The gambling god's wife in the Duke's Mansion is getting divorced again

Xiao Yue lowered her head and hesitated for a long time:

"My sister came up with it on her own, I don't have any other intentions.

If my brother feels that his sister is overstepping her bounds, just pretend I never mentioned it.

Now that my sister Awan is back, does that mean I am alienated from you, brother?"

Xiao Ji shook his head. "What does this have to do with Ah Wan? You're getting off topic.

You and I are both members of the royal family. We receive the emperor's salary and are loyal subjects. All we have to do is do our own duties well.

Look at which member of the royal family can hold real power? Look at Uncle Duan, he has been in his fiefdom for many years, but he is still suspected by the government. He came to the capital to apologize with his head hanging on his head. If the Nan'an Palace holds real power, he will be doomed soon.

"Brother, A Yue said the wrong thing." Xiao Yue lowered her head.

Xiao Ji helped her up, glanced at the silent Sang Wan, and said apologetically: "I scared you, Wan."

"It doesn't matter. I don't understand what Sister Yue and Brother are saying."

Her voice was soft and a little timid.

This made Xiao Yue feel relieved. She wiped away the tears from her eyes and shook Xiao Ji's clothes:

"It's all my fault. I scared Ah Wan. Brother, just think of it as me being a little crazy for your own good. Don't take it to heart."

"You." Xiao Ji was helpless when she started to act coquettishly. "The farm and shop have a good harvest this year. I asked Uncle Li to pack two boxes of silver for you. You can take it back later. The New Year is coming. Buy what you need and spend what you need. If it's not enough, tell your brother."

"Brother, you are so nice!" Xiao Yue rushed over and hugged Xiao Ji, laughing so hard that her body shook.

"Awan has some too, and brother reserved one for you as well."

Xiao Ji was afraid that Sang Wan would feel disappointed, so he immediately added a sentence.

Sang Wan smiled sweetly: "Thank you, brother."

They are both brothers. Xiao Ji and Sang Daqing are like heaven and earth.

On the carriage back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the servant took out the gilded carved hand warmer and handed it to Xiao Yue.

"What did my uncle say?"

Shen Muchi put his arm around Xiao Yue's shoulders and sniffed behind her ear.

Xiao Yue felt annoyed and pushed him:

"I've already told you, my brother is a coward and would never dare to hold any real power.

Think about my father, who lost his life while inspecting salt in Jiangnan.

Tell your father-in-law that the Six Departments' supervision of construction is a bummer, let's push it to someone else."

"Tsk tsk, why are you mad at me? Big brother, you're really something. The Governor of the Six Ministries is a lucrative position. Dad specially created this position for you, my brother-in-law. You can report directly to the emperor and supervise the six ministries. You can say you have both power and prestige. Why can't you see the light? The Nan'an Prince's Palace holds such a title, and can't it make a living? Look at that Prince Duan. Whenever his son makes a small mistake, he has to run back like a dog to beg for mercy."

"Bah! Can you say something nice? What is a dog? How can my brother be a dog!" Xiao Yue dropped her pink fist.

Shen Muchi screamed repeatedly, then apologized with a licked face: "I was talking about Prince Duan, not my brother-in-law."

"What I said is true. Although he looks like a prince, with all the glitz and glamour, he is actually not as influential as a powerful official in the capital. Ayue, this lucrative position must not fall into the hands of anyone else."

"I can't persuade him. My brother gave me the cold shoulder today." Xiao Yue pressed her hand against her forehead and rolled her eyes at him. "Don't forget, I'm not his only sister now."

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't jealous or angry. She had a younger sister out of nowhere, and it took her a long time to mentally prepare herself to accept Sang Wan.

The Queen passed away, and the Queen Mother has been ill for a long time. If she becomes enemies with her natal family, the Nan'an Palace, who will be able to take care of her?

"How can that country girl compare with you?" Shen Muchi said this, feeling a little itchy in his heart.

Having tasted all sorts of delicacies from land and sea, the sight of wild game always makes one salivate. That girl has a unique aura, even standing far away, it's as if she has a hook.

Xiao Yue glanced at him and said, "In terms of appearance, she looks more like my mother than I do.

Back then, my mother was as famous as Zheng Yunlan in the capital. Zheng was like a rich, vibrant peony, while my mother was like a pure, elegant lotus, equally beautiful.

It can be seen that her brother is more partial to her.

In addition, she also has her mother's Lu Ban Qiangong Lock, which is a unique item in the world.

When I was brought back to the palace, some people questioned my identity because I didn't have this lock on me."

It was Xiao Ji who was certain that she was the one based on the intuition between her eyebrows and the blood connection, and thus silenced the crowd.

"I heard that she's been living alone in the Jiangnan countryside for these years, an orphan without a father or a mother. I'm curious, how did she survive?"

He didn't care, but the old man in his family insisted that he find out more.

"She eats food from a hundred families and wears clothes from a hundred families. When her brother found her, he heard that she was so poor that she had no money and had to pawn her gold locks. That's how he found her.

This girl is lucky. If my brother hadn't gone to Jiangnan in anger because of that Tianxuan Sect rebel who used my father's name, he would never have met her in this life."

Xiao Yue felt a little jealous. If she hadn't met him, she would be the only legitimate daughter of the Prince of Nan'an's Mansion.

In previous years, Xiao Ji gave her a lot of money to spend, but now it has to be divided into two parts.

"They say Jiangnan is home to beautiful women. Ultimately, my mother-in-law has a good foundation. Even though she grew up in such a poor place, she still has an outstanding temperament, not inferior to the pampered ladies in Beijing."

Shen Muchi took one look at Xiao Yue's face and said, "Hey, don't be so angry. What I mean is that such a good sister-in-law should be found a good marriage."

Xiao Yue was stunned for a moment, seemingly unable to react. Shen Muchi sighed and said:

"Brother-in-law doesn't want to get involved, so we have to find a good brother-in-law so that we can control all the benefits in the future. Don't you think so?"

"That's right. She's unfamiliar with the capital, and my brother never really cares about marriages. I chose you that day, and although he was a little unhappy, he still went along with my wishes. My sister doesn't seem to have seen much of the world, but she still listens to me."

Xiao Yue smiled and had a plan in mind.

"We have to hurry, otherwise these six governor-generals' products will fall into the hands of others." Shen Muchi whispered in his ear, "Our father wants his official position and reputation, so you must not get involved. If this matter is handled well, our family will listen to you."

Xiao Yue's lips curled up, and she couldn't help but scold: "You're just playing with me like a monkey."

Shen Muchi held her hand and kissed her: "My dear, your husband's heart is more precious than gold."

"I see, your sincerity has probably already shattered into gold foil and scattered all over those brothels. If there's any woman there who hasn't picked it up, please let me know. I'll have someone deliver it to them tomorrow."

Xiao Yue said she was disgusted, but she was still happy in her heart.

Although my husband is a playboy, he never dares to bring any messy things into the house. Now there is not even a concubine or maid in the house, so it can be considered clean.

Ever since the late queen passed away, her mother-in-law has repeatedly warned her that if she has no more children, she will send someone else into their room.

She felt very upset when she thought about this.

The Shen family is snobbish. If she doesn't have any tricks up her sleeve, she might not be able to hold Shen Muchi's heart in the future.

Who should I marry my younger sister?
