The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?
Chapter 62 Taking Back the Shop and the Farm
The smile on Liu Mei'er's face froze. All that had already been taken to Qi'anbo Mansion as a dowry for Mu Xiyu. How could she possibly take it out? She looked stiffly at Mu Fengnian, "Master, this, that, that shop and farm were not your dowry for Yu'er? Now they have all been taken to Yu'er!"
Mu Xiyue curled the corners of her lips in a half-smile, "Second Madam, is it you or father who is mentally ill? I'm not dead yet, and my mother's dowry shop and farmland are being used as a dowry for a concubine's daughter. If this gets out, I'm afraid a lot of people will laugh to death!"
Liu Mei'er tried to force a smile, but the muscles on her face refused to obey and began to tremble. "Yue'er, Yu'er is also the legitimate daughter of the mansion."
"Oh, yes, you have been promoted from concubine to wife, so your daughter can be considered a legitimate daughter. But so what? Do you think you can covet my mother's things? I will give you half a day. You must return them to me before dinner tonight, otherwise, father, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Mu Xiyue left the study after she finished speaking. When she reached the outer courtyard, Xiao Tao was already getting anxious. "Miss, did the master give you a hard time?"
Mu Xiyue smiled and said, "No, have you asked the butler to arrange a carriage?"
Xiao Tao pointed outside, "Over there, I've been waiting for a long time."
"Then let's go. We have to wait a few more days before we can go out and play. I want them to return the four shops and a farm that my mother left me, but I guess I won't be able to get them today. Those shops and farms have probably become Mu Xiyu's wedding farm. The day after tomorrow is when Mu Xiyu returns home, and she has to bring them back to me. After I get them back, I have to replace the shopkeepers and clerks. I don't dare use Liu Mei'er's people."
Xiao Tao asked doubtfully, "Haven't those been transferred to the Second Madam's name? Can we get them back?"
Mu Xiyue sneered, "Of course I have to spit it out the same way I ate it. I didn't intend to take it back, but I feel bad when I think it might become Mu Xiyu's. I just need a profitable shop. And the manor, let's see if the location is good. If the location is good, we can live in the manor and save ourselves the trouble of buying a house here."
The carriage arrived at the gate of Prince Jin's mansion, and the guards at the gate respectfully welcomed the guests in.
Mu Xiyue arrived at Xiao Yibai's courtyard as if she was familiar with the place. Qi Yun was standing in the corridor. When he saw the two of them, he immediately came forward enthusiastically.
"Miss Mu, you're here. The prince is in the study. Please go over there!"
Mu Xiyue couldn't help laughing when she saw Qiyun winking at Xiaotao, "Okay, Xiaotao, just be sweet with Qiyun for a while."
Having said that, he went to the study room without caring about Xiao Tao's blushing face. He knocked once and Xiao Yibai opened the door from the inside.
"Yueyue, why are you here today?"
Mu Xiyue poured herself a cup of tea in a familiar manner and said, "I came to tell you that Xiaotao and I will go out to play for a few days in a few days."
Xiao Yibai was stunned. "Where are we going? How long will it take?"
"I don't know, I'd like to hear your opinion. I'm just bored and want to go out and see some things. Do you know of any fun places?"
Xiao Yibai thought for a moment, "When do you want to leave? Can we leave later? If you're not in a hurry, I'm going to Liangzhou in three days, and you can come with me. From here to Liangzhou, we'll pass through Yunyou City, Xitongzhou, Cangwuzhou, and Luohe County. These places are relatively rich, so you can spend more time there. When I come back from Liangzhou, we can return to Beijing together."
"That's fine. I don't care where to go, I just have too much free time here. What are you going to Liangzhou for? Is it dangerous?"
Mu Xiyue wanted to travel whenever she had money in her pocket. It was something she didn't have time to do in her previous life, but of course she had to do it now that she had the money and time.
Xiao Yibai refilled her tea and replied with a smile, "The situation in Liangzhou isn't dangerous, but there are always people who want me to die outside. Don't worry, they have a lot of assassins, I can handle it. This time, my father's Qilin Guard will be accompanying me on this mission. Each of the Qilin Guards is capable of fighting ten enemies at once. You don't have to take action unless it's absolutely necessary."
Mu Xiyue nodded, "Okay, I understand. I came here at this time mainly to eat. I want to have fried chicken and pork ribs with sauce for lunch."
Xiao Yibai chuckled and called out "Qiyun" outside the door. There was no movement outside the door, so Xiao Yibai called out "Qifeng" again.
Qi Feng quickly pushed the door open and came in, "Master, Miss Mu!"
Mu Xiyue asked with a smile on her face: "This is Qiyun's twin brother. They look exactly like him, but he is a little colder than Qiyun."
Xiao Yibai curled his lips, "Twins are naturally alike. Qifeng, tell the kitchen to add a poached chicken, braised pork ribs, a steamed schizothorax, and some of Miss Mu's favorite cakes to the lunch."
Qifeng is really cold, almost expressionless, while Qiyun is just the opposite, always smiling every day.
Mu Xiyue stayed in Prince Jin's Mansion until evening before returning to the Marquis' Mansion. After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, she first went to find Mu Fengnian. Mu Fengnian felt a headache when he saw Mu Xiyue.
"Yue'er, your mother's shops and farms have already been given to Yu'er as her dowry. It would be inappropriate to take them back. When you get married, your father will definitely give you four shops and a farm as well. Do you think this is a good idea?"
Mu Xiyue sneered, "Of course not. Those four shops and one farm were left by my mother. They were originally mine. Why should I give them to Mu Xiyu? If what father said is true, then these four shops and one farm will become the property of the Marquis's family. In that case, what Mu Xiyu has should naturally be given to me, the eldest daughter. Father will have to give me eight shops and two farms as compensation."
Mu Fengnian's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Why didn't he rob this rebellious girl? She had eight shops and two farms. There were only ten shops and two farms in the Marquis' Mansion, and six of them were in Luofeng City.
"Mu Xiyue, do you really not care about family affection?"
Mu Xiyue's eyes were full of sneers. "Father, what you said is true. You haven't thought about family affection at all! If father cared about family affection, he wouldn't want to marry me to a fool. If father really treated me as his daughter, he wouldn't poison me. If Mu Xiyu was my sister, she wouldn't collude with outsiders to frame me. Why, when it comes to me, he should care about family affection. Is father too naive?"
Mu Fengnian was speechless. He really had never cared about his daughter. It seemed that she would not give up unless he gave her the shop and the farm today.
"Come here, ask Madam to come over and tell her that the eldest lady is waiting for her here."
When Liu Mei'er came, she was holding a stack of deeds in her hand. I didn't expect her to be so active. I thought she would wait until Mu Xiyu came home before delivering them.
Mu Xiyue looked through all the deeds, all of which were transferred to Mu Xiyu's name half a month ago.
"Father, Second Madam, these properties were originally under my mother's name. Now that she's gone, they can't be transferred without my signature. I wonder how you managed to do it? It's getting late today. Who of you will go with me tomorrow morning to handle the transfer procedures? And don't even think about shorting the shop. If it ends up in my hands, it'll be a shorted shop, haha!"
Liu Mei'er trembled when she saw Mu Xiyue's cold eyes. She had already instructed all the shopkeepers to make a false account today. How could she be willing to hand over the shop like this? The shop would definitely be in deficit. But Mu Xiyue's words scared her. She was really afraid that Mu Xiyue would go crazy.
