Li Yuechan originally had resentment towards Li Yuxi, after all, no matter how much she hated their mother and son, she shouldn't have drugged her, but when Li Yuxi was really sent to the family temple, she couldn't help feeling guilty.

Seeing his son's glory now, and the nobles coming and going, He Mingrui hardly made a sound, somehow he felt forgiveness.

Li Yuechan lost her mother since she was a child. Mrs. Li never lacked clothes or food for her, and she never beat or scolded her casually. She even invited someone to teach her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. , write poems, life in the boudoir is very comfortable.When she was young, she didn't know, but when she was a little older, she probably knew that what she had learned was the ability to win over men, but she was soft-tempered. A concubine who treated her harshly with white eyes, Li Yuechan's life is already good.

Meeting He Yu was a coincidence, and it was also a turning point of all fate. No matter how resigned a concubine is to her fate, she always has the fantasy of getting to know her beloved. What's more, He Yu is a handsome young man who comes from a wealthy family and is so attentive to her, so how can she not fall?

Instead of being used by Li Shilang to cling to the powerful in the future, Li Yuechan made the most important bet in her life.

When He Yu failed to prevent He Li from getting married and finally proposed to elope, she agreed without hesitation.

In this way, she betrayed her family, was spurned by others, and she also brought guilt.

If their mother and son had to look at Di Sister's face to live a difficult life, her little guilt would probably be overwhelmed by jealousy and unwillingness.

But it wasn't, He Xichao was up to the challenge, Li Yuxi was sent to the family temple, and He Mingrui's status was threatened by his son, Li Yuechan's guilt towards her natal family naturally surfaced in her secret pride.

Mrs. Li is so attentive to her this time, she knows why, but she just wants to get my sister back home earlier, she is not stupid, the only one who can intercede now is He Xichao.

"My daughter understands what mother means. After today, my daughter will mention it to Xi Chao and let my sister go home." Li Yuechan said softly.

Mrs. Li sighed when she heard the words, patted her hand, and then feigned anger and said: "It's also that girl who is too ignorant, mother asked you two sisters to support each other, I didn't expect... Alas, mother didn't teach her well. "

Li Yuechan deeply agrees with this point, "It's not that my daughter is complaining, it's that my sister is going too far. If there is any dissatisfaction, it is directed at me. Why do such things."

Anger flashed in Mrs. Li's eyes, and Mrs. Li immediately answered, "Yes, my mother scolded her several times as soon as she found out about it. Second aunt, don't take it to heart."

Li Yuechan hummed.

At this time, a Mrs. Zhang next to her said, "Hey, Sister Li, since Yuxi is not here, do you still want to participate in the business we agreed upon?"

"Participate, of course, who doesn't do profitable business?" Mrs. Li said.

"Then each family is 3 taels..."

"I'm out for Yuxi."

Another Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "The money can be paid out, how can I sign this word? We need to sign to subscribe for the shares."

"Then it's better to wait a little longer. After the new year, my aunt and grandmother will always be able to return home." Mrs. Li said, "Take the money first."

Mrs. Wang sneered slightly, "This business has been established with great difficulty. It's not like you don't know how popular the rare items sent by sea are when they are sold in Beijing. Besides, there are so many people participating in the shares. I'm trying to earn some money for makeup, but I can't wait until the Chinese New Year."

"Then how about an extra share in the Li family?" Mrs. Li asked.

Mrs. Zhang immediately said: "That's not acceptable. If you want it, others want it. I'm willing to pay an extra 3 taels, isn't it just about fairness?"

"Then... How about my second aunt?" Mrs. Li suddenly asked.

Li Yuechan was startled, and quickly waved her hands, "No, I don't understand this."

Mrs. Zhang glanced at Mrs. Wang, and pondered: "The status is too low. The people present here must be at least the wives of fourth-rank officials. To make money, you have to look after the family status. If your eldest aunt is not the second wife of Wei Guogong's mansion , we may not agree."

Mrs. Li suddenly sank down, "Yuechan's status is a bit low, but it's a pity that the court is promising. What is a mere fourth-rank official? After all, you are just a wife, and you have to look at your husband's face. Yuechan cherishes the court. Mother, filial piety comes first, I am afraid that you will be worse in the future!"

As soon as Mrs. Li said this, Mrs. Li Dashao also said: "Today is just the middle school, but who are the people who came to celebrate, you should have seen it. When my nephew wins the first prize in the future, the fourth rank What is an official? Maybe my second aunt and grandma can still be poor and expensive, and she will be ordered to do it, and then even if she holds money, she won't even think about seeing anyone."

As she spoke, she glanced at Li Yuechan, who had her head down, but the corners of her mouth were slightly curled up, that picture was extremely beautiful.

"This..." Mrs. Wang hesitated immediately.

"If you don't want to add it, don't add it. We came together because we are like-minded. We wanted to earn some money for the fans. Since we don't want to, there is no need to bother. Our Li family will leave." Mrs. Li said lightly.

Li Shilang is the head of the household department, they are not willing to let it go, Mrs. Zhang immediately said: "Then let's do it, it's also for the sake of sister Li. But He Erlang is really promising, Yuechan, is he engaged?"

Li Yuechan was taken aback, "He's still young, and he's studying hard, so why would he think about this?"

"It's not too young. From the looks of it, everyone in Beijing knows this good boy well."

"That's right, I heard several wives inquiring about it just now. If there is a girl in the family who is just right, don't you have to work hard?"

"Where do ordinary people think they are, she should be a noble girl. The young master of Wei Guogong's mansion is so promising. The daughter-in-law she marries will not be low. It's just that Yuechan will suffer, and the daughter-in-law of the noble family is not easy to get along with." and."

"Yeah, it's a disadvantage in terms of identity."

"I don't have enough status, I need money to make up for it, my hands are wider, and the daughter-in-law looks better. Just like that family, although she came from a merchant, but she has a lot of money, the county head's daughter-in-law does not still hold her high. "

Whose family is this, except for Li Yuechan, everyone probably knows about it.

"So don't be afraid of Yuechan, there is no harm in hiding more private money."

The women gathered together at a table, and the chat was just that, what you said was what Li Yuechan said in her heart.

She really likes this kind of atmosphere. She is confined to An Yunxuan on weekdays, and there is no one to talk to. Even if the manager of the boss can't hear it, she pricks up her ears and listens as much as possible.

"That's just right. Sister Li will think about her daughter. The 3 taels will be doubled next year."

Li Yuechan's eyes widened when she heard that, "So much?"

"They are all rare items, and they are sold out as soon as they come. You say that it is not a huge profit, but the cost is also high, so multiple people invest together."

Li Yuechan wondered: "But I can't afford that much money."

"Your mother has it, let her put it first, and when her son becomes a high-ranking official in the future, what is this little money for filial piety?"

"This, this is not good..."

"Is there anything good, I can only rely on my aunt now." Mrs. Li sighed, "When I think of my aunt suffering in that temple, I feel so heartbroken... just 3 taels is nothing .”

"That's the reason, you should take it for granted." Mrs. Li said.

"Since it's decided, don't change it. When the shop opens, you have to pay the money and sign it." Mrs. Zhang looked at Li Yuechan and reminded.

Li Yuechan gritted her teeth, her eyebrows were furrowed together, as if it was hard to make a choice, and the others just looked at her like that.

In the end she said: "Mother, ladies, Yuechan would like to thank you all for your kindness, but my concubine has limited experience, so I dare not agree to this matter in a daze, 3 taels... is really too much, even if I take it, I feel flustered." , forget it."

He Xichao reminded her time and time again that she is not a three-year-old child who can't teach her, so she has finally become wary of her natal family, even if it is a good thing, but she doesn't know how to do business, maybe 3 taels It's nothing to these ladies, but Li Yuechan...has never seen it.It's okay if you make a profit, but if you lose it, wouldn't you cause trouble for your son?

Thinking of He Xichao's cold eyes, even Li Yuechan's mother felt trembling.

Mrs. Li was surprised and did not speak for a while, Li Yuechan rejected her!

Ever since she was a child, she has been wronged and will only endure it. The concubine who can do whatever she wants to do, actually rejects her!

Seeing that Mrs. Li didn't speak, Li Yuechan said softly: "Mother, I will do my best with sister. The rest of the daughters are not in charge of the family, so they really can't decide."

The banquet ended amidst the bustle and bustle. Tomorrow is the emperor's Qianqiu Festival. The princes didn't want to stay longer. To leave, even Xiao Hong ordered the guard of honor to go back to the palace.

Of course, it is indispensable to say goodbye to He Xichao Yiyi before leaving.

"I went to see our palace, and it's being painted now, and we can move in by the end of the year." As soon as he said this, Xiao Hong suddenly became excited, "I'm looking forward to it, Xi Chao, how about you?"

"That's natural." He Xichao saw the long guard of honor of the prince leaving the gate of the Duke's Mansion in an orderly manner, and the two carriages were also pulled out, with the big boxes for congratulatory gifts on them. He couldn't help but ask. , "Are you all ready?"

"Don't worry, wait for my good news tomorrow night."

He Xichao's smile deepened immediately, but he was a little cold, "Let me see what the ins and outs of this are, and how many people can be involved. I hope...the more the better."

Putting one hand on his brows, Xiao Hong felt a little displeased by the creases under his fingers, "As soon as your illness improved, you started to think about it again, do you still want to have a body? What did the imperial doctor say, go back and have a good rest , leave the rest to me."

The gaze under his palm suddenly softened, and He Xichao put his hand on his forehead, and before he had time to put away his slightly raised mouth, "Of course I'll leave that matter to you, I won't take care of it anymore, what's in front of me now is how to coax Xie Ge well?" Old man, I think maybe I really have to imitate Cheng Men Lixue to show my resolve, it's really worrying."

It was almost the chief minister of the cabinet, and when he got angry, Xiao Hong couldn't think about it, so he couldn't help asking: "Why don't I go with you, am I just an old man? At worst, I'll serve him with tea and water? "

"That's what I did too. Why are you a prince joining in the fun? Stay honestly in the palace and don't participate." He Xichao warned, "For the time being, you are not allowed to do anything until I get rid of the old man."

Xiao Hong was a little unhappy.

He Xichao said: "Tomorrow is the emperor's thousand years. If you want to show your filial piety, go to the emperor. By the way, what gift have you prepared? Think about the emperor's private money. If you don't prepare well, you will be sorry for him."

"I..." Xiao Hong's expression changed suddenly, "Oh my god, Xi Chao, I agreed to give my father longevity noodles."

He Xichao opened his eyes, "So, will you?"

"...I, it's not difficult, Xi Chao?" Xiao Hong wanted to cry but had no tears.

He Xi turned his face to the side, looked at him, and said almost in shock: "You dare to hold Buddha's feet temporarily?"

"I see you have done it for me several times, it doesn't seem difficult." Xiao Hong hesitated.

"It depends on talent, just like reading. Can you get the number one exam by watching me read?" Besides, although he hasn't practiced a few times in this life, he would in his previous life!

He Xichao really wanted to knock him on the head, but he had no choice but to give up in public, and then urged: "Go back quickly, put other things aside, and find a cook to learn immediately. I tell you, don't take chances and pretend to be smart Just ask the cook to do it for you. Making it yourself from the beginning to the end is completely different from sprinkling some chopped green onion at the end. The emperor is very wise, and he knows what's going on just by looking at it."

How dare Xiao Hong procrastinate at this moment, "Then I'll leave right away, I will order these people to go down for interrogation, don't worry."

"I'm afraid not to worry. No one is as important as the emperor. If he is not comfortable, our life will be difficult. Hurry up and go back to the palace to take good care of him."

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

However, when Xiao Hong turned around, he suddenly heard a voice behind him, "Wait, come back."

He wiped his heels and turned quickly, raised his head and smiled without any hesitation, and asked, "Xi Chao, is there anything else you haven't explained?"

"The memorial sent by Xie San, the emperor may mention it to you, you can answer it after thinking about it."

Xiao Hong patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I know what's good for the country and the people. Naturally, I will not be afraid of dangers and obstacles, and I will take the lead."

He Xichao nodded in relief, admiring like a child, "Let's go now."

The author has something to say: Li Yuechan: It’s not that I’m not tempted, but that 3 taels is too much, and 30 taels is about the same.Besides, you are afraid of my son, and so am I!
