Chapter 124 The emperor is a monkey wearing a crown, and the queen is a monkey wearing a phoenix crown, right?

Lin Mo and Bai Xiao were far away, which showed that they were more careful and did not squat in front of others to eat melons.

"An Lang, we haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss me?" The eldest lady came out with great difficulty and naturally didn't want to go back.

An Mi knew that the general was still a little dissatisfied with him. If the general knew that they had a secret meeting, his impression of him would be even worse.

"Miss, our relationship is not a one-time thing. The Grand Marshal is not satisfied with me yet. If he knows that we are having a secret meeting, our relationship may become even more difficult. Besides, it will not be good for your reputation."

"Don't worry, I will definitely pass the exam this year. I will marry you in style and will not let others look down on you."

An Mi also knew why the Grand Marshal made these requirements for him.

If his daughter grew up to be rich and noble and fell in love with a poor scholar who had nothing, he would not want his daughter to be with this poor scholar. Although

he has made some money over the years, it is nothing compared to the high-ranking officials and their families.

The money he made might be enough for ordinary people to live for a lifetime, but for such a rich lady, the money he made might not be as valuable as a set of jewelry.

He also didn't want his beloved to live a hard life with him in the future, so he would work hard.

"Hui'er, be obedient. You are the elder sister and you should set a good example for your two younger sisters. If they know about this, what if they learn it? There are many bad men in the world. We love each other so I am willing to respect and love you, but no one can guarantee that the person they meet in the future is a gentleman."

An Mi touched the eldest lady's head and spoke in an especially gentle tone.

Lin Mo was moved by what he heard. [This An Mi is really good. Although he loves money, he is gentle and elegant. He doesn't have any taint of money at all. He is also a gentleman.]

Bai Xiao said while eating the candy in Lin Mo's pocket: [That's right. This is someone I recognize. And there is a reason why he likes money. An Mi's parents died early, and he passed the imperial examination to become a scholar. After passing the imperial examination, he made money by copying books for others.]

[Later, he saved up little by little, and then came to the capital. Anyway, he is a miserable person. If you live in a honey pot since childhood, then he lives in a Chinese medicine pot. This person was really miserable when he was young. 】

The people who were eavesdropping at the back were also a little moved. It was really not easy to grow up in such an environment and still be so upright.

The general sighed slightly. This kid was a good one, but he also had to think about his daughter.

Passing the imperial examination was his only requirement for this kid. As long as he could pass the imperial examination, he could more or less help a little and make his daughter's life better.

If he couldn't even pass the imperial examination, then no matter how good this man was, he would not be willing to marry his daughter to him.

His daughter grew up in luxury. She was not as good as the princesses in the palace, but she was not much worse.

Maybe now she will be blinded by her feelings and can go through hardships with this boy, but in the future, men and women will be together for a lifetime. Although they can divorce in the future, who wants their daughter to bear the reputation of divorce for no reason.

No matter how unwilling the eldest lady was, An Mi still sent her back.

Lin Mo gave him a thumbs up in his heart.

Now that the melon has been eaten, Lin Mo took Bai Xiao to the street to eat and drink.

By the way, they also set up a stall to tell fortunes. Their fortune-telling business is very good now, and some people even come to squat with them.

Bai Xiao also became a famous master Bai.

"Hahaha, I made so much money today. Now I can understand why An Mi likes making money so much. It turns out that making money is really addictive."

Lin Mo looked at the money bag in his hand and laughed until his back teeth were exposed.

All the money Bai Xiao made is now with her. She is no longer a person who waits for pocket money every month. She now has a lot of private money (although this private money is earned by Bai Xiao).

And she also found that her mother gave her a lot more monthly allowance during this period, almost twice as much as before.

This is what her mother said, saying that she needs to dress up well now that she is older. When she has nothing to do, she can also go out and buy some jewelry and clothes by herself. Girls should not always dress sloppily every day.

Lin Mo agreed, but he spent the money on food.

Bai Xiao said while chewing on a candied haws: "When can we go out and have some fun? It's boring to stay in the capital every day. Is there any big news to eat recently?"

He found that the capital was not as exciting as before.

In the past, there were many cases of affair, illegitimate children, and new news almost every day, but now these officials and wealthy businessmen are too quiet and honest.

Lin Mo thought for a moment: "The Empress' birthday will be in a while. Her birthday party is usually held in the palace outside. We should be able to go with her then. You can shrink and hide in my clothes, and I will take you to play!"

Bai Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this. Why didn't he think of this?

When they went to court the next day, the two of them started talking about what to do on the Empress' birthday.

Bai Xiao: [Let's not talk about playing first. Have you prepared your birthday present? You are not going to carve another wooden sculpture, are you?]

On the emperor's birthday, he gave a monkey with a crown. On the empress's birthday, you will not give a monkey with a phoenix crown!

Just thinking about it makes me feel a little scary and explosive!

At this moment, everyone present had the same idea as Bai Xiao. The prince was a little worried about his mother.

Last time, the monkey given by his father was given to him. He placed it in the study and looked at it every day when he was tired.

What if his mother gave him this monkey again? Would she put it with the princess?

Lin Mo chuckled. She had prepared the gift a long time ago. How could she give the same thing twice?

[You underestimated me. I gave the emperor a wood carving last time. I can't give the same one this time. I carved a jade carving myself! I even hired a master to teach me. The master said I have a talent! ]

Bai Xiao was silent for two seconds and then said: [But the last person who said you have talent was the one who played the suona, and then you played the suona at your own birthday party.]

Everyone present: ...

Your talent is a bit scary!
