Mr. Xue was the first to recognize the man. He was stunned for a moment, then hurried over and scolded him softly:
"How can you be so ignorant, girl? This is where you're supposed to be. Go back now!"
His tone was full of concern.
Mr. Xue felt deeply sorry for his niece, who was outstanding in both talent and character.
When my eldest brother was alive, he often wondered why she was not a man.
But now he has not yet resolved his own affairs, and he can't spare too much attention to others.
Xue Baochai smiled slightly and said, "Second Uncle, I came here today to give you uncles some advice."
Although Master Xue knew that his niece was smart, he was still worried that a girl like her would show up here alone and ruin her reputation.
"We don't need your advice, just go back!"
Baochai shook her head and looked through the crowd at the old man lying on the bed with no desire for life. Her voice became a little louder:
"Baochai knows that she is too young to earn the trust of the uncles. However, there is no better way now. Why don't you uncles listen to Baochai's ideas?"
A group of people looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
The old man on the bed had someone help him up: "Xue Er and Xue Yang stay, the rest of you go out first. Baochai, come in and talk."
After hearing what the old man said, Mr. Xue looked at his niece with worry and helplessness, and stepped aside to let others go out.
Xin Guoguo helped Xue Baochai into the house.
Leave the door open.
Others also crowded at the door, looking forward to it.
Xue Baochai entered the room and first bowed to Old Master Xue: "People's words are terrible. Old Master, please forgive Baochai for being rude."
Old Master Xue looked at her Mi Li and nodded: "That's as it should be."
Xue Baochai did not stand up: "Baochai wants to be the head of the Xue family, please grant my wish, old master."
"What?!" Old Master Xue and the other two people present widened their eyes in surprise.
Old Master Xue was the first to react: "Nonsense! How can a girl like you be the head of a family?! If this doesn't work out, you can go back!"
However, Mr. Xue was surprised for a moment, but then he felt it was natural.
In terms of talent and character, my niece is no worse than boys.
I just didn't think about it that way before.
Now that I hear she has such ambitions, it seems reasonable.
As the current head of the Xue family, Xue Yang thought about more.
In just a moment, he thought of countless benefits of Baochai becoming the head of the family.
"Old Master, please be patient and listen to Baochai's words."
Baochai spoke slowly, but her hands under her sleeves were already wet with sweat and clenched tightly together.
"Putting aside her identity, if we only consider her abilities and means, what does Old Master think of Baochai?"
Old Master Xue thought about it carefully and said, "Of course, there is no need to say anything."
The little girl often follows Boss Xue at a young age, and sometimes helps Boss Xue with ideas. Who in the Xue family doesn't say that she is capable?
But at the same time, it’s just a pity.
If such a capable child were a boy, the Xue family would surely be able to reach a higher level under her leadership.
Being recognized, Xue Baochai grinned, her eyes and eyebrows curved, and even her tone of voice became a little lighter:
"Now, all of the Xue family's property has been sold off. Even though each family has received a large sum of money, the old man must have an idea of how long this little money can sustain them."
This sentence directly hit Old Master Xue's pain point.
If it weren't for this, why would he have fainted from anger today?
"If I were the head of the family, I wouldn't dare to say I would take the Xue family to a higher level, but at least I would ensure that if I have a bite to eat, I will never let anyone go hungry. You have watched me grow up, so you naturally understand me. Do you think you can believe what I say?"
Xue Baochai's words made Old Master Xue very moved.
Xue Yang was also very tempted.
No matter what, Xue Baochai is a member of his Xue family, so she naturally would not be as heartless to the Xue family as Xue Wangshi.
Besides, they have watched Baochai grow up since she was a child. Her abilities and character are impeccable.
However, there is still only one problem...
"Even if we agree to this, I'm afraid it won't work."
If Baochai decided to fight, she would inevitably break with the Jia and Wang families, even the Shi family, and a number of aristocratic families. Even her mother would probably not stand on her side.
Compared with the other two families, the Xue family is weak, so how can they protect Baochai?
By then, not only Baochai, but the entire Xue family will have to endure the oppression from those powerful people.
When Xue Baochai heard this, she knew it was a success.
She suppressed her excitement and said, "Don't worry about this, Old Master. I will handle it. Just think of it as a test for me."
Old Master Xue hardened his heart and said, "Okay!"
"Now that it's settled, please wait for my news. I'll be going to the capital in two days. Once I've accomplished my mission, please don't forget our agreement today."
"nature."
After the matter was settled, Baochai didn't dare to stay any longer. She said goodbye to a few people and left in a hurry.
It wasn't until she returned to her room and put Mi Li down that she breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, I couldn't help but feel happy.
Holding Xing Guoguo's hand: "Mammy, I succeeded!"
Xing Guoguo smiled and patted her hands: "The girl is great."
The little girl became even happier after receiving the praise.
On the other side, as soon as Xue Baochai and her servant left, other members of the Xue family rushed in hurriedly.
"Old Master, Clan Leader, why did you agree to this? Is this reliable?"
Old Master Xue was calm and composed: "If not, do you have any better ideas?"
