later, how could they donate when His Majesty is in power today.

Most of the courtiers in the court were saying that Patriarch Xue was a cunning old fox, but if they were asked to donate so much money, let alone donate the same amount, they were very unwilling to donate most of the family's wealth.

Of course, those courtiers could not say that the head of the Xue family was cunning in front of the emperor, nor could they say that the Xue family was too bad.The Xue family said that the Buddha said that the emperor was a wise king. If they said that the Xue family was not good, wouldn't that be the same as indirectly calling the emperor.

The emperor has a heart, so of course he can know that Xue Pan is practicing martial arts.Xue Pan's failure in studying did not prevent him from being a companion. The emperor still decided to let Xue Pan go to Beijing as a companion. The most important thing was the loyalty of Xue's family.When Xue Pan grows up, he can also arrange a military position.

Mr. Zhang and Wang Ziteng from the household department were called to Xue's house in Jinling to escort the money to Beijing.

The prince was stunned, he didn't know that his brother-in-law made such a big move, and his brother-in-law never discussed it with him.Wang Ziteng is a smart person, and he was not overly angry because of this incident. The money of the Xue family belongs to the Xue family, and his brother-in-law is the head of the Xue family, so it is fine for the head of the Xue family to arrange the money as he wants.

At the same time, Wang Ziteng's view of his brother-in-law also changed.In the past, he only thought that his brother-in-law was an expert in business, but now, he thinks that his brother-in-law's flattering skills are also very high, and he is very bold.

Although the emperor did not tell Wang Ziteng how much silver the Xue family donated, it was definitely not a small amount, otherwise there would be no need for people to transport it, and the Xue family could send the silver notes directly to Beijing.If the amount is large, there is no bank note, so it is cash.

"Master Wang." Mr. Zhang from the household department came out of the imperial study with Wang Ziteng. Mr. Zhang said with a smile, "Master Wang has a good brother-in-law."

There was also a eunuch who announced the decree with them, so it was impossible for Mr. Zhang to ask more questions. The emperor would know the amount of money.The emperor didn't let them know now, maybe he was testing them, such as sending less money back to Beijing by then.

No matter what, Mr. Zhang is not worried, anyway, he can't embezzle the money privately.When it passed, so many people stared at it, and everyone knew the amount.Maybe the Xue family reported one amount to the emperor, and donated another amount, but if they are different, it should be more or less.

"It's Your Majesty's sage." Wang Ziteng cupped his hands towards the imperial study, "I was blessed by the Buddha, and the Xue family gave me silver."

Wang Ziteng never mentioned how good the Wang family was, nor did he praise the Xue family much.He was doing things by the emperor's side, which was regarded as a sharp blade in the emperor's hands. It was impossible for him to say more about the Wang family and the Xue family at this time, that was courting death.

The news spread quickly, and the people in Rongguo Mansion also knew about it.

Mrs. Wang was shocked. She really didn't expect that the Xue family would donate money to the emperor and even have a Buddha's dream.Her daughter was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and she made people publicize that her daughter had a great fortune and wanted to be a nobleman; when her youngest son was born, she got a jade title and was born.

There are true and false here, and some things are very strange.But Mrs. Wang felt that Patriarch Xue's dream was fake, but she just wanted to support the royal family.

"Then Baochai wants to enter the palace?" Mrs. Wang thought of this first, and she used money to pave the way early. After Xue Baochai grew up, the emperor was also in his prime. Even if Xue Baochai did not enter the palace, he could still marry those princes .

The emperor was grateful to the Xue family for donating so much money, and he would definitely not treat the Xue family badly.

Mrs. Wang thought how good it would be if the money belonged to her. Her status in Yuanchun was much higher than that of Xue Baochai, and she had to enter the palace to be a noble person.If my daughter had so much money by her side, why would she not be able to get promoted.

"Can you write to ask?" Zhou Rui's family said.

"Before, my sister said that she wanted to ask a nanny from the palace to teach her daughter." Of course, Mrs. Wang did not help her sister find a nanny from the palace. She only said that the nanny from the palace was very popular and had not left Beijing , has been invited to the house by various families.

Mrs. Wang does not want anyone to compete with her daughter for favor, and hopes that Jia Yuanchun can win the sacred heart alone in the palace.

Xue Baochai didn't know if Mrs. Wang was already in the Xue family in Jinling and whether she wanted to enter the palace. If she knew, she would definitely roll her eyes.She never thought of entering the deep palace that eats people and does not spit out bones. She is a cultivator, and she is not suitable for entering the palace.

At this moment, Xue Baochai was fiddling with clods of soil in the yard. She wanted to grow juicy white radishes, and of course she wanted to plant ginseng instead of white radishes.

"Are the new clothes ready?" Xue Baochai looked up, "I'm going to Xu's house tomorrow."

Because Xue's family was an imperial merchant, and Xue's father held a post in the household department, Xue Baochai could also wear clothes made of good materials.

Xue Baochai doesn't like to compete with those little radish heads, but it can't affect the reputation of the Xue family, and it can't make people think that the Xue family is so poor that they don't have good clothes to wear.Xue Baochai likes to go straight to wearing better clothes, and she can't lack anything like hairpins, as long as she doesn't look tacky, she dresses up like a little fairy.

What about Xu Jiayue and Zhang Jiayue, Xue Baochai is not afraid.
