Chapter 461 Sense of Belonging   What pavilion? Tang Zheng, Tang Xiao and the people from the Mo family were confused and wanted to ask, but seeing that Tang Xi hadn't finished speaking, they could only hold it in.   Tang Xi looked at everyone and said, "I will discuss the matter of Yue Yin with Granny Ge. I will tell you in detail when I have made a decision."   "Yes!"   Tang Xi nodded, turned around and said to Tang Zheng and his group, "Dad, Grandpa and Grandma...you follow them to see the yard first."   "Okay!" Everyone nodded blankly.   "Sister, will I live alone?" Tang Xiao said strugglingly, "Can I live with my cousins?"   Tang Xi nodded, "Of course you can, but when your cousins go back, you still have to live alone."   "Then you can't not go back?" Tang Xiao frowned, "Can you bring my uncle and my aunt to live with us?"   Tang Xi touched his little head and smiled, "Well, you have to ask my cousin and uncle. If they agree, sister will naturally send someone to pick them up."   "That won't do!" Mo Ziteng said, "We have to go back after the New Year."   As the saying goes, no nest is better than your own doghouse. No matter how good this place is, they have no sense of belonging.   "Why?" Tang Xiao pursed her lips and said, "Didn't my cousin say he liked Qingfeng College? He can stay with me!"   "Liking is one thing, wanting to study there is another!" Mo Ziteng smiled and said, "My cousin's home is in Lianhua Town. No matter how bad it is, it is still our hometown. Do you understand?"   "Yeah!" Tang Xiao nodded, "Ah Xiao understands, just like Ah Xiao misses Gaopo Village."   Although life in Gaopo Village is not easy, it is still my hometown after all.   "Yes!" Mo Ziteng smiled and nodded, "Nowhere is better than my hometown."   "Okay!" Xia said with a smile, "Everyone go and see your own residence."   Mo Linglong said, "I never thought that one day I would have my own courtyard to live in."   The Mo family used to run a shop, so naturally there were also wealthy families who went there to buy things.   She had only heard of such a courtyard with a name from the girls of those wealthy families.   Tang Xi smiled and said, "If you like it, this place can be kept for you forever."   "No, no!" Mo Linglong shook her head and blushed, "I will get married in the future. I can't come to you after I get married."   "Why not?" Tang Xi smiled slightly, "You can bring your cousin's husband with you."   The blush on Mo Linglong's face deepened a little, "It's still early!"   Tang Xi smiled lightly and waved to the maids and servants, "Go."   Chun'er said, "Grandmaster, Madam, please come this way!"   "Hey!" Xia nodded.   Chun'er and Xia'er hurriedly helped her out.   Tang Yi and Tang Er also helped Mr. Mo out.   Before leaving, Mr. Mo looked at Tang Xi with satisfaction. Although he didn't say anything, Tang Xi saw praise in his eyes.   "Cousin, we're going over too." Mo Ziteng smiled.   Tang Xi nodded, "Okay, let's have dinner in the front yard."   Mo Ziteng nodded, and took Mo Zihao and Mo Zihan by the hand, following the maids and servants.   Tang Zheng took Tang Xiao by the hand, looked at her and said, "Then Dad and Xiao will go first."   Tang Xi nodded, and after they left, she said to the others, "Grandma Qi and Grandma Ge will stay, and the others can go first."   　I have to save the manuscript recently, so the update is a bit less, there will be a burst of updates on the 21st.   　　   　   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 462: The issue of case money   After everyone responded, they all retreated.   The people of the He family still stayed where they were. He Qing looked at Tang Xi, his expression hesitant to speak.   Seeing him like this, Tang Xi smiled and said, "Uncle He, just tell me what you want to say."   "This..." He Qing hesitated and said, "It's okay   for the child's mother. After all, her eye disease has not been cured yet. But the two children are not young anymore. We can't just do nothing. Girl, can you arrange something for them to do?" Not only did he reunite their family, but he also treated his wife for free. He couldn't be the only one busy.   "Oh, I almost forgot!" Tang Xi smiled, "He Shu, can you read?"   He Shu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I can!"   He Qing scratched his head and smiled innocently, "When I was a child, I was a companion to him and I know some words, so both children can read."   "I see!" Tang Xi nodded, "Then He Shu, you will follow the young master in the future."   "Yes!" He Shu agreed.   "Miss, what about me?" He Yeye looked at her expectantly and asked in a baby voice.   "You?" Tang Xi chuckled, "You take care of your mother first. When her eyes are healed, I will arrange other things for you to do, okay?"   "Oh!" He Yeye nodded and smiled sweetly, "Miss, don't worry, I will work for you when my mother is well."   Jiang held her and whispered, "Yeye, in the future, you have to call yourself a slave to the young lady, understand?"   He Yeye nodded obediently after hearing this, "I understand, mother."   After hearing this, Tang Xi just smiled faintly.   After the people from the He family left, Tang Xi looked at the two grandmothers and said, "Please take a seat."   The two shook their heads. Granny Ge smiled and said, "No, young lady, you speak, we'll just stand and listen!"   Tang Xi did not force them, but asked in a calm voice, "How is the monthly salary for these maids, servants, old women, doormen and the like calculated?"   Upon hearing this, Granny Qi looked at Granny Ge. Granny Ge said, "These maids, old women, and servants are divided into three grades. The first grade is those who serve the master personally, and they usually get three taels of silver a month. The second grade also serves in the girl's room, but they are not too close to the lady, so they get two taels of silver. The third grade is serving tea and water, and these basic Originally, it was about 500 wen to 1 tael of silver. The maids in the kitchen and the housekeepers usually got 3 taels, and the rest got 1 to 2 taels. The cleaners usually got a few hundred wen. As for the guards, they probably got 1 or 2 taels. As for the gardener... I'm not sure about this old slave."   Tang Xi nodded, "Okay, then let's arrange it as you said. Uh... start with 1 tael. Each of you will get 4 taels per month. The guards will get 2 taels per month. The maids will get 1 tael per month. The cooks will get 3 taels per month. The handymen will get 1 tael per month. As for the maids and servants, they will get 2 taels per month. We can ask the gardener later. How do you think this arrangement works?"   "Okay." Granny Ge nodded, "Then I'll make a note of it."   Tang Xi nodded, "Then let's do this first. Have you all had lunch?"   Granny Qi nodded, "Yes, the kitchen cooked a big pot of noodles today, and we ate it all."   "That's good!" Tang Xi thought about it, took out his purse, and took out two silver notes, one for 100 taels and one for 50,000 taels. He gave the smaller amount to Granny Qi and the larger amount to Granny Ge. "   This is the money the kitchen will spend on New Year's shopping this year. Is this enough?" Tang Xi asked Granny Qi.   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 463 No Blessing   "Enough, enough!" Granny Qi said with a smile, "Generally, we don't need so much."   After all, although the Tang Mansion is large, there are not many masters.   "Oh, right!" She looked at Granny Ge and said, "How should the master's regular money be given?"   Now, the Tang Mansion is also a wealthy family, so it must be more standardized.   Granny Ge has not recovered from the face value of the silver note.   When she was in charge before, there were many treasures in the warehouse, but not much cash, at most a few thousand taels.   This new master spent 50,000 taels at once, which really shocked her.   "Granny Ge, is the money not enough?" Seeing that she didn't answer, Tang Xi asked with a smile.   "No, no, it's enough!" She smiled, "What did the young lady say just now?"   Granny Qi smiled and reminded, "The young lady asked you, how should the masters' allowance be divided?"   "So that's it," Granny Ge smiled, "Master, this also needs to be divided into different levels. The legitimate children get ten taels per month, the illegitimate children get five taels per month, and as for cousins, they may not get more than three taels per month."   "We don't have illegitimate children in the Tang family." Tang Xi pondered and said, "What about the masters and the like?"   "This..." Granny Ge was a little embarrassed, "It depends on how you, the young lady   , distribute it." Generally, the master is the master, and this is the first time she has met a young lady in charge. If you ask her, she doesn't know much.   Tang Xi nodded, "Okay, then don't worry about these."   She looked at Granny Qi and said, "From now on, let Granny Ge review the purchase list. As for the expenditure account, Granny Ge will make a ledger and I will check it every month."   The two nodded, "This old slave has received it!"   "You are all in your early forties, right?" Tang Xi asked.   The two nodded, and Granny Qi said, "I am 42 years old."   Granny Ge said, "I am 45 years old."   Tang Xi nodded, "From now on, tell everyone not to call you Granny, just call you Mammy."   "Yes!"   "You all have families, right?" Tang Xi asked.   Granny Qi shook her head, "There was a severe drought in my family. When I escaped, everyone died, leaving me alone."   Granny Ge said, "I do have a daughter, but she has married far away. I haven't contacted her since I left the capital."   Tang Xi nodded, "Okay, then you can go down."   "Yes!"   After the two left, Tang Xi returned to the Silk Chamber.   Hua'er and Guo'er had already cleaned the room. When she came in, the room had been cleaned.   Originally, the Zhuo Mansion had people come to clean this house regularly, so there was not much dust.   She had just seen the furniture in the lobby, all made of red sandalwood. She thought it was the same, but she didn't expect that the furniture in this room was made of huanghuali wood. From this, it can be seen how much the Zhuo Mansion valued the Sang family.   It's a pity that the Sang family didn't have this blessing after all.   Speaking of the Sang family, Tang Xi thought of Zhuo Xuan again. She didn't know how his legs had recovered.   Two days ago, the batch of Wanling Flower Cream ordered by the customer was ready. She originally wanted to wait for Zhuo Yue to pick it up, but after waiting for two days, no one came, so she had to ask someone to deliver it to her.   "Girl, do you want to take a nap?" Guoer came in and asked.   The two of them were the youngest among the ten people, both of them were only fourteen years old.   Even so, based on their age, they were bigger than her body.   "Yeah." She looked at the two of them and said, "It's about to snow outside, you should go back to the house and rest. Don't come into my house if you don't have anything to do."   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 464: There is no order without rules   "Ah?"   The two were stunned at the same time, "Then in the morning and evening, don't the servants have to help you bathe and change clothes?"   "No." Tang Xi smiled faintly and said, "Usually, you just need to do something else."   "Yes!" Although the two were puzzled, they still agreed.   "Yeah."   After she closed the door, Hua'er and Guo'er looked at each other in confusion.   Hua'er said, "I thought it was strange at first. The young lady is a member of the master's family, but there are only two of us maids. I thought it would be very hard, but I didn't expect that we don't have to do anything?"   "No matter what, let's do what the young lady says." Guo'er said, "We just need to clean the surroundings at ordinary times, and the rest will be left for the young lady's instructions."   "That's right." After   the two said that, they hurriedly left together.   Tang Xi closed the door and went directly into the space. Taking advantage of her spare time, she continued to make the Wanling Flower Cream.   In the evening, Guo'er came to knock on the door.   Tang Xi heard the noise and came to open the door. When Guo'er saw her, she explained, "It was Steward Ge who came. He said that the master wanted the young lady to have dinner in the front yard."   "Got it."   Tang Xi went out and closed the door. Just as she was about to leave, Guo'er continued, "Do you want to prepare water for the young lady to wash?"   "Prepare it." Tang Xi said without looking back.   Guo'er answered yes and stood under the eaves to watch her leave.   "Don't we need to light the lamp for the young lady?" Hua'er came over and asked.   Guo'er said, "Standard Ge came with a lamp. We can go pick up the young lady later."   "Okay!"   Compared with Chun'er and Xia'er, this was the first time for Hua'er and Guo'er to serve someone.   They didn't know how to serve, and no one taught them how to serve the master well.   So, they could only wait for the master's orders.   After all, the Tang Mansion was not a wealthy family with a foundation. A half-baked "upstart" like Tang Xi didn't know how other servants served their masters. She only knew to take care of others and do whatever she wanted.   On the way to the front yard, Granny Ge, no, now Steward Ge, couldn't help but say, "This is the first time that the young lady has been a housekeeper. I'm afraid she doesn't understand the rules of the servants. If some servants are left alone for too long, they might step on the head of the master."   Just like this time, the maids who are a little more sensible usually carry lanterns and follow Tang Xi to the front yard to serve.   Those two are so good that they have to ask the master to boil water for a bath, which is really outrageous.   Tang Xi was stunned and nodded immediately.   What Steward Ge said makes sense. There is no order without rules, but... "How to do it?"   Steward Ge said, "If the young lady trusts me, I can recommend a nanny to you. She used to be a nanny in the palace and taught etiquette lessons to many girls from noble families."   "Will such a person come to a person like us who started out halfway to be an etiquette nanny?" Tang Xi doubted.   Such people can't stand her, a "nouveau riche without rules".   Steward Ge smiled, "She is not as good as she used to be, and her grandson is still sick. As long as you pay her enough, who cares if she can't come?"   "Are you familiar with her?" Tang Xi asked.   Steward Ge said, "When I was in the capital, I dealt with her several times. That's when I knew she was from Hanshui City. Later, when I was sold to Hanshui City, I heard Granny Gao mention her to the nobles several times. However, it is said that the nobles disliked her because she was too old and were unwilling to invite her."   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 465 Simplicity   "She is old?" Tang Xi gathered her cloak and asked in confusion, "How old?"   Steward Ge pondered and said, "At most, she should be seventy years old. Those nobles may be afraid that she is old and no longer has the momentum of the past, and can't suppress those girls."   "Then do you think she can suppress these little girls in our house?" Tang Xi raised his eyebrows and asked.   "Of course!" Steward Ge smiled and said, "The young lady may not know that some things are engraved in the bones. The nanny has been in the palace for more than ten or twenty years. Even though she is old, she can still suppress those people."   "Well, that's fine!" Tang Xi nodded and said, "Leave it to you."   Steward Ge nodded, "Yes!"   She was silent for a moment, and continued to suggest, "Young lady, why don't you bring your cousin to listen to this etiquette class?"   "Do you think I have no rules?" Tang Xi narrowed her eyes.   "That's not the case!" Steward Ge shook his head, "I just think that the maid is not simple, you may be able to learn something from her, if you don't agree, then forget it!"   After all, she is a maid in the palace, she must know a lot.   Tang Xi pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I can consider this."   Steward Ge smiled, "Miss, trust me, I will definitely not harm you."   When she arrived at the front yard, everyone else had already taken their seats, but the table was still empty.   "Xixi is here!" Xia pulled her over with a kind smile, "Hurry up and sit down."   Tang Xi frowned slightly after sitting down, "Why hasn't the food been served yet?"   "I stopped you from serving." Xia smiled and said, "The Tang Mansion is now a wealthy family, so there must be rules."   "Grandpa, grandma and dad are all elders, how can they let you wait just because of a junior like me?" Tang Xi frowned slightly, "In the future, if I come late, you can eat first, but don't worry about me. If I don't come, won't you be hungry for a day?"   After she said that, she looked up and said to Aunt Qi, "Aunt Qi, let someone serve the food."   Xia said, "This is called serving the meal."   Tang Xi chuckled and quickly changed her words, "Okay, serve the meal."   "Yes!"   Aunt Qi agreed and quickly gave the order.   After a while, the servants and maids brought up the dinner one after another.   There were duck with bamboo shoots, eggplant with minced meat, braised fish, spicy stir-fried cabbage, shrimp and egg custard, garlic shrimp, fish fillet with milk sauce, Tang Xiao's favorite stewed pork elbow, and winter melon and pork ribs soup.   Aunt Qi smiled and said, "We can't make it in time today, so we can only ask the chef to cook so many dishes."   "Enough!" Tang Zheng said, "There are not many people, and cooking too much will be a waste."   Aunt Qi nodded, "The master is right!"   "Why don't I see Guo'er and Hua'er?" Aunt Qi asked Butler Ge in a low voice.   Steward Ge also replied in a low voice: "They are two unruly people. They even have to ask the master for advice before boiling water. They don't even carry a lantern when the master comes. It's really outrageous."   "It's a good thing that the young lady has a good temper. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would suffer."   "Isn't it?" Steward Ge sighed lightly, "The young lady asked me to invite Aunt Mi to let the maids learn the rules from her."   "That's right." Aunt Qi nodded, "The young lady has a good heart, and she can't let these little hooves bully her."   They are not young anymore, and their life in the pawnshop is not very satisfactory. Therefore, they have to worry a little more to come to such a family and be reused.   The Tang Mansion is not like other mansions. The people here are simple. There is no open or secret struggle between wives and concubines, and there is no dispute between legitimate and illegitimate children. Serving such a family is much less troublesome than serving those big and powerful families.   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 466 Are you still conscious?   Tang Xi scooped a spoonful of shrimp and egg custard, took a bite and nodded, "This chef's cooking skills are good!"   These dishes are just the taste she likes.   Seeing that other people are eating very happily, she knew that everyone is very satisfied with this chef.   Aunt Qi smiled and said, "This shrimp and egg custard is cooked by Wu Pozi, and the others are cooked by Li Pozi and Zhang Pozi respectively."   "Oh?" Tang Xi raised an eyebrow, "Aren't they cooked by the same person?"   Aunt Qi smiled and nodded, "No."   "Well, it seems that Gao Pozi didn't lie to me." She smiled and said, "These women are really good at cooking."   "This elbow is also delicious!" Tang Xiao said, "It tastes exactly the same as what I ate in Xie Mansion."   "Xie Mansion?"   When he said this, the maids and women present were stunned, even Steward Ge and Aunt Qi were stunned.   Although they saw Xie Cheng taking Tang Xi to pick people, they didn't know the relationship between Tang Xi and Xie Cheng.   Now, even the young master has been to the Xie Mansion for dinner. What is the relationship between the Tang Mansion and the City Lord's Mansion?   "Yes!" Tang Xiao said, "The food cooked by the chef of the Xie Mansion is delicious. When we lived there before, we ate the same food every day."   "Did the young master live in the Xie Mansion?" Tang Jiu asked.   "Yes." Tang Xiao nodded, "For a long time."   Tang Xi looked up at everyone and smiled lightly without saying anything.   After dinner, Tang Xi found housekeeper Ge again.   "Housekeeper Ge, go buy some more people from Mrs. Gao tomorrow." Tang Xi said, "Buy a few more maids, maids, and errand boys. I can't let others take care of the girls and young men, and then I have to run to the kitchen myself."   She thought fifty people were enough before, but now it seems that it is far from enough.   "Okay!" Butler Ge nodded, "Then I will go find Mrs. Gao tomorrow morning."   Tang Xi said, "I don't like to take care of these things. From now on, the Tang Mansion will be handed over to Butler Ge."   "Don't worry, young lady. I will do my best to manage the Tang Mansion for you!"   Tang Xi nodded slightly, "There's nothing else to do. You should go back and have a rest early."   "How about I take you back first?" Butler Ge said, "It's pitch black outside, and there's no one to hold the lamp."   As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xi smiled suddenly, "Got it."   "What?"   Butler Ge was puzzled, but heard the voice of the little girl behind him, "Young lady, the servants are here to pick you up!"   Butler Ge turned around and saw Hua'er holding the lamp and Guo'er holding an umbrella, waiting outside the lobby door.   Her face looked better, "Since someone has picked you up, I will leave first."   Tang Xi nodded slightly, "Go."   "Butler Ge!"   Hua'er and Guo'er saw her coming and bowed slightly.   "Yeah."   Steward Ge nodded slightly, then walked past them and went out.   Tang Xi stood up, walked between them, and said in a low voice: "Let's go."   The two heard it and hurriedly responded in unison.   Hua'er walked in front with a lantern to lead the way, while Guo'er held an umbrella to carefully protect Tang Xi.   The cold wind whistled with snowflakes, and the three of them were covered with snowflakes, but Tang Xi was not covered with much because of the umbrella.   "Do you still feel your hands?"   Tang Xi looked at the red hands holding the umbrella and asked in a low voice.   Guo'er smiled and nodded, "Yes."   "It's so cold, don't you know to wrap yourself up tightly?"   Guo'er changed her hands, placed them on her lips and blew a few times, then smiled and said, "I came out in time, I'm too lazy to go back and tidy it up."   (End of this chapter)

 Chapter 467 What's the relationship   "Let me do it." Tang Xi reached out and took the umbrella, "Hua'er, you come too."   "No need, girl, I have to hold the lamp." Hua'er said, and from time to time she brushed off the snowflakes that fell on the lantern.   "Girl, you don't have to support me, just support yourself. If you get sick, I will be guilty!"   Guo'er saw her move the umbrella towards her and hurriedly reminded her.   Tang Xi seemed to remember something, and the corners of her lips curled slightly.   She remembered that when she was in junior high school in her previous life, she couldn't catch the school bus because she got up late, and everyone in her family went to work and school. She had no choice but to take a motorcycle.   Who knew that because it was too cold, her hands were frozen. After getting off the car, she reached into her pocket and couldn't feel the money. She thought that the money was lost on the way, so she cried directly at the school gate.   At that time, the aunt riding the motorcycle was also very helpless. She was about to ride away on her bike, but when she reached into her pocket, she suddenly felt the money again.   At that time, there were still several students on the roadside. It was so embarrassing.   After paying the money, she hurried into the school.   "What are you laughing at, young lady?" Guo'er was curious.   Tang Xi shook her head, "Nothing, I just heard a story."   "What story?"   "Well, I heard that someone didn't wear ear protection on a snowy day, and finally his ears were frozen off without noticing."   She said, and glanced at Guo'er's hand faintly.   Guo'er, who was rubbing her hands, paused slightly, and asked in a stiff voice: "Young lady, are you joking?"   "You don't believe it?" Tang Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, "This is real."   Guo'er's eyes reddened, "Then will my hand fall off too?"   Tang Xi nodded, "Maybe."   Guo'er was so scared that she hid her hand in her neck, and the cold made her shiver a few times.   Tang Xi chuckled and her steps quickened a little.   The next day, Steward Ge brought back another group of people.   After seeing it, Tang Xi asked Steward Ge to arrange those people to their respective posts.   After lunch, Steward Ge came to Tang Xi again.   Now, Tang Xi is the only one who has the most free time in the family.   Because it is the New Year, Tang Xiao does not have to go to the academy. These days, he has been discussing academic issues with Mo Ziteng and others.   Mo Linglong is afraid of the cold, so she quickly gets back into bed to avoid the cold after dinner.   As for Xia and Old Man Mo, Tang Xi asked them to go out less because of their inconvenience in walking.   He even told Aunt Qi that in the future, meals will be sent directly there, and everyone will eat there during the day, and dinner will be eaten in their respective courtyards.   There is no way, the closer it is to the New Year, the colder the weather in Hanshui City will be.   Even Tang Xi wants to hide in the space to avoid the cold.   Tang Xi asked Guo'er to prepare tea and snacks, and brought a charcoal basin, and then invited Butler Ge to come in and sit down.   After taking a sip of hot tea, Steward Ge said, "Miss, I went to the Mi family today to ask, and Aunt Mi said that she would not come until the New Year."   Tang Xi nodded, "That's fine, it's the New Year, you can have someone send some meat and snacks to the Mi family later."   Steward Ge smiled when he heard it, "Don't worry, I've already sent it."   "Yes." Tang Xi nodded with satisfaction.   Seeing that Steward Ge had not left after he finished speaking, she looked up in confusion, "Does Steward Ge have anything else to say?"   "This..." Steward Ge hesitated for a long time before asking, "I wonder what the relationship between our mansion and the Xie mansion is?"   She was really curious.   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 468 Sending New Year Gifts   Tang Xi raised an eyebrow, "Why do you ask suddenly?"   "That day, I saw the city lord personally take you to pick people, and then you came several times, and..."   Steward Ge said: "Just now, Xie's house also sent a lot of things over, saying that the old lady and the old master asked them to send, so I am curious."   "Oh?" Tang Xi was surprised, "Who sent them?"   Steward Ge said: "I heard that the followers all like her Madam."   "Madam Jiang?" Tang Xi stood up, "Where is she?"   "She left," Steward Ge said: "I asked her to stay for tea, but she said that the New Year is coming soon, and the house is busy, so she can't get away, so she left after leaving the things."   "Really?"   Tang Xi sat back again and said in a calm voice: "What were sent?"   "I have made a list, it's all here." Steward Ge said, took out the list and handed it to Tang Xi.   After reading it, Tang Xi smiled slightly.   There were mostly food inside, including tea, dried fruit snacks, bird's nests and the like, some cheap and some not.   She thought for a moment, looked at Butler Ge and said, "Please sit for a while, I'll go in and get something."   Butler Ge nodded.   Tang Xi returned to the bedroom and took out a ginseng and a purple ganoderma from the space.   These were all prepared with spiritual springs, and the efficacy was no less than that of a thousand-year-old one.   She packed them in a box, took them out, and handed them to Butler Ge, "This, you send to the Xie Mansion."   The Xie Mansion had no shortage of other things, and she was too lazy to send them back.   "What is this?" Butler Ge was puzzled.   Tang Xi smiled slightly, "You can open it and take a look."   Butler Ge opened it, and when he saw the things inside, he was stunned.   She had been a housekeeper in a wealthy family, so good things were naturally not rare, and she had seen ginseng and ganoderma that were a hundred years old.   At first glance, the color and completeness of these two medicinal materials were not what they should be in ordinary years.   She was horrified, this young master was really generous.   These two herbs are more than what the Xie Mansion sent, no, they are even more than that.   "Just say that I gave them to the old lady and the old master." Tang Xi took a few more boxes of beauty cream, "This is for the Crown Prince's Consort."   Lu Yue was dead, and the few people in Anyang Palace were not powerful at all. They were killed by the shadow guards as soon as they left the house, and the left protector did not dare to get involved because of Hua Muyin.   In the end, only the people in Luo Palace were left, and they were all dealt with by her, Xie Cheng, and Chen Luo.   Therefore, a few days ago, Lu Huai and Xie Ling had already returned to Xie Mansion safely with their son Lu Fan.   "The Crown Prince's Consort?" Butler Ge was surprised, "Isn't she spending the New Year in the capital?"   Tang Xi smiled lightly and said, "Maybe the old lady and the old master are old, and only City Lord Xie is at home. He has a cold temper and doesn't talk much. The Crown Prince's Consort must be afraid that the two old people will be lonely, so she and the Crown Prince came all the way here." Butler   Ge found that when talking about City Lord Xie, his girl's eyes were full of soft light.   From this, it seems that the relationship between the two mansions should be related to the relationship between the young lady and the city lord.   "I see!" Steward Ge nodded, "In that case, I will go down to prepare first."   "Wait." Tang Xi looked at her and said, "The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the lanterns and couplets at home should be hung and posted in advance."   Steward Ge said, "Don't worry, young lady, they are already being posted."   She nodded slightly, "That's fine, you can go down."   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 469: Prince Fan Revolts (1)   At the same time, in the Prince Anyang's mansion.   "You mean, after salvaging for so long, we still haven't found anything?"   In the study, Prince Anyang looked at Zuo An and asked with suppressed anger.   "Yes!" Zuo An frowned and said, "I suspect that Xie Cheng may have taken advantage of the chaos to transfer these things."   "So many things, all in Xie Cheng's hands?" Prince Anyang slumped in his chair, the air in his chest was neither venting nor swallowing, and he almost choked to death.   "Your Highness, what should we do next?" Zuo An was also very anxious.   Those things, at least tens of millions of taels, even the entire Prince Anyang's mansion combined, didn't have that much.   "What should we do? You ask me what to do?" Prince Anyang was so angry that he kicked the desk over. "What can I do?"   He took a few deep breaths and gritted his teeth and said, "Don't salvage it. We can't let Xie Cheng find out that this matter is related to me." With   this fortune gone, what else can he do except swallow his anger?   Could he go and ask Xie Cheng to get it back? Unless he doesn't want to live anymore.   Adultery and treason are heinous crimes that will punish the entire clan. His goal is to get the Prince of Anyang's Mansion back to the capital, not to destroy it.   The Prince of Luo's Mansion and the Crown Prince of Xinyi promised him that when the Prince of Luo's Mansion came to power, the   Prince of Anyang's Mansion would return to the capital. If it was because of his failure to make the plan, there would be   no need for Emperor Yan to intervene. He might have been dealt with by the people of the Crown Prince of Xinyi and Prince Luo first. "Such a large fortune just got away with Xie Cheng like this?" Zuo An was unwilling.   "What else can we do?" The King of Anyang sneered, "Are you going to get it back? Or let the Crown Prince of Xinyi go and get it back in person?"   If the Xinyi Kingdom now fights with the Canglan Kingdom, it will only lose.   The army is not as good as the others, and there is a shortage of food and grass. This money was originally prepared for future wars, but now it is gone.   Zuo An remained silent.   "Have everyone withdrawn, and then send a letter to Deputy General Yao, asking him to inform the Crown Prince that these things have been snatched away by Xie Cheng."   After saying this, Prince Anyang waved his hand feebly.   He seemed to have aged a lot. He   was only in his forties, but he looked like a man in his fifties.   Zuo An nodded and retreated silently.   At the door, Prince Fan walked in. He looked at Prince Anyang for a long time before saying, "Father, I heard everything."   "What did you hear?" Prince Anyang asked coldly.   "Father, are you really cooperating with Xinyi Country and Prince Luo?" Prince Fan frowned and said, "Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?"   "No way." Prince Anyang smiled bitterly, "For the glory of Anyang Palace, father can only take a gamble."   "Father!" Prince Fan said with red eyes, "Is the glory of Anyang Palace so important? In case of failure, have you thought about the consequences? By then, let alone glory, our entire Anyang Palace will be destroyed!"   "So what?" Prince Anyang looked like he was ready to go, and said with a ferocious expression, "It's better to be destroyed than to live a miserable life!"   He used to be a person who lived at a high point, and he couldn't stand being looked at with contempt by those lowly people.   Who are those people? Why do they look at him and Anyang Palace with such eyes?   "If you insist on doing this, I have nothing to say." Prince Fan sniffed and said, "After the New Year, I will take my sister away from Prince Anyang's Palace."   "What did you say?" Prince Anyang narrowed his eyes, "Where are you taking your sister?"   (End of this chapter)

  Chapter 470: Prince Fan's Resistance (2)   "Where else can we go?" Prince Fan smiled bitterly, "The world is so big, there will always be a place for us brothers and sisters to survive."   "Do you think your father will fail?" Prince Anyang asked coldly.   "Not a feeling." Prince Fan looked at him and said, "It is certain."   "Haha, hahaha, hahaha——"   Prince Anyang laughed wildly. At the end, he looked at Prince Fan coldly and said, "You can go. Anyway, I don't lack sons. If you leave, let Zhengyao be the prince. But you can't take your sister with you."   He promised Prince Luo that he would marry Hanrong to Luo Jian. Luo Jian had met Hanrong and was very satisfied with her.   After the New Year, he would send Hanrong and her dowry to the palace in the capital, and then let her marry from the palace.   Prince Fan was silent for a moment, and said, "Han Rong is my son's only sister. If she is willing to go with me, my father can't stop her."   "Do you think she will go with you?" Prince Anyang said in a calm voice, "Fan'er, you are too naive. Your sister has never suffered since she was a child. She will not go with you."   No one knows his daughter's temperament better than him. She is a selfish person from the bottom of her heart.   "If she doesn't want to go..." Prince Fan paused and said in a calm voice, "Then I respect her choice." Prince   Anyang sneered, "If you want to go, your father will not stop you, and your father will never lack money. After the New Year, you can go to the housekeeper to get it. However, in the future, if the Prince Anyang's Mansion returns to the capital, your father hopes to never see you again."   "Don't worry, your father, I will no longer be a member of the Prince Anyang's Mansion after   this departure." After Prince Fan said this, he bowed respectfully to the Prince Anyang again, and then turned and left.   He admitted that he was a selfish person. He was still young and didn't want to stay and wait for death with the Prince Anyang's Mansion.   It was inevitable that my father would fail. After Emperor Yan ascended the throne, Canglan was able to stand firm under the siege of several countries. It was conceivable that Emperor Yan was not a pushover.   What my father did would be discovered sooner or later. By then, it would be too late for him to escape.   That night, Prince Fan rode to the temple and found Princess Anyang, telling her everything that Prince Anyang had done.   After hearing this, Princess Anyang closed her eyes and said Amitabha, "Karma and reincarnation, those who do evil will eventually die."   She looked at her son and said, "Your decision is right. You can only save your life if you get out of here as soon as possible. Go, the farther the better, and never come back."   "Mother, can you persuade Hanrong to leave with me?"   After all, she was his sister, and Prince Fan couldn't bear it.   "I can't persuade her." Princess Anyang shook her head, "You know your sister's personality best, she won't listen to me."   Ever since Hanrong was five years old, she has come to this temple and never returned. Hanrong can even be said to resent her, how could she listen to her advice?   Moreover... Hanrong's personality is like that of King Anyang, selfish from the bottom of her heart, and no one can persuade her to make her own decision.   "But... if she doesn't leave, she will die." Prince Fan said with red eyes: "I watched my sister grow up, I can't watch her die."   Princess Anyang smiled bitterly, "You are all my children, as a mother, how can I bear to watch you die?"   She walked to the window, looked at the white snow outside the temple, and said with a distracted look: "But what can I do? Your life is your own, and it's up to you to live or die. Even if I am your mother, I can't make decisions for you."   (End of this chapter)
