Chapter 28 Asking for Money
Lu Lingyun knew from the look on his face that they were quarreling again.
Facts have proved that love is love and life is life.
Love alone cannot stop the trivialities in life, and we have to quarrel when we have to.
"Prince." Lu Lingjun pretended not to know and looked at Cheng Yunshuo happily when he was unhappy.
"What is it?"
"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. I have drawn up a gift list based on the list of people I have visited in previous years. Do you want to add anything?"
Cheng Yunshuo glanced at it casually and said, "That's all."
"Okay." Lu Lingyun took back the gift list. In addition to the relatives and friends that the Marquis' Mansion usually interacted with, this year she also added the Lu family and the Wang family. Even if the aristocratic families did not visit each other in person during the holidays, they still had to exchange gifts.
"Besides, my father is not in good health and cannot move around. I am thinking that we should go to the other courtyard to reunite with our parents during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. What do you think?"
Cheng Yunshuo had no objection, "You can arrange it."
"Then I'll arrange it." Lu Lingjun didn't say anything more and told someone to do the job.
When she finished arranging the work, she saw Cheng Yunshuo still sitting next to her, drinking tea sip by sip, unlike before when he would leave quickly after talking.
"My Lord, is there anything else you need?" Lu Lingjun asked.
There's nothing wrong with Cheng Yunshuo.
I simply don't want to go back.
He had just had a quarrel with Xing Dairong and was reluctant to go back to Yaoguangge. As for Lu Lingjun, she was always so simple and elegant and never quarreled with him. Sitting next to her, Cheng Yunshuo calmed down unconsciously and had a cup of tea to take a break.
"Nothing." Cheng Yunshuo, who was called, looked at Lu Lingyun and made some small talk, "I see you will be very busy as the housekeeper."
How could Lu Lingyun not see his little thoughts? She was too lazy to point it out. She sat beside him and drank tea. "Fortunately, there are not many worries in the mansion. Father and mother have gone to the other courtyard to recuperate. There are few people in the mansion, so there are not many things to worry about."
"Do you have many relatives from your mother's family?" Cheng Yunshuo asked after finding a topic to start the conversation.
"Yeah." Lu Lingyun nodded. "I have three brothers, six sisters, and many uncles, aunts, and wives. Every time there are festivals, our home is so busy that there is no place to hide and have some free time."
"Are they the ones I saw last time I came back?"
"right."
"There are quite a lot of them." Cheng Yunshuo didn't pay much attention to who was there. He only remembered that Liu's room was full of women. "Don't you find them annoying?"
Lu Lingyun held up the teacup and smiled at him, "Sir, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
It was the first time Cheng Yunshuo saw her like this. He was stunned for a moment and then started laughing.
While he was with Lu Lingyun, he chatted with her in a casual manner.
After the chat, Cheng Yunshuo felt that he was much lighter. The feeling of chatting with Lu Lingjun was completely different from that with Qiu Ling and Xing Dairong.
When chatting with Qiu Ling, Qiu Ling would always coax him and please him, hoping that every word she said would come from his heart.
There is no need to say much about Xing Dairong. He is sweet when things are sweet and very bitter when things are bitter. Most of the time, he has to compromise.
As for Lu Lingjun, he didn't need to make any adjustments, nor would he be flattered by her. She was just calm and at ease, like an old friend, which made him feel comfortable in a rare way.
He sat with her until it was almost time for dinner, and Chun He came in to remind him, "Prince, are you going to have dinner here tonight?"
Cheng Yunshuo raised his teacup and said, "No need."
It's time to go back.
At this time, he looked at Lu Lingyun, and after a long hesitation, he said, "Xiaojun, can you lend me some money first? It's considered an advance."
In the end, he was still thinking about the fact that Xing Dairong had no new clothes to wear.
I still have to find some money to make clothes for Xing Dairong.
Lu Lingyun looked at him and guessed about why he wanted the money. "How much do you want?"
"Ten taels, please."
Lu Lingyun didn't ask what the money was going to be used for. He just gave Shuanghong a wink, and Shuanghong immediately handed over a wallet containing ten taels of silver.
"If it's not enough, tell me again."
Lu Lingyun gave the money to Cheng Yunshuo.
The feeling of giving money and taking money is completely different.
It was also different from Qin's usual kind of support.
Cheng Yunshuo, who was asking Lu Lingyun for money, looked at her with a different look in his eyes.
Lu Lingyun gave him both the substance and the face without asking any questions, and his favorable impression of her inevitably increased.
"Then I'm leaving."
He said to her.
"Um."
After Cheng Yunshuo left, Chun He couldn't help but say, "Young Madam, the money the prince wants is most likely for that vixen."
"That's fine."
After all, it was the Marquis's money, and it was part of his allowance, so Lu Lingyun didn't suffer any loss.
"Madam, you can actually take advantage of the situation this time and let that vixen become your concubine," Chun Xing said with her eyes rolling around, "There is no share for her in the Yaoguang Pavilion, and the prince has no money to support her. Isn't this a good time to capture her?"
"It's still early."
Lu Lingyun smiled.
Even if they wanted Xing Dairong to be their aunt and serve her tea as a concubine, they would have to take the initiative to ask her.
Why is she in such a hurry?
She looked at Chun Xing and said, "You should go back to Aunt Qiu. She will have another chance tonight."
After getting the money, Cheng Yunshuo returned to Yanguang Pavilion with satisfaction.
As soon as he entered the yard, he asked, "Where is Dai Rong?"
"Miss Xing is in the room."
"Crying?"
"I'm not crying anymore." Qiu Kui looked at his own prince. What he actually wanted to say was that not crying at this moment was more terrifying than crying.
She didn't know what she was doing, but she trembled when she got near Xing Dairong's house.
"Go and invite the embroiderer over, and ask Dai Rong to choose the fabric to make clothes herself." He threw the silver bag to Qiu Kui.
"yes."
Cheng Yunshuo was in a good mood at the moment. Having money is different from not having money. He went over and knocked on Xing Dairong's door, coaxing her gently, "Dairong, open the door. I was wrong about what happened this afternoon. I came here to apologize to you."
The room was quiet.
Cheng Yunshuo continued to knock on the door, "Let's talk it over."
The house was still quiet.
Cheng Yunshuo lost his patience and kicked the door open, imitating what Xing Dairong did this afternoon. After kicking it open, a basin of cold water poured over his head.
Xing Dairong, with disheveled hair and red eyes, looked at him angrily while holding a basin of water.
She was locked in the room for an entire afternoon, and after crying and making a fuss, all that was left in her heart was a deep hatred.
She felt wronged and resentful. She only had Cheng Yunshuo in this world, but Cheng Yunshuo locked her up and went out to find another woman for the whole afternoon. He was a scumbag. All the promises he made to her were false and he lied to her.
He is a complete liar!
She must take revenge on him, she must!
What's being poured out is not water, but her tears!
Big drops of cold water slid down Cheng Yunshuo's head. In an instant, Xing Dairong felt unprecedented relief and relief.
She burst into laughter.
Cheng Yunshuo, who was sitting opposite her, looked at her coldly after a few breaths, "You are really crazy."
