After becoming the villain's eldest sister, I take charge of the whole family

Xie Boyuan paused.

I tentatively asked in my heart, "What will happen if I am rude?"

He's poor, okay?

Before setting off, his total assets amounted to only ten taels of silver, and the round-trip fare cost him three taels. Of course, this was because the teacher provided accommodation and he rented a good boat.

Promised to buy gifts for the three unlucky brothers.

It cost half a tael of silver.

The gifts for my eldest sister, second sister, youngest sister and niece cost two taels of silver.

There are still four taels of silver and five hundred coins left.

After the results of the college entrance examination came out, he attended a party with several other candidates from the same exam and spent two taels of silver on the food and drinks.

now.

All that was left in his hand was two taels of silver and five hundred coins.

If he gives gifts to Uncle Liu, Aunt Zhou, and Liu Rushuang, how much money will he have left?

Xie Linghe had no idea of ​​what was going on in Xie Boyuan's mind. He gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly: You miser, why don't you just be so stingy!

Many words flashed through her mind, and finally turned into one sentence: "Haha."

Xie Boyuan: "What does this mean?"

"Count down to three breaths, and the punishment begins: three, two..."

"wait--!"

Xie Boyuan's eyes widened, and the next moment, he jumped up in pain: "Ouch~"

"I'll buy!"

"I'll go buy it right now, ancestor, please don't shock me."

Xie Linghe had originally intended to shock him, but upon hearing this, he said, "The punishment is complete!"

Xie Boyuan looked like he had survived a disaster.

At this time.

Butler Liu's voice rang out from behind: "Master Xie, are you here to see the master, mistress, and daughter? Why don't you come in..."

Xie Boyuan glanced at him.

Without saying a word, he ran away.

"Hey!"

Butler Liu reached out and chased after him for a few steps, but he couldn't catch up and the man was gone.

He was stunned for a long time.

His brows furrowed. "What do you mean? Is Xie Boyuan really going to break off the engagement with my family?!"

This scene.

All of this fell into Xie Linghe's eyes.

she:"……"

Where did this fool come from?!

Destroy it.

Fortunately, I didn’t have such a son-in-law/husband, otherwise I would be so angry that I would die!

and many more.

I am his sister.

Sister.

It doesn't seem to be getting any better?

Xie Linghe: My fists are hard.

She murmured in a voice only she could hear: "Reformation is far from enough, punishment must be added. Even if studying is tiring, you can't slack off!"

Look towards Xie Boyuan.

He entered a jewelry store, and the shopkeeper immediately came forward and said, "Sir, who are you buying a gift for? I'd like to give you some advice."

Xie Boyuan thought for a moment and said, "A young girl of 28." He paused and added, "Her temperament is like a winter plum blossom."

The shopkeeper suddenly understood and said with a smile, "Are you buying it for your sweetheart?"

Xie Boyuan frowned slightly, subconsciously wanting to explain, but felt it was unnecessary and remained silent.

The shopkeeper searched for a while and picked one up. "How about this wintersweet gilded jade hairpin?"

Xie Boyuan took one look and waved his hand.

The shopkeeper didn't get angry and picked up a few more. They were all made of jade, gold, or gemstones...

Xie Boyuan rejected them one by one.

The shopkeeper seemed to have noticed something. His smile faded, but he didn't turn his face away. He picked up a hairpin and said, "Sir, what do you think of this silver hairpin with a winter plum blossom pattern? It only costs eight hundred coins."

Xie Boyuan took a closer look.

"Well, that's it."

The shopkeeper smiled faintly: No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.

Pay in one hand and deliver in one hand.

Xie Boyuan calmly turned around and walked out of the jewelry shop, immediately revealing a heartbroken expression.

Sure enough, girls are troublesome~

Xie Linghe shook his head in amusement.

I feel sad now, but what about the times when you feel sad in the future?

When she thought of this, Xie Boyuan felt a chill on his back.

I muttered to myself: Why do I always feel a chill down my spine during this period of time?

Bought a gift for Liu Rushuang.

Xie Boyuan went to the tavern again and ordered a pot of good wine, and then bought a bunch of magnolia flowers on the roadside.

Xie Linghe saw this and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Huh, you're quite good at it~"

The Liu family is rich.

Xie Boyuan was short of money and could not afford expensive gifts even if he spent all his money, so the thought was what mattered most.

……

Willow house.

When Butler Liu saw the man who had left and returned, he was shocked and surprised: "Master Xie, what are you doing..."

When Xie Boyuan wanted to pretend, he was always elegant and graceful. He said in a gentle and polite manner: "Housekeeper Liu, I just forgot to prepare a gift for my uncle and aunt. I didn't reply to you. I am sorry for that."

Butler Liu waved his hands quickly: "Thank you, sir, for your courtesy."

"The little one can't bear it."

Xie Boyuan smiled and handed the things over: "This wine and magnolia flowers, please trouble Butler Liu."

Butler Liu took it and smiled brightly: "Mr. Liu, the master has been talking about you for several days. I will take you to the study to see the master. He will definitely be happy to see you."

Fortunately, I resisted the urge to inform the master.

He said that he would not make a mistake. Xie Boyuan was not Chen Shimei. He would not turn his back on people once he became rich!

On the road.

Housekeeper Liu called a little maidservant and said, "Xiaolu, this is a gift from the future son-in-law to the lady. Please hand it to the lady quickly."

Xiaolu hurriedly said, "Yes."

Butler Liu warned: "Be careful, don't break it."

Xiaolu answered solemnly.

aside.

When Xie Boyuan saw Butler Liu's performance, he couldn't help but smile.

"Thank you, Master. Let's go."

Xie Boyuan nodded.

The study door was half-open, and Butler Liu pushed it open and walked in: "Master!"

Liu Sanwan frowned.

It's been hot these days and he's very irritable!

Butler Liu was delighted: "Thank you, Master, for coming to see you and bringing you some good wine."

Liu Sanwan was stunned.

Then he laughed out loud: "Hahaha, nephew, come in quickly."

Xie Boyuan bowed respectfully: "Uncle."

Liu Sanwan: "Sit down!"

Then he looked at Butler Liu: "Where's the wine?"

Butler Liu handed it over immediately.

Liu Sanwan immediately hid under the desk and said to the two of them mysteriously, "You are not allowed to tell the Madam, understand?"

"If my wife knew, I wouldn't be able to drink a drop of wine."

talking.

He stood up and patted Xie Boyuan's arm: "My dear nephew, you really care about your uncle Liu."

Xie Boyuan smiled and said with concern, "Auntie doesn't allow you to drink because she's worried about your health. Please don't drink too much, or it will be my fault."

Liu Sanwan said firmly: "Don't worry!"

After a pause, he laughed: "I'm still waiting to drink the Heytea you and Rushuang made!"

Xie Boyuan replied: "It will definitely be no problem."

Hear the words.

Liu Sanwan's eyes lit up and his smile widened: "Bo Yuan, you are now a famous person in our Changhai Town, the first in the court case, it has been many years since you have appeared."

"Everyone says you are a guaranteed candidate for the Juren title."

Xie Boyuan waved his hand: "I'm still a long way off~"

The systematic plan only covered the scholar aspect, and he hadn't touched the juren aspect yet. He knew his own worth.

Liu Sanwan thought he was being modest and didn't continue the conversation. Instead, he asked, "Bo Yuan, I heard that Master Liu wants to take you as his disciple, is that right?"

Xie Boyuan was slightly surprised: "Uncle also knows?"

"Of course, Master Liu invited many friends this time, so basically everyone in the town knows what they need to know."

"And uncle?"
