Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2174

Shi Anxia ordered, "Go and call all the servants in this courtyard."

After a while, everyone arrived.

Shi Anxia gave him a look.

Nan Yan took out red envelopes from her sleeve and gave them out as rewards one by one.

Everyone knelt down happily with red envelopes in hand to express their gratitude.

Shi Anxia said, "From now on, you must serve your young lady wholeheartedly and not have any other thoughts. If you serve her well, you will naturally benefit from it."

Everyone agreed, thanked him, and left.

Over the years, Shi Anxia rarely came back to live. The servants who served her changed one after another, and many of them were no longer recognizable.

Shi Anrou was born out of wedlock and was an old maid, so she was bound to be criticized.

As the eldest princess of the Northern Wing, Shi Anxia had to support Shi Anrou in front of the servants, letting people know that their master had a backer and that it was not a case of sisters not getting along as rumored outside.

Nan Yan also stepped out and closed the door behind her.

Shi Anrou was deeply touched, "Xia'er, you are so kind to me."

"Sit down and talk." Shi Anxia looked at her. "I'm nice to you because you've changed. If I had been like this before, you would have thought I was trying to bribe the people in your courtyard, which would have been bad."

Shi Anrou lowered her head and said, "I was stupid back then." She suddenly raised her face, her eyes and eyebrows tinged with honey, "But I've gotten it now! I'm counting the days until I can return, Xia'er, and I'm waiting for you to come back and make a decision for me."

"Is it a marriage?" Shi Anxia paused slightly with the teacup in his hand.

When she saw Shi Anrou earlier, she thought she was the kind of person who looked lonely and lonely, with a shallow and complicated marriage plan, so she didn't dare to take the initiative to match her with someone she knew.

An unsuitable marriage will only harm both parties. Why bother?

Shi Anxia now looked carefully at Shi Anrou's face again, and it was clear that there were still a few strands of the Lonely Phoenix Evil lingering under her eyebrows.

This reminded her of Tang Xinghe and Ma Chuyang, who also had similar facial features. Over the years, she had never dared to interfere with the marriages of these couples, leaving them to their own devices.

It wasn't until the Lantern Festival two years ago that she saw the Red Luan Stars in the fate palaces of those people suddenly light up at the same time. That's when she decisively asked them to go out on a tour together and arrange their marriages.

Of course, Shi Anxia was only half-baked, so he couldn't see it accurately and couldn't necessarily take it seriously. "Tell me, what kind of person is he?"

Shi Anrou's face flushed, "His name is Du Hui, also known as Du Qilang."

When Shi Anxia heard the name, her eyelids still twitched. But she didn't show it on her face, and only asked, "How did you know each other?"

Shi Anrou didn't notice anything unusual and moved the embroidery cushion closer. "We've known each other for a long time. Back then, Xia'er, didn't you give me a few manors in Yanxing Mountain? Master Du rented my manor at double the market price, and he's still paying me the rent."

Shi Anxia listened carefully, pondered for a while, and then asked, "Do you know who is in his family now?"

"He... doesn't seem to have many family members." Shi Anrou actually wanted to get married, but after learning from her last experience, she didn't dare to agree to anyone's marriage easily. However, she kept picking out the other person's strengths to talk to Shi Anxia, "He's alone and seems to be very self-disciplined. Oh, he has a capable servant named Yushu by his side. His wife died many years ago, but he's still very loyal. He hasn't remarried or taken concubines. He's a good character."

Shi Anxia sighed slightly, "Then do you know why he is called Du Qilang? And why is the servant called Yushu?" Without waiting for Shi Anrou to answer, she said lightly, "Be obedient, you can't marry this man."
