Quick Wear: She Whose Negative System Is Broken

The young lady turned around and bowed in the direction of Yu Tang from a distance.

Only then did Yu Tang get a rough idea of ​​her appearance: she had beautiful eyes and graceful eyebrows.

She can’t be described as being particularly beautiful, but her temperament is very extraordinary. Standing there, she looks like she has walked out of a painting of beautiful ladies.

After Yu Tang waited for them to make way, he mounted his horse and rode away.

Even if the young noble lady was Li Qing'er, she had no intention of finding out.

Li Qing'er entered the Li Mansion and went to pay her respects to Madam Li first. She was then held in her arms and asked about her well-being.

Seeing the things carried into the yard behind her, she asked curiously, "What are those boxes of yours?"

Speaking of this, Li Qing'er's smile faded a little.

Turning around and looking at the vermilion boxes outside, they were a bit dazzling under the sunlight.

"These are all things that Zhien asked me to bring to honor my father and mother."

Mrs. Li smiled but hadn't said anything yet when she heard someone snort coldly outside the door.

Li Boshan walked in and said, "I don't have anything in my Shangshu Mansion. I don't need his things. He should be kind to my daughter. What's the point of giving him these?"

"After all, it's the son-in-law's good intention."

Mrs. Li stopped her daughter who was about to stand up and salute, and glared at Li Boshan in a reproachful manner.

"You've been married for almost half a year, and you don't come back often. Your mother has missed you so much that her hair has turned gray."

Facing his only daughter, Li Boshan's expression changed again.

Li Qing'er turned her head to look at her mother's hair. Seeing her daughter's guilty and patient expression, Mrs. Li touched her hair uncomfortably.

"Why are you blaming me? I'm fine. Your father is the one who has several white eyebrows and beards."

"It's my daughter who is unfilial."

"Oh, why are you saying this? Is your son-in-law good to you?" Mrs. Li quickly changed the subject.

"Very good." Li Qing'er smiled with some sincerity.

The two smart people in the Li family could naturally see that their daughter was not lying, and the atmosphere immediately relaxed.

"When will we have a grandchild?"

Li Qing'er felt a little uncomfortable and changed the subject.

"By the way, hasn't Princess Hexi's house next door always been empty? Has someone moved in recently?"

Mrs. Li thought she was just shy, took a sip of tea, and started chatting with great interest.

"It is said that he is a distinguished guest of the princess. His background is not clear, but I heard that the princess entrusted all her properties to him to manage."

"He always has some novel ideas. Nowadays, all the ladies and wives in the capital love to go to his shop."

Li Boshan sat quietly and listened. He knew much more than Mrs. Li.

The man named Yu Tang was a strange man. No one in the world could match his speed in amassing wealth.

Fortunately, with the princess as his backer, no one dared to touch him. Several princes were jealous of him, but they only tried to win him over in private.

"Yunguifang, Zhehualou, and Zhijinpu are all his shops, which are very popular in Beijing recently and many noble ladies gather to admire each other."

"Speaking of which, I also bought some jewelry and clothes for my son a few days ago. They are all custom-made. There is only one of them in the whole capital. My son will definitely look good in them."

Madam Li pulled Li Qing'er and looked her up and down, smiling widely, then turned to look outside the door.

"Before you came back, I sent someone to Yun Gui Fang to buy some new dim sum. Why hasn't Yun Que come back yet?"

Speak of the devil, and here he appears. Just as Mrs. Li finished her words, Yunque ran in breathlessly carrying a food box.

"Madam, we are finally here. Shan Que and I received your letter early in the morning and went to Yun Gui Fang to buy some snacks."

"The queue almost stretched to Tongxi Street. We finally bought some, but the shopkeeper said that the icy dessert was about to melt, so we hurried back. Shanqueer couldn't run any further and was still behind us."

Yunque put the lunch box on the table, panting so hard that he almost couldn't catch his breath.

Mrs. Li felt a little distressed when she saw her like that, because she was watching a little girl grow up.

"Hurry up and drink some water and rest, then bring the tit back."

"Hey." The girl responded, bowed to the three people in the room and left.

The food box had two layers, and Mrs. Li opened the top lid.

There were six white and soft ice cakes wrapped in pink glutinous rice paper, the size of a child's fist, placed on one layer.

It feels icy in the hand and soft in the mouth. The outer skin is soft and chewy, while the inner filling is cool and tender with a rich milky flavor.

Take another bite and you can taste the refreshing, sour and sweet berries.

Mrs. Li was quite emotional and praised the dish highly. Although Li Qing'er did not show it, she saw that she was holding the ice cake in both hands and eating it with special care, and she knew that she must be very satisfied with it.

The three were eating when Skylark, who had just rested, came over with the Chickadee.

"You have worked hard, each of you can take one and eat it."

Although these twelve small ice cakes only cost four taels of silver, the Li family is wealthy and powerful, so she naturally doesn't care about this small amount of money.

The two maids smiled at each other with joy in their eyes, and stepped forward to take it respectfully.

After Mrs. Li asked them to leave, she skipped out of the room.

Of the remaining ice cakes, Li Qing'er and Madam Li ate three each, and Li Boshan ate four.

Although this thing is small, it still takes up space. The three of them ate half a bowl less at lunch without any prior agreement.

The shops in the capital were basically on track. Yu Tang occasionally inspected and checked the accounts, and at other times she also visited several farms in the suburbs of the capital.

It happened that the weather in Hezhou was hot and dry, and the rain was slow to fall. In recent years, natural disasters have occurred frequently and the national treasury has been poor, so the court discussed the disaster relief issue for several days.

Following Yu Tang's suggestion, Ji Qiyu converted her income from the past few months and her own savings into cash.

They were packed in large vermilion wooden boxes of uniform specifications and carried into Yuanheng Hall one by one.

She originally wanted to exchange it for silver notes or gold, but was stopped by Yu Tang. It was not appropriate to keep such a matter low-key.

No one can guarantee that the emperor's favor will last forever, and even the heroine cannot have a smooth sailing life.

Ji Qiyu has such a bad reputation among the people, and he will probably be dragged down by it in the future.

"What is this doing?"

Emperor Yun looked at the neatly arranged silver ingots in a dozen open boxes and looked at his most beloved daughter in front of him in shock.

"I heard that there was a severe drought in Hezhou. I am willing to donate all my savings to relieve your father's immediate worries. I hope you take care of yourself."

Ji Qiyu's words were so sincere and heartfelt that it was hard not to be moved by Emperor Yun, who was already very sentimental.

"How do you have so much silver?" Emperor Yun was moved, but he remained calm.

"I'm afraid Father doesn't know that I'm doing very well in business outside."

Ji Qiyu knelt down beside Emperor Yun's knees, staring at him with blinking eyes.

Emperor Yun suddenly seemed to see the little girl with a pigtail who ran into his arms many years ago with a loving look in her eyes.

"He Xi has worked hard."

Ji Qiyu realized that her father might have misunderstood something, and quickly shook her head to explain.

"I met a man a few days ago. He is very talented in business. I was able to earn this much money thanks to him."

"You can keep this money for yourself. Father is not so incompetent as to take his daughter's money."

Emperor Yun looked at the silver light in front of him with a smile on his face. He was not unmoved by the temptation. Although the national treasury was not rich, it was not so difficult. He had his own persistence.

"Father, I have lived a life of luxury since I was young. I am loved by you and I am loved by you. I have never been restrained."

"I have nothing to repay you for, I only regret that I am not a man and cannot fight in the battlefield and achieve great things."

"I cannot live under the protection of my father and mother forever. As a princess of a country, I am willing to take on the responsibilities of a princess. I only hope to do my best for Dashuo. I hope my father will help me."

Ji Qiyu's words kept Emperor Yun silent for a long time. He gently touched the high bun on Ji Qiyu's head.

"You've grown up and are better than your brothers and sisters."
