According to Xiao Guogong's original intention, his daughter should not bother with those things at all.

No matter who has practiced riding and archery for so many years, it is normal for him to like to lead troops in war.

But he had to say that cavalry was too expensive.

Even the emperor, who was rich all over the world, felt distressed for several days every time he mentioned the money spent on cavalry.

Moreover, forming your own cavalry is really a matter of putting in effort and money but not getting any benefits.

Which emperor would like to have a cavalry running on his territory that cannot be commanded at all?

However, things have reached this point, and Xi'er has a stubborn temper, so it is impossible to dissuade her.

Xiao Guogong made a quick calculation in his mind.

If you want to help your daughter realize her wish, you can't get it without two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Of course he has money, but just using it to build that unnecessary cavalry team is no different from wasting money.

No, it's even worse than nothing.

You can even look at things and hear noises while doing nothing, but this thing might even cause a lot of trouble.

But he had been too full of words before. If he didn't take some practical actions, the relationship between Xi'er and him might be difficult to mend in the future.

He weighed it over and over in his mind, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Bi'er, you know the situation of being a father. All his salary for so many years has been handed over to the public, and the money in hand is limited.

But seeing you so anxious makes my father feel very sad.

That’s all right, I’ll give you two hundred thousand taels of silver for my father, and you go and get all the necessary items first.”

Xiao Bi was stunned.

Then he quickly waved his hand: "No, no, it's not that urgent.

The third brother-in-law has promised me that he will arrange for someone to take good care of the five thousand horses for me..."

Xiao Guogong said: "Father or your third brother-in-law, who will marry you?"

Xiao Bi drooped her head.

Isn’t this nonsense? Of course the third brother-in-law is closer than you!

Duke Xiao Guogong sighed, stood up, walked to the bookshelf, and took down a very thick book.

He opened the book, took out a stack of banknotes from the middle and counted out twenty.

"Xiaojiu, your third brother-in-law doesn't have much support, so it's not easy for him to get to where he is today.

Besides, he and your third sister are still young, and there will be many ways to spend money in the future, so it’s better that we don’t bother them less.”

After saying that, he put the book back to its original place, walked over and put the banknote into Xiao Bi's hand.

"Xiaojiu thanked his father."

Xiao Bi resisted the urge to be overjoyed, stood up and gave Duke Xiao a big salute.

She could see clearly just now that there was about half of her father's stack of banknotes left.

In other words, I successfully plundered half of his money today.

Keep up the good work, Xiao Xiaojiu, the remaining banknotes are already waving to you!

Seeing that her eye circles were a little red, Xiao Guogong patted her hand: "You will get haircut soon. You must not act like before.

It's good to be like today. My daughter is noble and naturally beautiful, and she will definitely find a good husband."

Xiao Bi secretly sneered.

Is he a "good" husband like you?

It’s better to skip it!

If I hadn't married a scumbag like you, how could my mother have ended up like that?

Seeing her lowering her head and saying nothing, Xiao Guogong thought she was ashamed, and felt even more happy.

Sure enough, as you age, even the wildest girl can become obedient.

Xiao Bi put the banknote away: "It's getting late. My father drank again today. It's better to rest early. My daughter has resigned."

Xiao Guogong pointed at the Bogu rack: "Don't you like those things and don't plan to have them anymore?"

Xiao Bi was a little embarrassed: "These are my father's beloved things. I have already taken so much money from you. If I continue... wouldn't it be a bit too greedy?"

Xiao Guogong felt that his head was getting more and more dizzy, and he laughed loudly: "Not all of my father's things belong to you. It's rare that they can get into my eyes. How can you call it greedy?"

After that, he walked over, opened the door, and called a servant in.

"You arrange a few people to take these..." He pointed to the Bogu Shelf: "Send all of these to Souchi Garden."

The servant didn't dare to say anything, so he immediately went to find more than a dozen people, and soon the Bogu rack was emptied.

Watching his daughter leave, Xiao Guogong lay back down again, feeling indescribably proud in his heart.

His children are not many, but each one is more promising than the last.

Needless to say, Chan'er, with a harmonious husband and wife, a son and a daughter, and a steady and dignified behavior, will definitely be able to support the Xiao family.

Although Bi'er's status in this life is not as good as that of Heng'er, this child has a straightforward temper and has no ill intentions, so he will definitely have an easier life than Heng'er...

Just as I was lost in thought, there was a knock on the door.

Xiao Guogong opened his eyes impatiently: "Come in!"

"My lord..." Xin Su opened the study door and walked in with small steps.

Seeing her holding a tray in her hand, Xiao Guogong relaxed his brows and said, "It's so late and you haven't rested yet?"

"Oh my God -" Xin Su didn't bother to talk to him, put the tray on the table and walked quickly to the ancient bookshelf.

"My lord, was there a thief in this house? Why are all the good things gone?"

Duke Xiao's brows furrowed again: "What are you talking about? I am a dignified Duke of Ding. How can it be that little thieves can come in and out at will?"

Xin Su said bitterly: "I said the wrong thing in a moment of impatience... But with so many things, you can't just run away by yourself, right?"

Xiao Guogong said: "Bi'er said she liked those things, so I sent them to Souchi Garden."

Xin Su almost screamed.

Although the ornaments in the Duke's study are valuable, they are not suitable for placing in a little girl's room.

Xiao Bi must have gotten wind of it, so she took action in advance!

How abominable!

She is a princess who lacks everything and even has a fiefdom, but she is so fussy about everything.

If she continues to scheme like this, what else can they, mother and daughter, get out of it, and how can Chan'er get married in such a grand way?

After being tossed by her like this, Xiao Guogong's head became much clearer than before.

"They're just some decorations. I'll just go to the warehouse tomorrow to pick some."

Xin Su dared not say anything in anger, so he could only respond casually.

She walked back to the table, picked up the tray and said, "I heard that you were a little drunk today, so I cooked some sobering soup with my own hands."

"Leave it alone, I'll drink it later." Xiao Guogong waved his hand and found a chair to sit down.

"Su Niang came here so late just to give you hangover soup, right?"

Xin Su pursed her lips and said, "If you insist on thinking this way, I will chat with you for a while."

She sat down next to Xiao Guogong, sighed and said: "My sister-in-law and I have taken a fancy to a farm, which is quite suitable for Chan'er's dowry."

Xiao Guogong raised his eyebrows: "Since it's suitable, I'll buy it. Why are you sighing?"

Xin Su said: "Of course I want to buy it right away. The farmland is fertile and there is a river nearby. Everything is going well.
