Chapter 540: Provincial Relatives
Uncle Xue laughed dryly twice, and looked away with some weakness.
Of course, the Xue family is in trouble, and it's not a small trouble!
In fact, since the second room of the Qin family was separated from the long room and the third room, the Xue family began to change its attitude towards the second room of the Qin family. The Xue family used to marry the Qin family, and relying on this in-law as a backer, they made a big business and made a lot of money. But after the second room was separated, the relationship with the long room and the third room was not harmonious, and the contact was almost broken, and then Qin Bofu didn't even have an official position, but he just left a vacant title of a six-grade official, and he couldn't say what kind of power position, how did this call the Xue family take advantage of the situation? Without a backer in the officialdom, the Xue family's business is not small, so naturally some people will target it. The reason why no one has taken it by force for the time being is just because Qin Bofu is the nephew of Queen Qin. Those who are interested will have to wait and see for a while, and when they are sure that the Xue family will not be able to borrow the Qin family's momentum, they will naturally not be polite anymore.
Under such circumstances, Qin Bofu still looked at the Xue family with the attitude he had in the past, which naturally caused some dissatisfaction among the Xue family. Especially because of the attitude of the Xue family, it is impossible for the Xue family to climb to the Qin family's room and the third room, and the aunt and grandmother, who used to be the pillar of the Xue family, have become an obstacle on the road to the Xue family's wealth, but they don't know it. Qin Bofu, who is useless in the eyes of the Xue family, can only open his mouth to ask for money and loves to put on a show and look down on people, which makes many people in the Xue family who claim to be their elders annoying.
At this time, the Xue family unexpectedly caught up with a nobleman, and felt that his family was expected to have another backer, so he didn't have to look at Qin Bofu's face anymore, and he didn't have to keep providing money to the Qin family's second room, but he couldn't get a few good words. It just so happened that Qin Bofu "made trouble" and fell out with the second room of the Xue family, so they simply delayed the matter, intending to make the matter go away, and put their energy on finding another backer. After Xiao Xue's parents went to Beijing, they did not mean to solve the problem of the Xue family's second room embezzling the wealth of the Qin family's second room, but instead had a cold attitude, which not only made Xiao Xue's sad and disappointed, but also made Qin Bofu angry. He simply cut off contact with the Xue family from then on, turned around and went back to curry favor with the long house and the third room, even in front of the eccentric mother Xue family, he did not let go.
At that time, the Xue family didn't care about this, at most they discussed it in private, thinking that Qin Bofu was not stupid enough to get home, and he knew that his family was weak now, so he turned around and hugged his family's thighs again. As for the Xue family, they wanted to catch up with that noble man at that time, and they were making good progress, so they didn't take Qin Bofu too seriously.
However, the Xue family's seemingly smooth plan was actually the beginning of their bad luck.
The Xue family originally made a business with the nobleman's housekeeper and made a lot of money, and when they heard that the other party's main family was a royal house, they were moved and wanted to take the opportunity to climb up. At that time, they didn't know which prince they wanted to climb, but they just thought that since they were the prince of the palace in the capital, the housekeeper could still take out so much silver to buy gifts and things, and he was also dressed extraordinary, and he brought many retinues in and out, so the main family must be even richer and more powerful.
They did a second business with each other, this time involving more goods and larger payments, and the other party did not want to buy the goods for their own consumption, but to transport them to other places to sell them at a high price to make money. The Xue family gave up 20% of the profits, although the flesh hurt, but they thought that if they could hug Jin's thighs, what would this money be worth? They only accepted a deposit of 10% from the other party, and delivered all the goods, and only after receiving the final payment, they could put forward suggestions for continuing cooperation in the name of a happy transaction, and at the same time let the female relatives of the family take the children to the princess to say goodbye.
Maybe the children of the Xue family can climb one or two noble relatives.
Who would have thought that noble man would be the prince of Shu?!
The prince of Shu was really prosperous for a while, and he had a little money in his hand, but he was not very rich at all, but he was just pompous. Now although he is not guilty, he has been involved in a life lawsuit, and he was ordered by the emperor to study behind closed doors, and he can't even go out of his house.
The Xue family didn't even dare to mention that they had dealt with the prince's mansion of the king of Shu!
But the Xue family didn't dare, it didn't mean that no one would.
When the Xue family thought they could hug Jin's thighs, they were also scared. Even if it's not many times, I've once shown some words in front of competitors. Those small merchants are just that, the merchants who can make their business big in the capital are not simple characters, they also have backers behind them, and after a little inquiry, they will know who the Xue family is relying on. Originally, an idle clan was nothing, and it had some face in the palace, but it needed to be a little more careful, but now this idle clan itself is difficult to protect, and the Xue family has fallen out with the grandson of the queen's mother's family, and it is so easy to get a piece of fat in the mouth, it is stupid not to take a bite, right? It doesn't take any effort, just need to buy a few people from the government, and the Xue family can bleed hemorrhage!
As a result, the Xue family lost a lot of property and money one after another, and there were family members who were in official trouble, and even Xue Erye, who was already expected to close the case some time ago, was also taken down by the government again and locked up in prison for interrogation. If it drags on like this, I am afraid that the Xue family will face the disaster of breaking down.
At this time, Qin Jinyi got married, and the Xue family insisted on inviting her mother's family to fill the scene, how could the Xue family not take advantage of the situation? Although the second room of the Qin family fell after the separation, but now Qin Bofu has reconciled with the two Hou mansions of his own family and started to be an official again, one daughter married into the Guogong Mansion, and the other daughter married the children of the Hou Mansion, this is to make a comeback, how can he let it go?!
The uncle of the Xue family kicked away the long room and the second room that had a part in the second room of the Qin family, and went out to curry favor with his cousin and niece, and even groveled to the humble attitude of his nephew and niece Qin Bofu, and finally coaxed Qin Bofu to be angry, occasionally gave him a good face, and no longer stopped the Xue family from coming to the door again, as if he was an in-law. In this way, the competitors who received the news relaxed the persecution of his family, and several lawsuits that were not serious had signs of peaceful settlement, and Xue Erye's case also saw the light of day, and it was impossible to be acquitted, and Qin Bofu had no intention of helping him say hello, but it was still possible to give a light sentence of a few years.
Now, the uncle of the Xue family wants to ask the little Xue family, who has always been soft-hearted and talkative, to help introduce a few nobles and do a few business with them. If you can take advantage of the situation to catch up with the imperial court, even if Qin Bofu throws his face to the Xue family again in the future, the Xue family will not even have a dependence!
The Xue family, who had suffered a big loss, after the family's fortune was halved and almost defeated, now they finally see it clearly: no backer in the world is as reliable as the Qin family, they must climb this in-law, and they can't lose it anymore no matter what!
The uncle of the Xue family explained the situation of his family to Xiao Xue's family in a hurry, and said: "Even if Liaodong will not go to war, now your family has climbed into a relationship with the Yunyang Hou Mansion, and there are many people in the Yunyang Hou family who are serving in the army, if they need to purchase military rations, cloth, cotton, medicinal materials, or something, the family is also doing business in this area, good nephew, can you help lead the line? We will definitely supply them with the best goods! Okay...... Find a backer for your family, so that those who are unpredictable will not dare to fight our family's idea again......"
Xiao Xue was dumbfounded when he heard this, and only after a while did he say, "I don't know at all...... Why haven't you heard from my family before?"
The uncle of the Xue family laughed dryly, and got involved with the prince of Shu, God knows if it was another case of rebellion by the clan? The Shu Wangfu was a bad thing, and the Shu Wangfu and his wife and their youngest son were all subdued, and then they had a relationship with his family, God knows what would be waiting for the Xue family? If they had known that the "palace" that did business with their family was the Shu Wangfu, they would not have paid attention to the housekeeper! To whom did the goods be sold and not sold?
It's better to do business with the imperial court.
Xiao Xue frowned for a long time before he said: "I am a woman and a Taoist family, where is there a way to do this? Our uncle works in Honglu Temple, and there is nothing that can be used by you." The Marquis of Yunyang's mansion is ...... People have their own businesses that are used to trading, so how can they use you for no reason? What's more, the lawsuit that broke out in the second room has not yet been concluded, and knowing that the Xue family has had shoddy behavior, why should the Cai family believe you? If something goes wrong, where will I have the face to go to my in-laws? Uncle doesn't need to mention it again. If you have the ability to talk about business on your own, I won't care. But I'm not going to do that for you. ”
The uncle of the Xue family left disappointed, but he refused to give up, and asked his wife to come to the door with some gorgeous clothes and jewelry, nominally to add makeup to Qin Jinchun, but in fact, he wanted to buy Xiao Xue's family and let her relax. Xiao Xue didn't know what to do, so he wanted to refuse strongly, and stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person. But if you agree, God knows what bad influence it will have on the youngest daughter? If you ignore it, just as your maternal uncle didn't mention it, the clothes and jewelry that were sent up are all valuable things, and she holds her hands hot. I didn't want to accept it, but my aunt repeatedly said that it was to add makeup to her little daughter, and she had no reason to refuse.
Xiao Xue has been worried for a long time, and she still doesn't dare to mention it to her husband Qin Bofu and youngest daughter Qin Jinchun. Both of them don't like the Xue family, if they know that the Xue family has something to ask for, they are afraid that they will be even more disgusted in their hearts. Now that she has finally reconciled with her mother's family and resumed normal contacts, what should she do if the two families turn their faces again?
At this time, the eldest daughter Qin Jinyi suddenly went home to save her relatives.
Xiao Xue was very stunned, and looked at the eldest daughter who was dressed in plain clothes and had a bad complexion: "Why did you come back well?" Fortunately, your father went on a business trip to the Yamen, otherwise he would have been angry to see you come back dressed like this!"
Qin Jinyi married into the Pei family as a daughter-in-law, and the Pei family is now keeping filial piety, and Qin Jinyi is equivalent to the identity of the lost family. Even if she is the daughter of the second room of the Qin family, it is quite unlucky to come back like this.
However, Qin Jinyi ignored her mother's question, and just asked with a straight face: "Mother has heard that the East Palace is about to enter a newcomer again?!"
Xiao Xue was stunned and didn't react. What does this have to do with their family? 2k reading web
