Chapter 201: Qing Pinghou and his wife are poor and crazy!

Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu came hand in hand, and each of them carried two large boxes in their hands.

four boxes? !
Qing Pinghou felt relieved: He still knows how to take things home, it seems that he is not so heartless.

Mrs. Qing Pinghou has sharp eyes: That seems to be... a food box?
They haven't come back for such a long time, and it's hard to come back, so why don't they just bring back some food?
The old couple, with different moods but with the same aspirations, smiled together: "I'm back! Sit down!"

"Father! Madame!"

Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu put down the box and greeted each other.

"Is this coming back from the palace?"

Qing Pinghou still wanted to show off his father's majesty, but when he thought that he wanted something from him, his expression softened a little.

"Yes." Qing Pinghou replied.

"What did His Majesty tell you?"

"This is a court secret, so it's not easy to explain it to my father."

On the way back, Qi Yunxiao obviously thought about how to answer him, so he immediately refused.

Qing Pinghou: "..."

Mrs. Qing Pinghou's eyes were a little red: "The prince can now touch the secrets of the court?!"

Jealousy made her voice tremble.

Qi Yunxiao glanced at Madam Qingpinghou: "Yes."

Mrs. Qing Pinghou: "It seems that the son is very important to His Majesty... I don't know if you need an assistant for your errand? Your younger brother is also grown up now. After all, we are a family..."

"Who to use and what to do, His Majesty has his own considerations, I don't want to talk too much."

Qi Yunxiao interrupted Mrs. Qing Pinghou's words, and she did not look at Mrs. Qing Pinghou at all.

Mrs. Qing Pinghou: "..."

Although he knew that Qi Yunxiao could not be relied on, the moment he was rejected, he still couldn't hide his disappointment and resentment.

Why didn't he give it a chance?

Obviously his relationship with the major families in the capital is not good, even if this opportunity is not given to his own family, others will not be grateful to him!
Wouldn't he be happy to see the Qingpinghou's mansion get up?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qing Pinghou felt uncomfortable: "I don't think any of the servants have brought you back this time. How about I give you a few maids, and you take them with you, and someone will do the daily chores?"

Qi Yunxiao: "It's not necessary, I've been traveling around all these years, and I'm used to living in the countryside, so I'm not used to being served."

Qing Pinghou and his wife: "..."

This refusal of the old couple had both been expected.

Qing Pinghou coughed: "Since you're back, let's stay at home."

Qi Yunxiao took a look at Qing Pinghou: "We are back this time, and we will not stay for a long time. The lady has to go to her mother's house for some things. I won't stay at home."

Qing Pinghou: "...Her natal family?"

Isn't she just a country woman?
Isn't her mother's family in Tongxin Mansion thousands of miles away?
Where did she come from her natal family in the capital?

Qingpinghou and his wife looked at each other in surprise, and Mrs. Qingpinghou asked in surprise, "Is it Qingyu's relative?"

Only then did Shen Qingyu come forward and reply: "Going back to Madam, it's my natal family. I just found out recently that my mother is the wife of the Duke of Wei, and I'm the only lady in the Duke of Wei's mansion..."

"Bang Dang!" It was the crackling sound of the teacup being taken down, and Mrs. Qing Ping Hou stood up with a bang: "What did you say?"

Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao looked at each other, since this matter has passed the bright road with the emperor, and he is going to the Duke of Wei's mansion, this matter cannot be concealed.

So Qi Yunxiao came forward to explain, explaining Shen Qingyu's life experience in a nutshell.

Qing Pinghou and his wife: "!!!"

"Wei Guogong and his wife have not been seen for many years, and they actually ran into you in Tongxin Mansion?"

What kind of shit luck is this? !
Shen Qingyu nodded in recognition, which made Mrs. Qing Pinghou red-eyed.

"Although Wei Guogong and his wife have not been seen for many years, the grain shops under their name have been operating very well in recent years, and they are all over the state capitals of Daqi..."

Mrs. Qing Pinghou became more jealous as she spoke, looking at Shen Qingyu's eyes, she almost wanted to throw a knife.

Shen Qingyu smiled gently and virtuously: "Yes, my mother told me that."

"Since you are the only daughter-in-law that Duke Wei's mansion has just recognized, what did Mrs. Wei Guo say about your marriage?" Mrs. Qing Pinghou asked with a frown.

Shen Qingyu glanced at Qi Yunxiao shyly: "There are already three children, so naturally my mother has nothing to say."

Mrs. Qing Pinghou: "..."

Is this what I'm asking you?

I'm asking you, now that you've been recognized, what does your mother think of your dowry?

Gritting her teeth, Mrs. Qing Pinghou decided not to turn the corner: "Then your mother...does she compensate you for the dowry?"

Shen Qingyu gave Mrs. Qingpinghou a slight look of surprise: "I grew up in the countryside, so I don't understand the rules of these wealthy families..."

"Madam knows that I am the legitimate daughter of Duke Wei's mansion, do you want to make up a dowry? Then ask my mother to make up a similar dowry?"

Mrs. Qing Pinghou: "..."

Who wants to make up a dowry?
Our family has no money to give your family a bride price!
Even if you want to give it, it's for your son Qi Yunheng who is about to get married!
However, after Shen Qingyu said this, Mrs. Qingpinghou also understood: Even if Weiguo's mansion is as rich as an enemy, it has nothing to do with Qingpinghou's mansion.

After all, our family has never given a betrothal gift, and we don't plan to make up for them.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Qing Pinghou became discouraged again.

She couldn't help looking at Qing Pinghou.

Qing Pinghou was a little dazed, obviously still immersed in the shock of Shen Qingyu's life experience.

"Lord Hou... Master Hou?"

Mrs. Qing Pinghou yelled twice, and Qing Pinghou came back to his senses, with a confused look on his face: "Ah?"

Ah for what?

Asking for money has nothing to do with you? !
Mrs. Qing Pinghou resisted the urge to curse, and smiled at him softly (stiffly): "We thought that the son married a country woman, and we didn't take it to heart, but now we know that it is Wei Guogong's only wife." My daughter, let me tell you, this is a happy event, and we should open an ancestral hall and tell our ancestors!"

"During the mid-autumn festival, the prince didn't come back, why don't you take advantage of today and let the prince go to the ancestral hall to offer incense, and tell the good news to the ancestors?"

Qing Pinghou glanced at Qi Yunxiao, and nodded belatedly: "It's right! It's right!"

Mrs. Qing Pinghou then asked the housekeeper to prepare.

After hearing the order, the butler, who had been in collusion with him for a long time, looked embarrassed: "Ma'am, have you forgotten? After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the house... was thieves (pawned), and all the gold and silverware used for the sacrifice were stolen... This requires the opening of an ancestral hall for offering sacrifices, and the gold and silverware must be purchased again!"

Mrs. Qing Pinghou immediately looked puzzled: "Oh... really... I forgot about this all of a sudden. Xiaoer, look, the family is struggling now, and I don't have that much money to buy it again. I don't know you..."

Qing Pinghou and his wife looked at Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu eagerly.

This is to recognize your wife's family status, why don't you pay? !
Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu looked at each other with contempt in their eyes: Qingpinghou and his wife, are you crazy? !
