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

In the evening, Xu Rongrong returned to Zhuxiang Yayuan.

Before the carriage stabilized, a voice that seemed a little distant came from outside: "Sister Rong."

Xu Rongrong's eyebrows jumped.

Sure enough, when she opened the car door, she saw Xu Chaoqian, wearing navy blue robes and dark complexion, standing in front of the car.

The driver was Wu Ping, who came after Xu Rongrong arrived at Zhuxiang Yayuan. Seeing that the carriage was stopped, he asked: "Who are you? Dare to stop the carriage of the Lord of Pingan County?!"

Xu Chaoqian wanted to stage a drama about his father missing his daughter, but this question stuck in his throat: "..."

"I am her father! Xu Chaoqian, the co-president of Weizhou Prefecture on the Longyou Road!"

It was this time that the Weizhou Prefecture magistrate Xu Chaoqian was sent to the northwest Longyou Road to serve as an official. Although he was in the sixth rank, which was two levels higher than in Beijing... But who didn't know that this was an effective promotion method.

He thought that after revealing his identity, the blind coachman would quickly apologize to him, but he didn't expect that Wu Ping's first reaction was to look back at his county owner to confirm his identity.

Seeing Xu Rongrong nod, he jumped out of the carriage and said in a nonchalant manner: "I've met the master."

Xu Chaoqian was so angry that he almost jumped, but after thinking of the purpose of coming, he suppressed it. He ignored the servant who was driving the car, only looked at Xu Rongrong, his eyes were red: "Sister Rong... Daddy misses you so much... I’ll come see you as soon as I get back to Beijing.”

Xu Rongrong sneered in her heart. As far as she knew, Xu Chaoqian returned to Beijing in the afternoon the day before yesterday, which was completely inconsistent with the time he said.

However, she didn't reveal it. With Wu Ping's support, Yingying stepped out of the carriage and greeted him: "It's only been more than two months since we last met. How can my father be so thin?"

The Xu Chaoqian in front of him had dark skin and chapped lips... He still had the smooth and smooth look he had when he was in Beijing.

"It's my first time as a father to go to the northwest. I'm a bit acclimatized, but more importantly it's because I miss you, Sister Rong..."

Xu Rongrong's eyelids twitched twice.

To be able to speak like this, it seems that Xu Chaoqian came to ask for a lot today.

But since he was her biological father after all, she had no reason to turn him away, so she invited him in.

This was Xu Chaoqian's first time approaching Zhuxiang Yayuan. Everyone who was an official in Beijing knew the name of this house. Seeing that his daughter had been living here since she left Xu Mansion, he felt sour in his heart. !

The northwest is bitterly cold and windy and sandy, but the people's livelihood is still very tough. Since he became the magistrate of Weizhou Prefecture, he has been criticized by the local people a lot.

Ever since he studied with He's father, had he ever suffered such hardship?

Although Mrs. He was not rich, her heart was devoted to her, and she took good care of her in life. Although Mrs. Liu later was not as obedient as Mr. He, she was a prosperous husband!He was promoted all the way to become a Beijing official. Although he had not been promoted for ten years, his life in Beijing was comfortable after all. How could he be as miserable as he had been in the past two months?

Not only was the road bumpy, but the food was also very unaccustomed to me!His only thought was that Xu Rongrong would get married as soon as possible so that he could pick her up and return to the capital, so he counted the days on his fingers for her to get married all day long.

Weizhou was fifteen days away from Beijing. He tried every means to ask for leave from Fengfeng and rushed back early. However, it was only when he returned to the Xu Mansion that he realized that life in the mansion had turned out like this!

Before he left Beijing, he wanted his second daughter, Xu Yaoyao, to collect 1000 taels of silver from the Xu Liu family's dowry. However, his second daughter complained that she was poor and only gave him 500 taels before leaving. After he arrived in Weizhou, he took care of his superiors and colleagues. It didn't take long for him to run out of money.

He originally wanted to ask Xu Yaoyao for some when he returned home, but he didn't expect that half of the servants in the mansion had been sold. Even the reception banquet prepared for him the night before yesterday only had one meat dish!

Who would believe that a dignified fifth-rank official could be so poor?

But he asked anxiously, and the second daughter directly threw out the account book and let him see it for himself.

Now that there is no business in the shop, the only income is his salary, but he is used to spending a lot of money, and the salary expenditure is far from enough for his squandering over the years.

Xu Liu's dowry is in the hands of her second daughter. Although there are many items, they are all big items. If she sells them as a pawn, what will her colleagues think of her?It's already embarrassing for him to be sent out. If people know that he wants to pawn his woman's dowry to make a living, how will he go out to meet people in the future?

The only one who can move is Zhuangzi...

But Xu Minmin lives inside.

Because she angered her eldest daughter Xu Rongrong, she was sent to Zhuangzi by himself. Now that the eldest daughter is the head of the county, he has no reason to let the third daughter back at this time. But if the third daughter doesn't come back... Zhuangzi can't free her up!

After thinking about it, the only way out is to come to the eldest daughter!

He originally wanted to show off his father's money, so he sent someone to Zhuxiang Yayuan early in the morning to invite Xu Rongrong back home, but who knew that Xu Rongrong actually went out!

And the day is almost over, and no one has come back yet.

The cold and withered look of the Xu Mansion made him upset, and the account books thrown by Xu Yaoyao gave him a headache, not to mention the constant fear that he would return to the northwest after his eldest daughter got married...

He couldn't wait any longer and had to come in person!

I followed Xu Rongrong into the front hall, and after I sat down, I saw an unfamiliar and wealthy grandma stepping forward to say hello.

"My slave, Mrs. Zheng Xiao, would like to say hello to the master." Aunt Xiao lowered her head and said.

Seeing this, Xu Chaoqian couldn't help but lean back in his chair and waved his hand: "Get up and serve some good tea."

Aunt Xiao responded: "Yes."

Soon, tea was brought.

Although Aunt Xiao had never seen Xu Chaoqian's character, she had heard it mentioned by Wen Yao and Luo Shu to some extent, so what she brought today was ordinary tea for guests, gifts from the palace and tribute tea from the Marquis. She didn't give any.

What if the master feels better after drinking and opens his mouth to leave, then will the county owner give it to him or not?

But even this kind of tea attracted Xu Chaoqian's repeated admiration.

He couldn't wait to take a sip: The eldest daughter still feels comfortable here!

Even the mother-in-law looks more impressive than the people in the house.

"Father has worked hard, but it has only been more than two months, and he has been so exhausted... My daughter felt very distressed when she saw it. Father must take care of his body when he is away from home." Xu Rongrong looked concerned.

Her words really spoke to Xu Chaoqian's heart. He didn't care whether the eldest daughter was being polite or not, so she described in detail what she had experienced in the past two months - how rough the food was, how tough the people were, and how tough the people were. How difficult it is to deal with, how difficult it is for the people in the government office to deal with, etc.

When he rambled on about all the trivial things, Aunt Xiao frowned as she listened: How could the father of the County Lord be so incompetent?After all, after being an official for so many years, why can’t I handle these little things well?

It can be seen that being an official... seems to be easier than being a housekeeper.

Aunt Xiao looked disgusted, while Xu Rongrong listened with great interest.

While she was scouting Xu Chaoqian, she nodded hurriedly:

"Father has worked really hard."

"When my daughter heard this, she felt sorry for her father."

"How dare they do this?"

"..."

The perfunctoriness was palpable, but Xu Chaoqian couldn't see it at all.
