Zhou Xuan asked: "Madam Yue, which labor reform farm is your nephew serving his sentence in?"

  Madam Qin understood and said, "Oh, youre asking what the old ladys nephew does? Let me tell you, my nephew is also a doctor, and at a young age, hes already an assistant professor of medicine in Shouzhou. Hes a good match for our familys Zhier."

  Zhou Xuan said: "Madam Yuesheng just said that Xiao Xus origin is unknown, but do you know Xiao Xus true identity?"

  "What is your identity?" Madam Qin sized up Zhou Xuan, who was wearing a long gown with the front open due to the heat, revealing a T-shirt underneath with a dark green wolf head printed on the chest, which looked strange no matter how you looked at it.

  Zhou Xuan glanced at the maidservants standing by the door.

  Dr. Qin nodded in understanding and waved his hand to let them leave, but the young boy in green clothes who had been peeking out from behind the door earlier clung to Madame Qins leg and refused to go out.

  Zhou Xuan asked: "Who is this lovely little brother?"

  Dr. Qin said: "This is my son Qin Xiaodi, Xiaodi, hurry up and go out, children shouldnt listen to adults business."

  It turned out to be Little Brother-in-law, thats someone who must be won over. Zhou Xuan smiled and said: "Never mind, let Xiao Del stay here, Xiao Del is very well-behaved."

  Qin Xiaodi blinked her shiny black eyes and smiled shyly.

  Zhou Xuan gazed into the void, as if immersed in memories, then lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Actually, I am a fallen prince..."

  Dr. Qin and his family of three all opened their eyes wide at the same time.

  Zhou Xuan saw the effect was not bad, and continued to bluff: "You know Java, in Nanyang, but my kingdom is even farther south of Nanyang, thousands of miles away, called Australia. Australias territory is vast, with thousands of miles east, west, south, and north, comparable to the Central Plains, but with a sparse population, its territory is larger than that of the Tang Dynasty, but its population is not as large as that of the Tang Dynasty..."

  Heaven knows when Zhou Xuans family immigrated to Australia, and Zhou Xuans father even became the President of Australia. There was also a bad uncle who appeared out of nowhere. And so, an Australian version of "Hamlet" and "Banquet" emerged, with Zhou Xuan becoming a prince in exile.

  Zhous speech was so touching, all of which were trained by coaxing girls in daily life, emphasizing a voice and emotion, he also took out the dragon card from the construction bank in his wallet, saying it was the national god symbol.

  Dr. Qin took the card with a mixture of reverence and trepidation, marveling at the small, mysterious object that was neither gold nor wood, nor jade nor paper - something rarely seen in Tang country. The strange characters and rows of cryptic symbols on its surface only added to his wonder. As an honest and trusting couple, Dr. Qin and his wife were deeply moved, with the old man repeatedly sighing in amazement. His wifes maternal instincts were stirred, and she exclaimed, "The young prince is truly pitiful, truly pitiful!" She seemed on the verge of embracing Zhou Xuan to comfort him.

  Zhou Xuan sighed and waved his hand, saying: "Alas, the old country is not worth looking back on. In the bright moonlight, you two elderly people dont have to call me Your Highness anymore. A person from a fallen nation is no better than a stray dog who has lost its home. I just hope you wont treat me like an outsider."

  The old couple walked to one side, holding hands and discussing. Zhou Xuan heard that Qin Doctor insisted on marrying his daughter to this prince, saying that they couldnt look down on others just because they were in trouble, and that the Qin family wouldnt do such things as currying favor with the powerful. Moreover, all the neighbors knew that Zhou Jielun was already considered the son-in-law of the Qin family, so going back on their word would damage the reputation of the Qin family.

  Madam Qin frowned, after all, her nephew was very important to her, and when she planned the substitute marriage, she had already thought of a countermeasure. After the selection of the bride, she would send away the substitute as soon as they left Jiangzhou, and then quietly proceed with the wedding when her nephew came to welcome the bride, without disturbing the neighbors. Then, she would let Qin Que follow her cousin to Shouzhou, and who would know there that Qin Que had once been married to a Zhou Jielun?

  The problem now is that this substitute husband was beyond the expectations of Mr. and Mrs. Qin, and he turned out to be a prince. Although he had fallen on hard times, a dead camel is still bigger than a horse, after all. In ancient times, people placed great importance on social status, so even if a prince fell on hard times, he was still a prince. The most that the assistant professor of medicine from Shouzhou could hope to become was a regular eighth-rank imperial physician.

  A womans vanity is particularly strong, especially for middle-aged and elderly women. Thinking that she was the mother-in-law of a prince, Mrs. Qin was thrilled, but after all, Mrs. Qin was not a romantic girl who loved to daydream, so she calmed down soon. Although she sympathized with this prince, she didnt want to give her daughter to him yet. But how should she deal with this prince? If she didnt marry her daughter to him and he made trouble, what would happen then?

  While the old couple was discussing on one side, Zhou Xuan had already become familiar with his younger brother-in-law Qin Xiaodi. Zhou Xuan folded a paper airplane and asked Xiaodi to call him "brother-in-law". The child was easy to coax and soon called out "brother-in-law" in unison.

  "Xiao Di, come out quickly." A clear and melodious girls voice came from outside the door. Xiao Di hurriedly went out, and the girl scolded him in a low voice for calling Zhou Xuan "brother-in-law", then loudly said: "Dad, mom, Que Er will not marry that fake older brother." Afterwards, the footsteps were light and quick, and she left.

  It turned out to be the bride, her voice was really good, clear and pleasant to hear. Although her tone was very resolute, Zhou Xuan liked it, she was a loyal and good girl.

  Madam Qin found an excuse and came over to say: "Your Highness, its all right, just call him Master Zhou. Master Zhou, take a look at my little girl..."

  "Madam, dont say any more. I understand. When love has a place to belong, forced relationships are not sweet. Dont worry, Madam, I wont abandon you all. Im willing to help Qiuer get through this difficult time by taking her place in the marriage. When your nephew comes to welcome his bride, Ill leave the Qin Manor."

  Zhou Xuans attitude towards the fake marriage took a 180-degree turn, leaving Dr. Qin and his wife delighted and grateful, unable to express their thanks, this is truly the demeanor of a prince.

  Zhou Xuan said: "In order to deceive peoples ears and eyes, during this period I will still call you Father-in-law and Mother-in-law."

  Zhou Xuan was so willing to cooperate that Dr. Qin and his wife were overjoyed, and immediately arranged for Zhou Xuan to rest in Que Ers boudoir as a sign of their gratitude.

  After the old couple left, a maidservant brought over a basin of water to attend to Zhou Xuans washing up. There was also a toothbrush made from a short piece of willow branch. Zhou Xuan was bewildered - how was he supposed to use this?

  The maids name was Xiaohui, she was Miss Qinques personal servant girl, thirteen years old, with an ordinary appearance and a cunning expression. She didnt show any shyness in front of Zhou Xuan, smiling as she taught him to brush his teeth. It turned out that the toothbrush was made from a willow branch, one end bitten into shape, coated with a salty medicinal powder, which was then inserted into the mouth to brush and clean the teeth, leaving a refreshing fragrance.

  Xiao Huixiang was carrying the washing utensils and was about to leave when Zhou Xuan suddenly asked: "Xiao Huixiang, did you and Miss Qin see a handbag of mine in the car?"

  Xiao Huixiang said: "Is it a bag with a bad woman painted on it? It turns out to be the uncles."

  The image ambassador of Lanvin jeans is Taiwanese supermodel Lin Chi-ling, whose beautiful photo is printed on the handbag. She wears light blue mid-waist jeans, a metal belt and high heels, with her hips protruding outward, her long legs forming a small bow-like shape, looking back with a captivating gaze that enthralls the soul.

  Xiao Huixiang walked behind the embroidered couch and found the handbag, and the cowboy pants were also in the bag.

  Zhou Xuan pointed at Lin Zhiling and asked: "How can you say shes a bad woman?"

  Xiao Huixiang said: "It was my young lady who said that, saying that this womans demeanor is just seductive, like a courtesan, but this painting is really well-painted."

  Zhou Xuan thought that Miss Qin had a good eye for things, and what she said was right. However, this handbag, jeans, and harmonica in his butt pocket were the three treasures that followed him to this time and space, and he must make full use of them.

  Zhou Xuan said with a straight face, "This is what I painted. The woman in the painting is someone I love. Shes not a bad person. This expression of hers is only for me to see. A womans beauty is for the one she loves, after all. Unfortunately, shes dead."

  Just now, Xiao Huixiang accompanied the young lady to hide outside the door and listened for a moment. She knew that this young master was a prince who had suffered a shipwreck. Curiously, she asked: "How did he die?"

  Zhou Xuan said with a heavy heart: "She died to save me when we encountered difficulties at sea, tomorrow Ill tell you her story, its very sad and touching."

  Thyme looked at the cowboy pants in the bag and asked, "Is this her remains?"

  Zhou Xuan said: "It was I who bought her the jeans, unfortunately she never wore them once. I believe that I will definitely be able to find a woman suitable for wearing these jeans, and then she will be my future wife."

  "Lets have our young lady try it on," said the thyme, and then felt embarrassed as soon as she spoke, stuck out her tongue, and quickly walked away.

  Zhou Xuan fell onto the embroidered couch with a thud, laughing smugly. But as he laughed, his smile gradually froze, and he couldnt laugh anymore. He thought about how he had been abandoned in this world, and inexplicably became someones son-in-law, yet it was all just a ruse. Fate was playing tricks on him!

  "Man can conquer nature; I am not willing to be manipulated by others."

  Before sleep overtook her, Zhou Xuan thought this way.
