Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 271

"You...you are Jue'er?" Chu Wenchang said in disbelief.

Oh my God, is she dreaming?

Will she still be lucky enough to see her family?

Thinking of this, Chu Wenchang was very excited.

"Aunt, long time no see. How have you been these years?" After Chu Haojue asked, he secretly cursed himself for being stupid. His aunt didn't look well like this.

As he spoke, Chu Haojue looked around the palace. It was indeed even more shabby than his former Second Prince's Mansion.

Thinking of this, Chu Haojue frowned.

Oh my God, could it be that my cousin is thinking that they are so poor and have no money to give him?

Zhou Chengyu looked at Chu Haojue with a frown on his face and thought secretly in his heart.

After he carefully calculated for a while, he sighed in his heart. He and his mother really didn't have any money to give to his cousin. After all, all his wealth added up was less than ten taels of silver.

This is probably not even enough to cover my cousin's travel expenses to Xijing Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chengyu became worried again. If he didn't give his cousin enough money for the trip, his cousin wouldn't know how to go back.

"It's amazing that Aunt Wenchang still remembers me." Chu Haojue said with a smile. It was indeed a bit surprising that his aunt could remember him. After all, Chu Wenchang was still very young when he went to Xijing Kingdom to marry.

Now, it is no longer what it used to be.

"You look a lot like your mother and your father." Chu Haochang looked at his nephew, and she felt like a ray of light shone into her drowsy heart, warming it instantly.

"Princess Wenchang, why are you so tattered?" Zhu Yuanliang asked with a frown.

Isn’t this too shabby?

I originally thought that their Chu Yuan Kingdom was poor enough, but I didn't expect that the Xijing Kingdom, which was said to be rich enough to rival a country, was also so poor.

It turns out that the rumors are not credible.

After hearing what Zhu Yuanliang said, Chu Wenchang felt a little embarrassed at first, but then he felt relieved.

"Indeed, it's a little broken." Chu Haojue said, thinking to himself that Zhou Zhengan was rumored to be extremely lustful and easily bored with the old things.

His aunt could enjoy the exclusive palace here, probably because this place was too dilapidated to be habitable.

"Mother..." Zhou Chengyu seemed to have just reacted and quickly stood beside Chu Wenchang.

"Chengyu, this is your second cousin." Chu Wenchang didn't say anything, but just patted Zhou Chengyu's body and said.

"Chengyu didn't know that it was my second cousin. Thank you for your help today!" Zhou Chengyu bowed to Chu Haojue.

"What's going on?" Chu Wenchang had a bad feeling when he heard about the rescue.

"No...it's okay." Zhou Chengyu quickly denied it.

If his mother knew that Zhou Chengbei had bullied him again, she would definitely be sad.

"Did that bastard Zhou Chengbei bully you again?" Chu Wenchang asked with red eyes.

Since they were little, Zhou Chengbei would bully them from time to time.

"Are you often bullied?" Chu Haojue asked with a frown.

"It's okay, I'm used to it. Cousin, you'd better leave the palace before Zhou Chengbei finds you. Zhou Chengbei is not a good person." Zhou Chengyu advised.

"If we leave, I'm afraid you won't have a good life, right?" Chu Haojue said affirmatively.

"Then don't worry about it. I am a prince after all. They won't do anything to us." Zhou Chengbei said.

"Cousin, I know it's not easy for you, but you have seen the situation between me and my mother. This is a small token of our appreciation. We really can't do anything else." Zhou Chengyu reluctantly took out ten taels of silver from his arms and stuffed it into Chu Haojue's hand, saying.

Chu Haojue was stunned when he looked at the silver in his hand. Since he married Qiao Anan, when had he ever seen such a small amount of silver?

However, before Chu Haojue got married, he couldn't meet her, and he might not even have ten taels of spare silver.

"Cough!" Chu Haojue coughed lightly, and then realized that his cousin might think that he was here to ask for money from them.

"You should keep this silver for yourself." Chu Haojue quickly stuffed the silver in his hand back to Zhou Chengyu. Really, does he look like someone who is short of these ten taels of silver?

"Jue'er, although this money is not much, it can at least allow you to buy some food on the way and fill your stomach." Chu Wenchang also advised.

"Your Highness, are you short of money?" Zhu Yuanliang asked in confusion.

If His Highness is really short of silver, I can lend it to him. Their military salaries have been paid on time recently, and the previous ones have also been made up. There is no need for more, a few hundred or eight hundred taels is not a problem.

What can I do with these ten taels of silver?

Chu Haojue rolled his eyes at Zhu Yuanliang and thought to himself, "Do I look like someone who's short of money? I earn two hundred thousand taels of silver a month!"

"Cousin, use your silver to eat something delicious. Don't be so frugal." Chu Haojue took out a thousand-liang silver note from his pocket and stuffed it into Zhou Chengyu's pocket.

"Aunt, I came here in a hurry this time and didn't prepare any gifts for you. You can use this little money to buy something you like." Chu Haojue turned around and stuffed another two thousand taels of silver notes to Chu Wenchang.

Zhou Chengyu looked at the banknotes in his hand, feeling doubtful.

Isn’t it said that the Chu Yuan Kingdom is very poor?

"Jue'er, you can't do this. I know it's not easy for you. Your aunt is protected from the wind and rain here, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing. Take this silver back." When Chu Wenchang saw the amount on it, he hurriedly wanted to stuff the silver notes back to Chu Haojue.

"Aunt, I'm giving it to you, just keep it. It's only two thousand taels." Chu Haojue thought to himself, he couldn't earn two thousand taels, but his wife could.

"Jue'er, I am useless and cannot help my brother, but I cannot take your money either." Chu Wenchang insisted.

"Princess Wenchang, Your Highness can still come up with this little money. Our Chuyuan Kingdom is much better off than your Xijing Kingdom now." Zhu Yuanliang said with disdain looking at the palace.

"Empress Chu, my queen asks you to come over!" At this time, a palace maid shouted outside and left.

"Mother?" Zhou Chengyu looked at Chu Wenchang worriedly.

When Chu Wenchang saw that man, he felt a surge of fear in his heart.

As someone in the Queen's palace, she naturally knew how vicious the Queen was.

"Mother, why don't we not go this time?" Zhou Chengyu said worriedly.

"Yu'er, do you think he will let me not go?" Chu Wenchang twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Is this person scary?" Chu Haojue asked with a frown?

He looked at his aunt and cousin, both of whom looked frightened, and thought to himself that the queen must have often bullied them.

"Cousin, the one with a big spot on his face today is the queen's legitimate son. Today, the warrior called him ugly, and he will definitely blame me for it." Zhou Chengyu said.
