Chapter 288 The first one

It passed through the mouth of the angry and hateful people of the Yan family, but in a blink of an eye, the story of the Yan family offering a huge amount of money to the princess spread all over the city.

Someone vowed to see several carriages going from the Yan family to the Qiwang Mansion with their own eyes, and it took two people to carry each box, and the rumor was even more hustle and bustle.

Xia Hanqiu didn't go to the government office this day.

Let Mingde calculate the number, and pull Yan Shengnan to sit aside and talk.

"Don't your uncles and cousins agree?"

"They have calculated that my family has been for decades. How can they agree?" Yan Shengnan sneered and felt extremely happy when he thought of those popular faces. "My father said that it was not their turn for them to interrupt my family, and he also said that he would open an ancestral hall. In addition to the tall people you sent before, they were unwilling to do anything."

Xia Hanqiu nodded slightly, "If they deliberately embarrass your parents, the prince will come forward."

The only thing Yan Shengnan is worried about now is that they embarrass his parents. Hearing the princess's words, he was immediately relieved.

"There is also a warehouse in the city's government office, but there is no Qiwang Mansion guarded there, that is, that is, the locks of the warehouse are specially made. Ordinary people can't open it. I can rest assured that I put it here, but I don't have the heart to swallow it."

"Princess, you are joking. I can't trust anyone and I can't trust you."

After the inventory was completed and put into the warehouse one by one, Xia Hanqiu took over the account book and turned it over, wrote down the amount in her heart, and handed the account book to Yan Shengnan, "Let's see if it's these."

Yan Shengnan was about to push it back when the account book had been stuffed into her hand. "You have to count what should be counted."

She naturally knew it in her heart. When she was at home, she had counted it several times. The princess wanted her to see that she didn't really let her write down the number, but Ding Mao was right, so as to avoid anything dirty in the future. After understanding this layer, Yan Shengnan opened the sheet and looked carefully.

Seeing that the last number was the same, she nodded happily, "That's it."

"That's good. I'll have someone copy this book. You keep it well." Xia Hanqiu didn't give more promises. He was empty-mouthed. It was annoying to say too much. He kept in mind that it was much better than that empty promise.

Yan Shengnan also understood, and he did not refuse this time.

At this time, Ruyue quickly came in with a big bowl in her hands, glanced to find someone, and almost ran to the master, "Princess, do you see if this is what you want?"

Since the disclosure of his identity that day, the name of the servants in the house has also been changed to the prince, the princess and the little prince, and the attitude has not changed much from before.

Xia Hanqiu looked at the thing and her eyes lit up, but as soon as she took it over, she felt something wrong, "Why is this color? Haven't you fried it?"

"In the case of returning to the princess, the chef tried the process you gave for a few days but failed, so she came according to her own method. The noodles were first cooked with water and then dried, so it became like this."

Xia Hanqiu took it in her hand and pondered for a while, "Go, soak it in boiling water."

"Yes."

Ruyue neatly poured boiling water into the big bowl. Seeing that the baked noodles gradually softened and became what they looked like before baking, she really couldn't figure out what the princess meant by doing this.

Estimating the time, Xia Hanqiu picked up a chopstick and looked at the intact noodles. As soon as they came out of the water, they broke one after another, and finally all fell clean.

"No." Xia Hanqiu put down his chopsticks and frowned. Let's not talk about the taste. If this noodles are really used in the army, I'm afraid they can only drink batter soup in the end.

"If you think about it again, you should ask the chef to try a few more times according to my process, or adjust it by yourself if you think there is something you can't do. In short, you have to follow that step. Frying is a necessary process, otherwise it can't be preserved for a long time and it won't be delicious."

"Yes."

When Ruyue left, Yan Shengnan asked thoughtfully, "Is the princess thinking about new things to supply the army?"

"That has to be done." Xia Hanqiu was helpless. Obviously, there was a process and step there. Why can't he do it?" Let's not talk about this. I have to go to the government office. If you let Xiu Mu go today, then go back and have a good rest for a day, or stay with your parents.

"I have to go to the government office, too." Yan Shengnan smiled bitterly, "The things have spread all over. How can my sisters not know? I'm in front of them. If I don't go today, they won't let me go, but I won't go with you. I have set a lot of things in Shuxiangzhai before. I have to get them and then go to the government "

Xia Hanqiu laughed, "I won't speak for you then."

Yan Shengnan's eyes were eye-catching, which made Xia Hanqiu laugh.

Separated at the door, Xia Hanqiu remembered that she hadn't gone to the ancestral house opposite in the past few days, so she asked people to wait outside first and went to Xia's house.

The old lady was very happy to see her. She didn't wait for her to worship and asked someone to stop her. "Where are you coming from?" Didn't you go to the government today?"

"Some things have been delayed, and I'll go in a moment."

The old lady knew what she didn't know. Thinking of the rumors outside, his eyebrows were full. He didn't want to make the old wife think nonsense, so he didn't ask much. After they talked for a while, he got up and said, "Qiu, take me to the study. I have something to ask you."

"Yes, grandmother, granddaughter is leaving."

"Go ahead and come to see me when you're free."

Xia Hanqiu gave another salute before he quickly followed out.

The old lady was very useful. When she learned that her young and miserable granddaughter had married a prince, she couldn't believe that the granddaughter-in-law, whose identity had always been a little unclear, was actually a prince?

But she can't allow her to believe this. After accepting this fact, she was worried that her granddaughter and the Xia family would have a difference. Fortunately, she was a nostalgic person. When she came over again, there was no change from before. How to call people, how to salute and how to salute, that is, to regard herself as God, she was relieved.

But she also learned that she was good at it. Later, she was not polite to her every time she came back.

Compared with these false rites, the future of the descendants is the most important. In the future, the Xia family will have a princess to help, and are you afraid that the Xia family will have no future? Even if all the financial resources of the Xia family should be put in.

On the other side, the two grandchildren sat opposite each other in the study.

After taking the tea handed over by the maid and putting it in front of his grandfather, Xia Hanqiu still frowned at the old man who had not dispersed, "Is uncle at home today?"

"He doesn't have to go to the government on time. These days, the weather is repeated, and there are more when it rains. He also goes out less than usual. Outside, go to someone to call the boss over."

After saying that, Xia Yusheng looked at this overturned granddaughter, the young daughter who was lost when she first met her, and now the fourth princess. He has seen what kind of face he has gained power once. On the contrary, he has lived for decades to see such a granddaughter.

This is too stable!

Zhang Zetian's father, without his biological mother to teach him, I really don't know how she developed such a nature!

"Grandfather wanted to ask what Hanqiu knew that I didn't expect the Yan family to spend so much money. I didn't want to stand it with my previous idea, but Shengnan's words reminded me that we were the people on the same boat. If I had always excluded the others on the ship, they would not believe me much in the end. There will be a disaster of collapse at the beginning of a wave, so I will accept whoever wants to help me with gold and silver in the future.

Xia Yusheng's face slowed down a little. "I also said that you remembered to use other people and forgot the Xia family. I underestimated you. You have never been the person in front of you. Don't forget it. Anyway, there is a Xia family behind you to support you. Although it can't help you a lot, the money will

"I know, grandpa." Originally, I wanted to say something, but I haven't been able to find a chance. At this time, Xia Hanqiu took the opportunity and said, "Grandpa, the Xia family is good at the back, but there is one thing I need to say in the front."

"Tell me."

"It's enough for the Xia family to have cousin De to take that road."

Xia Yusheng's face remains unchanged, "Do you mean that if something big is done, the Xia family can only have virtue to become an official?"

"Yes."

"In order to avoid taboo?"

"This is one of the reasons. In addition, the second uncle is an ignorant person and must be reused. Generally speaking, it is most suitable for him to take that road, but there is one thing that I don't know my grandfather knows. Nowadays, Yingying and I are in charge of the money, even if we need to do all this in the future If you hand it over, no one can erase the credit. If the Xia family retreats, it will definitely not be treated lightly with Bai Yu's nature. If you don't know how to see it, the Xia family will cause trouble. You can say that I think far away. I have begun to distribute these things before the eight characters are skimmed, but I think It's a glorious day. It's much better to raise the next generation than to be an unstable powerful minister.

Xia Yusheng nodded slowly and said slowly, "The Xia family can't stand too high."

"Yes." Seeing that his grandfather was not dissatisfied, Xia Hanqiu took advantage of the situation to pursue, "In the past few years, I have treated Bai Yu with sincerity, he treated me with sincerity, and there is an exchange for this relationship. As long as I take good care of this relationship in the future, as long as the Xia family keeps its duty, the Xia family will definitely be different It's more transparent."

"Father, Qiuer, what can I do for you?" The door was not closed, and Xia Cong strode in. It was not surprising that his nephew was there. Obviously, he had known it for a long time.

"It's Qiu girl looking for you."

Xia Hanqiu was about to get up to see the salute. Xia Cong shook his hand, "Sitting and talking, don't come to those empty ones, Qiu'er, did you donate money to explain to me for the Yan family? If it's for this, you don't have to say anything. Since you do this, you must have your consideration. Anyway, the Xia family is behind you. Just tell me when you need it.

Xia Cong's trust made Xia Hanqiu smile softly. "I can't explain it. It's just that I made some changes to my previous plan, and I need to tell you." RS
