After finishing her sentence in one breath, Lü Qiao held her breath and looked at him.
Si Yi's initial impatience gradually softened.
Seeing her looking at him nervously, he paused, reached out and put his arm around her shoulder, pulling her into his embrace. He gently stroked the top of her head with his chin, and after a moment, he sighed, "Perhaps you are right, and I was too narrow-minded."
Upon hearing this, Lü Qiao quickly shook her head, "That's not how it is. You're not narrow-minded at all. You've gone through so much suffering, it's only natural that you hate the Si family. It's also your right not to like Si Luo and Si Lan. No one can force you to let go or forgive them."
but……
I hope you can be happy and not let unworthy people continue to bother you.
Si Yi held her tightly in his arms, the coldness in his heart gradually dispelled by the warmth. He murmured softly, "Lü Qiao..."
Green Fairy lifted her head from his embrace, reached out and touched his thin face, and said with heartache, "You and the prince have been fighting on the front lines for almost seven months and haven't been back. You must not have been eating well, that's why you've become so thin."
After saying that, she patted the purse at her waist and said with a smile, "Miss gave me a lot of money last time. Come on, I'll take you to have a good meal."
Upon hearing this, the gloom between Si Yi's brows immediately vanished. He was on the march, so of course he would have plenty of good food, but if she thought that way, he didn't want to explain. He would just let her misunderstand.
"Why did the Empress suddenly reward you with silver?" After taking a few steps, he couldn't help but ask, as if something had occurred to him.
"Because the Hundred Flowers Pavilion is doing well, the Fifth Elder keeps bringing silver to the Prince's Mansion every few days. Miss saw that I was working hard taking care of the two young masters, so she rewarded me with a box of silver. With the silver you gave me before, I have a lot of money in my hands now." Green Fairy said, laughing happily.
Although the two of them don't have many expenses now, there will be many more places to spend money after they have children, so she needs to save more.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at him.
Although he fought alongside the emperor for so long, he still received a monthly salary.
He hasn't been back for almost seven months, and I haven't seen him hand over his monthly salary.
The lady said that men shouldn't keep too much money in their hands, otherwise they'll go astray.
"What are you looking at?" Si Yi noticed her scrutiny and asked in confusion.
Green Fairy coughed lightly, stretched out her hand to him, and said in a grand manner, "You know, although we are just a small family, we eat and live in the Prince's Mansion and don't have any expenses at the moment, but after we have children, there will be many more places where we need money, so... umm."
She thought she had hinted enough, but Si Yi didn't seem to understand and was instead focused on something else.
"Have... a child?"
Meeting his dark, bright eyes, Lü Qiao's face flushed. She then realized how naturally she had spoken about having children, completely forgetting how inappropriate it was.
"I... I was just using an analogy," she stammered.
Si Yi smiled slightly, then suddenly reached into his pocket and pulled out a stack of silver notes, handing them to her. "They're all yours."
Lü Qiao stared dumbfounded at the thick stack of silver notes in her hand. "All...all for me? No, no, where did you get so many silver notes?"
"Your mistress is allowed to reward you, but my master isn't allowed to reward me?" Si Yi glanced at her and said somewhat unconvinced.
Upon hearing this, Lü Qiao found it somewhat amusing, "Of course, I just think this is too much."
What Si Yi didn't mention was that he had made significant contributions during the last campaign in the capital to overthrow the deposed emperor, so after his master ascended the throne, he rewarded him with a house based on his merits.
If Lü Qiao doesn't want to stay in the palace after they go to the capital, then the two of them can live in that house.
Green Beauty took a few banknotes from a stack of silver notes and stuffed them back into his hand. Although the young lady had said that men shouldn't keep too much money on them, it would be pitiful if they didn't keep any at all.
Seeing how much weight Si Yi had lost, she softened and decided to give him a few silver notes to keep on hand for any eventuality.
"No need to give it to me, you can keep it," Si Yi said, refusing.
Greenie asked, "What if you need money?"
"I'll let you know when I need it," Si Yi said matter-of-factly.
Hearing this, Lü Qiao was very pleased. She crumpled up a stack of silver notes, put them close to her body, and said, "Then I'll keep them for you. If you need them, you must tell me."
"good."
As the two were talking, they heard arguing coming from ahead.
The two initially ignored it, but when Si Yi recognized the people arguing, he realized it was Wen Tingyun.
"It's the Second Young Master." Green Fairy was somewhat surprised. "Why is he arguing with a girl?"
"Let's go take a look." Si Yi pulled her along and walked towards the source of the argument.
As the two approached, they realized that the girl Wen Tingyun was arguing with was none other than Chen Lingsu.
"Second Young Master, Miss Chen, what are you doing here?" Green Fairy looked at the two of them in confusion.
The two, who were arguing heatedly, both stopped talking when they saw each other.
"It's nothing," Wen Tingyun said.
Chen Lingsu glanced at him, then squatted down with some annoyance and picked up the scattered balls of silk thread.
Only then did Lü Qiao notice the ball of silk thread scattered on the ground, and she quickly squatted down to help her pick it up.
"Miss Chen, are you out buying silk thread?" Lü Qiao handed the ball of silk thread she had picked up to Chen Lingsu.
Chen Lingsu nodded. "Yes, thank you."
Lü Qiao shook her head. "Miss Chen, you're too kind." As she spoke, she looked up at the uncomfortable Wen Tingyun beside her, and quickly realized something. She lowered her voice and asked, "Was it the Second Young Master who knocked you down?"
