Chapter 54 I'm not interested in money
Lin Xiaoyue raised her thumbs, pointed to the empty plot of land behind her, and said, "Because Brother Liang built a yard for me for free, I just cooked a few meals for him as a reward."
Jingyi stared at the overgrown ground with wide eyes and asked in disbelief, "How can this place be compared to the capital? The capital is extremely expensive, but this place is worthless. Are you stupid? How about this? I'll arrange servants and maids for you, and a carriage, and my princess's mansion will pay for your monthly wages. Is that all right?"
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry! A nest of gold or silver is not as good as my own nest of grass. I'm not interested in money!"
Jingyi is really at a loss now. If a woman is not interested in money, what else can interest her?
"So you want a handsome man? I can buy the most popular prostitute in the capital and give it to you!"
Lin Xiaoyue almost choked on her own saliva. This princess was too bold. She couldn't just say she didn't like men, right? Wouldn't that make her a lesbian?
Facing everyone's gaze, Lin Xiaoyue said righteously, "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness. I'm truly unworthy of it!" But she would go and see it when she had the chance...
Jingyi was rejected again and again, her face falling as if someone had died in her family. Finally, she pointed to the side and said, "Brother Jing, build me a yard here too. I'm tired of staying in the capital, I want to live here for a while!"
Liang Jingyao would never cause trouble for himself. He frowned and said, "Jingyi, don't be so willful. I heard the news from outside that King Jingnan has sent people to look for you. He won't allow you to live here! Moreover, our engagement was impossible when my parents left the capital. Jingyi, don't come to me anymore!"
Jingyi certainly knew what kind of personality her father had. Although he doted on her extremely, he would never allow her to disobey!
She grabbed Liang Jingyao's hand tightly and begged, "Brother Jing, our marriage was arranged by the Emperor. As long as the Emperor doesn't cancel it, no one can do anything! Otherwise, you can hold me back for a few days. I will definitely go back when I've had enough fun here! I've been to all the fun places in the capital. If I stay any longer, I'll go crazy! I beg you, Brother Jing!"
Liang Jingyao looked into Jingyi's eyes and asked, "Although I told you before that I live here, how did you know when Zhan Ying came? Without him, you can't get in!"
Jingyi turned her head away and whispered, "Cheng Feng sent me a message saying that there was a woman here who seduced you and asked me not to be careless. I was just impulsive and ran here. Brother Jing, don't be angry!"
"Cheng Feng!" Liang Jingyao narrowed his eyes dangerously. It seemed that he had been too indulgent towards Cheng Feng!
At this moment, Zhan Ying rushed over and said to Jingyi, panting, "Prince Jingnan's men are almost in Yangming Town. Princess, hurry up and leave! If Prince Jingnan gets angry, no one will be happy!"
Jingyi bit her lip and said reluctantly, "But I'm tired of eating all the delicious food in Beijing. Brother Jing, you see I've lost a lot of weight. You must feel sorry for me, so let Miss Lin come with me!"
Lin Xiaoyue said expressionlessly, "I don't like the capital. I don't give face to anyone! However, I heard that Jueweilou releases new products every month. Princess, why don't you go and try it!"
Jingyi hesitated for a moment and asked, "What if I try it and it still doesn't taste good? Will you cook for me?"
Lin Xiaoyue really hates this kind of woman who is completely self-centered, willful, unruly, arrogant, and full of superiority!
In order to avoid getting herself into trouble, she took a deep breath and said, "Then you'll starve for three days and three nights. I guarantee you'll want to eat everything you see!"
Jingyi didn't know what was wrong with these words. She just felt uncomfortable listening to them. But Zhan Ying said that his father's men were about to arrive in Yangming Town. If she didn't show up, it would be difficult for her to sneak out again in the future!
She picked up the kettle from the bamboo basket and said, "Okay, then, let's go! But you have to give me this pot of ginger and jujube tea!"
Lin Xiaoyue felt a little painful. She had spent a lot of time making this pot of tea, but she hadn't even drunk a sip!
Forget it, at least it can bring peace and quiet to her ears. She waved her hand and said, "Take it away, I won't give it to you!"
"Are you really not going to keep me?" Jingyi looked at Lin Xiaoyue and then at Liang Jingyao. Both of them looked indifferent. She was so angry that her liver hurt!
Zhan Ying stepped forward and urged, "Princess, hurry up! It will be too late if you are any later!"
Jingyi stomped her feet fiercely, "Don't regret it!"
After saying that, she turned around and left with the thermos in her arms.
After Jingyi left, Lin Xiaoyue looked down at the bamboo basket with only two bowls left and asked, "You're the one who brought this person here, right?"
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Yes. Jingyi and I do have an engagement, but my family was expelled from the capital for some reason, so the engagement is also off. I did this for Jingyi's own good. One day I will return to the capital, and then she won't have to make a difficult choice!"
Lin Xiaoyue certainly knew the ancients' obsession with marrying someone of equal social status, let alone being the princess's consort. Given Brother Liang's current situation, anyone would drive the princess away!
Of course, except for the brainless Cheng Feng!
"Then Cheng Feng, what are you going to do? This man is loyal but lacks intelligence. Keeping him here will only become a hidden danger!" Lin Xiaoyue knew that Liang Jingyao would still remember their old friendship. Anyway, if Liang Jingyao didn't take action, she would consider moving to Dongyuan Town alone and living with Yunyun.
Seeing Lin Xiaoyue staring at him, Liang Jingyao laughed and said, "Am I such an indecisive person in your heart?"
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "If you hesitate when you should make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. Brother Liang, think about it yourself. I have no right to interfere in your affairs."
Liang Jingyao had never seen such an intelligent, decisive and calm woman. Sometimes he felt that he was not as good as Lin Xiaoyue!
"Don't worry, I will never show mercy to traitors!"
Lin Xiaoyue nodded and said, "That's great! I don't like being bothered all the time! You go ahead and do your work. I'll go back and get another pot of water."
Liang Jingyao looked at Lin Xiaoyue's back as she turned around, and couldn't help but call her and said, "Aren't you curious about me?"
Curious? Of course, but Lin Xiaoyue knew that curiosity kills the cat, so she didn't want to know.
She turned around, shook her head and said, "I never ask about other people's privacy. Similarly, I don't like others asking about my privacy."
Liang Jingyao asked again: "If I am in danger one day, will you come to save me?"
Lin Xiaoyue felt that Liang Jingyao was acting strangely today. Why were his questions so stupid? Was he stimulated by the princess's journey to find her husband? Shouldn't he be asking her that question?
She simply answered bluntly, "We have some friendship, so I wouldn't go so far as to watch someone die without helping him, but I can't risk my own life to save him!"
Liang Jingyao had a complicated expression, and after a long while he nodded and said, "Yes, you must remember what you said today!"
