The Doctor's Concubine: Kick the Scumbag King and I Want to Be a Dandy Girl in the Capital

Xiu Luoran suddenly thought of a question:

"Brother, your leg is healed. Your sister-in-law must know about it. Has your sister-in-law told her family?"

Xiu Lingce shook his head: "I have told your sister-in-law that she cannot tell anyone yet, including her parents and siblings.

Although this is my private matter, based on the current situation and my position, the fewer people who know about it, the safer I will be, and the greater my chances of winning if I encounter danger in the future.

Your sister-in-law is from the royal family, so she understands all this."

"That's good. Brother, does the Third Prince know?"

Xiu Lingce smiled: "Maybe he knows, maybe he doesn't.

He asked me, and I gave a half-hearted answer. It was enough for him to know that I was loyal. "

The doorman came in and said, "Miss, Master Yuan wants to see you."

Xiu Luoran stood up and said, "Brother, it's probably about building a house, I'll go then."

Xiu Lingce nodded.

Although my sister acted on her own will in building the house, if it goes well it will benefit the Third Prince and my sister as well.

Why does this girl have so many ideas?

Xiu Luoran went straight to the gate to see Yuan Ling:

"Master Yuan, but the money is not enough?"

Yuan Ling smiled and said, "Miss Xiu, the money can still sustain for a while, but I have encountered a small problem. Mr. Zhou and I have different opinions. I would like to ask Miss Xiu for help to make a decision."

"Then let's go and find Master Zhou."

Yuan Ling took Xiu Luoran to the house construction site, where Jingzhao Yin Zhou Mi Da was also there.

On the way, Yuan Ling and Xiu Luoran talked about the difficulties he and Zhou Mida encountered.

They had been building the house smoothly, but today, when they arrived at Yan's house, the Yan family asked to build a brick and tile house.

Yuan Ling naturally refused to do it.

Because so many houses have been built, they have always been mud and thatched houses, no brick and tile houses, let alone seven large houses.

Zhou Mi Da said that among all the families who wanted to build a house, the Yan family was the only one that had a brick and tile house, so even if they built a house, it would not cost much.

Besides, the old man of the Yan family is very difficult to deal with. If you don’t build a brick house for their family, he probably won’t let it go.

Zhou Mida agreed to the Yan family's request and wanted to build a brick house for their family, but Yuan Ling disagreed.

Hearing this, Xiu Luoran laughed out of anger. She wanted to see how the Yan family would refuse to "let it go".

After turning a corner, you will arrive at the street where the Yan family lives.

As soon as Xiu Luoran stepped onto the street, he saw Zhou Mi Da talking to an old man at the other end of the street.

Seeing someone coming, the two quickly separated.

If Xiu Luoran was an ordinary person, at this distance he would probably only see a group of people standing there.

But Xiu Luoran is not an ordinary person. Her eyesight and hearing are excellent.

Not only did she see Zhou Mida's panic, she also saw the old man's smile that he didn't have time to retract.

It seems that they had a pleasant chat just now.

Xiu Luoran and Yuan Ling walked towards the group of people. When Zhou Mida saw that it was Xiu Luoran who came, he went to meet him.

Xiu Luoran nodded to Zhou Mida and asked the group of people:

“Who wants to build a brick house?”

The old man who had just spoken to Zhou Mida came over:

"It's my home."

Xiu Luoran asked again: "Where is your home?"

The old man pointed to a row of houses behind him:

“That’s my home.”

Xiu Luoran looked at the dilapidated courtyard, the collapsed wall, and the row of incomplete brick houses in the courtyard.

Xiu Luoran turned around and looked at the old man, who was wearing a robe that was half as short and had several patches on it.

Xiu Luoran asked him, "Other people build mud and thatched houses, why do you want to build a brick house?"

“That’s because other people’s original houses were mud and thatched houses, so if they were to rebuild, they could only build mud and thatched houses.

My house used to be a brick and tile house, so we have to build a brick and tile house if we want to rebuild it.”

"We have to build seven rooms, right?"

"Of course. Didn't the official say that we should build a house the same size as the original one?"

"You mean, your house used to be a palace, so I have to build you another palace?"

The old man was frightened by Xiu Luoran's words:

"No, no, no, miss, you can't say that. This is extremely treasonous."

"Old man, what if I don't build you a brick house?"

"Then you guys are not keeping your word. I remember exactly what the officials said.

For those of us whose houses collapsed, we originally had several houses, so we built new ones.

Build a house that is the same as the original one.

Our house is a brick house with seven rooms. "

"Old man, do you know who paid for your house?"

"I know, it's Miss Xiu. You are Miss Xiu, right?"

Xiu Luoran smiled: "Yes, I am Miss Xiu. Let me ask you again, you don't want the mud and thatched house?"

The old man said without hesitation:

"No."

Xiu Luoran shouted, "Master Yuan, Master Zhou, did you hear that?

Since the old man doesn't want a mud and thatched house, there's no need to build his house. After we finish building the house over here, we can go past his house and build the house over there.

Don't ask me to come for such trivial matters in the future. It will waste my time."

Xiu Luoran finished speaking and walked away.

Yuan Ling hurriedly said to the craftsman who was building the house:

"Just build it as Miss Xiu said."

When the old man saw Xiu Luoran had really left, he became anxious and hurried to Xiu Luoran and stopped him:

"Hey, Miss Xiu, why are you leaving?"

Xiu Luoran's face immediately darkened:

"Why are you stopping me?"

"You have to ask them to build a house for my family."

"Don't you want it?"

"I'll take it if you build a brick house."

Xiu Luoran didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he walked around him and walked away.

The old man yelled, "Hey, stop!"

Will Xiu Luoran care about him?

At this time, Zhou Mida stopped Xiu Luoran:

"Miss Xiu, you see, once the houses on this street and the street behind are built and repaired, our project will be completed.

If I abandon the Yan family, wouldn't that be a bit of a pity?"

Xiu Luoran said nonchalantly:

"It's just a flaw in the ointment."

"Miss Xiu, you've already paid so much money, so this little bit won't make a difference.

If the higher-ups knew about this, wouldn't it be bad if this family was the only one in the entire capital city still living in a shabby house?

Then, Miss Xiu, isn't all your effort in building the house in vain?"

Xiu Luoran was stunned: "What am I thinking?"

Zhou Mida smiled: "Miss Xiu spent money and effort, isn't it just to gain a good reputation?

I have already done the thirty-six prostrations, what else is missing?"

Yuan Ling, who was standing next to him, heard this and shook his head slightly.

Xiu Luoran sneered and said, "I always do things based on my mood and never care about my reputation."

The old man heard it and said: "Okay! If you don't build a brick house for me, I will spread bad things about you everywhere, saying that you are just seeking fame and pretending to be kind."

Xiu Luoran had already walked back, and when he heard this:

"Go ahead, just say whatever you want."

The old man became even more anxious when he saw that he could not threaten Xiu Luoran:

"I'm going to sue you at the government office. You've built houses for other people, so why don't you build one for my house?"

Xiu Luoran's voice came from afar:

“I’ll pay for it and build it for whoever I want.

Go ahead and sue me if you want. It would be best if you could file a complaint in the palace and let the emperor decide for you."
