Chapter 7 Take away Lu Shangxuan’s banknotes
Seeing that Dou Lianyi didn't pursue what happened just now, Lu Shangxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

His face was gentle, his tone was much softer, and he coaxed in a low voice: "Ms. Lian, we are a family. No, I am in some trouble now. You will definitely help me, right?"

"What's the trouble?"

Dou Lianyi opened her eyes innocently, neither should it be good nor should it be bad.

"It's like this, Lian Niang, you also know that I just joined the Chamber of Commerce some time ago and want to do some business with the shopkeepers, but I don't have enough silver on hand."

Speaking of this, Lu Shangxuan paused deliberately and secretly glanced at Dou Lianyi's expression.

Usually, whenever he opens his mouth like this, this silly woman will automatically hand over her dowry with both hands.

Dou Lianyi smiled coldly in her heart. She thought that something could make this man put aside his beloved sister temporarily.

Just when Lu Shangxuan thought that Dou Lianyi would immediately go back to the house to get the keys to the warehouse, he heard her say in a confused tone: "But I don't have that much silver on hand?"

"how can that be!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Shangxuan immediately became anxious, and his voice immediately became louder.

He clearly remembered that when Dou Lianyi got married, the gold, silver and jewelry that filled the warehouse were so abundant that it almost dazzled his eyes. How could it be possible that they were all gone after so long?
Dou Lianyi hesitated before speaking: "Although I don't have any cash, I still have some shops, but..."

"Just what?"

Lu Shangxuan didn't realize it was fake and quickly asked.

No matter if there is a shop, it is the Prime Minister's shop. He can make a lot of money in a minute by selling it.

"It's just that because I was eager to make up for the government's shortfall, I mortgaged it at a low price. It's really that Lian Niang is useless and can't help you."

Dou Lianyi lowered her eyes, her voice mixed with a little sob, as if she was anxious to help her husband solve the dilemma but was helpless.

Seeing this made Lu Shangxuan's heart tighten. He knew that Dou Lianyi had always admired him, and it was absolutely impossible for him to lie to him.

Thinking of this, Lu Shangxuan couldn't help but have a headache.

Before Lu Shangxuan could think of a good idea, Dou Lianyi continued to whisper: "By the way, I mortgaged all the shops to my father's friend Lin Bo. It would be great if I still have some savings in my hand now. I think they would be willing to trade with me at the original price for my father’s sake.”

"Yes! Niang Lian, you are right. They definitely don't dare to betray the reputation of the Prime Minister." Lu Shangxuan's eyebrows suddenly widened, he clapped his hands and smiled at Dou Lianyi and said: "Although I don't have enough cash on hand, There are many, but there are still some, let’s go and redeem Lian Niang’s shop!”

After that, Lu Shangxuan turned around and went back to his room to take out the banknotes he had hidden. He was about to ask Dou Lianyi to go with him, but he saw Dou Lianyi hesitated and said hesitantly: "I'm afraid the redemption of the shop this time It’s not convenient for you to show up together.”

"Why?"

Lu Shangxuan was stunned for a moment, and a hint of suspicion emerged from his eyes.

However, Dou Lianyi replied with a natural expression: "You don't know something. Uncle Lin asked me before if I was not living well in the Prince's Mansion. Otherwise, why would I mortgage all the shops."

"What? Such a thing happened? Then Lian Niang, what did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Shangxuan suddenly panicked, his expression became unnatural, and he stared at Dou Lianyi unblinkingly.

No matter how false his feelings for Dou Lianyi were in the Prince's Palace, they could never be spread outside. "Of course I'm telling the truth," Dou Lianyi replied thoughtfully, a cold light flashed across his eyes, "How could I forget how nice you are to me on weekdays? But I spent a lot of time at that time It took a while to get Uncle Lin to dispel his suspicions. If you go with me to redeem the shop, I'm afraid that when Uncle Lin asks you, it will be difficult for you to explain to my father."

Lu Shangxuan really didn't know there was a problem. When he thought that if the Prime Minister found out that his daughter-in-law was selling her dowry to support the county prince's palace, he would probably be stripped of his skin.

Thinking of this, Lu Shangxuan's back trembled, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He quickly handed over the stack of banknotes in his hand to Dou Lianyi, and said with a flattering face: "Then I still have to Thank you, Lian Niang, for taking this trip. I will wait for your good news at the house, Lian Niang."

"We are a family. There is no need to be so polite. It is Lian Niang's job to share your worries and solve your problems."

Dou Lianyi lowered her eyes and took the thick stack of banknotes. She was already happy in her heart, and she still had to be virtuous and considerate on her face.

After pretending to be in love with Lu Shangxuan, Dou Lianyi excused herself and returned to the house because she was not feeling well.

In the yard, Bai Zhi had already prepared sweet soup. When she saw Dou Lianyi coming over with a stack of banknotes and humming a tune, she hurriedly went up to meet her and asked with concern: "Young madam, are you and the young master treating yourself like this?" Do you want all your dowry back?"

"No, this is just the interest on my dowry," Dou Lianyi sat down and threw the banknotes on the table with a twinkle in her eyes, "After all, the Lu family owes me more than that."

Although Bai Zhi didn't know what happened, she could see that the previous sadness was gone from the young lady's brows.

She didn't ask any more questions, but stood quietly aside while Dou Lianyi drank the sweet soup.

"Young lady, I still remember that you said before that eating sweets will make you feel better."

"Ah."

Dou Lianyi pursed her lips and smiled. The rose soup in front of her was filled with osmanthus honey and sprinkled with mint leaves to make it sweet. Drinking it made people feel refreshed.

There will be no need for sweets in the future, and there will be plenty of things to do to make her feel better.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Dou Lianyi was awakened by the sound of conversation coming from outside the yard.

"Bai Zhi, what's going on outside?"

Dou Lianyi simply stood up, lifted the gauze hanging beside the bed, and asked loudly while putting on her shoes.

After a while, Bai Zhi hurriedly opened the door and ran into the house, replying: "Young madam, the young master is anxious to see you outside."

Lu Shangxuan?
Dou Lianyi frowned slightly, her thoughts spinning like lightning.

I came to see her so early, maybe because I couldn't sleep the whole night after I handed her the banknote yesterday.

Thinking of this, Dou Lianyi smiled clearly and said slowly: "He is in a hurry, but I am not in a hurry. Let's talk about it after I have breakfast."

"Okay, young lady."

After the maid at the door walked away, Bai Zhi dressed up Dou Lianyi and asked puzzledly: "Young Madam, why did the Young Master get up at this hour today? Don't you always have to wait for Young Madam to bring you breakfast? ?"

Dou Lianyi's eyes changed slightly after hearing Bai Zhi's words.

After she married into the county prince's palace in her previous life, Dou Lianyi did it just because Lu Shangxuan wanted to eat the dishes she cooked.
