Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 356

"My beloved concubine is right. Later, I will ask my father for a salary for you." Chu Haojue thought to himself that most of the money in the national treasury was earned by you.

"Why does the emperor want me to approve them?" Qiao Anan asked puzzledly.

"Ahem! This...I don't know either." Chu Haojue said with some guilt.

"You don't know? Then why don't you find it strange?" Qiao Anan looked at Chu Haojue and saw that he was obviously guilty. How could he not know?

Could he be hiding something from me?

"My father mentioned this matter." Chu Haojue said.

"Did you lie to me about something?" Qiao Anan stared at Chu Haojue and asked. Afraid that Chu Haojue was unwilling to tell the truth, she added, "You should know that I don't like being deceived! You said that you would be honest with me in the future." Qiao Anan warned.

"Father is on guard against me." Chu Haojue sighed and had to tell the truth.

"What am I guarding against you?" Qiao Anan asked without understanding for a moment.

"Be careful that I have second thoughts about you." Chu Haojue said with some frustration. Sometimes he even doubted whether he was the emperor's biological son. He always felt that in Chu Yuanming's heart, Qiao Anan was more important than him.

Chu Yuanming: No, you two are equally important.

"What does that have to do with the military camp's expenses?" Qiao Anan sympathized with the soldiers in the camp for a while.

I thought to myself, this is really an unexpected disaster. Just because I have fallen for a master like Chu Haojue, everything has to go through more procedures.

Like now, she is not in the capital, and she has to tighten her belt to make ends meet in the capital.

"I want to go back to the capital." After what happened today, Qiao Anan no longer had the idea of taking those girls back. Everyone has their own destiny. She sympathized with them and wanted to help them, but she was not sure that they would appreciate it.

It would be better to go to the pawnshop to buy people and hold their indentures in your own hands, so you don’t have to worry about them having any ulterior motives.

Especially when Qiao Anan thought about herself, she was pregnant now and had no time to teach them what to do.

"If you want to go back, then go back." Chu Haojue felt relieved when he heard Qiao Anan say this.

After all, he was also worried that something unexpected might happen here.

"Then I'll go back tomorrow." Since Qiao Anan decided to go back, she didn't plan to stay long.

"Well, I can't leave for the time being. I'll let Qingfeng take you back." Chu Haojue also wanted to send Qiao Anan back to the capital in person, but the things on the mountain had not been resolved yet, and the county magistrate had not yet taken office.

Chu Haojue can't leave now.

"Okay." After Qiao Anan said that, she fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Qiao Anan called Nanqi over.

"Nanqi, I'm planning to return to Beijing. You go and inform the two girls from the Qiao family that if they are willing, they can leave immediately. I'll wait for them here for an incense stick of time. If they are not willing, they can stay." Qiao Anan said.

"Okay, miss." Nanqi frowned, not understanding why Qiao Anan suddenly decided to go back.

"As for those girls, after this incident, I have given up the idea of taking them to the capital. You can give each of them twenty taels of silver and tell them that it is my compensation to them. You can also tell them that I am really afraid that the situation like the Liu family will happen again, so I will not take them away." Qiao Anan felt that the Liu family had a good excuse.

Qiao Ruo and Qiao Yuexin were already prepared, but when they heard Nanqi's words to set off immediately, they were both stunned for a moment, but soon went back to pick up the luggage they had already packed and were ready to leave.

"Ruoruo!" Qiao Xing looked at his daughter who was about to leave, feeling extremely reluctant to let her go.

"Dad, I will come back to see you." Qiao Ruo hugged Qiao Xing and said crying.

"Don't worry about your father. Once you get there, listen to your master in everything." Although Qiao Xing was reluctant, he also knew that his daughter would have a better future if she went to the capital.

It is said that the maids in the imperial palace are all ranked.

Even if my daughter finds a servant in the future, maybe that servant will be of high rank.

"Dad, I understand. Take good care of yourself." Qiao Ruo reminded him.

"Xinxin, when you go to the capital, just follow the young lady's instructions in everything." Qiao Zheng said to his daughter.

"Dad, I know. Take good care of yourself at home." Qiao Yuexin was reluctant to leave her father at this moment, but she did not regret making this choice.

"Okay, go quickly. The lady said she will only wait for you for an incense stick of time." Qiao Zheng urged his daughter.

I was afraid that Qiao Yuexin would be too late and Shen Qiaoanan would have already left.

Seeing Qiao Ruo and Qiao Yuexin arriving as expected, Qiao Anan didn't say much and just left with her people.

When Xiaohua and Tiaohua arrived at the inn, Qiao Anan had already left.

The two looked at the silver in their hands and felt a little sad. After all, Qiao Anan was like their reborn parent. They had thought they would have the chance to take care of her, but now, they missed it.

"It's all Qiaozhu's fault. She had nothing better to do than to sue Liu's sister-in-law!" Xiaohua said with some dissatisfaction.

"This is our fate." Tiaohua looked at the silver in his hand and said sadly.

Qiao Anan was walking in a hurry and was in a bad mood on the road. Qiao Ruo and Qiao Yuexin, who were following in the carriage behind her, felt a little embarrassed and did not dare to step forward to ask Qiao Anan any questions.

Dongxu and Qingfeng sent Qiao Anan back to Beijing together.

"Miss, the next stop is Durong City. Do you need to stay here?" Dongxu slowed down the carriage and asked.

"Rongcheng? Let's go and take a look." Qiao Anan thought, Rongcheng also has the Qiao family's business, so why not go and take a look, anyway, since they are here.

However, her shop in Rongcheng doesn't seem to be making any money.

Qingfeng didn't ask any more questions. When he heard Qiao Anan say that they wanted to go to Rongcheng, he drove the team towards Rongcheng.

After arriving in Rongcheng, Qiao Anan first checked into the Youkelai Inn, which she ran herself.

Looking at the endless stream of people, Qiao Anan thought, this business looks good, doesn't it?

But she remembered that the shop had been making losses every year.

"Nanqi, isn't this shop doing bad business?" Qiao Anan asked in confusion.

"Miss, every time I come to inspect, business here is not good. Maybe it's because you are here today that business is good." Nanqi thought for a while and said an answer that he thought was closest to reality.

"Do you believe this reason? Hide your identity first and don't expose it." Qiao Anan wanted to check the shop. If Nanqi exposed his identity, it would not be so easy to investigate.

There aren't many businesses here. The other one is a restaurant, also called Deyue Tower.

But it is said that the Deyue Tower here is doing very badly.

"Brother Liu, how about inviting you to dine at Rongcheng's most famous Deyue Tower today? It's said that the owner of this Deyue Tower is the same one who owns the most famous Deyue Tower in the capital!"
