Son, he doesn't want to divorce

Compared to Chao Wan's disbelief, Chao Li was very indifferent. After all, she knew Mrs. Chao well, so it was relatively easy to accept, let alone she had already prepared herself before coming here.

Mrs. Chao's words have two meanings, one is to get money from Chaoli, and the other is to remind Chaolu about taking away 3000 taels and how things are going.

If Mrs. Chao couldn't get a result from Chaoli, then Chao Lu would definitely come to ask her in person.

"What does grandma mean?" Chaoli asked knowingly.

Seeing that Chao Li didn't understand what she meant, Mrs. Chao's face was slightly gloomy and displeased.

I knew that this girl was stupid and couldn't understand these words.

"Girl, the mansion is short of money now, you live so well in the Hou's mansion, you can't see your grandmother and younger brothers and sisters starving, can you?" Mrs. Chao said tactfully.

Hearing this, Chao Li's eyes widened, and he looked at Mrs. Chao with a puzzled face.

"What does grandma mean by this? Could it be that our government has been unable to open the pot? If so, then I really should express it. It just so happens that I still have 20 taels of silver for myself here, which should be enough for the government's expenses for a month, grandma." How about taking it as an emergency first?" Chaoli said.

Chaoheng was the first to lose his composure, "20 taels? Are you sending beggars? Our mansion is not enough for 200 taels a month, let alone 20 taels for you. The imperial concubine of Beihou Mansion in Tangtang Town only has 20 taels of silver. , who will believe it? If you don’t want to subsidize the government, just say it, why are you so ironic about us?”

Originally, Chao Heng came here just to see if he could get some money from Chao Li.

In the past, Chao Heng never put Chao Li in his eyes.

Before she got married, Chaoli had always been responsive to Chaoheng's requests, and she also knew that she should treat her younger brother better. In the future, Chaoheng will always inherit the court.

If a married daughter does not get the support of her natal family, she will not have a good life in her husband's family.

It was also for this reason that Chao Heng felt that Chao Li would sacrifice him everywhere.

But it never occurred to him that Chaoli would change his previous attitude today.

Just 20 taels?

20 Two, he went out to eat a meal, and even a day to play was not enough!

Mrs. Chao's complexion was not good-looking, but she still remembered Chao Lu's advice and tried her best to look pleasant.

"You girl, why are you still making such jokes with your grandmother? Don't listen to your brother losing his temper. He is also in a hurry. You know, when the spring is coming soon, your brother will need to spend more, and the house can't make ends meet. It's also difficult." Seeing that Chaoli didn't show any displeasure, Mrs. Chao continued, "I know you are in trouble for the mansion, but you are still in the Hou's mansion, even if it is for face, the prince and the princess will not Embarrassing you. Now the government is in some difficulties, your second sister is about to get married, and there are a lot of places to spend money, so grandma came here to ask you, why don't you contribute to Zhen'er's marriage?"

Oh, it turned out that they wanted her to pay for Chaozhen's marriage.

"What grandma said is, how much effort do I need to put in?" Chaoli asked back.

When Mrs. Chao heard it, she thought it was funny, "Actually, it's not too embarrassing for you, 1000 taels is about the same."

1000 two?

Is this still not difficult?

Chao Li chuckled, Mrs. Chao really could speak, she really treated herself like a dish.

"I'm afraid my grandmother is joking with me. My monthly bill in the Hou's Mansion is only 50 taels. The second sister is married, and the grandmother only asks for 1000 taels. It seems that I think too highly of me. I'm sorry, I don't have so much money, why don't I Let Second Sister wait for me for four or five years." Chaoli replied flatly.

It's not that there are no, it's just that there is and I don't want to give it.

This time, Old Madam Chao changed her expression.

"Big girl, you are going too far. You are obviously rich but you don't want to give back to the mansion. It's not that you won't return it. When your younger brother is the number one scholar in high school and has an official position, it's only 1000 taels. Grandma won't I'll give it to you." The old lady said with a sullen face.

"Grandmother, no granddaughter." Chaoli's expression remained indifferent.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Chao has already seen that Chaoli has no intention of giving money, 20 taels is just like what Chaoheng said to send beggars.

She had inquired about it a long time ago, Chaoli was deeply loved by the Empress Dowager, not to mention the Emperor's reward, so there must be a lot of money in her hands.

Thinking of her majestic grandmother, but this girl is unwilling to give even 1000 taels, which is really unfilial.

"Grandmother, forget it, now that the elder sister is married into a noble family, she is no longer the elder sister we are familiar with, and has long looked down on us." Chao Heng Yinyang said strangely.

Hearing this, Old Madam Chao's complexion became even uglier.

However, Chao Li suddenly laughed, "I didn't expect that I would have such great fun when I go back to my residence today, it's finally not in vain."

"Chaoli, what do you mean!" Chaoheng snorted coldly.

"It's really interesting. Two people asked me what I mean today. Why are so many people unable to understand the words? My meaning is very simple. You are singing for me." Zhao Li smiled gently.

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Chao only felt a wave of anger rushing to Tianling Gai.

And Chao Heng's eyes were red with anger, if he didn't still have some sense in him, he might have already attacked Chao Li.

"Presumptuous! Big girl, how do you talk! Today I was nice to you, but you are so disrespectful to me, don't be afraid that I will spread the matter and make you lose face!" The old lady Chao was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. .

"If grandma wants to spread the word, let's spread it. Anyway, I won't be afraid. It doesn't matter if it spreads. I want to know what it would be like for others to know that grandma wants money from her married granddaughter and threaten her with it. What kind of expression? Tsk tsk tsk, does it mean that my grandmother is shameless, or that I am not filial? Did my grandmother forget that I have married into the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and now I have the character 'Gu' on my head, so I am no longer from the court? , also, grandma is old, she may not remember these things clearly, and she thought she was an old lady who could climb on top of me and domineering. If grandma really has no money, I suggest that the big gold chain around your neck can If you pawn it, you can exchange it for a lot of money.”

After Chao Li finished speaking with a smile, the old lady leaned back so angry that she almost fainted.

Chao Wan was dumbfounded, and felt more and more that she would have a good life with her elder sister. Look at her mouth, she really didn't let her grandmother get half of it.

Well, I have to learn from my eldest sister.

"You, you unfilial thing, I know you are a white-eyed wolf! The court raised you up, and you repay us like this. Now that the court has no money, you are not even willing to give it!" The old lady pointed towards Chaoli.

Chao Li's smile remained the same, and he felt that Mrs. Chao was not good enough, so she should add more fire.
