Traveled through time and space to become a widow, and became rich with her three children

Chapter 111 Don’t tell others

Xu Huaishui asked Madam Xu to get closer to Jin Yuyao when she had time to see if there was any useful information.

Mrs. Xu agreed.

As the two were talking, two children's voices rang out from outside: "Daddy, Mom and brother are clamoring to find you."

The two of them stopped talking about the previous topic.

Xu Huaishui regained his usual smile and watched a boy and a girl come in through the door, followed by a maid.

"Ying'er, Cong'er, why are you here?"

The two children are his daughter Xu Ying and son Xu Cong.

The eldest daughter is twelve years old this year, and the son is five years old. Xu Ying said, "Daddy and brother won't sleep tonight and insisted on coming to see you."

After Xu Cong came in, he threw himself into Mrs. Xu's arms.

She said coquettishly: "Mom, I want to be with you."

Xu Huaishui looked at his two children and smiled unconsciously: "Then let him stay here. Ying'er, you go back and get some rest first."

Xu Ying nodded and went out with the maid.

Xu Cong snuggled in Mrs. Xu's arms.

Xu Huaishui looked at him and said, "Cong'er, you are not a child anymore. Look at how sensible your sister is. When she was your age, she never wanted your mother to accompany her.

You are a boy and it’s time for you to be independent.”

Xu Cong pouted and said, "Daddy's food tonight is terrible. I want to eat braised pork, sweet and sour fish, and pork elbow."

Mrs. Xu patiently explained, "Cong'er, you can't do that now. I'll make you something delicious after those people leave in a few days."

Xu Cong was puzzled and asked, "Mom, our family has so much money, why are we not well dressed, not well housed, and even not well fed these past two days?"

When Madam Xu heard the child's words, she quickly covered his mouth and said, "Little Ancestor, don't say anything nonsense, okay? How did you know that?"

Xu Huaishui looked at Xu Cong and his face darkened: "Cong'er, our family has always been like this, why do you say that?"

Xu Cong was so frightened by Xu Huaishui's loud voice that he shrank into Mrs. Xu's arms.

Xu Huaishui looked at him and stood up, pressing him step by step: "Cong'er, how did you know? Tell daddy quickly."

Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Cong's frightened expression and said, "Ah Shui, wait a minute. You see, Cong'er is frightened. Let me ask him."

Xu Huaishui then turned his head away.

Madam Xu patiently coaxed, "Cong'er, can you tell me what's going on? How come I don't know how rich our family is?"

Under Mrs. Xu's gentle persuasion, Xu Cong finally said, "How could you not know, mother? I woke up that night and saw that no one was in the room. I was curious about where mother had gone, and then I saw a place where mother was."

Xu Huaishu looked at Mrs. Xu in shock.

Xu Huaishui pulled Xu Cong to his side and squatted down and said patiently: "Cong'er, I'll leave this for you when you grow up. Remember not to tell anyone about this matter again, okay?

Otherwise, the money will be yours, and if others find out, they will come and rob you."

Xu Cong said: "I don't want this. He is obviously our family member. I won't tell anyone else about it in the future."

Xu Huaishui said, "Yes, then you must not tell anyone from now on, okay?"

Xu Cong nodded.

Xu Huaishui called in the maid who was taking care of Xu Cong and asked her to take Xu Cong downstairs to rest.

Although Xu Cong was reluctant, he still followed the maid reluctantly after seeing his father's expression.

Xu Huaishui watched the maid close the door.

Xu Huaishui turned to look at Madam Xu and said reproachfully, "How could you be so careless?"

Mrs. Xu explained, "It should be that the child was asleep that night and we went together. Who would have thought that Cong'er usually sleeps through the night and doesn't wake up, but who would have thought that he would actually wake up that day."

Xu Huaishui said, "Be careful next time. I'm going to the study first."

Mrs. Xu watched him walk away and couldn't help but say, "Didn't you say that day that we should go and take a look? Now you blame me."

At this time, a man in black quietly entered Xu Huaishui's house, and no one noticed him under the cover of darkness.

The man went straight to the courtyard where Prince An lived.

Wang Jingshan opened the door immediately after hearing the voice. When the man came in and saw Prince An, he knelt on one knee and saluted: "Your Majesty."

King An was very happy to see Zhan Feng coming: "Zhan Feng, you are finally here."

Zhan Feng asked in confusion, "How did you get to live in Xu Huaishui's house, my Lord?"

Wang Jingshan recounted what happened when he entered the county town.

Zhan Feng was furious when he heard this: "I'm going to kill that bastard official Xu Huaishui."

Prince An stopped him and said, "Stop! Xu Huaishui cannot be killed yet. If you kill him now, my fifth brother and I will have to face him head-on. Now is not the time."

Prince An looked at the three of them and said, "Everyone is here now. What should we do tomorrow? Yuyao, tell me your plan for dealing with the locusts."

Jin Yuyao explained all her methods.

Prince An nodded. "Very detailed and comprehensive, indeed. It all depends on what Xu Huaishui will do tomorrow. Zhan Feng, send a message to Li Feng asking him to find the Yunzhou prefect and bring his men as soon as possible."

"Yes"

Zhan Feng heard this and went out to pass on the message.

Wang Jingshan and Jin Yuyao said goodbye and returned to their rooms.

The two returned to the room.

Jin Yuyao looked around and found that there was no couch in the room. Although she was reluctant, she couldn't stay awake all night. She couldn't bear it.

The two of them lay in bed, and Wang Jingshan said, "If I snore at night, it might be better if you push me."

Jin Yuyao nodded.

Jin Yuyao was afraid of embarrassment, so she turned around and faced Wang Jingshan with her back.

Maybe he was tired these days, and soon he heard snoring next to him.

Jin Yuyao thought she would not be able to sleep after changing the place, but unexpectedly she fell asleep very quickly.

She slept until dawn. When Jin Yuyao opened her eyes and saw that it was daylight, she quickly got up and saw that Wang Jingshan was already washing up.

Jin Yuyao complained, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

Wang Jingshan said, "I just woke up too. I was about to call you when you woke up."

Jin Yuyao got up and washed up. Wang Jingshan was already waiting for her in the yard.

As soon as he arrived in the yard, he saw that Prince An's room door had just opened.

When Prince An came out, the three of them went out of the yard and saw Xu Huaishui already waiting outside.

Xu Huaishui smiled until his eyes became slits and said, "Your Highness, breakfast is ready. Let's go eat."

Prince An nodded, and the few of them came to the place where they had dinner yesterday.

Breakfast was even lighter, a plate of green vegetables, black flour steamed buns and a few bowls of porridge.

The difference is that there are two children sitting at the dinner table.

Xu Huaishui introduced, "Xu Ying and Xu Cong, why don't you quickly pay your respects to the prince?"

The two children bowed and the King asked them to sit down. He asked, "The children are growing up. Are you out of food in your house? Is it okay to feed them this every day?"
