Chapter 79 Ruanruan loves me the most
Li Runrun felt a burning sensation on her face, and then she saw the prince casually put the banknote next to him.
Why not give it back to her?
The prince held out his hand: "This is the handkerchief for the prince, let me see, what a treasure it is, Shancheng keeps talking about it in my ear."
Li Runrun handed out the handkerchief, and when she took her hand back, she reached out for the banknotes, but finally withdrew her hand timidly.
The prince recognized it at a glance: "It's a colorful cat."
Gu Yuanqing tried to take it, but the prince patted the back of his hand. He then looked at it carefully and nodded, "This was painted by the prince, right?"
Li Runrun didn't expect that they all knew about the things that the prince had done, so she didn't say anything.
The prince looked at the handkerchief and turned it over, only to see that the two cats on both sides were exactly the same, but the surrounding scenery was different. It was not the color that was different, but the scenery was different.
The prince immediately saw the clue and said, "This is the most difficult one."
This is Sanyi embroidery, which is very difficult. No one can do it except her.
Li Ruanruan nodded: "This is not for sale to the public."
Gu Yuanqing also noticed its beauty. He really wanted to reach out and take it, but because the prince refused to give it to him, he had to give up.
But he was envious, and then he said: "The prince is so lucky. By the way, why hasn't the prince come yet? It's time to come."
As he was speaking, the door of the private room was pushed open. Ye Yunchu seemed to be in a hurry, with a cold air around him, and his whole body was cold and sharp.
He raised his eyes and glanced into the private room. Ye Qiaoqiao had already stood up and stepped aside.
Li Runrun also hurried to stand up.
Ye Yunchu sat down directly. He held Li's soft hand and pushed her back when she was about to stand up. Then he looked at the handkerchief in the prince's hand.
He reached out and took it: "Isn't this my handkerchief?"
The prince was amused: "How can it be yours? It can't be that I bought it from the store owner."
"This raccoon is mine. I'm the shopkeeper. When did His Royal Highness buy it from me? How come I don't know about it?"
Ye Yunchu turned over the handkerchief, then covered his mouth and nose with it and took a deep breath of the cold chrysanthemum fragrance from the little maid.
He began to scold again, "My handkerchief fell with you early this morning. You should have kept it, but you took it out to show off. You knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Master Gu didn't have it, yet you insisted on showing it to them. Isn't that making them even more jealous of me?"
Ye Yunchu poked Li Ruanruan's forehead and said, "You are so ignorant."
Li Ruanruan lowered her head and dared not say a word. Is it true that she will not be beaten like this?
Sure enough, the prince opposite him didn't change his expression, but Gu Yuanqing's mouth twitched.
Finally, Gu Yuanqing picked up the teapot and took a cup to pour tea for Ye Yunchu: "After talking so much, have a cup of tea."
Ye Yunchu put the handkerchief into his arms and kept it close to his body.
Li Ruanruan noticed his action and lowered her head to sip her tea.
The prince is always like this, taking her things openly and as if it were his due.
He was certain that she would give it to him.
The handkerchief is important, but the silver is even more important.
Li Runrun was also a little helpless, and then she saw the prince folding the stack of banknotes, which seemed to be confiscated.
Li Runrun widened her eyes, then pulled Ye Yunchu's hand.
Ye Yunchu thought that the concubine was asking him to be more restrained, and was about to tell her that he couldn't be more restrained.
This little concubine is really not on guard at all. How could she take out the handkerchief that was going to be given to him and show it to others? Doesn't she know that such fine Suzhou embroidery will attract a lot of attention?
He almost lost April again.
But he saw Li Runrun looking at him anxiously, thinking that Li Runrun was afraid that he would offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Ye Yunchu gave Li Runrun a reassuring look.
Li Runrun watched helplessly as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince put her banknotes into his sleeves, while Gu Yuanqing's eyes stopped twitching and the corners of his lips even rose as he lowered his head to drink tea.
Li Ruanruan's hands rested on the table. She was also anxious, but the prince was still showing off his handkerchiefs and kneading her hands lovingly: "I told you not to embroider. I already have several handkerchiefs, and you embroider a new pattern for me."
The two of them were not on the same wavelength at all, and Li Runrun had no choice but to admit defeat in the end. After all, the other party was the Crown Prince, the future emperor and the ruler of a country.
The prince seemed to have grown tired of Ye Yunchu's boasting and turned to business: "Have all the disaster victims in Zhuangzi been resettled?"
Ye Yunchu also became serious: "Everything has been settled. I believe we can spend the winter in peace."
Gu Yuanqing praised him, "Xiuzhu's idea is really good. He actually thought of letting the disaster victims work in the winery. Not only will they earn some money, but we can also make up for some of the disaster relief expenses next year."
The prince nodded and said, "When the spring comes next year, it will be quite an expense to arrange for them to return home."
The prince then looked at Ye Yunchu and said, "Xiuzhu is the owner of the Su Embroidery Shop, which is currently the most profitable shop in the capital. Could you please donate a little?"
Gu Yuanqing immediately put down the tea he was sipping and said, "Well, this is a great deed, I have to donate it. If I had a Suzhou embroidery shop, I would donate it anyway. Without ten thousand taels of gold, I can't afford it."
Ye Yunchu sneered and kicked Gu Yuanqing under the table: "Okay, if you give me 10,000 taels, I'll give you 10,000 taels. How about that?"
Before Gu Yuanqing could even speak, the prince clapped his hands, "That's fantastic. Shancheng's storybooks have become incredibly popular in all the major cities, so he must be able to come up with the ten thousand taels of gold. Xiuzhu is even more so, so I'll be waiting for the banknotes to arrive."
The emphasis is on ten thousand taels of gold.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He didn't give Gu Yuanqing and Ye Yunchu a chance to react. He stood up and left with the secret guards.
He left.
Gu Yuanqing slammed the table and said, "I let you brag, and now you've dragged me into the ditch too."
Ye Yunchu seemed calm and composed, even pouring himself a cup of tea and praising it, "This tea is good."
"If you like drinking, drink more. It's worth ten thousand taels of gold. You seem to be smart normally, but today your cleverness backfired. You deserve it!"
"I'm not short of money. You should use your brain and think about who is setting a trap for whom."
Ye Yunchu pulled Li Ruanruan up and called Ye Qiaoqiao, "Let's go. Tea worth ten thousand taels of gold is just like this. Brother Shancheng, I don't think you've seen anything good. Drink more."
Gu Yuanqing finally realized what was going on. He slammed the table, pointed at Ye Yunchu's back and gritted his teeth, "I knew it wouldn't be easy to make money from a book based on you. I made a little money but you asked me to pay you back tenfold! Ye Yunchu! Who has a heart as dark as you? You're such a black-hearted person!"
Ye Yunchu ignored Gu Yuanqing's cursing and left with Li Runrun.
Ye Qiaoqiao turned around and glanced at Gu Yuanqing, feeling quite distressed.
Finally, she whispered, "Mr. Gu, if you want Su embroidery, you can draw the pattern you want and give it to the shopkeeper for a deposit, and then tell him that it was me who asked you to do it."
Gu Yuanqing was still angry. He nodded when he heard that, then looked up and found that he was the only one left in the private room.
Wait, that definitely wasn't an auditory hallucination, there's such good news.
Seeing Ye Yunchu happy, Li Runrun thought about it and decided not to tell him that the banknotes were taken away by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
She seemed to know why Ye Yunchu was so short of money. He always asked for donations or something, and was so generous and extravagant. No wonder he was short of money.
He breathed a sigh of relief again, as long as it wasn't any of the prince's bad debts.
It is good to do more of this kind of things for the country and the people.
Li Runrun was very supportive and wanted to stay up late to embroider a few more pieces to share some of the pressure for the prince.
No matter what, he is the only husband in her life. She feels this way, so how can she not support her husband's career?
Just as Li Ruanruan was smiling shyly, she saw a handkerchief falling in front of her.
Li Runrun looked up and saw Xu Wan sitting in front of the window, looking down.
When she saw Ye Yunchu, she actually smiled gently, then turned her head and scolded the maid beside her: "Why don't you go down and pick it up? How can you make the prince laugh at you?"
At this moment, Ye Yunchu said to Li Ruanruan, "Pick up the handkerchief and give it to Miss Xu."
Li Runrun's heart suddenly ached. She didn't know if it was because the prince had let go of her hand, or because Xu Wan's smile was too charming just now. This smile was directed at the prince with a strong purpose, and he really looked at it for a long time.
Li Ruanruan saluted: "Yes."
She was just a maidservant, how could she have such a desire to have the prince as her husband?
