After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

It was a huge wolfhound that was almost half a person's height, sleek and skinny, with a ferocious look. Its white teeth gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and it could bite off a person's neck with one bite!

At this moment, it pounced towards Lin Xun quickly, then wagged its tail and... played around, burying its big head in Lin Xun's arms and making "wooooo" sounds and acting coquettishly.

Tianshu followed closely behind, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hands, he simply couldn't bear to watch it!

It attacked quickly and fiercely, and Lin Xun caught it steadily. The gray claw marks were very conspicuous on Lin Xun's dark brocade robe.

Worried that Lin Xun would be angry, Tianshu quickly explained: "Master, you have been back in Beijing these few days and have no time to take Langya hunting. It is bored."

"Got it. I'll take it to Xishan tomorrow."

Lin Xun's voice was as cold as ever, but his actions were very gentle as he touched the big wolfhound's head. The big wolfhound made a 'gurgling' sound in its throat and rubbed against Lin Xun, looking very affectionate.

The big wolf dog was named Langya. Lin Xun picked it up five years ago. It was almost caught and roasted by a group of beggars.

This dog was originally a ferocious big wolfdog. No one knew who fed it, but it became as round as a ball. It only knew how to show its belly and act coquettishly in front of people. Lin Xun trained it for a long time before it corrected this bad habit.

When I first brought it back, it looked very cute, not as majestic as it is now.

Lin Xun looked for an owner for it for a while, but failed to find one, so he kept it with him.

Although it was very smart when it was young, it was one of Lin Xun's most capable assistants on the battlefield.

However, this dog has the same temperament as Lin Xun, being aloof and cold. Normally, even personal guards like Tianshu cannot get close to it. Only Lin Xun can get close to it.

Tianshu looked at the big wolfhound with envy, acting like a spoiled child to Lin Xun. He resisted the urge to touch its big round head and used words to divert his attention: "Master, you may not be able to go to Xishan tomorrow!"

"The old princess sent someone to tell you today that she will hold a flower viewing banquet in the palace tomorrow, and asked you to go back tomorrow..."

He quietly took a step back, and after ensuring a safe enough distance, Tianshu dared to speak: "Also, the old princess asked you to dress nicely tomorrow, and not wear dull clothes all day long."

After saying that, Tianshu ran away!

Following Tianshu's words, there was a "ripping" sound, and the big wolfhound, which was originally acting coquettishly, lost control of its strength and directly bit through the hem of Lin Xun's robe.

Seeing Lin Xun looking at him, he wanted to return the torn piece of clothes in an attempt to cover up his mistake.

"Langya!"

The usually calm and composed Regent Prince now spoke with a hint of anger, "This is already the fifth robe you've torn this month. If you do this again, I'll skin you alive!"

Lin Xun threatened in a sinister way, and Langya let out a "woosh" and started to cry falsely out of grievance...

Lin Xun rubbed his round head hard, and thinking of Tianshu's words just now, he couldn't help but pinch his eyebrows.

He naturally knew the purpose of the old princess's flower-viewing banquet. Tomorrow... he should find an excuse not to go!

……

The next day, Xiao Xuetang got up late again and it was already past the time to pay his respects to the old lady.

Qiyue was a little worried that the old lady had a strange temper and would hold Xiao Xuetang accountable, but Xiao Xuetang was extremely calm.

"Right now the old lady is preoccupied with the Zhang family's lawsuit, so she has no time to care about us."

Xiao Xuetang said: "Let's change our clothes and go to the shop."

Although Xiao Xuetang managed the pharmacy well in her previous life, at that time she was only thinking about serving her grandmother for her parents and then marrying Lin Shaoshu as soon as possible, and did not pay much attention to the business.

It was not until she lived her life again that Xiao Xuetang understood Concubine Xie's painstaking efforts. In this world, if a woman wants to settle down and make a living, she can only rely on herself as neither her parents nor her husband can be trusted!

Qiyue and others thought that Xiao Xuetang meant to go to Jishantang when he said he was going to the shop. After all, among the masters of the Xie family, Xiao Xuetang had the best relationship with the third master of the Xie family. The third master of the Xie family had no interest in economics and was obsessed with medicine. Xiao Xuetang was also very interested in medicine and was considered a half-closed disciple of the third master of the Xie family.

Therefore, Xiao Xuetang's other shops were handed over to Liu Yuan and other trusted confidants to manage. The only shop he would visit from time to time was Jishan Hall, as a way of remembering Master Xie Sanye.

However, this time Xiao Xuetang did not go to Jishidiang, but went to the perfume and powder shop that he had bought a few years ago.

In this dynasty, everyone from the royal family to the literati had the custom of burning incense. It was an accident that Xiao Xuetang took over the spice shop and handed it over to Lin Shu and his wife to manage.

Lin Shu and his wife were good friends of Mr. Xie Sanye. A few years ago, Xiao Xuetang received a letter from Mr. Xie Sanye. In order not to implicate Xiao Xuetang, Mr. Xie Sanye rarely communicated with her. This time, he asked Xiao Xuetang to find a way to help him settle his good friend and his wife.

In fact, whether based on the closeness of the relationship or the convenience of acting in terms of status, it would be more appropriate to ask for help from Lin Shaoshu, but Mr. Xie San went to find Xiao Xuetang.

Not only because Third Master Xie trusted Xiao Xuetang more than Lin Shaoshu, but also because the Xie family had been through so much and could no longer withstand any more turmoil. Lin Shaoshu seemed gentle and refined, but in fact he was ambitious and wanted that position so much that he was willing to do anything to get it!

The Xie family also did not want to aid the evildoers and disrupt the hard-earned peace and prosperity.

In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang had no idea about the difficulties faced by the Xie family, and actually forced the Xie family into this dead end.

What Xiao Xuetang will never be able to forgive herself is that Third Master Xie was indirectly killed because he helped Lin Shaoshu win the throne!

Living a new life, Xiao Xuetang would naturally not be as stupid as in his previous life...

Xiao Xuetang has stopped delivering news about the Xie family to Lin Shaoshu and cut off Lin Shaoshu's contacts with the Xie family. However, it is not so easy to stop Lin Shaoshu from plotting against the Xie family and to protect the Xie family.

Lin Shaoshu has not been idle in Kyoto over the years. In addition to doing a lot of work in front of the emperor to win the hearts of the people, he also has a group of resourceful retainers.

Among them, Mr. Wen, the chief of the retainers, was extremely intelligent and almost a demon.

In his previous life, he had been instigating Lin Shaoshu to use the Xie family. In addition to taking advantage of the Xie family's special status in the minds of scholars, there was another very important reason...

They wanted to obtain a certain secret of the Xie family, which was said to allow Lin Shaoshu to overthrow the Eastern Palace and obtain the throne without any effort!

In her previous life, after Xiao Xuetang married Lin Shaoshu, she lived in a daze and had no idea what the secrets they were talking about were.

But Xiao Xuetang had a hunch that it might be related to the white jade paperweight left by his grandfather.

Xiao Xuetang studied it all night last night but didn't find any secret hidden in it. Now the situation is special, Xiao Xuetang didn't dare to write a letter to ask Master Xie directly.

Fortunately, Xiao Xuetang has taken it back from Nanny Lai in this life, and she will keep an eye on Lin Shaoshu's every move during her stay in Kyoto, and will never let the Xie family repeat the mistakes of the previous life!

The carriage soon stopped at a perfume and powder shop called Yan Xinji.

……

Almost at the same time, Ye Jin from the Marquis' Mansion was also in front of a bronze mirror, applying delicate rouge and makeup. She casually said to Qiao Niang, "I plan to open a new perfume and powder shop in the next few days. You can ask around in Kyoto in the next few days..."

Qiao Niang immediately beamed with joy and said, "I understand. It's the same as before. We'll see which store has the best business and the most customers, and then we'll open a store next to it and directly grab their ready-made business!"
