How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 251 You'll have nowhere to cry then
His wife is quite good at calculating. "Your eldest sister and brother-in-law, as well as your eldest brother and sister-in-law, are not from the same world."

“My eldest sister and her husband have a child, and my sister-in-law’s situation is special.”

Xi Huaizhou reached out and took Xia Hua's hand. "We can have children too."

Xia Hua's face flushed again. "You...you want to live with me?"

Xi Huaizhou nodded. "I'm a man, I can't break my promise... I can't go back on my word."

Xia Hua was quite pleased to hear that. "Were you just trying to say that you went back on your word?"

"Hmm. Do you know what it means to go back on your word?"

“I know. I was educated before. After we got engaged, I studied even harder. But I still can’t compare to other young ladies from well-to-do families.”

Xi Huaizhou felt that Xia Hua valued him quite a bit. "Other young ladies from prominent families aren't as carefree as you."

“They probably have reservations. My family treats girls very well. Even if I divorce my grandparents, my parents, my uncles and aunts, they won’t think I’m shameful or abandon me.”

"You're lucky."

"Mmm." Xia Hua yawned. "Go to sleep."

"Okay." Xi Huaizhou picked Xia Hua up.

Xia Hua yawned again. "Don't you want to think about it some more?"

"No need. I said I'm a man. A man has to keep his promises."

"Okay. Then hurry up, I chatted with Gousheng for more than two hours last night."

Xi Huaizhou wanted to ask, "How can you make a man hurry up?" but he was also afraid of causing complications like before. "Okay."

Fifteen minutes later, she said, "Hurry up, I want to sleep."

"it is good."

Another fifteen minutes passed. "Hurry up."

"it is good."

……

An hour later, "You liar!"

Xi Huaizhou ruffled Xia Hua's hair. "This concerns a man's dignity; I cannot listen to my wife."

Xia Hua wanted to kick Xi Huaizhou, but she was too sleepy. She said, "I'll settle the score with you tomorrow," and then fell asleep.

Xi Huaizhou pulled Xia Hua into his arms. His wife was better than he had expected. Although she wasn't from a wealthy family, she was more insightful than many.

The next day, the Qian family breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xi Huaizhou and Xia Hua being affectionate like any other young couple.

In the afternoon, Gou Sheng was sunbathing in the yard. Xi Huaizhou walked over. "Sunbathing?"

“Yes.” Gou Sheng smiled at Xi Huaizhou.

Xi Huaizhou pulled up a chair and sat down next to Gou Sheng. "My marriage to your second sister was arranged by the Emperor."

Gou Sheng glanced at Xi Huaizhou. "Then I have a way to get you two divorced. You'd better treat my second sister well. Otherwise... hmph!"

"Okay. What am I going to do if you're so fierce?"

Gou Sheng smiled. "Congratulations."

"Thanks. Don't try to persuade your second sister to get a divorce again."

"That depends on your performance."

Xi Huaizhou gritted his teeth. "You little rascal."

Gousheng made a face at him.

Xi Huaizhou chatted with Gou Sheng for a while longer before leaving. Xi Huaizhou decided to have a child with Xia Hua as soon as possible. With a child, that little rascal wouldn't encourage his wife to divorce him.

After Xi Huaizhou left, Gou Sheng thought that once her uncle became emperor, she would build a harem.

Gou Sheng became happier the more he thought about it.

As soon as Qian Chunhua came in, she saw her little cousin smiling like a flower. "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Gou Sheng said, wiping his mouth. "Sit down."

“Okay.” Qian Chunhua sat down next to Gou Sheng. “My mother-in-law wants me to go and take care of Yuanyuan’s father.”

"You don't want to go?"

"I want to." "Then why aren't you happy?"

"I can't bear to part with Shijiu and Yuanyuan."

Gou Sheng understood. "If you can't bear to part with Shijiu and Yuanyuan, then let your brother-in-law take a concubine."

Snapped!
Qian Chunhua slapped Gou Sheng. "You naughty girl."

"Hehe..." Gou Sheng pounced on Qian Chunhua's chest across the chair. "If you don't go, they'll have to find a concubine for your brother-in-law."

Qian Chunhua knew this too. "It would be great if we could bring Shijiu and Yuanyuan along."

"Nineteen and Yuanyuan must stay in the capital to learn."

“I know, I… I can’t be too greedy.”

Gou Sheng nuzzled Qian Chunhua's neck. "Yeah, you can't have your cake and eat it too."

Qian Chunhua patted Gou Sheng's head. "It would be nice if he didn't grow up."

"If you don't grow up, you won't be able to marry your brother-in-law. Don't you miss your brother-in-law at all? He's handsome and capable."

"I definitely want to. It's just that it's ranked after Nineteen and Yuanyuan."

"My brother-in-law is so pitiful."

Qian Chunhua pinched Gou Sheng's nose. "You'll be like this when you have children. Why don't you help your older sister take care of Yuan Yuan, okay?"

"Okay. If your health allows, you can give Yuanyuan a younger brother." Since she didn't want her husband to take a concubine, she had to put in the effort.

"Ah."

Chunhua chatted with Gousheng for a while longer before going to find Granny Tian and the others.

Granny Tian and the others were both happy and reluctant to see Chunhua go to find Jiang Ruiheng.

On the other side, as soon as Tang Xiaoliu got home, he shouted loudly, "Mother! Mother! Your son is back!"

Mrs. Tang couldn't help but smile. "This child, how old is he and still so loud and boisterous."

Tang Xiaoliu rushed in as soon as she finished speaking. "Mother, did you miss me?"

Mrs. Tang looked at Tang Xiaoliu and smiled, "No, it's so peaceful at home without you."

“Mother, that’s not peace and quiet, that’s desolation. Mother, I have good news.”

"What good news?"

Tang Xiaoliu glanced at the servants in the room. Madam Tang waved her hand. After the servants left, Madam Tang looked at Tang Xiaoliu and smiled, "Now you can speak, right?"

"That's fine." Tang Xiaoliu straightened his clothes. "Miss Qian has agreed to marry me."

"What?!" Madam Tang could hardly believe her ears. "How could Miss Qian Si have taken a liking to you?"

"Because I'm well-behaved and good-looking."

Madam Tang: "..." Is Miss Qian so shallow? "Did Miss Qian tell you to go and propose marriage?"

"No."

Just as Madam Tang was about to say, "She must be teasing you," she heard Tang Xiaoliu say, "She said if I still want to marry her when I turn eighteen, I should go find her. I wish I could jump to eighteen right now."

"Is it because they're too embarrassed to refuse you that they say they'll talk about it when you're eighteen?"

"No. She's serious."

"how do you know?"

"Because she made a request of me."

Madam Tang was secretly delighted. "Did she want you to pass the imperial examination with top honors?"

"No. She asked me to stay by her side, and I agreed."

For a moment, Mrs. Tang was unsure whether this request was too high or too low.

Tang Xiaoliu, seeing that Madam Tang remained silent, assumed she was overjoyed. "Mother, wasn't I amazing?"

He had barely finished speaking when Vice Minister Tang pushed open the door and walked in. "What are you two whispering about?"

Tang Xiaoliu looked at Tang Shilang smugly and said, "My mother and I are talking about my marriage. I asked Miss Qian Si, and she said that I don't need to take the imperial examination to become a scholar, she only needs me to be virtuous and clean-living."

Minister Tang: "..." This request is too difficult! "You should just give up. If you have an affair with another woman, Miss Qian might castrate you. You'll have nowhere to cry then."

*Facepalm* Thank you so much for correcting my mistake, darling! You worked so hard! Wishing you all the best! Sending you love! (з(c)(*з)(ε｀*) *kiss*
