After Sheng Sanniang recognized her relatives, she was in a very good mood.

She chatted with Sheng Xiaohan for a while before letting her take her things in and put them away.

At least I can calm down.

However, Lu Zhaoling felt that Grandma Sheng didn't want to calm down at all, but she needed to relax after pretending to be an elder for so long.

Sure enough, after Sheng Xiaohan entered, Madam Sheng San jumped in front of her.

"Master Lu, what do you think of me buying a house in the capital?"

Lu Zhaoling suddenly felt that she couldn't keep up with her thoughts. She was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to buy a house in Beijing?"

Madam Sheng San said, "You see, I used to live alone in Huai Garden with Master Lu, and I thought it was fine. But now I have family members too, and you just heard what Xiao Han said. There are still many people at home. If they all come to the capital in the future, I can't let them all live in Huai Garden."

"So I think we'll have to build a new Sheng family in the future anyway. We can't not have our own house. I don't want to go back to the old Sheng family, but the Sheng family doesn't have its own residence in the capital, which I think is not good. After all, you will still be the Princess of Jin in the capital. We are on your side, so we must have our own power here."

"I'm going to buy a house. When the Sheng family arrives, they'll have somewhere to stay. Master Lu, when you mention this to other people in the palace, you can proudly say, 'You know the Sheng family in the capital, right? They belong to me, too!'"

Phew.

Rong Jingjing and others also laughed.

Madam Sheng San is so passionate, how does she look like a dignified elder?

Lu Zhaoling bowed to Madam Sheng San and said, "I appreciate your kindness. Thank you, grandma."

Madam Sheng San waved her hand, very casually, "Say that!"

Lu Zhaoling suppressed her laughter, looked her over, and couldn't help asking, "But, Grandma, are you making a lot of money now? Are you rich?"

Madam Sheng San said a little guiltily, "No."

"Then do you know how much silver it costs to buy a house in the capital?"

Madam Sheng San said, "I'll buy something similar to what Master Yin paid, five thousand taels. I remember him saying that his Yin Mansion was bought for five thousand taels. Is that right, Master Yin?"

Yin Yunting couldn't help laughing after hearing what she said.

In fact, he got a bargain with the five thousand taels.

However, if Madam Sheng San wants to buy a house, she doesn't have to buy a big one. Five thousand taels should be enough, just don't buy one too close to the center of the capital.

"Big Sister, don't think that the Third Lady has no money. She was able to collect silver during her time as a ghost messenger in the Netherworld."

Yin Yunting gave Lu Zhaoling a look, and Lu Zhaoling immediately understood what he meant.

What the senior brother said must not be just a normal lack of money. It is estimated that Madam Sheng Sanmao has some extra income to earn.

However, since Yin Yunting knew about this matter, it meant that it was not against the rules.

Lu Zhaoling had heard Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai talk about these things before.

If some ghost messengers feel that they cannot complete the task by themselves, they will find helpers and let other ghost messengers do the task for them. The credit will continue to be attributed to them, and then this ghost messenger will have to pay a little reward.

With Sheng Sanniang's abilities, she must have helped many ghost officials complete their tasks.

Furthermore, if they found something in the underworld and were certain it was unowned, they could basically take it for themselves. A capable ghost messenger could become incredibly wealthy.

Madam Sheng Sanzi should not hide such things from her, but Lu Zhaoling guessed that other old ghosts and experienced people had taught Madam Sheng Sanzi, so when Madam Sheng Sanzi heard her ask about the silver, she felt a little guilty.

"Madam San, you can think about it yourself. If you really want to buy a house, you can ask Master Chen of Jingzhao Prefecture, or ask his subordinates."

Lu Zhaoling paused for a moment, then continued, "If you're short of money, you can tell me and I can help you out a bit."

Madam Sheng San nodded and agreed happily.

"Okay, Master Lu! If I don't have enough money, I'll borrow from you."

Seeing that she was so happy, Lu Zhaoling didn't want to pour cold water on her. Who knows if those people in the Sheng family want to come and live in the capital?

Meanwhile, Sheng Xiaohan returned to her room, opened the boxes and took a look. Sure enough, they were filled with expensive jewelry.

Her great aunt is so generous to her!

She was so anxious to write a letter to tell her father that her father would be so shocked that his jaw would drop.

Sheng Xiaohan has been wandering around Beijing these past few days and feels that the city is quite nice. She also thinks that she can have her family come to Beijing to live for a while in the future.

However, the inns in the capital are not cheap. If the whole family comes, it would not be convenient for them all to stay at Sister Lu's place.

It would be great if they had their own house in the capital.

At this time, Sheng Xiaohan and Sheng Sanniang had surprisingly similar ideas.

The wedding day is just two days away.

Lu Zhaoling felt that she had become very smooth and shiny these past few days. Although her senior disciple heard this word and accused her of misusing words, Lu Zhaoling thought it was quite appropriate. She was like a little piglet.

That night, Zhou Shiyue finally ran to Huaiyuan.

He and Lu Zhaoling haven't seen each other for many days.

As soon as he arrived in front of Lu Zhaoling, Zhou Shiyue waved his sleeves and said to the others, "Go ahead, all of you go have fun and leave me alone for a while."

Everyone understood the implication of his words.

The prince clearly wanted to be alone with the young lady, saying it wasn't quiet enough, but they weren't noisy people.

However, considering that the prince and the young lady had not seen each other for so many days, everyone was tactful and withdrew.

As soon as they left, Zhou Shiyue immediately hugged Lu Zhaoling, bent down and kissed her, giving her a long and passionate kiss.

This kiss made the body temperature of both of them rise steadily.

Lu Zhaoling put her hand on his chest and gently scratched it with her fingers.

Zhou Shiyue finally came to his senses and relaxed slightly, his chest heaving. He rested his forehead against Lu Zhaoling's, trying to calm his own panting.

"Don't worry, I can definitely hold it in at this time."

Lu Zhaoling couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"What if you can't help it?"

Does he dare to do whatever he wants now?

Zhou Shiyue really didn't dare to act recklessly.

After calming down, he sighed and said with a hint of complaint, "Aling, I've only managed to squeeze out a little time these past two days. I was going to spend the day with you in Huai Garden, but Madam Qing has repeatedly emphasized that we can't meet after tonight."

"Madame Qing told me I must go back at night."

If he doesn't come back, he will come to Huaiyuan to pick him up in person, otherwise he will lose face in front of others.

The next time we meet will be on our wedding night.

Before that, even when they met at the wedding ceremony, Lu Zhaoling had her head covered with a veil.
