The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 411 Bewitching and seizing power (1)
The prince Zhou Qi said with a smile: "This prince can promise you this matter. I will also go to say hello to the people below. But when the Xiao family needs to be used in the future, I hope the Xiao family will no longer be the first and the second."

Xiao Mingyu said solemnly: "The Xiao family naturally has its own position, and our Xiao family's position is consistent with that of the Wangfu. Your Highness, please be enlightened."

The eldest son Zhou Qi smiled mockingly, "Xiao Maolin is an official in the capital, and the Xiao family's in-laws, the Han family, are even more important, a big family in the capital. So, if you say that the Xiao family's position is the same as that of the palace, this son can't believe it."

Xiao Mingyu smiled and said: "These cannot be changed, just like His Royal Highness's uncle is the emperor, and Concubine Ye is also in the palace. Is it just because of this that the efforts made by the palace over the years can be denied?"

"Good mouth."

"Your Highness is joking." Xiao Mingyu said with a smile: "Young lady made an inappropriate comparison, thank you Your Highness for not being so fussy about me."

"You also know that what you said was inappropriate. It's really rare. It's okay, I don't want to say anything unnecessary. In the future, what happens to your Xiao family depends on what your Xiao family does. If you do well, the palace will naturally not kill them all. If you don't do well, then don't blame my palace for being cruel." The crown prince Zhou Qi put down these cruel words and planned to leave.

Xiao Mingzhen hastily stated his position, saying that the Xiao family would definitely stand on the side of the palace, and would never dare to do things that the palace would not allow.

The two watched the eldest son Zhou Qi leave, and when they were gone, Xiao Mingzhen said to Xiao Mingyu: "Sister Mingyu, you were too impulsive in your words before. Even if you are familiar with His Royal Highness, you are the eldest son after all, and your status is different from ours. It's fine if the prince doesn't care about it, but if the prince cares about it, these are all crimes. Sister Mingyu, you should be more careful in what you say in the future, and don't plant hidden dangers for yourself, you know?"

"Thank you, third brother, for reminding me. I understand. I will pay attention to what I say and do in the future." Xiao Mingyu was taught humbly.

In a blink of an eye Xiao Mingzhen became happy again, "I'm lucky to have taken this trip with you today, otherwise our whole family would be caught blind."

Xiao Mingyu couldn't help pouring cold water on Xiao Mingzhen, "Third brother, don't forget, you have to bring 20 taels to the government early in the morning, and there is not much time left today. How can you get the full amount of money tomorrow morning? Please, third brother, as soon as possible." Figure out a way out."

Xiao Mingzhen woke up from the excitement in an instant, "Sister Mingyu, you are right in reminding me that I got carried away. Let's go back and collect some money."

Back at the Xiao family's old house, Xiao Mingzhen hurriedly talked about going to save the old man tomorrow morning, and also said that he had to collect 20 taels of cash before tomorrow morning.The Xiao family was shaken, but there was no time to answer everyone's questions, let alone explain the detailed process.Collecting money is the most important thing now.The rest of the matter will be discussed when Mr. Xiao comes back.

The Xiao family was up and down, but Xiao Mingyu was quiet.

Xiao Mingyu came to Fushou Hall, together with Xiao Mingxuan, to look after Mrs. Xiao for Mrs. Han.Old Mrs. Xiao was paralyzed, and the daughters-in-law, regardless of whether they were pretending or sincere, were all filial in front of the bed.It will be Han's turn. Han wants to help raise money, but he can't come.So Xiao Mingyu and Xiao Mingxuan asked Ying to take care of Mrs. Xiao.

Sitting by the bed, not doing anything, just looking at the old man on the bed, is actually a very boring and dull thing.

Hsiao Mingxuan made a gesture, saying that he was going out for a walk and would come in later.

Mother Wen has something to do for the time being, so she also went out.Xiao Mingyu stood by the bed, looking at the haggard and stiff old lady Xiao, Xiao Mingyu couldn't feel happy.Obviously, this person is dissatisfied with her a lot and makes things difficult for her. He scolds and beats her whenever he speaks.But the old lady is now ill and paralyzed, but she can't be happy.Instead, it gave birth to a feeling of desolation.Birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can escape. One day, when she gets old, will she also be reduced to the point of paralysis like Mrs. Xiao?

Xiao Mingyu laughed at herself, it seems that she is still a person with a bottom line.Your own happiness is not based on the pain of others.

But this feeling is not so good, at least not as good as Xiao Mingyu thought.Either it is bad and pure, or it has no desires and desires.She is neither of the two kinds of people, she is just a mediocre person, so she falls into the vicious circle of mediocrity.

The old lady Xiao whimpered, and Xiao Mingyu said softly, "What does the old lady want?"

"you you……"

"Yes, it's me. Is the old lady surprised?" Xiao Mingyu suddenly laughed, "The old lady doesn't know yet, the old man will be back tomorrow morning. Everyone will go to collect money now, because His Royal Highness said that tomorrow If you hand over 20 taels of silver to the government early in the morning, you will be able to bring the old man back. But the money is not in hand, and the time is short, I think it will be difficult for Er to make up 20 taels early in the morning."

"You, how could you..."

Xiao Mingyu said: "Is the old lady asking why I am here? Because my mother is not free, so I replaced me. By the way, today is my third brother and I went to see His Royal Highness. The property of our Xiao family was given to the eldest son." , the prince will be so straightforward. Now the wishful thinking of the Dongfu will come to nothing. Maybe the Dongfu will come to the old lady to make noise."

"A person with a foreign surname..."

Xiao Mingyu smiled, "So what about people with a foreign surname. The Xiao family has already fallen to this point, is it important if they have a non-surname? Instead of worrying about these issues here, the old lady should think about whether to use her private money to save the old man."

"You, you are presumptuous..."

"Yeah, my granddaughter has always been presumptuous. The old lady didn't know it until today. The old lady, the Xiao family should all be grateful to me, because of my matchmaking, the old man was able to come out so quickly. Old lady, I know you don't I like me, I didn’t like it in the past, I don’t like it now, and I won’t like it in the future. So I will never flatter the old lady in front of the old lady, let alone flatter the old lady like others. But I watched coldly, the old lady doesn’t care about us Let the granddaughter flatter you."

"You, you, disobedient and unfilial..."

Xiao Mingyu laughed at himself, "I really want to be really disobedient and unfilial, so that I don't have to rush about the Xiao family's affairs, so that I don't have to guard you, old lady, and listen to how you dislike me. But old lady, your dislike, yes It doesn't matter to me. I just do what I want to do, and no one else can interfere. Old lady, you are already like this, you should take good care of your health. The doctor said that you can't get angry when you are sick. Old lady, Do you know that you are so bad-tempered that you have fallen to this point. If your temper can be improved by two or three points, old lady, it will not be like this. "

"you you……"

"Old lady, don't be angry anymore. Someone is here, so I won't talk to the old lady. Old lady, you can recover from your illness at ease." Seeing Nanny Wen coming in, Xiao Mingyu smiled and said, "Nurse Wen, the old lady is awake. What should I do? Waiter, I don't understand, you came just in time."
