When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

Chapter 307 Can you carry your shop and walk around the street?

After Xu Xinyue hurriedly washed and dressed, she left the palace, got on a carriage, and headed straight for Xu's residence.

When we arrived at Xu's house, before we even got off the carriage and entered the main gate, we heard a commotion inside.

Xu Xinyue jumped off the carriage and trotted into the main gate, then heard Xu Yuanshan's voice:

"Don't stop me, I want to go to Prince Rong's Mansion and find out everything!"

"What on earth is going on? Why was he stabbed for no reason? I heard that Prince Rong's eyes were injured, and his body was also injured. I don't know how Yueyue is doing. I want to go see Yueyue!"

"Master, the young lady is fine, she is really fine. I sent someone to ask about her, and she is alive and well. Your legs can't stand the torture!"

"I'm going to go no matter what! I already said I was going to Prince Rong's Mansion, why are you dragging me back to Xu's Mansion?"

"Oh, I'm just afraid that you'll be impulsive, sir!"

Xu Yuanshan shouted at the top of his lungs and tried to struggle out of the house. The housekeeper Fu Bo and the servants tried their best to dissuade him. They were so anxious that they were sweating profusely, thinking that Xu Yuanshan was harder to control than the New Year pig.

Suddenly, a clear voice fell into the noisy crowd: "Daddy!"

Xu Yuanshan's expression froze, and he looked up in disbelief towards the source of the voice. When he saw the pretty girl standing at the door, tears immediately rolled down his cheeks: "Yueyue!"

"Daddy! How are you!"

Xu Xinyue walked up quickly and took a quick look at his body. After confirming that he was fine, she held the hand that Xu Yuanshan extended to her: "Dad hasn't recovered yet, why are you still walking around!"

"I was worried about you. I heard over there that Prince Rong and Princess Rong were assassinated and their whereabouts were unknown. I was very worried and immediately asked them to bring me back."

"I'm relieved to see that you're fine. What about Prince Rong? Did he really hurt his eyes? What are you going to do in the future?"

"Don't worry, Dad. He used to have eye problems, but now he has recovered. He was at the court this morning so he didn't come to see you. Don't worry."

"Really?"

"Absolutely true!"

After hearing her assurance, Xu Yuanshan felt relieved.

"That's good, that's good. I heard from the guards he left behind in Kyoto that he asked His Majesty for permission to marry him at the birthday banquet. Have you chosen a date?"

"Ah."

"That's good. I'm relieved now. Have you been staying in Prince Rong's mansion these days?"

"……Um."

"I didn't say anything, why are you so cautious? You are already the future Princess Rong, so it's okay for you to live in the Rong Palace."

"Although your mother passed away early, as both a father and a mother, I still want to say one more thing. I have already asked the matchmaker, and we must prepare everything that is necessary."

Xu Yuanshan directed Uncle Fu to push Su Yu towards the side courtyard, and he kept muttering along the way: "Although Dad is just a merchant, and cannot compare to the rich people in the palace, he has saved a lot over the years, and all of it is prepared for your dowry. You don't have to feel inferior to marrying into the palace, Dad will give you enough face!"

"Yueyue is definitely no less than those young ladies from wealthy families!"

"Don't worry."

Arriving in front of a room, Xu Yuanshan raised his voice: "Uncle Fu, open the door."

This familiar courtyard made Xu Xinyue's heart tighten. Her toes unconsciously turned outward, and her body moved towards the gate little by little.

"Yueyue, let me tell you, I have saved these silver and items for many years. Even if I marry into the royal palace, Daddy thinks it is too much..."

The moment the door opened, Xu Yuanshan couldn't believe his eyes!

The items he had collected were still there, but where was the money!!! Where were the gold and silver treasures in his "small treasury"!! The big mahogany box that was once full was now empty.

More than ten boxes!

Xu Xinyue looked at her father's dazed back and quickly backed out of the yard.

As he dodged, he heard Xu Yuanshan roaring behind him: "Xu Xinyue! Where is the money? So much silver and jewels! Why are you running away!"

"Uncle Fu, bring her back to me! No, you push me, I want to catch her myself!"

"Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because I have bad legs and feet!"

"I'm not home, are you really going to heaven?!"

The territory of the Xu residence was not particularly wide compared to other mansions, and Xu Xinyue was "forced" into a corner by the servants after running only a few laps.

"Dad, let me explain."

"Humph, explain yourself. Where did you get the money?"

"I didn't use it recklessly. I just used it to temporarily relieve my emergency..."

She explained everything about the bookstore in detail. Xu Yuanshan held his forehead with his hand. Although she was not wrong, those "gold, silver and jewelry" were used as her dowry!

"Dowry...Didn't Dad give me the shop? The money will be taken back sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. Besides, since it will be given to me sooner or later, I'm just withdrawing it in advance."

"That's different. That's the treasure box. It's the one that's carried out to 'parade'. It's your reputation! Can you carry your shop around the street?!"

"If the bookstore loses one, it's fine. Why do you bother... Alas!"

Xu Xinyue was unconvinced and said, "How can that be possible? We had to save them. And I not only saved ours, I also saved many others."

"Dad didn't ask you to save him, but what about your marriage? Can you get him back in no time?"

"Maybe, probably, perhaps, I can get it back before the wedding."

"you……"

Xu Yuanshan wanted to say something else when a servant came to report, "Master, Prince Rong is here."

Xu Xianyue, who was "driven" to the corner, with her head lowered and her hands behind her back rubbing her toes, suddenly looked up and smiled silently.

Xu Yuanshan glanced at Xu Xinyue and said, "What are you laughing at? Do you think your savior has come?"

"Go to the front hall first, this matter is not over yet!"

"profound."

Xu Xinyue responded reluctantly and followed.

Qin Yuechuan was standing at the door of the front hall. He could see Xu Yuanshan in front from a distance. Xu Xinyue was walking slowly behind him with her head down, like a frost-bitten eggplant, as if she had committed a serious mistake and had been reprimanded.

When he got closer, Xu Yuanshan bowed and said sincerely: "I am like this now... please forgive me, Prince Rong."

"Uncle Xu, there's no need to be so polite. I came here to apologize to you."

"Your Highness Prince Rong, I don't deserve it. What gift do you have to compensate me for?"

"It was because I didn't explain to Uncle Xu that Yueyue and I were put in danger together. Uncle Xu was so worried that he hurried back to Kyoto overnight. This time, it was indeed my fault."

Xu Yuanshan was still somewhat resentful, but after hearing what Qin Yuechuan said, he could no longer vent his anger.

What else could he say? Qin Yuechuan had just recovered from an eye injury, but he had kept Yueyue safe and sound, and even apologized to him. If he continued to pester her, it would seem that he was being unkind.

"Since Prince Rong said so, I have nothing to say. As long as you and Yueyue are safe and sound, I will not let you down for rushing back to Kyoto overnight."

Qin Yuechuan added: "I thought Uncle Xu would arrive the day after tomorrow. I have prepared the betrothal gifts and will send them to Xu's house by then."

Speaking of betrothal gifts, thinking of the possibility of no matching dowry, Xu Yuanshan glared at his "spendthrift daughter" again.

Xu Xinyue looked up at the sky, pretending to see nothing, and quietly moved behind Qin Yuechuan.

Xu Yuanshan glanced at her sideways.

Did she really think that he, as her father, couldn't do anything to her?

Then he said, "I understand what Prince Rong means. I haven't seen Yueyue for a long time. We miss each other very much, so I want to keep Yueyue at Xu's house to reminisce about the past. For the time being, I will not let her go back to Prince Rong's mansion with you."

"Right? Yueyue? You miss daddy too, right?"

A storm of wind rushed through Xu Xinyue's mind. Knowing that she couldn't escape, she smiled dryly at Xu Yuanshan.

"...Yes, I really want to..."

"That's it. Prince Rong, you see, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I miss you so much. Please be lenient with me, Prince Rong."

Blood ties are unbreakable, and it is reasonable for a father and daughter to exchange some intimate words after not seeing each other for a long time.

Xu Xinyue had lived in Prince Rong's mansion for a long time, so Qin Yuechuan was naturally reluctant to let her leave. However, since Xu Yuanshan had already said this, Qin Yuechuan had no reason to refuse: "Of course."

After sending Qin Yuechuan away, Xu Yuanshan patted the armrest of "Su Yu" and said, "Come back to my room with me! Let's discuss how to fill this hole of yours!"

"If you can't fill it up, just don't fill it up for now... You will fill it up sooner or later. Besides... money is meant to be used..." Xu Xinyue muttered.

"Xu Xianyue!"

"I know, I know, Daddy, let's find a solution together."

Xu Xinyue straightened up and responded "righteously".

On the side of Xu Guanghai from the Xu Mansion, the wedding date between the Qi Wang Mansion and the Xu Mansion is approaching. Xu Guanghai has sent countless waves of people in recent days. After repeated urging and repeated requests, the Qi Wang Mansion finally sent someone to propose marriage.

This matter concerns the reputation of the Xu family, so he naturally takes it very seriously.

All the masters of the Xu Mansion are present.

The visitors were Qin Zhaolie's attendant and a matchmaker.

After a long speech of congratulations, he finally got to the point. The guard took out the letter of appointment and read it out in an eloquent manner.

In addition to the usual betrothal cakes, seafood, three kinds of meat, fine wine, Beijing fruit, four-color candies and other necessities, what Xu Guanghai was most looking forward to was how much actual gold and silver betrothal gifts Prince Qi would give to Xier. This was what he was most concerned about.

He exchanged this for one hundred and twenty loads of dowry!

Xu Yuanshan has gone, and all his shops have been taken with him. He used to be the best at making money in the Xu residence, but now the management of the shops in the Xu residence is not very satisfactory. They are mediocre and not very popular. They can't be said to be bad, but the profits are really limited.

If there are shops or something in the betrothal gifts, the shops under Prince Qi are always much better than those in the Xu Mansion. If there are also a few farms in Kyoto...

Xu Guanghai's beautiful dream was so great that he was so absorbed in his own fantasy that he didn't even listen carefully to what was being read out of the betrothal gift list or how long it took until someone patted him on the shoulder: "Master Xu? Master Xu? What's wrong with you?"

Xu Guanghai came back to his senses, "Ah, nothing happened, just continue reading."

The wedding lady said, "Master Xu, I have finished reading."

Xu Guanghai replied dully: "Finished reading? So fast?"

The matchmaker was amused: "Hey! That's not too fast! This gift list is the most generous I've ever seen! As expected of Prince Qi getting married, it's really generous, everything is included!"

The matchmaker is eloquent and her words are clever.

You will get everything you deserve, and you will not get anything more than what you deserve.

Xu Guanghai snatched the gift list and looked through it carefully from beginning to end. There were 100 kilograms of gold, 10,000 taels of silver, 50 horses, 1,000 rolls of silk, 20 sets of pack armor, 20 pieces of various jade ornaments, four jade ruyi handles, a set of enamel plates with dragon and phoenix as the theme, and some famous calligraphy and paintings.

Where are the manors, shops, and farmland he imagined?

The standard engagement letter from the royal palace was really... there was nothing wrong with it, no surprises or accidents at all. Xu Guanghai was neither dissatisfied nor satisfied. He always felt that it shouldn't be just like this.

But in front of the second wife, he pretended to be serious and said: "I know, it does meet the standards. Prince Qi... is thoughtful."

Xu Mingxi stood aside, watching all this in silence, as if these betrothal gifts had nothing to do with her.

Two lifetimes have passed, and she knew very well what the standard betrothal gift of a royal palace should be. The current situation made her involuntarily think of the betrothal gift that Qin Yuechuan brought when he came to the Xu Mansion in her previous life.

In addition to these standard items, additional jewels and jade, rare and exotic animals, as well as rare treasures from the North Xuan and South Yuan obtained in the wars, and land and shops are all included in the betrothal gifts.

She couldn't remember how many boxes they carried. Compared with the betrothal gifts from Prince Qi's Mansion, there was a huge difference.

But now it has become the past, and the path is chosen by oneself.

In her previous life, when she received the thick gift list, everyone said that Qin Yuechuan might have emptied the treasury of Prince Rong's mansion to ask her to marry him.

She couldn't help but look up at the gate of the mansion. Qin Yuechuan and Xu Xinyue had been engaged for some time, but there was still no sound of betrothal.

And in this life, he is going to marry Xu Xinyue. She wants to know what kind of betrothal gift Qin Yuechuan will give to Xu Xinyue in this life?

Those things in his previous life were probably all he had. Would he give them all to Xu Xinyue, or would he give more than what he gave to himself? What would be the ultimate beyond the ultimate?

Xu Mingxi couldn't suppress his curiosity.

Seeing that Xu Mingxi was staring at the door in a trance, Xu Minghui thought that Xu Mingxi was waiting for Qin Zhaolie to come to the mansion in person.

After all, if the future husband came in person, the Xu family would look more glorious.

But until now, Qin Zhaolie still hadn't shown up. Xu Minghui stepped forward and gently called her, "Xi'er, are you waiting for Prince Qi? Prince Qi may have something important to attend to at the court meeting today, so I'm afraid he won't come."

Xu Mingxi came back to his senses and smiled coldly: Waiting for him? You must be joking.

"What's wrong, brother?"

"I received a letter from the Yang family a few days ago. They are almost in Kyoto, and my grandfather and his family are here too."

"Grandpa..."

The Yang family is far away in Jiangnan, and the journey is long.

After taking charge of the Xu family's finances, Xu Mingxi seldom went back, and knew very little about the Yang family.

Now Xu Mingxi and the old lady are jointly managing the household, and they have no time to take care of other things. They have not yet inquired about who the Yang family are.

"I heard that your grandparents, as well as your cousins ​​and their families, are here... It just so happens that you are getting married, so they will probably wait until after you get married before leaving."

Are there so many people coming with their families?

There is nothing wrong with having more people from Yang's mother's family come to attend her funeral. If it is purely out of deep affection, then there is nothing wrong with it. But if someone has ulterior motives, then everything will be hard to say.

Xu Mingxi responded calmly: "I understand."

Let’s wait until they arrive to find out what the situation is.
