How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 185 What have we done to offend you?
Old Dong repeated what he had just said.

Xiaogou rubbed her forehead; she knew this marriage wouldn't be so easy to back out of. But why?

Eighteen looked at Xiaogousheng with great confusion: "What are you worried about? Why don't we just arrange a marriage for our second niece before they do?"

It's not that simple. "Who should we choose?"

"I think Zhao Dapeng is a good guy."

Little Dog Sheng was surprised that someone actually had a choice at eighteen. "You've got a good eye for talent."

Eighteen puffed out her little chest proudly. "Of course, of the thousand elite soldiers the Emperor gave you, Zhao Dapeng is the most capable."

indeed.

Just as Shiba was wondering whether she should go and discuss it with her grandparents, her grandmother's voice came from outside. "Shiba, Gousheng, Shiba, Gousheng..."

When Shiba heard Granny Tian calling them, she replied, "Mother, we're here."

A moment later, Granny Tian came in.

Granny Tian was overjoyed. "Your second niece, your second sister's marriage is settled."

Little Dog Sheng: "..." So fast? Is the Emperor really trying to tie her family and Dean Nangong together?

Eighteen: "Mother, we're thinking the same thing. Mother, have you also taken a liking to Zhao Dapeng?"

"What are you talking about? What did we think of at the same time?"

Eighteen blinked. "Didn't you say your second niece's marriage was settled?"

"Yes."

"In such a short time, we can only choose from my niece's thousand elite soldiers."

Granny Tian understood. "There's no need to choose from among them; Young Master Xi is willing to come to our house."

Eighteen was immediately displeased. "I don't want to, I look down on him."

Granny Tian laughed as soon as she heard that. "What do you know, you little kid? You look down on them? Do you even know how well they study?"

"What's the use of just being good at studying? You're as dumb as a pig."

"You silly child." Granny Tian was in a good mood, otherwise she would have definitely given him eighteen slaps. "Don't say that again. Young Master Xi will be your second nephew-in-law from now on. If you don't understand anything, just ask your second nephew-in-law. Your second nephew-in-law is very knowledgeable."

"I do not want it."

"You silly child. Alright, I just wanted to let you know. You guys have fun, I'm going to get back to work." With that, Granny Tian turned to leave.

"Wait a minute." Little Dog Sheng quickly grabbed Granny Tian's arm. "How do you know that Young Master Xi is willing to be my second sister's live-in son-in-law?"

"That's what the wife of the Minister of Justice said."

"She's here to act as matchmaker for my second sister and Young Master Xi?"

Granny Tian nodded. "Finally, I can get a good night's sleep. I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days because of worry. Now it's all good, your second sister's marriage is settled. By the way, the wife of the Minister of Justice said that Dean Nangong agreed to personally guide your eldest brother and the others."

Her grandmother was already worried that her second sister would not be able to get married, and with Dean Nangong saying so, how could her grandmother refuse?
The little dog rubbed its forehead. "Grandma, didn't you discuss this with Grandpa?" If its grandma had discussed it with its grandpa, its grandpa would definitely have asked it.

"Is this even up for discussion? Your grandpa would be crazy not to agree. Alright, you guys have fun."

Eighteen: "Mother, that young master Xi is no good."

"What do you know, you little brat?"

"Mom! I'm eight years old."

"Eight years old is still a little kid." Granny Tian said and left.

Eighteen was extremely upset. "Why is Mother like this?"

The little dog sighed inwardly. "Your second niece was engaged, but she fell into the lake with Young Master Xi, so it'll be hard for her to find a husband."

"You have a thousand elite soldiers."

"They may be willing, but their parents might not be."

Eighteen pouted. "Why is Your Majesty like this?"

The little dog took a deep breath. "Let's go, let's go to the palace to find him." "Okay!"

The uncle and nephew discussed it for a while, told Granny Tian, ​​and then went out.

Granny Tian told them not to cause trouble and then left them to their own devices.

The uncle and nephew went straight to the palace.

Qian Shiba walked up to the young guard at the gate and bowed. "Young general, I am Qian Shiba, and that is my niece. We wish to go in to pay our respects to the Empress Dowager. Could you please inform her for us?"

"No need to announce your arrival. Her Highness the Dowager Consort said you can come in whenever you want."

"Thank you, young general. Young general, then we'll go in."

"Okay. I'll find someone to show you the way."

"it is good."

As the Emperor was reading the memorials, the commander of the secret guards emerged from the shadows. "Your Majesty, Qian Shiba and Qian Gousheng have come to the palace to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor stood up. "I will also go and pay my respects to the Dowager Consort."

The Emperor took a couple of steps and then sat back down. "Never mind, there will be plenty of opportunities later. Has the matter between Young Master Xi and Qian Xiahua been settled?"

"It's settled. Grandma Qian was worried that her granddaughter wouldn't be able to get married."

Meanwhile, Consort Tao was delighted to hear that Shiba and Little Dog Sheng had arrived. "Let's go to the Imperial Kitchen and see what new pastries they have?"

"Yes."

A moment later, Shiba and Xiaogou Sheng came in.

Just as the two were about to bow to Consort Tao, she pulled them into her arms. "You two rascals, why did it take you so long to come to the palace to see me? By the way, where are Nineteen and Twenty?"

Eighteen: "Nineteen and Twenty went to visit their maternal uncle."

"We need to stay at my uncle's house, otherwise we won't recognize each other if we bump into each other on the street."

Eighteen: "Hmm. Your Highness, why don't you come stay at my house anymore? I miss you so much."

Consort Tao patted the eighteen-year-old boy's bald head. "I missed you all too."

"Then why don't you come stay at my house? My house is really big now."

Consort Tao smiled. "I'll tell you when you're older."

"Alright. Your Highness, could you take me to see the Emperor? I told my new friends that I had met the Emperor, but they didn't believe me and said I was just bragging."

Consort Tao laughed upon hearing this. "Why not? I'll have the Emperor pack you a few boxes of palace pastries, then they won't be able to say you're bragging."

"Yes. Your Highness, you are so kind."

The Emperor was wondering what the Eighteenth Prince was doing at Consort Tao's place when Consort Tao arrived with the Eighteenth Prince and Little Dog Sheng. A smile flashed in the Emperor's eyes. "Little Dog Sheng, you dare to come here again? Aren't you afraid I'll punish you?"

The little dog rolled her eyes inwardly. She wouldn't have come if she weren't worried about herself and her third sister also suddenly having an extra fiancé. "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

"Get up. If you dig up someone else's grave again in the future, I won't let it go so easily."

"Understood. Your Majesty, may I ask you something?"

"Just ask."

The puppy looked around.

The Emperor also found the palace maids an eyesore. "You little girl, all of you may leave."

"Yes."

In the blink of an eye, all the palace servants had left.

The Emperor looked at the little dog Sheng and laughed, "Is that enough?"

The little dog straightened his clothes and looked at the emperor, asking, "Your Majesty, why do you insist on linking our family with Dean Nangong?"

Eighteen then asked, "What did our family do to offend you that you insist on sending us an idiot? Tell us, and we'll change it."
