Just as Xiuniang was hesitating, she turned her head and saw Xu Zixian standing by the east gate with her robe.

This was the first time Xiuniang saw Xu Zixian's face turned pale... The prince rarely lost his temper. Once, Xiao Yiran accidentally poured hot water on the prince and burned it a few times. The prince just smiled and just bounced it on Yiran's forehead a few times.

Now the young woman feels her heartbeat. For some reason, she feels like she has done something wrong and was caught...

"It was Li Fu who came to pester me, and I have never ignored him..." The woman said this without knowing how to speak, and then she knew that she had said the wrong thing, and her face instantly went from white to red.

Xu Zi heard this first and laughed.

He still had murderous aura in his eyes, holding his robe with his left hand, and pressing his right hand on the barrier knife.

When Li Fu was teasing Xiu Niang, Xu Zi pressed it directly on the barrier knife, but in the end he still didn't take action.

He looked at the woman's eyes with tears in her eyes and said seriously: "I'm not sure yet."

After saying this, Xu Zi first put his robe by the well, looked at Xiuniang, and said, "Don't worry."

"Yes." Xiuniang replied subconsciously.

The woman then blushed again. What's wrong with herself?

At that moment, I forgot that I was a woman with a husband!

Thinking of Xie Quan, Xiuniang's body was trembling, that devil-like man.

The sound of washing clothes sounded in the patio. Xiuniang immersed her mind on the work and slowly, carefully washed the prince's robe. It seemed that doing such a thing would slowly calm her mood.

...

Xu Zi first returned to his residence and called the servant Xu Ming, asking him to take the dirty clothes to the well to wash Xiuniang, but he sat in the chair and thought.

It is true that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. He knows that the Marquis's mansion is not enough to make ends meet, and he also knows that the Li family's father and son are making trouble. Li Cheng doesn't know how many benefits he has gained from the Guanzhuang.

His father Xu Yingbin had always wanted to deal with this matter before his death, but his father was the Marquis of Nan'an and was also the Qizhou defense envoy appointed by the court. He specially led the three villages of Qizhou to resist the Qishan thieves. As a result, the last battle with the Qishan thieves failed. His father was dismissed from the official and was criticized. He was arrested for being questioned for being questioned by the capital for fear of being questioned. His father was always worried. Later, he did not enter the water and rice and said that he died of illness but only claimed to the public that his father died of hunger strike.

Perhaps because the Hou's Mansion has always been short of money, Xu Yingbin is not like other royal nobles. He has a dozen concubines at home, as well as a opera troupe and a juggling troupe. He invites guests every day and plays antique tools, and does not have much energy to devote to his family.

Xu Yingbin is different. Every day, he teaches Xu Zixian poetry, songs, music, music, calligraphy and painting. Unfortunately, Xu Zixian was a loser at that time. His father was just a Confucian scholar, but his miscellaneous knowledge was profound. After all, the royal family had a lot of free time and he was also a master...

Xu Zixian sat in the room. The servant Xu Ming was not there and no one was holding the lights. The sky gradually darkened and the moonlight shone through the window. He sat in a daze. Thinking of his father's instructions at the time of death and his unwilling eyes, Xu Zixian's eyes felt a little sore...

"Brother, it's time for supper."

The little girl walked in and complained, "Why don't you light the lights? The newspaper was sent by a carriage. You complain every day that there is no newspaper here, and you hide here when you come..."

After saying a few words, the little sister lit the light and looked at Xu Zixian's face. The little sister said worriedly: "What's wrong with you?"

Xu Zixian said: "Just just now, Li Fu's dog hit me and ran away without saying a word."

The little sister said, "You don't have to worry about him. Well, this person is going to be driven out. The look he looked at me also made me feel uncomfortable."

Xu Zixian was furious when he heard this!

This dog Li Fu not only teases Xiuniang, but also dares to make decisions on his own girl?

"It's just that Li Tiguan is not easy to share..." The little girl looked worried. She didn't look like a girl under thirteen years old at this time. Looking at Xu Zixian's eyes, she seemed to have a bit of a desire to protect her brother.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything in Meng Lang..."

Xu Zi was always held hostage by his family slaves in his previous life, and his life was always difficult. After becoming an adult, he was unable to officially inherit his title. He was excluded from the Fuzhou royal family and was completely a marginal figure.

Of course this cannot be done in this life, but he doesn’t have to hurry. He can be calm and take his time.

Of course, at this moment, Xu Zi had murderous intentions first, and he knew very clearly what Li Cheng was hateful.

The younger sister walked out with him and suddenly said, "If my brother really wants to expel the Li family father and son, you can ask Mr. Li of Fengchang what he thought."

Xu Zixian's eyes lit up. In the past few months, he could only adjust his body and slowly affect the opinions of the people around him. At least, the younger sister and the people in the other yard knew that the prince's personality had changed drastically and had become quite calm, completely different from before.

I think this is true for Fengchang Li Yi, who was quite disappointed with him in his previous life. Li Yi would resign soon after his previous life, obviously was quite disappointed with Xu Zixian... This man was from Daming Prefecture, Hebei Province, and was from a Juren, who failed the Jinshi many times. Later, he was attracted by Xu Yingbin, the Marquis of Nan'an who went to Beijing. Xu Yingbin went to report his duties at the time. Later, he returned to Fujian Road to serve as the defense envoy of Qizhou. However, he did not recruit Li Yi as his subordinate official, but asked Li Yi to serve as his eighth rank official position. Xu Yingbin's promise to Li Yi was that when he was the governor of the state in the future, he could recruit Li Yi as an official as an official in the military. This kind of official position with real power was quite rare. He was also from the seventh rank, and Li Yi could show his strength...

But after Xu Yingbin was defeated, he had no chance to be the governor, let alone promote Li Yi?

Moreover, the laws of the court are changing now, and it is becoming increasingly difficult for the royal family to serve in the royal family. There are only a handful of royal families who can hold higher vocations. Even if Xu Zixian is not a child of a playboy, it is difficult for him to become an official. Li Yi can no longer feel that he has any future and future on Fujian Road.

"Let's go, go eat..." Xu Zixian felt that he had a vague sense of his thoughts, and finally found the key to breaking the dilemma, and was in a good mood for a moment!

After touching the little girl's head, Xu Zi laughed first and took the lead in walking out.

The little girl looked at her mentally retarded again, but the smile on her face was quite bright.

Compared to the bad guys in the past, my younger sister certainly likes the older brother now.

The canteen in the other courtyard is placed in the west wing on the north hall. It is dark and it is pitch black everywhere. This is not like the light sources everywhere in later generations. If there is no starlight and moonlight, it will be illuminated by ghost fire candles or oil lamps. These two things are quite expensive. Oil lamps are cheaper, and candle middle-class families do not need to be used.

When Xu Zi first pushed the door in, the room was not much brighter than outside. There were only a few oil lamps in the room. The wind that Xu Zi first pushed the door in was swaying left and right, shaking large patches of light and shadows on the wall.

There were Xiuniang and another servant who helped the kitchen in the room. The women were preparing vegetables. They were all the households of the government-branch who came to the nearby village to perform labor service.

There are also gatekeepers, patrol patrolers, gardens, cooks, vegetable farmers, and about ten people. Of course, these people are free labor, and people from each village take turns to work.

My father was a defense envoy of a state at that time. According to the rules of the court, his father Xu Yingxing's monthly salary was fifty cents, one thousand cents, plus the money of firewood, grain, office money, ministerial money, tea soup, coupons, kitchen materials, etc. There are also yuan, clothes and materials, and the monthly income of my father is the sum of all the miscellaneous expenses, reaching more than a hundred cents, and the ministerial money was three thousand cents, which were used up and supplemented. There was also a job land, and there were also a few dozen cents of income each year.

In total, Xu Yingxing earned millions of dollars a year when he was alive, but his father rarely used ministerial money for his own use. Therefore, after several years of being an official, he only repaired the ancestral home of the city and paid off some old debts. He passed away without even the money to repair the other courtyard.

As soon as my father left, the income of the Marquis's mansion dropped by more than 90%, and he returned to between poverty and food and clothing.

The salary of the royal family of the Great Wei Dynasty cannot be compared with that of the officials, and it is too far apart.

Of course, even if the salary is small, it is not like the Marquis's Mansion being so poor. The most important thing is that it is controlled by Li Cheng, and a large amount of income is filled with it.

Xu Zi had a kind face, nodded lightly to Xiuniang, and nodded to the middle-aged servant.

Xiuniang replied with a smile, and the etiquette was very thoughtful.

Xu Zixian was a little disappointed...

For dinner, we steamed a big yellow croaker, a few vegetables and a large bowl of steamed rice.

The Hou Mansion also maintained a separate meal system. Xu Zixian and Xiaomei had a tray in front of each of them, and the fish and vegetables were separated. After the brother and sister sat down, Xiuniang and the servant lady also started to eat on the table on the other side.

Xu Zixian's servant Xu Ming and the little maid Yiran also gathered together with Xiu Niang and the servant lady.

They only have a plate of boiled vegetables with brown rice, and the amount is enough.

Before this, they had to wait until Xu Zixian and his sister finished eating before they could start. Xu Zixian and the others ate together, at least this would save fuel consumption.

After hearing this reason, the girls all expressed their support, and the younger sister even praised Xu Zixian for a rare comment.

On the right side of Xu Zixian's right hand, there was a stack of newspapers emitting the fragrance of ink. These were weekly and evening newspapers from several newspaper banks in Fuzhou City in the past week. Five or six copies were sent in one place. Such a large stack of newspapers, some were three copper coins per, some were five coins, and the errands sent to the newspaperman, totaling 130 cents.

This was also a considerable expense for the Hou Mansion. Xu Zixian convinced her younger sister that she was not in Fuzhou now and was completely disregarded by the major affairs of the court and local affairs. This would be impossible.

My younger sister suspected that my brother wanted to read those erotic gossip articles. How could he care about the major affairs of the court? However, my elder brother has become much more calm in recent months. He often reads some texts like the court's residences. It is boring, but my elder brother reads them with relish. From this point of view, I am afraid that it will really make some progress.

Xu Zixian was very happy when he saw the newspaper. He was pitiful to think about it. Reading books and newspapers is probably the last entertainment in later generations... Is the games not fun or the movies not good to watch, and he actually wants to read the newspaper?

Now that a stack of newspapers is placed in front of me, Xu Zi didn't care about eating, so he picked up a copy and read it.
