My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

on the way back.

The atmosphere inside the carriage was extremely quiet.

Jiang Xiaobai sat to one side, and Tang Ningshuang sat opposite him.

The eldest princess sat to the side of the two.

During this time, Jiang Xiaobai looked at the Eldest Princess several times.

But... because the princess was wearing a bamboo hat, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't see the woman's expression.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaobai and Tang Ningshuang could only stare at each other in silence.

But as she looked, Tang Ningshuang's lips suddenly twitched, and then she turned her head to look out the window.

If she continued watching like this, even with her aloof nature, she might start laughing.

Yes, she could see Jiang Xiaobai's distress and helplessness.

But Jiang Xiaobai is simply asking for trouble!

This guy's teasing has backfired... and now... the princess has actually come back with him.

Let's see how Jiang Xiaobai handles this situation.

Jiang Xiaobai rubbed his forehead and glanced at the princess next to him again out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing the woman sitting there silently, her expression of helplessness deepened.

But no matter how much Jiang Xiaobai thought about it, he still couldn't figure out what this woman wanted to do by following him back to the Marquis's mansion.

No matter what this woman wants to do, he has to find a way to get rid of her.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai cleared his throat and leaned to the side.

Then, to Tang Ningshuang's astonishment, he placed one leg on top of the princess's legs.

Tang Ningshuang's mouth opened slightly when she saw this scene.

It has to be said, Jiang Xiaobai is really bold.

Is that how you put your leg up like that?

This is far more serious than having the princess massage your shoulders.

Jiang Xiaobai ignored Tang Ningshuang's expression, looked at the princess, and patted his leg, his meaning very clear.

Come on, give me a leg massage!

The princess gently pursed her red lips, then began to massage Jiang Xiaobai's legs.

But at this moment, the beautiful eyes beneath the straw hat held a hint of anger.

You bastard Jiang Xiaobai!

You really enjoy bossing people around, don't you!

Okay, then I'll give it to you!

With gritted teeth, the princess used all her strength to pinch Jiang Xiaobai's leg hard.

That's right. Since she's deaf and mute now, even if Jiang Xiaobai cries out in pain, she can pretend not to hear him.

She believed that if she was ruthless enough this time, Jiang Xiaobai wouldn't dare let her pinch him again!

Although Jiang Xiaobai gasped in shock, he stubbornly remained silent.

That's right, he absolutely cannot back down.

In his view, as long as he kept bothering this woman, she would eventually lose patience and leave on her own.

And so, an extremely strange scene unfolded inside the carriage.

The princess gritted her teeth and pressed down, even using all her strength...

Even though Jiang Xiaobai was in so much pain that he was grimacing, he stubbornly gritted his teeth and didn't utter a sound.

As for Tang Ningshuang, her gaze remained fixed outside the entire time.

That's right, this has nothing to do with her!

Time passed little by little.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped outside the Zhenbei Marquis's residence.

Jiang Xiaobai's legs were trembling slightly when he got out of the car.

Of course... the princess's hands, tucked into her sleeves, were also moving slightly.

Clearly, her hands were a little sore from massaging Jiang Xiaobai's legs the whole way.

Tang Ningshuang noticed this and secretly shook her head.

What are these two up to?

"Phew, I'm finally home!"

Jiang Xiaobai stretched his legs and said with a wry smile.

If this continues, his legs... will probably be ruined by this princess.

Left with no other choice, Jiang Xiaobai led Tang Ningshuang and the Princess toward the Marquis's residence.

As soon as Jiang Xiaobai entered the Marquis's residence, he saw Zhang Xinnian leading people carrying wine and drinks out.

"Your Highness!"

When Zhang Xinnian saw Jiang Xiaobai, his eyes lit up immediately, and he bowed respectfully.

"Hmm, how did it go today?"

Jiang Xiaobai asked.

"Hey, the Crown Prince is famous!"

Zhang Xinnian exclaimed excitedly, "Our liquor is really popular!"

"Many restaurants are already actively seeking cooperation with us, even before we've started distributing our products!"

"The restaurants that previously stocked our products sent someone early this morning to urge us to increase the quantity!"

"Right now, we simply can't keep up with demand!"

"Great, great!!"

Jiang Xiaobai responded with a smile, showing little surprise.

The wine he brews using modern techniques is not only delicious, but also affordable.

Once the restaurants ahead of us start selling out, the news will naturally spread.

Restaurants that follow will also come to them, thus creating a virtuous cycle.

"Keep paving!"

Jiang Xiaobai said, "We'll book as many restaurants in the capital, big and small, as we can eat!"

"yes!"

Zhang Xinnian nodded excitedly, and was about to leave with his men when he suddenly remembered something: "Oh, right, Your Highness!"

"The Marquis instructed that you should go see him after you return!"

"good!"

Jiang Xiaobai responded and led Tang Ningshuang and the Princess towards the main hall.

Zhang Xinnian stood there, intending to leave, but then noticed the figure of the Eldest Princess.

"Hmm...this woman looks familiar!"

Zhang Xinnian muttered something to himself and scratched his head in confusion.

But he didn't think much of it in the end and continued to call people to move the wine.

the other side.

Jiang Xiaobai led the two to the main hall of the Marquis's mansion.

As soon as Jiang Xiaobai entered, he saw Jiang Jingcheng sitting in the main seat.

Standing next to Jiang Jingcheng was a man in purple.

The man looked to be in his thirties and had a tall, upright figure.

Upon seeing them enter, the man in purple cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Jiang Jingcheng: "Senior brother, then I shall take my leave!"

"Um!"

Jiang Jingcheng nodded: "Thank you for making this trip, Junior Brother!"

The man in purple smiled, shook his head, and turned to walk outside.

When the man passed by Jiang Xiaobai, he glanced at it and smiled in acknowledgment.

Although Jiang Xiaobai was puzzled, he nodded slightly.

Watching the man in purple walk away, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Jiang Jingcheng and asked, "Father, who is this?"

That's right, I searched through my entire memory but couldn't find any recollection of this person.

This is clearly the first time I've seen this.

"Oh, he's one of my junior brothers from the Dragon Tiger Sect!"

Jiang Jingcheng offered a casual explanation, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, sit down and let's talk!"

Jiang Xiaobai responded and sat down beside him.

Tang Ningshuang stood to one side, while the Eldest Princess stood quietly behind Jiang Xiaobai.

Just as Jiang Jingcheng was about to speak, he noticed the eldest princess.

Indeed, with the princess's attire, it was hard not to attract his attention.

"Huh!"

Jiang Jingcheng raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at Jiang Xiaobai, asking, "Xiaobai, who is this?"

"Oh, just a little maid!"

Jiang Xiaobai explained, "It was a gift from the little princess; it belonged to a deaf-mute!"

"Was it a gift from the little princess, and to a deaf-mute person?"

Jiang Jingcheng was surprised at first, then said, "Well, the little princess is fine!"

"As long as it's not a gift from the eldest princess..."
