Xue Baochai shook her head. "Mom, what my aunt did has nothing to do with us. Maybe the Jia family and the Lin family will vent their anger at the beginning. As long as we are respectful and polite, we should be able to get understanding. Therefore, my daughter thinks the Wang family should go more, but the Jia family and the Lin family can't go either. If we don't go, people think we are guilty?"
Xue pan thought about it carefully and felt that her sister had some truth. "Yes, mom, I still have to go, but be careful in the future. Besides, uncle, hey, mom, to tell the truth, I don't get help every time I go to the Wang family.
Last time the Wang family paid the debt, my uncle couldn't get 800000 taels of silver. I sent 100000 taels of silver. My aunt is not enough. Let me give another 300000 taels of silver. Mom, listen clearly. It's given, not borrowed.
Even if my family can take out 300000 liang of silver now, but give it to the Wang family. How can I still have the capital to do business in the future? Since my father died, I have been involved in a lawsuit, and the qualification of imperial merchants has been won by the second uncle. If we don't have the capital, we won't have a chance to turn over in the future. "
Xue Baochai also nodded, "yes, mom. We can't count on the Wang family for everything. They want to turn all our money into the Wang family. Every time we go back, my aunt cries for poverty. Mom, back and forth, how much money did you give the Wang family?"
Aunt Xue was embarrassed, "not much!"
Hearing this, Xue Baochai was not happy. "If you had said this before, I would still believe it. Since I paid off the debt last time, I began to clean up my family's accounts. Before and after, you gave your aunt 130000 liang of silver, and there were 180000 liang of silver for the Wang family. That adds up to 31000 liang of silver.
With this silver, even if we don't eat or drink, we can live for several generations. Even if we don't do business, my brother won't have a chance in the imperial examination, but we can have more nephews and raise them well. In the future, our Xue family can still become a scholarly family. "
Xue pan stood up from the stool with a miso when he heard this. "Mom, do you really give your mother and uncle so much money?"
Aunt Xue was embarrassed and very guilty. "You know I have a good face and a stupid mouth. They cried in front of me that I have no money and I have silver in my hand. I can't get through without giving them!
After all, we are compatriots, and we are businessmen. We have to rely on your aunt and the Wang family to settle the lawsuit for you, and we also want to say a good marriage to your sister! If we don't promise them not to give them money, how will they want to? "
Hearing this, Xue pan and Xue Baochai both looked lost.
Xue Baochai said, "Alas, after all, my father died early. My brother hasn't grown up yet. I'm a woman again. It's inconvenient to appear in public!"
Xue pan thought for a while and then suggested, "sister, don't belittle yourself! I also know if I can do it. It's inconvenient for you to appear in public, but you can plan strategies at home. I can go out and do things that need to run errands! I have unexpected things. If you remind me in advance, I can be more prepared!"
Xue Baochai thought his brother's suggestion was good, so he nodded, "what my brother said is! I will dress up as a man when I go out in the future, which is more convenient!"
Aunt Xue wanted to object, but she secretly gave so much silver. She was very guilty and didn't dare to say.
