The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
After breakfast, Shangguan Qingyue went to find Shangguan Bailin, gestured at him with her purse, and forced him to write a line of words for her.
Shangguan Bailin was very surprised, but he still let his sister do as she pleased and wrote a few big words on the paper.
(Lend Yue'er some money, and she will pay you back when she grows up!)
Shangguan Bailin looked down at the little guy beside him and said, "Yue'er, what do you want the money for?"
Shangguan Qingyue said sternly, "I'm going to take the money and go find my third brother..."
Qi You?
Shangguan Bailin thought that Shangguan Qingyue was also going to use money to hire someone to find Shangguan Qiyou. Although he thought this behavior was childish, it was also Yue'er's good intention.
He was quite touched and rubbed Shangguan Qingyue's head with his hand. "Wait, second brother will give you the silver." At the end, he said generously, "You don't have to pay it back!"
Shangguan Qingyue was overjoyed when she heard that she didn't have to pay it back. Who would want to be in debt? With her small body, how could she bear such a heavy debt?
[Second brother is still the best, just give me the money! ]
When Shangguan Bailin heard the praise, he was so happy that he immediately moved a chair and reached for a box on the top of the bookshelf and took it down.
A big square box.
Shangguan Qingyue's eyes lit up, filled with admiration, "Wow! How much silver must this be!"
[I didn’t expect my second brother to be so rich at such a young age!]
Shangguan Bailin hummed proudly, blew away the accumulated dirt on the box, took the inkstone from the table, turned it over, and used a knife to dig open the back of the inkstone. There seemed to be a small key hidden inside.
[Wow! Second brother must be so rich to be hiding it so well!]
Shangguan Bailin opened the box with a key.
Shangguan Qingyue immediately climbed onto the chair and stretched his neck to look. Hmm? Why is there still a box inside?
Shangguan Bailin waved his finger at Shangguan Qingyue, then bent down and reached into his boots. After a while, he took out a key from inside.
【Alas……】
Shangguan Qingyue blocked his nose in disgust.
Shangguan Bailin used the key to open the box inside.
Shangguan Qingyue couldn't help but look over, and then his eyebrows twisted together.
【Why is there another box? 】
Shangguan Bailin opened another pen tube and pulled out a key...
Just like that, layer within layer, box within box...
Until finally, only a small box the size of a palm was left.
Shangguan Qingyue's palm...
Shangguan Bailin proudly took out a book from the bookshelf and opened it. Unexpectedly, there was a key slot hidden inside, and a small key was lying inside.
Shangguan Qingyue: ...
Shangguan Bailin opened the box, took out five taels of silver, and handed it to Shangguan Qingyue. He held her hand and said seriously, "Yuer, this is all of my second brother's belongings. Take it all!"
Shangguan Qingyue: ...
He threw the silver into the purse with an expressionless face.
Then he jumped off the chair and walked out without any regrets.
Behind him, Shangguan Bailin asked worriedly, "Yuer, is it heavy? Do you want your second brother to help you get it?"
【Take a break! 】
Shangguan Qingyue carried the money bag and went to the study to find his father. His father poked his head out from the sea of books and asked, "What's the matter?"
Shangguan Qingyue spread out the note written by Shangguan Bailin.
[Lend Yue'er some money, and I'll pay you back when I grow up! ]
Shangguan Shu was puzzled, "What do you want the silver for?"
The little guy seemed dissatisfied with his question, wrinkling his face and stamping his feet, "Just tell me whether you will give it to me or not!"
Seeing his little girl getting angry and mad, and looking so cute, Shangguan Shu's heart softened and he waved to Shangguan Qingyue, "Come here!"
Shangguan Qingyue walked over with a frown.
"How much?"
Shangguan Qingyue stretched out his claws.
"Five taels?"
[No, no!]
The little guy shook his head.
【Five hundred taels! 】
Shangguan Shu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you asked your mother for it?"
Shangguan Qingyue shook his head. [No, my mother went out early in the morning and didn't have time to ask for it...]
Shangguan Shu nodded and took out a silver note worth one thousand taels.
"Here's one thousand taels. You don't have to ask your mother for it!"
Shangguan Qingyue's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.
[Daddy is so rich! One thousand taels!]
Shangguan Shu shook his head helplessly, folded the banknote again and again, and put it into the little guy's purse, "Alright, go and play by yourself!"
Shangguan Qingyue chuckled, patted his bulging wallet, and waved to Shangguan Shu, "Daddy, I'm leaving! Goodbye, Daddy!"
Shangguan Shu had never been loved so much by Shangguan Qingyue...
As expected... Money makes the world go round!
Shangguan Qingyue went to see the old duke again. The old duke was afraid that she would get anxious and repent, so he quickly took out a thousand taels of silver and happily sent Shangguan Qingyue out of Ning'an Hall.
Who should I look for next?
Shangguan Qingyue was just thinking when Shangguan Chengjing came towards him.
Shangguan Qingyue rushed out and blocked Shangguan Chengjing's way.
Shangguan Chengjing was startled and thought a wild dog had run in.
Shangguan Chengjing took a closer look and then frowned, "What are you doing?"
Shangguan Qingyue spread out the note as usual.
Shangguan Chengjing frowned even deeper. "You are so young, why are you borrowing money?"
[I'm going to find my third brother...]
Shangguan Chengjing smiled sarcastically. His father and mother had been looking for Qi You for so long but couldn't find him. How could a little kid like her find him?
Are you planning to use the money to do something bad?
She is not as well-behaved and sensible as Qing'er!
