Don't move, this child bride is not easy to mess with.

Xie Chengan expressed his support: "Then let Xiaobai invite you. You are still a child, it is within your ability. We are not picky."

Xiaobai felt relieved. He had more than three taels of silver in his hand. This was really a huge amount of money before.

Later, his eldest sister and mother also gave him pocket money from time to time. After saving, he actually had so much.

This time I didn't go to a big restaurant, but found a small shop in an alley that looked relatively clean.

Although the store is not big and the location is not very good, the craftsmanship is pretty good.

Because they watched the dragon boat race and beat up the king, Su Mulan would earn a large sum of money. It was a happy event for everyone, and everyone was extremely happy.

In the afternoon, Su Mulan took the manuscript to Luming Bookstore again and received a deposit of 1000 taels.

The two parties have agreed that the balance will be paid after the listing is settled.

"We will go back tomorrow."

Xie Chengan knew that parting was close, but he was truly satisfied.

"Why don't I see you off and I'll rent a carriage..."

Su Mulan refused: "Yurou said that the brothers and sisters are going to the ancestral home in the neighboring city. The three of us can just take the carriage by ourselves. Don't worry, I have a lot of money, and I won't make do with others and just rent a carriage. .”

"I always feel that I have not fulfilled my duty as a landlord." Xie Chengan felt a little regretful.

Su Mulan smiled: "There is no need to rush, the days will pass."

She imitated the saying in the play: "The green mountains will not change, and the green water will always flow. Thank you, brother, see you soon."

It made Xie Chengan laugh.

As everyone knows, this scene in front of the bookstore was watched by others.

Su Mulan and her brother returned to the inn, planning to visit the night market and return early the next morning.

As soon as Xie Chengan returned home, he saw Mr. Xie with a sullen face: "Today's dragon boat race, what a great opportunity to show your face in front of the prefect, but you are nowhere to be seen. What on earth have you been busy with all day?"

"Isn't it enough to let Mingzhi show his face?" Xie Chengan didn't care.

Mr. Xie choked, but others didn't know. Didn't the magistrate also know that Mingzhi was a concubine?

No matter what, he would not take Aunt Ru and Xie Mingzhi to show up in front of Shangfeng at this time.

"You traitor! You don't know how to seize such a good opportunity. The prefect also asked scholars to compose poems and rewarded several people. If you are here, you should be seen by the prefect."

Xie Rongxuan was so angry that he could hide and hide every time he had the opportunity to show his face.

"I'm not taking the exam here in Qiu Wei. I have to go back to my hometown to take the exam. Although I, as your son, have the opportunity to be seen by adults, I don't want to be discussed in private. If I win in the future It’s not too late to show your face in front of the prefect.”

Xie Chengan took his time and said the same thing again.

"If you don't know how to seize such a good opportunity, how can you become an official in the future? All you have to do is follow your poor classmates, visit bookstores, and eat at fly restaurants. I don't know what it means!"

Xie Chengan's expression changed: "Father, you actually sent someone to follow me?"

"What's wrong with me sending people to follow you? In case I don't know what you are doing all day long. I don't understand. You are unwilling to have a good relationship with the sons of other colleagues of mine. Instead, you can't stand it with those people at first sight. Poor classmates keep close contact with each other."

The more Xie Rongxuan talked, the angrier he became. If he had had such a good opportunity when he was young, there would be no need to rely on Jiang's money to pave the way.

If he could show his face in front of the prefect when he was young, he might be able to marry the prefect's legitimate daughter...

Xie Chengan felt a cold sweat break out on his back.

If Su Mulan were wearing women's clothing, would her father investigate her?

"The two classmates of yours are bringing their brothers and sisters to have a party with you, the legitimate son of Zhizhou. You must remember that your marriage is decided by me. Especially the brother and sister, the girl is already in her teens. , how do you know that I am not deliberately getting closer to you? You don’t understand this? If you don’t keep some distance..."

Xie Chengan said hurriedly: "You have misunderstood dad. That girl has already been engaged. Their family is just here to see my grandpa."

"Hmph, a teenage girl is actually following her brother to meet her foreign husband."

Xie Rongxuan was still chattering, and Xie Chengan quickly retreated.

Ah Fu followed behind, his head and head weary: "Master, I really haven't seen anyone following us..."

"Who would have thought that my father could do such a thing."

Xie Chengan sighed. He also wanted to go see his siblings off early tomorrow morning.

What Su Mulan didn't expect was that when the three of them went downstairs early in the morning, they saw Xie Chengan.

The shopkeeper yawned and said, "This is our first customer. He has been waiting at the door of the shop since the morning..."

Xie Chengan's face turned slightly red. This shopkeeper talks so much.

Su Mulan shook her head slightly: "When did you come?"

"He came at the beginning of Yinshi."

"Why so early?"

Xie Chengxin said that if he didn't come out early, he might not be able to get out, or he might be followed again.

"Let's have breakfast together again?"

The four of us had a simple meal together.

Xie Chengan handed over a water bag: "I'm afraid you might get thirsty on the road. This is a new water bag."

Su Mulan took it and thanked her.

Naturally, she would not prepare these things herself, just because what she wanted to take, she could just take them out from the space.

Today, Su Mulan still dresses as a man, and she finds it more and more convenient.

If you take two little ones outside, you won't attract others to covet you or rob you.

After renting the carriage, Su Mulan waved her hand: "Go back. I'm really tired. I must have been tired all morning. Don't be so stupid in the future."

Xie Chengan giggled and waved.

Watching the carriage slowly drive away, he turned around and went home.

Going back through the back door, no one noticed anything strange, except Ah Fu who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"What are you afraid of? Clean up, I'm going to the academy."

"Master, are you in such a good mood?"

Xie Chengan was stunned and lowered the raised corners of his mouth.

He was in a really good mood. This was simply the best holiday he had had in more than ten years.

It seems very complete.

It was not until dark that Su Mulan and the other three returned to the county seat.

As soon as she got home, Su Mulan took a shower and tidied up.

Xi'er quickly called Mrs. Yu over and presented the various foods she bought. Mrs. Yu narrowed her eyes with a smile.

After eating something, Mrs. Yu talked about the time when the shopkeeper of the Zhou family came to give gifts.

"Mulan, according to your instructions, I will not accept their gifts. As you said, it is indeed a heavy gift. But, can you ask me why I refused to accept his gift?"

Seeing Yu's cautious tone, Su Mulan sighed secretly.

"He wants to marry me as his wife, and what he said is not pleasant, so I have already refused. Besides, although his shop is considered good in the county, it is only average compared to the ones in Fucheng. This time, I have found him in Fucheng New bookstore cooperation.”
