After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 496 Free Trading Zone

Xia Wanniang closed the book and said, "My husband, what is the situation outside the Great Wall now?"

"After you provided them with food and water, their situation has improved a lot. However, these powerful people have raised the prices of food and water again." Xiao Chiye put down his tea and handed Xia Wanniang a glass of boiled water.

Xia Wanniang had already guessed that the people who suffered were the lower class people: "Sir Wei, open a free trade zone outside the West City. This area does not need to be reviewed, and the people of the two countries can trade freely."

Wei Zhen understood what she meant: "The princess is kind."

Xiao Chiye raised the corners of his lips slightly: "I'm afraid Brother Ke will be unhappy again."

Xia Wanniang smiled. This indeed added pressure to the soldiers on guard. "Then please ask my husband to treat him to a meal of wine. If one meal is not enough, then two meals. If two meals are not enough, then three meals."

Xiao Chiye's eyes were full of smiles: "Then I think he will be happy."

Wei Zhen looked at the two men with smiles in their eyes. These two people really care about the people!

Xiao Chiye looked at Wei Zhen: "Sir Wei, North City is a key city, it is very hard."

Wei Zhen smiled and shook his head: "I thought it would be very hard, but I didn't expect to be able to live in the new city and have such a big government office as soon as I arrived. I don't think it's hard at all."

Xia Wanniang picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, then chatted with Wei Zhen about some things they needed.

Shopkeeper Hong and Shopkeeper Chang are also setting up their pharmacy and restaurant, and they should be open for business soon.

North City is becoming more and more lively day by day. Grandma Huang and her family are about to come back, so Xia Wanniang and her family chose a day and moved to North City.

Several children would go to North City every day and tell Rou Xingyue what happened.

Now, apart from exercise and schoolwork every day, they spend most of the rest of their time playing with Rou Xingyue.

The little guy is different every day and becomes more and more adorable.

Xia Wanniang also liked this little girl very much. Every day, she would whimper for a while when she was hungry or had a bowel movement, but would behave herself well as long as she was full and had changed into clean clothes.

Princess Ling'an also arrived at the North City Post Station.

Xu Li was extremely anxious. He paced back and forth in the room, not quite knowing what to do.

Xia Wanniang was a little dizzy from his shaking: "Master Xu, can you please sit down? You're making me dizzy."

Xu Li turned to look at her: "Do you know that I am nervous?"

"I see." Xia Wanniang turned to look at Qiu He: "Qiu He, go get Mr. Xu's wedding dress and let him try it on to see if there's anything that needs to be altered."

"Yes." Qiu He smiled and went to get the clothes.

Xia Wanniang turned to look at Zhu Yao: "Are my mother and her family in the Xu residence next door?"

Zhu Yao nodded: "Decoration... for the new house."

Xia Wanniang looked at Yifeng and asked, "Has Princess Yifeng Ling'an's dowry been delivered?"

"It has been delivered. Madam Xiao is already arranging people to put it in." Yifeng looked at his own grandfather. He was about to get married, so why was he still so impatient?

Qiuhe brought the wedding dress and her father gave it to Yifeng, indicating that he should take their grandfather to change into it.

Xiao Chiye walked in from outside: "Ali, why are you still here?"

Xu Li glanced at him and said, "If I'm not here, where am I?"

Xiao Chiye looked at him with disdain: "Why don't you go back to the mansion to check on the arrangements?"

Xu Li: "With Aunt Xiao here, I don't have to worry." Then he took Yifeng to change clothes.

When he changed his clothes and came out, he felt something was wrong. He was pulling here and there, as if he had fleas on his body.

Qiu He walked over to him and adjusted his clothes. She checked and found that they fit him well and did not need any alterations.

Xia Wanniang looked at him twisting and turning, "My husband, take him out to find Qingfeng. It's really an eyesore. I don't know what he's doing when he's getting married tomorrow."

Xiao Chiye also looked at him with disdain, walked over to him and put his arm around his shoulders: "Let's go! Master Xu, let's go talk."

Xu Li looked at Xiao Chiye: "Aren't you in a hurry to get married?"

When Xiao Chiye heard this, he felt uncomfortable again: "I still owe Wanwan a wedding."

Xu Li looked puzzled: "What do you mean?"
