But James didn't explain to Baochai, the origin of this rumor, Baochai was still very curious, pestered her husband and asked for a long time, and James explained the reason.

It turned out that he went to Jinling to see Xue Wang a few years ago, and Xue Wang didn't know that Baochai had gone to England. She only thought that this foreigner had seen Baochai in Guangzhou, and knew that her family was in the capital, so she came to ask for marriage.

It stands to reason that it is reasonable for the Xue Wang family to think so. Who would have thought that there would be men who would come from overseas just to get the consent and blessing of the woman's parents?

It just so happened that Xue Pan was controlled by the clan at that time, and the Xue Wang clan was still entangled with the clan about the ownership of the business. She thought to herself that she was only short of money in her own hands, and if there was money flowing, those industries would be able to be handled by herself, and the people in the clan would not worry about it at all.

So, as soon as King Xue had an idea, he opened his mouth and asked James that if he could come up with 100,000 taels of silver, he would marry his daughter to him.

It was the first time James had met such a woman, and he was simply shocked. He finally knew why Baochai didn't say a word about the family's affairs, and even why she smiled strangely when she said that she wanted her mother's blessing.

James was heartbroken by what happened to Baochai, and he fell in love with this strong woman even more, but at the same time, he also felt disgusted with Baochai's mother.

He knew that if such a family was not handled well, it would become Baochai's nightmare in the future, bringing endless trouble to Baochai. So even if the lion of the Xue Wang clan opened his mouth, he agreed.

But at that time, James didn't bring so much money over, and even if the gold and all the currencies around him could be exchanged, they would not add up to 10,000 taels.

James was in a hurry and asked Benjamin to borrow money. Benjamin was also angry when he heard about this, after all, it was his wife's cousin.

Benjamin has enough money, he has been doing business here all the year round, and after collecting the money in the capital, it is more than enough to take out 100,000 taels of silver.

But he couldn't just hand over all the profits from his business for nothing, so after the two negotiated, James agreed to transfer all the ownership of the auction house in Huaxia to Benjamin as interest. Benjamin can still be in the name of his auction house, but this auction house belongs to Benjamin alone.

And the principal of 100,000 taels, half of which still has to be repaid to Benjamin, and the remaining 50,000 is regarded as James' investment in the auction house.

The two negotiated, drew up an IOU and a contract, and Benjamin got a silver ticket and sent it to James overnight.

James also kept an eye on it, and found someone to inquire about the marriage process in Huaxia, and asked Xue Wang's to write a marriage letter, and his own letter of appointment was also in duplicate, with fingerprints pressed, one left in Xue Wang's place, and one James took back.

After the whole process was completed, the silver ticket was handed over to the hands of King Xue, and Baochai officially signed a marriage contract with James.

And Baochai didn't know about this matter, and she didn't even know that she and James were a legitimate couple, and she always felt in her heart that it was extremely unruly for her to marry someone in private.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" After hearing this, Baochai looked at her husband with tears in her eyes, and her voice was choked: "One hundred thousand silver, you ...... At that time, your auction house was opened, and if you took out the money, how would the auction house run? ”

James smiled and said, "Banks can take out loans, but they don't have to worry about the flow of funds." It's just that I don't want you to suffer anymore, and it's good to be relieved sooner. Originally, if you don't come back, she can't say anything, after all, I have officially married you.

"But if you have to come back, I can only guard you with you, lest she come to harm you again. But don't worry, I'm fully prepared this time, even if she really hurts you, I'll be able to take you out of here right away. ”

Baochai wiped her tears, but found that her tears were wiping more and more, she cried so much that she couldn't stop crying, threw herself into her husband's arms, and told her the real reason for her return.

Listening to his wife's words, James's heart couldn't help but tremble, he hugged his wife tightly and whispered, "My girl, you don't have to be like this. You really don't have to, I'm not scared at all, I trust you. ”

Baochai raised her head and looked at her husband affectionately, and the two couldn't help but hug and kiss each other.

The next day, Wang was still worried about Baochai's rumors, but when he saw Baochai, he saw that she was calm and comfortable, as if he hadn't heard those words at all.

Wang asked her, "You're not in a hurry at all?" If that's the case, we'll have to find a way to calm it down. ”

Baochai smiled: "Aunt don't worry about this, she will know in the future." Now that we have built momentum in Beijing, it is time for me to go back to Jinling. ”

Wang asked in surprise: "You kid, just left?" ”

Baochai asked rhetorically, "Why not?" All we want is to get my aunt's house and my grandfather's house out of this calamity. Now that this goal has been achieved, what is there not to go? ”

Wang pulled her and hurriedly said, "Silly child, what's the use of just picking us out?" Do you want your reputation? ”

Baochai said: "What is the use of my reputation? I won't go to Jinling and leave, even if that matter will implicate me, I will not be there.

And this rumor is not false. My mother did sell me, but it was none other than my husband. ”

Wang was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed: "What's going on, why did it become like this?" ”

Baochai smiled: "It turned out that he went to visit my mother privately, hoping to get my mother's blessing. My mother was short of money, so she hired me to him. He was afraid that I would be sad, so he didn't tell me.

But in the next few days, he learned of my plan and knew that I wanted to build a momentum and pull my aunt and grandfather's family out, so he made up his mind to pull me out as well.

So he was busy for a few days, looking for friends who had a relationship before, and spread the word little by little. Somehow, it was said that it was from my pawnshop. ”

Wang breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to say it earlier, why did you say it today, it made me worry for several days." ”

Baochai smiled: "I only heard about it yesterday, and I only learned it from James at night, didn't I tell my aunt early this morning?" ”

Wang finally swept away the haze, and said to Baochai with a smile: "Then if you want to go to Jinling, you can pack up, and I will have someone here to prepare a car for you." Remember to go to the old lady and say goodbye to her. ”

Baochai responded with a smile, first asked Yan'er to go back to clean up, went to Xianhe Hall by herself, and mentioned the matter of returning to Jinling with Jia Mu.

Jia Mu was also worried at first, but when she heard that this matter was legal and compliant from beginning to end, she immediately became happy.
