The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Chapter 17 Miss, I'm Too Poor

Gu Lingxi emerged from the space with a joyful expression. Not bad, her spiritual power had clearly become a layer purer! She had been in the space for a day, but only half an hour had passed outside. However, her stomach was already rumbling with hunger!

How could Gu Lingxi tell Hua Ying that she had just eaten lunch and was already hungry again? No wonder Hua Ying would be suspicious. Gu Lingxi had a headache just thinking about how Hua Ying looked at her when she came to clean up the spotless lunch dishes, her expression a mix of curiosity and curiosity, as if she wanted to ask but didn't dare.

It's all Ahri's fault for eating so clean! Not only did she eat it all, she licked the plates and bowls inside and out; anyone who didn't know better would think she washed them! Sigh! Looks like I need to hurry up and go shopping, buy some ingredients to cook in my space! That way, I won't cause any trouble!

Seeing Ying'er busy outside, Gu Lingxi waved to her and said, "Come here!"

When the young lady called her, Ying'er hurriedly put down her needlework. "What's wrong, young lady? Is there anything you need me to do?"

Ying'er, do we have money? How much?

What do you mean, Miss?

It's monthly silver, Miss, do I have any silver?

Yes! The young lady receives three taels of silver every month, plus some tips during festivals, so she now has a total of two hundred taels!

Two hundred taels. Although Ling Xi didn't know the purchasing power, the amount wasn't much. Thinking of the eight or nine decimal-point bank cards she hadn't spent before she transmigrated and the three-story villa of a thousand square meters, she pounded her chest in heartache. Damn it, the most tragic thing is having money but losing yourself! Waaaaah! The original owner had been a rich young lady for over ten years and only managed to save this much. Gu Ling Xi curled her lips in disdain!

Miss, what do you need money for? The manor provides you with all your food, clothing, and daily necessities every month. We have hardly spent any money. This is your monthly allowance for several years, which we have saved for you! Besides, this is quite a lot. Five taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to live on for a year!

Gu Lingxi rolled her eyes for a while and said, "Who doesn't want more money these days! The more the better! Eating, drinking, playing, whoring, gambling, shopping, showing off, visiting brothels—all of these cost money!" Looking at the girl's incredulous expression, Gu Lingxi chuckled and said, "I've already said too much!"

Miss, we are unmarried daughters of officials, how can we go to a brothel? Besides, the master won't even let us leave the mansion now, how are you supposed to have fun?

Thinking about my empty space, I realized there are so many things I need to buy, but I absolutely can't do without money. Being too poor isn't a good thing either; I guess I need to find a way to earn money. Otherwise, I'll be too constrained in everything I do.

Good Shadow, let's go find Big Brother, he'll definitely take us out!

Pulling Hua Ying along, they rushed to Gu Yunyang's Bamboo Green Garden! Gu Yunyang was practicing his sword when he saw them and immediately stopped and walked towards the stone table!

"Have a cup of tea. Why did you rush here so hastily? You don't act like a proper young lady at all!" Gu Yunyang handed over the tea with a doting smile.

Oh my! She really likes this older brother, what should she do? His doting and handsome manner is so sickeningly sweet! Big brother, can you take me out to play? You promised me last time!

But your father won't let you go out!

Gu Lingxi shook Gu Yunyang's arm and said coquettishly, "Just take me there secretly, okay? Here, take this as your reward for taking me out!" She pulled out a packet of space spirit tea that she had prepared in advance from her pocket. This was guaranteed to make her older brother want more after drinking it!

This is?

You'll know once you try it. Ying'er, go and brew another pot of water!

The moment the boiling water poured over the tea leaves, Gu Yunyang felt instantly refreshed, his eyes widening with curiosity as he stared at the tea in his hand! What kind of tea was this? He could already sense its extraordinary nature even before taking a sip!

Gu Lingxi smiled and urged, "Big brother, you should try it!"

The aroma filled the air, and the boiling water, when poured onto the lips, left a lingering sweetness. The restlessness from the martial arts practice instantly subsided, and the long-stalled High Profound Second Rank cultivation, which had been stalled for so long, showed signs of a breakthrough! Gu Yunyang was overjoyed. His cultivation, which had remained stagnant for a year despite taking three Purple Profound Pills monthly, was now showing signs of a breakthrough. After another cup of spiritual tea, a surge of profound energy rushed upwards, and he broke through! Hahaha! I broke through, Xi'er! What is this? It's amazing! It's even better than the Purple Profound Pills! Where did you get it?

"Don't get excited, brother! It's just tea! Xi'er thought it tasted good, so I brought it for you to try. It's a plant I accidentally ate after falling off a cliff that day. I thought it could save my life and tasted pretty good, so I secretly brought it back. Xi'er doesn't know what it is!" Gu Lingxi made up a story without blushing or skipping a beat.

Gu Yunyang smiled indulgently at Gu Lingxi! This little girl was making things up so mischievously, thinking he didn't know that such precious spiritual tea couldn't be obtained so easily? Oh well! Anyway, he didn't want to investigate further, so he pretended to believe her. Our Xi'er has truly turned misfortune into blessing! Since you thought of your brother first when you had such a good thing, then your brother will reluctantly agree to take you out to play for a while. But you have to be good and not run around everywhere! Otherwise, I won't care if Father comes looking for trouble!

"Okay, big brother! Wait a moment while I go change!" With that, he dashed out like the wind!

Half an hour later, on the bustling street!

A girl in white, a girl in purple, and a little maid walked one after the other through the bustling street!

The little girl, carrying large bags and small packages, followed breathlessly after the young man in purple! The young man in white followed behind them, paying the bill with a look of affection!

Young master! Young master! Young…master! Slow down! Even Ying'er can't catch up with you!

Hearing the shouts behind her, Gu Lingxi paid no heed, excitedly weaving through the crowd and looking around! She held a candied hawthorn in her hand, eating it nonstop! Stepping into this bustling market, she felt a sense of unreality, as if she had entered another world! Looking at the flowing crowds and listening to the noisy hawking, she felt as if she didn't belong in this world! But with Gu Lingxi's adaptability, that was only for a moment; she was now completely immersed in it!

"Big brother, hurry up! Look at this, this is really beautiful!" Gu Lingxi pointed excitedly at a sugar figurine stall, looking left and right.

Gu Yunyang, dressed in flowing white robes, said, "Alright, I'll buy whichever one Xi'er wants!"

Gu Lingxi rubbed her hands together happily! "Hehe! I want this, this, and this too!" Gu Yunyang paid with a look of doting affection.

Hua Ying looked distressed!

Miss, no, young master, Ying'er can't carry any more!

Gu Lingxi's eyes darted around! Hey? An opportunity had arrived! She thought of a way to get her brother away!

Brother, why don't you go rest at that teahouse across the street for a while? Ying'er and I are going to buy some things for girls! Here! Please take these things to the teahouse for Ying'er and wait for us. Ying'er and I will come find you in a bit!

Looking at the pile of things in his hands, Gu Yunyang chuckled! Alright! Be careful! Your brother is waiting for you at the teahouse!

"Got it!" Before he could finish speaking, he eagerly pulled Ying'er away and disappeared into the crowd!
