Chapter 176 That’s the Crown Princess
"Let's go to Jubao Pavilion. I haven't been there since it opened." Xia Yutong said with a smile.
When the store opened, Xiaoxuan asked her to go and choose some things she liked, but unfortunately, she was busy and didn't go.
"Master, Jubao Pavilion is far away from here. We really don't want to take a carriage?" Xia Xiang was afraid that the master would be tired.
In fact, she was mainly worried about her master's belly. If she was really pregnant, she would not be able to walk.
How could Xia Yutong not understand the people around her? "It's okay, just walk slowly." She didn't plan to run.
Besides, it doesn’t necessarily mean that she is pregnant.
They walked and shopped, and fortunately Xia Yutong didn't lack anything, otherwise it would not be so easy for the three of them.
However, Xia Yutong saw some interesting toys and bought some for Gen'er and the others.
As soon as they stepped into the Treasure Pavilion, Xia Xue, with her sharp eyes, saw the person she had bumped into before.
"Master, it's that girl." Pointing at Lu Anyi not far away, he whispered to his master.
Xia Yutong looked in the direction of Xia Xue's hand. She didn't know this girl and had never seen her before, but she felt that she looked very familiar.
"Do you know who this girl is from?" Xia Yutong asked.
Xia Xue and Xia Xiang shook their heads.
There happened to be a waiter behind them who heard their conversation and kindly explained, "Hello, sir. That young lady is from the household of Mr. Lu from the Ministry of Revenue. She is Miss Lu."
Hearing what the waiter said, the three were startled, but quickly calmed down.
"You mean, she is the eldest daughter of the Lu family?" Xia Xue was surprised.
Whether it was Mrs. Lu or Lord Lu, they had dealt with each other a lot.
But this Miss Lu is too...
Xia Yutong was very happy.
"Since it belongs to Lord Lu's family, Xiaoxue, you didn't pay enough for the meal." Xia Yutong teased Xia Xue.
They knew Mrs. Lu very well, and she was a stingy person.
If he knew that she had bumped into his precious daughter today, she would never have a peaceful life in the future.
"Master, please help me." Because she and Xia Xiang followed the master's time, and the master loved to make some small things, and Lord Lu was in charge of the money in the Ministry of Revenue.
His favorite place to go was the Prince's Mansion, where he loved to rob good things from the Princess and take them back to exchange for silver.
Because of this, he became the most unpopular person in the Prince's Mansion, no doubt about it.
"Haha, you're done. It's best not to let Miss Lu see you, otherwise, you will never be able to escape from Lord Lu's clutches in the future." Xia Xiang said without trying to save him.
Lord Lu is the biggest shadow in their hearts. There is no way around it. His desperate behavior is really too scary.
"Otherwise, you should go and compensate Miss Lu now." Xia Xiang couldn't bear to see her good sister being persecuted by Lord Lu, so she suggested.
Xia Xue thought about it and realized that it was true. She would rather compensate Miss Lu than be found by Lord Lu.
Her small treasury is not enough to fill Lord Lu's teeth.
"You have a point." Xia Xue agreed, and then said to her master: "Master, you said that I bought jewelry for Miss Lu, can this be compensated?"
Listening to their conversation, Xia Yutong was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Is Lord Lu so scary?
Isn't it just a little shameless?
Isn't it just that he is a bit of a scoundrel?
Isn't it just...
Well, she admitted that Lord Lu really refreshed her understanding of the ancients.
"I think it's okay."
Seeing that her master felt the same way, Xia Xue immediately ran towards Miss Lu.
She took a quick look and patted her chest, "It's okay, it's okay." She breathed a sigh of relief.
The things she chose were not expensive.
Having followed her master for so long and seen so many things, she can tell good from bad at a glance.
"Ms. Lu, do you like these things?" Opportunities are rare and will never come back again, so she must seize the opportunity.
Her sudden voice startled the master and servant who were choosing things.
Yaer jumped up and said, "Oh my god, I was scared to death." She turned around and saw a familiar figure. She slapped her chest and cursed, "What's wrong with you? Are you walking without making any sound? Are you a ghost?"
Seeing Ya'er and the others frightened, Xia Xue became even more frightened and immediately explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Xia Xue apologized sincerely: "I saw you here, and thought about how I bumped into Miss Lu before, so I came over to ask." She was innocent, and she didn't expect them to be so timid.
"Hmph, I think you did it on purpose. You want to scare us to death." Yaer's mouth really deserves to be from Lord Lu's family.
Miss Lu frowned: "Miss, do you know me?" She noticed that she had just called herself Miss Lu.
She seldom goes out and is not close to outsiders. Very few people know her.
This person was able to call out my last name immediately, so I think he knows me.
Xia Xue immediately waved her hands and said, "No, Miss Lu, don't misunderstand me. I don't know you. The waiter told me when I first came in." She was afraid that people would misunderstand her, so she explained immediately.
After hearing her words, Miss Lu smiled and said, "It's okay, you don't have to be like this." So that's how it is. It seems that she really doesn't know herself.
"Yes, yes, Miss Lu, did you pick all these things?" Xia Xue felt that it would be best to compensate now.
Miss Lu didn't know what she meant. She looked at the items on the tray and found that they were indeed her own choices.
She doesn't have much monthly salary. Although her parents love her, her monthly allowance is the same as everyone else in the family, so she can only buy these.
She had almost spent all her savings on buying these things.
"Well, I picked it." She was a little confused: "But is there a girl you like?" If that was the case, she would give it to her.
Xia Xue shook her head and waved her hand: "No, it's like this. I was reckless before and accidentally bumped into Miss Lu. Now I bump into her again, so I have to apologize to Miss Lu. So, these things are mine."
Xia Xue is so sincere and generous. Only she knows whether she feels sad or not.
"That's not possible." Miss Lu rejected Xia Xue without a second thought. "You paid for my bill at Juxianlou earlier, so we're even."
In fact, she was a little worried, afraid that this person might want to establish a relationship with her and ask her father for help.
She couldn't accept it.
Xia Xue was not good at speaking. She was extremely anxious but didn't know how to express herself. She couldn't say that she was afraid that her father would come to settle the score with her.
Even if Lord Lu is shameless and thick-skinned, the person in front of her is his daughter, and she cannot speak ill of her father in front of her daughter.
Xia Xiang and Xia Yutong couldn't bear to watch it anymore and came over.
"Miss Lu, don't think too much about it. Just bear with it. If there's anything you don't understand, you can go back and ask your father. Just say it was sent by Xia Xue."
After Xia Yutong finished speaking, she pulled Xia Xue over and said, "Okay, don't worry."
Xia Yutong happened to be with the waiter, so she said to him directly, "All the expenses this lady has incurred here today will be charged to me."
The first floor sells some jewelry, and there is also a second floor, where most of the items sold are more novel.
Fortunately, there are not many people here now, otherwise I would definitely be surrounded by people.
"Yes, I will listen to you, Madam."
Seeing the three people go upstairs, Miss Lu lost her mood for shopping and no longer liked the things she had originally liked.
First, she didn't want to accept favors from others, and second, she didn't want to cause trouble for her father.
But Yaer thought that man was bragging.
"Well, Miss, since they let us take it, then we should not be polite."
After saying that, she called the waiter and brought out several sets of jewelry that the young lady had liked but was reluctant to buy.
"That's all. You heard what the lady said. Put it all on her account."
These waiters were all Xia Zixuan and Jiang Ce's men, so of course they recognized who the visitor was.
Of course she could afford to give it to her master's sister, the Crown Princess.
"Yes, everything is recorded in Madam's account." The second brother smiled.
"That's good."
"Then pack all these things up." Yaer felt so relieved when she took them.
The young lady was already unhappy about being hit, and now she was more than happy to let them vent their anger.
Miss Lu immediately spoke up to stop Yaer, but the waiter was faster and wrapped the things in no time.
Hand it to Yaer.
"Miss." Yaer knew that the young lady was angry, but she also felt unfair for her.
Well, she was a little petty. It wasn't a big deal, but she just felt sorry for the young lady.
"Forget it, let's go back home." Miss Lu didn't want to say anything more, so she went back to ask her father.
After Miss Lu left, Xia Xue upstairs breathed a sigh of relief: "No need to be afraid now." She patted her chest and said.
"Okay, let's go and take a look." She didn't like anything here.
The better ones were sent to her house by Xiaoxuan.
"Master, aren't you going to take a look?" Xia Xiang was a little confused. "Master, do you think Miss Lu has disappointed you?"
Xia Yutong shook her head: "Not really, she has a weak personality." After saying that, she smiled, "But that girl, she really deserves to come from Lord Lu's mansion."
After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, the three of them strolled around the streets casually.
After Xia Yutong calmed down, she took the things she bought for her sons back home.
The other side.
After Miss Lu returned home and learned that her father had returned, she immediately went to the study.
She is very sensible and seldom comes over on weekdays.
This time, she had to come.
Mr. Lu was a little surprised. Why did his good daughter come here? "Hurry up and let the young lady in."
Lu Anyi walked in slowly.
"Daddy."
"Why did Yi'er think of the study today?" Lord Lu was puzzled. Lu Anyi did not hide anything from her father and directly told him about her experiences in Juxian Building and Jubao Pavilion.
After listening to it, Lord Lu laughed and said, "Haha, just keep it. Yaer did a good job, so take it as a reward." Lord Lu was so happy.
It's really rare to be able to please that girl so much.
"Daddy, what is going on?" She still didn't understand.
"Do you know who the three people you saw today are?" Sister Lu kept the secret.
Lu Anyi shook her head and said, "My daughter doesn't know."
"Those were the Crown Princess and her personal maid. The one who compensated you was named Xia Xue, but she was a top favorite of the Crown Princess." Sister Lu explained to her daughter with a smile.
"Ah." Lu Anyi was shocked. "Then let's return the things." She knew a little about the conflict between her father and the prince.
"What are you going to return? If you don't, huh." Lord Lu was unhappy. "It's Ya'er who has good taste and knows how to take the valuables. Otherwise, I would have to find her. You dare to hit my daughter? No way."
Lord Lu is so shameless.
Lu Anyi didn't know what to say, but her father was obviously very happy, which made her even more confused.
"You, don't think too much. Just accept it. These will be your dowry in the future." If the Crown Princess takes action, it will definitely not be cheap.
"Well then, father, would you like me to go to the Crown Prince's residence to express my gratitude?" It was a reward from the Crown Princess, and she felt uneasy holding it.
"No need, Dad will go tomorrow." Since he was going to express gratitude, of course he had to go.
Compared to Lord Lu's place, things are not so happy in the Prince's Mansion.
Xia Xue counted the last bit of her private money and took it all out reluctantly.
"Wow, master, this is all I have. Can the money I owe you be deducted from my monthly salary?" She became poor.
Wen Li was also confused about these two people, "What happened?"
Without waiting for Xia Yutong to speak, Xia Xue started complaining to her master.
After hearing this, Wen Li laughed, "You are stupid, it's okay if you don't compensate. If Lord Lu came to your house, wouldn't you know to hide? Would he dare to come to my Prince's Mansion to look for someone?"
This brain is really...
When Xia Xue heard what her master said, she immediately realized: "That's right, the worst that can happen is to avoid him. I, why didn't I think of that?"
Xia Yutong and Xia Xiang were a little embarrassed, they didn't expect this.
Although Lord Lu is shameless, he abides by the rules strictly and does not overstep the boundaries in the slightest.
"You guys are really scared by him. It doesn't matter. I'll pay for the money." Wen Li was very happy.
Xia Yutong kicked him and told him not to be too proud.
Wen Li also told them that they must attend the wedding of Lord Lu’s daughter.
"Master, I'm going there that day and I'm going to eat it back." Xia Xue said childishly.
"You, stop making trouble and go find Weng'er and Chang'er." The two little guys ran to some corner of the mansion again.
"Hey, I'll go right away."
After the two men left, the servants in the room also left.
When Wen Li saw that there was no one around, he stood up and sat next to her, pulling her into his arms.
"Feeling better?" he asked.
Xia Yutong nodded and said, "Yeah, I'm better." She didn't know what was wrong with her these days.
However, Xia Xiang said that it was possible that she was pregnant again, but she herself had not revealed it.
Xia Xue went to find the young master and the others, but Xia Xiang was still thinking about her own master, so she invited the court doctor over after a while.
Looking at the people guarding outside, she didn't dare to go in directly. "Master," she called out from outside.
Xia Yutong and Wen Li heard it of course. "What's the matter?" Wen Li asked.
"My lord, I will ask the court doctor to come and check your pulse." She didn't dare to ask the court doctor to check whether her master was pregnant, for fear of causing a misunderstanding.
"Why are you feeling unwell?" Wen Li immediately became nervous, "Come in quickly."
Seeing that she ignored him, Wen Li immediately let someone in.
The court physician was also an old man, and he took the Crown Princess's pulse very skillfully.
