After saying that, Yuan Ye felt that he had gone too far.
Her heart softened.
This soft-heartedness was mainly because Xue Baochai was too beautiful. Yuan Ye couldn't bear to see her so pitiful.
But now, he couldn't ask for a reduction.
Instead, he let Xue Baochai bring it up.
He could also take advantage of the situation.
"We really don't have that much money. Ever since Father died, our Xue family's business has been getting worse by the day.
In addition to my brother's character of causing trouble by spending money like water, we have spent a lot of money and have reached the point where we can't make ends meet.
It was already not easy to gather four million taels of silver.
We really don't have any more."
Xue Baochai said pitifully to Yuan Ye.
Now, Xue Baochai only hoped that Yuan Ye would be kind and spare their family.
Don't kill them all.
"Actually, I didn't want this to happen.
But you're too close to the Jia family.
This official is also a sworn enemy of the Jia family, so you should understand that your money will fall into the Jia family's pocket if this official doesn't scam you.”
"Also, you thought that Aunt Xue wanted to promote your marriage with Jia Baoyu in order to rely on the power of the Jia family. In fact, this is exactly what Madam Wang wants.
The Xue family's property is not something that this official covets, the Jia family is also coveting.
When you marry Jia Baoyu, Xue Pan won't live long.
As long as Xue Pan dies, all of your and Xue family's assets will become Jia family's.”
Yuan Ye looked at Xue Baochai's pitiful appearance and was instantly moved.
Xue Baochai was indeed a character who was on par with Lin Daiyu in the first volume of the Twelve Golden Hairpins.
It was too beautiful.
Furthermore, he was well-versed in the four arts.
She was truly a rare treasure goddess.
Therefore, Yuan Ye was prepared to use the same method he used to convince Lin Ruhai to convince Xue Baochai and Aunt Xue.
"Impossible, that's my sister.
She wouldn't harm Pan 'er."
As soon as Yuan Ye finished speaking, Aunt Xue was unhappy.
He directly shouted at Yuan Ye.
"You are still too naive.
Let's put it this way. The current Jia family was already unable to make ends meet. The Jia family probably could not even take out 200,000 taels.
Moreover, he even placed money behind his back.
Think about it. A respectable family like the Jia family would do anything without money.”
"Let's not talk about anything else. Why does Grandmother Jia want her granddaughter to marry Jia Baoyu?
Why was it that when my father-in-law, Lin Ruhai, and my mother-in-law were working in the capital, nothing happened to them and they even gave birth to a son for the Lin family? But after Grandmother Jia sent an old nanny over to take care of my mother-in-law, the son died prematurely, while my father-in-law and mother-in-law's health deteriorated day by day. In the end, after giving birth to my fiancée, my fiancée was born poor and weak, and my mother-in-law passed away?
Think about the connection between them.
Four generations of marquises in the Lin family and my father-in-law is the salt inspector.”
Yuan Ye explained to Xue Baochai and Aunt Xue in a low voice.
The two of them broke out in cold sweat as they listened.
"You…you mean, Old Ancestor…Grandmother Jia killed her own daughter and grandson for the sake of the Lin family's assets?”
Xue Baochai asked Yuan Ye with a pale face.
Aunt Xue was also trembling.
The two of them didn't believe it. After all, Grandmother Jia was such a kind and reasonable old lady. How could she do such a thing? However, after listening to Yuan Ye's deduction, they couldn't find a reason to countersue.
Moreover, all the evidence pointed to Grandmother Jia.
It was utterly devoid of conscience and utterly tragic.
"Don't forget, the old lady of the Jia family let her eldest son live next to the cowshed, and the second son occupied the Rongxi Hall where the family head lives.”
Yuan Ye reminded.
Hearing this, Xue Baochai and Aunt Xue were more convinced.
"But that doesn't mean that my aunt is going to swallow our family's assets!
My aunt is not that kind of person!”
Although Xue Baochai knew what kind of person Grandmother Jia was, she still did not believe that Madam Wang would swallow their family property and then persecute Xue Pan.
"Lady Wang and Lady Jia are the same kind of people.
You only see the Grandmother Jia and Madam Wang, who look kind on the surface, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha every day.
But have you ever seen them kill without shedding blood?
There were many vengeful souls buried under the Jia Clan.”
"Do you think that after you marry Jia Baoyu, with your family's little tricks, you can defeat Grandmother Jia and Madam Wang, who have been fighting at home for their entire lives?
If the two of you can't win, then this hanging fool Xue will die.
If he dies, the Xue family will have no descendants, so you will inherit the Xue family's property.
But you married Jia Baoyu and became a member of the Jia family. Isn't your money still the Jia family's money?”
"Remember, you can't judge a book by its cover.
Although they looked kind on the surface and were blood relatives, they were actually filled with evil thoughts.
Unlike me, who has never said that I am a good person.
I'm scamming you because I'm telling you clearly in front of you and telling you that I want to confirm it.”
Yuan Ye earnestly advised Xue Baochai.
"It's true. What Daren said is true.
Your aunt could really do such a thing.”
As Xue Baochai listened, she felt that this world was very unfamiliar. She really wanted to go home.
They schemed against each other and killed without shedding blood.
And it was the kind where you had to count the money and thank others for selling you.
Aunt Xue said as if she had accepted her fate.
"What?!"
Although Xue Baochai felt that the world was dark, she did not completely believe Yuan Ye's words.
After all, Xue Baochai had been smart since she was young and knew how to endure. She was not so easy to fool.
Now that he heard Aunt Xue's words, he was shocked.
"That's right. Mother is from the Wang Clan and has lived with them since she was young.
Your aunt and I grew up together. It was about two years apart.
I've been weak since I was young, and your aunt has been strong. She has done many things behind my back.
He was really bold.
However, no one had ever found out that she was the one who did it.
She thought I was her sister, but…
Now, it seems that I'm just a chess piece being used.
I was so silly to be deceived by her."
Aunt Xue's eyes were filled with tears as she told the truth.
Xue Baochai was completely shocked.
"Look, what did I say?
If you give me money, I can let your Xue family keep an heir.
However, the Jia family wants all of your assets, not to mention the people. You have to be stupid enough to thank them.”
Yuan Ye acted like he finally understood and started to act like a good person.
"But even so, even if we give the entire Xue family to you, it won't be enough for seven million taels.”
Xue Baochai said awkwardly.
Now that Yuan Ye wanted them to pay, they had to accept it.
However, he really didn't have that much money to give to Yuan Ye.
