Xiao Shaoyin was stunned for a long time, and finally Nanjian reminded her that it was time to send the gold to the bookstore, and Xiao Shaoyin came back to her senses.
"Well, let's go."
Originally, the agreement with the bookstore owner was to deliver the goods in three days, but the refugee incident suddenly occurred. Xiao Shaoyin was busy secretly contacting grain merchants and supplies for Tang Yu, so the time had to be postponed.
Now is a good time to send the gold to the bookstore while Tang Yu is away.
But perhaps because Tang Yu suddenly gave him a hairpin, Xiao Shaoyin now unconsciously had a smile on his face.
This made Nan Jian shudder, but he had to admit that Tang Yu had good taste. This hairpin was barely worthy of Shao Yin. What was the use of that wooden hairpin before?
It's so ugly.
Xiao Shaoyin had already had the servants prepare the carriage, and now all he had to do was pack the gold and send it to the bookstore. He had chosen this time, knowing that Tang Yu wouldn't be back for a while, so he confidently opened the backyard door and had the servants drive the carriage over.
After packing the gold box by box, Xiao Shaoyin watched the servants loading it onto the carriage. But at this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly rang out.
"Shao Yin!"
Tang Yu walked in slowly, leading the horse, and a clear and gentle voice sounded.
Xiao Shaoyin's eyelids twitched, but she calmly signaled the servants to lower the curtain of the carriage. After confirming that there was no sign, Xiao Shaoyin glanced at Nanjian lightly.
Nan Jian reluctantly turned back into a kitten, and then cooperated very well and snuggled into Xiao Shaoyin's arms.
So when Tang Yu walked in, he saw this peaceful scene—
Xiao Shaoyin, now dressed in red, held a snow-white cat in her arms. Her hair was still tied in a simple bun, but the peony hairpin added a touch of charm without being coquettish. The gilded peonies on her body stretched from her waist to her ankles, looking perfectly matched with the hairpin.
Tang Yu smiled and handed a large bunch of lotus flowers to Xiao Shaoyin, and asked softly:
"I saw it on the way back. Do you like it?"
"like."
At this moment, Xiao Shaoyin's eyes were full of the pink lotus. He put the little white cat down without any reluctance, then took the lotus with both hands and couldn't help closing his eyes and sniffing it.
The fragrance of the lotus slowly spread all the way to Xiao Shaoyin's heart.
A wave of joy was drawn out by the fragrance of the lotus. Xiao Shaoyin tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth and asked reservedly, knowingly: "Is it for me?"
Tang Yu laughed and said, "Of course it's for you."
After receiving a satisfactory reply, Xiao Shaoyin's eyes were filled with a mixture of smiles and charm. She stretched out her snow-white fingertips and gently moved the lotus petals, murmuring between her lips:
"I love so much……"
"I'm glad you like it, but... why are there three carriages parked in this yard?" Tang Yu couldn't help but ask when he accidentally saw the carriages on the side.
A light flashed in Xiao Shaoyin's eyes, but in a moment she had already thought of a reason:
"I ordered a bit too much grain from the grain merchant earlier, and I was planning to have it delivered back. I was worried that sending it directly would attract too much attention, so I had someone load it into the carriage."
"Is that so..." Tang Yu nodded in understanding, indicating that he understood.
So Xiao Shaoyin waved her hand, signaling the servants to lead the carriage out.
This set of movements was smooth and flowing, and Shao Yin didn't seem to be in any panic at all.
Nanjian, who had turned into a kitten, was silently amazed.
But sometimes accidents happen...
The wheel of a horse-drawn carriage happened to run over a small stone, and the whole carriage suddenly staggered because of the heavy weight.
The fall was not a big deal, but the box of gold that was hastily loaded on the outside of the carriage made a shattering sound, and then a few gold bars fell out.
The golden light on the ground almost blinded Tang Yu's eyes.
He leaned over, picked up the gold bar and asked, "What is this?"
There was a silence.
Xiao Shaoyin frowned, as if she had not expected such an accident to happen.
He was about to say something, but Tang Yu had already gotten into the carriage.
Nanjian: “…Oh no.”
Discovered...
It would not matter if he did not look at it, but Tang Yu opened the box and found that it was all gold.
Tang Yu suddenly remembered Shao Yin telling him that he still had a lot of gold...
It turns out that what you said is true!
But why does Shokun carry so much gold? What is it used for?
For some reason, he had a vague intuition in his heart, that is -
These three carriages should be filled with gold.
Judging from the size of this box, there must be at least five hundred taels here!
With his experienced eyes, Tang Yu estimated the approximate number at once.
Wait…had he heard that number somewhere before?
Tang Yu frowned and thought, and suddenly remembered that the protagonist mentioned that the bookstore owner said someone wanted to buy out his books.
But who would spend so much money to buy a storybook?
Who has so much money?
The name "Xiao Shaoyin" gradually emerged in Tang Yu's mind.
Is this really such a coincidence? Is Shao Yin really that stupid?
What is more shameful than Shao Yin secretly reading the notebook she wrote is that Shao Yin actually wants to buy all her notebooks.
Tang Yu then spoke with great difficulty, "Shao Yin, you're not going to send this gold to the bookstore, are you?"
"How did you know that?" Xiao Shaoyin looked at Tang Yu who accurately stated the whereabouts of the gold, with some confusion in her eyes.
"Well, the bookstore owner gave me some news, saying that someone wants to buy out the book..." Tang Yu sighed.
He never imagined that Shao Yin would be so stupid as to spend so much money just to buy out a storybook that was only used for entertainment.
"I see..." Xiao Shaoyin still held the lotus in her hand, but from Tang Yu's sigh, she could tell that he didn't seem to agree. But what if she insisted on doing this?
Will Tang Yu stop me?
Xiao Shaoyin felt complicated and wanted to turn around and go back to her room as if to escape, but Tang Yu gently pulled her back.
Tang Yu said to him sincerely:
"Shao Yin, why spend all this money? If you want to read it, I'll write it for you."
If Tang Yu had known this day would come, he should have given the manuscript only to Shao Yin.
That’s five hundred taels!
That's a full five hundred taels!
The system was stunned: "Host, don't you think it's shameful to be discovered writing this?"
Tang Yu sighed secretly and looked at the system with a mature look:
"Silly General, that's five hundred taels of gold!"
If he had five hundred taels, why would he feel ashamed? He would probably have been overjoyed.
