Not many people knew about this past story within the Old Madame Xu. If she hadn't heard her daughter and granddaughter mention that there was something wrong with Jiang Family and Jiang Han, she wouldn't have been able to remember it either.

”When your uncle was still young, he fell in love with a peasant girl. The girl's father had died early, and he had brought a widowed mother to set up stalls in the city to sell food.

Your uncle should have liked her at that time, but even though his Jiang Family is for business, he still doesn't like that peasant girl.

Back then, this matter was rather chaotic. Although the Jiang Family was not as great as it is now, it was still one of the top families in the capital.

Afterwards, your uncle married, and other people thought that he had lost contact with the village girl. However, twenty years ago, I saw her with my own eyes in the Jiang Family.

At that time, she was a woman in disguise. Due to what happened that year, she caused too much disturbance. I had seen her once, so I recognized her with a single glance. ”

The Old Madame Xu only knew this much, but the matter that she mentioned caused Xu Yanzhu to be extremely shocked.

Xu Yanzhu did not think too deeply about it before, but after hearing what her grandmother had to say, she felt that this matter was extremely important.

It was only because she didn't know much about Jiang Family, that after hearing about this matter, she didn't know what to say.

However, Xu Yanzhu was still thinking about it. She would find some time to ask her mother, and even though her relationship with her mother was currently not good, she would still be able to find a way to ask about these things.

After saying this, Old Madame Xu told the two of them that there were guests at home.

”He Ce has to be used in the middle of the autumn. Although our family's shop has a manager, Shiqiu's intention is to do some business that we haven't set foot in before.”

Just as Old Madame Xu finished speaking, Xu Yanzhu nodded her head and said: ”Third Uncle's plan is not bad, the shop in front of us was affected because Master was not in the capital. ”Now that these stores have continued doing their previous business, if I were to find some businesses that I didn't do before, I can earn more silver in the future.”

”Yanzhu is right, when I see my sister-in-law later, I want to let her know as well. If you really have problems with your family's business, then go to the Fifth Prince Palace and find me. ”

Xu Nuanwen was also someone who supported her family in doing business. She understood Xu Shiqiu's intentions, so it was impossible for her to not have money.

They did not want to get greedy in Xu Family, but they definitely had to do business.

As the three generations of ancestors were talking, Dong Shu had also brought Yuanxi, who had just finished swapping milk for diapers, to the Main Yard.

The moment they saw Yuanxi, Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu immediately reached out to hug her, but in the end Yuanxi did not look at them at all. Instead, she reached out her hands towards Old Madame Xu.

”Yuanxi is already used to being carried by Mother everyday. Once she reaches Main Yard, Mother will have to hug him for a while.” As Dong Shu said this, she looked somewhat embarrassedly at Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu and smiled.

Xu Nuanwen and Xu Yanzhu naturally would not be angry. Seeing Yuanxi obediently sitting in the Old Madame Xu's embrace, with his big eyes still staring at them, their gazes were immediately attracted to Yuanxi.

Seeing that Aunt Sister and her niece had been staring at their mother-in-law, Dong Shu then looked at his mother-in-law and said, ”Mother, my husband told me this morning before he left that today and tomorrow is the first exam in the army camp. So he won't go home tonight, and will bring Shuo back tomorrow afternoon. The day after tomorrow he will give the soldiers in the barracks a day of leave. ”

Before Old Madame Xu even heard Dong Shu's words, Xu Nuanwen, who was watching him, spoke out first. ”I originally planned to go to the camp to see Brother Shuo, but since he's following his uncle back tomorrow night, I'll stay in the manor for the next two days.”

While talking, Xu Nuanwen instructed the people outside: ”Men, go and tell Xuan Ge'er that his second brother will be back tomorrow. Let him obediently stay in the manor for the next two days and not be naughty.”

Hearing Xu Nuanwen's words, Old Madame Xu said: ”I only remembered when you mentioned Xuan Ge'er, where is he?”

”This child's health is better this year, and he has become much skinnier than before. ”When I just arrived at the manor, I saw a group of children of the same age playing there. He begged me for a long time, and I agreed to let him play with those kids for a while.”

Xu Nuanwen said that Ye Xuan was mischievous, but his expression was filled with joy.

It was only after some thought did he understand that the reason Ye Xuan was being so mischievous was also because his body had improved. If it was still the same like before, he wouldn't have gone out to play even if Ye Xuan wanted him to.

”Since there are no children at the same age as Xuan Ge'er, he is just bored. However, Second Uncle Xu's family has a few grandchildren that are about the same age as Xuan Ge'er.

Dong Shu was a little familiar with the grandchildren of the Xu Family. Previously, when they were still at Xiahe Village, they were studying and reading with him.

Now that they were in the capital, the few kids all had things to do, but they could still find a few who could choose to play with the Xuan Ge'er.

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Nuanwen's eyes lit up, and after hearing Dong Shu introducing Xu Family, Xu Jie was not married yet, he immediately laughed: ”What a coincidence, there is a palace maid in mufei's palace who is leaving this year, and is one year younger than Xu Jie, I wonder if he is willing to marry her.” After saying that, Xu Nuanwen saw that everyone was looking at him, so he continued to explain, ”I would never say anything, this lady is very sensible, she is also intelligent, her looks are not bad, and before anything happens, she is the daughter of an Elementary Scholar, she can read.”

Xu Nuanwen was not someone who would casually become a matchmaker. The palace maid she was talking about had always been helping her scout out out news of the Consort De Palace.

Now that she was leaving the palace, her parents had already passed away. Originally, she had wanted to find a good home for her.

Although Xu Jie currently had no official body, he still followed Xu Shiqiu. As long as he was not too bad, he would definitely have an official position in the future.
