The winter in Beijing is not as cold as outside the Great Wall. Plus, it is summer now and the dog days are about to begin. It is not easy to buy these thick fur boots.

Qin Hexuan accompanied Qingtian to visit almost all the famous shoe and hat shops, embroidery workshops and fur shops in the capital, but still found nothing.

It was almost noon. Neither of them had any snacks this morning, so Qin Hexuan was already feeling a little hungry, not to mention Qingtian.

Even Qin Hexuan could hear the rumbling of her stomach.

Qin Hexuan simply took Qingtian to Mrs. Ye's restaurant, intending to have some food first before discussing other things.

When the guy saw that the people coming were Qin Hexuan and Qingtian, he hurried out to greet them.

"I'll take you two up to the third floor. It's quiet there."

Now everyone in the restaurant knows Qingtian's identity, and their attitude towards her has visibly changed from friendly to respectful, even more so than towards Qin Hexuan.

Qin Hexuan directly ordered a few dishes that Qingtian liked to eat from the waiter, and then said: "Okay, you go to the kitchen to serve the dishes, and we will go upstairs ourselves."

Qingtian felt a little depressed because he had been shopping for the whole morning but still couldn't find suitable leather boots.

After going upstairs and sitting down, Qin Hexuan began to help her find a solution.

"How about this, we buy a pair of good cotton boots, and then find a piece of thick leather, and ask someone to make a pair of leather boots as soon as possible tonight?"

"Will it be too late?" Qingtian looked up at Qin Hexuan and asked.

Qin Hexuan was suddenly speechless.

If this method works, there is no reason for those embroidery workshops to push the work out. I think it is too late.

Seeing this, Qingtian suddenly became dispirited again and lay back on the table.

Qin Hexuan wanted to help Qingtian, but he didn't know much about it.

So after asking Qingtian for his opinion, he ordered Songtao to go to Prince Rui's Mansion and ask Princess Rui if there was any way to help solve the problem.

Princess Rui is at home today. In order to welcome Qingtian back home for the first time, she has everyone in the mansion running around.

On a sunny day, the bedroom and the courtyard had been cleaned spotlessly.

It can be said that the only thing left is to ask someone to go up to the roof and clean all the glazed tiles one by one.

It's so clean that even if you suddenly feel like rolling on the ground on a sunny day, your clothes won't get dirty.

Finally it was lunch time and the servants breathed a sigh of relief, finally being able to take a break.

This was the first time they had encountered such a situation while working at Prince Rui's mansion. They had never cleaned the house so carefully during the New Year in previous years.

Fortunately, Princess Rui was not the type of person who mistreat her servants, and she even asked the kitchen to prepare two more delicious dishes for everyone at noon.

The servants gathered together and chatted while eating.

"The bedroom and the courtyard have been cleaned up. Is there any other work to do this afternoon?"

"Who knows? The Empress has been extremely nervous these past few days in order to welcome the young master back to live with her. She has been burning calming incense for several days now."

"I actually think the young master seems quite well behaved and doesn't seem picky at all."

"Yes, the young master is very cute, and his eyebrows and eyes are very similar to the queen's."

The housekeeper had been listening to everyone chatting without saying anything, but after hearing this, he finally couldn't help but give everyone a reminder.

"Don't say that too early. Didn't you see that the few people the Queen arranged to serve the young master were all sent back in less than an hour.

"For this reason, the entire mansion was cleared out, and Madam Kong's entire family was sent to the farm.

"So I advise you all not to overthink anything else and just focus on how to serve the young master well."

After hearing what the housekeeper said, everyone immediately gave up their previous thoughts and lowered their heads to eat.

However, before everyone finished lunch, they received the news that Song Tao, who was with Young Master Qin, had come to visit. The Empress went out without even finishing her lunch.

"Didn't the queen tell us what to do in the afternoon before she left?" the housekeeper asked the visitor.

The visitor shook his head and said, "The queen left in a hurry. She only asked her personal maid to go to the storeroom to find some things, then changed her clothes and left. She didn't say anything else."

Just when everyone was thinking that everything was fine and they could rest in the afternoon, they heard the housekeeper say in a deep voice: "In that case, everyone should work harder this afternoon and clean up the back garden.

"I won't hold everyone to the same standards as the young master's courtyard.

"But I have to clean up all the flowers and trees that need pruning, all the dead branches and leaves that need clearing, and all the duckweed and the lotus leaves that are no longer in good condition in the pond.

"Also, those overgrown roses and other things should all be trimmed today.

"If you hurt the young master, you will all be in trouble."

The servants were very dissatisfied when they heard this, as the back garden was not their responsibility.

Even if the young master was injured in the back garden, the only ones who would be reprimanded would be the housekeeper, the steward in charge of the back garden, and the gardeners.

But who made it so that the person in charge of the back garden is the housekeeper's son-in-law!

Even if everyone was dissatisfied, they had to go to the back garden to continue working after lunch.

On the other hand, Princess Rui received news from Qin Hexuan and was overjoyed when she heard Song Tao say that Qingtian agreed to come to her for help.

"They're just leather boots!" Princess Rui said with a smile. "There are many leather boots and cotton boots in the storeroom, gifts from the emperor and others. Your Highness rarely uses them. This time, take them all and let her choose."

So Princess Rui didn't even bother to eat. She ordered people to go to the warehouse to find all the leather boots and cotton boots. She went back to her room to change into clothes for going out, and hurriedly took people to Youji Restaurant.

Before Qin Hexuan and Qingtian had lunch, Princess Rui had already arrived with people and shoes.

Several servants from the palace followed her in, put the two large boxes they were carrying on the floor, and then retreated.

"Aunt, what is this?" Qin Hexuan felt that it should be leather boots or something, but how many would it take to carry two large boxes?

And from the sound of them falling to the ground just now, it seems that the things inside are not light!

Princess Rui's personal maid hurried forward and opened the two boxes, revealing that they were full of boots.

"This box has cotton boots, and this box has leather boots. I don't know if you..." Princess Rui wanted to say your father, but she felt something was wrong, so she could only vaguely say, "I don't know what size shoes he wears. If the shoes are a little too big, it's okay. You can use insoles, but if they are too small, it will be difficult to deal with."

Seeing this, Qingtian immediately took out Ye Lao Da's pair of boots, which were already without leather and fur, from his schoolbag, jumped down from the chair and said, "Thank you, mother. Let me try them on to see if they are the right size."
