Yang Zizhi laughed indifferently: ”Didn't I already allow you to do something that you don't want?”
”Sigh, so Big Brother still doesn't know? Mother brought up this matter with me again today and only told me to come back and think about it, but as a little brother, how could I take away Big Brother's heart?”
Yang Zizhi originally did not have much of a feeling towards Huang Lian, but he liked those kinds of small chilies. Needless to say, the taste of the two brothers was really …
”Then I'll go tell mother that I agreed to give my cousin to me.” Only the stuff that was snatched away tasted good. Huang Lian had turned into a fragrant steamed bun.
Yang Zixuan raised his eyes and looked at the Evergreen Tree, he then picked up the cup of hot tea and sipped, under the faint tea mist, his expression could not be seen, and only his cold voice came out.
”Big Brother, aren't you giving mother face by going over like this?”
When Yang Zizhi thought about how Huang Lian was going to roll into his arms and act coquettishly, he became even more unhappy and asked impatiently, ”This is neither right nor left, what methods do you have?
Yang Zixuan laughed: ”My fair daughter, a noble is easy to catch! Brother, you have to work hard! ”
Yang Zizhi was startled for a moment, although he then patted Yang Zixuan's shoulder and laughed: ”Based on your methods today, when we get points, I will grant you some silver coins, so that you will be able to live comfortably for the time being.”
Yang Zixuan smiled like a fireworks in the third month, dazzling Yang Zizhi's eyes for a moment. He only thought to himself: It's a pity that I accidentally gave birth to a man, if I were to give birth to a woman, wouldn't that make him look good again?
Yang Zixuan naturally did not know his despicable thoughts, and the two spoke a few more words of respect. As Yang Zizhi received Yang Zixuan's letter, his heart became more and more impatient, and he hurriedly left his small courtyard to find Huang Lian to fawn on him.
Two more days passed. As Xiao Tong had been busy helping Yang Zixuan take care of some important matters, Yang Zixuan called a servant to follow him to the street to bid on the Purple Vajra.
Yang Zixuan had only just stepped out of the house when someone came to report to Madam Hou. She was lying on the soft couch as he waited for the little girl to beat his thighs.
Seeing the Shen Mama walk in from outside the door, she did not bother to pay attention to him and continued to squint her eyes to the side as she dozed off.
”Madam, when the third young master went out, he heard from the little girl sweeping the yard that she was going to buy Purple Vajra for the crown prince.”
Madam Hou slowly opened his eyes when he heard that, and asked doubtfully: ”Alright, alright, what evil intentions does that little bastard have? Tell Zhi Er not to approach him any further. ”
Shen Mama had a difficult expression and stood at the side silently.
Madam Hou saw that she was not acting like usual, so he asked: ”What else do you want?”
The Shen Mama hesitated for a moment, then said: ”I heard that the son went to Third Young Master's courtyard.”
”What?” You went to that bastard's yard? ” Immediately, Hou Fu recalled that his own son had never grown up. These days, he hadn't been clamoring for some lousy bird.
Seeing that she was unhappy, Shen Mama could only comfort her: ”Madam, please don't be angry. The prince only went to Third Young Master's courtyard because he was instigated by a villain. Perhaps he knew that Third Young Master had saved up some silver all these years, so he went to get it from him.”
Madam Hou scolded him: ”Seriously, if we were to talk about him later, the Hou Mansion will lose a bit of his silver. We would even have to ask that little bastard for it.” However, the lifted corners of her mouth revealed her feelings.
Seeing that the Madam Hou was in a good mood, he laughed: ”Madam, why don't you take a look at who the successor is?
Madam Hou liked her words a lot as he smiled and said, ”That's true. In the future, the entire palace will be counting on us, Zhi Er.”
”The Hou clan isn't the only ones hoping. Even the entire clan can't hope for the son of the Crown Prince to lead them in the future.”
Shen Mama's words were referring to the many connections the Hou Residence had made over the years. Although Marquis of Loyalty had brought Yang Zixuan to various places, that was also because he was a student overseer.
Madam Hou thought that although his son wasn't someone who would advance, he could still reasonably inherit the position of the Marquis of Loyalty.
”That's right, those poor relatives only wanted to make a living. Sigh, when it comes to this, I wish I could cut off these poor relatives, and not only would all of them be unable to help Zhi Er, every single one of them would even need to take out a tenth of their harvest to kill these people. After dozens of years, at the very least tens of thousands of silver had gone down the drain.”
