Chapter 45
The Prince's Mansion
Xue Run agreed to everything for food.
Xue Mei: "In the future, no matter what I say and what you listen to, you must not disobey me."
Xue Run: “…”
You are not my father.
But his father only gave him a meal, not as rich as his elder sister.
A real man can bend and stretch.
Xue Run hesitated for a moment and compromised without principles: "Okay. My elder sister asked me to eat shit, so I'll go and eat it too."
Xue Mei frowned and said, "When you were eating, you no wonder your father didn't like you."
Their father, Yongning Hou, was elegant and glorified by his extensive knowledge.
As a result, his two sons, one was disabled and the other was vulgar and stubborn, betting on his daughter Xue Yutan.
Even the original owner Xue Mei, who was cautious and timid, was not as open as the slightest elegance, naturally, he would not be pleased by his father.
"The father and the marquis have always disliked me." Xue Run curled his lips, "But there is no other way, he has only me, a healthy son. Let's get retribution."
Xue Mei: "..."
Somehow, I suddenly felt that this boy was very cute too.
After the siblings finished eating, the maids finished eating, and came forward to clean up the dishes.
There were two more dishes that had not been finished, including the crispy duck. Cai Yuan took them back to the yard and gave them to the two maids.
Dai's mother and others cleaned up the stone table and brought tea.
Xue Run glanced around, but there were still no mosquitoes, and sighed again: "Your mosquito coil is really useful."
Xue Mei: "It will definitely work if you make it strictly according to the formula. If there is pyrethra, it will work even more, but unfortunately there is no. Alas."
"pyrethrum?"
"It grows far away, and our ship can't go that far now. But it can be done in the future." Xue Mei smiled.
Xue Run: "Where do you know?"
"I have a master." Xue Mei said, "I almost died when I hanged. He saved me and told me."
Xue Run almost choked with a sip of tea: "It's midnight, don't scare people."
"Coward." Xue Mei smiled.
Xue Run couldn't hear others say that he was timid and unhappy, and wanted to fight with his elder sister.
The brother and brother were fighting each other, and after a cup of tea, Xue Mei was going back to rest.
She picked up the cat that had been quietly staying beside her.
Xue Run glanced at the cat: "Your cat's eyes are strange."
"How strange?"
"It's very energetic, as if you can speak." Xue Run said, "It's so terrible. It's not good that the beast is too smart. You will know it later, sister."
Xue Mei ignored it.
She has never raised a cat and likes it, which leads to the cat videos she has watched are all edited by others. In the edited videos, all the cats seemed to have become sensuals. Xue Mei subconsciously thought that cats and dogs all possess human nature.
Of course, some cats may be particularly stupid.
There are also very stupid people, let alone cats, what's so strange about them?
For example, the fifth brother in front of him doesn’t look very smart, not as good as Xue Mei’s cat.
The fifth young master went back with the disgusted look of his elder sister, eating and drinking enough, and feeling satisfied.
The next day, Xue Mei took the remaining nine plates of mosquito coils and went to the Prince's Mansion of Ancheng County.
Xue Mei held her cat in her arms, and the maid Hongluan wrapped a small jewelry box in silk cloth. The master and servant got off the carriage near the Prince's Mansion of Ancheng County.
"Miss, it's so hot, why do you have to walk?" Hongluan was sweating in the scorching sun.
Seeing her eldest lady, her cheeks were red and her nose was covered with sweat, and she was a little embarrassed.
Their master and servant were going to the Prince Ancheng Palace, and Hongluan was very worried that the eldest lady would lose her manners like this.
Among Xue Mei's maids, Hongluan knew that Prince Ancheng was Zhai Yuxuan's owner. She accompanied Xue Mei when she went to Zhai Yuxuan last time; Cai Yuan knew the secret that she could pick up things from the space.
They are all very loyal.
"The coachman is all from Aunt San." Xue Mei smiled.
Hongluan immediately understood.
These coachmen who suffered from plague would truthfully report their real master to their whereabouts of the young lady.
"Miss, you are thorough in mind." Hongluan said.
"Come on." Xue Mei said.
The two of them arrived at the Prince's Mansion of Ancheng County. They saw the tall gatehouse and the heavy and majestic gate of the Prince's Mansion, and stopped.
Hongluan mustered up the courage and stepped forward to knock on the door.
The weather was hot, and Xiao Mingyu, the prince of Ancheng County, was at home and used beads to calculate the accounts.
He has to check the accounts every other month.
After abacusing the ball, Xiao Mingyu felt more and more convenient to settle the score, and thought of the woman with a mole on her eyebrows.
He was a little confused, and the servant in the doorman came in and reported: "Prince, a girl came outside, claiming to be the eldest lady of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion."
Xiao Mingyu: “…”
He just muttered her, and she actually came to the door?
Smiling slightly, Xiao Mingyu stood up. He didn't take Qiao and went to the gate to greet Xue Mei in person.
"Miss Xue, a rare guest."
"I'm disturbing the prince." Xue Mei smiled.
"I have nothing to do, so I won't bother you, please come in." Xiao Mingyu said.
The threshold of the royal mansion is particularly high. Xue Mei is a little tiring when she crosses it, and so is the maid Hongluan.
When I entered the gate, I saw pastel walls that blocked the scenery in the palace.
Bypassing the wall, there is a large open space with a veranda on both sides; the veranda is supported by vermilion pillars, and flowers are planted on both sides. The gardener takes care of it very carefully and neatly, with a slight fragrance of flowers in the air.
At the end of the veranda, winding upwards.
Xiao Mingyu took Xue Mei to climb up the steps and saw a small attic with carved wooden boards on all sides.
"It's ventilated and cool here in summer," Xiao Mingyu explained.
He often hosts guests here.
Xue Mei looked around and nodded with a smile: "It's indeed an exquisite building, very good."
The servant brought the tea.
The two sat down, Hongluan was serving outside, Xue Mei put down the cat, let it jump out of the window, picked up the tea and drank two sips.
"Walk here?" Xiao Mingyu saw her blushing face, which made her eyebrows look like blood.
He asked this, with some jokes and jokes.
He was not a mean person at first. He knew that the Xue family was poor and should never use this matter to make fun of him. But for some reason, he spoke a little unpretentiously at Xue Mei.
Maybe it was because he had never seen this young lady feel embarrassed, so he took the blame to her weakness.
Xue Mei: "Yes."
"Miss Xue is poor again?"
Xue Mei still didn't show any shame or annoyance when she said this, and smiled and replied: "Yes, so I'm here to trade with the prince."
He is very thick-skinned and has a sophisticated speech.
Prince Ancheng felt more and more that this young lady was unusual.
He calmed down: "What business?"
Xue Mei took out the mosquito coil that Hongluan had placed on the table before and gave it to Prince Ancheng.
She told him what this thing was, how to use it, and what its effect was, and the Prince Ancheng listened casually.
After Xue Mei finished speaking, his expression seemed to be distracted: "I have something to do, please let Miss Xue make it clear."
