Chapter 325 Xie Ying Shifts the Blame
Chapter 325 Xie Ying Shifts the Blame
Xie Xiu looked at Jiang Er with disdain: You're like this, and you still want to be Yingying's godfather?
But before he could get over it, the eldest princess angrily scolded him, "Jiang Er! What's wrong with you?
Even if Yingying wants to be her godfather, it's not your turn! It's getting late, go back quickly and don't bully Xie Xiu! "
Jiang Er pouted in frustration: "..."
He knew that there would be many people who wanted to compete with him!
I didn’t expect that even the princess would jump out!
In the end, he left feeling aggrieved, but as soon as he walked out of the Princess's Mansion, he put his hands on his hips proudly.
It is impossible to give up. If Xie Xiu doesn't agree, he will find a way from Yingying!
As long as he can please Yingying and let that girl call him godfather, I don’t believe that the princess can stop him!
Hahahaha, he is really smart!
Such a small doll should be easy to please, right?
It seems that his little niece is very easy to coax and can be coaxed by giving her some food.
Jiang Er thought about this and walked away with full confidence, striding with his head held high and his steps moving with the wind.
Xie Xiu took his daughter home.
Just holding Xie Ying in his arms, he always felt that something was wrong.
Xie Xiu looked at his daughter suspiciously. Xie Ying opened her eyes wide and looked at him innocently.
Xie Xiu sniffed the scent on Xie Ying's clothes again and slowly narrowed his eyes: "Yingying, have you eaten?"
Xie Ying pouted in dissatisfaction and directly shifted the blame: [I didn't eat it, it was Situ Yuan who ate it, and he refused to share it with me. It's really too much!]
Xie Xiu: “…”
He suspected that his little daughter was lying, but he had no evidence!
After thinking about it, he reached out and touched Xie Ying's belly again.
Xie Ying tried hard to pull it in.
She has already used her wood-based abilities to aid digestion, so she shouldn't be discovered, right?
Xie Xiu noticed her guilty little movements and twitched his lips speechlessly: "..."
Silly girl, do you know what it means to confess without being asked?
However, he did not expose Xie Ying. He just secretly made up his mind to pay attention to Xie Ying's situation and see if she could digest it.
If she has indigestion, I won’t let her eat anything else.
Seeing that he didn't seem to notice, Xie Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, Xie Xiu kept paying attention to Xie Ying. As a result, Xie Ying did not show even the slightest discomfort until she fell asleep at night.
Xie Xiu didn't know what she had eaten, but he guessed that Xie Ying's body must be somewhat extraordinary and different from that of ordinary children.
He secretly hid this matter in his heart, intending not to tell anyone, lest the news leak out and bring disaster to Xie Ying.
As for Xie Ying secretly adding more food to Situ Yuan's meal, he pretended not to know.
It is difficult to hide the fact that children are having extra snacks at home from the servants.
It’s different on Situ Yuan’s side. The rules in the Princess’ Mansion are much stricter, and Situ Yuan can be made to take the blame.
After waking up, Xie Xiu went to see his daughter again. Seeing that Xie Ying was sleeping like a pig and didn't feel any discomfort, he was completely relieved.
After breakfast, he went to the Imperial College as usual.
The eldest princess personally escorted Situ Yuan and Xie Tang into the palace, and went to see Emperor Taihe and told him about Xie Xiu's proposal.
After hearing this, Emperor Taihe was indeed delighted: "Hearing what you said, Xie Xiu is indeed a useful person."
Because Xie Xiu and Xie Yun broke off their relationship, many people in the court and the country were dissatisfied with it.
Emperor Taihe also felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Xie Xiu passed the imperial examination and took out another 100,000 taels of silver to buy land.
Although he got a great bargain by digging out coal from the ground.
But Xie Xiu wanted to grow medicinal herbs and was willing to let Jiang Er grow them with him, which could be considered as a kind and loyal person.
After all, it was Xie Yun, the father, who was cruel first. It was understandable that Xie Xiu was unwilling to continue to recognize the thief as his father because of his mother's tragic death.
Emperor Taihe then said, "This arrangement is quite benevolent and righteous, so let it be.
If retired soldiers are willing to come and work, those with disabilities should not be allowed to work in the mines, but should be assigned to patrol and guard the mines."
The princess agreed with a smile and said, "We have discussed that the workers who work in the mines will be paid more than those who don't.
If an accident occurs in the mine, the company will provide compensation and arrange for their family members to find work, so that their families will not lose their livelihood."
When Emperor Taihe heard this, he felt even happier.
He knew that once this news got out, it would surely be praised by the world.
The eldest princess is making him proud!
As expected, a biological sister is different from outsiders. In the past, he had been very honored and favored by the Chen family, but how did those people treat him?
It would have been fine if Chen Shou had faked his own death and escaped, but he actually set fire to the house!
If the rescue had not been timely, who knows how many people would have been burned to death!
It's worse than a beast!
It’s a pity that Chen Shou escaped and his whereabouts are unknown now, otherwise he would have cut that man into pieces to relieve his hatred!
Seeing his grim expression, the princess stood aside quietly, not disturbing him. After he calmed down, she took out the name she had chosen yesterday and asked Emperor Taihe to give it to him.
Emperor Taihe was delighted and wrote a piece of calligraphy as the future signboard of Taiping Coal Mine Company.
Not only that, he also waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about the plaque. I have someone make it and send it to you."
The princess was even happier now. She asked Emperor Taihe to write another vertical word "Taiping". After thanking him, she couldn't wait to leave the palace and prepare to hold a meeting with future shareholders.
Ever since coal was dug out of the ground, many royal relatives and officials’ wives have come to pay their respects and want to buy shares.
Although she did not agree directly, she did not refuse directly either. She only told them the minimum investment amount, let them consider it themselves, and then sent them back.
Now that everything is almost ready, it's time for her to meet these people and see how much money they are willing to give.
In order to save time, the eldest princess directly sent someone to notify the female relatives who had previously contacted her.
Those who want to buy shares can come directly to the Princess's Mansion to discuss. If they change their minds, they don't need to come.
Finally, everyone came.
These people dared to approach the eldest princess directly, so they must be of high status.
The eldest princess had previously told them that each share would be paid one thousand taels. Although the amount was not small, these people could afford it.
After everyone arrived, the eldest princess explained the recruitment requirements, employee benefits, including the canteen and dormitory matters, and asked these people to consider whether they still wanted to buy shares.
She reminded him, “I didn’t open this company to make money, but just to benefit the people, so the net profit is likely not high.
So you have to think carefully. Don't invest money now and then complain that the income is too little or even lose money in the future.
If something happens to the miners, the company will provide them with compensation and ensure they have enough food to eat every day.
If you are reluctant to part with this money, it is better to stop now to avoid regrets in the future."
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed.
However, I still chose to pay money to buy shares.
The princess looked at the silver they took out and began to think: As expected, most people are still unwilling to invest more. But this is also good, if they invest more, won't they get a bargain for nothing?
