Madam Bai's ability to scold others and act rudely was much sharper than that of Pearl, and she was also the 'Queen Mother'. If she wanted to act rudely and steal money, Liu Bagou could do nothing except sweating from his forehead!
So currently there is not a dime in the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, and all the money is in the hands of Queen Mother Bai. If you want to send people out to buy anything, you have to get money from Queen Mother Bai.
Now Liu Bagou is counting on Fang Dongquan to replenish the national treasury with the money he seized from Jiguan Mountain, Black Tiger Village, and Huanggui Mountain. Even in order to prevent Empress Dowager Bai from stealing money again, he told Fang Dongquan and the others in advance to give the money when he came back.
Give it directly to him and put it into the national treasury, and Queen Mother Bai must not be allowed to know about it.
If Empress Dowager Bai asked about it, she would just say that she didn't get the money and she couldn't bear it anymore. At worst, she would give a small part to Empress Dowager Bai, but the big part would be kept no matter what.
Otherwise, it would be inconvenient to even sell something. You can't just take money from Queen Mother Bai to buy everything!
It's just that Fang Dongquan and the others haven't come back yet, so the only one who can spend money to send people out to purchase during this period is Queen Mother Bai.
By the time Liu Bagou finished speaking and left, the sky was almost completely dark.
It's winter now and it gets dark very early. He felt his belly and felt hungry again, so Li Xuan walked back to the backyard.
However, when he returned to the backyard, he found that the atmosphere in the room today was a little unusual. First of all, after Pearl saw him coming in, although she helped him take off his coat as usual, the whole process was more complicated than before.
She was much colder, and even Li Xuan heard her snort slightly.
This girl seems to be in a bad mood. Could it be that those old ladies outside are irritating her again?
That's not right. This girl is so fierce. Except for Dong Yunyun and Empress Dowager Bai, the two harem bosses who can suppress her, other old women, maids and the like are not her opponents at all. She is the only one who bullies others.
Well, there is someone out there who can bully her.
If it is true, then Li Xuan is really curious, who is so brave and dares to mess with our young and lovely girl Zhuer!
But he soon discovered that not only Zhu'er was unhappy and was lukewarm towards him, but Miss Dong, who was gentle and virtuous in the past, was also a little emotional towards him today.
She didn't even call him during dinner, she ate it alone.
However, during the meal, he strictly followed the ancient tradition of eating without talking or sleeping without speaking, that is, he did not say a word to Li Xuan.
After receiving no response after saying hello for several times, Li Xuan also realized that something was wrong.
From the looks of it, it didn't seem like someone outside had offended them. Instead, it seemed like he had offended these two women. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ignored him.
But when did he offend these two little women?
Li Xuan thought carefully, no!
In the past month or two, he and Dong Yunyun have been getting along very well. Although the progress of their relationship is not as fast as riding a rocket, it is almost as fast as driving a car.
Even though she is still far away from a home run, when she occasionally pulls her little hand, Dong Yunyun no longer resists, but actively cooperates.
Sometimes Li Xuan would even give her a hug on purpose. Although she would resist, her resistance was usually not so resolute and she mostly gave in half-heartedly.
Basically, it's like the women of later generations who say no, but their legs clamp your waist hard. If you want to pull out, they won't!
Now the relationship between this pair of dogs and men, even in future generations, can be regarded as that of boyfriend and girlfriend.
Li Xuan was thinking about hitting a home run in the near future and trying to make her a real daughter-in-law of the old Li family before the Chinese New Year.
But why did Dong Yunyun suddenly become so cold today?
Are her relatives coming?
That's not right. Although this girl hides her menstrual period on weekdays, Li Xuan is not a little kid who doesn't understand anything. The two of them live in the same room every day. If they just observe and pay attention on weekdays, they can probably calculate her period.
It's her menstrual period, so she probably hasn't been here these days.
There must be a story here, and it seems to be a story that is not very friendly to me.
After running through many speculations in his mind, Li Xuan finally asked tentatively: "What's wrong today? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
If she answers no, then 100%, she is definitely angry, and the anger is directed at herself.
As for why? Don’t ask, women are like that!
Dong Yunyun raised her head and glanced at Li Xuan, then said lightly: "No!"
Sure enough, Miss Dong was really angry with herself.
After confirming the facts, Li Xuan was a little confused. I didn't offend you. Why are you angry with me for no reason?
Originally, Li Xuan wanted to ask a few more questions to see if he could get something out of him. At least he had to understand why Miss Dong was angry, otherwise Li Xuan would be unjustly accused.
It's a pity that Miss Dong didn't give him this chance at all. As soon as he said these words, she put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm full, I'll go back to my room first!"
Then get ready to get up!
Seeing this, Li Xuan still didn't know. If this made her go back to the room full of anger, Li Xuan wouldn't expect to be treated like a beautiful girl warming her shoulders with warm wine in the next few days.
Being an emperor in this mountain valley is so hard, Li Xuan only has the pleasure of falling in love with Dong Yunyun, a beautiful woman. He usually holds her hand and occasionally teases her, which can always dilute his worries about the future.
of many fears.
If this little bit of fun is gone, how can I continue to be the emperor of the valley?
He immediately stretched out his hand and took her hand: "What's wrong? Is someone bullying you?"
"No one bullies me!" Dong Yunyun replied calmly.
Damn, this anger is really big, Li Xuan murmured in his heart, thinking about how to respond. Should he tell her directly and ask her why she was angry with him, or should he continue to make insinuations?
The former is a bit risky. If something goes wrong, you will have to break up and make things worse. The subsequent home run plan will be delayed, and it may even be postponed indefinitely.
For the latter, judging from Dong Yunyun's appearance, he probably refuses to say it. And if he doesn't even know the reason, how can he resolve this disaster? If he cannot resolve this conflict and allows it to continue, it will cause
As the cracks get bigger and bigger, the final home run plan will also become more difficult.
If Dong Yunyun or any woman knew that Li Xuan was calculating various gains and losses in his mind at this moment, using rational thinking to try to find the best solution.
It is estimated that they will all go crazy instantly: "You bastard, Li Xuan, you scumbag, when I am angry, just coax me, why do you do so much and have nothing to do!"
