Lin Yuan covered her lips, stealing a laugh but still rolled her eyes and snorted, "Look at how generous you are! Haven't you always been a money-grubber? You're so tightfisted you probably wish you could tie your money pouch to your waist at all times!"
Xia Zheng's eyes widened as he looked at her, an expression of 'Am I really like that?' across his face.
Lin Yuan pushed away his handsome face that had inched towards her own, and talked business: "Waiting for big brother to come back for the engagement seems a bit rushed. Isn't the Crown Prince of Xiliang coming with him too?"
That was indeed the case. With Xia Zhen bringing back an army, naturally, he wouldn't return as quickly as Xia Zheng by himself. Counting the days, it would still be half a month's wait. That means the engagement would be postponed until mid-winter.
