Chapter 288: The First Copy

Through the mouths of the angry and anxious people of the Yan family, but in the blink of an eye, the news of the Yan family's huge sacrifice of money to the princess spread throughout the city.

Someone else swore that they had seen several carriages from the Yan family to the Qiwang Mansion with their own eyes, and each box had to be carried by two people with great effort, and this rumor was even more uproarious.

Xia Hanqiu didn't go to the government office that day.

asked Mingde to calculate the number, and pulled Yan Shengnan to sit on the side and speak.

"Your uncles and cousins don't agree?"

"They have calculated my family for decades, how can they agree." Yan Shengnan sneered, feeling extremely happy when he thought of those angry faces, "My father said that it was not their turn to intervene in my family's affairs, and he also said that he would open an ancestral hall to reason, plus those people you sent over before, what can they do if they are unwilling." ”

Xia Hanqiu nodded slightly, "If they deliberately embarrass your father, the prince will come forward." ”

The only thing Yan Shengnan is worried about now is that they are embarrassed by their father, and when they heard the princess say this, they immediately relaxed.

"The city lord's mansion also has a treasury, but there is no Qiwang Mansion guarded there, that is, the locks of the treasury are specially made, and ordinary people can't open it, so I can rest assured that I can put it here, but I don't have the heart to swallow it privately."

"Princess, you're joking, I can't believe it, no one will believe you."

After the inventory was completed and put into the warehouse one by one, Xia Hanqiu took the account book and flipped through it, wrote down the number in his heart, and then handed the account book to Yan Shengnan, "You see if it's these." ”

Yan Shengnan was about to push it back, but the account book had been stuffed into her hand, "If you have to count, you have to count." ”

She naturally knows what she knows. When she was at home, she had already counted it several times, and the princess didn't really ask her to write down the number when she wanted her to see it, but that Ding is Ding Mao is Mao needs to be right, so as not to make anything dirty in the future, and when he understood this layer, Yan Shengnan opened the thin book and looked carefully.

When she saw that the mantissa were all the same, she nodded happily, "That's it." ”

"That's good, I'll have someone copy of this book, and you can keep it." Xia Hanqiu did not give more promises. There is no evidence. It's annoying to talk too much, and it's much better than the empty promise.

Yan Shengnan also understood, and he didn't refuse this time.

At this time, Ruyue hurriedly walked in with a big bowl in both hands. Eyes swept to find people. Almost ran to the master. "Princess, do you want this?"

Since the identity was revealed on that day, the titles of the people in the palace have also been uniformly changed to the prince and princess. The attitude has not changed much from before.

Xia Hanqiu's eyes lit up when he looked at the thing, but as soon as he took it, he felt that something was wrong, "Why is this color?" Haven't fried it in oil? ”

"Back to the princess, the cook tried for a few days according to the process you gave and still didn't succeed, so she came according to her own method, this noodles were first cooked in water, and then roasted and dried, so it became like this."

Xia Hanqiu took it in his hand and muttered for a while, "Go, soak it in boiling water." ”

"Yes."

Ruyue neatly poured boiling water into the big bowl with her hands and feet, watching the dried noodles gradually soften, and they became the same as before they were baked, she really couldn't understand what the princess's intention was in doing this.

Estimating the time, Xia Hanqiu picked up a pair of chopsticks, and looked at the intact noodles that were actually a lump of noodles, and they broke one after another as soon as they came out of the water, and they all fell clean after the end.

"Nope." Xia Hanqiu put down his chopsticks, his brows furrowed, not to mention the taste, if this noodle is really used in the army, I am afraid that they will only be able to drink batter soup in the end.

"Then find a way, you let the cook try a few more times according to my process, or adjust it yourself if you think there is something that doesn't work, in short, the steps have to be according to that, frying is a necessary process, otherwise it can't be stored for a long time, and it won't be delicious."

"Yes."

After Ruyue left, Yan Shengnan asked thoughtfully, "Is the princess thinking about new things to supply the army?" ”

"That's got to be done." Xia Hanqiu was helpless, there was obviously a process step there, why couldn't it be done? "Let's not talk about this first, I have to go to the government, you let go of Xiu Mu today, then go back and rest for a day, or accompany your father and mother."

"I have to go to the government office too." Yan Shengnan smiled bitterly, "Things have spread all over the place, how can my sisters not know, I am ahead of them in this matter, if I don't go today, how will they let me go, but I won't go with you, I have set a lot of things in Shuxiangzhai before, I have to go to get them and then go to the mansion, sweet their mouths, so don't crusade against me." ”

Xia Hanqiu smiled, "I won't speak for you then." ”

Yan Shengnan was dumbfounded, making Xia Hanqiu laugh.

At the door, Xia Hanqiu remembered that he hadn't gone to his grandfather's house opposite in the past few days, so he asked people to wait outside first, and went to Xia's house instead.

The old lady was very happy to see her, and before she could bow down, she hurriedly called someone to hold her, "Where are you here?" Didn't go to the Yamen today? ”

"Some things are delayed, I'll go in a while."

The old lady didn't know about the old lady, but the old lady knew the way, thinking of the rumors outside, her brows gathered together, and she didn't want to provoke the old wife to think about it, so she didn't ask more, and only got up after they talked for a while: "Autumn girl, you go to the study with me, I have something to ask you." ”

"Yes, grandmother, granddaughter is gone."

"Go ahead, come and see me when you're free."

Xia Hanqiu gave another salute before quickly following out of the road.

The old lady was very useful, and when she learned that her granddaughter, who had worked hard in her childhood, had married a prince, she couldn't believe that the grandson-in-law who had always been a little unclear in her identity was actually the prince?

But this matter can't allow her not to believe it, after accepting this fact, she is worried that her granddaughter and the Xia family will be separated, fortunately, she is a nostalgic person, and when she comes over again, there is no change from before, how to call people and how to call them, how to salute and how to salute, that is, she regarded herself as a junior, and after watching it for a few days, she put her mind at ease.

But when people gave face, she also learned that it was good, and then every time she came back, she would not be courteous.

Compared with these false gifts, the future of the children and grandchildren is the most important, and the Xia family will have the princess to support them in the future, are you afraid that the Xia family will have no future? Even the Xia family's financial resources have to be pasted in.

Over there, the grandfather and grandson sat opposite each other in the study.

Taking the tea handed by the maid and putting it in front of his grandfather, Xia Hanqiu asked the old man who was still frowning and not scattered, "Is my uncle at home today?" ”

"He doesn't have to go to the yamen on time, the weather is repeated these days, and there are more when it rains, and he goes out less than usual.

After Xia Yusheng finished speaking, he looked at this granddaughter whose identity was turned upside down, the young daughter who was lost when she first met, and the current fourth princess, what kind of face did he see when others were powerful, but it was his granddaughter who he had only seen such a person after decades of life.

It's too stable!

Zhang Zetian's father, and he didn't have his biological mother by his side to teach, I really don't know how she developed such a temperament!

"What does my grandfather want to ask, I didn't expect the Yan family to be so generous, I didn't want to accept it with my previous thoughts, but Shengnan reminded me that we are people on the same boat, if I keep excluding other people on the boat, in the end they won't trust me much, once there is a wave, there will be capsizing, so whoever wants to help me with gold and silver in the future, I will accept it as appropriate."

Xia Yusheng's face softened slightly, "I also said that you remembered to use other people, forgot about the Xia family, I underestimated you, you have never been the one who only cares about the person in front of you, after all, you don't forget, no matter what, there is a Xia family behind you to support you, although it can't help you a lot, but the money will definitely do its best to help you." ”

"I know it, grandfather." Originally, I had something to say, but I haven't been able to find an opportunity, so Xia Hanqiu took the opportunity and said: "Grandfather, it's good for the Xia family to contribute in the back, but there is one thing I need to say in front." ”

"You say."

"It's enough for the Xia family's virtuous cousin to take that road."

Xia Yusheng's face remained unchanged, "You mean, if the big thing is done, the Xia family can only have virtue to become an official person?" ”

"Yes."

"To avoid it?"

"This is one of the reasons, there is another point, the second uncle is a person who has no view of inaction, and must be reused, it stands to reason that he wants to take that road is the most suitable, but there is one thing I don't know if my grandfather knows Lu Dao, now this big stall is managed by me and Yingying, even if we need to hand over all this in the future, but no one can erase the credit, if the Xia family retreats from their own knowledge, Bai Yu's temperament will definitely not be treated lightly, if you don't know that Lu Dao will accept it when she sees it, the Xia family will invite trouble, you can say that I think far, The eight characters have not yet begun to assign these, but I think it is better to think than not to think, I am in one day, the Xia family will be glorious for one day, and it is far better to raise the next generation than to be an unstable minister. ”

Xia Yusheng nodded slowly, and said slowly: "The Xia family can't stand too high. ”

"Yes." Seeing that his grandfather was not dissatisfied, Xia Hanqiu took advantage of the situation to pursue, "In the past few years, I have treated Bai Yu with sincerity, he has treated me with sincerity, plus there is a relationship in exchange, as long as I support it well in the future and manage this relationship well, as long as the Xia family abides by its duty, the Xia family will definitely be different from other families, and my grandfather will see this ideal more clearly than me." ”

"Father, Qiu'er, are you looking for me?" The door was not closed, Xia Cong strode in, and it was not surprising that his niece was there, obviously he had already known the way.

"It's the autumn girl looking for you."

Xia Hanqiu was about to get up and salute, Xia Cong shook his hand, "Sit and talk, don't come to those vain, Qiu'er, you are offering money for the Yan family to explain to me?" If it's for this, you don't have to say anything, since you do this, you must have your considerations, anyway, the Xia family is behind you, when do you need it, just give an order. ”

Xia Cong's trust made Xia Hanqiu show a soft smile on his face, "I can't explain it, it's just that I made some changes to my previous plan, and I need to talk to you." (To be continued......)
