In the side hall, the eldest and third young masters Gu were talking in low voices, Xiao Wei and Xiao Zhuang were guarding outside the door, and Xiao Feng and Xiao Sha were standing at the corner of the corridor with Nanny Wang. Thinking of the 40,000 taels of silver, the young palace maid and the young eunuch felt inexplicably nervous, looking around, fearing that something would rush out at this moment and their 40,000 taels of silver would be gone.
Nanny Wang looked down on the two loan sharks for their short-sightedness and said, "It's only 40,000 taels. You are from the palace too. What kind of wealth have you not seen? Stand up straight!"
What does the wealth of the palace have to do with us? Xiaofeng and Xiaosha thought so in their hearts, but they still dared not disobey Wang Ma's words. They straightened their backs and did not dare to look around.
"We won't be able to use it anyway," Nanny Wang muttered again, "Why worry so much?"
Little wind and little sand...
So, Ma’am, you still feel sorry for the money?
Yu Xiaoxiao ate melon seeds in the side hall for a while, and then suddenly asked Gu Xingnuo, "Brother, do you like peanuts?"
At this moment, Young Master Gu's mind was full of thoughts about how to spend the money. When Yu Xiaoxiao suddenly asked him this, Young Master Gu was stunned and said, "What?"
Gu Xinglang said: "The princess likes to eat peanuts."
Yu Xiao: "It's best fried."
Fried peanuts? Gu Xingnuo couldn't figure out what this had to do with the 40,000 taels of silver.
Gu Xinglang said: "I promised the princess that from now on, if the princess wants to eat it, we will eat it every day."
"I heard from Xiao Gu that this mansion is run by my eldest brother," Yu Xiaoxiao looked at her eldest brother Gu very seriously and said, "Brother, can I eat fried peanuts every day?"
Mr. Gu...
Gu Xinglang patted his wife's hand and said, "You don't need to ask big brother about this. I can make the decision."
"You are also the housekeeper?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked: "When did it happen? How come I don't know about it?"
Gu Xinglang had a bitter face. They had never eaten with the people in the mansion. It was Nanny Wang who was in charge of their small kitchen, and she and his wife had never known about this.
"Princess," Gu Xingnuo coughed and said, "You have to ask Nanny Wang about this."
Mouth!
Yu Xiaoxiao immediately glared. Do you have to ask Nanny Wang again? Don't you know that women in menopause should not be messed with? She just wanted to eat a bowl of noodles, but Auntie Fatty wouldn't give her any. She had to eat fried peanuts every day? Yu Xiaoxiao was sad. She might as well dream about her fried peanuts. It was so frustrating!
"Peanuts are not worth much," said Master Gu. "Princess, if you want to eat them, just eat them. Tell the servants to buy more."
"Peanuts are worthless?" Yu Xiaoxiao slammed the table. The monthly salary of her and the dead man was not enough to buy two taels of peanuts. Brother Gu actually told her that peanuts are worthless? (Ah hey, instructor, wake up, this is not the end of the world!)
Gu Xinglang was startled by his wife's excitement. Could it be that the peanuts eaten in the palace were very valuable and priceless? When did peanuts become divided into different grades?
Gu Xingnuo smiled gently. The princess had lived in the palace for a long time and was unfamiliar with worldly affairs. It was normal for her not to know the prices of daily necessities. "It's really not expensive," said Young Master Gu to Yu Xiaoxiao with a smile, "I'll take the princess to buy peanuts tomorrow. Let's buy more and leave them here with the princess."
Yu Xiaoxiao saw that Gu Xingnuo didn't seem to be fooling her, and was immediately struck by the fact that peanuts were very cheap. The more she compared, the more she felt that living in the end times was miserable, right?
Gu Xinglang said to Yu Xiao: "I will accompany you tomorrow." Does his wife need his elder brother to accompany her?
Gu Xingnuo looked at his younger brother and shook his head. This brat was jealous even of such a small matter.
"Brother, you are such a nice person!" Yu Xiaoxiao gave Brother Gu a thumbs up sincerely.
Gu Xinglang said to his eldest brother: "Brother, take the banknote and go."
"There's still something wrong with this banknote," Gu Xingnuo pointed at the banknotes on the table.
Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang were dumbfounded. "Is this fake?" Yu Xiaoxiao shouted to Gu Xingnuo. Marshal Hua gave his daughter fake pocket money? What the hell is fatherly love? Can we still count on it?
Seeing that Her Royal Highness the Princess was about to jump up and down, Young Master Gu hurriedly said, "No, the banknote is real."
Gu Xinglang said: "What's the problem?"
"The banknote is missing. Don't you think Concubine Hua won't look for it?" Gu Xingnuo asked the two people sitting in front of him.
Huh? Yu Xiaoxiao was stunned by the question. Yes, if a bag of melon seeds was missing, Hua Fei would not look for it, but if 40,000 taels of silver were missing, Hua Fei would definitely look for it, right?
Gu Xinglang said: "Can Concubine Hua order someone to leave the palace to look for her?"
Gu Xingnuo said, "That's impossible. However, the banknote has the seal of the Hua family on it. If Concubine Hua ordered someone to go to the bank to cancel the banknote, then we won't get a single penny of the money."
"What should we do then?" Gu Xinglang became anxious now.
"Today, His Majesty took the Phoenix Seal from Concubine Hua," Gu Xingnuo whispered, "At this juncture, she will not send someone out of the palace to do this job overnight."
"But the princess took the banknotes during the day," said Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xingnuo sighed, his two younger brothers, "suddenly lost their money," Young Master Gu taught his younger brothers, "Shouldn't you look for it first? There are hundreds of palace servants and eunuchs in Xiangyun Palace. It will take a whole day to look for it. And Concubine Hua can't look for it openly, she has to look for it secretly. I thought that Concubine Hua is still looking for her money at this moment." Reborn Farm Girl Makes a Comeback
Yu Xiao: "Brother, why did Hua Fei look for it secretly?"
Gu Xingnuo glanced at his younger brothers and sisters. Fortunately, there was a Nanny Wang beside these two. Otherwise, Master Gu really couldn't imagine how these two would live their lives in the future. "Foreign officials secretly sending silver into the palace is a capital crime," Master Gu said to Yu Xiao: "How dare Concubine Hua ask for money from her openly?"
"Haha," Yu Xiao: "I forgot about this. My father is very powerful. It seems that everything is a capital crime if you get involved with him."
This is called the majesty of the emperor. Gu Xingnuo looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and decided not to say anything more. He probably thought that even if he talked himself into death, his brother and sister-in-law would not understand this truth.
"Then shall we go to the bank to withdraw the money now?" Gu Xinglang asked at this time.
Yu Xiaoxiao said, "Let's go now. I just want to have a midnight snack. Xiao Gu, let's go to Dashiqiao."
Gu Xinglang subconsciously looked at Yu Xiaoxiao’s belly. Is there still room for more?
Yu Xiaoxiao looked down at her belly. How could this little bit of food be enough to replenish her energy?
Gu Xingnuo said: "We can't go by ourselves."
"Why?" the young couple asked in unison.
Gu Xingnuo said: "Hua Fei will not make public the fact that the money was lost, but if we go to get the money, Hua Fei will still have something to hold against us. How can we do this?"
My God, Yu Xiaoxiao looked at her brother Gu and sniffed. In her brother Gu’s eyes, this world is very complicated, isn’t it?
