The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

When Xu Rongrong's carriage turned into the street where Xu's mansion was located, a group of children were noisily building snowmen on the street.

Each of them was dressed in plump clothes, almost blending in with those chubby snowmen.

Xu Rongrong looked at it with a look of envy on the corner of her mouth.

In her two lifetimes, she had only two girls, Wen Yao and Luo Shu, by her side. She had no friends at all. Even if she played around in the winter, it was only superficial. It was impossible to build a snowman as tall as a person.

It is even less possible to be like these children, chasing and laughing wantonly and having snowball fights in the streets and alleys.

She looked fascinated and told the coachman: "Go slower, don't hit them."

Mu Rong had already got out of her car before entering the city, and the driver was changed from Mu Ai to an ordinary driver.

But Mu Rong did not go far. He rode his horse and never left her side.

At this moment, looking at the look of envy on her fair cheeks through the car window, his heart ached slightly:

His little girl, the daughter of a sixth-rank official, and the family member of a first-rank military marquis, do they even envy these common happiness that ordinary people have?

How did she get here in Xu Mansion these years?

While he was dazed, Xu Rongrong knocked on the car window to wake him up from his thoughts.

He rode closer and said, "But you feel uncomfortable?"

Xu Rongrong shook her head. She pointed at the dilapidated carriage not far behind: "What should I do with that person?"

The people in the carriage were in a hurry. They were traveling in a hurry, but the other carriages were fine.The car he was imprisoned in was old and dilapidated, causing him to vomit repeatedly and making the car stink.

Mu Rong waited until before entering the city. In order not to attract the attention of others, he ordered someone to wash the carriage with water from the inside to the outside, and then... threw him in.

Nowadays, the inside of the carriage is clean, but in this freezing season, it is bone-chilling.The remaining water in the cleaning carriage condensed into ice, almost freezing his whole body.

Fortunately, his mouth was blocked and all his whining was swallowed into his stomach.

Mu Rong had already made arrangements for Chunwang, and wanted to go back home to talk about it. But when he saw her asking about it, he said: "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the court will be sealed. Your Majesty will definitely not have the intention to investigate in detail at this time. Why don't you lock him up first?" Enter the dungeon of the Marquis' Mansion, and after the seal is opened in the court hall on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will go back to the palace to meet with His Majesty to explain the case."

Xu Rongrong nodded, but when she heard that Mu Rong was going to report the case in person, she hesitated: "The person involved behind this matter... is extraordinary. It's better for me to beat the drum."

When Mu Rong heard this, his eyes brightened slightly: Is his little girl afraid that this matter will affect him?

His heart warmed up, and he resisted the urge to rub her forehead, and said with a smile: "No need. I will handle it properly, and I will not implicate myself. In addition, I will also handle the affairs of the villagers in Yujia Village. I’ll help you get it done one by one.”

He paused: "However, there is another thing at the moment."

After saying that, he waved behind him, and a dark, long, narrow, and somewhat strange carriage slowly approached.

In fact, before entering the city, Xu Rongrong had already seen this strange carriage that suddenly appeared, but he could not bear to ask. When he saw the carriage driving aside, he asked, "What's in the carriage?"

Mu Rong looked at her with a smile: "Have you forgotten the excuse for leaving Beijing this time? What's inside is the result."

Xu Rongrong was shocked when he heard this: "You..."

Mu Rong nodded.

……

In front of the Xu Mansion, Butler Xu and Luo Shu, who had received the letter, were waiting in front of the door early.

They looked at Xu Rongrong's three carriages from a distance, and a dark-colored carriage from the maternal family slowly drove over.

The carriage stopped in front of the door, and Butler Xu quickly ordered the boy to put up a wooden stool.

Xu Rongrong walked down with Wen Yao's help.

After not seeing her for several months, she seemed to have become calmer, and Luo Shu was a little afraid to recognize her.

"Miss, you are back! I thought you were going to leave me behind."

A trace of narrowness flashed in Xu Rongrong's eyes: "That's what I thought originally, but I also feel that as the county lord, with only one girl by your side, the ostentation is not enough, so I have to come back to pick you up."

When Luo Shu heard this, his eyes filled with tears opened wide: "Miss... do you think it's true?"

Xu Rongrong couldn't help laughing.

Seeing the young lady making fun of him, Luo Shu wiped away his tears. He thought the young lady was calm just now, but now she seemed even more childish than before!

She stamped her feet angrily: "Why did the young lady tease the slave as soon as she came back!"

The two people here were talking. Wen Yao glanced at the situation in front of the door and frowned: "Why are you two alone?"

Not to mention the county lord returning to the mansion, even the eldest lady of the mansion should not have only a few people waiting in front of the door to greet her after returning from such a long absence.

Butler Xu coughed twice and said, "The master hasn't gone on duty yet. The second lady caught a cold today, so she didn't come out to greet her."

"What about the other housekeepers and wives?"

"Because the second young lady is ill, everyone is busy asking the doctor to prepare the medicine...I accidentally missed it."

Butler Xu also looked embarrassed when he spoke.

Xu Rongrong knew that there was something strange in it, so he stopped Wen Yao who was about to attack and ordered: "Butler Xu, please go to the Ministry of Industry and tell your father that I have something important to discuss with him."

Butler Xu didn't dare to delay, so he quickly grabbed a car and set off.

……

On the way back to Wutong Courtyard, one must pass by Baicui Courtyard where Xu Yaoyao lived.

As soon as he got close to the door, he could smell the strong smell of medicine coming from inside. Xu Rongrong frowned: "Are you really sick?"

Luo Shu snorted coldly: "How can you not! The second young lady got some kind of opportunity recently and actually got into the relationship with the granddaughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. Yesterday she went to the garden with others. This morning I received the news that you will be returning home in the afternoon. The son fell ill."

Pretending to be sick is just to avoid asking for permission.

But...the granddaughter of the Minister of Tohoku?Couldn't she be Cheng Jintong, the fourth prince's concubine in her previous life?

Xu Rongrong was a little strange. She had never heard of any interaction between these two people in her previous life.

What's more... Cheng Jintong was Lin Jiaoyue's handkerchief. When they were in the hunting palace, she and Lin Jiaoyue came to ridicule him. How come she is now in contact with Xu Yaoyao?

Could it be that……

An enemy of an enemy is a friend?

Xu Rongrong said: "Keep an eye on these two people."

While the master and servants were talking, Xu Chaoqian limped back from outside.

Now his legs and feet can move around freely, but they are a little uncomfortable and sore even on cloudy and rainy days.

Today, he could have used the snowy weather to avoid going to work due to leg pain, but when he thought that if he didn't leave, he would have to greet the daughter of the county head at the door, he felt that he couldn't save his face, so he reluctantly went on duty.

Before he stepped into the gate of Wutong Courtyard, he shouted loudly: "Oh... Sister Rong is back. If my father hadn't been so busy today, I would have gone to the city gate to welcome you back home."

Xu Rongrong rolled her eyes in her heart, but there was a hint of gratitude on her face: "What if the laboring father really went to pick her up in person? Wouldn't my daughter have committed a great crime of unfilial piety?"

Xu Chaoqian said hurriedly: "It's natural for you and my daughter to depend on each other for life. It's a pity that my father can't leave today."

After saying that, he paused and said, "Sister Rong, what's the matter with your father?"

Xu Rongrong said seriously: "It's the whereabouts of Madam."

In the back room where the carriage came in and out, Xu Chaoqian saw the long and dark carriage, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Xu Liu has actually...?"

Xu Rongrong nodded. Originally, her plan was to tell Xu Chaoqian that when she went south, she heard that Xu Liu's family was in a flood, so that they could die accordingly, but she didn't expect that Mu Rong actually prepared Xu Liu's body.

While she was surprised, there was also a hint of gratitude in her heart.

However, what she didn't expect was that Xu Chaoqian didn't even look at the coffin in the carriage, and just said:

"Throw it away."
