Chapter 261 Yuan Chaokang's Big Mouth



When Yuan Bohua heard Yuan Chaokang say this, he reached out and gently flicked Yuan Chaokang's hand, "How big a banknote do you want to see?"

Yuan Chaokang didn't care about his father's attitude! He finally understood that there were many things that his father's words alone could not count.

He still has the trump card of his mother!

Yuan Chaokang sat up straighter and tentatively stretched out a finger and waved it in front of Yuan Bohua.

"Ten taels? It's not impossible if you listen!"

Yuan Bohua felt that ten taels was a lot for a child, but if the little guy was obedient and he was given more money to spend, he would be willing to be a good father.

Yuan Chaokang shook his head speechlessly. He didn't care about ten taels. "One thousand taels!"

"Heh!" Yuan Bohua sneered, stood up and walked outside, leaving no room for negotiation.

Anyone who wants to be the sucker can do it, but he doesn't want to.

Yuan Bohua thought that he would just talk to Yue'er about it and then send these two kids over to honor his father-in-law.

Seeing his father leave without even looking back, Yuan Chaokang quickly said, "Father, let's discuss this again. One hundred taels! Just one hundred taels."

Yuan Bohua would never spoil this brat! Although he had money, he was not a sucker.

Yuan Chaokang looked at his father's back as he walked away without stopping, and complained in his heart about his father's stinginess.

However, Yuan Chaokang was the first to compromise, "Okay, ten taels is ten taels."

Yuan Chaokang could only comfort himself: no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat! It's better to have it than not.

Anyway, he originally wanted to learn to read from his grandfather.

Yuan Bohua turned back only after hearing his son's agreement, and smiled triumphantly in his heart.

Yuan Bohua immediately asked Fang Fu outside the door to bring in ten taels of silver.

Yuan Chaokang quickly emphasized, "Twenty taels!"

Yuan Bohua looked at Yuan Chaokang with disapproval, and the meaning was very clear: this was not the price they had just discussed.

Yuan Chaokang smiled and looked at Yuan Bohua, "And there's my brother's ten taels. Father shouldn't be partial, right?"

Yuan Bohua was too embarrassed to admit that he had indeed forgotten about this, so he could only take the twenty taels of silver that Fang Fu brought in, put it directly in front of Yuan Chaokang, and warned him: "Remember to study hard. The most important thing is that you can't do everything for your brother. You have to let him be independent!"

Since his father had said so, Yuan Chaokang quickly nodded in obedience. After all, he had just taken the money from his father, so he felt embarrassed to start arguing.

Yuan Chaokang is still quite trustworthy. After all, he was a man of his word in his previous life.

When Yuan Bohua saw that his youngest son agreed, he turned and left.

He will be leaving again tomorrow, so it is more important to go back to the room early to accompany Yue'er.

As for whether Yuan Chaokang would be obedient, he would check the progress when he came back from vacation. If... humph, he would make this kid Yuan Chaokang spit out double the silver he had eaten.

When Yuan Bohua returned to the room, Zhou Qiongyue had already fallen asleep. When she heard Yuan Bohua come in, she half-closed her eyes and asked, "What took you so long? Is there something wrong with Chang'er?"

Zhou Qiongyue asked as she was about to get up from the bed.

Yuan Bohua immediately reached out and tucked Zhou Qiongyue back into the quilt, explaining in a low voice:

"It's okay, go to sleep! I just chatted with that kid Yuan Chaokang for a while."

Zhou Qiongyue was really tired today, so after hearing Yuan Bohua's words, she lay down for a while and fell asleep.

Yuan Bohua looked at Zhou Qiongyue's sleeping face. He had to leave early tomorrow morning, and he had a lot of things to say to Yue'er.

But when he looked at Yue'er's sleeping face, he couldn't bear to wake her up.

Yuan Bohua turned around and went out to wash up. After washing up, he went to the study and wrote down everything he wanted to tell Zhou Qiongyue, and then went to bed.

When Zhou Qiongyue got up the next day, Yuan Bohua had already left.

She saw a thick stack of letters and a stack of banknotes on the dressing table in the bedroom.

Zhou Qiongyue read the letter first, which explained Yuan Bohua's arrangements for the two children, as well as some words of advice to Zhou Qiongyue.

The whole article has only one theme, 'I am worried about you three, mother and son, so you three must remember to miss him.'

Then Zhou Qiongyue counted the silver notes, which amounted to exactly ten thousand taels. Yuan Bohua had also explained in the letter that the ten thousand taels were not for household use, but for Zhou Qiongyue to buy her favorite jewelry.

When Zhou Qiongyue woke up in the morning, she saw how considerate her husband was, and she couldn't help but feel bad.

With Yuan Bohua gone, not only Zhou Qiongyue was not used to it, even the little brat Yuan Chaokang was a little uncomfortable.

However, this feeling did not last long. Once Zhou Qiongyue's business became busy, Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang also often went to Cheng'enhou to play.

Now that everyone has something new to do, it's not so strange anymore.

Zhou Qiongyue's days in Yuan'an were busy and warm, except for the occasional ignorant people looking for trouble.

For example, today Zhou Qiongyue received another invitation, which was sent by Xie Zixin. Gulan and the others definitely couldn't make the decision on such matters, so they could only hand the invitation to Zhou Qiongyue.

After Zhou Qiongyue looked at it, she asked someone to put it aside.

"Will you go, Princess? This is already the seventh letter this month."

Gulan didn't want their princess to go, but if this matter was not dealt with, it was not a solution for Xie Liangdi to keep harassing their princess.

"If you don't want to go, take this princess's invitation tomorrow and personally deliver these invitations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the palace."

Zhou Qiongyue didn't want to pay any attention to Xie Zixin, and it was even more impossible for her to offend Xie Zixin while she was pregnant.

If anything happens at that time, she won’t be able to explain it even if she has eight mouths.

No matter what Xie Zixin was planning, Zhou Qiongyue had no intention of accepting it at this moment.

Xie Zixin was indeed targeting Zhou Qiongyue, but she didn't want to frame Zhou Qiongyue for the miscarriage. After all, this child was something she had worked so hard to get.

But Xie Zixin is now the Crown Prince's Consort, and she can't wait to show off in front of Zhou Qiongyue. After all, the second prince is now the Crown Prince and will be the Emperor in the future.

Her status will also rise, especially since she is pregnant. The world will belong to her child from now on, and she can't wait to let Zhou Qiongyue see it.

If Zhou Qiongyue knew what Xie Zixin was thinking, she would definitely curse, "Are you sick?"

The next day, the second prince received a stack of invitations sent to the palace by Gulan. The words in the invitations made Yuan Bohua laugh.

A prince's concubine shamelessly asked the prince's wife to come to the palace to pay her respects.

At this time, the Second Prince was extremely grateful that his good friend Yuan Bohua and his younger brother, the Fifth Prince, were not at home.

Otherwise, even if he was the prince, he would be worried about being beaten.

Just as the Crown Prince finished reading these brazen invitations, someone reported back, "Xie Liangdi was punished by the Empress to kneel outside Kunyun Palace."
