Seeing that the elders in his mind could not give any useful suggestions, Zhu Gaoshuo kept sighing.

"Am I destined to have no father-in-law?"

Shaking his head, he could only take one step at a time.

Maybe there will be a chance to save my father-in-law in the future!

After getting off the carriage, Zhu Gaoshuo originally planned to go back to his room, but after thinking about it, he changed his mind.

"Liang An, prepare some gifts, I want to visit those people!"

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Liang An knew in his heart who his prince was talking about.

After all, those were the only ones who walked out of the palace with bloody butts just now.

Therefore, he quickly nodded and agreed, and then went down to prepare the gifts.

Fortunately, Prince Yan's Mansion is not as poor as before!

Just some precious medicinal materials such as ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. can fill a small room!

They were all given by those merchants!

There are merchants who want to get a share of the city's construction, and there are also merchants who want to purchase the colored glaze bracelets from Prince Yan's Mansion.

Even now, although the palace collects local specialties less often, there are definitely a lot of things sent!

About half an hour later, the invitations were sent out and the gifts were prepared.

Zhu Gaoshuo got on the carriage again and headed to the first stop.

Prince Zhao's Mansion!

After learning that his beloved fourth brother was coming to visit him.

The third child, Zhu Gaosui, applied the medicine and waited for the arrival of his fourth brother with a smile on his face.

Now that Prince Yan’s palace is rich, almost everyone in the world knows about it!

When my fourth brother comes to visit, he will definitely not give him anything cheap.

Therefore, when someone came to tell him that Zhu Gaoshuo's carriage was already less than 200 meters away from Prince Zhao's Mansion.

Zhu Gaosui got up from the bed and rushed towards the door.

With that look, people who didn’t know better would have thought he was trying to rob something!

When he came to the door panting, Zhu Gaoshuo's carriage had just stopped.

"Fourth brother, you are finally here. It's so hard to make my brother wait!"

Before Zhu Gaoshuo got out of the car, the youngest Zhu Gaosui came up to him with a smile.

Seeing him panting, Zhu Gaoshuo felt a little helpless.

He quickly said: "Third brother, if you are feeling ill, please stop exercising strenuously!"

He knew in his heart that the third child must have run from the backyard to the gate at once. Otherwise, how could he be so tired?

When Zhu Gaosui, the third child over there, heard this, he waved his hand with a smile.

"Fourth brother, third brother only got a little injury on his butt, it's nothing serious. Besides, you are my fourth brother. When you come, I will definitely greet you at the door!"

Of course, while talking, the third child did not forget to pull Zhu Gaoshuo into the main hall.

Originally, he wanted to sit down and chat with Zhu Gaoshuo over tea, but as soon as his butt touched the chair, he almost jumped up in pain.

In the end, I could only stand there helplessly.

Seeing him like this, Zhu Gaoshuo was not prepared to laugh at him.

He just asked seriously: "Third brother, New Year's Eve is coming soon. How are you preparing the gifts for the old man?"

After all, there are still more than twenty days until New Year's Eve, and Zhu Gaoshuo also wants to find out what gifts the brothers have prepared for the old man.

He might as well have made some preparations in advance!

According to the habits of previous years, it is naturally impossible for him to prepare!

But things are different now.

It seemed that the old man was a little too enthusiastic about him!

He estimated that the old man would definitely invite him.

So it’s not a good idea to go to the first Lao Zhu’s New Year’s Eve banquet empty-handed!

On the other side, Zhu Gaosui couldn't help being stunned when he saw him asking this question.

But soon, he felt a trace of guilt in his heart!

He felt that he could not live up to the fourth child!

In all these years, I have never reminded the old man about letting the fourth child attend the New Year's Eve banquet.

Therefore, he quickly and thoughtfully said: "Fourth, I don't need to prepare much for the old man. Just prepare a few gifts, but the most important thing is that this is enough!"

As he spoke, he rubbed his fingers at Zhu Gaoshuo.

Although the eldest son is the poorest in Lao Zhu's family, the stingiest one is still the old man.

As for the reason, everyone in the family knows it.

The old man is saving military supplies for the Northern Expedition!

Although this is just a drop in the bucket, the old man feels that after saving, there will always be something!

So when he sees an opportunity to take money, his eyes will definitely light up.

It is precisely because of this that the brothers have decided that when they show up, they will only give money and not say goodbye!

Zhu Gaoshuo on the side couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.

"Third brother, are you sure?"

Although these words were questioning the third child Zhu Gaosui, the other party was not angry.

After all, Zhu Gaoshuo has never attended a New Year's Eve banquet before, so I don't know if it's normal.

So he quickly patted his chest and said: "Fourth brother, you are right to listen to my brother. The old man will definitely be happy!"

Seeing him like this, although Zhu Gaoshuo was still a little suspicious, he didn't say it directly.

He just nodded seriously to show that he had taken it to heart.

But on the occasion of parting, when Zhu Gaoshuo asked Liang An to give the gift to the third child.

The other party gave another instruction.

"Fourth brother, remember, the more of these things, the better!"

The brothers are each planning to give one hundred thousand taels as a gift to the old man.

So he doesn’t want the fourth child to be too different!

On the other hand, Zhu Gaoshuo naturally didn't know how much he meant.

But he didn't care. Anyway, he would just let Liang An inquire about it when the time comes.

But he is not prepared to give more, just as much as his brothers!

After leaving Prince Zhao's Mansion, Zhu Gaoshuo immediately went to the homes of the second son and the eldest son.

After questioning, it turned out to be exactly what Lao San said.

As long as the old man has enough money for the gift, he will definitely be happy!

It was precisely because of this that he returned to his house with a determined mind and gave orders to Liang An.

"Go and check how many gifts they gave to the old man in the past years!"

Hearing this, Liang An did not leave, but said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this slave has already checked."

In fact, he investigates news in this area almost every year.

I just thought that one day the emperor would be able to summon his prince to attend the New Year's Eve banquet.

But unfortunately, it fails almost every year!

But things are getting better now. With his hard work, his prince finally got the emperor to pay more attention to him.

I also hope to attend the New Year’s Eve banquet!

On the other side, listening to his words, Zhu Gaoshuo's face was suddenly full of surprise.

But he soon stopped caring.

After all, he should be happy to have such good subordinates helping him with things!

Dangzhi asked with a smile: "How much have they prepared?"

Hearing this, Liang An quickly replied: "Your Majesty, last year they each paid one hundred thousand, plus some gifts."

"One hundred thousand taels?"

Zhu Gaoshuo was stunned.

He was not surprised that the second and third oldest children could produce so much.

He didn't expect that the boss and his family could also come up with these!

In the end, Zhu Gaoshuo sighed in his heart and felt a little regretful.
Chapter completed!
