Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

Before dark, Xing'er handed the household keys and account books to He Shulan and turned to leave.

He Shulan stopped him and said, "Don't be in such a hurry to leave. Send the account book to me. We have to check it clearly. Who will be responsible if something goes wrong in the future?"

Xing'er was furious, but she didn't dare to refute. After all, her aunt was not very reliable, so she just stood aside obediently.

He Shulan opened the account book and looked carefully at the accounts recorded in it. Her clear white fingers danced on the abacus, and crackling sounds echoed in the room.

The daily and monthly expenses and income were written down clearly. She quickly calculated all the accounts and checked them all, and there were no problems.

Guessing that the old lady had taken the money Li Wanrong had left in her room, Li Wanrong did not dare to lie again: "There is no problem with the account, you can leave."

Xing'er's face was full of displeasure. He Shulan's careful checking of the accounts was undoubtedly an insult to Aunt Li. She dared not speak out to express her dissatisfaction: "Yes, I'll take my leave first." After returning to the yard, she told Li Wanrong about He Shulan's checking of the accounts.

Li Wanrong was very angry, but she could do nothing about it, because He Shulan was right to do so, and she could not go looking for trouble: "It is not me, He Shulan, who is in charge of the Prince's Mansion now. No matter how unhappy I am, I can only endure it."

Now that Li Wanrong no longer has the power to run the household, she will be ignored by the servants in the mansion: "Auntie Li, you can't lose the favor of the prince again, otherwise, your life in the mansion will be difficult."

"No," Li Wanrong replied firmly. The prince will not stop loving me. He promised me that he will treat me well for the rest of my life."

Xing'er moved her lips, and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. The things that cannot be trusted most in this world are men's words.

……

As the days passed, Li Wanrong had nothing to do in the mansion every day. She was still thinking about the restaurant in the suburbs, so she found the prince and said, "The bandit issue has been resolved, but I still want to continue running the restaurant in the suburbs."

The prince was also reluctant to leave. The income of the restaurant some time ago was several times that of all the shops in the capital city. He also wanted to continue running the restaurant. If the bandits knew that the restaurant was still in business, they would definitely come to rob it again. It would be a small matter if the money was gone, but it would be really gone if the people were gone. "Don't worry about the restaurant in the suburbs anymore. I won't agree to it."

"It's because of the bandits in Qiuyun Mountain that you didn't agree to let me continue to run the restaurant. Last time, those bandits came too suddenly and we were not prepared, so they took advantage of us. This time, just send more soldiers to guard the restaurant."

After this experience, the prince did not listen to Li Wanrong. After thinking it over, he felt that the restaurant outside the capital could not continue to operate: "The soldiers in the capital are no match for those bandits. If we continue to operate the restaurant, no matter how much money we make, it will be robbed. Therefore, we should not open the restaurant, and you don't have to bother with it anymore. Every month, in addition to the money the mansion gives you, I will give you an extra sum of money. You can live a stable life in the mansion in the future."

Li Wanrong, who was used to freedom, didn't want to be a canary being kept: "If I don't want to open a restaurant in the suburbs, then I can open one in the capital city!"

The prince did not want to continue this topic: "You know, there is no place big enough for you to open a restaurant in the capital, so let's end this topic here." After saying that, he ignored Li Wanrong and left the yard.

Li Wanrong was so angry that she stamped her feet on the spot, but she was helpless.

……

He Shulan received an invitation from the royal family, inviting people from the Prince's Mansion to the palace for a banquet. To her surprise, Li Wanrong was also invited.

She handed the invitation to Chun Xia: "Send it to Li Wanrong and ask her to prepare her clothes in advance, so as not to lose etiquette after entering the palace."

"Does Aunt Li still have any manners? She is simply a heretic," Chunxia replied.

"That's why I asked you to warn Li Wanrong. If anything happens to her in the palace, the Prince's Mansion will not be able to escape. We are all in the same boat."

"Yeah!" Chunxia also realized the seriousness of the matter. She no longer hesitated and went to Li Wanrong's yard with the post.

Xing'er, who was guarding the door, stopped Chunxia and said, "You can tell me what you have to say. My master is still resting."

Chun Xia was incredulous. Even if Aunt Li didn't have to serve the Princess, she couldn't be so lazy. Any other aunt should be lying in bed at this time of the day. "Even if Aunt Li is not managing the Prince's Mansion, she doesn't have to sleep until the third watch."

Li Wanrong's rest time is irregular every day. She wakes up later and later recently. Xing'er defends Li Wanrong and says, "The weather has been unpredictable these days. Aunt Li may have caught a cold."

Chunxia rolled her eyes at Xing'er who was telling lies: "The princess asked me to send a letter to Aunt Li."

"Give me the invitation. I'll give it to Aunt Li when she wakes up." Xing'er reached out to take the invitation from Chunxia's hand, and when she saw the hot golden seal on it, she immediately pulled her hand back: "This is an invitation from the royal family."

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and wake up Aunt Li."

Xing'er ignored Aunt Li's warning, opened the door, walked to the bed, and pushed Li Wanrong who was sleeping.

Li Wanrong was exhausted. She looked at Xing'er angrily and said, "Didn't I tell you not to disturb my rest?"

"The Princess asked Chunxia to send the invitation over."

Li Wanrong was full of impatience: "It's just a post, you can just accept it, why did you have to wake me up?"

Xing'er also wanted this, but the invitation Chunxia sent was from the royal family, so she didn't dare to accept it.

Chun Xia, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, said, "Don't embarrass Xing Er. This is a royal invitation. She can't accept it."

"It's just a post. Why can't you accept it? You're too old-fashioned." Li Wanrong cursed and got up from the bed. She was not interested in the banquet, and the noble ladies in the capital didn't like her. She went there alone and sat there: "Go back and tell the princess that I won't attend the banquet in the palace."

"I can answer Aunt Li now. Aunt Li may not understand that Aunt Li's name is written on the invitation to the palace banquet, so Aunt Li must go. If you don't go, you will be disobeying the imperial decree. If you make the emperor unhappy, not only will you be punished, but the Prince's Mansion will also be punished."

Hearing Chunxia's words, Aunt Li frowned. This ancient time was really troublesome. "I know."

After Chunxia left, Li Wanrong forced herself to get up from the bed with her tired body, opened the wardrobe and picked out clothes. The prince doted on her and never treated her badly in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. The clothes he made for her were all gorgeous.

Since she was going to attend a banquet, she had to dress beautifully, so she chose a yellow brocade gauze skirt with colorful flowers embroidered on the hem and neckline. It was layered, luxurious and beautiful: "I'll wear this to attend the palace banquet."
