"Xuan Ye, I can do it myself!"
When Harigana was picked up, he knew that Kangxi was preventing her from saying that she wanted to find the Empress Dowager.
To be honest, she didn't actually want to be called Empress Dowager.
The children are at Ning Shou Palace, and they're not going out to play; they'll be back in a little while. Why bother with all that trouble?
"You're tired from playing on the swings, it's better if I hold you!"
Harigana stopped struggling and, following Kangxi's lead, let him hold her until they got off the carriage.
Prince Yu did a very good job. Although he was with them at the Summer Palace, the shops were kept very clean.
The shop was originally given to Harigana by Emperor Kangxi, but Prince Yu bought the adjacent shop and combined the two shops together.
As Harigana had suggested, several screens were set up inside for privacy, and the servant's clothes looked very festive and clean.
"Second brother, it's really great!"
Harigana turned his head, genuinely praising him.
Emperor Kangxi had a slight appetite, but he didn't show it.
"Sister-in-law, your idea is really good. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the brain to come up with it."
Prince Yu scratched the back of his head, while his wife covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Sister-in-law, stop praising your second brother, or you won't be able to sleep tonight."
Harigana looked over in confusion, wondering what he meant now?
Prince Yu's face flushed instantly, and he quietly tugged at his wife's sleeve, stopping her from continuing.
“Sister-in-law, I’ll tell you all about it properly sometime.”
Prince Yu's letter has been put aside for now, as long as it's not said to his face.
Otherwise, he would really be a disgrace.
In fact, Kangxi had guessed some of it.
He used to be very suspicious and prone to misjudgment, so his second brother must have had a rather difficult time.
So seeing such a lucrative opportunity fall into his lap, he must have been very excited to see the money flowing in on the opening day.
"Okay, sister-in-law, I'll wait for you!"
Harigana agreed readily and did not investigate further.
If I say it in the future, I'll say it; if I don't, it's fine.
It's just a matter of having one less piece of gossip in your life, nothing serious.
"Sister-in-law, have a taste and see if there's anything that needs improvement."
Prince Yu had received Emperor Kangxi's message well in advance and had made all the necessary arrangements.
After they sat down in a private room on the second floor, the innkeeper personally brought up two small cakes, which Li Dequan took and carried into the room.
"Okay! I'll give it a try!"
After Li Dequan tried gambling, he picked up a small spoon and looked at the carvings on it. He had to admit that the craftsmanship was excellent.
"Xuan Ye, don't waste food, finish it quickly!"
Kangxi nodded, picked up a spoon, and began to eat.
Prince Yu's eyes were filled with tears, though they didn't fall, but Kangxi still noticed.
With her head down, her eyes also reddened, probably because she was thinking about things from her childhood.
When Kangxi was sent to the estate, only Prince Yu secretly sent someone to deliver a lot of candied fruit to him, saying that taking medicine would make his mouth bitter, but eating the candied fruit he gave him would make it less bitter.
At the time, he thought it was just an accident, but now it seems that he must have known that he liked sweets, which is why he sent so many candied fruits over.
"Second brother, it's delicious, really good."
I have no objections, except for one thing: no matter how big the business gets in the future, you absolutely cannot cut corners.
Harigana sensed Kangxi's melancholy. Although he didn't know why, one of them had to say something.
The princess consort belatedly realized that the atmosphere was different and sat to the side, not daring to speak.
"Okay, sister-in-law, don't worry, your second brother will remember."
After Prince Yu finished speaking, he took out a blue-covered booklet from his pocket and gave it to her: "This is the account book!"
Harigana waved his hand: "Second brother, you're being too polite!"
I didn't do anything. If it weren't for my second brother and sister-in-law, it would have just been an idea.
When it comes to distributing profits later, I'll have Xiao Li come out and talk to the manager. As for the rest, my second brother and sister-in-law can make the decisions.
I'm in the palace, so I can't help with anything.
"I'll need your continued attention in the future, so I won't be looking at the account books."
Prince Yu and his wife were clearly not expecting Harigana to say such a thing. After realizing what was happening, they tried to persuade him, but Kangxi returned the account book to them, saying, "Second brother, take it back. Listen to Harigana."
Although he didn't know why she wasn't looking at the account book, his darling must have her reasons.
If she wants to do something, she won't hesitate; she'll just take it directly. Since she said she wouldn't watch it, she definitely won't watch it today.
"Hey! This!"
