How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 239 Extremely Disappointed
Tang Shilang wanted to say, "I'll just stay away from you," but he couldn't bear to. "Are you Xiao Liu's biological mother?"

"Of course." Life is all about eating and drinking. Eating and drinking well is the most important thing. As for everything else? Everything else is fleeting. Besides, if the mother and daughter were ambitious, the mistress wouldn't tolerate them. They should eat and drink more well. "Don't I look so much like Xiao Liu?"

Tang Shilang rubbed his forehead. "I really can't do anything with you two."

Aunt Liu kissed Minister Tang again. "It's not that you can't do anything about us, it's that you love us. I've composed a new piece of music, would you like to hear it?"

Of course I want to. "Play it for me."

"it is good."

Time flies, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.

The puppy is coming back with only one line left.

The Emperor summoned the Duke of Jin to the palace. After the Duke of Jin paid his respects to the Emperor, the Emperor dismissed all the palace servants. "I wish to personally go and fetch Xiao Jiu."

"Do you wish to reveal the Ninth Prince's identity now?"

"..." The Emperor glared at the Duke of Jin. "Can't you just go along with what I'm saying?"

The Duke of Jin also wanted to follow the Emperor's lead. However, he said, "Your Majesty, you probably don't want to reveal the Ninth Prince's identity yet, do you?"

The Emperor glared at the Duke of Jin again. "Is that even a question?" He only had this one healthy son. He wouldn't easily reveal Xiao Jiu's identity.

The Duke of Jin looked at the Emperor and said, "Then you'd better not go. If you go, people will definitely overthink things, and if they overthink, they might guess that Eighteen is your son."

The Emperor took a sip of tea, feeling dejected. "Isn't there Dong Laoqi?"

"What if someone realizes that Dong Laoqi is a man?"

Why are you so annoying?

"I don't want to either. But, in case... Your Majesty, please be patient a little longer."

The Emperor leaned back in his chair. "Alright. Tell them to come to the palace to see me as soon as they return."

"it is good."

"Tell me, what has Xiao Jiu become like now?"

"His Highness is definitely more mature than before."

"How could he not be mature? Qian Gousheng pushed everything onto Xiao Jiu."

"Hehe... None of the three Qian brothers are very capable. Gousheng probably wants the Ninth Prince to support the Qian family."

"Hmph! She's just lazy."

"Hehe...Your Majesty, would you like to play chess? Your subject will play chess with you."

Stop changing the subject.

Duke Jin touched his nose. "Qian Gousheng's success can be considered a lucky accident."

"Humph!"

"Your Majesty, please don't hold it against her."

"Humph!"

"If you're really angry, just beat her up."

"Humph!"

"Your Majesty, you really cannot go to fetch the Ninth Prince in person."

"Humph!"

"Your Majesty, it's time for His Highness the Ninth Prince to be engaged. Whose daughter would you like him to marry?"

The Emperor finally stopped humming. "I haven't decided yet. What suggestions do you have?"

The Duke of Jin thought for a moment. "What do you think of the Duke of Lu's eldest granddaughter?"

"not so good."

"What about Lord Qi's youngest daughter?"

"It's not that great either."

……

The Duke of Jin suggested several people, but the Emperor was not satisfied with any of them. The Duke of Jin felt that the Emperor was too picky. "How about we wait for the Ninth Prince to return and ask him what kind of person he prefers?"

"Okay. When are you planning to go pick up Xiao Jiu?"

"I plan to go tomorrow." So I don't want to hear you grumbling.

"Forget it, you'd better not go."

"...Your Majesty, why have you changed your mind again?"

The Emperor took a sip of tea. "You'd be quite conspicuous if you went." "I can take Yuanyuan with me. Yuanyuan has long wanted to know what her Aunt Gousheng looks like."

As the emperor picked up the chessboard, he said, "If I can't go, you're not allowed to go either."

"You're so petty. Alright. Luckily, I didn't tell Yuanyuan, otherwise she would have ignored me again."

The Emperor placed the chessboard on the table. "Has Yuanyuan gained weight again?"

"My granddaughter is not fat."

"Your granddaughter's legs are almost too stiff to bend, yet she's not fat?"

“My granddaughter is very strong.”

"cut!"

On the other side, Granny Tian was so happy to hear that the little dog, Sheng Yixing, was coming back that her eyes narrowed into slits. "He's finally coming back!"

The others were happy too.

Zhao said, "If Xia Hua doesn't come back soon, she'll be an old maid."

Xia Hua's face flushed red instantly. "Mother!"

Zhao: "Mother is not wrong."

Xia Hua threw herself into Granny Tian's arms. "Grandma, look at my mother."

"Hahahaha... That's just how your mother is, don't take it to heart."

Madam Zhang smiled and said, "Yes. Xia Hua, have you finished embroidering your dowry yet?"

Xia Hua buried her face in Granny Tian's arms. "Grandma, my second aunt is so mean."

"Hahaha... Yes, yes, your second aunt is so mean. Is your dowry embroidered yet?"

"Grandma, you're making fun of me too."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

On the other side, Lady Wei, the wife of the Duke of Wei, and Lady Kong Luoyi, the wife of the Duke of Wei's heir, were also overjoyed. Their beloved son/grandson was coming home!

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had discussed it with the Duchess of Jin and Qian Chunhua well in advance.

On the other side, the puppy and the others were also quite happy.

When the puppy was still more than ten miles from the capital, the Qian family, the Duchess of Wei, Kong Luoyi, the Duchess of Jin, and Qian Chunhua came to greet them. Qian Chunhua was holding a chubby baby in her arms.

The chubby baby was excited to see a bunch of older boys and girls: "Wow! So many people!"

Eighteen, along with Nineteen and Twentieth, and Five Oxen and Six Oxen, rode up on their horses. "Mother, we're back!"

Granny Tian happily wiped her eyes. "Hey! Slow down!"

Eighteen: "Mother, don't worry, we've all mastered it."

Nineteen: "Yes, Great-Grandma, don't worry."

20: "Great-Grandma, we'll show you how to shoot an arrow on horseback."

Upon hearing this, Granny Tian immediately shouted, "You dare! Are you asking for a beating?"

The three boys all laughed.

Eighteen jumped off his horse and threw himself into Granny Tian's arms. "Mother, did you miss me?"

Nineteen and Twenty ran to the parents-in-law of the Jin and Wei states, respectively. "Grandma, Mother, did you miss me?"

Little Jiang Yuanyuan most wants to know what her Aunt Gousheng looks like. "Aunt Gousheng, Aunt Gousheng."

The little dog, Sheng, walked over with a grin. "Were you looking for me?"

Jiang Yuanyuan looked at the little dog, Sheng, who was thin and short, and figured she couldn't possibly be her Aunt Sheng. Her Aunt Sheng was incredibly powerful. "No. I'm looking for my Aunt Sheng. Have you seen her?"

The little dog Sheng looked at Jiang Yuanyuan and smiled, "I'm your Aunt Sheng."

"No."

"If you don't believe me, ask your mother."

Jiang Yuanyuan looked at Qian Chunhua.

Qian Chunhua laughed and said, "This is your Aunt Gousheng. Call her Aunt."

Jiang Yuanyuan didn't believe it. "Grandmother?"

The Duchess of Jin laughed and said, "Haven't you been wanting to see your Aunt Gou Sheng for a long time? Quickly call her Aunt."

Jiang Yuanyuan was terribly disappointed. "Wow... she's not my Aunt Gousheng. My Aunt Gousheng is so amazing! She's not amazing at all. She's not my Aunt Gousheng. She's skinny and small; she couldn't even kill a wild boar. She's not my Aunt Gousheng. Wow..."

Little Dog Sheng: "..." Who told her little niece that she could kill a wild boar? Come out here!
