"Yes, my daughter brought back a new toy. I was so happy playing with it that I almost missed the opportunity to welcome you all."

The old lady also responded with a smile.

Although no one greeted us at the door, the old lady coming out in person was considered an honor, so no one said anything and everyone was very interested in this new toy.

Sure enough, once you start playing, you can’t stop.

The ten tables prepared by Leng Ruoxue were not enough, and no one went to appreciate the flowers. It was the same activities every year with no novelty. They were eager to try this new thing and just stood there watching and didn't leave.

Leng Ruoxue changed her clothes and waited at the door for an hour before she finally greeted everyone. When she entered the hall, she saw nine mahjong tables surrounded by people.

Those who have lost their chips will leave the table and line up to wait for their turn.

There was no one queuing at the table of old ladies because they directly used their silver and jewelry to buy chips, so... they had a gambling nature?

Everyone was having a great time, and Leng Ruoxue didn't know what to say, so she just agreed.

I had no idea that the male guest was just going for it. There was only one table and he couldn't even use money to buy chips.

It was only then that Wei Qinfeng found Leng Ruoxue and the place where the order was made that he got a few defective sets of mahjong and had them made urgently that the situation was resolved.

There is no time for tables and chairs, but we can still play mahjong.

Besides mahjong, the most popular thing is the toilet.

Everyone knows that there is something called a glass mirror at home. I was embarrassed to take a close look at it in a glass shop, but I didn’t expect there was one in the toilet of the Duke of Weiguo’s mansion.

Word spread quickly and soon everyone knew about it.

I took the opportunity of going to the toilet to take a closer look.

No one dared to mention the fact that Wei Yu grew up in a farming family.

The prestige of the Duke of Wei's Mansion is the first reason. The second reason is that she already had an imperial edict before she entered the Duke of Wei's Mansion. The third reason is that these new things are not available in the aristocratic mansions. They were brought by Wei Yu. Is the aristocratic family inferior to a peasant family? This is something that everyone does not want to admit.

Leng Ruoxue, as the future consort of the Eighth Prince and a county lady with a fiefdom, is not afraid of the daughters of aristocratic families. Now she is the granddaughter of the Duke's Mansion.

No one was unhappy at the banquet, and it was a perfect dinner.

The next day, Leng Ruoxue made a surprising decision. She decided to return to her fiefdom.

The reason is to prepare for spring plowing in advance.

He acted first and reported to his family later, and only told them after he had resigned from the palace.

The queen was naturally happy. She praised Leng Ruoxue and said that she would take good care of Wei Yu and the others while they were in the capital.

A lot of things were given as rewards.

Leng Ruoxue went to Lize Palace again and said goodbye to Concubine Ya.

Ya Fei was very surprised. Normally, Leng Ruoxue would have been able to break into the circle of noble ladies in the capital by recognizing her relatives. Why didn't she expand her social circle and go back to farming?

After thinking for a long time, he smiled with relief, "You are really smart."

He didn't say much, and asked someone to take the things he wanted to send to the Eighth Prince, and then let Leng Ruoxue leave the palace.

After leaving the palace, Leng Ruoxue went straight to the Leng residence and found the housekeeper, "Please help me make an appointment with Master Nan. We must meet today. I will be back to my fiefdom tomorrow."

The housekeeper went out to make arrangements. Leng Ruoxue packed up all the things in the Leng residence and had them delivered to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion, and also sent away the people she brought with her.

When the housekeeper saw this, he ran again and replied, "See you at Leng's house at lunch."

This time, Nangong Yi entered the Leng Mansion in a low-key manner.

His face doesn't look that good either.

Leng Ruoxue handed over the house deed and the indenture, "I am not interested in the capital, but the cooperation will continue. If the house has a price, I hope to buy it. If Master Nan doesn't want to take the people in the house, I will release their indentures. After all, you know, I don't support idle people. There are so many people in the house in the capital, I can't afford it."

Nangong Yi's complexion looked much better.

"Please accept the house. I will take you back as my reward for saving my life."

"So good!"

Leng Ruoxue didn't act pretentiously and took back the house deed.

"Don't you have anything else to say?"

Nangong Yi felt a little hurt. He had always treated Leng Ruoxue as his own, but now Leng Ruoxue had drawn a clear line between them.

Leng Ruoxue: What?

in silence.

"Forget it. You have no choice. It's too late for me to get the news. If I had known this would happen, ..."

"If I had known this, Master Nan would be powerless to do anything."

Leng Ruoxue finally said something.

"Haha, indeed. Consider this meal as my advance notice to you. You can arrange for someone to come and pick up the house in the evening."

Leng Ruoxue felt relaxed all over. She accompanied Nangong Yi for lunch and then returned to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion. Only then did she tell everyone that she would be returning to her fiefdom the next day.

I have already gone to the palace to resign, what can everyone say? I hurriedly prepared, but Leng Ruoxue declined.

"I plan to ride back alone, without anyone else. My mother has arranged for someone to pick up the Leng residence, and the people inside will be taken back at night."

Wei Yu wanted to go with Leng Ruoxue, but Leng Ruoxue persuaded him to stop. "You haven't recovered yet, so you can rest in the capital. The Leng residence is back and everyone is ours. Mother can live in the Wei Mansion or the Leng residence if she wants. If you really miss father, you can go to Nanjing Village. When I have sorted out Qingyuan County, I will also return to the capital. The affairs of the Leng residence still need mother to take care of it."

Wei Yu thought for a moment and said, "I want to be with your father. After you leave, I will go to Nanjing Village to accompany your father in a few days."

"Mother is right to think so. If you miss your grandparents, you can come and see them anytime. After all, you are a married daughter. Just because your grandparents and uncles have no objections and your aunts don't say anything, it doesn't mean it's appropriate for us to live in the Wei Mansion for a long time."

Once things were settled, Wei Yu couldn't wait to arrange for people to pack up.

The lady was reluctant but helpless, "My daughter lives not far away, she can come back anytime if she misses her parents."

The old lady agreed to release him, but she asked Wei Yu to bring his family to the Wei Mansion for a meal on Leng Zejin's day off.

Leng Ruoxue and Wei Yu did not avoid the old lady when they spoke, and the old lady also knew that what Leng Ruoxue said made sense.

After sorting out her own shop and land, she said, "These should have been given to you when you got married. Keep them now, otherwise mother will not let you leave the house."

"Go and call the eldest daughter-in-law, take 5 taels from the public treasury, and give Ruoxue ten guards."

The old man in the front yard came over. This matter was too sudden, so he had to do his best to make arrangements.

Wei Yu Leng Ruoxue declined, "I am the daughter of Duke Wei, these are what I should give you, so don't refuse."

Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment, "Mother, take the silver. You should spend more time with grandpa in the future. The cargo ship from Qingyuan County to the capital city runs about once every two weeks. It will be convenient for you to send letters if there is anything. Grandpa, instead of giving me guards, how about giving me two good horses?"

"Why, you look down on the guards of my guard house?"

Grandfather looked at Leng Ruoxue with a smile. He knew that Leng Ruoxue's capable guard was sent by the prince.
