Shenhao: The little widow became the richest woman in Beijing

Xue Qing went out to do errands early in the morning, and now he came back and wanted to come over to see her. As soon as he got here, he heard Bai Xueru making a noise in front of the main door.

Xue Qing looked at the red betrothal gifts piled up in front of him. The matchmaker continued to knock on the door, but the courtyard door was tightly closed.

Xue Qing frowned and walked forward, asking in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

"Oh, this girl is really ignorant. I proposed marriage to her and brought her to the prince's palace to enjoy the blessings of being a concubine. She refused to go and locked me out. Now I'm going to tell you how to explain it when I go back."

The matchmaker twisted her handkerchief and wiped her forehead with dissatisfaction on her face, "Don't get in the way here. I'll wait here for a while. Maybe she will think of such a good thing and get on the sedan chair and go back with me."

Xue Qing frowned and said in a firm and dissatisfied voice, "She is not ignorant. Please be careful with your words. She will not be a concubine." Even the prince is not worthy of having her as a concubine.

She originally wanted to say that she was in love with him, but she didn't know if she wanted others to know. Now that she didn't agree to propose marriage to him, he couldn't ruin her reputation.

The matchmaker sneered, "She said the same thing, and she also said she was infertile. I don't know whether it was true or not."

Xue Qing ignored her words and said coldly, "The prince cannot rob the daughter of the people by force. It is useless for you to stay here. It is better to leave as soon as possible. These streets and alleys are full of people. The longer you stay here, the more embarrassing you will be." The prince’s face, do you think he will punish you?”

"The royal family cares most about reputation. Do you want to spread the news about this woman's rejection of the prince to the streets? I think you don't want to live anymore."

"This," the matchmaker's eyes were a little tangled.

Xue Qing looked straight at the matchmaker and said in a louder voice, "Are you trying to accuse the prince of robbing a commoner's daughter to lose his support?"

The matchmaker's heart was trembling. She was just here to help someone make some money, how could she dare to be charged with such a serious crime.

If it was really because of this incident that the third prince was involved in robbing a common girl, I am afraid that the third prince would take his anger out on himself.

Even if he didn't get it, the third prince's request to marry a widow was rejected. The longer he delayed, the more people knew about it. Where was the royal dignity? Naturally, I blame myself for not doing things well and vent my anger on myself.

Is this job so difficult? I couldn't help but feel afraid, so I went back and told the third prince that she had infertility. Maybe the third prince himself didn't want her.

The matchmaker thought for a moment following Xue Qing's words, then turned to the crowd and the sedan and said, "Let's go back first."

Xue Qing looked at the matchmaker's leaving figure with a heavy gaze, "Prince?" How can I protect her better? His eyes were thoughtful.

Looking back at the courtyard door, my eyes hurt, infertility? So she doesn’t want to get married. Is this the reason?

Raising his hand and knocking on the courtyard door, Butler Fang watched from the crack of the door as those people left. It was Mr. Xue who knocked on the door. He immediately opened the door with a smile on his face, "Mr. Xue, you are here."

"The master is in a bad mood. You are a sensible person and you will definitely know how to make the master feel comfortable. Please come in quickly."

When Xue Qing heard that Bai Xueru was in a bad mood, he couldn't help but speed up his steps.

Butler Fang led Xue Qing towards the study. Thinking of Bai Xueru's heavy eyes when she closed the door before, she thought that the master must be unhappy.

Little did he know that Bai Xueru was just thinking about the affairs between the third prince and Zhou Xuanyin.

In the study,

Bai Xueru was drawing something lazily, when there was a knock on the door, and Butler Fang's cautious voice came. He told everything about what happened outside the courtyard gate, informed the matchmaker that she had left, and then said:

"Master, Mr. Xue is here, do you want to see him? He is now outside the inner courtyard gate."

Bai Xueru lowered her head and looked at the turtle drawn on her rice paper. On it was written the three characters "Zhou Xuanyin". It was this person who caused the trouble of the third prince to her.

Listening to what was said outside, he balled up the paper in his hand and threw it away, giving instructions.

"Let him in!"

"Yes!" Steward Fang bowed and stepped back, bringing Xue Qing over and into the study.

Xue Qing walked in and looked at the woman at the desk over there. The housekeeper said that she was in a bad mood. What should he do to make her feel better?

Bai Xueru's eyebrows moved slightly. The housekeeper said that he was in a bad mood. Did he want to comfort him?

He couldn't help but curl his lips secretly, Butler Fang finally had something to use for his random thoughts all day long, and he really deserves a reward.

Bai Xueru seemed to have a depressed look on her face. She glanced at the man in front of her, then lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips slightly.

But a faint smile could be seen in the woman's lowered eyelashes. She wanted to see how he would comfort her with his clumsy appearance.

Xue Qing frowned when he saw the woman in front of him, feeling secretly distressed. Was she sad because she thought about her infertility? How could she say she didn't care? Would it make her sad again after mentioning it.

Bai Xueru's eyes were slightly stunned. That was just nonsense, but he actually took it seriously.

Don't you care? Even if you don't have children, are you still willing to accompany yourself like this?

Xue Qing stepped forward, his resolute eyes full of gentleness, gently took Bai Xueru's hand, squatted down, and looked at her sincerely,

"Don't worry about others, you are always the best. You are enough for me." Being by her side is already a gift from fate. I don't want to ask for too much, and it doesn't matter if I don't have children.

Bai Xueru lowered her head to look at the man's focused eyes, her eyes moved slightly. He did not stand and talk to her, but chose this posture to be close to her and she could see him without raising her head. Her eyes were so sincere and comforting. Hold yourself,

I heard that he had too many thoughts in his mind and said that he didn't want children, but he was afraid that he would be even sadder if he mentioned this, so in the end he just said that it was enough for him to have himself.

A smile appeared on Bai Xueru's lips. Being able to receive such sincere and passionate love from someone was not considered a gift to her!

Xue Qing looked at the woman's forced smile and raised his hand to stroke the hair on her temples, "Would you like to go out to play?"

Bai Xueru looked confused, "Where are you going?"

"I'll accompany you wherever you want. Go swimming in the lake? Fly a kite? Pick flowers? Eat delicious food? Watch a sideshow?"

Bai Xueru smiled softly. Did he want to take him to relax?

Xue Qing added, "It's okay to go shopping. I see that you don't wear rouge on weekdays. Do you like the rouge and gouache ones? Can I buy them for you?"

But then I thought that she must have all these, so she lowered her eyes and said, "Do you have any snacks you want to eat? Can I make them for you?"

I remember that she must be very fond of food. In the small courtyard before, I didn't have the opportunity to cook better for her.

Bai Xueru raised the corners of her lips, "I do have something I want to eat right now."

"What? I'm going to do it now."

"Come closer and I'll tell you!" Bai Xueru said seriously.
