Chapter 2692 Being a concubine
"Don't think about spending the money right away. I won't give it to you if it's too fast. After all, Ben Hou always advocates thrift and opposes extravagance and waste."
"Your third request, you should also give up this idea. The official positions of the courtiers are all spelled out by themselves, or they are appreciated by His Majesty and are promoted to officials. My grandchildren are also all Relying on his own ability, he has been born and died on the battlefield, and he has achieved today's achievements."
"If your son wants to be an official, he can take the imperial examination, whether it is a literary test or a martial arts test. Otherwise, he will take out his talents. If the Marquis thinks they are talented, he will naturally recommend them to His Majesty."
"Okay, that's all Ben Hou said. If you agree, agree. If you don't agree, please leave."
Xiao Gongwei frowned and said, "Master Hou, you are too stingy, we are only two of us, what can we do with two more people living in the Hou residence?"
He never expected that the Marquis of Ning'an would say such a thing.
As long as his sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren live, they can't live there.
Lin Cuiying was immediately disappointed. It really was a pity that they went too far last time. The eldest princess also told the Hou Ye what they did last time, but she didn't let them live.
Knowing they weren't so over the top last time.
"Bold!" Princess Qihua angrily said: "How dare you say that the prince is stingy, slander the prince, come here, and immediately shoot these two out! Give this princess the two of them and drive them out of the capital, and they won't be allowed again in the future. Half a step into the capital!"
Xiao Man closed his eyes tiredly and didn't say a word of pleading.
Parents are really too much! It's all of their own making.
"Don't, don't, don't rush us." Xiao Gongwei immediately begged for mercy, saying: "Okay, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I know I shouldn't say that. The first request, we agreed, but We really don’t have much money, only fifty taels of silver, we have spent all of our food, drinks and entertainment in the city recently, things in the capital are really expensive, and the money is really worthless.”
"It's rare for us to come to the capital. There are so many things in the capital that we haven't seen in Donghai Mansion, especially the food at Tianhelou, Mingyuelou and Shunxin Restaurant, which we have never seen in our life. , it's normal for us to be interested."
He spent fifty taels of silver in just one month?
Did these two come to the capital to treat their son, or to play?
My son is like that, yet he still has the time to go to the restaurant to eat and drink. He is really heartless.
The Marquis of Ning'an said: "That's also your business, not Ben's business. Ben and you are just in-laws, and there is no obligation to pay for the two of you in the capital. It's impossible for you to give money whenever you want. Ben Hou's money is not easy to come by."
Xiao Gongwei was helpless, so he had to say again: "Then my granddaughter Xiao Liyun, even if you don't want her to be the main wife, then let her be the concubine, right? The three brothers, no matter whose concubines are."
Really, the richer people are, the more stingy they are, and the people in the Hou Mansion have been rewarded. Now they must be so rich that they are reluctant to spend even a little money on him!
Murong Zong said: "Being a concubine? Mr. Xiao, you are still not your granddaughter's grandfather. You don't do it in the main room, but let her be a concubine? Do you know how low the status of a concubine is?"
