Chapter 313 Tell me, how much silver?
"Hey, I'm speaking to you. Huh? What are you doing here?"
As she spoke, her voice changed, and she stared blankly at Li Junping.
Among the crowd, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one spoke for a moment.
The young princess swallowed hard, glancing to her left. There was that brat who had scolded her. Then, looking towards Li Junping, she saw the beautiful woman he called "Mother."
Then, this time she was silent for a moment, then turned and ran.
When he turned around and saw Yu Chuan, he was so angry that he wanted to hit her, but he pulled his hand back just before it touched her.
"Why won't you tell me who's inside?"
Yu Chuan: "Your subordinate is guilty, but why did you run away?"
Yu Chuan belatedly ran back and realized that he hadn't done anything wrong, so why had he run away?
The young princess was also taken aback: "Yes, why did I run back?"
Yu Chuan said leisurely, "Princess, why don't we go back to the post station?"
Putting aside everything else, the fact that the two of them entered someone's courtyard and then inexplicably ran away is hard to explain. For some reason, she felt inexplicably ashamed. Thankfully, she didn't listen to the princess and go begging for food; otherwise, she didn't even want to think about being kicked out.
"Nonsense! Why would I, this princess, want to go back? I came here to find Li Junping and wait for his father with him. Isn't this perfect?"
"Then you're going back?"
"Let's go back then!"
Yu Chuan gave a thumbs up in admiration: "You're amazing, Princess."
Anyway, she didn't really want to step through that door again.
The young princess snorted coldly, then turned and headed towards the door. However, upon reaching the gate, she stopped and tightly closed her eyes.
Damn it, I've already bragged about this, what am I going to do now?
She gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and finally forced herself to go inside. She raised her chin and said, "Um, Li Junping, come out for a moment. I have something to say to you."
"I'm not going."
Ping'er replied indifferently, then without even looking at her, she picked up some cooked vegetables and put them in her mouth.
The young princess held back for a while, then turned and went out again.
Yu Chuan greeted her: "Princess, how is it?"
The young princess was speechless for a while. The next second, she stepped on Yu Chuan's shoe and turned to leave.
Yu Chuan winced in pain, but still hurried after her, saying, "Princess, Princess, please slow down. Aren't we going?"
The next second, the young princess stopped in her tracks, then gritted her teeth and turned around again: "I refuse to believe that I can't handle a little brat?"
She stormed into the room, yelling, "Li Junping, I'm telling you, from today onwards, you're staying with me. I don't care whose house this is, you're coming back to your dilapidated shack right now! And wait for your father to come back!"
After she finished yelling, she secretly exhaled and then looked at Ping'er with her neck stiff.
Ping'er looked over and stared at her for a while: "Xiao Nianjun, are you out of your mind? My family is all here, why should I go with you?" After thinking for a moment, he added: "Also, this house is ours, we can stay if we want. As for that dilapidated house you mentioned, we will naturally go back tonight."
The young princess was stunned.
The young princess was stunned.
The young princess was dumbfounded.
The young princess ran out again.
The courtyard was left with only people staring blankly.
This time, Yu Chuan overheard everything from behind. When his princess came out, she instinctively covered her face. It took her a while to react before she removed her hand—it wasn't her who was embarrassed!
The air fell into a deathly silence once more. Finally, Yu Chuan stepped forward and asked softly, "Princess, shall we really go back to the post station?"
The young princess was also thinking about returning to the post station, but when someone else mentioned it, a nameless anger welled up inside her.
Then, once again, the young princess walked in with her head held high and her body swaying.
"I will only say this once: I want to stay here! Now, how much silver?"
Upon hearing the word "silver," Jiang Nuanzhi's face softened with a gentle smile: "How much can you give me?"
The young princess stared blankly at Jiang Nuanzhi's face for a moment, then quickly regained her composure and said stiffly, "How about twenty taels a day?"
Twenty taels a day!!!
Jiang Nuanzhi was screaming inwardly, but seeing that this little money-grubber seemed even easier to fool than the average person, she coughed reservedly and said, "Isn't twenty taels a bit too little?"
The young princess's eyes darted around on Jiang Nuanzhi's face: "So how many do you want?"
Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Jiang Nuanzhi smiled even more gently. However, before she could speak, she heard a surprised voice from behind her.
"Princess! It really is you!"
Afu carried firewood down the mountain and saw the person in the distance. He felt that the face was familiar. As he got closer, he heard the little princess shout this. He immediately called out loudly, "Princess, do you need a place to stay? Our young master has a place to stay! It doesn't even cost twenty taels. You can just give him two taels a day!"
When Jiang Nuanzhi saw Afu's pathetic behavior, she was completely disgusted. That idiot! He's engaging in malicious competition!
"Get out of my way, who are you?" The young princess rolled her eyes at him. "Do I look like someone who's short of money? Who do you think you are with two taels of silver?"
Then, her gaze fell on Jiang Nuanzhi: "That beauty, I'll give you fifty taels! How about it?"
Upon hearing this, Afu was so excited he almost jumped up: "Princess, it's me! I'm the pageboy in front of Young Master Xie. I even served you tea before. Don't you remember?"
The young princess blinked, finally giving him a look, but then shook her head again: "No recollection. What? Has your young marquis also been exiled here?"
Xie Liangchen was also a beauty. She was only slightly less beautiful than the general.
“Your Highness is right. Your Highness, why don’t you stay in our courtyard? Our courtyard is the largest in the entire Qingquan Village, and it even has side rooms. All the other courtyards are occupied by these peasants. How can you, a woman of noble birth, endure such humiliation?”
The young princess stared at him intently, then suddenly took a step back: "You go to the side first, you smell."
He turned to Jiang Nuanzhi and said, "Beauty, say something! Is it okay or not? If not, I'll give you a hundred taels a day."
After these words were spoken, the surroundings fell silent once again.
For a fleeting moment, Jiang Nuanzhi thought to herself, "This woman is definitely rich. If she were to throw five million taels at me and ask me to leave Li Rong, it wouldn't be such a bad idea."
"dream!"
"Don't even mention one hundred taels, even ten thousand taels won't do."
Just as Jiang Nuanzhi was thinking about how to agree without seeming too greedy, Ping'er beside her uttered these words the next second.
Ping'er hadn't finished speaking, and even added righteously, "Xiao Nianjun, our whole family doesn't care about your stinking money!"
