I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

"I don't need to carry so much silver, do I?" He said this without taking his eyes off the banknotes.

Zhishu opened another account book and glanced at the details registered on it. "Miss, since you took a break before the New Year, I roughly calculated that the incense you have made until now can last about three to four months.

I've calculated the price too. Don't worry. The mansion doesn't need that much money.

There is no problem with giving the silver to the eldest master every month, so just take it with you girls.

If the imperial court is short of food and grass, it can be used as a temporary emergency measure, just like when the girl was dealing with floods in the south. "

What Zhishu said makes sense. The mansion is not short of money now.

Even if she hasn't come back after three or four months, she still has the income from the shop and her brother's salary. The money she earned from making incense in the past few months can last her two to three years.

At that time, Jiang's mansion was confiscated, and the money and shops in the mansion were used to fill the holes caused by Jiangzhou's corruption and squandering. There were still two small shops and a farm left.

The emperor asked Prince Anyang to sell all these and exchanged them for two shops in good locations, which he gave to Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan asked Aunt Juan if she wanted to open an embroidery shop of her own, but Aunt Juan refused. She still preferred to stay in the back house, embroider some handkerchiefs in her spare time, and be with her daughter all day.

Jiang Yuan did not force it. He rented out the two shops, plus the one the emperor had rewarded him with, a total of three shops.

They are all shops in good locations with generous rents, and they are all managed by Zhishu and Chunzhi.

Jiang Yuan rode on a tall horse, wearing silver armor, looking heroic. He followed Qu Hou on both sides and walked out of the city under the gaze of everyone.

Standing on the second floor of Tianxiang Tower, Qu Ying and the eldest princess were by the window, watching the people walking slowly below. In the next room were Qin Mowei and An Chen.

"Let's go back home." The team disappeared on the street and the eldest princess sighed.

Qu Ying said, "Mother, I won't go back with you. I'm going to bring food to Shu He."

"Okay, come back early."

After the princess left, Qu Ying called the waiter and ordered a few dishes.

Turning back, he saw Qin Mowei, "Third cousin."

"Do you know about Jiang Yuan and Xie Yunxiao?" Qin Mowei asked.

Qu Ying nodded, "Yes, I know."

An Chen was curious and had wanted to ask for a long time, "Engaged? Why didn't Xie Yunxiao just ask the emperor to grant the marriage?"

"There is no engagement, but the two of them are just confiding their feelings to each other, which can be regarded as cultivating feelings."

Qu Ying didn't know how to explain to the two people in front of her what it meant to be in love.

Looking at Qin Mo's lonely expression, Qu Ying understood.

"My third cousin was in the hall, opposing A Yuan's going to the war?" Qu Ying asked.

Qin Mo lowered his head and agreed.

Qu Ying smiled and looked towards the bustling first floor, "Actually, before this happened, I thought my third cousin was better than Xie Yunxiao.

But now, I don’t think so anymore. Xie Yunxiao is still more suitable for A Yuan. "

"Why?" This question was not asked by Qin Mowei, but by An Chen.

In his eyes, there is no man in the capital city better than the Prince of Anyang. In terms of family background and talent, Xie Yunxiao can never compare to him.

"Lord An also believes that since Xie Yunxiao and A Yuan were in love with each other, they should have directly asked the emperor to grant them a marriage?"

An Chen nodded dazedly, "Yes."

"I asked, and Fourth Brother Xie said that because he did not seek A Yuan's consent, he could not ask for permission to marry.

Even though I knew in my heart that A Yuan would definitely agree, I still had to ask her opinion first.

A Yuan said, this is called respect. "

The two people in front of me had the same doubts, the same confusion, and more importantly, they couldn't understand.

They couldn't understand why the woman's consent was needed for this matter. She should have agreed in the first place, right? The wife is the head of the husband, and this has been the case since ancient times.

"Third cousin, if A Yuan marries you, will you still agree to her becoming a female general?"

Before Qin Mowei could answer, Qu Ying answered for him, "You wouldn't, when you two didn't even have a relationship, you would stop her from going to the battlefield without authorization.

If she really becomes the Crown Prince's Consort, not only will you not agree to let her go to the battlefield, you won't even ask her about it, you will just dismiss all her duties and let her be your Crown Prince's Consort with peace of mind."

Glancing over the faces of the two people in front of him, Qu Ying smiled and shook his head, "Ah Yuan is an eagle soaring in the sky, you like her uniqueness, but you want to break her wings and imprison her in the backyard.

Third cousin, if you can't learn to respect her, there is no chance for you to be with her in this life."

The waiter came upstairs with a food box in his hand, "Miss Qu, the food is ready."

"Third cousin, Lord An, Qu Ying left first."

Qu Ying went downstairs and left Tianxiang Tower to find Shu He.

Qin Mowei and An Chen were left standing on the second floor. They were wondering what Qu Ying had just said and why they found it so unbelievable and unorthodox.

Jiang Yuan originally wanted to take on the task of being the advance officer and lead his men ahead, but was stopped by Qu Hou.

Qu Hou and Xie Yunxiao, with three thousand men on horseback, went ahead, while Jiang Yuan and Qu Jin, with a large army, followed behind.

Military orders are as heavy as mountains, and Jiang Yuan could only nod and agree.

Her aunt had prepared so much food for her, and gave it all to the three thousand elite soldiers and Xie Yunxiao, leaving her only a little.

Qu Jin was experienced and arranged everything along the way in an orderly manner.

It is impossible to bring all the food, drinks and camping equipment for an army of 20,000 along the way. Qu Jin had already made arrangements and marked the location of the next camping stop on the map. Five hundred people went ahead to buy dry food and gather at the camping site.

Jiang Yuan didn’t understand. It was his first time to go on an expedition with the army. He followed Qu Jin as his assistant and also learned.

The army arrived at the eastern border a week earlier than expected due to weather reasons. There were two snowfalls, but neither was heavy and did not delay the journey.

There were no strong winds or rain, and no heavy snow to block the mountain, so everything went smoothly.

When the two of them arrived at the eastern border town of Yancheng with an army of 20,000, Xie Yunxiao greeted them outside Yancheng.

Seeing him from afar, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but frown. It had only been half a month since they last saw each other, and he had already lost a lot of weight.

Xie Yunxiao dismounted and ran towards Jiang Yuan, baring his signature big white teeth with a bright and sunny smile.
