"Except for Mrs. Xu's stay, all others should be returned."

Afterwards, Dong Baoshan took the post and left.

Aunt Qiu said from the side: "County Lord, you also need to learn social etiquette. You should accept the post and learn how to interact with these official ladies."

Chen Xi glanced at Aunt Qiu: "Didn't I leave a message from Mrs. Xu? When Mrs. Xu comes later, you can teach me."

Aunt Qiu knows that Mrs. Xu is the wife of the magistrate, and she also knows that Magistrate Xu helped Chen Xi a lot yesterday, so this Mrs. Xu should be regarded as someone who is relatively close to Chen Xi.

If Chen Xi is taught in front of people close to her, even if Chen Xi makes a fool of herself, Mrs. Xu will definitely not laugh at her or reveal her secrets.

But when Aunt Qiu went south this time, in addition to being ordered by the Emperor and Queen, she was also dragged by people to find ways to make Chen Xi suffer and embarrass herself!

The best thing is that it is reported that the commoner county head whom the emperor has conferred cannot reach the palace of elegance. No matter how she is taught, she is a vulgar peasant woman, which makes the emperor disgusted with her, even disgusted!

Although the person who asked her to do things was her old master, she had already guessed that the person who found her old master must be the Zhongyong Hou Mansion!

Aunt Qiu also believed that Chen Xi was able to obtain the title of County Lord entirely because Lin Changqing, the prince of Zhongyong Hou, worked through it.

Although Lin Changqing, the prince of Zhongyong Hou, is not in the capital, there is always a legend about him in the capital!

Others are enjoying glory and wealth under the protection of their families, but Lin Changqing, the eldest son of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, joined the army at a young age. Not only did he not return to the capital after enduring hardships, but he also made outstanding military exploits, which the emperor often mentioned.

He was full of praise!

People in the capital expressed their envy to Marquis Zhongyong in person, but secretly they were saying that Marquis Zhongyong's mansion mistakenly took fish eyes for pearls, and the real pearls were abandoned!

Everyone knows that Mrs. Zhongyonghou is the step-mother. Likewise, Mrs. Zhongyonghou has been giving Marquis Zhongyong no favors and did not invite the crown prince. She hopes to wait until Lin Changqing has an "in case", so that her biological son can be He was named Crown Prince so that he could inherit the title of Marquis Zhongyong in the future.

It's a pity that in the end, even the emperor couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to give Lin Changqing the title, which made Mrs. Zhongyong Houji's plan come to nothing. Now everyone is waiting for Lin Changqing to see the joke of Zhongyong Houfu after Lin Changqing returns to the capital!

Although Aunt Qiu obeyed the orders of her old master, she had to do what the Emperor and Queen told her, so she planned to make Chen Xi embarrassed in front of everyone before pointing out her mistakes.

A commoner has been named the head of the county. Whether it is the capital or Hangzhou, everyone must be paying attention to Chen Xi's every move, so at this time, whatever she does will be magnified!

I thought that once this businesswoman's status suddenly rose, she would be able to show off, and then she would be able to admonish in front of others.

Unexpectedly, she actually refused, causing her plan to fail!

To be honest, Aunt Qiu no longer sees Chen Xi as clearly as she did at first. It seems that she still has some sense.

If there was no order from the old master, if Chen Xi had treated her with more respect at the beginning, and if Lin Changqing was not so arrogant, Aunt Qiu might have spared her some respect.

But now, Aunt Qiu decided to teach Chen Xi a lesson, let her understand her little cleverness and Lin Changqing's protection of her.

, it makes no sense at all!

Lin Changqing wanted to accompany Eunuch Yang around Hangzhou, so Chen Xi had dinner with Mrs. Xu at noon.

Mrs. Xu came alone today. If Xu Lanying had not offended Chen Xi, she would have brought Xu Lanying with her today. Because Xu Lanying and Chen Xi were similar in age, and Chen Xi had previously offered advice to the prefect Xu, the prefect Xu invited Chen Xi. If successful, the Xu family will have a closer relationship with Chen Xi and even Lin Changqing!

But all of this was ruined at the hands of his own daughter!

When Mrs. Xu mentioned this, she felt sulky in her heart, but now that the matter was over, there was no point in worrying about it. Fortunately, she saw Chen Xi's attitude towards her today and knew that Chen Xi didn't care about her daughter, which made her feel relieved. tone.

"Madam, I will leave Hangzhou in a while. I must first go back to Qingshui County to worship my ancestors, and then I will go to Beijing to express my gratitude. I may not be in Hangzhou for a long time. Chen Ji wants to ask Mrs. Xu to take care of me. Of course I won't It will make my wife tired in vain, I will give my wife [-]% of the profit from Chenji Sanzhong Building!"

Mrs. Xu was startled and said hurriedly: "The county master does not need to do this. Chen Ji's business is very stable. I don't need to worry about it. How dare I take the county master's profit share."

Chen Xi took the initiative to hold Mrs. Xu's hand and patted her hand gently, "Madam, please don't be polite to me!" Then he looked to the side and motioned to the side, and Mrs. Xu immediately understood.

In fact, she was very surprised to see a cold-faced nanny standing in the room when she came over. Then Chen Xi introduced that this was a nun from the capital who taught palace rules and etiquette. Mrs. Xu also hurriedly saluted.

Who knew that grandma was alive?

He stood still and accepted the gift from her, still without a smile on his face.

Mrs. Xu is also a human being, and she immediately understood that the relationship between this nanny from the capital and Chen Xi was not so compatible.

During the subsequent meal, this nanny stood nearby as if she were a decoration, but both Chen Xi and Mrs. Xu knew that Aunt Qiu had been watching Chen Xi's every move.

Chen Xi wants to give Mrs. Xu two levels of profits. One is because she will probably be away from Hangzhou for a while and really needs Mrs. Xu to help take care of Chen Ji.

But more importantly, Chen Xi understood that in order to obtain the title of County Lord, it was crucial for her to speak kindly to Magistrate Xu on her behalf in the book.

It's just that this cannot be said clearly, but Chen Xi understands that Mrs. Xu already understands.

Chen Xi and Mrs. Xu had a very happy meal, and they left Hangzhou immediately. They had explained everything they had to explain and done everything they had to do.

It was not until the end of the meal that Aunt Qiu finally stopped being a decoration and said in a cold voice: "County Lord, as the County Lord, you do not need to send Mrs. Xu away personally."

Mrs. Xu quickly refused, but Chen Xi thought: "Mother Qiu, although my identity does not require me to send Mrs. Xu away, I am on good terms with Mrs. Xu. I sent her to show my closeness. Is there any problem? "

"No problem, but as the teacher, I still have to say what I should say."

"Oh, I see."

Chen Xi ignored Nanny Qiu and kept sending Mrs. Xu out of the door.

Chen Xi looked at Mrs. Xu's excited expression and knew that Mrs. Xu was very happy to do this to save Mrs. Xu's face.

After all, the emperor’s new title of County Princess of Huaishan only accepted Mrs. Xu’s invitation and even walked her out of the gate in person.

, enough for Mrs. Xu to gain face in front of the wives of officials in Hangzhou!

In the evening, Lin Changqing came back alone.

Chen Xi saw that he didn't even plan to change his clothes, so he knew he was leaving.

The sadness of parting suddenly spread.
