The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 44
After being assigned the pastries, except for Qingtao who was not in any mood, the other three girls all looked happy.

They don't often eat such exquisite cakes, especially the lotus shape, the petals of lotus powder, and the soft yellow core, like fairy fruit.

I can't bear to eat for a while.

"Seeing that the weather is getting colder, Madam sympathizes with us for not being easy to do, so it is four taels of silver per person." Xuemei said and took out the money box. There are four people in this room, and four taels of silver per person is 16 taels of silver.

Several people immediately lined up in a regular manner, waiting to receive the reward money.

Qingtao was the first one, and Xuemei put the weighed four taels of silver in a plain purse, and was a little cautious when handing it over.

She was a little afraid of Qingtao, and always felt that Qingtao was not easy to get along with.

After distributing the money, she asked everyone to disperse, Xuemei stretched herself, and went to the inner room with the small box with the remaining money in her arms.

"Your Majesty is so generous, it's more than my monthly salary." Dongqing held the heavy plain purse in her hand, so happy that she felt like she was floating when she walked.

Dong Xue also held her purse to her chest, looked at the sky while walking and said happily: "This year must be a good year."

"Yes, with this money, my mother's illness can also be treated with medicine." Qin Zhi held the purse tightly with both hands, feeling happy and excited in his heart.

Her mother has been ill for a long time, and besides treating her mother's illness, the monthly money has to be paid for by the whole family.

There are eight people in the family including her, four older brothers, one younger brother, and both parents rely on her to eat alone.

Seeing this, Dongqing restrained the smile on her face, and then pursed her lips as if in an ideological struggle.

In the end, he stuffed his purse to Qin Zhi, pretending not to care and said: "Take it, I have saved some money myself, it's important to treat your mother."

Dongqing is a family-born child, but her parents are gone, and she has become an orphan. She saves money so that she can marry into a good family in the future.

"This... Dongqing, I can't take yours!" Qin Zhi said and wanted to return it.

Dongqing moved away, hid behind Dongxue, squinted her eyes and said coquettishly, "If you don't hold it, I won't talk to you anymore."

"That's right, if I tell you to hold it, just take it. Where is the embarrassment?" Dongxue agreed, and after saying that, she took out some silver taels from her purse and forced it to Qin Zhi.

"You take it."

"Two sisters..." Qin Zhi had tears in his eyes for a moment, and he didn't know how to thank him, so he was about to kneel down to express his gratitude.

At this time, Qingtao came out from the hall, saw the three girls gathered together, and scolded: "Is there nothing to do?"

The three of them were startled like mice seeing a cat, and quickly turned around to face Qingtao, lowering their heads one by one.

Seeing this, Qingtao ordered: "The wind just picked up, Dongqing and Qinzhi, sweep up the fallen leaves in the yard, Dongxue, come with me to get our winter clothes."

"Yes."

The three of them went about their business in a proper manner. Before leaving, Qingtao turned around and said: "Your Majesty is asleep, please keep your voice down."

"Yes."

It wasn't until Qingtao left Shuanghuaju that Dongqing breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched her neck and looked out the door before saying, "This Qingtao girl is so strict and frightening."

Qin Zhi went to get the broom, and said, "Miss Qingtao used to be someone close to the prince, so she is naturally dignified."

"It's better to be Miss Xuemei, she is amiable."

This was heard by Xuemei who went out to pour out the soot. Although she didn't hear what was said before, she was still a little happy in her heart.

After all, this shows that the people in this courtyard have a good impression of her. She Xuemei is the most caring girl of the princess, and no one can take her position away.

If Qingtao dares to snatch...

Then she really has nothing to do with him.

After all, Qingtao seems to be smarter, more capable, and more dignified than her.

The more I think about it, the more I feel a little wronged.

Forget it, I grew up with the concubine no matter what, and my love is unmatched by others.

She is still confident enough in this regard.

As long as the princess is good, so is she.

Thinking of this, my mood suddenly improved, just in time for Xicheng to bring Xiaoyun from Yilanyuan.
