Chapter 290 The Stepmother Goes Mad
I have to say, the emperor’s words are very useful.
At noon, the Marquis' Mansion sent someone to deliver Wang Yun to Xiao Yan.
Also traveling with them were the young eunuchs from the palace.
Lu Qiniang prepared a red envelope for the young eunuch.
The young eunuch, who called himself Xiao Puzi, waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't be polite. If I accept it, I won't be able to explain to my godfather when I get back."
Only then did Lu Qiniang realize that Xiao Puzi was Teng Wenfu's godson.
That needs to be expressed even more.
"Take it." Lu Qiniang said, "Just consider it a gift from your sister."
My dear uncle's son, please don't call her sister.
Only then did Xiao Puzi accept it.
Xiao Yan no longer had the mind to care about anything else at the moment. He was looking at his skinny "Mrs. Ru" affectionately.
He reached out and touched Wangyun's head, his palm sinking into Wangyun's mane.
Wang Yun rubbed his hand obediently, and her warm breath sprayed on his wrist.
"Dad, Dad," San Ya came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of brown sugar water, the ochre-red water swaying in the bowl, "Can I feed it?"
Because her family bought a horse, she also knew about people's preferences for horses.
"Come here." Xiao Yan waved.
When San Ya happily stood on tiptoe and held the bowl in front of Wang Yun, the straw butterfly pendant trembled on her pigtails.
When Wang Yun's wet tongue rolled around San Ya's fingertips, the little girl giggled.
Xiao Yan looked at the man and the horse with a gentle smile on his face.
Little Puzi returned to report to Teng Wenfu: "The horses have been sent, but, the princess doesn't look well."
"Something not presentable." Teng Wenfu didn't know who he was scolding, and asked, "Apart from the horse, she didn't mention returning the other things to Xiao Yan?"
"Not at all. As for this horse, the princess even ordered that the saddle and all other things must not be taken away."
You know, a saddle for Xiao Yan also cost hundreds of taels of silver.
"How can you be so blind?" Teng Wenfu said with disgust. "Your Majesty is giving her a chance."
As a result, her behavior was completely disgraceful. She could not expect the emperor to take care of her in the future.
The seventh princess lost the big picture for the sake of a small matter and cut off her future path.
Teng Wenfu sent Xiao Puzi away and went in to report to the emperor.
Sure enough, the emperor specifically asked whether the Marquis's Mansion had returned Xiao Yan's other private property to him.
Hearing that no one had returned the favor, the Emperor shook his head and finally said, "Just think of it as Xiao Yan using these things to repay the kindness of raising me. Oh, and those brothers of Xiao Yan's are all useless. They didn't even bother to help persuade the people, and they thought they were getting a great deal."
Teng Wenfu didn't dare to comment, but he couldn't help thinking in his heart, look, for that little bit of money, he made his own son useless in the eyes of the emperor.
It's really a big profit.
At this moment, Xiao Yan's biological mother, the seventh princess Hua, had porcelain scattered all over the floor in the room.
Aunt Bai drove everyone else out and whispered to comfort her.
"Princess, calm down. This is the Emperor's order after all. If he knew about you smashing things at home, he would probably think too much."
"She's a princess in name only, but in reality, she's nothing." Hua Shi sat on the couch and said coldly, "If she were his biological daughter, do you think he would be willing to slap her in the face like this?"
Was it a horse that was taken away?
That's her face.
"I've been trying to be strong all my life, but I never succeeded." Hua's eyes were filled with resentment. "Ever since I had that bastard, I haven't had a single day of peace!"
"Princess, please calm down. Princess, please calm down. Don't let anyone outside hear it." Aunt Bai was cautious.
"So what if they heard it? I'm in my own home, and I accidentally broke some porcelain, and I'm not allowed to do that? And I'm a princess, and I can't even scold a servant? If that's the case, then I might as well take this princess back."
"Princess, princess, my dear princess, please don't act on impulse."
"Today, I'm just going to act on impulse." Hua Shi grew increasingly angry as she spoke. "I won't let that evil bastard get away with it. Go, call the guy who went to investigate last time. I want to question him."
Although Xiao Yan had severed ties with the Marquis' Mansion, the Hua family never relaxed their surveillance of him.
She felt that Xiao Yan was living too well now, and he could even flatter her in front of the emperor.
Haha, do you really think that you can’t control him if he leaves the Marquis’ Mansion?
The happiness he thought he had was completely fragile.
After Lu Qiniang agreed to Xiao Yan, she always felt a little absent-minded.
Erya noticed it, "Mom, why are you daydreaming again?"
"Ah, no, you called me?"
"I asked you to help me put the bath beans there." Erya said.
The whole family is packing up the shop at the moment.
"Oh, here it comes."
"Mom, it's not soap, it's bath beans. What are you thinking about?" Erya joked, "You can't be thinking about my dad, right? He just left a while ago."
Xiao Yan took Xiong Da and the others to the canal.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Qiniang's face flushed.
"Hahaha, I got it right, Mom. You're blushing."
"Nonsense." Lu Qiniang put down the things in her hands, "I have a stomachache and need to go to the toilet."
She almost ran away.
Oh my God!
People really cannot be dishonest, otherwise they will be guilty as a thief.
Did she have it all written on her face?
Is it okay for her to tell Xiao Yan that she regrets it now?
I guess it won’t work.
But, but when I think about it, I feel so embarrassed.
Nearing lunchtime, Doctor Hu walked into the store leisurely with his hands behind his back.
"Where's Xiao Yan?" He looked around. "He seems to be doing something serious. What kind of business are you planning? If you need a partner, remember to call me."
Lu Qiniang spat at him, "I'm still looking forward to making some money! Don't get involved."
Old Hu snorted coldly, "Losing money means you're not good enough. If I didn't invest in the warehouse, would Xiao Yan still help me make money?"
"Tsk," Lu Qiniang mocked him mercilessly, "The reason why the warehouse can make money is because you said it was Du Juan's dowry. It can only make money after it has cut off all ties with you."
"Then I'll partner with you again and say I'm going to give Hu Rui money to marry a wife, okay?"
"That's fine, anyway, I won't get involved with you. No, Old Hu, did your family change their surnames? Was your last name Pei before?"
Doctor Hu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "Where's Xiao Yan? Come out and take care of your wife."
"He's busy at the canal. What are you looking for him for?"
Doctor Hu said, "Don't ask too much about men's affairs. I'll go find him and ask him to come to my house for lunch. Don't wait for him to eat."
"Why are we going to your house for dinner again? Is your uncle here again?"
"You're right." Doctor Hu said with a smug look on his face. "Mother Dujuan is back home today, and my son-in-law is here. I've ordered a table at the restaurant and asked Xiao Yan to come along. We old men can have a couple of drinks and don't need to listen to you women nagging."
"So Du Juan's mother isn't home. Look how mad you are." Lu Qin's mother scolded her with a smile, "If you get drunk, she'll come back and punish you."
At this moment they were bickering and laughing as usual, unaware that a conspiracy was on the way.
