"He's poor!" As Shi Anxia uttered these two deafening words, the entire magnificent hall seemed to tremble.
Precious calligraphy and paintings, elegant in their scent of ink. Colorful carpets, soft and exquisite. Rosewood carved tables and chairs, even the backs of the chairs are inlaid with valuable jade.
Rare antiques were displayed on the antique shelf. With Shi Anxia's eyes, some of them were priceless without having to be carefully examined. But they were just casually placed on the shelf as decorations.
In a word, this family is rich! Very rich!
One is poor, the other is rich...Based on Shi Anxia's understanding of his stupid father, he was probably attracted by the other person's money.
Unexpectedly, Madam Gu suddenly stood up, took two steps back, knelt down and kowtowed deeply to Shi Anxia, "I, a common woman, have deceived the princess, and I deserve to die."
Shi Anxia and Wei Cailing looked at each other, both showing surprise.
"Madam Gu, please stand up and talk." Shi Anxia said softly and winked at Bei Hui.
The latter understood and hurried forward to help Madam Gu up.
Madam Gu sat back in her chair with a face full of shame.
She has experienced countless ups and downs in her life, and she is able to bend and stretch, and speak differently to different people.
Originally, she had prepared herself to be bullied by the princess, after all, she was going to be someone's stepmother.
Unexpectedly, the princess not only did not attack her, but was surprisingly friendly to her.
Madam Gu could tell the sincerity of Shi Anxia's attitude. When she clearly said that she had an agenda in marrying Shi Chengxuan, he not only did not laugh at her, but actually gave her some advice.
She also revealed Shi Chengxuan's true situation one by one, which sounded like she wanted to break up a pair of lovers, but she inexplicably heard a hint that the princess was afraid that she would suffer.
Madam Gu felt extremely embarrassed facing this teenage girl. "I knew that you were no longer an official in the court, and I also knew that you had no property. I also knew that you had many concubines in your harem, and now one of your concubines just had an abortion."
Shi Anxia: "!!!"
No way! She knows everything and still acts stupidly? Why is her father worth anyone's attention?
Wei Cailing: “!!!”
It was shocking enough that her mother-in-law, Tang Chujun, was going to marry Emperor Mingde in the future. Who would have thought that her father-in-law was equally shocking, that he could make such a shrewd businessman so devoted to him?
It turns out that everyone in her husband's family is extraordinary!
Madam Gu presented a sandalwood box that had been prepared on the table, "Princess, this is the money my Gu family donated to Chang'an County for post-disaster reconstruction."
Shi Anxia opened it and saw a neatly stacked stack of silver bills. A rough calculation revealed that there were exactly 100,000 taels of silver.
One hundred thousand taels! Such a generous gift.
Madam Gu had not yet said how she had deceived the princess, and she went on to talk about something else. "In recent years, the imperial court's policies have become increasingly perfect, especially the support for merchants. Our Gu family has received many preferential treatments. In order to encourage merchants, the imperial court has also greatly reduced taxes. I am grateful from the bottom of my heart, and I have long wanted to do my best, but... I don't know who should I donate such a large sum of money to."
Shi Anxia understood.
