The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily

Chapter 71 Feels Like a Concealment

"For Qin Tang's sake, you must not help him get promoted!"

"But……"

"No buts!"

Old Madam Xi made the decision with absolute certainty.

She looked at the direction where the wedding procession was going from afar and said in a cold voice: "This Lu Yitong is obviously a man who only wants to get promoted and make money but not his wife. If he just stays as a minor official, with you as a deterrent, Qin Tang might still be able to live. If he gets the upper hand, humph, I don't know how to be a humiliator then."

"But what if he coaxes Qin Tang to beg for it?"

"Just give her some gold and silver from time to time, don't worry about the rest." Old Madam Xi hardened her heart and said, "Anyway, she has money in her hands, a maidservant as a dowry, and she knows a little martial arts. She won't starve to death, won't get tired, and won't stand being bullied. That's enough.

If you really want to, when she has children in the future, help her spend more time on the children."

"That's what mother said."

Xiao Zhongjing agreed with deep understanding.

After sending Madam Xi back to Qingshou Hall, he turned around and came to Longyan Pavilion. Before he entered the house, he heard the sad sobbing sound from inside.

He frowned and felt strange, so he asked the maid next to him, "What happened to your aunt?"

"I don't know." The maid shook her head. "Anyway, my aunt has been like this since she came back from the wedding banquet yesterday."

"A wedding banquet?"

Xiao Chongjing was a little surprised.

But after thinking about what happened at the banquet yesterday, he quickly guessed about 70% of it.

He shook his head helplessly, waved his hand to let the maids go down, and then he opened the door and walked into the house, coming directly to Yin Xiaorou.

He couldn't help but laugh when he saw Yin Xiaorou throwing herself on the bed, crying and shaking shoulders.

"Hey, why are the golden beans falling?"

He smiled and teased, while reaching out to lift Yin Xiaorou's chin. Seeing her red eyes and pitiful look, my heart was moved.

So he sighed, held her in his arms like his beloved baby, and comforted her gently, "Don't cry, you should smile. Mother just praised you, saying that you held the wedding ceremony decently this time and you are a reliable person. You are much better than Ruan Yunluo who failed at the critical moment."

"What's the point of being better than her? Isn't it still not presentable?"

Yin Xiaorou wiped her tears, feeling aggrieved and unhappy. "Yesterday, I was the one who organized the Third Miss's wedding banquet, but when it came time to take the spotlight, mother..."

As Yin Xiaorou spoke, she began to choke up again.

"I know you've been wronged."

Xiao Chongjing hurried to comfort him.

While comforting her, she also did not forget to explain for her mother, "But mother also did this because she did not know your identity... But time will tell, don't worry, mother will definitely change her attitude towards you after a while."

"is it?"

Yin Xiaorou looked at Xiao Chongjing expectantly with red eyes.

"of course."

Xiao Chongjing nodded.

He hugged Yin Xiaorou tightly and sighed, "I know that being a concubine is unfair to you. Don't worry, I will find a way to make you a co-wife when I have the chance.

Or, Ruan Yunluo is so ill now, if one day... then, I will promote you to be my legal wife. I will never let you suffer this kind of grievance again."

"Ah."

Yin Xiaorou nodded.

She looked at Xiao Chongjing affectionately and said with emotion: "With your words, I am satisfied."

"Xiao Rou..."

"Heavy scene..."

The two looked at each other tenderly, and just when they were feeling emotional, there was a rapid knock on the door.

"who!"

Xiao Chongjing looked towards the door with some annoyance.

"Yes, I am." Outside the door, Xiao Chongjing's personal servant quickly replied, "General, someone has come from the Treasure Pavilion and is waiting in the guest hall..."

"Okay, I'll come right away."

When Xiao Chongjing heard that it was someone from the Treasure Pavilion, he immediately came to his senses.

He straightened his clothes, then stretched out his hand and looked at Yin Xiaorou with a smile, "Boss, please pay."

"what money?"

Yin Xiaorou looked puzzled, "Where is the money in the mansion now?"

"This money was set aside specifically to prepare a birthday gift for Concubine Xi."

"This..." Yin Xiaorou was embarrassed.

"What's this?"

Xiao Chongjing was a little anxious, "Don't joke around, get someone to take out the money quickly, the people from the Treasure Pavilion are waiting in the guest hall. Concubine Xi's birthday is in three days, we must send the birthday gift before then."

"I know, but...does it have to be such an expensive gift?" Yin Xiaorou looked at Xiao Chongjing pitifully, hesitated, and finally told the truth, "Chongjing, there is no money in the public account."

"How can this be……"

Xiao Chongjing smiled and thought she was joking, but suddenly he felt something was wrong. He stared at Yin Xiaorou with wide eyes in disbelief, "That money, you wouldn't..."

"Ah."

Yin Xiaorou nodded carefully and explained quickly, "I was forced to do this. Mom told me to find a solution, but I didn't know where to find one, so I just..."

"So you took the money from Concubine Xi's birthday gift!"

Xiao Chongjing was furious.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Yin Xiaorou, "How dare you be so bold? You dare to touch the expenses of Concubine Xi? Why didn't you tell me in advance? It's so urgent now, where can you let me get 10,000 taels of silver for the Treasure Pavilion?!"

"I'm sorry..." Yin Xiaorou apologized aggrievedly, mumbling in defense, "But I looked through the account book, didn't Madam do the same thing four years ago? I was just following the old routine..."

"Times have changed. How can four years ago be the same as today?"

Xiao Chongjing sighed irritably, "Four years ago, it was a disaster year. There was a severe drought in the north and a major earthquake in the south. The whole country was in dire straits. Your Majesty practiced frugality at that time. Not to mention Concubine Xi, even the Queen restrained herself a lot. Under such circumstances, the simpler the birthday celebration for Concubine Xi, the better.

But now the weather is good, how can it be like that? "

"I see……"

Yin Xiaorou was thoughtful and became suspicious of Ruan Yunluo again.

She deliberately asked me to come back and review the old rules. Was she trying to help her, or was she setting a trap to harm her?

Why does it feel like a set?...
