"What?" King Qi turned to a different angle, blocking out the light in front of me. He finally saw his expression clearly. His brows were furrowed tightly, and his eyes were wide open. Who told you that I'm going to marry the Young Miss of the Xue Clan? "

He recalled how Miss Xue had looked like she wanted to say something, but was unable to. It was obvious that she was just beginning to have feelings for King Qi. How could I have guessed wrong?

"How could the old fox of the Xue Clan marry his daughter to me?" He grinned, folded his arms across his chest, and looked at me playfully.

Looks like I guessed wrongly, the Xue Clan isn't trying to marry Xue Ninglu off to King Qi. But with such a precious dowry, where would he send his daughter?

"What, seeing how This King can't marry a wife, do you worry for This King?" "He turned to face the sun again, and for a moment I was dazzled by the sunlight, the dark patterns of his boots glinting in the light." This King doesn't mind marrying you! " The face turned bright against the sunlight, and his hair turned golden.

"Miss Xue seems to be very fond of His Highness." From start to finish, his tone was extremely vile. If others didn't offend me, I wouldn't offend them. Naturally, I would be the one going against him.

"That old fox from the Xue family is preparing to send my cousin to the palace to please my second brother." His face bloomed into a big smile. With his relaxed brows, brilliant eyes, and red lips and white teeth, I couldn't help but take in a deep breath. This man was truly beautiful in his elegance.

So the Xue Clan was planning to send Miss Xue to the palace. Then it was no wonder that they prepared such a rich dowry. The Xue Clan's attitude towards King Qi could be said to be that they wanted to rope him in. This could be seen from their meticulous care of the princess. They didn't want to offend King Qi, but they were secretly preparing to send their daughter to the palace.

Shopkeeper Xiao walked to King Qi's side and whispered something. I only heard the words, "It's getting late." Presumably, he was reminding King Qi to cut to the chase. I smiled inwardly.

"I understand what Your Highness wants me to do." King Qi slightly raised his eyebrows, he was only thinking of me entering the Xue Clan to find out the whereabouts of the testamentary edict. However, this was easier said than done. How could something that involved the lives of his family be easily investigated?

"As long as you know!" King Qi raised his foot, preparing to leave.

"Since I've agreed to His Highness's request, shouldn't His Royal Highness have something to do with me?" I raised my voice, and King Qi stopped and stood there for a moment, looking at me.

"I guarantee that your store will get more and more rich every day."

"Your Highness knows that what I want is not money. Otherwise, I would not have opened this shop here."

"Then what do you want?" King Qi returned to the front of the tent. His large figure blocked the light in front of me. Lu Ping followed closely behind me, fearing that something might have happened to me.

"My father has an outer room." He raised his eyebrows, but didn't comment. It seemed like he already knew about it. "Thinking about it, our family's every move has always been monitored by others, it really makes one's scalp tingle." I want to ask King Qi to help me take care of them, "Ning said. His bright eyes could be seen through the veil, and one could imagine his expression.

"Good!" A cheerful voice called out, "I didn't think that Miss Lu would have a hobby of keeping outer rooms for others!" He chuckled softly.

"Your Highness, take care!" Not wanting to waste any more words with him, I bent down and bowed. King Qi turned around with a cold snort and walked away with his hands behind his back. Manager Xiao kept wiping his sweat as he hurriedly bowed to me before following King Qi.

"Miss, are you alright?" She helped me back to the couch. His feet were sore from standing for too long.

"I'm fine!" I pinched my leg, feeling really tired.

When I looked up, someone was already standing in the middle of the hall outside the tent. I noticed that he was busy bowing and beating.

"Miss!" The man had a simple and honest smile on his face. His stature was not very tall, but he was extremely sturdy. His protruding stomach pulled his clothes flat, giving him a very loyal and honest appearance.

"Miss, this is the account that was paid for the repairs." The man reached into his pocket and pulled out the account book. He handed it over and then remembered that I was sitting in a faraway tent. The man was stunned for a moment. He used his other hand to support the hat on his head. Originally, if he didn't lift the hat, it would have been the right move. When he pulled the hat away, both Lu Ping and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Manager Sun, quickly get up." I poked Lu Ping, and she chuckled as she went to pick up the account book in Manager Sun's hands. Through the gaps in the account book, I saw Manager Sun wiping the sweat off his face with his sleeve.

The words on the account book were correct: entry, money, when and where. Every silver building remembered this clearly because the abacus was outside. With a rough glance, he gave it to Lu Ping. She then took it and sent it outside.

"Miss, you know how to calculate?" The man looked quite surprised.

"Why do you ask?" I was confused.

"Then why did Miss send the account book back?"

"I roughly calculated that it should be correct."

The man then handed the account book over. "Please check carefully little miss. This little miss will keep it. I also have a copy that's exactly the same. I can use it to check with little miss at the end of the year." Some of my cheeks are burning. I thought it would be easy to open a shop, but I didn't expect there to be so many doors in it, and I made two or three mistakes.

Lu Ping walked forward to receive the account book, but didn't hand it over to me. She only took it.

"Thank you for your guidance, mister." I stood up and blessed myself. Manager Sun quickly lowered his body and said, "Miss is too polite." After that, he slowly paced back and forth.

After Manager Sun left the room, Lu Ping smiled at me while holding the account book. "You little hoof!" I reached out to scratch her itch, and she ran away laughing.

"It's not good for the lady to be like this!" I don't know when Mother Song came in, but when she saw me and Lu Ping frowning, she scolded, "Miss has already been out for half a day, it's about time to go back." After all, Grandmother had sent me to watch over her. Although she was honest and honest, she wouldn't allow me to do anything out of line.

"Mom is right." I nodded and straightened my clothes. "Grandmother should be worried now that I've been out for so long."
