Old lady Xiang and Xiang Mingli wondered why this doll was still related to Changyang Palace? Could it be that this doll had a big background?
"Steward, please order someone to go to the palace in Changyang to pick you up," said Marquis Xiang Ming.
"yes."
"Boss, how long will you stay when you return home this time? Mom asked the servants to prepare some supplies." asked the old lady.
"The border is very stable. There is nothing major. It will take about half a year to go back." Xiang Minghou had a eldest daughter, so he had to take leave for half a year to spend time with his daughter.
The old lady Xiang was stunned: "Half...half a year? Can the Emperor agree?"
"I am destined to have no children in my life. I finally have a daughter who has been living abroad for so many years. If the emperor is not considerate, even if I resign, I will spend more time with my daughter." Xiang Minghou went through life and death for Beili.
I haven't had a break for more than ten years. Even when I return to Beijing, I have to finish my official business and rush back to the border.
When the old lady Xiang heard about her resignation, she immediately panicked and reprimanded: "A man should put state affairs first. The emperor values you so much. If you resign for a baby, wouldn't you be living up to the emperor's expectations?"
"Mom, you don't understand, and those who have many children don't understand even more. You don't have to worry about my affairs. If you have time to spare, you should teach me more principles, make less friends, and find something serious to do."
After Xiang Minghou finished speaking, he added without waiting to the old lady: "My son has been running all the way and hasn't slept for several days, so he went to rest first."
The old lady looked very ugly.
"Mom, eldest brother will be at home for half a year." Xiang Mingli was anxious.
"This is the general's residence. He is a general. What's wrong with staying here for half a year? Just keep some words in your heart." Xiang old lady turned around and scolded.
"But... my eldest brother is at home, and I feel uncomfortable living there." Xiang Mingli has been afraid of this brother since he was a child, and she always feels uncomfortable living with him.
"Are you moving out?" Old lady Xiang rolled her eyes angrily.
Xiang Mingli immediately shook his head: "Why should I move out?"
"If you don't want to, just bear with it, it won't be more than half a year." The old lady sighed in her heart.
She used to like her eldest son very much, but he would never have an heir in this life.
It's such a serious matter that a man can't have children. Fortunately, she has two sons, and all her hopes for success are pinned on her second son.
Xiang Mingli groaned, since he moved into the General's Mansion five years ago, Xiang Minghou seemed to have only come back once every three years, and he only stayed for three days.
Moreover, three days after returning home, so many aunts appeared, and they were all blooming in the house, which made people itchy.
Although I dare not move my hands and look at it, it is pleasing to the eye, but now the thought of seeing Xiang Minghou all day long makes my whole body feel as uncomfortable as a thorn.
"It's a good thing that eldest brother has a daughter." Wang, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.
"So what if she is really her biological child? She is her daughter after all. In the future, Xiang General's Mansion will have to rely on Si Yan." Old Mrs. Xiang gave them a shot.
No matter how favored a daughter is when she grows up, she will eventually get married, and a man will need to inherit the family business.
Mrs. Wang smiled when she heard this. The matter of adopting Si Yan to her eldest brother must be settled early. Otherwise, who knows whether there will be an illegitimate child in the future?
"That's right, our Si Yan is also expected to be a high official in the future." Xiang Mingli said proudly, having a son is enough for him!
"Remember to meet the girl tomorrow and prepare some gifts. Don't worry about it. Let's go." The old lady Xiang felt tired and was supported by the maid as she left.
"Yes, mother, please walk slowly." Mrs. Wang saluted.
Xiang Mingli snorted, threw up his sleeves and left quickly.
