"Prince Xian, stop joking. My wife is not unhappy." Guo Liangxian said with a wry smile, his face looking very embarrassed.
Dai Yixuan smiled faintly, "Is that so? Then this king is dazzled."
Guo Liangxian immediately waved his hands, "No, no, no! Prince Xian won't be dazzled!..."
Suddenly, he was stunned again. If Prince Xian was not dazzled, did it mean that his wife really showed an unhappy expression?
But why did King Xian say this, and why should we pay attention to it?
Guo Liangxian was very conflicted, but he was even more nervous at the moment. Sitting face to face with King Xian, he had forgotten what to do next.
"Come, try the fine tea grown in the south. It's sweet and delicious."
As Dai Yixuan spoke, he actually raised his hand and held up the teapot, first pouring half of the tea into the cup in front of Yuan Xueyue, and then filling Guo Liangxian's cup!
The tea spilled out.
Guo Liangxian was anxious and quickly took the teapot and said,
"You are too polite, Lord Xian! These will be enough for the future generations!"
This scene made Xiao Zhao, who was sitting in the waterside pavilion, look confused!
Prince Xian actually poured the tea himself!
What is the identity of General Guo’s wife...?
Xiao Zhao held her chin with her hand and thought deeply, recalling carefully the time in Lucheng where King Xian held a martial arts competition.
The prefect also helped to organize the event, and General Guo’s wife was the daughter of the local prefect.
Xiao Zhao was very confused, but what was the connection?
Prince Xian put down the teapot and said, "Madam Guo, please have a taste."
Dai Yixuan first picked up the teacup and savored it carefully.
Yuan Xueyue lowered her eyes, feeling very puzzled. She had already been low-key enough.
Guo Liangxian was also startled and said, "Prince Xian asked you to taste the tea, so try it quickly."
As a last resort, Yuan Xueyue had to pick up the teacup, blow on it, and then drink it all in one gulp.
"I've finished drinking." Yuan Xueyue put down the teacup and said in a flat tone.
"What does it smell like?" King Xian asked again.
Guo Liangxian was full of doubts, "......?"
Yuan Xueyue said, "It's dry in the mouth when you first put it in, but sweet after you swallow it, and it leaves a lasting aftertaste."
Dai Yixuan smiled faintly and nodded.
"Madam, you are right. You have a good way of drinking tea. Another cup, please."
He reached out and picked up the teapot in front of Guo Liangxian, and personally poured half a cup for Yuan Xueyue.
Guo Liangxian, “…”
Forget it, as long as I can gain the appreciation of King Xian, there will be benefits in the future, so I will just endure it for now!
"King Xian is so kind to us. My wife and I are very grateful." Guo Liangxian said with a grin.
But Dai Yixuan didn't even glance at Guo Liangxian, and continued to face Yuan Xueyue and said,
"Madam, why don't you look up?"
Yuan Xueyue said indifferently, "A humble servant cannot be disrespectful. I hope Prince Xian will forgive me."
Prince Xian then looked at Guo Liangxian and said,
"I see. Madam, you are well-mannered and know etiquette. How can you still favor your concubine and mistreat your wife?"
Guo Liangxian bowed his head repeatedly to apologize, "I'm sorry, King Xian, I was confused. That was only made by my mother at home. I didn't allow it. If I knew, I would definitely stop it!"
Dai Yixuan said,
"It's okay to stop me, but your salary is not small. Is it because my old residence is too big and not enough for my expenses?"
Guo Liangxian was shocked.
His mind was working rapidly, thinking about what Dai Yixuan meant!
Do you want him to say it’s too big or not too big?
Guo Liangxian bowed and said,
"It is indeed quite large. The salary is not enough to support the mansion. Only with the careful management of my wife can it last for a few years."
While speaking, Guo Liangxian did not forget to praise Yuan Xueyue.
As expected, Dai Yixuan said in a very satisfied tone,
"Yes, your wife is a good housewife. You should treat her well. If you want to be a general, you must set an example for the people."
Guo Liangxian nodded and said, "Prince Xian is absolutely right. I came here this time to see if I could help with the affairs of the small manor."
"The money in the mansion is very tight. My wife has been working hard for the mansion and it has caused a lot of trouble. My old mother also often blames me."
Dai Yixuan's tone was slightly cold, "Oh? Blame?"
Guo Liangxian immediately changed his words and said, "No, no, no, I'm not blaming you, I'm just giving you some advice! I was wrong."
“…”
The atmosphere became cold. Guo Liangxian knew that he had said the wrong thing and made King Xian unhappy.
Yuan Xueyue said,
"I'm not blaming her. My mother-in-law is very good at managing things and has given me, her daughter-in-law, a lot of guidance."
Dai Yixuan then said, "That's fine, we get along well."
Then he said,
"Well, let Xiao Zhao accompany you to run a small farm someday. Otherwise, it will be difficult to manage such a large family, and it will also trouble your wife."
Dai Yixuan instructed Guo Liangxian.
Guo Liangxian's eyes sparkled, and he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you, King Xian! Thank you, King Xian!"
"Xueyue, why don't you thank us together?"
Seeing this, Yuan Xueyue also knelt and bowed, saying, "Thank you, King Xian."
Dai Yixuan said, "No need. Your Majesty has troubled General Guo. It was my negligence, and I will make up for it now."
Guo Liangxian continued, "Prince Xian has been so kind to me. I am deeply grateful!"
Dai Yixuan said, "Since you are so grateful, you should do your part and stop messing around."
"Yes, yes, I will keep this in mind!"
After coming out of Prince Xian’s Mansion, Guo Liangxian felt relaxed!
With the consent of King Xian, Xiao Zhao was on the way to lead them out and agreed to go for a visit the day after tomorrow.
Guo Liangxian put the King of Xian’s strange behavior behind him!
In the carriage.
"Xueyue, thank you for your hard work this time. After the village is stable, I will accompany you back to your parents' home." Guo Liangxian said.
"Oh."
Yuan Xueyue chuckled.
She knew that with Zhuangzi around, Guo Liangxian would be busy!
It may take half a year at the shortest and more than a year at the longest for Zhuangzi to stabilize!
She never thought that she would be able to return to her parents' home as soon as possible to discuss the divorce with her father.
Yuan Xueyue wanted to go back by herself so that she could explain everything clearly!
If Guo Liangxian comes along, who knows what will happen!
"I understand. General, you are busy. Don't worry about me." Yuan Xueyue's eyes were always looking outside.
Guo Liangxian knew that he had wronged her and comforted her,
"Really! Without you, Prince Xian wouldn't give in so easily. Go back, and I'll pick two more maids to serve you!"
Yuan Xueyue said, "No need, Cuiping serves us well."
She doesn't have the time to manage the informants planted by others!
Guo Liangxian was silent.
He also looked outside the curtain, recalling the scenes that had just happened carefully in his mind.
The behavior of the Xian King is... inexplicably strange?
Could it be that it’s just a fate because of the lady’s name?
Guo Liangxian was certain in his heart that since he was appreciated by King Xian because he and Xian shared the same thoughts, the same should be true for his wife!
He felt relieved and returned home in a carriage in a good mood.
As soon as the news arrived at the mansion, Manager Li ran quickly and conveyed the good news to the entire general's mansion!
"Prince Xian has promised the general to help run the small farm!"
Nian was also shocked and immediately told Mother Cui to arrange the kitchen so that everyone could gather together tonight and have a good time!
