Xiaocui's funeral was held simply and low-key, firstly, because she was nameless and undistinguished, and secondly, all women who died due to dystocia were regarded as impure people and were not eligible to enter the ancestral grave. Zhou Xiao found a clean cemetery for her in the western suburbs, and the scenery was not bad.

Thinking of this, Qingchen couldn't help but sigh again, the ancient woman risked her life to reproduce children for her in-law's family, but in the end, she couldn't even enter the ancestral tomb......

Qingchen turned back to his thoughts, glanced at the mountain of account books in front of him, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, Steward Mo had dumped all the properties of Mofu to her, she had been tormented in the complicated accounts for several days, and the pain was a fight with the overtime at the end of the year. In addition, the Mohist family has a wide range of industries, involving a wide range of fields, from tea and salt related to the people's livelihood, to high-end furs, from all kinds of restaurants to gold, silver and jade, everything, almost no prostitutes. Pavilion. Because there were too many ledgers, Qingchen had to requisition her father's study.

Qingchen spent three days sorting out and classifying the account books, and there were five rice shops and tea houses, distributed in the southeast, northwest, and middle of Kyoto; The fur shop is located on the most prosperous South Gate Street in Kyoto, not far from the Spiegel Pavilion; There are three restaurants, Jumo Xuan, Zui Mo Xuan, and Jing Mo Xuan, each with its own geographical location; There are two silver buildings, one is Tongxin Building that has been under Qingchen's name, Qingchen stretched out his hand and stroked the account book of Tongxin Building, and his heart was sad, this is Mo Xuanran's dowry for her, the dowry is still there, but unfortunately the person is no longer there; There is also a Tongde Building, which is said to be as famous as Tongxin Building; In addition, it is the largest industry of the Mo family, the jade workshop that everyone in Kyoto knows and everyone knows: Jade Manlou. For the golden brilliance of the jade building, there are poems in the market as evidence: white jade paves the ground and makes a gold wall, and a jade building is half a south sun. Nanyang is the origin of the best white jade, and Bishan is equally famous, and is the same as the two major jade production holy places of the Great Zhou, the only difference is that Nanyang produces white jade, and Bishan produces jasper. Half of Nanyang's jade has entered this jade building.

Qingchen opened the account book of Yumanlou, and the words in her eyes made her have a headache, at this moment, she missed her Arabic numerals so much. Nostalgia is nostalgic, the account book still can't help but look, Qingchen decided to start looking at it from the thirty-seventh year of perpetuality, fortunately, the bookkeeper remembers it quite clearly, but Qingchen doesn't know much about the price of the Great Zhou, and he is a layman for jade, and he has been looking at it for a long time, and he has no clear concept......

Qingchen was stunned, what is he doing here? Since the Xiaocui incident, Qingchen has not seen Zhou Xiao, wherever Zhou Xiao may appear, Qingchen tries to avoid it, she really can't get over the hurdle in her heart, thinking of him, she can't help but think of his ruthless methods.

But today it seemed that there was no way to avoid it, so Qingchen threw down the account book and got up to greet him. Before he reached the door of the study, someone pushed the door in, and when he saw someone, Qingchen was stunned on the spot.

Today's Zhou Xiao is still Zhou Xiao, still wearing a gold-inlaid black robe, still handsomely tarnishing the sun and the moon, the difference is that he has a little baby in his arms, and the drooling saliva wets a large piece of his clothes.

Qingchen looked at Zhou Xiao's disgusted expression, and secretly felt funny in his heart, it turned out that this cold-faced prince also had helpless moments.

"Don't come and pick him up yet!" Zhou Xiao said irritably.

Qingchen hurriedly stepped forward to take over the small meat ball, the little guy was sleeping soundly, felt the movement, suddenly opened his eyes, did not smell the familiar smell, and actually began to cry loudly......

Qingchen had never held such a small baby, and suddenly felt at a loss, neither filming nor coaxing, seeing Zhou Xiao standing idly on the side, not only did he not have the slightest intention of helping, but also suspected of watching a good show, he couldn't help but say: "Call the nurse quickly!" ”

"This king didn't let them go with him when he went out today." Zhou Xiao's face was expressionless, but the words he said could make people angry.

"Then come and help, he is crying so much, it seems that he doesn't like me to hug him." Qingchen coaxed and said.

"It's okay, the nurse said, crying more is good for growth."

Although Qingchen was angry, he couldn't do anything about Zhou Xiao, so he had to be patient and continue to fight against the small meat ball in his hand, while Zhou Xiao sat down and looked through the account book on the desk by himself......

Qingchen tried his best to finally put the little guy to sleep again, and saw that Zhou Xiao was actually looking at the account book of the Mo Mansion, and was about to ask for it, but Zhou Xiao seemed to have eyes on the top of his head, and said: "Don't worry, this little money of the Mo family, this king is not in his eyes." ”

Having said that, Qingchen secretly wondered in her heart that she had seen Zhou Xiao's ruthlessness, and it was hard to guarantee that one day, he would attack Mofu.

Zhou Xiao saw that Qingchen was silent for a long time, and said: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, if this king wants the family property of Mofu, even if you don't look at this account book, you can't keep it!" ”

Qingchen thought about it, and this was reasonable, so he patted the baby in his arms with peace of mind. The child has grown up very fast, he has not seen it for more than a month, the wrinkles on his face have long been removed, and his face has gradually grown, and he has more and more Mo Xuanran's charm, I have to sigh, human genes are indeed strong, Qingchen can't help but think of Mo Xuanran again......

So much so that Zhou Xiao called her a few times, but she didn't hear it.

Zhou Xiao had no choice but to raise his voice and shout by name: "An Qingchen!" Have you heard the words of this king? ”

Qingchen came back to his senses and saw that the anger in Zhou Xiao's eyes had risen: "I heard it, don't scare the child!" ”

"Xu'er was full moon yesterday, but you, who is an aunt, don't you look at him once, isn't it too unkind?"

The first thing Qingchen heard was the full moon, time flies so fast, I didn't expect it to be a full moon so soon; Secondly, she noticed that Zhou Xiao gave her the title of Ann: aunt. "I'm Xu'er's mother, how did I become an aunt in your mouth?"

"What mother will not come to see her child for a month, obviously, you are not a suitable mother."

"You ......" Qingchen is irrefutable.

"Besides, now that Xu'er is raised in my Yongwang Mansion, I said that it is my aunt, who dares to object!"

Qingchen pursed his lips, disapproving.

Zhou Xiao continued: "As Xu'er's aunt, you should visit him in the palace at least once a month, and each time must not be less than three hours. "There are no female dependents in the palace, and Xu'er needs maternal love.

For this, Qingchen has no objection; "Okay, I agree."

Seeing that Qingchen agreed without hesitation, Zhou Xiao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was really afraid that she would not agree, after all, Xu'er was the son of Xiaocui.

Zhou Xiao picked up one of the account books and said, "As far as this king knows, although the price of Nanyang Puyu is expensive, it will not cost a thousand taels of silver, but the jade of a thousand taels of silver in your account book abounds......"

Qingchen was stunned in his heart, he was reminding her that the cat hidden in this account book was greasy, and it seemed that the Chen shopkeeper of this jade building had to be beaten well.

Zhou Xiao casually put down the account book and said, "It's been a long time since I came out this time, and I'm afraid Xu'er should be hungry in her stomach." With that, he got up and left.

Qingchen hurriedly said: "If you want to leave, you have to take Xu'er away!" ”

Zhou Xiao said as he walked: "Send this king to the carriage." ”

Qingchen had no choice but to resign herself to holding the little meat ball, following Zhou Xiao's footsteps, and only when Zhou Xiao got into the carriage and took the child in her hand did she breathe a sigh of relief.

It's strange to say, as soon as Xu'er arrived in Zhou Xiao's hands, she actually breathed a sigh of relief, still asleep, and there was still a smile on her lips.

Qingchen was about to turn around, not wanting the carriage curtain to be lifted again, Zhou Xiao showed half of his face and said, "In a few days, the king of Japan is going to Nanyang to inspect on behalf of his father, do you want to go with you?" ”
