Grandmother's expression did not change. She picked up the pink tea cup and took a sip. She smiled and shook her head. "Let's wait a little longer!"

Wait?

The bigger the child, the more determined he or she became. How could he or she be controlled?

It's not like I've never seen my father's room before.

With a delicate face and long, thin eyes, her figure was so slender that she didn't seem like someone who had ever had three children. A pair of red embroidered shoes, like a water caltrop, were stuck on the ground, while she stood on the steps cursing her maidservants with a charming air.

What kind of child could this kind of woman teach?

"But …" I opened my mouth to try to persuade my grandmother, but she cut me off with a cold tone.

"The youngest is already five years old. If your father didn't ask them to recognize him as their ancestor, would an old woman like me be able to force him? Moreover, if I accept her into the sect, how could your mother tolerate it? "

I sighed. It looked like my grandmother was still waiting for the one in Aunt Chen's stomach.

With this section, though my grandmother smiled, there was also a bit of unhappiness on her face. After dinner, she told me that she was tired and left me in the house. When I got back, I wrote a letter to Miss Wen, telling her that her grandmother had gone to persuade Lady Wen to accompany Master Wen to pick up the letter as soon as possible. I told Lan Li to find a proper person to deliver a box of pastries to Miss Wen tomorrow.

The next day was the 10th. I changed into a plain pearl button-neck sweater early in the morning. A moonlight dress brought Lan Lan, and I went to the shop to check up on the green bandits and mother Song. Grandmother took my hand and reminded me repeatedly, "After you check the account, come back quickly. Don't hold it against me if it's a small mistake. Just keep it safe on the surface!" This made Mother Du laugh, "Old Ancestor, are you trying to teach Miss how to do business or are you trying to teach her how to lose money?!"

I couldn't help but feel upset. Grandmother, you didn't know that even if you lost money, it wasn't because of your grandson or daughter!

"You old thing, what do you know!" Grandmother rebuked mother Du, repeatedly told mother Song to follow me well, then let me out the door.

Mother Song knew that I didn't like people standing around while I looked at my account book, just waiting outside the door like Lan Lan and Green Cock. I was looking through the accounts in boredom when the window opened and Shopkeeper Xiao's face appeared from behind me. In a flash, the ball of paper fell from his hand to the ground in front of me.

Hearing the low voices of Mother Song and Lan Ling outside the door, I went over to pick up the paper ball.

It was King Qi's handwriting.

"My royal sister is about to go with the Prince of Liao. I will arrive at White City in a day. The Xue Clan's matters should be handled quickly."

With just three sentences, he had described quite a few things.

There were two princesses that King Qi called his imperial sister. One of them was Princess Yuanzhen, who was thirteen years old, while the other was Princess Jingwen, who was only four years old. As the younger sister of King Qi, Princess Yuan Zhen was the first-in-line princess of the Qin family. Since they were going to marry each other, King Qi would naturally come to settle some matters first and discuss matters related to the marriage with King Liao. As for whether King Qi had come for the sake of marriage or for the sake of others, no one knew.

I couldn't help but think of that little girl dressed in gorgeous clothes who had an arrogant expression when she was a guest at the Xue family. Her few words made Miss Zhang lose her innocence and lose her face. At that time, her face was filled with joy. She had openly said that her elder brother, the emperor, had loved her wholeheartedly, but she didn't know if her elder brother, the emperor, was plotting against her or her elder brother, King Qi!

The Liao people were fierce and strong. When the grass horses were abundant, they would ask for a marriage alliance with the imperial officials. When they could not eat or drink in these desolate years, they would just directly attack the people of Jiufang city. Now that the young heavenly son had ascended to the throne, his methods were very mature. He could not help but choose to not attack with the will of the teenager, and he even married this daughter of the previous dynasty's empress, his own sister, into that bitter cold land. Forcefully a huge hat for the country and the people, regardless of whether you are a princess or a princess, the people who have earned the homage will sacrifice for the people.

However, such methods were always sinister. It was as if the woman in the inner chamber was scheming against him, causing him to be unable to show his face.

For such a feminine youth to run into such a shrewd person like Miss Xue, who knew what sort of tricks he would play. No wonder King Qi was in such a rush to change hands!

It's just that he left it to me, and it's too small a maneuver.

Shouldn't they seek out the emperor's imperial palace or send a message to the officials? What's the use of giving me a merchant's daughter who grew up in the inner chamber!

It seemed like the number of people King Qi could use was too few, which was why he made such a comeback!

After reading the note, I knew that this wasn't the time to ponder over this matter. I removed the candlestick and burned the slip of paper, but still continued to flip through the account book as if nothing had happened.

To earn two hundred silver taels every month, and to earn two thousand and four hundred silver taels every year, what was there to check?

When I returned home at night, my grandmother whispered to me, "Your shop has just opened, so it's hard to avoid losing some money. How much money do you need from my grandmother to make it up to you?" It made my nose sour and I almost cried. If grandmother knew my business was a thing on the edge of the blade, I do not know how to be afraid.

As he lay in bed, he couldn't come up with a good idea to replace King Qi. He could only find out the intentions of Miss Xue. If she had feelings for King Qi, she could make use of them.

The next morning I wrote a letter asking Miss Jiang to give a party, and told her that she would not be intimate with them, but that it would be worthwhile to call them all in for a party, and that it would not be in vain for them to know each other, and to count it as the last gathering before her marriage. In the afternoon, Miss Jiang gave me a reply. She kindly agreed to my request, praising me for being considerate and considerate. I thought right, but didn't specify the time. It could be that I was still busy preparing for marriage today.

Eldest Miss Jiang didn't tell me that it wouldn't be good for me to come knocking on her door, so I had to put this matter aside for now and peacefully stay at home to accompany my grandmother while she talked and did some needlework and read idle books.

Early in the morning, Mother Zhou brought Zhou to knock my head against the screen. I smiled and instructed Lan Lian to bring out the two twenty taels of Yinzi, who had already prepared everything, and gave it to him: "Although the money is not much, but I did reward you with my kind intentions. In the end, old lady gave you sixty taels, so I won't be able to pass!"

"Miss, where do you say that?" Zhou's mother kowtowed again and again. "The betrothal gifts are arranged neatly with the help of the young mistress."

I smiled slightly and didn't answer her. Instead, I asked the man who was kneeling by her side and wearing red clothes, "Do you have any plans for marriage?"

"Servant, but I'm listening to Miss's orders." The man's voice was deep and steady.

"I'm missing an errand to run errands outside. How about you try it?" I touched the pattern on my sleeve inch by inch as I looked at the figure standing outside the screen.

Mommy Zhou's small voice could be heard even on the screen.

One was an apprentice in the shop, the other was a servant of the young mistress.

However, things were never something that could be distinguished just by looking at the surface!

Then, Zhou Baimu reprimanded his mother in a low voice before replying respectfully, "This servant is naturally willing!"

"Then tell your wife to come speak to me in three days!" I smiled as I served tea.

Three days later, the newbie returned to the manor to thank his grandmother.

"Hurry up and go! "Don't let the bride wait too long!"

Even when Zhou Baimu pulled his mother away, he could still hear her low grumbling.

"Why would you feel wronged when you work for the little miss?"

Because Lu Kui was her sister-in-law, he let her take the day off yesterday and let her go home to wait. Lan Mu was the one who was responsible for pouring the tea, and when she heard that Zhou's mother was unwilling, she couldn't help but complain a little.

"Why are you talking so much!" I gave her a smirk and hurried her off to work.

It was a pair of moons. The red embroidery had already been made for the women. I came over in the afternoon when I was in my own courtyard. I sat on a small Wooden Pellet in the outer room and waited for me.

At that time, I had just woken up from my nap, and it took me an hour to wash up and go out to see her. Her face, which had been twisted by a string, was tender and even. Her thick hair was tied up into a bun as she sat there with a smile. There was not a single trace of impetuousness on her face. Upon seeing me walk out, he welcomed me with a smile. Every single movement of his carried a dignified elegance.

"I see that Zhou Quan's character is a bit unworthy!" I turned my head and smiled as I made fun of LanLingyun and the Green Bandits.

Originally, I said that I would let Lu Qu follow her sister-in-law when I return, but after the second day of marriage, Lu Qu had already returned. Now, he was standing behind me and giggling as he looked at her.

"Miss is right, she actually let my brother pick up a big bargain!" Lu Kou covered his mouth with the handkerchief and looked at the double embroidery with a mocking expression.

Twin Embroidery's face was flushed, and she gave her sister-in-law a reproachful look.

"Do you two have any plans?" After hearing my question, I stood up in front of him at a moderate pace. "Miss, this servant has already agreed that I was originally a girl in an aunt's room, but now that Aunt is four months pregnant, this servant has always known about her nature. If there was a change in her personality, even if I were to die, I would still feel guilty about it, so I might as well wait for Aunt to give birth before making my plans. As for the servant man, he was originally just a small apprentice in the shop. Since the young miss was willing, he naturally had to seek a way out with the young miss. "

Not a shred less than what I wanted!

Over here I want to know what's going on in Aunt Chen's house, over there I want a steady and steady person to work for me.

I don't know if it was coincidentally or if they saw through my thoughts, but they actually coincided with my thoughts.

"It's so great!" I smiled and nodded. "When do you think Zhou Bailu will be able to come to me?"

I think five days is enough time to pack my things."

What would take five days to pack?
