Xue Pan, his mother Aunt Xue, and his sister Xue Baochai currently live in Lixiangyuan in the northeast corner of Rongguo Mansion.

The Xue family is a wealthy family. They not only own many fields and houses in their hometown of Jinling, but also own many houses and shops in the capital city of Chang'an.

Ordinarily, with the financial resources of the Xue family, there is no need to live in Rongguo Mansion!

However, Aunt Xue insisted on staying in Rongguo Mansion!

On the surface, Aunt Xue has two very good reasons -

First, Xue Pan has always been difficult to control. Living in Rongguo Mansion, with his aunt and uncle in charge, he would always be more restrained.

Secondly, Aunt Xue and her sister Mrs. Wang met once a few years ago. Now they live in Rongguo Mansion and can talk about their sisterly love at any time.

Of course, in Aunt Xue's heart, there is another reason that she cannot express -

Ever since Xue Pan took charge of the family, he has been spending extravagantly, and the Xue family has been falling at a speed visible to the naked eye! At the same time, Xue Baochai is both talented and beautiful. If he can marry Jia Baoyu in person, then with the help of the Jia family, the Xue family can not only stop their decline, but also reach a higher level!

At twelve o'clock at noon, Jia Rui arrived at Lixiangyuan.

After meeting Xue Pan, Jia Rui presented a gift——

What I gave to Aunt Xue was a piece of fine brocade that cost more than ten taels of silver.

What was given to Xue Baochai was a set of "Thirteen Dynasties Strange Tales" printed by Chang'an Bookstore not long ago.

Seeing that Jia Rui bought a gift for his sister, Xue Pan immediately became vigilant——

"You failed to eat Sister Feng's tofu, but you want to eat my sister's tofu?"

Jia Rui thought to himself——

"It seems that Xue Dasha is not that stupid. He actually saw that I wanted to get involved with his sister!"

At that moment, Jia Rui laughed nonchalantly——

"Young Master, are you kidding me? Only Brother Bao can be worthy of a Celestial Immortal beauty like your sister!"

Xue Pan actually saw what his mother and sister were thinking! Therefore, when Xue Pan heard what Jia Rui said, he couldn't help but grin widely——

"Just kidding, just kidding!"

Although this time he spent twenty taels of silver to buy gifts for Xue Baochai and his daughter, Jia Rui still felt very sad!

You know, in this time and space, the total annual expenditure of an ordinary family is only twenty taels of silver!

However, there was no other way. In order to look familiar in front of Xue Baochai, a peerless beauty, Jia Rui would not hesitate to spend a lot of money!

However, when all the dishes were served, Jia Rui was shocked——

This is the most luxurious banquet he has ever seen since transmigrating!

There are some dishes that Jia Rui has never heard of!

Jia Rui’s initial estimate——

The price of this banquet is no less than thirty taels of silver!

From this, Jia Rui knew that Xue Pan, the idiot king, really lived a life of spending money like water!

Young Master Xue is a typical prodigal!

At the banquet, Jia Rui met Xue Pan's maid and concubine Xiang Ling!

When Jia Rui looked at it carefully, Xiangling's facial features were as delicate as Ping'er's!

In Jia Rui's opinion, Xiangling should be the most miserable person in "Dream of Red Mansions"!

However, at this moment, Xiangling was nestled in Xue Pan's arms, with a smile on her face.

Jia Rui sighed secretly in his heart.

Suddenly, with the sound of subtle footsteps, two girls walked in.

This is the first meeting between Jia Rui and Xue Baochai!

Because even Jia Rui’s former host has never met Xue Baochai!

However, Jia Rui recognized Xue Baochai immediately!

The description of Xue Baochai in "A Dream of Red Mansions" suddenly appeared in Jia Rui's mind——

"The face is like a silver basin, the eyes are like apricots, the eyebrows are unpainted but horizontally green, and the lips are not dotted but contain elixir."

Let’s look at Xue Baochai’s true appearance——

She was dressed in plain clothes, her hair was pulled up casually, no makeup was applied, and she was not wearing any jewelry, including the legendary gold lock!

Despite this, Jia Rui was still amazed!

Because Xue Baochai's appearance is more beautiful than Xiangling, and more attractive than Sister Wang Feng!

Jia Rui stood up and said with a smile: "Hello, Miss Bao!"

The smile on Xue Baochai's face was natural and kind——

"Thank you, Uncle Rui, for the gift to my mother and me!"

Jia Rui quickly waved his hand and said: "It's just a small gift, not a sign of respect. Just let Miss Bao like it."

Xiangling broke away from Xue Pan's arms and said to Xue Baochai: "Girl, please sit down!"

Xue Baochai nodded towards Xiang Ling with a smile, then took out a silver ingot weighing more than 20 taels from his sleeve, handed it to Xue Pan and said -

"Brother, with this little money, I can buy some tea for the master."

Jia Rui quickly declined, but Xue Pan stuffed the silver into Jia Rui's arms and said, "It's for the master, not for you!"

Xue Baochai looked back and said to Ying'er, the personal girl behind him: "Bring it here!"

Ying'er took out a stack of books from the bag she was carrying.

Jia Rui took a look and saw that it was the gift he gave to Xue Baochai——

"Thirteen Dynasties Strange Monsters" has just been printed by Chang'an Bookstore.

It was winter, and there was a stove in the house, and the charcoal fire was burning brightly.

With a smile on his face, Xue Baochai threw the set of "Thirteen Dynasties Strange Monsters" into the furnace!

Xiangling couldn't help but be stunned!

Jia Rui looked at the book burning in the stove with a calm expression.

But there is anger burning in my heart——

Xue Baochai's move was clearly a slap in the face!

Jia Rui really wanted to pounce on Xue Baochai and slap her twice on Xue Baochai's pink face!

Jia Rui silently recited "A small impatience will ruin a big plan" three times in his mind and did not move.

The smile on Xue Baochai's face became even brighter, and her voice was gentle——

"Uncle Rui, I'm leaving! If my brother doesn't treat you well, please bear with me!"

Although Xue Baochai was talking to Jia Rui, he didn't even look at Jia Rui!

After saying that, Xue Baochai and Ying'er turned around and left.

Xue Pan saw it——

My sister deliberately embarrassed Jia Rui!

As a treater, Xue Pan was also a little embarrassed.

Jia Rui secretly clenched his fists and thought——

"I will humiliate anyone who insults me!"
