From now on, Xue Baoqin will never have anything to do with the Mei family again! Xue Song looked at the surging river and thought in his heart. Xue Baoqin is the most beautiful and generous girl in the Red Mansions, and her vision and mind are the same as those of the golden girls who grew up in boudoir.

Chai Chai is different. She followed her father and saw the vast world when she was young. Her mind was free and relaxed. Her poems were filled with a kind of freedom and pride that those weak women lacked. She lived a life full of spirit!

Xue Baoqin also has a warm and relaxed family, loving and open-minded parents, and a friendly and progressive brother. She should have been happy throughout her life. However, in the illusion of Taixu, she was also classified as a "miserable person".

When Xue Baoqin appeared on the stage, she was wearing white snow and red plum blossoms, and she was dressed in gorgeous clothes. She was extremely stunning and special, but under the shining color, there was hidden the inhumane bitterness and sadness.

Bitter. Her father died young, her mother was seriously ill, and her family gradually declined, leaving her brother alone. What’s worse is that the Mei family, who had been engaged since childhood, showed signs of repentance. What a big blow to a cardamom girl!

This is a marriage arranged by the father for Xue Baoqin since he was a child. It is very honorable. But the master of the Mei family is a member of the Imperial Academy, the most noble civil servant, and has a bright future. How come he has an intersection with the Xue family? The civil servants do not even look down on military honors.

How could he be willing to marry a businessman? Moreover, Xue Baoqin’s father was not even considered an imperial businessman?

The only explanation is that the two met when Mei Hanlin was humble, and Mei Hanlin received great favor from Xue Baoqin's father. In order to repay the favor, or because he took a fancy to the Xue family's property, he agreed to marry. Xue's father

Befriending Mei Hanlin, I thought he was a talented and virtuous gentleman, so I agreed. Considering Mei Hanlin's status at the time, the Xue family might still consider him a downtrodden.

Many years later, Mei Hanlin, who was prosperous, looked down on the declining Xue family. He wanted to regret his marriage, but he was worried about being accused of being ungrateful and ruining his family's noble reputation. So he very smartly adopted the method of delaying and avoiding

This is a strategy, otherwise, how could the whole family go to work in another place without sending any news to the Xue family?

Girls have limited youth and cannot afford to waste it! Mei Hanlin is waiting for the Xue family to come and break off the engagement, so that the Mei family can escape completely. In this way, he will still be an innocent and noble civil servant without a trace of dust!

Haha, Mei Hanlin's despicable behavior can really compete with Jia Yucun! Women in this era have a difficult life, and the innocent Xue Baoqin delayed her youth because of this, and was burdened with stigma. The woman whose engagement was broken off,

It must be his own fault, everyone in the world thinks so. Xue Baoqin suffered such great harm for no reason, and he still doesn’t know where he will end up in the future!

In this life, Xue Baoqin will definitely not have such a miserable experience! Xue Song thought with heavy eyes, how Mei Puhua lost his help, and what kind of fate she would have. He was really curious!

The ship arrived at Jinling City. As soon as he stepped onto the pier, Xue Pan saw the steward of the Xue family and several subordinates looking around. They had been waiting here for several days.

As soon as they saw Xue Song, they immediately greeted him happily and rushed to congratulate Xue Song and say thank you for your hard work. The steward immediately ordered the boy to go to the ship to carry the luggage, respectfully invited Xue Song to the carriage, and immediately separated the two of them.

, go back immediately to report the news.

While Xue Song was still on his way on the boat, the imperial court had already sent the official list of Jinshi candidates to various places. The Jinling Prefecture had already sent messengers to Xue's house to report the good news. At this time, the neighbors, relatives and friends were all busy.

Got it,

The Xue family clan is also in a sensation. This is a second-class Jinshi, and Xue Song is still ranked very high. What an honor it is! Everyone has already come to congratulate them, and they are waiting for Xue Song to come back and make a big deal.

What a celebration!

The master has sent us to wait for you at this pier for several days. Second master, let’s go home quickly! The steward urged with a smile on his face.

As soon as Xue Song's carriage arrived in front of the gate of Xue Mansion, he saw a group of servants gathered in front of the gate. Seeing Xue Song, they shouted "Second Master is back!" and "Hurry up and report to Master!"

Then the firecrackers sounded loudly. At this time, Mr. Xue and Xue Lin received the news and had already walked to the door to welcome Xue Song back home in full glory.

"Okay, Song'er, you have done a good job for the Xue family!" Mr. Xue was delighted. When he saw Xue Song saluting him, he stepped forward and grabbed her, smiling from ear to ear.

A few days ago, Jinling Mansion sent good news with great fanfare, and this time it was delivered by the head of the ceremony room. The head of the ceremony was enthusiastic. As soon as they met, he praised Mr. Xue and praised Xue Song for his young achievements.

The master teaches his son well

, and also said that Magistrate Sun was very happy when he heard about it. It was inconvenient for him to come and entrusted him to express his congratulations. Magistrate Sun's attitude was close and polite, and he clearly regarded Xue Song as one of his own of the same class.

Treated.

From now on, the Xue family has not only become a noble and royal merchant, but can also be called a scholarly family. In the future, if the descendants are willing, they can develop in this direction. In this way, not only the Xue family can

Stabilizing the foundation and momentum can also add a way out and avoid internal fighting among descendants.

Xue Song drank a cup of tea, and before returning to his own garden, he recounted his experience in the capital to his father and brother. After listening to this, Mr. Xue pondered for a long time. He was shocked at first, and his palms were sweating;

Later, it was a surprise; when I thought about it again, my heart started to tremble.

Mr. Xue has been worried since Xue Song came to Beijing. He is not too worried about Xue Song's fame. He has already determined that he will be a top three Jinshi. After all, Xue Song ranked quite low in the examination.

What he is afraid of is that Xue Song will act out of anger when he confronts Prince Zhongyi. What should he do if he offends Prince Zhongyi? Songer, can he withstand Prince Zhongyi's revenge?

Also, although Song'er promised that he would bear the consequences, would Prince Zhongyi really take it seriously? Will he vent his anger on the entire Xue family? If nothing else, it would be easy to make things difficult for him as an imperial merchant.

, you can always pick out the bones from the eggs, so what about the Xue family’s business?

After Xue Song came to Beijing, Xue Lin began to regret it more and more. He also went to talk to Mr. Xue about the matter. He felt that Xue Song was too bold and suggested that his father agree to let him rush to the capital immediately to stop it, at least to Uncle Wang.

He wrote a letter to Wang Ziteng, telling him the whole story, and begging them to try to intercede for the Xue family. After thinking about it for a long time, Master Xue gritted his teeth and refused.

Fortunately, they did not do so at that time, and both of them felt happy in their hearts. Emperor Yongming's praise of Xue Song showed that his move was in line with the emperor's wishes. This was a good bet! If he really complied with the request of Prince Zhongyi,

The results of the Xue family are really unimaginable!

Master Xue couldn't help but sigh. From this, it can be seen that Song'er's vision is far better than that of himself and Xue Lin. He has experienced so much in half his life, but he can't see it as thoroughly as Song'er. This is the power of scholars!

He secretly decided that when Pan'er was older, he would invite a gentleman to teach him literacy and principles, but he could not stop studying, otherwise he would only become a rotten scholar, so let's take Song'er as an example. Xue Lin also kept silent.

Yan, in the face of such facts, he could only be convinced.

When the head of the Xue family and the elders heard that Xue Song was back, they came to the Xue Mansion excitedly. Xue Song became a Jinshi, and the Xue family benefited a lot. On the second day after the official announcement of the good news, the patriarch and Mr.

I went to the Jinling Mansion Office and successfully completed the procedures for all the men of the Xue family to be exempted from the corvee. The whole family was very happy. Now, everyone could confidently no longer suffer from the corvee.

This is all due to Xue Song's success! The clan elders gathered around Xue Song and praised him profusely. When Xue Lin saw this, he was silent for a moment, and then he calmed down.

At this moment, he really could no longer feel jealous of his younger brother. The attention and honor the Xue family had received these days made him realize what value Xue Song was to the Xue family. When you are with a person

When the gap is too big, you can only look up to him with envy!

The clan leader discussed with Mr.

It goes without saying that on the second day after Xue Song returned to Jinling City, Mr. Xue happily sent the housekeeper to collect the silver. The Xue family was not short of money, but these fifty taels of silver were extremely decent. Mr. Xue
Chapter completed!
