Chapter 160: Borrow the Guqin
Gently adjusted his sitting posture, exhaled secretly, and then nodded, "Yes, about my mother, you should have done a survey, right?" ”
Otherwise, how would he know where his mother was buried? Thinking of going to her mother's grave that day to pay respects, she was still a little moved in her heart, no matter what the purpose of returning to the county palace that day, he finally gave her enough face as a princess.
"Your mother is just a woman, is this king using it to investigate? However, before marrying you, I did some understanding of the county king, the county king is very good at business, and the inheritance left by his ancestors is rich, so compared to my Chen Wangfu, it should be more wealthy, right? ”
"I'm not interested in the family's possessions at all."
"What if I'm interested?" His eyes suddenly froze, and he looked at Gu Yue, "Don't you think it's strange?" There are so many famous ladies in the imperial city, I don't marry anyone, but I marry you. ”
"Oh, it turns out that the prince married me for the dowry." The tone was light, as if talking about a topic that had nothing to do with her. If, according to Helian Yu, the wealth of the Junwang Mansion has surpassed that of the Chenwang Mansion, then her dowry should be considered a meagre one.
I remember that Xiao Qi said that her dowry jewelry and clothing have a total of ten boxes, and there are 500 acres of fertile land on the outskirts of the Imperial City, which had been transferred to Helian Yu before she married into the Chenwang Mansion.
But she also heard Xiao Qi say that the county king's mansion received a very rich dowry from the Chenwang Mansion, including ten buckets of pearls, ten taels of gold, ten boxes of calligraphy and painting antiques, and ten cars of precious clothes, which far exceeded her dowry.
She began to understand why Helian Yu treated her as air when she first got married, she originally thought that she was marrying a cash cow, but she didn't expect to meet a stingy father-in-law, and her hopes became very empty, so he vented all the resentment in his heart on her bride.
Come to think of it, it's really ironic, the Gu family's business is all over the country, and the family wealth can rival the famous Chenwang Mansion, but when you marry your daughter, the dowry is less than the bride price, so it can be said that you took advantage of the opportunity to marry your daughter and made a fortune......
Gu Yiran is really a budget-conscious businessman!
The little bit of family affection left in my heart was gone at this moment. Gu Yiran only thought about his infinite scenery as King Chen's father-in-law, and never thought about his daughter's situation in King Chen's mansion, if he really felt sorry for his daughter, he should at least prepare a rich dowry for his daughter, with the dowry as a bargaining chip, his daughter's waist in her husband's house was also straighter.
The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and a touch of sarcasm was crossed, "The prince must have been disappointed in the end, I thought I would bring a rich dowry, but I didn't expect that there would be no more bride price, right?" The prince has made a loss-making deal, in fact, this can't be blamed on our ancient family, have you forgotten that our ancient family has been in business for generations, and everything will be done with interests first. ”
Gu Yiran disregards family affection, and it is shameful to put interests first, but what about Helian Yu, it's not much better, right? Marrying a wife is really concerned about the property of the wife's mother's family, which is even more despicable to say.
That disdainful gaze made Helian Yu's heart very unhappy, and he suddenly put down the teacup in his hand, and the bottom of the cup touched the tabletop, and there was a crisp sound of "bang......
His cold eyebrows froze, a cold light flashed at the bottom of his eyes, and the corners of his lips raised indifferently, "Do you think this king married you for your dowry?" ”
"This is what the prince himself said." Although she was nervous for a while, she still suppressed it, her face was calm, and a look of determination flashed in her watery eyes, was it wrong to say it according to his meaning?
Helian Yu realized that she had misunderstood, and blamed herself for not making it clear, leaning back on the chair, trying to calm her mood, and then said slowly: "This king married you for the wealth of the county king's mansion, but it has nothing to do with your dowry." ”
"What's that about?" The eyes flashed, the red lips were slightly raised, shaped like a crescent moon, and the tone was full of provocation.
"This is the king's own business, and I don't need to explain it to you." His eyes were sharp, and his brows were furrowed.
"I didn't ask the prince to explain to you, but the prince wanted to chat." There was a hint of ridicule on his exquisite face, and he himself was embarrassed to say it, so naturally he wouldn't explain.
Speaking of chatting, he remembered that he had digressed, coughed lightly, then stood up and walked directly to the guqin.
The slender fingers gently plucked the strings, and the melodious sound flowed from his fingertips......
It turns out that he is also proficient in music.
A man is good-looking, has a noble status, can draw, can play the piano, and has a good martial arts, he should be close to perfection, right? But he has so many stains on his character......
Is it true that no one is perfect?
Just when she felt sorry for his back, she suddenly heard him say indifferently: "This guqin was left to you by your mother-in-law, right?" Is it okay if I want to borrow it for a few days? ”
His request was unexpected, could it be that he had stayed in Liuliyuan for so long, just for this guqin? If she could lend him the guqin and let him leave, she would be willing to be generous.
But this guqin is not hers, and the guqin is a very meaningful thing for Gu Yue, even if you want to borrow it, you have to ensure the safety of the guqin.
"There should be a lot of good pianos in this palace, right? If you really have Yaxing who plays the piano, you can take back the guqin that I prepared before. ”
Helian Yu could already hear her refusing again, and she didn't seem to be submissive to him once.
"Anyway, it's also a husband and wife, can't you borrow it?" His eyes stared at Gu Yue deeply, with a warning meaning, as if to say: If you are refusing, I will rob it directly.
"But not long ago, you made it clear that our well water does not interfere with river water."
The corners of his lips hooked coldly, "Have you forgotten?" Your princess, your things are your king's things, this king uses his own things, what point does it offend you? ”
His reasoning is simply strong words, and reasoning with him is strong words.
"Now that you've decided, is it necessary to say hello to me?"
She was full of anger when she said this, what did he want this guqin for? Although the guqin is precious, it is not a priceless treasure.
"This king knows that this guqin is your beloved thing, and it is also appropriate to inform him." Helian Yu said shamelessly.
After speaking, he had already picked up the guqin and planned to leave.
Gu Yue breathed a sigh of relief, he was finally leaving, and she could be relieved.
But after all, the guqin was left by his mother, even if he took it, he had to ask for clarification.
She got up and stopped him, "It doesn't matter if you lend you this piano, tell me why you borrowed it and when you will return it?" ”
