After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 396: Not Even a Candy



Chapter 396: Not Even a Candy

The group entered the palace amid the noise of the people. After paying their respects to the emperor, the seventh prince and Princess Huizhu were sent to the temporary palace to stay.

In addition, some of their followers and several Northern Di officials who were in charge of the peace negotiations also moved in with them.

Xu Jinren never came out after entering the palace. The people in Prince Ning's mansion waited until late at night before a palace servant came to the door and said that the emperor had asked someone to talk with him by candlelight at night, so that everyone in the mansion did not need to worry.

The Xu Yunzhe brothers came back very early and were surrounded by several women in the house, who asked them about what happened outside.

When Yuxiu followed her parents there, the entire Prince Ning's Mansion was decorated with lights and was very lively.

"Qinghe, you guys are here, come and sit down."

Seeing them come in, the old princess waved to them with a smile, then turned to the Xu Yunzhe brothers and said:

"This is your real Third Uncle's family, come and greet them quickly..."

As soon as Xu Qinghe and the other two entered the room, Xu Yunzhe and his brother looked over.

I have to say that this newly recognized third uncle really looks similar to my father and second uncle.

In fact, it is only after Xu Qinghe absorbed the inheritance of the great scholar that his whole demeanor has slowly changed. Otherwise, he would have been even more similar to him in the past.

"My nephew has met Uncle Three, Aunt Three, and Sister Yuxiu."

Xu Yunzhe and Xu Yunli no longer hesitated and stepped forward to greet Xu Qinghe's family respectfully.

"Okay, everyone, get up. No need to be so polite."

Facing these two nephews, Xu Qinghe and Cui were both very happy.

However, I came in such a hurry that I didn't bring any gift, so I said I would make it up to them next time.

The two brothers are already very familiar with Yuxiu. Although the three of them have not been separated for a long time, it is already a long time for the two brothers.

So when they met again this time, they were quite enthusiastic.

Although they did not completely wipe out the Northern Di this time, the Yuan people had occupied many important positions and also snatched a lot of spoils from those leaders.

The two brothers brought back several large boxes filled with rare treasures.

Now that Yuxiu's family had arrived, Xu Yunzhe had someone bring up a large black box, saying it was a gift for Yuxiu and asking her to take it back when she left.

"Oh my, now that the two brothers have a new sister, they have forgotten about me, the old sister..."

Xu Lewan pouted and said jokingly:

"I ran to the gate eagerly to greet her, but in the end I didn't even get a piece of candy. Now, look what's wrong. When Sister Yuxiu comes, you guys even give her a box away..."

As soon as she said this, everyone laughed.

Yuxiu felt a little embarrassed and didn't want to make others feel uncomfortable because of such a small matter, so she thought about giving some of her share.

"How can I use all of these? Sister Wan'er, just take whatever you like..."

Seeing that she took it seriously, Xu Lewan quickly waved her hand and said:

"Sister, I was just kidding you. Although my father didn't come back this time, he did send back a lot of things, including some for you, my sister."

Thinking that the adults were talking here, and that they, the younger generation, had nothing to do here, she took Yuxiu and talked to the elders in the house, and then took Yuxiu to her yard.

"These boxes were sent back by my father. We three sisters will each have a share. You can choose whatever you like."

Xu Lewan pointed to the boxes in the room and said to Yuxiu. The three sisters she was talking about were of course her sisters Xu Leyao and Yuxiu.

There were still seals on the boxes. Xu Lewan opened one at random and found that it was full of shiny jade and jewelry. Both the style and quality did not seem to be something that ordinary people could afford.

"These are all obtained by my second uncle with great difficulty. How can I be embarrassed to ..."

Yuxiu didn't expect that she would gain so much from this trip today, so she quickly declined.

"Besides, these things look too expensive. I'm just a little girl, and even if I take them, I have no occasion to use them."

"Of course you can use it. You will be graduating soon."

Xu Lewan didn't let Yuxiu refuse. She went to find an exquisite little lock, locked the box that had just been opened, and handed the key to Yuxiu.

"With a family like ours, your future marriage will not be bad, and you will need to move around a lot. By then, you won't be dissatisfied with having too many jewels..."

Yuxiu was still a little girl after all, and she didn't explain it as clearly as she said.

In Xu Lewan's opinion, Yuxiu was already beautiful, and her parents were both of high status, so it was only a matter of time for her to marry into a wealthy family.

By the time Yuxiu reaches adulthood, the doors of her uncle and aunt's houses will probably be broken down by matchmakers.

Hearing this, Yuxiu was a little amused.

As I stroked the keys in my hand, I felt a wave of warmth in my heart.

These families nowadays are really nice.

No matter what we do, everyone interacts with each other and cares about each other.

It was not like before in Xujia Village, when everyone regarded the second branch of the family as the biggest enemy in the world and wished that their whole family could be like the oxen working in the fields all day long.

All you need to do is throw in a few handfuls of hay and you can work tirelessly.

In the evening, the family failed to wait for Xu Jinren to return home. After having dinner at Prince Ning's Mansion, they returned to their own homes.

There was no way. Although the old princess wanted to keep them for one night, she couldn't say it when she thought of her two hungry grandchildren at home.

So the family came empty-handed, not only got a free meal, but also took away two large boxes when they left.

Now that they have such relatives, they are very happy even without these gifts.

It is true that Yuxiu and the others were happy, but some people were not happy.

No one knew that when Yuxiu's family's carriage left Prince Ning's Mansion, Xu Jinran's family, who were hiding in the corner, were almost going crazy.

"It's all because of these people. If they hadn't come back to cause trouble, we wouldn't be hiding here like rats in the gutter. Instead, we could sit at home and count our gold, silver and jewels..."

Xu Jinran gritted his teeth, and kept a vicious look on the carriage that was going away. He wanted to see through the carriage and see clearly what good things were inside.

They saw clearly from here when the two large boxes were carried out of the yard and put into the carriage.

These things should have originally belonged to them, but now they were snatched away by that inexplicable family. How could they not be upset?
