Xiao Zhao smiled and said, "It's okay, just go slowly."
He sat in the pavilion in the front yard for entertaining guests, drinking tea quietly!
After Li Guanshi reported to Yuan Xueyue, she hurried over. Seeing that it was Master Xiao Zhao, she immediately stepped forward and saluted.
"Master Xiao Zhao has arrived, and I'm sorry for not welcoming you."
Xiao Zhao said, "We didn't go out to meet you. We are all in the capital. Madam, you are too kind."
Yuan Xueyue signaled with her eyes and Cuiping went to get another cup of tea.
She nodded slightly and sat down.
"I wonder what important matter has brought you to visit our house?" Yuan Xueyue said calmly.
Even if the person in front of her is a trusted subordinate of the palace, Lord Xiao Zhao, she can still remain calm.
Overall, Lord Xiao Zhao does not have a very strong aura of majesty. Judging from the last communication at Zhuangzi, he was very kind.
Yuan Xueyue was sure that he was not here to cause trouble.
Xiao Zhao said, "Nothing, I just stopped by to visit your general. Is he not here?"
Yuan Xueyue said, "The general is out on business. If you are in a hurry, I can go get you."
Xiao Zhao waved her hand.
"No need. I heard that Madam has been very busy lately taking care of the relatives in the mansion. What about the account books of the farm?"
When these words came out, Yuan Xueyue was stunned.
Master Xiao Zhao knows?
Yuan Xueyue immediately stood up and knelt down, saying, "Sir, please calm down. I was just speaking my mind in a moment of impulsiveness, and that's why I used you as an excuse!"
Xiao Zhao smiled.
This lady is so smart that I can understand what she means as soon as she opens her mouth.
Xiao Zhao stood up and saluted,
"Madam, please don't be like this. I am only here on the orders of the prince to inquire about something. Please take a seat, madam."
When Yuan Xueyue heard this, she got up.
Cuiping brought in the new tea and while she was filtering and steeping it, Yuan Xueyue explained, "The tea in our mansion may not be as good as the one in the palace. Please don't be offended, my Lord."
Xiao Zhao was surprised, "Is the wine at the palace good?"
How could he not know!
It’s not like he’s ever tasted the good tea from the prince’s table!
Except for that time, when the lady came, the prince took it out specially!
Xiao Zhao was always confused.
So, I should pay more attention to the subordinates of the Guo family.
Maybe Prince Xian really has high hopes for the Guo family!
The mystery behind this made Xiao Zhao very confused.
Yuan Xueyue was stunned. "Sir, you've never drunk it?"
Unbelievable!
She thought that Lord Xiao Zhao was, after all, a trusted subordinate of the prince and a young master with a title, so how could he have never drunk the prince's tea?
Xiao Zhao seemed to understand everything.
It seems that the lady has misunderstood, he said.
"I really haven't drunk it. Madam and the general are lucky. The prince treats you well."
Yuan Xueyue, “…”
I didn’t expect that Guo Liangxian was really valued by King Xian!
Seeing his wife feeling lonely, Xiao Zhao felt a little embarrassed and said, "Since your general is not here, I will not disturb you."
"Wait a minute." Yuan Xueyue said.
"Since you are here, I should let you review Zhuangzi's account books to avoid criticism. All of this is due to the grace of the palace."
Yuan Xueyue waved her hand, signaling Cuiping to get the account book.
But Xiao Zhao shook her head and said,
"No need. Our prince won't care about the harvest. It's all for your Guo family. Madam, you can use it as you like."
Yuan Xueyue said, "How can this be? The prince has treated our general well, so we should accept it with a smile."
After saying this, Yuan Xueyue stood up and decided to go there in person.
Xiao Zhao also stood up quickly and said,
"That's really not necessary, ma'am, you're too polite!"
"Our prince really has no such intention. He doesn't even care about these harvests. Madam and General, please feel free to use them."
Yuan Xueyue said, "No! What if the prince no longer favors our general in the future? We have to give the prince some benefits."
Xiao Zhao, “…”
Why does this lady say not to give it to me?
Why would their prince want such a small amount of silver?
It had only been established for less than half a year, and the harvest was less than 500 taels. It was just a newly established farm.
"No need, madam. Please stay. I will be leaving now and will visit you again another day."
After Xiao Zhao finished speaking, she bowed and turned away.
Manager Li stepped forward and had to lead Lady Xiao Zhao out.
“…” Yuan Xueyue stood there in a daze.
Really don’t want it?
Is the prince really determined to support the Guo family?
Cuiping was also in a dilemma, "Madam, should I go get it again?"
Yuan Xueyue shook her head. "No need. Let's go see my buddies."
In the courtyard next to the pear garden.
The houses on three sides are closed and do not disturb each other!
But he heard the maid shouting, "Madam, you are here!"
The doors of each house were open.
"Mother!"
Xingger was the fastest and ran to Yuan Xueyue's side.
"Xing'er isn't going to school today?" Yuan Xueyue wondered, reaching out to touch the scars on his face.
Xing'er said,
"It's all Guo Ziji's fault! If it weren't for him, my son wouldn't be able to go to school today. The maid said that with such an injury, he should rest for a day to avoid causing misunderstandings to the teacher."
He has only been in school for less than half a year and he has become so lazy.
Yuan Xueyue felt bad, but now she has let it go and said with a smile,
"Okay, if Xing'er doesn't want to go, then don't go."
She would not force Xingger again. She had helped him once and warned him once before, but Xingger could not remember.
Is he simple-minded or just stubborn?
Hearing Xingger's accusation, Jiger stepped forward and saluted,
"Mother! Don't listen to Xing'er's nonsense. He doesn't like me and has been speaking disrespectfully to me!"
"Mother! I am obviously his eldest brother. Why does he disrespect me like this?"
