Chapter 493 A Model of Small Kindness for Our Generation
The next day.
As usual, Cui Shenji went to the Wei residence to wake Wei Shuyu up.
When he arrived at the gate of the Wei residence, he saw that Fang Yi'ai was already sitting on the steps waiting for him.
“Remains? So early.” Choi Shin-ki greeted them.
Upon seeing Choi Shin-ki.
Fang Yi'ai stood up and greeted him: "Shenji, aren't we good brothers?"
Unsolicited kindness is either a sign of ulterior motives or theft!
Something unusual must be going on!
"yes!"
Choi Shin-ki nodded seriously, then added, "As long as you don't lend me money, we'll be brothers for life!"
"..."
That's what I meant.
Are you being too polite?
“Shenji, I’m so heartbroken…” Fang Yi’ai cried out.
"Shall I pour you a glass of sugar water?"
"Can't you just listen to me properly?"
"Alright, alright, go ahead and tell me..."
Choi Shin-ki is afraid of Fang Yi-ai.
This guy is rarely serious, so as his good buddy, I'll reluctantly let him vent.
"I had originally planned to save enough money to marry Gao Yang within three years!"
"And guess what happened?"
"You're impotent?" Choi Shin-ki's mouth dropped open.
"You're the one who's impotent!"
"So what's wrong with you?"
"I miscalculated the accounts."
Fang Yi'ai continued to sob, "With the dividends from Bingge, Wenyunge, and Tang, I can save enough money for the betrothal within three years."
"And then I discovered... our ice shop can't sell ice anymore."
"All things considered, it will take a full seven years to save up enough for the betrothal gifts!"
Choi Shin-ki thought for a moment.
It seems so...
Li Shimin did not own any shares in Bingge; it was all the income of his friends.
However, Wei Shuyu revealed the ice recipe last winter, so the Ice Pavilion didn't make any money this year.
"Shenji, just tell me, are you going to help or not?" Fang Yi'ai said sternly.
"I have no money!"
Choi Shin-ki shook his head repeatedly.
"I don't want your money..."
Fang Yi'ai stepped forward and muttered, "We're looking for our elder brother. You'll be doing this and that later, and so on."
"Why don't you say it yourself?" Choi Shin-ki scoffed.
"You're the one I cherish most!" Fang Yi'ai said with a smile.
That makes perfect sense.
Choi Shin-ki raised his head.
Is there anyone else who can wake up the big pot before dawn like me?
"Alright, I'll put in a good word for you."
Then……
Bang bang bang.
There was a loud banging on the door.
This woke Lao Wu from his sleep.
The two of them slipped under Lao Wu's sleeves in a flash.
"Big pot, big pot... I'm here."
well.
Wei Shuyu straightened up.
The first thing I do every morning when I wake up is sigh three times.
"Big pot, something terrible has happened!"
Choi Shin-ki burst into the room and shouted, "Brothers, we're out of money!"
"Who's out of money?" Wei Shuyu asked.
"My friends are out of money, they keep complaining about being poor, and they even ask me for money?"
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu smacked him on the head with his other hand.
"Are you trying to fool me like Fang Yi'ai?"
Every member of the Imperial Academy's army was a junior member of the most prestigious noble families in the Tang Dynasty.
And they're even direct descendants!
If they don't have money to spend, then it's impossible for them not to have money to spend.
"Waaah..." Choi Shin-ki covered his head.
That shouldn't be the case.
As the head of the household, shouldn't you just hand over the reins to me when you hear that your underling is down on his luck?
"Stop sneaking around the door, get in here!" Wei Shuyu shouted.
Fang Yi'ai sneaked in.
He glanced at Choi Shin-ki out of the corner of his eye...
Turns out you're not the eldest brother's most beloved child, I am!
But as soon as this idea was formed...
*Smack*
He got hit on the head.
"Tell me, what kind of trouble are you two causing now?" Wei Shuyu scolded.
The two looked at each other.
Then Choi Shin-ki implicated Fang Yi-ai...
"Big Brother, it's like this, he's short of money again..."
Choi Shin-ki recounted what had happened.
It's Gaoyang again?
Wei Shuyu was speechless.
"That's easy, just don't marry Gao Yang, right?"
"no!"
Fang Yi'ai immediately jumped up and down: "Gao Yang is the love of my life, I can't live without her!"
"..."
You're such a devoted lover.
No wonder he was cuckolded by Gao Yang and was still willing to rebel with her.
Wow.
Qin Shandao also arrived.
Sneaking around and crouching by the door.
Watching the two bastards get beaten up by their older brother made me feel really good.
"Come in."
Wei Shuyu asked, "Xiao Shan, tell them, are you short of money?"
"Brother, I don't need it."
Qin Shandao said in a serious tone, "I don't need to spend money to go out now."
“Look at Xiao Shandao, and then look at you all.”
Wei Shuyu immediately rebuked, "None of you know how to save money!"
"Brother, don't be fooled by Xiao Shandao."
Fang Yi'ai immediately retorted, "Xiao Shandao has been eating, drinking, and having fun these past few days."
Um?
Wei Shuyu immediately turned his gaze to Qin Shandao.
Lying is not a good habit.
"I was just having fun, but I didn't spend any money..."
Qin Shandao said angrily, "When I go out, Yuchi Xiang always pays!"
Holy crap.
Holy crap!
They are role models for us all.
The group's eyes widened immediately, including Wei Shuyu's.
Fang Yi'ai circled Qin Shandao three times to the left and three times to the right...
He examined it carefully.
Even someone as handsome as me can't get a gigolo, but you, a little kid, can?
"Tell me honestly, how did you get Yuchi Xiang to willingly pay?" Fang Yi'ai's expression was extremely serious.
As long as I master this skill of being a kept man, the world is my oyster.
"I don't know."
Qin Shandao said helplessly, "As soon as I say I'll pay, Yuchi Xiang starts crying!"
"Actually, I'm also very troubled..."
"..."
We wish we had this kind of trouble!
This must be a case of playing hard to get, right?
Choi Shin-ki immediately pulled out his notebook to take notes...
The first trick to swindle money from women: play hard to get!
"But brother..."
Just then, Qin Shandao stepped forward again and said, "I don't lack money, but Sister Qiqi seems to be short of money."
Um?
Upon hearing this, Wei Shuyu immediately frowned.
What's wrong with her?
"Sister Qiqi wanted to buy a house in Chang'an, but recently the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice retired and is going back to his hometown, and is willing to sell the house."
Wei Shuyu pondered.
Now that we have a nice house, we should definitely buy it.
Moreover, this place is Chang'an.
Land is incredibly valuable; buying it won't be a loss...
How much is she lacking?
"Around three thousand strings of cash."
Swish.
Wei Shuyu turned to look at the two...
"Big brother... why are you looking at me like that?" Fang Yi'ai's heart skipped a beat.
How much money have you saved?
"Three... less than three hundred strings of cash."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
Fang Yi'ai had paid off so much debt before, so saving up 300 guan would be quite a lot.
"Confiscate it!"
Holy crap.
Fang Yi'ai immediately grabbed Wei Shuyu's arm.
"Brother, no, this is my dowry for marrying Gao Yang."
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu smacked him on the head with his other hand.
"Consider this your investment. I'll try to find some money-making opportunities."
Upon hearing this, Fang Yi'ai stopped crying and making a fuss.
The things my elder brother makes are never bad.
The more you invest, the more you earn.
"Brother, how about I bet another thousand strings of cash?" Fang Yi'ai asked timidly.
Um?
Wei Shuyu suddenly turned around.
Didn't you just say you only had 300 strings of cash? How come you can suddenly come up with so much money?
"Little Jiji, drag him out and beat him."
