Chapter 323 Pei Mochen's Study: Master, the Regent will return to Beijing tomorrow
Meng Xiao said with some embarrassment: "Miss, I haven't saved any money in all these years. Now I can't even afford the betrothal gift for you. How can I marry you?"
"You've used all your allowance over the years to help this girl, so of course you can't save any money." Di Xiuyan and Mu Wanyan suddenly appeared in front of them.
Di Xiuyan walked up to Meng Xiao and patted his shoulder, "I will take charge of this marriage. You and Jintong don't have to worry about the betrothal gifts and the house. I will take care of it."
Di Xiuyan knocked on Di Jintong's head again and said unhappily, "Do you know how many troubles you have caused since you were a child?"
Di Jintong shook his head, "I can't remember."
Mu Wanyan was afraid that Di Xiuyan would expose Jintong's past in front of Meng Xiao, so she tried to smooth things over by saying, "Jintong is well-behaved and docile, how much trouble can she cause? There's no need to talk about the past."
It's nothing more than breaking Long Yuan's roots, how big a deal can that be?
Di Xiuyan pulled Mu Wanyan over and patiently explained to her, "Since she was a child, Jintong has burned down other people's houses, flooded other people's dry fields, destroyed other people's gardens, and even once broke the legs of a few hooligans."
He pointed at Meng Xiao and said, "It was that big idiot who secretly used his allowance to help her make up for the loss and apologize to her. The key point is that he didn't allow anyone to cause trouble for Jintong."
"Di Jintong herself doesn't know about these things. She always runs away after getting into trouble, thinking she got lucky."
"I just found out recently that Meng Xiao applied to guard the border in order to help that girl pay back the money, because the salary for guarding the border is high."
Meng Xiao didn't expect that his master would know about these things, so he quickly pleaded with Di Xiuyan: "Master, these have nothing to do with Jintong, please don't blame her."
"In fact, those who had conflicts with the young lady were not good people. I saw that some people's lives were not going well, so I went to help subsidize them."
Di Xiuyan nodded, "Yes, I'll use your regular salary as a subsidy."
"Meng Xiao--" Suddenly hearing that Meng Xiao had done so many things for her silently over the years, Di Jintong was so moved that she burst into tears again.
She wanted to throw herself into his arms again, but her brother was there, so she didn't dare to do so.
Di Xiuyan glared at his sister and said to Meng Xiao, "My sister gets into trouble every day. If you don't want to take her in, I will send her to a temple to be a nun. It's up to you to decide."
He is the commander-in-chief of the Xuanwu Army. He has been in the military camp for so long. What kind of men has he not seen?
As their master, he knows better than anyone which subordinates like to fight, which subordinates like to be prostitutes, and which subordinates like to gossip and haggle.
How could Di Xiuyan not know Meng Xiao's character? Would he arrange a husband for her at random?
Meng Xiao is a martial arts expert, hardworking and dedicated, and he guards the border without hesitation. Most importantly, he never visits the brothel, which is very rare.
Moreover, he was deeply in love with Di Jintong, and he did good things without leaving a name. How could Di Xiuyan not want such a brother-in-law? He was not stupid.
When Di Jintong heard that her brother was going to send her to be a nun, she hurried to Mu Wanyan and begged, "Sister-in-law, please persuade my brother. I can give up being a man, but I really can't get used to vegetarian food. I don't want to be a nun."
Mu Wanyan cast her eyes towards Meng Xiao and said with a smile, "Your master has spoken, why don't you take the initiative as a grown man? Do you really want my Jintong to beat the wooden fish?"
At this time, Meng Xiao, who was slow to realize what was going on, suddenly grinned and asked Di Xiuyan, "Master, do you agree? You actually agree?"
Di Xiuyan: "Well, I'll leave it to you so she won't harm others."
Upon hearing this, Meng Xiao instantly revealed his white teeth, and even ignored the injury on his leg, and knelt down in front of Di Xiuyan with a plop.
"Thank you for your help, Master. I will definitely treat Jintong well."
"I swear to my master that I will only be good to Jintong in this life and will never take a concubine or a concubine."
Di Xiuyan only smiled at them now, "Yes, that's what I wanted to hear. Originally, our Di family's tradition does not allow men to take concubines."
While speaking, he deliberately glanced at Mu Wanyan, wanting the little girl to praise him.
At this time, Meng Xiao, who was in excitement, spoke again. He bowed to Di Xiuyan and said:
"Master, since you are willing to marry Jintong to me, I don't want my allowance anymore. I will never want your allowance again."
Di Jintong's eyes widened upon hearing this, and he slammed Meng Xiao on the head, "Are you stupid? Does your brother need our help?"
Di Xiuyan nodded and smiled, "Okay, then Meng Xiao's salary will belong to Jintong from now on!"
Hearing this, Di Jintong laughed with satisfaction and said, "Brother and sister-in-law are so nice," and then pulled his Meng Xiao to go spend some time alone.
Mu Wanyan tilted her head and looked at Di Xiuyan in confusion, "Xiuyan, does that mean that all of Meng Xiao's previous salary was used to help Jintong fill the hole? And after they get married, all of the salary will be handed over to Jintong to manage?"
Di Xiuyan: “Yes.”
Mu Wanyan: "Why does it sound like something is wrong to me?" It seems like Meng Xiao is at a disadvantage.
Di Xiuyan hugged Mu Wanyan into his arms and chuckled, "One is willing to fight, the other is willing to be beaten, let's ignore them."
Then he picked up Mu Wanyan and climbed onto the horse again, riding his little red horse to the hot spring they had just been to.
There are some things that he has not yet finished, so he has to continue doing them.

Dafeng Kingdom, Pei Mochen's study.
"Master, I heard that the Regent has returned triumphantly and will arrive in the capital tomorrow."
Pei Mochen nodded, "It's good to come back. Now that Yanyan is gone, there can be no grudge between him and me anymore."
"Master, I heard that the Regent returned to the capital this time and brought a woman back with him."
