How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 247 You Must Seize the Opportunity

Gou Sheng straightened his back. "Because I'm both smart and capable."

Granny Tian also thought her little granddaughter was quite capable. "They've given you so many things, don't you want to go out and explain to the outside world that you're not the emperor's illegitimate daughter?"

"No." She and the Emperor were in the same boat. When she led the students into the city, she was so arrogant not only because she didn't want her uncle to kneel before people, but also because she wanted to draw attention to herself.

"You silly child, they've been so kind to you, and you're not even going to defend them."

"Hehe..." Gou Sheng said, swaying back and forth while holding onto Granny Tian's arm, "Just let me play a little longer."

"You child, how old are you and you're still so playful?"

"hey-hey……"

On the other side, Consort Yang, knowing that the Empress and the Crown Prince had not only not fought with Gou Sheng, but had also gone to deliver a bunch of gifts to him, smashed a cup in anger. "Go and call the Third Prince over."

"Yes."

A moment later, the Third Prince arrived. "Mother."

"Hmm." Consort Yang glanced at the palace servants in the room, and they left.

Consort Yang caught her breath. "You know the Crown Prince went to deliver gifts to Qian Gousheng, right?"

"know."

"You should go too."

"what?"

Consort Yang glared at the Third Prince. "You want Qian Gousheng to only have the Crown Prince in his heart?"

"I understand, I'll go right away."

"Ah."

Granny Tian wanted to say a few more words to her granddaughter when Qian Laifu came in and said that the Third Prince had arrived.

Granny Tian immediately looked at her granddaughter. "Did the Third Prince also come to give you a gift?"

"Eighty percent yes."

Granny Tian: Are these princes stupid? "You're still accepting them?"

"receive."

Granny Tian was a little embarrassed. "Maybe we shouldn't accept it?"

“I have already accepted the Crown Prince. If I don’t, he will think that I don’t like him.”

"……Fine."

"I've gone to see the Third Prince."

"Ok."

As soon as Xiao Gousheng left, Granny Tian started to worry. "What if they find out later that Gousheng isn't their sister? Will they come after him?"

Qian Laifu wasn't worried at all. "As long as Gou Sheng dares to take it, there's nothing to worry about."

Granny Tian glared at Qian Laifu. "How old is Gousheng?"

"You can tell what a person will be like at three years old. Gousheng was smart from a young age."

On the other side, Gousheng greeted the Third Prince in a very open and generous manner.

The Third Prince didn't want to bother with Gou Sheng. However, this little girl had a bunch of capable people under her command. "Hello. You've done so much for those orphans, I thank you on their behalf."

Gou Sheng smiled. "It's all I should do."

The Third Prince thought to himself, "You're quite arrogant." Then he looked at the little dog Sheng and smiled, "Although it's what you should do, it's really hard work. I didn't bring much with me, so please don't refuse."

"Alright. Well? I don't have anything to give in return, so I'll have my Grandpa Chang help you get some treatment."

During the years they were away, the Emperor would periodically send the medical records of his sons and grandsons to Physician Chang. Physician Chang would then prescribe medicines for them based on their medical records and the Crown Prince's feedback. After the prescriptions were prepared, the Emperor would then find a way to get them to take them.

"Do you know who my Grandpa Chang is?"

Of course I know. "Dr. Chang."

"That's right. Let's go."

The third prince didn't want to go. "I'm perfectly healthy."

Gou Sheng pushed his gift back. "If you don't go, I'll feel bad accepting your gift, and I won't give you a return gift."

The Third Prince thought to himself, "Who gives a doctor's visit as a return gift?" before standing up. "Let's go, I really can't do anything with you."

"hey-hey……"

As Doctor Chang was packing his things, Gou Sheng walked over with the Third Prince. "Grandpa Chang, this is the Third Prince. He brought me many gifts. Please let him take a good look at them."

"Row."

Doctor Chang took the Third Prince's pulse. After taking his pulse, Doctor Chang took out his silver needles. The Third Prince thought: "Really? He's just going through the motions." "Doctor Chang, am I really sick?"

"Ah."

"The imperial physician would check my pulse every two days to ensure my safety."

"I am a miracle doctor."

Third Prince: I know you are a miracle doctor, but could you please be a little more humble? "Thank you for your help."

“It’s quite troublesome.”

"..."

The divine physician Chang gave the third prince a good beating and then prescribed him a medicine. "Alright, you can leave now."

The third prince moved around and felt more comfortable than before. "Thank you."

Doctor Chang: "Hmm."

Gousheng: "If you're not feeling well, come find me, and I'll have my Grandpa Chang take a look at you."

"Alright. Did you also show it to the Crown Prince?"

"Yes."

As expected. Her mother was indeed clever.

After the other princes learned that the Crown Prince and the Third Prince had gone to the Qian family to give gifts to Qian Gousheng, they also brought gifts to the Qian family. They received the same gifts in return.

This confirms Gou Sheng's identity completely.

After the Emperor learned that Gousheng had given the doctor a gift in return, he sent Gousheng two more cartloads of fine things.

Granny Tian was completely numb.

That night, after lying in bed, Granny Tian couldn't help but say to Qian Laifu, "Do you think the Emperor switched our little granddaughter when we weren't looking?"

"What are you thinking? We raised Gousheng from scratch. If someone replaced him, wouldn't we be able to tell?"

Yes, I was completely overwhelmed by all those gifts.

"I'm a bit confused too. Forget it, don't think about it anymore, I won't understand it anyway. Anyway, if Gousheng dares to accept it, it means there's nothing wrong with him accepting it."

"Ok."

After putting aside the matter of Gousheng, Granny Tian began to worry about Dong Laoqi and Lu Taohua.

Meanwhile, Madam Tang had already arranged for the coachman to wait at the academy gate.

As soon as the college let out for vacation, the driver picked Tang Xiaoliu up and took him home.

Mrs. Tang was delighted to see Tang Xiaoliu. "What would you like to eat? Mother will have the kitchen prepare it for you."

Aunt Liu was very pleased to see Tang Xiaoliu. "It's good that she hasn't become ugly. If she had, she wouldn't have been able to marry a good wife."

Madam Tang's head started to ache again. "What nonsense are you talking about? Xiao Liu is a boy. When a boy gets married, he gets a wife, not a bride."

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue. Madam, I wanted to have a private conversation with you and the Sixth Young Master."

Madam Tang waved her hand helplessly.

After the servants left, Aunt Liu looked at Tang Xiaoliu and asked, "Sixth Young Master, are you able to get in touch with Miss Qian Si?"

Mrs. Tang sat up straight instantly. "What do you want to do?"

Aunt Liu blinked. "I want to find a good wife for Sixth Young Master. Sixth Young Master, Miss Qian is the Emperor's illegitimate daughter, and the Emperor dotes on her. If you can marry Miss Qian, you will definitely live a better life than I do."

Tang Xiaoliu's eyes lit up instantly. "Miss Qian is a princess?!"

Aunt Liu nodded and said, "You must seize this opportunity."

Tang Xiaoliu: "Okay."

Snapped!
Mrs. Tang slammed her hand on the table. "Shut up!"

Aunt Liu trembled in fright. "Madam... Madam, this is such a rare opportunity!"

Tang Xiaoliu: "Yes."

"What is it?" Madam Tang wanted to crack open Aunt Liu and Tang Xiaoliu's heads to see what was going on inside them. "Go to the ancestral hall and kneel down!"

As soon as Vice Minister Tang returned, the steward told him that Madam Tang had sent Aunt Liu and Tang Xiaoliu to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Vice Minister Tang was surprised. "What foolish thing did those two do?"

"I don't know about the younger one."

After thinking for a moment, Vice Minister Tang went to find Madam Tang. Madam Tang glared at him, told him, "Go ask them yourselves," and then chased him out.

Minister Tang: "..." What exactly did that mother and daughter do? Look how angry they made his wife.
