I believe the answer is:

untroubled

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'blithe' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'daughter pursuing nut about money' is the wordplay.
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'pursuing' says to put letters next to each other.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'money' becomes 'rouble' (I've seen this before).
'nut' anagrammed gives 'unt'.
'unt'+'rouble'='untrouble'
'd' after 'untrouble' is 'UNTROUBLED'.

Can you help me to learn more?
