After rolling his eyes several times, Qin Peiyou continued, "Even if Princess Ping'an and Miss Su invite me, you can't leave me here alone, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless you take me with you!" Qin Peiyou raised his chin and uttered these words heavily.
He Yanxiu, "..."
"No." He Yanxiu waved his hand. "Princess Ping'an only invited me to go, but she never said that you have to go with her. If I make the decision on my own, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate."
He is serious about being henpecked.
Although still a fiancée.
"My cousin stood me up first, so he should be compensated!" Qin Peiyou refused to give in.
But when he saw that He Yanxiu's expression did not soften at all, he thought for a moment and added, "During the Mid-Autumn Festival, my father gave me a farm with an annual income of 5,000 taels. So, I will give you some this year."
There is silver.
He Yanxiu's eyes suddenly lit up, but he still raised his eyebrows, "How much?"
"One thousand taels."
Qin Peiyou gritted his teeth and quoted a price.
He Yanxiu turned and left.
"Two thousand taels!"
When he shouted this, Qin Peiyou seemed to hear the sound of his back teeth being bitten.
He Yanxiu's pace still showed no sign of slowing down.
Two thousand taels is not enough?
My cousin has changed...
It has become the case that principles are more important than money.
Just when Qin Peiyou was looking depressed and wilted like an eggplant hit by frost, He Yanxiu waved his hand impatiently, "Why don't you leave now?"
Qin Peiyou, "!!!"
"I'm right here!" Qin Peiyou followed He Yanxiu happily like a bird out of a cage.
"When you meet Princess Ping'an and Miss Su later, if they ask why you came along..." He Yanxiu hesitated and looked at Qin Peiyou meaningfully.
"I just said that I happened to meet my cousin on the road and wanted to talk to him!" Qin Peiyou took all the responsibility on himself without hesitation.
This child is teachable!
He Yanxiu looked at Qin Peiyou, his face full of relief.
The carriage moved forward and soon arrived at the place agreed by Su Yujin.
At this time, Su Yujin and Su Yunruo were directing the servants to carry the things they had selected onto the carriage.
Sunflower seeds, spiced, liquorice, plain, salt and pepper.
Garlic-flavored fried peanuts, spicy orchid beans, sweet sugar-fried chestnuts, plump and large watermelon seeds, crispy and fragrant almonds...
Su Yunruo finally understood why Su Yujin invited He Yanxiu to come along when they went out shopping.
It was so that the servants could move things when they were short of manpower! And if they continued to buy like this, there would definitely not be enough manpower.
When they saw the scene in front of them, He Yanxiu and Qin Peiyou looked at each other in surprise.
Aren’t you really here to purchase goods?
As if she could see the shock on He Yanxiu's face, Su Yujin smiled and said, "There are more people in the family this year, so we naturally have to prepare more things."
"But no matter how many people there are..." He Yanxiu hesitated to speak.
These things are really too much! "If you can't finish them at home, you can share them with Juweizhai and other shops. If you still can't finish them, you can send some to Qinghe." Su Yujin answered nonchalantly.
The main focus is on a festive atmosphere.
Whether you can finish the food or not is not important! "Princess Ping'an is absolutely right." Qin Peiyou quickly interrupted, "The New Year is all about having fun."
"My cousin has been working in the Ministry of Revenue for a long time, and he has become calculating in everything. Although it is a good thing to be frugal, it also needs to be done in certain occasions and at certain times, don't you think so, cousin?"
It's you, you big-headed ghost!
He Yanxiu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Good boy, I agreed to bring you here reluctantly, but you ruined everything as soon as you came!
And she acted even tougher than those girls selling tea.
If I had known this earlier, these two thousand taels of silver would have been too little!
He Yanxiu's eyes almost rolled out of his head, but he had nothing to refute, so he could only glare at Qin Peiyou fiercely.
Qin Peiyou pretended not to notice and talked to Su Yunruo cheerfully, "Miss Su, you have been working hard at the horse farm recently. You must have worked hard."
"Thank you, Mr. Qin San, for your concern." Su Yunruo said with a smile, "But this hard work is worth it. Now the horse farm has taken shape. By next spring, the number of horses will double. After the mares give birth to foals, it will be even more impressive."
"Then I must go to the racecourse to take a look next spring. It must be spectacular." Qin Peiyou took the opportunity to suggest.
"You're most welcome." Su Yunruo smiled slightly.
Su Yunruo was a lively and pretty person, and she was also very beautiful. Her smile was as bright as the sun, making it almost impossible to take your eyes off her.
Qin Peiyou's gaze seemed to be fixed on Su Yunruo.
Su Yunruo realized that she was being stared at and looked herself up and down, "But what's wrong with me?"
"No, no." Qin Peiyou said hurriedly, "Miss Su is fine, but I saw that the bracelet on Miss Su's wrist looked very novel. Thinking that the fifth princess' birthday would be soon after the New Year, I took a few more glances at it."
"This bracelet was given to me by Sister Jin from her jewelry shop. I think it's very beautiful. There are many novel things in Sister Jin's jewelry shop. If Mr. Qin San wants to send a gift, you can go there to take a look." Su Yunruo replied with a smile.
"Princess Ping'an's jewelry shop."
Qin Peiyou rolled his eyes several times quickly, and then he bowed to Su Yunruo, "Although I want to give the Fifth Princess a gift, it is difficult to guess a girl's thoughts and preferences. I am afraid that the Fifth Princess will not like the one I like, and then I will make up a story that I didn't choose carefully for her."
"Miss Su is about the same age as the Fifth Princess, so I think they have similar tastes. Miss Su has excellent taste, so the things she chooses must be good. I wonder if Miss Su has the time and energy to accompany me to choose something?"
Qin Peiyou's invitation was a bit sudden. Su Yunruo was very surprised and subconsciously glanced at Su Yujin.
Su Yujin smiled knowingly, "We have picked a lot of food, and we can go pick out some ingredients and lanterns later. It is enough for Yan Xiu to accompany me to get things, so you can go with Mr. Qin San."
Seeing Su Yujin said this, Su Yunruo nodded and said, "Then after we finish shopping, let's meet at Juweizhai?"
"Okay." Su Yujin agreed with a smile.
After the matter was settled, the four people split into two groups and went to different places.
Looking at Su Yunruo and Qin Peiyou walking forward talking and laughing, Su Yujin narrowed her eyes and smiled, but He Yanxiu's face was full of displeasure.
"Look at your sullen face, as if the Crown Prince owes you two thousand taels of silver." Su Yujin joked with a smile.
