Marrying a royal playboy and becoming a glamorous matriarch

After ordering, Wei Lanxin returned to her usual seat to wait.

Soon, the waiter brought the food up and placed it on the table.

There weren't many customers in the shop at the moment, so the waiter, having nothing to do, gathered with the other people upstairs, carrying a tray and chatting and laughing.

But his gaze kept drifting towards Wei Lanxin.

Wei Lanxin naturally noticed this as well, and felt that these people were acting strangely, as if they were talking about her behind her back.

But she was so hungry that she didn't care about anything else and just ate big mouthfuls of food.

However, after she had eaten half of it, she saw those people still pointing at her, talking and laughing.

Wei Lanxin rolled her eyes, slammed her chopsticks on the table, pointed at the waiter and said, "Hey, come here."

The waiter quickly stepped forward, "Madam, what is it?"

Wei Lanxin's eyes gleamed with annoyance, and she asked with disdain, "What are you talking about?"

The waiter chuckled and said, "It's just some funny stories."

Wei Lanxin snorted: "Don't think I don't know what you're talking about! Gossiping about others behind their backs, I'll have my sister fire you."

"Oh my, you've got quite the nerve."

The waiter wasn't intimidated at all and said leisurely, "We're worlds apart. You're just a poor relative of our master, a distant relative. You're miles away, yet you insist on clinging to our master and sucking his blood, eating and drinking for free every day."

Even if they were her own parents, they wouldn't let their married daughter come back to visit every day and waste food, would they?

Upon hearing this, Wei Lanxin felt a surge of resentment and gritted her teeth in anger.

"Who's eating and drinking for free? I'm just short on cash right now, so I'm paying for the meal today."

Upon hearing this, the waiter sneered disdainfully, "Alright, that'll be nineteen taels of silver in total."

Wei Lanxin's eyes widened suddenly, filled with disbelief.

"What costs nineteen taels? Aren't these meals free?"

The waiter pointed to the braised lion's head meatballs and said, "This braised lion's head meatballs uses precious ingredients and is simmered in broth that has been stewed overnight. It is clearly priced at nineteen taels of silver. Are you going to renege on the price, madam?"

Wei Lan was shocked and angry, but being poor, he couldn't help but feel guilty and blurted out, "How can it be so expensive? You Qianyu Tower really know how to rip people off!"

The waiter rolled his eyes: "If you don't have money, just say so. Our boss doesn't allow us to pursue this matter, which is to tolerate your poor relative."

Wei Lanxin was even angrier and could no longer swallow her anger.

"Alright, alright, wait for me to get the money!"

Wei Lanxin was furious and went straight to the accountant's workshop to find the eldest prince.

The eldest prince was in a bad mood at the moment, because he had overheard his colleagues gossiping behind his back and was feeling sullen.

He kept telling himself: Everyone talks about others behind their backs.

On the one hand, I couldn't help but feel angry: Some of the words were so harsh, how could they even utter them?

Just then, a colleague came to report that Wei Lanxin had arrived.

The eldest prince's mood instantly worsened.

He felt the probing gazes of his colleagues falling on him again.

Although he didn't speak, the sarcasm and mockery in his eyes didn't diminish in the slightest.

But Wei Lanxin came again, and the eldest prince clenched his wrist tightly, his voice gloomy.

"What is she doing here again?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Wei Lanxin barged into the fortifications room.

Wei Lanxin said angrily, "I need to talk to you, and they dare to stop me? You're not acting like a leader at all; no one takes you seriously."

The eldest prince gave her a cold look, his eyes filled with icy coldness, and hurriedly pulled her outside, not wanting his colleague to look at her again.

The longer she stayed at this moment, the more humiliating it felt.

However, Wei Lanxin remained unmoved and anxiously said, "Isn't today the day for distributing monthly allowances? Give me the allowance."

Wei Lan was both anxious and impulsive, wishing she could immediately take the silver and throw it in the waiter's face.

But the eldest prince's expression froze upon hearing this.

He hadn't told Wei Lanxin about using his monthly allowance to pay off his previous debts.

A look of hesitation immediately appeared on his face.

Seeing that he was being hesitant and refusing to give her the money, Wei Lanxin became even more anxious and urged him repeatedly, "Where's the money? Give it to me quickly!"

As she spoke, she reached out and began to grope the eldest prince's body.

This action was highly inappropriate, and even more eyes were being cast this way.

Whether out of curiosity, surprise, or simply a desire to watch the excitement, they all find it fascinating.

The eldest prince instantly felt like he was being pricked by thorns.

It seemed as if I could hear the mocking voices ringing in my ears again, deafeningly loud.

He shoved Wei Lanxin away abruptly, gritting his teeth and roaring, "Enough! What are you doing?"

Wei Lanxin looked aggrieved.

"What do you mean, 'what am I supposed to do'? Where's your monthly allowance?"

Seeing that the two were arguing, their colleagues quickly stepped forward to mediate.

Liu Fan, who was afraid of his wife, then explained on behalf of the eldest prince: "Wife, please stop arguing. Today, our steward did not receive his monthly allowance."

Upon hearing this, Wei Lanxin's eyes flashed with disbelief, and she hurriedly asked, "Everyone else receives a monthly allowance, but you don't. What's going on?"

The eldest prince's face tightened, and he said in a deep voice, "Go back first, and I'll explain to you later."

However, Wei Lanxin was not about to leave at this moment; the waiter was still waiting for her to pay him.

If she doesn't give us money today, we'll truly be seen as a poor relative who's just trying to freeload.

Wei Lanxin persisted, pressing, "Xiao Yu, give me the money quickly, I really need it urgently. Is it that they won't give you your monthly allowance? I'm going to find Wei Qingrou, they're really being unfair."

After saying that, she turned to leave.

The eldest prince hurriedly grabbed her, saying, "You mustn't go. It's my decision not to go."

These words instantly ignited a fire of anger in Wei Lan's heart.

Her family was already so poor they couldn't even afford to eat, and she was desperately needing money to save her life. Yet the eldest prince casually said that he didn't want the few dozen taels!

Wei Lanxin's face flushed red, and she burst into a tirade of curses.

"You're such a pain in the ass! You're so poor you can't even afford to eat, why are you pretending to be rich?"

"You're just an accountant. They won't share a single penny of their profits with you, yet you refuse even your monthly wages, giving away favors for nothing?"

One sentence after another, Wei Lanxin unleashed her full power, showing no mercy.

The eldest prince was so ashamed that he wished he could dig a hole in the ground and hide.

He felt a buzzing in his ears, as if an earthquake had struck, and the sky was falling and the earth was sinking.

In an instant, the anger in my heart burst forth like a dam breaking.

"Snapped!"

The eldest prince used all his strength, channeling all his anger into his palm, and slapped Wei Lanxin hard across the face.

"Shut up!"

Wei Lanxin staggered, like a butterfly with broken wings, and suddenly fell to the ground.

The eldest prince's hands trembled, his heart pounded, and a surge of anger swept through his body, burning countless orifices all over his body, sending chills through him.

"Get out! Get out!!"

Wei Lanxin covered her face and burst into tears, her tears flowing freely, her whole body aching as if being torn apart.
