019 Family Affairs

In order to show her gratitude and value, Mrs. Xue San put on new clothes the next day.

Mrs. Xue's mother and daughter and Mrs. Xue San's mother and daughter all wore them, and the wives, grandmothers, and girls in the other rooms of the Xue family naturally didn't dare to slack off, so they also put them on.

At the beginning, some people thought the style was weird, but when there were more people wearing it, everyone must be blowing each other in business, and listening to others praise each other, they naturally got used to it, and even felt more and more beautiful.

The Xue family is absolutely influential in Jinling, and I heard that it is a style from overseas, and the decent wives and girls in Beijing and Yangzhou are all wearing it, and it has swept the entire Jinling in a few days, and the ready-to-wear clothes prepared in the Xue family's shop have been sold out.

The situation in Beijing, Yangzhou and other places is almost exactly the same, and the Xue family's ready-to-wear shops have to work overtime to make new clothes, and they have not been able to live in peace for many years.

After all, this kind of Western princess dress is too fashionable now, and wives, grandmothers, and girls are embarrassed to go out to eat and watch the play if they don't wear it.

The embroidery girls in various provinces are difficult to learn for a while, and some have already gone home for the New Year, so they can only work hard in the ready-to-wear shop of the Xue family.

The income of all the shops a year ago still belongs to the Xue family's big house, Xue Shen looked at the account books sent by the major shopkeepers of the clothing shop, and couldn't help but be speechless.

This Western princess dress alone, in such a short period of time, has forcibly increased the overall profit of all the ready-to-wear shops of the Xue family by two percent!

After the year, when Master Xue San came back, Xue Shen couldn't help but mention it.

Master Xue San was very surprised, and couldn't help but sigh, "Sister Bao has always been a wise person, even if Pan'er has half of her, she doesn't have to-"

When he said this, he hurriedly stopped his voice, if Xue Pan was really the same as Sister Bao, what else would happen to him?

Xue Shen sighed, and Master Xue San said, "I'm an uncle, but I'm embarrassed to take advantage of Sister Bao."

In this way, last year's nature was all owned by the big house.

From this year onwards, I will take out 10% of the money earned from the Western princess dress to add makeup to Sister Bao'er, how about it? ”

Xue Shen meant this, seeing that Master Xue San was so knowledgeable, he only said that he didn't dare to be good at it, and he went back to ask his wife and girl Yunyun.

Master Xue San also knew that he was talking a clichΓ©, so he said a few more polite words, thought about it, and said, "If Sister Bao still has such a good idea in the future, just take it to the shop, and I will still give her a profit."

Why wouldn't he do a win-win situation?

Xue Shen responded, of course, this is all a later story, so let's not mention it for the time being.

Besides, Master Xue San and Master Xue Liu took Xue Pan to Beijing to thank him, and they didn't return to Jinling until the sixteenth day of the first month.

Xue Pan whipped up all the way, although he lost some weight, his spirit was very good, and when he came back, he said to Mrs. Xue with a dance, "Mom, the emperor saw me in person, and asked me what I read."

I followed what my sister taught, saying that I couldn't read, and I barely learned some kung fu.

Although the emperor graciously rewarded me with the official title of my ancestor, I must not be able to write edicts and discuss seals, and it is still okay for the emperor to guard the city gate."

Ziwei Sheren is another name for the scholars in the Tang and Song dynasties.

In the early years of Tang Kaiyuan, the province of Zhongshu was changed to Ziwei Province, and the people of Zhongshu were changed to Ziwei people, and Ziwei people got their name from this.

Zhongshu Province originally had six members of the Zhongshu Society, and they were in charge of the drafting of "service and march, senator seals", as well as "edicts and edicts" and "seal books".

Xue Pan is a scumbag, let him be in charge of serving the march, senate the seal, draft the edict, seal the book, and ask for dereliction of duty every minute.

However, fortunately, although the ancestor of the Xue family was a Ziwei Sheren, that is, he received a false title, he mainly did business and provided economic assistance for Taizu to fight the world and rule the world.

Mrs. Xue originally came here to ask Xue Pan to find an errand under Wang Ziteng, Xue Baobao knew the final outcome of the four major families and Wang Ziteng, so he naturally didn't want Xue Pan to continue to follow Wang Ziteng.

Besides, Xue Baobao wanted to ask Xue Pan to find an errand, that is, to find a serious thing to do for the troublemaker, so as not to have nothing to do every day, go out to find flowers and ask willows, and cause trouble, and he didn't think about asking him to become an official and a knight.

On the pretext that the prince was freed out, and on the pretext that the Son of Heaven's close ministers were more favored, he thought of this wording for Xue Pan.

The position that the emperor personally appreciates, no matter how big or small, is definitely more fragrant than asking for the prince!

Mrs. Xue hurriedly asked, "What did the emperor say?" ”

Xue Pan coughed, imitating the emperor to make a reserved appearance of being old and serious, "Aiqing is innocent and simple, not like a member of the Xue family, and it is too hard to guard the city gate, you can go to the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division to report after the year."

Xue Baobao, "......"

The emperor is definitely saying that Xue Pan is stupid, right?

Mrs. Xue covered her handkerchief and exclaimed, "Five Cities Soldiers and Horses! That's a great place to go! Did the emperor say what position you would receive? ”

"Then I didn't ask, I was so dizzy that I was praised by the emperor at the time, where do I remember to ask that?

Besides, since the emperor praised me so much, can he still treat me badly? ”

Mrs. Xue, "......"

I know that my son is unreliable!

Xue Baobao, "......"

Are you sure the emperor is complimenting you?

Although Xue Pan didn't figure out what he was going to do in the Fifty Percent Soldiers and Horses, the entire Xue family was still boiling.

From the return of Master Xue San to the end of the first month, Xue Pan had a sense of unreality, he saw the emperor, and the emperor praised him!

When all the clansmen saw him, they congratulated him, complimented him, praised him for restoring the glory of his ancestors, and predicted that he would have a great future in the future.

All the outsiders saluted politely when they saw him, called him Lord Xue, and couldn't wait to get close to him and have a relationship.

In just two months, he has gone from being scolded by everyone and just wanting to scrape benefits from him, and even the dumb overlord who betrayed him with his personal followers has become a majestic Ziwei Sheren, side by side with his ancestors!

If it weren't for the fact that his martial master had been following him closely, not allowing him to wander outside, and not allowing him to drink too much, he would almost have thought he was dreaming.

Xue Pan dreamed in the pursuit of everyone during the day, but at night he was still locked up by Xue Baobao to study and learn martial arts.

Only now, he is much more willing.

Outsiders don't know, but he knows that it is not his mother who has a far-sighted vision, but his sister.

It was my sister who advocated taking a step back, freeing him from the calculations and frames of people with intentions, and giving him supreme glory.

My sister also makes him such delicious soup every day!

My sister is so good to him, he should always listen to her and not make her sad.

What's more, he thinks it's a good day like this......

……

……

During the Chinese New Year, Xue Pan was very busy, Xue Baobao and Mrs. Xue were not idle, Xue Pan had to seal Ziwei Sheren, and they invited wine for three days.

After that, people invited them to eat and watch the play almost every day.

It was not until the end of the first month that it stopped, and Mrs. Xue began to pack up.

Xue Baobao has always been lying flat as his lifelong goal, except for tossing and eating, he is not interested in anything, where is he impatient with these trivial things, and he does not help at all.

only grasped the general direction, and said to Mrs. Xue, "Mom, didn't you say that my uncle has been promoted to the control of the nine provinces and has already left the capital, and we are going to go to my aunt?"

Even if the elder brother attacked the title of Ziwei Sheren, it was still far from the Rongguo Mansion.

If we publicize it too much, it will make people laugh at us for being arrogant, and the wives and grandmothers of the Rongguo Mansion will be dazzling when they see it.

Moreover, our family is not more casual than in the past, but it is better to be more frugal, so as not to let my brother be loose and return to his old state."

When Mrs. Xue heard this, she was really reasonable, and said with a smile, "My son, you really think about it."

Since we have handed over the Xue family's business, we should have a thrifty appearance, otherwise we will let others guess the degree, calculate our family, and hook your brother not to learn well.

In this way, I will give it to your uncle's house, and the clay of each master of your aunt's house will be reduced by half.

Let's put a few new clothes and jewelry for a while, and wear them slowly in the future."

Xue Baobao immediately said, "Mom said very well, and the other one is the one who serves."

I heard that the serious girls of the Guogong Mansion are also followed by a few girls, so it's not good for us to get a bunch of people to wait for us.

It's better to pick those who need to be used and take them to the capital, and the others have released the deed of life, so that they can find their own future, and my wife will accumulate merit for me and my brother.

In the future, if there is not enough manpower, you can buy it in the capital, and you don't have to bring it to attract people's eyes."

Since the Xue family took back the title of Ziwei Sheren, Mrs. Xue has trusted Xue Baobao very much, and there is naturally no reason not to follow her when she is reasonable.

When Xue Baobao saw that she responded, he said that he wanted to share her worries, and went to Xue Shen and his wife in person, and told them to ask everyone about their wishes first, and those who did not want to leave their hometowns should all be released.

The rest of the people are loyal and honest, can work, are willing to work, don't make trouble and don't talk much, and the rest are also released, and there is no need for any deed of silver.

Xue Shenjia said with a smile, "Mrs. Zhenzhen is a bodhisattva, don't worry, girl, I will go back and leave who will stay."

The Xue family has been rich for several generations, and the accumulation of house slaves is definitely a huge number, although it is scattered in eight rooms, but there are definitely a lot of large houses alone.

However, many slaves have been slaves in the Xue family for several generations, and they have married each other for so many years, and the relationship is complicated, almost everyone has a background, and everyone is not easy to offend, and it is extremely difficult to manage.

Now it is best for the girl to let out those who are not good to serve.

Xue Baobao smiled and said, "That's not it, Mrs. has always been extremely kind."

By the way, Uncle Xue, although Mrs. said that we will live in Rongguo Mansion when we enter Beijing, and we don't have to clean our own house.

But after all, the Rongguo Mansion is a relative's house, but it is not easy to live for a long time, and Uncle Xue has to bother Uncle Xue to send someone to clean it first, if there is anything that needs to be repaired, just report it.

Just remember one thing, no matter how you repair it, it's good, but you can't be extravagant, just live comfortably.

Flowers and trees, etc., the original ones are kept, and the others don't need to be added, so I'll talk about them later."

In the original book, the mother and son of the Xue family lived in the Lixiang Courtyard of the Rongguo Mansion, and then they didn't leave!

The Rongguo Mansion was also embarrassed to drive people away, so they wanted to settle down that group of small actors when they were repairing the Grand View Garden, so they said that they wanted Lixiangyuan.

That's a blatant drive.

As a result, the Xue family was stunned and didn't leave, so they asked Jiafu to rearrange a courtyard.

At that time, when she was reading the book, she felt that the Xue family was a little thick-skinned, and at this time it was her turn, thinking that she and her mother would do such a thing, she couldn't wait to shut herself up.

She doesn't have that thick skin!

Xue Shen couldn't imagine that Mrs. Xue was planning to live in Jiafu for a long time, and he very much agreed with Xue Baobao's words about not being luxurious, and saluted, "Girl, don't worry."

After Xue Shen finished speaking, he saluted and retired, and Xue Shen said with a smile, "Girl, there is something else I want to ask the girl to have an idea, does the girl remember the little girl that the uncle and Feng Gongzi fought for?" ”

Xue Baobao nodded, Zhen Yinglian, you must remember!

Before she went to Yangzhou, she told Xue Shen to take advantage of Xue Pan's absence to send someone to help Zhen Yinglian find her parents, and then send her some money to reunite with her parents.

Xue Shen said that the matter has been done, is this another moth?

Wouldn't her stupid brother also look for it, and rob the people's daughter again, right?
