Chapter 705

After dinner, Xia Xi sent Qi'er to Lianfu. When she arrived at the door, she followed the others.

A little Si and a servant girl of Lianfu had been waiting in front of the door. The little Si respectfully said, "Lady Xia, our master said that we would let you go in with us."

Xia Xi nods. As she enters Lian Fu, Xiao Si leads Qi'er to the classroom. The maid leads Xia Xi to the main courtyard.

Mrs. Lian was waiting at the gate of the yard to see Xia Xi coming. Instead of coming to her as usual, she held her hand, but respectfully gave a big salute, "I've seen the princess of war."

"Madame lien doesn't have to."

"It should be."

In the past, although Xia Xi was with Prince Zhan, she didn't have a formal reputation, and her etiquette would not be so solemn. Now different, Xia Xi is the rightful war princess, etiquette can not be abandoned.

Two people into the house, Liancheng waiting at the door, also gave Xia Xi a big gift, "Liancheng met the war princess."

Xia Xi accepted, "master Lian, why did you call me here today?"

Liancheng stood with a slightly bent waist and said, "I'm going to ask the princess for her advice. My little son's studies have improved by leaps and bounds in the past six months

Qi'er is the son of Feng Che. When the news reaches Lian Cheng's ears, Lian Cheng's eyes almost fall out. He said, for the sake of the child of a divorced woman, how did Prince Zhan transfer him from the capital? It was his own son! Xia Xi and Qi'er will stay in the capital. After all, Qi'er is the only blood of Prince Zhan's mansion. It's better to stay in the Imperial College in the capital than to teach them.

I didn't expect Xia Xi to come back with him.

I think it's not suitable for the treacherous environment in Beijing.

He can't let the only blood of the war palace be buried in the dust!

"Do you think it works?" Xia Xi frowned slightly.

Before that, she had plans to let Qi take part in the imperial examination, but now.

"Young master is very gifted in learning and knows how to draw inferences from one instance. He is the most intelligent student I have ever taught."

"In that case, you can arrange it."

"Yes."

Liancheng retreated, leaving only Xia Xi and Mrs. Lian in the house.

Mrs. Lian stood stiff and regretted what she had done before: chatting with Xia Xi and eating the food cooked by Xia Xi.

"Mrs. Lian..."

Xia Xi stood up, came to her side, took her hand, "you and I are not outsiders, why do you have to be so formal."

"I, I..."

In the past, Liancheng was in the Hanlin Academy. Anyway, she was an official family. But now Liancheng has returned home. They are ordinary people. Xia Xi is the princess of war. Her identity is different.

Xia Xi took her hand to sit on the chair, "in the capital, I'm the princess of war, but in Pingyang County, I'm still lady Xia, and there's no change in my identity."

"Can, can..."

Xia Xi patted her hand, "it's nothing, but, I always feel that we just forget to make friends, talk, I don't want to because of a change of identity, our relationship has become so strange."

"Princess..."

Even the city is pedantic, and even the lady is not a person with all kinds of delicacy, so that even the lady is excluded from the noble women circle in the capital.

After listening to Xia Xi's words, Mrs. Lian didn't know what to say.

"Princess Zhan..."

Xia Xi corrected her, "this Pingyang County, in addition to you and even master, no one knows the identity of my princess, I am Xia Niangzi."

"Xia, lady Xia."

Xia Xi nodded with a smile, "that's right, we are still us, there is no change."

Even his wife was amused by her. After laughing, she lost a lot of formality and became talkative. "Lady Xia, I thought you would stay in the capital."

"No. I'm just a country woman. Those women in Beijing who don't understand are so confused that they can't deal with them. It's better to come back to Pingyang County and be at ease. "

Even his wife covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "you are the only princess in the world. If those noble ladies in the capital knew it, they would not bite off their tongues? "

"Then I can't live in the capital any more. I'm restless and I don't know what I'll do. I'll be in trouble because there are broken tongues all over the capital."

Even the madam smiles of front Yang Hou he, completely did not have just of formality.

……

The next day, Xia Xi went to Weijia village. The workshop had already started, and the greenhouse had never stopped. In the past 20 days, he sold tens of thousands of taels of silver. Wei Qian couldn't sleep every day with his money box, and he didn't dare to go out.

Seeing her coming, he quickly held the money box and put it in her hand. Suddenly, he felt relaxed. "You can be regarded as coming. If you don't come again, I can't hold it."

Xia Xi doubts, "what's the matter?"

Wei Qian pointed to the money box, "there are too many banknotes. Even if I go to the cottage, I have to hold it."

Xia Xi can't laugh or cry, "as for it?"

"Why not? It's tens of thousands of taels of silver. If we lose it, our family can't afford to pay for it for several lives. "

"You are scared by such a small amount of money. If there is more money in the future, what will you do?" Xia Xi joked.

Wei Qian didn't want to shake his head. "No, this time it's because you haven't come for so many days that you've saved so much. If you come every few days, thousands or 10000 Liang, I'll have no problem."

Xia Xi laughs and goes into the workshop with the money box. After a turn, she goes to the house left for herself, takes out all the silver notes in the box, carries them on her body, and then goes out to give him the money box. "In the future, I may not come here so often. If you have too many silver notes, you can't rest assured. I'll buy you a carriage. You can send it to the store at about the same time every day and give it to my cousin."

Wei Qian waved his hand. "A carriage costs a lot of money. It's unnecessary. I can't do it. I'll let my father take it in a bullock cart. "

Xia Xi didn't insist either. After greeting the people in the workshop, she went to the greenhouse.

With more money for the new year, people worked harder and harder, and sweat came out on their foreheads.

Even Wei Cai picked a bucket to carry water and came back to pour vegetables. Seeing her coming, he quickly put down his work and came over with a happy look on his face. "Lady Xia, you're back."

When the workshop started, Xia Xi didn't come. The village head didn't feel at ease. He asked Zhu to inquire. Then he knew that Xia Xi had gone to her mother-in-law's home for the new year.

"Back? Is everything all right? "

"No, we all work very hard. Boss Huo is also pulling vegetables every day. Everything is very good."

Xia Xi nodded, "the greenhouse is the foundation of us. You must be optimistic."

"Don't worry, I'll never have an accident."

"Then I can rest assured. I have other things to do in a few days, and I may not come here often. If there is any problem here, you can ask someone to take a message to me or go to the county to find me."
