Chapter 548 - What Does Prince Xin Mean? (1/2)

“Okay, Zhuozhuo, what kind of furniture do you like? I will make them for you.” Rui’an Great Elder Princess, who was delighted that her granddaughter was so close to her, nodded repeatedly and said.

“I like every furniture you make, grandma!” Shao Wanru said with a smile, while reaching out to shake Great Elder Princess’s hand with the delight fading in her watery eyes, “Duke Xing’s Mansion must have not prepared a courtyard for me. Even if they do, it would not be a good courtyard. Grandma, you can seize this opportunity to make them prepare a good courtyard for me!”

The better they had to prepare for her, the more distressed Madam of Duke Xing would be. She had burned down a good courtyard. If she took over another one, Madam of Duke Xing would be extremely distressed, and that was what she would like to see.

The more distressed Madam of Duke Xing was, the better. After all, as a junior, she had no right to choose a courtyard. But her grandma was in a different situation. With her grandma’s status, coupled with what they did to her this time, her grandma could definitely make Duke Xing’s Mansion prepare a good courtyard for her. It was almost time for her to come down the mountain, and she was not willing to live in any courtyard they offered casually.

Since Duke Xing’s Mansion was going to take her back, they must offer her the best courtyard. She had to leave at that time. When she returned, she must show all members of Duke Xing’s Mansion that she didn’t come back in disgrace.

A good courtyard was of vital importance to her position in Duke Xing’s Mansion in the future!

She would get herself a good courtyard, and then get another one for Hao’er. Although he lived in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion now, Duke Xing’s Mansion had to prepare another courtyard for him. The one he had lived before was not good, because it was only suitable for a child who hadn’t received an education. Now that Hao’er had begun to receive an education, he couldn’t live in the courtyard, where he had lived in his childhood. Of course, the courtyard, where their parents had lived, was the best option.

The courtyard had always been the residence of the Heir of Duke Xing’s Mansion. If Hao’er could live in this courtyard, it almost meant that all members of the mansion acknowledged him as the heir.

She was going to step on Duke Xing’s Mansion and get everything they owed them in the last life back step by step…

Rui’an Great Elder Princess immediately understood what she meant, reached out to touch her forehead and said reproachfully, “Little mischievous monkey, okay, I’ll seize the opportunity to make them offer you the courtyard, which had been burned down before. I heard that it’s even better than what it used to be after being rebuilt. Duke Xing’s Mansion has not given up the plan to use the courtyard as their First Young Master’s bridal courtyard!”

“Has the courtyard been rebuilt?” Shao Wanru blinked her watery eyes and asked.

“Yes, I heard that everything inside is better than before. The marriage of the First Young Master is now being discussed, and it will probably be settled soon. If it’s settled, the First Young Master is going to get married before long. This courtyard is not bad as a bridal courtyard!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess said with a sneer. Although she couldn’t displease the Old Madam, who was extremely sick and weak, she could displease the others of Duke Xing’s Mansion, who should be healthy!

“Okay, I’ll live in this courtyard. Grandma, you can send some servants to measure its size and then send a set of furniture there!” Shao Wanru nodded and said. With a set of furniture given by Great Elder Princess placed there, the courtyard would belong to her even if she had not returned to the mansion yet.

Duke Xing’s Mansion might have other excuses to reject it before. After failing to set up Shao Wanru, they had no excuse to reject her grandma’s request.

Considering Old Madam’s poor health, Madam of Duke Xing was the only one who could come forward to negotiate. Shao Wanru was rather looking forward to seeing Madam of Duke Xing almost spat blood in anger but had to give away the courtyard…

“Okay, I’ll ask Nanny Gao to go there later!”

“Grandma, can I borrow a reliable coachman from you? My coachman seems to be working for someone else,” Shao Wanru said. She had thought that he was just an ordinary coachman. However, since he could be bribed, he was no longer reliable. “The coachman is outside now. Grandma, please instruct someone to detain him.”

“Nanny Gao, find a reliable coachman to replace the former one!” Hearing that the coachman driving for her granddaughter might be a spy sent by Duke Xing’s Mansion, Great Elder Princess immediately said in rage. Although the coachman was not as close to the master as a maid, he was usually needed when the master went out. If the coachman actually worked for someone else, it could cause trouble easily.

“I’ll go to do it right now!” Knowing that it couldn’t be neglected, Nanny Gao hurriedly went out to find a maid, instructed her to send a coachman to the parking lot and taught her how to do it in a low voice. The maid nodded repeatedly and turned away.

“Your Highness, Prince Xin asks to see you!” An old maid hurried in and reported.

“Prince Xin?” Great Elder Princess said with a frown. These princes seldom came to her place. She was wondering if something happened and brought him here. “Invite him in!”

“Yes!” the old maid said and went out, and soon came in with Chu Liuxin.

Seeing that Shao Wanru was here, Chu Liuxin, whose face was wreathed with smiles, gave an even brighter smile. He took two steps forward, bowed to Great Elder Princess respectfully and said, “Greetings, great-aunt!”

Great Elder Princess invited him to sit down, and Shao Wanru came over to salute him and then also sat down. The servants served tea.

“Why do you have time to visit me today?” Great Elder Princess looked at Chu Liuxin with a smile and asked.

“I pass by your mansion and stop by. Unexpectedly, Cousin Wanru is also here. I’m sorry for my abrupt visit!” Chu Liuxin said with a smile.

In the past two years, he grew up very fast into quite a graceful man and was no longer an unrestrained teenager. The several princes of the royal family were all extraordinarily handsome. Chu Liuxin, who was no longer as mischievous as he had been in his childhood, looked like a prince now.
