Playing bad and eating melons: The whole court is laughing? No, no

The people who had just helped the Duke of England to stop the court from leaving were praying silently, hoping that His Majesty would let them go after listening to the Duke of England's story, and also hoping that Lord Xiao Jiang would not choose him.

The system asked: [Host, what kind of person do you think the British Duke is when he's abroad?]

Jiang Yueyang thought back to what people outside had said about the Duke of England, and said uncertainly: [Generous, rich, and popular?]

[The host thinks he is rich? ]

[No money? I heard that no matter who they go out to eat with, the British man is always the one who rushes to pay the bill.]

[Hahaha...] The system suddenly laughed.

The Duke of England had already guessed what the system was going to say next, and his old face turned red.

The system laughed and continued, "That's what happened, but you know what? Although the British prince always rushes to pay the bill, he never pays once."

Jiang Yueyang: [Hmm?]

Emperor Yuan: Why didn’t he rush to pay the bill when we were having dinner?

Those who have had dinner with the Duke of England thought carefully and found that he seemed to always rush to pay the bill.

They were embarrassed to ask Shangguan to treat them to a meal, so they would always rush to pay the bill.

The system couldn't help but laugh twice more, [Because he didn't have much money in his pocket, this was the only way.]

[Ah~] Jiang Yueyang glanced at the Duke of England who lowered his head, [So this is the kind of person the Duke of England is.]

When those who had dined with the Duke of England heard that he had no money, they realized that they seemed to have been cheated.

As the son-in-law of Daxia's richest man, Minister Jiang had been the victim of the most scams. He was secretly calculating his score and preparing to settle accounts with the Duke of Ying.

The Marquis of Loyalty, who was standing behind the Duke of Ying, kicked him and said, "Brother, you are so dishonest that you even cheated me. If you don't have money, you can tell me and I will lend it to you."

The Duke of England did not make any feeble excuses, but simply took a step forward.

Unexpectedly, the Third Prince standing in front of him turned his head slightly and complained, "Duke Yingguo, how could you even cheat a junior like me out of my money?"

The Duke of England was unconvinced and retorted in a low voice, "They say I cheated them, I admit it. But Your Highness, you say I cheated you, I deny it! Every time we eat, you always eat up all the food, and do I even get to eat two bites? You just deliberately asked me to watch you eat!"

The Third Prince turned his head away guiltily, muttering, "You eat slowly, are you blaming me?"

When the Duke of England heard this, he was so angry that his beard stood up.

Over there, Jiang Yueyang seemed to have thought of something and said in confusion: "That's not right. How could the dignified Duke of Yingzhou be so poor? Moreover, the Duke of Yingzhou's wife is from the Qinghe Cui family, so she is very wealthy."

He has money, but the money is not on him. Before the Duke of England's wife took possession of his purse, the Duke of England was very generous, like a child giving away money.

No matter how large the family fortune was, it wasn't enough for him to spend, so the Duchess of England restricted his spending. He now only had three taels of silver per month for pocket money, less than his five-year-old granddaughter's monthly allowance.

Emperor Yuan and everyone present looked at him with sympathy, thinking of giving him the few coins they had on them later.

Minister Jiang: Never mind, it’s not much money, I’ll just buy a house for my daughter.

Jiang Yueyang was about to say that the Duke of England was too miserable, but unexpectedly the system gasped and said: [Although the Duke of England doesn't have much money in his pocket, he is very good at making money and hiding money.

He could easily draw a picture and sell it to someone, and he could get a lot of money. At this time, he had a few banknotes hidden in his belt.

The Duke of England subconsciously covered his belt. He had just changed his position last night, how could he know this?

I don't understand this. If he's rich, why would he trick his colleagues into treating him to a meal?

The system laughed again. [He's very good at hiding things, but the Duchess of England is also very good at finding them. Every time the Duke of England hides money, the Duchess of England finds it within two days. The couple battles wits and courage every day, and their lives are very unhappy.]

Emperor Yuan secretly thought that the Duke of Ying was useless and couldn't even hide his money properly, so he deserved to have no money on him.

Others think that their wives are like bodhisattvas and never care how much money they spend.

[Where does he hide his money?]

[In the toilet, in the soil of a flowerpot, hanging on a tree, under the pillow of the British Duchess...]

Originally, Jiang Yueyang didn't believe that the Duke of England was an expert at hiding money, after all, he was found in just two days.

But after listening to the system's description of the places where the money was hidden, she realized the truth that birds of a feather flock together and that one thing can defeat another.

Emperor Yuan did not say that the Duke of Yingguo was useless. Instead, he praised the Duke of Yingguo's wife for her meticulous mind, sharp eyes and great ability.

At the same time, she was also glad that the queen was not as controlling as she was.

System: [I wonder if the British man's knees still hurt?]

The British man's foot trembled and he felt a dull pain in his knee.

What? He hurt his knee?

The system suppressed a laugh and said, "Every time the Duke of England's wife finds his hidden money, she punishes him by making him kneel on the washboard for an hour."

Jiang Yueyang: "..."

Jiang Yueyang laughed heartily. "The Duchess of England is truly a role model for my generation! I suddenly remembered that my best friend also punished her partner in the same way. The Duchess of England should learn how to kneel on durian, on a keyboard, and on instant noodles!"

Emperor Yuan and the Minister of Agriculture both grasped the key point. Durian and instant noodles sound like they are food?

The keyboard is a plate?

Kneeling on the plate is quite unique.

The system asked: [Host, do you want to send her durian and instant noodles? ]

[It’s not impossible. ]

[Then you can go and see him off after court.]

Jiang Yueyang raised her eyebrows slightly, [What do you mean by that? ]

[Just over a quarter of an hour ago, when the Duchess of England was feeding the fish in the pond, she found a wine bottle in the pond, which was tied with silk thread.

When the British Duchess pulled it apart, she discovered that the bottle contained several pieces of gold and gems.

Jiang Yueyang: [Oh my! Prince Ying is going to kneel on the washboard when he gets home.]

The Duke of England is in tears, my gold...

The people present here are so pitiful.

At that time, on the other side, the British Duchess had already ordered someone to take out the washboard and put it away.

System: [Are you not sending durian? I want to see someone kneeling on durian.]

[I want to see it too, but then I suddenly remembered that the Duchess of England and I don’t seem to know each other.]

Jiang Yueyang's eyes rolled. "I'll find a chance to give it to the Queen. She should be able to use it. Otherwise, I can give it to my mother. She might need it, too."

Emperor Yuan: !!! What do you want to do? I advise you to put this thought aside, otherwise... otherwise...

Minister Jiang: Isn't it said that daughters are their father's sweethearts? How dare you be so deceiving!
