I helped the Chu family, and they still complain that I'm not generous enough.

These people are absolutely awful!

At this moment, Bai Can felt regret again. He shouldn't have helped the Chu family, and he shouldn't have taken out those hundreds of taels of silver!

Similarly, he began to waver in his mind about whether or not he should marry Chu Tianjiao!

"Forget it, we've already thrown away so much money, are we going to end up losing both our money and our people?"

Bai Can comforted himself in his heart, then looked at Chu Tianjiao's beautiful face and tried to hypnotize himself.

...

After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Yu handed over all the silver to Shen Youyu.

MSG and chicken essence have already started to generate profits, and the Xiao Prince's Mansion is no longer short of money; in fact, it will become increasingly wealthy.

After leaving Baoyue Tower, Shen Youyu had no source of income... although she still had a lot of gold, silver jewelry and banknotes in her own little box.

"Shiro, where did you get all this money?"

Upon seeing this box of silver, Shen Youyu couldn't help but ask curiously.

Because Xiao Yu had said that all the profits from chicken essence and MSG would be given to his sister-in-law.

So when she saw Xiao Yu offering her money, she immediately asked where the money came from.

"It was obtained from the Chu family."

Xiao Yu briefly recounted what had happened.

"So that's how it is."

Shen Youyu couldn't help but smile, her stunningly beautiful face becoming even more captivating.

After consummating her marriage with Xiao Yu, Shen Youyu became even more womanly, her charming appearance captivating with every smile and gesture.

"My wife, this jade pendant is for you."

Xiao Yu took out a translucent jade pendant from his pocket and placed it in Shen Youyu's hand.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this jade pendant is carved from the finest jade, with exquisite craftsmanship and an absolute value.

"This is the prize money from the last poem I wrote."

Before Shen Youyu could ask, Xiao Yu had already spoken up.

"this……"

Shen Youyu, who was once a courtesan, could immediately recognize the value of the jade pendant.

Her beautiful eyes lit up, and a happy expression appeared on her face, but the next second, she stuffed the jade pendant back into Xiao Yu's hand.

"Wife, you don't like it?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

"no……"

Shen Youyu shook her head and explained softly, "I am already very happy to know Shilang's feelings. You should give this jade pendant to Sister Mulan or Sister Aoshuang."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu looked at Shen Youyu seriously... Well, it wasn't a feigned retreat, nor was it just idle chatter.

There really is such a wonderful wife in this world!

Xiao Yu said in a gentle and affectionate tone, "This jade pendant is for you. Even if they marry me in the future, they will still call you 'elder sister'."

The subtext is that Shen Youyu ranks first in his heart, and the other three wives are like younger sisters.

Jin Mulan and Liu Aoshuang were both martial artists, so the jade pendant held no appeal for them. It was a pity that Xiao Yu only had one Youlong Sword; otherwise, giving them each one would have been perfect...

As for Murong Xian, she hasn't come to see Xiao Yu since she left the Xiao Prince's Mansion last time, and it's unclear whether she's changed her mind.

"He's probably been locked up by the prime minister."

Xiao Yu guessed to himself.

The four women are all in different situations. Shen Youyu is an orphan, and as long as Xiao Yu agrees, they can be together without hesitation. Jin Mulan became the first female general of the Great Xia Dynasty through her own military achievements, and even if her parents object, they can't do anything about it.

Liu Aoxue's father is the number one grandmaster in the capital and the dean of the martial arts academy. He would not allow his daughter to share a husband with another woman. The same goes for Murong Xian. His father is the prime minister of the court. Even Liu Jingtao, a martial artist, cannot accept this. How could Murong Zhong possibly agree with it?

"Why."

Xiao Yu sighed silently in his heart, but his face remained tender and affectionate.

"Juro..."

Shen Youyu was moved. She threw herself into his arms, rested her head on Xiao Yu's shoulder, and said softly, "I really have to thank God for meeting Shi Lang."

Her fair cheeks were slightly flushed, her beautiful eyes were full of affection, and she looked up at Xiao Yu, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

Looking at Shen Youyu's plump and alluring red lips, Xiao Yu did not hesitate and lowered his head to kiss them.

Soon, their robes slowly fell off...

The room was filled with enchanting beauty.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Xiao Yu felt refreshed and incredibly comfortable.

It was already dark outside.

Shen Youyu curled up in Xiao Yu's arms like a kitten, her beautiful eyes gently squinting, her face full of contentment.

"My wife, I've discovered that you know more than I do. I'd like to continue learning from you."

Since it was already dark, Xiao Yu decided to continue his nightlife.

"Hate……"

The young fish did not refuse.

...

the next day.

Xiao Yu went to the courtyard early to practice shooting.

He was able to become a Grandmaster because he practiced martial arts every day, regardless of the sweltering heat, and Xiao Yu didn't want to waste this talent.

Therefore, Xiao Yu still practices shooting for half an hour every day.

"Your Highness."

After Xiao Yu finished practicing his shooting, Xiao Zhan came over and said, "When I took the brothers to buy ingredients just now, we received some news..."

"explain."

Xiao Yu put the Dragon Gallant Spear aside and wiped his hands with a damp towel.

"Baoyuelou has been raided."

Xiao Zhan's face also showed a hint of disbelief as he said, "It was a very dashing and beautiful woman. She led a group of soldiers to surround Baoyue Tower, then questioned them one by one, and finally released more than a dozen women who had been sold to Baoyue Tower. Afterwards, she put Lin Mama in shackles."

"Then what?"

Xiao Yu looked curious and said, "Duke Liu and the others didn't react."

"No……"

Xiao Zhan shook his head, also looking puzzled: "Duke Liu did not stop them, or rather... no one dared to stop them. They just let that lady search and interrogate them at will, and then lock up Lin Mama."

"That's strange?"

Xiao Yu sensed that something was wrong.

You have to understand the background of Baoyue Tower... Even Xiao Yu couldn't possibly lead troops to surround Baoyue Tower and then lock up Mama Lin.

It's not that he can't do it; Xiao Yu could lead his troops to surround Baoyue Tower and lock up Lin Mama, but he couldn't do it without anyone stopping him!

Just like last time when Yang Niannian was taken away... Back then, Liu Yunfei came to stop him, but was killed by Xiao Yu, and then Duke Liu came to stop him!

If Jin Mulan hadn't been there, and the Emperor's decree hadn't arrived, a bloody battle would have been inevitable!

Do you know who that lady is?

Xiao Yu asked.

"All I know is that they came from the palace..."

Xiao Zhan thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "After receiving the news, I rushed over, but I didn't see that official! But after inquiring, I learned that he was an official from the palace, about twenty years old, handsome and ruthless!"

"knew."

Xiao Yu racked his brains, but couldn't recall anyone like that.

Perhaps Jin Mulan knows her. Next time I see my wife, I'll ask her about it... Xiao Yu thought to himself.
