Princess Fortune

Chapter 118
After returning from Zhao Lan's place, Xu Tang quietly asked Xu Mei: "Sister, do you think Zhao Lan is so handsome that you want to recruit a husband?"

Xu Mei blushed immediately, and stretched out her hand to pinch Xu Tang: "Just open your mouth and talk nonsense!"

Xu Mei is like this, but there is no silver 300 taels here.

Xu Tang sighed, grabbed Xu Mei seriously, and looked into her eyes solemnly: "Sister, let me tell you something. It's related to Zhao Lan."

Xu Mei had seen Xu Tang's solemn look, so of course she knew that Xu Tang was no longer a child at this time.

Xu Mei was also a bit more solemn: "Say it."

"Big sister can choose anyone to be her husband, but Zhao Lan can't." When Xu Tang said this, his expression was very serious, and he looked at Xu Mei without blinking.

Xu Mei didn't expect her to say such a sentence suddenly, she was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she was at a loss and asked dryly, "Why?"

Seeing Xu Mei like this, Xu Tang knew that Xu Mei had really moved her mind.

If she hadn't moved her mind, Xu Mei would never have said such a sentence.

Instead, she should scold her head and face, saying that she made fun of herself.

Xu Tang looked at Xu Mei, and answered her word for word: "Because Zhao Lan is an eunuch."

Xu Mei's expression changed from bewildered to bewildered.

Xu Mei stammered and asked, "Eunuch, what's wrong with the eunuch?"

Xu Mei didn't know what the eunuch represented, after all Xu Mei was still a big girl.

Xu Tang was a little helpless, but it was embarrassing to talk about this in broad daylight.So she waved to Xu Mei, and then explained a few words in a low voice next to Xu Mei's ear.

"A eunuch is a man who has cut off the roots of his descendants. He cannot be a real man for the rest of his life. Eunuchs are not humane, so they cannot marry a wife and have children to continue the incense."

Xu Tang watched Xu Mei slowly open his mouth wide, and finally he could even stuff an egg into it.

Xu Mei finally understood now.

Xu Mei just opened her mouth wide in surprise for a long time, and finally lost her mind: "But...but..."

Seeing Xu Mei like this, Xu Tang was once again glad that he had noticed it at this moment.

If Xu Mei is really moved by waiting and getting in touch with her a lot, then she should be sad.

This will at most have some goodwill, and it can be regarded as being crushed in the cradle.

In fact, Xu Tang didn't say that there were quite a few court ladies who were married to eunuchs in the palace.Although the eunuch can't be humane, he is also a real person with feelings and knows what it means to be considerate and caring.

But that was no other choice.

But Xu Mei was different.Even if she put aside the grievances between her and Zhao Lan, she would not let Xu Mei suffer with Zhao Lan.

Xu Mei lowered her head, not knowing what to think, just followed Xu Tang back in a daze.

When she was almost at home, Xu Mei suddenly raised her head and asked, "How do you know?"

Xu Tang clearly knew what Xu Mei was thinking, and he smiled angrily: "Sister still thinks I lied to you? The young master told me this."

Xu Mei was speechless.

She did wonder for a moment, whether Xu Tang didn't like Zhao Lan, that's why...

But more of it was a fluke, maybe Xu Tang was wrong about such a thing?

"Why do you think Zhao Lan looks good?" Xu Tang told her the truth slowly: "All eunuchs, because they can't grow beards, their voices don't get thicker, and the older they grow, the more they look like girls. Zhao Lan Born like a man?"

Zhao Lan was indeed different from every boy Xu Mei had ever met.

Xu Tang sighed again: "Sister, even if I really have a feud with Zhao Lan, but if you really like it, I don't have to beat the mandarin ducks. I also hope that you can find someone you like, and you will be peaceful and beautiful for the rest of your life." .”

Xu Mei looked at Xu Tang, speechless.

"Sister, the only thing we have to do now is to make something suitable and make money. Only power and wealth can make us become masters. You and I don't have to think about the test of merit, then The only thing left is to make money." When Xu Tang said these words, he felt that he was a little bitter.

Xu Mei nodded, and walked home in silence.

Xu Tang didn't say much.

That's how it went.

However, from now on, Xu Mei's attitude towards Zhao Lan is destined to change.

Xu Tang thought to himself, Zhao Lan was an eunuch in his previous life, but in this life, Zhao Lan chose to be by Ye Qingshi's side, so he will still be an eunuch in the future.

Moreover, people like Zhao Lan are cruel and ruthless, Xu Mei is far from his opponent, and is not suitable at all.

Therefore, Xu Tang did not feel guilty at all when he did such a thing and said such a thing.

She doesn't know whether Zhao Lan is an eunuch now, but she will definitely be in the future.

Xu Tang spent the next few days painstakingly studying how to make the packaging of the rouge cream.

So much so that I was a little absent-minded in doing anything.

Until I heard an interesting story when I was in Ye Qing.

Ye Qingshi read the news from the capital, and suddenly chuckled: "This Zhen family is really interesting."

Xu Tang suddenly became interested: "What happened to the Zhen family? Didn't the Zhen family just find their daughter?"

"Well. As soon as I found it back, Madam Zhen's illness was mostly cured, but I didn't expect that the husband and wife would have a quarrel because of Miss Zhen's listing on the genealogy. And the young master of the Zhen family even refused to admit it. This younger sister—" Ye Qingshi put down the envelope, with a half-smile: "Old Madam Zhen still wants to make an engagement for Miss Zhen."

Xu Tang's eyes widened all of a sudden: "Chongxi? Could it be that you want to give it to Your Majesty—"

Xu Tang recalled what Xu Jinbao said to himself, and suddenly felt a little interesting: "Speaking of which, my younger brother told me about the process of the Zhen family's search for relatives, and the ages and birth months were also matched. Then I took it back like this. I gave 100 taels of silver, and I bought it completely."

"It's not like looking for relatives, but it looks like they're here to buy a maid." Xu Tang mused, his voice getting lower and lower--"And I heard from Jin Bao and my sister that the family is cheating money."

Will it, really not?

Ye Qingshi already knew all these things clearly, so he immediately smiled: "You are quite smart, too."

This remark was a tacit agreement with Xu Tang's words.

Xu Tang was even more astonished: "Why?"

"Don't they really want to find their daughter?"

Xu Tang's doubts did not last long.

And Ye Qingshi didn't intend to elaborate, instead he suddenly joked: "You can think about it, if you understand it, if you think it right, I will reward you with a good thing."

After speaking, I really took out a box from the drawer and opened it gently.

Inside is a string of beads, smooth and clear, like jade.But it's not like jade——

"If you figure it out, I'll reward you." Ye Qingshi didn't change his face when he said this.

He didn't say that this was actually for Xu Tang.

　Do you understand the purpose of the Zhen family~
