Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Before the two of them had taken a few steps, they were stopped by Shopkeeper Li who came hurriedly behind them.

When he opened the two purses just now, he was so shocked that he was almost speechless.

Without caring about anything else, he chased after them with his purse. Fortunately, they had not yet gotten on the carriage.

"Sir Yu, Young Master, Chengshan Hall cannot accept these two purses. They are simply too many." Shopkeeper Li hurriedly said to Yu Sicong.

Li Junhao saw the joy on Yu Sicong's face, and the corners of his mouth curled up imperceptibly, and then he said, "Shopkeeper Li, you don't have to be polite. This is a gift from both of us. Please accept it no matter what."

"I think Lord Yu must think the same. You can't delay our good deeds for these children and the elderly, right, Lord Yu?"

Li Junhao's words shattered all of Yu Sicong's hopes. He had no choice but to put on a smiling face and said to Shopkeeper Li, "Yes, yes, this is a gift from us... Shopkeeper Li, please accept it."

Seeing that the two had talked to this point, Shopkeeper Li had no choice but to say,

"In that case, then fine. Our boss originally wanted to open another school for common people, specifically to teach common people's children to go to school and learn to read. With this money, we should be able to make the next step of the pilgrimage as soon as possible."

Yu Sicong almost cried.

Well, Li Junhao was surprised again. The Gu family actually wanted to open another school. What exactly did Gu Xunwei and the others want to do?

With these questions and a dejected Yu Sicong, the group went to Louwailou again, and Li Junhao invited Yu Sicong to have dinner.

"Your Highness, can you treat me to a sweet and sour fish?" Yu Sicong asked cautiously.

He has loved eating fish since he was a child, especially the sweet and sour fish from Louwailou, but the price of this sweet and sour fish is really not cheap.

"I probably won't be able to eat it for a long time." Yu Sicong almost cried when he said this.

When Sang Mo saw Li Junhao nod, he hurried out to find the waiter to order more dishes. After he left the door, he laughed unscrupulously.

If I had broken the teacup myself, no one would be able to say anything about it, and I would have to go to Suzhou for sure.

He and Xiao Fuzi both saw how much His Highness cherished that set of tea cups. He could spend an hour every day just playing with the master cup.

At night, around midnight, Li Junhao said to Sang Mo, "It's almost time. Go get a silver note worth 1,000 taels and give it to Acong."

It's okay to let him feel uncomfortable for half a day. If he continues to feel uncomfortable, his old man will be heartbroken.

Sang Mo nodded, then took the order and went to Yu Mansion.

The Yu family must have rested at this time, and the doors were locked. However, this did not pose a problem for Sang Mo. He leaped a few times and found his way to Yu Sicong's yard with ease.

"Who?" The servant on duty in the room was the first to discover Sang Mo and exclaimed in the darkness.

Before Sang Mo could answer, Yu Sicong had already lit the tinderbox. Seeing that it was Sang Mo, he quickly asked, "Chief Sang, you're finally here. I knew that His Highness would never do this to me, right?"

He couldn't fall asleep the whole time, he was so heartbroken that he tossed and turned.

Fortunately, he finally waited for His Highness to ask Sang Mo to send him some banknotes.

When the servant on night duty heard his master say this, he realized that his master was tossing and turning in sleep because he was waiting for this Chief Sang.

So he hurriedly helped Yu Sicong light the candle. Just as he was about to turn around to pour some tea, he heard a somewhat old voice suddenly coming from outside the window.

"Young Master, Grandpa has told you to be asleep before midnight, otherwise, your liver will be damaged."

Yu Sicong rolled his eyes helplessly, "I understand, Uncle Li, I'll go to sleep now."

Sang Mo looked at Yu Sicong with a smile. He was already in his twenties, but was still controlled so strictly by the old man.

After Yu Sicong finished speaking, he had to extinguish the candle that had just been lit.

Fortunately, there were a few wind-killing lanterns hanging under the eaves of the yard, so the light inside the house was enough to see clearly.

Uncle Li is a very powerful master. He might have already noticed Sang Mo when he came in. What he said just now was probably more for Sang Mo to hear.

"Captain Sang," Yu Sicong continued to ask, "Speak up, did His Highness ask you to come here?"

There was a lot of impatience in his words.

Sang Mo didn't want to tease him anymore, so he could only say, "His Highness asked me to come here to give Lord Yu a banknote."

"Oh, how can I say this? After all, it was me who suggested going to Chengshan Hall, and I can't let His Highness pay for it all, that..."

Before he could finish his words, Sang Mo had already stuffed a large silver note of one thousand taels into his hand.

"Don't be polite, Lord Yu. Go to bed early, otherwise you will hurt your liver." After saying this, Sang Mo tiptoed out of the window and walked out of the yard, then climbed over the wall and went out.

Li Bo outside the courtyard shook his head helplessly. This brat, does he think I don't exist? How dare he come to Yu's house so openly? Oh, if it weren't for the Crown Prince, I would have to give him a hand.

Yu Sicong in the room understood the moment he received the banknote that the facts were probably different from what he had imagined.

There was a stack of banknotes in his pocket, and they were all large denominations. His Highness only gave him one, and even if it was the largest denomination, it was still far from enough.

Uncle Li was outside the door. Fearing that he would go to his grandfather to complain about himself, he did not dare to light the candle again. Instead, he lit the fire and took a look.

Well, one thousand taels, that’s fine, that’s fine, it’s better than nothing at all.

Oh, that's not right. I was just busy talking about the money and forgot to ask Sang Mo what I had done today to offend His Highness.

No, I have to go see him tomorrow and ask him something.

Bai Zhi told Gu Xunwei what happened at Chengshan Hall the next day. After all, receiving so many banknotes at once was no small matter.

"Who is it? Manager Li doesn't know him either?" Gu Xunwei asked puzzledly after hearing this.

Shopkeeper Li has been in the capital for two years and knows eighty to ninety percent of the powerful and influential people. How come a face he has never seen before suddenly appeared today?

"Shopkeeper Li said that it was Lord Yu Sicong who brought people there. He looked very noble and Lord Yu had to listen to him. He must be a nobleman from some mansion." Bai Zhi repeated Shopkeeper Li's original words truthfully.

"Yu Sicong?" Gu Xunwei searched her mind and finally remembered that Sang Mo had mentioned letting Lord Yu and the Yu family take the blame.

She immediately understood that it must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had never appeared in the capital, so it was not surprising that Shopkeeper Li could not recognize him.
