Chapter 126
  Ning Rourou was able to get so much money because her biological mother was Princess Jiahe, and she was already extremely wealthy.

but……

Others are different.

Especially this person--

Gao Yuelan.

The Gao family barely ranked among the third-rate military general families. Before working for Chu Lixuan, they were just an ordinary family and were not even qualified to enter the capital.

Even if he relies on his military exploits, he has the current general Gao.

But without the background of the major aristocratic families in the capital, the Gao family's life in the capital was a mess.

He casually took out a thousand taels of silver.

Not only Ning Rourou and others found it strange, but the other ladies sitting in the private room on the fifth floor listening to Gao Yuelan's words were also very surprised.

With their status and background, it would be okay to take twelve hundred taels, but if they really take out a thousand taels as a bet.

Forget it, His Highness King Abning.

Ab Ning Mu Qing...

That one thousand taels was undoubtedly wasted.

Gao Yuelan was actually willing to spend so much money just to boost Ning Muqing's momentum?
  Zuo Ziyue suddenly thought of something, looked at Xiao Ting and said, "It couldn't have been given by Brother Xiao, right?"

"How is that possible?" Xiao Ting's face flashed with uneasiness, and she immediately retorted, "How could my eldest brother give her money? Besides, my eldest brother has already given up on her."

Xiao Ting's eldest brother Xiao Yu fell in love with Gao Yuelan at first sight and once vowed not to marry anyone other than Gao Yuelan.

but……

Civil servants and military generals have always been incompatible with each other.

How could Xiao Yu, as the next King of Zhennan, marry the daughter of a third-rate military general.

Princess Xiushan would not allow it, and neither would the elders of the Xiao family.

"Miss Xiao, please don't misunderstand me." Gao Yuelan downstairs realized that these people had misunderstood her, and explained with a cold face, "Although my Gao family lacks background, after thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, now I am still Not short of this little money.”

Zuo Ziyue was not convinced and asked, "Then tell me how much money your family has."

"Anyway, it's enough to support me. There's no need to find a man to spend money on." Gao Yuelan said.

Ning Rourou never paid attention to other people, but this time her eyes glanced at Gao Yuelan, and she discovered that Gao Yuelan was wearing a phantom gauze skirt today, and the embroidery work on it came from the feather weaving workshop.

Yu Zhi Fang is the top clothing workshop in Beijing.

And if Gao Yuelan, who was wearing this outfit, stood with her, she would not be out of place. Children raised by military generals' families have a sense of sassiness and calmness about them, which is much softer and softer than those who grew up in fine clothes and fine food. Lots of atmosphere.

Ning Rourou's heart vaguely flashed with the subtle feeling of being compared.

Can anyone really make such a big difference overnight?

First, Ning Muqing suddenly resisted her, and now Gao Yuelan has also changed like this.

Ning Rourou didn't think about it and just said, "It's best for Miss Gao to think like this. Since the Gao family is so rich, Tianxiang Pavilion will definitely not refuse. Let's see who wins and who loses."

"Rourou, the Gao family is so poor. Maybe one thousand taels is all their family's money. Isn't it appropriate for us to do this?" Zuo Ziyue said sarcastically.

Xiao Ting became very angry when she thought of her elder brother's obsession with Gao Yuelan.

Zuo Ziyue sang along and mocked, "What's inappropriate?"

"She is just one of the daughters of the Gao family. She wants to secretly use the family's money to gamble. This is not a small amount. It is another matter whether General Gao will be angry to death if he knows this."

Xiao Ting glanced at Gao Yuelan and said with great contempt, "The daughters of these military generals' families just don't know how high the sky is. They think they can compare with Rourou. They only talk about a thousand taels, as if they don't take money as money." It looks like she will cry later."

Ning Rourou's smile hung on her face.

Although he didn't laugh directly, he obviously agreed with what Xiao Ting and Zuo Ziyue said. Gao Yuelan also had the same smile on her face.

Xiao Ting and Zuo Ziyue both seemed to be in great glory, but only a few people knew how dire these two families were now.

Especially for the Xiao family, Xiao Yu is the only son of King Zhennan. Everyone knows that the Taoist Emperor's refusal to order Xiao Yu to inherit the title of King Zhennan is a cultivation and test for Xiao Yu.

In fact, Gao Yuelan did see clearly that Xiao Yu was short-sighted and incapable. If it weren't for the blessing of the King of Zhennan who died in the battle, he would not even be able to retain the title of the crown prince.

Princess Xiushan looks great now, but how bad she is inside can only be seen clearly by those who understand her.

The Xiao family has now begun to be marginalized not only in terms of power, but also in terms of money. If it were not for relying on the family fortune left by the ancestors of Zhennan Wang, they would have fallen apart long ago.

Although Xiao Ting can still stand among the ranks of noble ladies in the capital.

But smart people know that the Xiao family is getting poorer year by year.

However, Xiao Ting still couldn't let go of her dignity. Even if she had to sell the dowry prepared for her by Princess Xiushan, she still had to maintain her appearance.

Not to mention asking Xiao Ting to take out a thousand taels of silver to bet, even if it is a hundred taels...

So it's no wonder that Xiao Ting was so disdainful when she knew Gao Yuelan could give out a thousand taels. In fact, she felt that Gao Yuelan was just like her, just trying to save face, so why did she overestimate her ability to compare with Ning Rourou.

"For Miss Xiao and Miss Zuo to sing along, it would be better to just say that I, Gao Yuelan, have no money and am deliberately pretending to be generous to go against you."

Gao Yuelan was not angry when she heard their conversation, and her voice sounded calmly.

Xiao Ting sneered and said, "Isn't that the truth?"

She didn't take Gao Yuelan and the Gao family seriously at all.

She is just the daughter of a third-rate military general.

I may not have the opportunity to see what a thousand taels of silver looks like in this life, so I dare to talk nonsense here.

"Gao Yuelan, don't think that now that Ning Muqing is the princess, you can follow the chickens and dogs to heaven. She has never regarded you as a sister. The same goes for Brother Xiao. If you take Prince Xiao's money, I advise you to return it as soon as possible. It is simply impossible for you to be with him, I advise you to..."

Before Zuo Ziyue finished speaking, his voice suddenly stopped.

I saw that the steward of Tianxiang Pavilion personally welcomed Gao Yuelan out and said, "The distinguished guest of Tianzi No. 1 has been welcomed from afar."

The steward respectfully invited Gao Yuelan to the fifth floor. When passing by Zuo Ziyue, Gao Yuelan stretched out her hand with a calm face. She unfolded the banknotes in the sachet in front of several people.

"Do you know what this is?" Gao Yuelan looked at several people with sarcastic eyes.

To be precise, what Gao Yuelan had in hand was not a banknote.

But a gold mine! !
  Gao Yuelan holds a gold mining ticket in her hand.

Ning Rourou, "..."

Zuo Ziyue, "..."

Xiao Ting, "...!!!"

Gao Yuelan mocked unceremoniously, "Where did you fools come from? Let alone one Xiao Yu, how can ten Xiao families be as rich as me?"

"This is fake! How could the mining rights of the gold mine be given to a woman!!"

Xiao Ting's face turned red and she subconsciously said respectfully.

Before he finished speaking, the steward of Tianxiang Pavilion said, "There are the national seals of Zhou, Qin and Chen on this, it is absolutely true!"

Xiao Ting, "...!!!"

Gao Yuelan continued to talk lightly, "It's just one thousand taels, is it a lot? Now I suddenly feel that for my status, I only bet one thousand taels, which is a bit too little. Otherwise, it should be five thousand taels."

Thinking of this, Gao Yuelan added, "Gold."
