Su Qingyu was stunned when she heard what Pearl said. Shen Zhixiu is back?

She subconsciously looked at the door. Shen Zhixiu stood with his hands behind his hands and walked in expressionlessly.

Seeing this, Pearl shrank her neck, lowered her head and retreated.

After Shen Zhixiu came in, he sat on the mahogany Taishi chair near the window without looking at Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu pursed her lips, walked up to him, lowered her head and held his hand.

"Why do you look so bad and angry?"

Su Qingyu could sense that he was angry, but she didn't quite understand why he was angry. I carefully recalled what she said, and I didn't think there was anything outrageous or excessive.

Shen Zhixiu looked down at her green hands, which were white and moist.

"Ah."

He said yes, which made Su Qingyu stunned.

What does this "um" mean?

Seeing that she didn't know why, Shen Zhixiu spoke again, "I'm angry, but you know the difference very clearly. Even Pearl knows that we don't distinguish between you and me."

"Su Qingyu, do you still think that I am your husband? With such a small amount of money, do you still have to hold me to a certain standard?"

Shen Zhixiu even had the illusion that even if they reconciled or he passed away one day, Su Qingyu would still be able to live a good life.

Su Qingyu also heard a hint of grievance in his tone.

"Third Master, I didn't mean that."

Shen Zhixiu looked up at him with a sullen face, "Then what do you mean? What do you mean you can't use my money?"

"Why, people won't recognize my money when I take it out?"

Su Qingyu looked at his aggrieved expression, her eyes evaded, and a hint of guilt flashed in her heart.

I don’t know if it’s because of her rebirth that she’s used to doing everything by herself. Whether it was revenge or grabbing what she wanted, she was unwilling to rely on others. I always feel that no one can be relied on, and only what you can get by yourself is the most practical.

She suddenly realized that this might not be right. She and Shen Zhixiu are husband and wife, should she try to rely on him? Only in this way will he feel that he is valued and needed.

Su Qingyu can calmly analyze the pros and cons of everything she encounters, but she is a bit of an afterthought about feelings.

Thinking of this, she suddenly bit her lower lip, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

The next moment, Su Qingyu sat directly on Shen Zhixiu's legs and put her arms around his neck.

"I need money now. How much can I give you?"

As he spoke, the delicate red lips pressed on the corners of Shen Zhixiu's lips.

Shen Zhixiu froze. This was the first time that Su Qingyu took the initiative to sit on his lap and kissed him.

His Adam's apple squirmed and he asked in a lowered voice: "How much money does Madam lack?"

Su Qingyu nestled against his shoulder, and the hot breath she exhaled from speaking just sprayed on his ears.

"Three hundred thousand taels."

Shen Zhixiu snorted, feeling very satisfied with her move.

He raised his voice and ordered: "Zhenzhu, go to the study to find Wenzhu and bring over three hundred thousand taels of silver notes."

Su Qingyu's face suddenly darkened when she heard this, "The third master is angry because I am divorced from you, but the third master's money and property are not in my hands."

"I thought the third master wanted to tell me clearly, so I didn't dare to open my mouth and ask you for money."

She imitated Shen Zhixiu's aggrieved tone and spoke ten times more aggrieved than Shen Zhixiu.

This move turned against the guest, which frightened Shen Zhixiu.

He quickly explained softly, "It's not that I didn't tell you, those are taken care of by the people below. I was afraid that I wouldn't leave them in your hands because you were tired."

"I didn't expect you to need so much money. It's my fault."

"Let them take care of the rest from now on, and leave all the money with you."

Su Qingyu snorted, "Let's forget it this time. It won't be the same next time."

Shen Zhixiu saw the successful smile in Su Qingyu's eyes and reached out to pinch her smooth chin, "Qingqing, you did it on purpose."

Su Qingyu laughed in Shen Zhixiu's arms, "I learned this from you."

After a while, Pearl lowered her head and brought in the banknote.

At this time, Shen Zhixiu clasped the back of Su Qingyu's head and kissed the corner of her lips.

When the banknotes were placed on the table, Pearl quickly bowed her head and backed out, closing the study door tightly.

Su Qingyu took the banknote, looked at it, and said happily: "That's fine. I won't feel bad if I lose my man's money."

These words pleased Shen Zhixiu, and he carried her directly to the small couch by the back window in the study.

A charming room filled with spring scenery.

The next day, Su Qingyu sent someone to send money to Lin Wanyin and Su Shunci.

Two or three days later, Su Qingyu went to Shen Yue's yard to choose clothes and jewelry for her to attend the banquet in the Royal Courtyard.

This time it was a post from the prince, and only unmarried young ladies and young men from the capital were invited. Another person was asked to go, Li Chaoyun, to help with the trivial matters at the banquet.

Shen Yue was never keen on such occasions, but the prince sent a total of two posts to the Shen family. One for her and one for the second roommate Shen Hong. Unfortunately, Shen Hong caught wind and cold. It would be bad if she didn't go.

After what happened in the past few days, Su Qingyu was really worried. Then he told her, "There will be a lot of people at the banquet tomorrow. I'll ask Jade to go with you so that you can take care of me if anything happens."

Shen Yue saw the worry in Su Qingyu's eyes and nodded to comfort her, "Don't worry, third aunt, I will be careful."

Su Qingyu chose a green-green embroidered gold round-neck double-breasted jacket for her, paired with a passion-flower carved silk heddle skirt.

Early the next morning, Shen Yue took Jade and Qiu Tong out to the royal courtyard on the outskirts of the city. She and Li Chaoyun had never had a good relationship, so the two did not go together.

Shen Yue arrived not too early, and carriages in twos and threes at the entrance of the courtyard stopped and then left.

After getting off the carriage, a maid led her in. Shen Yue looked around and didn't see the person she wanted to see, so she walked inside patiently.

The royal family's villa is very large. Shen Yue has been here once two years ago, so she is quite familiar with it.

In the Baiyuan Garden of the annex, the young ladies and gentlemen who had arrived early were sitting on the porch, watching the scenery and chatting.

When Shen Yue arrived, Li Chaoyun was inviting everyone to enjoy scented tea.

Seeing her coming, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sister is here. My sister-in-law left early this morning and didn't call you to come with her. Don't be angry."

Shen Yue was blessed, "What are you talking about, sister-in-law? It's hard for my sister-in-law to entertain us on behalf of the Crown Prince today."

The two of them were outside, looking like sisters and sisters in harmony.

Li Chaoyun's target today was not Shen Yue, so he didn't say much and ordered people to lead Shen Yue to sit down.

He looked in the direction of the door again, wondering if Li Yunzhou would come today?
