The third prince packed up the silver and money and left the palace without stopping.
When they arrived at the General's Mansion, today's "Kung Fu Panda" sword show had just ended, and Rong Yuanyou and Rong Chaoxi were happily sitting on the stage counting money.
He looked as if he had seen so much money for the first time, and his eyes were shining with gold.
The third prince saw it and felt sad.
It turns out that the rumors are true. Sister Chaoxi is so miserable. She can be so happy with just a few dollars.
The third prince walked quickly towards the stage with a distressed look on his face.
Cheng Xi called two guards to carry all of the third prince's belongings and follow closely.
At first he thought it was just an exaggerated rumor on the street, but he never thought it was true. General Rong even set up a stage for the two children to perform.
"Nine, ten, eleven, twelve..."
Rong Yuanyou put the last piece of silver into his purse and shook it in front of Rong Chaoxi.
"Little sister, we earned twelve taels of silver today, we can buy..."
Rong Yuanyou counted on his fingers and continued happily,
"You can buy thirty roast chickens and ten roast ducks, which will last you for half a month."
"Eat it for half a month, half a month, it's so good, so good, I eat a lot of meat every day..."
Rong Chaoxi stood up happily and turned around.
Including the ones Hai Yan sent, she can eat two roast chickens every day.
There is always enough meat to eat every day.
The little guy's mouth was watering just thinking about it.
"Second Young Master."
At this moment of joy, a terrible voice suddenly appeared, shattering their beautiful fantasy.
"You haven't finished your homework for today, right? Hurry and go to the eldest master's courtyard." Yan Zhu extended her hand to Rong Yuanyou, "I'll keep this purse for you."
"No, this is what we earned with great difficulty. We want to save it for my younger sister to buy roast chicken." Rong Yuanyou held the purse in his arms.
He knew that if he handed it over today, the money would no longer belong to him.
That's how I lost all my money a few days ago.
He said he was keeping it, but in the end he would never return it to himself.
They also protected each other and said that Aunt Yanzhu did not keep his purse for him.
Adults are all liars.
"That won't work." Yan Zhu said with a smile, "Madam said that your academic performance has declined significantly in recent days. If you don't do well in the quiz tomorrow, not only will you lose all this money, but you will also lose your meat for a month, and you will have to eat an extra plate of vegetables at every meal."
"Second Master, give me your purse now so I can go to the eldest master for tutoring, or start eating vegetarian food from dinner tonight. Please choose one."
Looking at Yan Zhu's gentle, devilish smile, Rong Yuanyou's mouth twitched in grievance.
"This... this belongs to my younger sister..."
“No, no, no…”
Before Rong Yuanyou could finish his words, Rong Chaoxi denied it repeatedly, and his hands left afterimages.
She didn't want to be deprived of the chicken legs and elbows for tonight and have to eat only vegetarian food.
Yao recalled that she forgot to wipe her mouth after eating the roast chicken that Hai Yan had prepared yesterday, so her mother used this as an excuse to deduct her chicken leg for dinner.
Seeing this, Rong Yuanyou glared at Rong Chaoxi with disappointment.
Didn't you promise yesterday to defend your silver to the death? You surrendered without even a struggle!?
Rong Chaoxi pouted and lowered her head guiltily.
[Wo doesn't know, Wo doesn't know, just don't take away Wo's flesh...]
Rong Yuanyou stamped his feet in anger and handed over the purse unwillingly.
"If I do well on my quiz, will Mom return all the money to me?"
Yan Zhu smiled and nodded without saying anything.
It looks very insincere.
Rong Yuanyou had no choice but to choose to believe and loosen his last bit of struggle - the rope of his purse.
Chong was still avoiding his sight. After Rong Chaoxi, who was pretending to be a quail, stomped his feet, Rong Yuanyou turned around and ran towards Yinshan Courtyard.
The third prince just happened to walk around the pond and came to Chaoxi.
After the servants paid their respects, the Third Prince asked them to leave, leaving only Chaoxi and Guolai.
Ever since Guo Lai entered the palace and smelled the faint scent of the third prince, he has been lying quietly beside Chaoxi.
He looked dozens of times more obedient than usual in front of Chaoxi.
Now that the Third Prince was close, it wished it could hide itself.
But seeing the worried look on the Third Prince's face, doubts arose in his heart.
Why would He have such an expression?
Why does He have an expression?
The bear has a big head but a small brain, so it doesn't understand.
Just be obedient, and he won't be mean to you if you are obedient.
"Sister Chaoxi, you've suffered so much. Have you eaten enough? Are you thin...uh..."
The moment the third prince picked up Chaoxi, the worried words were stuck in his throat.
He blinked, a puzzled look on his face.
Is this... really the weight a one-year-old should have?
My sisters are not that heavy.
and……
The third prince looked Chaoxi up and down twice.
Chaoxi seems to be a little older than other children of the same age.
This waist...is almost catching up with mine.
"Sister Chaoxi, is your family..." The Third Prince considered his words carefully and asked, "Are you short of money?"
"Short of money?" Rong Chaoxi tilted his head and repeated these two words, trying hard to think whether he was really short of money.
[I think there's plenty of it. Mother made a lot of money and bought a lot of food.]
I received a lot of red envelopes during Chinese New Year, and even stole my second brother's red envelope...
[At my first birthday party, many uncles, aunts, and sisters gave Chaoxi a lot of gifts, which could be sold for a lot of money.]
【I don’t think I’m short of money, right?】
The little guy scratched his head, not understanding why the third prince asked this.
