In the Kaihuafang not far in front of the Vermilion Bird Gate in Chang'an City, in the Song Guogong Mansion, Xiao Yu drank the good tea made by his son and quietly listened to his son tell the reason.

"Come back once a month, I thought I was coming back to see me and your mother, but it turned out to be for this?" Xiao Yu was a little dissatisfied.

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Where, I am worried about you and my mother, and the shop is a trivial matter." Father, you are too busy, it is better for the mother to go with her son to live in the manor for a few days, the weather is getting hotter, and it is just the right place to escape the heat. ”

Xiao Yu was not easy to fool, put down the teacup, and said with a straight face: "There are indeed a few shops in the family, both in the east and west markets, and the shops are not bad." Although these family businesses are for you sooner or later. Not now. ”

"Huh? Why, father? We have a shop at home, so I don't have to spend money to buy it, Chang'an City is expensive...... I promise that if I ask for a store, I can make ten times as much money as I can? Xiao Rui was puzzled.

Xiao Yu slapped the case, "Bastard! When the father is the profit-seeking merchant, bargaining? You are the eldest son of the dignified Song State Mansion, but now you are going to do business? My Xiao family has been a nobleman for generations, a farmer, a businessman, and a businessman, and a businessman is a lowly industry, are you willing to fall? ”

"A few years ago, you proposed a study tour, and I agreed. I don't come back after going out for a few years, but I finally come back but I have to move out to live in the farm. But you're better and more presumptuous, and now tell me that you're going to be the copper-smelling merchant? Do you really think that your father is as accustomed to you as your mother? From now on, stay in the house honestly, and you are not allowed to go anywhere! ”

Xiao Rui is in a hurry, I just came back to ask for a shop, and then get some start-up capital, how did I become a sheep into the tiger's mouth, this is to be grounded!

"The father is angry, the child should not shop the surface, is it not okay to stop doing business? I'll go and ask my mother for a ...... first," Xiao Rui hurriedly walked away.

The corners of Xiao Yu's mouth curved slightly, "Zhizi Mo Ruo's father, what do you want to do, can you hide it from me?" And live in the house with peace of mind. You are also a big man, and you should be at the age of starting a family, and tomorrow you will enter the palace for your father to face the saint, and ask the saint to give you a marriage. If you start a family as soon as possible, you will no longer be as reckless and playful as you are now. ”

"Huh? Don't father, I'm only seventeen, and I'm still underage......" Xiao Rui panicked.

"Underage? I Datang fifteen-year-old wife abounds. The words of the matchmaker of your parents' orders are not up to you. Go see your mother. Come and send my son back to the room, and he is not allowed to go out of the house without my order. Xiao Yu gave an order, and Xiao Rui was taken to the backyard by the housekeeper.

In the backyard, Xiao Rui was complaining to his mother, although the old lady loved her son, but marriage was always good, this time she did not stand on her son's side, and chose to enlighten in the middle.

At this moment, a fast horse galloped over, and it was Xiao Jiazhuang who came to report the news.

"Oh no, Childe, Xiaojiazhuang was set on fire by a gang of gangsters, and the second master sent a small fast horse to inform Childe!"

Xiao Ruixin said that there was a good opportunity, didn't the second brother know that I was in distress and arranged for someone to pick me up?

I haven't spoken yet, but I bumped into Xiao Yu who came to the backyard, "Bastard!" Have you arranged to fool the old man? I just grounded you and something happened to the farmstead? Retire! Even if the sky falls, you are not allowed to leave your house today. ”

The messenger knelt down and kowtowed anxiously: "Master, it's true, a group of more than 20 gangsters, and a group of vicious dogs, bite people when they see them, and the house is already on fire when the little one comes......"

Hearing this, Xiao Rui panicked, is there really a villain?

stopped arguing, bowed quickly to his parents, and then turned around and rushed out the door, "Daddy, the matter is urgent, I will come back to ask for the guilt after I go to take care of the gangsters!" ”

Xiao Rui's martial arts of flying eaves and walking on the wall, don't say that a small Song State Mansion is also outstanding in Chang'an City, if he wants to leave, who can stop him? Galloped to the stables, dragged a fast horse and went out.

Xiao Yu was dumbfounded, and Mrs. Xiao panicked, "Master, what should I do here?" ”

Xiao Yu kicked at the person who reported the news on the ground, "You tell the truth, Zhuangzi really had an accident?" ”

"It's true, if there is half a lie, the villain will die!"

Xiao Yu kicked down: "Bastard, why don't you catch up quickly and let Gongzi rescue alone?" Someone came, go and inform Xiao Banshan, and ask him to bring a hundred guards to support Gongzi quickly. ”

There were only two old people left in the house, and Mrs. Xiao looked out worriedly, "Master, Rui'er will be fine, right?" ”

"Don't worry, although this kid is naughty, but he has great ability, I secretly asked General Qin Shubao to try his martial arts, General Qin said that Rui'er's strength is not below him. Moreover, Xiao Banshan's three hundred guards are all veterans who have retired from the battlefield, and it is not a problem to send a few thieves. Xiao Yu looked very confident.

Mrs. Xiao nodded, and then she was a little relieved, "Master, we are all talented in civil and military affairs, but we don't let you and me show off, and we are bent on being a farmer, alas...... I don't know what he thinks. ”

"Farmer? The farmer is okay, today he told me that he wants to go into business and make money, if he changes our family, I will break his leg! Hmph, wait for Da Lang to come back, continue to lock it up, you show me, don't let him go out and make trouble, I will go to ask Your Majesty for a family matter, I hope he can be more stable when he becomes a parent. Xiao Yu sighed.

Mrs. Xiao suddenly couldn't help laughing, "Master, the child sent the villain, will he come back?" ”

I...... Ay! How did I forget this? Xiao Yu patted her forehead and shouted miscalculation.

After a moment of remorse, Xiao Yu suddenly smiled, "It's okay, doesn't he want to get a shop to do business?" If you add the principal to the shop, you can get a lot of money, how much money does he have in Zhuangzi? The housekeeper Xiao Hu was selected by me, and he came back every month to report the accounts, and there were only a few hundred taels of daily expenses in total, and I asked people to transfer back Zhuangzi's money, and he couldn't do business without money. You have to come back and beg me. ”

Mrs. Xiao scolded with a smile: "What an old fox, even his own son is calculating." By the way, Rui'er's family affairs, let's just pick the right family, why bother the saint? ”

Xiao Yu sighed with emotion: "Madam, we are not ordinary nobles, not to mention that the Lanling Xiao clan is famous, the key is that we have been emperors." It's not that you don't know that my father was the last emperor of the Liang before and after the Sui Dynasty. ”

Mrs. Xiao covered her mouth and smiled: "Yes, sir, you have also been the prince of Liang Kingdom." ”

Xiao Yu glanced at his wife, "Don't mention this kind of thing again." Because of this, it is difficult for us to marry anyone in the court and the middle of the court to ensure that we will not be suspected by the saints, so let's let the saints appoint us. I guess it's very likely that you're marrying a princess. ”

"What? Princess? Aren't we going to be a colt? How does this work? Rui'er is the eldest son of Song Guogong, and he will inherit the family business in the future, how can he have the eldest son, Princess Shang? I disagree! Mrs. Xiao complained.

Being a colt in the Tang Dynasty is not called marrying a princess, but being called Princess Shang, which is not a good reputation, in fact, it is to serve the princess. Most of them are the second sons of powerful people, and there are no eldest sons.

Xiao Yu smiled and persuaded his wife, "Don't worry, madam, I have already inquired, the eldest daughter of the saint, Princess Xiangcheng, is fifteen years old, has good conduct, has a gentle personality, and is a virtuous person, most of them are her." With our son's detached character, do you think there is a princess who can handle him? ”

When it came to her son, Mrs. Xiao thought about it and was relieved, "That's right, our son usually looks honest and well-behaved, but in fact, he has a lot of eyes, which girl can withstand his coaxing?" At this point, I don't know who is with it? ”

With whom? I—How do I know? What do you see me doing? I will marry one of you, and the second room is still supported by your maid.

Xiao Yu turned her head and saw that her wife was looking at her with strange eyes, her old face turned red, she excused herself, and fled to the study.

Mrs. Xiao smiled directly and bent over.
